WALKED FROM TAMPA TO RAL- EIGH MoneyOnly for One Ticket Man and Wife Brave Long TrampTogether Until Releif Comes. Here is a real human interest story which appeared in. Friday morning’s News and Observer: The tide that ebbs and flows past the little dest in the Union Station where Mrs. Brandsher keep virgil for the Travelers’ Aid casts up many and strange derelicts. The silk, the lost, the broke, the grieved and the hungry stop hesitatingly within the shelter of that little harbor, because they cannot' go on. And always they are helped, if there is any vestige of evidence that they are not imposters. Stranger than any of the strange flotsam that has come that way, and more pathetic and more appealing was a young married couple that drifted in Tuesday night wearier than any that Mrs. Bradsher had ever seen, heartsore, footsore, shorn of all but an abiding love for each other and hope that journey’s end would bring them better fortune. It is eight hundred miles from Tampa to Norfolk. In the cycle of economic events, stagnation has set­ tled on many a one time thriving locality. It was so • in Tampa, Fla., where this young married couple lived very happily. Prp-' verty overtook them, but in.Nor­ folk there was promise of grainful work. The wife Would not let the husband go alone, and the husband would not let the wife remain alone in Tampa uncared for and unprovid­ ed for. • ... J- J '-V They walked to Raleigh, cover­ ing the six hundred miles since June oth. Twenty miles on that hot; staggering day that Tuesday, and at night, they could go no futher. The thing was too much for the wife who was not born to / the: driving necessity that had befallen her. They drifted in upon-Mrs. Bradsher and told their pitiful; heroic story. Though she has heard many tales of woe, Mrs. Bradsher was touched more deeply than she -has been be­ fore. For himself the man asked nofh ing, would take nothing, but for the little woman who had walked heside him for six hundred miles he asked a bed, and a chance to rest. Their little money was gone' and they had eaten but sparingly through the day. Out of the me­ agre funds that she had, the Travel - ers’ Aid fed them, -and for the woman she found a bed. The Sal­ vation Army cared for the husband and he kissed his wifejgood night. Mrs. Bradsher went to put her to bed. Her feet, were blistered entirely, the soles of thiem'was one' solid blister that burst-when the pressure of her worn shoes jvere re­ moved. But not a word, of com plaint. She was a gentle grateful 'ttle woman, grieved only at being Operated from her husband, and apprehensive left he should fare uncomfortably. She breathe a V rayer 011 a * chaplet that f~e wore about her neck for her nsband, and the woman who had “tfriended her. : - • , ^While the little woman slept, Bradsher cast about for help! Howling Kicker. Whi^e standing on the cornei last week, we heard a man howling about “hard times,” kicking about the high cost of living, high taxes, the abnormalcy ■ of things in gener­ al. According to this man’s view of conditions, the country is in the middle.of-an awfully bad fix. And to a great extent, he’s entirely right about it, normalcy is not In evidence by any sort of means. But while thus delivering himself, this feliow was holding a cotton rope to which was tied two hound pups; he was loaded to the neck with high-prieed moonshine blook- um; his left jaw was “pooched” out of position with a nickel’s worth of Brown Mule tobacco, and from his lips he was blowing the smoke from 'a cigar.

In ^e night she wdn’t to 'friends, and J esterday she wokethelittle woman 0 tell her that two tickets to. (Norr 0 had been found. ' She was. tveOjoyed. She must- have her Us and, although she' was - barely ? e to walk. And then she wash/ and ironed his clothing- so he miRht “look nice on the train;” ; ' - . ^fjhey went happily away to; the t r f° t^eir dreams, on noon train, Sb/ ^ ! ^r£te^ to Mrs. JBrad- r s eyes was wet a little. .Npf Was a Man of Few'Words. When J; K. Paulding was secre-- tary of the navy he wrote to the postmas.er of a small village in the South as follows: “Sir: This de­ partment wishes to know how far the Tombigbee river runs up.” The answer came back': “It runs down.” The postmaster general was informed of the affair, and f^l- ed.to see the humor of tt. He wrote a letter to the postmaster is hereby revoked. You will turn over funds et cetera. pertaining. to your office to your successor.” - Iu nQ wise put out the pen, and the postmaster general received this: "The revenue for this office for the quarter ending September 30 has been 65 cents; ' its expendi­ tures, same period; for dandles and tWine, 85 cents. Please instruct my successor to adjust balance.” TheRecord is the oldest paper in the county. Only- $1 per year. in all her years as habor master of that little haven of hope has she seen such devotion and such grati­ tude for help. ■ • Tribute to The President. [ The gieatest business man in the United States today (is the president of the' United States. I speak from ac.tual. knowledge because - I speiit a day with presinent Harding in the White House and at the office.. “In my intire expense of four years as a cabinet officer, Iwas in the White House on an average, day, six days each week taken there by (Jutjes1 requiring the-president’s signature. I am very sure that" J never saw the White House so full of people transacting’business ,with the secretaries of the president as there were on my recent visit.- • “President Harding met appoint-, ments for interviews that had beeu made previously,, and moved rapid­ ly through every subject brought to him by people from many of the States of the State of the United States. T feel very 'sure that no one has filled the office of president for many years with such large ex­ perience in- affairs or so capable to; meet" existing conditions with such IaTge experience in affairs or so capable to meet existing conditions with hopeful views, ready to assist' in every possible way. “ Lthink that this, fairly consid,- ered-by the business men of thg country, ought to give great cours age to those of us who are loaded! with problems of finance and .

Hand in Hand. -J (Culpeper Va., Star ) ^Business success and advertising go. hand-in-hand. The.best way to judge the business enterprise of any community is by the size and fre­ quency of the ads in the local paper. All readers are strangers untill they buy- The businees visitors to Cul­ peper is a stranger until he buys a fewmeais; and the permanent re­ sident‘is very much'a stranger at the store he has never been invited to patronize. The large, attractive display advertisement holds atten­ tion never and arouses respect and confidence. It crips out: “Low costs low- overhead, low selling prices, quality good.” It . dominates the pages! of many rooms Ioomsup larg­ er-than the shach. AU advertise­ ments' are read—big and little. Everybody knows that, and the state­ ment calls for ^io argument. But the-merchant who is seeking real business success, and who wants to advertise the best way to get-the most for his money is the one Who realize that the larger the advertise­ ment the greater its pulling pawer. - The Joys of Country.

The corn and tobacco crops throughout this section is going to be better than was thought some time ago. The people of North Carolina are not in any immediate danger of starvation. Depotstreet has been a white elephant to the town and thousands of dollars have been gulped down by said.street but the day is not far distant when old Depot street will be the pride of the town. What this country needs is less laws and stronger enforcement of what we already have—laws and officers that will reach the rich as well” as the poor, all colors and classes regardless of previous con­ dition of servitude. Business is said to be improving throughout the country. The peo­ ple are not making and wasting as much money as they did during war times.but most of us are get­ ting three-meals per day and should not worry. - They certainly can’t have the same kind up there that we. have •here else that Philadelphia horse told of in-dispatches would never have become frightened at short ■ skirts, or rather what they reveal­ ed.—Journal and Tribune. . The County.. Commissioners, at their meeting Monday, called an election for consolidated schools to be held on Tuesday, Sept. 6. The school district has . been cut down to about one third the territory of the former proposed, district and the amount of bonds asked for is•v $45,000 instead of $90,000 as was asked for at the recent election. Nearly everybody, is coming to the Masonic picnic here on Thurs­ day, Aug; ixth.. For 42 years the people of this entire section have ■been coming together and spending the day. in-helping the fatherless and motherless children of the State. A larger crowd than usual is ex­ pected this- year. The South- Yadkin ..' Woman's Missionary Union is in session here this week and Thfe Record, is glad to welcome the good womeu from the various churches in Davie, Ire­ dell and Rowan to ^ our town and trust that they will have a good con­ vention and will enjoy .every minute of their sojourn with us. Doesthe North Carolina auto­ mobile speed law. apply to Mock- ville and Davie county? The Re­ cord editor has been & resident of the town for more than fourteen years, and so-far as we know, there has-never been a man, woman or cfiild. arrested in the town for break­ ing the speed laws, and they are broken every ; day and Sunday too. There, is also a Sta e law forbidding any person under 16 years of age driving a car.. • The Record is informed that a- nither election will be held here this summer or'fall on the consol­ idated school question, and that thf bond ksue will be cut in-half Und -the d i to a dis­ tance gf ndt mor-^tnau two miles from the centet-.oLtbwn, thus eli­ minating the necessity for trucks to get the children to school; The Record opposed consolidation in the ' Tecent electiou because of the bad roads and the cost- of getting the . children to school, .but if.we under­ stand the hew proposition it appears to be a good thihg and we believe it will carry when.presented to tlje voters in the right Ugbt, Kohloss Wants No “Wets.” Prohibition Director R; A. Koh loss, who is head of the-federal pro- hibition enforcement forces in North Carolina, and who- succeeds Col.. T. H. Vanderford1 with headquarters in the postoffice building, is now in complete control, has appointed Mr. W. Henry Hobson, of this city, chief of the executive.department, and he will be on duty at headquarters all the time. A. H. Price, Esq, has been"named legal advisor of the state prohibition enforcement department. These are the only appointments made so far by the new enforcement director. However, there are quite a num­ ber of appointments at the disposal of Director Kohloss, who says he will be in no great hurry to fill these as he is desirous of naming efficient and capable men, men who are in sympathy with the cause, to all places to be filled by him. . He has asked the assistance of all; county Republican chairmen throughout the state in securing-the best men to work under him. No man who bears the/eputauon of being an anti-pro-, hibitionist will be considered for ap­ pointment to any of the "dry” en­ forcement offices under Mr. Kohloss, and every one named must file, let­ ters of recommendation from at least two ministers of the gospel testify-, ing to the sobriety and integrity of the applicant. In order th&t he may be enabled to carry out . this policy Director Kohloss has sent the fol­ lowing letter to every county chair­ man in North Carolina: ‘‘Having been appointed Prohibit­ ion Director of North ■ Carolina, kindly permit, me to suggest the fol­ lowing: . "In the office of the Prohibition Director there are several positions to be filled by capable men, and as a Republican, it is my purpose to se­ lect Republicans to fill these po­ sitions. - - “While there are not a sufficient number of existing vacancies to per­ mit of the appointment of a Repub Iican from each county In North Carolina, yet it is desirable, that can­ didates from each county, be- recom­ mended so that the best qualified men in North Carolina may.- be se­ cured. “The office of the Prohibition Di­ rector is an important one. It is the duty of the Prohibition Director to undertake the suppression of illegal manufacture, distillation and distri­ bution pf intoxicating liquor. The proper functioning of this office can only be brought' about by thp ap­ pointment of. men within the De­ partment whose character and in­ tegrity is above reproach,: and whose reputation for sobriety, obedience to the law, and enforcement - - of the Prohibition Statues is:.unquestion­ able.- Men directly or indirectly in terested in the traffic or illegal man­ ufacture of intoxicating liquor, or. men. who have hitffertofore borne the reputation of-, being, anti-prohi­ bition, men will not be considered. “Bearing in mind that the State of North Carolina today is looking to the office of the Prohibition Di rector for the enforcement of the prohibition laws in this state, I wilb ask you to recommend only those men who in every way conform to the qualifications hithertofore men­ tioned. “The Commissioner of Interna] Revenue is a son of North Carolina and his record and progress in office will be largely measured by the re­ cord and progress made. in. this state Itisourduty to sustain -him by a prompt and efficient enforcement of. the prohibition laws, It is my pur­ pose to perform the duties' of my office to the very best of ray ability and I shall expect and require each of my subordinates to. do likewise. “Each of the candidates that you should obtain letters from two Min­ isters of the Gospel living, in his com­ munity that testifies to=the sobriety and integrity of the applicant.”— Salisbury Evening Post.- ■ - Editor^Record:—Above is a state­ ment .that makes interesting, reading to all the people. Mr. Kohlpss may have been born in Russia: he may not be a-' native = American,; but he. sounds clear as.a bell at; ,!Hpiighton the great question of the:renforce­ ment of the daws of . his” adopted country. ‘ My acquaintance with him is slight, but if he is.not all wool and a yard wide his words belie . bis in­ tentions.

Towns, the well-known and popular proprietor of the Sanitary Meat Market, of Marshall, Mich. “I had stomach trouble of the worst sort and. was going down hill so fast I thought I would have to give up my business. I was so nervous and worried I dreaded to see night come, as it meant little for me and then in the morning I was so fagged out I dreaded to go to my market. “The money I spent for Tanlac was the best Investment I ever ■ made. I never dreamed a medicine could do the work it did for me. Three bottles was all I needed to make me as sound as a dollar. I never felt better or more like working in my life than I do right now. I eat anything I want, my stomach is In good shape and I am brimful of energy. I sleep all night without turning over and get up in the morning as happy as a boy. “Kot only has Tanlac made me feel fit and fine, but I have also gained twenty-five pounds in weight. If any­ body wants to know more about what I think of Tanlac, let them come to me and I-will be glad to tell them. It certainly hasn’t an equal.” Tanlac Is sold by leading druggists everywhere.—Advertisement. “The Price of Liberty.” The quotation, “Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty,” is from a speech delivered by John Ehilpot Curran In 1808.

Unless you-see the name “Bayer” on package or on tablets you are not getting genuine Aspirin pre­ scribed by physicians for twenty-one years and proved safe by millions. Take Aspirin only as told In the Bayer package for Colds, Headache, Keural- gia, Rheumatism, Earache, Toothache, Lumbago, and for Pain.

WHY DRU66ISTS RECOMMEND SWAMP-ROOT For many years druggists have watched with much interest the remarkable record maintained by Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and-bladder medi­ cine. It is a physician’s prescription. Swamp-Boot is ' a strengthening medi­ cine. It helps the kidneys, liver and blad­ der do the work nature intended they should do. ■ ■ Swamp-Boot has stood the test of yean. It is sold by all druggists on its merit and -it should help you. Ko other kidney medicine has so many friends. - Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start treatment at once. However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kihner & Co., Binghamton, K. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper. Young Rascals.

It’s mercury. Calomel acts like dynamite on a slug­ gish liver. When calomel comes into contact with spur bile it crashes into it, causing cramping and nausea. If you feel bilious, headachy, con­ stipated and all knocked out just go to your druggist and get a bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone for. a few cents, which is harmless vegetable substi­ tute for dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful and if it doesn’t start your liver and straighten you up better and quicker than nasty calomel and with- - out making you sick, you just-go back and get your money. If you take calomel today you’ll be sick and nauseated tomorrow; be­ sides, it may salivate you, while if you trike Dodson’s Liver Tone you will wake up feeling great, full of ambl- ; tton, and' ready for work or play. It’s harmless,'pleasant and safe to give to Children; they like it. . J S w i*? ?

There 1S no best breed of poultry, That, at least, Is the opinion1 of men In the United States Department of Agriculture who have ’ been studying the business for years, and have had experience with all varieties of all breeds In America. Tp go among your friends and ask for advice.about the kind of chickens to start with would be about as productive of con­ flicting views as if you asked for help In buying a motor car or a typewriter. Every man has bis likings, and- some have good reasons for them, but In the end the'beginner will have to be the judge; wherefore the opinion of the department specialists will be about the best guide: Keep only one vari­ ety of breed, and select the breed that suits your purpose best. Be sure of one thing—have a standardbred male at the head of the flock. Sudi a bird will improve the quality of the stock materially. A mongrel male will produce no improvement. These are the reasons: Standard- bred fowls produce uniform products which bring higher prices. Standardbred stock and eggs sold for breeding purposes, bring higher prices than market quotations. Stundardbred fowls can be exhibit­ ed, and thus compete for. prizes. Eggs and stock from mongrel fowls are not sold for breeding purposes. Mongrel fowls ,are not exhibited In poultry shows or expositions. General-purpose breeds are best suited to most farms where ,the pro­ duction of both eggs and meat Is de­ sired. The four most popular repre­ sentatives of this class are the Ply­ mouth Rock, Wyandotte, Orpington, and Rhode Island Red. AU these breeds, with the exception of the Orpington, are of American or­ igin. They, are characterized by hav­ ing yellow skin and legs, and' lay brown-shelled eggs. The Orpington Is of BngIish origin, has a white skin, and also lays brown-shelled eggs.

