When it developed, th at the Se­ cretary of State was buying ex pensive inortor cars for use in his aejiiirtnioiit, and that there was ather tice use of Stale owned cars fol private purposes, it was a dis­ tinct jolt tO many PeOPle- It was a surprise to find that a man of the ,mqnesiionedlstanding and integrity ot tlit Seeretay of State would sanc­ tion official extravagance;, th at’s Mist what it was- -extravagance; at the expense of the State But it is 3 Rreater jolt.to learnof outstanding extravagance ..in the Snte highway departm ent. Pro !,,,yy no official in the State in wanv years has had so largea share of public confidence as Mr. Page, the head uf the commission.' T hat confidence had its bases in the be­ lie! that Mr. Page is a man of ex­ ceptional besiness capacity. . H^j linnesty was taken for granted But personal honesty in a public official counts little if he hasn’t the capacitv to so administer his office as to get the most and the best work for the smallest expense. I 1 was believed that Chairm an Page hail that to the fullest degree, and ii iws belief that he \vas getting for the Slate a full dollar’s worth of work Ioi every dollar expended !hat spinet oued for him the highest salary ever paid a public official in !lie State. General opnioii was that he was worth the money; that he earned it. Kow it falls out that- Chairman Page bas permitted gross extrava­ gance in the private use of motor ears at public expense. The. re- the developments in the office of the Secretary of State, passed an act making it a misdemeanor for anybody to use a State owned car for any private puruose whatsoever. Now comes the auditor of the high­ way department $50,000 a year.. Let that sink in. Emplooes of the highway department have, in plain language, beeu takiug and using the State’s property as their own to extend (estim ated) of. $50,000 a year. Every m onth jpf the twelve employes of the highway commis­ sion used cars at a cost of $4,166.- W 2-3 to the taxpayers of the Slate—not in the perform ance of service to the State but (or their otvudevice for joy ridts, etc. There is 110 contention that it was under­ stood that anybody should use a car at State expense for private purposes in addition to his regular "age. No, sir. State highway em­ ployment simply reaches out and t“ok that much extra for tliem- sthes. It was there and they grabbed it off because they could, ^liairnian Page, we are told; had been “trying” to get his men "not lo Use State cars for social purpos- ts. ' but it seems they paid no at 'entiou to him. ... ^oiv let that-sink in. Chairman ^ge knew the use of State cars for social purposes" was. wrong, sre is no pretense: th at it was cWisidercd a part of the perquisites n[the job. He had beeu “ trying” 10 get the boys to lay off the joy •ides at the States expense. W bat 'lo you think of that "trying"? Here is a super-executive, draw ing S15,ooo a year and believed to be 'rOrtli it,- who permiteed his em ­ ployes to make use of State pro- IlerIy for private purposes at the rale °f $50,000 , a year. Good leSyans! If thaf '^eJe”'a ’ uian of other family What H enry age would say about that .would ta^e the hair off. ^tOw confidence is : gone—n o t, a Wesiion of Mr.' Page’s honesty, llt confidence’ in His £uper-ability. ere have beep outcroppings of cOiiiplaints of extravagance in State 11Slnvay management..,' Now aboyt ev«ybody who has believed there extravagauce, and those who NUM BER 39 Ii Tlieri didn't, will believe even the wildest rnniors of waste; and those who don't want to believe them will have their niouths closed. T heir line of defense is gone. If that $50,000 a year- waste—to call it hv a polite name-*—had been mane pub­ lic while the Legislature was in session, nothing could have stopped t{ie legislative boys so changing the membership of the commission tliat some present members would have gotten out in a hurry to avoid .be­ ing thrown out. They were amind to do that, anyhow, and ouly de sisted out of respect to Gov. Mc­ Lean ;au d some of us who thought they were wrong about it are .al­ most sorry now that they didn’t go on.—Statesville Daily. Tbe Building and Loan. "W ithin the- past several year," said a young man Saturday night, “ I have made in salary several thousau.d dollars. I have owned and operated a good grade automobile and jazzed around with the crowd, and today I have nothing to show for the m oneyl have earned, but have a very vivid recollection of some really good times. I am go­ ing to take out as many shares of building and loan as I can carry, aud am going to build a house on my lot. You see, if a man can pay from $50 to $60 per m outh on an automobile bought on the easy pay­ ment plan he cm build a house w ith just a little more added, and th at’s the course I ’ve decided on. Put me down for 30 shares tonight, I can carry that much I know, and perhaps I will increase by holdings within a, very. sb.ort.' tim e,’.’ Spoken.

The other day; the Democrats tried to pass this law for Davie county, re­ presented by Senator G rant, a Re­ publican, and the law .would' have passed over G iant's protest but for the fact that he offered an amend­ ment to the, bill that it. should ap­ ply to the whole state: G rant turn­ ed their owu guns oil them.

This, makes weakest man on the ticket run with the strongest and forces peo­ ple to vote for men who are un­ worthy M ark Squires got elected to the Senate because of that pro­ vision in the Iayv which he wrote aud had passed. Ahout three hundred Democrats in Caldwell and Alexander would have invali­ dated the whole ticket.” "Y ou Democrats give us a fait Australian ballot Inw1-Iike that in use in other States, and the R e­ publicans will support it, but don’t try to force a fraudulent m akeshift on Republican counties when you won’t stand for it in the S tate." , Aud our Republican friend left shaking his head at Democratic in­ consistencies — Hickory Record.

Call* Attention To Problems of Farmers. j W hal a great and gloriotis piece! Clarence Poe has. written in T lie: Progressive Farm er and our good editor has copied in The Statesville Daily! Every word sounds good and IS good! Love your farms. W e want to take our hats off to Colonel Poe and we want to ask Col. Poe to help get some of the taxes off the average farm, so that We lUiay have a few dollars left Io help to do some or all of the things he has' suggested for us to do. For I want to tell you, folks, it sim­ ply cannot be done the way things are going in this frenzied day and time! Can you get half on your farm now, does Col. Poe know? I mean bv actual experience what it means to farm?. Pay our- taxes, raise the boys aud girls we ought to raise, school them as tliev ought to be schooled, pay our bills. Who is going to help you do all that ouglii to be done ou the piece of creation that is so dear to us? If we could get help and do wbat other things just have to be done. But we cannot get help, if we could pay.. Does Col Pot know that everybody owns an automobile? No, No, I mean a Ford-A sk-some one. to help you a few clays on the farm, they sav. "N o, 110; I can’t helpi I got to go!” —Well, I don’t know where they go, but I do know they "G o” all right! About all our boys have left the farm. O ur' farms : re growing up and washing away. But Coi Poe says .hot to let them do that way, aud all jo in him in saying the same. 'Tffitt1'wiierfe Is iiie 'remedy?" I have been ou the farm for 50 years, but Listen, W orld:” Ia m not yet—I thought. I^w ould not say longer than 50 years, tor fear some one would think I was old!—and I can say that I caunot tell ydu how to do what Col,. Poe has so well sug­ gested ought to be done. W ith so high taxes as we now havfe on our worn-out gulleys, the average farm will not bring at public auction to­ day what it is assessed at for taxes. Ia m n o t a tax kicker, but what can be done to beautify our farms as Col. Poe suggested? Some one come across and tell us how to solve the problem, then come out in the sticks where I live aud Iw ill give you as good a dinner as'm y cook can cook tor you and she is not a colored cook either for I room with her. If any one can tell me and will couie to see me, tell me where you live and I will come to see you, and we will talk the m atter over, aud when I leave you I will be the PRO U D EST mau you have seen for some time.

We have an interesting article from E. H. Morris in regard to the coming municipal election which will appear in OU' next issue. Keep vour eyes open for 1 he political pot is beginning to boil. A fellow in New York m ake a bet that he could drink a pint of whiskey without stopping. He won the bet but the. am ount wasn't, enough to pay for the casket and funeral services which were held the next day. Fifty million dollars are going Io be sp.-ct in building roads in N orth Carolina within the next four years. So says Governor McLean. If all the county seats are going to be connected up this means that Davie will get at least four good roads— to Statesville, Salisbury, Lexing­ ton and Yadkinville The States ville and Salisbury roads are due to get attention first if the idea is t Vbuild roads that will.do the great­ est good to ti'e greatest number. Our Democrgtic friends in Davie county are reminded of the fact tba". the Cooleemee Journal, the official organ of the illustrious Democratic party in Davie county used much space in condemning and fighting the Sunday blue law for this couniv which some of the foreign senators and representatives tried to put over 011 Davie during the last legislature. W e are print ing this information so that history will be kept straight in the 1926 cam paign. Sheriff Cope is giving the tax payers fair warning that they only one more month in which to pay their. 1924 taxes. The sheriff says he has to settle with the county commissioners on the first Monday in May, and all persons who have not paid their taxes before this date will be dealt with according to law. A word to the wise should be Sufficient. Mr. Cope says the people elected him to collect the taxes and.he is going to do his duty regardless of consequences. Miss Julia Alexander, of Char­ lotte a member of the N orth Caro­ lina legislature, has announced that she will be a candidate ' for Governor in 1928. W ew ereunder the impression that the Democrats had promised ,M ax Gardner this pi utriv It m ight be that the Re­ publicans will nominate a man who can be elected to this office four years hence. Anothhr four years like unto the four that N orth Carolina has, just passed over would be eiib.ugh tb r* turn 'th e State -Hjto the Republican column. One of the city employes tells us that the reason only eight of the white way lights burn is that the town saves $20 per m onth b y 'cu t­ ting them off. W ell, we wonder if the taxes of the poor folks in town will be reduced any as a result of this great saving? If the town w asn't able to keep these lights burning they should not have just put them up, for they look very bad stick­ ing around in the dark. Maybe the new board that is to be elected in May will have them removed or lighted. We have heard, but do not vouch for the fact that Supt. George Pou1 of the State" penitentiary, has an aged uncle who 011 the state's pay­ roll. This uncle is a dentist and visits the state farm and extracts teeth for the convicts. It is said that this dentist received more than $7,000 for this service. We would like for Mr. R. R. Clark, of Statesville, to enlighten us on this matter, as lie is doitig a good deal of enlightening through the columns of the Greensboro Dailey News. It is m ighty ■ easy to spend public money. It is only a few.weeks until the municipal election. The waters are very calm up to the hour of go­ ing to press. W e suppose that the same Democratic gentlemen who are holding the offices now, will be re nominated and re-elected. The Democrats have a big m ajority in this city and it would be a waste of time for the Republicans to put out a local ticket. If the m ajority of the taxpayers are satisfied with the way the town is being run we have nothing whatever to say, we will strive at all times to do everything possible for the upbuilding of the town and community regardless of who is holding the offices and run­ ning the town. A b ettersp irit of co-operation is needed if the town means to m ake m u-h pro­ gress. W ith half a dozen factions pulling half a dozen ways at the same time but little constructive work can be accomplished We would welcome the day when en­ tire citizenship can get together and all work for a bigger and better town. !COOK WITH OIL Burns 400 Gallons of Air With Every Gallon of Oil. have Mocksville Debaters Win.

The announcement of the candi- of iiffi jlllii I the governorship leaves the Daily News uninterested. ■ It is not that the governorship is already allotted to another and that this is so be­ cause it is so. It is rather because the candidacy of Miss Alexander means nothing. She will hardly add to the present situation. She will not even confuse it. Miss A lexander does not repre­ sent the woman of the state. She does not represent, so far as the Daily News has been able to 'dis­ cern, i nything except that small portion ot reactionary spirit which has been practically active of late in M ecklenburg. She has no new ideas, no particular equipment, no experience, no hope. If her candidacy means anything at all, it merely means that spring is here.—Greensboro News. Death at Advance of Ral Carter. Ral Carter, aged 8t years, died at his home near Advance on Thursday, death following an ill­ ness extending over the past few days. H e *had spent practical­ ly his entiie life on his farm, locat­ ed between Advance and H all’s Ferry, and was held in high esteem by residents of the community. His wife preceded him ’in death several years ago. The funeral was con­ ducted at 3 o'clock Fridav after­ noon from Advance M ethodist church, and burial followed in the Shady Grove qemetery. » Quicker Cooking at Lowest Cost, That’s the real meaning of Kerogas Burner Stoves Selection of the right stove when buying an oil cook stove, is now easy!

COOLIDGE INVITES WORLD TO PHILLY EXPOSITION Washington.—President Coolidge issued a proclamation inviting the 48 states of the union and all for­ eign governments to participate in the international exposition to be held in Philadelphia June I to No­ vember 80, 1926. The proclamation was under au­ thority of a joint resolution of Congress. The exposition has been arranged as a celebration of the one hundred and fiftieth anni­ versary of the signing of the de­ claration of independence, and will show the progress of art, in­ dustry. science, trade and com­ merce as well as developement "of products of the air, soil, forest and seas. . P M I PRESIDENT COOL) DGE DIRECTS KELLOGG TO TAKE INITIAL STEPS. Washington.—President Coolidge’s plans with respect to calling a supple­ mental naval limitations conference is taking more definite shape. By his direction, Secretary Kellogg has init­ iated an intensive study o£ the minu­ tes of the original Washington confer­ ence to acquaint himself with what then transpired In regard to those ele­ ments ot naval armament for which no formula of limitation was found. The President feels that there is opportunity now for a conferecne to take up and complete the work of the 1921 meeting, which laid down the 5-5-3 rule as to capital ships and also found it possible to limit proportion­ ately aircraft carrier tonnage and to fix the maxibum size of auxiliary craft and naval guns. A decision as to extending an invi­ tation or even as to informally sound­ ing out of sentiment at foreign cap­ itals with regard to a further confer­ ence is unlikely, however, until the secretary has completed the prelimi­ nary survey ‘ just undertaken. Vhe study probably will require discussion with the secretaries of war and navy and with the naval and military ex­ perts of the government so the Presi­ dent may be made fully aware of the practical and technical aspects of the supplemental conference proposal. There has been no time for such con­ ference as yet, because the data for the original conference are so exten­ sive that Mr. Kellogg, with other du­ ties requiring most of his attention, cannot complete his examination for some time. There is no doubt that the aircraft question occupies a large place in ad­ ministration considerations of arm limitation matter. In view of the re­ cent controversies as to relative mili­ tary value of battleships and aircraft and also because of the pressure for heavily increased aircraft appropria­ tions, that subject already has been given much thought. There is a decided feeling in some quarters that failure of the original conference to reach an aircraft limita­ tion agreement does not foreclose an­ other effort to that end. ‘ Whether this view reflects to any extent recent official though^ on the question in London, Paris, Tokio and Rome is not known. In any event it now appears certain that no informal overtures to other governments to learn their views on the conference project will be under­ taken until the subject has been fully explored and a definite conclusion by the President made possible. The various foreign offices understand the tentative nature of steps thus far taken in Washington and there is little change of any misunderstanding on that score. man can climb out beyond the Heart Sufferer Runs Amuck. Cambridge, Mass.—Alfred Tirrell, a patient in’ the city hospital here, suf- ering with heart trouble, escaped from the hospital, ran through the neighbor­ hood In his night clothes and rang sev­ eral doorbells before collapsing in front of a fire alarm box which he had sounded. Firemen found him on the sidewalk and carried him into the hospital where he died two hours later. ME OF W H E Leaps From Window Into Cab. New York.—A man who escaped or fell from an upper, floor of a 20-story building opposite the Pennsylvania hotel, crashed through the top of a taxicab, landing in the rear seat. A passenger had just left the taxicab. Soth of the man’s legs were broken and he suffered a possible fracture of the skull and internal injuries. Rob Postoffice of $40,000. Chicago.—The Valparaiso, Ind, post- office was robbed of postage and rev- enue stamps valued,at $40,000 by safe blowers, the detective bureau here was notified Iby the Valparaiso police, chief. The robbers escaped without detection a n d were thought to have come to Chicago. U s. Envoy to Austria Quits. Vienna.—Albert. H- Wishbum Ms tendered his ' resignation as United States: minister to Austria, he made known. . VARIED LOOT VALUED AT $1,000,- 000 IS TAKEN IN NEW YORK CITY New York—Two men were arrested charged with being members of a band of robbers and bootleggers whose cache of stolen goods estimated to be worth as much as $1,000,000 was discovered in an old two story build­ ing on South, street. The suspgcts said they were Pat­ rick Mitchell, a laborer, and Max Frice, a salesman; both of New York. They are charged specifically with stealing from the warehouse of Pincus, Sachs & Co,, $30,000 worth of woolens which were found in the warehouse. They denied the charges. Police are also questioning two men who said they were employed as watchmen at the building and were ignorant of the fact that it housed, stolen goods. In their raid on the warehouse, the police found great stores of fabrics of all kinds, leather, dyes, canned goods, cigarettes, and cigars, between 75 and 100 barrels of alcohol and liqu­ or and in the basement two large stills which apparently had been in recent operation. They found a fleet of 22 trucks, some of which have been listed as re­ cently stolen. They found desks, telephones, filing cabinets, typewriters, correspondence and other indications that this was the headquarters of an extensive mail or­ der business conducted by a highly or­ ganized bandit and bootlegger band. They found secret doors and stair­ ways; with an ingenious buzzer signal alarm system; a trick safe concealed in a waH and a trap door operated by electricity; a store of six-shotters; al­ together a fantastic combination of a modern big business office and dime novel bandits’ lair. Shortly after police had broken into the place, a mail carrier delivered a bacth of letters, which were turned over to postal inspectors. It is hoped through these and the mass of corres­ pondence found to trace mail order purchasers and to get on the trail of the bandits themselves. Prairie Fires Rage in West. Valentine, Neb.—Three prairie fires were raging in the Rosebud Indian re­ servation while ranchers and Indians fought desperately to check the flames. Three villages had been turned in ruins by the blaze and one report re­ ceived here told of a woman and two small children being burned to death at Tuthil. Another fire, described as covering 100 square miles burned north of here. Valentine, a town of about 1,200 per­ sons, was not endangered. The coun­ try being swept by the fires is a vast rolling region settled separately aind spotted now and then with pine trees. The chief crop of the region is hay but at present, not much is on hand. Owing to this fact, it is believ­ ed the loss from' the fires will be small unless It gains such a momen­ tum as to destroy ranches. Two or three minor fires .wero extinguished at O’Neill, and near Gregory, S. D. Twins Baffle Cops. .Manila^—Traffic poiicemen are in a quandry as to how to deal with Sim- plicio and Lusio Godino, the Samar twins, who were joined together at birth. The twins have learned to djjve an automobile and have developed a great liking for speeding with the city. Traffic officers jesitate to ar­ rest the twins for exceeding the speed limit because the real offender cannot be arrested without taking the other twin into custody also. The twins, now about 25 years olds are wards of Teodore Yanco, Filipino capitalist and former resident com­ missioner at Washington. Convicts Shot .By Guard. Raleigh, N. C.—One white prisoner was killed and . two others severely wounded when guards fired in an effort to prevent an' escape from the Cale­ donia farm, according to a message received here by Superintendent Goe. Ross Pou, from the farm supervisor. The dead prisoner is John McNally, Wake county ,who was serving an eight year sentence for murder. William Bailey, Wayne county, serving eight years for bigimy, and Kendall E. Johnson, Wake county, five years for larceny, were both wounded, but are expected to recover. Wash Brown, Harnett county, serving 15 to 25 years for .murder, and Jimmie Green, Wake county, two years for larceny, succeed­ ed in making their escape. ; Groom’s Grandson Was His Best Man Fayetteville — A rather unusual marriage, - with; the groom’s grandson as his best: man, took place in a lo­ cal boarding house when Hector Mc­ Neill, 76, Hope Mills, married Etta E. Jacques, 55. The bride gave her residence as Fayetteville but seemed, to have no relatives and said that she was a Frenchwoman. The couple said they were going Jo. begin housekeeping at once and returned to Hope Mills with­ out the customary bridal tour, .v SIX'PERSONS LOST LIVES IN ILLINOIS TRAIN WRECK. Carlinsville, 111.—Six people were killed and at least three more were injured fatally as the result of a head-on collision between two Illi­ nois traction system cars south of here. The dead are: Babe Shannon, 13, of Virden; George Goldberg, St. Louis; Henry Robinson, 16, Carlin- ville; . student; William Peele, Staunton, motorman, unidentified man; Mrs. Marie Marienecke, Gil­ lespie. The wrcek occurred when the regular local train from Spring­ field to St.' Louis crashed into a line car standing on an embank­ ment leading away from a trestle. Greater loss of life was averted railroad men said, by the fact that the two cars telescoped each other without turning over and falling over the embankment. PROPERTY LOSS 118,000,000 FIRST CHECK SHOWS ILLINOIS DAMAGE ABOUT $12,000,000. Chicago,—Warm, sunny weather pre­ vailed over the area in southern Illi­ nois and Indiana devastated’ by tor­ nadoes last Wednesday, and relief work progressed rapidly along with the burial of the dead and the hous­ ing of the homeless. Rebuilding tools glinted in the sunshine, while doctors and nurses worked hard to save the IiveB of the injured. Rechecking of the casualty list with additional deaths from wounds raised the total dead in some places and re- ruced the figures in others, leaving the toll at 810, without including a score supposed to have been burned to death in Murphysboro, where 150 blocks were blown down and the de­ bris partly burned. Red Cross workers also announced that the 2,939 listed as hurt probably did not include hundreds of persons who had been injured, but who had failed to report the fact owing to the excitement and necessity ot aiding others more severely' injured. The total property loss has not been compiled, but likely will be more than $12,000,000 in Illinois alone. With sotne $3,000,000 in Indiana and about a million each in Missouri, Tennessee and Kentucky, the property loss is likely to exceed $18,000,000. This fig­ ure is more serious than its mere size indicates, for most of the loss was sus­ tained by families of moderate circum­ stances and meant the wiping out of all tangible' possessions. Relief work not only proceeded with celerity in the affected zones, but col­ lection of funds to aid the sufferers went on at an amazing pace. Thousands of dollars rolled in to swell the funds raised by many news­ papers, radio stations and fraternal orders and churches. With the arrival ot more nurses In the storm area, it was learned that many persons were probably fatally hurt. Several died of wounds. Dan­ ger of epidemics has, been probably avoided, doctors, said, by prompt use of antitentanus serum, sent by airplane, chlorination of water supplies and other measures. ‘ Many of the injured have been taken during the last 48 hours to larger cities, where they could receive better treatment. A few died on the way to hospitals, however, but it is reported that most of the others have fair chan­ ces of recovering. Cooiidge Holds Up Militia Pay. Washington.—Appropriations of $3,- 004,000 for the national guard in ex­ cess of the amounts recommended to Congress were ordered held up by President Coolidge pending an inquiry to determine the necessity for the ex- penditure. Of the total, $1,332,000 is available to pay national guard members for armory drill work between now and June 30, the close of this fiscal year, and the remainder was appropriated for use in the Sext fiscal year. Although the President signed the appropriation bill carrying the funds, a statement issued at the white house declared he had not made known what action he intends to take with regard to these additional funds and “is con­ sidering tiie matter in the light of his financial program and the bearing which this additional expenditure will have upon his efforts to make possible further'reduction in taxes.” Pointing out that the increases were urged before the Benate and house committees by a representative of the- national guard, the statement questions the legality of such action under the budget and accounting act. France In Grip Of Spring Blizzard Paris—Spring In Paris has set ia. with more than its usual severity. Snow fell in most parts of the coun­ try on the first day of the season and also on the second, which was colder than Saturday and in fact colder than most of the days of the Winter. Western France, which has been shared most of the bad weathe this year came in for its turn of snowfall, notably in the region of St. Malo, whence comes some of the earliest Spring cegetahles. SHEET BY FOREIGN RELATIONS EXPERT SEES RUSSIA AND FRANCE AS STU M BLi Nq. BLOCKS Washington— Senator Borah, ot the senate foreign relations commit­ tee, declared after a conference with President Coolidgie that he favored calling a second arms limitation conference but doubted it it woufd' be successful. He said he thought it a good plan to move toward disarmament, al­ though in his opinion disarmament could not be obtained except by or­ ganized public opinion, which be did’ not believe now existed in Europe. Russia holds the key to world dis­ armament, he asserted, and Russia could not be expected to enter into an arms limitation agreement with­ out diplomatic recogniaion by this country. France also constitutes a stumbling block to satisfy disarma­ ment he declared and will continue to do so as long as she insists on her “security.” He said he would support President Coolidge in his efforts to get the for­ eign powers interested in the confer­ ence, which as contemplated would take place some time in the fall and would be limited to consideration ot naval armaments. » It is a fine thing, he added, to keep the subject of disarmament alive and there is a chance that a conference might accomplish some results. The same nations that participated in the last conference are expected to be in­ vited to be represented. Fsderal Judges Purchase Robes. Washington.—Federal judges must buy their own robes until Congress makes specific appropriation for that purpose, under a ruling by Comptrol­ ler General McCarl. The ruling was made at the request of the attorney general. “The judges,” the comptroller de­ clared, “have themselves apparently recognized the robes as an article Qf personal apparel In connection with the custom ot wearing them and this now having been long established, there is no proper basis to furnish them at the expnse of the United States under and appropriation for general expenses, but specific appro­ priation therefor would be necessary.” Foundling is Heir to Millions. New York.—Warner M. Leeds, vice president of the Leeds Tinplate in­ terests until ill health forced his re­ tirement from business In 1904, died of tuberculosis at his home here. He was 57 years old and had been ill for 20 years. A 12-year-oid daughter, Joy Ijouis Leeds, adopted from the foundlings’ ward at Bellevue hospital, will inherit most of Mr. Leeds’ fortune, estimated In the millions. She also inherited the income from* a $2,000,000 trust fund, plus $250,000 and a .fortune in jewelry from !Mrs. Leeds, who In Feb­ ruary, 1922, leaped to death from a window- of the home where Mr. Leeds died. I “Los Angeles” to Call at Bermuda. Washington.—The airship Los Ange­ les will make a trip to Porto Rico or Cuba after a second flight to Bermuda now planned for April 12 or 13. Plans announced at the Navy De­ partment call for the dirigible on the second flight to Bennuda to moor at the mast ot the tender Patoka, a feat which she was unable to accomplish on a trip there last month. Five Are Killed In Train Wreck Parish-Five persons are known to have been killed and 50 others injur­ ed when the Bordeaux-Paris express was wrecked near here. The dead include Dr. Adolphe Pedebidou, Sen­ ator from the Upper Pyrenes. Seven coaches jumped the track and three ot them were tumbled in­ to the river. Some of the rescued passengers said they had to break their way out of the half-submerged cars. Many of them were helped from the wreck by a detachment of Moroccan soldiers on board the train. Car Loadings Decrease. Washington. — Although . railroads loaded 5,860 fewer cars with revenue freight in the week ending March 14 than during the week precedingr the total loadings—924,149—were on in­ crease over corresponding weeks in all previous years. The decline from'the March'7 figures was attributed by the American Railway association to a fall­ ing off in the loadings of coal, gyain and grain prodncts. Anti-Suffragistsr Attacked. Tokio.—Crowds attacked the resi­ dences of certain peers who were prominent in opposition to the univer­ sal suffrage measuring during the. ses­ sions of the upper house. Only slight damage was done but the attacks have caused serious complications in the situation of the upper house, which refuses to continue discussion of the suffrage measure until the honor, of the house has been satisfied by iiis home minister., " , to get perfect walls with Alabastine.

