VOL. 79 — NO. 52 — PHONE 878-3141 PINCKNEY, MICHIGAN — WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 26, 1962 SINGLE COPY 10 iittHiffiffniiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiniiinnnniiiifiiiic EDITORIAL ! USLOn Livingston County received a shock in the early fall when it learned the Board of Supervisors had approved airport. > Ever since, the matter has been in a state of turmoil. Why? For the simple reason that the board is not convinced this county needs an airport. Why then did they approve the $4,500 ? Was it pressure? Anybody's guess is a good answer. • * * Then came step number two. The board decided not to include any money in the 1963 budget for development of the airport. Businessmen, who feel the county needs air facilities, descended on the board with the result that $20,- 000. was put in the budget and an airport commission "Was established. Step Three. The commission decided the Howell Airport site should be developed and ordered engineers to draw up a master plan, without consulting the board. It is estimated that it will cost over one-quarter of a million dollars to develop this project with the aid of state and federal matching funds. How much will it cost to operate the facility after the county has it? Figures are still much a matter of conjecture. Does Livingston County need an airport? Or does it need better roads first? Does Livingston County REALLY want an air* port? Genoa Township doesn't. Supervisor John Seim Bats his constitutuents say put it some place else. How does the rest of the county feel? Is it being "backward" not to want an airport ? One thing is certain: Before this matter goes further and gets into a deeper muddle the residents here and their representatives — the board of supervisors — should be definitely committed to the idea that Livingston County MUST have an airport. Without this solidarity, a lot of money will be wasted, a lot of idle talk will be engendered, while other projects suffer.

Mill Street, where Mrs. Clarke raised her fine family of seven. Then, as "they grew wings and left the nest," the big 11- room home became a burden to Mrs. Clark, and last June her sons, Charles, Thomas, Jerry, Dennis, and Frances, and sonin- law, Ray Moriarity, armed with hammers and saws, and what have you, began to build this home. It has five rooms, a bath, full basement and garage. No one should put forth such effort as these boys have for their mother, without some acknowledgement of a big job, so very well done!!

GtAJTD BXTEK HOWELL No. 80 m a series about the proposed new Michigan constitution, prepared by the Constitution staff. Additional articles will appear in subsequent weeks. A most effective tool for study of the proposed new Michigan constitution has been issued in recent weeks by the Citizens Research Council of Michigan and is now available without charge to interested individuals and study groups. The 40-page publication is titled, H A Digest of the Proposed Constitution", and may be procured by addressing a request to the Citizens Re* search Council in Detroit (1596 David Stott Building) or Lansing (204 Bauch Building). The Council is a private, nonprofit organization which conducts continuing, factual researcfi 'into public affairs and +HiT&- state and local level. The group never takes stands on ballot issues and never attempts to tell people how to vote. It finds and publicizes unbiased and non-political fact on the basis of which citizens can then make their own decisions on the course of public affairs. Michigan voters are being asked to accept or reject an entire new state constitution at the April 1, 1963, election. The CRC publication answers possible objections to this "package" approach by pointing out that voting on the now constitution as a unit avoids "the likelihood of introducing conflicting or inconsistent provisions through the merger of new and old language." It points out further that, "like the present constitution, the provisions of the proposed WINTER WOES • o » 0 A citizen, Worthington Bare, Went to work without chains c- He tlid on the mow, Which coct him eorae dough, Much more than the chain* would, by - • •• - v , ^ - . i t , t • » , - mended or revised a^ xLiic" goes by." In addition to discussion of changes proposed in the new constitution, the Council publication devotes space to a review of those provisions of the document which retain traditional Michigan practices. Among such fiscal provisions continued are listed: the 15-mlU limit, earmarking of gasoline and weight taxes for highway purposes, the present four-cent limit on sales tax, earmarking of sales tax for schools and local unit*, state loans to school districts, and restriction of voting on bond Issues to property owners and their spouses. Present political provisions retained without basic change include the initiative, referendum and recall; home rule for cities and villages; traditional are available.

It is in close proximity to several major manufacturing •»!£• It is considered an ideal location for the proposed new general hospital an adequate water, sewer and electrical services forms of local government; and the state's duties and responsibilities in the field of education. Also continued, says the publication, is "the Michigan principle of a separate, strong, self-fin a n c e d, constitutional control of the civil service and merit system for state employees." The concluding pages of the Digest contain a 100- Question Quiz which has been propared as a basis for an intensive study of the contents of the booklet. The Council has published 75,000 copies of the Digest and reports an unprecedented number of inquiries from citizens throughout the state. be expected to use the institutions facilities. Studies by the hospital's Building Committee, consultations with architects, engineers and several hospital administrators, estimates-that the new community hospital can be made a reality at a cost $1,- 825,000. A building fund appeal Is presently underway and will be directed primarily to the residents, busines s e s and industries which are geographically within the new hospital's service area. It is estimated that the new hospital will adequately cover the patient c;ire neods in approximately 200 square miles comprising the ten townships of Brighton, Commerce, Green Oaks, Hart land, Highland, Lyon, Milford, Novi, Rose and White Lake.

Presently, there are no acceptable hospital patient beds in the townships under consideration. National surveys indicate that one person in every eight will occupy a hospital bed annually. A recent survey confirmed the fact on a given day 108 patients from the area under consideration were in adjacent hospitals and 40 acutely ill persons were at home awaiting admission. Tho now proposed Huron Valley Commun i t y Hospital would accommodate these patients and alleviate the overcrowded conditions elsewhere.

Although one might think quiet would set in after the election at Romney'a Detroit campaign headquarters, the opposite has been the case as Volunteers poured over thousands of names for the Inaugural Ball invitations. "I've never seen anything like, it," said one veteran campaign volunteer as she entered the 6th Floor of the Industrial Building. "It looks like the last two months of the campaign." Just as busy is the Lansing office of Phil O. Pittenger, who is handling inauguration plans there. Cars, buses, and trains from around Michigan will converge on the state capitol January 1 to attend the official swearing in of the state's 44th chief executive. Many will arrive a day earlier to heat the rush. An inauguration day committee, under the direction of former Governor Wllber M. Brucker. promises many gala festivities for the usand who are expected to attend, beginning with a parade up Michigan Avenue to the Capitol and concluding with the colorful and memorable Inaugaural Ball in the Lansing Civic Center. Highlight of the day will come at noon when George Romney takes his oath of office as Governor of Michigan. It will be administered by Chief Justice Leland W. Carr on the Capitol steps. Members of the Michigan Air National Guard will cona jet fly-over during the ceremonies. The new governor will receive the traditional 19- gun salute after the oath is taken. Then there will be the playing of "Hail to the Chief." •This will be an ooeaslor no one will forget," said Governor Brucker, who also served as Secretary of the Army during the Eisenhower administration. He served as governor of Michigan during 1931-32. The M i c h i g a n National Guard band and several high school bands will lead a parade starting at 11 sum. from the East Michigan Avenue train depot.

Looking ahead into the new year we can see a tremendous challenge facing our American Legion Auxiliary. We can see that the inspiring example of our Auxiliary going forward in its great works of service is needed by America as never before. We as members of the largest patriotic organization ot women in America have a very definite stake In 1963. The hammer and sickle will undoubtedly continue their "underminding" of peace and freedom. The American Legion will again step forward to protect the individual rights of all veterans and all people. We will join together to ."get out the vote." We shall be forever mind* ful that it in God's hand, not man's, that guides the destiny of this world. Let us cling to our faith and our belief in the future of "the American way of life." Let us continue to contribute time, energy and any talent we have to promote the programs of The American Legion and the American Legion Auxiliary — lor God and* Country May 1963 be rich in blessings for all people, everywhere.

Want Column. OBITUARY. Hattie E. Rose was born in Pinck ney Mich, in the year 1844. In 1863 she married Mr. Wm.

A Groeer/man at Moscow, Hillsdale Co., Hires Two Men to Sara lilt Store • a Oootents That He Might Get the Insurance—Other Items. 3E lease tlonal Developments la Arson TrJaL The trial of Cbas. W. Hewitt on a charge of procuring the burning of a store building and the contents of the same, owned by himself, has been in process in the circuit court at Hillsdale fqr the past 10 days and some sensational developments have resulted. The property was located at Moscow, Hillsdale county, where Hewitt was engaged in the grocery business on a small scale. The tire occurred on the night of Jan. 20, 1900. It was suspected at the time that it w a s of in cendiary origin and Hewitt himself made a show of soliciting the aid of the authorities in hunting down the firebugs and bringing them to justice. Matters ran along until last September, when two citizens of Lenawee county, who live just over the county line, began to leak badly, to their own and Hewitt's discomfiture. ' These two men are Henry and Will Marvin, father and son. The Marvins were soon arrested and the younger man confessed to burning the building, but charged Hewitt with hiring him to do it. He said his father was with him, and be* fore he applied the match they looted the store, taking a wagon load of stuff home with them. Plnffree on Capittl Punishment. Gov. Stanley, of Kansas, has received a letter from Gov. Pingree in response to a letter that he .sent to the governor of all states in which capital punishment has been abolished, in which the governor of Kansas inquired whether there is a tendency to mob law in those states. Pingree says: "No state which has a capital punishment law has any right to boast of intelligence of its people. It is a relic of barbarism. There has been little, if any, mob violence in the state of Michigan, but I do not think this has been so because of either the existence of a capital punishment law or the absence of it. Whether there is mob violence or not depends upon the intelligence and temper of the people. I think that the people of Michigan have been less liable to commit rash acts as a result of excitement than the people in the south, where the Negro question is such a serious and disturbing one. A number of cases have been brought to my own knowledge and 1 have issued pardons where the prisoners were sentenced to life imprisonment and it was afterward learned that they were innocent. Marsh's Pardon Held Vnllrt. The supreme court has, in a unanimous opinion written by Justice Moore, dismissed the appeal in the case of Arthur F. Marsh, thus holding the par- » don granted him by Gov. Pingree valid. ' The opinion says" that the important question in the case is whether there has been a conviction of the respondent within the meaning of the constitution, so that executive clemency may ."be invoked, the prosecution having urged that before the governor can exercise the pardoning power there must be a sentence of the court as well as conviction. It is the opinion of the court that Gen. Harsh was convicted when he asked for clemency, therefore the pardon is valid and the accused tnust pay the sum stipulated by the governor when he granted the pardon. Itrets a Poor Crc p La»t Season. The Wolverine Sugar Co., of Benton Harbor, finished grinding this year's crop of beets on the 19lh and closed down as soon as the sugar was turned o u t The output of the factory this season is less than that of last year, owing to the poor crop of beets which | were blighted by dry weather in August. The beets, while a poor crop in bulk, were also short in saccharine substance. The factory's offer of $5 per ton for beets next season, it is thought, will give them all the beets they can handle next year. w MICHIGAN N E W S I T E M S . t V There is six inches of ice in Lake St. Clair. •' • > Niles is to have free rural mail delivery.

The Filipino3 are organizing a new . , , , political party, but as yet have not o n an impracticable basis, that it is jiamed it. Boston was visited by a fire on the 18th that destroyed 8200,000 worth of property. John D. Rockefeller, on the 19th, gave the Chicago university another 81.500,000. just one chance for the bill, but it is a very remote one. When the bill came to the senate from the house it w a s not introduced in the accustomed manner, and it was upon this slight oversight t i a t Senator Helme saved the measure from ultimate defeat. This accomplished the bill was quickly sent to the committee on state affairs, where it will remain unless sufficient votes can be secured to get it out on the floor again, which is very doubtful. After disposing of the taxation bill, Senator At wood lost no time in introducing a concurrent adjournment resolution providing for no further business after 12 o'clock on Dec. 18, and fixing Thursday, Dec. 20 as the date of final adjournmeut. The 4th special session called by Gov. Pingree practically came to a close on the 20th, without anything being accomplished. At the morning session the house weakened and adopted the concurrent resolution sent ever by the senate fixing final adjournment for the 22d. For an hour the Pingreeites tried to. fight off the inevitable, hoping to stay the wiudup until the governor could get a reply from Senator McMillan which he could spring. They succeeded in tangling up matters for a time and beat the concurrent resolution- once, but later the vote w a s reconsidered and the resolution was finally adopted by a vote of 45 to 29. When the governors personal and special invitation to attend the banquet, came up on the 1 *h, Senator Helme promptly moved that the invitation be refused. Senator At wood wished the communication kept ont of the official journal, so he moved that it be referred back to the writer. Senator Ward was in favor of .summary action, saying that the invitation was insulting and intended to be so, and that the governor should be given to understand that while he might insult 1he courts with impurity, he could not offer the senate an insult without having it resented The invitation was resented by a vote of 2:J- to 2. The representative of an eastern banking house, who has been at work ever since the session commenced, reaped a harvest so far as-the house is concerned on the 18th,. whew Gov. Pingree sent in three messages recommending the enactment of laws legalizing the issuing of bonds by the cities Petoskey. Traverse City and Charlevoix, and bills to this effect were promptly passed. The senators think these matters should be left for the regular session, hence the measures may be smothered for the preseat. Rep. Wayne offered a resolution on the ?9th asking the governor for a special message recommending the submission of a proposed amendmeirt to the constitution relative so the holding of sessions of the legislature.. The proposed amendment provided that the regular sessions shall be held: as> at present, hut be limited to 100 days, and thai there be in each even yeay a session t o convene in September and be limited to 40 daj-s. The resolution was tabled. When t>he house convened on the' afternoon of the 19th "Pop" Goodell offered a resolution requiring Senators Burrows and McMillan to support the Grant oleomargarine bill, which has passed the lower house of congress. The resolution was opposed by Reps. McCollum and Chamberlain, but Reps. Colvin and Buskirk came to the rescue of "Pop,' and it was adopted by a.vote of 52 to 27. It can almost be put down as- a-n assured faet that Gov. Pingree will not have the pleasure of signing hi& name to any law enacted by the present legislature-. That is the conclusion! of the majority of the senate* audi, unless some unforeseen consideration, arises, that will be its conclusion to- the end By a vote of 41 to 12,. the house on the 18-th indefinitely postponed action on the senate, concurrent resolution, fixing final adjournment for the 20th. The session is a long way from being ended, but there is apparently no likelihood that anything valuable will be accomplished. The senate on the 19th again made an attempt of final adjournment. This time the date for the last day of business was fixed as the 20th, and the time for final adjournment was set for the 22<L That body then took a recess to await action ol the house. According to Senator Atwood, the leader of the opposition to Pingree's bill, the next legislature will pass an equal taxation measure. He stated on the 19 th that the people of the state could rely on this promise being carried out. By a vote of 17 to 5 the senate on the night of the 17th refused to grant Gov. Pingree the use of the senate for his banquet on the night of the 18th. Rep. Chamberlain on the 18th introduced a bill asking for legislation fo? the relief of the Chippewa Indiana i n Cheboygan county.

The basis forH the r e w congressional apportionment can be fixed at any fig- v ure that would he practical and still Michigan's number of congressional districts will remain unchanged. Chairman Hopkins of the committee and six other members recommend that the number of districts,, now 357, be not changed but that the ration be increased to one member for every 208,- 862 inhabitants. Eep. Burleigh, of Maine, submitted a report in favor of a house of a86 members. Rep. Crumpacker, of Indiana,, filed an independent report in favor of a house of 374 members. Nothing" short of a increase to 390 members would give Michigan - another member. A reduction of just one member in the present gross number would reduce Michigan's representation to 11. As the- number agreed upon will surely be between 357 and 386, the Michigan delegation has no reason to be particularly concerned about the bill. V , Agents of the American Federation of Labor are at work among senators to try and have considered the bill which passed the house last summer and which concern*, among other penal institutions, the Detroit house of correction, Jack son prison and Ionia reformatory. It seeks to accomplish what the labor organizations in Michigan have tried unsuccessfully to accomplish through the state legislature, that is that the three institutions named mviet label "prison made" the chairs, shirts and other articles manufactured by convicts. Senator McMillan, as chairman of the senate committee on District of Columbia affairs, has approved the plan for two principal railroads, the the Boltimore & Ohio and the Pennsylvania, to have their tracks elevated and do away with grade crossings.

Dorothy is up stairs, the servants are out; as soon as she finishes the sewing of a button on Johnnie's refractory trousers she will come down, •he says, and watch the old year out, being evidently well pleased over the prospect of a club, night of our own, a little "Home, Sweet Home" sort of an arrangement. k It seems that Johnnie is the only member of our family not a member of a club. Dorothy simply holds on to the lfttle shaver by the collar, tied to her apron strings he is, and I am glad of i t Can I ever forget the day when our THIS IS A COZY LITTLE DEN. neighborhood took on a sudden quiet? The question arose, where are those boys? Dorothy and I knew all about it, for were we not invited to become honorary members of thei? club, "The OUapodrida?" We helped to foot the bills and evinced an interest in the affairs of the club; we lent them ten cents to buy material to reseat an old worn-out chair; there was another item; twenty-five cents for lumber, etc., and last, but not least, and that which caused Dorothy much suffering, were sundry pieces of rope to be fur- „ nished with all the paraphernalia of a trapeze arrangement, preparatory to meanderings aloft, all of which caused a rush of blood to my head, as I thought of these venturesome boys, three of them at work daily, experimenting with the center of gravity, walking on their heads being the objective point apparently. We are happily rejoicing these days, however, in a more recent occupant of the family cradle, who so far walks feet downward after the fashion of mortals. As time goes on, the children's youthful exploits, with the accompanying worries of their elders, fade into oblivion, as the more serious aspect confronts us. The OUapodrida members of my family have taken unto themselves a few extra years; two of these aforesaid members are looking collegeward, and X seem to worry about them in a wonderful way quite unlike myself. The bread and butter question confronts me? What profession will be theirs? Are they sufficiently strong in purpose to resist this or that? The day will come when Dorothy and I cannot shield them or stand beneath them and the cold world; we won't be here to settle the little accounts or encounters, or watch the little cotillions they are going to have with the dwellers of this mundane sphere. Then comes the .question over again: "Well, old fellow, what's the matter now? Can't you let the boys alone, and let them fight It out just as you did?" Some truth in that, I answer. "I will wait until Dorothy comes and I'll ask her, just for curiosity, what •he thinks of my past, and the general outlook." In part I jtm going to turn over a new leaf. Here is a volume of Longfellow be* side me on the table; he is so human, j v u know, and I will close my eyes, such diet s i sipping'frappea, Russi&a tea* and chocolate to a respectable, cozy dinner with your George Augustus; and," (pausing for breath) "don't be angry; couldn't you leave out that tiresome, quarrelsome card party and await my return with unruffled nerves, for instance, meet me at the door just a s you used to do, little wife?" (growing a little more tender). open the book (a Utile game of chance, you see), avid on the page where my finger rests I "will try if by chance a word of comfort come to me, that would hit my case. I seem to have a case of the blues; probably staying away from the club on this convivial occasion Is not agreeing with me. "Shut your eyes, open the book," say 8 the little exhorter, that unseen individual. Presto—change—0, what meets my eye? Will it be sonia dire prophecy or—? Here It is under a y forefinger: "A Shadow." It reads: I said to myself if I were dead. What would befall these children? What would be Their fate, who are now looking up to me For help and furtherance? Their lives, I said, Would It be a volume wherein I have read . But the first chapters, and no longer see To read the rest of their dear history So full of beauty and so full of dread. Be comforted; the world is very old. And generations pass, as they have passed, A troop of shadows moving with the sun; Thousands of times has the old tale been told; The world belong to those who come the last, They will find hope and strength as we have done. Was ever answer *cnt to a mortal man more clearly? I think I'm sent ior; there's some- 'thing besides old Father Time after me, surely. Here is the very answer to my dismals as to those boys and their doings. But here comes Dorothy, singing, apparently in a very cheerful mood. "This is perfectly lovely, George Augustus. "Johnnie's trousers are all right for tomorrow, and I have been looking over my precious tin box, and I find such lovely bits of literature and all sorts; suppose we Took them over to* alght." Perhaps Dorothy noticed an unusual expression on my manly countenance, for she paused and said: "What are you thinking about? What hao this \-ld year been saying to you? Are you having a retrospective sort of revival meeting all by yourself?" "Only a few ideas have struck me," Dorothy. I rather like this den of mine, especially tonight, and one or two articles in these books here seem to have been writJan especially for me, r c^ict an uncomfortable little voice '^b been questioning me. A thought strikes me that we, you and I, have drifted apart rather more than I ever dreamed we could. There has been a sort of 'We fellows at the club' air and manner about me, that I really think now, as I sit here, has been a foolishness on my part that I shall endeavor to discontinue; a sort of desire to be 'in with the boys' and "Why, whatever can be the matter with you, George Augustus? It is only a case of too many clubs in the family, that is all; eaeily remedied, you know. If this is to be a Home club tonight, let us invoke the spirit of the New Year here, right under this roof; let us stand here, and with the right hand uplifted vow, that naught shall come between thee and me, George Augustus and Dorothy; we will reach that land of trust and confidence that requires no weapon, not even a club, to create or quell a disturbance." Dorothy is really eloquent "Bring down the tin box, Dorothy; "we are 'the OUapodrida club' (the tin box, Dorothy and I) in memory of those boys wLo are trying another | sort of trapeze swinging high or low with the wings of ambition, up to greater heights." By the way, Dorothy sketches and paints. I will give her a subject, earth, sky and water, the soft green turf^-the blue ethereal, the hazy mountain top, while the lazy lapping waves touch the eager feet of the climbers yt-t in the valley as they stand on the -shore twixt earth and sea, girded and armed for the steep ascent to the shrine on the distant heights.

"And perhaps, most noble and adorable (my temper rising) and twentieth century wife, if I should give up my Sunday evenings at the club, possibly^ you may be willing to sacrifice a few of those insufferable 'teas' and bring an appetite uncontamlnated with Good-bye, old year!

Although there is no fear as to the ultimate result, the lack of a sufficient number of mounted troops is felt by the British.

It is said that 3,000 republicans have entered Cape Colony and a similar number have reached Philipstown.

The Boers will leave Amsterdam Jan. 5. Gen. De Wet had G,O00 men and 18,- 000 horses when he captured De Wetsdorp, according to a gentleman who was imprisoned there. The Boer commander then declared that he was not going to surrender without a free pardon for all his men, including many Cape Dutch. The force of 6,000 is now divided iDto three sections. The invasion of Cape Colony is spreading. It is reported that the Boers have occupied Colesburg, south of Philippolis, and near the Orange River Colony frontier. The people at Cape town are much disturbed. A mixed force of 1,000 men were dispatched north on the night of the 19th. President Kr.uger arrived at Amsterdam on the 19th. He was met at the railroad station by the municipal and communal authorities. Speeches were exchanged in the royal waiting room. A bouquet was presented to Kruger, whose every appearance was a-signal for rounds of applause. Still the news keeps coming telling of the wanton cruelty of the German troops in China. It is reported that recently the German troops visited Lung-Ching and shot 60imperial troops who were engaged in suppressing boxers and also killing 30 other Chinese, including three converts. They took 200 prisoners, including 30 natives attached to the Anglican mission. In consequence of an appeal from the magistrates, however, the prisoners were liberated in return for the payment of 20,000 taels. This punitive expedition was in defiance of the understanding that no such measures should be taken.pending negotiations. The Germans are said to have looted the place.