"We might, that is true,” said Mrs. Black Pig. "Yes, it Is true, we most certainly mighLv said Mrs.: Pink Pig. "Then you’d better not talk about being so superior,” said Miss Ham. “Let us not talk ,about anything,” said Mrs. Plnk Pig) “for here comes our dlpner.” : “We.wiU-talk of nothing for awhile now,” said Mrs. Black Pig. 1 1 “We will simply eat and be happy,” said Pinky’s mother. “And I wlU join you, squeal, squeal,” -said Miss .Bam. “Pm a sociable- pig and PU Join you.” “Sociable,” the others squealed, “you’re greedy and that Is why you \are 'joining us In: eating the meal' the farmer is bringing to us.” _____ * I M fekV I* - ';7 -- « i - * .e A ^ 'A AST A Flock of White Plymouth Rocks—A Good Gonerai-Purpose Breed. ,i can get a detailed description of aU fowls of Americsn origin In Farmers’ Bulletin 806 on “Standard Varieties of Chickens.

The American Class,” which may be had upon application to the Division of Publications, United States Department of Agriculture. ■ ■' The Mediterranean or egg breeds are best suited for the production of white-shelled eggs. Representatives of this class are bred largely, for eggs rather than for meat. Among the popular breeds are L'eghorn, Minorca, AnconaondAndaluslan. An outstanding characteristic of the egg breeds is the fact that ,they are classed as nonsitters; that Is, as a rule they do not become broody and hatch .their eggs. When fowls of this class are kepL .artificial incubation and brooding usually aw employed. Farmers’ Bulletin 898, “Siandard Va­ rieties of Chickens. II. The Mediter­ ranean Class,” tells about this class. Langshans, Brahmas, Cochins, and Comish fowls . belong in the meat breeds, rather than for eggs, and al­ though cessed 'for meat are some­ times kept as general-purpose fowls. They are all heavier and larger than the egg breeds, or those of the gen­ eral-purpose class, and lay brown- shelled eggs. Farmers’ Bulletin 1052, "Standai1Oi varieties of Chickens. HI. Asiatic, English, and French Classes” describes the breeds In this class. Fowls for breeding purposes Bhouid be strong, healthy, vigorous birds. The comb, {acri, and. wattles should be a bright red, eyes bright and fairly prominenL head comparatively broad, short, and .not long or crow-shaped; legs set well apart arid StraighL plur mage clean and smooth. . : The beginner in poultry will be care- ful to have a home ready for his flock before he gets it.

HAVE NEED OF MUCH FOOD Voracious Appetites of Growing Boys Are Natural and Not to Be Wondered At. Dr. E. F.

CHAPTER XII—Continued. —Ifl » “Why,” he spluttered after a mo­ ment, “a lot of these people’s names *re absolutely housewold words In the country. They may be swine—they probably are. Thank Qodi Tve very rarely met any; but they ain’t crimi­ nals.” “?<o more is Peterson," grinned the AiBerLcan; “at least not on that book, gee here, Captain, It’s pretty clear what’s happening. In any country to­ day you’ve got all sorts and conditions of people with more wind than brain. Ihey just can’t stop talking, and as yet. it’s not a criminal offense. Some of ’em believe what they say, like Spin­ dle-shanks upstairs; some of ’em don’t. And if they don’t, It makes ’em worse; they start writing as Well. You’ve got clever men—intellectual men—look at some of those guys In the first-class general leeturers—and they’re the worst of the lot Then you’ve got an­ other class—the men with the business brain, who think they’re getting Uie sticky end of It, and use the talkers to pull the chestnuts out of the fire for them. And the chestnuts, who are the poor blamed decent workingmen, are promptly dropped In the ashpit to Seep ’em quiet. They all want something for nothing, and I guess It can’t be done. Ihey all think they're fooling one an­ other, and what's really going at the moment is that Peterson Is fooling the whole bunch. He wants all the strings in his hands, and It looks to me as if he'd got 'em there. He’s got the money —and we know where he got It from ; he's got the organization—all either red-hot revolutionaries, or intellectual windstorms, or calculating knaves. He’s amalgamated ’em, Oaptain; and the whole blamed lot, whatever they may think, are really working for him." Drummond thoughtfully lit a cig­ arette. “Working toward a revolution In !his country," he remarked quietly. "Sure thing,” answered the Ameri­ can. “And when he brings it off, I guess you won’t catch Peterson for ■lust. He’ll pocket the boodle, and Uie boobs will stew in their own juice. I guessed it in Paris; that book makes a a certainty. But it ain’t criminal. In a court of law he could swear it was an organization for selling bird-seed.” For a while Drummond sm.oked In silence, while the two sleepers shifted uneasily In their chairs. It all seemed, so simple in spite of the immensity of the scheme. Like most normal English­ men, politics and labor disputes had left him cold in the past; but no one who ever glanced at a newspaper could be ignorant of the volcano that had been simmering just beneath the surface for years past. "Not one in a hundred”—the Ameri­ can's voice broke into his train of thought—“of the so-called revolution­ ary leaders in this country are disin­ terested, Captain. They’re out for Xumher One, and when they’ve talked the boys into bloody murder, and your existing social system is down-and-out, they'll be the leaders In the new one, Hat’s what they’re playing for— Power; and when they’ve got It, God Mp the men who gave it to ’em.” Drummond nodded, and lit another cigarette. Odd things he had read re- wtred to him: trade unions refusing Io allow discharged soldiers to join them; the reiterated threats of direct action. And to what end? A passage in a part of the ledger evi­ dently devoted to extracts from the speeches of the first-class general Iec-' twers caught his eye: To roe, the big fact of modern life Is “•■war between classes. . . . People Declare that the method of direct ac­ tion inside a country will produce a Revolution. I agree . . . It Involves He creation' of an army. . . .” Ana beside the cutting was a note “y Peterson in red ink: “An excellent man! Send for pro­ tected tour.” Ihe note of exclamation appealed to “u£h; he could see the writer’s tongue in his cheek as he put it in. It involves the creation of an army. ■ ’ Th® words of the intimidated it came back to his mind.

Their proper leaders, have sure failed them, so they’re running after that bunch of cross-eyed skaters. And sitting here, watching ’em run, and laughing At to beat the band, is your, pal Peterson I” It was at that moment that the tele­ phone bell rang, and after a slight hes­ itation Hugh picked up the receiver. “Very well,” he grunted, after listen­ ing for a while, “I will tell him.” He .replaced the receiver and .turned to the American. “Mr. Ditchling- will be here for the meeting at two, and Peterson will be !ate,” he announced slowly. “What's Dltchllng when he’s at home?” asked the other. “One of the so-called leaders,” an­ swered Hugh briefly, turning over the pages of the ledger. ‘Here’s his dos­ sier, according to Peterson. 'Diichl ing, Charles. Good speaker; clever; un­ scrupulous. Requires big money; worth It. Drinks.’” For a while they stared at the brief summary, and then the American burst Into a guffaw of laughter. “The mistake you’ve made. Captain, in this country, is not giving Peterson a seat In your cabinet. He’d have the whole caboose eating out of his hand; and if you paid him a few hundred thousand a year, he might run .straight and grow pigs as a hobby. . . TWO. It was a couple of hours later that Hugh rang up his rooms in Half Moon street. From Algy1 who spoke to him,' he gathered that Phyllis and her fa­ ther were quite safe. He also found out another thing—that Ted Jeming- ham had just arrived with the hapless Potts In tow, who was apparently suf­ ficiently r/seovered to talk sense. He was weak still and dazed, but no long­ er imbecile. “Tell Ted to bring him down to The Blms at once,” ordered Hugh. “There’s a compatriot of his here, waiting to welcome him with open arms.” “Potts is coming, Mr. Green,” he said, putting down the receiver. “Our Hlram C. And he’s talking sense. It seems to me that we may get a little light thrown ,on the activities of Mr. Hocking and H err Steinemann, and the other bloke.” The American nodded slowly. “Von Gratz,” he said. “I remember his name flow. Steel man. Maybe you’re right, Captain, and that he knows something; anyway, I guess Hiram C. Potts and I stick closer than brothers till I restore him to the bosom of his family.” But Mr. Potts, when he did arrive, exhibited no great .Inclination to stick close to ’ the detective; In- fact, he showed the greatest reluctance to en- n m The Millionaire Stared In Sllenee at the Detective. * ter’ the house at all. As Algy had said, he was still weak and dazed, and the sight of the place where he had suffered so much produced such an ef­ fect on him that for a while Hugh feared he was going to have a relapse. At length, however, he seamed to get back his confidence, and was persuad­ ed to come into the central room. uIfs all right, Mr. Potts,” Drummond assured him over and over again. “Their gang Is-dispersed, and: Laklng­ ton is dead. We’re all friends here now. You’re quite safe. OMs is Mr. Green, who has come over from New York especially to And you and take you back to -yonr family.” - The millionaire stared In silence.a? the detective, who rolled his cigar round In his mouth. - . ^ “That’s right, Mr. Potts. Tfieres the little old sign.” He threw back ^hls coat showing the police badjce. aiid the millionaire nodded. “I guess you’ve had things humming on the other side, and If it hadn’t been for the Captain here and his friends, they’d be hum­ ming still.” “ “I’m obliged to you, sir,” said the American, speaking for the first time to Hugh. The words were slow and hesitating, as if he was not quite sure of his, voice. “I seem to remember your face,” he continued, “as part of the aWful nightmare I've suffered the last few days—or is it weeks? I seem to remember having seen you, and you were always kind.” “That’s all over now,' Mr. Potts,” said Hugh gently. -“You got Into the clutches o^the most infernal .gang of swine, and We’ve been trying to get you out again.” He looked at him quietly. “Do you think you can re­ member enough to tell us what hap­ pened at the beginning? Take your time,” he urged. “There’s no hurry.” The millionaire passed his hand daz­ edly over his forehead. • “I was stopping at the. Carlton,” he began, .“with Granger, my secretary. I. sent him over to Belfast on a ship­ ping, deal and—” He paused and looked round the group. “Where Is Granger?” he. asked. “Mr. Granger was murdered In Bel­ fast, Mr. Potts,” said Drnmmond quiet­ ly, “by a member of the gang that' kidnaped you.” - “Murdered! jimmy Granger mur­ dered!” He almost cried In his weak­ ness. “What did the swine want to. murder him for?” tiBecause they wanted you alone,” explained Hugh. “Private secretaries ask awkward questions.” After a while the millionaire recov­ ered his composure, and with many breaks and pauses the slow, disjointed story continued: “Laklngton! That was the name of the man I met at the Carlton. Aiid then there was another . . . Peter . . . Peterson. That’s i t We all dined together, I remember, and it was after dinner, In- my private sitting room, that Peterson put up his propo­ sition to me. . . . It was a . sugges­ tion that he thought would appeal to me as a business man. He said—-what was it?—that he could' produce a gi­ gantic syndicalist strike in England— revolution, In fact; and that as one of the biggest shipowners—the \ biggest, in fact—outside this country, I should be able to capture a lot of the British canning trade. He wanted two hun­ dred and fifty thousand pounds to do It, paid one month after the result was obtained. . . . Said there were others In it . . .” “On that valuation,” interrupted the detective, thoughtfully, “it makes one million pounds sterling,” and Drum­ mond nodded. “Yes, Mr. Potts; and then?” “I told him,” said the millionaire, “that he was an infernal scoundrel, and that I’d have nothing whatever to do with such a villainous scheme. And then—almost the last thing I can re­ member—I saw Peterson look at Lak- ington. Then they both sprang on me, and .I felt. something prick my; arm. And after that I can’t remember any­ thing clearly. Your face, sir”—he turned to Drummond—“comes to me out of a kind of dream; and yours, too,” he added to Darrell. “But it was like a long, dreadful nightmare, In which vague things, over which I had no power, kept happening, until I woke up last night In this gentleman’s hguse.” He bowed to Tied Jemlngham, who grinned cheerfully. “And mighty glad I was to hear you talking sense again, ,sir,” he remarked. “Do you mean to say you have no rec­ ollection of how you got there?” “None, sir'; hone,” answered the mil­ lionaire.- “It was just part of the dream.” “It shows the strength of the drag those swice used on you,”, said Drum­ mond grimly. “You went there In an airplane, Mr. Potts." “An airplane!" cried the other in amazement. “I don’t remember i t I’ve got no recollection of it whatever. There’s only one other thing that I can lay hold of, and that’s all diin and muzzy. . . . Pearls. . . . A great rope of pearls. . . . I was to sign a paper; and I wouldn’t . . . I did once, and then there was a shot and the light went out, and the paper disappeared. »» “It's at my bank at this moment, Mr. Potts,” said Hugh;' “I took that papa, or part of it, that night” “Did you?” The millionaire looked at him vaguely. “I was to promise them a million dollars when.'they had done what they said. . . . I remember that. . . . .And the ^earl necklace. .. . . the duchess of '. . .” He. paused UndiShookhlSheadiWiearllyr “ The duchess 'of Hampshire's?" prompted Hugh; ■ j “That’s it ” said the other. < ‘“The duchess of Lampshlre’s.. It was say­ ing that I wanted her pearls, I th Inlrl and would ask' no questions as to. how they , were got” . 'i ... ■. t The detective grunted. ■ : “Wanted to incriminate you propeis ly, did they? Though it seems to me that it was a blamed risky game. There should have been enough, money, from the other three to run the show without worrying you, when they found you weren’t for It” “Wait,” said the millionaire, “that reminds me. ■ Before they assaulted me at the. Carlton-they told me the others wouldn’t 4 >me In unless I did.” For a while there was silence, broken at length by’Hugh. “Well, Mr. Potts, you’ve had a moldy time, and I’m very glad It’s over. - But the person you’ve got to thanir for putting us fellows on yonr track Is a girl, if it hadn't been for her .I’m afraid you’d still be having night­ mares.” “I would like to see her and thank her,” said the millionaire quickly. "You shall,” grinned Hugh. “Come to the wedding; It will' be In a fort­ night or thereabouts” “Wedding I" Mr. Potts looked a lit­ tle vague. “Yes! Mine and hers. Ghastly proposition, isn’t it?” “The last straw,” remarked Ted Jer- nlngham. “A. more impossible man. as a bridegroom would be hard to think of. But In the meantime I pinched half a dozen of the old man’s Perrier Jouef 1911 and put ’em in the car. What say you?” “Say!” snorted Hugh. “Idiot boy I Does one speak on such occasions?” And It was so. . . ..- THREE. “What's troubling me,” remarked Hugh later, "Is what to do with Carl and that sweet girl Irma.” The hour for the meeting was draw­ ing near, and though no one had any idea as to wtiat sort of a meeting It was going to be, it was obvious that Peterson would be one. of the happy throng. . “I should say the police might now be allowed a look in,” murmured Dar­ rell mildly. “You can't have the man lying about the place after you're mar­ ried." - “I suppose not” answered' Drum­ mond, regretfully. “And yet It’s a dreadful thing to finish a little show like this with the police—if you’ll for­ give my saying so, Mr. Green.” “Sure thing," drawled the American. “But we have our uses, Captain, and I’m inclined to agree with your friend's suggestion. Hand him over along with his book, ■ and they’ll sweep up the “It would be an outrage to let the scoundrel go,” said the millionaire fiercely. “The man Laklngton you say is dead; there's enough evidence to hang this brute as well: What about my secretary In Belfast?” But Drammond shook his head. “I have my doubts, Mr. Potts, If you'd be able to bring that home to him. Still, I can quite understated -your feeling rattled with the bird.” He rose and stretched himself; then he glanced at his watch. “It’s time you all retired, boys; the party ought to be starting soon. Drift In again with the lnds, the instant I ring the bell.” Left alone Hugh made certain once again that he knew the right combina­ tion of studs on the wall Jo open the big door wjilch concealed th.e stolen store of treasure—and other things as well; then, lighting a cigarette, he sat down and waited. The end of the chase was In sight and he had determined it should: be a fitting end, worthy of the chase Itself— theatrical, perhaps, but at the same time impressive. Something for the DitchIings of the party to ponder on In the silent watches of the night . . . Then the police*-it would have to be- the police, ,he admitted sorrowfully— and after that, Phyllis. And he was just on the point of ring­ ing up his flat to tell her that he loved her, when the door opened and a man came In. Hugh recognized him at once as Vallance Nestor, an author of great brilliance—in his own eyes—who had lately devoted himself to the advance­ ment of revolutionary labor. “Good afternoon,” murmured Drum­ mond, affably. ' “Mr. Peterson will be a little late. I am his private secretary.” The other nodded and sat down lan­ guidly. ‘ “What did you think of my last little effort In the Midlands?” he asked, drawing off his gloves. . - “Quite wonderful,” said Hugh. • ’“A marvelous help to the great cause.” Vallancei Nestor yawned slightly and closed his eyes, only to open them again as Hugh turned the pages of the ledger on the table. “What’s that?” he demanded. “This is the book,” replied Drum­ mond carelessly, “where Mt. Peteraon records his opinions of the Immense value of all his fellow-workers. Most interesting reading.” '“Am I in It?” VaUance Nestor arose with alacrity. “Why, ofl course,” answered Drum- mond.; .“Are/you not one of the-lead­ ers? Here you are.” He pointed with his finger,: and then drew back in dis­ may. “Dear, dear! There must be some mistake.” : -But Vallance Nestor, with, a frozen and glassy eye, was-staring fascinated at the following choice description of himself: ^ “Nestor, -Vallance. Author—so-called. Hot-air factory, but useful up to a point Inordinateiy conceited and a. monumental ass. Not fit to be trusted far." ■ "What,” be spluttered At length,, “is the meaning of this abominable in­ sult?” But Hugh, his shoulders shaking slightly, was welcoming the next ar­ rival—a rugged,- beetle-browed man, whose face seemed vaguely TVm 11 Iart but whose name he was unable to place. “Crofter,’.’ shouted the infuriated au­ thor, “look at this as a .description of Die r* And Hugh watched the man, whom he now knew to be one of the extrem­ ist m em ber of parliament, walk over and glance at the book.. He saw him conceal a smile,, and then Valance Nes­ tor carried the good work on. “We’ll see what tie says about you— Impertinent blackguard.” Hugh.glanced over Crofter’s sh'oul- der at the dossier. He just hjid time to read: “Crofter, John.' A 'consummate blackguard. Playing entirely for his own hand. Needs careful watching,” - when the subject of the remarks,' his face con­ vulsed with fury, spun round and faced him. “Who wrote that?” he snarled. “Must have been Mr. Peterson," an­ swered. Hugh placidly. “A wonderful judge of character," too,” he murmured, turning away to greet Mr. Ditchllng, who arrived somewhat opportunely, In company -with a thin, pale man—little more: than a youth—^whose Identity completely defeated Drummond. ’ “My God!" Crofter was livid with rage. “Me -and Peterson will have words this afternoon. Look at' this, A m Tnen, Lighting a Cigarette, He Sat Down and Waited. ,Ditchling.” On second thoughts he turned over some pages. “We’U see what this insolent devil has to say ' about you.” “Drinks!” Ditchling thumped the table with a heavy fist “What the h—I does he mean? Say, you, Hr. Secre­ tary—what’s the meaning of this?” , “They represent Mr. Peterson’s con­ sidered opinions of you all,” said Hugh genially. “Perhaps this other gentle­ man . . - He turned to the pale youth, who stepped forward with a surprised look. He seemed to be not quite clear what had upset the others, but already Nes­ tor had turned up his name. “Terrance, Victor. A wonderful speaker. Appears really to believe that what he says will benefit the workingman. . Consequently very valu­ able; but indubitably mad.” “Does he mean to insult us deliber­ ately?” demanded Crofter, his voice still shaking with passion. “But I don’t understand,” said Victor Terrance, dazedly.- “Does Mr. Peter­ son not believe, in our teachings, too?" He; turned slowly and looked at Hugh, who shrugged hid shoulders. “He should.be here at any moment,” he answered, and as he spoke the door opened and Carl Peterson came in. “Good afternoon, gentlemen,” he be­ gan, and then he saw Hugh. With a look of speechless - amazement he stared at the soldier, and for the first time since Hugh had known him his face blanched. Then his eyes fell on the open ledger, and with-a dreadful curse he sprang forward.

