One (lay In December of that year, I had my' first trial in the full respon sibility of man’s work. I wns allowed to loud and harness and hitch up and go to the mill w ithout assistance. My uncle and Purvis, our hired man, were busy with the chopping and we were out of flour and meal. It took a lot of them to keep the axes going. So I filled two sacks with corn and two w ith w heat and put them into the box wagon, for the ground w as bare, and hitched up my horses and set out. I reached the mill safely and be fore the grain was ground the earth and the sky above were white w ith snow driving down In a cold, stiff wind out of the northwest. I loaded my grists and covered them w ith a blanket and hurried away. The snow came, so fast th at it alm ost blinded me. T here were tim es when I could scarcely see the road or the horses. The wind came colder and soon it w as hard work to hold the reins and- keep my hands from freezing. Suddenly the wheels begnn jum ping over rocks. The horses w ere in the ditch. I knew w hat w as the m atter, lo r my eyes had been filling with snow and I had had to brush them often. Of course the team had suffered in a like m anner. Before I could stop I heard the crack of a felly and a front wheel dropped to its hub.- I checked the horses and jum ped out and w ent to their heads and cleared their eyes. The enow w as up to my knees then. How the thought of th at broken wheel smote m e! I t w as our only heavy wagon, and we having to pay the m ortgage! W hat would my uncle say? The query brought tears to my eyes. I unhitched and led my horses up into the cover of the pines. How grate ful it seemed, for the wind w as slack below but howling in the treetops! I knew th at I w as four miles from home and knew not how I w as to get there. CSbilled to the bone, I gathered some pttch pine and soon had a fire going w ith my flint and tinder. I knew that . I could m ount one of the horses and lead Ihe other and reach home prob ably* B ut there w as ttie grist. We seeded th a t; I knew th at we should have to go hungry w ithout the g rist It would get w et from above and be low if I tried to carry it on the back of a horse. I w arm ed m yself by the 'lire and hitched my team near it so as to thaw the frost out of their forelocks and eyebrows. I felt in my coat pock ets and found a handful of nails— everybody carried nails in one pocket in those days—and I rem em ber that m y uncle’s pockets w ere a museum of bolts and nuts and screws and wash- 'ers. The idea occurred to me th at I would m ake a kind of sled which w as called 1 a jum per. So I got my ax out of the wagon and soon found a couple of sm all trees ■with the right crook fo r the forward' end of a runner, and cut them and \ hewed their bottom s as smoothly as I could. Then I made notches in them near the top of their crooks and fitted a stout stick into the notches and se cured it with nails driven by the ax- head. Thus I got a hold for my evener. T hat done, I chopped and hewed an arch to cross the middle of the run ners and hold them apart and used all my nails to secure and . brace i t I got the two boards which w ere fas tened together and constituted m y wagon seat and laid them over the arch and front brace. How to make them fast w as my w orst problem. I succeeded in splitting a green stick , to hold the bolt of Ote evener ju st un der its head while I heated its lower end in the fire and kept Its head cool w ith snow. W ith this I burnt a hole ■■ in the-end of each board and fastened them to the front brace w ith w ithes of moosewood. It w as late in the day and there was no tim e for the slow process of burn ing m ore holes, so I notched the other ends of the boards and lashed them to the rear brace with a length of my ' reins. Then I retem pered my bolt and brought Bp the grist _and chain and - fastened the latter between the boards in the* middle of the front brace, .. hitched m y team to the chain and set • out again, sitting on the bags. -It w as pitch dark and the horses* w ading to their bellies and the snow ’ ' punltur faster when We tunted Into R attleroad. Soon I heard a loud hal loo and knew th at it w as the voice of Uncle Peabody. H e had started out to m eet m e in the storm and Shep w as w ith him. “Thank God I’ve found ye I" he shouted. “I'm blind and tired out and I couldn’t keep a lantern goin’ to save me. A re ye froze?” ‘T m all right, but these horses are aw ful tired. H ad to let ’em rest every few minutes.” I told him about the wagon—and how it relieved me to hear him say: “As long as you’re afl right, boy, I ain’t goin’ to w orry ’bout the ol' wag on—not a bit. W here’d ye git yer jum per?” "M ade it w ith the ax and some nails,” I answered. A fter we got to the barn door a t last he w ent to the house and lighted his lantern and cam e back w ith It w rapped In a blanket and A unt Deel cam e w ith him. How proud it made m e to hear him say: “Deel, our boy is a man now—made this jum per all ’lone by him self an’ has got through all rig h t” She cam e and held the lantem up to my face and looked a t my hands. “Well, m y stars, B art I” she ex claimed in a m om ent “I thought ye would freeze up solid—ayes—poor boy I” W e carried the grist In and Aunt Deel made some pudding. How good it w as to feel the w arm th of the fire and of the hearts of those who loved me4 How I enjoyed the pudding and ‘ milk and bread and butter! “I guess you’ve gone through the second peril th at ol’ K ate spoke of,” said A unt Deel as I. w ent upstairs. U nde Peabody w ent out to look at the horses. W hen I awoke in the m orning I ob served that Uncle Peabody’s bed had not been slept in. I hurried down and heard th at our off horse had died In the night of colic. A unt Deel w as cry ing. As he saw m e Uncle Peabody began to dance a jig In the middle of the floor. "Balance yer p artn ers!” he shouted. “You an’ I ain’t goin’ to be discouraged if all the hosses die—be we, B art?” '•Never,” I answered; ‘T h at’s the ta lk ! If nec’sary w^’ll hitch Purvis up w ith t’other hoss an’ git our haulin’ done.” H e and Purvis roaged w ith laughter and the strength of the current swept me along w ith them. “We’re the luckiest folks in tlie .world, anyway,” Uncle Peabody w ent on. “B art’s alive an’ there's three feet o' snow on the level an’ m ore cornin’ an’ It’s colder’n Greenland.” . It w as such a b itter day th a t we worked only three hours and ■ came back3 to the house and played Old Sledge by the fireside. .

B ut while w e got our pay in paper “bank money,” w e had to pay our debts in w heat, salts or com, so v th at our earnings really am ounted to only $62.50, m y uncle said. W e gave the balance and ten bushels qf w heat to M r. Grfanshaw for; a spavined horse, after which he agreed to give us a t least a year’s ex tension oii the principal. W e felt easy then. after she w as foaled. I had fed and petted and broken and groomed her and she had grown so fond of m e th at my w histled call-would bring her gal loping from the rem otest reaches of the pasture. I had named her Sally because th at w as the only nam e which seemed to express my fondness. “Mr. Purvis” w as not an experienced rider. My filly led him a t a sw ift gal lop over the hills, and I heard many a m uttered com plaint behind me, but she liked a free head when w e took the road together, and I let her have her way. .Coming back we fell in w ith another rider who had been resting a t SeaversS little tavern through the heat of the day. H e w as a traveler on his way to Canton and had. m issed the right trail and w andered fa r afield. H e had a big m ilitary saddle w ith bags and shiny brass trim m ings and a pistol In a holster, all of which appealed to my eye and interest. The filly w as a little tired and the stranger and I w ere rid ing abreast a t a w alk while Purvis trailed behind us. W e heard 'a quick stir in the bushes by the roadside. “W hat's that?" Purvis dem anded In a half-w hisper of excitem ent. W e stopped. Then prom ptly a voice—a voice w hich I did not recognize—broke the silence w ith these m enacing words, sharply spoken: .“Your m oney or your life !” “Mr. Purvis” whirled his horse and slashed him up the hill. Glancing backward, I saw him lose a stirrup and fall and pick him self up and run as if his life depended on it. I saw the stranger draw his pistol. A gun w ent off in the edge of the bushes close by. T he flash of fire from its muzzle leaped a t the stranger. The horses reared and plunged and m ine threw m e in a clump of sm all popples by the roadside and dashed down the hill. M y fall on the stony siding had stm n ed m e and I lay for three or four seconds, as nearly as I can estim ate it, in a strange and peaceful dream .

It came one July day when I w as in m y sixteenth year. H e behaved badly, and I, as any normal boy would have done who had had my schooling in the candle light. AVe had kept Grimshaw from our door by paying interest and the. sum of §80 on the principal. It had been hard work to live com fortably and carry the burden of d eb t Again Grimshaw had begun to press us. My uncle w anted to get his paper and learn, if possible, when the senator w as expected in Canton. So he. gave m e perm ission, to ride with Purvis to the post offlc^—a^dis- tance of three miles—to get the mail. Purvis rode In our only saddle and I bareback, on 'a handsom e w hite filly which my uncle had given m e soon A Gun W ent Off in the Edge of the Bushes Close By. \ Ing to visit m e again, and why, above all, should it have seemed to m e th a t enough things' w ere said and done in th at little flash of a .dream to fill a whole day—enough of talk and play and going and coming, the whole end ing w ith a talk on the haymow? Again and again I have wondered about th at dream . I cam e to and lifted my head and m y consciousness sw ung back upon the track of memory and took np the thread of the day, the briefest rem ove from w here it had broken. I peered through the bushes. T he light w as unchanged., I could see quite clearly. T he horses w ere gone. It w as very still. T he stranger lay helpless in the road and a figure w as bending over him . I t w as a m an w ith a handkerchief hanging over his face w ith holes cut opposite his eyes. H e had not seen my fall and thought, as I learned later, th at I had ridden away. H is gun lay beside him, its stock tow ard me. I observed th a t a piece of wood hud been split off the lower side of th e stock. I jum ped to my feet and seized a stone to hurl a t h in t1 A-? I did so the robber fled w ith gun in hand. If the gun had been loaded I suppofse th at this little history would never have been w ritten. Quickly I hurled the stone a t the robber. I re m ember it w as a sm allish stone about the size of a hen’s egg. I saw It .graze the side of his head.. I saw his hand touch the place whlcli the stone had grazed. H e reeled and nearly fell and recovered him self and ran on, but the little stone had p u t the m ark of Cain upon him. T he stranger lay still in the road. I lifted his head and dropped it quick ly w ith a strange sickness. T he feel of* it and. the way it fell back upon the ground when I let go scared me, for I knew th at he -wa* dead. T he dust around him w as w et. I ran down the hill a !few steps and stopped and w histled to my 'filly. I could hear her answ ering whinny far down the dusty road and then her hoofs as she gal loped-tow ard me. She cam e w ithin a few feet of m e ai.d stood snorting. I caught and m ounted her and rode to th e nearest house-for help. On the w ay I saw why she had stopped..

T he physical facts w hich are farth er related to this tragedy are of Uttla m om ent to m e now. T he stranger -was dead and we took his body to our-fct»me and m y uncle se t out fo r the constable.

I had- told of the gun w ith a piece of wood broken out of its stock, but no one knew of any such weapon in or n ear Lickitysplit. O ae day -Uncle Peabody and I drove up to Grim shaw’s to m ake a paym ent o f money. I rem em ber It w as gold and silver w hich we carried in a little sa^k. I asked, w here Amos w as and M rs.

By LLOYD ALLEN, « Speoial Staff Correspondent. (Copyright, W estern Newspaper Union.) London.—“Will Am erica be willing to take on some of the German col onies or Turkish possessions In the near E ast?” T hat is a question that is uppermost In the m inds of a large section of the governing class of England. ,Men who have led British political thought for years believe th at we “should assum e some of the responsibility of governing the lands captured from the Germans and Turks.” as one leading British publicist told me recently. There Is a double reason back of this idea. F irst of nil. America is an English- speaking nation th at can be trusted to adm inister wisely and well the desti nies of a less-enlightened people. Secondly, “it is only through actual participation In the responsibilities of looking after far-away colonies that America can ever appreciate the true state of mind of the British people of all classes, upper, middle and lower, on this delicate subject of empire,” it is stated by several prom inent propa gandists Division of Colonies. At this -stage’ of the peace negotia tions the question of dividing the col onies is a m atter on which no public man is anxious to go on record. But unofficially the subject is attracting wide attention. Too many interests are involved to invite outspoken dis cussion. There are larger problems th at m ust first be solved: Tlie lim ita tion of annam ents, freedom of the seas and above all other subjects, form a tion of a league of nations. Once these are disposed of the colonial knot will probably be quickly cut. Ir is w ith im plicit faith in the ulti m ate outcome of these basic affairs th at the intelligent Briton outlines -his belief th at America, if she is to rem ain as a leading factor in world politics, m ust go into the colony business. Should such a course be embarked on by the United States, should we take, for instance, the adm inistration of Palestine and Armenia and possibly some of the fonder German lauds In South Africa, it would be put on the sam e platform th at the best elements in England accept for In d ia: namely, th at sooner or later India will develop into a dominion capable of self-govern m ent. like Canada and A ustfalia, and m ust then be given every freedom to determ ine her own destiny. The same principles would apply to the subject African states—ultim ate freedom to choose w hether or not the ties that bind to the m other country m ust be cut, ,or allowed to remain. Answerable to League of Nations. Through alt the days of American adm inistration—and it is adm itted m any of these days would prove irk some nnd expensive—America would be answerable to the league of nations for her actions in Ilie territory held In trust, ju st as the other European pow ers, England, France and Italy, will be answ erable to the league of nations for any m aladm inistration of subject peoples. •In brief, intelligent England is rec ommending for world consideration a new form of colonial control, with the feeling that the world has outgrown the days when a Spanish tyrant could terrorize Cuba, or a ’ brutalized Ger m an government could commit atroci ties In South Africa. There is in America a somewhat general belief th at the average B rit ish citizen takes great pride in the large colonial possessions of his, coun try : th at he gloats with much satis faction over the fact that G reat B rit ain controls something like one-quar ter of the inhabitable portions of the world. Our ideas on this subject are not exactly correct. T here is a large ele m ent In the citizenship of this coun try th at is dead against the proposal to acquire any more territorial posses sions.

Here we have another side of the problem tlint m any . predict will be solved by providing for enlightenm ent of the uncivilized colonial peoples, and by introducing into colonial governm ent a num ber of reform s—prohibition of the sale of alcohol to natives, first of all, and next the establishm ent of wel fare departm ents calculated to better the living conditions of the natives. Much effort is being expended here in England to sta rt fundam ental re form s in the attitude toward the col onies. Booklets are being issued and are ju st off the press. One entitled “W indows of Freedom ” carries an in troduction by Viscount Grey. "America’s Place in W orld Govern ment” is given considerable space. It is strongly pointed out that “none of the territories outside Europe de tached by this w ar from the German and Turkish ’empires can in the near future provide peace, order and good government for themselves. How to provide government for these terri tories is the most difficult of the ques tions whicli the conference has to face. From a hundred lips and pens the answer will come th at the solution lies in international control. The leagneof nations will solve the • problem. The booklet then emphasizes that the league of nations, in itself, cannot provide actual government for the col onies: that government m ust be fur nished by one of the associated pow ers, acting in a way as agent for the league of nations and’of course respon sible to the league. Freedom Is Secured. “The control of the four continents has fallen, or is now falling, to the free peoples of the earth,” the booklet with the Viscount Grey introduction states, and by that control the exist ence of freedom is secured, not only in Europe, but also in America and Australia. “But w hat is the effect of this vic tory to be on Asia, Africa and ti e scattered rem nants of primitive so ciety who inhabit a hundred Pacific isles? In the end the effect m ust be th at they, too, will achieve the art of governing themselves. But the question, how soon can the end be reached, depends on a right under standing by the free nations who now control the world of the delicate and complex nature of the problem. Fail ure to grasp it will not only delay the end but may yet set the civilized world by the ears,” in brief, may yet fortn the grounds for another war. There is no sentim ent expressed In the publications now being issued on tlie colonial problem against any fea ture. of the fourteen points laid down in President Wilson’s peace declara tion. Instead, there is shown an ef fort to m ake these points harmonize with the argum ents advanced for American participation in colonial gov ernment. What Wil6on Said. President W ilson’s fifth clause, In the notable fourteen points, asks for “A free, open-minded and absolutely im partial adjustm ent of all colonial claims based Upon a strict observance of Jlie principle that In determ ining all such questions of sovereignty the interests of the populations concerned m ust have equal weight with the equl- tajde claims of the government whose title is to be determ ined.”- The whple point at Issue, according to this recently published British view, is Ihat no governm ent shall claim ex clusive title to the captured lands, but that one government m ust take the responsibility of adm inistration and be responsible in turn to an international tribunal. Clause twelve of the president’s peace term s provide for the lopping off of Armenia and Palestine from Turkey and insist th at these one-time subject states shall “he assured anun- dnubted security of life and an abso lutely unmolested opportunity of au tonomous development.” which oppor tunity, it is pointed out here, would most assuredly be provided were America acting as a kind of big broth er to the Armenians and people of Pal estine. There is hope here among the most far-seeing British thinkers that Amer ica will discard her traditional aloof ness, and become custodian of the Ar menians, of Palestine, and take charge even of the Dardanelles, m aintaining an open-door policy, a policy the Brit ish will undoubtedly strongly urge on the French and Italian governments as an expedient in wise territorial govern ment. It. is even being urged th at we take over the task of preserving the au tonomy of Persia and Arabia. T hat America possesses knowledge for handling such a large assignm ent is undoubted. It is pointed out that Roberts college and the American mis sions In the near E ast have given us a preponderant share, if not a monop oly, of public-spirited men, many of them natives of this, section of the world who consequently have first-hnnd knowledge of these regions. Incidentally, from the near E ast, America could promote railroad con struction w ithout offense to the Brit ish, and could assist in that most vex atious problem of the day, the restora* tion of Russia, the blind giant among nations, the Grey booklet says. ‘I» ' < ' I * \ " «8 mmK'-''T & i JRHL■ail ) i v Any mau who hasn’t a good opinion of himself Is inw ardly deformed.

