OLD STORY REDIVIVUS. Statesville Landmark'. - Mrs. T. Wj Biebett asked the JTorth Carolina club women at Hendersonville to go on record as "disapproving the modern tenden cies in dress and dance,” and ap­ pealed to the mothers for help. •■If there is one thing that leads girls to Samarcand (the State home for.falleniwomen) and the lioy9 to the devil, it is the dance and dress of today,” declared IheGovernorjS lady. Thepreachers generally and great many men and women who are commonly called old-fashioned, have been saying thiB same thing about certain forms of the dance all through the years, and their protests and warnings have been the more emphatic since the dress styles seem designed'to reveal as much of the female form as one can get by with and escape arrest. But while it is trne that a great many people, along with Mrs Bickett, have viewed, and still view, with alarm certain tenden cies of modern society as to dress and manners, it is also certain that these conservatives have accomp­ lished absolutely nothing: by their protests. Instead the styles which at first so shocked the conservati ves, or the moss backs, as yon pre­ fer, have spread like fire in dry grass on a windy day and by and by the general public, accepts the change as a fact and ceases to re­ mark upon or to think about the radical transformation. Therefore the protest of the first lady (officially) of the State wijl accomplish nothing, and a resolu­ tion passed by the Federation of Women’s clubs, approving MrB. Bickettte attitude, accomplishes nothing, unless the BiBters do some thing about it. The club women are now a great force. Their nuip bers are large and their influence far-reaching. Will the women’s club members enlr*t in a~ crusade and sign up, to wear only- such clothes as are approved as proper, to attend only such dances ' as . are approved as proper, to enforce these restrictions on their daughters and i el use to rocognize socially, those whorefuse to live up to this stand­ ard of modesty? Will they? That is the acid test. By that method the tide might be turned back, but will the sisters make the attempt! "One might as well be out of the world as out of the laBhion” is a truism that applies universally to the daughters of Eve. They are slaves to the prevailing style, no matter what the style nor bow; it originates. As a rnle they cannot withstand fashion’s decree, even though it be odious to them. To wear clothes markedly out of.- pre­ vailing style excites ridicule, from those who gladly enibrace • every change of fashion, the more ,mark­ ed the better, and few there be., even among the older . andi more conservative sisters who maty ab­ hor the change, who fail to (follow the style in some degree at. le&Bt. Thereis little that can be -said for man as compared with the gent­ ler sex, but the. male is entitled^ to whatever credit there may be in the fact that he is not, as - a : rule, anything like the Blave to fashion the women are. The younger and the frivolous males are with the sisters in bedecking themselves in Say attire and startling effects, but as the male grows older and more sensible (as he is supposed to grow) he wears what appeals to him . re ' Bardiess of style.

JULY 2. 1919. herself as hence the Ptejs in her life.{ ^ured ltt 6 to U Duys Automobile Speeding. With thecomingof good roads North Carolina iB confronted by the laws on public highways. A speed limit is now fixed by law, but it is no more observed than the interpretations of the dream book. Who pays any attention to a limit of twenty-five miles an hour if he wants to run thirty-five on a smooth road? Forty miles or more is high speed for an automobile on country road, but the man who has his meter read that high is by no means a rare bird. Unfortunately high speed is not the exception. It is so common that you can hardly take a journey of any length but you encounter some one on the road so reckless in driving that you are endangered by his foolish speed. From speed and folly come many accidents, With more miles of good roads and much better surface on many principal roads the speed maniac is going to be more of a menace, and there is no way to escape the danger that he presents but to stop his lawless haste. In Borne towns a apaem of law observance breaks out occasionally and a few arrests are made, but they are not looked on as upholding the law. Bather they are regarded as sporadic man­ ifestations of police importance and passed over as a personal matter. Many times it is true that it iB a personal matter. They take up the ones looked upon with grudge while the special pets are allowed to go as they please. There is no systematic attempt to control auto­ mobile travel on the roads or streets in many places, so the fel­ low who rhns recklessly jeopardi zes the entire travel 'on ..the road- tbathe. infests. Tfie police or the deputy sheriff get but little, credit for trying to hold drivers to the limit allowed by the law, • so they, ignore what should be their duty. The speed fiends make business for the undertaker and the repair man, but the pity is that they too frequently compel an innocent maD to pay the penalty. It is a prob­ lem the state must settle much more effectively than it has done, for it is getting more costly every day, and with increasing good roads the worst of it is yet to come. Tlmes-Mercury.

Some people only believe half they hear, even when they tell it themselves.—Boston Transcript; Loss of Appetite. As a general rule there is nothing se­ rious about a loss of appetite, and if you skip a meal or only eat two meals a day for a few days you will soon have a relish for your meals wben meal time comes. Bear in mind that at least five hours should always elapse between meals' so as to give the food ample time.to digest and the stomach a period of rest before a fecond meal is taken. Then ir you eat no more than you crave and take a reas­ onable amount of .outdoor exercise every day you will.not need to worry abeut your appetite. - When the loss- of appetite is caused by constipation as is often the case, that should be corrected at once. A dose of Chamberlain’s Tablets' will do it. Can Anybody Explain This? It is notable, that whatever jury Mr. Wilson sits oh, whether-at Prinston.

Foster Milbum Co., Mfgrn, Buffalo, N. Y. New Tanlac Plant•Sp?.’. Is Now Completed. Magnificent New Laboratory Has Daily Capacity of 36,000 Bottles. - What is said to be one of the larg­ est pharmaceutical laboratories In the United States has been complet­ ed at Dayton, Ohio, for the manu­ facture of Taniac, the well-known medicine, which, according to recent reports is now having the largest sale of any medicine of its kind in the world. The erection of the new plant -was ,made necessary by the rapid growth of the business, as the older plant wasfoundto.be wholly inadequate to supply the ever-increasing de­ mand which at th§ present rate of sale will amount to more .than five million bottles for the present year alone.' By the erection of this plant the manufacturers of-Tanlac are giving to the world just one more evidence of the remarkable growth and ex­ pansion of their business, and of their absolute confidence in its fu­ ture. Thisannouncement will be read with interest not only by the' toatiy thousands of .Taniac agents scatter­ ed throughout every state of the Union and throughout Canada, but to the millions who have used it benefically as well. The new building occupies 60,000 square feet of floor space. It is six stories in height, practically fire­ proof throughout, and is .of striking architectural design, it also has private railway facilities. This beautiful new structure now stands in striking contrast beside the older building, where- .Taniac was first made, ■ >' Visitors to .the - laboratories are strongly impressed with the ex­ tremely1 modern character nf the equipment. Everything is provided and splendidly arranged to promote systematic and rapid production. The very latest machinery and de­ vices known to invention and phar- maceutical .science are here used. The interior throughout is finish­ ed in spotless white, and all of the large force of employees wear white uniforms which they are required to change daily. The main offices on the first floor are all finished in Ca- rara marble and mahogany. The entire process of manufacture is conducted under absolutely sani tary conditions. Even the bottles made expressly to contain Taniac are washed and sterilized electrical Iy by the ultra violet ray process They are then filled by automatic machinery and the finished product is therefore never touched by hu­ man hands. . When Taniac was introduced into Canada history repeated itself, and the demand which had been created in the'United States was quickly duplicated in the Dominion provin­ ces. Asa result, it was.recently found necessary to establish another Taniac laboratory at Windsor, JCan ada which is on a somewhat smaller scale than the plant at Dayton, but is no less modernly equipped. These new facilities give -a daily capacity of 36,000. bottles, but as TanIacis rapidly being introduced into foreign countries it is probably only a question of a few years be­ fore even larger facilities will be­ come necessary. While the manufacturers are ne­ cessarily working for capacity pro­ duction, it is a fundamental rule- of the Taniac Laboratories. that . the quality of the medicine shall never be sacrificed to secure-quantity out­ put., : Uniform qualitv is guaranteed by a series of careful inspections by ex­ pert chemists, from the time the roots, herbs and barks are received in their rough state, from Vall parts of the globe until their ,medicinal properties have ,been extracted by the most approved processes. The finished medicine is then bottled, labelled, and shipped out to the tens of thousands of' druggists through­ out the United States.,and Canada; to supply a demand never” before equalled for this or any other medi­ cine. -The executive sales.offices ;are Io- N U M B E R Sl’ifl — - v" V--^l cattd in Atlanta, Georgia, and oc-1 cupy almost an entire floor of the Fourth National Bank Building of that city, “Taniac is sold by leading drug­ gists everywhere.” AD VERTISEM EN T Mrs- Bickett Scores Thcf Dancing Rage.

Raleigh, N. G., June—Sheep rais­ ing is not a new industry for Davie. County,7 as for many years its farm­ ers have made it a practice to keep a small 'flock of sheep on nearly ev­ ery place. -These floekB were not kept for the money profit, but be cause they furnish food and clothing However; according to Mr. W. F. Reecej'the-cojbnty agent. in-the jaat few years the industry is beginning to be very profitable: This has been due to tbe high prices and scarcity of meats of all kinds,-,an4 the great­ er need for wool for clothing and uniforms. ’ ...--iS," Several individual farmers in Dayie County are making money "pushing : the sheep industry.O n£ farmer^; - Mr. S. A. Woodruff, has been, keep-; ing a flock of. from 25 to^'head.for several years, and at the same time has kept a complete record of all the wool and surplus sheep spld. His figures give ample proof .of what, can be done. For instance, on the first of January his flock consisted of 23 ewes and one ram - From this 24 head he secured 152 pounds of wool, which was sold for around 75 cents per pound, amounting to $114. This year he bad 19 lambs, six of which were retained in the flock, the other thirteen, together with six old ewes, being..sold for $216, This made a total sale during the spring of $330 from the flock ,of. 24 sheep. In Mn. Woodruff’s estimation, the wool clip wiil amply take care of the cost of feeding and attention, with the lamb crop being clear pro­ fit Mr" Reece states that there is about 300 bushels of wheat produced on Mr. Woodruff’s farm every year, and that he makes about' as much from his 24 sheep as he does from his’ surplus wheat. Ttis thought by many farmers that with the better enforcement of tbe dog law the sheep industry of NorthCarolinawill reach a. much more important place in the State Many farmers -are now .ordering pure-bred rams and ewes with which to bnild up their grade flocks, and are making provisions for the better handling of their sheep on the farm.

'BECAUSE OF SH IT O K S SETTLEMENT CHINESE HO NOT SIGN tVorid War U KnaDy Ended, Having Laated Jnat Twenty. Seven Days Less Than Five Years; Conditions of 1871 Exactly !Reversed; Germans Enter Protest Against Fancied Indignities. Versailles.—World peace. was sign, ed and sealed Saturday at 3:12 p. m., In the ^ historic hall of mirrors at Versailles, but under cir­ cumstances which somewhat dimmed, the expectations of those who had worked and fought during long years of war and months Kof negotiations for its achievement The absence of the Chinese dele­ gates, who at the last moment were unable to reconcile themselves to the Shantung settlement, and left the eastern empire outside the formal pur­ views of peace, struck the first dis­ cordant note in the assembly. A writ­ ten protest which General Jan Chris­ tian Smuts lodged with his signature was another disappointment to the makers of the treaty. But, bulking larger, was the attitude of Germany and the German plenipo­ tentiaries, which left them, as evident from the official program of the day and from the expression of M. Clemen- ceau, still outside any. formal recon­ ciliation and made actual restoration to regular relations and intercourse with the allied nations dependent, not upon the signature of the "prelimi­ naries of peace” today, but upon rati­ fication by the national assembly. To M. Clemenceau’s stern warning In his opening remarks that they would be expected ,and held, to ob­ serve the treaty provisions legalbr and completely, the German delegates, through Dr. Haniel. von Haimhausen, replied after returning to the hotel that, had they known they would be treated on a different status after sign­ ing than the allied representatives, as shown by their separate exits before Jie general bodf of the conference, they never would have signed. As a contrast with' the Franco-Ger- man peace session of 1871,. held In the same hell, there were present grizzled French veterans of the Fran- co-Prussian war. They replaced the Prussian guardsmen of the previous ceremony and the Frenchmen watch­ ed the ceremony with grim satisfac­ tion. 1871 Conditions Reversed. The conditions of 1871 were exactly reversed. The disciples, of, Bismarck sat in the seats of the lowly while the white marble statue of Min­ erva, the goddess of war, looked on. Overhead of the frescoed ceiling,' were scenes from France's ancient wars. Three incidents were emphasised by the smoothness with which the cer­ emony was conducted. The first of these was the failure of the Chinese delegation to sign. The second was the protest submitted by General Jan Christian Smuts, who declared the peace unsatisfactory. The third, uzt; known to the general public, came, from the Germans. When" the pro­ gram for the ceremony was shown to the German delegation, Herr von Haimhausen, of the German delega­ tion, went to Colonel Henry, French liaison officer, and protested. He said: • “We cannot admit that the German delegates should enter the hall by a different door than the entente dele­ gates, nor that military honors should be withheld. Had we known there would be such arrangements before, the delegates would not have come.” After a conference -with the French foreign minister ,it was decided, as a compromise, to render military hon­ ors as the Germans left. Otherwise, the program was not changed. An hour before the signing of the treaty, those assembled in the hall had. '■>een urged to take their seats,, but heir eagerness to see the historic-eer- emony was so keen that they refused to keep their seats, and -crowded to­ ward the center of the hall," which is so long that a good view was -impossible from the distance. Even with opera glasses ,the correspondents and others were unable to observe satisfactorily. The seats were in no way elevated; consequently there ' was a' general scramble for standing roam. The delegates of the minor powers made their way with difficulty through the crowd to their places at the table. Officers and civilians lined the walls and filled the aisles. President Wil­ son’s arrival 10 minutes before the hour for signing was greeted by a faint burst of applause from the few persons who were able to see him. The German correspondents were ushered into the hall shortly before 3 o'clock and were given standing room in a window at the rear of the correspondents' section. When Premier Lloyd George arriv­ ed many of the delegates sought auto­ graphs from the members of the coun­ cil of four, and they busied themselves signing, copies of the official program until the Germans entered the room. At 3 o’clock a hush feH over the hall, and the crowds shouted for the offi­ cials who were standing to sit down, so as not to block the view. . The del­ egates showed some surprise at the disorder, which did not cease until all the spectators had either seated themselves or .found places against the wall. At seven. minutes past 3 o’clock Dr. Hennann Mueller, the. German secretary for foreign affairs, and Dr; Bell, the colonial secretary, were shown into the hall, and quietly took their seats at the left end of the U- shaped table. They showed compo­ sure, and manifested none of the un­ easiness which Count von Brockdorfl- Rantzau, head of the German peace delegation, displayed when handed the treaty • at Versailles. M. Clemenceau, as president of the conference, made a brief speech in­ viting the Germans to sign the treaty and there was a tense pause. Wil­ liam Martin, master of ceremonies, af­ ter a moment’s delay, escorted the German plenipotentiaries to the signa­ tory table, where they signed the treaty, the protocol and the Polish un­ dertaking. After the Germans had signed, Pres­ ident Wilson, followed by the other American delegates, made his way to the table and he and the others speed­ ily affixed their signatures. Premier Lloyd George came next with the Eng­ lish delegation. The British domin­ ions followed—Canada, Australia/ New Zealand, South Africa- and India, in the order named. A murmur of surprise - passed around- the ' hall when - it became known that General Smutq, represent­ ing South Africa, signed under pro­ test and filed a document declaring that the peace was unsatisfactory. M. Clemenceau and the French del­ egates were the next in line for the signing, and ■ Baron. Bonnino and the other Japanese . delegates. The Ital­ ians came after the Japanese, and they, in turn, were followed by the representatives of the smaller powers. During the attaching of the signa­ tures of the great powers and ’the Germans'a battery of moving picture machines and cameras clicked away so. audibly that they could be heard above the general disorder. ‘ Cannon Boom. At 3:45 the booming of cannon in celebration" of the peace broke the monotony in the hall of mirrors, where the crowd had tired of the almost end­ less signing. China’s failure to send her, dele­ gates to the ceremony created much comment The vacant seats of the Chinese were noted early In the pro­ ceedings, but it was expected that the delegates would arrive later. Then the report was circulated officially that the Chinese would not sign with­ out reservation on Shantung, and would issue a statement this evening on their position. M. Clemenceau’s announcement that the ceremony was at an end made It clear that China in­ tended to have no part in the day’s ceremonies and that she must be dealt with by letter if the signatories are willing to grant her the privilege of making the reservation. T*t I AND L THE PRESIDENT STRONGLY IN FAVOR QF FAVORABLE AND PROMPT ACTION. GHDER ASSURED Great Peoples Willl Be Liberated Who Have Never Before Been Able to Find Path to Liberty. Washington.—President Wilson in an address to the American people on the occasion .of the signing of the peace treaty, made a plea for the ac­ ceptance of the treaty and the cove­ nant of the league of nations without change or" reservation. His message, given out here by Sec­ retary .Tumulty, said: 'My fellow-countrymen: “The treaty of peace has been sign­ ed. If it is ratified and acted upon in full and sincere execution of its terms, it will furnish the charter for a new order of affairs in the world. It is a severe treaty in the duties and pen­ alties it imposes upon Germany, but it is severe only because great wrongs done by Germany are to be righted and repaired; it imposes nothing that Germany cannot do; and she can re­ gain her rightful standing ip the world by the prompt and honorable fulfill­ ment of its.terms.. “And it is much more than a treaty of peace with Germany. It liberates great peoples who have never before been able to find the way to liberty. It ends, once for all, an old and in­ tolerable order under which small groups of selfish men could use the peoples of great empires to serve their ambition for power, and dominion. It associates the free governments of the world in a permanent league in which they are pledged to use their united power to maintain peace by maintaining right and justice. It makes international- law a reality sup­ ported by imperative sanctions. It does' away with the right of conquest and rejects the policy of annexation and substitutes a new order under which backward nations—populations which have not yet come to political consciousness and peoples who are ready for independence, but not yet quite prepared to dispense with., pro­ tection and guidance—shall no more be subjected to the ’ domination ,and exploitation of a stronger nation, but sijall be put under the friendly 'direc­ tion and afforded Qie helpful asist- ance of governments which undertake to be responsible for the opinion of mankind in the execution of their task by accepting the direction of the league of nations. Signed) “WOODROW WILSON.” EXTRADITION OF KAISER NOT TO- BE REQUESTED. Amtserdam.—The allied and asso­ ciated powers-will not ask for the ex­ tradition of the former German em­ peror, the Paris correspondent of The TeIegraaf says he learns, but will ask the Dutch .government in the. najpe of, the league of nations to see that -Herr Hohenzollern does not escape the moral consequences,. It is expected that as a member of the league, he adds, Holland will in­ form the former emperor that he -must appear before an international court or leave' the country. A highly placed French authority on international law told the correspondent that the pro­ ceedings against the former emperor would be on moral grounds and the sentence would be of a moral charac­ ter entirely. There, is. no question of a death sentence or imprisonment, the correspondent was told. DEMONSTRATION AGAINST GOVERNMENT IN ROME. Rome.—Serious disorders marked anti-government demonstration in Rome. The demonstrators attempted reach the residence of Premier Nittij but were'- driven hack by largn forces of military police. Order flnal- Uy was restored after midnight COST OF WORLD WAR TO ALL NATIONS INVOLVED HINDENBURG HAS THROWN UP JOB OF COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF.

I owe You Qiis explana­ tion. Havbtg already at' an earlier stage announced by intention to-with­ draw again into retirement, after the decision as to peace j has been- made, I now lay down my. command- in chief.” WASHINGTON RECEIVES NEWS WITH SCARCELY A FLUTTER- Washington.—Word of the consum­ mation of peace was received at the national capital with scarcely a flut­ ter of popular dr official sentiment. At the white house and the state department the news aroused only a quiet feeling of satisfaction that toe pre-arranged program for Qie si*1™* at Versailles had gone through Ip Congress there w as but tf momentary demonstration and on the streets the crowds gave no show of interest. the Washington.—The world war cost lives of 7,582,300 soldiers of all countries; the money cost was 'b e­ tween $185,000,000,000 and $195,000,- 0000,00; in shipping, Qie toll was 23,- 005,383 tons of merchant vessels and ,882,125 tons of war vessels. These figures were compiled at re- quest of Senator McCumber, of North Dakota, and were lnade public as rea­ son why theye should be a League of Nations. THE PRESIDENT COMES BACK EXTREMELY WELL SATISFIED WasWngteai--IPresidenf Wilson is returning to the United States more than satisfied, his friends say, with the net results ofthe cenefrence and, all thngs' consfldered, ft is his opinion, that the conference has been a Won­ derful success. .While it. is regarded os a disadvantageous peace for Ger­ many, yet against, this it is.held that Germany committed a great wrong and quite naturaflly W ^ ineritobly must- make- just reparation. v. OF BALKED Dy POLAND PLOT FRAMED TO FORM WITH POLAND A REPUBLIC IN NORTHWEST GERMANY. SGHEIDEM iNINSM ZERLIIND All Plans Fall Because of Jealousy and Differences of Opinions of Government and Army Leaders. Berlin.—The German government, headed by Philipp Scheidemann, had planned to refues to sign the peace treaty and to permit the allied troops to march-into Germany as far as the Elbe, where it would be attacked by strong German forces, the Danzig cor­ respondent of the Tageblatt -declares in a dispatch describing the details of a secret plan to create a separate state In northeastern Germany. The plan failed because of jealousies and differences of opinion between the government. and the army Ieau- ers, the correpondsent says.. .(A report from Geneva said Herr Scheidemann had arrived in! Switzer­ land after crossing the frontier on foot.). The last proposal made by the con­ spirators planning to oppose the al­ lies, it is said, was to ask P-’-nd to combine with. eastern Germat 'n the formation of an independent republic. The offer, it is declared, was rebuffed by the Poles, who asked why it had not been offered 10:years ago.' MOVEMENT OF GERMANS GIVE GREAT UNEASINESS. Paris.—'Movements of the Germans against the western, Polish boundary at three points are giving great un­ easiness in. conference circles, and Ignace. Jan Paderewski, Polish pre­ mier, is making earnest efforts to ob­ tain ammunition from the allies be­ fore the Germans cut the principal railways, which it is thought they wifi attempt! ■Heavy artillery attacks upon Czen- stoch'owa from the south and west threaten to cut the railway connect ing Warsaw' with Cracow . and the Teschen coal fields. Czenstochowa is a city of 40,000 persons and an import­ ant railway junction. QUESTION OF ENFORCEMENT PROHIBITION UP TO HOUSE. Washington.—The whole question oi prohibition - enforcement v. was trans­ ferred : from the judiciary committee to Qie house, without promise or as­ surance of speedy consideration. - A general enforcement measure em­ bracing both war-time and constitu­ tional prohibition put together in such a way as to let one stand, inde­ pendently of the other, was'reported out by a vote of 17 to 2, after 'the com­ mittee had ..-refused to split - it into two separate and distinct .parts. But this vote did not accurately represent the., sentiment of the committee, some members of which will send In a mi­ nority report and insist- upon the elimination of some of the drastic proviisons. SENATE K’S INCREASE ' IN SHIPBUILDING FUND. Washington.—'Increase in the ship­ ping board fund from' $276,000,000 to $491,000,000 for completion of the government’s authorized ship-building program was" approved by the senate with but one dissenting vote at a late session held in an effort to-pass the sundry civil appropriation bill. AGREEMENT REACHED TO FIX SIZE OF STANDING ARMY. Washingtom-Senate and house con­ ferees on the army appropriation bill reached an agreement to fix the aver­ age size of the 1920 army at 325.000 officers, and .men. TMs-total. is .75,000 less than that proposed by the senate and 25,000 more than the strength au­ thorized originally by the house. REQUESTS SU-PPRE-SSION. OF ARTICLE OF TREATY. Paris.—A dispath fcrom Vienna says that Dr. KarI Renner, head of the Austrian peace delegation, has deliv­ ered to . the peace conference a note requesting suppression of article 49 __ the peace treaty with Austria. This article authorizes the states which formerly were part of the Austro-Hun­ garian empire to pay their share of the war indemnities from private Aus­ trian properties in those states. CHINESE DEFINITELY DECIDE NOT TO SIGN THE TREATY. Washingtom-Announcement by Q-- Chinese. peace delegation in Paris tn& China would not sign the peace treaty In line with the instructionssent delegation several weeks ago by Chinese government.. These in­ structions were to refuse .to sign the treaty unless some reservation was permitted as, to Japan’s sovereignty oiver the Shantung peninsula, acquir­ ed by Germany frmn China under the treaty of 1897.. : is !the the DEGURATiON OF PROLONGED DEBATE ON OTHER FEATURES EMBODIED IN THE LEAGUE COVENANT. STfRRED OVrEB SIZE OF B Senator Borah Pessimistic Over What Other Nations May! or May Not Db In Matter of Armament and Men. Washington.—Failing to command the united support of opponents of the league of nations, the proposal for ari immediate declaration of peace by congress was blocked in the; senate foreign relations committee. After a long and lively discussion, the committee voted 12 to 4 to defer action for the present on the resolu­ tion of Senator Falls, of New -Mexico, embodying the peace declaration. Five senators opposing the league, includ­ ing Chairman Lodge, joined the league advocates in supporting the postpone­ ment motion. Although the peace declaration pro­ posal was not discussed-in the senate chamber during the day. Senator Bo­ rah aroused a three-hour debate on other issues of the treaty fight by re­ newing his attack on the league cov­ enant Citing the army bill’s pro­ vision for an army of 400,000 men, the Idaho senator declared the league would increase rather than decrease armament. “Heaven only knows what we will need if other nations do not share.' 'If we are going to exercise economic pressure on other nations tor- every little cause and if we're going to po­ lice the world, he is a driveling idiot who thinks' that means anything but a stupendous army.” GERMAN DIPLbMACY INTENDS TO PULL PLUG OUT OF PACT? Paris.—There has -been a .. wide­ spread feeling that whatever Germany might sign would. be subscribed to with more than one mental reserva­ tion. ^That conviction has been strengthened In a most definite man­ ner by events of the last few days. The pinking of the German fleet ai Scapa Flow found blunt - expression in the threat in the note to the al­ lies. In more than one French 'papei attention, is drawn to the contrast be­ tween' the Germany of a few weeks ago, apparently struggling with acute bolshevism, an^the Germany of to­ day, whose language and actions dif­ fer but little if at all from those oi the old regime. It is clear beyond argument that, just as- Admiral .von Reuter opened the seacocks of his . fleet, so in the future German diplomacy intends'te pull the plug out of the peace treaty LAST _OF 81ST DIVISION TROOPS AT NEWPORT.