H« thruet his hands into his packets and' gazed despairingly at the stocking suspended in limp supplication from the mantel-piece. Then he turned it inside out and inspected it. Next, he Idly counted its checks. He looked at the offending stocking^ this way and that •with growing ire; he pulled it, he pinched it, he turned it, he twi6ted it. he fingered it in every way In an agony of indecision. When every hope had deserted him. he stood oft and, reckless of discovery, puffed vigorously upon* his pipe. And then a bright idea came to his relief. "Well." he muttered, chuckling at his escape, "bust me if in these days, ~T can tell whether you're a man's or a woman's, but a bicycle lamp is sure <o suit either way." —o—o—o—o—o H e w to Cure Croup.

A P l » y « l o l n : i \ V l i n n e R e p u t a t i o n a s a C r i t i c W a s D l a « « e d . There's a physician in Baltimore who adores music. His taste, to be sure, runs rather to "Old Black Joe," "Suwannee River" and such classics, but still any sort of music will do, and he listens to it all ecstatically and with a properly intelligent look on his face. It was therefore believed that he had a fine taste for harmony, and his reputation as-a critic was established and grew apace as reputations will, good or bad. The other evening as his daughter approached the house in which this physician livtxi she heard the strains of "Home, Sweet Home," proceeding from the library. "Father's at it again." she said to herself softly. "1 wonder who h e has coerced into playing for him now?" A glance disclosed the fact that he had bribed three street musicians, two violinists and a harpist into giving him a private recital. They finished the air just as the young woman entered, and the physician turned to her with a beaming face. "That 'Nearer. My God. to Me,' is a beautiful thing. I s i r t T f n i e askel It was the first time he had committed himself on the subject of "tunes," and his glory began to diminish from that moment, for his daughter told the incident as what she considered an excellent joke. Now the worthy man says that he likos music solely as an incentive to thought and listens to It when he wishes to solve some knotty problem of artery or bones, just as those who suffer from insomnia go to church and listen to the sermon to. be put to sleep.—Baltimore News.

At first, however, the more dignifiid re,preseniative was chosen as more in keeping with the occasion.

It is oot generally known that Cinrinnatl bus within her confine* a half oosteu factories that manufacture' every day enough deadly poisous to annihilate the entire population of the city. These factories are carefully guarded from all intruders, uud eveu the employees have to be skilled in their work uud bo well aware- of the risk they take before admittance is granted. Some of the poisous are so deadly that inhaling tbe fumes that arise from their manufacture would menu certain death. This is especially tbe case with anhydrous acid, a» drug that Is never placed on the market iu its pure state, and even in the chemist's laboratory it is handled with all the care that would be given to a poisonous reptile. If the fumes of this acid should escape, tbe chemist would never live to tell the tale. Tbe man who discovered it was killed by inhaling Its fumes, and other men have met similar deaths. • Probably the most dangerous of tbe drugs manufactured here is the cyanide of potassium. Its fumes are said not to be poisonous, and one can work in tbe room where it is manufactured without fear, except that he must not touch it. The slightest quantity of the poison in its pure state would kill instantly if swallowed. The fumes arising from it have rather a pleasant odor, and It is said that it produces a witching effect upon tbe workmen. The finished poison looks like crystallized sugar, and as you gaze on it and smell the fascinating odor there is a strong temptation to* taste I t , The fascination is probably much like that which draws a man over a steep precipice. At any rate, the attraction to taste of the poison is so jvell recognized that a workman is never allowed to remain alone in the room where it is being manufactured. Nitric and sulphuric acids are poisons equally fearful in their results when once liberated. These poisons eat away and through almost anything, and they can only be kept In carboys. When Sone of these carboys Is broken, the factory is doomed. The acid spreads round and begins to eat into everything it touches and incidentally sets everything inflammable on fire. -To collect the acid or to pour anything over it to counteract its effects Is an impossibility. As it burns and spreads around its fumes become deadly in their effectrand firemennattempting to" put out the flames would suffer. The fumes do not kill at once, but if breathed for 24 hours they poison tbe system, and death ofttimes results. The fumes of corrosive sublimate are as deadly as almost any poison, and in factories where the drug 1B made the greatest care is used to prevent them from escaping. There are many other poisons made for commercial use that are only a little less powerful, but nearly all of them are diluted when placed on the market. Some of these are yellow prussiate of potash, nitrate of silver, acetate of lead and copper, ferrocyanlde of potash, white and red lead and many other poisons. By their being diluted the danger of using and handling is minimized. There is one factory in -Cincinnati that does a thriving business securing nitrate of silver from cast off photographers' stock and still another that makes the drug iu a crude way. The proprietor' of the latter establishment Is a native of Switzerland, and the garret of his house is his workshop. Some time ago he w a s overcome by the fumes from his crucibles and came near dying. He had met with a young German learning tbe trade, and the apprentice suddenly quit his job when he discovered that his skin was turning a bluish hue. The accidents that have resulted from handling this class of poisons are many. Several years ago a carboy of nitric acid was accidentally broken in a factory in Eastern avenue, and the acid began to have its way without opposition. It soon started the interior of the factory on fire, and it was eating its way into an adjoining room, where large quantities of other poisons were stored. Several workmen volunteered to put out the flames and to check the acid in Its deadly work. Several hours were occupied before they succeeded, and when matters seemed all right they returned home. Tbe next day all were sick, and one of the men died, tbe fumes of the acid having been inhaled and enough of the poison absorbed to cause death. — Cincinnati Commercial Tribune. i V e r r *£« Who hit fcmiile trouble, cmoion to They are the great Blood hud Nerve Medicine and Developer.

Some steel is also being sent from Germany, but not in such large quantities as from America. The newest fashion in New York sky-scraper construction is to begin at the top and build downward.

The lower ten are as yet mere, skeleton of girders and trusses. The larger blocks . of granite for these lower floors were not ready on time, so the builder decided to go ahead on the ones above. It is perfectly safe, yet the appearance of the structure is so unusual that it is a curiosity, even for Wall Street. CHAPTER XI.—(Continusd.) No-one ever knew what passed in that interview. Harvey briefly told his wife he had begged for forgiveness and gained it, but the old relations between Gladys and himself would never be renewed—she was through with the life of which he had been a part. When Helen threw herself In his arms in a passion of grief for having done him hurt While striving only for his benefit, he kissed her sadly. It was all a mistake, he said; he had been the more culpable of the two. Together they would take up life under the new conditions, never alluding to the errors of the past. He was very kind, very gentle; but there was that in .his manner and look which told her Harvey, the boy, was dead, to make way for the grave, almost s t e m man who henceforth walked by her side through life, affectionate and true, yet with the ineffable quality that tinges the humblest marriage with romance forever stricken from his love. Within a year after her departure Gladys was married to a man slightly her junior, whesa wealth doubled hers. Her beauty and vivacity made her the center of a wide social circle, and having been shut away from city pleasures so long she enjoyed them\ now with childlike enthusiasm. Engrossed in a bewildering happy present the past became to her a dream, and after the arrival of her first child; a half forgotten one. The house in Rockville was sold, "and long year^passed~before she again saw Harvey. In the careworn man with stooping shoulders she found it difficult to recognize her once handsome boy. He was oniy~~forty, but life had gone hard .with him. There were many mouths to feed at home, and all Helen's thrift could not make one dollar do more than the work of two. T^>ng ago Gladys had wholly forgotgotten her grievances, but not the affection for which she had sacrificed so much.

This is the twentieth commission the government has given to Frauletff Pauiasrwho has not achieved her success without a straggle and much opposition from the building' trade, which petitioned the minister of public works to prohibit her from entering for* the examinations.

And Harvey had been her boy as well as Gladys'. So all were in their way happy and content—all but one. It is hard for the covetous soul to eome near to fortune yet never grasp H; and even when better days had dawned, and want was forever set at bay, the bitter knowledge that she had doomed her husband to a struggle with poverty that robbed him of youth and hope and ambition was with Helen Atherton all the days of her life.

He gained his title on his first display in the riding school, whers, alter a short ride on tbe nect ©jthe ildjng master's pet buck jumper, he turned deathly pale and cried aloud that he might be allowed to dismount. The horse at once gratified his desire by throwing him on to the tan, where he lay trembling in every limb, much to the diversion of a couple of rough riders who were standing by. They were quick to inform their respective squadrons, and, his former occupation being .known, he was promptly christened White Feather. In those dark days it was the joy of the more hardy recruits to take him aside solemnly and request the service of three-pence three farthings worth of white feathers. Any morfcai of down or fluff that might float iLtd the barracks was promptly captured and presented to him with due ceremonies by Trumpeter Pipes, the low comedian oj the regiment The older men forbore to join in with these somewhat tiring repetitions of a stale joke. They remembered their own experiences in the riding school and recognized that White Feather was a quiet and inoffensive fellow, devoid of the impudence and bad manners peculiar to recruits and respectful and helpful to his seniors. The sergeant instructor, too, after a time took a fancy to his timid recruit, and took_ extra trouble to teach him how to keep his heels out, his hands down and his head up. "I've made smart cavalrymen out o* bigger, duffPTS than jgoii/' he n«M tp remark encouragingly as he flicked White Feather's horse into a canter, "and I'll make a rider o* you, or I'll break your neck!"

He could crawl no more. "Itwill, for her cake!" He murmured between his clenched teeth, and, rising from the shelter of the rock, he faced the hail of death that pattered to the earth around him. As he walked into the open a faint cheer reached his ears from the British troops half a mile behind him. The Royal artillery backed him with a shrieking flight of shrapnel, which whistled for a moment overhead, then burst over the Boer lines a quarter of a mile away in a shower of bullets that for a moment quelled the storm around him. He reached the wounded man, lifted him on his back and returned step by step to where Trumpeter Pipes lay hidden.

The money was found in an old cupboard in the hovel wherein the deceased had lived for over half a century* Marie Leret was eighty-three Tears old, and was one of the most successful mendicants of the day. She begged persistently at church doors, in the streets, at the railway stations, and received, moreover, substantial gifts from charitably-disposed per- «o—, who had n o idea that tbey were assisting a miser.

That is a secret that belongs to the army alone. Suffice it to say that his comrades are proud of his name. He should never have entered the army at all, much less a hard riding cavalry regiment which had a reputation to sustain by a yearly tribute of broken necks and collar bones. . His proper vocation was that of a linen draper's assistant, and he had filled that occupation very satisfactory till one evil day be had fallen in love with a girl, a silly, shallow girl, at whom no practical man or boy would have taken a second look. He adored her, and she adored soldiers. In thefr walks abroad she would direct hisVteps toward the Horse guards or Wellington barracks, that she might gaze in admiration at the fine, strapping soldiers who were to be seen there, and every time she pinched his arm and exclaimed: "Oh, Jack, look at that lovely soldier!" bii heart gave him a pang at the thought that he was only a draper's assistant, with nothing in common with the military but the handling of red cloth! He was a dreamer by nature, and falling in love did not lessen his weakness in this direction. Dreaming is pardonable in a poet, but an unpardonable crime in a Unen draper's assistant, and as he stood at his counter ££3 mind was far away from his work. Instead of listening to the "Forward!" of the shopwalker he could only hear the short-finng word of command and* the blare of tbe bugles that sounded through bis dreams; wherefore it was not long before he came into conflict with his practical chief. A few sharp words passed. He threw np in three a position fo had taken six which had bean gadly retarded by the heavy, gas-laden atmosphere in which he had lived. His nerves acquired tone, and he learned to take a tumble now and then as a matter of course and to fire hia carbine without shutting his eyes and blanching at the explosion of the cartridge. "Blow me, if he isn't going to shape Into a man at last!" quoth the sergeant instructor. Then a great blow fell upon him. He received one morning a letter from the girl to tell him that she had given him up in Tavor of a shopwalker who had expectations of being set up in business by his father. She admitted that she had adored soldiers and that she had caused him to enter the army for her sake. But she had omitted to state that the soldiers she adored were soldiers who possessed the Queen's commission and who wore stars instead of a worsted stripe. If poor White Feather was a physical coward, he was a moral hero. There is no chance of a display of feeling in a barrack room so, like the Spartan boy of old, he hugged his trouble to him, slipping the aheap little engagement ring with which he had sealed his troth into his pocket without a sign beyond the twitching of his white lips. Then he lit his pipe with the letter, not out of contempt, but because there fs little privacy accorded in the correspondence that comes to the barrack room, and a private soldier Is not provided with a desk wherein to keep his faded flowers and other sentimental tokens of the past. The blow was a very heavy one, for White Feather was without ths worldly knowledge that should have told him long since that he had fixed his affections upon a vulgar, selfish and brainless flirt, and he still believed in her. For her sake he had learned to overcome his physical cowardice. He had dreamed of a possible commission ia the dim future and had rejoiced In the recently acquired promotion as a step toward her. For her sake, too, he received the news cheerfully when the word passed through the barracks that the regiment was ordered to South Africa to meet tbe Boers. He knew that he was by nature a coward, but for tbe memory of her he swore an oath to himself to do his duty without sparing himself tn the coming fight. • • ' 5 • » ' • .0 ,0 "Look 'err, old chap, we ain't going to can yon White Feather no more!"

One thrifty woman who had watched the vegetables and fruit rotting day by day at her grocer's, and which were a dead loss to him, proposed that they enter into an arrangement in the future whereby she should preserve and pickle his entire surplus, either for regular pay'or upon commission, in the latter case he furnishing the sugar and spices. Another woman, with sharp business instincts, a butcher's wife, made up soup stock, and found a ready sale for it to many overworked housekeepers. Still another, who knew but one thing thoroughly, and that was cookery, called every morning at. certain physicians offices and formed a list of families in which sickness prevailed. To these families she offered to come every day for an hour or so and prepare in their own homes mutton broth, beef extract, chicken jelly, panada, gruels, fruit and herb drinks, wine whey, custard, etc., furnishing her time and labor cheaper than the articles could be bought at restaurants or women's exchanges. Some women are specialists In one branch, such as handkerchief embroidering, lampshade making, fan painting, feather curling,- glove cleaning, and the like, or can make beautiful neck scarfs, or ! launder fine laces. Such can easily make their specialty pay, some by tha aid of friends, some by the patronaga of dealers in such goods, some by a house to house canvass made by themselves. A young girl in one of the larga eastern cities was recently puzzled by finding herself left almost helpless and homeless, with no talent in any one direction. There was but one thing of which she never tired, and that was of children, all of whom seemed to adore her; so this young girl went out at co much an hour to amuse sick and irritable children. Many a worn-out mother found her presence a most grateful repose. She was indefatigable in inventing new games and perfecting old ones, and her naturally retentive memory came also to her aid as a story-teller.

A Letter from the Executive Office of Oregon. The Governor of Oregon is an ar dent admirer of Pe-ru-na. He keeps it continually in the house. In a recent letter to Dr, Hartman he says: State or Oregon, ' Executive Department, Salem, May 9, 1S98. The Pe-ru-na Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio: Dear Sirs:—I have had occasion to use your Pe-ru-na medicine in my family for colds, and it proved to be an excellent remedy. I have not had occasion to use it for other ailments. Yourr verytruly, W-. a k - i o r d . Any man who wishes perfect health must be entirely free from catarrh. Catarrh is well-nigh universal; almost omnipresent. Pe-ru-na is the only ab-' solute safeguard known. A cold is the beginning of catarrh. To prevent colds, to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out of its victims. Pe-ru-na not only cures catarrh, but prevents. Every household should be supplied with this great remedy for coughs, colds and so forth. It will be noticed'that the Governor says he has not had occasion to use Pe-ru-na for other ailments. The reason for this is, most' other ailments begin with a cold. Using Pe-ru-na to promptly cure colds, he protects his family against other ailments. This is exactly what every othej; family in the United States should do. Keep Pe>ru*na In the house. Use i t for coughs, colds, la grippe, and other climatic affections of winter, and there will be no other ailments in the house. Such families should provide themselves with a copy of Dr. Hartman's free book, entitled "Winter Catarrh." Address Dr. Hartman, Columbus, '0.

At other times the healthy subject was bled into a bowl and the blood was beaten to remove the fibrin before it was passed into the blood vessels of the patient. The procedure is a dangerous one. however, although many lives have been saved by it, and it has now been almost entirely abandoned, a much safer plan being used. It Is found that the blood when defibrinated is no longer a living fluid, and the corpuscles it contains serve no useful purpose when injeeted, but rather act as foreign matter which must be got rid of. Accordingly physicians now use distilled water in which a definite proportion of common salt and other chlorides have been dissolved. This solution is warmed and is injected slowly into a vein at the bend of the elbow, about a quart being used. Often it is not even necessary to pour the fluid into a vein, but simply to inject it through one or more hollow needles into the tissues beneath the skin of the abdomen or the thigh. This is done not only to .supply an equivalent for fluid lost in hemorrhage or cholera, but afto in certain diseases In which blood poisoning exists. In this latter case a large amount of fluid is injected slowly, and being taken up by the blood is almost immediately excreted through the kidneys, carrying with it .much of the poison which the blood was unable to rid itself of unaided. This operation has been felicitously called "blood washing," for this is what It really Is, and to tbe process humanity owes tbe saving of many lives. —Youth's CfunpanJon. ~ Witked Tfcwn Up. It is related of an eccentric chaplain to a foreign court that he became so annoyed In'consequence of bis audience, or, rather, congregatlon^mak- Lng a practice of going to sleep during bis sermons that he resorted to tbe following "awakening" expedient In the midst of one of his sermons be drew forth a barmonicon from bis pocket and began to play. The one or two who were still awake, astonished to see such a performance in a pulpit, awoke those who slept and pretty soon everybody was lively as well as being filled with wonder. This was the preacher's opportunity, for be at once commenced a most severe cqstlgatory discourse, *ln the course of which he said, "When I an- Dounce to you sacred and Important truths, you are not ashamed to go to sleep, but when 1 play tbe fool you are all eye and ear."

Plucking up courage be stepped forward, paid his money arid was allowed to take his seat with tbe other aeronauts.

All right, then, how old was Ann? Queen Alexandra, who was born In 1S44, is not only a good hut a brave queen. She atiti celebrates her birthday. According to" Walter Wellman the <bnly way to reach the pole is by balloon. Either that or by way of the magazines. This is the time of year when the rabbit doesn't know whether the morrow's sun win rise upon him as Bunny or Hassenpfeffer. Unfortunately science produces nc evidence tending to show whether Niagara Falls was put on earth for business or pleasure. Sir Thomas Lipton makes a hand some defense of American hotels. But Sir Thomas was a favored guest when he stopped m them. By putting up the earth as a stake for one to win and having the millions of men compete, opportunity would etill be equal, if not reasonable. The Harvard professor of international law who becomes Grand Vizier to the ruler of Siam will develop into a literal power behind the throne. In attempting to shoot a man the other day a New York woman wounded two innocent bystanders—at least, they claimed that they were innocent. In these days of piping prosperity even a poor man lives high, unless he has been quoted a line of produce prices not accessible to the general public. The horse enjoys^ a certain advantage in the fact that the automobile accident is more spectacular and therefore more talked about than the ordinary runaway. A Chicago woman wants a divorce because her husband prefers listening to a phonograph rather than her conversation. Her conversation must be something fierce, remarks the Washington HeraM. The Fort Edwards, N.