He is also instructed to look after Jim Rathway, reputed head of the 0Pree Traders,” illicit liquor runners. At Little Falls he finds Pelly is credited with having found a gold mine, and is missing. At the hotel appears a girl, obviously out of place In the rough surroundings. A half- breed, Pierre, and a companion, •‘Shorty/* annoy the girl. An­derson interferes in her' behalf. The girl sets out for Slston Lake, which is also Anderson's objec­tive. He overtakes her and the two men with whom he had trou­ ble the night before. She is sus­ picious of him and the two men are hostile. Pierre and Shorty ride on, Anderson and the girl following. In the hills the road Is blown up, before and behind the two. Anderson, with his horse, is hurled down the moun­tain side, senseless. Recovering consciousness, Anderson finds the girl has disappeared, but he concludes she is alive and prob­ably In the power of Pierre and Shorty. On foot he makes his way to Slston Lake. Tliere he finds his companion of the day before, and Rathway. w ith a girl, Estelle, a form er sw eetheart of Anderson’s, who had abused his confidence and alm ost wrecked his life. Rathway strikes Estelle, and after a fight Anderson, w ith Estelle’s help, escapes with the girl. Anderson’s companion’s mind is clouded and she is suf­ fering with a dislocated knee. Anderson sets the knee and makes the girl as comfortable as possible. He has a broken rib. The two plan to make their way to a Moravian mission, of which Father McGrath has charge. Their acquaintance ripens into love. CHAPTER IX—Continued Lee did not push his inquiries. On the whole he felt it would be prefer­ able that her memory should return to her while she was at the mission. The next morning broke cloudy, the snow was frozen hard, and banks of heavy snow clouds were piling up In the north. The girl’s knee had still not troubled her, and they made even faster progress. Early in the after­ noon the: prospects of a storm became so threatening that Lee proposed they should encamp on a ridge of land some half a mile in front of them. “We can find a safe nook in there,” he suggested. “Oh, no,” answered the girl, “there’s a large log house about half a mile bpyond that, and we'll be much more comfortable there." As Lee looked at her, lie realized that she had' been speaking without realizing what she had been saying. Suddenly she realized It too. “Now what made, me say that?” she asked. “But I’m sure -somehow that there Is a cabin there. I ■ know this place quite well, only it’s as if I’d seen it in .a dream. Oh,-Lee, what if I should remember? I don’t want to— never, never! I want our new life and our love!” He put bis arm about her and tried to. comfort-her, but.the look of sad­ ness lingered on her face, and every now and then, covertly watching her, Lee would see that, same perplexed knitting of her brows. They passed the ridge, the trail ran around, the bend of the lake—and sud­ denly they‘saw the log building in front of them. Lee looked at the bouse in surprise, for It was built In the most substan­ tial way, and contained apparently five or six, rooms, The settler who bad constructed It must have meant to make it his permanent home, for the ground around it .had been cleared for all acre or more; but it seemed to have. been uncared for for several years, for the Iahd was overgrown with brambles and spindly birch, into the thick of which serried cohorts of young spruce trees were advancing in ranks, like the vanguard of am army. The door was unbolted, and when they went In they were startled at the aspect of the interior. The rooms were filled with furniture,, nearly all of it made by the settler, but extraordinar­ ily well done. There were mildewed and faded but substantial carpets on the floors. There were fungous growths on the walls; but In spite of all the evidences of decay, the interior looked • the habitation of a prosperous settler.' They went, from room to room. The contents'of the kitchen., had been scrupulously respected, In accordance with trappers’^ law. There were por- celaln.plates, cups and saucers, cook­ ing utensils, -a large sheet-iron stove half full of charred logs, v ., , Lee went all over the place, calling to the . girl with the enthusiasm of a boy. ■ “It’s just the .place for us!” be «tied. “Weil, find out who-owns It and buy it from him, and spend our honey­ moon here.” In his exuberance^ he failed to per­ ceive the depression- that had settled upon her. They had only just arrived in time to escape the storm, for already the flakes were whirling down outside". “Well, you were right,” said Lee. “It’s lucky we’re going to have a roof over us tonight. Look, here’s fire­ wood piled I Now I wonder who’s been living here I” Tiie girl did not answer him. She was staring about her with the same look of bewilderment, and Lee saw that she was trembling. He drew her into his arms. “Dearest, you musn’t let things trouble yoti,” he said. "AU will come right. And what can anything matter, so long as we have each other?” “It makes me afraid, Lee,” she an­ swered in a low tone. "Oh, Lee, I—I seem to be nearer to remembering than ever before. There ought to be—there used to be a table here, and—a woman sat here sewing, a" woman with fair hair, and her face bent over her work, and looking up sometimes to smile at a man—a tall man, several years older than herself, with iron-gray hair, who never smiled, but was always kind to her. And then she would look down to smile at a child playing beside her. Was I that child. Lee?” “If you were, if this was your home, dearest, you should be happy here.” “I don’t know, Lee. I wish now that we’d camped on the ridge. I wish I’d, never come here. I’ve the feeling that —that it means the end.” She began to cry softly. “It’s not—not just the fear of remembering this place, but it’s what is associated with Ui- some­ thing terrible—” She ceased, and looked out at the fast falling snow. It was still only the middle of the afternoon, but the wind was rising, whistling about the cabin, and everything was a deso­ late gray. Inside the log house It was half dark. Suddenly the girl uttered a cry and clutched at Lee’s arm. "Lee! Did you see that? That shadow?” She was half hysterical, and her nervousness . communicated itself to Lee, for he had had the confused im­ pression that a shadow had glided across the room beyond, through the open door. Instantly he darted after it, but I I They Passed the Ridge, the Trail Ran Around the Bend of the Lake—and Suddenly They Saw the Log Build­ ing in Front of Them.' there was nothing to be seen. He came hack. "It wasn’t anything. We’re getting nervous.” ‘Tm sure there was—was something, Lee.” She clung to him. “Stay here, and I’ll search the place.” "No, don’t ledve me! Let me go with you!” They went together, looking into all the rooms and about the house, but there was no sign of anyone. Lee went to the back door to look for foot prints, but if any had been made, they would have been obliterated In. a mo­ ment by the winid that was driving the dry snow about the doorslll In' little whirling clouds.“It was imagination,” said Lee. . She assented, and, going into the kitchen, began to make the prepara­ tions for their meal, while Lee took tbe .kettle down to. the’ stream ,- and fillhd it with water. But' when he returned she bad ceased to work and was sitting on a chair, her head bent down, her hands clasped on her knees, staring deso­ lately in front of her. Lee stood beside her. “Dearest, if I could do anything to help you—” “you can’t help me. I—I don’t know what to do.” Her voice was strained, hard, al­ most unrecognizable. Lee knelt at her feet conscious of a sense of utter help lessness. He took her hands In his, and found that they were as cold as ice, Her body was strained into un­ natural rigidity. It WflS IlllllOSt AS if she were a prisoner on some torture table, so set were all her muscles, AS though she were bracing herself against some unendurable pain. “Yes, you can help me!” The words came quickly from her lips, and, raising her head, she gave him a strange, penetrating look. “You —you haven’t been frank with me, Lee. “You know ail that there is to know about roe. But what do I know about you? You say you love me, you won my love—my love, that of the name­ less woman; and you have my poor Iit1He two weeks’ life story in your possession. You know everything that there is of me—oh, you know it so inti mately. Can you not see how it'hu­ miliates me, to think that I have no personality of my own at all, nothing to myself, no life, hardly a thought, even, that is not yours?” “Dearest—” But she went on implacably: “What do I know of you ? Who are you ? Lee Anderson? That’s only a name. You have your life, your past. How many women has it contained, women you perhaps think of regretfully, some­ times even with tenderness—?” “I’d have told you that when the time came. I loved one woman—I thought I did. She was—well, I gave her niy lore foolishly, that’s all. And it wasn't love. There is only you, has only been you—” “How do I know you are telling me the truth. Lee Anderson?” “You don’t mean that. dear. We’ve given our love to each other, with trust and faith. It’s just the loneliness and the dread and the fear of remember­ ing the past that makes you doubt everything. Look into my eyes and see if you can doubt them.’’ The hardness of her laugh surprised him. "I don’t trust men. Lee Ander­ son.” Lee felt stupefied. But deeper than the hurt was his pity for her, a soul cut off from the past, with only him­ self to guide her. He could under­ stand that the desire for a personality of her own might well inspire her bitterness. “I think the best way I can prove my love for you,” he answered, “is just to say nothing till your mood has passed.” “No, Lee,’there is a better way than that, a much better way. Be frank with me. Let me share your life. Who are you? Lee Anderson? That’s only a name to me. Tell me why you came into the range, and bow you found me.” He began to tell her; but, because it was impossible to speak of their experiences at Siston lake, he made it appear that he had saved her—as he had said before—after the fall, and carried her into the woods, He omitted much, but he distorted nothing. “What were you doing in the range? What are you here for?” Her voice was breathless, her eyes seemed to burn into his face. ' “I—think—I—know. Yon must tell me the truth. You came here to find someone. You are a member of the police. Whom have you come to find ?1 And as Lee remained silent, she continued: It vvasoh a man named Pelly, was it? An old man, an old friendless man, who had been betrayed, sold by some­ one he trusted? A man who had done no wrong to anyone, but who, a whole generation before, had killed the scoun­ drel who tried to ruin his wife? Hadn’t he atoned for that by a lifetime of exile?” What do you know of him?” cried Lee. He is my father I This is our home I Yes, I’m Joyce Pelly, his daughter, as you have always suspected. And I suspected you from the beginning. And you—you forced your presence upon me. under the guise of protecting me from my friends.” “That is not so!” . “To gain your wretched ends by win­ ning a woman’s confidence and then betraying her. And you dared—yes, you dared—” “I never dreamed -who you were. Won’t you believe my word of honor that I am incapable-*?” But she went on, still implacable: You dared to pretend you loved me, you traitor, In order to discover my father’s hiding place when. I—I was coming up to him—but why—tvby? I can’t remember all. I only know that I remember Pm his daughter. And I tell you I hate you with a hate ten times as great as the love I thought I felt for you!” Lee stood up before her. “I only ask you to believe me,” he began, ‘when I say that I didn’t know, guess, dream wlio you were. How should Ii have known he had a Aaughteri- this' man I’d never seen? I knew noth­ ing—” But suddenly her Icy coldness seemed to dissolve in helpless misery. “Oh, leave me I Leave me.for a little while, or I shall go mad I” she cried. And she put her hands over her face and began weeping wildly. CHAPTER X Tbe Tunnel Under the Rock • Lee stumbled out. of the . cabin, dazed,-Tsfnpefied:' by Joyce's revelation. The man be sought stood, an Invln- Ible barrier, between himself and the woman he loved. Never, If he had any power to read the human heart, could Joyce Pelly look on him again with anything but hate and horror. Beneath her gentle nature there lay, he knew,. a soul of steel, calm and re­ solved. He could how look ppon her only as a relentless enemy as long as her father lived. His little spell of happiness was ended forever. And he groaned as he strode through the blasts, and beat his fists into the whirling snow. Then to the man there came temp­ tation fiercer than any he had known as he perceived the one way out, the only way. It was only necessary to find Pelly, to warn him out of the district for­ ever, to return to Manistree, making a report that Pelly was dead, in order to win Joyce,. taking hqy away with him, earning her gratitude, her love— But would she love him then? Could, their happiness be based on that dishonor? Perhaps he could win her. And then? Resign from the police, of course, and bear the burden of the "To Gain Your Wretched Ends by Win­ ning a Woman’s Confidence and Then Betraying Her, and You Dared —Yes, You Dared—’’ shame for the rest of his days, read­ ing it in Joyce’s eyes, their children reading it in their parents’ eyes. No, even that was not possible. There was no escape for him. And he thanked God that he did not have to weigh those possibilities, though he would never have yielded. For stronger even than conscience was the thought of the force he was so proud to serve. Those dauntless guardians of the law had endured the icy blasts of the treeless tundras, they had looked un­ flinchingly into the face of death, death by violence, by cold, by hunger, and on the battlefield; it was all part cf the game whether one faced a moral enemy or a physical one. Even in thought there could be no tempering with dishonor. And it was only for a moment that Lee weighed these possibilities as be strode through the - storm. Then he squared his shoulders resolutely and threw off the burden. He would take Joyce to the Moravian mission as he had planned, there hand her over to the priest, and—leave her to go to his task, the apprehension of her father. The storm was growing fiercer. Lee, awakening to the realization, of externals as tbe icy flakes whipped his face, discovered that he had left the clearing far behind him; he could no longer discern the cabin in the dis­ tance through the whirling snow. He bad been traveling across the ridges of the broken ground, apparently making unconsciously for the shelter of the friendly forest behind It, with the instinct of a wounded beast to take cover. Well, he must go back, and they two must face that night together, and the next day. There was no help for it. As he strode on. suddenly instinct pulled him up sharply. He bad been trampling through a mass of withered undergrowth and bramble; and now, directly In front of him, he perceived a great gorge, so concealed In this growth that he had all but stepped over "the edge. He advanced cautiously. and peered down Into it. It was an extraordinary formation. He had seen such before,' In that and other regions, where the limestone,-.pushed up through molten granite by volcanic action at some pre-, historic time, and then abraded by rain or torrent, left strange hollows and gullies. But he had neVer seen one. on such a scale as this. He was looking Into a natural fis­ sure In the ground, a long, Irregular, winding chasm, extending indefinitely into the distance, but so narrow as to be merely a Up or crack In the rugged surface of the ground. It had not been worn by rains or water; it was too deep for that Prob­ably the limestone, thrust, up originally from the earth’s inner core, "had been sucked down aigaln in some final con­ vulsion, while the granite was StUl half molten, leaving the granife shell about the chasm. And In spite of Its depth the chasm was so narrow that It almost looked ss lf a man could have leaped across This, was undoubtedly Incorrect, the distance. between cliff and* cliff being only apiparently * reduced by the , dense underbrush that fringed the orifice: but the distance between the walls, which Inclined inward toward the sum­ mit was less than half that of the base. It was jUst such a chasm as a man might step into In a storm, to certain death. On the floor ot this gorge Lee could see a few scrub birches standing primly erect, seeming to be hardly larger than tree seedlings In a horti­ cultural nursery. The fissure extended diagonally of the cabin. Lee began to retrace Ms steps, following it along its edge, until he came to a place where it termi­ nated suddenly In a pile of gl’fifit FOCllS of granttfe outcrop. Two of these rocks stood up, one on each Side1Of the end of the chasm, like monoliths, although it "was clear that they had not been fashioned by human hands. Between them was a third, like a monolith that had been flung down. Besting on this was an enormous rock and Lee, who had been walking Into the face of the wind, stopped and leaned against this stone for a few moments, in order to catch his breath. To his astonishment the massive boulder’seeroed about to topple back­ ward under his weight. He felt him­ self slipping. He turned ’round, clutched at the stone, and saw it heav­ ing under his gaze like a ship at sea. And then he realized what had hap­ pened. The stone was not collapsing, but the pressure of his body had set it In motion. It came slowly to a standstill. Lee pressed bis hand against the boulder, and immediately it w.as.In movement again. , It was a rocking stone, and probably one of the largest In the world. The ieast touch started it, so deli­ cately was it poised, but a’ team of horses could not have shifted it from its position. As the huge, overhanging side tilted, at Lee’s touch, he saw a narrow open­ ing underneath it. His first tliougpt was that it was that of some burrow­ ing animal. Then he perceived that the sharp edges of the hole had un­ doubtedly been made by a spade. Human hands had made it. Lee stared at it until the stone, returning, hid the opening from view. He swung the boulder again, and, as It tilted, revealing the hole once more, he flattened himself, face downward, upon the ground underneath. The stone, in its return, just grazed hjg shoulders. Lee came to the conclusion thaf the hole extended downward beneath the base of -the great stone, and, lying flat on his face, he pushed it up with his shoulders. The light that came.In as it rocked backward showed him a foothold in tbe granite beneath the strip of mould that covered it—a rock ledge, with gaping blackness below. Then the stone came back into posi­ tion again, and nothing was visible. Clinging In the darkness to the edges of the hole, Lee extended a foot downward. The toe of his boot struck a ledge of rock. Crawling down, Lee lowered himself until he felt a second foothold beneath. Below that was a third. He found himself descending a lad­ der of rock. And very carefully he began work­ ing his way downward. The granite wall was polished as smooth as glass, each foothold was precariously slip­ pery, and he clung like a bat with bands and knees as he^descended. But In a few minutes a dim light began to filter upward from below. Lee’s head scraped against rock. The light grew stronger. Flakes of snow whirled In. Then he emerged into daylight, to find himself clinging to the interior lining of the great chasm, (Ike a fly on a wall, three-fourths of the. way down. The snow was whirling about him, but the wind had ceased, cut off by the precipitous walls’of the chasm. Then Lee understood. He had .found an entrance, probably the only one, into the gorge; but someone had pre­ ceded him, patiently assisting nature in the creation and enlargement of the steps of that rocky ladder, which had been eroded, during the course, of millenniums, by the action of a now dried-up waterfall. Only water could have hollowed out that course by the play of the leaping torrent on the projections of the granite. Looking down from where he clung, Lee saw that a thin stream trickled over a sandy bed In the middle, of the gorge below, issuing from one end, where it burst out of the granite, carrying with it this debris of the al­ luvial land above—-mud, gravel, and sand. And suddenly the Idea occurred to him that in all probability he' had., stumbled upon old Pelly’s gold mine. In which event, what more natural than that Pelly was hiding In. that in­ accessible spot, where he would be ab­ solutely secure against discovery—un­ less he had Incautiously permitted some one to share bis secret? And perhaps Joyce knew,,and had come up In order to be with him and to procure food supplies for him. Lee gnashed his teeth at the thought of It. Fortune had played In to his hands. The course of true love never did run 'smooth. Is the break past mending?

A FEW LEFTOVERS Leftover fish seems to be a hard problem for most housewives to use wisely. Baked Chowder.—In a buttered bak­ ing dish put a layer of sliced raw potatoes' cut very thin, sprinkle with sliced onion. and stewed tomato, then a layer of boiled fish; season each layer with salt and pep­ per and cooked bacon crushed and sprinkled over the fish, adding a little bacon fat Moisten with water, dredge the top with flour and bake covered until the potatoes are soft, then uncover and brown. Use three potatoes, two onions, a cupful of to­ matoes and one and one-half cupfuls of boiled fish, with one cupful of water and three slices of bacon and the bacon fat. Spiced Fish With White Sauce.— Season highly any leftover boiled fish with tomato catsup, anchovy, Worces­ tershire and a little paprika. Prepare enough rich white sauce to pour over the fish, add two well-beaten egg yolks to each cupful of white sauce. Flake the fish, pouf the sauce over it and beat in the oven. Fish Cocktail.—Take a small piece of cold boiled halibut, remove the skin and bones and flake it. Season with salt and pepper. Make a cocktail sauce by mixing together for each glass one teaspoonful each of tarragon vine­ gar, tomato catsup, lemon juice, one- half teaspoonful of horseradish, and a drop of tabasco sauce. Kedjeree.—Cook two eggs until hard. Remove all bones and skin from a cupful of leftover fish and chop It with the eggs. Take one cupful of cooked rice quit* moist, add to the fish and eggs, reheat, season with salt and pepper and serve very hot. Smoked haddock or whitefish is good for this dish. Codfish Scallop With’Rice and Eggs. —Mis two tablespoonfuls of cream or melted butter with one and one-half cupfuls of boiled rice, arrange in layers with one and one-half cupfuls of creamed codfisb, finish with rice. On top break four eggs, sprinkle with salt and dot with butter. Bake In the oven until the eggs are set. Good Foods. Everybody likes a good potato salad, but why will good cooks sometimes serve cold pota­ toes unpalatable and unseasoned and call the dish salad? As the po­ tato cut into cubes, small ones too, takes some time to absorb the flavor of dressing and other vegetables added to it, it is reasonable to let them stand some time In a mari­ nade (thin French dressing) just enough to lightly moisten the potato. With onion, cucumber, a few shredded almonds, and finally a good highly seasoned dressing, the salad will be palatable. Oak Hill Potato Salad.:—Cut cold boiled potatoes into small cubes; to two cupfuls add one-half cupful of Bneiy cut celery and a medium-sized Eippie cut Into dice. Mis with a good French dressing- and let stand until ready to serve, then add enough thiofc mayonnaise or boiled dressr ^ to coat each bit of the salad and serve. Potato Salad.—Cook potatoes In their jackets, to have a good flavored potato. Peel and cut into dice ,twelve medium-sized potatoes. Cut one cu­ cumber into dice after peeling, and shred the heart of a bunch of celery which has been crisped in cold water. Cut three . bard-cooked eggs into tSghths, ’ then Into slices. 1 Mls ail to­ gether with a good cooked salad dress­ ing and let stand two or three liours to season. Serve on lettuce garnished with a spoonful of tlie dressing.' If wished especially crisp add the cucum­ ber or another one cut Into cubes at the . time of serving with a few shredded almonds. • Baked Rhubarb.—Wash stalks of rhubarb, wipe and cut Into inch pieces without removing the skin. Arrange In layers with sugar sprinkled on each, ln'a'baking dish, and bake until the rhubarb is tender. Add one or two tablespoonfuls of water at first, cover and bake for a few minutes, then re­ move the cover. Strawberry and Pistachio Surprise. —Soak one-fourth of a package of gel­ atin In one-fourth of a cupful of cold water. Add one cupful of milk scalded with three ounces of.pistachio nuts and one-half cupful of sngar. Stlr until the gelatin is dissolved, add enough green coloring to make a deli­ cate green. Set the pan In Ice water. whten the mixture begins to congeal, add a pint of whipped cream. Deco­ rate the mold with choice strawber­ ries cut into halves and blanced and chopped pistachio nuts. Mold and let stand to become firm.Lettuce, or some form of green food should be served daily in every fam- Ily A child who does not like a Iet- tuc6 salad may eat « sa“a" lch ^ a leaf of lettuce which has Deea dipped into French dressing.

Judging from the way embroidery and deft stitchery are lavished on many of the newer models, designers have come to the conclusion that to spare the needle spoils the hat. At any rate, It is the consensus of opinion among millinery stylists that the -minus-trimming hats have run their course of popularity, and from now on our chapeaus are to be of the dressier type.

In regard to style, there is one rule supreme to keep in mind—everything must match. Even our hats, shoes and accessories are being developed in accordance with the ensemble theme. . The smartest ensemble costumes are featured with fur, buttons and flare. It is these very style elements which contribute so definitely to the chic and charm of the ensemble model in the picture. The coat dares to flare de­ cidedly and this at once definitely be­ speaks the "very latest.” The deep band of beige fox fur expresses the dernier cri for spring wraps. Tiny models. Crowns of cunning cloches— and by the way the cloche is still a leading number—are simply smothered In a carpet of spring posies,- a sight as refreshing as greets the eye In nature’s own flower garden. Perhaps the most interesting innovation is the top-crown placement of flowers. Small hats with novelty crowns seem to have coaxed flowers of every description to climb to the tip-top crest of the crown, and there pose in perky pompons, or motifs arranged by deft fingers. If not flowers then handwork en­ riches the new millinery.