JJeyond me was an open door, and be­ hind it I saw the dull glow of a stove and felt Its heat. I approached cautiously and looked In. Facing me, above a cracked and an­ cient mirror, were two rusty broad­ swords, and in the mirror I saw a large oaken table reflected. Seated at It, clothed in a threadbare coat of very "ancient fashion, was an old man with long, snow-white hair and a white, forked beard. He was busily transfer­ ring a stack of gold pieces from his right to his left side; and then he be­ gan scribbling on a sheet of paper. He paid me not the smallest attention as I entered. I perceived that the top of the table was very curiously designed. It was '^narked off with squares and columns, find In each square were figures in - black and red. Upon one end of the table at which the old man’ sat was a ..cup-shaped, circular affair of very dark !Wood—teak,’ it resembled—once deli­ cately' Inlaid with pearl. But now most of-the inlay had disappeared, Jeaving unsightly holes. At the. bottom of the cup were a Humber of metallic compartments, and the whole interior portion was revolv­ ing slowly at a turn of the old man’s "fingers. The ball stopped and settled In one of the compartments, and the old man ' took a goldpiece from one of the squares on the table, transferred a little pile of gold from his right side to his left, and jotted down some fig­ ures upon his paper. ‘ And suddenly I was aware of an abysmal rage that filled me. It seemed like an abominable dream. I had en- Vdured so much for Jacqueline, to find myself immeshed In such things in the end. I stepped forward and swept -the entire heap of gold Into.the center of the table. . “ M. Duchaine I” I shouted. "Why Uare you playing the fool here when your daughter is suffering, parsecu- • tlon?” • The old man seemed to be aware of ..my presence for the first time. He looked up at me out of his mild old . eyes and shook bis head in apparent ^perplexity. ■ 's “You ■ are welcome,monsieur,” he sad, half rising With a courtly air. “Do .'you wish..to.stake a few.pieces in a game with me He gathered, up a handful of the ? .coins, and ..pushed, them toward me. - .‘Ton see, monsieur, I have a. sys- • rtem—at least I nearly have a. system,” . .he went on eagerly. ‘.‘But it may not : ;be so good as yours. Come. ..You , shall be the banker and see if you can win my money from. me. But we shall return the stakes afterward.” . “M. Duchaine I” I shouted In his ear. “Where is your daughter?” •“My daughter?” he repeated In mild . surprise. “Ah, yes; she has gone to JNew York to make our fortune with ■the system.. But make your play, mon- ;Bleur.” 1J:.. In desperation I thrust a goldpiece jtifcon one of the numbers at the head /.of a column. The wheel stopped, and fsithe ball rolled Into, one p f'its-.com- ^partments. The- old man thrust sev- 'eral-gold: pieces .toward me. ' I staked, again andagaln and won '■every time. ,Within five minutes the SjWiole heap of golcL.pteces-lajr^at my *.............•' ' i.-r ■■■■ '■ The dotard looked at me with an ex­ pression of Imbecile terror. “You will give them back to me?’! he pleaded. I thrust the heap of coins toward him! “Now, M. D uchaine," I said ; “in return for these you will conduct me to Mile. Jacqueline.” “I am here, monsieur,” answered a voice at the door, and I whirled, to see Jacqueline confronting me. CHAPTER XIII. Some Plain Speaking. I took three steps toward her and stood still. For this was Jacqueline, but it was not my Jacqueline. It might have been Jacqueline’s grand­ mother- when she was a girl—this haughty belle with her high waist and side curls and her flounced skirt and aspect of cold recognition. She did not stir as I approached her but stood still, framed In the doorway, looking at me as though I were an unwelcome stranger. My outstretched aims fell to my sides. “Jacqueline I” I cried. “It Is I, Paul I You know me, Jacqueline?” Jacqueline Inclined her head. “Oh, yes; I know you, monsieur,” she an­ swered. “Why have you come here?” “To save you, Jacqueline I” She made me a mocking courtesy. “I am infinitely obliged to you, mon­ sieur, for your good will,” she said; “but I do not need your aid. I am with friends now, M.—M. Paul I” “Do you want to see me,' Jacque­ line?” I asked, watching her through a whirling fog. “No, monsieur,” she answered chil­ lingly. “No, monsieur!” “Do you wish me to go?” She said nothing, and I walked un­ steadily toward the door. She fol­ lowed me slowly. I went out of the room and pulled the door to behind me. I knew that after It had .closed I should never see Jacqueline again. She opened it and stood confronting me, and then burst into a flood of im­ passioned speech. ‘Why have you followed me here to persecute me?” she cried. “Are you under the illusion that I am help­ less? Do you think the friends who rescued me from you have forgotten that you exist? You took advantage of my helplessness. I do not want to see you. I hate you!” • “You told me that you loved me, and I believed you, Jacqueline,”: I an­ swered miserably, watching'the color flame Into her lovely face.. And I could see she remembered that. “When I' Was III you used me for your base schemes,” she went on with cutting emphasis. “And you—you fol­ lowed me here. Have you not had money enough? Do you want more?” I seized her by the wrists. Thus I held her at arm’s length, and my fin­ gers tightened until I saw the flesh grow white beneath them. The inten­ sity of my rage beat hers down and made it a puny thing. . “Jacqueline! Only a few nights ago you said you loved me; that you would never send me away until I wished to, go. What is it that has happened to change you so, Jacqueline?” I had her In my arms. She strug­ gled fiercely and I let her go. “How dare you, ,monsieur!” she panted. “6 0 at once, or I shall call for aid!” So I went into the passage. But be- for I reached the end of the little hall Jacqueline came running back-to me. “Monsieur!” she gasped. liM. Paul! For^ the sake of—of what I once thought you, I do not want you to be seen. You' are In ’ dreadful danger,. Comeback!” . “No, Mme. d’Epernay,” I answered, and she winced again, as though I bad struck her across the face. “For my sake,” she pleaded, catch­ ing at my arm, and at that moment I heard a door slam underneath and heavy footsteps begin slowly to ascend the stairs. “No, madame,” I answered, trying to release my arm from her clasp. “Then, for the.sake of—our love, PaulJ” she gasped. I suffered, her to -lead me back into the room. As she drew me back and closed the door behind , us'I heard the footsteps pause and tnm along the corridor. I knew that heavy gait as well as though I already saw Leroux’s hard face, before my eyes. The room was completely dark.- I heard Lerouz tramp in and his_votce mingling... with the click-cH-ek of the ball in the irouette wheel.’ ‘ “Who is here??’ he demanded. . “ I am,” answered Jacqueline. “Maudit!” he burst out explosively. ‘.‘Where is d’Epemay? I.am tired of* waiting for-him I” 1 ■ : : i ; ;* have, told'-you many, ,times, .that I do not Jotow,” answered.-Jacqueline.' ’ “How ’long j»Hl -y*ra. keep - up.' .tMs? nretensft. -TiAfftnT - «i>-, uluwwiia*-* • - . ' ' grlly. "What have yon to gain by con­ cealing the knowledge of your husband from me?” “M. Leroux, why will you not bfe- lieve that I remember nothing?” an­ swered Jacqueline. “After my father had turned M. Louis d’Epernay out of his home, whither he had come to beg money to pay his gambling debts, you brought him back. You made my fa­ ther take him back In. He wanted, to marry me. But I refused, because I had no love for him. But yon Insisted I should marry him, because he had gained you the entrance to the seign­ iory and helped you to acquire your power over my father.” “Go on,” growled Leronx1 Tilting Mb lips. "Perhaps I shall learn some­ thing.” “Nothing that you.do not already know, monsieur,” she flashed out with spirit. “My father came here, long ago, a political fugitive, In danger of death. You knew this, and you played upon his fears. You drained him of his last penny, and then offered him ten thousand dollars to gamble widi In Quebec, telling him of the delights of the city and promising him immu­ nity,” the girl went on-remorselessly. “And for this he was to assign his property to Louis, thinking, of course, that he could soon make his fortune at the tables. And Louis was to marry me, and In turn sell the seigniory to you. And so I married Louis under threat of death to my father. “Oh, yes, monsieur, the plan was simple and well devised. And I knew nothing of It. But Louis d’Epernay blurted it all out to me upon our wedding night. I think the shaine of knowing that I had been sold to him unhinged my mind, for I ran out into the snows. “Now yon know all, monsieur, for I remember nothing more until I found myself traveling back with M. Hew­ lett In the sleigh. You sz.y I was in New York. Weil, I do not remem­ ber ifc “And as for Louis d’Epemay, I know nothing of him—but I will die before he claims me as his wife I” And then I had the measure of Le­ roux. He laughed'and he beat down her scorn with scorn. “You have underestimated, your price, madame,” he speered. “Since you have learned so much I will tell you more.. You have cost me twenty thousand dollars, and not ten; for be­ sides the ten thousand paid to your father Louis got ten thousand also, upon the signing of the marriage con­ tract -So swallow that, and be proud of being priced so high! And the seigniory is, already his, and I am waiting for him to return and sell me the ground rights for twenty-five thou­ sand -more, and If I know Louis d’Epemay' he will not wait very long to g?t his fingers, round It.” “Listen to me, Simon Leroux,” said Jacqueline, standing up before him, as indomitable in spirit as he. “AU your plots and schemes mean nothing to me. My only aim is to take my fathei away from here, from you and M. d’Epernay, and let you wrangle over your spoil. There are more than four­ legged wolves, M. Leroux; there are human ones, and, like the others, when food is ecarce they prey upon each other.” “Pardieu, I like your spirit!” ex­ claimed Simon, staring at her with frank admiration. And Jacqueline’s head dropped then. Unwittingly Simon had pierced her defenses. But he never knew, for before he had time to know the graybeard rose upon his feet and rubbed his thin hands together, chuckling. “Never mind your money, Simon,” he said. “I’m going to be richer than any of you. Do you know what I did with that ten. thousand? I gave It to my little daughter, and she has gone to New York to make our fortunes at Mr. Daly’s gaming house. No, there she is!” he suddenly exclaimed. “She has come back I” Leroux wheeled round and looked from one to the other. “Diable! So that was the purpose of your visit to New York?” he asked the girl. “So—you have not quite for­ gotten that, madame! Where is the money?” Jacqueline's lips' quivered. I saw her glance involuntarily toward the door behind which I was standing. • And suddenly the. last phase- of the problem became clear to me. Jacque­ line thought I had robbed her. I stepped from behind the dodt and faced Leroux. “I have that money,” I said curtly. I saw his face turn white. He stag­ gered back, and then, with a bull!? bel­ low, rushed at me, his heavy fists aloft But he stopped short when he saw my automatic pistol pointing at his chest And he saw In my face that I was ready to shoot to kill. “You- 'thief—you spy—you: treach­ erous- hound, I’ll murder you I” he roared. The dotard, who had beSn looking at me, came forward. “No, no, I .won’t have him mur­ dered, Simon,” he protested, laying a trembling hand on .Leroux’s shoulder. “He has.almost as good a roulette system as I have.” Hewlett is forced to leave the chateau and begins new adventures.

SHOWS ERROIS IN SCALE Coast and Geodetic Survey Announces Completion of Chart Solving Old Problem — Special Inter­ est In Map. Washington.— The United States ■Oast and geodetic survey recently an­ nounced the completion of a new out­ line map of the United States on the Lambert conformal conic projection, scale 1-5,000,000. This map Is intended merely as a base to which may be added ahy kind of special information desired. The shore line Is compiled from the most recent coast and geodetic survey charts. State names and boundaries, principal rivers, capitals, and the larger cities In the differnt states are also embodied. The map Is of special interest from the fact that It is based on the snme system of projection as that employed by the armies of the allied forces In the military operations In France. To meet those requirements and at the request of the army, special publica­ tions were prepared by the coast geo­ detic survey. Many methods of projection have been designed to solve the difficult problem of representing a spherical surface on a plane. As different pro­ jections have unquestionable merit as well as equally serious defects, the announcement states, any region to be mapped should be made the subject of special study and that system of pro­ jection adopted which, will give the best results for the area under consid­ eration. Value of New Map. The Mercator projection, almost uni­ versally used for nautical charts, Is re­ sponsible for many false Impressions of the relative size of the countries dif­ fering In latitude, according to the sur- vey statement The' polyconic pro­ jection, widely used and well adapt­ ed for both topographic and hydro- graphic surveys, when used for the whole of the United States In one map has the serious defect of unduly exag­ gerating the areas on Its. eastern and western limits. Along the Pacific coast and In Maine the error In scale Is as much as 6% per cent, while at New York It reaches 4% per cent The value of the new outline map on the Lambert projection can best be realized when it Is stated that it shows that throughout the largest and most Important part of the United States, that is, between latitudes 30% degrees and 49 degrees, the maximum scale error Is only one-half of I per cent. This amount of scale error of one-half of I per' cent Is frequently less than the distortion due to the method of printing and to changes from the hu­ midity of the air. Only- In southern­ most Florida and Texas does this pro? jection attain Its maximum error of 21-3 per cent. . The Lambert projection .Is well adapted to large areas of predominat­ ing east and west dimensions In the United States where the distance across from east to west Is 14.5 times that of the distance north and south'. The strength of the polyconic projec­ tion, on the other hand, Is along its central meridian. The merits and de­ fects of the two systems of projec­ tion may -be stated In a general way as being at right angles to each other. Special Features. Special features of the Lambert pro- jection that are not found In the poly­ conic may be stated briefly as fol­ lows : I. The Lambert projection is con- formal—that is, all angles between In­ tersecting lines or curves are pre­ served, and for any given point (or re­ stricted locality) the ratio of the length o f a linear element on the earth’s surface to the length of the cor­ responding map elements is constant for all aximuths of directions In which the elements may be taken. S Fire Horse Refuses S to Be Left Behind I Philadelphia—Burglar, an ex- ^ tra horse of Truck Company f No. 13, was left behind In the r firehouse on Baltimore avenue C when firemen responded to a f fire fifteen blocks away. \4 Burglar, a big, beautiful bay, S pushed his way out of an In- ■ securely locked stall and with d Instinct traditional of fire d h o rs e s galloped unbridled A through the -streets until he m spied the fire.'

It has two axes of strength In­ stead of one, the standard parallels of the map of the United States being lat­ itudes 33 degrees and 45. degrees, and upon these parallels the scale is abso­ lutely free. The scale for any other part of the map, or for any parallel, can be obtained from special publica-' tlon No. 52, page 36, United States coast and geodetic survey. By means of these tables the very .small scale errors which exist In this pro­ jection can be entirely eliminated. The map measures 25 inches by 39 inches and will be sold by the govern­ ment at 25 cents. Praise for Italian Army in Albania New York.—Brig. Gen. George P. Scrlven, formerly chief of the signal corps of the United States army,-who was for several months attached as American military observer to the Italian forces In the field, and who recently returned from Borne, speaks enthusiastically of what he saw ' In Yalona, or Avlona, as tt-ls sometimes called, the chief port of Albania, which the secret treaty of London, In April, 1915, allotted to Italy. Valona1 he said, Is regarded by the Italians as one of the keys to the Adriatic, and their oc­ cupation since December, 1914, when troops were landed because of Internal disorder, has transformed It from a squalid fishing village to a seaport that is on its way'to attain an importance it has not enjoyed since the days of the Boman Umpire. Docks have been built, buildings have been erected, and military roads, unsurpassed anywhere, have been constructed from Valona throughout Albania by Italian engi­ neers, he said. The general described how the Prince of Wied, placed on the Albanian throne by the powers, was overthrown, and a republic set up - with Essad Pasha as president. He, too, was forced out, and the little country was left a prey to Austrian Intrigue from BIG CONCRETE DRY DOCK AT BALBOA R A 6000-tun Oe«-golng steamer undergoing repnirs in the-concrete dry lock at Balboai the Pacific, entrance to the Panama canal. This is the largest dry dock In the World- ' the north and the machinations of the pro-German King Constantine of Greece from the south. On Christmas day,. 1914, the Italian government, fear­ ing possible developments In Albania, sent the IOth regiment of bersaglleri to occupy the little fishing hamlet of Valono. Saved Albania for Allies. “By so doing,” said General Scriven, “Italy saved at least the greater part of southern Albania from the horrors of Austrian and probably Bulgar occu­ pation, and, In addition, became the deciding factor In the great ultimate success of the Balkan campaign, which now appears to have been the loose stone In the arch that upheld the Ger­ man power. “By this peaceful occupation a mili­ tary position was secured that later be­ came an important naval station for the allies, aB well as a strategic and tactical base of such Importance that had it fallen into the hands of the enemy, the great military romance of the Balkans, If played at all, would have occupied a far more narrow stage, and the whole of western Al­ bania would have been thrown open to the Germans. ■ “With the entrance of the Italians into the war, military activity In the Balkans increased. Additional forces were sent to Valona, from which as a base Italian control was extended over all southern Albania. The Italian troops, without violence, and, Indeed, at the request of the inhabitants them­ selves, occupied the Interior towns, or the ruins, as some of them then were, of Tepeleni, Argiro-Castro, Prematl, Llascovlki, Santa Quaranta, and Porto Palermo. Made Modern City of Hamlet. “When the Italians landed, Valona offered only the picture of a fishing village lying asleep in filth on the picturesque shores of what Is a really beautiful bay. “With the arrival of the Italians the town awoke as if by magic. Italy went to work to moke Valona not only habi­ table but prosperous. Government buildings rose almost In the ■ night. Docks were constructed, electric lights were "installed. Sanitation was not neglected. “To my mind the greatest accom­ plishment of the Italians In Valona, and elsewhere In Albania, lies in the splendid military roads they have con­ structed. .. General Scriven has just been in­ formed by the Italian Embassy at Washington that for, his service with the Italian armies the Grand Cross of the Crowm of Italy has been conferred upon him.” . .

Drama, Macedonia.—With a razor, a spool of cotton thread and a small portion of ether and chloroform Mlss Maria P. Kouroyen, an American Bed Cross nurse, performed a life-or-dea.th operation here as the result of which and her other errands of mercy she has come to be known as “the Amer­ ican angel” by the homeless and starv­ ing Greek refugees.

SOUf BY US. BKOG STOEi- TE MAKING STUDY OF VOLCANOES Department of Agriculture Has Taken Up New Line, Which Is Bound to . Be of Interest. The department of agriculture has begun the extensive observation of the volcanoes within Its borders and in­ sular possessions, and has recently taken formal charge of the observa­ tory on ICilauea, Hawaiian islands. Prof. T. A. Jaggar, Jr., formerly of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who has been director of the observa­ tory since its foundation, will remain in charge. The investigations at Kil- auea were begun In 1912, under the au­ spices of the Massachusetts Institute 'of Technology, and ,since 1913 have been maintained at the expense of the Hawaiian Volcano Research associa­ tion, consisting chiefly of residents of Honolulu. It is expected, that the Weather bureau’s work in volcanology will be developed in many details and eventually be extended to Alaska and other regions under the control -of the United States In which active vol­ canoes exist. Probably the majority of. clergymen Jtre poor because they preach without notes. There is reason in all things, but It’s Jiiferent/-with some people. Resuscitation Record. What is said to be (he record for re­ suscitation from drowning was accom­ plished by United States life-savers after the victim had been submerged for six minutes. Among a great many persons the erroneous belief exists that persons can be resuscitated after hav­ ing been in the water a great length of time. Cases have been known where resuscitation methods were used for hours after the drowned persons had been under water for a half-hour, or even longer. Thus it will be seen that drowning is a quick death and the hazard of the water correspondingly great. So Sudden, Dear.

As the players ap­ peared on the field he began to en­ large on their several merits. “There’s Smith,” he said; "he’s a really fine forward; absolutely first- rate!

(Prepared by the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture.) Success In the operation of a co-op­ erative bull association depends a great deal on the care .that is used in its organization. To begin with, those interested should obtain as much in­ formation as possible regarding the plan of operation and should consult with the county agricultural agent. He may be able to give valuable informa­ tion from experience, or at least will know where such Information can be obtained, and he can help greatly in starting the organization. If a coun­ ty agricultural agent is not available, write to the State Agricultural Col­ lege or to the Dairy division of the United States Department of Agricul­ ture at Washington, D. C., either of which .will be glad to give advice and assistance. It is advisable, if possible, to visit some near-by bull association in order to study the methods of oper­ ating, for the more information that is available the better will be the pros­ pects for a well-organized and success­ ful association. . Write your secretary of state, inclos­ ing a copy of Articles n and IV of the constitution suggested in this bulletin, to indicate the type of incorporation desired, and ask for blanks and all necessary Information for incorporat­ ing a bull association under the laws of the state. Mention, especially, that the organization permits only one vote for each,member. It is usually best to engage a local lawyer to assist In the incorporation. -Sign an Agreement. The territory should be mapped out into provisional districts where block's of the association may be, formed, to serve as a guide In organizing. The final arrangement of blocks cannot be definitely settled, of course, until after the association is organized and is ready to purchase bulls. In order to bring the bull association plan before the farmers it is best at the outset to explain the subject and ask each to sign an agreement somewhat like the following: We, the undersigned farmers of and adjoining territory, realizing the need of more profitable dairy cows and the importance of pure­ bred dairy bulls of good breeding, here­ by agree to enter the number of cows set opposite our respective names, pro­ vided that a satisfactory constitution and by-laws can be drawn up and adopted, that a block can be formed within reach of our farms, and that other. matters are satisfactorily ar­ ranged. Many people hesitate to sign any pa­ per, but In this case there shouId°be no hesitation, as the agreement is only the expression of a desire to form an association and receive its benefits. The list of signers is convenient in or­ ganizing an association and furnishes the names and addresses of those in­ terested when-calling a meeting. The preliminary discussion gives the pro- speitlve member, an opportunity to consider the plan before the first Im-. portapt meeting for organization is held. If possible a sufficient number of bull association bulletins should be obtained, so that each' prospective member may have a copy to study be­ fore the time for organization. After the preliminary steps have been taken, the first meeting should be called. Those who have.signed the agreement should have a personal no­ tice of the meeting, and In addition the time and place should be generally ad­ vertised. It is important to select a convenient time and place for the meeting In order to. have the largest possible attendance. More business can .be transacted' In the forming of an association'll) one hour at a well- conducfed meeting than In- a month In traveling from farm to farm. The meeting should be called to order promptly at the hour set, and each one present should remain until the neces­ sary work is completed, for It Is much better to prolong the meeting than to call Another. In other words, have as few meetings for organization as pos­ sible. Suggested Order of Business for Or­ ganization Meeting. S. Selection of temporary officers. ,3.

Selection of • tL ” H S T ent of blocks, of finances. - The first order of business is the se­ lection of a temporary chairman and secretary to hold office until a perma­ nent organization is effected. The chairman will preside ,and see that there is a full and free explanation and discussion of the ideas of each mem­ ber, so that all will have a compre­ hensive, idea of the aims of the organ­ ization. This is fundamental in a co­ operative organization. . One thing should be discussed at a time, and af­ ter everyone has had an opportunity to express an opinion the chairman should call for a vote on that point. Those present should consider all ques­ tions In a broad -way and be prepared to abide by the will of the majority. An expeditious and ’well-conducted meeting creates solidarity. The temporary secretary, of course, will record the pioceedings of the meeting, keep a record of the questions discussed and of tij* final decision as shown by the Votqk This record will be turned over eventually to the per­ manent secretary. A careful explanation of the bull as­ sociation plan should be given for the benefit of those who are not familiar with the subject. It is a great advan­ tage to have a specialist from the state college of agriculture or from the United States department of agricul­ ture to explain the plan and answer questions. As soon as the plan Is thoroughly understood the question of the breed to- be used should be definitely settled. The tendency of many farmers to change from one breed to another from year to year must not be carried into the association. It takes careful study to make progress with a breed, and when a change is made the study must be begun again for the new breed. Once selected, therefore, the breed is established permanently for the association. Btfore joining, each farm­ er should understand thoroughly that when he joins the association the breed selected is not to-be changed. It, is a great advantage for a commu­ nity to acquire a reputation for a breed of cattle, and it pays an Individual to make some sacrifices in order to use’ the breed selected , by the association. Special advertising that is too costly for a small farmer to obtain alone is possible through an association. The large number of animals In the asso­ ciation offers great opportunity local­ ly for the selection of breeding stock. Hundreds of cows are bred along the same family lines In an association,' and opportunities are offered for line breeding that are not available to in­ dividual small breeders, Theselection of the breed must be determined .,def­ initely before any further progress ,is- made toward an organization. ; It is advisable that prior to organiz­ ing the undertaking an attorney should be consulted In order that the organ- ization'shall meet all the requirements of .’the state law. Farmers’ BuUetin 993* copies of which may be obtained, so long as the supply lasts, by writing to the United Stales Department of Agriculture, Washington, D.‘ C., con­ tains a constitution and set of by-laws which will be found valuable as a guide for forming a full association.

Jn a recent issue of this paper an­ nouncement was made that Tanlac now has the largest sale of any. med- lcine of its kind in the world, and that more than twelve million bot­ tles had. been sold during the past four years. These • are unusual figures, and the question naturally arises' in the mind of the reader why this phe­ nomenal success and why has this preparation so far out-stripped all other medicines of its kind. It is only natural therefore.that the man­ ufacturers should offer some' expla­ nation to satisfy public interest. In the first place. Tanlac is man­ ufactured in one' of the largest and most modernly equipped laboratories; in this country. Its formula is pure­ ly ethical and complies with all na­ tional and state pure food and drug laws. Altogether there are ten in­ gredients in Tanlac, each of which is of recognized therapeutic value. Many of these ingredients have been individually .known and used since civilization first began, and some of them have been used and prescribed by leading physicians ev- ry where, but until they were brought together in proper proportion and association as in the Tanlac formula, humanity had not heretofore realized their full value and effect. In referring to one of the mote important ingredients of Tanlac the (Encyclopedia Britanica says: “It has long been the source of the most] valuable tonic medicines that have ever been discovered.” Inr^ferrinir to others of the general tonic drugs cbntained7in TaSilac the 13th Edition pf^Potter’s .therapeutics, a standard medical text book, states that— “they impart general tone and strength to. the entire system, in­ cluding all organs and tissues.” This same well-known authority in describing the physiological action of still another of. the ingredients of Tanlac which is of value in treating what is commonly known as a “run­ down condition7’ uses the following expression: “It is highly esteemed 'u loss of appetite during convales- C6l>ce from acute diseases.” ThJire are certain other elements in Tanutic which because x>£ their in­ fluence UtZ1Ofl the appetite, digestion, assimilation and elimination improve the nutrition vital activity of all the tissues a'^d organs of the body, and produce that, state of gen­ eral tonicity which & called health. In discussing an o th e r ingredient the Encyclopedia B ritan.’ca says: ‘ It is one of the most efficient of that class of substances which - a’c t upon the Stomach so.as to invigorate di­ gestion and thereby increase the general nutrition. It is used in dys­ pepsia’ chlorosis, anemia and various other diseases in which the tone of the stomach and alimentary canal is deficient.” Concerning still an­ other ingredient; this same(standard authority says: “It causes dilation of the gastric blood vessels, increases secretion of the gastric juice, and causes greater activity in the move* ments of the muscular layers in. the walla of the stomach. Italso tends to lessen the sensibility of the' stom- jach. and so may ijelieve gastric pain." . The United Stares Dispensatory makes the following comment re­ garding another ingredient: Itmay .be used in all cases of pure debility a f the digestive organs or where a g e neral tonic impression is required. (Dy. spepsia. atonic gout hysteria, and inte. iffiittent fever are 'among'the many * .affections in which it has provt oi useful.

Although Tanlac’s claims for su­ premacy are abundantly supported by the world’s .leading authorities, it is the people themselves who have really made Tanlac what it is Mil­ lions upon millions have used it, and have told ocher milllions what it has done for them. That is why Tanlac has become the real sensation of the drug trade in this country, and that is also why it is the most widely- talked of medicine in the world to­ day. “Tanlac is sold by leading, drug­ gists everywhere.” ADVERTISEMENT * Perfectly Simple Reason.

WiththisissueThe Record com­ pletes its twentieth yoar. Since its birth in 1899 it has changed owner­ ship but one time. Twelve years ago the present editor and owner came to Davie county and purchased the paper from E. H. Morrjs. Dur­ ing the twelve years since we took charge the paper hasn’t missed ah issue, and with one exception, has never been mailed a day late. • We have tried to make -The Record a better paper with the passing years and have spent much time, labor and money in giving the people of the county the best paper possible. From a financial standpoint the ven­ ture hasn’t been a great success, but we feel that we have done the town and county some service. It has al­ ways been our aim to boost the com- mnnity and do what we could to help every worthy cause and object. If we have made the world a little better by passing this way then we have no regrets for the dozen years that we have labored among the good people of Davie county, 'Some­ times we have felt discouraged but have never lost hope. We have made some enemies, but our friends far ou tbalance them. We have tried to give every man a square deal, and when the rich man needs a cussing we give him the same amcunt of space that the poorest. man in the county would get. We have no fav orites and ask no special favors from anyone. AU we want is a square deal. Ifyoulike The Record and want it to succeed we want your subscription. If you think it would hurt you to read . the truth th en keep your dollar—we have been get' ting along somehow without it in the past. It is not our aim to make our subscribers any rash promises, but we are going to try to make our paper worth every penny we ask for it and more. The price is very low, considering the cost of living. We don’t propose to raise the price now, but we want every one of our subscribers .to realize that it takes money to keep the paper going, and we expect them to keep their sub­ scriptions paid up. Air is a good thing to have but we can’t live on air alone. Ourthanks are due all those who have given us their pa­ tronage since coming here and we want to ask for a continuance of same. “W.S.S."