YOUNG MAN WAS INTERESTED Weekly HeaiLii Talks The Many Mysteries of Nature BY L. VV. BOWtER, II. D. You can take an onion seed atid a pansy oeeil, ami plant them side by side in the same spot of ground. In one case, you get an cniou, with its peculiarly strong odor, and in the other you get a flower of rare beauty. You can plant a poppy seed and get opium (a dangerous, habit-forming drug), or you can plant a rhubarb seed and igei something that helps constipation. Xe scientist, living or dead, can explain these mysteries of Nature. Behind the invisible Jife germ in each seed is hidden the deep ■secret that nobody understands. Every- "thing growing out of the ground seems in tended for some use in establishing natui-il •conditions. Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, X. I , Jong since found out what is naturally best for women’s diseases. He learned‘it all through treating thousands of cases. The iresult of his studies was a medicine called •Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. This medicine is made of vegetable growths tbatr mature surely intended for backaciie, head- iache, weakening drains, bearing-down ■pains, periodica! irregularities, pelvic in- Aimmationyl and for the many disorders common to women in all ages of life. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is made of lady’s slipper root, bla’ck cohosh root, uni corn root, blue cohosh root and Oregon 'grape root. Women ’.vho take this stand- .-ard remedy know that in Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription they are getting a ■ safe woman’s tonic so gou'd that druggists • everywhere sell it. Favorite Prescription should have the lull confidence of every woman in America • because it contains no alcohol and no nar- • eotic. Dr. Pierce knew, when he first -. made this standard medicine, that whisky -. and morphine are injurious, and so he has !always kept them out of his remedies. Send IOo to Dr. Pierce’s Invalids’ Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., for trial pkg. of tablets. Not Understanding, Fellow Passenger of "Literary Workers" Imagined That He Scented Romance. Iiidinn:!

This result, accompanied by corresponding savings of barley, ’bats, rye and other grains, Is shown by reports from 33 grain states to the U. S. Food Adm inistration. O ther states, although not prepared to furnish defi nite figures of conservation in the - grain fields, report greatly reduced harvest losses. T his rural food saving achievement, : accomplished in scarcely six m onths' , time, was in direct response to re quests by the Food A dm inistration, ■ which asked farm ers and thresherm en to reduce harvest losses from about 8% per cent.—the estim ated average In norm al times—to the low est possl- ; ble minimum. Country grain thresh ing committees carried into every grain growing eitmmunity the official recommendations for accom plishing the results desired. In num erous instances drivers of racks with leaky bottom s were 'sent from the fields to repair th eir equip m ent and frequently bad order thresh ing machines w ere stopped until the cause of w aste w as removed. E ut in proportion • the num ber of persons engaged in gathering the nation’s grain crop, cases of compulsion w ere com paratively rare. T he Food Adminis tration freely attributes the success of the grain threshiug cam paign to pa- : triotlc service by farm ers, thresher- ' men and their crews. Incidentally grain growers of the United States are many m illions of dollars “in pocket’’ as a result of the grain sa-ved. 1 * 1 1m i I m m ''W T wSf.rMsA,.. Ji m I Il '!'ii'i CovyrteMitio byR .J .

Democratic free trade is like Davy Crockett’s coon trap,—it catches the unfortuuate consumer-producer coming and going. A t Turin, Italy, thousands ol persons greeted President Wilson with the cry: Viva Wilson, Goo of Peace.” Must have reminded him of the 1916 campaign and “ thank God for Wilson: He kept Us Out of War. In the absence of any review of the troops which fought in tire present war, it might be well to have a grand review of the deserv ing Democrats who held civilian jobs. It would take a couple- ol weeks for them to march through Washington a dozen abreast. It seems harder for a Democratic cabinet member to live in Wash ington on §12,000 a year, than for a high private in the rear ranks to worry along on §30 a month ana board. The fellow who started the story that the Kaiser had committed bu . icide and George U reel had resign- ned probably wanted to discourage people by getting up expectations that would prove entirely too good to be true, ' Searching for the Horth Pole af ter the war is over will not be com parable as ah uncertain adventure with trying to discover a dollar hidden around somewhere chat the Democratic office holders didn’t get hold of and spend a couple ol times.

The writer has been a great ad mirer of President Wilson, and ii may not be out of place to say that be supported him twice for t-be presidency; but all who believe in the separation of church and state must deplore the fact that the Pre sideht seems to graut Epecial - lav ors to the Catholic Church, which is the most powerful autocracy. on the face of the earth. The recent visit of the Presidem to the pops lends color to the story from which we quote. Il one may judge by. the accounts in the daily papers the most important funci- ion in connection with the Presi dent’s visit to Borne was his recep tion at the Vatican. King Emman uel occupies an obscure place in the dailies, teu lines being tht space given him m the Eews and Observer, while the pope is made the center of interest. 'The front page of the News and Observer Snnday morning was adorned by the faces of the pope and the Presi dent, but the king, of whom we thought our president was the hon ored guest, was nowhere to be seen. The President was received in the “Throne Boom” and why nod Was he not paying his respects to one who claims to be the temporal ruler of the world? .And was not. this official visit an acknowledg ment of that claim? The camouflage of receiving a delegation from the Protestants in Borne, which is mentioned in four words in the Sonday editions of the papers, is so thin aB to be invisible and does not lessen the indignity offered to eighty per. cent of the American people. These Protes- tants do not claim any temporal authority, and therefore, a visit from them could have no official ignilicance. They visited the President while he visited the pope. When Ex President Boose velt was iu Bome some years ago he called on a Methodist preacher, but refused to visit the pope. The President certainly did not help matters by accepting a §40, 000 gift from the pope and another gilt from the “Papel Secretary of State.” The whole unfortunate affair will be exploited by Bome lor all it’s worth. We are boasting that we have thrown off the yoke of autocracy and have brought in the good day of world democracy; but if the statements set out in the article Uom which we quote are facts, the religious press had just as well get ready for a titanic etruggle, to save our country from spiritual autocra cy, and the first of the year 1919 is a good time to begin. No aid can be expected from the daily pa pers, as they offer no word of cri ticism, but on the other hand, seem to lend approval Dy the prominent place they give to this part of the visit. It will not be forgotten that some of these dailies berated the Becorder because it took the ground that the famous camp pastor order was a blow at religious liberty, and a discrimination in favor of the Ca tholics. We wonder what these dailies will say now.—Biblical Re- corder. Remedy For Pneumonia. A remedy for pneumonia has been sent out from the office of the sur geon general of the United States at Washington, D. G., which is said by the government authorities to be an absolute cnre.- Theformulahasbeen sent to all -iospitals. to military camps and to all government officers. Tests are declared to have proven its efficien cy. The remedy is so simple that all afflicted can use i’. Here is what the government advises: “Saturate a ball of cotton as large as a one-inch marble with spirits of alcohol; add tnree drops of chloro form to each ball of cotton. Place, it between the patient’s teeth. Let patient inhale the fumes for 15 min utes, then rest 15 minutes or longer, if needed. Then inhale again fifteen minutes and repeat the operation as directed 24 times.” The result will be that the lungs will expand to their normal condi tion; In 24 hours the patient is out of danger. Change cotton often. It ought to be changed twice in fifteen minutes. • Getting Rid Of Colds.. ' The easiest and quickest way .to get rid of a coid is to take Chamberlain’s Cougb Remedy. This preparation has been in use for many years and its value fully proven. No m atter what remedy you use, however, care must be taken not to con tract a second cold before you have recov ered/from the first one, and there is ser ious danger of this. A m an of middle age or older should go to bed and stay in bed until fully recovered. It is better to stay in bed three days at the start than three' weeks later on. I ProHteeFs Arguments. Novelist W. B. Trites was talk in'about war prices in France. ’ “French war prices are very Mgb pqws” he^ said. “A hai costs 70 cents a pound. A pound oi butter costs Si 25. It’s all pro fiteeriog, of course—there is no real dearth—and the argumeuts of the French profiteers are quaint “ Why are apples so high?” usked a fruit dealer in Nice last winter. “Because they’re Bcarce, sir, said he. “But,” said I, “the papers an nounced that the apple crop was enormous, and the apples were rot ting on the trees.” “Yes, that’s why they are scarce,” said he. “It didn’t pay to pick them.—Exchange.

S.” The Democratic politicians who promised to eliminate the high cost of living miy Iind both discomfiture and encofiragement in the present price of eggs. They are high enough to justify the use of them on some of these orators when they again take the stump, but too high to war rant the expense involved in that procedure.—Ex. The Gooleemee people were made happy a few days ago, when the Er vin mills paid to their employees a bonus of several thousand dollarB Besides their regular pay, an annual bonus is given every employee which, goes far toward bringing employer and employee together. This is a good thing, and many mills and fac tories throughout the country have adopted this plan. , “TV. S.

S. S.” A Washington correspondent says the next Congress will not dare probe the waste and dishonesty in connection with with war expendi tures because many of the ofienders are Republicans. If they are, go after them and show them up. That would be an exceedingly crooked reason for not probing things to the . bottom, and it is probable that some politicians sire depending too much on that argument for the protection they hope t6 receive.—Ex.

Let me know as soon as you receive the packages so I will know that they got through safely. I received a letter from Fred today, the first time I have heard from him since we have been over. He is well, says he will soon get a 7-day leave and hopes to come to Paris and will see me. I received several cards from you while at Jacksonville and was glad to get them. I show them to the French people that I know here. They are crazy about pic tures of America. The folder of Jackson ville was especially good and has a ten dency to make us homesick. I showed it to the boys at the table tbe other day and they all wanted to go home a t once. Anything from America looks good to us; we read papers a month old with just as much interest as if the day they are pub lished. I notice what you say about business conditions and I am anxious to get back uarly this spring but don’t have any idea just when. Would like to, not later than April. I am glad you received my cable all right. I received the Christmas box this week and thank you much for all the things. I had already been able to get knit gloves but did not know it when I wrote you. Thank Fuller for his box and tell him I am enjoying them. This leaves me well so I hope it finds you all the same. I am enclosing a list of the souvenirs. They are all unloaded.

We’ve made an awful lot of tracks over an awful lot of ground. And some minor jobs this side of bell have never yet been found. We’ve toiled in rain and scorching sun, in mud and driving rain. Till all our eyes and ears and limbs were yelling out in pain. But there is ope consolation in this life of which I tel!. 'Tis when we die we're bound for Heaven for we've done our hitch in hell. We've buiit many miles of trenches over here in shell-scarred France, We've stretched many miles of barbed . wire to stop the Hun’s advance. We’ve washed a million mess kits and peeled a miliioO spuds, We’ve rolled a million blanket rolls and carried them thru rain and mud. And when the grind was at tts worst there was never a kick or yell. For the rest will come in heaven, we’ve earned it here in hell. We've passed through many sleepless nights as Jerry had our number. Yas1 you can I^etyoui life we prayed for rain so he wouldn’t disturb our slum ber. We never fancied the moon very much cause he was too closely allied to the Dutch, Silvery moonbeams are oftentim es cherry but to us it m eans a card from Jerry, So when our work on earth i 3 done our friends can surely tell. They've gone to their reward in Heaven for they’ve had their hitch in hell. The G. I, Cans we often cursed they don’t mix well with bully beef We've damned Jerry's gust of gas that caused us so much grief. We've had the cooties fall and plenty and scratched till we were sore. And often we've got rid of them we’d al ways find some more, WjtU all these things to get our goat we've never dared to tell. Just how we got square with Je>ry, when we m et a t S t Meheil. Now when taps are sounded for us all and we are free from wordly caies, When we form our last parade on Heav en's shining stairs, When tbe angels welcome us and the harps begin to play, We’li hear a voice like thunder shout the orders cf the day, "Open wide the Pearly Gates,” St. Peter then will yell Admit the 56th Pioneers for they've done their hitch in hell.

His home is at Advance Davie county, His name is: French and while in France the natives persisted in call ing him Monsieur Bowco while he calls it in the American fashion as jhst plain Beekam.Private Beauchamp’s experience as a fighter was limited to a few days of active out and at ’em style as on September 29th, when the 30th hit the Hindenburg line and cracked it. be was hit by a piece of shrapnel in the left leg not.many minutes af ter he had jumped over the top to get in his work. He lay the most of that historic day in a shell hole and finally received attention, being car ried from a nospital in Francp to American base hospital number 204 at Hursley, near Winchester, Eng land. Private Beauchamp returned to America on. the Leviathan December 16th. He is convalescing at Hot Springs and expects soon to be re leased from service as his wounds are healed to all extent. In talking of the charge against the Hinden- burg line he stated that the sut and smoke from the intensive barrage laid down by the AHiesand the coun ter barrage of the Germans . that it was mostly guess work out there in No Man’s land-but that the Yanks were there when it came to guessing first and getting the Germans trap ped in their dugouts and come out a scootin’ shouting “Kamerad ” Speaking of the "Y” Private Beau champ stated that no workers of any organization visited his command while in the trenches with the Bel gians and the British but that trucks would occasionally come in the rear of the lines and the men were thus; able to keep fairly well supplied with tobacco and supplies About ten miles back of the line, in the rest area was a “Y” hut which was al ways well attended and where ample provisions were made for writing and reading. Cigarettes and tobacco was sold reasonably at the canteen but the prices of other commodities ranged pretty high. The “Y” workers whom he met at these huts back of the lines and while in the hospitals at Rouen and Hurslev all treated the men fine and commanded their respect. uYf. S.

It can be said broadly tbat moat human ilia begin in the stomach and end in the stomach. Good digestion means good health, and poor digestion means bad health. The minute your stomach fails to properly dispose of the food you eat, trou bles begin to crop out in various forms. Indigestion and dycpepsia are the Common est forms, but thin, impure blood, head aches, backaches, pimples, blotches, dizzi ness, belching, coated tongue, weakness, poor appetite, sleeplessness, coughs, colds and bronchitis are almost as common. There is but one way to have good health, and that is to put and keep youT stomach in good order This is easy to do if-you take Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov ery. It ie a wonderful tonic and blood purifier, and is so safe to take, for it is made of roots and herbs. Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., stands behind this stand ard medicine, and it is good to knew that so distinguished a physician is proud to have bis name identified with it. When you take Gkilden Medical Discovery, you are getting the benefit of the experience of a doctor whose reputation goes all arr.und the earth. Still more, you get a temper ance medicine that Contains not a drop of alcphol of narcotic of any kind. Long ago Dr. Pierce combined certain valuable vege table ingredients—without the use of alco hol—Co that these remedies always have been strictly temperance medicines. If piles are torturing you, get and use Pierce’s Anodyne Pile Ointment. The quick relief it gives is hard to believe until you try it. If constipated Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets should be taken while using Anodyne Pile Ointment. Few ,in deed are the cases which these splendid remedies will not relieve and usually over come. They are so good that nearly every drue store has them for sale. .