A magazine asks: "What implement can equal the hairpin in the deft hands of a woman." That's easy. A note, written in a delicate, feminine hand, found in her husband's vest pocket, will beat it every time. A Baltimore newspaper announces that a prize performing flea which escaped from one of the theaters of the city had been captured. Thereby have been removed the apprehensions of those who witnessed its last exhibition. The shah o f W r t u a has just bestowed upon an American piano manufacturer the brilliant decoration of the Order of the Lion and the Sun. Some time ago the sultan of Turkey gave the same gentleman a decoration of similar character. There seems to be no doubt of the power of American piano music to soothe the Mohammedan breast. Owing to considerable distress prevailing in many agricultural districts, writes Consul-General B. H. Kidgely. Df Barcelona, the purchasing power of the Spanish peasants has been greatly curtailed. In former years a large trade was done throughout Spain in bleached linen and'linen yarns. No household, however humble, but Dwned its set of linen sheets, which formed part of the dowry of every peasant girl on her wedding day. On account of the greater cost of linen, which has placed it among the list of luxuries, this once important branch of trade had dwindled down to an insignificant figure. Public opinion in England has killed the soap combination, says the Philalelphia Ledger. Notwithstanding the workings of the "irresistible economic, law of combinatiop" the protests of the trade and of the public have been to positive and so emphatic that the power of $60,000,000 capital was impotent to stand up against them. The refusal of the retailers to "sell and of :he public to buy a product, however meritorious, which bore the "trust taint" was too much for the promoters, and they have announced that, they have found their plan of; economic combination "unworkable l i d that It baa been terminated. SIDE LIGHTS CARL MENDE, DI8HEARTENED BY LIFE'S MISFORTUNES, ENDED ALL. BY SUICIDE AND MURDER Latest Theory of the Saginaw Trag edy—Lansing Man Fired the Houae for Revenge On Hit Wife. Life Was a Failure. The mysterious death by poisoning of Carl Mende and his wife in Saginaw and the serious illness of their son, aged 12, are" now believed to have been the result of a suicide and murder plot on the part of Mende, either due to hereditary insanity or despair over his failure to carve out a successful career- Two months ago, after falling in the Lutheran ministry, he returned to newspaper work, which he had followed early in life, and became editor of the German paper, the Staats Zeitung. His work did not suit the management, lacking adaptation to his duties, and his contract was cancelled two weeks ago. Of aristocratic parentage in Germany, high spirited and sensitive, he was greatly depressed over his failure in life and felt keenly the plight of his family which he could foresee when their savings were exhausted. It is believed while In this frame of mind Mende decided he would end his own life and not leave those he loved best to be buffeted by the world. That there is insanity In his family is shown by the fact that his eldest son is confined la a private insane aeyhun la Wisconsin. Believed to Be Insane. Uoyd Bailey, candymaker, aged 35, confessed to the Lansing police that he set fire to the home of his fatherin- law, W. L. Sharp, in which was sleeping his young wife, who had begun divorce proceedings against him. His attorney believes him insane. By his use of kerosene one of the rear doors became ablaze and the flames were gaining headway inside, when one of the occupants was awakened by smoke and all rushed from the $iouse, summoning neighbors, by whose aid the fire was extinguished. Owing to his previous conduct Bailey was suspected and was arrested. After quarrels with his father-In law and his wife, whom he married when sho was but 15, Bailey one'night threw a beer bott?e through a window of the Sharp home, narrowly missing his wife and their week-old baby. For this act he was sentenced to 90 days in the Detroit house of correction, but his wife secured his release from Gov. Bliss when their baby died. Threw the Baby Out. "The baby waa mine; I threw Jt out the window. I was scared." Lellia Guyette, aged 16, thus ad* dressed the Flint officers when questions were put to her as she lay in her bedroom in the presence of her mother. She tearfully related that her baby was born between the hours of 3 and 4 o'clock Sunday morning, and that she was alone in the room at the time, although her mother was asleep in a room adjoining. Her mother disclaims any knowledge of the affair whatever and was grief stricken and durafounded when the girl told her story. Whether the girl-mother will be held criminally responsible for the death of the child will not be known until the doctors who conducted the postmortem make their report. One Succeeded. Two Grand Rapids citizens made up their minds they were tired of life Monday night but only one succeeded In committing suicide. The body of Peter Hoogland was found hanging in a grape arbor. He was about 60 years of age, despondent over the actions of his son-in-law. who whipped, him one day last week, it is alleged. Neighbors hint at foul play, but so far the police have found nothing to back their opinions. Mrs. Anna Woodman swallowed morphine and carbolic acid in a fit of jealousy. A neighbor, who came in. found some eggs and milk, which she kept giving the patient until doctors arrived. She was terribly burned by the acid and for two hours lay in a stupor from the morphine. She wll' probably recover. May Be a Fake. The "shooting affray" at the Watervliet depot, where Fred Bllnkhorn Is said to have been narrowly miased by a bullet through the wijndow, is said to have been a fake by the officers who have investigated It. They say that the course taken by the buHet was impossible if fired, as Is claimed by Blinkhorn, and the apparent unconcern of the operator, who is working in his old position, reading novels in his leisure time, the officers say, makes the fact certain in thai' minds. Killed by Runaway. Herbert Swann, aged 55, was thrown from his wagon in a runaway Monday evening and sustained injuries from which he died next day. He had been to Dlmondale, where he had drank heavily and when he mounted his wagon sea< the horses were fractious from standing in the cold. They ran most of the way, three miles, home and Swann was thrown out only $0 rods before they stopped. He was wellto- do and leaves a wldpw and five children. Revives in Morgue, Then Dies. Given up for dead and taken from a Grand Rapids & Indiana train as a corpse, Kenneth Frederickson, of Peioskey, was laid out in a Grand Rapids morgue ready to be placed in a casket. After lying there half an hour he suddenly came to life. It was only a temporary rally, and he'died shortly after in spite of medical assistance. The body was sent to Petoskey. He left home several months ago j and went to Colorado for his health, I a victim of tuberculosis, and he rapid- j ly failed. He sent to Petoskey Odd Fellows, telling them he wanted to '• come home to die. E. C. Labadie was! sent to bring him home. On the train | near Grand Rapids he apparently died, and the train was met by an undertaker's wagon. Fir"* o..a Working. '"An attempt to DUrn life..temporary high school building in Port Huron was made Tuesday. Prof. Mann no- j ticed smoke coming through the floor of his room. In the basement was found a blazing pile of rubbish, indi eating that the fire was of incendiary origin. The wires connecting the electric bells in the building were found cut. adding further to the suspicion that a determined effort was made to , destroy the building. It is now believed that the fire which destroyed the' old high, school building was of incendiary origin, although it was thought to be accidental at the time. There have been a number of minor fires of mysterious origin and they are now all believed to have been started by the same party. Died On the T r a i n . Death won in the race with M. J. Burke, an implement dealer of Port Huron, who tried hard to reach his home in a quick trip from Arizona. He died in a Pullman car, 40 miles from the city. Mr. Burke, who was only 30 years of age, went west last June to seek relief from tuberculosis. With his brother, Edwin, he camped out in Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico. Recently he was told at Phoenix, Ariz., that the end was near, and he started home. Peter's Good Shoe. Peter Lankhuizin, in this country only a few months, used one of his old country wooden shoes to good advantage Saturday night. Peter lives in the outskirts of Holland and was returning home when he was stopped by two men, who demanded money. Peter grubbed off his wooden shoe and rapped one of the would-be highwaymen on the head. The fellow gave a yell and fell like a log and his partner ran away. The Hollander thought he had killed the man and went to get help. When he returned the robber had disappeared. Lake Vessels Made Money. Never before was so much money paid for carrying freight in lake vessels as during the season just closed. A rough estimate is $61,000,000 for coal, iron ore, grain and lumber. The share of this vast sum which found its way into the profit account of vessels was perhaps the largest in the history of the lakes. One of the ships showed a profit of 35 per cent on the insurance valuation. The despised old wooden steamers, which vesselmen thought three years ago were no longer of any value, have since paid in profits what they could have been sold for, and iheir owners have them yet. Several hundred letters, dated between November, 20 and November 22, were found torn open under a lumber pile near the Ann Arbor :*lepot in Cadillac. Powerful New Rifles. There are to be 100 of the new Springfield rifles, which the government ordnance department claims are the finest and most powerful in the world, Issued to the Michigan national guard, and two of them will be sent to each infantry company for use for target shooting. Later the rifles are to be secured for the entire brigade. This is the announcement of Col. W. G. Rogers, assistant quarter-mastergeneral, who returned yesterday from a trip to Washington and other eastern points. A Physical Wreck. Jacob L. Hisey, former treasurer and general manager of the Muskegon Milling Co.. was taken to Hackley hoBpital today a physical wreck and Is in a dangerous condition. Doctors are with him constantly. His sickness was brought on by constant worry over the company's affairs and the charge against him of obtaining money under false pretenses. J. A. Tuttle, of Menominee, hale and hearty at 82, has celebrated his second silver wedding. He has lived 25 years with each of two wives. His first, May Hodges, died in 1880, and In 1881 Mr. Tuttle married Marietta Glarkv Deaths in Michigan during November numbered 2,864, a decrease of 610 as compared with October.

THE LEGISLATURE. CAN DOCK CONGRESSMEN Old Law Dug Up W h i c h Cuts Pay of Absentees—May Sell Ziort City. Gov. Higgins, pf New York, commuted to imprisonment for life the sentence of death under which Albert T. Patrick has remained for nearly five years, since his conviction of the mufder of William MarBh Rice, the aged Texas millionaire, in New York city. In announcing the decision Gov. Higgins said: "It is not claimed that Patrick committed the murder in person, but that he procured the act to be done. He has been convicted principally upon the testimony of Charles F. Jones, who confessed that he murdered his master while he lay asleep, instigated thereto by Patrick, and Jones by this test! mony has purchased his own Immunity from trial or punishment. Three of the seven judges of the court of appeals were so strongly of the opinion that errors were committed at the trial that I feel that the death penalty ought not, under all the circumstances, to be Inflicted." Resolutions asserting belief in the innocence of Albert T. Patrick were adopted by the Medico-Legal society at its annual dinner in New York. The resolutions were based on a report by a special committee of experiments made in the use of embalming.fluids. The society calls upon Gov. Higgins to pardon Patrick. Docks Congressmen. Rep. Wesley Gaines, of Tennessee, who has been baoking the movement for an increase in the salaries of congressmen, recently introduced a bill providing that each member of congress be docked $13.70 for every day he is abaant without leave. It was discovered there is already a law, enacted in 1856, covering this point, which had never been enforced. Yesterday when the house was called to order less than 50 members were in their seats. Should all those absent without leave be docked $13.70, according to the law, the government would save about $4,192.20 on yesterday's expenses of running the government. Only SO' members had leave of absence*? ' Representative Lacey, of Iowa, took a pronounced position in opposition to the adjournment of congress for the Christmas holidays, declaring that "it is idiotic for the house to adjourn and then Jam art legislation through under whip and spur during the closing days." May Sell Zlon City. At a meeting of creditors of the Zion City estate in Zlon Tabernacle, Chicago, Receiver John C. Hately announced that conditions have reached a point demanding that Immediate arrangements be made for selling the entire property. Many of the creditors, he said, are in absolute i>overty as the result of having invested their all In "the kingdom." Others are approaching financial ruin. The creditors will vote oh the question of selling the property. To Order 5,000 Cars. The purchasing agent of the Pennsylvania railroad has invited bids for the construction of 5,000 box cars at an estimated cost of $6,000,000. This will make nearly 60,000 additional freight cars the company will have ordered within the past two years. It is not expected the cars will be delivered before the latter part of next year. Insurance Reformers Abolish Proxy. Among the strong features of the insurance bill which has been prepared by the Wisconsin legislative insurance investigating committee, and which will be presented at the coming session of the state legislature, is the abolition of the proxy system of voting. Celebrates 106th Birthday. Mrs. Elizabeth Stalker, of Williams burg, and a pioneer resident of Bla/r county, celebrated the 106th anniversary of her birth last night. Among the telegrams of congratulation she received was one from President Roosevelt. Canal Commission Reports. The report of the Isthmian canal commission, giving the progress of the work on the Panama canal in detail, the chief features of which were summarized in President Roosevelt's account of his trip, was submitted to congress.

(Copyright, 1M8, b / Lothrop Publiiiin* ~»* * CHAPTER V.—Continued. When they were all on with their meager belongings, he called again to the man in the wagon. "Brother Keaton, my . father went across, did he?" Several of the men on shore answered him- "Yes;' — "Old white-whiskered death's-head went over the river"— "Over here'r—"A sassy old codger he was"—"He got his needings, too"— "Got his needings—" They cast off the line and the oars began to dip. The confusion of landing and the preparations for an immediate start drove for the time all other thoughts from his mind. It had been determined to get the little band at once out of the marshy spot where the camp had been made. The teams were soon hitched, the wagons loaded, and the train ready to move. He surveyed it, a hundred poor wagons, many of them without cover, loaded to the full with such nondescript belongings as a house-dwelling people, suddenly put out on the open road, would hurriedly snatch as they fled- And the people made his heart ache, even to the deadening of his own sorrow, as he noted their wobegdneness. For these were the sick, the infirm, the poor, the inefficient, who had been unable for one reason or another to migrate with the main body of the Saints earlier in the season. Many of them were now racked by^ fever from.sleeping on the damp ground. These bade fair not to outlast some of the lumbering carts that threatened at every rough spot to jolt apart. Yet the line bravely formed to the order to Seth Wright as captain, and the march began. Looking back, he saw peaceful Nauvoo, its houses and gardens, softened by the cloudy sky and the autumn haze, clustering under the shelter of their temple spire— their temple and their houses, of which they were riow despoiled by a mob's fury. Ahead he saw the road to the wrest, a hard road, as he knew— one he could not hope they should cross without leaving more graves by the way; but Zion was at the end. "Only a short march to-day, brothers. Our camp is at Sugar Creek, nine miles—so take your time this first day." Near the head of the train were his own two wagons, and beside the first walked Seth Wright and Keaton, in low, earnest converse. As he came up to them the bishop spoke. "I got Wes* and Alec Gregg to drive awhile so we could stretch our legs." But then came a quick change of tone, as they halted by the road. "Joel, there's no use beatin* about the bush—them devils at the ferry jest now drowned your pa." He went cold all over. Keaton, looking sympathetic but frightened, •poke next. "You ought to thank me, Brother Rae, for not telling you on the other side, when you asked me. I know better. Because, why? Because I knew you'd fly off the handle and get yourself killed,, and then your ma'd be left all alone, that's why, now—and prob'ly they'd 'a' wound up by dumping the whole passle of us bag and baggage Into the stream. And it wa'n't any use, your father bein' dead and gone." The Bishop took up the burden, •Japping him cordially on the back. ••^ome, come—hearten up, 4 now! Youivpa's been made a martyr—he's beautified his inheritance in Zion— whlnin' won't do no good." He drew himself up with a shrug, as tt to th/ow off an invisible burden, and answered, calmly: 'Tin .not whining, Bishop. Perhaps ?o« kw§re right not to tell me over ^ Uon. I'd have made trouble •••frWi all." He smiled painfully in rt to control himself. CHAPTER V I . Tift Lute of the Holy Ghost 1« Further Chastened. I n a craze of rage and grief he turned toward the river, when he heard the sharp voice of the Bishop calH»g him hack. "It ain't anf use, Joel." " ,>> "Couldn't we find his bodyt" "Not a chance la a thmuwti* . It was carried down by the current. It would meat} days and mebbe weeks. Besides, we need ypu here. Here's your ,duty. Sakes aUvef If wo only had about 20 minutes with them cusses like it was in the ol 1 days! When you're ready to be a Sou of Dan you'll know what I mean. But never mind, well see the day yet when Israel will be the head and not the tail." "My mother? Has any one told her?" "Wai, now, I'm right sorry about that, but it got out before you come over. Tarlton McKenny's boy, Nephi, rowed over in a skiff and brought the news, and some of the women went and tattled it to your ma. I guess it upset her considerable. You go up and see her." He ran forward toward the head of the train, hearing as he went words of sympathy hurried to him by those ha passed. Mounting the wagon, he clinnbed over the seat to where his mother lay. She seemed to sleep In spite of the Jolting. The driver called back to him: "She took on terrible" for a spell, Brother Rae. She's only jest now got herself pacified." He put his hand on her forehead and found it burning. She stirred and moaned and muttered disjointed sentences. He, heard his father's name, his sister's, and his own, and he knew she was delirious. He eased her bed as well as he could, and made a place for himself beside her where he could sit and take one of the pale, thin hands between his own and try to endow her with some of his abunto bring that apothecary with him." The two came up briskly a few moments later, and he stood aside for them in an agony of suspense. The Bishop turned toward him after a long look into the wagon. "She's gone to be with your pa, Joel. You can't do anything—only remember they're both happy now for bein' together." It made little stir in the busy encampment. There had been other deaths while they lay out on the marshy river flats. Others of the sorry band were now sick unto death, and many more would die on the long march across the Iowa prairie, dropping out one by one of fever, starvation, exposure. He stood helpless in this chaos of woe, shut up within himself, knowing not where to turn. Some women came presently from the other wagon to prepare the body for burial. He watched them dumbly, from a maze of incredulity, feeling >*fcat srm? wretched pretense was being acted before ia'.vL. The Bishop and Keaton came up. They brought with them the makeshift coffin. They had cut a log, split it, and stripped off its bark in two half-cylinders. They led him to the other side of the wagon, out of [sight. Then they placed the strips of bark around the body, bound them with hickory withes, and over the rough surface the women made a little show of black cloth. For the burial they could do no more than consign the body to one of the waves in the great billowy land sea about them. They had no tombstone, nor were there even rocks lo "Let ihe Wrath of God Abide Upon 'Em.'* dant life. He stayed by her until their camping place was reached. Once for a moment she opened her eyes with what seemed to him a more than normal clearness and understanding and* memory in them. Though she looked at him long without speaking, she seemed to say all there was to say, so that the brief span was full of anguish for him. He sighed with relief when the consciousness faded again from her look, and she fell to babbling ouce more of some long gone day In her girlhood. When the wagon halted he was called outside by the driver, who wished instructions regarding the camp to be made. A few moments later he was back, and raised the side of the wagon cover to let in the light. The look on her face alarmed him. It seemed to tell unmistakably that the great change was near. Already she looked moribund. An irregular gasping for breath, an occasional delirious mutter;„ were the only signs of life. She was too weak to show restlessness. Her pinched and faded face was covered with tiny cold beads. The pupils of her eyes wero strangely dilated, and the eyes themselves were glazed. There was no pulse at her wrist, and from her heart only the faintest beating could be heard. In quick terror he called to a boy working at a wagon near by. "Go for Bishop Wright and tell him make a simple cairn. He saw them bury her, and thought there was little to choose between hers and the grave of his father, whose body was being now carried noiselessly down in the bed of the river. The general locality would be kept by landmarks, by the bearing of valley bends, headlands, or the fork and angles of constant streams. But the spot itself would in a few weeks be lost. When the last office had been performed,' the prayer said, a ps,alm sung, and the black dirt thrown in, they waited by him in sympathy. His feeling was that they had done a monstrous thing; that the mother he had known was somewhere alive and well. He stood a moment so. watching the sun sink below the far rim of the prairie while the white moon swung into sight in the east. Then the Bishop led him gently by the arm to his own camp. , ' There cheer abounded. They had a huge camp fire tended by the Bishop's numerous children. Near by was a smaller fire over which the good man's four wives, able-bodied, glowing and covdlah cooked the supper. In little ways they sought to lighten his sorrow or to put his mind away from it. He talked long with the Bishop when the women had. climbed into their wagon for. the night. He amazed that good man by asking him it the Lord would not he pleased to have them, now, as they were, go hack to Nauvoo and descend upon the Gentiles to smilje them. The Bishop counselled him to have patience. "What could we do now with these few old fusees and cheap arms that we managed to smuggle across—to say nothing of half of us being down sick?" "But we are Israel, and surely Israel's God—" "The Lord had his chance the other day if he'd wanted it, when they took the town. No, Joel, he means us to gether out and become strong enough to beat 'em in our own might. But you wait;, our day wil come, and all the more credit to us then for doin' It ourselves. Then we'll consecrate the herds and flocks of the Gentile and his store and basket, his gold and silver, and his myrrh and frankincense. But for the present—well, we got to be politic and kind of modest about such doin's. The big Fan, the Sons of Dan, done good work in Missouri and better in Nauvoo, and it'll do still better where we're goln'. But we must be patient. Only next time we'll get to work quicker. If the Gentiles had been seen to quicker in Nauvoo, Joseph would be with us now. We learned our lesson there. Now the Lord has unfurled a Standard of Zion for the gathering of Israel, and this time we'll fix the Gentiles early." "Amen! Brother Seth." A look of deep hatred had clouded the older man's face as he spoke. He continued: "Let the wrath of God abide upon 'em, and remember that we'e bein' tried and proved for a purpose. And we got to be more practical. You been too theoretical yourself and too high-flyin' in your notions. The kingdom ain't to be set up on earth by faith alone. The Lord has got to have works, like I told you b.baiit the other day." "You were right, Bishop, I need to be more practical. The olive branch and not the sword would Ephraim extend to Japheth, but if—" "If Japheth don't toe the mark the Lord's will must be worked . upon him!" "So be it, Brother Seth! I am ready now to be a Son of Dan." The Bishop rose from in front of their fire and looked about. No one was near. Here and there a fire blazed, and the embers of many more could be seen dying out in the distance. The nearest camp was that of the fever-stricken man who had fled on to the boat that morning with his child in his arms. They could see his shaven head in the firelight, and a woman hovering over him as he lay on the ground with a tattered quilt fixed over him in lieu of a tent. From another group came Ihe strains of an accordion and the chorus of a hymn. "That's right," said the Bishop. "I knew you'd come to it. I saw, that long ago. Brother Brigham saw it, too. We knew you could be relied on. You want the oath, do'you?" "Yes, yes, Brother Seth. I was ready for it this morning when they told me about father." "Hold up you£ right hand and repeat after me: " 'In the name of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, I do covenant and agree to support the first Presidency of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, in all things right or wrong; I will faithfully guard them and report to them the acts of all men as far as in my power lies; I will assist in executing all the decrees of the first President, Patriarch, or President of the Twelve, and I will cause all who speak evil of the Presidency or Heads of the Church to die the death of dissenters or apostates, unless they speedily confess and repent, for pestilence, persecution, and death shall follow the enemies of Zion. I will be a swift herald of salvation and messenger of peace to the Saints/ and" I will never make known the secret! purposes of this Society called the Sons of Dan, my life being the forfeiture in a fire of burning tar and brimstone. So help me God and keep me steadfast.'" * He repeated the words without hesitation, with fervor in his voice, and the light of a holy and implacable zeal in his face. "Now I'll give you the blessing, too. Wait till I get my bottle of oil." He stepped to the nearest wagon, felt under the cover and came back with a small bottle in his hand. ''Stand jest here—so—now!" They stood at the edge of the wav« ering firelight, and he put his hand on the other's head. " 'In the name of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and by the authority of the Holy Priesthood, the first President, Patriarch, and High Priest of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints, representing the first, second and third Gods in Heaven, the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, I do now anoint you with holy consecrated oil, and by the Imposition of my hands do ordain and set you apart for the holy calling whereunto you are called; that you may consecrate the riches of the Gentiles to the House of Israel, bring swift destruction upon apostate sinners, and execute the decrees of Heaven without fear of what man can do with you. So mote it be. Amen/ "There, boy, if I ain't mistaken, that's the best work for Zion that I done for some time. Now be off to your rest!" "Good night, Bishop, and thank you for being kind to me! The Church Poet called me the Lute of the.Holy Ghost, but I feel J;o-night that I must be another Lion of the Lord. Good night!" CHAPTER VII. Some Inner Mysteries Are Expounded. The hosts of Israel had been forced to tarry for the winter on the banks of the Missouri. A few were on the east side at Council Bluffs on the land of the Pottawattamie Indians. Across the river on the land of the Omahaa the greater part of the force hid settled at what was known as Winter Quarters. Here in huts of logs, turf, and other primitive materials, their town had been laid out with streets and byways, a large council-house, a mill, a stockade, and blockhouses. The Indians had received them with great friendliness, feeling with them a common cause of grievance, since the heaAy hand of the Gentile had pushed them also to this bleak frontier. To this settlement early in November came the last train from Nauvoo,, its members wearied and wasted by the long march, but staunch in their faith and with hope undimmed. If was told in after years how there had leaped from the van of this train a very earnest young man, who had at once sought an audience with Brigham | Young and certain other members of j the Twelve who had chanced to be 1 present at the train's arrival; and i how, being closeted with these, he had eagerly inquired if it might not be the will of the Lord that they should go no farther into the wilderness, but stand their ground and give battle to the Gentiles forthwith. He made the proposal as one who had a - flawless faith that the God of Battles would be with them, and he appeared to believe that something might be ! done that very day to force the mat- | ter to an issue. When he had made j his proposal, he waited in a modest I attitude to hear their views of it. To j his chagrin, all but two of those who , had listened laughed. One of these ! two, Bishop Snow—a man of holy aspect whom the Church Poet had felicltiously entitled the Entablature of Truth—had looked at him searchingly, then put his hand upon his own head and shaken it hopelessly to the others.

There was no false pride about Lucinda Madden and she had no illusions at the age of 46 when she accepted Hiram Gregg's offer of marriage. She was a hard-featured and sharp-tongued person, and she knew it. Also, however, she knew her capabilities as cook and housekeeper, and she was well aware that Hiram Gregg's slow wits and shiftless ways had made him anything but a favorite with the feminnc'porion of the village. She found-things to like in Hiram, by looking hard for them, but she proposed to keep him well in hand. "Well, Lucindy," said Hiram, one evening, two or three days before the wedding, '"here we are, going to be married, after all, both of us. I guess Lucindy, I'm about your first offer, ain't I?" "You are," said Lucinda, firmly, "and I'm your last offer, Hiram, god Quiet Missionary Work.