In the past I he United States has been to a great extent free from la­ bor strife and strikes to any alarm­ ing degree. We have always had a smouldering fifiht between labor and capi al, but mostly of a local nature or confined to che ,various enter­ prises and never assuming nation­ wide magnitude. The strike talk land unrest among labor is getting to present a serious problem, and one that, unless cir­ cumstances check, is going to pre sent a still more serious aspect to the country, if not a real danger to the nation's welfare. We hear of strikes on every hand. We hear of one branch of a union striking and then rumors of all affi­ liated unions striking in sympathy. We see. labor everywhere sharing the system of labor in other lines of work, all drawn together by'a com­ mon trend of sympathy and all an­ tagonistic to capital. Is it possible that socialism is going to get its fangs on the commercial heart strings of our country? It is freely talked that on July fourth a nation-wide strike will be called as a demonstration on the part of labor against the sentence of death imposed on Mooney, the great lgbor leader who is doomed by derision after decision in Califor­ nia courts. , Should this strike occur and there is no reai basis to believe that it will not. just what extent of demoraliza­ tion will ensue throughout the nation is hard to foretell. Once started just where and how it will end is a matter of serious con­ jecture. • ’ . These thihgs Can’t help but cause the people to popder as to why this state of unrest. Is it brought about by the fact that the world has been demoralized and shaken to its very foundations by the world’s largest and fiercest war. or is it caused by the pressure of the high cost of liv­ ing of the wage earner? Something is radically wrong. It’s a serious problem, but one that is growing in magnitude daily'and one that must be faced and solved.

C. W. Collette, of Charleston, S. j C., who has been visiting relatives I and friends near Cana for some time, IJf S • A Happy Evening. One of the most enjoyable occas­ ions that has happened in this part of the county was on last Saturday afternoon about 5 o’clock, when the returned soldiers of this neighbor­ hood, with their fathers,* mothers, brothers, sisters and friends began to gather at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. N. Wyatt, whose son, Rad, had just returned from service over­ seas. • For an hour or more there was continued joy in the fellowship with each other. Thqn the scene changed, and in almost a minute’s time there was seen a long table across the yard “heavy-laden” with everything good to eat that the good cooks of in every way. this neighborhood could think of. The pork furnished by Mr. Wyatt could not be improved upon. The nine soldiers were lined up on one side of the table and had first notice. Then the crowd was turned looseon the table and it >is needless to say that everyone went ’‘over the top.” Yes, “Into No Man’s Land.” After about seventy-five people had done their best there was “plen­ ty and to spare.” Soon after the inner man had been fed the people began to leave, feel­ ing that it was good that they had been there. Several of the soldiers and friends remained for a good while enjoying the music furnished by the “ Wyatt Band. There was only one thing lacking to complete the happy occasion and that was Mr. C. M. Bailey, who could not be present, and his many friends missed him. The soldiers present were as fol­ lows: Messrs. Rad Wvatt, Tom Fos­ ter, Greed Bailey, E. R. Carter, E. N. Hendrix, Steve Spry, Scott Stew art, Jack Garter and Bonce Sheets. ONE PRESENT. “W. S. 8.” The preachers, the clubs, and the good people generally are very much worried over the dancing fad that has struck this country. Every big celebration has to have a dance to be complete. If the girls and boys want to tip the light fantastic why shoulcl we worry, We have trouble enough looking' after our living ex*; penses without worrying over the folks who are able to wear hundred dollar dresses, twenty dollar shoes and thousand dollar diamonds. “IT.

Rather an interesting case has been developed in Winston-Salem. Being so near by, it is well worth publishing here. The statement is sincere—the proof con­ vincing: J. W.

",Tou seem—temporarily—to have the advantage of me,.M. Hewlett,” he said. “I respect your pertinacity, and now at last I am content In having discovered the motive of your enter­ prise. I thought you were hired by Carson. If you had been frank with me we might have come to an under­ standing long ago. “You may leave us, Mme. d’Eper- nay,” he said to Jacqueline. “No doubt your absence will spare your feelings, for we, are going to be frank in our speech.” “I thank you for your consideration, M. Leroux,” replied Jacqueline, and walked quietly out of the room. Leroux sat down heavily. “I will put down my cards,” he said. s*I have you here In my power. I have four men with me. This dotard”—he glanced contemptuously at old Du- chalne—“has no bearing on the situa­ tion. You can, of course, kill me; but that would not help you. 1Where is Louis d’Epernay?” “I have never seen the man,” I re­ plied. Leroux glanced incredulously at me. "I don’t know why you are lying to me,” he said. *1t is not to your ad­ vantage. Ton must have known that she was in New York; Louis must have told Carsoq, and he must have told you. And Louis must have told you the secret of the .entrance, un- “Listen to me!" I cried furiously. “I will not be badgered with any more questions. I have told you the truth. I met Mme. d’Epernny by’ accident, and I escorted her toward the chateau and followed her after you kidnaped her, to protect her from you.” He scowled at me ferociously, and then he began studying my face. ’ I returned stare for stare. Finally he banged his big fist down upon the table. "Well, it doesn’t matter,” he said, !‘because whatever your purpose you cannot do any harm. And you under­ stand that she is a married woman. So you will, no doubt, agree to take your money and depnrt?” “I shall go if she tells me to go," I answered; but even while I spoke my heart sank, for I had little hope. “That is easily settled,” answered Lerour. “I will bring her back and you shall hear the decision from her own lips.” He left the room, and I sat there alone beside the dotard, listening to the click of the ball and the chink of the coins and the roar of the twin cataracts above. There had been a t sinister smooth­ ness In Leroux’s latest mood. I did not trust the man, for all his blunt­ ness. I suspected something, and I did not intend to relax my guard. Leroux came back with Jacqueline before I could decide. “If you bid him, madame, M. Hew­ lett is willing to take his departure,” said Leroux to her. “Is it your wish that he remain or go?” “Oh, I want you to go, monsieur,” said Jacqueline, clasping her hands pleadingly. ' “Are you saying this of your, own free will, Jacqueline?” I cried. , She nodded, and I saw Simon’s evil face creased with suppressed mirth. I rose up. “Adieu, then, madame,” I said. “But first permit me to restore the money that I have been keeping for you.” And I took out my pocket- book. , Simon looked at me incredulously. “I do not understand you in the least now, M. Hewlett,” he exclaimed. “You are to keep the money. I do not go back upon my bargains.” “It Is not, however, your money," I retorted, though' I knew that it soon would be. Naturally I do not carry eight thousand dollars about with me.' I shall give you a check—” Leroux burst into loud laughter and clapped me heartily upon the shoulder. “Paul Hewlett,” he said with genu­ ine admiration, “you are good as a play. Well, let us take your check, and it shall be accepted in full settle- ment.” He winked at me and thrust his tongue Into his. cheek. I was too sick at heart to .pay at­ tention to his buffoonery. I sat down at the table and, taking up a pen , which lay there, wrote a check for eight thousand dollars, making It put to Jacqueline d’Epernay. This I hand­ ed to her. "Adieu, madame,” I said. “Adieu, ‘monsieur,” she answered al­ most lnaudlbly, her head bent low. I went out of the room,, still grip* ping my pistol, and I took care to let Simon see it ais. we descended the stairs side by side. The note? laugh ter In the ballroom had ceased, but I heard Baoul and Jeqn PetitJean quar­ reling, and their thick voices told me that they were in no condition to aid their master. Then there was only Leroux and PhUlppe Lacroix to deal with. I could have saved the situation.' What a fool I had been! What an irresolute fool! I never learned. As 'we reached the bottom of the stairs Philippe Lacroix came out of the ballroom carrying a candle.- I saw his melancholy, pale face twist with surprise as he perceived me. "Philippe, this Is M. Paul Hewlett,” said Leroux. “Tomorrow you will 'con- vey, him to the. cabin of Pere Antoine, where he will be able to make his own plans. You will go by way of Ie Vieil Ange. “Now, M. Hewlett, I shall show you your sleeping quarters for tonight,” Leroux continued to me, and conduct­ ed me out into the fenced yard, t Two sleighs were standing before the huts. Leroux led ..me past them and knocked at the door of the largest cabin. “Pierre Caribou I” he shouted. He was facing the door and did not see what I saw at the little window on the other side. I saw the face of the old Indian, distorted with , a grim­ ace of fury as he- eyed Leroux. Next moment he, stood cringing be­ fore him, his features a mask. -Look­ ing in I saw a huge stove which near­ ly filled the interior, and seated be­ side it the middle-aged squaw. “This gentleman will sleep here to­ night,*’ said Lefoux curtly. “In the morning at sunrise harness a sleigh for him and M. Lacroix. Adieu, M. ■■ Leroux Burst Into Loud Laughter. Hewlett,” he continued, turning to me. “And be. sure your check will never be presented.” * There was something so sinister in 'his manner that again I felt that thrill of fear which he seemed able to inspire in me. I went in with Pierre Caribou, and the squaw glided out of the cabin. There were two couches of the kind they used to call ottomans ■ In?ide, which had evidently, once formed part of the chateau furnishings, for their faded splendor accorded little with the decrepit interior of the hut I looked at my watch. . I- had thought it must be midnight, and it was only eight. Within’ three .hours I had won Jacqueline and lost her for­ ever. With Leroux In my power I had yielded and gone away. And on the morrow I should arrive at • Pere Antoine’s but Just. when he expected me. Sureiy the mockery of fate eould go no further 1». "CHAPTER XV. The Old Angel. Presently the Indian touched me .on' the Moulder and I looked up. He had a plateful of steaming stew in his hands, and set It down beside, me. “Eat!” he said in English. I was too dispirited and dejected to. obey him at first. But soon I man­ aged to fall to, and I was surprised to discover how ravenous I was. had eaten hardly anything ,for days,' and only a few mouthfuls slncfe morn­ ing. The Indian drew the stool near me and sat down. "You meet MUe.. Jacque­ line in New York?” he ..asked, nI brought her back*’-’ I:answered. "I know,” .the Indian answeried.. .“I meet Simon; drive Um from SL Bonir face to. chateau. I take Ha'rfselte Jacqueline to S t Boniface whai Ibje run ’way.

Me kill him,'one day.” , I saw a . glimmer of hope now, though of what I hardly knew; or per­ haps it was only the desire to talk of Jacqueline and hear her name upon my Ups and Pierre’s. "Pierre, I. came here to fiaye Mile. Jacqueline,” I said. '. >' "No can save him,” he answered. “No can fight against Slmqn.'' ■ “What, In the devil’s name, is his power, then?” I cried. "Le diable,” he replied. He may have m'lsunders.tpod. me, but the an­ swer was apt. “No use fight him,” he said. “All finish now. Oldtimes1Wm finish, and my gal, too. Soon Pierre Qarlbou, him finish. : No can fight- Simon. Perhaps old Pierre kill him, nobody else.” He looked steadily at me. “I poison him dogs,” he added. "What?” I exclaimed. "Simon, him tell me long ago no­ body come to chateau. So you finish, too, maybe. What he tell you, you go?”“Lacroix is going to take me to Pere Antoine’s cabin tomorrow morning.” The Indian grunted. “Simon- no mean to let you go,” he said. “He mean kill you. You know too much. Sometime he kill me, too, or I kill him.” “Pierre,” I said, taking him by the arm, “what is the Old Angel—Ie Vieil Ange?” He stared stolidly at me. " “Why you ask that?” he said. “Because Lacroix lias been Instruct­ ed to take me by that route,” I an­ swered. Pierre shook the ashes out of his pipe and rose. “Come with me,” he said. “I show you—because you • frien' of Ma’m'selle Jacqueline, Come.” -I followed him out of the hut. A large moon was just' rising out of the east but it was not yet high enough to cast much light. We traversed perhaps a mile of outer blackness. Then I began to see a gleam of moonlight in front of me, and though I had not been conscious Of any turn I discovered that we must have retraced our course completely, for I heard ttys roar of the cataracts again. Then we emerged upon a tiny Shelf of rock some forty feet up the face of the wall and quite invisible from below. It was a little above the level of the chateau roof, about a hundred yards away. Below me I could see the main entrance to the tunnel. We hsid a foothold of about ten feet on the level platform, which was slippery with smooth • black ’ ice, and ,thundering over us, so near that I could almost have touched it had I stretched out my hand, the whirling torrent plunged into that hell below. Pierre caught my arm os I reeled, sick with the shock of the discovery, and yelled into my ear above the din. “Le Viell Ange!” he cried. “This way Simon mean you to go tomorrow. Lacroix him tell you: ‘Get down, we find the road.’ He take you up here and push you—so.” - He made a graphic gesture with his arm and pointed. I looked down, shuddering, into . the black, foam- crested ' water, bubbling and whirling among the grotesque ice pillars that stood like sentries upon the brink. “What you do?” he asked. “You'go to Pere Antoine tonight? What you do now?”' I took the pistol from my coat pocket ; “Pierre,” I answered, “I have two bullets here and both of them are for Siihon. 'Tonight I had him in my power and'spared him. Now I am go­ ing back and I shall shoot,him down like a dog,/whether he is armed or defenseless.” Pierre’s face was twitching. “You no go back!” he cried. “Simon he kill you. No use to fight -Simon. Him time not come yet. When him time come he die.” "When will it come?” I asked, look­ ing at the man's features, which were distorted with frenzied hate. “I not know !” exclaimed,Pierre. - “I try find—cards tell me. No Indian man :ih. this part country remember how tell me. In old days many could tell. NowlI wait. When his -time come old Indian know. He kill Simon then-himself;-' Nobody else kill Simon. No use you try.” . . • I shpok the Indian’s hands away and plunged forward into the tunnel again. I heard him calling after me; but I think he saw that I was not to be de­ terred, ' fdr he made'no. attempt to JfoUow me. •. I (TO BE CONTINUED.)

The principal controlling parasites are ap­ parently absent or • very scarce,. par­ ticularly in the middle West. -An­ other outbreak of the pest.is expect­ ed, perhaps within the next few months.

In bad years, hundreds of thou­ sands of acres of wheat may be totally destroyed or the yield reduced as much as T5 per cent by this parasite. Named for Mercenaries. The Hessian fly Is not a native of America and nobody knows whence It caitie or how, It was noticed in 1779 on -Long Island, N. Y.. In the vicinity of the place, where ’ Lord Howe’s army, largely Hessian' mer­ cenaries, had caimped three years be­ fore. The popular belief was that the Hessians had brought the insect over in the straw used by them as bedding'on board ships. Thus came the name—and that guess is as good as any as to how the fly got here, All that can be authoritatively said is that It arrived from some transatlan­ tic country some time after the middle of the eighteenth century. The Hessian fly is one-tenth of an inch long, of an obscure dark color, and- appears‘ much like a very small mosquito. It lays a glossy red egg one-fiftieth of an inch long, from which Is hatched a maggot slightly'smaller than the egg. This; transforms into.

Front the flaxseed the adult fly emerges. Here are four forms so extremely ’unlike as to be confuting to . any except the. expert entomologist. ‘ ■ The fly usually deposits its eggs In grooves on the underside of the leaves of wheat. The larva, shortly after hatching, make! its way down the leaf and behind the Sheath, continuing in young wheat to the roots of tfie plant. In older, wheat it is able to go only to the joint below. Lairae are frequently so numerous as to be pack­ ed one against anovher. and overlap­ ping. Two generations a year, are produced. Overwintering is accom­ plished in the flaxseed stage. Destructive to Wheat. The Hessian fly/feeds chiefly'on the wheat plant, and in a smaller measnre on barley and rye. The oat plant is immune. The effect is that if infesta­ tion -begins while the wheat is young, the plant grows without stem and be­ comes a mere mass of • overgrown leaves. .

Reduce the Waste of Grain at Thrash­ ing Time. if they attend the thrashertnen’s school In their locaHtles. Every thrasherriian who is interested in sav­ ing grain, reducing idle time when his machine is out of commission, and lengthening-the '.active service of his separator, should, attend a thrasher- man’s school where he will be taught the when, why, where, and how to operate a thrashing outfit and keeping it in the. pink of forking condition. The purpose Is primarily to improve thrashing conditions. Instruction will cover the theory of the separator, the operation, care and adjustment of the machine, and sufficient laboratory work to give students skill in adjust­ ing and operating. It is contemplated to’ hold schools immediately, after or prior to the one-day grain standardiza­ tion schools, directed by the federal department’s bureau of. markets. Necessity for practical education of American thrashermen was brought out strikingly by results in Minnesota last year recording the normal waste of grain iri thrashing. Comprehensive tests, which included the work of the more than 6,500 machines in the . Go­ pher state, showed^ that the average avoidable loss in thrashing-wheat was 4.69 bushels 'a day, worth approximate­ ly .$9.64; while ’the avoidable loss in thrashing oats was 9.1' bushels daily, worth then $5.46., • Some of the ^sepa­ rators wasted as much as 50 bushels ot wheat a days- w-orth, on the basis of the October market, $103. Twenty-five per cent.-of all ,the machines tested in Minnesota showed an avoidable loss, due to the machines being out of repair or improperly adjusted, ,of 15 bushelg a day. : Therefore, Minriesdta4 today is a stanch advocate of teach-' ing thrashermen the three R’s-^run- ning, repalririg and readjusting their thrashing outfits. v KIM Canadian Thistle*.

THWART MRNY FOE SCHEMES British Offieiat Expunged "Lord of Hosts" From Lloyd George’s Speeeh as Kaiser’s “Aid de Camp" —Smuggling Prevented. The British postal censor is soon go­ ing the way of the telegraph and cable censorship—out. Judging from criti­ cisms In America, such as that of the Merchants’ association to the postmas­ ter general, the going of this war in­ stitution will be just as joyously wel­ comed abroad as In England. But whatever the petulance of those who think war restrictions have held over too long, the postal censor, In the opin­ ion of those who have .watohed his work from the viewpoint of British and allied security throughout the war, has been of the greatest serviee In defeating Germany. ( The. nearness'of the date of the de- njise of this Institution has called forth considerable information about its work. Thus far, however, there -has been no amusing side such as- was shown during the gibsequies for the cable censorship. Just after 1$r. Lloyd George succeed­ ed Lord Kitchener as secretary for war it Is related that he provided the ammunition for the censor ,to give the paragraphers a lease on war life. Mr. Lloyd George1 went to Bramshott to bid good by to a Canadian division about to cross the channel. After the inspection he made a speech from his motorcar, concluding with a quo­ tation from the Bible: “And may the Lord of Hosts be with you.” Corre­ spondents who sent their dispatches first to the censor were surprised, to find the final words of the secretary running In this fashion: “And may ---------------:-------7- be with you.” It was amusing, but also serious, in the minds of the. news writers, so they protested. However, they got their re­ ply from the censor's department: “The. kaiser, having claimetl the Lord as his aid-de-carop, no reference must be made to the Divinity in this connec­ tion.” Enemy Schemes Thwarted. As ,I said, the'postal censorship has as yet turned up no morsel of rela­ tive choiceness. The postal censor­ ship, however, has thwarted many en­ emy schemes that make just as in­ teresting or more Interesting read­ ing. Furthermore,. the British postal censorship was a much farther reach­ ing organization than was attempted in America, simply because England was -the channel through which virtu­ ally all questionable mall matter flowed. The postal censor In London was the dam which held the flood of continental mall until each portion of it could be passed upon and approved before be­ ing scattered over the wide world. An Idea of-the Immensity of the task can be obtained from the fact that a staff of nearly a hundred expert lin­ guists was constantly employed to ex­ amine and approve mail matter writ­ ten and printed In more than a hun­ dred . languages and dialects. Manu­ scripts In. every conceivable tongue found their place -In this great mass of mall, estimated at about 150,000 let­ ters dally. Much of the matt was passed with only mechanical Inspection, so sure "did the examiners become of certain cate­ gories of communications. But con­ siderable more than the time saved on harmless mail was consumed In ex-' haustlve examination and tests of questionable matter, some of which was subjected to all manner of acid and X-ray Inquiry to detect hidden messages. Smuggling Prevented. There was also for a time a great smuggling campaign, harmless looking bundles such as newspapers contain­ ing various. -aodlties then obtain­ able In enemy countries, such as cof­ fee, rice, tobacco, sugar, and so on. Some even contained rubber hiddtn be- tweep the pages of the papers. The most-sought-after evidence was that of military character,, and the censorship of mails more than repaid its expensive outlay In detecting in­ formation that might have wrought havoc with allied arms, or at least helped Germany In no uncertain de­ gree. There is little doubt that none of that character of information which the censorship obtained will be made public, but officials directing Britain’s war machines have not been slow to say that thanks to the postal censorship much valuable military information, of every conceivable character, came to their attention. Propaganda was the greatest and most constant effort of the Germans. The most harmless appearing sets of newspapers and magazines, some of them with covers dated before the war, dispatched from ifeutral nations to individuals or societies, such as sci­ entific- organizations, were often found to contain the latest German accusa­ tions of British mismanagement In Egypt, India or Ireland. Books, not al­ ways In German, were found to com lain everything except what the title proclaimed. The postal censorship to­ day possesses an intensely interesting museum of many of the propaganda carriers the Germans' sent out, or caused to be sent out from their agents in neutral countries. Voice Orders Rule Air War Development of Radio Telephone Permits Personal Direction of Fleets. PREVENTS MANY ACCIDENTS At Signing of Armistice Training In Voice-Commanded Flying Was • Well Under Way—Pilots Di­ rected From Ground. Washington.—Previous to the entry of the United States into the war, the problem of airplane radio development had received attention from the army, In August, 1910, the first wireless transmission from airplanes was made. In the years following the development of the airplane radio was carried on through a series of accomplishments* These may be summed as follows: 1912—Message transmitted from air­ plane to ground by wireless telegraph over a distance of 50 miles. 1915—Pan type of driving the wire­ less power plant on the airplane de­ veloped and adopted. 1916—Radio telegraph transmission from airplane successful over 140 Postwar activities on the thames NeKipjper Dnion With the end of the war the locks of the Thames river are becoming alive with pleasure craft again.

Talk Thousands of Miles. Contemporaneous with this was the commercial development of the radio telephone for ground and ship use by engineers of the American Telephone and Telegraph company. This culmi­ nated In a successful transmission from the naval radio station at Arling­ ton to stations thousands of miles away. In May, 1917, steps were taken to combine the experience of the engi­ neers and of the army in .developing the airplane wireless. Six weeks later the airplane tele­ phone was" a fact, and in October, 1917, a long-range -test was made. Tele­ phonic communication was carried on between airplanes in flight up to 25 miles apart and from airplane to ground up to a distance of 45 miles. The development of voice command­ ed flying was definitely begun at Gerst-. ner*field, La., In May, 1918. On June I an aerial review was given by an air fleet o t- two squadrons of 18 planes each, followed by a close order drill by a section of six airplanes. Throughout the review and the drill command was exercised by the voice of the commander flying with the fleet In September following, voice com­ manded flying was instituted at sev­ eral other fields. Avoids Many Accidents. By using the airplane radio tele­ phone in instructing aviators in aerial gunnery it was found possible to reach the same efficiency with a saving "of one-third of the time. By exercising control over pilots in the air, accidents were practically eliminated. At the signing of the armistice, de­ velopment and training In voice com­ manded flying was well under way. Numerous demonstrations were held during November and December and a fleet of 204 airplanes was maneuvered in the air at San Diego by voice com­ mand. In the practical application of the airplane radio telephone to airplanes, over 6,000 flights have been made with this apparatus in this country. In the last 2,000 flights there have been only 74 eases of airplane trouble and only 25 cases of radio trouble. Shipments of the apparatus to France In quantities began August and September, 1918, and of trained air service radio personnel in October. Had the war continued the voice-com­ manded military air unit would un­ doubtedly have made Itself felt. Cotton Selzetl in 1867 : ' ■; Is Paid for by U.

Chicago Expert Figures on Vast Exo­ dus for the Department, of Labor. Washington, D. C.-rOne: million three hundred thousand aliens In the United States are .planning to desert this country* for their 'homeland and they will take with them approximate- 4 ,000,000,000 American dollars. These facts were disclosed In a re­ port by Ethelbert Stewart of Chicago, director of the investigation and In­ spection service of the department of labor, after an investigation of pros­ pective emigration from America; • . The estimate, Mr. Stewart says? is conservative. That the aliens will take $4 ,000,000,000 is figured on the basis that the average amount each alien will carry is $3,000. An official statement from the de­ partment of labor says that up to June I investigations covered Chicago, the Indiana steel mill district (South Chi­ cago, East Chicago, Indiana Harbor, South Bend, Gary, etc.), Detroit, Pitts­ burgh and surrounding steel districts, Johnstown, Pa., Youngstown, O., and Wllkesbarre1 Pa., and surrounding coal mining area.

These facte must be kept , in mind when considering the U. S. Bureau of Markets report that on June I, 1919, there were 1,348,000,000 pounds of meats in cold storage. If the meat in storage was placed on the market it would only be 20 days’ supply. This meat is not artificially withheld from trade channels to maintain or advance prices. Meats in storage consist of— 65 per cent (approximate) bams, bacon, etc., in process of curing. It tabes 30 to 90 days in pickle or salt to complete the process. 10 per cent i9 frozen pork that is to be cored later in the year. per cent i9 lard. This is only four-fifths of a pound per capita, and much of it will have to go to supply European, needs. 19 per cent is frozen beef and lamb, part of which is owned by the Govem m m t and. w as intended chiefly for over-seas ship­ ment. I f this ^ ere all diverted to dom es-. tic trade channels, it would be only iV i lbs. per capita—a 3 'day's’ supply. 100% From this it will be seen that “meats in storage” represent merely un­ finished goods in process of curing and the working supgjy necessary to assure the consutner a steady flow of finished product.

Some years ago a Chinaman was confronted with the problem of secur­ ing a donkey, without available means' Io purchase it with. He had a'number af children and would not be able to support them unless he could secure the animal with'which to work, in his attempt to keep starvatlorf from his door. - On pondering the matter he decided that the donkey could serve his pur­ pose- better than could any one of the chVdron In the family. He therefore arranged an exchange, giving a son of his into slavery that he might gain possession of the animal as a means sf support for the rest of his family. 2t happened that the lad was rescued Srom the life of slavery and placed In a Methodist institution. Quite recently one of our Methodist missionaries had occasion to address She student body of a large Chinese school. His interpreter won his ad­ miration by Iiis quickness and by his accuracy, .and he inquired into the matter. The missionary discovered Shat this was the little boy who-had at one time been exchanged for. a donkey, grown into young manhood and. beginning a professional career of large usefulness to that community of'his needy people.—The Methodist.