I rem em ber th at her dress was like the color of its fireweed blos soms and th at the blug of its slcy w as in her eyes and the yellow of the sun light In her h air and the red of its clover In h er cheeks. I rem em ber how the August breezes played w ith her hair, flinging its golden curving strands about her neck and shoulders so that it touched m y face, now and then, as w e w alked! Somehow the rustle of her dress started a strange vibration in my spirit. I p u t my arm around her w aist and she put her arm around m ine as we ran along. A curious feel ing cam e over me. I stopped and loosed my arm. “It’s very w arm !” I said as I picked a stalk of fireweed. W hat w as there about the girl which so thrilled me w ith happiness? She turned aw ay and felt the rib bon by which her h air w as gathered a t the back of her head. A fter a mom ent of silence I ven tured : “I guess you’ve never fallen In love.” “Yes, I have.” “W ho with?” ' I don’t think I dare tell you,” she answered, slowly, looking down as she walked. “I’ll tell you who I love If you wish,” I said. “Who?” “You.” I w hispered the w ord and w as afraid she would laugh a t me, but she didn’t. W e stopped and listened to the song of a bird—I do not rem em ber w hat bird it w as—and then she w hispered: “W ill you love me always and for ever?” “Yes,” I answ ered in the careless way of youth. She stopped and looked into my eyes and I looked into hers. ' “May I kiss you?” I asked, and afraid, with cheeks burning. She turned aw ay and answ ered: “I guess you can if you w ant to.” Now I seem to be in Aladdin’s tow er and to see her standing so red .and graceful and Innocent in the sunlight, and th at strange fire kindled by our kisses w arm s my blood again. T hat night I heard a w hispered con ference below after I had gone up stairs. I knew th at som ething w as coming and wondered w hat it m ight IVA “Will You Love Me Always and For ever?” be. Soon Uncle Peabody cam e up to. our little room looking highly serious. I sat, half undressed and rath er fear ful, looking into his face.. As I think of the im m aculate soul of the boy, I feel a touch of pathos In th at scene. I think th at he felt It, for I rem em ber that his w hisper trem bled a little as he began to tell m e why m en are strong and women are beautiful and given In m arriage, “You’ll be falling in love one o' these days.” he said. “It's natural ye should. You rem em ber Bovin’ K ate?” he asked by and by. “Yes,” I answ ered. “Some day when you’re a little older- r il tell ye her story an’ you’ll see w hat happens when men an’ women break the law o’ God. H ere’s Mr. W right’s letter. A unt Deel asked m e to give it to you to keep. You’re old enough now an’ you’ll be goin’ aw ay to school before lcng, I guess.” I took the letter and read again the superscription on its envelope: “To M aster B arton B aynes: (To be opened when he leaves home to go to school).” I p u t it aw ay in the pine box w ith leather hinges on its cover which Uncle Peabody had m ade for mo and wondered again w hat it w as all about, and again th at night I broke camp and moved further into the w orld over the silent trails of knowledge. Uncle Peabody w ent aw ay fo r a few days after the harvesting. H e had gone afoot, I knew not where. H e returned one afternoon In a buggy w ith the great M ichael H acket of the Canton academy. H acket w as a big, brawny, red-haired, kindly Irishm an w ith a m erry h eart and tongue, the latter having a touch of the brogue of the green isie which he had never seen, for he had been born In M assachusetts and had got his education in H arvard. H e w as then a m an of forty. “You’re coming to m e this fall,” he said as he put his hand on m y arm and gave me a little shake. “L a d ! you’ve got a pair of shoulders! Ye shall live In m y house an’ help w ith the chores if ye wish to.” “T hat’ll be grand,” said Uncle Pea body, but, as to myself, ju st then, I knew not w hat to think of it. [END OF BOOK ONE.] BOOK TWO Which Is the Story of the Prin cipal fitn e s s . CHAPTER VIII. In Which I Meet Other Great Men. It w as a sunny day late in Septem ber on w hich A unt Deel and Uncle Pea body took m e and my little pine chest w ith all m y treasures in it to the vil lage w here I w as to go to school and live w ith the fam ily of M r. Micha’el H acket, the schoolm aster. I rem em ber tlie sad excitem ent of th at ride to the village and all the words of advice and counsel spoken by m y aunt. I rem em ber looking in vain for Sally as we passed the Dunkelbergs*. I re m em ber my growing loneliness as the day w ore on and how A unt Deel stood silently buttoning m y coat, w ith tears rolling down her cheeks while I leaned back upon tie gate in front of the H acket house, on Ashery lane, try in g to act like a m an and rather asham ed of m y poor success. U ndo Peabody stood surveying the sky in silence w ith his back tow ard us. H e turned and nervously blew out "his breath. H is lips trem bled a little a*r he said: ‘I dmrno b u t w hat it’s goln' to rain.” I watched them as they w alked to the tavern sheds, both looking down at the ground and going rather un steadily. Oh, the look of th a t beloved p air as they w alked aw ay from m e !__ the look of their leaning h eads! T heir silence and the sound of their foot steps ace, somehow, a p art of the pic ture w hich has hung all these years in m y memory. Sally D unkelberg and her m other cam e along and' said th at they w ere glad I had come to school. I could not talk to them, and seeing m y trouble they w ent on, Sally waving her hand to m e ais they turned the com er below. I felt asham ed of m yself. Suddenly I heard the door open behind m e and the voice of Mr. Hacket'. “B art,” he called, ‘T v e a friend iiere w ho h as PomethiDg to say to yon Come In.” ' I turned and w ent Into the house. “Away w ith sadness—laddie buck!” he exclaimed as he took his violin from its case while I sa t wiping my eyes. Away with sadness! She often raps a t m y door, and while I try not to be rude, I alw ays pretend to be very busy. Ju st a light w ord o’ recognition by way o’ common politeness! Then laugh, if ye can an’ do it quickly, lad, an’ she w ill pass on." T he last w ords w ere spoken In a w hisper, w ith one hand on m y breast. H e turned the strings and played the “Fisher's H ornpipe.” W hat h. rom p of m erry m usic filled the house! I had never heard the like and w as soon sm iling a t him as he played. H is bow and fingers Hew in the w ild frolic of the “Devil’s D ream .’’ I t led m e out of m y sadness into a w orld all new to me. "Now, God bless your soul, boy!” he exclaimed, by and by, as he p u t down his instrum ent. “W e shall have a good tim e together—th a t w e will. N ot a stroke o’ w ork this day I Come, I have a guide here th a t will tak e u s down to the land o’ the fairies.” Then w ith his m icroscope he showed me Into the w onder w orld of littleness of w hich ,I had no knowledge. “The m icroscope is like the a rt o’ the teacher,” he said. “I’ve know n a good teacher to take a brain no bigger than a fly’s foot an’ m ake it visible to the naked eye.” One of the children, of w hich there w ere four in the H acket home, called us to supper. M rs. H acket, a stout woman w ith a red and kindly face, sa t a t one end of the table, and betw een them w ere the children—M ary, a pret ty daughter of seventeen y ears; Mag gie, a six-year-old; R uth, a delicate girl of seven, a*id John, a noisy, red faced boy of five. T he chairs w ere of plain wood—like the kitchen chairs of today. In th e m id d le o f th e ta b le w a s an em pty one—painted green. Before he sat down M r. H acket p u t his hand on the back of this chair and sa id : “A m erry h eart to you, M ichael H enry.” I w ondered a t the m eaning of this, but dared not -to ask. T he oldest daughter acted as a kind of m oderator w ith ‘lie others. “M ary is th e constable of this house, w ith pow er to arre st and hale into court for undue haste or rebellion or Im politeness,” M r. H acket explained, “I believe th a t Sally D pnkeIberg Is your friend,” he said to m e presently. “Yes, sir,’’ I answ ered. “A fine slip of a girl th a t and a born scholar. I saw you look a t h er as the. P ersian looks a t the rising sun.” I blushed and M ary and her m other and th e boy John looked a t m e and laughed. “P uer pulcherrlm e!” M r. H acket exclaim ed w ith a kindly smile. Uncle Peabody would have called it a “stout snag.” Th~ schoolm aster had hauled It out of his brain very deftly and chucked it down, before m e in a kind of challenge. “W hat does th a t m ean?” I asked. ’ “You shall know In a week, m y son," he answered. “I shall p u t you, into the L atin class W ednesday morning, and God help you to like It as w ell as you like Sally.” • Again they laughed and again I blushed. “Hold up yer head, m y brave lad,” he w ent on. “Ye’ve a perfect right to like Sally if ye’ve a h eart to. “A lad in his ’teens jWill never know beans If he hasn't an eye for the girls.” I t w as a’ m erry supper, and w hen it ended M r. H acket rose and took the green chair from the table, exclaim ing : “M ichael H enry, God bless you!" Then he kissed his w ife and sa id : “Maggie, you wild rose of E rin ! Tve been all day in the study. . I m ust take a w alk or I shall get an exalted abdo men. One is badly beaten in the race o’ life when his abdom en gets ahead of his toes. Children, keep our young friend happy here until I come back, and m ind you, don’t forget the good fellow Jn the green chair.” M ary helped her m other w ith the fishes, while I sa t w ith a book by the tireside. Soon M rs. H adcet and the Children cam e and sa t down w ith me. “L et’s play backgammon,” M ary pro posed. “I don’t w ant to,” said John. “Don’t forget M ichael H enry,” she rem inded. “W ho is M ichael H enry?” I asked. “Sure, he’s the boy th a t has never been born,” said Mrs. H acket. “H a w as to be the biggest and noblest of them —kind an’ helpful an’ cheery hearted an’ beloved o’ God above all the others. W e try to live up to him.” H e seemed to me a very strange and w onderful creature—this invisible oc cupant of Qie green chair. I know now w hat I knew not then th at M ichael H enry w as the spirit of their hom e—an ideal of w hich the em pty green chair w as a constant re m inder. W e played backgam m on and “old m aid” and “everlasting” until Mr. H acket returned. T he sealed envelope which Mr. W righ.t had .left a t our home, a long tim e before th a t day, w as in m y pocket. A t last the hour bad come when I could open it and read the m essage of w hich I had Aougbt m uch and w ith a growing interest. I rose and said th a t I should like to go to m y room. Mr. H acket lighted a candle and took me upstairs to a little room w here m y chest had been deposited. T here w ere In th e room B bed, a chair, a p o rtrait of N apoleon B onaparte and a sm all table on w hich w ere a dictionary, a B ible and a num ber of schoolbooks. “T hese w ere M ary’s books,” said M t. H acket. “I told your uncle th a t ye could use them an’ welcome." I sat down and opened the sealed envelope w ith trem bling hands and found. In it this brief n o te: “D ear P a rtn e r: I w ant you to ask the wisest- m an you know to explain these w ords to you. I suggest th a t you com m it them to m em ory and think often of th eir m eaning.

T he sheriff said th a t he tried to ru n aw ay w hen he saw ’em coming.” W hat w as the m eaning of this? W hat had Am os G rim shaw been do ing? I trem bled a s I got back into bed—I cannot even now explain why, but long ago I gave up trying to fathom the depths of the hum an spirit w ith an infinite sea beneath it crossed by subtle tides and currents. W e see only the straw s on the surface. I w as up a t daylight and M r. H acket cam e to my door w hile I w as dressing. “A m erry day to y o u !” he exclaim ed. “I’ll aw ait you below and introduce you to the humbift herds and flocks of a schoolm aster.” I "went w ith him w hile he fed his chickens and tw e ' sm all shotes. I m ilked th e cow fi»r him, and together w e drove h er back to the pasture.

W e sa t down a t the table w ith the fam ily and I drew out m y letter from the senator and ff.'ve It to M r. H acket to read. “T he senator! God prosper him ! I heard th at he cam e on the P lattsburg stage last night,” be said as he began the rea'ding—an announcem ent which caused m e and .th e children to clap our hands with. joy. ’ M r. H acket thoughtfully repeated the w ords from Job w ith a m ost im pressive intonation. H e passed the le tte r back to m e arid said: “All tru e!

INCREASE POULTRY AND PGGS Few Essential Things Are to Be Con stantly in Mind—Dispose of Surplus Cockerels. {'.Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) The general features of poultry husbandry, if adhered to by farm ers nnd’ farm ers’ wives, by city dwellers who have enough sj^ce to keep a few hens, and by poultry specialists of the country will result in a rem arkable Increase of poultry and egg produc tion. Only a few essential things are to be constantly borne in mind. First in this list, perhaps, should come care- ful selection of breeding sto;k, in or d er to reproduce a larger percentage of good types of profitable producers. N *xt to th at in im portance is early hatching. In order th at pullets may be sufficiently m ature to become, good fall and w inter layers, the chicks must be out of the nest as -early as possible. F o r a t least tw o weeks after the chicks are hatched m other hens should be confined to brood coops to prevent fatality to the brood from ex posure to w et and other dangers. From the tim e the chicks are old enough to be im mune from the dan gers of w et grass and the like free range is of first im portance for both growing stock and layers. Free range, in the first place, stim ulates growth. It also stim ulates egg pro- [ ductlon, and it reduces very m ateri ally the quantity of dry feed neces sary to keep the flock in condition. A nother m atter of prim e impor tance is the productidn of infertile eggs. As soon as the breeding season is over every poultry keeper, whethei general farm er, specialist or citj dweller, should see th at the hens are kept separate from the cocks. If this practice is followed it will result in th e saving of millions of eggs thal would otherwise become spoiled, ei th er in the hands of the producer 01 before reaching the consumer. W hen the chicks have reached a m arketable age care should be exer cised to dispose prom ptly of all sur plus cockerels in order to conserve feed. As early as possible such pul lets and hens as are not profitable producers should be culled. out and sold. The greatest of care should be exercised to see tliat profitable pul lets are kept as egg producers. Throughout the year care should be exercised to prevent the marketing of all profitable hens of the general purpose class. H ens of this ' kind M three brands seated in air-tight packages; Easy to find it is on sale everywhere. . Look for. ask for. be sure to set WRiGLEYS The . Greatest Name in GooJy-Land Flock of Chickens Like Tnis W ill Pay should never he sold until the end oi their second year, and hens or Si( M editerranean or egg class should not be sold until the end of their third laying yejir. A careful check should be kept, however, on hens, and everj individual th at does not show herseli a profitable producer should be sold for m eat. BEST FEED FOR LAYING HENS M ixture of Cracked Corn, O ats and Barley Is Recommended— Exer cise Is Im portant. ■Prepared by the United States Depart . ment of Agriculture.) . A good m ixture for laying hens Is four p arts ■ each of cracked corn and oats and one p art barley or w heat, ii avatlnftte, which should be scattered in the litter. Provide four or five inches of good, clean litter.' A dry m ash composed of equal parte of cornmeal, bran, middlings, grounc oats and beef scrap should be kept In hoppers to w hich the fowls have ac cess a t all tim es. Plenty of exercise increases the eg^ yield. Cabbages, mangels, sprouted oats, cut clover and cut alralfa make ex cellent green feed for poultry. W lien w et m ashes are fed be sure th at they are crumbly ««nd not sticky. GOOD QUALITIES OF ROOSTER More A pt to Be Carried to Females Than Males— Hens Always Take A fter JSire.

In other words, if we had paid $13.13, we would have made Ho profit Or, if we had received a quarter of a cent per pound less for dressed beef we would have made no profit. It is doubtful whether any other business is run on so close a margin of profit. This is bringing the producer and the consumer pretty close together—which should be the , object of any industry turning raw material into a useful form. This rem arkable showing is due to enormous volume, perfected facilities (packing plants strategically located, branch houses, refrigerator cars, etc.), and an arm y of m en and wom en chosen and trained to do their special work. This, and m any other points of interest, are found'in the Sw ift & Company Year Book for 1919, just published which is brought out for the public as well as for the 25,000 Swift & Company shareholders.

The comic valentiDe, which was painfully ugly and coarse, and which flourished very broadly at one timet has now almost entirely passed away, at least in its cruder forms. It used to be the greatest happiness of the schoolboy’s life to purchase a very large assortment of these wretched comics and leave them on the front doorstep of his school teacher, male or female. Then when he had left a few comics on the steps of- the village con stable and paid his respects in simitar fashion to the Sunday school superin tendent he felt that St. Valentine's eve had been well spent. The joy of St. Valentine’s day has diminished greatly since the practice of throwing valen tines on the doorstep, ringing the bell and running, gave place to the less ex citing method of mail delivery. But In spite of up-to-date interference with the valentine spirit SL Valen tine's day always will hold its own. The most famous valentine verse ever written is still being attached to home-, made valentines In painfully neat chil dren’s handwriting in various happy outlying districts where boys and girls have real fun without spending much money for valentines or anything else. Boses are as red as ever and violets are still true blue in the joyous land of boy and girl love affairs where reigns the good St. Valentine. EFFECTIVE WORK “Hey! You ain’t got 110 address on that valentine.” “I know it. I don’t want her to know who sent it an’ she knows my handwritin’.” Custom Will' Not Down. Custom has. decreed that on SL Val entine’s day persons of the opposite sex should exchange , affectionate mis. sives, and custom is more potent than any other authority known to man.

' ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF SUPPUES SENT Y. M. C-.-A. Cost of Sweets and Smotes for One Month Reaches Staggering Fig- Ure--Armistice Didn’t End Smoking on Any Front New York, Jan. '...—Almost $4,000,- 000 worth of smokes, sweets, sporting goods, chewing gum and other com modities was shipped to France during the month of November by the Army and Navy Y. M. C. A., for the use of the American Exiieditionary Forces. A statement to this effect has just been issued by the National War Council and tends to demonstrate that the demand for supplies of this char acter has not been reduced by the fact that hostilities have ceased. Tn exact figures the value of the supplies shipped to Franco was $3,- 895,908 and each month’s auota will ap proximate this total until the forces overseas have been materially reduced by demobilization. The demand for tobacco, cigars and cigarettes has not diminished since the armistice was signed, as witness the fact that $1,351,000 of the total amount went for the purchase of the weed In some form. In the ship ments were 464,911 pounds of tobacco, 198,065,320 cigarettes and 99,700 ci gars. As for confectionery, there were 213,800 pounds of hard candy, 175,915 pounds of chocolates and 329,280 pack ages of cough drops, not to mention 537,600 tins 'of jams and 6,541,300 pounds of sugar. The chewing gum conignments totaled 6,100,000 packages —enough to load every slot machine in the United States. Y.M.C. A. SECRETARY HONORED FOR BRAVERY Brooklyn Man Is Awarded Croix de Querre by Commander of Polish Forces A ID J I Paris, Dee. 11.—“For heroic and un tiring work for the soldiers while un der fire,” Stanley Modra, of 2123 Ca- ton avenue, Brooklyn, a Y. M. C. A. secretary, has just received the Croix de Guerre from General Haller, com mander-in-chief of the Polish army, and has been mentioned in the offi cial citations. He is the third Y. M. C. A. man thus honored for conspicu ous bravery. Modra has been with the Polish forces continuously since his arrival In France five montihs ago, and has given many notable exhibitions of gal lantry and fidelity to duty. During the last days of the hostilities he served with the First division in the Vosges, in charge; of a hut in a narrow valley between the first and second line trenches. From this hut he made trip after trip, carrying supplies to the men at the most advanced posts, and w * under fire repeatedly. When the fighting was at its heavi est Modira and the men associated with him In Y work continued their minis trations to the soldiers, serving cocoa, cakes, when the men were in positioi to receive them, and cigarettes. This service contributed much to the high morale of the troops and won not only the praise of the officers but the last ing gratitude of the men. DR. R. 0.

He lived a life so abundant, so boundless aud s > in tense the dreamless sleep without awakening:, seems utterly foreign to his nature. He a’as never in repose bub always in action. Froni the time he entereli politics at the age uf 23 until the last days of hit- Iiie he was a disturber of the peace of men. H ecoald not tolerate dull time. H ew aslbrever tnrniug up something to 1 break the even tenor of the world’s way. He tore his party into fragments. Thej forgave him. They had to, for he was stronger than his party. He elected Wilson, the first time, be cause he didn’t like the way the Convention treated him when Tait received his second nomination. He was paving the way for the no mination in 1920, and if he had lived would probably have secured it, for his power over his party leaders seemed irresistible. He was born in New York C ity.ol a family in comfortable circumstan ces. H e graduated at H ar vard and came out a rather frail young man. H e derermined to develop his physical strength, and set to work with this end in view. He succeeded. “ The strenuous life” ol which he was an ardent exponent and illustration was hi* through the three and a half de cades he lived after the feeble stage he had passed. He was all kinds of a man. A hunter, natu ralist, ranchman, explorer, soldier, historian, statesmen and master politician. H is hungry mind de voured the best literature, and was a great storehouse of useful and accurate knowledge. W hilt he was not an orator he always spoke in vigorous fashion, and no body7 slept while he was speaking. He was one of our greatest Arner icans and his name >vill live forev er. Col. Eoosevelt had his faults and they were many and grave He was an egotist of unlimited ca pacity. His conceit was colossal. His ambition Was boundless. His hatred of rivals in His pathway was intense. H is bitterness to ward President Wilson darkened his last days. E ut with all his faults, he sincerely loved his coun try, and in the awful crisis thru it happily passed, he stood true and strong. His contribution to the glory of America was a vast one, and among the deathless names that will forever illumine the pages ot American history that of Theo dore JRoosevelt will stand among the first.—Charity and Children.

But somehow your mind gets to wandering along a conversatioa you’d had that da> and you live over in the minutesi detail exactly the things you sain aud the things the other fellow said. Then you’re tbiuking aboui things at the office, something you did today something you’re goiny to do tomorrow. Yon remember rhat, yon must not think of busi ness after you go to bed, and yon IOSH about a hit. A nr-tn along rhi ’.treet Wbistliug that lazy “ Husb a bv Ma Baby’’ lrom the Missouri Waltz, and you’re remembering the occasions on which you havt lanced to that particular piece o: music, one especially happy occaB ion when yon and your partner wished the lazy waltz would never cease. Yon hear something in the hall M aybeit is a cat, maybe it is a mouse, but it Eouuds like a person making their way cautiously along the passage and to yonr door. Foi fifteen minutes you argue with yourself. W hat aoes it matter il the door is not locked? There’s no use to get up in the cold to lock it At last you do get up and look it. You are scarcely back in bed be fore you remember that yoit-.ioggot so wiud your watch. Yoa get up and go across the room to th dressing table and wind youi watch. By the time yoa’re back in bed you’re ieetare cold, and you never coaid sleep with your ieei cold. The traffic on the street below becomes less noisy and yon realize with a restless pang that it is growing late. A disagreeable clock downstairs somewhere strikes occasionally,'reminding yon' that it is late. And you remember sad denly a bill you mast pay tomor. row. ThenwithuupleaBantaccar ateness all of your bills range themselves before your mind’s eye In the Ioug night watches one’s mind is, cleaiest, As you lie in bed quietly, your body still, your mind works with peculiar clear ness. Yrou call to mind a numbet of bills that you owe, and yoa re member that yonr automobile must have a new tire and that there’s a spark ping that doesn’t work as it should. You remember with un pleasant distinctness that the heels ou your shoeB are beginning to run over and most be mended at once. You remember that yonr liberty bond is falling due. This will never do, you can never sleep il you let your financial worries get the upper hand like that. You mast think of something pleasant. Then, from yonr store of prec ions remembrances, yoa select the most precious remembrance of all, a remembrance that long, weary miles and long, dreary yeara can never steal away from yon. You live again a Jane evening when the moon iB a glory to behold. You sit on the Btepa of the front porch away down home and talk with the best pal a fellow ever had of the sweet years that stretch ahead for yon two together. But the Fates took yoar pal away and the years have intervened. And there you lie, staring at the dim ceiling with sleepless eyeB and an aching heart! Dead dreams, dead loves, lost hopes are bitter company on sleepless nights. You toss aside the pillows, lie on your back with yonr arms by your sides and breathe deeply, just like the book urged sleepless folks to do. But the instaat sleep prom ised still evades you. You open your I-Jt-S wild sit up in bed with a start. The crouching figure of a man can lie seen at the loot, of the bed. You lie down with relief when you see it is your coat about to fall from a chair. The disagree able clock down stairs striked two. An automobile stops in front of yonr h<use. You seem to hear a' man cross the sidewalk, up the walk to the house and there stop in exasperating nncertainity. You »ait aud the only sound is a low ■uurinur of voices in front of the iouse. Just as you are ready to • uvestitfiite, the engine whirrs a no oegins steady beat and yoa realize c:;at some man’s engine has choked down. By this time you knov. uat, yoa are. ready nervous; thai ou must calm yourselt and sleep >r you will go to your work a ■vreck in the morning.

The easiest and quickest way to get rid of a sold is to take Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. This preparation has been in use for many years and its value fully proven. No. matter what remedy you use, however, care must be taken not to con tract a second cold before you have recov ered from the first one, and there is ser ious danger of this. A man of middle age or older should go to bed and stay In bed until fully recovered. . It is better to stay in bed three days at the start than three weeks later on. If you’ve reached the Btage where your day of work seems iong, one of foar things is the mat ter with you: you’re lazy, you’re sick, you’re old or you ought to be in another job.

A few days later, while examining the knife closely, the boy discovered on the blade the words “ Made in Germany,” whereupon he threw the knife as far as he could and never touched it again > The Democratic editor publishes the story as an illus tration of commendable patriotism. And yet that same editor, in 1913, consistently supported the Deuio cratic administration in the enact merit of a tariff iaw which encour aged the increased development of the German pocket knife industry bv increasing the opportunities for sales of German knives in America.

The produce business was in chaos. Collecting, transportation, preparation and distribution was hit or miss, with delay, .deterioration and loss on every hand. The farmer was at the mercy of an uncertain, localized market He had no way of reaching through to the people who needed what he was raising for them. There was no prem ium upon improving his stocks, for grading was lax or lacking. The consumer had to accept produce that, as a rule, had no known, respon sible name .behind it. He had no way of knowing how long the eggs or the butter he was buying had been lying around in miscellaneous lots in the back room of a country store. Much of the poultry was not properly refrigerated before shipment or properly protected by refrigeration in transit. Swift & Company’s initiative brought system to this chaos. Their organiza tion, equipment, and experience in handling perishable food products were already adjusted to the task. Their refrigerator cars, branch houses, cen tral points, far-reaching connections, trained sales force, supplied just what was demanded. Now the farmer has a daily Qggi1 market in touch with the nation’s needs with better prices. Standardi zation makes better produce more profitable. More consumers are served with better, fresher, finer foodstuffs. Nothing suffers from this save inefficiency, which has no claim upon public support.

THE COMPLETED DRAFT READ BY PRESIDENT WILSON IN PLENARY SESSION. ‘ : OW KOH FANGS Great Triumph for the President in the Virtual Adoption of AU of His Fourteen Points. PLi FDR LEiOL PROPOSITION FOR AN INTER ALLIED MILITARY FORCE IS BADLY DEFEATED. OBAFT CONTAINS 26 ARTIGLES Japanese Introduce but Drop Amend ment Providing Against Racial Discrimination in Immigration. The following is a synopsis of the adopted draft of the League of Na tions read by Presdent Wilson in Ple nary session of the Peace Conference at Paris. The full text of the docu ment' is voluminous and very interest ing, but the matter given below covers practically every item of importance in the completed instrument: Paris.—The executive council of the proposed League ol' Nations, as out lined in the .covenant read by Presi dent. Wilson will consist rf representa tives of the United State, Grett Brit ain. France. Italy, and Japan, togeth er with representatives of four other states. The council shall meet as often as is necessary Imt at least once a year at whatever place may be designated. Any matter within the sphere of ac tion .of the league or affecting the world will be dealt with. ' The President of the United States shall summon the first meeting of the body of the delegates and the execu tive council. The league will have a secretariat under the direction of a secretary- general. who shall appoint the other members. The secretary-general shall act in that capacity at all meetings. The representatives of the high contracting parties and the officials of the league shall have diplomatic privi leges and immunity. The building oc cupied by the league or its officials shall enjoy extra-territorial benefits. The admission of states not signa tory to the covenant shall be with the assent of not less than two-thirds of the states represented in the body of delegates and shall he limited to fully self-governing countries. No state shall be admitted unless it gives effective guarantees to observe international obligations and unless it shall conform to conditions prescribed by the league in regard to its naval and military forces and armament. The high contracting parties under take to respect and preserve the territorial integrity and political in dependence of all states members of the league against external aggres sion. In case of any such aggression or any threat of danger of such ag gression the executive council shall advise upon the means by which the obligations of the members shall be fulfilled. The high contracting parties re serve the right to take any action to safeguard the peace of nations in the case of war or threat of war. In the case of disputes arising between them which diplomacy cannot adjust, the high contracting parties will not re sort to war without submitting to arbitration or to an inquiry by the executive council and until three months after action by the arbitrators or the executive council. The executive council shall formu late plans for the establishment of a permanent court of international jus tice.Concerning armaments, the cove nant says that the maintenance of peace will require the reduction of national armaments to the lowest point, consistent with national safety and the enforcement of internation al obligations by common action, the geographical situations and circum stances of the various states being taken into account. The executive council shall fix the extent of armaments and these shall not be exceeded without the permis sion of the council. It is agreed that the private manu facturers of munitions and imple ments of war “lends itself to grave objections.” Tbe executive council is directed to give advice on the state ment of this evil. . ■ The contracting parties undertake not to conceal their ability to pro duce munitions and armaments and agree oh a full interchange of infor- mtion as to military and naval pro grams. PRESIDENT HOMEWARD BOUND.. ON THE GEORGE WASHINGTON Paris.—The ' Burgeois proposition for an inter-allied military force to*eu- force peace was defeater by an over* Whelming vote at the meeting of the society of nations commission. The French and the Czecho-Slovaks were the only representatives in the affirmative. The draft of the society of nations plans was then unanimously adopted as a whole. The final draft consists of 26 articles. The Japanese delegation presented an amendment providing that racial discrimination should not he tolerated in immigration laws.. Several dele gates urged that this would open such a large question that great delay might ensue anad the matter w; dropped without a vote. JAPAN HESITATES OVER THE "MANDATORY” PLAN Paris.—Japan has not yet. agreed to the plan for making her a mandatory for the .Carolina and Marshall islands. While the other powers have practi cally agreed to the mandatory princi ple and are willing to accept direc tion of the various German colonies. Japan desires a more complete defini tion of the plan under which the two groups of Pacific islands will be en trusted to her, and a more complete statement of the kind of internation- tional control and supervision which will obtain under the society of na tions plan. If the society of nations desires standardization and unification of de velopment of the captured German colonies which would prevent Japan from giving a distinctly Japanese character to the Marshall and Caro- Iie islands, the plans wouid not be ac ceptable to Japan, as it would hurt the national pride of her. people, the delegate said. Paris.—President Wilson and party are now homeward bound on the steamer- George Washington, the same vessel on which he made the outward voyage. His departure was without peculiar incident. , PRESIDENT SAYS THAT ALL HAVE IDENTICAL THOUGHT Paris.—President Wilson, in .ad dressing a delegation from the French association for a society of nations, said: “I appreciate very deeply what lias been said and I take it that the kind suggestion is that some time after my return' we shall ar; range a public meeting at which, I am quite confident, we may celebrate the completion of the • work, at hny rate up to a certain very far ad vanced stage. RUSSIA WAR FLOTILLA COMMANDED BY GERMANS Copenhagen.—A man Crom Kron stadt states that he saw a Russian war flotilla nearly all the ships of which were commanded by German officers in Russian uniforms. Some of them were former acquaintances. He expressed his indigation to one of them, an old friend, at seeing him working for* bolshevists. The German officer answered. "It is quite natural. There will be a revolution in England n June or July. You see here the be ginning of the German Baltic fleet.” AMERICAN AND ENGLISH HEARD ON REPARATIONS Paris.—The peace conference com mission on reparations heard the American and English points of view on the question of reparations. Lord Sumner spoke for Great Britain. Louis Kletz, the French minister of finance, presided. The financial commission of the conference met under the presidency of former Premier Salandra of Italy.

PEftCEFIRSUHEN A E PRELIMINARY TREATY SHOULD BE INITIATED AND SUBMIT TED TO THE PEOPLES. IlREWEuSGOOmTHEPOOr Premier’s Promise of Indemnities to Be Kept By Conference, or “Some One Has Sold the Pass.” Loudon.—The view that the terms of peace with Germany should be set tled before the organization of a so ciety of nations is dealt with was ex pressed in the house of commons by Horatio W. Bottomley. The preliminary treaty, he said, should be initiated and then submit ted to the^ peoples of each country. Mr. Bottomley said he was not sure that if that were done, President Wil son would find that he spoke with such absolute authority for the Unit ed States. He said he supposed that in any case President Wilson on his return to America would find Amer ican idealism taking a very practical form in securing food contracts throughout the world and “scooping the pool while we are talking about a league of nations.” If there had been no disagreement at the peace conference as had been said in the king’s speech, Mr. Bottom- Iev added, then the question of the freedom of the seas had gone, the do minions were to he supreme regard ing the German colonies and the premier’s promise as to indemnities were to be carried out, or “some one has sold the pass.” ANARCHIST REGIME VIVIDLY DESCRIBED BY REV.