Suzanne trailed her fingers idly over the piano keys in a little impromptu prelude of troublous chords before she answered the query. : "I suppose it is," she said, crossly, "I'm sure I can't tell whether it's real antique or not. It looks old and dusty and is all covered with heavy carving, if you mean that sort of thing. Why, «e*?." she turned to the questioner •with sudden energy, "I wouldn't have thought a thing about it if he had shown it to me or even mentioned it. •He told me about everything else in the house, and I'd never have known a ! (thing about this if I hadn't told Nora I tp clean out that 'catch all,' as she j •calls it. at the turn of the garret stairs. *There is a large windowless space over the dining-room wing, and it was in there." "And locked," concluded Bess, positively. "Every drawer. I asked Nora how Jong it had been there, and she said it had come with Rob's trunks from home, while we were on our honeyandbn. I'm not a bit curious—" She paused. "Of course not," assented Bess warmly, "or suspicious." J'Only interested." Bess nodded her head wisely over "the interested sigh. "It is kind of mysterious, Bob's not [telling yott a word about it, and hiding it in thene out of sight, and then the It Was Bob. fact of it being locked shows that .someone didn't want it opened." As she gave her conclusive point of logic Bess r.rose. She was pretty and ipetite, with a decisive tilt to her chin, and the confidence of IS in her blue -eyes. "Of course, you'll do as you please, Sue. You always did. But if I had only been married a month and-had found a locked desk in my hou^Pthat I knew nothing of, I know what I'd do." Young Mrs. Sheldon left the piano with an impatient movement. She was tall and slender beside her sister, fcnd the indefinable charm of a bride was visible in her dainty negligee toilette of white crepon. "I believe absolutely in Bob," she declared. Bess raised her eyebrows and smiled mischievously. "Of course you do. It may be only some old love letters or souvenirs that he doesn't care to part with. Do you remember Adelaide Gifford?" "That was two years ago." Bess laughed. "Good-by, sis. Believe in Bob all you want to. He is a dear, and if it were l, I'd hunt a locksmith, all the same." Mr3. Sheldon stood at the .window and watched the small girlish figure as it vanished down the street among the fluttering snowflakes. It was dusk. The room was unlighted as yet, and a sudden sense of loneliness stole over her in the semi-gloom, the first she had experienced since the joyous wedding of a month ago. If the affinity of moods and colors were true, she was ,n harmony with the soft velvet gray of the twilight tone that was stealing aver the world. New Year's eve, and Bob away. The tears blinded her eyes. Of course, it was business, merely a flying trip to N'ew York for the firm, made all the more imperative by his neglect of business during the honeymoon, but she Telt a vague rebellion 1¾ her heart against even the aeparit'on of a few days. And there .was the locked desk. Bess* words and arguments ran cwiftly through her mind. Come t ? think, Bob had told her not to tire herself by rummaging while ho was away. Rummaging! That meant hunting In the garret and running the risk of discovering the desk. And Bess had spoken of Adelaide Gifford. There had been talk of a summer engagement, she remembered. Adelaide was older than Bob. Some way she had always blamed her for the romance, and had looked upon Bob as An Impressionable youngster. But if he had cherished her letters aud keepsakes, then he must have loved her. Adelaide was engaged to old Mr. Thurston now—Copper Thurston, the boys called him. Perhaps, after all, Bob had been jealous of the coppermade millions, and had married her in a fit of pique. She turned from the window with sudden determination. It lacked half an hour of dinner time. A lonely dinner for a bride, she thought, as she wont upstairs, her first New Year's eve. Perhaps by the time the midnight bells rang out she might be rifaking a few strange resolutions for the coming year. It was dark on the garret stairs. She stopped at the door of Bob's dressing- room and took a candlestick from the mantel. It was a wedding .gift—a Japanese bronze griffin, with outspread wings and spiral, sinuous tail. As she held it to the gas jet to light the candle something fell on the rug at her feet and she picked it up. It was a small, old-fashioned ordinary brass key. She looked at it hesitatingly. It had never been on Bob's ring, she knew. The space between the wings of the bronze griffin was a clever idea of concealment. She set her lips closely and went up the garret stairs with candlestick in one hand and the key in the other. Half way there was a turn at a small landing, and it was at the angle made by this that she had found the little low door leading to the "catch all." She opened it now and entered, half closing the door after her. . The desk was pushed to one side with some trunks and aboxes. It was a quaint, antique affair of mahogany, severely colonial in style. The main body was crescent-shaped, supported on hand-carved legs. There were four drawers, two on each side, and a small, low cabinet of pigeon-holes on top. Suzanne stood motionless before it fpr several minutes, trying to make up her mind to insert the key. When she did so, in the lock of the nearest top drawer, her hand trembled slightly and she held her breath. The key turned easily and the draw was ready for inspection, but she did not open it. Thoughts whirled like the fluttering snowflakes through her mind, and she stood again irresolute. She had told Bess that she believed absolutely in Bob. Higher than her love for him had been her unfaltering belief and confidence in him. It was the very keystone of her marriage faith, and yet, at the first blow of suspicion, it gave way. Bess was a child, with the impulsive judgment of a child. She had been wrong to even tell ner of the desk, wrong to discuss Bob or his motives with her at all, or to listen for an instant to any doubt of him, even in jest. She must have faith, and wait. He had probably locked the desk against the curiosity of the servants and had forgotten it in the hurry and excitement of the wedding. She must believe in him. The mere fact that they were married did not give her a coroner's right to hold a post-mortem over his dead past. There was the sound of a footstep on the stairs, and she relocked the drawer quickly. "I'll be down in a moment, Nora," she called. "You may serve dinner." The voice that answered was familiar and masculine. She nearly let the candle fall in her surprised recognition of it. "It's only I, Sue. What on earth a r t you doing In there?" She stood mute and motionless as he bent his head and entered the low door. It was Bob, and he was smiling and happy, his clear eyes seeking for the glad welcome he expected. "I only ran down for to-night," he added. "I couldn't let you face the first New Year alone, sweetheart." His arms reached for her, but she shook her head and handed him the key. "I haven't used it," she said, brokenly. "But, oh, Bob, I came so near it. You don't have to tell me what's in the old thing. I'll believe in you just the same, and I don't want to know." "Know what?" he demanded. "Don't cry, Sue." He drew her to him tenderly. "What's up, anyhow?" "That desk," she sobbed. "It's locked." "Is it?" He stared at the desk in bewilderment. "Well, the key was on my mantel, dear. You found it all right, didn't you? Couldn't you unlock it?" "I could, but—but I don't want to know your private affairs." She tried to draw herself away, but he took her hands and held them from her tearwet face so that he could see her eyes. "Sue, darling," he said. "You blessed little Mrs. Bluebeard, that desk is a wedding present to you from Grandmother. Hadleigh. It's been in the family since the year one, I guess, and there isn't a single thing in those drawers. It came the last minute the day we were married, and was so heavy aud unwieldy I told father to send it along with my things and have it put away somewhere until we came heme. And I laid the key in the griffin for safe-keeping. What did you think was in it?" But Suzanne silenced further questioning in her own effectual way. The keystone of her happiness was firm and immovable. But as they went downstairs to dinner she registered one New Year's vow in her heart. In the future she would let love laugh at locksmiths. fle hAtteni to repentance who ha»Uly judges.—Publtut Syrua. TO cvam A COLD i* owa S A T Take LAXATIVE BUOMOQuloioaTablaU.

Greeting The late Edward Atkinson used to tell the following story at his own expense: In his boyhood he was one of a number of boys who used to play ball on the Boston common, which was then against the law. At regular intervals old Erastus Clapp. the constable, would bear down upon the trespassers and put them to flight. The boys used to have great fun with this rather choleric old man—Disastrous Clapp the boys dubbed him. One day after Mr. Atkinson had grown up into a prosperous and respected business man, while passing along a Boston street in company with a friend, be recognized In a bent and wizened old man the likeness of his old acquaintance, Constable Clapp. Mr. Atkinson immediately addressed the old fellow. "Don't you remember me, Mr. Clapp?" he asked. The old man leaned on his stick and surveyed Mr. Atkinson coldly. "Naw," he finally answered, and started to hobble on. "Why, I'm Eddie'Atkinson, whom you used to chase off the common years ago." Clapp glared at him suspiciously, and finally put an end to the interview, much to the amusement of Mr. Atkinson's friend, by saying sharply: "Well, sir, no honest boy evej had cause to run from me." Luxury for Young Aristocrat. The duke of Bedford has presented Ix>rd Tavistock, his eldest son, with a silver-mounted motor car for his use while at Oxford university. Come to Congressman's Idea. Some years ago Lemuel Ely Qulgg, than a congressman, expressed the opinion that the police commissioner of New Yorl: city should be "an intelligent despot." The idea was ridiculed then, but - Mr. Quigg derives some satisfaction from the knowledge that the grand jury of New York county has made a recommendation approaching somewhat closely to his view. The commissioner, says the jury, should hold office for at least ten years and should be removable only upon proof of charges which he has had opportunity to meet. The Sunny South. Now when all outdoor farm work has ceased in the north, the term "sunny south" and all that it means, appeals with full force to the northern farmer as he realizes that with him it is a case of remaining indoors for the next several months consuming everything that has been produced during the growing season. In the "sunny south" something can be raised every month- in the year, and practically every day can be spent out doors. No blizzards. No sunstrokes. Cattle-raising is very profitable. Large profits are made with little labor in growing fruits, vegetables, etc., for northern markets. Strawberries and cantaloupes are great revenue getters. Water unsurpassed. Work plentiful. Lands cheap and productive. For reliable information, address G. A. Park. General Immigration and Industrial Agent, Louisville & Nashville Railroad Company, Louisville, Ky. Claim Nearly Cost Life. Fred McNulty, of this city, had a terrible experience while holding down a claim which he has several miles east of here. He went to the claim just before the big blizzard of last week. The weather previously had been mild, and McNulty had no store of fuel in the shack. The storm was so fierce that he could not make his way home, so he went to bed in order to keep from freezing, to death. For three days the storm raged, and Mc- Nulty lay covered up to his ears, without a bite to eat and only a small quantity of water. When at last the storm subsided he made his way to a neighbor's, a mile distant, freezing his face and ears while en route. When he finally reached Minot he was compelled to take to his bed as a result of his experience.—Miuo't Correspondence Duluth Herald. DISFIGURING SKIN HUMOR. Impossible to Get Employment, as Face and Body Were Covered with Sores—Cured by Cuticura. Give Her a Diary. A good Christmas present for a young wife is a nice diary. She will write in it every day for two weeks. Then such things as these will begin to crop out on its fair white pages: Recipe for waffles. Must get two yards ruching. Paid 12 cents to have teakettle mended. Don't forget lining for kimono. Sold old pair John's pants to ragman for 22 cents. By and by the diary will switch off and become an account book, and it will end its career as a scrapbook for cake recipes.— Judge. Many people have excellent morals but the most odious ways.

"Since the year 1894 I have been troubled with a very bad case of eczema which I have spent hundreds of dollars trying to cure, and I went to the hospital, but they failed to cure me, and it was getting worse all the time. Five weeks ago my wife bought a box of Cuticura Ointment and one cake of Cuticura Soap, and I am pleased to say that I am now completely cured and well. It was impossible for me to get employment, as my face, head and body were covered with It. Th6 eczema first appeared on the top of my head, and it had worked all the way around down the back of my neck and around to my throat, down my body and around the hips. It itched so I would be obliged to scratch it, and the flesh was raw. I am r now all well, and I will be pleased to recommend the Cuticura Remedies to all persons who wish a speedy and permanent cure of skin diseases." Thomas M. Rossiter, 290 Prospect Street, East Orange, N. J., Mar. 30, 1905. Bull Was Up to Date. "Good gracious," said the woman chauffeur, "that bull seems awfully angry, doesn't he?" • "It's your red automobile, ma'am," explained the farmer. She flushed and bit her lip. "1 know it is an old-fashioned 1904 model," she murmured, "but who'd have thought a stupid old country bull would notice that?" A Great Outside Remedy. Most pains are of local origin—a "crick" in the back, a twinge of rheumatism, a soreness all over arising from a cold—are all cured by outside applications. The quickest, safest and most certain method is Allcock's Plaster, known the world over as a universal remedy for pain. They never fail, they act promptly, they are clean and cheap. You can go right ahead with your work while the healing process goes on. Sixty years' use has given them a great reputation. The letter carrier expects everybody on his route to take things as they come. The American Adder. A full-grown adder may measure two feet in length and about sixjnehes around the thickest part of its body. Its movements are sluggish, and of course the universal Idea prevailing among the natives of this country that it is capable of transferring its head from one extremity to the other once every six months is due dimply to superstition. The fact is that the tail of this snake does not terminate in a point as with ophidians generally, but is stumpy and resembles the head so much that it is difficult for an observer situated at a distance of a few yards to distinguish the one from the other, hence the story of its being twoheaded, the fallacy of which no intelligent observer could fall to detect.— The Pioneer.

Consequently at this season the priests and people kept a sleepless vigil at the river's shore, watching for the miraculous rise which- should bring such riches to the whole land. When the "night of the drop" came, the priests cleared the altars of old ashes and lighted the sacred fires for the new year. Every one of the faithful carried a coal from the altar to light the fire at his own hearth, and from end to end the land was ablaze with light. The people put off their old garments and arrayed themselves in white, anointing their heads with sacred oil, crowning themselves with flowers and bearing palms in their hands, while chants and Bongs and fasting and processions filled the homes. Once is used to be very popular to give New Year's presents; but now so much more attention is paid to Christmas, and «very one receives so many lovely things then, that our American boys and girls cannot complain if they do not get presents a week later, as did their mothers and fathers. However, if they lived In France, New Year's day would be a great occasion, especially for girls, for there every man or boy gives some gift, no matter how small, to his friends. No one paying a call would think of going empty-handed, and little French girls at Bchool on the 2d of January count up how many presents they received, just as our girls do after Valentine's d a y . v '<• ''"'• * • •• • '> •'*•"'"> A favorite gtft Is candy.

"This is the new year," said Mrs. Brown, as she and Brown'sat down to dinner, "and perhaps we ought to make 'some little changes for 1907." "I am willing," he replied. "Yes, I have been thinking that I would make a few changes." "That is nice of you. You know that you swear and that I don't like It at all. It will be so sweet and kind and considerate to give it up for my sake." "Give up swearing! Not on your life!" "What, then, did you mean by change?" "Why, I have been allowing you five dollars per week as pm money, and I know that you simply fool most of it away. One of the'changes contemplated was to cut the,;-sum in half." "Samuel Brown!"." exclaimed the wife, as she knocked on her plate with her fork to emphasize her words, "don't make any mistake on your wife, May.

Like Many Others of Our Customs, They Were Imported from China. The custom of making New Year's calls, which had a long run in America, and is still extant, came originally from China, where such calls are one of the main features of the brilliant and lengthy New Year's celt ebration. Every Chinaman pays : a visit to each of his superiors, and receives one from each of his inferiors. Images of gods are carried in procession to the beating of a deafening gong, and mandarins go by hundreds to the emperor and that apparently much-maligned sovereign, the empress dowager, with congratulatory addresses. Their robes are gorgeously embroidered, and are heavy with gold. The younger people call upon the elder. Children call upon their parents. Pupils pay their respects to their teachers. A light collation is offered every visitor, but it is to he noted, no wine is served. Tea takes the place of any stronger drink. as with joyous hearts and smiling faces they romp and play—when in health—and hew conducive to health the games in which they indulge, the outdoor life they enjoy, the cleanly, regular habits they should be taught to form and the wholesome diet of which'they should partake. How tenderly their health should be preserved, not by constant'medication, but by careful avoidance of every medicine of an injurious or objectionable nature, and if at anytime a remedial agent is required, to assist nature, only those cf known excellence should be used; remedies which are pure and wholesome and truly beneficial in, effect, like the. pleasant laxative remedy, Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs,has comeinto general favor in many millions of well informed families, whose estimate of its quality and,excellence is based upon personal knowledge and use. Syrup of Figs has also met with the approval of physicians generally, because they know it is wholesome, simple and gentle in its action. We inform all reputable physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs, obtained, by an' •original method, from certain plants known to them to act most beneficially and presented in an agreeable syrup in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to promote the pleasant taste; .therefore it is not a secret remedy and hence we are free to refer to all well informed physicians, who do not approve of patent medicines and never favor indiscriminate self-medication. Please to remember and teach your children ajso that the genuine Syrup of Figs always has the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—plainly printed on the front of every package and that it is for sale in bottles of one size only. If any dealer offers any other than' the regular Fifty cent size, or having printed thereon the name of any other company, do not accept it. If you fail to get the genujne you will not get its beneficial effects. Every family should always, have a bottle on hand, as it is equally beneficial for the parents and the children, whenever a laxative remedy is required. • • • • "* \W I i- rv H 3 •4U J ,.-1 ^ % ^,**.~ i f i Business Polnttrs.

Pinckney, Livingston County, Michigan, Thur sday, Dec. 27, 1917 NiM AIRPLANE ROUTE TO SWEDEN ^Treileborg and Sasanitx to Be the Termini of the Proposed Line Connecting With Germany. The following bulletin on Treileborg and Sassnitz, the termini of the proposed Swedish-German airplane roots, fwhlch assumes special significance in the light of recent developments In .the diplomatic relations between Germany and Sweden, has been Issued by National Geographic society. Between Treileborg, the most southerly town in '.he Kingdom of Sweden, und Sassnitz, a summer resort on the northeastern shore of the German island of Rugen, express steamers in times of peace make regular trip* across this arm of the Baltic in four hours. This is the chief water link in the 24-hour express service between Stockholm and Berlin. Neither 'town would be of any importance were it not for the fact that they are the termini of this steamer service. Treileborg is a quaint old town of some 10,000 inhabitants, lying 20 miles southeast of Maimo, capital of Skane, teh most populous province in all Sweden. It is only 16 miles from Malmo to the Danish capital, Copenhagen. Sassnitz is one of several popular seaside resorts on the Island of Rugen, the largest insular possession of Germany, having an area about equal to GET $ 8 0 0 A YEAR?

HAD SECRET WIRELESS PLANT Expose of Kaiser's Double Dealing Considered Likely to Result in Argentine Declaring W a r . Washington—Declaration of war against Germany by Argentina was considered almost certain in Latin-American diplomatic circles as the result of new evidence of German trickery, disclosed simultaneously in Washington and Buenos Aires. Impetus was given the diplomatic situation by the publication of another series of telegrams between the notorious Count Luxburg, of Spurlos Versenkt fame, and Berlin foreign office. An indication of the means used by Count Lu'cburg to evade detection in communicating with his government is found in one dispatch where reference is made to his fear that the "secret wire" had been discovered, Another refers to an interruption of his wire to Mexico. A telegram dated July 20 last announcd the completion of a "receiving plant" and asked for the wave length of the great wireless station at Nauen. Luxburg, former German charge in Buenos Aires, in a message dated August 1, last, informed his foreign office that President Irigoyen of Argentina had at last made up his mind to negotiate a secret agreement with Chile and Bolivia for protection against North America. Another telegram intimated an attempt would be made to include Peru, the plan was to be perfected, according to the Luxburg communication of August 1, "before the conference idea is taken up again." "The conference idea" is assumed to be the proposed Latin-American neutrality conference advocated by President Carranza and widely discussed in South America. The secret agreement referred to may explain recent South American reports of President Irigoyen's proposals for a league of South American nations. The messages, 40 in number, were made public by the state department through an agreement with the Argentine government and were accompanied by a statement from Foreign Min ister Puerreydon, in which he says the "inaccuracies" of the German charge's report are so surprising that no epithet will fit them." The messages were sent to Argentine- soon after the state department gave out the first scries in which L'lxburg advised his government to sink Argentine ships without trace, but heretofore demands for their publication have been in vain. The first series were transmitted through the Swedish legation at Buenos Aires, but the means of communication used for the latest batch sent during July, August and September, was not disclosed, except that some of the first series telegrams v e r e included in ones made public last week. Most of the correspondence given cut deals directly with the negotiations then in progress over the sinking of Argentine ships by German submarines. Before the messages fell into the hands of the American government Germany virtually had settled the mattar by agreeing to pay indemnity and to treat Argentine ships according to law.

About 10,000 pairj were in the consignment, and most of these were of the largo sizes needed. However, this consignment is-only about one-half th^ amount r< quisitioncd. Hardly had the cars been shifted on to the siding at the proper warehouse before the unloading and checking began, and almost simultaneously supply wagons drove up to the building and carted away the shoes to be distributed among the men. BRITAINS WAR AIMS OUTLINED Lloyd George Demands Restoration and I n d e m n i t y . London—Premier Lloyd George last v\eek gave in the house of commons Great Britain's minimum condition for peace. Briefly it is: There can be no lasting peace unless Germany gives security that the world will be safe hereafter from German aggression, There can be no such security unless Prussian militarism is forever destroyed and unless the German govfrnment is democratized. Supposing that these two fundamental conditions were fulfilled, which they arp not, then to obtain peace the first thing Germany must do is; To restore completely all i n v a d e territories and to make full comp' ns- ation. The premier said ;he future fate of German colonic.-, should be left *o the decision of an international peace conference. "At that conference, however," he added, "the wishes, desires and inter csts of the inhabitants of the German colonies must be a dominant fac'or in the settlement of their future government." He continued: "The future trustees of the German colonies must consider the sentiment^ of the people thems- lve-—whether they may desire to return to their former mastf rs. "Mesopotamia and Arm°nia shall never be returned to Turkish rule. "The success in Palastine will affect the world's history. Jerusalem will never be restored to the Turks."

With Russia to give the movement an added impetus, the Kaiser is staging another effort to make a favorable peace before the strength of America is thrown in the balance against him. Circulation here of unofficial reports from neutral sources of the Kaiser's terms created much Interest. Briefly they are: To leave the disposition of Alsace- Lorraine to a plebiscite of inhabitants. England to pay Germany for her lost African colonies and the money to be used for the rehabilitation of Belgium, Serbia, Rumania and northern France. Russian provinces bordering the Baltic, the Black sea and Prussia to become independent under a Gorman plan. Poland to be called an independent state under Austrian suzerainty. Disarmament, freedom of the seas and commerce to be left to the peace conference.