Don’t lose a d a y ’s WOrk| , In dress accessories Fashion can In- Iulge her fondness for caprice with greatest certainty of success. Modistes who turn. out the beautiful hats of midsummer, take advantage of this and occasionally take the. same mate­ rials they have used for millinery to make bags; They help to furnish va­ riety in these indispensable belong­ ings and demonstrate how chic hats and bags to match may be. Even the happy owner of a fine bead bag might cast approving eyes upon these match­ ed sets, for novelty makes the strong­ est kind of appeal and she who may not have the much-admired bead bng may achieve a triumph in one of these millinery affairs. Every woman knows the loveliness of leghorn' hats. They have come down to us through generations Of fair wom­ en. In the picture one of- them has ■ sacrificed Its straw crown and pe- placed It with one of draped taffeta, with a rose and Immortelles posed at the front. In. the bag to match, a plaque of leghorn makes the bottom of a bag of taffeta like that on the crown of the hat and we infer that it is made from the top of the original crown. A big silk tassel hangs from this plaque. Bands and puffs Of tal feta finish the top of the bag and form its handle. A rose and immortelles appear again on the bag as on the hat. It was a bright idea of the de­ signer to pose these little everlasting flowers on leghorn. . Two colors In a faille ribbon are set together to form the handsome bag at. the center of the picture. The colors alternate and the point at the bottom is set off with those fashionable little, flower-like straw ornaments that have held good throughout the season, In millinery. The hat to match has a braid brim and ribbon crown, the rib­ bon woven ‘over1 and under* abou.t the wide crown -.and lying In strips on the top. The same small straw orna­ ments nestle, against the brim. The daintiest of these sets is work­ ed out in hair braid. It appears at the right In a' hnt with hair braid brim and crown, draped with a striped rib­ bon and trimmed with roses. The bag Is made of two plaques of hair braid, joined by a puff of ribbon like that on the hat and lined with satip. Velvet ribbon is used for the handle and bow on the bag and flow­ ers find it the best of all back­ grounds. rate Skirts, J f * It is gala day for separate skirts. They appear this summer in all sorts of fabrics for nearly all sorts of occa­ sions. Starting out as purely practical and utility garments, they progressed into the morb practical of dressy after­ noon clothes, and then advanced into the smartest , of sport wear. The ad­ vent of new' weqves in silk boosted the :caiise of the separate skirt alpng, and "now no fabric is too sheer and dainty to make the dressiest of these conven­ ient belongings. Organdie, voile, geor­ gette crepe lend a summery charm to them. Occasions where one wishes to be sraartiy but informally dressed seem to multiply and the separate skirt fits in with them perfectly.- The two skirts shown In the picture are of fantasi silk and are worn with georgette blouses. The heavy rib and lustrous surface of this silk take the place- of. trimming. By using the silk so that the rib'In-it runs one' way In the skirt and another In' bands' or gir- dle, there is all the ornament that godo designing requires; This is Ulustrated in the skirt-model at the left In which the wide girdle-is made of alternating bands of the silk, two of theni witb the rib running perpendicularly set to­ gether and edged by' narrow bands. in which the rib is horizontal. There are small set-in pockets at each side. Silk In two colors and of t'-’o kind* gives a good account of itself In the skirt at-the right of the picture. The lower part of the model Is of colored fantasi silk, set- onto a plain white satin yoke at the hip line. The join Ing is managed well by cutting the top of the fantasi portion into a “battle ment” line. There are .five small pearl buttons at the front of the skirt near tlie bottom and its wide girdle of the fantasi silk fastens wjth two very lam pearl buttons'at the front. ® There’s no. reason why a person should take, sickening, salivating calo­ mel when a few cents. buys a large bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone—a per­ fect substitute for calomel..

July 4th was a big day in Mocksville, and people were here from all parts ,of the county, and from some of the surrounding coun­ ties The crowd is estimated at about 2,500, and they were all sane, sober and in their right mind. The Junior Order of Mocksville, assisted by the other councils in the county and the good people generally, were here to welcome Davie county’s re­ turned soldiers. A large number of the boys in kbaki were here to enjoy the day. The exercises were held at Clement Grove and began about 10:30 o’clock. TheCooleemee band furnished the music, which was first-class in every way, and the band boys in their new uniforms, presented a neat appearance. Da­ vie county is proud of this iive bunch of musicians. Dr. Chas. E. Brewer, PresidentofMeredith College, Ra­ leigh, delivered an address at 11 o'clock. Among the local speakers were Lieut.-J. K.Sheek. M. F. Booe, C. G. Hutchens, Supt. J. S. Stroud, of Cooleemee, and others. Rev. E. P Bradley conducted the opening exercises. The. addresses by these gentlemen have been high­ ly complimented. The dinner which was spread at 12:30, was the chief feature of the occasion. The soldier boys were loud in their praises of the good things spread before them. There were 123 baskets contributed for the occasion, and after all pre­ sent were filled, many- baskets full were taken up. It was a dinner longtoberetnembered by all pre­ sent. At. 2:30 o'clock the soldier boys, under command of L'eut. Sheek, marched and drilled for about half an hour. The day was well spent and enjoyed by the big crowd.

The progressive and wide awake tolk ol Fulton township have been holding meetings in the Fork A- cadetny, formulating plans and ap­ pointing committees on the differ­ ent departments preparatory to holding a community fair at this fall. (Date to be fixed later.) We were pleased to have with us in our meeting last Saturday, our County Farm Demonstration Ag- ent. Mr. Reeoe is very enthusias tic over our coming fair, and his presence impartB enthusiasm to those of ub who are appointed to work with him. We are hoping to have the hearty co-operation of every per- son in FnltonaTownship. Also ad joining townships. Th'at a good fair is helpful in a great many- ways to the people who reside in the district where one is held does not admit of ar­ gument. It is a recognized fact. It brings together, the people of that section in closer relationship, and gives them a chance to see in a short time what is being done by their neighbors, also by an ex change of ideas and methods, with the opportunity to observe the re­ sults fdrmers, stock-raisers, poul­ try men, and men in other lines of industries are helped. This does not apply to the activ ities of out-door industries only, but to domestic and economic which includes canning, preserv­ ing. pickling, etc, pantry and dairy supplies, arts and crafts which take in needle and fancy work. Aside from the educational fea­ ture, it is helpful to us to take a day off at least once a year from our business cares, and mingle in social intercourse upon a common meeting-ground where we may re­ new old acquaintances and form new ones. It is restful and re-| freshes our minds, and we should not forget that they need rest and refreshment at times as well as our bodies. 1 It lengthens one’s life as well, by- breaking its monotony. We hope soon to have our premium lists ready for distribution so our folk can see what to. plan for ex hibition. We are looking forward to having our Academy, remodel­ ed in time for the Fair. ' MRS.

THE PEOPLE'S RIGHTS MAiNTAIN; UNAWED BY INFLUENCE AND UNBRIBED BY GAOL" VOLUMN XXL MOCKSVILLE. NORTH CAROLINA. WEDNESDAY. JULY 16. 1919.NUMBER I Own Yonr Home. Statesviile Sentinel. Fiiul a place where the majority of its citizenship own their own JllMiirs and yon will find a town where tlie unsettled conditions in­ cident to a •floating element do not exist, Statesville, very fortunately, has :i large part of its population liv­ ing in their own homes, bnt the jxM fentage is not yet large enough. livery mau inherits the right to have a home. It is his privilege anil in every man there is planted a desire to sleep beneath his own roof. Unfortunately many can not, or have not been able to do this. If they conld they would be better citizeus. They would be anchored and become a fixed part of the community, whereas if they have no tie that binds them to the com­ munity in which they live, they may break away from their moor­ ings at the first gust- of 'discontent that comes their way. The buildiug and loan associa tious so far have proven to be the greatest instrument and aid to the poor man, bat even this organiza­ tion is aot able to meet the situ­ ation as it should be met. In Statesville today there are hundreds of substantial families that want to assume the responsi­ bilities of buying a home, but the means of securing funds at their disposal are not near adequate enough to accomodate only a small per cent of them. VVe fully believe that every state and town wonld profit greatly by passing laws that would furnish city or state aid to help in home building. It is true the United States gov-' eminent has at last seen the wis dom of aiding the farmer on his own farm, but even this Bystem has its drawbacks. A man must be pretty substantially fixed before he can borrow money from the feder­ al farm loan association. He can only borrow fifty per cent of the value of his farm then, In the city the man who is for- tunate enough to secure buildiug and loan aid can do Bomie better. He can. Becure up to perhaps 75 per cent of the actual value of his home. But so often he cannot se­ cure the loan. It is a well known fact to the poor man and even so with the rich man that can recall the day when he was poor, that the first few hundred dollars are the hard dollars to get. After a nest egg haB been layed by then the sled­ ding is not so hard. The more hundreds you have the easier you cau borrow. But what we need today, if we are to have the number ot home owners that ‘ we should have, iB some system that will help the hon tst head oi the family get that firBt few hundreds that is so essential aB a stepping stone on the road to home ownership. Again we say that any town, if it was possible, and it should be, could well afford to devise some system that would place at the dis­ posal of every citizen an opportuni­ ty to move into and pay for his own home. Too Much Patriotism. In its issue of June 13, the edi­ tor of the Sullivan Gonnty Devel oper anuounced that that was- the last issue of that valuable publica­ tion until the people oi Blnff City and vicinity become'willing to sup­ port a paper or until 'the editor gets able to again, publish it with­ out pay. Too much patriotism has proved the ficancial injury jJifrihQre papers than one, says Bill Jfjlont-- gcmery, of Tennessee. ' i:' Our derbies off to that Southern woman who soundB the. true note of suffrage when she demands eith er “a Votel Or a voter.”—Buffalo EveniDg Hews. From The Monroe Enquirer. Secretary of State Grimes puts out the word that the cards bear­ ing the words ‘‘In Transit’’ or “li­ cense Applied For,” which have so frequently been put on automo biles in lieu of license tags, will not longer be tolerated. It is sus­ pected that the card bearing the words “ License Applied For” and attached to the rear end- of a car did not bear the whole truth, and in all probability no truth at all, although the owner and driver of ,the car always stood up and was counted among the saints when some qvangelist called for a show down of saints and sinners.- A certain North Monroe citizen had heard that billy goats kept about the premises would ward off disease. When the “fin” broke out to 6uch an alarming extent last fall he bought two billy goats, kept them in his houee and he and his family made bed fellowB of them during the great epidemic which 3wept the country. When the epidemic of “flu” had passed the man traded one of .the goats for a plug mule and made a fine trade. About the billy goats pre­ venting the ‘ flu” did you ask I Well, not one of the folks in that house who made companions of the goats had an attack of influenza:. That’s a fact. Ex-Secretary McAdoo says that it was the railroads that won the war. It will be remembered that Mr. McAdoo had charge of the railroads during a part of the fighting days. Some of these days Mr. McAdoo will die but modesty will not be put down as the cause of his death. The railroads won the war indeed I Th ey helped, to be sure, but it is' 'the most - top- loftical assumacy to claim that they won the war. There were many contributing causes to the winning of the great war, but “ the” cause, the one thing which won, was the American soldier and for a swivel chair occupant to be claiming that it was the railroads, the head-knocker of which he was made by his own dady-in-law, is preposterous. Well it has been said that fidelity and true conrage do no boasting. Those who do the least are generally the ones who do the most boasting. To Cure a CcId In One Day. Take TlAitATrVP. BROMO Quinine.

The iJody of former justice Eu­ gene A. Brown, sixty-five years old, missing a ’week, was found on the mountain near Brownville1 Md., where he had taught school many years. A bullet ,hole was in his temple. A revolver containing one empty cartridge shell lay by his side, with Beveral empty drug bottles and deep gashes were.in his legs, self-inflicted with a razor. He had evidently shot himself, swallowed a drug and opened his veins. Ba sides telling friends he intended to “end italJ,” he wrote a letter as follows: “Disappointment in love, added to inhuman treatment of my chil­ dren, for whom I loyally and un­ swerving ,devoted the best years of my life, compels me to take this rash step of suicide. The hypo­ thetical hell of Dante’s imagina­ tion can not be worse than the tor­ ment I am now enduring.” Summer Complaint in Children. There is not, anything like so many deaths from this disease ,now’ as before Chamberlain’s Colic and DiarrhoeaReme- dy came into such general use. When this remedy is given with castor oil as di­ rected and proper care is taken as to diet, it is Safe to sav that fully ninety-nine out of every hundred cases recover. Mt. W; G. Campbell of Butler, Tenn., says, "I have used Chamberlain’s Cohc and. Diarrhoea Remedy for summer .complaint in child­ ren It is far ahead .of anything I have ever used for this purpose ” Wilkes Beats Richmond. Much has been said of the schtiql record established by a girl in {the Richmond, -Ya.. public schopls Report has it that at the closes oi the last school year she fiaishbj£Vfr perfect record of eleveD ye^rs. During all that time she had Jnot misBed a day or been marked tardy a single time. The BichcdQnd News Leader calculates that;;;two thousand, three hundred audited times she got up in the morfiifag and made school before the I bell rang; And when the feat: whs announced before four thousand people at the High School com­ mencement in Biehmond there was tremendous applause. It was a record worthy of the praise bestowed. That little Rich­ mond girl deserves a medal of hon­ or just as much aB any soldier that went over the top in France. She haB set an, example that will be in­ spiring to all the children of Rich ­ mond. Not .one in a million ever achieves snch distinction. Itis no meanfet to walk to school mere than two thousand times and get there every morning with .,bright and shining face. It took a plucky girl to do it, and.a lucky girl as well. She was never too ill to go; She took careot her health.. It is a safe bet that she didn’t frequent the dope fountains and was never up late at night. We’ll wager she dressed • sensibly too. When disease was abroad in Richmond she didn’t disobey the warning of the health department. She was never found in crowded theatres when an epidemic was threatened.' But with all that, Richmond has nothing on Wilkes county. Wil­ kes has a population more,Jfchbn six times as small as Richmond. It i3 ragged, muddy and tough sled­ ding for the school boy generally. But there are two members of the Caudill family up in WilkeB whose combined attendance of twenty one years at the pnblic school in their neighborhood has been with out a blot. One is a boy, the oth­ er is his sister. The boy has beat the school bell to it eleveu years withbut a day missed or a tardy mark. The girl has made a per­ fect for ten years. Ihe boy won bis diamond medal not long ago. With good lack, IittleMiss Caudill will get hers next year, In addi tion to these two, there are eight boys and four girls in Wilkes who have gone seven successive years without a break. As the Raleigh Times casually remarks, we do these thiDgs as a matter of coarse in North Carolina. The circumstance is passed on to Richmond as showing .what an of­ fense we wonld be to the world if we told half our virtues.—Win­ ston Journal. Summer Complaint Quickly Re­ lieved. “About two years ago when suffering from a severe attack of summer com­ plaint, I took Chamberlain's Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy and it relieved me al­ most instantly,” writes Mrs. Henry Jew­ ett, Clark Mills; N. Y. This is an excell­ ent remedy for colic and diarrhoea and. should.be kept at hand by. every family. Theoldtiine girl that blushes when spoken to now has a grand­ daughter whose only difficulty with blnBhes is to keep them on straight. ; % - . . Loss of Appetite. - As a general rule-there is nothing se­ rious, about a loss of appetite, and if you skip a meal or only eat two meals a day for a few days you will soon have a relish for your meals when meal time conies. Bear iii.mind that at" least five hours should always elapse between meals so as to give theifQsdi ample time to digest and the’Wto&acti tf period'of rest before a second meal is taken. Then ir you eat no more than,you crave and take a reas­ onable amount of-outdoor exericise every day you will not need to. worry abeist your appetite.- When the loss of aDpetite is: caused by constipation. as is often the ca8e,-that Bhould-be corrected atonce. A dose of Chamberlain’s Tablets will.de it. That Michigan Election. We refered in last week’s Times Leader to .the state election in Mi­ chigan and again this week we do it chiefly' from our desire to keep oar Democratic friends posted in regard to the political drift, for they have not been able to learn anything about the result of this election from any of the southern Democratic papers. We hope 0111 Democratic friends will appreci­ ate our thoughtfulnesss in theii behalf, Women voted in the April election in Michigan for the first time, greatly swelling (almost dou bling) the total voting strength ol the state. Now let us examine the election returns in the recent election as compared with the re turns tor the state in the 1916 el-, ection—the last- presidential elec tion year. In 1916 the Democrat ic vote was 282,993, in the election last month with the women voting —bnt evidently voting the Repub­ lican ticket—the Democratic vote fell to 221,831 a loss in the- total vote of more than 62,000. Now listen while we tell a very differ­ ent story. In 1916- the Republi­ can vote in the state was 337,962, whereas in the election last month the tremendons total of 50634e was rolled up for the Republican ticket The woman in Michigan, judging from their voting, seem to remem­ ber that “he kept us out of war,” and some of the men, too, for in no other waj is it easy to explain the actual falling off in the Democrat­ ic vote. The figures woman, vote, and part of the Democrats voted the Republican ticket. We give oar Democratic exchanges permis­ sion to publish this article for the imformatson of their readers,—-Ex. Says Tanlac Has Overconie His TronbIes And He Feels Like A New Man. “I feel that it would be helping others to tell what Tanlac has done for me,” said Rev. A. J. Vajlery, living at 834 Chelsea Ave,, Memphis, Tenn. "About three years ago,” he con­ tinued, "I had a general breakdown that made me very nervous. I had a sour stomach and would spit up undigested food. The pains in my stomach hurt so at times that. I thought they would kill me. I also suffered with rheumatic pains in my joints and my kidneys were in bad shape, my sleep was poor and I felt so tired all tne time that I could not do my work. "Since taking Tanlac I have been relieved of- indigestion . and those pains are all gone. My kidneys don’t trouble me any. I am not ner­ vous Iike I was and I can sleep fine every night. My strength and en­ ergy have been restored and I feel like a new man.” "Tanlac is sold by leading drug­ gists everywhere.” ADVERTISEMENT Chamberlain’s Cholic and Diar­ rhoea Remedy.

A large number of our Democrat­ ic brethren in Davie are always yell­ ing about the Republicans wasting so muffeh of the people’s money, pay­ ing big salaries, etc. - As the public knows, the Board of Education in Davie county has been composed of Democrats for lo. these many years The last legislature passed a law that the Board of Education should consist of two Democrats and one Republican, and that the said Board should elect the County Superinten­ dent of Public Instruction, who nat­ urally would be a Democrat This election took place on July 7th. The Republican member, of the Board presented the name of Rev. S. W. Hall, of Cana, a Baptist minis­ ter, who is well qualified, in every way to fill this position with honor to himself, the schools and the coun ty. Mr. Hall agreed to accept the position for the sum of $800 per year. We understand that the Board ignored his application aqd re-elect­ ed E. P. Bradley at asalary of $1,200 per year. The Record doesn’t know Mr. Hall’s political faith and affili­ ations, and it doesn’t give a snap what they are, but we believe, that we know exactly what party Mr. Bradiey belongs to. But asidefrom this matter, the taxpayers are going to have to spend or throw away four hundred dollars a year.

The Board of Road Commissioner?, at their meeting last Tuesday, made a contract with Graham and Roach, road contractors to build 11 miles of sandclay roads.in Davie county. The road from Cana to Pino, thence to Farmington, and the road from Mocksville to near Mud Mill, is to-be built at once. Work of surveying was begun last .week and the work of building the Mud Mill road will begin this week. The cost of these roads will be 44 cents pet yard for grading and 60 cents per yard for tip soiling. The;Commissioners or­ dered that the road from, Liberty church to Gladstone, be accepted as a public road, and that the grading on same be finished at once and that the top-soiling be done as practic­ able. An order was also passed that the road from Mocksville by the county home to Vicker’s store, be graded as soon as first money be­ comes availabie. The road from Mocksville to Advance, via Cornat- zer and Bixby, is being built and Ai miles of this road has been graded and topsoiled. Ordered that the road leading from Bailey’s Ferry road via Sparks mill place to Alf Hartman’s mail box, be surveypd and relocated N. S. Mullican was employed as road engineer, and J. B. Yokeler be employed as assistant. Ordered that road from. Farming­ ton to Jamestown be relocated. No further business the meeting ad­ journed to meet again Tuesday, al­ ter.the first Monday in August. “W,S. S.” That League* of Nations. Talking with a Democrat the' oth er day, he expressed surprise when we told him that England would have six votes in the League of Na­ tions to only one for the United States. He thought we must be wrong when we told, him tb'at ar­ ticle 10 of the covenant of the league bound every member nation of the league to guarantee the territorial iitegrity of every other member of the league—the league bound every member nation of the league to place at the disposal of the league her army, navy and her resources to do this very thing. First that it placed the world in a straight jack­ et, that under this arrangement there can be no progress. No new aspiring peoples can set; up govern­ ments of their own as this country did. 140 years ago. Everv nation would be bound by this league to crush all aspirations for indepen­ dent. government. A free Canada a free Ireland a free Aus’ralfa will be an impossibility under this league of nations Their fate is sealed— forever to remain under ’ such yoke as' England puts on their 'necks. Should Canada aspire to political in­ dependence the: young manhood of America would be marched, under the compelling power of this league across the border not to help our Canadian brotuers as our patriotic iostincts would lead them to do. but would be marched across -to fight agai.nst the Canadians, for the Iegue of nations says the territorial status o[uo must be maintaihed. This is just what article 10 of the league of nations proposes to do and no liitel- ligent roan can deny it. The trouble witn most Democrats is that they read nothing but Democratic papers and they cannot get all the facts from these'papers because they will not publish all the facts.