A ration in which the dry mash contained 20. per cent peameal and unlimited sour skim milk gave higher percentage egg production, more eggs per pullet, cheaper eggs and greater profits over feed cost than any of the other rations in the experiment. This ration made the hens lay a large number of large eggs. Peas are available or may be grown In nearly every part of Idaho. The expense of grinding them into pea­ meal and placing them in the dry mash is small. During the present year, the pen In the feeding experiment getting pea­ meal and sour skim milk gave an av­ erage egg production of 49.6 per cent. Eggs were produced the' year around at a feed cost of 1,4 cents. The pul­ lets averaged 181.2 eggs each, con­ sumed 39 pounds of grain, 21.8 pounds of dry mash and 148.2 pounds of sour skim milk each and made a profit over feed cost of $2.33 each. Forty-four per cent of the eggs laid by this pen weighed 24 to 23 ounces to the dozen, 30 per cent from 22 to 24 ounces, and only 17 per ^ent below 22 ounces. When the results of this pen are com­ pared to those of one not getting the peameal or sour skim milk, they show that the peameal and sour sltim milk pen laid over three times the total number of eggs, over seven times as many marketable eggs, or eggs over 22 minces per dozen, gave $1.67 great­ er profit over feed cost per pullet and produced eggs at 7.5 cents cheaper feed cost per dozen. Undersized Pullet Will ^ Make Poorest Egg Layer “Experience is the keynote In profit­ able egg production.” declares J. G. HaIpln of the University of Wisconsin poultry department. As .In many other things. It Is easy to say It should be done, but quite a different matter when it comes to doing it. It is just like feeding cat­ tle—two men may divide a herd equal­ ly, and both feed the same kind of feed; yet one will lose, while the other will make a profit. "Immature and undersized pullets are the cause of low egg production in many flocks," continues Halpln. “Some people try to make themselves believe that they have a flock of good-sized pullets by weighing the largest ones. A pullet which is under-size or imma­ ture will not lay enough to be profit­ able. What one man considers a small [iullet, may be considered large enough by another man. But there are stand­ ards of weight which are about right for egg production.” The time which the chicks should be hatched depends upon the man who is doing the feeding. Chicks under one man’s care may mature much earlier than under the care of another. Pullets should be matured at a time when they will come into laying in the early win­ ter months when egg prices are high­ est, advises the poultryman. Cure Egg-Eating Hens To stop hens from eating eggs pro­ vide plenty of oyster shell and feed the scratch grain In the litter, so the hens will be kept busy as mucli of the time as possible, Feed a balanced ra­ tion containing plenty of meat food— 20 per cent—and darken the nests so the hens will not be so likely to see the eggs. Poultry Notes Ducks are usually mated In flocks of about thirty females -with five or six males. *' • * ’ Animal protein In the form of meat scrap, tankage, fish scrap, dried butter­ milk, or semirsolid buttermilk is very essential to heavy egg production.. ■ *' * * '■ Guineas will remain closer to the farm buildings if only one male bird is kept for e^ry three or four fe­ males. * • * * Certain diseases of turkeys ore ob­ tained from chickens and vice versa. Tlie 1'est way to hatch them is onder the turkey hens. Be sure the hen is thoroughly de- Ioused before setting, and also the first and second week after setting. Do not put any lice powder on her just be­ fore the chicks hatch, hoivever. - * * ' * Sickness must be expected In flocks where the houses are' kept In an un­ sanitary condition, More than one man has been driven out of the poultry business by tolerating filth.' ' ♦ * . * > .Early hatched chicks will make more rapid growth than late batched ones.

An off-hand estimate finds the cost of legislative employes -. at the recent session—clerks, laborers, pages, etc:—around #55,000 ; The official-returns will not vary much from that figure, it is believed. The reduction from the high water, mark of two years ago—near $65, 000—does not show a great econo­ mic iirge. Only a persistent de terminationjo deny the bonus’ at the end of the session, and a dis­ position on the part of a few mem­ bers to curtail brought about any reduction. The Senate had 105 employes, but a few less than two years^ago. The.House was more modest' being content with 88 Which is to say that the economy urge that resulted in cutting ap­ propriations to the bone, -and in some cases into the hone, did/ not. seriously affect the legislators them-’ selves. . Mrs. Johnson, State welfare com­ missioner, is much disturbed on ac­ count of the reduction of the mothers’ aid appropriation from £50,000 to $50 ,000 . , Mothers’ aid, as is generally known, is a fund, for the aid of mothers left with de­ pendent children for whom they are provide. Il has-its basis in the theory,' supported by the.. facts, that in many cases mothers with a little help can take care of their children and keep the family to gether, the aid being expended judiciously under the direction of the county welfare officer. W ith­ out that aid the f.-.mily is broken up and the children scattered—to orphanages ate to. private homes. If the legislatois had tried thev might have fouud the $20,000 without imposing an exira burdeu. They could easily have saved it by leaving unnecessary employes off tne payroll, as there were probably twice as many as were really heed­ ed. But some of the legislator at­ tached members of their own fami­ lies to the payroll. Fathers in a position to quarter their'own child­ ren oil the public treasury looked out for their own. Dependent children deprived of a father’s care must look out for themselves. They have no political influence.—States­ ville; Daily., iirtU it $ ir.hr Sifcce 1866.

And often she isn’t going to take “my advice nor her. parents’ advice, nor that of any other old wiseacre.” So this woman, ■ who knows so much of young people’s hearts, addresses herself this time, not to the girls who are doing the wrong and foolish things, but to their parehts^'^W itp’fhie' b e st: in­ tentions in the word, she laments, they are pushing their beloved daughters into the abyss that yawns for silly, reckless, unguided, little girls. We quote from the. New York Evening Post. "Wake up, fathers and mothers, from the trance in which you have droped yourself into believing that your daughter is different from all of the other girls of her generation, and that you can prevent her from doing all the thiugs that the other girls do. Cast aside your cherish­ ed belief that you can keep your girlchild in a hermetically sealed jar iu which she will be uutouched b>' all the waves of passion and de- iiie that siyay the youth about her luitil such time as you are ready to take her out of bondage and gi.ve Iier freedom. Eorget that you. ever imagined that you1 could eniorce absolute obedience ,on your daugh­ ter, and that she would be but clay >u your hands "I am not discussiifg here wheth­ er sixteen is old.euough to have Hates or not the ethics of dancing ai|d moving -- pictures. Without doubt, it would be sweet if sixteen "'Sre the artless child' her parents tlriuk she is, aud if she- wanted to Piay with dolls and still believed in fairies and read ‘Alice in Woiider- land,’ . f "But the point is that sixteen •row is often niofe sophisticated Ihan sixty; that she reads “ The Sheik’ instead of ‘Ali.ce,’ and crazy as she will never be again Tn life. • and ' hat 110 human can , keep her from doing the things that her'girl chtnus are doing. • ‘Are you, going to force your 'laughter to lie and deceive you or are von going to abate .some of 'our prejudice, perhaps eveii lay a- si<ie some of vout ^ h p ^ s aitd let her be trank aud Iiohestjwitli you?

That one thing puts her °ut of the clas's of ‘nice girls’ and “rakes boys treat her with a- lack of respect that they would not show to the girl who has the backing, of her home and father ,behind her. She isclassed as a ‘good sport’, who is willing to do anything to have a good time, aud who will go the limit. * ‘Tt is literally and terriply true that the girl who slips avvay from home to enjoy foibidden pleasure^ nearly always slips down .into the pit. Don’t make your daughter pay that frightful price for the pleasures of youth for which she is so hungry just because you think she isn’t old enough to have beaux. . “ And lio.v are you to kuow what sort of boys your daughter is associating with if you do not let them come to the house to see her? “ Remember,this, parents: Your girls are going to have beaux; they are going to have dates; thefy are going to^dance, they are goiug to places of amusement. You can't help that. They will go openly if they Cau--Secretely if they are forced to it. One-way you can guide them, protect them, keep them from excesses aud bad in- 'flueni.es. The other way you leave them, keep them from excesses and bad influences. The other way you .leave them to stumble alone, blindly down the dark path that leads to perdition.” —Ex'. Get The Facts, Here's a story, recently publish­ ed, that'has behind it a moral well worth keeping constantly before us. It is about a French artists who was about to order a second bottle of wfne, when his eyes fell upon a newspaper; headline, ‘ ‘.Hard. Times ara Coming. ” He didn’t order the secornd bot­ tle. iTs there anything wrong?” asked the landlord. ‘No, nothing except that hard times are coming and we must econ­ omize,” replied the artist. ‘ 'Hard times,” mused the land lord. - “ Then my wife must not ord er that silk dress we planned. Hard times,” said the dress­ maker when the order was can­ celled- V'“This is no time to make those improvements in my shop.” Hard times!” said the .builder when the dressmaker cancelled her building plans “ Then I cannot have my wife’s portrait painted.” So he wrote the artist and cancell­ ed the order. Much dejected with the truth of the newspaper’s prophecy, the ar-' tist went back the cafe and order­ ed a small bottle of wine to soothe his -Spirits ■ On a nearby chair was the paper in which he had read of the hard times two days previous. He picked it up for more details, ann discovered that it was two years old! The moral is obvious. The whole story preaches: Get -Your Facts Straight. That means: Are they reasonable facts? Isthesource reliable, informed aud honest? Are the deculicih logical? V And theu, between the lines, it says: Don’t be an alarmist. If your facts are correct, ,don’t dis' tribute them in a p^nia. When you put the brakes on a speekiug car, the road, the tires, the brakes and every nut a^cLbolt. in the car suffer in the1 attending strain.' ButJ above all, get the facts straight.—Ex. : .

DebtsiBondsAndSoFortti. “ No, I don t believe in a city increasing its bonded indebtedness every vear or every other year,” said a business man of Greensboro at Hotel Charlotte yesterday. "Cities like some people1 have a craze for going into debt—voting bonds every other minute. AU over this, country there are towns, cities and states that are in debt up to their ears. One thing I like about Pie- sideut Collidge is that he doesn’t take any stock in the debt craze. H e' knits nis brow frowns most ominously at the suggestion of debt of nation state or city, Charlotte, it seems to me is a- bout fed up on debt to,' so ' if any­ body is batching up a scheme in Iiis minddor more bonds and mote debt for Charlotte just remember that thetnau in the highest office iu.

It conclusively show that our president is wide a- wake to the perils of debt, bonds etc.. confronting this 'Nation, na tional, State, county and town. I am aski'ug you to publish it . for two reasons, one is: that we have a live, level headed' man in 'the office of president, who is doing his best to curb the debt and !bond craze in order that the burdens of taxa­ tion can be decreased. , Another reason is: to call the attention of our people, here in Mocksyille to the importance of the conditions confronting us right here In town.

Is it good business to let 5 or 6 men run 41s iu debt and issue bonds and pile up taxes to pay foi law suits with­ out consulting the taxpayers? Is it right, and do we want to continue five ineu in office here in Mocks ville who are mortgaging our homes for bouds and increased taxes with­ out’ our consent or permission Don’t they know that they are ‘Killing the goose that lays the golden eggs” by their methods of increasing the burdens of taxation to the-point- where it is driving people out of our town and keep­ ing enterprise's from coming here, because of-a high and excessive tax rate? Don't they know that the labores who are living in rent­ ed houses are payiiig this increased tax in their house reut? We call' on them now to publish an, exhibit showing'’" how many bonds have Deeu issued: the ainbuut of the town floating debt so that the people can see and knovv the fotal indebted­ ness of our town?

HlTl TJITT DUGK RAISING IS WORTHyCONSIDERING\ (The average farm has all the facu­ lties which are necessary for the rais­ ing of a goodly-number of ducks and with a little outlay may add consid­ erably to the farm income from that source. Duck raising In some sections of the country has become a ,greatly special­ ized Industry. It is hardly advisable for the average person to go into it extensively, at least not until he, has become acquainted with handling .ducks on ..a smaller scale. However, ducks do afford(a side line to the regu­ lar poultry business of the farm that is worthy of the consideration of the average person. The houses which are needed for ducks are simple affairs. They are piain and comfortable and need yery little furnishings. Generally on every farm ther.e is a small shed or building that can be used for this purpose. Warmth is not essential to the extent that is necessary with hens, but If it Is dry and protected it will generally serve the purpose. Ducks should not be closely confined. Artificial. incubation and brooding are used almost entirely by the large producers of ducks, but under most farm conditions the incubation and brooding will be mostly done by hens or by clucks. Before the hens are put on the eggs and again before the duck­ lings are given to her she should be thoroughly dusted with insecticides. The nest should be watched for lice and treated as may be necessary. The feed of the ducks to nature is both vegetable and animal. In the wild state they get a great deal of their food along the creeks and marshes. This type of food needs to be imitated to some extent. The duck has no crop like the chicken, the food passing directly to the gizzard- arid as a consequence they are not fitted for as much hard food as chickens. In fact, a, large' number of the profes­ sional raisers depends largely oh soft foods. • However, under farm condi­ tions where the ducks have free range the problem is not so difficult and most of the additional feed- will be grains. Feed that is adapted to pro­ ducing growth on chickens will answer the purpose for ducklings without go­ ing to the expense and inconvenience of >mixing additional rations. The main difference that will be noted by the beginner is that the ducklings make a faster growth and therefore they will consume a larger amount of food. Sick Fowls Afterwards Are Usually Worthless When a fowl becomes ailing and emaciated it most often denotes either a tubercular condition or coccldiosis. Such hens, should they , recover, are poor layers and are apt to pass thetj’ weaknesses to their offspring. Seldom will they get well and fatten to mar­ ketable condition, so it is a mone$- saving method to kill arid burn their carcasses. „ As the majority of poultry diseases are contagious, retaining such bird3 menaces the present health of the flock, as well as the vigor of future ones. Often one sees an emaciated hen walking stiff-legged about a hen­ house. Such birds almost always die without human aid, but while alive very likely infect other fowls ,as well as the yard where the remainder of the flock runs. Whole flocks are often Aevastated7 Uirough the . owner’s neg­ lect of destroying worthless individual hens. If flock owners realized that through ignoring such present menaces they are inviting weakly flocks in ensuing' years, mqre. importance would be placed on the necessity for immedi­ ately killing and burning hens or grow­ ing stock that becomes ailing, espe­ cially those which get decidedly poor to flesh, an almost unfailing tubercu­ lar indication. Poultry Hints Keep young stock groyvlng. Protect hens and young stock from the sun,- ' » * * * A clean, disinfected poultry house gives the laying hens a chance to do their share. . . » .» * Sensible people are willing to pool their interests and co-operate In a com­ mon cause.

Why not break a few of the old rules of house cleaning this year? Begin early and be ready to soak In the joys of early spring without that guilty feeling that you are neg­ lecting work that.should be done. For the house­ wife, who does ail of her work and most of her housecleaning, if not all of it, except the airing of the mattresses and rugs, which is the man’s part of the heavy work, It Is wise to begin early and do a little., two or three days a week. It Is1 sur­ prising how, much can bp done In a few hours, well planned. We always used to think that, we must begin with the attic and end with the cellar; why not reverse and be* gin with the cellar, except perhaps the furnace room and then do the kitchen, cupboards, dishes and get the worst work done first. Painting may be done, papering and all the messy work which one hates to be part of, when the apple blossoms blow and the orioles sing. Walls may' be cleaned, windows washed on the Iqside at least, wood­ work cleaned and curtains laundered, then with a day to air the bedding and mattresses well, have the rugs sunned and aired,' the room is cleaned. A windy day is just right for airing clothing from the closets; of course it should be a. dry sunny day. :Wlth closets cleaned, another bugbear has been put to rout for a few months. We should watch fpr the moth miller.. A piano is a fine incubator for moths. The felts make a good food and the dark is their delight. A rather unpleasant treatment, but Sne most effective, Is, to open the piano arid soak every hammer and felt With gaso­ line; do, not spare it—a quart will not be too much and will do no harm. Now shut the piano and let it stand un­ opened for a week. You wiU never see another moth eome^from the piano this season. Of course one must be careful hot • • do thls ln a room with an open fire, or. lamp. Shuti up the room if you can and leave It closed for a time until the gasoline has done its work. Rainy days; when othzr work cannot be attended to, the bureaus and dress­ ers may be gone over, relihlng the drawers and getting things In perfect order. Never mind if the neighbors criticize this way" of house ,cleaning; you may- laugh at them while, you are listening to- the/birds, being thankful that you need riot miss a minute of the glorious ‘ blossom’ time ..of May,* and June.

Washington,—President Coolidge ap­ pointed a commission of five to study the Muscle Shoals project and sub­ mit recommendations to form a basis for legislation at the next session of Congress. ,With the aid of the commission the President hopes to lay down sugges­ tions to Congress in December -that will solve the government’s problem at Muscle Shoals -that has been hang­ ing fire since the war. .

In th e forest A nderson stum bles /Upon th e entrance to a gorge and is convinced he has located P elly’s mine. CHAPTER X— Continued Lee saw that from the point where he was clinging, there appeared to be a fairly easy descent to the bottom. It was only the upper parts of the cliffs in the gorge that were unscalable. But he could go no further now. Anxiety for Joyce was; rising in him. He was half afraid she might: do something rash. In some way Eathway seemed to be associated with Pelly; perhaps he was protecting bim. Suppose, then, that the girl had gone back to' the Free Traders’ headquarters on Siston lake? Or fled into the storm in her frenzy? Suppose they had been followed? Lee remembered his fancy that he had seen an Indian watching them. The Free Traders would surely have been watching the trail at either end of the lalce, knowing that sooner or later they must emerge out of the forests. ' Then he remembered the shadow tn the log house, and this specter In which he had disbelieved, now began to assume in his mind a formidable aspect. Suddenly, as Lee clung there, he heard a rumbling sound above his head, and a moilient iater something hurtled past it and smashed upon the ground OfcIhe chasm. Looking down, Lee saw the fragments of an enor­ mous boulder lying on the ground im­ mediately beneath him. He had had a narrow escape. And reluctantly h'e turned to re-enter the tunnel. But before he had thrust his head and shoulders in, there came an­ other rumble. And this time it was only the little projecting ledge above his head that saved his life. The boulder struck the edge of it, shot out into the air, and, just missing him, smashed to pieces below. - Lee looked .up, but the overhanging cliffs shut out the view of everything except the overhanging bushes and the sky. Whether or not human agency was responsible for the fall of the two boulders, it was certain that the tun­ nel’s mouth did not appear to be*a particularly healthy spot at that mo­ ment. 1 And Lee forced his head and shoul­ ders through, and groped for the rock ladder within, bruising his thighs and shins against the edges of the open­ ings.’ Extending his hands, he felt th'e smooth surface of the water-worn, in­ terior wall. He grasped' the ladder, clung to -it, pulled himself up, and found his footing. And then of a sudden Lee bad the unmistakable instinct that he was not alone. There .was-another living thing within the tunnel! way than by the death of one of them. It would'be a sharp, relent­ less struggle, in which Lee's disadvan­ tage lay in the fact that he could not be the first to flre. . s Lee called: "Is that you, Pelly? I want to talk to you.” No answer came. He strained his eyes upward through the darkness. - Colors and wheels of light flashed across his vision and went out. “Pelly, listen "to me!” Lee tried again. “You know what I’ve comt Eor. You’ve got no chance. Surren­ der, and you’ll get fair treatment." Still no answer; and yet Lefe could feel that other human personality close V. him. He waited, baffled. There was no way to move, save ver­ tically; and there was no possible re­ treat for him. The ice-smootli granite walls were all about him. The tun­ nel was a straight, narrow shaft, up and down, from the rocking stone above to that deadly drop below. It was impossible to rush the other, impossible to do anything except to ■ clamber stiffly up those slippery rungs of rpck. expecting every instant to hear tlie roar of Pelly’s pistol and to receive the bullet in his breast. It was absurdity. And once again Lee tried: “Pelly, you’d better give up. I can shoot you from here. Surrender, and—”He did not end that sentence. For, as he clung there, in a moment the thing above him had materialized into life, action, fury. A bellow burst from its throat, and the sound, compressed within the shaft, and deflected from wall to wall, sounded like the roar of some prehistoric monster. ■ And a heavy body was -precipitated against him with a force that all but dislodged him. For an instant Lee struggled wildly to retain his balance —and then there came a blow over the heart that knocked the wind out of him. Lee’s hand encountered an enormous hand at his chest. Within that hand he felt the hilt of a knife. Reaching back, Lee’s fingers closed upon the last . Inch or two of a wide blade. The steel appeared to be buried al­ most to the extremity witffin his body. There was no sense of a stab, but for an instant Lee felt a deadly faint-- ness overcome him, and again he reeled and clutched for foothold. Then lie had torn the band away, plucked out the knife, and hurled it down through the darkness of the tunnel Into the gorge below. The next Instant he was fighting the most desperate battle of his life to win through the tunnel before he bled into unconsciousness. He caught at two long, sinewy arms that clutched his body in the endeavor to fling him down; >and, holding on by their knees and feet, the two wrestled in complete silence. ' It was a man—the thing that held Lee, but it seemed more like a mon­ ster, for the naked arms were covered with thick hair, underneath which the sinews moved over each other I^ke steel-, bands. Lee was no match in wrestling; he could only cling on like grim death, feeling his lungs constrict under that pressure, and expecting ev­ ery moment to feel his injured rib crack In his side. His left hand encountered a groove in the rpeky rung above him. and, gripping it, determined that nothing should tear his hold away, with' his right fist he-began hammering his as­ sailant’s face and body incessantly. His blows rebounded from the great chest as if It were of rubber, and each blow sent the breath issuing hoarsely from the lungs with raucous wheezing that filled' the tunnel. If the other could have got Lee’s left hand, he- might have tom him from his bold, but, as if unaware of his hold, his assailant put all his 'strength into the endeavor to force breath from his body and twist him backward; while Lee, clinging on des­ perately, continued to batter the face and body. Although ft was impossible to draw back his arm far enough to deliver a blow with full force, Lee’s lower position gave him the advantage of equipoise over his strange assailant,' and enabled hltn to administer fear­ ful punishment. Fdr a mlhute or two It was proble­ matic whether Lee could withstand the strain .long enough to conquer. The great shoulders swung Lee from side to side in the shaft like a child, agd ill the while Lee, believing hi nself seriously, if not fatally wounded, fought on with the mechanical action of a piston, dashing his fists into his opponent’s face until at last* groans be­ gan to burst from the other. Then, feeling the clutch relaxing. B y Victor Rousseau (Copyright by* W. G. Chapman.) WNTJ Service. Though it was absolutely dark, ex- , Lee let go his hold, and, standing straight up on the rung, brought both fi^Js into play. No human being could have Stoo^ up against that fearful punishment. Lee’s fists were wet with blood. -The grasp about him relaxed. He redoubled the fury of his blows— and suddenly found that he was ham- 'merlng at the bare, face of the'rock.. His assailant was gone. Faintly Lee heard the scraping of his feet on :he- upper ledges of the rock ladder. .. . Then, feeling cautiously above him, Lee continued his ascent, until at length there .came,, a tiny glimmer of Ight from above,-changing, into a stid- Jen’glare, as of high noon. ' The tunnel was , empty. The glare decreased, to a glimmer. Lee understood what it meant: His as^, gallant had tilted back the rocking stone and fled. In another moment, or two Lee was cept for the faintest reflection from the Interior of the gorge, which filtered up from below, and though Lee could not hear the faintest sound, he felt its presence; by some inner sense that was not bearing, lie felt the rhythmical pulsations of Its life. And it was a human being. Lee felt the fog of human hatred flung out to-1 ’ward him. Instinctively he knew the Imminence of an eneounter undet con­ ditions more nerve-racking than any • he had ever .experienced; He knew for sure now that the fall of 'the tw6 boulders had been no accident. He had been patched, he had been seen to enter, and that -watdher meant to fight bim to the, death; And Ol'; course it was Pelly! ' He did not relish the prospect of a straggle with the crazed old man, one which'could hardly end In anv other beneath the. stone. He flattened him­ self upon the ground and drew his au­ tomatic. He fired one shot, and, be­ fore the echoes had died away, had pushed the stone back and emerged, pistol In hand. - The glare had been only In contrast to the dark of the tunnel. Outside it was melancholy twilight. Lee emerged into a solitary, snowbound world. There was no sign of his antagonist, who had evidently had enough for the present. ' Lee looked down nt the fragments of shirt that remained to him, expect­ ing to find himself soaked in blood.. He was astonished to see only a thin thread on his chest. He tore the rag open. There' was only a scratch on the skin from the knife-point, but there was a spreading bruise—under the thick coils of Joyce’s hair, in which the knife blade had become entangled. The blow, struck immediately over the heart, would have killed .him In­ stantly but for that. Lee raised the tresses reverently to his lips.' And with a deep feeling of tenderness toward the girl, he began to make his way through the twilight toward the log house. He was torn between apprehension for her and speculation as to his assail­ ant. His first thought bad been that the man was Pelly.' But now he be­ gan to doubt this. An old man might have had his assailant’s strength—he would not have had the endurance. But stronger still was the conviction that that monstrous form which had attacked him In the shaft could never have been the father of Joyce. Yet who but Pelly knew the secret of the mine? The problem was at present Insol­ uble, but Its consideration brought with It the fear that Joyce might -have been attacked as well. Lee. quickened his footsteps through the storm, He Flattened Himself on fh£- Ground and Drew His Automatic. which was now subsiding, though the snow still fell steadily. He blamed himself bitterly for having left the girl. Surely the strength of; that love and tenderness he felt toward her would reach her, and she would respond I And he planned what he would say to 'her. He would advise her that it was improbable that1 her father would receive anything.but a nominal sen­ tence, that he might even go free, that In tlie absence of witnesses a convic­ tion might prove Impossible. His best course would be to surrender. Lee began , to grow more hopeful. The fog house came into sight, standing bare and" bleak in the snowy wilderness. There was no light within. Lee’s alarm increased. He hurried to the door. He called, but no answer came. He .struck a' match-. By the tiny light he saw that/the kitchen and the adjacent .'room were empty. And he began going from room to room, striking matches and calling, her, and knowing all the while the fu­ tility of It. Joyce rwas not In the house. ■ She had fled into the snow, and, desperately weary as he was ,after his encounter, Lee had no alternative but to take up the quest She could not hhve gone far, but she must have been In a state of desperation to have gone out into.that storm. ,Which way? The falling snow had surely long since ob­ literated her footprints. He made his way down toward the trail beside the river. Only two ways were possible: one ran toward the mission, nine' or ten miles away, the other in the opposite direction to the. Free Traders’ headquarters. But suddenly Lee’s hopes', and spirits leaped up confidently. Stoop­ ing, he traced the tracks'' of a sleigh along the trail:- . It had been draws by a single horse, and it was going In the direction of the mission. 'There was only-one .reasonable Ii- ference. Father McQrath Inust have b i« r passing, ' perhaps- he bad 'met JtVeerandhehad taken h'er with him! \ Lee took up the long walk imme­ diately. The snow was deep, progress was difficult without snowshoes, and the frost had already crusted the sur­ face, so that bis feet sank in cum- brously at- every step. But a great load was removed from his mind; the future now looked roseate, At last the mission came into sight —a group of log huts clustered about a larger one on a low elevation, sur­ rounded by the forest. Lights gleamed pleasantly inside them .' A horse was neighing in som§;i stables. Over the largest hut a wooden cross stood out against the background of the sea-gray sky. Lee strode up tne ascent, hesitated as to which hut to approach, stood ir­ resolute for a moment in the open space, .it the crest of the little hill. Then, as he waited, the door of one of them ivas flung open, and a man In a mackinaw and lumberman’s boots stepped out toward him. Under his arm he held a rifle. He presented it at Lee’s breast. He looked to be about fifty years of age, or a little older. He had a round smooth face as soft as a babe’s, an incipient paunch. A silver cross hung from his mackinaw. A jolly-looking priest; but the ey/is within the face were^ steel-gray and ice cold. He stopped two pace* distant “Take yersel’ ott. ye domned FTee Trader," he said softly,, “or I’ll blow ye into Kingdom Corou I” CHAPTER XI “If You Find My Father” Lee spoke quietly. “I want to see Miss Pelly." “Aye, ye want to see Mees Pelly! But ye canna see her and ye wilna see her.” > “Will you give Miss Pelly . my message?’’ “Will ye tak’ yersel’ awa’?” “No!” McGrath flung down the rifle. “Come on. then; come on, ye swine of a hooch peddler!” he shouted, bran­ dishing his fists. Lee flung up his arm just in time to protect himself against a straight right that would have knocked him senseless. Next moment Father Mc­ Grath’s arms were locked around him, holding him as if in a vise. “Will yc tak’ yersel’ awa’ before Fm tempted t o forget my calling?” the father panted. “Father McGrath—” “I’ll ha’ no dealing wi’ ye and your nest of ineequlty. I’m no afeard of all the Free Traders that iver come oot o’ h—I. i’ll send ye back to the de’il before your time, if you come med­ dling wi’ my. meesion. - “I’ve made my compact wi’ your malster, as I’d mak’ a Compact wi’ the evil one himself,, to protect my bairns. Mebbe ye’re a new hand—I don’t remember your face—so I’ll re­ mind ye of it. Ye’re to be free to peddle your filthy liquors whaur ye weel—aye, an’ I dinna doot the guid Lord wull score it again ye too, for shamin’ His good corn whuskey by meexin’ in your feelthy wood alcohol the way ye do—ye can peddle them whur ye please, but ye’ll leave my lasses and weans alone, or I’ll mak Siston lake too hot to hold ye.” “Father McGrath—” Lee tried again;' “Will ye fight, mon to mon, ye domned Free Trader? " Will ye fight or wrestle wi’ me?” - “I'd be glad to, Father, but just now one of my ribs is broken. When I get better, perhaps—” Father McGrath released him. “Ye’re speakin’ the truth? Weil, then, tak yersel’ off. Ye canna see Mees Pelly—” A light footstep sounded beside him. Joyce stood there. Lee swung toward her. “I came to make sure you were safe. Joyce—” Lee held out' his arms. “Dinna speak to him, Mees Pelly. I understan’ he’s helped ye—aye, there’s good In the wursst of us—but he’ll get around ye, Mees Pelly, Go back I” “Father, there’s something I want to say to him,” Joyce answered In a low voice. “Aye, but he’s got a smooth tongue, and the stomp of Ineequity hasn’t'coine upon his face yet. Ye wouldna theenk he'd sold hisself to his maisfet. If ye must speak to him, I’ll just stand by, and if I see he’s getting ’round ye I’ll send him aboot his business.” With which the doughty father took up his post just out of hearing, glar-' ing at Lee and prepared for instan­ taneous intervention. Joyce stepped forward. . "Lee, I—I’m sorry for what I said to you tliis afteraoon. It was partly the shock of awakening, I think. I was unjust to you, and unjust, too,'In coming. here without trying to get word to you. I owe you a great’ deal. I a'ccept your word that when you' met me in the range you did not know ,who I was, that you did not pursue my acquaintance because I was the daughter of the man whom It was your duty , to apprehend, I - I bear you no ill-wlir for having to do your duty/’ “Then, Joyce—” ‘‘But/’ she said solemnly, “you wfil see h*w my father’s safety, perhaps his life, stands/between us. We can only be enemies—at least, until—” . “That’s what I wanted to . speak about,” said Lee. “As I understand It, this killing was committed years ago, a whole generation ago/ It was more or less justified. It your father Is to .trial and convicted, it will almost TraHaInly b> for manslaughter. His sentence will be a nominal one. Quite probably it will be Impossible to produce the witnesses required to con- .vict at all. In such case he will go free. - "He has acted ill-advisedly. He should never have fled. His best course will be_to surrender. He will find himself "a free man in a little wljile, instead of a hunted outlaw. Will you unite with me in persuading him to surrender?” She shook her bead. “We always told him that—my mother and I," she answered. “But the. thing had crazed him, he hated civilization after it hap­ pened.' He was insane upon that sub­ ject. He will never surrender. “Let me try to picture to you what happened, and the treachery and faith­ lessness tt^at Iiave always pursued him. When. my father fled from the law he came here and settled with my mother. I was bom here. For a long time we were very happy. My father trapped, and in those days this was one of the richest fur districts In Canada.' _. ‘‘But my father was an educated man, and In his heart he was always chafing against his exile. He always cherished the hope some da;’ to take us south where I could be 'educated properly. Then in an evil day he fan­ cied be had discovered a gold mine. “I t. became a mania with him. He would tell no one where It was, except Jacques Leboeuf, an old servant, whom he trusted. They used to go off by night and work it together. My father was always talking about the gold he had collected. He wanted to develop the mine, to sell it for a fortune, but he was always afraid of being dis­ covered, and he put it off and put It off; and neither my mother nor I ever believed In the mine. “Then in an evil day a man called Rathway came up; He was a small whisky peddler. He had committed some crime against the Indians. He had been beaten, pursued, and was half dead when my father saved him from their vengeance. He .took him In and fed and rProtected him. Rath- way learned Qf the mine, and was al­ ways searching for it, but neither my father nor Leboeuf' would tell him where it was. Once he tried to spy bn them, and Leboeuf had him by the throat and would have' killed him if my father had not intervened In time. “My mother died. Rathway grew fat and consequential, lived here, helped my father with his traps, and, though for a Ioqg time my father did not know it, continued debauching the Indians with his whisky. When I was a girl of seventeen he began to take notice >of me. He said he loved me. I didn’t know much about love, but I knew I hated him. Then one day my father came In from the woods just in time to - protect, me from him, and be shot Rathway through the arm. “H e'was'aiming again to shoot him through the heart, for he .was terrible when bis anger was roused, when Rathway, standing facing him, with his arm dripping blood, coolly told him he knew that my father had com­ mitted one murder already, and- that -the facts' were In his possession, writ­ ten down and Irft for safety with a friend in the south. The change in my father was dreadful.- He dropped his rifle, he seemed almost demented. His fears for my future, conflicting with his fears for the present and his. fear? of Rathway, broke his will. “After that, Rathway stayed on and on, and they were always talking to­ gether, and . Rathway threatened-..my father, .but still,my father refused to show him the n^lne, In spite of his threats. My father wanted all of the gold for me-r-it was his mania. ‘‘Once Leboeuf came to my father and offered to kill Rathway, but my father refused, and Lebouef, who was devoted to him, never thought of dis­ obeying his strict command.- ■“That happened, before the Free Traders were organized In Montreal, but already the hooch sellers were getting together. They had estab­ lished a number of posts, one of them at Lake Misquash, miles away, a week’s journey north of here. Rath­ way went to Lake Misquash to confer with .them. As soon as he was gone, my father' seized the opportunity to send me away south to a convent, to be educated. . ,7 - Here’s the big. question. Will . It separate the. lovers, in spite of their love?