Detroit—Discovery of three men attempting to steal coal from cars on Grand Trunk tracks at the junction with Woodland ayenue, Hamtramck. about midnight Saturday, cost John Iganiak, a railroad detective, his life. When the men found that Iganiak knew what they were doing, they open ed fire at him with revolvers. The detective was wounded five times and died in Samaritan hospital early Sunday morning. After the shooting, Iganiak crawled about 200 feet to his home, and collapsed on the doorstep. His wife immediately notified John W. Woznack, chief of police of the Grand Trunk railway, who arrived in time to take the dying man's statement just before he became unconscious. He recognized two of the men. 46 DIE IN L & N.

INJURY BY RODENTS Well Fed Rats Breed Often and Have Very Large Litters. INJURE PRODUCE IN STORES Not Only Foodstuffs and Forage, but Textiles, Clothing and Leather Goods A r e Often R u i n e d — C u t Off Food Supply. (Pr epai e J by the L'ruled Slau-s Department at Agriculture.) The effect of tin abundance of food on the breeding of rodents should be kept in mind. Well-fed rats mature quickly, breed often, and have large litters. Poorly fed rats, on the contrary, reproduce less frequently and have smaller litters. In addition, scarcity of food makes measures for destroying the animals far more effective. Merchandise in Stores.—In all parts of the country there is a serious economic drain in the destruction by rats and mice of merchandise held for sale by dealers. Not only foodstuffs and forage, but textiles, cloihing, and leather goods are often ruined. This loss is due mainly to the faulty buildings in which the stores are kept, j si Often it would be a measure of economy to tear down the old structures and replace them by new ones. However, even the old buildings may often be repaired so as to make them praeunloaded at wharves or depots, food liable to attack by rats may be temporarily safeguarded by being placed in rut-proof cages, or pounds, constructed of wire netting. Wooden boxes containing reserve food held In depots for a considerable time or Intended for shipment by sea may be made rat-proof by light coverings of metal along the angles. This plan has long been in use to protect naval stores on ships and in warehouses. It Is based on the fact tlmt rats do not gnaw the plane surface of hard materials, but attack doors, furniture and boxes at the angles only. Packing Houses.—Packing houses and abattoirs are often sources from which rats secure subsistence, especially where meats are prepared for market in old buildings. In old-style cooling rooms with double walls of wood and sawdust insulation, always a source of annoyance because of rat infestation, the utmost vigilance is required to prevent serious loss of meat products. On the other hand, [lacking houses with modern construction and sanitary devices have no trouble from rats or mice. Garbage and Waste.—Since much of the food of rats consists of garbage 'and other waste materials, it is not enough to bar the animals from markets, granaries, warehouses and private food stores. (larbage and offal of all kinds must be so disposed of that rats eanma obtain them. In cities ;i ml towns an efficient sysi tern of garbage collection and disposal should be established by ordinances. Waste from markets, hotels, cafes and households should be collected in covered metal ree. ptneles and frequently emptied. (larbage should never be dumped in or near towns, but should CAGE TRAP WITH SPLENDID CATCH OF RATS. iically mt-proof; and foodstuffs, as flour, seeds, and meats, may always be protected in wire cages at slight expense. The public should be protected from insanitary stores by a system of rigid inspection. Household Supplies.—Similar care should be exercised in the home to protect household supplies from mice and rats. Little progress in ridding the premises of these animals can be mnde so long as they have access to supplies of food. Cellars, kitchens, and pantries often furnish subsistence not only to rats that inhabit the dwelling, but to ninny that come from outside. Food supplies may always be kept from rats and mice if placed in inexpensive rat-proof containers covered with wire netting. Sometimes all that is needed to prevent serious waste is the application of a defective part of the building. Produce in Transit.—Much loss of fruits, vegetables, and other produce occurs in transit by rail and on ships. Most of the damage is done at wharves and in railway stations, but there is also considerable in ships' holds, especially to perishable produce brought from warm latitudes. Much of this may be prevented by the use of ratproof cages at the docks, by the careful fumigation of seagoing vessels at the end of each voyage, and by the frequent fumigation of vessels in coastwise trade; but still more by replacing old and decrepit wharves and station platforms with modern ones built of concrete. Where cargoes are being loaded or GIVE FEED ANIMALS RELISH be utilized or promptly destroyed by tire. Hats find abundant food in country slaughterhouses; reform in the management of these is badly needed. Such places are centers of rat propagation. It Is n common practice to leave offal of slaughtered animals to be eaten by rats and swine, and this is the chief means of perpetuating trichinae In pork. The law should require that offal be promptly cremated or otherwise disposed of. Country slaughter-houses should be as cleanly and as constantly inspected as ahbatoirs. Another important source of rat food is found In remnants of lunches left by employees in factories, stores and public buildings. This food, which alone is sufficient to attract and sustain a small army of rats, is commonly left in waste baskets or other open receptacles. Strictly enforced, rules requiring all remnants of food to be deposited in covered metal vessels would make trapping far more effective. Military training camps, unless subjected to rigid discipline in the matter of disposal of garbage and waste, soon become centers of rat infestation. Waste from camps, deposited in covered metal cans and collected dally, should be removed far from the camp itself and ePher burned or utilized ID approved modern ways. W h i l e Preference for Certain Food Is Formed by Habit, It Is Better to Cater to I t Ingredients in Eggs. Lime, nitrogen and phosphoric acid ' are the principal ingredients in eggs. economical gains. If he does oaf watch closely he is likely to wast* feed while some of the animals are not getting enoueh. Animals a"re much like human beings in that they have their own Individual preference for certain foods. While this preference is formed by habit, to get the best returns with the feeds, it is best generally to cater to the animal's appetite. Some horses will not do well without oats In the ration. Others do not especially care for oata, but require corn, some require more hay than others, some must have ground feeds. To get the best results such animals should be humored. Our problem In feeding la to watch tbe animals and see that they get the feeds they require and no more. Feed left In the trough or scattered on the ground out of reach of animals does not produce. Even In feeding cattle a skillful feeder will soon learn the different ani tnal's peculiarities and meet their reqii' *i «uch a «*nr as to get DRY FEED INSTEAD OF SLOP Doesn't Freeze Up to Insult Appetite of Hog in -Winter—Germ* and Odors Are Avoided. The farmer whose pigs have last their avidity for slop should try ft ing the slopsruff dry. Many a tl pigs may be found fastidiously nosL. through thick slop, when if dry middlings be placed in a trough hard by they will devour it In fierce competition. Some men like milk toast and some men don't like milk toast; that la the way with pigs.

EASY TO GROW FLOWERS AND SHRUBS. Why should not the playground at school be made one of the beautiful places of the school district? Here the children spend most of their wakeful hours, more during the school hours than at home. These hours of study and play mean much more when their surroundings tire conducive to putting forth their best efforts. The green leaves oi the spring, the colored foliage of the fall, the sumac, asters and goldenrod, all add something to creating a more cheerful spirit. This Is the day of popular education. Every condition that will be most favorable to all should be provided if within means, [n most cases those things which have most real beauty to commend them can be acquired with the least pecuniary expense. What does it cost to plant a tree or a shrub? How expensive is it to set out u flower? Very little time need be taken to clean up a schoolyard if there are willing hands. Every boy and girl can he made willing to help ; t h e r e are always patrons who are willing to assist if they know what you want done, A country sehoolhouse in western Ohio hat! bush roses, japonica, flowering quince, snowballs, sweet clover, bridal wreath, etc., set in masses in the corners and near the sides so that the playground was not encroached upon. Those which do not grow very high arc set in front. The hardy hydrangia and trumpet-vine are suitable for spring p l a n t i n g ; they should be on every school ground. Near the front porch of the school (if t h e school hoasrs a porch), or near the sehoolhouse on a trellis have crimson or the Dorothy Perkins ramblers. Plant hardy chysanthenimus near the fences. To hide the foundations plant several h u n d r e d s of tulips and hyacinths and h a v e plenty of crocuses peeping through the grass. All that is necessary to do work of thN kind is in arouse a little interest among the children and patrons. The war gardens <>f last year have demonstrated how eagerly the ehiidren fall in with the plans of their elders and how successful they can be in this particular line of endeavor, The children should be permitted to do most of tho work, because it is a joy to a child to know that he has assisted in doing good work. The tulip and hyacinth bulbs should he planted six inches deep and about three or four inches apart. They might he planted eight or ten inches deep if the soil had been loose. After blooming, tulips can be cut off and geraniums or co'eus can be planted for the summer tit the same ground, After frost, tulips and hyacinths should remain in the ground over winter to be ready for the spring blooming. Are fences necessary to protect the. plants? Not at all. Public sentiment will pro! et a flower if the public, through it>> ehiidren, helped in the planting. Yes, there is an exceptional indifferent om- now and then, but the public that 1ms a beautiful school ground and ha-1 experienced a new feeling because of it will take care of the indifferent one. <~?.'<nS Should Keep Piano Dry.

"What makes you get up so early? It isn't breakfast time yet. It is so warm and cozy here in bed. I'm going to lie? here and think tip lots of good resolutions fur tiie ni'w year. Then I can write them out after breakfast. Why don't ymi make some resolutions, Agnes?" "I don't know. ] hadn't thought about it," replied the little girl.

Freddie had ] been restored to good humor, and everybody seemed very happy as t h e y ! gathered around the first morning ; meal of the new year. Fright faces, | merry voices and good wishes made j it a oharmin:.' family group. ! Dora and Amies cleared the table when the meal was finished, for there1 was no servant in the house, and the two sisters helped much with the work, that mamma might get more time to sew. i "Shall I wash or wipe the dishes?" ( asked Dora. ; "()h. I'll wash them, and you can wipe them," said Agnes, "for you'd rather, and I don't care." "Well, then I'm going upstairs to write out my New Year's resolutions; I'll be down by the time you have the dishe* ready to rin^e," and Dora ran up to her room.

"Dora followed her sister downstairs, thinking she would put the rooms In order and feed the canary before Agnes returned.

After making Baby Fred happy with a big block house, Dora slipped upstairs and brought down her paper of "Now Year's Resolutions" and quietly laid it on the parlor fire. "I'll keep my eyes and ears open, as Agnes does, and try to bo as pleasant as she is. That will be better than writing out a thousand resolutions!''' —Youth's Companion.

An attempt to save the property of Mlchigaa soldiers from being sold for taxes is being made tor the boys at Camp MacArthur, Waco, Texas. Lieut. William Harcourt, a Detroit attorney and member of the 20th machine gun battalion, has been assured by Detroit's corporation counsel that action will be taken to relieve soldiers of special taxes until after the war. A soldier at Waco who owns property in Detroit received a notice that unless a sidewalk assessment was paid his property would be sold for taxes. j His entire savings were invested and I he had no means of raising sufficient ! money to make the payment. Other cases of a like nature were discovered, and Lieut. Harcourt took the matter up with Detroit. Soldiers have been receiving notices from holders of land contracts also, that unless they paid up arrears and kept their payments going regularly they would lose their investments. Several men who own homes have been driven so desperate by the notices that they have made every sacrifice to keep up their payments, fearing their families would be evicted. It is understood that the Michigan law protects a soldier, but the holders of these contracts do not know this law, or, knowing it, will endeavor to Lans'.ng. Michigan state troops, as the locally known Home Guards are technically called, will be fully outfitted by the state, if the United States governmen: does not announce shortly what it is going to do toward equipping the troops, which have been organized to take the place of the National Guard.

THE TRUTH ABOUT ECZEMA AND PILES Thousands and thousands of people, says Peterson, are learning every week that one 30 cent l>ox of Peterson's Ointment will j abolish Eczema and banish piles, and the grateful letters I receive every day are worth more to me than money. I had Eczema for many years on my head and could not get anything to do it any good. I saw your ad and got one box and I owe you many thanks for the good it has done me. There isn't a blotch on my head now, and I couldn't help but thank Peterson, for the cure is great, Mrs. Mary Hill, 420 Third Ave., Pittsburgh, Pa. I have had itching piles for 15 years and Peterson's is the only ointment that relieves me, besides the piles seem to have gone. A. B. Ruger, 1127 Washington Avenue, Racine, Wis. - , , , Use Peterson's Ointment for old aores, salt rheum and all skin diseases.

At the last session of congress, some ordnance was voted for the use of state troops, but this is not available. It is expected now that the present congress will go further than mere ordnance and will make some announcement federalizing them, to the extent of furnishing equipment. Pending the action of the government the purchase of equipment by the state is considered unwise by the military board as the state might find itself with a lot of stuff on hand for which it will have no use It is more than likely though, if the national authorities fall to provide equipment in a month, the state will purchase the complete equipment. It is figured that in that length of time something definite will at least be started in Washington. sold a lot he had inherited. Lieut Harcourt will compile the law on this subject and publish it in all the the Michigan units. Pneumonia Danger Passed. " T h e r e is no immediate cause for great anxiety concerning the health of the m e n in Camp Custer." This comforting comment on t h e situation which is the result of lack of proper clothing and footwear for t h 3 troops, comes from .Lieut.-Col. Bart- Clothing Shortage Serious. Following tho announcement of the quartermaster-general's department of a delinquency in delivery of clothing, shoes and blanket contracts of from 6 to 48 per cent, army authorities of Camp Custer have admitted that the protracted delay in the arrival of proper clothing is causing serious difficulties. The root of the trouble seems to be that Michigan and Wisconsin men are too big for army clothing. The matter, which has dragged on for some weeks, came to a head when a shipment of clothing rushed to th* cantonment by express to equip men of the last contingent who have not been uniformed, was found to consist largely of small sizes. Of 10,676 blouaeg. 7,334 are too small to use; of 19,944 woolen breeches 2,709 are too small to be issued. The great difficulty seems to be in procuring suitable sizes. Enough garments have been received to clothe the present division and all the men it has transferred to other points, but there has been such an overwhelming preponderance of small sizes that Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cored by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Catarrhal Deafness, and that Is by a constitutional remedy. HALL'S CATARRH MEDICINE acts through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces of the System. Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube Is Inflamed you have a rumbling sound or Imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed. Deafness Is the result. Unless the Inflammation can be re* duced and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing may be destroyed forever. Many cases of Deafness are caused by Catarrh, which Is an Inflamed condition of the Mucous Surfaces.

Company commanders are watching the men closely to see that those who return to the barracks with wet shoes cent were below size 8, and few men can wear a size 8 army shoe, If their feet are properly fitted. Another vital need is socks. Tho men must have plenty of them, and they are skimping along on the minimum number, with the supply dwindling daily.

SEARCHERS FAIL TO FIND FUND Another Search Will Be Made When Cargo Is Unloaded—Ship in Command of "Committee." A Pacific Port — Tho Russian freighter Shilka, Captain Boris Dogal, ! which, unheralded, slipped into the harbor here late Friday night direct , from Vladivostok, is under bolsheviki rontrol, it became known Sunday. A number of the Shilka's sailors \ were fraternizing on the docks with a party of alleged Industrial Workers ! of the World, 21 of whom were ar- | rented by federal officials and held for j investigation. Among those taken 1 into custody were 13 Russians. None of the sailors were arrested. Shortly after the vessel's arrival. a report was circulated that she had brought a fund of $100,000 in gold for defense of several scores of Industrial Workers of the World now awaiting trial in Chicago on conspiracy charges. • The United States district attorney here admitted he had heard of the report and federal agents searched the vessel, but found no gold, knowledge of which was denied by the captain and crew. Another search will be made when the cargo of licorice root and beans ia discharged. Following out Bolsheviki principles, the Shilka, it was said, is really under command of a committee of five, four sailors and one officer. This committee has power to over rule any order of Captain Dogal at any time, but members of the crew stated that this unique division of authority had caused no trouble on the voyage across the Pacific. Members of the crew have been forbidden to leave the vessel and 50 cadets from a naval training school, working in three relays under command of commissioned officers, are guarding the ship from the docks.

A $2,500 clerk was the medium of forming an $8,000,000 corporation, which took the risk of the yards being moved, and testimony showed how the packer? in return, to use the language of one of the participants, got their share of "the plunder" and took their "pickings."

You will see that my address is the same but we bave moved further on. I will not call the place by name as it would be censored but I am still "somewhere in Russia." I like it fine where we are now; we have a Y. M. C. A. with a canteen also a lunch counter and we can get a dandy hot cup of cocoa, cookies Jand a rice piece of cake for one and one naif roubles, which is fifteen cents American money and it certainly goes good on cold evening. The way things look we will be home soon if we don't get frozen in over here. We all chipped in and bought some musical instruments—you know i t gets dark so 'soon over here, it makes the evenings so long—so we have lots c f music and singing. We have a jolly bunch of fellows—like brothers to one another. I presume Lee is working as hard as ever; wish I was there t o b e l p n i n v Well, folks, I roust close"*or *bja time.

He had been in poor health for several months, owing to heart trouble, but was confined to his-bed only during the last two weeks, being tenderly cared fox by his family and friands.

His motto seemed to be the "Golden Rule" and numberless friends will sincerely mouin the passing of one who lived up to its precepts.

It Is also good to knojv that people have learned something fibout the value of fresh air. In suiBiner, when people are largely out of "doors, the respiratory dlseuses (coughs, colds, pneumonia, etc.) are infrequent; in the fall, as people begin to remain Indoors, the respiratory diseases Increase; In the winter, when people are prone to stay In badly ventilated, overheated rooms, the respiratory diseases become very prevalent. Suitable Clothing Important. "Still another factor in the production of colds, pneusoonla and other respiratory diseases ill carelessness or ignorance of the people regarding suitable clothing during the seasons when the weather suddenly changes, sitting in .warm rooms too heavily dressed or, what is even more common, especially among women, dressing so lightly that windows are kept closed In order to be comfortably warm. This is a very injurious practice. Could Save 100,000 Lives. "I believe we could easily save one hundred thousand lives annually in the United States If all the people would adopt the system of fresh air living followed, for example, in tuberculosis sanatoria. There is nothing mysterious about it—no specific medicine, no vaccine. The important thing is right living, good food and plenty of fresh air. Droplet Infection Explained in Pictures. "The Bureau of Public Health, tTreasury Department, has just issued a striking poster drawn by lierryman, the well-known Washington cartoonist. (The poster exemplifies the modern method of health education. A few fears ago, umfag similar etyc-umstaaess^ the health authorities ipouUl have Issued an official dry but scientifically accurate bulletin teaching the role of droplet infection in the spread of respiratory diseases. The only ones who would have understood the bulletin would have been those who already knew «11 about the subject. The man In the-street, the plain citizen and the many millions who toil for their living would have had no time and no deslro to wade through the technical phraseology," USE THE HANDKfROW AhiV, YOUFL! BIT Tof PROTK attention of health officers Is directed to pneumonia., bronchitis and other diseases of the respiratory system which regularly cause a large number of deaths, especially during the winter season. According to Rupert Blue, Surgeon General of the United States Public Health Service, these diseases will be especially prevalent this winter unless the people are particularly careful to obey health instructions. "The present epidemic," said Surgeon General Blue, "has taught by bitter experience how readily a condition beginning apparently as a slight cold may go on to pneumonia and death. Although the worst of the epidemic is over, there will continue to be a large number of scattered cases, many of them mild and unrecognized, which will be danger spots to be guarded against" The Surgeon General likened the present situation to that after a great fire, saying, "No fire chief who understands his business stops playing the hose on the charred debris as soon as the flamesand visible fire have disappeared, On the contrary, he continues the water for hours and even j days, for he knows that there is danger of the fire rekindling from smoldering embers." v ^ "Then you fear another outbreak of Influenza?" he was.naked.