Program of Conference . Must be Available to AU. Washington. .— The United States Government means to deal fairly by all the powers invited- to the disarma­ ment conference ana therefore is frowning upon the suggestion ’ of a preliminary parley. Right at the start the American government has put its foot down hard on one of the things that brought such a deluge of criticism' on the Ver­ sailles conference, namely the prac­ tice of a few powers getting off to one side and framing a program which became a source of suspicion on the part of the other nations who were not in on the secret preliminaries. President Harding and Secretary Hughes are outlining .principles of procedure which are American rather than European. Having invited' all the great powers to a conference the American government would not feel that it was exactly fair to have a pre­ liminary ‘gathering of a few nations ahead of time. The United States is anxious to hold the conference at a time that is convenient to all, but nothing would be gained by-a hurried meeting early in the fall in which m atters would be hastily discussed. Whatever discussion there is on the agenda or program must be available to all powers. There will be no se­ cret understandings, alliances or en­ tentes within the conference.

UNITED STATES DETEnMINED The Demand for Release of American Prisoners is the First Official Representation of Subject. ^ Washington. — Formal demand for the release of American prisoners In Russia has been made upon the So­ viet authorities by Secretary Hughes. The state ' department was advised that the communication had been handed to the Soviet representative at Reval by Consul Albrecht. '■ The text of the communication has not been-made public. It is under­ stood, however, to be; a brief insis­ tence that the Americans be released before there can be any thought of. better relations between the United States and Russia. The action was taken in . the name of humanity and because all efforts to secure the re­ lease of the Americans, made through Dr. Nansen, of the Red Cross,-have failed.

This, the President told Congress, would open the way to “early adjust ment and relief” of the railroad prob­ lem. There was no thought of asking Congress for additional money. Rail­ way claims based on the “inefficiency of labor” during the war, the President said, were to be waived for the pres­ ent to hasten settlement without sur­ render of any rights in court. “It is merely the grant sOf authority necessary to enable a most useful and efficient government agency to use the available funds to purchase securities for which Congress already has au­ thorized the issue, and turn them into channels of finance ready to float them.” Chile Cabinet Has Resigned.

Girls are not as easily insulted as they used to be. Begin to borrow’ trouje and you will always be in debt. The happiest people are those who are'tnarried once, not once in awhile A man is always willing to reforn as soon as he is caught with the goods. A Salisbury pastor asks if the world is going crazy.

Farmer And Home Newspaper. Times-Indicator. Fremant1 Mich. The most important paper for, any farmer to take is the paper edited and published for and in his; com­ munity. 1 The publisher of the country paper ranks in influence and power, to do good with the pastor or priest, the school teachers, the county agent and the banker, He is the connecting link between the town and country folks. In his position as purveyor of the news of the community he oc­ cupies a'strategic position where he can do agreatdeal in'breaking'down prejudice, discord and misunder­ standing.' A failure to appreciate the place throws the whole commu­ nity into the rut. ' By all means the best acquaintan­ ces of the publisher,: are the farmers of the neighcorhood. Btifig the most numerous, and most important class in the county, they hold .out a field with news of vital interest to the entire community. Farmers are beginning ,to adver- (ise, for at times, for at some period of the year, every faimerhas some­ thing to sell. These products may not warrent a large display advertise­ ment, but a classfied or small display suffice. The best place fpr the farmers to advertise is in the home paper. . The costs will be smaller and the returs larger than from any other form of advertising. Where there is no local market for his stock or produce, only then should the farmer need to- go outside his community to find a prof­ itable adverting medium. ..

Rebeeca at Church. A certain young and devout church woman of Washing, N. C. , whose given name is Rebacca, never missed divine services, but often is late. The other Sunday she arrived just as the pastor was reading from the scriptures the story of F.ebeca at the well, is told in Genesis, 24th chapter. As the late comer tripped up the aisle, the minister, read: ‘ ‘And beholdR'ebeca came forth. ’ ’ Bsoad smiles played over the face of the worshippers. .Blushes'flood- ed the fair face' of Rebaca. Cour­ ageously she went on,, quickening her stepts. “And she made haste,” continu­ ed the clergyman, reading quite oblivious to the situation. Snickers from ihe youngsters broad’iug smiles frcm the grown-ups and ban-suppressed' giggles from the half-growns were the response. By that time Miss Rebeca . had reached her pew. She stumbled in and sank down as if she hoped the cushions would swallow her. “Let the damsel abide with us,” concluded the minister, closing his book and ending the reading much to the relief of Rebeca. No Wonder He Moved. ■ The following notice was found posted on a deserted homestead, says an exchange in the arid re­ gions of Kansas; “Four miles from a postoffice, r twent-five miles frOhf a railroad, fourteen miles from a school house, forty-one niiles to a church, 1 So miles to timber, 600 miles to a Democrat, half mile to Hell and the same to a Republican.

Of course the world needs re­ formings always has and always will—but do you believe after think­ ing carefully over your life, that you are the one to do it? Democratic National Chairman White has ordered the Democratic papers and politicians to begin knocking the national administra­ tion, and as the only task at which Democratic leadership has been a success in'this country in the last sixty years is knocking the anvil chorus it ought to be able to strike up a rather noisy tune.—Piedmont Press. ■ „ . TheHeritage. The Democrats evidently think that the Republicans will keep silent in the face df their criticism because the country is not getting back to normal immediately.. But there will be no silent acceptance of their unjust insinuations. Eight years of Democratic misrule got this country into heedless debt, scrambled the railroads, encouraged slacking and delayed negotations of peace. At every turn in the effort to get back to normal, the Republi­ cans find thejpselves., confronting difficulties of Democratic creation. The people of the country ought to -have these facts impressed upon their minds. Republicans will be and ought to be held responsible for what they do or left' undone during, the periad of their rule but allowence ought to be made aiid will be made for the handicaps ,Un­ der which they are loboring. , A True Philosopher. The county agent of Le Flore County, Okla, tells in his report a- bout one farmer in his county who has found out a way to stop'worry­ ing. They had tremendious rains down in that section of the country and .there was too much mud for plowing. The agent met this man and said “I don’t understand why you are looking so much ^happier than you did the last time I saw you; what’s the matter?’ ’ He repli­ ed: “Nothing is the matter. I gave up worrying because I got nothing left to worry over;—crops, all gone, money all gone, credit all gone, food’s about'played out, con’t, get work, got nothing, so I’ve got noth­ ing to worry about and have stop­ ped worrying..!’ ■ ■ Corroborated. The Senate, simply corroborated the finding of the people when it decided agains£ Secretary Daniels and up held’ the contentions of Ad miral Sims respecting the conduct of the Navy /during the war. But it is satisfying to the public to know that proof was not wanting Ithat the ballots of November last, which voted Daniel and his own crowd out of office, were worthily cast. Things most talked about: The length of women’s-skirts,i.-the ToW price' of cotton • and. the various forms of taxation. TextHe Department, North Carolina State College, Raleigb, N. C. This department which is the North Carolina Textile School lias made a good record during the past year. More students have been re­ gistered for textile sehoole in the South.. The equipment is the best that- can be obtained' and covers all branches of Cotton Manufacturing from cotton in the bale to the finish­ ed product. This include not only the designing of fancy Shirt waist: ings, dress goods table covers, 'tow­ els, etc., but bleaching and dyeing yarn for these fabrics. That the equipment of this school is UP to date and the instruction is of re ognized standard is evidenced by. the fact that the Students Med­ al was again awarded the school by the-National Association of Cot­ ton.. Manufactures. Two of the requirements to obtain- this medal are -that there must be a good equip- and the instruction must be of re­ cognized standard. The Nationl Association of Cot­ ton Manufacturers is the largest association of its kind in . America and embraces among its members cotton manufacturers from all over Afeerica.

The body-was laid to rest beside that of her husband on Sunday morning in Liberty church yard. Mr. and Mrs. Bailey Sliest and children, of Portsmouth, Va., who have been visiting relatives and friends here for two weeks, have returned home, , . The Ten Reasons; Mr Editor:—I would like to say a few words In your valuable paper, if you will allow one of the “green and ignorant” a little space. Theschool election has come and gone and I am glad it went the way it did. But I want to speak of Miss Bertha Lee’s ten reasons. She is more concerned about boys than bacon, but the boys have to have bacon or some substi tute, that has to come off of the farm I love culture and value good citizens too. but still we have to have cab bage or food of some kind and a little money for necessary clothing or children could not attend school. Intelligence is preferable to ignor­ ance every timeVbut common sense comes .before book learning. Liber­ ty ii a great thing, but where is our libarty? Manhood means more, than money, that is true, but wnat makes true manhood? Is it education? Iam afraid not. I think I have seen as much real man) ood among those who had a common education as I ever saw among the educated. \I don’t think you will have to go over forty miles from Mocksville to find some specimens of either kind. “Property involves more than money.” That may be so, but the taxes involves the money and some times the property too; Righteousness is preferable to rich es. but I think you will find as much righteousness among the common people as you will among the edu­ cated Souls are superior to every­ thing but education don’t make the soul. Truth ought to outweigh evety thing but some people are trying' to c ush it and to crush us -with taxes Wisdom is finer than anything yet seme people do not know everything but only see one side of. the picture. I believe I speak the sentiments of all poor farmers’ wives; we want to do the the very best we can by our children, but we do not want to work them to death to pay (axes to edu­ cate some man’s child that does not have to work. I am not opposed to education. I believe it is.every per­ son’s duty to give his or her child all the education possible, -and every child’s duty to get all the education it can But the point I want to make is this: Miss Lee has more education than I have, in fact I am one of those whom the preacher calls green and ignorant. But Cod did give' me a little common sense. While Miss Lee means well and really thinks as she writes she cannot see our.side of the question. She was born In plen ty, reared in luxury compared tp the way we poor farmers live. She nev­ er had to go out on the farm and dig for a living, like the farmer’s child, nor has she had a large family of children to cook, wash, iron and sew. for. and then perhaps hhve to help^urnish the clothing If Miss Lee had to tiurse and care for a baby, cook, milk and work, then sit up and sew till ten or eleven o’clock to keep her children half way decent for school, she would at once see why we vote against the consolidated school. Thereisno one man on a small farm that can do all the work on the farm, support a family of from three to ten children, feed them clothe them buy them books and station ery, pay his taxes and keep his child­ ren in school eight' months in the year. Thereis not a woman that can wash, iron and cook for the family, keep her children neat for school and her home tidy and packTuiiches for eight months in the year and not break down, Why should we pay taxes to keep the school for the children that do not have to work?,. It is impossible for the farmers .to dress their child­ ren like, the- town children dress. The town children will- therefore make fun of The country. children. Where is the mother that will stand for her child to be made sport of? The proper thingTor MpckoviHe Io do is to build, her own schoolhbuse and ,run her own''school. If-any one else wants to send to schooilet them pavforit. What we want is to have our free schools like we’ve, been having them only give us a; two teacher school and add two nJore g r a d h ^ lt good teachers and pay them I reasonable salary. When a girl or hoy gets that much of a start, if there, is anything in Ibem they -iWill make good. If there is not too much time will have' already been wasted. - ' Nop everyone can have a position.