The Fresident Cives an Account of His Stewardship Before Crowded Senate; Received With Tumultuous Applause, And Heard Wtih Rapt Attention. GHEftTER PART OF ADDRESS DEVOTED TO LEAOUE OF NATIONS * I Succinctness Rather Than Verbosity Marked the Composition of the Address Which Will Go Down Into History as One of the Most Remarkable Documents of Any Age. W ashington—President Wilson laid tie peacetreaty with Germany before the senate without attempt to explain its specific terms. His address, which required *0 minutes for delivery, was devoted almost wholly to the league of nations. American isolation, the president said, ended 20 years, ago at the close of the war with Spain. Fettf of Amer- can motives now also had ended, he declared. “There can he no Question of our ceasing to be a world power," said Mr. Wilson. “The only question is nhetber we can refuse the moral lead­ ership that is offered us, whether We shall accept or reject the confidence o fthe world.” The war and the peace conference In his opinion, the president said, had already answered that question, "and nothing but our mistaken action can alter it." After the end of the great war, the president said, "every enlightened judgment demanded that, at whatever cost of independent action, every gov­ ernment that took thought for Its people, or for justice or for ordered freedom, should lend itself to a new purpose and utterly destroy the old order of international politics." Text of Address. President Wilson, in presenting the peace treaty and the league of na­ tions to the senate, spoke as follows: Gentlemen of the Senate: The treaty of peace with Germany was signed at Versailles on the 28th of June. I avail myself of the earliest opportunity to lay the treaty before you for ratification and to inform you with regard to the work of the confer­ ence by which that treaty was formu­ lated. The treaty constitutes nothing less than a world settlement. It would not be possible for me either to sum- Airize or to construe its manifold provisions in an address which must of necessity 'be something less than r. treatise. My services and all the information I possess will be at your disposal and at the disposal of your committee on foreign relations at any time, either informally or In session, as you may prefer; and I hope that you will not hesitate to make use of them. I shall at this time, prior to your own study of the document at­ tempt only a general characterization of its scope and purpose. In one sense, no doubt, there is no need that I should report to you what was attempted and done at Paris. You have been daily cognizant of what -was going on there—of the prob­ lems with which the peace conference had to deal and of the difficulty of laying down straight lines of settle­ ment anywhere on a field on which the old lines of international relation­ ship, and the new alike followed so intricate a pattern and. were, for the most part, cut so deep by historical circumstances which dominated ac­ tion where it would have been best to ignore or reverse them. The cross currents of politics and ,of interest must have been evident to- you. It would be presuming in me to attempt to explain the questions which arose or the many diverse elements that en­ tered into them. I shall attempt I something less ambitious than that and more clearly suggested by my i duty to report to the Congress the I Part it seemed necessary- for my col- i leagues and me to play as the repre- | eentatives of the government of the United States. Thst part was dictated by the role I America had played in the war and I by the expectations that has been I created in the minds of the peoples I xrtIh whom we had associated our- I selves in that great struggle. The United States entered the wftr ttPon a different footing from every other nation except our associates on this side of the sea. We entered it, Pot because our material interests Were directly threatened or because ®hy special treaty obligations to which were parties had been violated, t only because we saw the suprem- 4cy’ ai>d even the validity of right cvWywhere put in jeopardy and free K°Vcrnment likely .to be everywhere ^Perilled by the intolerable aggres- n»m, °* a poWer which, respected Yer right nor obligation and whose TirtLsy3tftm 01 SorVeVnment flouted the 01 lbe citizens as against the autocratic authority of its governors. And in the SetGement -of the peace we have sought no special reparation for ourselves, but only the restoration of right and the assurance of liberty everywhere that the effects -of the settlement were to be felt We en­ tered the war as disinterested cham­ pions of right and we interested our­ selves in the terms of the peace in no other capacity. . The hopes of the nations allied against the central powers were at a very low ebb when our soldiers began to pour across the sea. There was everywhere amongst them, except In their stoutest spirits, a sombre foreboding of disaster. The war ended In November, eight months ago, but you have only to recall what was, feared' in midsummer last four short months before the armistice, to realize what it- was, that our timely aid accomplished alike for their morale and their physical safety. The first, never-to-be-forgotten action at Chateau Thiefty1 had already taken place. Our redoubtable soldiers and marines had already closed the gap the enemy had succeeded in opening for their advance upon Paris—had al­ ready turned the tide of battle back towards the frontiers of France and begun the rout that was to save Eu­ rope and the world. Thereafter the Germans were to ’ be always forced back, were never to thrust success; fully forward again. And yet, there was no confident hope. Anxious men and women,-leading spirits of France, attended the celebration of the Fourth of July last year In Paris out of gen­ erous courtesy—with no heart for festivity, little zest for hope. But they came away with something new at ■their hearts; they have themselves told us so. The mere sight of nor men—of their vigor, of the confidence that showed itself in every movement of their stalwart figures and every turn of their swinging march, In their steady comprehending eyes and easy discipline, in the'indomitable-air that added spirit bo everything they did— made every one who saw them that remarkable day realize that something had happened that was much -more than a mere incident in the fighting, something very different from the mere arrival of fresh troops. A great moral force' had flung itself into the struggle. The fine physical force of these spirited men spoke of some­ thing more than bodily vigor. They carried the great ideals of a free peo­ ple at their hearts and with that vision were unconquerable. Their Tery presence brought reassurance; their fighting made victory certain. They were recognized as crusaders and as their thousands swelled to millions their strength was seen to mean salvation. And they were fit men to carry such a hope and make good the assurance it forecast. Finer men never went into battle: and their officers were worthy of them. This is not the occasion upon which to utter an eulogy of the armies America sent to France, but perhaps, since I am speaking of their mission, I may speak also of the pride I shared with every American who saw or dealt with them there. They were the sort of men America would wish tc claim as fellow countrymen and com­ rades in a great cause. They were terrible In battle, and gentle and help­ ful out of it, remembering the mothers and the sisters, the wives and the^ lit­ tle children at home. Ttey.^ erel r®ir men under arms, not forgetting their ideals of duty in the midst of tasks of violence. I am proud to have had the privilege of being associated with men and of calling myself their But I speak now of what they meant to the men by whose sides they fought and to the people with whom ity, as friends who ^ked only to be of service. They were for alltne visible embodiment of America they did made America andallthat she stood for Si living reality in thoughts'not -J the people, o Prance, but also of tens of miHons Cf men and women ,throughout al^the toiling nations of a- world s everywhere in peril of its of the loss of everything it held de ^ in deadly fear that its honds were never to be loosed, its hopes fore to be mocked and disappointed- And the compulsion of what th y s to f d for was upon us who represent- ed America at the peace table was our duty to see to it thatevery decision we took, part In so far as we were able to tafluenne it. to quiet the fears and " J J e * hopes of the peoples who had been living in that shadow, the nations that had come by our assistance to . their freedom. It was our duty to do everything that it was within our power to do to make the triumph of freedom.. Old - entanglements. of every kind stood in the way—promises which governments had made to one anoth­ er in the days when might and right were confused and the power of the victor was without restraint. Entan­ glements which contemplated any positions of territory, any extensions of sovereignty that might seem to be to the interest of those who had .the power to insist upon them, had been entered into, without thought of what the iieopTes concerned might'wish , or profit by; and.these could not always ibe honorably brushed aside. It was not easy to graft the new order of ideas on the old, and some of the fruits of the grafting may, I fear, for a time be bitter. But, with very few exceptions, the men who sat with us at the peace table desired as sincerely as we did to get-away from the bad influences, the illegitimate purposes, the demoralizing ambitions, the inter­ national counsels and expedients out of which the sinster designs of Ger- mnay had sprung as a.natural growth. H had been our privilege to formu­ late the principles which were accept­ ed as. the basis of the peace, but they had been accepted, not because we had come tif^Kasten - and assure the' victory and insisted" upon them, but because they were readily acceded to as the principles to which honorabi*. and enlightened minds everywhere had been bred. They spoke the conscience of the world, as well as the conscience of America, and I am happy to pay my tribute of respect and. gratitude to the able, forward-looking men with whom it was my privilege to co-oper­ ate for their unfailing spirit of co-op­ eration, their constant effort to accom­ modate the interests they represented to the principles we were- all agreed upon. The difficulties, which were many, lay In the circumstances, not often in the men. Almost without ex­ ception.-the: men who led had caught the true and full vision of the prob­ lem of peace as an indivisable whole, a problem not of merely adjustments of interests, but of justice and right action. The atmosphere in which the con­ ference worked seemed created, not by the ambitions of strong govern­ ments, but by the hopes and aspire, tions of small nations and of peoples hitherto under bondage to the power that victory had shattered and de­ stroyed. Two great empires had been, forced into, political bankruptcy, and we were the receivers. Our task was not only to make peace with the central empires and remedy the wrongs their -armies had done. TTie central empires had lived in open vio­ lation of many of the rights for which the war had been fought, dominating alien peoples over whom they had no natural right to rule, enforcing, not' obedience, but veritable bondage, ex­ ploiting these who wffije'weak for the benefit of those who were masters and overlords only by force of arms. There could be no peace until the whole order of central Europe was Bet right. That meant that new nations were to be created—Poland, Czecho Slo­ vakia, Hungary itself. No part of an­ cient Poland had ever in any true sense become a part of Germany, or of Austria, or of Russia. Bohemia was alien in every thought. and hope to. the monarchy of which she had so long been an artificial part; and the uneasy partnership between Austria and Hungary had been one rather of interest than of kinship or sympathy. The Slavs whom Austria had chosen to force into her empire on the south were kept to their obedience by noth­ ing but fear. Their hearts were with their kinsmen in the Balkans. These were all arrangements of power, not arrangements of natural union or as­ sociation. It was the imperative task of those who would make peace and make it intelligently to establish a new order which would rest upon the free choice of peoples, rather than upon the arbitrary authority of Haps- burgs or Hohenzollerns. More than that, great populations bound by sympathy and actual kin to Rumania also were linked against their will to the conglomerate Austro- Hungarian monarchy or tomther alien sovereignties,yand- it was port,of. .the, task of peace to make a new Rumania as well as a new Slavic state cluster­ ing about Servia.And no natural fronties could $e found to these new fields of adjust­ ment and redemption. It was neces­ sary to look constantly forward to other relatcdvtasks. Thq Gemmvcol- onies were to be disposed of. _ They had not been‘governed; they had been exploited merely without thought of the-interest or even the ordinary hu­ man rights of their inhabitants. The Turkish empire, moreover, naa fallen apart, as the Austro-Hungarian had. It never had any real ulxltY- “ had been held together only by piti­ less, inhuman force. Its peoples cried aloud for release, for ruccor to m un­ speakable distress, for all that the new day of hope seemed at la stto bring within its dawn. Peoples hith­ e r t o in utter darkness were to be led out into the same light and grreniat last a helpful hand. Undeveloped peoples ready for recognition but not yet ready to assume the full-respon­ sibilities of statehood were to be giv- en adequate guarantees of friendly protection, guidance and assistaiwe. And out of the execution of these great enterprises of liberty sPreu* Sportunities to attempt what stotes- men had never found the to do; an opportunity to threw aare* guards about the rights of . racial, na­ tional and religious minorities by solemn international covenant; an op- opportunity to limit and regulate mili­ tary establishments where they were most likely to be mischevious; an op­ portunity to effect a complete And sys­ tematic intre'n'ationalizMion of water­ ways and railways which were neces­ sary to the free economic life of more than one nation and to clear many of the normal channels of commerce of unfair obstructions of law or of privilege; and the very welcome op­ portunity to secure for labor the con­ certed protection of definite interna-, tional pledges of principle and prac­ tice. . These'w erenot tasks.,-which the. conference looked about it to find and went out of its way to perform. They were inseparable from the set­ tlements of peace. They were thrust upon it by circumstances which could not be overlooked.' The war had cre­ ated -them. They had to be set right by applying some uniform principle of justice or enlightened. expediency And they could not be adjusted by merely prescribing in a treaty what should be done. New states were to be set up which could not hope to live through their first period of weakness without assured support by the great nations that had consented to their creation and won for them their inde­ pendence. Ill-governed colonies could not be put in the, hands of., govern­ ments which were to act as trustees for their people and not as their mas­ ters if there was to be no common authority among the nations to which they were to be responsible for the execution of their trust. Future in­ ternational conventions with regard to the control of waterways, with re­ gard to illicit traffic of many kinds, in arms or in deadly drugs, or with regard to the adjustment of many varying intemaitonal administrative arrangements could not be assured if the treaty were to provide no perma­ nent common international agency, if its execution in such matters was to be left to the slow and uncertain processes of co-operation by ordinary methods ..of negotiation. If the peace conference itself was to be the end of co-operative authority and common counsel among the governments to which the world was looking to en­ force justice and give pledges of an enduring settlement, regions like the Saar basin could not be put under a temporary administrative regime which did not involve a transfer of political sovereignty and which con­ templated a final determination of its political connections by popular vote to be taken at a distant date; no free city like. Danzig, • could. be created which was, under elaborate interna­ tional guarantees, to accept excep­ tional obligations with regard to the use of its port and exceptional rela­ tions with a state of which it was not to* form a part; properly safeguarded plebescites could not be provided for where populations were at some fu­ ture date to make choice what, sover­ eignty they would live under; no cer­ tain and’uniform method of arbitra­ tion could be secured for the settle­ ment of anticipated difficulties of final decision with regard to many matters dealt with in the treaty itself; the long continued supervision of the task of reparation which Germany was to undertake to complete within the next generation might entirely break downftp the reconsideration and revis­ ion of administrative arrangements and restrictions which the treaty pre­ scribed but which it was, recognized might not prove of lasting advantage or entirely fair if too long enforced would be impracticable. The prom­ ises governments were making to one another about the way in which labor was to be dealt with, by law not only but in fact as well, would remain a mere humane thesis if there was ^ to be no common tribunal of. opinion and judgment to which liberal states­ men could resort for the influences which alone might secure their re­ demption. A league 'of free nations had become a practical necessity. Ex­ amine the treaty of peace and you will find that everywhere throughout its manifold provisions its framers have felt obliged to turn to the league of nations as an indispensable instru­ mentality for the maintenance of the new order it has been their purpose to pet up in the world—the world of civilized men. That there should be a league of nations to “.steady the counsels ;and maintain the peaceful understandings of the world, to make, not treaties alone; but the accepted principles of international law as well, the inter­ national rule of conduct among the governments of the world, had been one of the agreements accepted from- the'first as the basis of peace with' the central powers. The statesmen of all the belligerent countries were agreed that such a "league must be created to sustain the settlements that were to be effected. But at first I rtinV there was a feeling among some of them that, while it must be at­ tempted, the formation of. such a league was perhaps a counsel of per­ fection which practical men, long ex­ perienced in the world of affairs, must agree to very cautiously and with many misgivings. It was only as the difficult work of arranging in all but ,universal' adjustment of the world’s affairs advanced from day to day from one stage 6f conference to another that it became evident to them that what they, were seeking would be little more than something written upon paper, to be interpreted and applied by such methods as the . . make avail-chances of politics might make , avail­ able if they did not provide a meam of common. couns el which all wen obliged to aqcept,.« cornmon-.nuthox- ity whose decisions Would be recog­ nized as ,decisions which all must re­ spect. And so the most practical, the most skeptical -among them turned more and more to the league as the author­ ity through which international action was to be secured, the authority with­ out which, as they had come to see it, it would be difficult to give assured effect either to-this treaty or t o . any other international understanding upon which they were to depend for the maintenance of peace. The fact that the covenant of the league was the first substantive part of the treaty to be worked out -and agreed upon, while all;else was in solution, Helped .to make the formulations of the rest easier. The conference was, after all,' not to be ephemeral. The concert of nations was to continue,'under a defi­ nite covenant which had been agreed upon and which all were convinced was workable. They could go for­ ward with confidence to make ar­ rangements intended to be permanent. The most practical of the conferees were at last the most ready to refer to the league of nations the superin- tendenct of all interests which did not admit of immediate determination, of all administrative problems which were to require a continuing over­ sight. What had seemed a counsel of perfection had come to seem a plain counsel of necessity. The league of nations was the practical states­ man’s hope of success in many of the most difficult things he was ,attempt­ ing. And it had validated itself in the thought of every member of the con­ ference as something much bigger, much greater every way, than a mere instrument for carrying out the pro­ visions of a particular treaty. It was universally recognized that all the peoples of the world demand of the conference that it should create such a continuing concert of -free nations as would make wars of .aggression and spoliation such as this that has just ended forever impossible. A cry had gone Out from every home in every stricken land from which sons and. brothers and fathers , had gone forth to -the great sacrifice that such a sacrifice should never again be ex­ acted. It -was manifest why it had been exacted. It had been exacted because one nation desired dominion and other nations had known no means of defense except armaments and alliances. War had lain at the heart of every arrangement of the conferences affecting the states of Europe—of every arrangement of the world—that preceded war. Restive peoples had been told that fleets and armies, 'which 'they toiled to sustain, meant peace; and they now know that they had been lied to; that fleets 'and armies had been maintained to promote national ambitions and they-knew that-no old policy meant anything else but force, force—always force. And they knew ■ that it was intolerable. Every true heart in the world and every enlightened judg­ ment demanded that, at whatever cost of independent action, every govern­ ment that took thought for its people or for justice or for ordered freedom should lend itself to a new purpose and utterly destroy the old order of international politics.* Statesmen might see difficulties, but the people could see none and could -brook no denial. A war in which they had been bled white to beat ibe terror that lay concealed in every balance of power must not end in a mere vic­ tory of arms and a new balance. The monster that had resorted to arms must be put in chains that could not be broken, The united power of free nations must put a stop to aggres­ sion, and the world must be given peace. If there was not the will or the intelligence to accomplish that now, there must be another and a final war and the world must be swept clean of every power that could re­ new the terror. The league of na­ tions was not merely an instrument to adjust and remedy old wrongs un­ der a new treaty of peace; it was the only hope of mankind. Again and again had the demon of: war been cast out of the house of the peoples and the house swept dean by a treaty of peace; only to prepare a time when he would enter in again with spirits worse than himself. The house must now be given a tenant who could hold it against, all such. Convenient, in­ deed indispensable, as statesmen' found ,the newly planned league of nations to be for .the execution of present plans of peace and repara­ tion, they saw in it a new aspect be­ fore their work was finished. They saw it as the. main object - of the peace, as the only thing that could complete- it or make it worth while. They saw it as the hope of the world, and-that hope they did not dare to disappoint. Shall we or any other free people hesitate to accept this great duty? Dare we reject it and break the heart of the world? . And so the result of the conference of peace, so far as Germany is con­ cerned, stands complete. The diffi­ culties encountered were very many. Sometimes they seemed insuperable. It was impossible to accommodate the, interests of so great a body of na­ tions—interests which directly or iif- directly affected almost every nation in the world—without many minor compromises. 1 The treaty, as Si result, is not' exactly what we would have written. It is probably not what any one of the national delegations would have written. But results were worked out which, on the whole, bear test. I think that it will be found that the compromises which were ac­ cepted as inevitable -nowhere cut to the heart-of any principle. The work •I Itfte conference squares, as a whole, wtih the- principles agreed upon as the basis of the peace, as well as with . the practical possibilities of the inter­ national situations which had to be faced and dealt with as facts. , I shall. presently have occasion to lay before you a special treaty with France, whose object is' the Rmpo- rary protection of France from un­ provoked aggression by the power with whom this treaty of peace has. been negotiated. Its terms Hnk it with the treaty. I take the liberty, however, of' reserving it for special explication on another occasion. The role which America was to play in the conference seemed deter­ mined, as I have said, before my col-. Iealgues and I got to Paris—deter­ mined by the universal expectations of the nations whose representatives, drawn from all quarters of the globe, we were to deal with. It was univer­ sally recognized that America had en­ tered the war .to promote no private or peculiar interest of her own but only as the champion of rights which she was glad to share with free men and lovers of justice everywhere. We had formulated the principles upon which the settlement was to be made —the principles upon which the ar­ mistice had been agreed to and the parleys of peace undertaken—and no one doubted that our desire was to see the treaty of peace formulated along the actual lines of those prin­ ciples—and desired nothing else., We were welcomed as ' disinterested friends. We were resorted to as arbi­ ters in many a difficult matter. It was recognized that our aid would be indispensable in the days to come. We were generously - accepted as the unaffected champions of what was right. It was a very responsible role to play; but I am happy to re­ port that the fine group of Ameri­ cans who helped with theiT expert advice sought in every transaction to justify the high confidence im­ posed in them. And that confidence, it seems to me, is the measure of our opportunity and of our duty in the days to come, in which the new hope of the peoples of the world is to be fulfilled or dis­ appointed. The fact that America is the friend of the nations, whether they be rivals or associates, is no new fact; it is only the discovery, of it by the rest of the world that is new. America may be said to have just reached her majority as a world pow­ er. It was almost exactly 21 years ago that the results of the war with Spain, put us unexpectedly in posses­ sion of rich- islands on the other side of the world and brought us into as­ sociation with other governments in the control of the West Indies. It^ was regarded as a sinister and omi­ nous thing by the statesmen of more than one European chancellory that we should have extended our powers beyond the confines of our continental dominions. ' They were accustomed to think’ of..... new neighbors as'a new -menace, Of rivals as watchful enemies. Thera were persons amongst us at home who looked with deep disapproval and avowed anxiety on such exten­ sions of our national authority over distant islands and over peoples whom they feared we might exploit, not serve and assist. But we - have been their friends and have sought to serve them. And our dominion has been a menace to no other nation. We . redeemed our honor to the utmost ■ in ,our dealings with Cuba. She is weak, but absolutely free; and.it is her trust in us that makes her free. Weak peoples everywhere stand ready to give us any authority among rtgm that will assure them a like friendly oversight and direction. They know that there is no ground for fear in receiving us as their mentors and-guides. Our isolation was ended 20 years ago; and now fear of us is ended also, our counsel and associa­ tion sought after and desired. There can be no question of our ceasing to be a world power. The only question is whether we can refuse the moral leadership that is offered us, whether we shall accept or reject the confi­ dence of the world. The war and the conference of peace now sitting in Paris seem to me to have answered that question. Our participation in the war estab- -. Iished our position among the na­ tions and nothing but our own mis­ taken action can alter it. It was not an. accident or a matter of sudden choice that we are no longer isolated and devoted to a policy which has only pur own interest and advantage, for its object. It was our duty to go in, if we were indeed the champions - of liberty and of right. We answered to the call of duty in a way so spirited, so utterly without thought of what we spent of blood-or treas­ ure, so effective, .so worthy of the admiration of true men everywhere, so wrought out of the stuff of all , that was heroic, that the whole world saw at last, in the flesh, in noble .action, a great ideal asserted and vindicated by a nation they had deemed material and now found to be compact'of the spiritual forces that must free men of every nation from every unworthy bondage. It is thus that a new role and a new responsi­ bility have come to this great nation that we honor and which we would all wish to lift to yet higher levels of service and achievement. The stage is set, the destiny dis­ closed. It .has come about by no plan of our conceiving, but by the i,nnH of God who led us into this war. We cannot turn back..- We can only go forward, with lifted eyes and freshened spirit, to'follow the vision. . It was of this that we dreamed at our birth. America shall in truth show the way. The light streams upon the, path ahead, and nowhere else.: .

IN MUCH GOOD IN EHRLY RISINE Observation of Happy and Bencfieent Results In This and Other Countries Impelled Use of Executive Axe. Washington.—The daylight saving law was rescued from repeal by Pres­ ident Wilson’s veto of the agricultu­ ral appropriation WlL In regard to returning the agricul­ tural bill without his signature, the president said: “I realize, of course, the grave in­ convenience which may arise from the postponement ot the legislation at this time but feel obliged to withhold any sgniature because of the clause whch provdes that ‘at and after two ' o'clock a. m., Sunday, October 26, 1919, next, the act enttled an act to save daylight and to provide same hereby is repealed.’ "I believe that the repeal of the act referred to would be of. very great inconvenience to the country and think that I am justified in say­ ing that it would constitute some­ thing more than an inconvenience. It would involve a serious economic loss. The act of March 19. 1918, to 'save daylight’ resulted not only from a careful study of industrial activities by competent men familar with the business operations of the country but also from observations of the happy and beneficial consequences o f‘S im i­ lar legislation in other countries ■where legislation of this character has been in operation.” "It moreover served the daily con­ venience of the many communities of the country i na way which gave all but universal satisfaction and the overwhelming testimony of its value •wh’ich has come to me convinces me that I should not be justified In ac­ quiescence in its repeal. ANTI-SUFRAGISTS GO AFTER WILLIAM J. BRYAN Washington.—The Ifaiiiial Associ­ ation Opposed to WoiHr- Suffrage ut­ tered a blast against North Carolina’s foremost visitor, ^Viiliam J. Bryan. The "antisuffs” took Mr. Bryan to task for saying that “the forces of evil were lined, up against the ballot for women,” They emphatically deny the charge and demand a retraction. “When you say,” the organization states, “tht the forces of evil are lined up against the ballot for wo­ men, we challenge not only the statement itself, but. your sincerity in making it. You know that some of the noblest and most respected wo­ men in America are conducting the campaign against woman suffrage. You would not dare get up. before any audi­ ence in America and declare that Mrs. Grover Cleveland Preston (vice pres­ ident of the National Association Op posed to Woman Suffrage) who, while in the white house, did more for tem­ perance in public life than any woman has done since, is associated with either liquor interests or any other evil Interests.” R-34 COMPLETS ROUND TRIP TO UNITED STATES AND BACK. Pulliam, Norfolk, Eng.—Great Brit­ ain’s mammoth trans-Atlantic air- pioneer, the dirigible R-34, arrived here at 6:66 o’clock, Greenwich mean time, completing her round trip from the British Isles to th$ United States and return. The R-34 poked her nose out of the clouds northeast of the village and. after circling the flying field three times, glided gently to the ground and ten minutes later was housed in the .dirigible shed. The voyage from Long Island was without particular inci­ dent and was completed. In approxi­ mately 75 hours. MASS MEETING PLANNED IN PROTEST OF LEAGUE. Washington.—A mass meeting in protest against the league of nations has been arranged “in nearly every farge city” said an announcement by the league for the preservation of American independence.

MAJOR GEERAL LEWIS IN COMMAND AT CAMP GORDON. Atlanta. — Major General Edward Mann Lewis, who commanded the “Old History” division, comprizing the , Hindepburg line breaking units, has been placed, in command of Camp Gordon. General Lewis commanded the SOth Division from July, 1918. un- ti llast March, .when the . division returned to the states. -General Lewis then was- called, to duty at- American general headquarters where he re- , tnained untl^ returning to the States FIGHIIO BEGIN PRESIDENT HAS TEMPORARILY PUT MATTER OF TREATY QUITE OUT OF MIND. COMMITTEE IO MEET OPENLY Japan Will Derive Nd Permanent Ben­ efits from the Shantung Matter During Reconstruction Period. Washington.—Senate leaders in the league of • nations controversy con­ tinued their conferences in prepara­ tion for the ratification fight which will begin when the senate reconvenes. While it was said the exact lines of division might not be drawn for some days, further progress in solidifying their forces was claimed by both sides. President Wilson, having delivered the treaty to the senate and ottered to supplement it with all the informa­ tion in his possession, apparently put the matter temporarily out of his mind. He saw none of the senators who have been active in the fight and, while he conferred with Acting Sec­ retary PoIk at the state department, it was understood other subjects furn­ ished the basis of their discussion. Whether the President’s offer is to be accepted by the foreign relations committee remained an open ques­ tion. Some of the opposition leaders are known to oppose intiting him be­ fore the committee, but his support­ ers believe they can secure his ap­ pearance should he request that they do so. There were increasing indica­ tions that the Sessions will be open to the public. It developed that in his conversa­ tions with senators at the capitol, Mr. Wilson went into great detail regard­ ing the Shantung agreement. He was quoted as saying that the under­ standing that Shantung would be re­ turned to China after a reconstruc­ tion period was of a very definite na­ ture, and that the only gain to Japan would 'be such benefit as she might derive from tempoarry use of the Ger­ man railroads and other German property in the territory. TO ACT JOINTLY FOR BETTER MAIL SERVICE Washington.—Joint action by tho postoftice department and the cham­ ber of commerce of the United States to extend and improve mail facilities and eliminate delays ws announced. Following a conference at the de­ partment here of postmasters of the 50 largest mail centers, handling ap­ proximately half of the mail business of the country, it was agreed that the national chamber would undertake to have each chamber in those centers organize a committee on postal facil­ ities to study existing conditions and then oonfer with the local postmaster who will be instructed by the depart­ ment to co-operate to the fullest ex­ tent. These committees in most cses already have been framed. CHARGES ARE FALSE SAYS JOHN SKELTON WILLIAMS Washington.—In a statement John Skelton Williams said he would make no specific reply to the "charges and Insinuations” made against his admin- istraton of the office of comptroller until allowed to testify before the sen­ ate in his own behalf. “When that opportunity comes,” Mr1 Williams said, "I shall rely on written evidence and official court records to prove directly and square­ ly that the allegatons of unjust dis­ crimination, of use of my position ar comptroller to reward friends or pun­ ish enemies, political or personal, or of undue harshness in erquirements from banks are false --and unequivo­ cally false." BELA KUN MOVEMENT IS DISCUSSED BY COUNCIL Paris.—Marshall Poch and repre­ sentatives of Czecho-Slovaks and Jugo­ slavia were before the supreme coun­ cil of the peace conference for a dis­ cussion of the movement of the par­ tisans of Belal Kun, Hungarian com­ munist foreign minister. The different representatives were* asked to confer wit htheir govern­ ments to find out to what extent they are ready to participate In military operations against Bela Kun’s forces BAKER QUESTIONED ON CAMPS BY COMMITTEE Washington—Questioned by a house war investigating ‘sub-committee about the location of most of the army train­ ing. camps In the Sonith,' Secretary Baiker declared that , the camps' were placed In the South rather than it the: North solely because better weath «r conditions obtained there and h( added! that np Influence tija tv h e knew of was .exerted to'send the nien to'the South. r < T OPPOSITION NATURALLY FIND CAUSE FOR CRITICISM OF 8EVERAL POINTS MADE. JUtSWERS HIS OWN ARGUMENT According to Borah, the President’s Argument for a League of Nations is One foffi Alliance of War. Washington. — President Wilson's address to the senate transmitting the peace treaty was praised by dem­ ocratic leaders as one of his best state papers, but republican senators gen­ erally were inclined to criticise it. Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts, and Senator Knox, of Pennsylvania, de­ clined to comment. Senator Borah, Idaho, one of-the leading opponents in the senate of the league of nations, also declined to comment except to. say that Presi­ dent Wilson “completely answered” his own argument that the league of nations is a league for peace by his statement that it is “formed as an al­ liance of war.” Senator Smoot, Utah, characterized the address as, “another Wilsonian essay, but not quite up to the stand­ ard. “It was a fins comprehnsive pres­ entation of the case,” said Senator Hitchcock, Nebraska. “It was * dis­ passionate and convincing sta'-ement of the reasons that led the represen­ tations of 1,000,000,000 people to agree on its re-organization of the world.” Senator McCumber, North Dakota, a supporter of the league of nations, said the address was “very impres­ sive.” “The address,” said Senator Swan­ son, Virginia, is “magnificent, able, eloquent, and inspiring. The reasons j presented for the ratification of the treaty, including the league of na­ tions, were strong, cogent and unan­ swerable." “I think,” said Senator Williams, Mississippi, “that in breadth of vision, in height of humanitarianism, in fun­ damental word, statesmanship, and in delicacy of dovetailed English, it is the greatest thing he has ever sug­ gested. His words are a fitting close to his magnificent and unselfish and upon the whole effective work at Paris.” W S COST TO US IS SECRETARY GLASS MADE THIS ESTIMATE BY AN ORIGINAL SYSTEM OF COMPUTATION. TiXES TM CARE OF MUCH Further Issues of Bonds Wili Not Be Necessary Before Maturity Or Re­ demption of Victory Notes. Washington.—The war cost the United States $30,177,000,000 up to June 30, 1919. Secretary Glass made this estimate In submitting to the congressional appropriations committee the prelim­ inary statements of the treasury on the condition of the nation’s finances. He arrived at the estimate by sub­ tracting the average peace-time ex­ penses for the same length of time, at the rate of $1,000,000,000 annually, from the total expenditures, $32,427,- 000,000, during the war. Taxes and other revenues than bor­ rowed money cook care of $9,384,000,- 000, or about 29 per cent of the war cost. The remainder came from Lib­ erty and Victory note issues and sav- ?ngs stamps. Further issues of bonds, Mr. Glass said, will not be necessary. “before the maturity or redemption of the Victory notes,” which have four years to run. BLOCKADE QUESTION UP . TO ATTORNEY GENERAL. AMERICAN PROHIBITION WORKERS ARE IN LONDON. London. — American prohibition workers have arrived in London. The vanguard is led by William E. John­ son, who says he first made Okla­ homa dry, then Kansas and after­ wards largely the United States. Johnson is established in'a fine office on Fleet street. He said to a reporter for The Daily Mail: "Your British organizations 'have been at us for ,over a year to come over here. The whole thing has been in response to their asking. .We are going to teach them how to get this country dry. I have reported to my headquarters that the position, here is entirely different to that way back home, but it is far from being as hopelss as appears vn the surface.” MUST HAVE WILL AND POWER TO FULFILL OBLIGATIONS. Paris.—Austria will lie admitted to membership in the league of nations as soon as the allied and associated powers consider that she possesses a responsible government with both the will and the power to fulfill its inter­ national obligations. The Austrian peace delegation has been so informed In a reply by the supreme council of the peace conference to an Austrian plea for immediate admission to the league. The Austrian note, embodying the plea was sent by. Dr. Karl Renner, the Austrian chancellor and head of the Austrian peace delegation, to Pre­ mier Clemenceau, as president of the peace conference,’ on June 23. CONTRACTS AWARDED FOR THE BUILDING OF BATTLESHIPS. ,Wshington.—Contract for the con­ struction of battleship No. 53 was let by the navy department to the New­ port News' Shipbuilding & Drydock Co.

The battleship probably will be named the Massachusetts or Iowa. ATTITUDE OF SIMMONS ON SITUATION IN HIS STATE.