D.—Chimes Thought to Be Possessed of Supernatural Power, Six Columns of the Temple of the Sun. IN T H E path of the victorious British expedition In Palestine as It moved northward lay the mountain ranges of the Lebanon, and Aleppo, the taking of which city gave teomplete control of the Syrian end of the Bagdad railway and of the important port of Alexandretta, the best harbor in the country. Prom Damascus the railway to the north traverses the Beka'a, a long, fertile valley between the Lebanon and Anti-Lebanon ranges. In the middle of this valley on the slope of the latter range is Bituated the ancient town of Baalbek relebrated for Its wonderful ruins. Baalbek is a small and prosperous town, a large part of the population being Christian, says Country Life, find it is the seat of the government of a province of the same name and a military center. Ya'kubi, an Arab Writer of the ninth century, speaks of baalbek as one of the finest towns of 8yria, and other writers make allusion to this beautiful spot and its wonderful ruins. It is spoken of by the geographer, Nur Kaddasl, as the coolest place in Syria. As the name Baalbek, which is Semitic in origin, implies, it was connected from early times with the worship of the sun, probably meaning the city of Baal in the Beka'a, by which the plain is known. The Phoenicians here erected a great temple to Baal constructed with colossal stones after their manner. This was afterwards utilized and reconstructed in the Oraeco- Roman period, when the name Baalbek took the Greek form of Hellopolis. the ground level, and measure respectively 64 feet, 63½ feet and 62 feet in length, by 13 feet in thickness and about the same In breadth. The writer notes that they are so beautifully squared and fitted that, although without mortar, it would be difficult to put a knife between them. The quarry from which these gigantic stones were brought Is about half a mile away; and there another one„ still larger, is to be seen. This is 68 feet long and, being squared on all sides, was left in process of being cut from the rock below, when rollers would have been placed under it. But of what were they, and what power was sufficient to move and control this Immense mass of limestone rock? Romans Reused the Stones. The Roman builders would appear to have largely reused the stones of the earlier Phoenician work. The temple of the Sun Itself had 54 columns, 17 each on the north and south sides, and ten each on the east and west sides. On the south side six of these great columns still remain standing. They are 75 feet in height, Including base and capital, while the entablature above adds another 14 feet; the shafts consist of three blocks only, Joined with iron ties, their diameter is 7 feet 3 Inches at the base and 6 feet 6 inches at the top. To the south Is the temple of Jupiter. This is 227 feet by 117 feet, and on a low er level. It also faced east, and had a beautiful portico and stone stair case, nothing of which remains. The peristyle had 42 colmuns, 13 on the ALWAYS, everywhere in our land, we look to the ringing of bells to announce the death of the old year and the birth of the new. Not until we actually hear the bells ringing from the church steeples, somehow, do we really turn to each other and exclaim "Happy New Year!" All of which brings us to the question of why people ring bells. They seem to have figured in the life of man way, way back in the dim and distant years. And they have been used to convey messages of various sorts to those within sound of their alarm. Among the ancient Greeks those who made the nightly rounds of the camps and garrisons used to ring a bell at each sentinel box to make sure that the soldier on duty within was awake. They also put bells upon the necks of criminals to warn all people to avoid them. The Romans used bells to announce the hour of the bath. It is believed that bells were first used In churches about 400 years after the birth of Christ. And by the twelfth century they were In common use in churches all over Europe. Most of these, however, were hand bells, made of thin plates of hammered iron, bent Into a four-sided shape and fastened with rivets and bronzed. Then gradually, as people began to hang the bells In steeples and belfries, they became larger. In 1734 a huge bell was cast in Moscow, Russia. It is over twenty-one feet In height and diameter and weighs 193 tons. The largest bell in America is in the Cathedral of Notre Dame, at Montreal, and weighs 29,400 pounds. In all ages and all countries, the material most used in the manufacture of bells has been a mixture of two parts of copper to one of tin. called bronze. At present about thirteen parts of copper are used to four of tin. Bells have been made of iron, steel, gold, silver, brass and even of glass, though when made of glass they have been found too fragile for practical use. Back in the old days, the people believed that bells possessed supernatural power; by ringing them at certain times, they believed, storms, pestilence and famine could be averted. AMONG NEW YEAR'S RICHES Trials and Suffering a Part of Rich Heritage God Gives to Each of His Children. Part of the r^ch heritage that God has planned for you in the New Year Is suffering. He will permit In the life of each child of his a p o r t i o n - just the right portion—of difficulty and trial and temptation. What we Bee In those trials and temptations will largely determine the riches that Willie ours in this year. A Christian layman recently wrote to a friend; "How fine it would be to go out In the opening year so yielded that every fresh circumstance or trial or temptation would prove to hove the sweet face of Christ concealed in it, or bursting like a flood of glory through some rift In the cloud and filling with radiance our uplifted faces; so that each new obedience should be but the parting of the curtain, .ushering us Into new wonders and experiences of his inexhaustible riches and fullness. Old things would then be continually passing away, all things constantly becoming new." What glories of abounding grace— that the worst Satan can do against THE LOST CHANCES Whenever I a m starting- o u t Upon a freah n e w y e a r \ always atop to. think about The one no longer here, The year t h a t ' s dead I travel back And let my m e m o r y r u n In contemplation t h r o u g h the stack Of things I could have aone. I check the deeds I m e a n t to do With those I did, a n d find T h a t I -neglected quite a few Real chances to be kind. I learn the w >rda I meant to s a y To comfort a n d to cheer, And yet postponed them for a day, I didn't speak t h a t year. And then to m y disgrace I find T h a t had I paused to smile And do those little actions kind I'd not have lost a mile. I learn now t h a t t h e chance h a s gone Th,at I have missed a lot, For all those deeds I could have done As easily a s not. And when a t last life Is through And all my course is run, In deep regret I shall review The deeds I could have done. And I shall wish I had to tell Where nothing m a y be hid The many thlngB I could a s we'll Have done, yet never did. the child of God in this New Year only furnishes a fresh opportunity for God to pour out the treasures of hla unspeakable Gift! The promise to supply every need of ours ilaccording to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus" is not a promise for the life to come, when all sorrow and sickness and temptation to evil will be at an end, but it Is a promise made In full view of every trial and temptation that we shall meet today. Let us then count It all joy when we fall into our difficulties and trials, confidently remembering that along with each of them we have—Jesus. Making a New Year. The virtue of a New Year Is not In its change, of name. The first days of January a r e so exactly like the last days of December that we have to make a conscious and continued effort to write the proper date on our letters. If this is to be a New Year indeed, we must make it so ourselves, putting into it new hopes arrd ambitions, new resolutions and effect. The virtue of the New Tear Is in the new aspiration and persistence we bring to i t One Mora! Standard. There is one moral standard for all Christians—there has never been more than one. The Commandments and the Sermon on the-Mount have been always there. It was the wickedness of men that ignored them in the fifteenth century—It is the wickedness of men that ignores them now. Tolerate them in the past, a n d you will come to tolerate them. In present and future.

Our people were greatly shocked to ITALY'S EFFORT IN WORLD WAR Military, Financial and Industrial Contributions Equal to Allies. ENLISTED 5,500,000 SOLDIERS ,. By DR. F E L I C E F E R R E R O , Director Italian Bureau of Publlo Information. The blood aud treasure of Italy were freely spent In the successful effort to put Austria-Hungary out of the war. While Italy's efforts were not confined to the Austrian front, her contribution to allied success was greater here than in the other places where her troops fought the battle for civilization. H e r financial and industrial efforts have been equal to her military effort, and in all these directions Italy has not lagged behind her allies. Italy's soldiers have gone far afield. They contributed largely to the glorious victory on the Balkan front. A large contingent in F r a n c e first gave powerful aid in the defense of Rheims, then took part In the advance of the J allied forces. Italy Had 5,500,000 Under Arms. Since the beginning of the war Italy has called to the colors little less than 5,500,000 men and has suffered a loss of almost 1,500,000 of them. Of that loss nearly 350,000 died in battle, and 100,- 000 from disease. Over 550,000 are totally incapacitated, either by blindness, loss of limb or tuberculosis. At the present moment the strength of the Italian nrmy is 4,025,000, Including the class of men born in 1900, who have been called to the colors recently. It may be said, then, that the nation's man-power has suffered a permanent loss of nearly a million. But Italy lias Indicted an even greater punishment upon the foe. In Austrian prisoners alone she has taken approximately a million. The Austrian loss in killed and wounded is, of eourse, unknown to us, but even the most conservative estimates make it far greater lhan ours.

The dollar for a stock and the eighty for an*ad brought him three lovely dollars in day, by dad. Well, he bought more goods and a little more space and he played t h a t system with a smile on hia face. The customers flocked to his two by four and soon he had to hustle for a regular store. U p o n the corner where the people pass j forces has had an acute reaction on he gobled up a corner t h a t was all plate ^ economic life of the nation. It Is estimated that OD an average only 100 adults remained in each town or village to provide in each case for some 320 children below t h e age of fifteen. Furthermore, the traditions of Italian family life render the work of their women an economic factor of less importance than in some other countries, though it has been utilized to the utmost and is becoming more available a s old traditions give way to w a r ' s necessity. Italy got no help from colonial contingents. On the contrary, tbe scarcity of native troops in Italy's coloniea compelled the government to reinforce them with troops from t h e , mother country. ed to" the demands of war witlt an open-handedness that has surprised even herself. From the first of August, 1914, to the end of 1917 the total expenditures of the state were !>S,S05,- 000,000. Calculating on the basis of a monthly average expenditure for the war of $240,000,000, the total cost of the war to Italy would be more than $12,000,000,000. The first national loan yielded about $200,000,000, and it seemed a great struggle, but the one in October, 1917, yielded about $1,300,000,000. rgyi glass.

S& HUGE SUM SPENT ON FORTIFICATIONS C I Q H T BILLION DOLLAR APPROPRIATION A8KED OF CONGRE8S NEXT JULY. IfOE PU»S REPUBLIC W U l j u i ^ g ^ ^ 6,316,704 DEAD TO KEEP URGE FIGHTING FORCE Diplomatic Expense* for Next Year Put At $11,042,236.66 More Than Trebled in Last Decade. Washington.—First details of the eight billion dollar appropriation asked of congress for the fiscal year beginning next July were given in a statement prepared by the treasury department and lair before the sen ate by Chairman Simmons, of the finance committee. It brings out two very interesting points. More than half the amount to be spent is to be devoted to war purposes. Of the eight billion dollars four and a half billions are to go directly to the army and navy. The nation must maintain a great fighting force for some time in spite of the actual cessation of hostilities. The army to be kept in Europe must be equipped and fed, and the cost of supporting a million men 3,000 miles away from their base of supplies will require a huge sum of money. Big Sum for Fortifications. With this expenditures is the estimate for fortifications and the military academy. The former item calls for $574,237,273.30. Ten years ago, In the fiscal year of 1908-09, the country spent less than $10,000,000 on its fortifications, and it was an unusually large appropriation. When the Democrats secured control of the public purse the amount was cut in two, and in the year when the country was assured that the agitation for preparedness against war - was pleasant mental exercise for persons who were unnecessarily excited and alarmed and that the national defense had not been neglected by the gov. ernment the appropriation was barely $5,000,000. Diplomatic Expenses Trebled. The expenditures for the department of agriculture ten years ago were $11,672,106. For the coming year the estimates are $30,048,786. The amount for this purpose has en two and a half times. The estimate for the consular and lomatic service for next year is $11,042,236.66. Ten years ago the amount spent on this service was $3,- 638,852.72. It has trebled during the decade. The increase for the District of Columbia is 150 per cent; for the Indian service, 130 per cent; for the legislative, executive and judicial expenses of the government, 360 per cent; for pensions, 135 per cent. The sundry civil appropriation, which covers a multitude of items not elsewhere specified in appropriation bills and is a sort of grabbag where provision is made for matters close to the hearts of congressmen in these days when pork bills are under the ban, has jumped from about $94,000,000 to $902,000,000 plus in the present bill. Senate Will Be Formed to Take the Place of Former Diet. Copenhagen.—A committee o! German experts Investigating the German political situation wit> the view to determining the most advisable form of government,/lias decided to recommend formation of a German republic to be headed by a president who shall have powers "midway between those of the American president and the British king." The president should have the right to form his own cabinet, the committee advocates. It is further recommended to form a body of representatives of the 14 or 15 German Btates to be analagous to the American senate. This body is to take the place of the former diet. The report foreshadows a complete union between Bavaria and German Austria, and says there should be no objection to formation of permanent republics by Rhenish Prussia, Westphalia, and Silesia.

C—Walter Hinea Page, who resigned last August as embassador to Great Britain because of ill health, died here. Mr. Page was born in Cary, N. C, snd educated in Randolph-Macon college in the suburbs of Richmond and in Johns Hopkins university. After leaving college his natural interest in the south led him to abandon his first journalistic post on a Missouri paper to travel through the southern states. A great many years ago, Page's interest broadened to take in other parts.of the country. Mr. Page became editor of the Forum and .later editor of the Atlantic Monthly in Boston. After live years in Boston with the Atlantic, Mr. Page, with P. N. Doubleday, established the publishing house of Doableday, Page & Co., in New Tot*. H& three sons graduated from Harvard, and his daughter, Miss atatfcorlse Page, from Bryn Mawr Washington,—The minimum fee to be paid the American International corporation for constructing 180 ships, costing $256,000,000, will amount to about $8,910,000, Charles Plez, general manager of the shipping board's emergency fleet corporation, testified before the senate committee investigating Hog Island construction. In view of increased expense, he Bald, the fees will amount to only slightly more than 2 per cent on the cost of production. The witness fixed the—approximate cost of these ships at about $225 per ton, and said England now pays about $140 per ton, while the Emergency Fleet corporation had been paying about $190 a ton. Replying to a statement made by Senator Harding that the contracts for ships had been awarded to meet the war emergency, Mr. Piez recommended going ahead to meet world tonnage shortage, estimate at 20,- 000,000 dead weight tons. The cost of the great shipbuilding plant at Hog Island was estimated at $63,300,000 by Mr. Pies. He said the yard which has delivered one ship and had 50 keels laid should be completed In 60 days. U. 8. Operation Discussed. "Would you have the government take over the yards or continue their operation as now?" Senator Johnson, of California, had asked, "Thafs being considered now," replied Mr. Pies. "There are some grave disadvantages in taking them over." Britain Army Official Losses In Killed Total 658,704— Italy's Loss Put At 500,000. Copenhagen—Russia's war casualties total 9,150,000 men, according to a telegram received from Petrograd. Of this number 1,700,000 were killed. This brings the total of all nations killed in action to 6,316.704. Estimates of Russian casualties In the war, made last week by the Russian information bureau director, A. J. Sack, in New York, figured the total at "not less than 8,000,000 ^nen, of whom 3,000,000 were killed and about 1,000,000 disabled for life."

It will be more profitable to complete the study of Joseph in his attitude toward his kindred than to undertake the review. I. Joseph Sends to Canaan for His Father (45:17-28). After Joseph had made himself known to his brethren he sent them back to his father In Canaan with the good news not only that he was alive, but that the Lord had exalted him to be lord over all Egypt, and that his father and brethren with their families should come down to Egypt where he would give them the best of the land and that they should eat of the "fat of the land." This Illustrates how one day Jesus Christ shall disclose his identity to his brethren the Jews, and that his exaltation at the right hand of the Father was to make preparation for them against the awful day of trial which shall be visited upon them (Acts 3:19-21). II. Joseph Meets His Father in the Land of Goshen (46:29-34). Jacob experienced a double delight —that of seeing his beloved son whom he had long mourned as dead, and of being welcomed to the new and strange land by Its prime minister. Joseph Instructed his father and brethren how to place their request before Pharaoh. Since their occupation was that of shepherds he knew that some tact should be employed In their approach to the king, for "every shepherd is an abomination unto the Egyptians." Ml. Jacob and Five Sona Presented to Pharaoh (47:1-7). Though Joseph was high in authority he was not ashamed to bring his father and brethren Into the presence of the great Pharaoh, even though they were humble farmers. 1. Pharaoh's Question ( w . 3, 4). He inquired as to their occupation. They answered that both they and their father were shepherds. They went a little beyond what they were asked by Pharaoh and instructed to do by Joseph. They requested the land of Goshen, for they knew it was a good place for pasture for their flocks. 2. Pharaoh's Instructions to Joseph (vv. 5, 6). He told him to make his father and brethren to dwell In the best of the land—even Goshen, and that If he knew of any men of ability among them to give them the charge of his cattle. He assumed that since Joseph was so capable and trustworthy that some of his brethren would also possess suitable qualifications of ad* ministration. IV. Jacob Blessed Pharaoh (47:7* 10). Though Jacob was a pilgrim in Egypt, dependent upon Pbaraoh even for food to eat, in the dignity of his faith of what God would do with him, aud through him, he pronounced a blessing upon the great Egyptian king. The less is blessed by the greater (Hebrews 7:7). Though conscious of his place of superiority through the divine covenant he did not manifest ofneiousneas, but rather the desire to convey a vital blessing. H e recognized that he was the channel through which great blessings would come to Pharaoh, in accordance with the Abrahamic covenant (Genesis 12:1-3). Israel is one day to be the channel through which the blessings of salvation shall flow to the Gentile nations (Romans 11:12- 15). V. Joseph Nourished Hla Father and Brethren (47:11,12). According to the Instructions of Pharaoh, Joseph placed his father and brethren in the beat of the land and made provision for them. Jeans Christ win one day, when the famine of the great tribulation Is-exceeding sore, be reconciled to bis brethren, the Jews, and will give them a possession in the beat of the land and nottrlsh them, Christ ta BOW seated with* the Father oa hla throne, and one day will reveal himself to hla brethren ta* Jewe and WIS toad thatb on the "fat of tho land?* Jacob Hred ra Bgypt Mr yeara, Whan w***^eas • • ' • • • n a v ^ r * e^^ew as^a^ava^aj ^ay£gejgs>ej^Bs,vava^sjBV -'CjBJBS • exacted front Joaepa a prcauaa that he wtwM ba*f hta la Canaan, ^ a Meaaed ?oase*'e eoaa M v i a j * « > « : -.^- -" ; • « . . • * * ' •»•»»•*«•**»••;*. . . - M ' . , . . . x * • » , . . ;¥i • > • • •<**\ ^ ¾ J!<t..- GERMANY TO RISE IF WEST BANK OF RHINE IS TOUCHED FOE LEADER 8AY8 T H E R E M U 8 T NOT BE NO NEW ECONOMIC BAR.

Washington—Steady progress in theiestablishment of a popular government in Finland on a comparativelystable basis free from German control has resulted in a decision by the* United States and Allies to furnish that country immediately with food! stuffs for civilian relief. In making this announcement the? war trade board said: "The moment Russia succeeds in achieving the same* degree of social and political equilibrium with Finland she will be throwing open for her own benefit a door by which- food and many other necessities of ltfe may enter freely from the* outside world." Shipment of 28,000,000 pounds o* foodstuffs to Finland, it was announced, was authorized by the war trade board oS recommendation of Herbert Hoover, who is in Europe a s - sisting to work out a program of r e - lief for distressed people of that country, and with the approval of the Allied governments. Shipments will include 70,000,000» pound8 of cereals, 4,000,000 pounds of pork products, 2,000,000 pounds of Industrial fats and 2,000,090 pounds o f sugar. Bolshevist Army Exaggerated. London—There have been numeroua alarmist reports recently relative tc* the size of the boishevist army, but figures quoted so far a r e considered exaggerations, The actual fighting strength is probably not much over 200,000 or 300,000.

G. Chapman.) CHAPTER >fVII—Continued. —12— "Be silent, sir! Gentlemen," he conidnued, addressing Mark and the Colo mel, "yon are interested In knowing "What happened to this man Hampton. "He could not rid himself of the belief •that Justice, though slow, is pretty sure. He had faith In God. Unfortunately he had less faith In himself. Am I wronging you, Hampton?" he continued, addressing Hartley. "No, sir," muttered the man on the stretcher^ feebly. "He wishes me to tell the whole story. He went to Cuba and flung Tn "his lot with the rebels. He became •disgusted with their means and meth- -ods, obtained a pardon from General yWeyler, and took up his residence in Santiago. The outbreak of the war eurprlsed him there. He knew that Santiago would fall, and he had been warned that he would receive short thrift at the hands of our people. "He longed for death, but he had two things that kept alive the desire for life. One was his child, the other the -desire for vindication, which had become a monomania. He tried to escape Into the jungle. He saw thut it was hopeless. ••He was hiding in a little hut when he heard, footsteps. An American soldier, who had strayed from his company, was coming into the clearing. At that moment a stray bullet caught him in the head, killing him instantly. Hampton saw his chance. He took off the dead man's clothing nnd put it on; he dressed the body in his own. He knew that by this means he could pass through the lines In the guise of a wounded man, until he had a chance to get rid of his uniform in the cabin of «ome Cuban, who would be only too •well pleased to give him some rags in -exchange for it. And, leaving his money and papers on the dead man, he knew that he left his Identity behind, for the bullet had destroyed the features. 'There was the child—but Hampton knew that he could take her no further. With the Americans she would receive food—which he had not—and shelter and protection. Afterward he would regain her. He lurked in the tmshes until he saw Captain Wallace Appear, watched him, trusted him, and went away, "He learned of the child's adoption, -and for years he haunted her home, lier school, all places that were her residence, ever craving her, ever restrained by the realization that, till his name was cleared, he had no right to her. His Idea of vindication had become, as I said, a monomania. "Now, gentlemen, I have little time to spare, but I must carry this story to the end. I said that he had less faith In himself than he had in God. Once, for three years, Hampton lost his child. She had gone to San Francisco. In his despair he went to Washington, he sought out Hilda Morsheim, who was still plying her trade, and Pegged, as he had never begged anyone, that she would vindicate his name." There was a stillness as of utter death inside the little cave. "She saw in him one of those useful spies such as her organization used, broken men with inside knowledge of conditions. She useo* him, held out promises, broke them; in his despair lie made himself a slave to her and— and her confederate, forgetting his manhood and what he had been. Time and again they broke faith with him. B e had just realized that he had nothing to hope for from them when Captats Wallace appeared on the scene." *Yes, he was a .rotten dog, sir," said Kelierman, with the ghost of a smile. * » i s on such evidence that you 'pre* aume— V "No, sir, It Is n o t r thundered the General. "It is on the evidence of the woman Hilda "Morsheim, alias Kenson, secured by Hampton under circumstances wbtch-*-" Kelierman ottered a low cry; he was trembling now* and «11 his bravado •earned to have cosed away. "This woman, strangely enough, loved her confederate," went on the «epefai remorselessly, fixing his eyes -full oft:Kelierman* now, while Kelierin* n.bUnked Use a bat In daylight and turned his head weakly from side to -iafd*Y as if under the Intolerable glare >-••«* a^ssejrthttgbt. "Her claims on btrn strong enough, God knows t She another, with a girl as much above him as—" With a cry that seemed hardly huv man Colonel Howard sprang toward Kelierman, his fingers twitching as if he sought to fasten them about his throat. Mark caught him and held him, while the old man swayed to and fro, his outstretched arm extended toward Kelierman as if In tmprecatlon, Eleanor, at Hartley's side, did not even look toward them. "This woman, Morsheim—Reason— whatever you call her, came to France, upon receipt of a message which had cut her to the heart, shown her the hopelessness of her dreams, and taught her that the one man In whom she had believed was worthless clay. To do her jnstlce, let us suppose that, even in her worst acts, she had been sustained by a sense of duty to her country. "She met her confederate in an inn at a village not far distant. Frantic at her appearance, he Induced her to let him drive her back through the lines, and on the way renewed his lying promises. This time she doubted him. "Two men had overheard their conversation. One was Captain Wallace, whom the pair had broken as they broke poor Hampton. Him the traitor had seen, and he devised a scheme to send him to the trenches and contrive to have him sent on a false and fatal errand. With that point I shall not now deal. The other man was Hampton, who had enlisted under an alias, in the belief that he would obtain a clue that would unmask the traitor. He contrived to go back through the lines, found the woman, and somehow—perhaps by God's wonderful mercy—obtained her signed confession—which I have here. In full!" He wheeled upon Kelierman. "Major Kelierman," he said in a deep voice that vibrated almost with pity, BO charged with significance that its meaning could not escape either Howard or Mark, "you are under arrest. You will go toward your quarters, first removing your belt and arms." Kelierman saluted weakly and stumbled out of the cave. The General looked at Mark, "The soldier Weston receives a free and full pardon for his valor In the field this day," he said. "He Is also discharged honorably from the service of the United States government." Mark looked at the general In astonishment; this was the last thing that he desired. The General approached and clapped him on the shoulder. "Captain Wallace," he said, "your written resignation from the United States army cant'''& 3 *--;*&&* aim t* marry her, to take her " j p *tmj the <rid scenes that the* ^•isaamt'katre a ehnnee to redeem their ttrej together .

And behind them Mark had the dim consciousness in the background of his mind of Kelierman, broken as be bad broken so many, and fumbling, always fumbling, now with his tunic, now with the belt that he was trying to detach with shaking fingers. "Hartley 1" whispered Mark, holding the dying man's hand in his. "That was you today—I missed you, but I believed in youT You saved me." There was a fluttering pressure of Mark's hand in turn. Hampton was speaking; he was asking for the Colo- Santiago." nel. "I am here, Hampton," said Colonel Howard in a choked voice, as he leaned over him. "You believe, in me now, sir?" muttered the dying man, rolling his head uneasily In the effort to see. "May God forgive me, Hampton! May she—your wife—forgive me. Tell her that, and tell her her words came true. I betrayed my best friend, and I've suffered for it, and I shall suffer to the last day of my life." "She forgives you, Howard," said Hampton, speaking now with such solemnity that his words seemed to his listeners to be inspired. "There's—only —one thing—I want, Howard, old man." "Yes, my dear boy—yes, Hampton." "Put my name—back on the mess list," whispered Hampton. Through his tears Mark was conscious that the Interminable fumbling outside the cave had ceased. As Hampton fell back there came the sudden crack of a revolver shot. The General's form blocked the entrance as they raised their heads. Mark placed his hands across Eleanor's eyes and drew her away. know why I have told you what I've often plnehed myself to keep from telling you?