I am profoundly ignorant,” answered Peterson. “Perhaps Captain Drum­ mond can enlighten us on that also?” “Yes,” remarked Drummond, “I can. Henry has had' an accident.

I shall have Such a lot to tell them.about the little-1 entertainments here, and all your endearing ways.” ’ With the big ledger under'hls arin he crossed the room and caUed to some men who were standing’ ontslde In the. hall; and as the' detectives,' thoughtfully supplied by Mr. Green, entered the central room, he glanced for the last time at Carl Peterson and his daughter. Never had the cigar glowed more evenly between the mas- ter-criminal’s lips; never bad the girl Irma selected a' cigarette from her gold and tortolse-bheil case "with more supreme indifference. : “Good-by, my ugly, one I", she cried, with a charming smile,. as two of the men stepped up to her. “Good-by,” Hugh bowed,' and a tinge of regret showed for a moment In his -eyes. “Not good-by, lima.” Carl Peterson removed his cigar, and stared at Drummond steadily. “Only an revoir, my friend; ionly au revoir.” ‘I simply can’t' believe^ it,- Hugh." In the lengthening shadows Phyllis moved -a little nearer to her husband, who, quite regardless of the publicity of their position, slipped a n ' arm around her waist. ' “Can’t believe Whati darling?” he demanded lazily. “Why, that all that awful night mare Is over. Lakington- dead, and the other two' In prison, and us mar-' rled." “They're not actually in jug yet, old thing,” said - Hugh. eAnd-somehow .■ . he broke off and stared thought­ fully at a man sauntering past them. To. all appearances he was a casual jPisitor taking his evening walk along the front of the well-known seaside resort so largely addicted to honey­ moon couples. And yet . . ■ . was he? Hugh laughed softly; he’d 'got suspicion on -the brain.- . “Don’t you think they'll be sent to prison?” cried the girl. “They may be-sent right enough, but whether they arrive or not is ■ a different matter.. I don’t somehow see Carl picking !.oakum; H&s not his form.” - For .,UjWhile they were silent, occu­ pied with matters quite foreign to such trifles as Peterson and his daugh­ ter, ' “Are you glad I answered your ad­ vertisement?” inquired ■ Phyllis at length. “The question is too frivolous to deserve an answer,” remarked her hus­ band severely. . ! “But you aren’t sorry it’s over?” she demanded. ; ITt isn’t over, kid; it’s just begun.” He smiled at her- tenderly. “Your life and mine; !. :. . ■ isn’t it just wonder­ ful?’’, And once again the man sauntered past them.-. But this time he dropped a piece of paper oh the. path, just at Hugh’s feet, and the. Soldier, with' a quick movement which' be hardly stopped to analyze, covered It with his shoe. The girl hadn’t seen the action ; but then, as girls will do after such remarks, she was thinking of-other' things. Idly Hugh watched the saun- terer disappear in the more crowded part of the esplanade,- and for a mo­ ment there came onto his face a look which, happily for his , wife’s peace of mind, she failed to ttotice. "' ■* “Let’s, go and eat, and after dinner I’ll run you-up to the top Of the head­ land. . . “ - ■ Together they Strolled back to their hotel.

Foulard, for once unassisted by other materials, justifies its' faith in itself In the frock at the. left. Designers appar7 ently make a plain, straight skirt.

The bodice . has a square neck and three- quarter length sleeves whose cuffs are edged with plaited frill o f the silk; Even the sash is made of the foulard and is draped; with a loop at the left side, and loop with IOng end at the right . The jblack taffeta at the right, for Immediate wear, has a . plain bodice with a wide collar edged by a ruffle of naraow white ribbon. The tunic on this frock, as- on the- other- one, is open at the front It is elaborated with embroidery in white silk and bordered by a flounce edged with the ribbon. Colors, ,as blue or green, might be substituted ior white In the decora-: tion. As usual, In these froCks,- there is a chemisette of lace and the sleeves, are three-quarter length, and familiar these details are,, they maintain their their unusual charm.

There are thousands of things we can eliminate during hot weather If we^ just think about them, and the following ere some which may be modified to suit each house; hold, or may sag-, g e st' other ways to save work dur­ ing' the extremely hot weather: To begin right the family- should dress as cool as possible. White is the most popular of all goods,,aq. it comes in thin weaves, washes so well and. if made simply, is not a Iaupdry prob­ lem. Green- and blue are also cool- looking. Every" housewife should provide herself with at,-least one cool dress for sweltering days.' With plain skirt and waist, or a-one-piece affair with a simple fichu draped over the plainness, one will be In style year after year. - A cool, fresh-looking housemother'will refresh the. entire family on a-hot, smothering'day. The daily bath ,being a necessity, and some days semi-daily, the Turkish towel is a great bonven'ience. Let each one take care of his own towels. After giving them a . hot rub in ■ the water, bang on the line and turn the hose-on tbem;-the sun arid air will purify and dry them arid the weekly wash will keep them, in good condition. A polished table'w ith doilies, run­ ners or the decorated oll-cloth.; covers .will .save oceans of laundry work. Small, lunch napkins, or even-the pa­ per.kind, will'save much Work. . iWith 'a fireless cooker a tea-wagon, a' Screened porch one may; eliminate much of the everyday seemingly nec­ essary-steps... ’ . ■ Furniture, when‘,repainted, If uorie.

Simple Interest.- - Bex Beach, who has forsaken the profession of novelist for the more lucrative one' of scenario writer, said at a Hollywood tea: “It Is a common enough thing for a good man to dash off a scenario In a. week or so and get $10,000 for it, but scenario writing, nevertheless, isn’t all beer and skittles.” Mr. Beach chuckled. “There’s an English poet In our midst,” he said, “who recently decid­ ed to make his debut In the film world. The other day as I was lunching with him the beli rang and the servant brought In a bulky envelope. . “The English pbet examined the typescript' in the envelope. • Then he ground his teeth. “ ‘This is what I’ call rubbing it In,’ 'he snarled.. ‘I sent the Star Film-cor­ poration forir scenarios, last week, and blamed if they haven’t returned me nine,' ” If You M a ” ” * You Should Hive the Best _ Have you ever stopped to reason why it is that , so many products that are ex­ tensively advertised, all at once drop out of Bight and' are soon forgotten? The reason is plain—the article did not fulfill the'promises of the manufacturer. This applies more particfflarly to a medicine. A medicinal preparation that has real curative value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been benefited; to those who are in heed of it.A prominent druggist says ‘Take for exainple Dr. XilmePs Swamp-Boot, a preparation I" have sold for. many years and never hejsltate to recommend, for in almost every 'case it shows excellent re­ sults, as many of. my customers testify. No other Idjlney remedy has so large. a sale." According I to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, the Bnccess of Dr. EilmePs Swamp-Boot is due to the fact, so many people claim, that it fulfills al­ most every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri­ nary troubles and neutralizes the uric add which causes rheumatism.You may recdve a sample bottle of Swamp-Root by Parcels Post..

A big box easts but a trifle >wittr your druggist's Correspondent Tells of Taking the Girls Out for Purposes of Bird Study and Some of the Things They Saw. , By EDWARD B. CLARK. -Washington.—In the course of one of their week-end outings on the navy yacht Mayflower, the President and Mrs. Harding showed an active inter­ est In the girl scout movement of America by a visit to one of the girls summer camps on the headwaters of Chesapeake bay at the mouth of the Gunpowder river. Mrs. Harding is an official, or at any rate an honorary offi­ cial of the girl scouts. Her interest In the work is keen and therefore, as is usually the case In American domes­ tic life, the husband's interest is also keen. - On a Maryland peninsula, one side of which is washed by the Gunpowder river, the government maintains its great chemical warfare service plant. The place is known as Bdgewood ar­ senal. The work is under the direc­ tion of Brig. Gen. Amos Fries, chief of the chemical warfare service, whose headquarters are in Washington; while the First Gas regiment, stationed at Edgewood1 is under the command of Maj. E. J. Atkisson, who was the col­ onel of the First Gas regiment in France when his present chief was head of the entire gas service In the A. B. F. Associated In war, the senior and subordinate are still associated in peace. General Fries turned over to the girls scouts a fine camping site be­ tween the woods and the beach on the elevation of the peninsula close to the mouth of the Gunpowder river. Mrs. Fries is closely associated with the work of the girl scouts, and one of her daughters is a member of the present camping party. Showing Them the Birds. Washington has many girl scouts. The belief here is, as it seems to. be. elswhere, that the movement is a help­ ful one in every respect for the'girls of America. It does one good once In. awhile to get away from the heat of political and legislative discussion Im Washington to replace the oratory,. or» near oratory of congress' with- the ■ songs of such birds as are-still-sing; ing, and with the music of the forest’s wind instruments. To get right into the middle of things, I was asked to go to tlie camp of the Washington, girl scouts to lead a class of them into the fields and woods for the. purpose of bird study. I never had been near a girl scouts’ camp before. . I have seen one now at close range, and I know the interest the children take in woodcraft and. in nature'and the helpfulness: which is inculcated, and I know the thing-is good. I took about a dozen of the. girls on a tramp along the edges of the woods and • along the country roads, bordered by the tangled thickets which buttressed the fences. Somebody must have been doing good nature work, either in the homes or the schools, for I found a basic knowledge of bird life already in the minds of these girl, scouts. It never has hurt any -child to. be led into the field of appreciation of the appeal of nature.’ Tn the- course, of a tramp of an hour and a half we saw twenty-five species of American birds, some of them of appealing and curious interest.- The birds that we saw, and confes­ sion must be made that I did not es­ prit to find them in Maryland at this season of the year, were two white­ breasted nuthatches performing their gymnastic* feats .upon the trunk and. larger branches of an oak.. This bird was new to some of the girl scouts. They saw it go down.the trunk of the tree head first ; they saw it while In this dizzy position raise its head to; look at them inquisitively ■ with' its sharp black eyes. . .No acrobat of-the Circus can do what this bird finds It easy to do. Use Snake Skins in Nests. One. of the scouts, had- a cast-off snake skin which she had picked up. This gave an opportunity to'say It was strange that the skin had been over­ looked by- the great crested- flycatch­ ers which are-not uncommon in Mary­ land and which ordinarily will not build a nest untll.they can find a cast­ off ,snake skfn to use as a part of the heist building material. . When this fly­ catcher falls to find a- , snake skin it must content'itself with-some'kind''of substitute, but it searches' for-some­ thing that looks like a snake skin-be­ fore It is happy. Why does the: bird put a snake, skin In Its nest? If any scientist can answer he will , go to the head of the class without challenge.! The scouts were particularly Inter- ‘ ested, in-the nests of the' barn swal­ lows.- Why? Because the homes of these blue-backed, fork-tailed, sky- darting birds are wonderful contriv­ ances of mud, lSO ftIJ..lined wlth feath- ers. and grasses, and ',plastered with the master adroitness of . the > mason .on to the rafters of the barn. ' One of the girls discovered atnest which was as big as . a quart cup. Seemingly It must have been a case of super impoto ing nest on nest as' the' summers came SOUTHERN RAILWAY SYSTEM Announces Greatly Reduced Round-Trip Excursion Fares to ATLANTIC CITY, N.

Mr. Editor:—The litter has ,not been cleared up from i July 19'th, b ittle of ballots before the annouce- ment of another for September 6th. ' 'Jones’ ’ the people pay the freight: Holv any man or set of men can think the present a good time to at teinpt to float a $45,000.00 dollar bond issue, is beyond my reason- iug. capacity. ,The state,; other counties and towns are failing to get decent bids for bonds, and how- we can expect to do better than that is the question. I am not op­ posed to enlargemenf-of our school building sufficiently' to accommo­ date the needs of the. children, and its mv opinion that this necessity could be tided over, until prices and. times had a' chance to reach normal, whefii we could go a- head and errect a building ade­ quate to our needs for much less money, than at this time, -when-so many of the factors entering - the cost have not reached normal prices. But the die is cast, we are on the banks of the Rubicon, be the results what they may. There is‘another matter I wish to call to the atten­ tion of our town authorities; to-wit: the size of the piping for sewers; nearly every one I have heard ex­ press themselves is of the opinion that a 6 inch pipe is too small, we are not building I hope, with aiiy other idea in view, and that later, when we-can afford it the "water and sewer system are to be extended,so that more if not all the people who pay taxes for same Will have the benefits resulting from their tax monies, without which they will be taxed for the benefits of a few without receiving any-direct good themselves, which in my opinion is wrong. Then why .not put in a larger sized pipe that will be ade­ quate for fu ure needs? I make the prediction that inside of six months after it is installed, we are going to have trouble and great ex­ pense with the 6 inch pipe, but I hope if it is used, I may be mis­ taken, I know I was right about the depot street out-let, it was a botch, and has cost the town not less thau one thousand dollars for the fine management behind it, we could have put in a concrete' cul- iert before the street was graded’ for one third of the present cost to do it now, nothing truer than, the old saying; “A stitch in time saves nine ’ but “Ephriam.is joined to his idols, let him alone.”. Another thing, I have been trying for months to exercise a legal right given under the laws of North Caro­ lina to every citizen and tax-payer ot the town to-wit: to have a look at the books and examine the town budget,-I have called on- legal cus­ todian repeatedly; and up to this good hour I have’1 failed to get a took at it. Now gentlemen, ,.I gm going to see that budget, of-'know the ieison why. We have been raised up in this couutry to believe that we are living in the “land of the free, in. the home of brave,” lot a citizen and. taxpayer' of the trememj us” town, of : Mocksvrille ls ^emed a legal and constitutional Privilege under our laws without ■ me or reason.

Small Vs Big Cityi Foryears it has been a favorite amuse.mement of the large city daili­ es to. refer to the local news con­ tain in the country press as “small town stuff ” It pleases the city dweller to read' it at his breakfast table. It emphasizes the superiority , of “metropolitan wisdom.” And we of the country press are content to let it go at that-with a passing word or two of comment.- ,The “small town stuff” which-fur- nishes so much ■ amusement to' our city friends may be homefurnishes in its phrasology—it may be unim­ portant as compored to the vital af­ fairs of the world—but it possesses the merit of being the truth. The average country publisher does not resort to misrepresentation arid sensationalism in the columns of his paper. Hls news articles and items are composed of facts as he finds them, and they are not doctor­ ed or colored for the purpose of pleading any class or faction, or for the building up of a huge subscrip­ tion list. When he takes a stand editorially^ on any public question, be it- local or national, he has in. view the wel­ fare of the people as a whole, and not the interest of some political fac­ tion or mechine. His columns may not contain- an overplus of news, but such as there is may be read with perfect safety, by the.growipg fchildren of the com­ munity without parental fears-of in­ stilling perfect safety by the grow­ ing chartional thougths and desires: in their budding minds.' v His paper may bejsmall, and provi-;. cal, but it is clean. -- S The reader is., never at a loss 40". know whether or not a statement made; by the editor is based on fact, or whether it is composed principally of what' is commonly, known as newspaper bunk.” The’publisher of any big city dailey who can legitiihately and thuthfully. says as much for his own paper is at liberty to aipuse himself at our ex- aense to his heart’s content. .