Mn Simmons is for Cameron Morrison,: and will do his-very best .to nominate him.’ - ^ , It has been.reported here.recently' ^ a t Mr. Simmons:. and Mrl Morrison :had become estranged. WheiL this W port was brought to ..the attention 'of the senator he asserted that there waa no truth Isi i t J Washington.—While ratification of the peace treaty by the German na­ tional assembly at Weimar makes possible the raising of the blockade of Germany, it will be for Attorney General Palmer to determine to' what extent commercial relations between the United States and Germany may be resumed. Should the allied and associated powers agree to lift th6 blockade, Attorney General Palmer will have to render in some more for­ mal shape than he has already indi­ cated in informal statements an opin­ ion as to whether provisions of the trading with the enemy act can be suspended or abrogated by executive order in advance of the formal ter­ mination of the war through final ex­ change of ratification of the peace treaty. BRITISH DIRIGIBLE R-34 STARTS ON RETURN CRUISE, Mineola, N.'Y.—The British dirig­ ible R-34 left Roosevelt field shortly before midnight on her return cruise to Scotland. The great ship h^Id in leash by 1,000 American balloon men, was re­ leased at 11:55 o’clock, and floated leisurely up to a height of 200 feet with her motors silent. The motors then began to whirr and the craft, nosing upward, headed for New York. .

PRESIDENT JTEAMER GEORGE WASHINGTON ARRIVES AT ARMY PIER ON SCHEDULE TIME. 10,000 CHILDRENBREETHIM Received In New York By Committees Headed By Gov. Smith, Mayor Hy- ' Ian, and Countless Thousands. New York.—President Wilson has returned to the United States, and, In his first speech deln^red on Amer­ ican soil since the poace treaty was signed, declared that peace concluded at Parig was “a just peace .which, if it can be-preserved, will safeguard the world from unnecessary bloodshed.” The only- reference the President made to his political opponents was when in referring to the negotia­ tions at Paris, he said: “I am afraid some people, some per­ sons, do not understand that vision. They do not see it They have look­ ed too much upon the ground. They have thought too much of the interests that were near them, and they have not listened to the voices of their neighbors. I have never had a mo­ ment’s doubt as to where the heart and purpose of this people lay.” 10,000 Children Greet Him. The President arrived at the Ho­ boken army pier, formerly at the dock of the Hamburg American line, short­ ly before 3 o’clock. Tho .army trans­ port George Washington, on which he sailed from Brest, was escorted up tho bay by the battleship Pennsyl­ vania and more than a score of de­ stroyers anji smaller naval craft. Along the New Jersey shore, -the state which first honored Mr. Wilson with a political office, were massed 10,000 school children who welcomed the chief executive of the nation with the strains of the national anthem. Through the lines of the children, all dressed in white, the President passed to the ferry which caried him to the Manhattan side of the river. He arrived in New York at 4:15 p. m., where he was greeted by the official reception committee, headed by Gov­ ernor Smith and Mayor Hylan.

IfISLLIONS Suffer from Acid-Stomach MUllons of people suffer year after year from aliments affecting practically every pari of the body, never dreaming that thelt Ul health can be traced directly to acid* stomach. Here is the reason: poor digestion means poor nourishment ot the different orcar.3 and tissues of the body. The blood It impoverished—becomes weak, thin, sluggish. Aliment? of many kinds spring from such condition?. Biliousness, rheumatism, lum* bafo, sciatica, general weakness, loss o! power and energy, headache, Insomnia, nervousness, mental depression—even more ierious ailments such as catarrh and cancer of the stomach. Intestinal ulcers, cirrhosis of the liver, heart troubl+—all of these can often be tmced directly to add-stomach.

My elbow grated against the tunnel wall. I stepped sidewise toward the center and ran against the wall oppo­ site. The light of the stars was clear in front of me and the cold wind blew upon my face, and I squeezed through into the same scooped-out hollow which I ha.d entered on the same after­ noon during the course of my journey toward the chateau. The little river gurgled at my feet, and In front of me I saw a candle flickering In the recesses of a cave, so elfinlike, that I could distinguish it only by shielding my eyes against the moon and stars. I grasped my pistol tightly and crept noiselessly forward. If this should be Leronx1 as I was convinced it was, t would not parley with him. I would shoot him down in his tracks. As I stepped nearer him my feet dis­ lodged a pebble, which roiled with a splash into the bed of the stream. The man started iad spun around, and I saw before me the pale, .melan? choly features of Philippe Lacroix. CHAPTER XVI. . — 'k ■Louis d'Epernay. He uttered an oath and took two steps backward, but I saw that he was unarmed and that he realized his help­ lessness. He flung his hands above his head and stood facing me, surprise and terror twistlng'his features into a-grimacing grin. “I have something of importance to say to you, monsieur,” he began. “I can believe that,” I answered. T t is about Ie VieiI Ange1 is it not?” “By God, I did not mean—I swear to you, monsieur—listen, monsieur, one moment only,” he stammered. “Lower your pistol. You see that I am unarmed!” I lowered St. yWell, say what you have to say,” I said to him. “Leroux is a devil!” he burst out, with no pretended passion. “I want you to help me, M. Hewlett, and I can help you In a way you do not dream of. M. Hewlett, how much do you think this seigniory is worth?” “Some half a million dollars, per­ haps.” He came close to me and hissed into my ear: “Monsieur, there is more gold in these rocks lhan anywhere In the world! Look here! Here!” He stooped down and began tossing pebbles at my feet. But they were pebbles of pure gold and each one §f them was as large as the first joint of my thumb. And I had misjudged his courage, I think, for it was avarice and not fear that made him tremble. “It is everywhere, monsieur!” cried Lacroix. “In this stream, in these hills, too. You can gather a mortar­ ful of earth anywhere and it will show color when it is washed. We found this place together—” “You and Leroux?” . I “No! I and—” He broke off suddenly and eyed me with furtive cunning. “Yes, yes, monsieur, Leroux and L And we two worked here together, with nothing more than picks and Ohovels and mortars and pestles, Le­ roux and L There was nobody else. It Is the richest gold deposit in the world, M- Hewlett, and neither Baoul nor Jean PetitJean knows the secret— only Leroux and I. One cannot light upon this place save by a miracle of chance, such as brought you here. God put this treasure In these hills, and he did not mean it to be found.” I grasped him by the shoulder. “Do you see what ,this means?”' I shouted. “It means a glorious life!” he cried. “All the wealth In the. world—” “No, it means death!” I answered. T t means that if Leroux succeeds in killing me he will kill you too! Do you suppose that he will share his hoard with you?” ' “No, M, Hewlett,” answered Lacroix quietly. “And that is precisely what I wanted to say to you. You are not a hog like Leroux; I can trust you. Come with me, monsieur. I don’t know how you got into the wrong passage,# but it is simple—straight ahead. Come with me! I will precede yon.” I followed him into the darkness, and very soon heard the sound of the cataract’again. And then once more I was standing at the tunnel entrance, under a brilliant moon and the Chateau was before me. I strode steadily across the snow and. opened Ihe door in the dark wing, entered the hall and ascended the stairway, took the turn to the right and passed through the little hall. I heard Leroux’s harsh voice within, and if I ’ stopped, outside it was not in indecision but because I meant to make sure of my man this.'tmie. “I want you, Jacqueline,” I heard him say. in a voice which betrayed no throb of passion. “And I am going to have you. I always have my W . I am not like that weak. fool Hewlett^ “It was I sent him away, not. you, she cried. “ Do you think he was if raid of you?”' a , .. „ L eroux looked at her In admiration. OooYrLshtft W. GK Ohapman “You are a splendid woman, Jacque­ line,” he said. “I like the way you defy me—by heaven, I do! But you are quite at my mercy. And you are going to yield! You will yield your will to mine—” .. “Never!” she cried. ‘T will fling myself into the lake before that shall happen. Ah, monsieur”—her voice took on a pleading tone—“why will you not take all we have and let us go? We are two helpless people; we shall never betray your secrets. Why must you have me too?” “Because I love you, Jacqueline,” he cried,' and now I heard an under­ tone of passion which I had not sus­ pected In the man. He caught her in his arms. She ut­ tered a little gasping cry and struggled wildly and ineffectually in his grasp. . I was quite cold, for I knew that was to be the last of his villainies. I entered the room , and walked up to the table, my pistol rinsed, aiming at his heart, and I felt my own- heart beat steadily and the will to kill rise domi­ nant above every hesitation. Leroux spun round. He saw me, and he smiled his sour smile. He did not flinch, although he must have seen that my hand was as steady as a rock. “What, you again, monsieur?” he asked mockingly. “You have come back? You are always coming back, aren’t you?” “I have come back to kill you, Le­ roux,” I answered, and pulled the trig­ ger eix times. And each time I heard nothing but the click of the hammer. 1 Then, with his bull’s bellow, Simon was upon me, dashing his'fists into my face and bearing me down. My puny struggles were as ineffective as though I had been fighting ten men. He bad me on the floor and was kneeling on my chest, and In a trice the other ruf­ fians had come dashing along the hall. Jacqueline was beating with her little fists upon Leroux’s broad back, but he did not even feel the blows. I heard old Charles Duchalne’s piping cries of fear, and then somebody held me by the throat and I was swimming In black water. “Bring a rope, Baoul I”, I heard Si­ mon call. Half conscious, I knew that I was being tied. I felt the rope tighten upon my wrists and limbs; presently I Saw Before Me the Features of Phil- ' ippe Lacroix. I opened my aching eyes to find my­ self trussed like a chicken to two legs of the table and Leroux was standing over me, perfectly calm. ' “Ah, Paul Hewlett, you are a very poor conspirator indeed,” he said, “to try to shoot a man' without anything in your pistol. Do you remember how affectionately I put my arm round .you when; you were sitting in that chair writing your ridiculous check? It was then that I took the liberty of extract­ ing fiiie two cartridges. But I did think you would have sense enough to examine your pistol and reload before you returned.” He picked up a scrap of newspaper from the table and held it before my eyes, deliberately turning up the oil- IampwiCk thatImightreadit I rec­ ognized it at once. Tt was the dipping from the newspaper, descriptive of the murdered man,-.whli* I-had cut.out in the train and placed In my pocketbook. “You dropped this, my friend, when you-pulled* out your pocketbook,” said Simon. “You are a very poor con­ spirator, Paul Hewlett. Well?” “Well?” I 'repeated- mechanically. “Who killed him?!! he shouted. • He shook ’the- paper before my eyes and then he striick me across the face w lth.it ,.. - ■“Who killed Louis 'd ’Epernay ?!' he yelled, and Jacqueline screamed in fear.T did,” I answered-after, a moment. CHAPTER XVII. TheLittIeDagger. Leroux staggered back against the wall" and sftod there, scowling like a devil. It was evident that my answer had been totally unexpected. “Did you know this, madame?” cried Leroux fiercely to Jacqueline. “Yes,” she replied. “You lied to shield yourself?” “No, to shield him,” she cried. “Be­ cause he was.my only friend when I was helpless in a strange city. You did not steal my money, did you, Paul?” she added, turning swiftly upon me. “No, you have , paid me. You were keeping it for me.” “You lie, d-— n you!” yelled L> roux, and he struck -her across tl e mouth as he ha# struck ine. I writhed in my bonds. Ipulled tlie heavy table after me as I tried Impo- tently to crawl toward him, sending the wheel flying and all. the papers whirling through the air. I cursed Le­ roux as blasphemously as he was curs­ ing Jacqueline. And at the door was the pale fade of Philippe Lacroix. Leroux turned on me and kicked me savagely and dragged the table to the far end of the room and struck' me re­ peatedly, while I struggled like a mad­ man. The oaths and execrations that streamed from my lips seemed to be uttered by another man, for I heard them indifferently, or rather some­ thing that was I, deep in the maze of my personality, heard them—not that pitiful, puny, goaded thing that fought in its bonds until.it ceased, panting and exhausted. There followed a long silence, while Leroux strode furiously about the room. At last he stopped ; he seemed to have made up his mind. I saw Jacqueline looking at me, I would not meet her gaze, but at last her persistence compelled me. Then I saw her glance toward the wall. The two broadswords hung there within arm’s reach, above the broken mirror. My heart leaped up at tho thought of her valor. She had no mind to yield. But I shook my head imperceptibly in answer and looked down at my bonds. I had been trying hard to devise some method of freeing myself. My struggles had relaxed the ropes around my wrists sufficiently to allow my hands two or three inches of move­ ment, and I hoped, by hard work, to loosen them sufficiently to enable mo to get at least one hand free. Then I felt that something hard was pressing into my back, just withib reach of my right thumb and fore­ finger. I let my thumb and finger travel. up and down it It had the form of a tiny knife with a heavy, rounded handle. And suddenly I knew what it was It was the knife with which Louis d’Epernay bad been killed! I could just get my finger and thumb round the point of the blade The ropes scored deeply into my wrists as I worked at it, but I felt the lining give, and presently I had worked the blade through and had the knife out by the handle. But it was made for thrusting more than cutting, and I had to pick the ropes to pieces strand by strand. Jacqueline- had been imperceptibly edging away from, her father and Le­ roux; she was now standing immedi­ ately beneath the rusty .swords. And outside the door I still perceived La­ croix, motionless. It flashed across my mind that -he understood the girl’s desperate ruse, and that he was waiting for the issue. I picked furiously at the ropes which bound my hands, and a long strand un­ coiled and whipped back on my wrist Leroux seized Jacqueline by the wrists and dragged her across the floor to me. “Look at him!” he yelled! “Look into his face. Will you marry me U I let him go free?” “No!” answered Jacqueline. “I swear to you that he shall be thrown from the top of the cataract unless you give your consent within 'five minutes.” “Never!” she answered firmly. -T will denounce your father!” . “You can’t frighten ’ me with such stuff, I am not a weak old man!” ' “You will think differently after Charles Duchaine has been hanged In Quebec jail,” he sneered. Hls words received a wholly unex­ pected answer.. The dotard leaped forward,, stooped down, and picked up the heavy roulette, wheel. - He raised it aloft. and- staggered wildly toward Leroux, (TO BE CONTINUED.) .

Like Plain Bitro-Phosphate to Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and to Increase Strength, Vigor and-Nerve Force. Judging from the countless preparations and treatments which are continually be­ing advertised for the purpose of making thin people fleshy, developing arms, neck and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and angles by the s o ft curved IIneB of health a n d . beauty, there .are evi­ dently -t h o u- sands of men and w om en who k e e n ly feel their ex­ cessive thin­ness.Thinness and weakness are often due to starved nerves.

GEORGIA HAMILTON. * * * nothing that will supply this deficiency so well as the organic phosphate known among druggists as bltro-phosphate. which is inexpensive and is sold by most all druggists under a guarantee of satis­ faction or money back. B y feeding the nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phosphoric food elements, bltro-phosphate should produce a welcome transformation in the appear­ance; the increase In w eight frequently being astonishing. Increase in weight also carries with it a general improvement in the health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of energy, which nearly always accompany excessive thinness, should soon disappear, dull eyes ought to brighten, and pale cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect health. Miss Georgia Hamilton, who.was once thin and frail, reporting her own' experience, writes: “Bltro-Phosphate bus brought about a magic transformation with me. I gained Io pounds and never before felt so well.” / CAUTION !—Although bitro-phosphate is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness; sleeplessness and general weakness, it should not. owing to its tendency to in­crease weight, be used by anyone Whe does pot desire to put on flesh.'

NO GREAT RiCHES, BUT FOOD IN PLENTY FROM GOOD BACK-YARD FLOCK OF POULTRY How Poultry Comfort Was Combined With Back-Yard Beauty. (prepared by the United States Depart­ m ent of Agriculture.) Too many poultry stories read lllce fairy tales in which Aladdin is often represented as rubbing his magical lamp and converting poultry poverty into flock prosperity. Unlike such warping of the truth, this is the story of an actual experience of a back-yard poultryman who was not able to buy an automobile from his flock profits, but who did furnish fresh, nutritious food and an abundance of It for his family table, in addition to enjoying his work. The attractive and serviceable poul­ try house designed and constructed by this suburbanite cost less than $100 when It was completed In 1914. It has a concrete! floor, roosts, trap nests, a water system, and other hen house accessories. It is a pleasure to look at this hen house, which wouM be really ornamental to the back yard of any thrifty American. The building is 12 by 18 feet, and is divided Into three pens with an aisle at one end. The house is 7% feet high from the floor to the front eaves and 6 feet at the back. Yel­ low pine drop siding of medium qual­ ity was used for sheathing and roof­ ing purposes, the latter being over­ laid with prepared, stone-surface, as­ phalt roofing. Adjoining the house, with direct access to It, are four pens, one of which is used for small chick­ ens, being inclosed with'one-inch mesh chicken wire. Plenty of Light From Windows. The windows are an attractive fea­ ture of this house. They cost com­ plete -.$1:501 apltece, those at • the side-: being bungalow windows of large and odd size which the dealer was glad to get rid of. The front windows can be opened both at the top and bottom for ventilation. The side windows, which help to provide free circulation of air, are practically water-proof, as they are hinged at the bottom and swing Inward. The material for the floor of this house cost $15, the owner laying the concrete floor during the evenings by aid of an oil'lantern: •To begin with, this poultryman had only 15 hens, while his capacity rec­ ord has been 60 mature hens and pul­ lets. A novel feature of his poultry operations was the maintenance of a number of Belgian hares which he raised for .meat. One pen In the chicken house was equipped with four, rabbit hutches designed, according to the directions of the United States de­ partment of agriculture. In the main he raised Belgian hares only during the fall, winter and early spring up to the time of the setting season, when the space occupied by the rabbits was needed by the hens. Then he would reduce his rabbltry to the minimum point In this way the rabbit quar­ ters provided plenty of space, by the use of partitions, for six or more set­ ting hens at a time. After the hatch­ ing season the owner would place the broody hens in the same pen with sev­ eral rabbits, as the presence and hop­ ping about of the rabbits would ulti­ mately break the hens of their broodl- ness. Rabbits Cost Little to Keep. The remarkable thing about these rabbit-raising operations was that valuable food was produced from weeds and waste, as practically the only feed for the rabbits was grass clippings, wild hay and weeds. Dur­ ing the young bearing season he would feed the does a little skim milk and a small amount of oats, but never more than one quart of oats a week. In the course of two years he raised and ate about 75 rabbits, weighing an average of two pounds apiece. All this meat was produced as a by-product of his poultry opera­ tions with small expense or trouble. Another desirable point about the rabbits was that they required little care as compared with poultry. The rabbits were fed at any time of the day or night with satisfactory re­ sults.- I “It is a comparatively simple mat­ ter to kill and dress two rabbits In ten minutes,” remarked the suburban­ ite, “but I never was able to pick and dress a single chicken in less than double that period. My family did not tire of the rabbits, because as a rule, we alternated the rabbit flesh with chicken and other fresh meats. The profits which I realized from my poultry and rabbit operations came entirely from the Belgian hares, as my White Plymouth Rocks only about paid expenses, since I had to purchase practically all my feed for them. How­ ever, It Is a great convenience for a suburbanite to have on hand two sources of fresh meat In addition to a plentiful supply of fresh eggs.” CHIG6ERS HARMFUL TO CHICKEN FLOCK Young Fowls Are Most Liable to Suffer From Parasites.

Mites Penetrate Skin, Causing Intense itching and Abscesses Are Formed •-Birds Become Droopy and Refuse to Eat. .Prepared by the United States Depart­ m ent of Agriculture.) •Chlggers, .harvest mites, or “red bugs,” which so frequently annoy campers by the intense itching they produce, may also attack fowls. Young chickens having a free range, especial­ ly if it includes low-lying land, are' the most liable to suffer from these para­ sites. The mites penetrate the skin, causing an intense itching, and abcess- es may be found where clusters of mites are feeding. These accesses are sometimes a third of an inch in diame­ ter, surrounded by an area of Inflam­ mation. The birds become droopy, re­ fuse to eat, and may die from hun­ ger and exhaustion. If an abscess has not yet formed the inflamed area may be treated with sul­ phur ointment or a mixture of I part of kerosene oil with 3 parts of lard. If suppuration has occurred the scab should be removed and the area wash­ ed with 4 per cent carbolic-acid solu­ tion. Frequent light dusting with flowers of sulphur will keep the chick­ ens from becoming infested. In. the southern and central states,. where harvest mites are most numerous, it Is often necessary to keep young chick­ ens off the range In summer. In these 3 ections it is a good plan to hatch the chickens early In the spring, so that RrIien the warm weather comes In -which the mites are most abundant, the birds will be old enough to resist their at­ tacks. ‘ ' " H.

Why suffer from a bad back, from sharp, shooting twinges, headaches, dizziness and distressing urinary ills? People around here recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills. Could you ask for stronger proof of merit? F. H. Wollschlager, 600 Highland Ave., Winston Salem, N. C., says: “I was in a: bad way with my kidneys. Most of my trouble was lumbago and without the least warning, I would get an awful pain in my kidneys. I would fall flat on the floor, and would be in a ' semi-conscious state. I had to be given a dose of mor­ phine to relieve.the pains. My back ach ed like a tooth-ache night and day. I was laid up in bed for weeks, at a time, unable to take a full breath without get­ ting a stitch in my back that, felt like a knife-thrust. Doan’s Kidney Pills were Fecommendedito me. so I got a box and after taking it, I was wonderfully relieved. I haven’t had any UotUble with my back or kidneys since. ’’ 60c at all dealers.

In hls character the county board of education may or­ der aid to the family from .the in­ cidental fund. “ 10 The completion ,of the course of study in the district shall be an excuse. “ More difficult to. regulate is the section of the compalsory act which provides that ‘the immediate de mands of the farm or home’ in sev­ eral sections of the State shall iu certain seasons of the year be s cause for non.attendance. - “ The State board of education, realizing the difficulty of adminis­ tering this feature from Ealeigh, leav.es it to the county boards un­ til further notice. It recommends that where the. demands ot the farm are serious-enough to require tbe immediate services of the child and sfich assistance cannot be ob tiined elsewhere, and where sick­ ness in the home or other cause, calls for the child because assis­ tance c-annot be gained otherwise, the county boards may excuse. Very broad* powers are conferred on them. A fu ll report on each and every case arising under this section must be made to the State superintendent in order that the State board of edneation may de­ termine to what extent this section of the law is appealed to. “ The commission suggests iuncer­ tain places in which farming con-' ditions demand the work of chil­ dren at the regular- school hours, schools m ight open an hour ear­ lier and close about noon or one o’clock. “ Defining truancy is likew ise. a hard job fer the commission, bul it makes it as easy for the layman as possible by holdiug that absence from school one day is. truancy. The parents will be first apprised of this conduct, and if that fails to* It bring results, reports will be made to the attendance officer. The cauBe will be investigated and .if this wilful truancy continues tbe child will be carried before the juvenile courts, which have juris­ diction in such cases. “ There are other causes which may take the offending child be­ fore the juvenile courts. W hen the conduct of the pupil is such as to menace the welfare of other ehil- 'dren at school, the offender be comes a case for the courts. “ The county superintendent of public welfare is the chief Htten dance officer and enforcement of the law is in his hands.” To Cure a Cold in One Day.

Is a Sugar Farmine Coming? The price of sugar is climbing upward and the supply seems to be limited, as it is usually at fruit time. The foiling special was Eent from A tlanta a few days ago and indicated a serious state of affairs at a critical time: No more sugar is in sight, accord ing to the dealers, who said gov­ ernment demands on the refiners prevented the private demand be­ ing filled. Prices of retail sugar have been riBing steadily and re­ tailers were reported asking as high as 20 cents a pound. Qover- n nent restrictions prevent refiners from getting more than nine cents a pound f. 0. b. their plants but there are no longer any war-time regulations to goven the retailer or to .curtail domestic consumpton, whiclv has been greatly increased by th”e canning season. Large stores of sugar are said to be stored here in government .wai’houses but dealers said they did not expect it would be available fo.r the public. * "Summer Complaint Quickly Re­ lieved.

Guarded night and day, and-far out of human reach ou a pedestal at the interior departm ent exposi­ tion at Washington, D 1-' C., is a tiny vial. It contains a specimen of the deadliest poison ever known. It is “ Lewisite” product of an American scientist.. It iB what Germany escaped by signing the armistice. .. ■ > Tenairplanes carrying <:Lewi site” would have wiped ont every vestige of life—human, animal and vegetable—in Berlin. A single day’s output would snuff out the 4,000,000 lives on M anhattan island, A single drop poured' in tire palm of the hand would pene trate to the blood, reach the heart and kill the victim in great agony. W heu the armistice was signed, it was being manufactured at the rate of ten tons a day and 3,000 tons would have • been ready for business on the American front in France on March X. “ Lewisite” is another of th e big secrets of the war ju st leaking out. It was developed in the bureau of mines by Prof. W . Lee Lewis, of Northwestern university Svanston, 111. It was manufactnred in a specially built plant nearv Cleve land,- called the “ mouse trap,” because to protect the secret every workman who Entered the stock­ ade went under an agreement net to leave the 11 acre space until the war was won-. Loss of Appetite. As a general rule there is nothing se­ rious about a loss of appetite, and if you skip a meal or only eat two meals a day for a few days you will soon have a relish for your meals when meal time conies. Bear in mind that at least five hours should always elapse between meals so as to give the food ample time to digest and the stomach a period of rest before a second meal is taken. Then ir you eat no more than you crave and take a1 reas­ onable amount of outdoor exercise' every day you-will not need to worry abeut your appetite. When the loss of anpetite is caused by constipation as is often tbe case, that should be corrected at once. A dose of Chamberlain's Tablets will do it. Non-Church-Going New England. Some one has found that 129 men in a typical New England vil­ lage, only seventeen go to churcb regularly, thirteen'go occasionally, and over ninty never go at all. A generation 01*so ago no New Eng­ land gentleman would think oi stayingaw ay from church. This change has been accounted for by the lack of parental authority re­ quiring church “attendance when the30 meu were young; by the Sun day newspapers which have been called the “ non church.goers| gos pel” ; by th°. automobile rage which on the day ot rest sends thousands whizzing to the country; and by hosts away from the sanctuary.— K ind Words. fhs Qainlna That Does Not Affect the Head Because of its tonic and laxative effect, I1AXA- TIVE BROMO QUININE is better than ordinary Quinine and does not cause nervousness nor tingine in head.

Not only are the wheat growers of.the country well fixed, so as guaranteed prices go, but the coun­ try itself is pretty well provided for in the way of .wheat. The current report of the Food Admin iatration Grain Corporation shows tbat in the elevators of the coun­ try there are now stored over 74,000,OpO’.b.ushels of wheat; or. about 45,000,000 bushels in excess of the Btorage at the same time- last year. The flour mills are cor­ respondingly active, also, there having been produced during the single week, ending May 23. 2,378,000 barrels, against 1,663,000 barrels in the same week last year. Two facts are evident: Somebody is making money on wheat, and ol her somebodies, which means the consumers, are paying more than they ought to be paying for flour, —Charlotte Observer.

Charged with prostitution she had entered a plea of guilty, and the argument as to her dispo­ sition was on. The girl had been petted, pam pered,' spoiled. At her home in Nashville. N. C , she had never been called upon to do any woik, even so much as wash­ ing dishes or making beds. The eldest of eight children, her father feared the consequences of the rest of the family, including her moth­ er when they heard of his daugh­ ter’s shame.” Commenting on the foregoing news item the Lnmbertou Bobeson ian eajs: “ A nd-the story from the Haleigh - News and Observer went on to tell how the .-girl had visited towns all over the Caroli nas. She had been deserted by her actor hrjsband and, thrown up­ on her resources and never having bsen taught Io work, took the wrong path. It is the. pampered one who is to be pitied, even if she never tilts her head and 1 strolls hellward, which she is more than apt to do.'