The Purest f )ur, Buy E BEST G overnor McLean has fully con­ vinced the State by now that his economy program is not a flourish, He has called for a list of all salaries paid State employes JliuI already the paring process has JjeiTUi), both in the num ber of em­ ploye? and the salaries paid. Friday came the report of anoth­ er form of extravagance struck at In a vital spot. Those in the news naper craft who have handled so much of the printed m atter sent out by various Slate departm ents have generally been convinced that there has been much waste in the printing of m atter that is not prov J11Cr effective and also in the dupli cation because few of the depart­ ments ever keep their m ailing lists up to date. Governor McLean is going deep­ er into the m atter of printing than this though and has ordered that embossed stationary disappear from all departments. Letterheads and envelopes will be of uniform size aud style and will be prim ed instead of embossed. In the m a t­ ter of hundreds of thousands of letter-heads aud envelopes each Vt.ir the difference in printing and embossing will am ount to a good iiiiniv dollars. Reffirnis have already been put iuto effect in the purchasing of supplies for a num ber of the depart­ ments and institutions that should not onlv save money but prevent the charging of personal purchases against the treasury of the State. The departments are falling in line. The Corporation Commis­ sion will try .to get along with handling the bus regulations w ith­ out appointing a special officer at a goodly salary. The revenue de­ partment has appointed a new of­ ficial in the motor license bureau to replace one resigned, with a saving’] <f $300 per. year. It is' indicted that another official w ith a salary 9 Bi $6,000 , automobile and other ex p:nses. who has resigned, may not even be replaced but th at the pre­ sent executive staff of the revenue department will handle the addi tioual work. These instances of economies ef fected are uot so large taken in dividualiy, but takeu collectively and extended all through the de­ partments and institutious—aud by all meatis iucludiug the State col­ leges—they will total m any thous ands of dollars each year. Aud be- l S|ies the saving iu money, we have j * strong feeling that the applied economy policy will actually re­ sult iu more efficiency all along the line.—The Dispatch.- 4E COMPANY ♦ - ~ e y b a c k w i t h o u t q u e s t i o n HUNT’S GUAnANTBED 'IN DISEASE REMEDIES u n f s S a l v e a n d S o n p V ® ” r U e n t m * * n t o f l t r h , E c 2c m O . n e w © r m , T e U e r o r o t h e n * . p n ' g fixin di9eAM»4.

Better Leave Him Off Great pressure is being brought on Gov. McLean to retain George Ross Pou as superintendent of the State prisou, and the impression prevails that Pou will be retained. His reappointment, iu the face of the record, will greaiely weaken public confidence in the purpose of Gov. McLean to conduct the State's business in a business manner, ef­ ficiently and economically, Pou’s retention would be solely on politi­ cal grounds. Unlesshe is a very, mtioh slandered man, he was not a success in private life He cer tainly has not been a success as prison superintendent. For the first time in near 25 years the pri­ son has run behind and there is a large deficit. On top of that its business has been loosely managed The one single fact that purchases for personal use were charged 10 the State prison, paid for by the State, and nothing done about it until a movement was beguu for an investment—that cue thing is am­ ple grounds for Pou’s retirement, if there was nothing else; aud there are other things. It is urged iu Pou’s behalf that he should be reappointed because he has been attacked from within the parly; that his reappointment would- close the mouths of his critics with­ in the party. If he is ousted, ac­ cording to that theory, it will be accepted as confirmation of the cri ticisin and the Republicans will have much campaign thunder. There should be a place in some of the institutions for the feeble-mind­ ed for those who seriously offer that absurd contention.- Sb-, far trom Pou’s reappointment putting an end to Democratic criticism it will intensify it. Those who have criticism him, we take it, have cri­ ticised him f->r cause. So far from the cause being removed by his re­ appointment it will be aggravated, and the critics will include those re­ sponsible for the .reappointment in their remarks. Of course it never occurs to a politician that the way to shut off critics-will include those responsible for the reappointment in their remaiks. Of course it never occurs to a politician that the way to shut off criticisw is to re­ move the cause; that the remedy for an error is to rectify it. So far as staying or stopping criticism by white washing Pou with a reap­ pointment, it will have about the same effect as the ostrich hiding his head in the satid. Continuing a man who has been a failure, to say the least, is endorsing a failure if they know it —Statesville Daily. Sting Legislators.

Investi­ gators are running down prohibi tion enforcement, writing just what they find, whether it be favorable to or against the Volstead enforce­ ment act, but it will be noted that all of these open-minded investiga­ tors are finding some where space to explain their belief in several outcome of the present dry laws. All laws are violated, some more than others. AU more in some sections than others, but the world moves to better days and with these better days we have large hopes that conditions will be bettered. The biggest and best evidence that prohibition is well worthwhile is to compare conditions as we find them in the large, on the streets and wherever men gather, with a few years ago Some years ago men reeling un­ der the influence of drink were very common; today such sights are few and far between. The old crop of drunkards is fast passing away and those who are tampering with what they can fay j hands on now make up a comparatively small per cent- age of the raw matial for inebriates, and if this small group persists in absorbiug the bootleg th^y find a- vailable they will not be here long to-tell the tale. It is perfectly absurd to claim that prohibition does not prohibit; the trouble with some fault finders who ciaitn so is that it really does prohibit.—Salisbury Post. The Tide Turned. , The- late legislature did. a good; masy things wise and otherwise.” says Charity and Children, ‘ but there is one thing to its credit that no man can belittle or deny, and that is, it completely reversed the tide of wild extravagance in the ad­ ministration of our government that was fast leading us to disaster. Ruthless exoosure of reckless ex­ penditure put' the plungers comple­ tely out of business. Instead of be­ ing crowned as heroes, these cham pions, of progress suddenly found themselves on the defensive The public changed its mind over night Thewar cry ‘forward’ which had well niirh ruined tne state, was changed to "stop, look and listen ’ Did you ever in all your life see so complete and sudden a reversal of public opinion? Nobody is sorry that the state has made progress but everybody is glad that we are looking about now to find a. wav to pay for progress The issuing of bonds by the million had completely demoralized us. It made us spend­ thrifts, and we forgot that there is such a work as economy in the dic­ tionary. It was plainly revealed in the high roiling officials around Ral eigh. but it seped all the way down to the very bottom of the social or der. The general assembly had wisdom enough to see the danger; and it applied the brakes at the very beginning of the session and kept them tight to the very end- They listened to the governor. Out of two score measures he proposed, all but one or two were accepted and passed The effect of this return to sanitary and business' sense by our own lawmakers is bound )to have a wholesome influence on all our peo- high and low: great and small, rich and poor. Icis a remarkable fact that exactly the same effect has be?n produced in our national life by the rigid policy of economy demanded by the President of. the Dnited States Tne .tendency to national extrava­ g a n c e has been ctieckep. The pay- as vou-go plan is coming into public favors once more Let us hope that our p e o p le everywhere are learning over again the lesson . we had about forgotten, namely, that , it takes cash to settle bills while credit only.postpones their payment.” What doc people do for a guide if they haven’t any conscience?; '■ " -i* A large city is a.place where.a man can carry a cane without being-snow­ balled by small boys. The Happy Small Town Life. ‘ There are certain recotnponses derived by living in a town or small city that the great ciiies cannot $ve. Chief among them are ■ the delightful friendships. In the small town a person is taken at his face value. He does not have to be a uiau of money to be a leader in the commuity, his wife does not have ro wear tlie latest Paris styles to move in the best social circles, his children do not have to be cared for by a nurse to play in the parks and yards of the richest men. Then thereis the cheerful greetings' ex changed as people pass and repass on the streets, the neighborly visits it) the evening, the tender interest shown in the hour of sickness or distress. In the cities people are cluttered up iu apartments and houses, never speaking on the streets, nevef stoppingforachatinthe post of­ fice. It is a hard existence, one tliat seems to be an existence sole­ ly for the money they derive. There is the rush for the office, the crowd­ ed^ tree ts or car, the grind of busi­ ness, a short stop for lunch down town, and back to the grind which is-.interupted by the rush for home in- the evening. The enter ain- nient is artificial, at the theatre, tlie movie or some caberet. vWe of the small towu get close to nature. We enjoythepure air of ofxthe woods and fields, the wond­ erful sun sets. W ehaveourgarded pitches, maby a cow, certainly rooni enough for the kids to romp and play. It is true few small town people ever attain riches, but ^receive > sbmetliiftg. - far - more valuable, that is, the jov of living. —Chairtovvn News. Kick Them Out. Dr. Albert Anderson superintend­ ent of the insane hospital at Ral­ eigh, has not vet explained why the taxpayers of the state were called upon to buy a $1,710 Buick couple for his wife to ride over Raleigh to buy expensive suites of furniture, silver, draperies and other expensivet things for the $15, 000 mansion erected for the doctor and his family while insane people were confined in jails and other places in the state because theie was 110 roonv-iti Raleigh for them If there every was a place that needs a wholesale cleaning out fr„in cellar to garret it is the state in sane asylum at Raleigh and the state prisou.

Worth was state treasurer he had a clerk nam ed Martin in his office that embez­ zled somethin? like $16,000 .' Mr Worth, honest man that he was, paid every cent of it even selling hi^ h >me to get the money to reimbuse the state When Treasurer Lacv who succeeded Worth came in he re­ tained Martin for awhile and Martin continued to steal under Lacy. His defalcation was discoved and he was fired The legislature made good tne loss fallinir on Lacy but refused to reimburse Worth -It. made good loss Watts in Cooper's bank and will doubtless make good the Doughton loss in the Salisbury bank when called upon to do so. At the recent sessibn of the general assembly1. Senator Grant, of Davie, undertook to get a bill through reimbursing former Treasurer Worth, who is now old and incapacitated for labor, for the money Martin stole. Did the legislature who had reimbursed Lacy who had forgiven Watts and who release Doughton, turn a helping hand to; old man Worth? No sir. Not them.

But he is-in the fact the vvo-.ld’s best iriend, and we are more glad to welcome him back, in these days of early spring, wueu he rises ear­ lier each morning and sets later each evening, bringing longer day­ light, renewed fertility and out door pastimes. Although the short days of win­ ter are very popular, the curtain of early dark serves its purpose, aud shuts out distractions that keep us from self improvement and s^vay from our means of livelihood. In winter people find time to read and enjoy social intimulates energy and more can be accomplisKed. In spile of these advantages, the return of the sun presaging a change of seasons brings; a thrill of anticipation. Those who fret under the July sun are captivoted by thoughts of work in the garden aud on the lawn, and of long aud pleasant journeys to distant points in their machines. • It is not surprising that there once snn seemed like the defeat of life. His return was the victory of light anti fertility. Thereis something majestic a bout the process of the seasons. It gives us confidence in the universe -nd make 11s feel tnat planting time aud harvest, day and night, summer and winter shall shall not fall, but each shall perform its share of service for the welfare of humanity.—Ex. A Big Gap Closed. The Legislature has closed one ,big K ap tfiat sKoukl greatlv reduce in the passage of the new “blue sky” law that Governor McLean pro­ nounces the best in the land. The first big handicap it places on on the stock salesman is that it re­ duces the amount of commission to n >t over five per cent. Heretofore stlesmati who have had wares nf doubtful nature, or even those they believed gond, to offer the public h ive been allowed ten, fifteen or twenty per cent. Those who are looking for easy money by doubtful methods will give this State the go by since the new provision is now tff-ctive. Another provision that' should prove a bar to placing of shocks of doubtful meric' is that forbidding banks to. buy or discount.notes given in payment for stocks. Much of the stock sold in North Carolina in the past few years that proved valueless has been sold on notes. The sales­ men have taken pains of course, to find that, the makers of the notes were thoroughly liable for the a- m.iunt subscribed. The notes have been sold at the best rates procur­ able to whatever banks would take them. Too frequently it has hap »ened that by time the notes be came due the concerns in which the stock was subscribed have bad to go on any pay, the note purchaser claiming to be mighty hard for a bankrupt concern to collect on notes given for something of no value. The provision for -licensing stock salesmen or given permission for, the stocks have also been made more rigid. It might be said that the gap is being closed a little late. True it will not bring back that which has tone, but it should go a long way to prevent some historical repeti.ions. —The Dispatch.

Pace, the oldest official in point of service, as well as age to hold that tvpe of posit'011 in the Unite'l Stales, died at his Hender­ sonville home last Thursday. Mr. Pace was 80 years old aud had been clerk of the superior court of Henderson county for 60 years. Iu November. 1 qc2. he was elected for another term and nearly two more year to service . Except on two occasions, he had no opposition for the office"from any party. He was a loyal Republican. Mr. Pace joined the Confederate, army'in 1863, when ne was a boy in his teens, and served until the end of the war. H e was a mem­ ber of the Presbyterian church aud a Mason.

Chicago.—Mrs. Emma McClintock, mother of William Nelson McClintock, millionaire orphan, for whose death William Darling Shepherds foster father of the youth, has been indicted for murder, probably died of mer­ curic poisoning, a formal statement issued by Coroner Oscar Wolff said. The statement was prepared after the coroner' had read a report given Iiim by Dr. William D. McNally, cor­ oner’s chemist, who made an examina­ tion of the vital organs of young Mc- Clintock’s mother, whose body was disinterred three weeks ago after hav­ ing been buried fpr sixteen years. The analysis of the vital organs of Dr. Oscar Olson, the McClintock’s family physician, whose body was dis­ interred at the same time, has not yet been completed. Dr. Olson 'died three years ago, only a few hours after Shepherd had visited him. A final report on his organs is expected Monday. Judge Harry Olson, chief justice of the municipal court and a brother of Dr. Olson, who instigated the investi­ gation Into young McGiintock’s death and later into the deaths of Dr. Olson and Mrs. McClintock, maintains that both Mrs. McClintock and his brother died of unnatural deaths. . Shepherd, Judge Olson declares, visited his brother only a few hours before the latter died and residid at the home of Mrs. McClintock and her son at the time of her death, when she entrust­ ed the rearing of her son to Shep­ herd and his wife. Shepherd faces a charge of murder, the indictment charging that he ad­ ministered typhoid germs to his young ward in order to gain possession of young McClintock’s million dollar estate. * N om inate V on H inderburg. . Berlin.—The. nomination of . Field Marshal Von Hinderburg- for the Ger­ man presidency continues the subject of heated editorial polemics in the Berlin and provincial press. The organs of the united right par­ ties, which have chosen the war idol as their political champion, are sup­ porting him vigorously, in the face of criticism by liberal organs, which are reproducing recent statements of con­ servative journals opposing the nomi­ nation of Von Hinderburg. Newspa-' pers supporting the candidacy of exr Chancellor Dr. Wilhelm Marx, nomi­ nee of the Weimar coalition, also are giving prominence to comment from the United States and London., The field marshal’s campaign man­ agers are displaying abundance of Op­ timism in regard to his prospects for polling the highest individual vote in the elections of April 26. Their cam­ paigning efforts will be concerned chiefly with locating the 12,000,000 eligible voters who were stay-at-homes during the elections to the reichstag On December 7 and in the preliminary voting for a president on March 29. “A quick asset,” in the nature of a sure vote is claimed by the united right in the support promised Von Hinderburg by the variagated politi­ cal organizations in Bavaria where not only the official Bavarian peoples party but also various unattached groups and all of the fascist! organi­ zations have come out for the field marshal. The forthcoming campaign largely will be fought out on paper, as neither the united right nor the par­ ties comprising the Weimar coalation are in a position to spend excessive sums for campaign purpose;. The united right!is said to have ex­ hausted its exchequer in' its attempt to, elect Dr, Karl- Jarres to the presi­ dency on March .29. Although for better situated for the purpose of rais­ ing funds than are the socialist, demo­ cratic and centrist parties, the Von Hindenburg leaders will rely chiefly on' t£e strength of their'organization and the appeal of their' champion to na­ tional sentiment.

Elkin.—According to information re­ ceived here one of the most serious automobile' accidents ever known in that community occurred near Har­ mony, resulting in severe injury to each of the seven occupants of a Grant touring car, and total destruc­ tion of the machine. The accident occurred near the home of Mr. and Mrs. Grover Jacks, of Harmony, as they, with their four daughters and a young man, Robah Campbell about 17 years of age, who was at the wheel of the car, were re­ turning from a birthday celebration held at the home of W. E. Campbell, near Houstonville. It seems that young Campbell was driving at a live­ ly rate of speed when he suddenly ran into, a bed of sand, breaking the steering gear, the car turning three complete somersaults over an em­ bankment below. Mr. Jacks, owner of the car, sus­ tained painful bruises about the body, not thought to be serious. . Mrs. Jacks was severely bruised and her hearing seems to be destroyed. The eldest daughter, Miss Stella Jacks, aged 18, sustained a fractured skull, and is in an unconscious state, not expected to recover. The second daughter, Miss Sallie Jacks, 16 years old, escaped with only minor injuries of the limbs. Lodemia Jacks, the 14-year-old daugh­ ter of the family, was painfully injur­ ed about the face, her mouth being badly lacerated and several teeth knocked out. The infant daughter, Ruth, eight months of age, suffered a broken leg, the member being terribly mangled, which will necessitate plac­ ing it in a plaster, paris case for s«sae time. Campbell had his right arm broken in two places. The victims were given first aid_by Dr. P. C. Journey, of Turnersburg, and Dr. Glenn Grose, of Hamony, I lS I INVENTION WlLL PERMIT TRANS- MISSION OF SIGNALS DURING DAYLIGfHT Waters Give Up Body. Fayetteville.—After being submerg­ ed in Little River for nearly five months, the body of fames F. Ed­ wards, of Spring Hope, Fort Bragg soldier, who disappeared while on a fishing' party' on November 15, was discovered at a point in the river about 100 yards above Fairley’s store at Manchaster. Edwards, with ttoree other soldiers, went fishing on the river near the power dam beyond Pope Field. He was left in charge of the buckboard in which the party drove to the river, while the other men went up:the stream in a boat. When they returned Edwards was gone and they supposed he had walked back to the camp, until he was reported missing. A diligent search at the time failed to reveal any cause for his disappear­ ance.