Perhaps it wus because they had seen so many horrors during the past four-and-twenty hours that these seemed all to have fallen away that night at staff headquarters. There was a brief hour of rest after Interminable labors, the lines had been held and the great assault repelled In confusion ; for that hour every man seemed bent upon forgetting the Incidents of war, and something like gaiety ruled In the messroom. All the past seemed very far away to Captain Mark Wallace as he stood with Eleanor in the little cottage garden. "When the auto comes to take you back to the hospital I shall feel that my new life has lost the best part of Its promise," said Mark. It was a long and extraordinarily imaginative speech for him, and he stood shamefaced after he had said It, like a boy who has delivered a grown man's aphorism. "Captain Mark," said Eleanor, "you knew who I was, and you could not— you could not have believed ray father innocent, and yet you had faith In me. You must have suffered when I used to talk about my dreams of him, and you hid your suffering and your knowledge because of me." "That was nothing, Eleanor." "Captain Mark," she whispered, bending toward him. "I—I kissed you today." "That wag nothing, Eleanor." "Captain Mark! What do you mean? How dare you P Mark looked utterly disconcerted. "I mean—I mean, Eleanor, I'm Just your old guardian—a sort pf old friend, you know, and you were glad I had come back safe." "Cv Captain Mark!" said Eleanor, shaking with helpless laughter which disconcerted him still more; nnd yet he thought her lashes were wet with tears. "Captain Mark, are you really going to make me say it?" "Say what, my dear?" "That it ought to have been .you." "But you mustn't let that worry you, Eleanor. It's often done in such cases —I Just thought you were too old to kiss; You know, I wanted to—" "O thank you, thank you," said Eleanor wearily. "Captain Mark, you dear, absurd guardian of mine, I see you aren't going to spare me. So listen. I love you, and have loved you only, and nobody but you, all through my-ttfe, from the time I got your first letters to the time you came to see me at the Misses Harpers* school, and from then to now."

So it's really you who have told me all this, and I've Just been interpreting your thoughts, because all I did just now was to tell you what you wanted to tell me without knowing that you wanted to tell me what you did want oil the time. Isn't that so, Captain Mark?" "Yes," answered Mark, feeling completely at sea, but incapable of contradicting anything that Eleanor chose to say. "Isn't that so, Mark, dear?" "Of course it is," said Mark. "So you have actually told me that you care for me, and you want me to give you" my answer. Is that what you want me to understand, Captain Mark?" "Yes, my dear, of course it Is," answered Mark. Eleanor looked down thoughtfully. "Well, I'm not sure," she \aid, In, a meditative manner. "You know, you have been terribly, abominably; rude to me so often." Mark had a great horror of losing her. "And you've broken your solemn promise, and you can't Imagine what a shock that gave me, because I Idealized you In a childish way, and I never dreamed that you were capable of not keeping your word, Captain Mark." "I, Eleanor?" asked Mark in bewilderment. "Eleanor, surely I never promised anything that I didn't do." "Do you remember that evening in Washington, the evening when you came to see us, and we didn't get on well together at all, at first?" "And suddenly you became the little girl that I had adopted, Eleanor." "And suddenly you became my dear Uncle Mark again t Well, do you remember promising me that you would never give me up any more, no matter who might seem to have a better claim on me?

It is evident that the Government of the Dominion In its programme of reconstruction and development is undertaking a work of tremendous im* portance. There will be available the labor for work that has been silent since 1914, and the rehabilitation of this labor will entuil the thought and energy of most capable heads. The transition period from war to peace will be rapid and thorough, and, In* stead of Canada sinking into a state of lethargy, there will be a continued period of wakefulness that will give employment to the unemployed, and render to the capitalist and producer ample return for his money, effort and enterprise. The agricultural potentialities of the«great Canadian West possess illimitable acres of the best of soil, capable of producing millions of bushels of the best of grain. The cost of growing this is lower than any place on the continent. There will be a greatef demand than ever for these lands, the consequent production will be heavier and the profits attractive. Cattle industry will be one of the chief developments, and the encouragement of it will lie in the continued high prices that beef products will bring. European countries have been depleted of cattle, and the demand for beef, cattle and dairy products will tax the efforts of the producer for years to come. Western Canada offers unequaled opportunities for development in this Hue. In the Canadian West plans are being laid for the development of electrical power which can be produced cheaply. There is an abundance of coal and water power that could be used in developing this useful energy. What cheap power produced in this way will mean to the farmer and development of Industrial enterprises cannot be estimated in figures. More extensive development of the water power at Niagara, on the St. Lawrence and at waterfalls all over the country, Is ready to be launched. Peace will see new mine fields opened up, and it is equally certain that shipbuilding, railway equipment, steel production, and many of the Industries will go forward with a bound. Canadian industries will be required In the reconstruction of Europe, and already the Canadian Government has sent across the seas a commission for the purpose of securing orders. Canada took an early and prominent part in the war, and In the days of peace will be found equally active. She feels that by the valor and loyalty of her people she has earned a large share of the business and prosperity that will follow the war period, and she proposes to get It.—Advertisement. Just Imagine! Senator Garcia informed the Argentine senate recently that the foreigners resident In Buenos Aires are 56 per cent of the population, and added, courteously, that "If it were 70 per cent It would be all the better for the country." Although acknowledging the compliment, a British paper published there says: "If we were Argentines we would disagree decidedly, not merely with the senator, but with the circumstance. Imagine London with an alien population of more than half the total! Imagine the country at war, with such a collection of dubious consistency In Its business and executive base! It would not be possible to intern them. It would, on the other hand, be quite possible for them to intern the men of the soil."—-New York Post insr Every Day in Year Day in History.

SHIP C0W$ WITHOUT HORNS RECORD BY TILLY ALCARTRA Famous Holstein Recently Came Through With New High Mark of 40.56 Pounds of Butter. **Yoj can't keep a good man down," and tnis aphorism Is as true of cows as It is of men. In proof of which is the news that the famous purebred Holstein, Tilly Alcartra, Is again at her old tricks of rolling up records. She recently dropped her sixth calf, a heifer, and gave such promise of another successful lactation period ahead of her that her owners decided to put her on test. She came through with a new mark for seven days with 40.56 pound* of butter out of 729.1 pounds of milk, which shows the pace she is making in the yearly test she is on. With this record she is the twentyfifth "40-pound" Holstein cow. Tilly Alcartra has to her credit the production of 30,451.4 pounds of milk yielding 1,180.0:5 pounds of butter in Tilly Alcartra. 305 days. In two years she produced GO,278 pounds of milk ; in three years she produced 80,078 pounds of milk; in four years, 103,009.3 pounds of milk, and in five years she has produced 123,- 351 pounds of milk and 4,850.5 pounds of butter. She is the champion longdistance cow. At the time of her freshening she was nine years, three months and two days of- age. 2 GIVE COWS BALANCED RATION Protein, Carbohydrates and Fats Are Used by Animals in Quite Different Proportions. In feeding dairy cows the best results are always secured and the most economic use of feeds is obtained by providing a balanced ration. Careful studies have shown that the three classes of nutrients in feeds, proteins, carbohydrates, and fats, are used by different animals in quite different proportions. A ration that supplies these nutrients in the proportion that the animal requires, is called a balanced ration. When enough of each of these classes is fed there is no wfiste, caused by feeding an unnecessary amount of one class of nutrients, Protein is used by the animal chiefly to form the muscles or lean flesh of the bod-?, the hair, the horns, the hoofs and the casein in the milk. The carbohydrates and the fat are a source of energy in the body, as well as that of the body fat and the fat in the milk. The compounding of & balanced ration is not difficult if one has at hand tables which show the digestible nutrients of the various feeds. Many farmers, however, obtain good results by more simple methods, and have found the following rules useful: 1. Feed all the roughage that the cow will eat up clean. 2. If the roughage contains eight to teu pounds of leguminous hay, such as clover, cowpen or alfalfa, mix the grain ratios so that it will contain from 14 to 16 per cent of protein. If the roughage does not contain a large proportion of leguminous hay, but is composed largely of corn silage, cornstalks, and timothy hay, mix the grain ration to contain 20 to 24 per cent of protein. 3. To cows such as Jerseys or Guernseys, giving milk testing 4 per cent in butterfat or higher, feed the grain mixture at the rate of one pound to every three pounds of milk produced. To cows giving milk which tests 3½ per cent in butterfnt or less, feed one pound of the grain mixture to every three and one-half to four pounds of milk produced. 4. If the cow is in poor flesh and is giving a good flow of milk, she will us* ually respond to heavier feeding and the grain ration should be Increased.

In case horned animals are shipped they should be tied securely or penned off in one end of the car to preclude the possibility of injuring other animals during the trip.

FREEDOM FROM LAXATIVES Disco very by Scientists Has Replaced Thorn, Plils and salts give temporary relief from constipation only at the expense of permanent injury, aays an eminent medical authority. Science has found a newer, better way—a means as simple as Nature itself. In perfect health a natural lubricant keeps the food waste soft and moving. Bat when constipation exists this natural lubricant is not sufficient. Medical authorities have found that the gentle lubricating action of Nujol most closely resembles that of Nature's own lubricant. As Nujol Is not a laxative it cannot gripe. It Is In no sense a medicine. And like pure water It Is harmless and pleasant. Nujol is prescribed by physicians; used In leading hospitals. Get a bottle from your druggist today.—Advertisement.

Word has it In Washington that the administration will contend valiant ly against some of the proposals of the opposing factions among the lawmakers, while being willing to compromise, if that is the right word, on certain other proposals. In fad, as has been said before this, the friends of the administration declare it bud formulated some legislation of the kind which the "blocs" desire, and had done it before the blocs had made their wishes known in the case. Of course the legislation whicn the President has in mind does not meet in full the demands of those who would carry the same legislation to a greater extreme, but the whole thing goes to show that the administration will tight hard against certain proposi* — ^-fuohs,- whHe- telfig''^willing to meet others something more than half way. It was the agricultural committee of the'senate which reported a resolution providing for the election of the President by direct vote of the people and for the abolition of the electoral college. The resolution also pro- \ides for the inauguration of the President on the first Monday in January, instead of March 4, and the convening of a newly elected congress in the same month. These things the administration will fight. Changes Would Require Time. Of course these changes will require amendments to the Constitution of the United States, and it will be a long time before they can be put into effect, even If the requisite majority of the states of the Union today are willing to give their approval. The President's view, as It Is set forth by one who knows it, seems to be "'that one of the greatest of inspirations that came to the founding fathers—the makers of the Constitution— led to the provision that congress be elected one year and assembled u year later, when passions that ha.e been aroused might have time to cool and the people given opportunity to deliberate." The, proponents of the plan to have a new congress meet immediately after it is elected hold that, the people having expressed 'their will, there should be no delay in giving the representatives of that will^the opportunity to direct legislation. There will be a hard fight over the adoption of a resolution to prepare the way^for three constitutional amendments. The resolution was drafted by Representative Norris of Nebraska. It went to the calendar of the senate and It will be called up and debated at the first opportunity. There will Furthermore, a Few Senators Can Force Congress Into an Extra Session, Under Present System, Because legislation Hasn't • y IOWARO t%» tsssyiwity In the senate is determined that rules shall be adopted to stop filibustering and to give the dominant party, whichever It happens to be, a chance to put through the legislation that it desires. It Is now suggested, and It seems that the suggestion may bear fruit, that shortly after March 4 the senate, if it shall continue In special session, shall be asked to modify the rule which allows unlimited debate. Without any Intention of irony It might be said ssVut these endeavors of the senate to find means to gag Itself make an old man of one. Years on years the same thing has been suggested, and nothing, or virtu ally nothing, ever has come of it. It is true that by Invoking a so-called cloture rule the senate can stop debate on a given subject, but before this rule can be put into force It must receive the sanction of so large a number of the senators that It virtually Is barred from getting such sanction. In the senate today the dominant party has a majority of 24 votes. It wanted to put through what Is known as the Dyer anti-lynchlng bill. It has been compelled to forego the endeavor. A filibuster was started against the bill and Its opponents forced Its proponents to call the legislation off. Can Force Extra Sessions. Opinions will vary as to the virtue of the filibuster against the anti-lynchlng bill. It makes no difference, however, whether one approves or disapproves of the legislation, the point is that senators who effoose to talk and keep e>n talking can prevent the passage of any legislation, even if it has back of It all the weight of public opinion. To put it in another way, an appropriation bill which every senator ] be an alignment of forces and someagrees should be enacted into law can | thing of the nature of a "battle royal," he defeated by filibustering tactics em- as the bromide has It. ployed, not really for the purpose of Immigration Up Again. killing the particular bill, but to force | Immigration ugain bus thrust Itself congress into an extra session because Into the ring of deoate.

There are GOOD CALF STANCHION EASILY MADE * Calf Stanchion Designed by ths Dairy Division of the Department of Agriculture. :¾ Farmers and dairymen are well acquainted with the disposition of young calves to upset pails of feed, and when several young members of the bovine family eat together their respective appetites are not easily regulated where the self-help or cafeteria plan of feeding prevails. Manufacturers of mechanical devices have capitalized this condition and there are on the market steel stanchions for inclosing calves at mealtimes. These appliances, however, entail an expenditure of money which the lairymau may object to In the event *hat makeshift arrangements are to be found. May Be Built Cheaply. K. E. Parks, dairy engineer of the daj.ry division. United States Department of Agriculture, has designed a calf stanchion that may be built by the farmer or dairyman at a cost of approximately $?. This home-made unit is in use at the >xperimentd dairy farm at Beltsville. Md. The stanchion can be built singly or arranged in series so as to accommodate as many young animals aa re maintained on the particular farm employing this convenient device. Common pjne lumber is used as the construction material, the unit at the government farm requiring abom twenty board feet of lumber. A space of two feet Is allowed for eacH stanchion where the arrangement is fem series. When young calves are tbxm temporarily imprisoned, the feed pefl is immune from the kicking tendencies of the future dairy cow anr* a group of these members of the bovine family may take luncheon together without there being an evidence of jrreedln* of any calf to the displeasure of other. Calves from the time they given access to the feed pall until three months of sge may be caged In these stanchions wben partaking of their meals. After the elapse of 90 days of their life, they can be placed in pens. Blueprints of these stanchions may be had by addressing requests to the dairy division. United States Department of Agriculture, Washington. Already, In testimony to the remarkable cheapness and value of these homemade stanchions, there are hundred* of them in service, faithfully duplicating the structural outline of the dairy engineer of this federal department. CUT-OVER WOODLOT FAVORED chief looming things are ship subsidy tiT)(] the extension of legislation governing agricultural credits. The ship subsidy bill # may be blocked by a filibuster. This possibility or probability has been recorded from time to time ever since the subsidy measure was sent over to the senate with the sanction of the house stamped on it, but there Is nothing those who desire to let down the bars so that certain kinds of industry can" be supplied with day laborers, and there are others who would let down the bars because they want more people of their racial stock to enter the United States.

The owner of a farm woodlot who Is looking to the future as well as to the present will prefer what is known as "an improvement cutting" to a le*,s systematic harvesting o' his timber crop, forestry specialists declare. They say that it will pay the farmer to eave standing a Considerable percentage of those kinds of trees which he wants to encourage In Ills woodlot. These trees will seed the soil and fill up the gaps left by the cutting. All logging operations should he made with the preservation and extension of the stand of young growth In mind. It is considered a good practice at the first cutting to remove trees like the chestnut, aspen, Ironwood and beech, since they are considered less desirable and satisfactory in New York woodlots. Stag-headed, batt-injured and heavy follaged, llmby trees of every variety may likewise be disposed of ut the first cutting. White pine, .vhite ash, bnsswood. red oak. hard maple, tulip, poplar, and in some cases even hemlock should be encouraged. A special warning is given against making the first cuttk g too heavy. It Is said to be better to make this first cutting most carefully and if desirable to go over the woodlot again in five or ten years. If the first cutting is too heavy, it may result in a tangle of brambles which will retard all development. DOES NOT CAUSE SOUR SOILS No Ground for Common Belief That Use of Acid Phosphate Will Prove Injurious. Contrary to popular belief, the use of acid phosphate will not produce acidity in the soils, according to statement made by the workers le field of agronomy at the New state college of agriculture at Ithaca. The college long has advocated a greater use of acid phosphate with or without manure for fertilizing soils. Some farmers, however, have feared that to do this would mean that greatly increased quantities of limestone oc lime would then be required for the growth of clover and alfalfa. These fears, however, are groundless, it Is stated. Indeed, experiments made at Rhode Island show that acid phosphate actually served to reduce soil acidity. Dr. Burgess, who made the test, declares positively that "there is no foundation for the statement that soils will become more acid from the continuous use of acid phosphate." The soil specialists state, however, that sour soil should be limed in advance of the application of acid phosphate. "Do not fear soil acidity from the use of acid phosphate." conclude the workers at Cornell, who add that with legumes and manure about 200 pounds of acid phosphate a year, onan average, when used for,grain and hay crops, give excellent results. therefore any tactics intended to prevent its coming to a vote are justifiable. The proponents <>f the measure say the country dees want legislation, and that filibustering tactics against Its passage are unjustifiable If nol wicked. The salient thing fs, once more, the power which a minority of senators vantage under bright lights. Some prnminent cafes and restaurants In Berlin have their ceilings literally covered with sockets for electric light bulbs. The sockets are. for the most part, empty now, and only a few bulbs are burning in the gigantic crystal chandeliers In the evening. The street lights are turned off after have to prevent a majority from the theater-going crowds are off the carrying out its. will. If it be granted streets, and for the remainder of the for the sake of argument that the sub- | night; only an occasional street light sidy bill is a bad measure, yet there is left burning.

His private opinion was that the bounty men always left a few animals so that they could come hack again. A demonstrntor of the biological survey of the United States Department of Agriculture visited this man's farm 1 and showed him how to use poison. The cost of the first application was $1.50 for poison and $21 for labor for seven days' time. A second application Is yet to be made to complete r-radicatlon. but after the first application only one fresh gopher mound could be found. blocked in the senate if four or five men make up their minds thnt they do not want to see it written Into the statute books. It Is promised today, by the proponents of a rule to make voting on a masure possible In the senate, thai they will carry their campaign through until such a rule is adopted.

He did tell me the truth !** It was as if the red wing had abruptly borne mute witness. Dwight's tone now mounted. His manner, It mounted too. "Even If It is true." said he. "I desire that you should keep silent ami protect my family from this scandal. I merely mention my doubts to you for your own profit. "My own profit!" She said no more, but rose and moved to the door. "Lulu—you see! With PI and all!" Ina begged. "We Just couldn't have this known—even If It was so." "You have it In your hands," said Dwtfht, Mto repay me. Lirtu, for anytajpf that jroa feel I may have done 'for yea In the pnst.

Lulu went on, Into the passage. "Wasn't she married when she thought she was?" Mrs. Bett cried shrilly. "Mamma," said Ina. "Do, please, remember Monona. Yes — Dwight thinks she's married all right now— and that it's all right, all the time." "Well, I hope so, for pity sakes," said Mrs. Bett, and left the room with her daughter. Hearing the stir, Monona upstairs lifted her voice: "Mamma! Come on and hear my "prayers, why don't you?" When they came downstairs next morning, Lulu had breakfast ready. Weill" cried Ina in her curving tones, "if this isn't like old times." Lulu said yes, it was like old times, and brought the bacon to the table. "Lulu's the only one In this house can cook the bacon so's it'll chew." Undor Thoot Prohibitions, Which Loosed a Thouaand Speculations, Di Was Vary Nearly Paralysed. Mrs. Bett volunteered. She was wholly affable, and held contentedly to Ina's last word that Dwight thought now tt was all right. "Hof" said Dwight. "The happy family, once more about the festive toaster.**, Ha ganged the moment to call for good cheer. Ins* too. became breesy. bltthe. Monona caught their spirit and laughed, head thrown well back and gently shaken. "Hash. No, Now don't ask any more questions.*' "Well, cant I tell Bobby and Jenny she's here?" "No. Don't Bay anything at all about her." "But, mamma. What has she done?" "Di! Do as mamma tells you. Don't you think mamma knows best?" Di of course did not think so. had not thought so for a long time. But now Dwight said: "Daughter! ' Are you a little girl or are you our grown-up young lady?" "I don't know." said Dl reasonably, "but 1 think you're treating me like a little girl now.* "Shame. Di." said Ina. unabashed by the accident of reason being on the side of Di. "I'm eighteen," Di reminded them forlornly, "and through high school." "Then act so," boombed her father. Raffled, thwarted, bewildered, Dl went over to Jenny Plow's and there imparted understanding by the simple process of letting Jenny guess, to questions skillfully shaped. When Dwight said. "Look at my beautiful handkerchief." displayed a hole,' sent his lnu- for a better. Lulu, with a manner of haste, addressed hi in : "Dwight, it's a funny thing, hut I haven't Nlnian's Oregon address." "Well?" "Well, I wish you'd give it to me." Dwight tightened and lifted his lips. "It would-seem," he said, "that vou have no real use for that particular address, Lulu." "Yes, I have. I want It. You have It, haven't you, Dwight?" "Certainly I have it>' "Won't you please write it down for me?" She had ready a bit of paper and a pencil stump. "My dear Lulu, now why revive anything? Why not he sensible and leave this alone? No good can come b y - " "But why shouldn't I have his address?" "If everything Is over between you, why should you?" "But you say he's still my husband." Dwight flushed. "If my brother has shown his inclination as plainly as I judge that he 1ms, It is certainly not my. place to put you in touch with him again." "You won't give It to me?" "My dear Lulu, In all kindness— no." His Ina came running hack, bearing handkerchiefs with different colored borders for hlra to choose from. He chose the Initial that she had embroidered, and had not the good taste not to kiss her. • • • • * • • They were all on the porch that evening, when Lulu came downstairs. "Where are you going?" Ina demanded, sisterly. And on hearing that Lulu had an errand, added still more sisterly: "Well, but mercy, what you so dressed up for?" Lulu was in a thin black and white gown which they had never seen, and wore the tilting hat with the red wing. "Ninlan bought me this," Lulu only said. "But, Lulu, don't you think it might be better to keep, well—out of sight for a few days?" Ina's lifted look besought her. "Why?" Lulu asked. "Why set people wondering till we have to?" "They don't have to wonder, far as I'm concerned," said Lulu, and went down the walk. Ina looked at Dwight. "She never spoke to me like that In her life before," she said. She watched her sister's black and white figure going directly down the street. "That gives me the funniest feeling," said Ina, "as if Lulu had on clothes bought for her by some one that wasn't—that was—" "By her husband who has left her," said Dwight sadly. "Is that what It is, papa?" Di asked alertly. For a wonder, she was there; had been there the greater part of the day—most of the time staring, fascinated, at her Aunt Lulu. "That's what It is, my little girt," said Dwight, and shook his head. "Weil, I think it's a shame," said Di stoutly. "And I think Uncle Nlnian Is a slunge." "DI!" "I do. And Td be ashamed to think anything else. Td like to tell everybody." "There Is," said Dwight, "no need for secrecy—now." "Dwight!" said Ina—Ina's eye* always remained expressionless, but it must have been her lashes that looked s*> startled "No need repeated with Armases "The treth la Laha's haahand ha* tired of her and sent her home.