Simon turned just in time. The wheel went crashing to the floor and bounded and rebounded out of the room and along the littie hall.. PhIl- Ippe jumped In terror from the place where he crouched— And then the last strand broke and I was free to slip the cords from my limbs. > - “You old fool!” screamed Leroux, catching Duchaine by the wrists. But Charles Duchaine possessed the strength of a madman. He grasped Leroux round the waist and dung, to him and would not be shaken off. “Kill him!’’ he screamed. "He is a spy I He has come to betray, me to the government!” What followed was the work of a moment. I saw Jacqueline pull down both broadswords from the wall. She flung one down beside me just as I was staggering to my feet r Leroux shook off the old man at last. He turned on me. I swung the sword aloft and brought it down upon his skull. Heaven knows I struck to kill; but my wrist was feeble from the ropes, and the blade fell flat. It drew no blood,' but Leroux dropped like a stricken ox upon the floor. “This way!” gasped the old man. He pulled at Jacqueline’s arm, and half led and half dragged her through the open door behind his chair, I fol­ lowing. Lacroix sprang into the room, calling, but whether to us or to the other ruffians I did not know. Lerqux sat up and looked about him, dazed and bewildered. Then I was In the' little room with Jacqueline and Duchalne, and he turned and bolted the door behind u's. He seemed possessed of all the strength and decision of youth again. When I stood there before the room had been as dark as pitch, but now a flicker of light was at the far end. A voice cried: "M’sieur! M’sieur I I have not for­ gotten thee I” It was Pierre Caribou. I saw his figure silhouetted against the light of the flaring' candle wlilch he held In his hand. Duchaine had placed one arm about his daughter’s waist and was urging her along. But she stopped and looked back to me. I saw she held one broadsword In her hand, as I held the other. “Come, monsieur!” she gasped. “I am going back,” I answered, fumbling for the bolt Duchalne had drawn. ' “No I We are safe Inside. It Is a secret room. My father made It In the first days of his sojourn here In % I Struck to Kill. case he were pursued, and none but Plerre and he knew tie secret. Ah, come, monsieur—come I” But I meant to kill Leroux and still felt for the bolt As I fumbled there the door splin­ tered suddenly and Jacqueline cried out. Then I yielded reluctantly to Jacque­ line’s soft violence. I followed her through the dark chamber, under an archway of stone, and through a wind­ ing passage in the rock. Pierre’s candle flickered before us, and In an­ other moment we had . -. squeezed lhrougli a ,narrow opening into a cham­ ber In the cliff. On the ground were five or six large stones and Pierre, began to fit them Into the aperture through which we had passed. In a mint te the place was completely sealed, and we. four stood and looked breathlessly at one another within what might have been a cenotaph. The chamber seemed at one time to have been prepared, for such a con­ tingency as had occurred, for there were wool rugs on the stone floor, though they had rotted-and partly dis­ integrated from the dampness. “M. Duchalne, he make this place In case gov’ment come take him,” ex­ plained Pierre as he placed the rugs. “No can find, no can break down stone door. Other way Simon not know—only m’sieur and me. Old Cari­ bou he come that way; he see you tied and know it time to come here. Soon time to kill Simon come as well.” “When, in heaven’s name, will it come?” I cried. ' “Come soon. His dlable tell me,” answered Pierre Caribou. “I go now,” he announced. “To­ morrow I come for you, take all through tunnel. You stay here till I come; all sleep till morning.” “I will go with you, Pierre,” I said, still under my obsession. But he laid his heaw . hand upon my arm and pushed me away. “You no kill Simon,” he answered. “Why you no kill him again when you have sword? Only diable can kill him. When time come diable tell old Cari­ bou. You sleep now. I go for take my woman and gal safe through tun­ nel to place I know, When my woman and gal .safe Ji come back to m’sieur and ma’m’seile.” ■ I lay down. The silence was loneli­ ness itself, and not rendered less lonely by the occasional cries of the old roan and the drip, drip of water. I could not see anything, and Jacque­ line might have been a woman of stone, for she made not the least move­ ment. At last I spoke to her. “Jacqueline!” I heard her start, and knew that she had raised her head and was looking after me. I crawled toward her, drag­ ging my blanket after me. I felt In the darkness for the place where I knew her hand must be and took it in mine. “Jacqueline I” I said again. . “Ah, M. Hewlett”—the weariness In her-voice went to my heart—“it might have been so different—if—” “If what, Jacqueline?” “If there had not been the blood of a dead man between us,” she moaned. “If—you—had not—killed him!” Her words were a revelation to me, for I learned that she had mercifully been spared the full remembrance of what had happened in the Tenth street apartment. She thought that it was I who had killed Louis d’Epernay. And how could I deny this, when to so would be to'bring to her mind the knowledge of her own dreadful,guilt? The hours wore away, and we three lay there, two waiting and one dream­ ing of the old days of youth, no doubt. I tried to light the candle to see the time, but my shaking hand sent it fly­ ing across the cave, and when I searched for mg matches I found that tb'e box was empty. It seemed an eternity qlnce we had come there. It is one thing to wait for dawn; and; quite another thing to wait where dawn will never come. I resolved to follow the exit for a little distance to see whither It led, and if I could discover the light of day. So I took my sword and sallied out through the passage In the cliff. I had only proceeded a few steps when the air grew cold and sweet. And before I had traversed two hun­ dred yards I saw a dim light in the distance. This was no candle light but that of day. So I had endured all those agonies of mind with the open air but a short distance away! As I advanced I fancied that I heard the soft pattering of feet behind me. I halted and listened intently. I crouched against the wall and waited. But I 'heard nothing now except the distant roaring of the cataracts. How sweet they sounded now! I listened Intently, leaning against the wall and facing backward, holding my sword ready to meet any Intruder. But there was no sound from within, except the soughing which one hears In-lIa tunnel, and satisfied at last that I had been the victim of an over­ wrought imagination I pursued my course. But I had not gbne six paces before I heard \ a scream that still rings in my ears today, and a shadow sprang out of the darkness and rushed at me. It was old Charles Duchalne. His whlte:hair streamed behind him; his face bore an expression of indelible horror and rage,-and in his hand he held the other sword. He struck at me, a great, sweeping blow which would almost have cut me in two. I had just , time to parry it, and then he was upon me, .raining blows upon my outstretched sword. Though his attack was wild the yigor of his blows almost beat down my guard. At last a random blow of mine swept the weapon from his feeble old hand and sent it whirling down the cataract into the lake below. . Then, he was at my throat, and it was fortunate that there was firm rock instead of slippery ice beneath us, or we should both have followed the sword. ... ' “Calm yourself, for heaven’s sake, monsieur!” I gasped as I gained a mo­ mentary advantage over him. ’Don’t you know me? I am your friend. I want to.save you!” . “You shall not take me! I have done nothing! It was years ago I Let me go! Let me go!” he screamed. I released him for a moment, hoping that his disordered, brain would Calm enough for him to recognize me and that, when he saw my motives were peaceful he would grow' quiet . But suddenly, with a final howl, he sprang past me, sweeping me against the wall, and leaped out on the ledge. I held my breath. I expected to See him stagger to his death below. But he stood motionless In the middle of the little platform,, and stretched out his arms toward the raging torrent as though In invocation. Then he leaped across with the agility of a wild.sheep and rushed on into" the tunnel be­ yond. i I started back, keeping this time to the right side of the tunnel, until I heard the gurgling of the brook., Then I heard Jacqueline’s footstep. “Who is it?” she called wildly. “M. Hewlett! My father I” . I caught her as she swayed toward me. “He has gone Jacqueline,” I said. “I went into the tunnel to try to find He Struck at Me. the way. He had been feigning sleep and he crept after me. I tried to stop him. He was so frightened that I thought It best to let him go. He rah on into the tunnel—” “We must find him,” she said. “He will come back, Jacqueline.” "He will never come back!’’ she an­ swered. “He must have been planning this and waiting for me to sleep. He may be hiding somewhere. We must search for him.” "Let us go, then, Jacqueline," 'I an­ swered; ' ' I led her back into the tunnel on what was to be, I hoped, our final jour-, ney. We reached the ledge.. The star had faded now, and the whole sky was bright with the red clouds of dawn. At length I saw daylight aheacUof me—and there was no sound of {hie torrents. I left Jacqueline In the cave for a few moments and went Into the small­ er one near by, where I had seen the provisions on the preceding days. I found a 1 small box of hard biscuit, with which I stuffed the pockets of my coat, and, happier still, a small re­ volver and some cartridges, to which I helped myself liberally. Then I went back to Jacqueline, “Jacqueline/’ I said, “let us go on: Perhaps your father is on his way out­ side the tunnel,” . . “We cannot go without my father,” she answered, shaking her head in de­ termination. • “Jacqueline,” I said, “If we can And. your father you will come with me? Because it has occurred to me,” I went on, “that if he had come this way his footprints, would be in-the mud be­ side the stream. It would take an hour or two for them to fill up again: So perhaps he did not come this far, but is-hiding In some cave In the tun­ nel through which we came. Will you, wait for me here while I go back and search?” She nodded and I went back into •that Interminable tunnel again.(TO BE CONTINUED.)

I> NOT DISSIMLIAR TO THAT IN TREATY WITH GERMANY. ARMY IS REDUCED TO 30,000 iFlnanclal Terms Provide For Appori tionment of Pre-War Debt Among the Several New States. . Paris.—The full peace conditions cf tha allied and associated powers ate now in the hands of the Austrians. The first sections of the terms were presented to the Austrian delegates at St Germain,on June 2; the final sections- were delivered ' to them U the same place without ceremony by M. Dusatta, secretary-general of the peace conference. The terms com­ prise the whole treaty which Austria Js asked to sign, Including the repara­ tion, financial, military and . certain minor clauses, which were not ready for presentation when the official cer­ emony took place. In addition to the published sum- muy of the terms of June 2 the new clauses provide for reparation ar­ rangements very similar to those in the treaty with Germany, including the establishment of an Austrian sub-sec­ tion of the reparations commission, the payment of a reasonable sum In cash, the issuing of bonds and the de­ livery of livestock and certain histor­ ical and art documents.' The financial terms provide that the Austrian pre-war debt shall be appor­ tioned among the various former parts of Austria and that the Austrian coinage and war bonds circulating in the separated territory shall be taken up by the new government and re­ deemed as they'see fit Under the military terms the Aus­ trian army is henceforth reduced to 30,000 men on a purely voluntary basis. ANOTHER SERIOUS BRANCH OF NEUTRALITY IS PERPETRATED Washington.—The most serious of the recently growing list of attacks on Americans in Mexico came to light A boat load of American .sailors from the U: S.

Although the. sailors were fishing, they were on official duty bringing in food for their ship, and the American flag flying from the boat denoted that it was official business.

THELAWCMES $33,900,000 Several Sharp Clashes Marked' Debate on Elimination of Rider That Drew the President's Veto. ' Washington.—Renewed attempts -ol house Republican leaders to repeal daylight saving through a rider to the 930 agricultural appropriation bill, ^ere defeated in the house when Re­ publican opponents of repeal joined with the Democrats in voting to elim­ inate the repeal provision. Immediate- jy Afterward, without a dissenting vote, the agricultural bill, carrying $33 ,900,000 was passed and sent to the senate. Final action on the daylight saying repeal came after a day marked by sharp ,political clashes 'In both houses and committees. Democrats, includ­ ing those favoring repeal, refused tc join in making the repeal rider In or­ der, and in speeches on the floor at­ tacked the Republicans as “playing politics.” Republican leaders, how­ ever, insisted that the Tider alone would assure early passage of the ag­ ricultural bill which Democrats said was certain to be vetoed again by President Wilson, if it included the repeal provision. The senate, regarded as heavily in favor of repeal now has before it a house bill to repeal the daylight sav­ ing law. The senate, it was said 'by congressional leaders, may pass and send to the president the separate repeal measure. WITNESSES TESTIFY TO THE STATUS OF TRACTION LINES Washington.*—Witnesises teistttfying from their experience in operating traction lines since the beginning of the present era of high prices told the federal electric railways commis­ sion again the story of failure to make ends meet in the industry, and, renew­ ed the warning of an approaching cri­ sis unless public sentiment permits the general collection of greater reve­ nues for their services. By securing testimony bearing upon results in Scranton and Altoona, Pa., Portland, Me., and Wilmington, Del., the railways laid before the commis­ sion evidence designed to show that higher fares had solved the problem in localities where tried. Francis H. Sisson, vice president of the Guaranty Trust Company, of New York, ascribed most of the difficulties of the street railways to a decline oi 50 per cent since 1914 In the purchas­ ing power of (he dollar. Street railroad companies, he said were about the only utility which the government had not assisted during the war. FREIGHT EMBARGO PLACED ON COASTWISE TRAFFIC. New York.—A freight embargo on coastwise traffic was announced by the coastwise steamship companies, operating under federal control, as a result of the strike of seamen and en­ gineers along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. The order for the embargo was forwarded to shipping points by the United States railroad adminis­ tration. The embargo has been foreshadow­ ed for several days as a consequence of the rapid piling up of great quanti­ ties of freight, much of it perishable, at Atlantic and Gulf ports through the tying up of ships by the strikers. G. H. Brown, secretary of the seamen’s union, claimed that the entire ship­ ping of the country would be virtually tied up within two weeks if the strug­ gle continued. austrians may g et t h e “~ COMPLETE TREATY SOON.

HOUSE 1 S lR t ALL ATTEMPTS TO ELIMINATE CERTAIN DRASTIC SECTIONS IN LAW VOTED DOWN. YIGOBOtIS PROTESTS ENTERED In Proposed'Bill, Trial Bf Jury of Per- •ons Charged With Violating the Law Is Denied. Washington. — Prohibition forces yoted down in the house every at­ tempt to eliminate drastic provisions of the general enforcement bill, and while In full and absolute control cut off debate at the word of their leader despite the violent protest of the minority. When they had raced through the war-time enforcement portion of the three-part bill and got into the con- stitional prohibition measure proper, there were only 68 members on the floor and so much confusion that a speaker coifld not make himself heard. It was 7 o’clock when the long roll call to obtain a quorum was start­ ed, and members had then gone home, after declaring there was no good reason for trying to force through a bill to take care of a situation that would not arise until January. Before the house got into a snarl, however, the prohibition faction had fought oft every attack on their bill.' For a brief moment late in the day the minority—described by the pro­ hibitionists as the “wets”—swung into power, only to be thrown out by a de­ mand for tellers, which meant an ac­ curate count on vote to .. amend the bill so that a person charged with vio­ lating a liquor-selling injunction might obtain and demand a jury trial. ENORMOUS QUANTITIES OF FOOD IN STORAGE. Chicago;—In a report issued offi­ cials of the Illinois department of ag­ riculture declare that enormous quan­ tities of meats, butter and eggs are now In storage in Chicago warehouses chiefly under .control of ,the five big packers. The report states that sinoe the last regular compilation of figures June I; the stocks of these commodi­ ties have grown in abnormal propor­ tions and that their release would go far toward relieving the present short­ age and tend to reduce prices. 8ENAT0R BORAH ADVOCATE8 REFERENDUM ON LEAGUE. Woshmgton. — Proposing that the league of nations be left to- popular decision, Senator Borah, Idaho, Break­ ing in the senate, called upon the league supporters to join him in se­ curing a referendum. <. uThe President,” said Mr. Borah, 'has been sanding for senators and will, I understood, continue to do so until the quota is filled. It is a pol­ icy I endorse, I only1 regret that he began it so late In his administration. But it is not In accord with .the tenets of republican government to settle so great a question behind closed - doors either at thfc 1Wlilte House or any­ where else. “What I would do is to send for the people, and the way to do that ia to have a popular vote.” : NO AMERICAN CONSULS IN GERMAN P0RT8 YET. Paris.—There are no American con- suls In German ports as, yet ' British, EVench and other European consuls are already clearing ships. The Amer­ ican relief administration has cleared 'In German ports two food supply ships and one with ootton, but Di­ rector General Hoover refuses to is­ sue to additional ships without legal authority.

THE ACT MAY BE RE MODELED Threats Freely' Made to Hold Up the Bill Indefinitely Unless Daylight- Saving Clause Is Retained. Washington.—Republican leaders of ihe house, supported 6y party lead­ ers in the senate, agreed to attempt repassage- of the agriculture appro­ priation bill with its daylight saving rider despite the. President’s veto. Provisions of the daylight saving law authorizing the interstate commerce commission to fix standard time zones, however, would not be discarded. In line with this decision, made by the republican legislative steering comittee, and after assurances had been obtained that the rules commit­ tee would authorize the daylight sav­ ing repeal being incorporated in the appropriation bill, Chairman .Haugen, of the house agriculture committee, reintroduced the agriculture bill. House republican leaders, although doubting that the remodeled measure, with the repeal provision, would meet objections of President Wilson, said that many democratic members would Juiti with a majority of the republicans in passing the new measure. Chair­ man Gronna and other members of the senate agricultural committee, they said, ijad insisted on incorpora­ tion of the repeal provision, threaten­ ing to hold up early passage of the bill without the repeal section. ..Pot this reason, they asserted, no other course of action was open. PROPOSED RADICAL ACTION ENDANGERING PROHIBITION. Washington. — Conservative mem­ bers of the prohibition faction in the house set out to curb what they de­ scribed as radical attempts to make the pending enforcement bill so dras­ tic that it might create a revulsion of feeling throughout the country on the whole question of liquor drinking. Warning was given by the conserva­ tives that if the Tadical element went too far and added other severe re­ strictions they would be certain to in­ vite defeat in the senate, and possibly find all of their work thrown out by a presidential veto. The need of wise counsel was pointed out by the con­ servative prohibitionists in view ol the published announcement that Rep­ resentative Morgan, RepuMtoarf, o<{ Oklahoma, and a member of the judi­ ciary committee, had given notice that he would endeavor to make it a violation of law for a man to keep a jug of liquor in his own home for his own use. Word was spread during the day that other prohibitionists' were pre­ paring to write into the bill a pro­ vision, stricken out by the committee, which would prohibit a man’s “using” any little liquor he might happen to have around the house. GENERAL DENIAL IS MADE BY WILLIAMS BEFORE COMMITTEE Washington.—John Sharp Williams, comptroller of the currency, was be­ fore the senate ibanking committee the entire day and made a general denial of the charges made by Wade Cooper, a Washington banker, which he brand­ ed as “wantonly faise and malioious.” He submitted to the committee a letter from Director Generol of Rail­ roads Hines absolving him from any connection with the making of a com­ pensation contract with the Georgia and Florida railroad. Previous wit­ nesses haad charged that the comp­ troller had by his silence as director of finance of the railroad administra­ tion approved a contract greatly to the advantage of the Georgia and Morlda road with which he was formerly con­ nected. ... > GUARANTEED WHEAT PRICE RAISED TO $2.30 BUSHEL Washington. — President Wilson signed an executive order • increasing the guaranteed priec of the 191D wheat croft to f 2.30 per ibushel at Galveston and New Orleans. It is expected chat the high .price !established i_for wheat at Galveston and'New Orleans will divert a part of the crop’s flow to export from At­ lantic terminals, and thus relieve the strain 'on common carriers and termi­ nal facilities.

Virginia, was trying to persuade her mother to go to the home-coming cele­ bration and stay all day. “But it will be too hot, dear,” mother remonstrated. “We’ll lust go up for a. while in the morning while It’s cool and then we'll come home for dinner and rest during the afternoon.” But Virginia was not persuaded, and continued the arguing. Father chanced to overhear her. “What’s the matter In here?” he asked, coming into the room. “What’s the difference between you two?” ■ Quickly came Virginia’s retort. “It’s just a difference in our patriot­ ism; mother’s only patriotic in the morning and I am all day;”—Indian­ apolis News. • Worst Part of It. “Why .do you waste, your days and nights on these pictures?” asked the wife of a struggling painter. “You don’t get enough* for them to pay for the paint you use.” “I know, my dear,” he answered, “but think!

NEW RAIL PLANS I ON SOUND BASIS i -■ !Congress Determined to Make j Certain Future Growth of I Transportation Facilities. PLANS AGREE ON PRINCIPLES. !Return of Roads to Owners With • Assurance of Adequate I Revenues. I WashIngton1-O ne of the bis prob­ lems before the new Congress is get­ ting the railroads back on a peace 'basis. These 260,000 miles of steel highways were taken over by the Gov­ ernment as an Indispensable arm of ' ’the national defense; but now that their war service is over, there is a country-wide demand that the Gov­ ernment restore them to their owners to be operated on normal American business standards of efficiency. But, as has been pointed out by President Wilson as well as by many men: In public life who have given this subject years of careful study, it is not enough simply to say to the ■railroad companies, “Take these rail­ roads' and give the country the best transportation service that money and brains can provide.” Old Laws Obstruct Growth. The President recently said that it would be a serious mistake to return to the old conditions of railroad regu­ lation without reforming the anti­ quated laws that were obstructing the free development of transportation fa­ cilities. The Director General of Rail­ roads has recently made an inspection trip from coast to coast, and he lias been telling the people that the time ;nas now come to put the railroads on a sound foundation. : The plans for a better system of national control of railroads are as varied as were the plans for banking ;and currency reform when Congress I received a mandate from the people 'to provide insurance against financial !panics. The public now demands in­ surance against a breakdown of rail­ road transportation, and the new Con- •gress is undertaking this work as sec­ ondary only to insurance against in­ ternational warfare. Congress solved ,the banking problem seven years ago as a non-partisan issue, In- which all ithe people had a common Interest, and [Congress evidently is tackling the railroad problem with the same spirit. While the many plans that have ■Been proposed differ in the methods Ito be adopted in reaching the desired !goal, It has been pointed out by Sena- itor Cummins of Iowa that all these •plans have really very much In com­ mon—so much so that he is confident [that Congress will have little difficulty 'In framing a bill that will meet with ^popular approval, and that will take jthe railroad "question out of politics rfor many years to come, j Many Plans With One Aim. i The Iowa Senator has a command- ; Ing position In this Congress because he [is the ranking member of the Interstate !Commerce Committee of the United !States Senate, and it is in this com- ,mlttee that the new railroad bill will !take final form. In an address before 'a national meeting of business men .at St Louis Senator CummIds stated !that Since the close of the war.fully thirty MiTiplete plans for'new railroad legislation had been submitted to him liy business men, economists, bankers, railroad officials and owners, Govern merit officials, railroad workers and just plain citizens. The basic principles upon which all of these plans, with one exception, agree are as follows: 1. Private operation is more effi­ cient and more economical than Government operation, and the public .interest will therefore lie served by a return of the roads to private management. 2. To make: certain that new capital will be attracted to the expansion of railroad facilities, there ought to be greater certain- • ty that a fair return will be earn­ ed on the Investment 3. The merging of weak and strong roads into large competing syntems should be encouraged. The nitiking of a formula to pro­ vide a fair return on*railroad capital seems likfl.v to be (lie phase of the problem most thoroughly debated in Congress. The Director General, has heeii urging Iliat the Government ought to guarantee a certain return and share in any excess earnings. Lending bankers, especially some of the international bankers in AVall street, who have In the past marketed many hundreds of millions of railroad securities, also look favorably on the suggestion of a Government guaran­ tee, which will make it easier to sell new securities, and will also stabilize the market for the old bonds and stocks. Government Guarantee Opposed. But the proposal that the Govern­ ment shall guarantee the interest and dividends on private capital invested In railroads will undoubtedly meet with very vigorous opposition in many quarters. Evert railroad executives, who might be supposed to take kindly to the idea of a Government guarantee against failure, have frankly stated that they do not want it, because they believe it is un-American in principle, would tend to lessen efficiency, and wo uM Jsvolve the roads in a Govern­ ment partnership that would inevi;a bly lead to Government ownership Summer Complaint in Children. There is not anything like ' so many deaths from this disease now as before Chamberlain’s Colic and Diarrhoea Reme­ dy came into such general use When this remedy is given with castor oil as di­ rected and proper care is taken as to diet, it is safe to sav that fully ninety-nine out of every hundred cases recover.

A procession will lie formed at the new academy in alnmt two hours and proceed from Uience to the court house where Uie ceremonies will be corn- irtcm t-d with prayer by the Rev. Dr. Freeman, after which Beveral patriotic songs will be sung, when the Declaration of Independence will be read by M aj.

On the' whole I ex­ pect that before night we shall have fighting and fun in great abundance.” "Sunday, July 4, 1824.—I was mistaken yesterday as-to the de­ parture of the mails, - it comes in Saturda, but does not go out again until Tuesday—and I have broken the seal of this l e t t e r ust to tell you this.

Tlie will, dispos ing of about $20,000, has just been filed at Jamaica. The entire es­ tate is left to the widow, Gerez- menyharb Baird, and she is ap ­ pointed executrix. A clause in the will reads: “ I waht to say to the world that my wife, in my estimation, is the most perfect woman I ever saw, heard or know of. She is endow* ed with marvelous courage, a very . strong wili*and an intensely high ideal of honor. H er love has nev­ er at any time diminished, but has grown always, until.I feel it. has Reached a point; that can reason­ ably be considered the acme of per­ fect love. I am the richest of men in that I am blest with the truest most-honorable and loving wife in the world.” Major Baird also said in his will he had never broken any pledge or promise to his wife, nor bad he ever deceived or told her a false­ hood, .“ except as were necessary to buy her presents and to pleas­ antly Biiprise and cheer her.” Colds Cause Grip and Influenza LAXATiVE BkOMO QUININE Tablets remove the cause. . ..There Jg only one; "Bromo Quinine.” E.W.GRbVE’S rig n ^ e o h b o x . 30a Habitus!

Just as the President step- " ped through the entrance a sinister looking bundle was dropped in front of him by a suspicious looking per- Bon. There was a minute "of awful suspense and the statue of freedom which tops the dome shuddered with apprehension. Drawing a deep breath Major Raymond Pullman, , the dapper chieftain of. the' Wash . ington police force, tip-toed to the rescue, Cautiously the, bundle was raised from the ground ; and with the delicacy of touch with which the swaddling clotheB were later removed from the league of- nations the bundle was unwrapped. The report was made that it contained nothing more explosive or incendi­ ary than the bolshevik fulminations of the Washington Times, edited by A rthur Brisbane, so the country was saved and the' heart of the world was not broken. It developed later that the bundle had. been nrev Iously examined by one of the (Tap itol police and pronounced safe, if not sane. ; Itis now rumored that Major Pullman will be decorated with a medals depicting Ajax defy ing the lightning, and he may later be sent to England to receive knight­ hood at the bands of good King George.

On July :4th, the people of this county celebrated the anniversary of their- Declartion of Independence. Every thoughtful man and woman rejoiced that our forefathers had made it possible for us to enjoy the liberties of this heaven-favored land. But how many stopped to think that if the League of Nations had then existed we would still be a' colony of Great Britain, for France could hot have come to our assistsnce? How many stopped to think that if we enter a League of Nation as proposed we shall, as. we sign that covenant/sign the doom of every people on earth to keep them from winning the freedom we enjoy? In signing that covenant we wonld sign a contract to fight China southg to wrest from Japan its own favored Shantung province. How many stopped to think that to the extent of all our wealth and man power we would guarantee to help maintain the present territor­ ial boundaries of every nation in the League against any outside aggress­ ion, and that France’s aid to us in the Revolutionary War was outside aggression against England in our behalf? How many stopped to think th a t every American voice raised for the League of Nations is a voice to send our soldiers—your own sons— to fight any battles in India or China or Egypt or the Balkans or Turkey when so directed by the League of Nations even though our own people might at the time be bitcerly oppos­ ed to such action? Our independence and our ability to act as in our own judgement we might desire would be forever gone —a super-Government would tell us what to do and what not to do. Are you willing thus to sign away our own liberty, to send our soldiers into every world battle and to guar­ antee the territorial integrity of °'’ery nation for all time to come?- Ex. “W. S. S.” Trade Days For Mocksville. A few years ago The Record, to- gether with a number of citizens, got up two or three trade days for. Mocksville. They were a success in every way, The Record is in favor of having three such days this fall- the first Monday in September, Oc­ tober and November. We believe the merchants and professional men in the town will offer enough prem­ iums to make the days successful. Prizes will be given for the best pair of chickens, best hog. sheep, corn, potatoes, pumpkins, colts, cake, pre­ serves,-jellies, canned goods, etc. Various amusements, consisting of sack races, foot races, mule races greasy pig races, etc.. would be en­ joyed by those in attendance. We will take this m atter up with the citizens of the town and announce­ ment will be made in an early issue of TheRecord as to what will be' done. If the citizens of the town will co-operate with us, we feel that the three days will be a success. Let’s all get ready for a big day on the first Monday in September. “W. S. S.” Mrs. E. L.