Wood, professor of experimental physics at Johns Hopkins university, asserted at a public session of tl^e sixty-ninth meeting of the American Chemical so­ ciety. Infra-red rays, the long light waves which ordinarily produce no color sen­ sation on the eye, can be employed, he explained, in millitary signal lamps for flashing signals which can be seen only by observers using field glasses equipped with a special screen simi­ lar to that in the lamp. “To an. enemy not equipped with like apparatus,” he said, “these rays are invisible. Signals can be trans­ mitted in this manner in: full sun­ light for a distance of from five to eight miles, depending on atmospheric conditions. ' ’ “It has. been found that these rays cause a marked change ia the appear­ ance of objects. An -airplane, for in­ stance, could be painted with enemy insignia, which, however, would not mislead friendly troops equipped with special binocclars by which the true insignia would be visible. A camou- flagued plane would thus bs saved from attack by the anti-aircraft bat­ teries on Its own side. “This property of certain pigments and dyes to alter their relative lumi­ nosity when illuminated by near infra­ red rays is - now being used to pro­ duce stage effects. A drop can be painted so as to represent a summer scene under ordinary light and a win­ ter scene under near infra-red rays.” He then demonstrated how ultra­ violet light, the shorter rays at tb» other end of the spectrum, illuminated a phosphorescent screen at the other end of the room, although the rays themselves were invisible. . Los Angeles Will Fly to Bermuda. Washington.—The dirigible,. Los Angeles, under orders made public at the navy department, will make a second trip flight to Bermuda between April 16 and April 22, and a flight to Porto -Rico between April 27 and May 16. The dirigible has been undergoing repairs for several weeks as a result of injuries to girders'.and-other parts occasioned by splashing of the anti­ freezing mixture during her trip to Bermuda. She will be . tested thor­ oughly between April 10 and 15 before going to Bermuda. On the flight to Porto Rico the Los Angeles is expected to proceed to Mayaguez a'nd vicinity on the west Qoast. It is planned on both flights to have her moor to . the tender, Fatoka, which is expected'to arrive at Ber­ muda about April 15 and go from there to Porto Rico. i Bigger Building Program For Cities. •New York,—A larger volume of new building in most of the leading citie3 of the United States this year is fore­ cast in reports of building permits re­ ceived by R.

Blacksburg, Va. — Fifty Virginia Polytechnid Institute cadets and more than a hundred townsmen left for the scene of a forest fire in the mountains four miles northwest of here where 150 houses and several sawmills are menaced by flames which have raged uncontrolled for four days. While the town Df Blacksburg and Virginia. Polythenic Institute grounds there are not yet threatened, a half dozen'homes and sawmills are in the immediate path of the flre and it is estimated more than 150 buildings oh the side of the mountain will be de­ voured unless the flames are checked. The flames are spreading along a five- or six-mile front and It was feared fresh winds might cause them to sweep across the valley into a wider area and prove, too extensive for lim­ ited equipment and personnel to com­ bat.

I spent three years at the convent, and then I went to a missionary training school, to study medicine, because it had always been my dream to teach the Indian and half-breed children' In this district. And then—” I She stopped and looked at him doubtfully. Father McGrath strode toward them. “He’s gettin’ round ye!” he cried. ' “I can see the softenin’ in your face, Mees PellyJ” “No, no, Father!” cried Joyce , sharply. . “Leave us a few minutes more!”. ’ Father McGrath withdrew, mutter­ ing, after a doubtful glance at her. “And then—and then—I can’t re­ member, Lee,” Joyce continued. "There’s a blank, a terrible blank In- my mind stlil. The^ next thing I re­ member I was riding north alone, to save my ’father, because that devil Rathway had betrayed him. But how was I to save him? That I don’t know. I remember that I was half * crazed with anxiety. I remember see­ ing you at a hotel, and those two dreadful men. “And—they had some power over me; and I wanted you to help me. and dared not ask you—I didn’t know what to do. Once, in my despair, I begged you to kill. Rath way, to save ’my father. But how could that have saved him, when he was already betrayed?” She looked at Lee In anguish. “on, I don’t understand!" she cried. “If I could remember! It was something terrible, something that I could never- go through again.” “Do you think,” asked Lee, “that you had pledged yourself to marry. Kath- way In order to save your father’s life?” * “I—I couldn't have. No, never," Lee!” She_trembled, Lee stepped to her. “Joyce, darling Joyce,, nothing has changed. Tou are still mine.” - "Lee, it can’t be. My father stands between us—will always stand—” ' "Joyce, I’ve been thinking of something on the way here tonight. We both wish . to \ do what is best for your father. Let us work together. Marry me!” ' ft “Lee, It can’t, be—not till—” But she swayed toward hipi. In a . moment they would have been In each other's arms. .It was a bellow .from Father. McGrath, whom they had for-. ’ gotten, that forced-them guiltily, apart “He’s got ’roupd ye, and I kn$w 'twould come abootP’ he cried. “Get y# baek to your de’ll’s wurrk—” - “Oh, Father,” cried Joyce. half sob­ bing,-and half laughing, “this isn’t one of Rathway’s gang. I've tried to tell you—” "Aye, and ye told 'me that ye wouldna see him, and noo ye’d have .bussed him if I hadna stopped ye! Weel, I ken the pertinacity of the de’H’s agents—” "Listen to me, now!” said Lee, tak­ ing Father McGrath by the arm. And, ignoring the good priest’s Impulsive Interruptions, he told him their story. Before he. was half way through, Father McGrath was listening in pro­ found, perplexed astonishment. "Father, I want Joyce to marry me,” cried Lee. “Once she is mine, we can face the future together, whatever it may bring forward. There is no. real antagonism—” Father McGrath shook his head In perplexity. “I eanna understand it," he said. “I ken but little of what’s been happening here. I’m a new'man in the deestrict. It isna as if I’d known Mr. Pelly himself, you see. I canna imagine what Mees PeIly in­ tended to do when she was coming up to see her father. Was it your in­ tention to warm him, do you theenk?” he asked the girl. “Or was it some­ thing more?” Joyce could not answer him, and Lee saw how it distressed her to try to remember. It Was from that crux of the problem that the mind had withdrawn itself, refusing to re­ member. “Te were going to the Free Traders?” Father McGrath perristed. “Oh, I don’t know—I don’t know!” cried Joyce In agony. Father McGrath cleared his throat and delivered his deliberated opinion. “It’s my opeehion,” .he said, “that until we deescover Mr. Pelly, or learn that he’s dead or awa’ fra’ the dees­ trict, it wadna be advisable for ye and Mees Pelly to marry unless her mem­ ory comes back, to her. Mebbe I’m too consairvative, but a while agone she hated ye—” “Father, I never hated him!” cried Joyce indignantly. “And Fm no’ In favor of thest queek changes,” said Father McGrath, Joyce sided with him. "Lee, dear­ est, until one of those two things hap pens, we must just wait,” she said. “But if you find my father—and Tm convinced now that it would be, for the best—well, then, I—I’ll marry you if you want me, Lee." And this time there was no Father McGrath to interfere. with them, for the good priest was patting the head of an Indian baby at the door of one of the huts. And, late though the hour was, Lee declining the father’s offer of hospi­ tality for the night, set off for the log house, again. He wanted to be alone with his singing heart In the silence, He reached bis destination some time In-, the small hours, and, careless of possible attack by the mysterious wanderer, flung himself down In one I He Had No Doubt That Pelly’a Gold Mine Lay in the Chasm-. .of the rooms, and lay like a log until awakened by the sunlight streaming In. Jumping up,' completely rested and restored, he ran down to the river, plunged into the ice-cold waters, raced back over the frozen snow, and dressed. , :v... Joyce was to. remain at the" mission until Lee knew definitely whether or not her father was In- the district. Before leaving the night before, Lee had .drawn the father intp a talk, and had learned from him that she would not be In danger from the Free Trad­ ers. The father had been compelled, he ,said, much against his will, to come to an itaderstaridliig with them, by which hte undertook ;not to Attempt to Interfere Iwitifttheir operations pro­ vided his women and bairns were left alone. The board of m issies was a \ \ • ''' power that the Free Traders were not' anxious to tackle. Father McGrath, hating the necessity oft making terms with Rathway, had felt nevertheless that he was doing the only thing pos­ sible under the circumstances, until the government made a move to wipe out the organization. He assured Lee that Rathway and his men wopid not dare to molest Joyce, and further­ more, that he would protect her with his life if necessary, ft Lee had thought best to say nothing to Joyce about his discovery of the mine, but he meant to make a thor­ ough search of the gorge for Pelly. Failing him, he meant to discover his mysterious assailant, In the belief that he could provide him with the clue he needed. He had no doubt that Pelly’s gold mine lay in the chasm. After having breakfasted he made his way to the rocking stone, and slipped quietly Jnto the tunnel. Striking a match or two, and assuring himself that it was empty, he de­ scended, and within a minute or two had reached the lower orifice, and found himself again clinging to the interior wall of the chasm. Here the artificial excavation of the rungs ended, but there was a fairly easy descent down the lower portion of the cliffs, which afforded plenty of hold for the hands and feet. Lee quickly scrambled down, and, swing­ ing free of the wall, found himself standing at the bottom of the gorge, whose inclining walls shut him off completely from the sight of any one above. Only by standing-Sn the very center of -the defile could he see the summit of the cliffs, with their dense covering of scrub. The base of the chasm was a little wider than he had supposed, perhaps fifty paces across between wall and whll.s Along the center a thin stream trickled over a sandy bed, issuing from one end of the chasm, where it burst out through the granite, carrying with it the debris of the alluvial land above —mud, gravel, and sand. This sandy deposit, carried along by the stream, had been heaped up, probably in times of overflow, against the granite walls, and within the little limestone caves that studded their lower surfaces. Looking about him, Lee saw that some two or three hundred yards from the place where he had'emerged out of the face of the cliff, tbe gorge made a sharp bend, almost at right angle, and here the ground was strewn with a mass of fallen boulders, ranging from huge rocks to small debris. Above it was a gap In the lower sec-, tion of the cliff, from which it had been detached. Lee made his way In this direction. At once he came to the conclusion that dynamite had been the cause of this collapse of part of the surface of the granite wall, which, smooth as a steel lining, coflld have been disrupted by no natural force such as gravity. And then he came upon something that confirmed the obvious deduction. It was a rotting wooden cradle. Beside it lay a rusty, pick. Not far away were two huge iron pans, their bottoins^eaten out with rust, so that they resembled fretwork In steel. Under them were still the ashes and charred residue of the wood that Jiad been used to thaw out the frozen 'earth. AU about among the fallen rocks were mounds, the residue from the pans after the extraction of the gold, now covered with tangles of dead vegetation. There was noNonger any doubt that this was Pelly’s gold mine. Before- making further investiga­ tions here, Lee decided to explore the remainder of the chasm. It-ran on be­ yond the bend for a quarter of a mile, and then came to an abrupt termina­ tion. Without any gradual lessening of the depth it simply ceased, the two cliff wails coming together, in the same way as they did, near the rocking stone at the other end. The chasm was,' In fact, simply an elongated crater. , Returning, Lee made his way to the cave formed by the explosion, if Pelly was In the district, there was hardly any doubt but that he wpuld be hid­ ing in that -.inaccessible; spot, where be would be safe against discovery. It was not unlikely that he was In the cave itself at that moment. • Lee first examined the snow, about the mouth of the cave, for footprints, but he found no tracks except his own.- Drawing his automatic, be advanced into the opening. The sand in the in­ terior bore the marks- of continued trampling, but there were no imprints with clear edges, ) and it was certain , that no one bad bfeen there for a long time. Unfortunately, Lee had brought no candle, but he advanced--some- dis­ tance yithin the cave, lighting his way wlth'matches. However, It was a fore­ gone conclusion that PeUy was. not In there, for the sandy Interior bore nd fresh footprints as far as he went. A faint, distant roaring, as of a waterfall, came to Lee’s ears', and the air was fresh, as if the-cave-were con­ nected with some opening In. the moun­ tain side.' Lee’resolved to explore it another day. But it was dear enough that PeUy was not -In the chasm after all.. Another thing thatfted Lee to that condusion was the fact that no mining operations had been carried on there for a considerable time—long enough- for the pans toThave rusted through. • - If PeIIy had taken refuge within the gorge, it was incredible that be would not have' resumed operations. And these seemed to have been in­ terrupted unexpectedly, to judge from the exposure of the pans to wind and weather. Perplexed and disappointed, Lee turned his thoughts toward the cap­ ture of the man who had attacked him In the tunnel. He could no doubt throw light on Pelly’s whereabouts. Perhaps he was the assistant of whom Joyce had spoken. Lee expected that he would be lurk­ ing in the tunnel, ready to renew his attack, but this time there should be no such fiasco as before.. Lee made his way back on the oppo-. site side of ,the gorge. Here there was a thick growth of dwarfed scrublaurel, which had taken root in the soil brought down by the little stream,,and bordered it, extending back .from it toward the cliff In a sort of miniature jungle. Something protruding out of this growth arrested Lee’s attention. It was a wooden cross carved with the name HELBNE PELLY, standing up above a low cairn of boulders. Lee stood and looked, and vaguely mournful- thoughts coursed .through his mind. It was a sad and lonely burying place for Joyce’s mother. Its existence there was In itself a testi­ mony to the old man’s mental con­ dition—that he should have carried his wife’s body through the tunnel to that place of his dreams. And yet it was certain that no prowling thing would ever violate that grave. Lee went on, and, a few steps fur­ ther, stumbled against something‘else. It was the skeleton of a man, the bones protruding through the rents and tatters of the scarecrow clothes. The laurel tangles sprouted between the ribs. The bones were bleached white, the flesh had long since disappeared. One bony hand still tightly clutched the handle of a large, old-fashioned revolver. The muzzle was choked-with rust; there were rusted cartridges in­ side. Disengaging It with difficulty from the fingers, Lee saw, on the less rusted portion of the handle which they had prbtected, the initials, C. P. ’ But he hardly needed that to know that his mission was at an end, and the last barrier between himself and Joyce overthrown. The problem so Inscrutable--an hour before had been sotved. AU cause for antagonism between them bad come to an end. And Lee was conscious of a quiet satisfaction. It was the happiest solu­ tion, and though Joyce would grieve, she would come to see that It was the best. She would be glad, after the first shock, that her father would not have to face the ordeal which he had dreaded for so many years. But as Lee looked down at the re­ mains of the dead man, he became aware of a single fact.- Nearly every bone on one side of the skeleton was broken—the skull, ribs, arm and leg bones, and pelvis. Then Pelly had not died of a stroke or from a sudden attack of heart fail­ ure. He had fallen from the summit of the cliff above—perhaps he had been flung down, for the revolver which he had been clutching showed that he had either encountered or anticipated an enemy. , —- And, filled with a mixture of emo­ tions—happiness for their future; grief for the news that be must break to Joyce, Lee made his way toward the tunnel. , But all at once he made the singular and unexpected discovery that he did not know where the entrance was. C H A PTER X Il Freed by a L ock o f H air . It seemed to him that it would be-a simple matter enough to ascend the clilf again, and Jie bad not taken the precaution to take note of landmarks. Now, however, he discovered .that the lower third of the granite wall was scored with hundreds of holes and As­ sures where the friable limestone had crumbled away, <jr bad been washed out by the. streams. The entrance to the cliff tunnel was somewhere on that side of the chasm, some-little distance from the bend— but where? Lee stepped back to the brink'of the stream and looked up, trying to locate the rocking stone or monoliths for:-a guide, but the' upper incline of the Cliff hid them from view. It was high noon, ft Lee set himself to the task bbfore him. He looked about him, trying to orientate himself. It wbtfld be necessary- to ascend to a; point about one-fourth the distance up the cliff In order to discover'the Jn-' ■gress, which was no wider than any of numerous cavities in the wall. . Plenty - of places ,along, the, chasm afforded, access, and; Lee grasped a projecting rock whlch seemSd femfllar, and began to ascend, digging his hands und feet Intq tha holea, until he found it impossible ' to proceed , farther. Swinging to the right, he discovered a large cavity and thrust his arm In up to the shoulder. A bitter . disappointment/ awaited him, however, for at the end Ms hand encountered only a smooth sur­ face of rock. - He tried again, as he descended, thrusting his arms jnto all the likely crevice^ In the vain attempt to find the orifice. He' descended, selected another piace and scrambled up the wall again, only to achieve- the same negative result And when he reached the bottom of the cliff again, and looked up at the innumerable crevices, he realized that not only did he not know at which point to begin the ascent, but he did not .know bow high to climb before be reached the level of the tunnel en­ trance. He looked up at the huge.diff, with its Inward incline, and scored ,with Its myriads of mocking mouths, and now a sort of fury took hold of him. Again and again he scrambled up and clung like a fly to the cliff’s face; scrambled down, baffled, and then began once more. It was now the middle of the after­ noon, and he was no nearer a solution. One Bony Hand Still Tightly Clutched the Handle of a Large, Old-fashioned Revolver. He had accomplished nothing. He was becoming bewildered. It was necessary to proceed In a systematic way. He now proceeded to mark off what he considered the possible boundaries within which the tunnel lay, by stamp­ ing down two birch saplings. And again and yet again he essayed his task, always to recoil, beaten. He was only half way from sapling to sapling, and It "was beginning to grow dark. His hands were bleeding, his nails split to the quick. But It was the eerie nature of his efforts in the loneliness of the darkening, gorge that was the most nerve-racking part of all. He was like some mythical hero of the classic world, tortured by inan­ imate things—like Sisyphus, con­ demned to roll his stone up tbe hills of Tartarus forever, only to have it bound down again before it reached tbe summit He had been toiling by poonlight for an infinity of time. He had cov­ ered all the space between the sap­ lings. He extended his radius; and- now, in his desperation, - he attacked the cliff as if it were a human enemy, beating on it with his fists In senseless fury. Dawn, clear and gray, and bitter cold crept into the gorge and found him still at his labors. The sun'rose. Long rays of light streamed down into the chasm, In which Lee struggled like a madman, dust-white, dishevelled, haggard, half-delirious from want of sleep and exhaustion. He stopped, tried to collect himself. But to cease meant to yield to des­ pair. Only by incessant labor could be keep up the pretend that he was about to find the. tunnel.* He felt at the end of bis resources. One con­ clusion was being borne in upon him: he had worked his way far beyond the saplings on either side; he must have passed tbe tunnel during the night. One little orifice unexplored in the., obscurity, and all his work had gone for nothing. He would have to go back to the be­ ginning .and start over again. But no human being could go through the test again. There, occurred to him ah altematlvei but so 'fantastic that he only played with it as a madman plays with a straw. The tunnel might be no longer there. It might have disappeared through a rock slide. That seemed Incredible—Lee put the thought from him ; its very-’ occurrence made him realize that his mind was beginning to wander. And, lapping up some water from the stream, and sprinkling himself with It, he began again—at the farther sapling. ' .

Tampa, Fla.—His efforts to produce a kite superior to that of any of his playmates cost the life of Benjamin Guy Little, eleven years old. Benny appeared before his play­ mates one morning with a kite which he told them was the ''Iast word" in kite making. Ta. his kite, Benny had attached a copper wire. . -As Benny's kite mounted toward the clouds about noon a strong puff of wind carried the kite over some wires. The wire on Benny's kite touched a high-tension electric wire. One flash, and Benny’s clothing was ablaze, the grass around him-was burning and Benny’s mates were fleeing. His body was badly burned. He was rushed to a hospital, but efforts to save his life were futile. Dies of Starvation its Father Seeks Work New York.—Firmo Cellegrino, a blacksmith out of work since -Christ­ mas, visited the Fifth street ' police station recently OnsJin unusual errand. He asked the desk sergeant if the city would not provide free burial for George, one of the Cellegrino twins, three days old. George died at Belle­ vue, where physicians said death was due to the mother'having been under­ nourished. Cellegrino was perplexed. 'It was the other twin, Telio, who had been ill. The twins were born prematurely. When Telio was ailing-they took both babies to the hospital. The father went to Inquire for Telio and was in­ formed that he was still ailing and that George had died. What makes the case still more diffi­ cult for Cellegrino is that there is an­ other baby, Giuseppe, nine months old, at home and nothing in the cupboard. Mrs. Georgians Cellegrino, the mother, is In bed, suffering from lack of food and grief over the' death of lit*le George. Meanwhile there is the burial to at­ tend to. Telio may die any moment. Giuseppe hasn’t any food. Cellegrino is a willing worker, and if there is a job available says he would appreciate the opportunity to earn enough for those surviving and to bury George. Mad Tiger Kills Trainer; ~Killed in Audience Leap Manila.—Crashing through the steel bars that separated it from the girl performer who was putting the animal through Its tricks, a circus tiger at a Manila carnival show instantly killed the young woman. A quick-minded Filipino detective in the audience shot and killed the blood- maddened jungle beast, just as It was leaping from the stage on which it had ended the girl’s'life, into the. midst of the crowded seats encircling the ring­ side. . ' So quickly did the killing occur that circus employees had no opportunity to come to the girl’s rescue. ■- The shot felled the tiger a s ; it hurtled through the air^ toward the audience and quelied-the panic which had started. ^ Grabs Rope in Midair A f t e r F a l l V u t o f W i n d o w Lawton, Okla.—B.

Cave City, Ky.—Rapidly digging and cribbing their way from the 47 foot level to the bottom of the original 55- foot shaft, then through a winding 25- toot lateral, workmen led by W. H. Hunt, miner, again came upon the body of Floyd Collins, cave explorer, who died after 17 days entombment in Sand Cave when trapped by a rock fall. Faster progress was made than had been anticipated, officials in charge of the work said, because the concrete which was poured in the lateral and which was intended to seal Collins in his natural tomb had not hardened even though it had been there nearly two months. The damp condition of the cavernous recesses would not per­ mit the cement to harden, miners ex­ plained. Hunt said he expected to have the body to the surface by Tuesday or Wednesday. He said it would be ne­ cessary to further extend the lateral entirely around the huge rock which pins Collins by his feet... It also will be necessary to crib the excavation entirely around the rock, he said, es­ timating the distance to be 10 feet. This done, Hunt said if no other method would permit the lifting of the mammoth rock from' the body, the rock would be dynamited, small charges being used until the rock was chipped away sufficiently to permit its lifting and recovery of the body. -Stockton, Cal, — Homer . Collins, brother of Floyd Collins,, at present Hn this city, when notified that W. H. Hunt, a miner, had reached within a few feet of -his brother's body, said: - “That's good news. I have been paying Hunt to dig for the body of Floyd so that it could be moved to the crystal cave he discovered. I ex­ pect to return home to Cave City as soon as I have enough money to pay Hunt for his work, which will be in a few weeks more and then I will see that a suitable monument is erected for Floyd in front of the crystal cave and'the casket-enclosed In a steel box. Guard Maiittained at Mansion. Cheyenne, Wyo.—Armed guards are maintaining a nightly watch over the Wyoming gubernatorial mansion that houses Governor Nellie Taylor Ross, it became known. No reason for the patrol was made known, although it was learned that county officials had made inquiries re­ garding the identity and-character of persons living in the vicinity of the mansion. Governor Eoss refused to comment on the situation other than to inti­ mate that such precautions had not been taken at her request. / It was learned that the mansion had beea guarded for several nights by agents of the state prohibition enforce­ ment department. The guards are reported to be not only seeking the identity and inquir­ ing into the character of nearby resi­ dents, but also occupy part of their time by prying into ash cans and look­ ing under culverts as though search­ ing for concealed objects.

Wilmington, — Asserting that he fears a commutation of the death sen­ tence imposed by him on C. W. Stewart and his son, Elmer, for the murder of Sergeant Leon George and Marshal Sam Lily last July would “work a re-assurance to the criminal classes, and might add to the grow­ ing conviction that no man can be punished for his crimes if he is able to pay,” Judge H. A. Grady has'written Governor A. W. McLean, strongly op­ posing any executive clemency to­ ward the defendants.