CONFERENCE HAS NOT M a DE GOOD W ITH FRENCH PRESS Paris The conference has not by any means made good‘with the press of France and from every side a chorus of complaint is rising at the lack of method in its labors and the lack of coherency in its ideas. Many Frenclimen were more than surpris ed that the conference should be oc cupying itself with the affairs of the Jugo-Slavs, the Czecho-Slovaks and other newcomers and not. with the frontiers of Germany. ’ Charlotte, N. C.—Plans of a most comprehensive nature to bring about conditions which will make possible a' marked improvement in the express service throughout the country, have been announced by Mr. W. S. Hall, Charlotte representative of the Amer ican Railway Express Company. A “Better Service Campaign” will be undertaken by the 135,000 men and women employed in the express busi ness, for the purpose of raisng the standards of packing, wrapping and marking shipments. The drive started on February 10, in every city and town in the coun- ot' education and appeal among ex press employes simultaneously with a widespread effort to secure the co operation of the shipping public along the same lines. / No new packing or marking rules have been adopted for the campaign, but express drivers and receiving clerks will be instructed hereafter to insist, firmly but court eously, that the rules already In force be strictly adhered to. The chief purpose of the "Better Service Campaign” is to check, once for all, the waste of time, effort and money that result from lost or dam aged shipments. It is a source of dis satisfaction and annoyance to both shippers and -the carrier and tends to impair the-express service. It is ex pected that all who ship by express, and 300,000,000 shipments are annual ly traveling that way. will be keenly interested in the forthcoming drive, because it so intimately concerns the transportation end of many different trades and industries, some of which depend almost exclusively upon the express service. Reganling the conditions which led to a decision for a national drive of this character, an express official made this statement: “It is an ac knowledged fact that the average American businss man regards a sat isfied customer as a direct asset to his business. He would do nothing that might jeopardize his good rela tions with that customer. But if the goods he sends to the customer arrive in bad order, if the contents are dam aged or pilfered because they were exposed during the journey, or if, may be, entire shipments are lost because of inadequate marking or insecure packing, the customer may not wait long for explanations, but place his business elsewhere.” “Start Express Shipments Right” is a slogan which will be carried throughout the campaign and which if adhered to will mean a great saving to business and their- customers. 18 DIVISIONS OF GERMANS ARE ON THE W ESTERN FRONT London.—British newspapers of all shades of opinion are devoting seri ous attention to the attitude adopted by the German government toward the armistice conditions. The Daily News Paris correspond ent send.s a dispatch from "authorita tive sources” on the subject in which he says his informant told him that he had the best reason to believe that Germany is not continuing to de mobilize. “She has now concentrated more than 18 divisions under Von Hinden- burg on the western front,” the cor respondent quotes his informant as saying. “We also have the best rea sons to believe that Germany is keep ing her troops under arms on the pre text of economic necessity. Some of the military authorities think that. Germany has sought more material to give necessary armament to 3,000,- 000 men. German demobilization is a condition to our demobilization.

Nancy, ICy.-Mrs. Cora Waddle, a resident of this place, gives out this statement: “I have taken Black- Draught and found It to be the best Uver medicine I ever used. It has Just been fine for indigestion, sour stomach and a bitter taste in the mouth. I used to get bilious and constipated and had to take something. Pills and other strong medicines would only tear my stomach up and leave me In a worse fix than before taking. I began to have sick headache. After learning of Black-Draught I took it and was cured of sick head aches. One or two doses a week, or a pinch after meals, kept the bowels open and took away all bile. I have a good appetite, due to my use of Black- Draught.” If your liver is not. acting properly you may suffer from such symptoms as headache, biliousness, constipation, Indigestion, etc., and unless relief is obtained serious trouble may result.

Something grows out of the ground In the form Of vegetation to cure almost every ill. Some of these vegetable growths are understood by man, and some are not. Animals, it would seem, know what to do when they are sick better than men and women. Observers have noted that a sick horse, dog or cat will stop eating food and seek out eome vegetable growth in the field or yard, which, when found and eaten, often restores appetite and hcnlth. Haven’t you seen these animals do this very thing yourself? Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., long since found the herbs and roots provided by Nature to overcome constipation, and he had these vegetables collected and made up of Mayapple,. leaves of Aloe, root of Jalap, into little white sugar-coated pills, that he called Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets. You must understand that when your in testines are stopped up, poisons and de cayed matter are imprisoned in your sys tem, and these are carried by the blood throughout your body. Thus does your head ache, you get dizzy, you can’t sleep, your skin may break out, your appetite de clines, you get tired and despondent. As a matter of fact, you may get sick all over. Don’t you see how useless, all this suffering is? AU that is often needed is a few of Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets, which he has placed in all drug stores for your convenience and health.

Synopsis;—Barton Baynes, an orphan, goes to live with his nnele, Peabody Baynes, and his Aunt Deel on a farm oft Rattleroad, in a neighborhood called Lickitysplit, about the year 1826. He meets Sally Dunkelberg1 about his own age, but socially of a class above the Bayneses, and is fascinated by her pretty face and fine clothes. Barton also meets Roving Kate, known in the neighborhood as the “Silent Woman.” Amos Grimshaw, a young son of the richest man in the town ship, is a visitor at the Baynes home and Roving Kate tells the boys’ fortunes, predicting a bright future for Barton and death on the gallows for Amos. Barton meets Silas Wright, Jr., a man prominent in public affairs, who evinces much interest in the boy. Barton learns of the power of money when Mr. Grimshaw threatens to take the Baynes farm unless a note which he holds is paid. Now in his sixteenth year, Bar ton, on his way to the post office at Canton, meets a stranger and they ride together. They encounter a highwayman, who shoots and kills the stranger. Barton’s horse throws him and runs away. As the murderer, bends over the stranger Barton -throws a stone, which he observes wounds the thief, who makes off at once. A few weeks later Bart leaves home to enter Michael Hacket’s school at Canton. CHAPTER VIII—Continued. —9— “There comes Colonel Hand," said Mrs. Hacket as she looked out of the window. “The poor lonely Whig I He has nothing to do these days but sit around the tavern.” Colonel Hand was a surly-looking man beyond middle age, with large eyes that showed signs of dissipation. He had a small, dark tuft beneath his lower lip and thin, black, untidy hair. “What do ye think has happened?” he asked as he looked down upon us with a majestic movement of his hand. “The son o’ that old Bucktail, Ben Grimshaw, has been arrested and brought to jail for murder." “For murder?” asked Mr. and Mrs. Hacket in one breath. “For bloody murder, sir,” the colonel went on. 4Tt was the shooting of that man in the town.o’ BalIybeen a few weeks ago. Things have come to a pretty pass in this country, I should say. Talk about law and order; we don’t know what it means here and why should we? The party in power Is avowedly opposed to it—yes, sir. It has fattened upon bribery and corrup tion. Do you think that the son o’ Ben Grimshaw will receive punish ment even if he is proved guilty? Not at all. He will be protected—you mark my words.” He bowed and left us. When the door had closed behind him Mr. Haeket said: “Another victim horned by the Snapdragon! If a man were to be slain by a bear back in ’the woods Colonel Hand would look for guilt in the opposition party. Michael Henry, whatever the truth may be regarding the poor boy in jail, we are in no way responsible. Away with sadness! What is that?” Mr. Hacket inclined his ear n.id then added: 44Michael Henry says that he may be innocent and that we had bet ter go and see if we can help him. Now I hadn’t thought o’ that. Had you, Mary?” “No,” the girl answered. “We must be letting Mike go ahead of us always,” said her father. “You saw the crime, I believe,” turning to me. I told them all I knew of it. “Upon my word, I like yoa, my brave lad,” said the schoolmaster. “I heard of all this and decided that you would be a help to Michael Henry and a creditable student. Come, let us go and pay our compliments to the senator.” The schoolmaster and I went over to Mr. Wright’s house—a white, frame building which had often been pointed out to me. Mrs. Wright, a fine-looking lady who met us at the door, said that the sen ator had gone over to the miil with his wheelbarrow. “We’ve plenty of time and we’ll wait for him,” said the schoolmaster. “I see him!” said little John as he and Ruth ran to the gate and down the rough plank walk to meet him. We saw him coming a little way down the street in his shirt-sleeves with his barrow in front of him. He stopped and lifted little John in his arms, and after a moment put him down and embraced Ruth. "Well, I see ye still love the tender embrace o’ the wheelbarrow,” said Mr. Hacket as we approached the senator. “My embrace is the tenderer of the two,” the latter laughed with a look at his hands. He recognized me and seized my two hands and shook them as he said: “Upon my word, here is my friend Bart. I was not looking for you here.” He put his hand on my head, now higher than his shoulder, and said: “I was not looking for you here." He asked about my aunt and uncle and expressed joy at learning that I was now under Mr. Etecket “I shall be here for a number of weeks ” he said, “and I shall want to see you ofteD. Maybe we’ll go hunt ing some Saturday.” We bade him good morning and he went on with his wheelbarrow, which was loaded, I remember, with stout sacks of meal and flour. We went to the school at half past eight. What a thrilling place it was with its 78 children and its three rooms. How noisy they were as they waited in the schoolyard for the bell to ring! I stood by the doorside look ing very foolish, I dare say, for I knew not what to do with myself. My legs encased In the tow breeches felt as if they were on fire. I saw that most of the village boys wore bought- en clothes and fine boots. I looked down at my own leather and was a tower of shame on a foundation of greased cowhide. Sally Dunkelberg came in with some other girls and pre tended not to see me. That was the hardest blow* I suffered. Among the handsome, well-dressed boys of the village was Henry Wills—‘ the boy who had stolen my water melon. I had never forgiven him for that or for the killing of my little hen. The bell rang and we marched into the big room, while a fat girl with crinkly hair played on a melodeon. Henry and another boy tried to shove me out of line and a big paper wad struck the side of my head as we were marching in and after we were seated a cross-eyed, freckled girl in a red dress made a face at me. It was, on the whole, the unhappiest day of my. life. .During recess I slapped a boy’s face for calling me a rabbit and the two others who came ’\\"\\'\\i|I l W B W I Saw a Face and Figure Behind the Grated Door of One of These Cells. to help him went away full of fear and astonishment, for I had the strength of a young moose in me those days. After that they began to make friends with me. In the noon hour a man came to me in the schoolyard with a subpena for the examination of Amos Grtmshaw and explained its meaning. While I was talking with this man Sally passed me walking with another girl and said: “Hello, Bart!” I observed that Henry Wills joined them and walked down the street at the side of Sally. I got my first pang of jealousy then. When school was out that after noon Mr. Hacket said I could buve an hour to see the sights of the village, so I set out, feeling much depressed. I walked toward the house of . Mr. Wright and saw him digging potatoes In the garden and went In. I knew that he was my friend. . 44Well, Bart, how do you like school?” he asked. 44Not very well,” I answered.. “Of course not! It’s new to you now, and you m iss, your aunt and uncle. Stick to it. You’ll make friends and get interested before long.” 44I want to go home,” Isdeciared. 44Now let’s look at the compass,” he suggested. “You’re lost for a minute, and like all lost people you’re heading the wrong way. Don’t be misled by selfishness. Forget what you want to do and think of what we want you to do. We want you to make a. man of yourself. You must d t it for the sake of those dear people who have done so much for you. The needle points toward the schoolhouse yonder.” He went on with his work, and as I walked away I understood that the needle he referred to was my con science. I went about my chores. There was to be no more wavering In my con duct At the supper table Mr. Hacket kept us laughing with songs and jests and stories. The boy John, having been reproved for rapid eating, hurled his spoon upon 'te*4- floor. 44Those in favor *4 ^is puniihaaent will please say aye?” (said th* school master. I remember that we had a divided house on that important question. The schoolmaster said: 44Michael Henry wishes him to be forgiven on promise of better conduct, but for the next offense .he 6hall ride the bad ger.” This meant lying for a painful mo ment across his father’s knee. The promise was given and our merrymaking resumed. .The district attorney, whom I had met before, came to see me after supper and asked more questions and advised me to talk with no one about the shooting with out his consent. Soon he went away, and after I had learned my lessons Mr. Hacket said: 44Let us walk up to the jail and spend a few minutes with Amos.” We hurried to the jail. The sheriff, a stout-built, stem-faced man, admit ted us. 44Can we see the Grimshaw boy?” Mr. Hacket inquired. “I guess so,” he answered as he lazily rose from his chair and took down a bunch of large keys which had been hanging on the wall. 44EBs fa ther has just left.” He spoke in a low, solemn tone which impressed me deeply as he put a lighted candle in the hand of the schoolmaster. He led us through a door into a narrow corridor. He thrust a big key into the lock of a heavy iron grating and threw it open and bade us step in. We entered an ill-smelling stone-floored room with a number of cells against its rear wall. He locked the door behind us. I saw a face and figure in the dim candle light, behind the grated door of one of these cells. Hoyr lonely and dejected and helpless was the expression of that figure! The sheriff went to the door and un locked i t 44Hello, Grimshaw,” he said sternly. 44Step out here.” It all went to my heart—the man ners of the sheriff so like the cold iron of his keys and doors—the dim candle light, the pale, frightened youth who walked toward us. We shook his hand and he said that he was glad to see us. I saw the sear under his left ear and reaching out upon his cheek, which my' stone had made, and knew that he bore the mark of Cain. He asked if he could see me alone and the sheriff shook his head and said sternly: 44Againsfthe rules.” 44Amos, Tve a boy o’ my own an’ I feel for ye,” said the schoolmaster. 4Tm going to come here, now and then, to cheer ye up and bring ye some books to read. If there’s any word of advice I can give ye—let me know. Have ye a lawyer?” 44There’s one coming tomorrow.” "Don’t say a word about the case, boy, to anyone but your lawyer—mind that.” We left him and went to our home and beds, I to spend half the night thinking of my discovery, since which, for some reason, I had no doubt of the guilt of Amos, but I spoke not of it to anyone and the secret worried me. Next morning on my way to school I passed a scene more strange and memorable than any in my long ex perience. I saw the shabby figure of old Benjamin Grimshaw walking in the side path. ' His hands were in his pockets, his eyes bent upon the ground, his lips moving as if he were in deep thought. Roving Kate, the ragged, silent woman who, for the fortune of Amos, had drawn a gibbet, the shadow of which was now upon him, walked slowly behind the money lender point ing at him with her bony forefinger. Her stern eyes watched him as the cat watches when its prey is near it. She did not notice me. Silently, her feet wrapped in rags, she walked behind the man, always pointing at him. When he stopped she stopped. When he resumed his slow progress' she fol lowed. It thrilled me, partly- because I had begun to believe in the weird, mysterious power of the SUent Wom an. I' had twenty minutes to spare and so I turned into the main street behind and close by them. I saw him stop and buy some crackers and an apple and a piece of cheese. M p b h - wbile she stood pointing at him. He saw, but gave no heed to her. He walked along the street in front of the stores, she following as before. How patiently she followed! I started for the big schoolhouse and a number of boys joined me with pleasant words. Sally ran past us with that low lived WUls boy, who carried her books for her. His father had gone into the grocery business and Henry wore bougi iten clotnes. I couitmt tell SaUy how mean he was. I was angry and decided not to speak to her until she spoke to me. I got along better in school, althor;’’ “here was some tit terin'- when I recited, probably be cause I had a broader dialect and big ger boots than the boys in the village. CHAPTER IX. I Meet President Van Buren and Am Cross-Examined by Mr. Grimshaw. The days went easier after that. The boys took me into their play and some of them were most friendly. I had a swift foot and a good eye as well as a strong arm, and could hold my own at three old cat—a kind of baseball which we played in the schoolyard. Saturday came. As we were sitting down at' the table that morning the younger children clung to the knees of Mr. Hacket and begged him to take them up the river in a boat. “Good Lord! What wUt thou give me when I grow childless?” he ex claimed with his arms around them. “That was the question of Abraham, and it often comes to me. Of course we shaU go. But hark! Let us hear what the green chair has to say.” There was a moment of silence and then he went on with a merry laugh. 44Right ye are, Michael Henry! YoU are always right, my boy—God bless your soul! We shall take Bart with us an’ doughnuts an’ cheese an’ cook ies an’ dried meat for ail.’’ From that moment I date the be ginning of my love for the occupant of the green chair in the home of Mi chael Hacket. Those good people were Catholics and I a Protestant and yet this Michael Henry always insisted upon the most delicate consideration for my faith and. feelings. 44I promised to spend the- morning In the field with Mr. Wright, if I may have your consent, sir,” I said. 44Then we shall console ourselves, knowing that you are in better com pany,” said Mr. Hackeb Mr. Dunkelberg called at the house in Ashery lane to see me after breakfast. ' 44Barb if you will come with me I should like to order some store clothes and boots for you,” he said In his squeaky voice. For a moment I knew not how to answer him.

The senator stopped work and stopd looking at me with his hands upon his hips.- 4T wouldn’t let him do it if I were you,” he said thoughtfully. Just then I saw a young man come running toward us in the distant field.