The. crowd was almost as large this year as last, and the day was ,enjoyed by the nine pr ten thousand men, women and children who mingled together from early morning until la:e afternoon. The annual address was delivered by Dr. Howard Rond- thaler, of Winston Salein, and was heard by thousands. The class of orphans from Oxford- entertained the vast audience with ‘ songs and recitations, while the Cooleemee band dispensed sweet.music to all. One of the biggest events of the day was the old-fashioned country dinner that was spread on the long, tables about one o’clock. Just a- bout the dinner hour a heavy show­ er fell, which settled the dust but did not dampen the arder of _the diners. After dinner many of the picnicers went to the ball park and saw a good game between Advance and Mocksville. The lawn party in the evening was well, attended and the exercises by the little folks was of a high order. The day. was a success in every particular. There was some whisky in evidence but no one was killed or crippled so far as we have been able to learn. The proceeds of the picnic amounted.to about $1,800. Home Coming at Fork. Home coming at Fork Sunday was largely attended. Owingto a death of one of Its oldest: members, Mr. Richard Foster, a good many were kept away.

J.- News Everybody has written about the trials and tribulations of the country editor but few have written about his joys. He stands ahead of the preacher the lawyer and the public speaker, because he never talks to empty benches, but speak in:all the homes where' his paper goes.- He never makes impromptu speeches which generally disgust the audience, but writes with deliberation and premed­ itation. The preacher's influence for good seldom reaches father than his congregation,'while the editor’s field for good reaches all the congre­ gations in the county. The lawyer makes a great speech in the count- house dnd only one or two. hundred persons hear him, but, when the ed­ itor writes a good editorial it is cop­ ied in various prpers in the state. The editor distributes- more flow­ ers than a florist and asks nothing in return for them but thatiks. The editor has an opportunity to do the invdidual citizen a service and he never hesitates to do it if. consistent with his obligation to the public. The editor has the greatest oppor- t initv Jto convert men and women to his way of thinking on. public questions, As the lighthouse on tl e shore'warns the Bhip from the rocks the editor can warn the public from frauds and fakers. The editor has the greatest opportunity to protect society from evil for the laws and creating public sentiment for it. The editor never tires of boosting his town and country, and if both do not grow it is not his fault. - He helps the deserving yqung men with words of commendation and restrains the old by words of warning. His field of usefulness is broader than any one else in the community,- and ifhedoes not get any returns for his efforts.,-for ■ settlement he has a suffient reward in seeing ,thing’ get better. He rejoicess in his op­ portunity fot service to his fellow man, his town and his country and goes on his way rejoicing, whether or not he gets any returns-for it. School Election Sept. 6th.

Hall of Paris, Mo., met facfr to face in a Denver (Colo.) street a man whom he thought he had killed 14 years ago and the memory of whose alleged death had haunted him' all these yeara A letter telling of the remarkable case came from Denver to I.

Ieittfer received by Mr. Shatzer 'was signed with a strange name, Harry E. Thomas. It contained this' story of the disappearance..of the new name: In Perpetual Torment. For 14; years Hall, under the name pf Harry E. Thomas of Denver; has quaked at the sight of a police officer.. He has avoided all persons he knew when he was Hall. He has spent w ake­ ful nights, fearing arrest for murder.. A wife and then a child served to add to his anxieties. What, if thdy should discover he had killed a man?' But the worry is ,over. - Thomas Was walking recently on' a Denver street. He met the man-for whose murder he- believed he was hunted, the letter states. The two recognized each, other, at the same time. ; The “murdered” man held out his hand Inr greeting. “I thought -I killed you,” Thomas, gasped / ' “Land, no,” the “victim" replied.“I was only :brulsed a little.” In the 14 years since his disappear­ ance-Hall's family has mourned him as. dead. Relatives. after a diligent search, took steps to collect .his insur­ ance, but lacking proof of death, were unable to do- so. ' . Of what happened after Hall, with 5175 in wages, left the. harvest -fields the letter has this to sajr: -- “I got into a dice game. '! won $7501 One of the heavy losers Was John Wil­ liamson. He and I fought over the game, then patched up our differences. Friendly, we climbed into a box car to go to Kansas C ity."

GUINEAS -FAVOR FREE RANGE Fowls Can Be Depended Upon to Pick Up Considerable Portion of - Their Food. (Prepared by ,the' United States D epart­m ent of Agriculture.) Most guinea raisers allow their breeding stock free Tange of the entire farm at all times, .and this helps to keep the birds strong and vigorous. During the winter the. breeders should have: been fed a grain mixture of com, wheat and oats twice a day, and where no green feed was available, vege­ tables,_ such as potatoes, turnips, beets tfnd cabbage. Animal feed is essen­ tial to best resiilts and can be supplied by feeding meat scrap or . skimmed milk. Given free range, where the sup­ ply of natural feed .during the win­ ter and early spring are ample, as it usually is in the southern portion of the United States, the guineas can be left to pick up a considerable part of their feed, say poulcry specialists Of the United States-Department of Agri­ culture. ' Free access to grit, charcoal, and oyster shell is necessary through­ out the breeding season. .Avoid hav­ ing the breeders too fat, but keep them in good, firm.flesh. Like quail and most other wild birds, guinea fowls in their wild state mate In pairs, and this ■ tendency ■ prevails among domesticated guineas, also, pro­ vided the males and females are equal in number. As the breeding season approaches, one pair after'another sep­ arates from the remainder of the flock and ranges off In the fields in search of a suitable nesting place. Once mated this way, the male usually re­ mains with his mate throughout the laying season, standing guard “some­ where near the megt while the hen is laying, and ready to warn her of any approaching danger. However, it is not necessary to mate them in pairs under domestic condi­ tions to secure fertile eggs, and most breeders keep but one male for every three or four females. When mated in this way the hens are more apt to lay near home, and several usually lay in the same nest; thus making it much easier to find the nests and gather the eggs. ’’ While guineas can be kept in the best breeding condition upon free r Guineas Can Be Confined if Necessary, But They Do Best WbendGiven Free Range. - range, still they dan be confined, if necessary, and satisfactory results ob­ tained. One extennive guinea raiser has Confined as Tnaijj* as 45 hens and 15 m&les in an acre pen throughout-the breeding and laying season and been successful. This pen is inclosed with a wire fence five feet high, and the .birds, are .,prevented, from flying oyer by, clipping the flight feathers of one wing. Within the pen is a grass pas, ture with bushes here and there where the hens, make their nests by scratch­ ing, out a bowl-shaped hollow In the ground. The winters being severe, a roosting shed is provided, having a cleated board reaching from the floor to the roosts for the wing-clipped birds to walk up. ’ GEESE GOOD GRAZING STOCK Fowls "Play Important Part in Util­ izing Waste Grain About Stables and Feeding Pens. Geese have an important part in the endless w ar'on waste. They are In a class with chickens In utilizing waste grain about stables and feeding pens. In a larger measure than chickens or any other kind of poultry they are a grazing stock, getting their living In large part from the ordinary grasses of the pastures, sa^ poultry special­ ists of the United States Department of Agriculture. When it is considered that the demand for geese is steady, and extended over almost the whole year, not confined to holidays, as In the case of ,turkeys,’that geese excel all other poultry as producers of fat, the importance of geese Ih the poultry scheme is realized.

REQUIREMERTS OF EJCH (SOP If Precise Records Are Not Available on Labor and Material Expendi­ tures Close Estimate Can.-Be Made of That Section. CPrepared by the United States D epart­ m ent of A griculture.) Figures from which the farmer , can compute for himself the cost of pro­ duction of corn, com for silage,* wheat, oats, and liay, under given conditions, are presented in a preliminary report on labor and material requirements of those crops, recently issued by the United States Department of Agricul­ ture. These figures cover the normal Iiours of man labor and, horse labor, and quantities of swil, fertilizers, etc., required per acre for each crop, as determined by surveys by the office of farm management and farm econom­ ics. Apply Basic Factors. The money cost is found by apply­ ing to these basic factors the current cates for labor, seed, etc. Inasmuch as St has been found that, in general, labor and material costs approximate SO per cent of the total operating cost for these crops, it is easy to find this total when the labor and material costs are known. Tlie figures given represent average crop requirements for the regions where investigations have been made. H the farmer does .not have precise records of labor and material expendi­ tures for his own farm, he can esti­ mate them pretty closely by taking the average for his own region as a basis and applying current rates for labor and materials, with due allowance for any unusual conditions that may exist In his own case. The method of com­ putation is as follows: 1. Determine the total cost of labor and material per acre by applying cur­ rent rates to the quantities of labor and materials obtained from the in­ dividual’s own records, or, if such are not available, use those given In the table. 2. Determine the total operating ex­ pense per acre by dividing the cost of tabor and material by the percentage figure given for each region. 3. Determine the total acre cost of production by adding the interest charge or the cash rent paid for the nse of land. "4. To determIne the cost per bushel or ton divide the total acre cost by the yield per. acre. The following example shows how this method worked, out In figuring the cost of com for silage on an Iowa.

NATIONS IN THE WASHINGTON CONFERENCE ARE CONCERNED OVER THliS CONDITION. MUST PLAN FOR LIFE SAVING Greatest' "Improvement” in Killing Devices Are in Alr and Gas Serv­ ices, So Limitation Won’t Be Con­ fined to Naval Armaments. By EDWARD B. CLARK. -. Washington.—While the immediate purpose of the five great powers in limitation .of armaments is to save mciney, the ultimate object is, of course, to save human lives. Every­ one of the powers tiiat will be repre­ sented ih the conference liere is con­ cerned over the rapid development of destructive weapons of wdr. It is doubtful, say the best of the army and navy experts, if the world could stand iinotlier general war at this time. . In the 28 months that''have gone by since the armistice was:«sigried, de^ velopments In the production of death- dealing Instruments of war have come with, startling rapidity. The inventive minds which the war set. to work did not cease activity with the signing of the armistice. From week to . week and month to month they have gone right on developing new instruments for killing men In case of'w ar. The greatest developments have, of course, been in the air and gas serv­ ices. In the meantime, however, all other Implements of war, whether used to the army or the navy, are being OTought. to a degree of efficiency never attained before. These devel­ opments must be taken into consider­ ation by the statesmen of the five great nations. There is, of course, a crying demand that money expendi­ tures in preparations for war be re­ duced, biit after all the big thing, as the leading statesmen of the day view the situation, is for the great powers to get tqgether on some plan for lim­ iting the use of the new agencies for killing people by the wholesale. . Problem Hard to Solve. Obviously this is not a problem that can be easily solved. No nation can- be expected to enter into any agree­ ment that will In any way endanger.-, its security. And yet in the war which ended a little more than 28 months ago, the airplane was not brought in-'- to general use as a bomber. 'General­ ly speaking, it was used, for observa­ tion purposes only. If ,another World war should break out tomorrow, the air- service and gas service, tlie ex­ perts say, would be the reliance of the countries at war, and yet, accords tag to these same experts, these two branches of the. service, are still In their infancy. : . > The experiments conducted off the Virginia- capes recently have revived Interest In the air service and made I* more certain that the future of this service will be discussed at the forth­ coming international conference on limitation ■ of armaments. Since the destruction of the former German dreadnought by., a ir. bombs,, there ; is .substantial agreement among the ex­ perts that it is a question whether ,the battleship can be so constructed ns to withstand the explosives which air­ planes would rain on it in time of war. , Some of the experts are emphatic In saying that it would be foolish for any one of the great powers to go ahead putting millions, into battle­ ships, and there Is general agreement that unless the powers can agree on limitations In the air service, every­ one of them will be obliged to turn its attention to the building of airplane bombers. 1 Gas, Too, Must Be Considered. When It first became known, that the United 1 States intended to Inyite the principal allied powers to attend the conference here on limitation of armaments, it was generally' assumed thnt the . conference would' devote most -of its time to a discussion of naval armaments. Now, . however, partly as a result of-the experiments OfE the Virginia capes, and partly due, to the fact that it is going to be. gen­ erally known ,that everyone of the powers is engaged In developing new poisonous r; gases, the general under­ standing Is that the conference will probably, devote much of its. time to the question of what limitations shall be placed on the use of these modern implements of Warfare. Ofiicers of. our army and navy say it. is inevitable that civilized nations, In case-of another'war, would: permit the unlimited use of. the destructive gases .that are now In process of de­ velopment. It Is well, known : that son!e,of. the powers have developed gases that could be usjed In fhe whole­ sale destruction of fleets- and vessels and of arms and men. When these new developments are taken into consideration It Is. got. strange-; ‘that Secretary of* State ■Hughes Is. Insistient tiiat the' confer­ ence-on * limitatibn “ of armaments'-shall not be confined to naval armaments.

' - The Record feels confident that the .bond election for schools is going to carry, by a big majority next month. Our school building is not large enough to take care of the children of the town, and we all realize that it would, be a dis­ grace to let our children grow, up in ignorance for lack of room. The Record opposed the bond .issue and c msolidation in the former election because it did not believe that the operation of trucks to get the child­ ren to school would be a success, but since the district has been nar­ rowed down, the trucks eliminated and the amount of the bond issue cut in half, The Recond is just as strong for this election as it was op- po-.ed to the former one. .Angus Cattle Sold Here.

Winston-Saleuidefeated 1 the: home team by a score of n to 3 : Why I Oppose A Bond Issue At This Time. Mr.. Editor-Wl herewith quote a recent, utterance on bond and other indebtedness by the president of the United States, it shows that he is alive to the peril confronting the people, not only of theU. S.,but of the world, and unless a halt is cal­ led we are headed to certain and overwhelming bankruptcy. The towns are going to feel the effect of the short crops, and it is not going to be long before they will admit it, for there is no truer say, ing. ‘ ‘The proof of the pudding, is chewing the bag. ’ ’ President Hard­ ing says; “There is. not a menace in the world today like that of grow­ ing indebtedness and mounting public expenditures.” This means growing taxes and continual bond issues, all of which adds to the bur­ dens now pressing down upon every class of our .people. I want to see Mocksville have a nice school build­ ing and other needed improvements, but right now is no time for us to increase our taxes. I do not think it is wise to continue to boost the town and cities, when so doing we are drawing the labor from the farms and making it harder for those ■ re­ maining on the farm to properly cultivate and increase their produc­ tion, upon which the very life and existence of the towns and cities depend. Mocksville will as, cer­ tainly grow and prosper when we help the country surrounding it grow and prosper , when the farmers fail in crops production, and are unable to. meet their bills-it is nat­ urally reflected in the towns and a- tnong the business people generally. What have, we in Mocksville to tax? Comparatively nothing but our homes, we have no manufacturing to amouut' mentioning, we would like to see some new enterprises come here) but if we continue to raise ouir tax rate and increase oiir bonded indebtedness we will cer­ tainly keep away the capital neces­ sary to build theui up. It will soon be impossible for a poor man to own his home here, and we cannot expect men who would like to build houses to rent-continue to invest in such houses-unless they can do so with the assurance that' thej7 can rent them at such a price that they can come out ahead on the invest­ ment, after deducating taxes and insurance and upkeep. Its a known fact that all these' extra expenses are considered when the monthly rent rate is made up. The labor­ ing men of our town who live in rented houses and many of them do; are certainly paying the taxes and insurance on the lots and build­ ings]' Why not rent the building" formerly used by Miss Mattie Eatour and Miss Ldura Clement to help out in this emergency, and wait a- while until the people are better able to meet the expense .of a new building? Even if the bonds and tax is voted, we cannot get the building ready , for .the coming school year.' What little money we may have in the town* treasury will soon be spent for, holding elec­ tions and other needless expenses. Rome was not built in a day, and while Mocksville has been on the'; map for more than a hundred years ^some of us will die and be forgotten' before it become a metropolis. A- nother matter my friends, if you will'read the notice, you . will see that the rate of tax is in the air, no specific amount is called for ,-and to my inind this is a dangerous and loaded proposition, if we -are.to judge the future by the past it leav­ es it absolutely with the town com­ missioners to fit the rate at their own s weet will and pleasure a little more of the.autocratic powers, lod­ ged in the few over the property of the many..'' Let’s trip this oligar­ chic power in the bud and sene notice on the powers that be, that !‘all just government derives its powers from the: consent' of the governed.” No better time to hoist the.flag, and forward march on the entrenched power of the Autocrats., Our' ancestors.'intended that this' should be a free country, governed by the people, but .unless we again light the torch of-liberty, and over­ throw these- selfish interests that step by step are-stealing and taking: away the rights ,.of the people in having, a voice'in their government; we-will Wake up \to - find the: dast vestige of liberty gone.