COMFORTABLE HENS ALWAYS LAY WELL Do everything you can to make !your hens comfortable. If their health and vitality are kept at the highest Ifevel, it will add many eggs ;to your basket. If your hens are worried by Uce and mites,, then they cannot lay the maximum number of eggs. An ounce of prevention just now is worth a pound of cure later on. !This is good poultry gospel, accord­ ing to D. H. Hall, extension poultry specialist, who wards us that with the warm weather coming on we will have more trouble with lice and mites than we had during the cooler months, and that everybody should take extra pre­ caution at thiB time of the year to get rid of these parasites. Mites can be controlled by spray­ ing the house with whitewash to which has been added enough dis­ infectant to make a 5 per cent solu­ tion. A good coal-tar product, such as creosote or taroleum, may be used as a disinfectant.- Carbolic acid is also good. . In spraying the house be sure to spray every square inch of surface. If you miss a few mites, then you will have a multitude to deal with the following week. It is also a good Idea to paint the perch poles with a mixture of equal parts of kero­ sene and used engine-oil. Lice are found on the individual hens. They spend their entire life on the body, laying their eggs and sticking them to the feathers In small colonies, khey can be found In the fluff feathers and under the wings. No hen will go about her business of producing eggs with any degree of efficiency with lice covering her body. The best method of getting rid of lice is by dusting with a good Insect pow­ der. Sodium fluoride is a good para­ site killer. Take a pinch of sodium fluoride and dust it into the fluff feathers, under each wing, on the neck, back and body of the fowl. Work the powder down into the feath­ ers to the skin. Anotiier good powder can be made from one pound of snuff and one-half pound of sulphur mixed with one gallon of road dust or ashes. It is a gqpd idea to build a dust box and allow each hen to dust herself. Look over the hens in about ten days to see if all the lice were killed, and if necessary give them another good dusting. Feed Poultry With Eyes Open and Watch Closely Experience counts with poultry, de­ clared poultrymen at the New Xork State College of Agriculture at Ithaca. They say it is easy to tell how it should be done, but that it is a dif­ ferent matter to do it, and that doing it over and over again with one’s eyes open is the way to gain the knowledge that makes poultry pay. Immature and undersized pullets are often the cause of low egg production in many flocks, say men at the state college. And some poultrymen, they say, try to make themselves believe that they have a flock of good-sized pullets by weighing the largest ones. The only persons they fool are them­ selves, and that to no avail. A pullet which is undersized or im­ mature will not lay enough to be pro­ fitable. ' AntI what one man considers a small pullet may be considered large enough by another mam It is not wholly a matter of opinion, however, as there are standards of weight which are about right for egg produc­ tion. The time chicks should be hatched depends on the man who is going to do the feeding. Chicks may mature much earlier under the care of one man than under that of another. The general- rule should be followed of ,maturing the pullets so that they will come into laying In the early, winter months when egg prices are highest As with every other kind of live stock, eternal vigilance is the price of success, and the poultryman who makes a profit is the' one who “cares” for his flock In both senses of the word. Chicken Production of Last Year Very Heavy Some 678,300,000 chickens were pro­ duced in the United States last, year, which was 29,400,000 more than In 1923, according to estimates' just re­ leased, by the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture. Despite this increased production there were on farms January I, 1925, approximately 427,000,000 chickens as compared with 470,300,000 on January I, 1924. The decrease In stocks on hand Jan­ uary I Is attributed to increased con­ sumption, and to larger stocks going Into storage. - Total stocks of frozen poultry in storage February I were reported at 133.253.000 pounds compared with 99,- 486.000 pounds February I a year ago. Tankagei for Breeders It. is customary to include In the ra­ tion for laying hens tankage or meat Bcrap, and it is usually mixed in with mill feeds to form a dry mash which Is available to the birds at all times. Where the eggs are to be used for (batching it is not advisable to make the proportion of tankage more than 10 to 15 per cent Where milk is available it can take the place of the tankage In the mash, three gallons of milk a - day for each 100 hens being etulualeat ; •- . • t • .‘. ' J. > ■.. .’ "... V Troable end Never Suspect It A p p licantsforD isurance O ftenR ejected .. . Judging • from reporjta ^ from druggists .who are constantly in .direct touch withi the public, there is one preparation that has been very - successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr. Kilmer's 'Swamp-Eoot Ie' soon realized. It stands the highest fpr its remarkable record of success. An OTfttntning physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview of the Bubject, made the as­ tonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are re­ jected is because kidney trouble is so common to the Ameridin people, and the large majority of those whose applica­ tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. Dr. KiImerrB Swamp-Eoot is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, medium and large.- However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.

First Salt Made in 1791 Louisiana has for years been a source of salt in the United States, the first crude refining having been' done on a small scale in 1791 from the salt water springs in that state. The Indians found their salt in. this way, however, long before the advent of the white man. In 1812 a more suc­ cessful method was worked out. In 1862, under the direction of pioneer troops of the Confederate army, rock salt was discovered at Avery island, just Slo feet beneath the surface of the ground. - Constipation generally indicates disordered stomach, liver and bowels.

A., took an active interest in church work, and held the esteem and con fideuce of bis employers. He drove away in a new automobile that he had purchased This particular case reached the public through the newspapers, be­ cause the bank promptly made the facts known. * There are scores of just such cases, however, occuring every week in Georgia and in other states of the union; that do not reach the public tor the reason that the em­ ployers, for business purposes or to save further embarassment to in­ nocent members of the families, do not let the facts become-'public,' , It is stated by competent survey­ ors of crimes of this nature that at 110 period iu the history of this country has there been such a re cord of peculations as since the be­ ginning of post war reconstruction and business readjustments. Through business and industrial conditions have become almost nor­ mal, the situation as to money crimes not only has not improved but obviously is getting worse. There is just one explanation — living beyond the income. The "joy ride” begun'just after the war when money flowed plenti­ fully and the reaction from the strain and str.ess.of. that period culminate •Cd in an unhead of human reckless­ ness and abondou, has been ,con­ tinued, and is being continued. It is a period of jazz, of wild ex­ travagance in personal expenses— and extravagances that are too of­ ten met bv thievery. There are meu in every city, who are driving automobiles aud indulg­ ing in other luxuries that dost them more than their salary for a year. Expenses pile up; debts pile up sometimes in a At of despondency a pistol shot stops the worry. More often they begin to steal from their employers. It is uot Confined to men, young or old. Many women, who cannot afford it, are wearing silk - hosie y. They spurn the cheaper cotton goods.- Many are dressing beyoud their means They must have cost­ ly raimfentand indulge in luxuries that a moderate salary cannot pos­ sibly meet. The public seldom hears of these cares, but there is scarcely a busi­ ness coucern of any magnitude that does not encounter such cases every week in its own affairs. There must must be a show down a restraining force somehow and somewhere. Thousands of young people who are stealing today in one way or another, perhaps of a pretty nature most of them, are not instinctively crooks. At heart they are honest. But the jazz life they fall into demands money. -They take the chance rather than slow down to the old time conservatism of the fathers. They prefer to steal rather than to sacrifice aud economize. But there is no way to make it pay—no way to "put it over.” SoOner of later the emploj ee who takes that, which does not belong t'o him—However small or however great—will be caught in his dis- hpnonesty.

A few years ago we heard a great deal of talk about the wonnerful things that would happen when the women got to voting. Up to this time we must say that we have not been geatly impressed with the re suit, of woman’s suffrage. Many women do not vote at all and a great manyjif those.who do exercise the privelege do not show any improve, ment over the men. For instance Women are supposed to take a great deal of interest in education because of their relationship with children but do they? In the recent school bond election here in Beaufort more men than women voted It is true some of the women worked hard for the bond issue but many were utter­ ly Indifferent and a good many were violently, opposed to it. Ladies you will have to do better or the n s' thing you know somebody is going to sav. that woman’s suffrage is a failure.—Ex. . Mode! For the College Man. Charlotte Observer. Attorney General Sargent appears to be a plain-spoker man one of dir­ ectness.in expression. He could not be present at the annual class ban­ quet of Tufts College, but he sent a letter to be read. In the letter he gave hjs ideas as to what the .aims and duties of a college man should be. This is what he advised: "The One thought and ambitiion of every college man should be to be a public official without wrong, a neighbor a reproach, a Christian without hy pocricy, a man without guile, sub­ missive to law, obedience to authori ty,-thoughtful, kind, and above all loyalty to his country and to him­ self ” Mr. .Sargent elaborated to some extent, but the Observer be­ lieves the brief summary ot' the re quiremente of the modern college man has best effect when left to stand by himself Mr. Sargent at leasthasoutiined the requisites to good and acceptable citizenship. The college man who sets out with de­ termination to live up to the ideals placed before him by t.he Attorney General, is destined- to attain high marks in attainment of the things worth While .

Clement, who is a candidate for mayor, tells The Re cord man that he is in favor of econ my, but that be believes that the lights on the square should all burn at night. Lots of people believe the same thing. The Record doesn't think it is economy to burn only eight of the white way lights at night, instead of all twelve. Neither does The Record think it is economy to burn these eight lights all day long, es pecially when the sun shines bright as it did Easter Monday. There will be.no Republican municipal ticket in the field this spring. The Republicans will help to elect a set of good men for the various town offices if good men are nominated. Otherwise the Re publicans will stay from the polls, .or that is what they tell us. We have heard nothing of a ticket that is to be put in the field for the purpose of havine the Sunday blue law repealed. Of course the law is worthless but some folks seem to be having pipe dreams You cannot legislate goodness into folks who w int to be bad. This thing ha? been tried many times and failed. The Democrats in Mocksville and some of the few Republicans who are here are wanting to know what it it costing to run the town. They want Io know the salaries that are being paid the varies town officers. The town board should issue an annual statement giving receipts and disbursements. This would prevent a lot of talk. The sheriff savs he .is going to settle with the county, commission­ ers for the 1924 taxes 011 the first Monday in May. This means that everybody pays their taxes this month—rich and poor, white and black. If you have anything left after paying your taxes it would be a good idea to pay your preacher and editor so they can pay their taxec. The Mocksville Sunday blue law is a blessing to the cafe men for this law does not prohibit the sale of drinks on Sunday—it only forces the fellow who wants a dozen cold drinks to invest in a few sand wiches. So far as we have been able to observe a man can buy all the drinks he wants, all tile gas he needs and many other things here on Sunday. Whipping the devil a- round the stump is a delightful pastiuie these days. If you have not registered you cannot vote in May. Better see that your name is on the local re­ gistration books. Voting in coun ty elections does not qualify you to vote in the town election. The re­ gistration books are now open but not a town officer has asked The Record to say a word about regist­ ering or voting. It seems that the election notices should have ap­ peared in all the papers. Partisan politics hasn't gone to seed around here. Will Mo?e To Lenoir. Dr. E. P. Crawford, who came to Mocksville twelve years ago and purchased what is now Craw­ ford’s Drug Store, has purchased the Lenoir D u ; Store, the lead­ ing drug store in that hustling moun’ain town, and will take charge of it as soon as he can dis­ pose of his interests here. Dr. Craw ford and family have made manv friends since coming to Mocksville, and the entire town will be sorry to lose them. Dr. Crawford represent­ ed Davie county in the last legisla­ ture. He took much interest in the growth and development of the town and county and has always been a firm believer iu every pro­ gressive movement. Mr. Thomas Allen Dead.

Chapman.) ■ Wrs u Service; body, that Lee was shocked at the sight of it It was only a man—but such a man! A gorilla, all but the human face. Lee had already pulled the trigger a third time, but there was no third shot. Then he remembered that he had had only two cartridges remaining, He was unarmed. He sprang', and a stone struck him in the chest and hurled him backward. Like two baboons they bombarded each other with stones; but at last, as a fortunate shot sent the other staggering, Lee managed to close with him. The face, bruised and battered from the encounter In the tunuel, looked impassively into his. Lee struck, and quickly discovered that he had not strength enough left to administer a knockout blow; while at close quarters he was decidedly at a disadvantage. On the other hand his opponent was equally unable to overcome him, for he .could not stand up against Lee's fists at short range long enough to allow him time to get the gripping power of those shoulders Into action. At last, bleeding and braised, they broke off the fight simultaneously, and lay side by side, panting, upon the bot­ tom o' the' gorge. Lee look stock of the other. The man looked like an Indian, but there was a touch of the Caucasian In him. Lee ^addressed him for the first time. “What Is It that you want? Why have you attacked, me?” . The answer—Lee had hardly ex­ pected that there would be an an­ swer—was in a tone singularly soft, in­ credibly at variance with the appear­ ance of that gross body. “Ton find the way In. But you never find the way out. You fight me and I fight you. Tou sit down here so and I sit down here beside you so. When you fight I fight, and when you stop I stop, and so we wait until you sleep. And then *le grand mort’ come.” This devilish conception made Lee’s blood run cold. For even now his eye­ lids were drooping—drooping, and the Other watched with cunning eyes. He tried to find strength to leap, rend him with teeth and. nails if his bruised fists and 'weakened arms failed him. But the other, reading what passed in his mind, crouched, ready for. him. Lee shot an arrow at a venture. “Le- boeuf!” he said softly. The other started. ‘ ‘‘Eh, you have learn my name? That makes no dif­ ference.” ‘‘Why do you wish to kill me, Le- boeuf? Is it that you think I have come here to seize the. mine?” “Listen, then. I swore to my master before he died that no one shall take the gold away. Therefore, since you have found the way into the tunnel, you shall never leave It.” “Suppose I am a friend?” “No, no friend. Tou have come for the gold. You came to seize my mas­ ter, who is dead, to take his gold away. There he lies dead and he has come to me In dreams and told me he must not be buried till Ma’m’zelle Joyce has got the gold. Al, you shall never have his gold.” "Listen, Leboeuf I Miss Joyce and I. love each other—” “No, no, you are lying, and, besides, it would make no difference. Did I not hear her In the house, telling yon, ‘Go! Go!’ No, you shall never take her gold.” Lee desisted from sheer weariness. He strove desperately in his mind, trying to find some way by which he could convince this madman—but his eyelids Closed, and suddenly, with a snarl, Leboeuf was upon him, his fin­ gers twining around Ws throat Lee shook himself free. He sprang at him, the last of his waning strength put forth. They clinched, they fought, Lee’s fists beat against the bruised face, drawing fresh blood. Leboeuf released him, but springing to a dis­ tance, began hurling stones at him, cursing him. Then he sat down and waited. Lee must stay awake till nightfall. He would find some way out of the gorge. He would cut footsteps In the granite with a stone—wild and impos­ sible thoughts ran through his mind. He strode-to and fro beside the river bank. Some little distance away Leboeuf sat watching him. Lee’s ■ hatred for that bruised, impassive face was ele­ mental. He flung a stone. The aim was true: It cut Leboenf’s lip open. Blood began to drip, but Leboeuf never stirred. Lee sat down. He must conserve his strength—he started up. He had slept for a moment, and Leboeuf was creeping toward him. The sun blazed over the edge of the gorge,. _. L e b o e u f squatted down nearer Lee, watching him as a vulture might watch * X b ^ e n t liater Leboeuf W » g > at his side, yet he was not conscious of his having moved, or of having Clos^ his eyes. He got up wear Ily picked up a stone, and flung it In Leboeufs face, gashing his cheek. Leboeuf never -moved. U n looked about him for a larger StHerwas lying upon his back, and Le- S S sa£«s£swiry fingers ripped the tatters 01 shirt away. Next moment'' a cry broke' from Le- b oeufs. lips.1 He was fingering' the colls’ of Joyce’s hair. He 'khew th’em, perhaps by ttie faitft odor o fh6r ^thaf citing to them. ' 1 ‘ He fell upon his knees. “Monsieur, It is hers! Forgive! Forgive! I am an old fool! So.among my people the maidens give their hair as tokens of love! Ah, Monsieur, Monsieur—see, I will show you the entrance, and you shall take the gold for her. So my master spoke In a dream—but I did not know you!” And, darting frpm Lee’s Bide, he scramblttd straight up the face of the cliff between the saplings. He dragged away a stone, fitting so closely into the tunnel’s mouth that Lee had never guessed it had been placed there. And, with a mournful cry, Leboeuf disappeared within the tunnel. Lee staggered to the cliff beneath it, tried to ascend, dropped back, and in a moment was fast asleep upon the bottom of the gorge. CHAPTER XIII And on the Day After Tomorrow Lee slept the dock around, for, when he awoke, refreshed and restored, ex­ cept for his bruised and blistered hands, the sun was in the same part of the sky as when he had gone to sleep. For a few moments the memory of that grotesque struggle seemed like something that he had read In a book. Then, bit by bit, it began to become a part of memory’s records. But It was not until, looking up, he saw the entrance to the tunnel plainly visible In the cliff overhead, that he realized the whole episode had not been a disordered dream, bom of his frantic,.futile struggles. And even then Lee could not con­ vince himself until he had gone back to Felly’s skeleton and ascertained that It was really there, and looked at the Initials on the butt of the re­ volver, and stood beside the little grave. Then, very painfully, for his hands were skinned and raw, Lee clambered up the cliff and made his way through And There In the Entrance Joyce Was Standing, Watching Them—and Him, Approaching. the tunnel. He did not think he would ever want to visit Pelly’s . gold mine again. He had suspected all the while that the. mine was a myth, and even now he was not convinced that there was gold In It But joy was In his heart, joy over­ flowing, for all his troubles were- at an end. He was going to Joyce, to make her his wife, to take her away. And his heart thumped at the antic­ ipation of that incredible dream, and he trod the trail toward the log house like a boy. He broke his long fast with a moderate meal and started for the mission. As he went up the ascent a mob of half-breed and In­ dian children came pouring out of the schoolhouse. And there In the en­ trance JOyce was standing, watching them—and him, approaching. She looked up at him gravely as he drew near, and she knew at once from .the look on his face enough to make the breaking of the news less of a shock ,to her. But the tears rolled down her cheeks as he told her of her father’s death. “Joyce, darling, I can’t help feeling that it’s the best thing—In the end,” said Lee. “At least his sufferings are at an end.” “I think so, too, tee,” she answered calmly. “And now I know that—some­ how—I have always known my father was no longer alive. The bond be­ tween us was very close, though Iw as away from him so many years.” Lee told her about the discovery of the mine and his encounter with Le- boeuf, slurring over the story of the Indian’^ attack on him. Then Joyce caught sight of his hands, and .pas all sympathy and. dismay, and took;; him Into a hut and' bathed them.- and ban­ daged them. • ' ' Father McGrath had gonie to visit, an old Indian in the neighborhood, and the two talked a long time, and then ate a simple meal together In the pret- ,esce ipf the children,; ^rhitt; stared at !tee over their soup dishes out of their ;targe,.black eyes.: :• S. :; .*It is strangle^ [the'mine beiiig so near ,the' house;’? Joyce -s a id .“Ton know Mother and I were never quite con­ vinced that, there was a mine. We were never quite sure that my father !hadn't a delusion on that subject, and that fceboeuf, who waa devoted to Klin, wasn’t humoring him. . ;.. . * ‘‘Old Leboeuf must have been living there for a long time. He had some grudge against Bathway, you know. He would have killed him once, if my father . hadn’t intervened.” She reverted to her father’s death, and Lee was reluctantly compelled to give her the particulars. “He may have suffered a stroke and have fallen over the cliff,” he said. “At any rate, his death was instan­ taneous, You may be sure he did not suffer.” It was when he spoke of his dis­ covery of her mother’s grave that Joyce showed signs of breaking down. “She was ill such a long time," she said. “She was paralyzed, and there was nothing that could be done for her. When she died my father and Leboeuf carried her body away into the forest by night They wonld never tell me where she had been burled, and I remember I used to prowl about the house, always hoping to discover her grave. I suppose that was a part of my father's madness, In a way. He wanted,her to be near him where he was working.”, It was after dinner that Lee opened the subject nearest to his heart. “Dear, you know what I want to a9k,” he said. “Will you let me take you south with me before the snows? And will you let Father McGrath marry us before we start?” “Oh, Lee—when?” she asked. “Today, dearest." “Oh. not today, Lee!” “Tomorrow, then? And we’ll spend our honeymoon In the log house, just for a day or two of happiness together before taking up the trail. I know It will always be your home, Joyce, and that we shall often come back here, now that the unhappiness of the past is over.” “Wait, Lee!” Joyce was wrinkling her forehead in that manner that always distressed him so much. “I want to ask you something.: Have you really told me everything—from the time when I had my fall from th§ horse until I awakened In the forest with you? Or have you—hidden something from me—out of consideration for me?” “Why do you asK that, dear?” “Because I—I feel that you have, Lee. I don’t know why. It’s Just an instinct I have. And if there is some­ thing more, I should Uke to be told, because—because I have a feeling that it may help me to recover that part of my life that ls' still a blank to me.” Lee felt In a quandary. It was Im­ possible to wish to keep anything from Joyce; and yet he felt that she ought never to know the incidents of that day and night at Slston lake. “If you don’t want to tell me, deaF—’'* Joyce went on. Lee had to tell her then, and did, minimizing the affair in all but its essentials. He said nothing about his fight with the Free'Traders, but told her bow she. had been kidnaped by the two men and taken to Bathway’s camp, and how, In the absence of the band, he had rescued her. “And you say I was unconscious all that time?” asked Joyce. “I wish I could understand it, and I wish I could remember. It seems so strange that part of my memory should come back to me, and not all of It Who were those men and what did they want of me? Were they Bathway’s men? And what did he want?” “I think the explanation is simple, dear,” Lee answered. “Bathway wants the secret of your father's mine. In some way he must have learned that you were coming back to the range. He sent his men to Intercept you. They probably told you that Bathway had your father In Uis power, and that Is why you proposed to accompany them, and why you didn’t want me.” “Not want you, Lee? I wanted you from the first minute I saw you. I1U tell you a secret, shall I? Weil—I—I fell In love with you that evening In the hotel, and I’ve been In-love with you ever since. There! “But why was I riding In the range?” she resumed. “What was it on my mind so terrible that there seems a sort of blackness there? I felt that you could save me.” She shook her head. “No, there’s more to It than that, my dear. And—I don’t know—perhaps I shaU never know.” Lee slipped his arm about her. “Joyce, dear, don’t try to think. It doesn’t matter. Nothing Is going to matter any more. You are no longer the unknown girl, traveling alone through a wilderness, whose disap­ pearance would arouse no suspicions. Once you are my wife, BathWay can-* not harm you. And then. you have Father McGr^h behind you, and the church that he represents, and the mis­ sionary societies behind that; Bath­ way’s not fool enough to buck a power­ ful organization by any crime—his cue 18 to lie low and sell all the liquor he can before we put him out of busi­ ness. Tell me you’ll marry me soon.” “But the mine, Lee? And poor Le- boeuf?” “We'U look into those matters dur­ ing. our little honeymoon. Tell me that It shall be tomorrow.” Joyce hesitated; and while she hesi­ tated they heard the tinkle of . bells, and Father McGrath 'appeared in his horse sleigh, .coming up the hill. They went to the door. The jolly ,priest waved his hand and pulled In. “Well, Meestalr Anderson, and so ye’re back again!” he cried heartily, gripping Lee’s hand with a fist of Jwa, wxig harrd goto* wl' the horse through the snow,- «s> I- n d tn TD have to tak’ to the dogs mighty soon.

Lee^ an­ swered, and -with that narrated Ms, adventures In. the mine. - “And Miss Pelly has promised to marry me tomorrow,” he ended men­ daciously. • “N—not tomorrow, Lee,” said Joyce. And Father McGrath, who had been listening to Lee's story with manjr ejaculations, looked so severe that Lee had a sudden terror that he would re­ fuse to perform the ceremony. “The day after, then, Joyce?” Lee pleaded. Joyce Interposed no veto this time, but was blushing like a rose and look­ ing adorably cdnfused. “Weel—” began the father. “Weel, Fni not In favor of’ such queeckness. HaVe you two young folks conseedered the consequences of matreemony, the awful and Inevitable consequences? Have ye thocht o’ the horror o’ sitting doon opposite each ither at the break­ fast table inomln’ after mornin' for the rest o’ your lives togither? Have ye thocht o’ the stunning responsibili­ ties of the married state?” Lee was beginning to grow alarmed, but of a sudden he discerned a twinkle in the worthy father’s eyes. And sud­ denly Father McGrath smote Lee vio­ lently upon the back. “I’ll do It, mon!" he shouted. ‘TH do It. VIMs the one practical Joke that is permeeslble to a meenlster. I be­ lieve In m'atreemony. ’Tis the grand­ est o’ the deespensatlons of Our Lord on alrth!

And It’ll no be so vairy long, marrk ye, before they’re coming to me wl’ their grievances. “ ‘Oo, Father, my wife does this and wilna do that,’and she wllna obey nor honor me, as she’s sworn to do, and Tm no sure she loves me.’ And lt*s ‘Oo, Father, my mon’s got a temper like the de’U hlsself, and the jealousy o’ the grrand Turk.’ “Then I speak to them verra soft. *My dear mon, and my dear wumman.1 I say, ‘ye’re balth caught fast, and what’s done canna be undone.

And wl’ that they go oft, arrm In arrm together.” “I hope you haven’t Miss Pelly and myself In mind, Father,” said Lee, laughing. ‘Tm willing to step Into your trap tomorrow, and I’m more willing to step into it this minute.” Father McGrath looked- at them quizzically. “Weel, we’ll just say the day after tomorrow, Anderson,” he said. “For ye ken, Anderson, a wum­ man wants a leetle time to picture her­ self a bride In her mind’s eye before she becomes one." “Apd so they are married and live happily ever afterward." Not at all. With their marriage their troubles begin again. (IO B E CONTINUED.)

They threw them* selves on the bayonets, and used their spears In the death agony before the bayonets could be withdrawn.