TQ REMOVE THE STATE PRISON Bill for Standard Scale of Weights to Be Used in Selling Corn Meal, Grits and Corn Flour. Raleigh.—The following is a brief resume of business of a general na ture, transacted during a week’s work of the General Assembly of North Carolina: Senate. Feb. 7.—After strenuous debate in the senate, the ‘ ScaIes-Stevens high way biii with 16 amendments was upon motion of the authors re-referred to the public roads committee to be reported back as a special order. The measure was taken up for discussion at the regular session and was again considered at the first night meeting of the senate held since the conven ing of the General Assembly. Opposition to consideration of the measure on the floor of the senate centered around changing the form of the Highway Commission and re sulted in the sending in of an amend ment last night to establish a com mission composed of three members, one from the western, one from the central and one from the eastern por tion of the State. House. Without a dissenting vote, the low er bouse of the General Assembly passed the Bryant-McCoin bill to re move the State prison from Raleigh to the Caledpnia farm in Halifax coun ty and turn the prison property over to the State Hospital for the Insane. Evidently, opposition was anticipat ed, several members speaking from the force of striking convictions on the subject. The house was deter mined to put it through, however, for Speaker Brummitt swapped the chair for the floor and was ready to take a hand in the debate if opposition de veloped. This occupied much of the Friday session but in front and behind the passage of this measure the house buckled down to work and cleared the calendar of everything except the bud get bill and a few minor measures on which later action was requested. Senate. Feb. S.—The senate was in session for an hour and ten minutes. Some new bills introduced were: S. B. 394: Thompson—To amend section 83 of the Revisal in regard to building and loan associations. S. B. 395: Connor—To provide ways and means for six months school term in North Carolina. S. B. 410: Price, by request—To im pose a license tax upon tobacco ware houses. House. Passage of the Gray budget bill as originally drawn and the introduction by Representative Pharr of the Coon school bill, endorsed by a number of city superintendents, won the spot light in the lower branch of the Gen eral Assembly. In the usual brief Saturday session the . calendar was cleared of practically all local meas ures. The following new bills were introduced: ■H. B. 478: Pharr—To provide ways and means for a six months’ school term. •H. B. 479: Gold—To amend the law relative to nrinting for State depart ments and State Board of Health. $10 to |52 for license number and each for duplicate numbers instead of $1. The new revenue bill, ss b.immeretl into shape by the joint iinanca com mittee of the Ugislature during the past three woeks, was introduced in the house by Chairman Doeshton, of the house committee on finance, an:! is regarded as the most notable measure of the kind cffered in the legislature in years, it increases the State tax for schools frsm 20 cents to 32 cents on the hundred dollars valu-. ation and cuts the regular stale tax levy from 23 2-3 cents to 11 2-3 ‘cents,; however, five per cent of the 23 2-3* cents levy heretofore has been set aside as a State equalizing fund. Senate. Feb. 11.—The senate passed the bill by Long, of Halifax, providing an amendment to the constitution to pay members of the General Assembly $10 a day and the presiding officers $15 a day. The committee on roads agreed on its report of the Stevens-Scales high way bill, wh?ch was referred to the committee after the wholesale amend ments offered during the special order consideration. The committee chang ed the tax on automobile dealers from I Feb. 12.—The Dougtiton constitu tional amendment for incomes and re vising poll tax and franchise privi leges was threshed out and generally agreed upon in a long argument on the floor and then the bill was carried over for some changes as to wording before it is finally passed and sent to the senate. It carries the general in come tax provision, limits poll tax to $3 with no county or municipal poll tax, removes poll tax prerequisite for voting and allows voters in the State one year’s residence instead of two years. The senate debated until 11 o’clock the Stevens-Scales State highway bill and the Stacy substitute and in the end adopted the Stacy substitute by a vote, of 30 to IS. Adopting the sub stitute made it necessary, for the measure to go over for the second reading, being a roll call measure. The Stacy substitute imposes an automobile tax of $10 and $15 and truck taxes of $40 to $150 and pro vides for $2,500.0«) bond issues an nually, the auto tax revenue to pay interest and provide sinKing ft/nd. The senate took up the special or der, the bill by Long., of Montgomery, to increase the pay of members of the General Assembly through consti tutional amendment. It was explain ed to provide through committee sul - stitute $10 a day for members and '15 a day for the presiding officers. Senator Glidewell thought thft mem bers were entitled to ample pay. He. had no close kin here to Iielp him re duce his f-xpenses.. The argument wagged on without much point until Senator Gray moved the previous question and closed the debate. The vote was by roll call, and was 38 to 4 for the measure. The third reading was then had and the bill sent to the house.The house was convened at 2 o'clock by Speaker Brummitt. New bills were introduced as fol lows: Kelly—Amend the 1915 local laws relating to working public roads. Pharr—Require all banks to list and pay their ta::es where they do business. Pharr, by request—Fix. guilt of per sons falsely representing themselves as having physical defects. Amend the 190S act relating to eminent do main /m end the law as to the right of the State to appeal in criminal eases Relating to the penalty for usuary. Make it a misdemeanor to have carnal intercourse with a mar ried woman knowing her to be such. Agricultural Agents Meet. Extension activities for the coming year were discussed by the men and women agents of the Agricultural Ex tension Service at. their conference. Each agent was called upon by the district men in charge to present his plans for cojraty work during the coming year. The women agents met in separate conference in the auditorium in the basement of the county courthouse, the morning session having been given over largely to a persentation of plans for work during coining year. Indorse ScKooI Bill. Having failed of an agreement in s IjiH to insure six months school in MI the'counties, seven city superin tendents met. here and endorsed the Mil proposed by Superintendent Coon, •'f Wilson. The Coon bill would allow ii) state aid by equalization fund to fhe pauper counties until those coun- Hes have levied a thirty cent special f.ax In addition to the present tax. fhe bill likewise would require the ^tate T°x Commission to certffv to hoard of education that the county asking It has equalized its tax values. Feb. 13.—A motion by Senator -Bed- dingfield prevailed for the reconstruc tion of the'bill passed two days ago for sanitary privies, the State hoard of health measure, and it again took its place on the calendar: Roll call bills passed final reading in the senate as follows: Re-enact the road law of 1917 fOT graduated county and State bonds.. Re-enactment to remedy defect in pas sage two years ago whereby it passed two readings on a single day. Brown—Provide for physical exam inations of school children in the State. Make. superior court clerks members of the county board of health. Amend the law for, co-opera tion in the development of rural sani tation. Connor—Amend the constitution to grant equal suffrage to women. Representative Sellars seiit up a pe tition from Robeson county automo bile owners against excessive tax. New bills were introduced in the house as follows: Mull—Provide physical examination of school children. Hewitt—Submit, location of county buildings to popular vote. Amend the 1917 act as to public welfare by providing for supervision and inspection of private institutions. ornha.na.ges and other chartered in stitutions. Pardon, Probably Deserved. Governor' Bickett pardoned Clifton Donnel, who was convicted as a boy of I. 6years old tor selling cocaine, served a part of his sentence, escap ed, studied pharmacy at the Univer sity of Michigan, and is now manag ing a drug store in the State of Maine; Donnell was convicted in Forsyth !n May, 1912, and was sentenced to eight months in the county .jail.

Ernest Travers, a British offi cer, was riding over the pla- :ean on which Morristown, N. J., is JUiIt1 approaching a place called Back ing ridge. There was nothing In his dress to indicate that he was a soldier, for he. was in mufti. On reaching Back- 'here Was {Nothing to Indicate That He Was a Soldier. ing ridge he turned into a road leading to the residence of a gentleman named Harrington, a patriot himself, but whose family were all bitter enemies of the Revolution. Lieutenant Travers had been noti fied by Isabel Harrington, to whom he was betrothed, that her father would be away from home that day and asked him to come to see her. She was waiting for him and seing him ap proach signaled him that he might come to the house without risk. Ty ing his horse to a hitching post at the gate, he went up the walk. “I asked you to come today,” said the lady, “first, because father is away, secondly because I wish to aid the king’s cause through you.” ‘‘I hope you are not going to eniist me for a Spyi" said the young man. "I am ready to serve my king as a soldier, hut spying is not to my taste.’ "So you said in your letter when I SUggsted your coming. Well, we will not discuss that matter; we may at least enjoy your visit.” “Is your father expected to return soon?” asked the young man. “I don’t know; why do you ask?” “It would have been impossible for me to come from New York to your house so near Washington’s headquar ters in uniform without meeting rebel troops. Ton see I am in citizen’s dress.- If captured clothed as I am, I would be condemned and hung as a spy.” The girl shuddered. A moment later from her seat be side a window she espied her fathep and a man whom she recognized as General Washington dismounting from their horses in front of the gate: “Heavens!” she exclaimed. “You are lost!” Travers saw what she had seen. She begged him to permit her to hide him but he would not.. “I am not a spy,” he said; “if I were found in hiding it would go hard with me. It is bad^enough as it is without making it worse. Besides, my horse has given me away. They know that some one is within. Should I take to flight, if caught I would surely be considered a spy.” At this moment Mr. Hiirrington and General Washington started for the end as an exposure. He chose a dig nified, a manly course. “General,” he said, “to sail under false colors is not to my taste. I am a lieutenant in the king’s army. I came here in obedience to Miss Har rington’s invitation to visit her.” “Are you aware,-sir, that to be found so near our army in citizen's dress In dicates that yon are looking for In formation?” • “I am aware, General, that I am in a position to be considered a spy, bnt I am simply a visitor at the house of Mr. Harrington. If my word is not suf ficient, I may be searched.” “If information' concerning our forces were found on you, sir, it would prove the case against you. But if such information were not found on you, that would not exonerate you.” The matter was embarrassing for the general. Travers had been caught in Mr. Harrington’s house, a visitor to Miss Harrington, whose father was a patriot, a friend of Washington’s, and aiding In every way within his power the cause of the colonies. “Give me your word of honor, sir, not to leave this place,” said the gen eral. “I will withdraw to another room with Mr. Harrington and when I return will announce my intentions in regard to you.” . “Do not consider me or my daughter in this matter, general,” interposed Mr. Harrington. “In that case,” said the general, “I consider it my duty to send for a de tachment to take your guest into cus tody.” . At this Isabel broke down. Drop ping on her knees before the general she begged him to permit her lover to depart. Washington’s heart was touched by her appeal, but this did not prevent his doing his duty. “Have you any proof,” he asked, “that this gentleman is not here for military information?” “I will confess. I have been collect ing information of your forces and wrote Lieutenant Travers to come for it.’ He replied—” Travers’ letter, declining to make a spy of himself occurred to her; she “Heavens! You Are Lost!” house. When they entered Isabel in troduced Lieutenant Travers .'as Mr. Archibald. Her father looked at the visitor suspiciously ; he did not re member to have seen him there before. "His excellency,” said Harrington, “nnd I are here for a conference. We will go into my den for the purpose.” Then In a different tone, “But Isabel, what is the matter with you?” The girl was so frightened that she trembled. Washington, who suspected -from the visitor’s refined appearance that he was a Tory, if not a British officer, said to him: laMen of your age, sir, are needed in our army.” • Travers saw that Isabel’s want of self-control h ad ’started what would Washington Read the Letter. took it from the bosom of her. dress and handed it to him. Washington' read the letter, then calling for a pencil wrote on its back: “Pass the hearer to the British lines. “GEORGE WASHINGTON. “Gen’l in Chief.” (Copyright, ISIS, Western Newspaper Union.) INAUGURATION HAD TO WAIT Why George Washington Was Nol Formally Made President Until April 30, in 1789. Although March 4 is the date set by law for the ceremony of the inaugura tion of our presidents, there was one occasion when the rule was not ob served, for George Washington was in augurated on April 30,1789, instead of March 4. When the Constitution had been ratified by the requisite number of states the Continental congress by resolution of September 13, 1788, set the first Wednesday of the following March (March 4, 1789) as the “time for commencing proceedings” under the new form of government. Owing to delays of various kinds, such as difficulties of travel, etc., mem bers of the first congress were very slow to assemble in New York, and a quorum of both houses was not ob tained until April 6. The counting of the electoral vote, the notification of Washington of his election to his high office, nnd his journey from Mount Vernon to New York took until April 23, and his inauguration was set for April 30. His term of office was, however, con strued as having commenced on March 4, the date set by the Continental con-" gress for the inauguration of the new government, and so it came to an end on March 4, 1793, although it lacked nearly two months of the four years provided for by the Constitution.— New York Times.

If there have ever been men and boys who deserve gold service sttipes and their cherished Division Insignia, surely the ones who have crossed the briny deep to go (over the top) to save our country from the terrible Huns, are the ones who should wear them.

Shelby, Feb. 7.—Lowell Bar nett, aged 13 years, son of Mr. and Mrs. Webb Barnett, who caltiva ted one -of Lieutenant Governor Gardner’s farms near Shelby, has just filed witn Farm DemonBtratcr Gidney a report of his yield ot cot- ton, made on one acre, as a mem ber of the Boy’s Cotton Club oi Cleveland county. He made two bales weighing 507 pounds each, aud the cotton and seed were sold for the sum of §41146. Keeping an accurate account of the time, labor and expense incurred in the production of his crop,, it cost him tbe sum of §77 50 to plant, culti vate and harvest the same. This gave him a net profit of $344.41. He used 1,100 pounds of fertilizer, which cost $37.90. This is the highest record yield ever made in Cleveland county, and youug Bar nett has been awarded the follow ing prizes: $25 by the Ella Man ufacturing Company; $25 by the ■Southern Cotion Oil Company, and $100 by L. A . Stoney of Al Jendale, S. C,, who furnished tbe flGet There-First” seed from which the crop was grown. Governor Gardner made 154 bales on 169 acres and over 3,000 Dusnels of corn on 100 acres. This is the largest yield of cotton made by any single farmer in the county.

George Creel, the official inter preter of the Wilsonian mind once studied the expressions available and gave this interpretation of the Wilsonian attitude on the tariff: •‘The Wilson idea of a tariff for revenue only leads away from the protection theory that is funda mentally ridiculous and economi cally impossible.” That, was hitting at; the protect ion idea straight from the shoul der. “ Fundamentally ridiculous and economically impossible” is about as sweeping as an expression could be made. Manifestly, if the producers of the country, the earn ers of high wage?, and the build ers of American enterprise, have any hope-of protection from the cheap products of cheap labor in Europe and Asia, they must look elsewhere,,than to Mr. Wiison and those who follow his political lead ership. A ndthereturnsfrom the election last November indicate that the people of the country are determined to look elsewhere. The vote shows that ,people of the country look upon the “ tariff for revenue only” as the ^theory that is “ fundamentally ridiculous and economically i impossible.’’ Mr. Creel may lhink tt at the people are fools,:but the people are1.bound to have their own way about it as soon as they can. —Ex.