Sometimes grain comes to the elevator : in poor: condition, often being dirty, dusty, or with high moisture content, and unless the qual- Unwrapped Melons Coci Quickly, Thus Preventing Mold. handling and for some delay In transit. As a general rule, therefore, canta­ loupes should be picked just before they reach the full-slip stage. Such melons possess not only the desirable eating quality, but also the necessary carrying quality. The keeping and carrying qualities of cantaloupes are directly dependent on tffie care exercised to prevent me­ chanical. injuries in harvesting and preparation for shipment • Use Care in Packing. During the operation of packing, melons -should be placed carefully in the crates, and not dropped or tossed Into- place, as is frequently done. In­ jury caused by squeezing can be pre­ vented: if packers are careful n o tto force in over-sized melons when fin­ ishing the crates.- The reduction of serious market losses from over-ripe and decayed mel­ ons is dependent to a large extent upon.the promptness with which they are placed-under refrigeration. They should be loaded immediately in iced refrigerator cars, and, while being hauled from packing shed to the care IoadiUg platform, should be covered to protect them from the sun. Cantaloupes should preferably not be wrapped. They do not refrigerate so well in transit nor do they reach the consumer in so good condition as unwrapped melons. Loading different types of packages may obstruct air cir­ culation and thus seriously retard re­ frigeration. In cars equipped with these racks, as well as basket bunk­ ers, salt tnay.be effectively employed to ’ hasten' refrigeration. The ability of refrigerator cars to cool .melon ship­ ments, quickly,- and to maintain desir­ able temperatures in transit-depends directly upon proper bunker and bulk­ head cb'hstructlon, and upon the quan­ tity. and’ qualify of the insulating ma­ terial used.

Ity is improved-, by- cleaning or. drying the grain cannot be. disposed of ad­ vantageously. Moreover, grain containing impur­ ities, foreign matter, or. a high moire ture content is. quite likely to become hot In transit, which greatly reduces its value- and: frequently resuits In. serious financial loss. If-the elevator, is not provided with suitable equip­ ment for this process, such grain must be shipped in the condition in which it is received. : The farmer, should not place all re­ sponsibility for cleaning grain on the elevator, it is believed. It should.be remembered that elevator managers do not pay grain prices for the -dirt and water found in,a farmer’s grain. The price should be ■■ established by taking into consideration the neces­ sary expense of placing the grain In. marketable condition. The farmer who delivers , clean, dry, sound grain should receive a premium over the price paid to the more careless farm­ er who delivers grain of inferior qual­ ity, specialists say, . . . GUINEAS. UTILIZE ALL WASTE Fowls Pick Up Material That Escape Chickens and Turkeys—Are Prolific Egg Layers. Guinea fo.wlS utilize waste that would escape both hens and turkeys’, say poultry specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. Taking a wider range than chickens', and yet not so wide as turkeys, keep­ ing largely to thickets and weed patches, add committing fewer depre­ dations against'field and garden than either chickens or turkeys, requiring little feed at any time, being prolific layers' during their season of eggs, that are thought by many to have a richer and finer flavor even than hens’ eggs, the guinea fowl is well worth considering- on any farm where a serious ■ effort, is- made to convert all waste into meat and eggs. AIR CONSERVES BOARD FLOOR Free Circulation Underneath Prolongs Life of Lumbere-Cloae Open­ ings During Winter. Board floors usually are short-lived unless air is allowed to circulate un­ der them. This may be provided for by means of openings in the founda­ tion walls, which should be closed during the winter. A board floor cov­ ered with one-quarter inch of fine sand; with scratching material on this makes a .good floor. The litter and sand can be removed readily when de­ sired, and fresh materials: provided. If the wooden floors are constructed within two or three Inches - of-- the ground it is essential that-the founda­ tion walls be constructed in such a way that1 rats cannot gain access be­ neath the floor.

It's mercury. Calomel acts like dynamite on a slug-- gish. liver. When calomel, comes into contact with sour bile it crashes", into ItJ causing cramping and nausea. : If you feel bilious, headachy, consti­ pated and all knocked out, just go to yoiir druggist and get. a bottle of Dod­ son’s Liver Tone for a few cents which Is: a harmless vegetable substitute for dangerous calomel.

The death rate among infants is being grad­ ually reduced through new methods of hygiene, new preventatives and new reme- . dies for' infants. This reduction in the death rate has NOT been accomplished by adapting the precautions taken and remedies used by adnlts. Rather has it been, to keep clear of the old methods, and choose after long research the precautions, and remedies specifically applicable to infants.

Cherry Strickland came In tlie door of the Strickland house, and shut It behind her, and stood so, with her bands behind her on the knob, and her slender body leaning forward, and her bosom rising and fulling on deep, ecstatic breaths. It was May In Cali­ fornia, she was just eighteen, and for twenty-one minutes she had been en­ gaged to be married. She hardly knew why, after that last farewell to Martin, she had run so swiftly up the . path, and why she had flashed into the house, and closed the door with' such noiseless haste. There was nothing to run for! But it was as If she feared that the joy with­ in her might escape into the moonlight night that was so perfumed with lilacs and the scent of wet woods. She was afraid that' it was all too won­ derful to be true, that she would awaken in the morning to find It only a dream, that she would somehow fall short of Martin's ideal—somehow fail him—somehow turn all this magic of moonshine and kisses into ashes, and heartbreak. She was a miser with her treasure, already; she wanted to fly with it, and to hide it away, and to test Its' reality In. secret, . alone.’ • She had ■come running in from the wonderland down by the gate, just for this, just to prove to herself that It would not TfanIsh In the commonplaceness of the Bhabby hall, would not disappear be­ fore the everyday contact of everyday things. t Dad was in the sitting room, with the girls. The doctor’s house was full ■of girls. Anne, his niece, was twenty- Iour; Alix, Cherry’s sister, three years younger—Iiow staid and unmarried and undeslred they seemed tonight to !panting and glowing and glorified eighteen! Anne, with Alix’s erratic help, kept house for her -uncle, and was supposed to keep a sharp eye on Cherry, too. But she hadn’t been sharp enough to keep Martin Lloyd from asking her to marry him, exulted Cherry, as she stood breathless and laughing in the dark hallway. An older woman might have gone upstairs, to dream alone of her new . Joy, but Cherry- thought that it would be “fun” to join the family, and “act as if nothing had happened!” She was only a -child, after all. Consciously or unconsciously, they had all tried to keep her a child, these three who looked up to smile at her as she came in. One of them, rosy, gray-headed, magnificent at sixty, was her father, whose favorite she knew she was. He held out Iiis hand to her; without closing the book that was In the other -hand; and drew her to the wide arm of his chair, where she set­ tled herself with her soft young body resting against him, her slim ankles crossed, and her cheek dropped against his,thick silver hair. Alix. was reading, and. dreamily scratching her ankle as she read; she was a tall, awkward girl, younger far at' ‘ twenty-one than : Cherry was at eighteen, pretty in a gipsyish way, un- titly as.to hair, .Tyith round black eyes, high, thiii cheek-bones marked with scarlet, and a wide, humorous mouth tliat was sotuebow droll In its expres­ sion even when she was angry 0* seri­ ous. •• Anne, smiling 'demurely <m>* Iier white sewing, was a small, prettily made little woman, with, silky hair trimly braided, ’and a rather' pale; small face with charming and regular features. Anne had “adm irers,too; Cherry' reflected, looking -at her1 to* night, but neither she nor Alix Bad ever been engaged—engaged—env gaged! “Aren't you home early?” said Dr. Strickland, rubbing his cheek against his -youngest daughter’s cheek in sleepy content. H e was never' quite happy unless all three girls were In his sight, but for this girl he had al­ ways felt an especial protecting fond­ ness. He had followed" her exquisite childhood with more than a father’s usual devotion, perhaps because she really had been an exceptionally en­ dearing child, perhaps because she had been given him, a tiny crying- thing in a basket, to fill the great gap her mother’s going bad left In his heart. "Mr. Lloyd had to take the nine o’clock train,” Cherry answered her father' dreamily, “and he and Peter walked home with me!” She did not artt! that Peter had left them at his own Wniing1 a quarter of a mile away. - “ I thought he wasn’t going to be at Mrs. North’s for dinner,” Anne ob­ served quietly, in the silence. She had been informally asked to the Xivrtfts for dinner that evening her­ self, and had declined for iio other reason than that attractive Martin IJoytT was presumably not to be there. “He wasn’t,” Chferry said. “He thought he had to go to town at six. I Tnst stopped In to give them- Dad’s message, and they teased me to stay. Tmi knew where I was, didn’t you— Darf?” she murmured. “Mrs. NortIi telephoned about six, and said you were there, but she didn’t say that Mr. Lloyd was,” Anne said, with a faint hint of discontent In her tone. Alix fixed her bright, mischievous eyes upon the two, and suspended her reading for a moments Alix’s attitude toward the opposite sex was one- of calm contempt, outwardly.- But she had. made rather an exception of Mar­ tin Lloyd, and had recently had a conversation with him on the subject- of sensible, platonic friendships - be­ tween men and women. At the men­ tion of his name she looked up, re­ membering this talk with a lltfle thrill. Iiis name had thrilled Anne, too, al­ though she betrayed no sign, of it as she sat quietly matching silks. Ib fact, all three of the girls were quite ready to fall In love with' young Lloyd, if two of them had not actually d«se so,- '■ ■■ -i ■ Cherry had not been at home when Martin first appeared in MiU Talley, and the older girls. had written her', visiting friends In Napa, that she must come and nieet the new man. Martin was a mining engineer; he had been employed In a Nevada mine, but was visiting his cousin In the val­ ley now before going, to a new. position In .Tune. In Its'Informal .fashion, Mill Valley had entertained Jilm; he had tramped to the' big forest five , miles away w ith'the Stricklands, and there had been a picnic' to the mountain-top,' everybody making the hard climb ex­ cept Peter Joyce,' who was a trifle lame, and perhaps a little lazy as well, and who usually rode an old horse, with the lunch in saddle-bags at each side. AIix formulated her theories of platonic friendships on these w alks; Anne dreamed a foolish, happy dream. Girls did marry, nien did take wives to themselves, dreamed Anne; It would be unspeakably sweet, but il would be no miracle.! It was just after that mountain pic­ nic that Cherry had come home; on a Sunday, as It chanced, that was her eighteenth birthday, and on which Martin and his aunt were coining to dinner. Alix Iiad rfiarked the occasion by' wearing a loose velvet gown In which slie fancied herself; Anne had conscientiously decorated . the table, had seen to It that there “ was' ice cream, and chicken, and all the acces­ sories that make a Sunday dinner in the country a national Institution. Cherry had done nothing helpful. On the contrary, sh§ had disgraced herself and infuriated Hong by decid­ ing to make fudge the last minute. Hong had finally relegated her to the laundry, and it was from this Umbo that Martin, laughing joyously, extri­ cated her, when, sticky and repentant, she had called for help. It was Mar­ tin who untied the checked brown apron, disentangling from the strings the silky gold'tendrils that were blow­ ing over Cherry’s white neck, and Martin who opened the door for her sugary - fingers." and Martin who watched the flying little figure out of sight- with a prolonged “Whew-w-w!” of utter astonishment. The child was a beauty. Her eighteenth birthday! Sfartin had been shown Iiwr birthday gifts; books and a silver Belt buckle anti a gold pen and stationery and handker­ chiefs. A day or two' later she had had another gift; had opened the tiny Shreve box with a sudd'en hammering at her heart, with a presage-of delight. She had found a silver-topped candy jar, and the card of Mr. John Martin Lloyd, andf under the name; In tiny letters, the words “Oh, fudge!” The girls laughed over this nonsense ap­ preciatively, but there was'.more than IffBghter in Cherry’s heart. From that moment the worRt was Cfrsnged. Her father, her sister, her cousin had second place, now .dierry Iia1CJ put out her innocent little^ hand, amd had opened the gate, and! had passed through it into the world.' That hour was the beginning, and it ha&led her surely, steadily, to the other Bnur tonigfet when she had been kissed, am? &a«f kissed in return. 1So—we walk home with young mem?’ mused the doctor, smiling. “Book here, girts, this little M!ss Mbf- feti wlH be cutting you both out with that yOOTtg man, if you're not care- full!!” .

It did riot sell, as bis neighbors believed, - for a million dol­ lars', but for perhaps-'one-tenth of that sum. It was enough,. and more than enough, whatever ItV was. After Anne’s father died it m eant'that the doctor could live on In the brown house under th'e redwoods, with his girls, reading/: fussing with a new in­ vention, walking, consulting with Anne, laughing at Alix, and spoiling hisyaunaest-boni* ' v ; " , It was a perfect life for the old man; it was only lately that he begun uneasily to suspect that they would some day want something more, that they would some day tire of empty forest and blowing mountain ridge, and go away from the shadow.of Mt. Tamalpais1 and Into the world. Anne, now—was she beginning to fancy this young Lloyd? Dr. Strick­ land was surprised with the fervor with- which he repudiated the thought. This young engineer, who had drifted already into a dozen different and dis­ tant places, was not the man for staid little Anne. “What did. you want to see Mr. Lioyd about.tomorrow, Dad?” Cherry interrupted his thoughts to ask. “The rose vine. W hat did'he say uhout comihg over, Cherry?” v- Cherry remarked, between two rend­ ing yawns, that Mr. Lloyd was coming over tomorrow at ten o’clock, and Peter, too— “Peter won’t'b e much good!” Alix commented. Cherry looked at. her re­ proachfully. '' “You're awfully mean to Peter, late­ ly!” she protested. H er father gave her a shrewd look, with his good-night kiss, and Immediately afterward both the younger girls dragged their way up to bed. . AUx and Cherry shared a bare, woody-smelling room tucked away un­ der brown, eaves.

REMEpT GoaianteedWttaftMlffll NOVEL ST1TCHERY SHOWN IN FAVORITE SUITINGS ALL furbished up with new IdefiS in styles and trimmings, our fa­ vorite suitings' return to us this fall, as interesting as they ever were. They are as welcome as our favorite actresses are when they come back to the footlights with a new play and a new wardrobe. There are few novel­ ties among the fabrics used for suits and frocks, but this is of no conse­ quence. We know the. merits of those we have tried-, and they are liere again—In styles that are charming and In decorations that are beautiful and more or less unfamiliar. Tricotine and poiret twill show how interesting they may become In such dresses as those pictured here and embroidery takes on a new aspect when it appears in such unusual de­ signs. ■ Many new ideas are embodied In the dress of poiret twiU at the left of the two shown. EMrst1 Its under­ skirt is wider, but not much longer than underskirts have been. Over It there is a garment which appears to be & union of the redlfijfote and tunic with pipings .In a . contrasting color along Its seatHS and embroidery In the colors of both dress abd piping. Plait- Ings give a flare to the skirt of the over' garment and finish the elbow sleeves. The sash of folded satin ribbon begins^ at the sides, under silk ornaments, and Is finished with silk tassels. The handsome dress of tricotine at the right is a plainer l-edingote model, also approving a wider and somewhat flaring underskirt It has three-quarter length sleeves, that just suggest the bell shape and are split up the outside seam! The plain body of this over­ garment opens down the front reveal­ ing a satin vestee and It stands by the vogue for narrow, strap belts made of the material. K'eck, sleeves, and bottom of the overdress are flnisiiea with silk embroidery—in a new and rich design. Part of this embroidery turns out to be a silk braid, but most of it is stitchery. Both dresses are much toned up by their decorations. CLEVER SUGGESTIONS FOR A WATER ULY LUNCHEON w a t TABLE decorations made of crepe or tissue paper have reached such a degree , of beauty, that all their de­ signers need do .is to think up . new ones. Housewives and hostesses are eager to make use of all the ingenious, pretty and sometimes amusing novel­ ties that paper dealers provide for them to copy, and there is no end to the supply. Naturally, the first thing that comes to mind for table decorations are flow­ ers and many of .these are imitated In ■ pappr- with astounding fidelity. There are some blossoms so well adapted for copying that, at a little distance. It is hard to tel] the teal from the make-holteve. Boses of many kinds are wonderfully lifelike In pa­ per.