New York.—Uncle Gam’s rum chas­ ing forces added $250,000 to the value of recent liquor seizures in this vicihl ity,- with the capture of the two-mast- ed British 95-ton auxiliary schooner, Madeline Adams, 20 miles off the coast. There was some mystery about the capture of the trim little craft, which had in her hold 3.700 eases of assort­ ed liquors, Including champaignes, in addition to 100 barrels of alcohol on her decks. Captain W. E. V. Jacobs, commandant of the New York division of the coast guard, assured question­ ers that the schooner was taken “20 miles off Fire Island,” but the fact that the -coast guard cutter Seminole spent 12 hours in the chase lent color to reports that the pursuit took the speedy government boat from 150 to 200 miles out to’sea, and that a num­ ber of shots were laid across the fugitive’s bows before the capture. Captain Jacobs said two of the schooner’s crew had sought to bribe the crew of the government’s rum chaser, C G 203, to take 500 cases of whiskey aboard last Saturday. The government men pretended to accede to the proposal, Captain Jacobs relat­ ed, and piled the contraband on the boat’s decks, only to discharge the cargo at the United States barge of fice at the battery and place the two men under arrest. ., It was then that Captain Jacobs said he broadcast orders to'all his chasers to “get the Madeline Adams if you have to chase her to the British three mile .limit.” The Seminole was the first to sight the Madeline Adams, on Rum Row. The chase began. Reports of subse­ quent occurrences do not agree. Cap­ tain Jacobs insisting .that the chase never gat very for off the coast. He admitted, however, that the Seminole wee I2 hours at the job. Try to Murder Bulgarian King. Sofia, Bulgaria.—King Boris nar­ rowly escaped assassination. His car, in which he was traveling to Sofia, was ambushed by a band of supposed communists. Two of the king’s at­ tendants were killed and the driver was wounded. The king was not hit. Troops are in search of the king’s as­ sailants. . Sofia.—General Gheorghieff, former noted army leader; was assassinated. He had retired from the army and was a deputy. He took a prominent part in the movement to overthrow the Samboulisky government in 1923. King Boris, of Bulgaria, has for sev­ eral months been taking active part in the efforts to suppress the long series of disturbances which have developed into a national crisis, Numerous assassinations have oc­ curred. In February, last, Nicola Mi- Ieff,. minister designate to the United States, was shot down in the streets of Sofia. The communist deputy, H. S. Toyanoff was assassinated on March 6, in the same city. He was the third deputy muTdered within a month. The Bulgarian government has sev­ eral times denied there was any revo­ lution or any attempt to revolution in Sofia, but at the same time commun­ ists and anarchists have been particu­ larly active and within the last few days the Uuthoi-uJes have seized docu­ ments,: which were reported to prove that an armed revolt was planned for this spring: See Woman Plunge to Death.'

Atlanta, Ga.—Augustus Lukeman, New York, whose appointment as. sculptor to complete the Stone Moun­ tain Confederate memorial, has agreed to begin work immediately on models to be used in his work. A contract with Lukeman was con­ firmed by the directors of the Stone Mountain Monumental association, after they had voted against a motion to postpone consideration 10 days. The contract previously had been ap­ proved by the association’s executive committee. “Mr. Lukeman has agreed to go to work at once upon his model for the centrai group and his plans for the memorial hall,, which when finished will be submitted to the association for approval,” said an announcement by the executive committee. “Also he has given his assurance that he will devote himself to the Stone Mountain memorial until it is completed.’’ ■Selection of the New York sculptor, who formerly resided in Virginia, fol­ lowed the dismissal of Gntzon Borg- Ium as directing sculptor of the me­ morial several weeks ago. The ex­ ecutive committee charged that Borg- Ium had not met the terms of his con­ tract with the association. Borglum declared the executive committee had not met the contract provisions. BorgIum destroyed his models and fled from the state. Later, he was arrested on charges of malicious mis­ chief and larceny from the house. He was held at Greensboro, N. C., but the state withdrew requisition papers which had been issued for him. Many charges and counter charges were exchanged between the sculptor and the committee during the contro­ versy. The executive committee, in its an­ nual report, said Lukeman had been highly recommended to it and that the selection was made from a list containing the names of a number of prominent artists who were available for the work.

These three she killed because she loved them best, the mother told authorities. She spar­ ed Mae, 19, surviving daughter, be­ cause she disliked her, she said. Mrs. Cunningham denied that she had poisoned her husband who died first, or Harry, another son, in whose exhumed body Coroner’s Chemists found arsenic.. She admitted giving poison to David, the last son, In a critical condition in a Chicago -hos­ pital. Each time she administered the arsenic in bread and butter she took a similar dose herself, and after the death* of W alter she added a teaspoon­ ful of iodine, but always recovered. The confession of the woman, who had remained unshaken under the questioning in Chicago of Prosecutors Robert E. Crowe and John S. Scar- boro, who had obtained admissions of guilt from Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, kidnappers-slayers .of Robert Franks, was obtained by Sher­ iff Benjamin. H. Strong and Miss Mau­ reen McKernan.

We have found that the short wave lengths to which amateurs were re-, strictel seem to penetrate the sunlight better than the long waves which are In professional use. Hitherto 180 meters has been considered fairly short; we shall use 20 and 40 meter lengths. For a long time they' were used only at night.

FARM' POULTRY CONTROL OF ROUP ' BY SANITARY RULES Contafious roup is probably caused bT unsanitary conditions of the hen- biase and yards. It is aggravated by cold, damp weather. Correction of the causes, so far as possible, is most advisable, as remedies are slow work­ ing and not sure In effect It causes a loss, not only from a heavy death rate, but also from the interference with egg production and weakened vitality in breeding. It is very contagious, especially In damp, cold weather, and attacks both young and old stock. Contagious roup is probably easier to identify than any other poultry dis­ ease. It usually starts like a simple cold, with a thin, watery discharge from the nose and eyes. This secre­ tion has a peculiar, offensive odor. Inflnnmiation sets into the nasal pas­ sages, eyes and spaces just below the eyeballs. The birds then often cough and sneeze, breathing becomes noisy, and If the air passages of the nose become entirely blocked, they' breathe through their mouths. The birds soon lose tlieir appetite and become de­ pressed, their wings' drooping and their feathers ruffled. The secretions from the nose and eye change from fluid to a yellowish, cheese-like mass. This grows rapidly about the eyelids nnd the nostrils. One or both eyes become enlarged and swelling may ap­ pear on the head. The exact cause Is not known. Vhatever it is, the organism is hard to felU, because it penetrates into the tissues. If the formations about the head are removed, the uneven bleeding surface which is left forms a new mass in 24 to 48 hours. Infected birds carry the disease from place to place and infect others by contact. Food and water may be­ come contaminated by the secretions from sick birds and healthy birds be­ come infected in this way. Roup is easily controlled by proper management and housing. Damp, un­ sanitary, poorly ventilated,, over­ crowded, drafty' quarters are con­ ducive to its spread. The first treat­ ment is to remove the cause at once. Only valuable birds should have indi­ vidual treatment A simple cure for the sick bird is as follows: Place it In a dry, well-ventilated place away from the other birds, and give it plen­ ty of fresh water and feed. Every morning and evening remove all the matter from .the eyes and nostrils of the bird and dip its head into a solu­ tion of bichloride of mercury (1-1000). This is made by placing one 7.3 mer- cnry bichloride tablet In a pint of water. Hold the bird firmly and im­ merse the head until the eyes are cov­ ered, keeping it there a few seconds- or until it struggles. In most cases, the following procedure is advisable I Dispose of bad cases by killing and burning them. Isolate birds having colds. Be sure quarters are dry and tight on all sides, with adequate opening In the front for ventilation and light to reach every part of the house. Allow at least three square feet lioor space per bird.I - Place a little kerosene on the top of the drinking, water or one 7.3-grain mercury bichloride tablet in a gallon of water in a nonmetal container. These should never be used more than ten days In succession. Place one pound epsom salts per 100 birds In' the drinking water or a wet mash. - Judgment in Feeding Good judgment must be exercised In feeding the pullets after they are ma­ ture and are in their winter houses. Usually eight quarts of hard grain is fed to one hundred birds a day. One- third or one-fourth of this amount should be fed In the morning and the balance at night When about half the birds are laying well they may re­ quire as much as ten or twelve quarts Per day. Sometimes, however, eight quarts is too much and it is'necessary to cut down on this, amount Mash should always be kept before them In boppers or feeders.

SCARFAND TIE MATCH COSTUME; EMBROIDERED POCKETS POPULAR WITH increasing interest French couturiers are creating smart tailleurs for their clientele. Particu­ larly are they directing their atten­ tion to the tailored frock this season. A touch that tells In the effectively tailored dresses "made in Paris" is the matching scarf and (he flowing necktie. • These are not worn as ac­ cessory to the costume, but are an in­ trinsic partj of the dress, being made of self-material.

Pro- ® ducefs at Iowa Station,; : i '£i;- c- E-O-JatSVtjO » *14« IauKofThe efficacy of the “corn-crtb cr.oss has . again , been demonstrated. The same experiment has demonstrated also the worth of the pure-bred cross. Here Is the story; Over In the state of Iowa the ■ experiment station offi­ cials decided to go across to the neighboring state of Arkansas. Into a section where feed was scarce and what cows they had were poor .Indeed, and buy a few of them, bring them home, feed them well and breed them to pure-bred bulls. Such an experi­ ment. they reasoned, would demon­ strate the value of good feeding to men who had herds of similarly poor cattle and It would show how such herds could be Improved from genera­ tion to generation. Seven cows, four yearling heifers and two heifer calves were purchased. They were small and undernourished. - Got Same Food. When they reached their new home, however,. they got the same feed and care as the cows In the station herd. Instead of hay in winter and pasture In summer, they were given alfalfa. Silage and a well-balanced meal ra­ tion. Instead of indifferent housing and hit-and-miss care, they had a good stable and chores were done by the clock. The first year, under this kind of attention, two four-year-olds In the lot produced S.084.6 lbs. milk and, 149.24 lbs. fat. This production they steadily increased until, at seven years of age, they produced an aver­ age of 4,907.7 lbs. milk and 229.91 lbs. fat, an increase of 59 per cent In milk and 54 per cent In fan Allowing for the natural increase due to greater maturity, the increase due to the cu­ mulative effect of good feed and care was 49 per cent in milk and .46 per cent In fat. It was also shown that the younger an animal comes under good feed and' management the greater will be its response. Comparing the rec­ ords of the two four-year-olds with those of the older cows in the lot, they increased 14 per cent in milk and 8 per-cent In fat as compared with the mature cows. Those coming as heifers produced 27 per cent more mlik and 24 per cent more fat than did those started at maturity. There Is a lesson here for the most of as, It is just pos­ sible that too much bas been said about the importance of good breeding as compared with the emphasis that has been placed on good feeding. We hove been In sections where pure-bred bulls have been used for generations, but where the average production of the herds was very low. It was a case of poor feeding.. When we consider that these Arkansas cows were as poor as could be found, we must con­ clude that there would be very few 3,000-pound- cows, if all eows were given a real chance. Alfalfa Is Ideal./ ® Legnme as Pasture Yeryi5 Nutritious and Starta ; . Early in tHe Spring. .. ',Alfalfa has; proven Itself by experi­ mentation; and ‘practical.experience to' j>e>anUdeai’hog: pasture.; ;IniSome: sec* tions, other legumes might outyleld al­ falfa, and when this condition exists the one yielding the largest tonnage should be given consideration. ■ Alfalfa is very nutritious and starts early in the spring, staying green until late fail. When properly bandied, al­ falfa will furnish adequate pasturage throughout the grazing season for sev­ eral years. Brood sows upon alfalfa pasture and receiving three ears of corn daily will produce strong,- healthy pigs. They may also be kept in good condition by feeding two to three pounds of barley per head daily 'While on alfalfa pas­ ture. Mature sows are often grazed upon alfalfa pasture without receiving any grain, but better pigs will be pro­ duced if grain Is fed. Alfalfa or some other legume should always be provided to furnish a sum­ mer pasture for sows and their litters. For fattening pigs alfalfa is without a superior. An acre of alfalfa will carry 15 pigs from weaning time until they are ready for market. If these pigs are given a well-balanced ration, t[ie acre of alfalfa will be equivalent in value to an acre producing 40 bush­ els. of corn.—B. W. Fairbanks, Exten­ sion. Service, Colorado Agricultural College." Control Tomato Blight • by Spraying or Dustiiig Tomatoes are very largely injured by leaf spot or blight, which by In­ juring the leaves prevents the ma­ turity and development of the fruit. They also are likely to be son scalded because of no protection by the leavers. This trouble can be controlled to a considerable extent by spraying or dusting’ with bordeaux. which is profitable op rich soils, but may not be profitable on poor soils. The ef-. fects of the trouble can largely be avoided by setting out oniy stocky, well-bardened plants early In the spring. ^ The disease lives over In weeds, grass and rubbish, of the garden, and therefore, much can be done in the way of prevention by keeping the garden clean. Bulletin No. 12S8 of the Dnited States Department of Agriculture gives full details about this disease. Field Feeding of Com fField Jeedlng of corn is most suc­ cessful when the weather Is dry. It is not wise to keep pigs In the field after heavy rains, for they then waste corn and may Injure the land. Unless very early, varieties of corn are used, which are usually not heavy ylelders, the new com crop will not be ready early enough In the fall to furnish much feed for pigs which are to be finished for market in September. or October, before the usual slump In prices occurs. Coekleburs Are Ffttal According to A. A. Hansen, weed specialist at I’urdue, rockleburs are sometimes fatal to hogs and also to young cattle; It Is not known definite­ ly whether the Injury la due to poison In the plants or to the mechanlcai ef­ fect of the burs In the digestive sys­ tem. If the burs are well developed take the hogs from the field but if the. plants' are not IaTge and the burs soft and just starting to form there is no danger. In leaving the bogs where they are. Air for Tomatoes Give seedling tomatoes air whenever It Is possible to make them stocky. No plant goes spindling faster- than the tomato. Open the window a little way on any day when the. temperature Is above freezing but do not expose to cold'winds.: Fresh air whenever pos­ sible goes a long way toward making fine, strong tomato plants In the seed boxes and frames. Summer Season to Build Silos for Storing Feed In the summer the farmer must be­ gin to get ready for winter. He must get his buildings repaired if they need it, see that there is adequate housing for his stock and provide for the stor­ age of sufficient feed to last his ani­ mals over the winter. The silo plays a most important part In the storage of feed on the modern farm. It insures a good supply of green feed all winter and increases money to farmers to build silos, know- Itft that the silo increases the farm­ er’s bank account. Tests at the Indiana experiment sta­ tion, covering 'a period of 8 years, showed that only 28 acres were re­ quired to feed 20 steers for 150 days when corn silage, supplemented with clover hay, was used, whereas it re­ quired 35 acres to produce the same result Wlmn corn and clover were used. If the farmer wastes the leaves and stalks of com, he loses about forty cents out of every dollar of possible value of his crop. The silo prevents this waste. • As the value of the silo has come to be recognized, there has been a con­ stant movement in the direction of permanent silos. This trend has brought the concrete silo to the fore. Sweet Clover Produces Seed the Second Season Sweet clover Is a biennial plant and - therefore produces seed the: sec­ ond, year after planting. When sown In early Spring there may be a crop of hay taken from the field the first year or it may be pastured, taking care not to pasture it too short so that it will not be able to survive the winter successfully. In the spring of the second year the crop that Is In­ tended for seed should either be clipped, pastured or a cutting of hay made from it so that a less vigorous stein growth may be secured. There is a great deal of danger to the stand in both clipping and cutting for hay and therefore It is not usually ad­ visable to use either of these. Per­ haps the safest method Is to pasture the crop until about June L The crop will be ready to harvest for seed late In August as a rule.

The latest demand about which we have read is that in the'case of marriage the man adopt the name of the w-iman,taking on the name of the male. • A certain fam ale' refuses to jhe up her maiden name for that of the man to whom she would be mar­ ried. He also refuses to give.up bis ind at. p'-esen* the marriage is held | up for that reason. | The would brf bride registers^berj complaint in these words: 'Because I refused to accept his name as ail in’the past have accepted their mas* ter’s name as all the colorless; spine­ less women slaves in the past have accepted thrir .master’s names, he nas departed in a rage and refuses t Vmarry me” She appea'rs to bedis- iriestrd, di'sappoidted and consider­ ably ppev;-d over the matter-.. She goes on.to state that she is 28 vears of age. a college graduate, a prac­ ticing lawyer and a furious feminist. That she has worked hard to put her harne on the map. and does not wish t > give it up. What do you think of that? As f ir us, we glory in the spunk of the man who “departed in a rage.” Sot that were are opposed to giving wimmin folks thtnp-- rights or that we are opposed to giving wimmin folks their rights or that we favor making ’’slaves” of them. Yet we See no reason whv the age long cus­ tom should be changed. It begins to^appear that some woiren ignore the fact that they were born, as such and knd are determined to be men anyway.

This Woman.”. From the Catawba N <iws-Euterprise. VVe have seen mfiijy-siiuatiohs.a nd many conditions in the-courts-of this ,. state,-but one. occurred in: Newton on Tuesday, Aftnt ,7;- that we sliall not soon forget. ' The case before'the bar was that which showed that a man who' had been honored by his countv for years' ' as an educational leader, arid a rep- tesentative in both houses of the general assenblv of North Carolina/.--, was about, to be sentenced' for-nhe destruction of the character of the woman who had served in his office as stenographer. The whole bar of Morganton, prac­ tically, was here to plead for the man. They did n.ot stop with the Morganton bar, but one of Newtoii's lawyers was employed to use his in­ fluence with the court to lighten the sentence !This was not all—we have ver seen so ri'aiiy business men from all the avocations of life of any one county go into anolliercoui t / Io give their support to a defendant at the bar of justice. The law>«jrs grew eloquent in be­ half of their client Ti ey quoted Scripluresto the court. They re­ ferred to groat characters in the Biblewho hadfallen by. the way— and had thp audience ready to shed t ;ars when the court reniir-ded them that in the Bible times persons who committed crimes like their client were stoned to death—this was a knock out blow from the court. When the court began to discuss his responsibility in the case—then it was that he uttered these memor­ able words: “No one has said one word |o r this woman ” The tffect of that sentence was the most ter- rifie of any one Sentence that w e-. ev ^ lieird fall 'frofn fife Tips of a judge, and the impression that the sentence ma le was one of the most profound that we have ever seen upon any audience. There sat the woman whose char­ acter was gone—her all in this life was gone—we say all because when a woman’s chafacter is destroyed she can never regain it so long as life shall last. We heard one of the Iawyersplead for a man to have a chance to live ' down the ditigrace that was his. ho commended the man who would st> I live in a community and live down disgrace—but he failed to tell us how long it would take this woman to live down disgrace. . Here is where the injustices to women come in—the man can strut around in his boots after he destroys the character oi a woman, and be as big in sucielyas he was before his crocked ness is known--but a woman when she falls—is down forever s’j far as otir society is concerned. Uence it. is that we have often quoted'these words to the girls and young womanhood as we have had 0 ;casions to address them in differ­ ent parts of the state: * Rsmember that the virtue of a woman is a flow­ er which once it i; withered, never blooms again, though bathed in tears ” Pays Railroad Pare After Twenty Years: Greensboro.

THE PICNIC SEASON As the lovely spring days..-call us Into the. open, we return to our cook b o o k s to fresh­ en our memory 'on good things to take on an outing. For many of us a few good sandwiches and fresh fruit, with a cool or hot drink, comprise a meal most satisfying and little trouble to get ready. The fol­ lowing are a few to add to the cherished list: •Cream o f CMejtin Sandwiches.— Take sufficient white meat of chicken to make half a cupful, chop and pound to a paste. Put a teaspoonful of gela­ tin to soak in two tablespqonfuis of water and stand over heat until dis­ solved. Whip one cupful of cream un­ til stiff, add a teaspoonful of grated horseradish and half a teaspoonful of salt to the chicken and gelatin. Stir until It. begins to thicken, then add the cream and let stand until cold. Butter bread, cutting the slices a little thick­ er than usual. Trim off the crusts and cut into triangles. Cover each piece with the cream mixture,' garnish the top with slices of stuffed olives, minced parsley, pipings of cream, mounds of chopped capers and olives and celery finely minced. A platter of these open sandwiches cut into various shares decorated with minced green and red peppers, may be most attractive and decorative. ■ Deviled Sandwiches.—Chop a quar­ ter of a pound of cold boiled tongue very fine; add to it two tablespoonfuis of olive oil, a dash of red pepper, a teaspoonful of Worcestershire sauce, a few dashes of paprika and salt to season. Mix and add the hard-cooked yolks of three eggs which have been put through a ricer. Spread on but­ tered bread, cover with another but­ tered slice and . garnish with water cress. Cucumber Sandwiches.—S p r e a d bread with butter and cut the slices one-balf inch thick. Cover each slice with seasoned slicedvcucumbers, then cover with finely shredded lettuce; on this place a slice of thin white meat of chicken, cover with lettuce and a slice of buttered bread. Trim into Shapei and. serve at. once. :. . . . Clubhouse Sandwiches.—These are usually made of freshly-toasted bread. Put on a well-buttered slice of toast a thin layer of boiled ham; on that a thin slice of pickle; on top of that a thin slice of turkey or chicken, then a leaf of lettuce with a spoonful, of mayonnaise. Cover with another slice of buttered toast and cut into triangles to serve. Summer Desserts. There is no. dessert more popular than some, form of frozen dish. Strawberry Sher­ bet. — Take two cupfuls of straw­ berry pulp, made by mashing the fresh berries. Boil one and one-half cupfuls of sugar and two cupfuls of water for ten minutes. Soften a half teaspoonful of gelatin In two table­ spoonfuis of cold water and add to the hot sirup. Add the juice of half a lemon and one-half cupful of orange juice to the strawberry mix­ ture; add the sirup when cool and freeze. When the mixture is partly frozen add a well-beaten egg white with two tablespoonfuls of sugar; con­ tinue freezing. Raspberry juice strained from the seeds is especially delicious for. this sherbet. Raspberry Bombe Glace.—Line a three-pint melon mold with rasp­ berry ice. Fill the center with sweet­ ened, flavored whipped cream. Pack In ice and salt and let stand for three to four hours. Apricot Cream Sherbet.—Measure two cupfuls of canned apricots, put through a potato ricer, add three- fourths of a cupful of sugar, and let stand three hours, Fold in one cupful of whipped cream and freeze. Raspberry Ice.—Take four cupfuls of water, two cupfuls of sugar and boil six minutes. Cool; add one and o n e - f o u r t h cupfpls of raspberry juice and the juice of half a lemon. Freeze as usual.Pineapple Cream Sherbet-Take two cupfuls of grated fresh pineapple, cover with sugar, using a cupful; let stand three hours, fold In one cupful o f cream, whipped stiff, and freeze. Panama Sherbet-T o one and one* half cupfuls of sugar add one cupful of water, boil five minutes and eoql Put six medium-sized bananas through V ricer- add two cupfuls of orange fuice and two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice; add to the sugar sirup and pour S to the freezer. When partly frozen add the beaten white of an egg and two tablespoonfuls of sugar; mix well and finish freezing. Oranges served In some form when d u c f c goose, turkey or pork form t£e Hish as well as rich puddings Md n u t s ,’will be found very desira­ ble. C H A R M I N G S P O R T S S W E A T E R ; W I D E B R I M S A R E P O P U L A R XX7ITH the scene all set of green fields, clear running streams, in­ viting equestrian paths, apple blos­ soms and sunshine overhead, violets, and crocus beneath, springtime keeps calling “Come out into the great out­ doors,” adding a precautionary word, “but do not forget your sweater.” Not that the true sportswoman need be re­ minded of the importance' of her sweater. It enters as essentially into the planning of her fresh air cam­ paign as does tennis racket, golf ball and fishing rod. In regard to the ideal sports sweater fashion says “It must denote smart- dour blue. Gray is also written boldly on fashion’s ledger. Rumor becomes fact as far as the larger hat. is,concerned, No longer is the little chapeau to hold undisputed sway In the realm of fashion. The wide brim has arrived and claims right to share In the millinery honors of the day. The popular broad brim at the mo­ ment is wider at the sides than the front and back, sometimes the back having no brim at all. These almost give the Impression of a bonnet, wide of brim and tall of crown. As BDEQ- mer advances big" picturesque shapes I Z % SENSIBLE COSTUME FOR OUTDOOR SPORTS ness” ; commonsense cautions “it must be practical”—and that exactly de­ scribes the regulation sports sweater model for spring and summer. 1925. as illustrated in the picture herewith. Note how perfectly this little fisher1 maid is appareled in snugly tailored sweater knitted of alpaca, with knick­ ers and woolen hose fashioned correct­ ly even unto the minutest detail. Printer's ink falls short of conveying the charming sunset brown called “lariat” In styledoni’s dictionary, which is the Color of sweater and hose, for, nowadays, to be In fashion, stockings must match the knitted jacket. Well might the four roomy pockets of which this sweater boasts ex'cite the envy of of every type will be worn with chif­ fon and lace frocks. These will be in exquisite pastel shades. The favor­ ite, for immediate wear is the bahg- kok shape. ' / An item of very special interest is that they are trimming these bangkok shapes with velvet, either yardage-cut or velvet ribbon; also bright-colored facings are in use. One notes many of the wider straw or bangkok brims are velvet bound. Fuchsia and ,'magenta are leading millinery shades. Many, of the large roses which trim the big pokes now so fashionable indicate this color trend. Silken roses of this shade, with decorative stems and foliage, beautify n the average small boy who knows how necessary are pockets to one’s con­ venience when ;en route on a day’s or week-end’s outing. ' Having acquired a proper regulation sports sweater, such as described,-one’s fancy lightly, turns to sweaters of more fanciful mood, for ’tls the manner of our modem knitted outerwear design­ ers to tempt the woman of fashion with’ “a sweater for every occasion.’’ The newest- type among sweaters is the jabot sllpon. This consists of an exquisitely knit sweater either of silk or light woof with a cascade or Jabot of self construction draped' from neck to hem at one side of the front. , Art silk Jumpers embroidered In con­ trasting color or • self shade present themselves In alluring new..,colors,..Ctalefi among which is madonna, and pompa- V A R IE T Y ^ WIDE BRIMS the silk-covered hat shown center to the left in the group pictured here.. The new large poke effect is defined in that youthful model above to the left in this picture. The crushed sash’ about the crown is of wide sil­ ver ribbon. I T te short-back of present favor is defined In the chapeau above to the right An ostrich fancy trims it ef­ fectively. .