"Well," She Thought, Almost lr> Ina's Own Manner. tlce—with only one or two there had she to go through her examination. Then she went to the general delivery window, tense for a new ordeal. To her relief, the face which was shown there was one strange to her, a slim youth, reading a letter of his own, and smiling. "Excuse me." said Lulu faintly. The youth looked up, with eyes warmed by the words on the pink paper which he held. "Could you give me the address of Mr. Ninlan Deacon?" "Let's see—you mean Dwight Deacon, I guess?" "No. It's his brother. He's been here. From Oregon. I thought he might have given you his address—" she dwindled away. "Walt a minute," said the youth. "Nope. No address here. Say, why "don't you send It to his brother? He'd know. Dwight Deacon, the dentist." "I'll do that." Lulu said absurdly, and turned' away. She went back up the street, walking fast now to get sway from them all. Once or twice she pretended not to see a familiar face. But when she passed the mirror In an insurance office window, she saw her reflection and at Its appearance she felt surprise and pleasure. "Well!" she thought, almost in Ina's own mannerf Abruptly her confidence rose.' Something of this confidence was still upon her when she returned. They were in the dining room now, all save Di, who was on the porch with Bobby, and Monona, who was in bed and might be heard extravagantly singing. Lulu sat down with her hat on. When Dwight inquired playfully, I "Don't we look like company?" she^ did not reply. He looked at her speculatively. Where had she gone, with whom had she talked, what had she told? Ina looked at her rather fearfully. But Mrs. Bett rocked content, edly and ate cardamom seeds. "Whom did you see?" Ina asked. Lulu named them. "See them to talk t o r from Dwtght. Oh, yes.

Trousers of ordinary mufti patterns will take the place of puttees and breeches. The coat, instead of being buttoned to the neck, is cut with lapels in the English fashion, and the back is belted, much like the popular sport coat.

Drastic proposals are looked for in the commission's report, which likely will be incorporated into Governor Alex J. Groeaheck's annual message and because the 'co-related bills are understood to be ready, taxation probably will be one of the first issues taken up. Although Governor Groesbeck and Attorney General Merlin Wiley, as exofficio members of the commission, took Bcant interest in the public bearings, they were in frequent conference with the commission members, and it can be depended upon the report expresses the governor's wishes. Chairman George Lord prepared it and other members concurred unanimously. Contents ot the commission's report are being carefully guarded but developments in the commission's hearings make it appear likely these are some'X>f the matters to be covered: Removal of tax exemptions: on bonds. Move to secure declaration of intangible property, with spreading ot ad valorem taxes, at a rate considerably lower than the general ad valorem rate, against its assessed valuation. Proposed enactment of a gasoline tax of one cent per gallon. Adjustment of the present corporation tax rate so as to remove inequalities in the minimum and maximum limitations. Application of primary school fund money, in a limited number of extreme cases, to general fund uses. (This recommendation would seek to equalize the present excessive burden on general property in communities where railroad property, subject only to specific primary school fund taxes, makes up an unusual part of the aggregate assessed valuation). Revision of the present state tax commission to meet objections raised in many quarters against its cost of operation, and at the same time readjusting the periods of tax equalization as between counties, to reduce the cost Involved in annual equalizations. Changing the tax laws has, for years, been a legislative hobby. With the cos^ of the state government mounting, year by year, as its various activities are expanded, there developed in the last session of the legislature a realization that real estate was staggering under its tax burden and could not carry more. The tax commission was created with the idea of studying the problem and it possible spreading the load.

Beattie, deputy labor commissioner, heard a strange case here for the Industrial accident board. Oscar Seegmiller employed by his brothers, John and Walter, as emergency delivery man, took his sister Abble to the home of a dying relative, the trip being made one Sunday. Near Mt. Morris, the destination, the Seegmiller auto collided with another and the driver was injured. He seeks damages on the ground that he was in the employ of his brothers and they ordered him to make the drive. The insurance company contends it was a family matter, and the injury was not suffered In the course of regular employment. The decision has been withheld tor consideration as there is no precedent for the la* sue, Mr. Beattie says. RI0TST0 COST CHICAGO$500,000 Race Clash in 1919 Now Being Settled For by City.

Tampers, mutantur et nos mutamur In lUls- By JOHN DICKINSON 8HERMAN HE Latin has a terse and forceful way of - putting things. Now, the first quotation above has been rendered In free-and-easy style: Old Han Horace, sprigged with bay Truly thou dost say, sir, Tline speeds faster on its way Than the swiftest racer. Clever, bnt the Latin says IfThore forcibly: Crowned-wlth-laurel Horace, what you say ia true: Flies than the southeast wind faster time the devoured of things. And the second quotation above neatly supplements the first by saying: Times change and we are changed In them. All of which suggests most forcibly l destroyed the old-fasbof observing several ol itlonal holidays; that changed and we in them. Now, there's the Fourth of July, for example. The old-fashioned Fourth is so entirely gone that we don't quite know what tn do with the day. In the old days we used to twist the Lion's tail when we didn't know what else to do, but since we fought side by side with the British in the Great War, that seems as out of place as do firecrackers and the casualty list of small boys. And It's Just about the same with New Year's Day. About all that's left us is to listen to the whistle* blowing at midnight and to make pmd resolutions. And what changes the day baa seen since first Americans begun Its celebration! America's celebration of New Tear's Day owes nothing to Puritan New England. In the North New York, being Dutch, was the center of New Year's gayety. The South, being English, bnt not Puritan, also celebrated enthusiastically. The custom of making calls probably la as old as civilized man; it Is likely that It originated Independently in almost every dime. Old-time European chieftains used to set "New Year's" apart as a day on which they would condescend to receive substantial tributes from their underlings. Queen Elizabeth received New Year's calls every year, and there was always much rivalry between her ambitious courtiers as to the quantity and value of the gifts they should bestow upon the virgin sovereign. It was on a New Year's Day that Sir Walter Raleigh gladdened the queen's heart with a memorable pair of silk stockings—the first ever made 'and worn In England. In Holland the custom of making New Year's calls bad been general long before the settlement of New Amsterdam, and the natives of the Netherlands who came to live tn the New World brought the practice with then. And, of course, they had plasty to cat and drink—for who ever heard of Dutchmen who did not take good care of their stomachs? Up t o the beginning of the Nineteenth century the typical New Year's a neighborly it became an observance hw fashion and was observed In every cfty of any afsa hi the conn try. I k e ywaager woman of such boonenetds a* bad daughters were the noat- Mtt was their rivalry, one ., in respect of richly loadtables and elegance of V £X #»**{£& •<M]f**> toilet The "beaux." and "dandles," and "gallants" attired themselves in their best and started out early in the morning, calling first at* the houses where matrons received, and afterward upon the younger ladles. The drinks that were offered at every house of any prominence were ardent and diverse. It was not until about the middle of the century or thereabouts that the nbuse which finally led to the custom's decline began. For years the dandies rivaled one another in the length of their calling lists, and the calls soon came to be nothing more than hasty gorging* of cake and gulpin gs of wine. Then the ladies—the matrons as well as the young women—began to vie with one another in the number of their callers. This led to the most extraordinary practices. Callers were recruited, drummed up. Cards announcing that Miss This-or-That would be "at home" on January 1 were sent out almost indiscriminately. The Sunday newspapers began to print lists of those who would receive, and the bouses of those mentioned in the lists were sure to be besieged by numbers of men whom the ladies had never met or beard of and desired never to meet again. lien would go calling in couples and parties, and tven in'droves of 30 or more, remaining as short a time at each stopping place as possible, and announcing everywhere how many calls they bad already made, and how many they expected to make before they finished. At every place they drank. The result was a most appalling assortment of "jags" long before sundown, and a crowding of the police stations at night. This New Yearns observance finally became so abused that it was called a "national evil." and was attacked by reformers everywhere and ministers thundered against it from the pulpit. Finally fashion set its face against It and It died a gradual death. Its place was taken after a while by eating and drinking In the restaurants, and by the street carnivals. If Croesus himself had come back to earth and had visited New York— or any big city hi the country—in 1805, be couldn't have got a seat tn any restaurant of note after ten o'clock the night of December SL for an Ma fnba)oQS wealth. In fact, ha probably cuuMnt hare got tnatdo the door. Every table was engaged—at big prices and long in advance. Diners had to get out at nine o'clock and guards at the doors saw that none except those with credentials got in. During the last hour of the Old Year the people feasted, and at the first stroke of the New Year everybody in every restaurant arose, wine-glass in hand, and drank a health to the New Year. It was comparatively quiet indoors, but the people In the streets made noise enough to scare young 1906. Every sort of noise-making Implement known to man except cannon and dynamite bombs was in active use. "Get your horns and ticklers!" was the prayer roared by thousands of fakers all evening. Trucks and wagons were halted at the curb, loaded with tin horns and thin sticks with a bunch of hackle-feathers at the tip. If you were a real devilish New Year's humorist you proceeded like this: First, tickle some stranger under the chin with the feathers; then, as he turned to protest, you blew the horn in bis face. A universal custom of New Year's of those days was the carrier's New Year's address. This was often in rhyme if the carrier or any of bis friends could string t be Jingling lines together or find an old carrier's address to copy. Such verses as these were popular: This day devoted now to mirth. To open bouse and socta! hearth. New friendship mounts on airy wings And gives her tuneful harp new strings. While plenty spreads a festive board. Of wine a >d food and ample board. In idleness and laughter gay. To spend the hours this happy day. AJl save the carrier, whose snowy feet Still must pace up the snowy street. So give to him a moment's heed. Since he alone this comfort needs. And to your ample. Jovial store Let him not find a closed door, etc, etc. By 1914 there were strong Indications of a saner celebration of New Year's. The feasting in restaurants New Year's Eve was still in full blast, with singing and dancing added. But most of the large cities had ordered the police to enforce a "sane" celebration on the streets. In consequence ihere was lees noise and rowdyism oat of doors. Chicago, for instance, forbade horns, confetti and ticklers. Cleveland probably had the "sanest" New Year's Eve In 1914. That city gave the New Year a "community greeting." in keeping with the spirit of community Christmas celebrated a week before. Twelve bands, with 280 musicians, were massed in the public square. To an audience of thousands J they played hymn* and patriotic airs. I Announcement by the police that the i midnight closing law would be enforced rigidly cut hotel and restaurant festivities down markedly. In Cincinnati the police had. the promise of every hotel, cafe and saloon keeper to dose promptly at midnight. Similar conditions prevailed in Detroit and Indianapolis. Then came the Great War. And then prohibition. So at present the celebration of New Year's Eve aad New Year's Day ia betwixt and between. What will It be ten years from now? And what a century hence?

Some are cut very wide at the armhole and are so shaped as to snugly encircle the wrist. A simple cloth dress from Vionnet has large, loose kimono sleeves rut ID with the bodice.

Red in faded tones like those seen In ancient Pompeiun friezes Is favored. CJreen Is less m evidence than it was In tbe spring. Silk and Wool Combinations. As for materials Vionnet uses chiefly in woolen the velours de laine in both plain and ribbed weaves and tn solid color and melange. The latter gives somewhut the effect of a frieze, especially If the white illumination is obtained through the use of artificial silk, as it often is. This gives a sparkling fleck all through the dark woolen ground. Crepe de chine and crepe romaln for afternoon and evening are us much used as heretofore, also crepe satin. In the latter material she continues to jse both surfaces, getting from the contrast of crepe and satin most desirable results. She uses some plain sutin. a consldernble amount of plain velvet and for evening fine tulle-like net and niousseline de sole. The continuation of crepe de chine In great quantities bears striking evidence of the fact thut fashions change slowly. So those who spend several years in bringing certain fabrics lo the foreground have the compensation of knowing that a material, having once fchleved success, is likely to retain its place for many years. Vionnet was the tirst lo introduce the simple crepe de chine dress uith overlapping front in geometrical outline. She still retains this type, but now bands It In striking colors of two opposing tones. For Instance, on a gray crepe de chine she may use hands of duck blue and pule salmon pink.

For example, on an evening gown of Dine nnd sliver brocade there is an embroidery done in silver and crystal beads, which accentuates the pattern In the fabric.

Gay Ribbon Girdles. Street and afternoon frocks make liberal use of ribbon. It is s smart mode to trim s dark frock by hanging a panel of bright ribbon from the girdle tt the front or hock or st the sides.

The dnlly papers are delivered on the outward bound trip, which begins at New Bedford. When the island steamer is almost half'way across the sound and nearly abeam of th* lightship members of the crew roll up small bundles of papers, tying them securely with twine and Hoe themselves along the rail. The helmsman of the steamer brings his veaesl as close as possible to the lightship, sometimes within 15 feet, and the news paper deliveries let go their volley. It Is a poor day when half a dozen rolls of paper do not land aboard for the men so far from land and otherwise newsies*. Sometimes the bundles drop alongside and are fished up with long-handled nets. HANBONE'S MEDITATIONS SINCE the mode calls for long knitted wool gloves, no longer will wintry winds stnd shivers of discomfort up' cne's loose flowing coat sleeves Who of as has not experienced that feeling of chilled wrists and cold hand*, Just i.ecause our otherwise protecting coat or fur wrap has an open cuff or flare? Especially Is there illBcomfort In the long cape when one \H forced to teach out f^om beneath its coinfort* uble folds. Thanks to the new knitted stoves, some of which reach almost to the elbow, this exposure of arms nnd hands Is In the past. With all due respect to the comfortrfvtog qualities of the knitted gloves, It is In handsome appearance that they make their greatest apoeal. They add a decidedly up-to-the-moment touch to one's street or sports costume. School girls delight In wearing these long knitted gloves with their slip-on sweaters. They are popular not only for spor**? wear, but pulled up over the snuff cloth sleeve of one's tailored suit, the knitted glove presents the chic of a Parisian mosquetalre. Various styles are represented ID these knitted gloves from gauntlet to long close-fitting types. They rang« from plain-kLitted stitch, perfect fitting, to exquisite types in brush wool, which have in their fine finesse no tracf of clumsiness. A few knitted glove suggestions are represented In the accompanying lllus tratioa including: pair of brown gaunt let knitted gloves with buff border; knitted brush wool gauntlet gloves In brown heather with green and brownstriped top; also a pair in purple heather tones, with brown and buffchecked top. One finds a broad assortment of heather mixtures in any color combination desired. 1« choosing a pair of these Jaunty gloves here are some Interesting de tails which go to make tip the most de sirable styles, namely: fine ribbed stitch fingers; rack-stltch palms; j.li able ribbed-stitch wrist piece, and those with three ribs on the hack of the glove as Illustrated here. «orvM*r IN vttnw rnnhm wo* r AH WEAW TELL BoUT SOHh F<?LKS VNMUT KIE.P3 SA'DAV FOW PI LAWDS PAV BUT SHUCKS.'

Through the clinic doubtful cases are diagnosed early enough to permit the successful treatment of the disease, and convalescent patients are guarded against the danger of a hidden relapse. Loss of appetite and decrease in weight are symptoms which-call for a thorough chest examination, for a deranged stomach Is often one of the first signs of tuberculosis. Just at this period, when the patient believes himself only the victim of "stomach trouble" or "overwork", the clinic can render invaluable servicer by diagnosing the disease so early that there is every chance for Its permanent arrest. The safest course for the man in doubt is to have a chest examination. The examination certainly will not give him tuberculosis, if he Is free from the disease; and if he really has it, early discovery of the fact may be his salvation. ' At the other end of the story is the convalescent, the discharged sanatorium patient. A return examlna- i tion is a safeguard for him which should under no circumstances be neglected.

put on a lengthy program of songs, recitations, dialogues and mu sical number by the smaller children Santa Claus as usual Arrived at the end of the program and made the program enjoyable for the children by handing out gifts Sunday night a Christmas song service was held at the Congrega ional church directed by R MacFarland It consisted of a chorus of 85 voices who rendered Christmas carroU

Eighteenth century methods I have suggested in these columns previously that the national labor relations board was riding for a fall It was riding too high There was bound to be a serious reaction The boards arrogance, unfairness, over bearing attitude, its general contempt for anyone disagreeing with its conclusions were elements certain to lead to an eventual showdown The time of that showdown sens not far distant It is likely that the4 boardand its staff of ism cpntrolled theorists will pay a hevy price for failure to use common sense and adopt a judicial viewpoint, The same type

Each of my many competi tors makes the best brand and they all will tell you so Admitting having the second best brand evidently placed him in a position where he was without competition and his sales results proved it A large baking company has successfully marketed a brand of bread in markets long held by established competitors The new bread was well advertised in local newspapers But under instructions from a president who knew the power of under selling, salesmen sold each grocer one or two loaves less than the stores normal demand Grocers were soon telling late afternoon customers, Im sorry we are all sold out of that bread It was not very long before storekeepers as well as customers unconsciously thought of it as the fastest selling brand and therefore the best bread Grocers unconsciously recommended it to customers and customers soon began demanding it of grocers and its success was assured UPTODATE REVOLUTION T HERE could be no more convincing way for the historian of the future to point out the high standards of living prevailing in this country than to contrast todays demands of those who want to overthrow our institutions with the demands of the revolutionists of other eras in the worlds history The French masses cried for bread and failing to get it brought on the French revolution But when a present day advocate of revolution in this country recently made a speech he said Why should the citizens at least 90 per cent of thembe imprisoned behind the cruel bars of want when within their grasp there are plenty of shoes, of clothes, of motor cars, of refrigerators to which they are eptitled From this point of view it is the salesmen who sell modern conven iences who are our most important national asset for the prevention of revolutions We have 7

Deuneii Why a Farmer Should Buy and Keep War BOPS Ly G W KedlimJ Head TJept, of Agricultural Economics University of Pennsylvania T HERE are many corbelling reasons why farmers should buy War Bonds But there is one reason, often overlooked during tfmes like the present, whicii I believe is fundamental to the in dividual farmer That reason is Farmers should buy War Bonds now to protect their personal financial position against falling prices at some future time The typital farmer has most if not all of his funds invested in his farming business In other words, he has investments in real estate, livestock, equipment and other items that go to make up the usual farm business Relatively few farmers have sizable investments outside of the farm Farm investments are excellent hedges against inflation By that I mean that when prices in gen eral rise, usually the prices of farms,, livestock and equipment also rise to some extent, so Jtit the purchasing power of the investment changes but little Therefore investments in farms retain their purchasing power better than investments in fixed dollar securities in times of rising prices It is for this reason that many nonfarmers have been purchasing farms during recent years By E0 doing they are attempting to buy something whose price will in crease as prices in genTl 30 up But investments in iam, rcnl estate au other farm property do not offer protection or hedges sgainst price declines When prices of farm product decline, the prices ex farm lard, and oth T farm property also dccre To make matters worse, ret farm income declines more tin almost anything else, Farmers must look elsewhere to protect themselves against deflation or price declined A relatively email share of a typical fanners investments is in bonds, mortgages or oher hd icliar investments Prerumabiy rch securities maintain their dollar value regardless or the uvd in prices of oth or tsings, T Krefer c, good bonds oiier protection or a hedge against delation or price decline The ivct that most farmers are well hedged ngninst inflation but are raurr ijiy hedged against deflation is one very sniincl rcavn why farmers should purchase War Bonds at tins time By purchasing Bonds they will parlialiy h dge their finances a gurrt decroarrs in prices They art already Idged against price inoxves By being hedged on both siwg irciividuni farmers will be in ihe safwst position to weather the future, regardless of the trend in prices U S Treasury Dcfu icn Baa, Baa, Black Sieeo, Have You Any Wool AWSQSCAN HetS by JULIAN OULENPQTZET W sa itrm yZ y A 1 It if a good thing ID give thanks9 N NOTABLE INSTANCES in Bib caJ history the thanksgiving of individuals and groups has been y accompanied by remarkable demon stations of divine control It is recorded in the sixteenth chapter of the Acts of the Apostles that Paul and Silas, when cast into prison, sang praises unto God at midnight Suddenly, ir an earthquake, the foundalions of the prison were shaken the doors were opened, and every ones bands were loosed Then the keeper of the prison took Paul and Silas into his home, and, listening to the word of Ihe Lord, e rejoiced, believing In God with aJJ his house This is but one of the many proofs of the power of God that have come and are ever coming to the human family through enlightened thanks giving The Psalmist declared Psalms 921, It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, 0 most High The spiritual thought which accompanies true thanksgiving is mighty power for good True thanksgiving is based on the truth that God is All, and that all that really exists is good The creation of God, Mind, Life, Love, is spiritual and good God is All, and His allness is demonstra ble Should we not fill our moments and hours with sincere thanksgiving that divine Love is present and available The allness and power of God refute the material contention that evil is real and powerful God is the infinite Father, and man, AS the child of God, is perfect an free God is not influenced o thanged by our thanksgiving and praise Mary Baker Eddy, in th following paoug in the Christian Science textbook, Science tad Even in their beclouded sense of things, when spiritual reality seemed to them to be a distant unreality, they were supplied with the help that they needed at the moment They had Moses, the Lawgiver Where they faltered, he upheld When they were afraid of the future, he reassured them with Gods gracious promises until they were able to say Numbers 1440, Lo we be here, and will go up unto the place which the Lord hath prom ised History records that they did finally reach the land of Canaan and receive the fruition of their labors Do we ever doubt what the future holds for us, even though we have seen ample evidence of divine guidance and divine protection The Bible designates God by many names, but none earry more comfort to the struggling heart than the name of Love DivineLove, creative and sustaining Principle, never forsakes mau In Genesis we read, God saw every thing that he had made, and behold, it was very good Genesis 131 it would be as impossible for God, the divine Love that made all good, including man, to cease His caie of man as for the principle of mathematics eventually to withdraw its support of the idea that two times two equals four So today, with our future yet to be drawn into the outlines of the present, lot us accept God as He is, as divine lite, Truth, and Love, and admit no other power or presence Let us heed the counsel of the Master, Christ Jesus John 1236, While ye have light, believe in tho light, that ye may be the children of light Let us recognize that God, divine Lovt, guards us in all our experiences and His hand is our steady guide both now and ever Sooner or late we must accept thisconclusion let ucome to it early, yea, at once Then shall we find not only the present good, but the