But what does a review of the first five months of Republican control o f government reveal, in feet? Most assuredly it reveals that considerable more than “talk” has been going on at the seat of government in Wash­ ington. Witness these accomplishment since the Republican administration began on the 4th of last March.

But, in view of the seaming in­ difference of some of them on this vitally important matter some de finite way of handling the problem thru a curfew ordinance or in some other way appears to be needed.

About a half an hour later he found her walking as fast as she could go toward a nearby woods, clutching a tiny basket in her hand. "Where have you been, Barbara, and for goodness’ sake where are you going?” her father asked, worriedly. “Ton have nearly worried your moth­ er and me to death.” "Well.

IMPROVING SOIL BY COVER CROPS They Add Humus,; Accumulate Nitrogen, Prevent Erosion, and Loss of Plant Food. AMERICAN CLASS OF FOWLS IS POPULAR Good Egg Prodidiere and M eat Well Sulted for Table. BYE LABBELr USED IW FJUl Problem Varies Largely With Locality, but It is. Best to Get Good Growth : Before Freezing Weatherv-r Methods Also Vary. (Prepared by the Diilted States Depart­ment of Agriculture.) . Planting cover , ,or' green manure crops is a matter which requires at­ tention In August: of September in most parts of the United States, say experts of the' United States Depart­ ment Of Agriculture. , Clover, vetch and other,1 'legumes serve the triple purpose of adding lib* mus to the soil, accumulating nitro­ gen and preventing soil erosibh. With some fender berry and fruit crops they also serve to protect the roots from severe winter weather. - Outside Pt the nitrogen-forming plants, rye is largely used as a cover crop sown In the fall and plowed under In the spring to add organic matter to the soil. The cover-crop problem varies largely with locality, ’ but for over­ winter purposes there is one rule which is universal, and that is to get the crop in the ground in time to se­ cure good growth before frost. A Practice of Long Standing. The use of clover or some other legume to enriCh the soil Is generally considered a cardinal agricultural practice In the humid sections of the United SjtAtes. It antedates by three- quarters of a century the monumental discovery that legumes store up ni­ trogen from the air. The belief that clover Was a valuablejmprover rested first on experience, and later experi­ ence was substantiated by the dis­ covery-of.. Qte relation between the legumes and the nodule-bacteria. 'Other legumes, as the cow pea, the Japan clover and' bur clover in the South and crimson clover on the At­ lantic coast, have come into use in the The Cover Crop Should. Mgke a Falri Amount of Growth Before it Isi Turned Under, territory, not well adapted to red clo­ ver. The various ..vetches are held In widespread .favor,. different. varieties being employed according to climate and crop conditions. ,When to Sow Cover Crop. " The time of planting and Ihe best crop to use Is. a matter which local conditions must dictate. Along the north Atlantic coast It is considered best to , get these crops ift from the first to the middle of August, while tn the extreme South the planting may be deferred .to early October. In the extreme North -hairy vetch is favored as a legume, cover or green manure crop, hut-rye is also largely planted. Prom middle Pennsylvania, to the north Alabama line crimson- clover gives good results. In the extreme South bur . clover, vetch and crimson clover areused, As well as velvet beans and cow "peas. ’ Wherever, clean cultivation is prac­ ticed the soil is likely to be In shape for broadcasting the seed.. If conven­ ient, it :can be harrowed In. In or­ chards a ■ light harrowir T disking may be.employed if the ground is free from sod. Care must, of course, be taken not to injure the- roots.' The crop is usually plowed under In the spring,' but this is not always done with orchards. Data collected in all parts of th' United States shows a general benefit from this form of ag­ riculture. Cover crops are of especial value to small gardeners and truckers, who often find it both difficult and expen­ sive to obtain stable manure. They add the humus which fs so necessary to maintain a good physical condition of the soil; Wherever -there'is a va­ cant’place. in the garden a few seeds of rye, vetch, clover, etc., may be sown and raked In;. If a suitable rota­ tion of crops is followed, all parts of the garden -may be covered with a green manure crop once every two or three years. QUARANTINE ALL NEWCOMERS Safest/ Plan to Separate Strange Stock for V/eek or Two to Determine Condition.

In Size- They Are Intermediate Be- tween Small and 'Large Breeds and Are Falrly.Good Foragers— They Make Good Mothers. I .. (Prepared by. the TJnited States Depart­ment. of. Agriculture.) In the American class of poultry are found the Plymouth Rock, Wyandotte, Java, Dominiquej Rhode Island Red and Buckeye. The fowls of these breeds S^e com­ monly cfalled general-purpose. fowls; because they are not only good egg producers,, but their carcasses are also well suited for the table. They are therefore the best breeds for the gen­ eral farm flocks of chickens, say. poul­ try specialists nf the United States Splendid Barrpd Plymouth Rock Pullet. Department of Agriculture. They are in good favor, too,.with, the poultry- packers on account of their table qualities. AJl the American breeds lay brown- shelled eggs. They all have yellow skins, and shanks free from feathers, which-are desirable qualities for table fowl in this country. In size they are intermediate between the smaller egg breeds, such as the -Leghorns, and the larger meat breeds, such as the Brah­ mas. Bi temperament they are also Intermediate, being less active than the egg breeds, but more so than the meat breeds. They are fairly good' -foragers. The American-class birds mature earlier than the meat breeds, but not so quickly as the egg breeds. -They, are setters1 and make good mothers. SAVE BEST OF GARDEN SEED Cloth .Bags: Are Best Containers for . - Large Seeds—Correct Label­ ing Is ImportanL ■ Seeds which have been grown and carefully saved should be well labeled and stored or all the previous labor -goes -for nothing, say experts of the United ■ States Department of Agrlqnl- - tnre- Cloth bags are the best contain­ ers for large seeds, such as peas, beans and corn. They should be used also for larger quantities of small- seeds, but for smaller lots paper envelopes,' made at home or purchased, are fairly satis­ factory, but usually are not gummed so as to close completely, and if han­ dled carelessly small seeds may sift out of them. . Correct labeling Is of paramount im­ portance. Every envelope or con­ tainer should show the kind and vari­ ety of seed, the date, including month and year when harvested, and the place where grown. For the cloth bags a -slip of paper bearing all this information should be inserted with the seed. It is very convenient also to have a tag on the outside of the bag, but on no account, should the in­ ner -label be omitted, because of the liability of loss of the outside tag.

Excel lent. The garden,. lawn, orchard and wind-break, constituting a consider­ able, portion, of -the farmstead, require good and preferably light -soil, While the ground occupied by the farm buildings may be the poorest land on the farm. Not Inftequently the two kinds of soil may be found within the farmstead area, blit It is better to sac­ rifice a little crop-producing land for the buildings than to handicap the garden or orchard with poor soil.

VEGETABLES PREPARED THE FRENCH WAY. The French, being masters In the art of cooking and seasoning, observe . , a few roles which explains the deli­ cacy of their dishes. AU vegetables are cleaned and covered with cold water, e x c e p t such vegetables as tomatoes, egg plant, com or peas, which depend much on their flavor for palatability. Then all vegetables, with few ex­ ceptions, are cooked In boiling- water, and the water is boiling when the veg­ etable is dropped In. - At the end of the cooking period the vegetable Is carefully drained (except In cases .where the vegetable is cooked In a very small amount of water and the water is used with seasonings as a eauce to serve with it, for example, green peas, and all steam removed be­ fore the seasonings are added. Stuffed Cabbage.—Select a small, hard head of cabbage and steam it or tie in a cloth and cook until tender, using salt In the water. When nearly tender enough, drain upside down and put Into it between the leaves or In a hollow made In the center the follow­ ing filling: One cupful of chopped cooked meat, one cupful Of soaked bread crumbs, one chopped onion, two tablespoonfuls of chopped paisley, one teaspoonful of thyme and a clove of garlic, finely minced, one-half teaspoon­ ful of salt and a few dashes of pepper. Place In a steamer and cook until thoroughly tender. Serve a thin white sauce in which a half cuptBl of cheese has been grated. Tomato Canape.—Out thick slices of ripe round tomatoes and on each put a spoonful of the following: chopped hard-cooked egg yolk, mixed smooth with one or two anchovies, for flavor, adding seasoning, onion juice, and serve with -a sprinkling , of finely minced chives. Spinach With Gravy.—Steam or cook the spinach in the water which clings to the leaves. Drain and chop fine. Return the spinach to the heat, add two tablespoonfuls of butter and one teaspoonful of flour. When well mixed add one and one-half cupfuls of any meat gravy or a sauce made from bouillon cubes.

SOME SOUTHERN DISHES. . \ The dishes of the South are differ­ ent, many of' them often because of different products; the following, however, may be prepared In almost any section of the Uni­ ted States: New Orleans Bisque.— Heat one cupful’ of milk, lacking a tablespoonful which is used to mix with a tablespoonful of cornstarch; stir until it bolls and thd cornstarch is well cooked. Remove, strain and cool. Then add two cup­ fuls of thin cream, one-half cupful of sugar, a. teaspoonful of vanilla and freeze in the usual way. When half frozen, stir in one dozen finely crum­ bled. macaroons. Finish freezing. Cucumber and Pimento Salad. Pare a chilled cucumber and cut intp. match- like pieces. Remove the pimentoes from the can, rinse in cold water and cut into strips like the cucumbers. Use equal measures of each. Drass each separately with French dressing with a little scraped onion added. Arrange •In a salad bowl and serve'with fish. Peppers a Ia Creole. — Take three large green peppers, three medium- sized tomatoes, six small slices Of ba­ con, one teaspoonful of chopped onion, one cupful, of cooked rice, one tea­ spoonful of salt, a few dashes of pep­ per and three-foourths of a cupful of water.

CTffiERFliL APRON DRESSES CONTINUE TO BE PRETTY I OF ALD the descriptive names which manufacturers have given to frocks and. aprons for house­ work, that of "apron-dress" is the most fitting. It describes exactly the uses to which these garments are put, for they serve both as' dresses -and as aprons. A great deal of attention is given to-designing them and they are among the most salable .of all things ready-made. Therefore manufactur­ ers see to it that their lines are good, their colors pleasing, and the mate­ rials used In them sturdy and practi­ cal. The apron-dresses for fall show no new departures in style, but their pro­ ducers ate giving more attention to At and to attractive finishing than ever. The fabrics used are the ones we are familiar with— fast-color percales In stripes, plaids and fancy patterns, checked and plaid ginghams and solid colors in ging­ hams and chambrays. In the percales there are dark or . light grounds with stripes and figures. White and solid colors In suitable cottons, rlc-rac and other braids, pearl buttons with a few tucks In the material, account for the decorations used sparingly on gar­ ments which afe Intended to be sim­ ple. ' It would seem that there is small chance for much variety of design in frocks that employ so few. kinds of material, but it turns out to be other­ wise. There are so many patterns In the materials used, so great variety In color and so many c klor combinations that a never-ending succession of de­ signs are produced. Besides, design­ ers seem endlessly Ingenious in the shaping of collars, belts, pockets, and In the placing of such simple finishing touches as buttons or the management of fastenings. A regulation apron- dress is presented 1,1 the picture; it is striped percale In the Sllp1On style, and the simplest design, but is typical of garments of this kind.

"Wouldn’t Stand for It" "That is to let people know that my eight days are just about up and that it is time to wind me. “But, alas, they do not always take the hint. In fact, very often they don’t. “How weary I have been so many, many, times and yet no one will take pity on me and wind me upw” “You shouldn’t be so anxious about keeping up to time,” said the Beets, which were cooking slowly on the stove. “Now, we are very different. We don’t care about time, or rather we don’t care about hurrying. We, like to be cooked very slowly and splutter and talk ps we are slowly cooking.” "But,” said the clock, “you wouldn’t like It if you were left alone when you needed attention. “You wouldn’t like it if you were left, quite alone, and perhaps the fire was allowed to go out. You wouldn’t like that.- You would simply refuse to be properly cooked.

Judging from reports from __ who are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr. EfimtetS Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success. An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on the subject, made the as­ tonishing' statement that one reason why bo many applicants for insurance are re­ jected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the large majority^ of those whose applica­ tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp Root is on sale at all drug 'stores in bottles of two sizes, medium and large. However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bingham­ ton,' N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.

He—I don’t suppose he really ever kissed her—” The old man hesitated, began again: “Just fancy,” he assured her. "Just an old father's fear that she is growing up too fast!” “Because we all, and you especially, spoil her.” Anne reminded him, smil­ ing “Peter.” she added thoughtfully, “has kissed us all, now and then!” She stooped for a dutiful good-night ilgs. and was gone. Downstairs, the doctor sat on, think­ ing and his face was grave. He was thinking of little Cherry’s good-night hiss, half an hour ago. She had rested against his arm, and he had held her there but what had been the thoeghts behind the blue eyes so near his own? He realized with a great rush of fear that some man had ldssed Cherry to­ night, had held her against a tobacco- scented coat, and that the girl was a woman, and an awakened woman at that- Cherrv—kissed a man I Her fa­ ther’s heart winced away from the thought. Young IJovd and Peter had walked home with her. But if Anne was right in her maidenly suspicions of Lloyd’s intentions, then it must have been Pe­ ter who surprised little Cherry with a sudden embrace. And as he came to his conclusions n certain relief crept into the old man’s heart. Peter was an odd fel­ low; he was ten years too old for the child. But Peter was a lover of books and gardens and woods and music, aft­ er all, and Peter’s father and this old man musing by the fire had been “Lee” and "PauV to each other since boy­ hood. Peter might give Cheny a kiss as innocently as a brother; In any case, Peter would wait for her, would be all consideration and tenderness when he did win her. Cherry, he reflected fearfully, was as pretty as her mother had been at eighteen, with the same rounded chin and apricot cheeks, 'and the same shadowed innocent blue eyes With a dim of corn-colored hair blown across them. She had the strange, the inde­ finable quality that without words, al­ most witlioiit glances, draws youth toward youth, draws admiration and passion, draws life and all its pain. Her father for the first time tonight formulated in his heart the thought that slie might be happily married— -IIanied-nonsense! Why, what did she Inow of life, of submission and courage and sacrifice? It would be yeais, many years, before the snowy fnlls, and the pale gold head, and the firm, brow n little hand would be ready for that! hot many hours after he went slow- ‘5 up to bed morning began to creep into the little valley.