This interpretation of the Presi­ dent’s expectations was expressed by Senator Spencer, republican, Mis­ souri, after a long talk with Mr. Wil­ son about'the treaty. Senator Spencer discussed with the President the subject of reservations in senate ratification of the treaty, taking with him to the White House a draft of five reservations drawn up and submitted to the President,' it is understood, at the suggestion of Chair­ man Lodge, of the foreign relations committee. ' The reservations covered the Mon­ roe doctrine, withdrawal, Shantung, national determination of domestic is­ sues and independence of action un­ der Article'10. lMr. Spencer told the President that without some such qualifications the treaty never could be ratified, while if they were includ ed ratification would come quickly.

Mitchell Palmer, before the state judiciary sub-com­ mittee, renewed his fight for senate confirmation of his nomination as at­ torney general and vigorously defend­ ed his administration as alien prop­ erty custodian. He replied to charges of improper administration of alien property, made.by Harold Remington, a New York lawyer, and Leslie S. Ken- nard, an Indiana attorney, holding a position in the alien property custo­ dian’s office. General charges of improper admin­ istration were made by Mr. Kennard ih a statement recently submitted to ths committee by Senator New, and answered by Mr, Palmer, who pre­ sented an affidavit from Mr. Kennard repudiating his previous statement. Referring to the statement of Mr. Kennard, Mr. Palmer said he had learned that Horace Stilwell, of An­ derson, Ind., an uncle of Kennard, had had Senator New present Kennard’s statement to the committee in exec­ utive session. Kennard was said by the attorney general to be “an incon­ spicuous $2,000 clerk” in the custo­ dian’s office and not in a position to have information bearing on his charges: One of Mr. Kennard’s charges, Mr. Palmer stated* was that he, Palmer, had failed to seize property of Turk­ ish subjects in this country. ‘'In the first place,” Mr. Palmer re­ plied, "there wasn’t very much Turk­ ish property in this country. Besides there was a very good diplomatic rea­ son—fear of barbarous reprisals upon Americans in Turkey.

IMMEDIATE SALE OF SURPLUS FbODSTUFFS RECOMMENDED * rum for sot FORMER PRESIDENT SUGGESTS IjDEA TO PREVENT RADICAL CHANGES IN TREATY. WILSON HY JOT BE AVERSE Mr. Taft’s Suggestions Contained In Letter to Republican Chairman Hayes, Caused a Sensation. , WashbiiKton--lImmediate sale of the $120 ,000,000 surplus stock of food­ stuffs held by thie war department im- der. * plan which will “insure oppor­ tunity for the people of ' the United States to !buy” was recommended, by the 10 KepuWican members of the house war investigating committee. The five' Democratic committeemen withheld decision, pending a review of evidence taken by a gib-ooiommittee Washington.—-A plan for "interpre­ tations” in senate acceptance of the league of nations has been suggested by former President Taft in the hope of uniting on a middle ground enough democratic and republican senators to defeat any radical amendment of the covenant and in the end obtain its ratification. The suggestion has been received with earnest consideration by the group of republicans who favor the league idea and- who already are at. work on a definite program of inters pretative reservations which they de­ clare they have reason to believe will be accepted by the administration. The administration leaders however, unwilling to concede that any reser­ vations will.be necessary, still insist they will have the votes when the' time comes to ratify the covenant as it is. So. conadent are the league repub­ licans of the success of their plan that some of them believe President Wil­ son will publicly accept it to smooth the way to acceptance of the league. Some republican senators who have seen the President In the last few days have come away from the White Httuse with- the ■ impression that Mr; Wilson while not eneouraging reser­ vations if they can be avoided, might not he adverse to such interpretations as would leave the league fabric unim­ paired. They say, however, that this impression is not based on any direct statement by the President Mr. Taft's suggestion, which created a sensation In the senate because of his well known advocacy ot unreserv­ ed ratification, was embodied in two letters to Will H. Hayes, the republi- canjnational chairman,copies- ofwhieh reached some republican senators.

MOOKSVILLE, MOgTig CAROLINA IBMIIIIIIIII* Jacqueline of Golden River By VICTOR ROUSSEAU SIIBIBIIIIBIIBIffllIBIIIiniir CHAPTER XIX. —14 — The Bait That Lured. I went along the tunnel In the direc­ tion of Ie Vlell Ange1 picking my way .very carefully, peering into the numer­ ous small caves and Assures In the wall on either hand. And I was about half way through when I saw a shadow running in front of me and making no sound. It was Duchalne. There could be no mistaking that tall, gaunt figure, just visible against the distant day. I raced along the tunnel after him. But he seemed to be endowed with the speed of a deer, for he kept his dis­ tance easily, and I would never have caught him had he not stopped for an Jnstant at the approach of the ledge. There, Just as he was poising him­ self to leap, I seized him by the arm. He did. not attempt violence but •gazed at me with hesitation and pa­ thetic doubt. “M. Duchalne,” I pleaded, “won’t you come back with me and let us talk it over? Jacqueline is with me—” “No, no,” he cried, laughing. “Ton can’t catch me with such a trick as that. My little daughter has gone to New Tork to make our fortunes at M. Daly’s gaming house. She will be back soon, loaded down with gold.” “She has come back," I answered. “She Is not fifty j;ards away.” “With gold?" he inquired, looking at me doubtfully. .“With gold,” I answered, trying to allure his imagination as Leroux had done. “She has rich gold, red gold, such as you will love. Tou can take up the coins In your fingers and let the gold stream stip through them. Come with, monsieur.” I grasped him by the arm and tried ,to lead him with me. Hy argument had moved him. I thought I- had won. But just as I started back into, the tunnel, holding- the. arm of the old man, who lingered reluctantly and yet began to yield, a pebble leaped from the rocky platform and rebounded from the cliff. I tast a backward glance, and there upon the opposite side I saw-Lerous standing. “Bonjour, M. Hewlett!” he called across the chasm. “Don’t be afraid of me any more than I am afraid of yon. Just wait a moment I want to talk business." “I have no business to talk with you,” I answered. “But I did not say It was with you, monsieur,” he answered in sneering tones. “It is with our friend Duchalne. Hoia, Duchalne!” At the sound of Leroux’s voice th'e old man straightened himself and be­ gan muttering and locking from, the one to the other of us Undecidedly. Suddenly I saw him turn his head' and fix ‘his eyes upon Leroux. He craned his peck forward; and then, very slowly, he began to walk toward his persecutor. I craned my neck. - Leroux was holding out—the rou- • Iette wheel! “Come along, Charles, my friend,” he cried. “Come, let ws try our for­ tunes ! Don’t you want to stake some money upon your system against me?” The old figure had leaped forward over the ledge, and in a moment Le- roux had grasped him und pulled him into the tunnel. I hastened back to Jacqueline and encountered her in th<> passage just where the light and darkness blended, standing with arms stretched out against the wall to steady herself; and In her eyes was that look which tells a man more surely than anything, I think, can, that a woman loves him. "Oh, I thought you were dead I" she • sobbed, and fell into my arms. ■ I held her tightly to support her, and .I led her back to the gold cave. In a few words I explstoed what had occurred. “Now Jacqueline, yon must let me guide you,” I said. "Don’t you see that there is no chance for us .unless we leave your father fof the present where he is and make oir own escape? We can reach, Pere Antolne’s cabin, soon after midday,' a n i’we can tell him your-father is a prisoner here. He would not come with us, Jacqueline, even if he were liere.” She did not respond. It was the safety of us two and her father’s life assured, against a miserable fate for her, and I knew not what for me, though I thought Lereux would give the little Shrift once I was In his power again. She was Bo slIent that I ’thought I had convinced her. I urged her to her feet But suddenly I heard a stealthy footfall dose at hand, between the Cave and the cataract I thought it was Charles Duchalne. . I hoped it was Leroux. I placed my finger on Jacqueline’s lips and crept stealthily to the passage, revolver in -hand.' ; ,v ,, '' ’ Then, In the gloom, I ‘saw the villain- ous face of JeanP.etitJean looking into mine, twelve. paces, away, and in his hand was a-jsevotyer .jtoo. ■ j . We flredtogetber. Butthe surprise spoiledhis,aim, for his bullet .whip-., tied' past. me. J, .-thlrik, my shot struck him somewhere, for he uttered a yefl and began Tunning back along tunnei as hard as he could. - Copyright, W. Q- Chapman I followed him, firing as fast as I could reload. Fortune helped the ruf­ fian. foir when I reached the light he was scrambling across the ledge, and before I could cover him he had suc­ ceeded In disappearing behind the pro­ jecting rock on the other side. So Leroux had already sealed one exit—that by the Old Angel, where the road led into the main passage. God grant that he had not time to reach the exit by the mine! If I made haste I M I made haste! But I would not argue the matter any further. I ran back at full speed. I reached the cave. “Jacqueline I Come, come I” I called. She did not answer. I ran forward, peering round me In the obscurity. I saw her near the earth-sacks, lying upon her side. Her eyes were closed, her face as white as a dead woman’s. The bullet from Jean Petitjean’s re- volver that missed me must have pen­ etrated her body. She lived, for her breast stirred, though so faintly that it seemed as though all that remained of life were concentrated In the faint-throbbing heartbeats. I raised her in my arms and placed a sack beneath her head, making a The Villainous Face of Jean Petitjean. resting place for her with my fur coat. Then with my knife I cut away her dress over the wound. There was a bullet hole beneath her breast stained with dark blood. I ran down to the rivulet risking an ambus­ cade, brought back cold water, and washed it, and stanched the flow as best I could, making a bandage and placing it above the wound. I have a dim remembrance of losing my self-control when tills was done, and clasping her in my arms and press­ ing my lips to her cold cheek and beg­ ging her to live and praying wildly that she should not die. Then I raised her In my arms and was stag­ gering across the cave toward the tun­ nel which led to the rocking stone. And then, just as I approached the barricade of earth-filled bags Leroux and the man Baoul emerged from the tunnel’s mouth and ran toward me. I stopped behind the barricade. Presently I saw something white fluttering from the tunnel. It was a white handkerchief upon a stick of wood. Then Leroux’s voice bailed me from the tunnel, “Hewlett!” he called, and there was no trace of mockery in his tones now, “will you come out and talk with me? Will you meet me in the open, if you prefer?” I fired one shot in futile rage. It struck the cliff and sent a stone flying into the stream. , Then silence followed. ,And I took Jacqueline and carried her back into the little hollow space. I put my hand upon her breast It stirred. Sbe breathed faintly, though she showed no. sign of con: sciousness. Beaven knows what was . In my mind. I stood beneath that awful cat­ aract firing at the blind rock,’ and now I was hack behind the earth:bags shooting into the tunnel. So the afternoon wore away. . The sun had. sunk behind the cliffs.. Ihad fired away all but six of my cartridges. Then the memory bi my similar act of fplly before came home to ine.

I carried Jacqaeline inside and began laboriously to' drag the'bags of earth into this last refuge. Before it had grown quite dark I had barricaded Jacqueline and myself within a place the size of a hall bedroom inclosed upon three sides with rock. And there I waited for the end. I sat beside Jacqueline, holding her hand with one of mine, and my re­ volver In the other. There was a faint flutter at her wrist I fancied that it had grown stronger during the past half hour. But I was unprepared to hear her whisper to me, and when she spoke I was alert in a moment “Paul!” she said faintly. “Jacqueline!” “Paul! Bend down. I want to speak to you. Do you know I have been conscious for a long time, my dear? I have been thinking. Are you distressed because of me?” “My dear!” I said; and that was all that I could say. I clasped her cold little hand tightly in mine.' “Tou must leave me, Paul, because— because of what is between us. Tou must go to Leroux and tell him so. Tou love me, Paul?” “Always, Jacqueline,” I whispered She put her arms about my neck. “I love you, Paul,” she said. “It seems so easy to say it In the dark, and it used to be so hard. Do you know what I admired and loved you for, even when you thought my mind unstable and empty? How true you were! It was that, dear. It was your honor, Paui. “That was why, when I remembered everything that dreadful night in IJie snow, the -revulsion was so terrible. I ran away In horror. I could not believe that it was true—and yet I knew it was true. “And Leroux was waiting there and found roe. I did not want to leave you, but he told me there was Pere Antoine’s cabin close by, and that you would come to no harm. And he made me-believe—you had stolen my money as well. But I never believed that,, and I only taunted you with it to drive you away for your own sake.” She drew me weakly toward her and went on: “Now that we are to. part forever, and perhaps I am to die, I can speak to you from my heart and tell you, dear. Kissme—as though I were your wife, Paul. “So you will go to Leroux,” she added presently. “Is that your will, Jacqueline?” “Tes, dear,” she saifi. “Because we have fought, and now we are beaten, Paul.” I bowed my head. I knew that she spoke the truth. I knew at last that was vanquished. For, now ,that Jacqueline Ityr there so weak, so help- ;s, and thinking all our past was but a dream, there was nothing but to yield. I could not fight any more. So I left her and climbed cross the bags and went down toward the stream. But before I had reached it a dark figure slipped from among the shad­ ows of the rocks and ,came toward me; and by.the faint starlight I saw the face of Pierre Caribou! He stopped me and held me by both shoulders, and he drew me into the recesses of the rocks and bent his wizened old face forward toward mine. “Ah, monsieur, so you did not obey old Pierre Caribou and stay In the cave,” he said. “Pierre, I did not know that you would return.” I answered. “Never mind,*’ the Indian answered, looking at me strangely. “All finish' now. Diable take Leroux, His time come. Diable show me!” “How?” I answered, startled. “All finish,” said Pierre inexorably, and, as I watched him a superstitious fear crept over me. He, who had cringed, even when he gave the com­ mand, now cringed no longer, and there was a look In his old face that I had only seen on one man’s before— on my father’s the night he died. "Pierre, where is Leroux?” I whis­ pered. ‘^Shall I surrender to him or shall I fight?” . “No matter,” he said once again. “M’sleur, suppose you go back to ma’m’selle, and soon Simon come. His diable lead him to you. His dldble tell' you what to say.' AU finish now!” He walked past me noiselessly, a tenuous' Shadow, and his bearing was as proud as that of his tace had been in the long ago, when they were lords where now their white masters ruled. / (TO BE CONTINUED.)

SlMUR Tfl ORDINARY RAIX Protection Afforded From Moisture In Ground and Canvas Cover Pre­ vents Injury From Rain—Con* t slderable Labor Ie Saved. (P repared by th e U nited S tates D epart­m ent of A griculture.) A new method of curing hay eco­ nomically nnd effectively, even under unfavorable weather conditions, Is made possible lftr the use of hay trucks, which are simple, cheaply constructed labor-saving devices similar to ordi­ nary hay racks. A hay truck consists of a frnme.mounted on two low wheels. A number of them are placed about the field, and are used to stack the partly cured hay on. The hay is thus protected from moisture in the ground, and a canvas cover prevents Injury from rain. When the hay is to be hauled to the barn or baler no reload­ ing is necessary, for the team can be . ij ,I'!! Il I’ 1 Main Frame of Truck (A), With Rack Indicated by Dotted Lines. „ hitched to the truck. These trucks can be used to advantage when pro­ tecting bound grain from the rain un­ til it Is ready to be thrashed and for hauling to the silo, etc. It is estimated that a truck and the necessary canvas (9 feet by 14 feet) costs about $20. How the Truck Is Made. A hay truck 12 feet long by 7 feet wide will hold about 1,500 to 2,000 pounds of cured hay. It consists of a rack which rests on an A-shaped frame. At the rear, the frame is sup­ ported by two 16 to 20 inch wheels placed about 4 feet from the end. The front is supported by a 6 by 8-inch wooden block of sufficient length to hold the truck level. This is known as the trigger, and is fastened by a heavy bolt between the two main frame tim­ bers near where they come together. Upright standards ane placed at each end of the frame in an A-shaped posi­ tion. At the top of each standard a notch Is cut to receive a 2 by 4 inch ridge pole that supports the canvas covering and keeps it from lying flat on the hay, thus permitting the air to circulate freely at the top. The truck Is moved by means of- a 2-horse team and a 2-wheel running gear, similar to the Aont running gears of a low-wheel- ed wagon. This gear is attached to the front end of the truck by means of a long clevis pin, and when the team starts the forward movement causes the trigger to trip and drag on the ground, the weight of the load being thus shifted to the running gears. Upon reaching the barn or baling machine the team Is backed a step or two, which causes the trigger to assume an upright position and again support the front end of the load. How to Use the Truck. Hay may be partly cured before It Is placed on the truck Io avoid danger from heating and spoiling. It Is de­ sirable to do the last third or fourth of the curing on a truck under a can- SORGHUMS 9ARE GOOD CROPS FOR SILAGE Urged That They Be GrowR More Extensively for Feed. Plants Need Less Moisture Than Com a nd 'In Many Sections Will Produce Larger Yield of For­ age-Desirable Variety. ^ (Prepared by the U nited States D epart- . m ent of A griculture.) . Because sorghums are good crops .to grow for silage in regions of light rain­ fall, the United States department of agriculture is urging that they be grown more extensively in those sec­ tions to insure ample feed for stock. Sorghums need less moisture than- corn and In many sections will pro­ duce a larger yield of forage per acre. When properly made Into silage they supply a succulent , feed which has a high feeding value. Bither the saccha­ rine (sweet) or. the nonsaccharine (nonsweet) varieties are used. Of the former the orange and amber va­ rieties are the most desirable vari­ eties and of the latter kafir, milo, and feterlta are common varieties. Exper­ iments at the Kansas experiment sta­ tion show that silage made from kafir and sweet sorghum is nearly equal In value to «)rn silage for feeding cows that produce milk. Since the differ­ ence In the results was not great, it Is apparent that when the'sorghums give a considerably larger yield per acre, as is the case In seasons of drought, and In sections where there is limited amount of rainfall, they are the more profitable source of silage. To obtain a good quality of silage from sorghum it Is very important that they he cut at the proper stage of ma­ turity. This stage Is reached when the seed is mature. Testing the stage of maturity of sorghum may be done by twisting a stalk In the hands and noting the amount of sap It contains. If it contains much sap, the crop is too green to be made into'silage, and if put up at this stage sour silage Is sure to result, especially with the sweet sorghum, which is high In sugar content. It is better to risk frost than to put the sorghum Into the silo be­ fore maturity. A crop that has not been siloed before frost should be put up Immediately after, and water should be added to keep it from becoming dry.

When the yield of hay is light, it is a good plan to mow it in the morning, rake it In the after­ noon and put it on the trucks in the evening or next morning, after the dew is.off. When the yield is above ft ton per acre, the hay.should be-iiiowed In the morning, tedded the next morning and raked In the windrows before noon, where it should be allowed to lie for. about two hours before put on the trucks. , ^ The use of the hay ,truck, effects a considerable saving I n labor over the common method of cocking and load­ ing from the cock,by haijd.

Acre —Save Them. It is estimated that the fertilizing value of cornstalks, when they can­ not be fed, is from five to fifteen dol­ lars per acre,, according to the quality and conditions obtaining in the soil. At present prices of fertilizer a con­ servative average would be ten dol­ lars. CROWDING IN HOT WEATHER Coops 8hc>uld Be Open Enough So That They Will Be'Cool—Keep but Few Chicks In Coop. Chicks are as likely to crowd In the coops ' when the weather Is hot as they are when .it is cool, particularly if frightened ; therefore but few should be allowed In each coop, and the coops should be open enough so that they will: be cool.

A sandwich may lie filled with meat, chicken or fish, making a sandwich which Is in itself a meal, or filled with sweets, a des­ sert or a dainty to serve with a cup of tea or a Slass Y^Tlin cooling beverage. Cold meat put “ through the meat chopper, with a sweet pickle or two and bound together with a salad dress­ ing, makes a good sandwich and one In which leftovers may be used with­ out remarks from the family.- ~Veal and Tongue Sandwiches.—Put the veal and tongde through the meat chopper and moisten with a small amount of soup stock; season with paprika and nutmeg. Spread on but­ tered bread after chilling the meat. Any kind of meat, minced or-sliced, mixed with various seasonings such as capers, pickles, nuts or Olivesj Wlll make, with a little ingenuity of the cook, a countless number of good and appetizing sandwiches. Thinly sliced radishes, cucumbers, onions, chopped green peppers and let­ tuce make most tasty sandwich fill­ ings. • Olives, either-stuffed,- green or ripe, may ^e mixed with nuts and boiled dressing, or added to cr^im cheese or to cottage cheese. Cottage cheese with chopped candie-1 cherries (or cream cheese is richer), makes a most tasty sandwich for a sweet sandwich. Chopped celery and cheese (the American) and Roquefort are all good as filling. A club sandwich. Is enjoyed by the men prepared as follows: Place a slice of tomato with salad dressing on a buttered slice of rye bread, add a layer of cream- cheese mixed with chopped nuts, then top with a slice of rye bread. Chopped hard-cooked egg mixed with butter, a pinch of mustard, salt and- pepper makes a most appetizing sand­ wich. - Life is n o t so com plex if w e do n o t p e rsist In m aking it so.

FOOD FOR HOT DAYS. There Is nothing that takes the place of' good vegetables for hot weather dishes; they rank with fruit In Impor­ tance. A healthy ' diet must include vegetables, for they not only build up the bones and teeth but supply bulk, which is an essential to intestinal movement; their chief value is in their mineral salts, Which are needed to make good blood and produce changes In the body ceils which ore necessary to keep the body young and supple. A rule, which has no exceptions, Is to cook vegetables in boiling water and most liquors should be saved for soups or to serve as a sauce with the vegetable; the liquor from beets is one to except String beans served with a bitter sauce or In a rich cream sauce are delicious, but for variety cook them two ,to three hours with a quarter of a pound, of salt pork or a few slices of bacon if preferred. Cook down with .the saucepan nncovered until the moisture Js nearly all absorbed and evaporated, then add a tablespoon­ ful or two of vlnegai;, salt If heeded, and a dash of cayenne. > . Creamed Onions and Tops.—Xake finger-sized onions, cut, leaving- a three-inch-stem, cook until tender .and serve In white sauce on. toast as as­ paragus is served. Young beets, tops and ail, are very good served as a vegetable. Cook them until tender, chop or cut up In coarse bits and serve with butter and vinegar. The secret of savoriness In vegetables Is care In seasoning. Db not- always serve the same dish with the same seasonings. \ ■ When teaching a child to like a cer­ tain kind of vegetable .make.it as .at­ tractive as possible In appearance, and go farther to avoid disappointment;, make it so tasty that no further urg­ ing Is necessary., •, Such ' vegetables as ’ tender green peas should be cooked In as little water as possible, not to lose the good flavor. For this reason steaming Is an economical method to use. The French cook peas In IeUuce leaves in the top of the steamer ; the-lettuce is served as greens, making;, a: most tasty dlsh.

The last and loveliest of summer millinery makes its appearance for wear In July and August, to be suc­ ceeded by less fanciful and less airy headwear for late summer and early fall. There is not the prodigal use of trimmings on hats for late summer that appears In hats for spring and early summer. Things must look sim­ ple and cool for hot days, and besides the pendulum of fnshion swings con­ stantly first toward trimmings and then away from them', In order to be forever changing the' styles, inasmuch as changing styles are the breath of life to merchandising. The story of late summer millinery is considerably longer this year than for many summers past. In casting about for something new, designers used to turn their backs upon summer fabrics and trimmings and forestall au­ tumn by using its materials in August. We were likely to see velvet hats In the dog days and woolly felts long b.efore they fit In with any background that summertime provides. In spite of the outrage to their sense-of fitness many women would follow this fashion and it proved bad business. Of course it had to end, and this summer there is a world of hats made specially for late summer, of summer materials but dif­ fering from their predecessors. only three of all the lovely galaxy of late summer models appear In the group above and each is entirely dif­ ferent from the others. At the top of the group a close-fitting turban hav­ ing a very narrow brim, covered with a light paon velvet, Is swathed with a long scarf of figured chiffon in the oriental manner. The chiffon winds about the shape and trails off at the back in a long scarf end which , is brought about the throat and shoul­ ders. This is a very simple affair, but it will never pass unnoticed or be quickly forgotten for IJt has character that is unusual. Just below at the right the well­ loved big black hot of midsummer im­ presses us once again with its refine­ ment and its beauty.. It has a braid crown and a brim of black malines, with flowing lines emphasized by loops of braid. A collar of black velvet rib­ bon is tied about the crown with a wide bow at the front, having a jet bar at the center. At the left a pale pink summer felt has its upper brim cov­ ered with satin and a sash of satin ribbon about the crown. A bow and ends at the back, and a flower made of the ribbon, at the front, give a good account of themselves by fnrnishlDg a youthful trimming for the’headwear of a young girl. BEACH CLOTHES GROW CAPTIVATING 11 6 Such numbers of new and beautiful things for beach wear have made their, appearance along With . hot Weather, that' batliers make a panorama’; on the sands more interesting than ever. There are many vagaries in suits and wraps.,that bloom like gorgeous and unfamiliar flowers on the edge of the sea, and some of them are evidently Intended to be looked at* and not to be wet. Among these are mantles of silk In gay colors and Japanese de­ signs, and beach costumes of silk that one can hardly think were ever intend­ ed to withstand the boisterous waves or salt .water j but they ate charming to; look a t v ' . . These attractive beach clothes, how­ ever, have no monopoly of good, looks. The regular bathing and swim­ ming togs worn this season are alto­ gether the most, attractive that have been presented within the memory of the oldest fashion writer. Very suc­ cessful ;ones' are made of the new silk fiber fabrics In knitted weaves, and In the usual woolens, as well as In taf­ feta and other silks. The,silk fiber fabrics have a Sheen that- water falls to'dim and that adds a great deal to the effectiveness of the brilliant color combinations In which they are made. ,Thesuit shown In-the?picture Is a good .example of the silk fiber models and is practical for ordinary sea bath­ ing, although It Is not a swimming suit. Regular swimming suits have very short skirts and no unnecessary fullness. They dispense with sashes; in fact are brief as to skirts and light as to weight. This suit has bloomers and dress of light purple, with border of gold at the neck and arm’s eye'and around the bottom of. the skirt The skirt Is split up at the left side; re­ vealing purple bloomers and has short strips of gold-colored fabric, set In the split. The sash is in gold color also. The very ample cape Is of rubberized cloth, with slits for the arms where a short flounce simulates a sleeve. Gen­ erally these suits have hose and shoes or slippers to match. TheJ slippers are fastened With ribbons that Wind about the ankles In the fashion of sandals. Like the shoes, they are of cloth, a sort of sateen usually, and made to match the suit. ' • ■' Pongee a Favorite, Pongee Is one of the season’s favor­ ite fabrics for children, as well as grownups. It Is used for both dressetf »and wraps. .*> ' - , -v I am Sincere! Stop Calomel! I ie Listen to met Calomel sickens and you may j day’s work.

It is a physician's prescription. Swamp-Root is a strengthening medi­ cine. It helps the kidneys, liver and blad­ der do the work nature intended they should.do.’ Swamp-Root has stood the teat of years. It is sold by all druggists on its merit and it should help you. No other kidney medicine has so many friends.Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start treatment at once.