S. S.” KEEP IT UP. It was a great convention and the speech of Chairman Hays has been well described as wonderful, and now the one thing most necessary to bring actual results from that con vention and from all similar efforts in the same behalf.is to keep in mind just one setence of that great speech. What the country needs, he said, is not less politics but more attention to politics. Unfortunately many persons look upon pulitics as merely a scramble for spoils, and of course that is ex actly what it is among a few profes sional office-seekers, but there are twenty million voters in this coun try and comparatively few of them ever think of being candidates for office, Most of them, however, are partisans because they believe that some one party will serve the coun try better than any of the others. Believing this, it is the duty of' the citizen to work for the party he be lieves in The Republicans of North Carolina may well take to heart these words of National Chairman Hays. Indeed, they must do so, if anything of per manent value is to come from that great convention and other efforts of the past in that same behalf. This means not merely the leaders but the men in the precincts, for it is in the precincts, after all, that ev ery one of these contests is either won or lost. It may seem trivial, but there is always sumething that the humblest worker may do and it is the sum ,of these little things things taken alto gether that finally determines the result of every struggle,—just as the snowflakes coming one at a iime fi nally cover the earth,—just as the votes cast one at a time finally run up into the millions. The chief thing to do just now is to keep the subject in mind and not go to sleep over it. It will not be long until something will occur worth reporting^, to the. precinct or county chairman. The thing to do is to report it at the very first oppor tunity, and make the opportunity if necessary. There are various ways to press a button for the cause. Thething to j do is to press it—press it at once. On the other hand if we fold our arms and go to sleep to dream about that glorious convention only to.| wake up thirty or sixty days before, the eleetean, then the greater pari of all past effort is just like so much striking at the wind—just so much lost motion—just sb much useless expenditure of time; and money and energy. The onetbingtodo is to keep the subject in mind and keep up the w ork.. Let this be done and the result will more than justify the effort. Tlie People Know. • Senator Kenyon, of Iowa, is right in saying that the' people of this country are incensed by the extrava gance and waste, to use no stronger term, which has characterized the conduct of governmental affairs dur ing the past two years especially. But the people are not deceived, ai\d cannot be deluded, as to the respon sibility for this. It belongs! with the administration and the party" in power; an administration and .a par ty which promised the American peopie in 1912 a “return to thatsira plicity and economy befitting adem ocrafic government,” Responsibili ty for this orgy of extravagance cannot by any sophistry be separated f roir those who have been exercising the appropriating and expending power The people understand that Congress has been a mere tool in the hands of tha executive power for the past six years, and especially for the past two years, when every de mand has been backed by the cry of war necessity which made opposi tion seem unpatriotic. The people have a pretty clear idea of where the responsibility lies for a carnival of waste which has begun at the top and extended to the very bottom Possibly there is a feeling that res ponsiuility for the situation is shared because of acts of ommission, by. Re publican members of Congress who have fallen in with the idea that Congress is and of a right ought to be a mere seismograph for recording White House tremors, but stopping waste sponsored by the executive authority in a time of war is like trying to put out a prairie fire with a garden hose. The people have rendered one verdict on this fright1 f ul wastet still continuing at an ap palling rate, but it is only a slight suggestion of what they are going to hand the party in power an d all its apologists and defenders the next time they get an opportunity.--Na- tionaf Republican. "W. S. S.” Forgetting The Other End. There are many things that would improve conditions'in this town and the surrounding territory, but the one defect which' impresses itself most forcibly upon our mind at this time is the lack of unanimity and co hesiveness in social affairs. With each individual the town or community in which he lives is! like a piece of rope or twine. It has two ends, and each should be in harmony and work smoothly with the other. The one end is where we begin our life in the community, and the other is when death or removal breaks the connection. We devote our. time, our thoughts and our energies to the 'beginning and to each successive step a | we progress through life. The end is bat a phantom of the future and we give it but little heed. And therein we jerr, for it is not wise to forget the other end. We need an awakening and a more cjhesive spirit in the social life of tnis town and of this countryside. W eneedagreater spirit of frater nity in our associations one with;' an other. A spirit of brotherhood jand sisterhood should bind us closer ' .to gether for the commdn wealth of all. In the pleasures and excitements of today we forget "that there is a tomorrow for which we must pro vide, and in this ommission we! too requently are storing up isolation and ionesomeness for the later years of life. As we begin, so do we invariably end. If we cultivate a spirit ;of aloofness and exclusiveness in' the days of our youth, then we must ex pect that in the ripeness of old age others will maintain the barrier that separates us to tne end. • The joys and pleasures of youth are easv to acquire, but as time - silj vers our locks they are more difficult to obtain.' The person who adheres to an ex clusive clique today may find that tomorrow the integral parts, have drifted away and that other doors are closed. And it is then that the grayness of the winter of life is brought home to the one who lives in the beginning and forgets tte other end. W eall have our good qualities and our faults, some more pronoun ced than others. 4None of t^s%are ever perfect, for we are but human5 and are of the same clay; ; Let us then remember that life of tomorrow will be just as we shape our beginning today. Let us bear in mind that the end of the string.. may be sharp and strong and virile, of that it may be old and worn and frazzled. Life1Iike the Btringi has a ;begiu- other end of^life, and will be in accordance with Sentenced For.Robbery;, of Post- office at Mocksville. ning and an end, and the end must inevitably.pay for the ommissions of j;the beginning, ' Those who cultivate friendships in the summer of youth will find that in the decline of life others will cleave to them, and that the mellow ness of old age will be filled with joy instead of being saddened by sorrows and regrets. In our intercourse one with anoth er, friends, let us remember that each day we are approaching the that the end the pre cepts and policies of the beginning. Let us make of this a community of friends, and not merely of ac quaintances. Let us transform the gray winter of life into a perpetual sunshine of summer. • Let us begin today. “W. S.

Their labors, as w».s anticipated, have been very protracted, the league of nations cnmmis^ion being so far the only one which lias accomplished its task. It is likely steps will be taken to impress . upon the commissions the necessity of speeding up their labors with a view to arriving at a conclu sion before the return of Mr. Wilson The task of the special commissions on the claims of the various national ities has been on the whole more easy.

VITALLY AFFECTS PEIIGE IjyESlh I ARMISTICE NEGOTIATIONS BY NO MEANS SETTLED .BY THE MEETING AT TREVES. tPESH MOMENTS DF CRISIS Allies Compelled Suspension of Hos tilities'by Germany Against the Little States in East. Paris.—The armistice negotiations vitally affect the whole'' question of peace with Germany and those nego tiations are not by any means ended by the last meeting of Marshal. Foch with the Germans at Treves. All that has been done is to prolong the ex isting terms • of the armistice, to call upon the enemy to execute without delay the conditions 'laid down iu three previous conventions and to en join upon him complete cessation of. operations against tbe Poles. The-chief conditions which the en emy has not yet put into effect refer to the immediate handing over of stolen bonds, railway rolling stock, submarines and facilities to be given allied agents to control German wealth deposited abroad as well as to working tbe German merchant marine under allied control for supply pur poses. The Germans did their ut most in the way of protest against the prolongation when they were call ed upon, but there could be no other course of action open to the allies than to force Germany to suspend hostilities against the states to the east who have thrown in their lot with the allies. Already the allies are supplying food to the enemy and their general attitude is in striking con trast witll that of Bismarck In 1871. Fresh protests and fresh moments of crisis are certain to be forthcoming when the final terras of the armistice are produced at Treves.

The general con dition is satisfactory. Temperature 04.S; pulse 72. The nourishment is normal.” The announcement made in the offi cial bulletin caused some anxiety in the immediate entourage of the pre mier at his home and the news that his condition was more serious than st first reported spread quickly t.'irr'nghout Paris, causing widespread expressions of sympathy.

Stockholm—Recen*. bolshevist de feats seem to have revived the diver gencies between Pr.’mier Lenine and Leon Trotzlcv. the former insisting upon a favorable reply being given the powers should another invitation •to attend the conference be issued, as is said to be tinder consideration, but the latter still maintaining that the strength of the army enables the so viet government to defy any . menaces on the part of the allies. SEVEN SHOTS ARE FIRED AT FRENCH PREMIER OF WHICH THREE TOOK EFFECT. CONDITION IS SfiriSFAGTORY Anarchist Assailant Says Clemenceau Is Enemy to Humanity .and.. Was Preparing for Another War. Par’s.—Premier Georges Clemen- jeau, characterized by Lloyd George as “France’s grand young man," was attacked by an anarchist, Emile Cot- tin, known as “Mitou.” Seven shots were fired, three of which struck the premier. One bullet lodged In the jiuscles of- the shoulder, penetrating deeply, but, so far as is at present known, not injuring the spine or pene trating to the lungs. Two bflllets bruised the right arm- and hand, while two other bullets are reported to have passed through the premier’s clgth- ing. At the time of the attempted assas sination M. Clemenceau had just left his home to drive in a motor car to a conference with Col. Edward M.

Clemenceau was able to return to his home, where he reassured the members of his household and waved aside anxious inquirers with, “It is {nothing.” Latest reTiorts from li'.s attendants were that his condition was sntiafao- .tory, and that he was cheerful throughout the day. despite occasion al fits of coughing. For the r resent it has been decided by the surgeons that extraction pf the bullet may not be necessary, and arrangements have been made to take radiographs of the injured parts. Cottpn, whom the police believed to be a somewhat harmless person as sociating with anarchists and aiding in their propaganda, declared that he had planned to kill the premier be cause M. Clemenceau “was the enemy of humanity and was preparing for janother war.” BILL FOR SEACOAST DEFENSE HAS BEEN PASSED BY HOUSE Washington.—The annual appropri ation bill carrying $11,199,000 for sea- coast defenses of the United States and its insular possessions was pass ed by the house without a-record vote and sent to the senate. • The bill carries $4,641,692 for coast defenses in ihe United States. $400,- 000 for proving grounds, $1,633,750 for coast defenses in the insular posses sions -and $4,523,849 for Panama canal fortifications.

Dogmatism is puppyism that has ob tained its growth. W e e k l y H e # T a l k s U R IC A C ID IN T H E SYSTEM BT LEE H. SMITH, M. D. Uric acid, is now generally recog nized as the cause of more diseases than was heretofore believed. When ■ the kidneys are out of order uric acid accumulates within the body In super abundance. The disordered kidneys do not filter the poisons out of the blood, as they ought to do, and so the poisons remain in the hlood and float around until they find a place to lodge, in form of urate salts. Tlio thing to remember Is that you may have rheumatism in any part of the body—you may have pains anywhere —your back may ache and your head may be dizzy—but the trouble is not where the pain appears. The trouble is in the kidneys, and what is the first thing to do? You must> get that excess uric acid out of your sys tem, which can he done by taking Anuric Tablets, the splendid remedy which Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., has. put on sale in the drug stores at a low price. Anuric Tablets (made double strength), when taken into the system as medicine, have the peculiar power of dissolving the uric acid deposited there. Drop a bit of sugar or salt into hot water, and it will disap pear. In precisely the same way do these Anuric Tablets dissolve uric acid. Of course, after ridding the system of uric acid, it may return again unless you eat the right foods and live the right kind of life, but Dr. Bierce will advise you fully on proper food and correct living if yon write and ask him. He makes no charge for such advice. Take Anuric Tablets to day, by all means, and get that uric acid out of your system. Don’t, don’t, don’t, put the matter off.

Synopsis.—Barton Baynes, an orphan, goes to live with his uncle, Peabody Baynes, • and his Aunt Deel on a farm on Rattleroad, in a neighborhood called1 Llckitysplit, about the year 1826. He meets Sally Dunkelberg, about his own age, but socially of a class above the Bayneses, and is fascinated by, her pretty face and fine clothes. Barton also meets Roving Kate, known In the neighborhood as the "Silent Woman.” Amos Grimshaw, a young son of the richest mah in the town ship, is a visitor at the Baynes home and Boving Kate teiis the boys’ fortunes, predicting a bright future for Barton and death on the gallows for Amos. Barton meets Silhs Wright, Jr., a man prominent In public affairs, who evinces much interest In the boy. Barton learns of the power of money when Mr. Grimshaw threatens to take the-Baynes farm unless a note which he holds is paid. Now in his sixteenth year, Bar ton, on his way to the post office at Canton, meets a stranger and they ride together. They encounter a highwayman, who shoots and kills the stranger. Barton’s horse throws him and runs away. As the murderer bends over the stranger Barton throws a stone, which he observes wounds the thief, who makes off at once. A few weeks later Bart leaves home to enter Michael Hacket’s school at Canton. Amos Grimshaw is arrested, charged with the murder which Bart witnessed. . CHAPTER IX—Continued. —10— To my utter surprise he resumed his talk with me as the young man went away. "You see all ways are north when yon put this lodestone near the needle,” he went on. "If it is to tell you the truth you must keep the lode- stone away from the needle. It’s that way, too,, with the compass of your soul, partner. There the lodestone is selfishness, and with its help you can make any direction look right to you and soon—you’re lost.” He bound the last bundle and then we walked together toward the house, the senator carrying his sickle. “I shall introduce you to the presi dent,” he said as we neared our des tination. "Then perhaps you had bet ter leave us.” I could not remember that I had ever been “introduced” to anybody. I knew that people put their wits on ex hibition and often flung down a “snag” by way of demonstrating their fitness for the honor, when they were intro duced in books. I remember asking rather timidly: “What shall I say when—when you —introduce me?” “Oh, say anything you want to say,” he answered with a look of amuse ment “I’m kind o’ scared,” I said. “You needn’t be—he was once a poor boy Just like you.” “Just like me I” I repeated thought fully, for while I had heard a good deal of that kind of thing in our home, it had not somehow, got under my jacket, os they used to say. “Just like you—cowhide and all— the son of a small freeholder In Kin- derhook on the Hudson," he went on. "But he was well fed in brain and body and kept his heart clean. So of course he grew and is still growing. That’s a curious thing, about men and wbmen, Bart. If they are in good ground and properly cared for they never stop growing— never! — and that’s a pretty full word—isn’t it? We ha'd come In sight of.the house. I lagged behind a little when I saw the great man sitting on the small piazza with Mrs. Wright. I see viv- 9> “It Is an Honor to Meet You, Sir, and Thank You For the Right to Vote— When I am Old Enough." ’ idly, as I write, the full figure, the ruddy, kindly face, the lnrge nose, the gray eyes, the thick halo of silvered hair extending from his collar to the bald top of his head. He rose and said In a deep voice; "He sows IU luck who hinders the reaper.” ‘ Mr. Wright hung his sickle on a small tree In the dooryard and answered: “The plowman has overtaken the reaper, Mr. President I bid you wel come to my humble home.” , “It is a pleasure to be here and a regret to call you back to Washing ton,” said the president as they shook hands. “I suppose that means an extra ses sion,” the senator answered. “First let me reassure you. I shall get away as soon as possible, for I know that a president is a heavy bur den for one to have on his hands.” "Don’t worry. I can get along with almost any kind of a human being, es pecially if he like pudding and milk as well as you do,” said the senator, who then introduced me in these words: “Mr. President, this is my young friend, Barton Baynes, of the neigh borhood of Lickityspllt In the town of Ballybeen—a coming man of this county.” "Come on,” was the playful remark of the president as he took my hand. “I shall be looking for you.” I had carefully chosen my words and I remember saying, with some dig nity, like one in a story book, although with a trembling voice: "It is an honor to meet you, sir, and thank you for the right to vote—when I am old enough.” Vividly, too, I remember his gdntle smile as he looked down at me and said In a most kindly tone: “I think it a great honor to hear you say that.” . He put his hands upon my shoulders and turning to the senator said: “Wright, I often wish that I had your modesty.” “I need it much more than you do,” the senator laughed. Straightway' I left them with an awkward bow and blushing to the roots of my hair. ,As I neared the home of Mr. Hacket I heard hurrying footsteps behind me and the voice of Sallycalling my name. I stopped and faced about. How charming she looked as she walked toward me I I had never seen her. unite so fixed up. "X11Bart," she said. 4T suppose you’re not going to speak to me.” “H you’ll speak to me,” I answered, ‘i love to speak to you,” she said. “I’ve been looking all around for you. Mother wants you to come over to dinner with us at just twelve o’clock. You’re going away with father as soon as we get through.” I wanted to go but got the notion all at once that the Dunkelbergs were in need of information about me and that the time had come to impart it.. So then and there that ancient Olympus of our family received notice as it were. “I can’t,” I said. “I’ve got to study my lessons before I go away with your father.” It was a blow to her. I saw the shadow that fell upon her face. She was vexed and turned and ran away from me without another word and I felt a pang, of regret as I went to the lonely and deserted home of the schoolmaster. At twelve-thirty Mr. Dunkelberg came for me, with a high-stepping horse in a new harness and a shiny, still-running buggy. He wore gloves and a beaver hat and sat very erect and had little to say. “I hear you met the president,” he remarked. “Yes, sir. I was introduced to him this morning,” I answered a bitj-too proudly, and wondering how he had heard of my good fortune, but deeply gratified at Ijls knowledge of it, “What did he have to say?” I described the' Interview and the looks of the great man. No't much more was said as we- sped away toward the deep woods and the high hills. I was eager to get home but won dered why he should be going with me to talk with Mr. Grimshaw and my uncle. Of course I suspected that it had to do with Amos, but how I knew not. He hummed In the rough going and thoughtfully flicked the bushes with his whip. ‘I never knew a more persistent hummer. Aunt DeeI shook , hands with Mr. Dunkelberg and then came to me and said: ^ “Wal, Bart Bayines I I never was so glad to see anybody In all the days o’ my life—ayes! We been lookin’ up the road for an hour — eyes! You some right into the house this min ute—both o’ you.” The table was spread with the things I enjoyed most—big, brown bis cuits and h great comb of honey sur rounded with its nectar and a pitcher of milk and a plate of cheese and some jerked meat and an apple pie. - “Set 'right down an’ eat—-I just want to see ye eat—ayes I do!” Mr. Grimshaw came soon after we had finished our luncheon. He hitched his horse at the post and came in. "Good day,” he said, once and for all, as he came In at the open door. “Baynes, I want to have a talk with you and the boy. 9?ell me what you know about that murder.” “Wal, I had some business over to Plattsburg,” my uncle began. "While I was there I thought I’d go and see Amos. So I drove out to Beekman’s farm. They told me that Amos bad left there after workin’ four days. They gavei him 'fourteen shillins an’ he was goin’ to take the stage In the mornin’. He left some time in the night an’ took Beekman’s rifle with him, so they said. Theiie was a piece o’ wood broke out o’ the stock o* the rifle. That was the kind o’ gun that was used in the murder.” It surprised me that my uncle knew all this. He had said nothing to me of his journey or its result. 44How do you know?” snapped Mr. Grimshaw. “This boy see it plain. It was gun with a piece o’ wood broke out o’ the stock.” 44Is that so?” was the brusque de mand of the money lender as he turned to me. “Yes, sir,” I answered. 44The boy lies,” he snapped, and turning to my uncle added: 44Yer mad ’cause Tm tryln’ to make ye pay yer honest debts—ain’t ye now?” Uncle Peabody, keeping his temper, shook his head and calmly said: “No, I ain’t anything agin’ you or Amos, but it’s got to be so that a man can travel the roads o’ this town without gettln’ his head blowed oft.” Mr. Dunkelberg turned to me and asked: “Are you sure that the stock of the gun you saw was broken?” 44Yes, sir—and Tm almost sure it was Amos that ran away with i t ” "Why?” “I picked up a stone and threw it at him and it grazed Gie left side of his face, and the other night I saw the scar it made.” My aunt and unde and Mr. DunkeI berg moved with astonishment as I spoke of the scar. Mr. Grimshaw, with keen eyes fixed upon me, gave a little grunt of incredulity. “Huh!—Liar I” he muttered. “I am not a liar,” I declared with in dignation, whereupon my aunt angrily stirred the fire in the stove and Uncle Peabody put his hand on my arm and said: “Hush; Bart! Keep your temper, son.” “If you tell these things you may be the means of sending an innocent boy to his death,” Mr. Dunkelberg said to me. “I wouldn’t be too sure about ’em if I were you. It’s so easy to be mistaken. You couldn’t be sure In the dusk that the stone really hit him, could you?” I answered: “Yes, sir—I saw the stone hit and I saw him put his hand on the place while he was running. I guess it hurt him some.” 4Xook a’ here, Baynes,” Mr. Grim shaw began in that familiar scolding tone of his, “I know what you want an’ we might jest as Well git right down to business first as last. You keep this boy still an’ I’ll give ye five years’ interest.” Aunt Deel gave a gasp and quickly covered her mouth with her hand. Unde Peabody changed color as he rose from his chair with a-strange look on his face. He swung his big right hand in the air as he said: “By the eternal jumpin’—” He stopped, pulled down the left sleeve of his flannel shirt and walked to the water pail and drank out of the dipper. “Say, Mr. Grimshaw, I’m awful sorry fdr ye,” said my unde as he returned to his chair,‘“but Tve always learnt this boy to tell the truth an’' the hull truth. I know the danger I’m In. We’re gettln’ old. It’ll be hard to start over ag’in an* you can ruin us if ye want to an’ Pm as scared o’ ye as a mouse in a cat’s paw, but this boy has got to tell the truth right out plain. I couldn’t muzzle him if I tried—he’s too much of a man. If you’re scared o’ the truth , you mus’ know that Amos is guilty.” ' Mr. Grimshaw-shook his head with anger, and beat the floor with the end of his cane. , “Nobody knows anything o’ the Mnq1 Baynes,” said Mr. Dunkelberg. “Of course Amos never thought o’ MniTig anybody. He’s a harmless kind of a boy. I know him well and so do you. Under the circumstances Mr. Grim shaw is afraid that Bart’s story will make it difficult for Amos to .prove his innocence." Unde Peabody .shook his head with a look of firmness* 4T see that Pm the mouse an’ you’re the cat,” he resumed, as that curious laugh rattled in his throat. “Look a’ here, Baynes, PU tell ye what PU do, I’ll cancel the hull mortgage." Again Uncle Peabody rose from his chair with a look In his face which I have never forgotten. How his voice rang out! “No, sir!” he shouted so loudly that we all jumped to our feet and Aunt Deel covered her face with her apron and began to cry. It was like the ex plosion of a blast. Then the frag ments began falling with a loud crash: “NO, SIR! YE CAN’T BUY THE NAIL ON MY LITTLE FINGER OR HIS WITH ALL YER MONEY— D N YOU!” It was like the shout of Israel from the top of the mountains. Shep bouneet Into the house with hair, on y /// / / " / ' / t "No, Sir! Ye Can’t Buy the Nail on My Little Finger or His With Alj Yer Money—Damn You I" end and tbe chickens cackled and the old rooster dapped h is' wings and crowed with all the power of bis lungs. Every member of that little group stood stock still and breathless. I trembled with a fear I could not have defined. Mr. Grimshaw shuffled out of the door, his cane rapping.the floor as if his a-rm had been stricken with palsy in a moment. Mr. Dunkelberg turned to my aunt, his face scarlet, and muttered an apol ogy for the disturbance and followed the money lender. “Come on, Bart,” Uncle Peabody called cheerfully, as he walked toward the barnyard. “Let’s go an! git iq them but’nuts.” He paid no attention to our visi< tors—neither did my aunt, who fob lowed us. The two men talked to gether- a moment, unhitched their horses, got into their buggies- and drove away. “Wal, I’m surprised at Mr. Horace Dunkelberg tryin’ to come it over us like that—ayes 11 be,” said Aunt DeeL “Wal, I ain’t,” said Uncle Peabody. ”01’ Grimshaw has got him under his thumb—that’s what’s the matter. Yon’ll find he’s up. to his ears in debt to Grimshaw—probly.” As we followed him toward the house, he pushing the wheelbarrow loaded with-sacks of nuts, he added.: 44At last Grimshaw has found some thin’ that he can’t buy an’ W s awful surprised. Too bad be didn't learn that lesson long ago." He stopped his wheelbarrow by ihe steps and we sat down together on the edge of the stoop as he added: 4T got mad—they kep’ pickin’ on me so—I’m sorry, but'I couldn’t help it. WVU start up ag’in somewheres If we have to. There’s a good many days’ work- in me- yet” As we carried the bags to (the attic room I thought of the lodestone and the compass and knew that Mr. Wright had foreseen what was likely to hap pen. When we came down Uncle .Pea body .said to' me: "I feel sorry, awful sorry, for that boy.” We spent a silent afternoon gather ing apples. After supper we played old sledge and, my unde had hard work to keep us in good countenance. We went to bed early and I lay long, hearing the autumn wind In the popple leaves and thinking of that great thing which had grown strong within us, little by little; in the candle light Bart encounters a new peril as a result of his knowledge re garding the crime of which Amos Grimshaw Is accused. How Bart escaped from the danger that menaced him is told in the'next installment (TO BE CONTnnmDJ physician Wa T bII SERIOUS CONhITkm D r. F arn sw o rth Gives Doan'.