They had a vague idea that he was rich, ac- cording to their modest standard, but he apparently had no extravagant tastes, and lived as quietly, or more quietly, than they did. Ho liked soli­ tude, books, music, dogs, and his fire­ side., The old doctor’s one social en­ joyment was In visiting Peter, and the younger' man went to no other place so steadily as he came to the old house under the redwoods. “ 'Morning, Peter!” said Doctor Strickland now, . smiling at him.. “Have you had yours?” “My house*” said Mr. Joyce, fastid­ iously, “is a well-managed place. Say,” ■he added, pursing his lips to whistle, as he looked at the rose tree, “did Tuesday’s wind do that?” “Tuesday’* wind and Dad,” Allx answered. “Will it go back, Peter?” “I—I don’t know I” he mused, walking slowly about the wreck. “If we. had a lever down here, and some fellow on the roof with a rope, may­ be." “Mr. Lloyd is coming overt” Allx announced. Peter nodded absently, but the mention of Martin Lloyd re­ minded him that. they, had all' dined at his house on the very evening when the mysterious gale had commenced, and with Interest he asked: “Cherry catch cold coming home Tuesday night?” “No; she squeezed in between Dad and me, and was as warm as toast!” Allx answered casually. “How’d you like Mr. Lloyd?” she added. “Nice fellow!” Peter answered. “He’s awfully nice,” AIix agreed. “Who is he?” Peter asked curiously. “Where are his people and all that?" “His people live in Portland,” the girl answered. “He’s a mining en­ gineer, and he’s waiting now to be called to BI Nido; he's to be at a mine there. He’s lots of fun—when you know him, really!" “Talking of the new Prince Charm­ ing, of course,” Anne said, joining them, and linking an arm in her un­ cle’s and in Alix’s arm. “Don’t bring that puppy In, Alix, please! Break­ fast, Uncle LeA Come and have an­ other cup of coffee, Peter!” “Prince Charming, eh7’,’ Peter echoed thoughtfully, as they all turned toward a delicious drift of the odor of bacon and coffee, and crossed the porch to the dining room; “I was going down for the mail, but now. I’ll have to stay and see this rose matter through! Thanks, Anne, but Pll watch you. Where’s Cherry?” he added* glancing about. Cherry answered the question her­ self by trailing in in a Japanese wrap­ per, and beginning to drink her coffee with bare, slender arms resting on the table. Nobody protested, the adored youngest was usually given her way. “I heard you all laughing, under the ’ window and it—woke—me—up !”■ Cherry said dreamily. “It seems to me,” • Anne, who had been eyeing her uneasily, said lightly, “that some one I know is getting pret­ ty old to come downstairs in that rig when strangers are here!” “It seems to me this is just as de­ cent as lots of things—bathing suits, for- instance!” Cherry returned in­ absorbed face—for she was dreaming over her breakfast—to Peter, and he wondered If Peter had kissed her. “Come on, let’s get at it!” Alix ex­ claimed with relish. ‘!Come on, Sweetums,” _.sbe added, to the dog. She caught his forepaws, and he whipped his beautiful tail between his legs, and looked about with agon­ ized eyes while she dragged ’ him through a clumsy dance. “He's the darljngest pup we ever had!” Allx stated to.Cherry, who was departing tor the tipper regions and a complete costume. "Bring your Hgarette out here, Pe­ ter," the old doctor said, crossing the garden to look in the abandoned greenhouse for his rope. “It’s not here,” he stated.. Then he began' again, “You brought Cherry home last night?” he asked. “As a matter of fact, I didn’t,” Pe­ ter answered, In his quick,- precise tones. “I came with Lloyd and Cherry as far as the bridge, then I cut up the hilL Why?” he added sharply.. “What’s up?” “Nothing’s' up,” Doctor Strickland said slowly. “But I think Lloyd ad­ mires—or Is beginning to admire— her,” he said. “Who—Cherry I" Peter exclaimed, with distaste and incredulity In his tone. “You don’t think so?" the doctor, looking at him wistfully, asked eag­ erly. .“Why, certainly, not!” Peter said, his face very red. “She’s much younger than Anne and Alix—” _■ “It doesn't always go by that,” the doctor suggested. "No, I know it doesn’t,” Peter an­ swered In his quick, annoyed fashion. “I should be sorry," Cherry’s father admitted. “Sorry!” Peter echoed impatiently. “But it’s quite out of the question, of course! It’s quite out of the ques­ tion. She—she wouldn’t consider him for _an instant," he suddenly decided in great satisfaction. “You mustn’t! forget that she has something to do with It! Very fastidious, Cherry. She’s not like other girls!” “Thats true—that’s true!” Doctor Strickland agreed, In great relief. They turned back toward the garden, In time to meet AIix and several dogs streaming across the 'clearing. Over the girl’s shoulder was coiled the great rope; she leaped various logs and small bushes as she came, and the dogs barked madly and leaped with her. Breathless, she stumbled and fell into her father’s arms, and both men had the same thoughts, one that made them smile upon her tom- boyishness indulgently i “If this is twenty-one—eighteen is three long years younger and less responsible!” “Hello, Old Bumpy-doodlesl” Bald Allx, Burying Both Hands.

Now where is that rope?” But even n. Aitv AhconroS that, she had seen it CHAPTER II. Immediately they gathered by the fallen rose' vine,'all talking and dis­ puting at once. A light rope was tied; an experimental tug broke it like a string, tumbling Alix violently in a sitting position, and precipitating her father into a loamy bed. Anne, who was bargaining with a Chinese fruit vendor frankly interested in their un­ dertaking, had called that she would help them in a second, when behind Allx, who was still sitting on the ground, another voice offered help. A young man had come into the doctor's garden^ work was stopped for a few minutes while they wel­ comed Martin Lloyd. He was tall and fair, broad, but with’ not an ounce of extra weight, with brown eyes always laughing; and a ready friendliness always in evi­ dence. Anne’s heart gave a throb of approval -as she studied him ; Alix! flushed furiously, scowled’ a certain bpyish approval.; Cherry had not come down. “Can you help us?” The doctor echoed his question doubtfulljr. “I don’t know that it can be done!” he admitted. "What's that you’re eating—an apri­ cot?" Martin said to Anne, in his laughing way. “I was going to sqy that if it was a peagb.you are a can­ nibal!” - “Oh, help!” Alix ejaculated, with a look of elaborate scorn. “No, but where w ere, you last night?” Martin added In a lower tone when he and Anne could speak unno-' tlced. The happy color flooded her face. . . . . . . . ‘I have to take care of my family sometimes!” she reminded him de­ murely. “Wasn’t Cherry a good substi­ tute?” ‘ - v “Cherry’s adorable !” be agreed. “Isn’t she sweet?” -Anne asked en­ thusiastically. “She’s only a little girl, really, but she’s a little girl who is going to have a lot of attention' some day !’’,.she added, in her most matron­ ly manner.

Her bright'head was'hidden by a blue sunbonnet, -assumed, she explained later, because the thorns tangled., her hair; but as, laughing andvsmothered with roses, she crept into view, the sunbonnet slipped back, and the love­ ly, flushed Jlttle fgee, with tendrils of gold straying Serds's the wUite for?-, head, and mischief, gleaming in the blue, blue eyes was framed only in loosened pale gold hair. V Years afterward AlIx remembered her. so, as Martin Lloyd helped her to spring free of the branches, and she stood laughing at their, surprise and still clinging to his hand. “The day we raised the rose tree!’ had a place of its own In Alix’s memory, as a time of carefree fun ^nd content, a time of perfume and sunshine—perhaps the last time of its kind that any one of them was to know. Cherry looked at Martin daringly as she joined the laborers; her whole be­ ing was thrilling to the excitement of his glance; She was hardly conscious of what she was doing or saying. Mar-.. tin came close to her, In the’ general confusion. “How’s my little sweetheart this morning?” Cherry looked up, her throat con­ tracted, she looked down again, un­ able to speak. She had been waiting for his first word; now that it had come it seemed so far richer and sweeter than her wildest dream. ■ “How can I see you a minute?” Mar­ tin murmured, snapping his big knife shut. ■ “I have to walk Aown for the mail —” stammered Cherry, conscious only of Martin and herself. Both Peter and her father were watching her with an uneasiness and Laughing and Smothered With Rosea; She Crept Into View. suspicion that had sprung into being full-blown. Both men were asking themselves what they knew of this strange' young man who was suddenly a part of their intimate little world. . Peterj in his secret heart, had a vague, dissatisfied feeling that Lloyd was a man who held women, as a class, rather , in disrespect, and had probably had his experiences with them, but there was no way of ex­ pressing, much less governing his conduct toward Martin by so purely speculative a prejudice.. Somewhat appalled, In the sunny garden, strug­ gling with the banksia, Peter decided that this was not much to know of a person who might have the audacity to-fall In.love with an exquisite, and innocent Cherry. After all, she would not be a little girl forever; some man would want to take that little corn- colored head and that delicious little pink-clad person away with him some day, to be his wife— ' And suddenly Peter was torn by a stab of pure pain, and he stood puz­ zled and sick, In the garden bed, won­ dering what was happening to himj “Listen—want a drink?” Alix asked, coming out 'w ith a tin dipper that spilled a glittering sheet of water down the thirsty nasturtiums. “Best a few minutes, Peter. Dad wanted a pole, and Mr. Lloyd has gone up into the woods to cut one.” !‘And where's Cherry?” Peter asked, drinking deep. “She went along—just up in the woods here!” Allx answered. “They’ll be back before you couid get there. They’ve been gone five minutes I”* ■* * * * * * * Five minutes were enough to take Cherry and her lover out of sight of the house, enough to have him put his arm about her, -and to have her raise her lips confidently, and yet shyly, again to his. They kissed each other deeply, again and again. Their talk was incoherent Cherry was still playing, coquetting and smil­ ing, her words few, and Martin, hav­ ing her so near, could only repeat the endearing' phrases Hiat attempted to express to her his love and fervor.. “ You darling I Doyou know how l love you? You AarlIng—you little ex= quisite beauty!

Confine the back-yard flock; other­ wise the hens will stray into neigh­ bors’ yards and gardens; where they may cause damage and are almost Bure to cause Ui feeling. The yard should be inclosed by a board or wire fence. Wire fencing is preferable, as it is cheaper and the hens are less likely to fly over it, say poultry spe­ cialists of the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture. It cats prove troublesome where one Is raising chickens, it may be necessary to cover the top of the yard with wire also. A board should not be used at the top of a wire fence, as this gives the hens s visible place to, alight Mid tends to teach them to fly over. A 5-foot fence is high enough for most conditions, but if the hens show a tendency to fly over such a fence the flight feathers of one wing should be dipped. Leghorns, need a 6-foot fence. The larger the yard which can be provided the better the hens will do, as it pot only gives them greater Opportunity to exercise, but also makes it possible to maintain a sod' on the yard. In most cases not enough land will be available so that a sod can be maintained. If the yard is fairly large, it can be divided into two .parts and green crops, such as oats, wheat, iye, or Dwarf Essex rape allowed to start in one yard while the hens are confined to. the . other. The green crops should be sown very thick, and the following quantities will be found satisfactory for a yard 25 by 30 feet: Wheat, 2% pounds; oats, 1% pounds; rye, 3% pounds, rape, 5 ounces. When the growing- stuff reaches a height of 3 to 4 inches the hens can be turned upon it and the other yard be simi­ larly sown. Where it is inadvisable to divide the yard it is possible to keep a sup­ ply of green stuff growing by using a wooden frame 2 or 3 Inches high cov­ ered with 1-inch-mesh wire. A frame made of I by 2-inch lumber, 6 feet long and 3 feet wide, with an addi­ tional piece across the center to sup port the wire, when the hens stand on it, will be found desirable for a small yard. A part of the yard as large as this frame is spaded up and sown, the frame placed over it, and the mate­ rial allowed to grow. As soon as the green sprouts reach the wire the hens & Vv * * MERCHANT TELLS OP A REMARKABLE CASE Writing from Maxey’s, Ga.; A. J. Gillen, proprietor of a large depart­ ment store at that place, says: “I' have a customer here who was In bed for three years and did not go to a meal at any time. She had five phy­ sicians and they gave. her out. One bottle of TanIac got her up, • on the second bottle she. commenced keeping house and on the third she did all the cooking and housework..for a family of eight” .

An East side Italian woman, mother of three small children, has invented a way to prevent her offspring from playing in the middle of the street, thus keeping them away from traffic dangers. Every day she takes them down to. the front door of the tene­ ment house In which Ihey live, slips a nOose around each waist and neck, and then ties the end of the rope, with about five feet leeway, to an iron rail­ ing In front of the house, and the chil­ dren play among themselves.

This frame can be moved from " place to place In the yard, .and In this way different parts cultivated. The.' yard should be stirred or spaded up frequently, if-not In sod. In order to keep it in the best condition. This will not Only tend to keep down any odors which might arise, but also allow the droppings to be absorbed into the sol] more readily, and, there­ fore, keep the yard In better condi­ tion for the hens. Although it is necessary to keep the hens ccmfinqd to their yard most of Gie time, it Is sometimes possible to let them out where they- may--range upon the lawn for an hour, or so In the evening when some, one can be at hand to watch them or at certain sea= sons of the year to allow them to run In the garden plot. This will be en­ joyed greatly by the hens and will be very beneficial to ,them. WOMAN MOIDi AN OPEBflTION. Hope Nearly Gone) but Lydia E.

They are divided into several classes a/3 follows: 1st. Certkin lawyers who -get pay for drawing petitions and papers for elections and selling the bonds 2nd. Banks and bond buyers who are getting the bonds at a big discount. 3rd. Contractors who want to work. 4th. Many and sundry persons, firms and corporations who expect to furbish supplies and materials. 5th,- A large number of para­ sites who live, eat and exist at tjie tax payers expense, and who- care little how great a. burden they help to place upon the taxpayers should­ ers, for they pay little of the taxes directly themselves, thinking only of themselves—they don’t realize that the higher the. taxes go, the more rent they pay, and the higher the prices they pay for the things they live on. ~ ' - 6 th. The 6th and last. class are composed of- people, who vote as the bosses direct, regardless of their own and their neighbors best inter­ est. , i Mr. Edward Dingley says we are facing one of the greatest crisis ever confronting' the government, largely due to the inflation of the dollar, and the issuing of billions of indigestible bonds and stocks, which if not met, will eventually lead to bankruptcy. Let’s reason- together and put this bond, issue off awhile. We all want better schools and many other desirable things, which we cannot have right now,--and many of us will die with­ out realizing iriany ,of our cherish­ ed wishes and desires. All of us are going tt/ feel the effects’ of short crops in Davie, both town and coun try folks before many 'moons pass. Lets vote them down on September 6th, and give the people a breath­ ing spell before adding to the bur­ dens. I know I am cussed and dis­ cussed in the town and by some in the country, but it has just about the same effect upon me as pour­ ing water.on $ duck’s back. From now on I shall devote my spare time and talents to help the folks, hew­ ing to the line, regardless of what the scoffers or scoraers may say or do. . E. H. MORRIS.

Wbyput vourgood into a scrub that is worth ouly $40.00 at a year old when you could put the same feed into a purebred and seli it-for . §65.00. ■ Why pay $75,00 for a scrub bull that is worth less than $50 00 when you can get a purebred bull for $200 that is worth $500 on 25 cows? Why breed scrubs that will kill out only 45 to 58 percent when you can breed purebreds that will kill out from 52 to 64 per cent? Why use a scrub bull that sires a non-descript bunch of measly calves when you can use a purebred bull that will sire calves of uniform co lor, size and conformation that will pleasee the eye of the buyer, and make more money. Corn Rows 12 Miles Long. To say that there are two rows of corn it Greenville 12 miles long is a re­ markable statement. No one would expect to find rows quite so long in a rolling country. On Sam Howard’s farm near Gras­ sy Creek church there are two rows of corn, each 12 miles long and about one yard apart. Mr. Howard selected a good level field for operaions. In drilling the corn he started his tractor plow at one corner of the field, and as hp went around and round he reached the common center of the field about two hours later, having planted two rows each 12 miles long. Ha tills the corn in the same way and is is one of tne most promising fielns of com in the county. Supposing the field is one-half a mile long we. will leave it to you to figure the width to ascertain the number of acaes containec in the two rows.—Oxford Ledger.