Mean and Contemptible Criticism of Goods Roads Propagandists. Raleigh.—The following is a resume of recent work of the General Assem bly of North Carolina of general in terest: House and Senate. Raleigh, Feb. 14,—On motion of Representative Ray, of Macon, the house refused to concur in the senate amendments to the state-wide dog law and provided for a conference committee. Senator ‘Brown introduced the de partment of health bills for repression of prostitution, to obtain reports of persons with venereal diseases, and to prevent venereal diseases, three separate bills. Senator Carr introduced a bill to encourage holding farm products to stabilize the markets by authorizing a tax value of products held subject to liens the difference between the due value and the indebtedness against the products to constitute the tax value. The house committee on manufac tures reported favorably a substitute bill by Neal for child labor control. It provides for a child welfare com mission; compulsory school attend ance with truant officers to go out after the children, and for inspectors to work under the direction of the commission, approfriating $6,000 for expenses. The Senate. Feb. 17.—Senators Connor and Man- gum were appointed as a committee from the house, in conference with the attorney general, as ' to adjust ments of the state prohibition law that are needed to meet the condi tions of the national prohibition law. Bills passed final reading as fol lows : Amend the law as to the procedure in the appointment of guardians for idiots, imbeciles and insane. Allow registration of deeds, ease ments, and rights of way by grantors by copy. Amend the revisal as to the time of serving cases on appeal to the su preme court, giving 30 instead of 15 days. 6bjection forced this over for third reading. Amend the banking laws to allow investment of a greater per cent of capital in bank building. The House. Speaker Brummitt convened the house at 10 o’clock. New bills were introduced as follows: Dawson—Amend the 1913 acts re lating to the Lincoln county roads and special tax. Clayton—Amend the 1905 act relat ing to the free road labor. Shepherd—Amend the law so as to protect purchasers of lands: amend the act as to the filing of papers with the register of deeds. Quite a successful sess.on independ ently last summer, he says. Senator Stacy denounced as mean and absolutely, contemptible, criticism by the North Carolina good roads propagandists in the Greensboro morning' paper, a statement that the supporters of the Stacy substitute road bill were insincere and lacked vision and statesmanship. They might be wrong and lack vision, he said, but the 30 senators could not be charged with insincerity. The senate passed the house bill to move prison ers to tie state farm and convert the central prison into an insane hospital. The Senate. Feb. 19.—The Stacy substitute road bill passed its third reading in the senate with but four votes recorded against it, and now goes to the house of representatives, where it stands an excellent chance to be amended in many important respects. Its passage through the senate was marked by many vicissitudes, nor did Senator Scales show any disposition to smooth its devious path on its final journey. Final adoption of the road bill was the principal feature of a session that lasted for a little more than two hours. Senator HoIderness started a lively discussion when he objected to a motion made by Senator Davenport that the Cooper cotton warehouse bill be recalled from the appropriations committee and sent to the agricul tural committee, of which Senator Davenport is chairman. A. roll call was asked and resulted in the defeat of the amendment by a vote of 14 to 27.. The House. Repeating its program of a double session Tuesday, the house adopted eight further sections of the revenue bill, making 23 in all. Gold, of Guilford, offered the most vigorous protest to the adoption of the income tax section of the revenue bill so far made against any section. TOlllams, of Cabarrus, and Winborne, of Hertford, followed his lead and urged the adoption of an amendment that would iaise the exemption to married men from $1,500 to $2,000. The idea that two can live as cheap ly as one is a fallacy, Mr. Gold told the house, and upon the present basis of living a married man. with or with out children, is entitled to twice the exemption of the single man, who does not pay income tax until his earnings pass $1,000. The argument against the amend ment. presented by Governor Dougb- ton and Mr. McCoin1 was that the in come tax must be collected on the ex emptions of $1,000 and $1,500 or else the State’s revenue would be jeopard ized. It was easy to criticize, Gover- I nor Doughton thought, but another proposition for the critic-to suggest a more feasible method of collecting the revenue. :AU amendments were lost and the section went through as writ ten by the finance committee. House and Senate. Feb. IS.—The house of representa tives, in committee of the whole, adopted 15 sections of the revenue bill without material amendments and continued its work on the bill tonight.The house reconsidered the vote oy which the bill to increase the pay of judges and registrars of elections to $3 per day was tabled, and passed the bill ordering it enrolled for ratifica tion, being a senate measure. Senator Stevens offered in the sen ate a bill to establish a summer school, for teachers at Asheville, carrying an appropriation of $10,000 and provid ing that the governor shall head ^ the board of trustees. He has received much encouragement as to support and expects to accept an amendment to include vocational training^ in the work of summer schools which had Blind Tiger Pardoned. “While no man should be permitted to hide behind his infirimities to do evil, still, I do not believe that any man should be required to forfeit his life for the violation of the prohibi tion law,” said Governor Bickett, par doning Y. A. Long, of Yadkin county, 63-years-old man convicted of retail ing and sentenced to twelve months in jail. Two reputable physicians had stated to the governor that the con finement in prison would very likely result in the death of the aged man. Sergeant Cook Located. iWashington (Special). — Sergeant Lloyd Cook, of Company L, 119th in fantry, has been located in France. He was reported November 24 m a hospital convalescing. His condition is good. Young Cook has relatives at Red Springs.

RECLUSE CANNOT LOSE HIS MONEY Chicago Man Made Unsuccessful Attempts to Give Mil lions Away. S O U G H T TO B E P A U P E R Aged Eccentric Is Again Millionaire, Altiiough He Transferred Money to Attorney—Victim of Many Fleecings. Chicago--Edward -W. Morrison, aged recluse of Chicago, has been try ing to get rid of his millions for many years, but, despite the assistance of his lawyers and cronies, he is unable to become a pauper. The millionaire nearly succeeded a few years' ago, when he transferred all his property, variously estimated at $3,000,000 to $0,000,000, to his attorney, but- the transfer was recently set aside by a federal court. In addition to his dealings with bis attorney, Edward Morrison gained no toriety some years ago when he was accused'by Joseph Bumstein, a Chica go junk dealer, of being the father of the two Burnstein girls he had adopt ed. The charge never was proved. Spent $94,000 to Get $25,000. In the investigation conducted by Federal Judge Landis it was shown that the eccentric millionaire had paid $94,000 to a man named Douglas to go abroad and to search for $25,000 worth of bonds supposedly stolen from his safe. Another man is said to have col lected thousands of dollars for pro viding the aged millionaire with ques tionable entertainment. “My -father was rich,” he declared when questioned about a real estate transfer. “He left me $3,000,000 when he di“d. I doubled that In speculation <Transferred All His Property. In mines and real estate. It was ray money; I made it. I had a right to spend it as I pleased, and I did.” But. the Chicago courts and the Chi cago board of education, to whom the will of Morrison’s father provides the estate shall ,revert for the erection of a high school building, should the re cluse die without children, thought otherwise and through their efforts the property has been regained. So Ed ward Morrison is a millionaire, once Accused of Theft in Home Where Dead Lay Atlanta, Ga.—You must, watch things even when you have a fu neral 'in the house. .T. L.

USE GAS TO QUIET CHICKENS Fall Off the Roosting Places and Are • Eaey Prey for Thieves In Ohio. Springfield, Ohio.—Chicken thieves are using gas in looting the hen coops of Clark County. Farmers in the vicin ity of Buena Vifcta1 near this city, have noticed a peculiar odor in their chicken coops after thieves have been there. The mystery was explained when one farmer found a chicken under one of the roosts which he took for dead. He tossed it in the barn yard and in a few minutes the chicken recovered and walked away. Farmers say the gas puts the chickens to sleep, they fall off the roosting places and are easy prey for the thieves. Steals “Shots In Arm.” Bellefontalne, O.—When Dr. H.

Breast of Veal.—'fake a three- pound breast of• veal, make a pocket for the slutting and fill with one cup of chopped onions, one cup of finely chopped celery fried in a little fat until soft; add two cupfuls of mashed potatoes, one teaspoonful of poultry dressing, one teaspoonful of paprika Fill the pocket and sew it up with string.

Life Is worth while. Its work is not useless. Its Ioys are not superficial. Its discipline is not unnecessary. When disappointments came face them sheerfully. ECONOMICAL DISHES. Milk as a food is oue of the great est Importance. We are told that a quart of tnilk should be used daily for each mem ber of the family before any meat is purchased. In thousands of homes where, there are little children, milk, because it has increased in price, has been cut down to barely a pint per family, while meat, which is considered such a necessity is Iumglit regardless of price. Milk, even at Ifi cents a quart. Is the cheapest protein food we cnn buy. Skim milk, which sells for half the price of whole milk, makes a most wholesome food and may he used in hundreds of dishes in which the whole milk was thought neces sary. It is both unwise and false economy to save on milk and spend It on meat and more expensive pr.i- tein prodiu.is. Dates at the present moment aie not cheap aud are not economi xil to buy often, at 50 or 60 cents a pound, but before long they may gel back to the old price or near it and we will then fee! that we can indulge in them wirli impunity. Date Pudding.—Stone a pound of dates and lay tliein in a baking dish. Cover with milk and let stand an hour or two. Then bake in a slow oven. Iettihg the dish stand In a dish of hot water. Serve either hot or cold. Au egg for each cup of milk and a bit of salt and flavoring may be added, making a custard and a dish with tnrre nourishment. Fruit Rice Pudding.—Take three- fou?ths of a cup of uncooked ,rice, four tart apples, one-half cup of rais ins, three-fourths of a cup of syrup, one-half teaspoonful of cinnamon, oue- third of a teaspoonful of nutmeg, and .the juice and rind of a lemon. Wash' the rice, add the ’ apples pared and quartered to the rice with three cup fuls of boiling water; add a half .teaspoonful of sail and cook until the apples are done; add the remaining ingredients and cook until the rice is tender. Serve with a thin custard for sauCe. Or the cooked mixture may he put into a baking dish and topped with a meringue and hrowmil ir the oven. To save crflmbs put them in a con tainer so they will dry and not mold. Dry brend carefully in the oven, then roll it with a rolling pin. Do not al low too much to accumulate. Bread crumbs may be used to save flour, using one cupful of crumbs to dis place a cupful of flour. Never sub stitute more than one-lmlf of the flour.