New York.—The American News­ paper Publishers' association at its second day's session voted to increase revenues to provide for extension of its service and to hold a semi-annual convention beginning this fall at some point in southern territory to be se­ lected. , . Expansion of- the publishers’ organ­ ization was authorized by adoption of the following resolution: “Resolved, that the president of the American Newspaper Publishers’ asso­ ciation -be authorized to appoint, a committee of members for the purpose of conferring with the board of direc­ tors of the A. N. P. A. as to the basis for future dues and assessments to be ievied by the association and that fol lowing such consultation the board of directors of the A. N. P. A. be author­ ized to be put into effect after due notice such basis of dues and assess­ ments as shall be determined by the board of directors,” This action, it was said, will meet a request made by President S. E. Thomason in his annual address. Mr. ’Thomason’s request also contemplated a reduction in the cost of member, ship of smaller dailies and an equita­ ble increase in the dues of -those larger newspapers better able to bear it. The additional funds will likely be applied, it was said, to the widening of the association’s service to mem­ bers along the following lines: Spon­ soring of meetings of mechanical men, and bulletin service for exchange of useful mechanical information and methods; bulletin information on hand­ ling methods and on waste in paper, prices and percentages; a similar ser­ vice on paper damage,, methods o' paper hahdling, weights of wrappers and methods of protecting rolls. Freight rate advance and a general traffic service also have been urged by President Thomason as certain to pay for themselves over annually, and will doubtless be included In the new service program. Coolidge Offers Culbertson Post. Washington — President Coolldge has selected William S. Culbertson of Kansas to succeed Peter A. Jay as minister to Rumania. Mr. Jay soon will be transferred to Argentina. •Mr. Culbertson, at present vice chairman of the tariff commission, has not, however, made, known to the White House whether :he will accept, nor have -the usual formailities preced­ ing a diplomatic appointment, Mr. Culbertson conferred with the president, and it was assumed that the executive had laid the diplomatic appointment before him as a personal matter and a promotion, as has been the case recently within the foreign service. Sta-te department officials hold the Rumanian post of h,igh importance and have.canvassed the names of numer­ ous available men to find one capable of maintaining American rights in the delicate situation obtaining there. Snow 17 Inches Deep. Butte, Mont,—Swept by the most severe spring snowstorm in its history, central Montana was blanketed with snow which reached a depth of 17 inches Jfi Butte. ,Transportation traf­ fic was demoralized; telegraph and telephone wires were down for several hours and several small towns' were cut off completely from communica­ tion. The storm was reported to be heav­ iest in Montana, and snow continued to,fall in many cities. Telegraph and telephone lines suffered the -brunt- of the storm, late reports indicated. Wires were down to many towns north of Butte, where the snow fall reached a depth of 20 inches. Sapiro Asks For Million Damages. Detroit—Damages of $1,000,000 were asked in a suit filed in TJnited States district court here against Henry Ford and the Dearborn Publish­ ing Company,; which he owns. The action was brought by Aaron Sapiro, an attorney who has been connected prominently with co-operatives mar- keting organizations of farmers and fruit growers -throughout the country. Sapiro's suit' charges that certain articles printed In the Dearborn Inde­ pendent, a weekly newspaper publish­ ed by Ford, have injured him as an attorney and deprived -him of “divers fees, gains, rewards and compensa­ tions" which he otherwise might have obtained. The-petition quotes articles which it is averred appeared in the Dearborn Independent,' accusing -Sapiro of being one pf "a conspiracy of .Jewish bank­ ers who seek to control the food mar­ kets of the world.” Large Lot Grain is Destroyed.' Chicago.—More than 2,000,000 bush­ els of corn and oats', belonging to the Grain Marketing Corporation, were de- stroyed in a fire which started shortly before midnight, burning two wooden elevators and threatening an indus­ trial section on the South Side before it was subdued. The loss was estimated at $2,250,000 by Emmanuel F. Rosenbaum, presi­ dent of the Rosenbaum Grain-Corpor­ ation, through which the elevators were leased to the tanners’ co-opera­ tive organization. - YOUTH, 20, WHO N E V E R W A LfaE D NOW HAS HOPE Bdieves Surgeons Will Ac­ complish Miracle He Has Dreamed of. Kansas City, Mo.—Gerald Wilson, twenty, of Gilman, Iowa, never has walked. In six months, surgeons at- the Christian Church hospital say, Ger­ ald will try his legs. . They, believe be will be able to use. them. Recently be underwent an opera­ tion on one leg. The other leg just went nnder the knife. Gerald faces six months, possibly eight, In the hospital. He’s happy. He believes the surgeons who have ope­ rated on him will accomplish the miracle he has dreamed of through the long 15 years he has lain bedfast. Eager to Get Well. Back of Gerald’s smile and his forti­ tude is a' desire to get well and repay citizens of Gilman whose generosity made possible the hope for future usefulness.

They now are planning a benefit show In Gilman to raise an ad­ ditional $500 to do the job up right Until a' few months ago, Gerald had resigned himself to the life of an in­ valid. There was no hopes, he felt of his ever walking. From his bed­ room windows he had watched boys of his Sgev Cavort He had turned away his head many times to keep from sobbing. Surgeon Proves "Angel." His parents were poor. He had no money. Then a Kansas City surgeon, who has remained anonymous through­ out the case, told him an operation would make, his' legs straight. The surgeon told Gerald a birth injury had caused a hemorrhage of the brain, which In turn caused the muscles of his legs to . contract. The surgeon volunteered his services gratis. ManviUe and Hagerty raised the money for the hospital bill and Gerald was trundled into the Christian Church hospital - Tm going to walk out,” says Ger­ ald. Chicago Brides Found for Farmers in West Canada Ottawa.—Chicago, New York and Montana having been heard from, it wUl not be necessary to send a special mission to England and Ireland to get wives for Canadian farmers in the Northwest. This was arranged for, but a deluge of letters came from Ameri­ can women willing to pass their lives in the Northwest irVllna bachelors.” said a dispatch from yilna, Alberta, Canada, “wUl not need to search England and Ireland for brides. More than 100- letters have been received by the secretary of the1 VlIna Citizens' league from lonely maids In Canada . and the United States, asking particulars about the 68 bachelor farmers of this district and giving encouragement to the most bashful to propose at once.” The greater part of the writers hail from Toronto and other Ontario ports. Montana and British Columbia also arc weU represented. Chicago and New York furnished about a score each. So appointment of the overseas en­ voy was canceled at the last meeting of the league, and a scheme of adver­ tising for Canadian and American girls adopted.

Mistakes are bound to be made by the beginner and difficult problems will be presented which must be solved before one can expect to make a success In the poul­ try business. There are two ways of starting in the business. One is to buy fowls In the faU of the. year and the other is to buy eggs for hatching or baby chicks In the spring. Perhaps the buying of fowls In the fall is the safer method, but for the money in­ vested the starting with eggs or baby chicks In the spring offers a larger op­ portunity. In starting with poultry the begin­ ner should first of all consider the pur­ pose for which he wants to use the fowls. There are four general classes of-fowls, the egg breeds, the meat breeds, general-purpose breeds and fancy or ornamental breeds. The egg breeds Include the smaller or medium-sized fowls, which are very active, quick to mature and which pro­ duce white-shelled eggs. They are mostly nonsltters or poor sitters and other fowls are usually kept if natural methods of incubation are used. The Leghorns, Anconas and Minorcas are typical breeds of this class. The meat breeds represent the other extreme and are especially suitable for the production of roasters. Fowls of this class are slow and somewhat slug­ gish. They are easily confined with low fences, slow maturing, persistent sitters and rather indifferent layers. The Brahmas, Cochins and Langshans belong to this class. The general-purpose breeds are me­ dium in size and produce a good quan­ tity of eggs, thereby making them ap­ peal to those who want a bird which will supply both eggs and m eat The general-purpose fowls are usually good sitters and good mothers. They occupy a medium position between the egg and meat breeds in size, egg production and docility. However, it should be noted that in the recent work in breeding for high egg production some of the gen­ eral-purpose fowls have made very creditable egg records. Plymouth Rocks, Wyandottes, Rhode Island Reds and Orpingtons are typical representa­ tives of the general-purpose fowls. Ornamental breeds are not generally adapted to farm flocks unless some one has time to develop some special type. The Polish, Silkies, Sultans and Ban­ tams are representative of these breeds. T re a tm e n t O u tlin e d to C u re E g g -E a tin g H a b it Hens sometimes acquire a vice of eating their eggs, learning to do this from eating an accidentally broken egg. If one hen learns how to eat eggs the whole flock soon learns from her. Egg shells should never be fed to hens unless they are very finely broken or are mixed with soft food of soine kind. To cure this' costly habit cut off the points of the mandibles of the beak, using a very sharp knife. Cut back a little at a time until enough is cut off to leave the tender flesh slightly ex­ posed. As soon as a tiny drop of blood exudes from the cut enough has been removed. Then boll some eggs very hard, selecting those with the thickest shells, and put them on the floor of the poultry house, where the hens can easily get them. They try to break the shells by pecking at them and this hurts the nerves In the short­ ened beak so they will give it up after a few trials, and thereafter not try to break an egg. In a short time the beak will grow into its normal shape and the hens will have forgotten the vice. S u p p ly in g F irst F e e d s to th e Y o im g G o slin g s Goslings should not be fed until they are more than 36 hours old when they should be given stale bread soaked In milk or water, to which finely chopped boiled eggs may be added. This should be fed three or. four tlmeB dally for the first two or three weeks, with chopped grass or some other green feed added. Plenty of fresh, clean wa­ ter should be supplied, and 5 per cent fine grit or sharp sand may be added to the feed or. kept In a hopper before the goslings. After two or three, weeks they will need a light feed' daily of a mash made up of two parts shorts and one part of cornmeal. W henthegrass range is good other feed need not be given until, fattening time. While the 'goslings are young great care should be practiced to prevent them from get­ ting wet. They should be left In the coop until after the dew dries In the morning and should, not be allowed; to' get caught In a rain. It Is better to keep them separated from the old stock after they are about two' weeks old. , H e n L o ts A d jo in in g Where it is necessary to have: lots adjacent to one another It is advis­ able to use fine-meshed wire' for . the bottom two feet in order to keep the roosters from fighting. For the re­ mainder of the fence the regular two- inch mesh is satisfactory. Tbe heavy breeds 'may be kept In a lot with a four-foot fence, but the Ught breeds often require a fence seven feet high. One wing of the birds can be clipped to keep the birds from flying over the tehee. SA Y “ B A Y E R A S P IR IN ” a n d INSIST!

W N U S e r v i c e , C H A P T E R X I V —11— T h e B e s t L a id P la n s Father McGrath bad insisted that Lee should remain as a guest at the mission during the two following days, and he insisted on supplying him with an outfit of clothing. He asked their plans and Lee told him. "The best thing in the worrld,” he said. “T ell be safe at the house, and dinna ha’ any fear of those de'U's agents at Siston lake, for they’ll ken all aboot the pair o’ ye long syne, and they darena interfere wi’ ye the noo. But dinna prolong your honeymoon too long, for ye must be'oot o’ the range before the heavy snaws begin.” Lee and Father McGrath had u long talk together that night. Lee told him the whole story of his encounter with Joyce in the 'range, the dynamiting, and his pursuit of the band at Siston lake and rescue of the girl, culminat­ ing with their flight Into the forest and Joyce’s loss of memory. At first the father listened and in­ terrupted, and kept giving Tent Io ex­ clamations of amazement and indigna­ tion; but as Lee went on with his story he fell into silence, puffing at his pipe beside the stove and looking at Lee intently. “’Tis amazing!” he said, when Lee had ended. ruI canna understand it. For, look you, Anderson; it Isna as if this was a country o' savages, whaur a base man could do what he pleased; 'Tls true they sell their feelthy hooch; but that’s deefererit fra’ kidnaping women and attempting murrder. There's something at the back o’ this that we havena hit upon.” Next morning Lee slept late—so late that It was the recitations of the school children across the open ^pace that aroused him. From his bed he could hear Joyce’s voice directing them, and he smiled happily at the thought of her. The morrow was his marriage day. The evening of the morrow they would be together in their log home, shut off from all the world. It was a renascence of youth, this tender joy that filled him. He dressed and strolled across the interval to the schoolhouse. That was the happiest day of his life. Joyce, at bis mandate, agreed to a half holiday, and all that afternoon they strolled through the snow-bound . woods, their arms about each other, planning tbeir life together. Lee came more and more to see that to'Joyce happiness consisted of the wilderness. She would wilt in a city. She- had endured the' period of her medical training only ■ as a preliminary' to re- T.uming Into the wilds. They decided that they would make their homes there, Lee resigning from the police the following spring. They would take up work under Father Mc­ Grath, enlarge the log house,' create a garden; in time to come settlers would flock in, the whisky traffic would go—they dreamed for, hours until the advent of night sent them homeward. Next afternoon an old Indian and his wife were requisitioned for ■wit­ nesses; and in the little schoolroom, In the presence of the entire population of the settlement, which consisted of the children, two half-grown;.girls. and a young boy, with an aged squaw or two—all legacies of the great small­ pox epidemic of four years before which had decimated the region— Father McGrath, performed the simple ceremony that united them,- taking the gold ring from his own finger, and handing it'to Lee who put it on his bride’s. ) And Lee, looking at Joyce with a new wonder that was almost fear, dis-' covered the purpose that had sent him, into Jhe range. It was for tfiis, and this alone, that he might find not only his love, but that-, comrade of his. heart’s desire whom he had sought all the days'of his life.-, : V:,-.' And In Joyce’s confused and bliish- ing face, 'In her eyes as she raised . them shyly'toward his own. he" read their mutual happiness. With Joyce’s arm drawn shyly through his own, and his shoulders aching from Father McGrath’s hand­ clasp, he left the schoolhouse. Out­ side, tbe horse stood harnessed to the sleigh, which was loaded with the sup­ plies. Lee handed Joyce Inside and followed her. Father McGrath took the box seat of the big sleigh, which had originally functioned in the streets of some provincial city. Father Mc-* Grath had driven It to his destination by a detour round the range, with all his worldly -goods packed Inside It The journey was a glow one,' the horse slipping on the frozen scow and plunging through the ernste that had formed over the surface. It was even colder than before,’ and there geemed so doubt'that «vinter had set In at last. AU' were glad when the log house came in to view. Father McGrath got down, flapping his arms. Lee helped Joyce out They set down the supplies. ‘TH help you In wi’ these goods,” said the priest "but I wilna come in­ side. And dinna ye be coining back to me, Mrs. Anderson,”—Joyce looked adorably confused at the address— “and tell me tales aboot your hus­ band, because all the men are alike, as ye ha’ yet to learm, and ye’re in the trap o* matreemony noo, the pair o’ ye—tied fast, and there’s naething this side o’ deith can unfasten the knot for ye. “Guid-bye and guid luck to ye,” te added, extending a hand to each. But In the middle of that hand­ clasp he stood still, listening. His face grew grim. Lee listened too. And at first he beard only the night wind stir­ ring among the trees; then something more ominous, yet very faint coining out of the distance. It died away. The two men watched each other’s faces with a surmise that did • not rBild vent in • utterance. Per*, haps it had been—the wind, the waves lapping the shore—but now it came again, louder and unmistakable. “ Lee dared not raise his eyes to meet Joyce’s questioning gaze, lest she should discern the sudden fear; For it was the put-putting of Rath- way’s motorboat. The three might have been figures of stone as they stood there, listening to the sound of the engine, which grew rapidly louder. None of the three uttered a word.. Then the boat came into view, near­ ing the bank. It contained four men. One of them was Rathway. And even though Joyce was his inseparably, Lee waited for the sensation of an icy hand clutching his heart. Father McGrath spoke. “’Tis Rath­ way, and I doot not but he’s some de’il’s wurrk afoot But haud steady, Anderson. He wllna dare—he wilna dare—’■ His voice trailed off into silence. The engine of the motorboat had been shut off. Rathway and his men had stepped out They were ashore, they were coming up from the river toward the house, Rathway a little in the lead of the others. With his hunched shoul­ ders and* his great muscular strength, his look of malignant mocking fero­ city, he seemed the nearest thing that Lee had known to incarnate evil. His face, as he drew near the group, was twisted in a wry, triumphant smile. BelookedmockinglyatLee. He looked ironically at Father McGrath. But there was possession anticipated in the look he cast at Joyce, and Lee drew the girl to his side, his arms about her, standing a little in front of her to protect her,, from the sight of Rathway. * Father McGrath stepped forward. “Te ha’ na business here' wi’ my friends, James Rathway!” he cried. “Te ken verra weel the agreement we’ve entered into. So ye can take y^rsel’ and your de’II's crew awa’!” “Aye?” sneered Rathway, regarding the priest with ironic banter. “But I have followed you and this party here beLause yon were not at the mission. It’s,not my plan to stay.” "What do you want?” McGrath de­ manded. “My wife,” ''Rathway returned, stretching out his hand to place it on Joyce’s shoulder.. With a loud cry Joyce leaped back, staring, about her as if she did not know where she was. Lee let his clenched flat fall; The situation was too big for.physical retort ./ "Ay, my wife, Father McGrath,” Rathway said again. "Married to me two years ago In Montreal. And there’s the certificate.” He held out a document. Father McGrath’s -first; words-before looking at It. were characteristic: “T is the first time I’ve hearrd o’ the mon and na the wumman keepin’ the marriage lines, “James Rathway.” Lee was holding Joyce, who swayed in his arms. “What does he mean?” he kept repeating. “It’s some trick. Tell them It’s a trick, Joyce!” But Joyce seemed neither to hear nor to understand anything. Mean­ while Father-McGrath, who bad been examining the paper, . handed it back with an,lronIcal bow. • ^ “Mees Pelly that was, was united In the bonds of holy matrimony w f Mees- talr Anderson -here these three. hours syne,” be said. 'Td tak her wuurd against your own and ca’ that a forrg- eiy.” But the priest’s face shone deathly white In the moonlight. ' “Aye?” sneered Rathway, pointing a’-long finger [at Jbyce. "Let-her ,d^ny . It if stiedare!9 . Joyce said not a word. She lay In Lee’s arms as if she bad been mortally stricken. X deadly fear began to creep over Lee. over McGrath. Behind pathway Shorty and Pierre and a third man grinned and shifted un­ easily; “And that’s a ‘lee, anyhow,” said Father McGrath scornfully. Rathway bowed, Sneeringlyi in turn. “Permit me to, go on, Father; believe or disbelieve, it makes no difference. He sent his girl away to school to Montreal. Soon after, it was discov­ ered that Pelly was wanted for an old murder—” ’ ,“Lee Number Two,” said the priest “’Twas you betrayed him—I ha’' nae doots o’ that.” “He fled the country,” pursued Ratbway. unruffled. “As his only friend, fearing that his daughter might, come to harm In. Montreal, I west down there, saw her, and offered to make her my wife. She consented with alacrity—” . “Oo, aye, and we’il just cut out the alacreety,” said Father McGrath In abysmal disgust, “because she didha, and If she did, it ill becomes you to say so.” ! “She married me at the Church of the Virgin, as this certificate proves. And it was agreed that she should continue her mission studies for a certain period before coming to live with me as Egy wife. I proposed to build a comfortable home for her at SIston lake and go Into the fur busi­ ness—” “Fur?” shouted McGrath. “The only fur you’ve ever traded In is what ye’ve put on the tongues and stomachs of your victims, ye cheap poison-ped- dlin’ hooch-hound!” Rathway went on as if he had not heard the Icsult,; “Last month, when she ha^ completed her course, she started north to meet me. As I. was away on a business trip, I detailed two of my men to escort her from Little Falls, They met her. This man was with her, and he ordered them away under 'threat of shooting.” He turned to Lee with a scowl. “At Mrs. Rathway’s urgent request thg£ went away to . avoid bloodshed, but waited In the vicinity to make sure that no violence was offered her. As she did not reach their camping place, they became alarmed and went back. They found her lying under her horse, apparently abandoned by him after some, accident—if It was only an accident. “They brought her to Sistoh lake, where I had just returned. This man “What Do You Want?” MeGrath De- manded. , - followed them, attacked and stunned me from behind, stole a boat and two packs, and took her away, and ap­ pears to have been living a tramp’s life In the woods with -my wife ever sincfit” [Lee, who was syil holding Joyce, started, but Father' McGrath held up bis hand. "Na’, na’, let him feenish his lying story,” he said. “That’s all,” . said Rathway. "In' spite of all, I am willing to forgive the past and take her back. She was-un­ conscious when this man got her Into his power. He shall pay for what he has done, if there’s law In this land—, but this poor girl has been more sinned against than sinning. I’m willing to acknowledge her as my wife still. And I 4efy- you, Father McGrath, to in­ tervene.” Father McGrath walked a step or two toward Joyce, who jvas standing, encircled by Lee’s arm, her eyes east, down. She raised them to his face In mute appeal. “My child, there’? only one thing to ask of ye. Did you marry this mon? Can ye remember?” Joyce shuddered, and she looked at the priest hopelessly. “Tes, It is true,'' she answered. “I-married him.” A cry broke from Lee’s -lips. He., re­ leased Joyce, and stood looking at her with the expression of a man who has received his death blow. ■ "Tes, it’s true, It’s true," said Joyce. She was' speaking now . with the calm­ ness of one for whom nothing matters. ^JBte came to me with the threat that he had my father'In bis power- and would betray him unless I Inarried-: him. It had been the terror of my father’s life for years, that some day he would be arrested for ,that old murder. •And therefore—yes, I married him, but I insisted that I was to finish my course before I lived with him as his wife. ,Then, last month, he wrote to me that he ,would wait-no longer. He said my father,'whom, he ia d helped to escape across the frontier, had re­ turned to the district, and that he would notify “the authorities unless I came u d to Ijiu immediately, ' “ A n d so I started, and—and God- knows I could bear it no longer,, and that is why He mercifully gave me ‘forgetfulness!” And, shuddering, she remained stanSing where she was like a ,cata­ leptic. “So ye Ieed there, too!” cried Father McGrath to Rathway In white- hot wrath. “Ye’ve proved yersel’ a triple leear the noo, for PellyJs deld—” “Dead?” shouted Rath way. “Aye, deid these mony months, and ye claimed he was alive, and in jnour power, so that ye could get possession of this putr girl ye’ve deceived—” 7 But he broke off, and Rathway made no reply, but watched him as he strode to the spot where Joyce was standing. Gently he took her hand In his and be­ gan to whisper In her ear. And all the while there was silence, and yet It seemed as if through that silence In­ numerable powers were In conflict— man against man, man against law, man against God. Then Lee cried out In a tone so wild that even Rathway and Rathway’s men appeared awed by It: “She’s, mine In th e' sight of God I Joyce, tell me that you care nothing for this trick that has been played on you! Tell me that you will defy this man and come away with me!” Rathway stepped forward, covering Lee with a pistol. “By heaven,” he swore, ‘T il blow your brains out If you meddle with me or mine, and there’s no court In this land will hold me guilty.” Lee scarcely seemed to be aware of him. He was holding out his arms to Joyce, and she was trembling, and looking at him, irresolute. Father Mc­ Grath was holding her hands and still whispering In her ear. And suddenly a dreadful change came over Lee’s face. Confidence was replaced by a look of mortal anguish. f “Joyce!” he cried wildly. Joyce looked at the priest, who step­ ped between them; but It was Joyce whom he addressed, not Lee. “My child, you married James Rath­ way of your a in free will,” he Bald. “The motive ’ has- na bearing on. - the situation. He didna constrain you by fear of- violence. ’Twas to save your father you did it, you say—aye, but 'twas to save him from the just proc­ esses of the law. There’s nae way oot, my dear. This man’s, your husband.” He looked at Lee. “’Tis the saddest thing I’ve known,” he said, “but ye see this makes the ceremony ye’ve been through valueless. There’s nae way oot o’ It—nane at all, lad. So you twa must e’en just say gnldbye.” Lee turned ,>to Joyce. He cried her name. She tottered toward him, hands outstretched, groping before her, as if she werp blind. She found him, their hands clasped each other thus during a period of silence that seemgd all eternity; com­ pressed lnto;a few moments. ' ' The words came monotonously from Lee’s lips: “Joyce, are you—going—to —that man who—calls—himself your —husband?” She bowed her head. Thelr eyes met, his In a dumb prolongation 6f that question, hers In mute, helpless agony, f Then suddenly Lee released her. He straightened himself, stood up stithy, and squared bis shoulders, as If he were on parade. And quietly he turned away. Then the silence was broken by a wild laugh from Rathway. There was something In that laugh more devilish even than in the situation. For It was amused, shameless, merciless, devoid of any human element; it was like the laugh that the hyena gives over ;he kiss of some nobler beast that It has supptanted. - .. “Put his pack out of my house, Pierre! 'Fling-W out into the stow !” he shouted, chuckling. “What, your pack, is it? Never mind, we’ll let him jceep It Can’t turn the poor devil out Into the snow to freeze. He’ll go to jail later on for stealing it.” He strode up to Joyce and clapped his hand ‘ upon her shoulder:- “Joyce, my dearie, have you-said goodbye , to your sweetheart?” he asked. “We’ll make this place our headquarters for a little honeymoon before going back to Slstcm lake—what d'you say to that?” The girl shrank under his touch. Rathway saw it and scowled; , But he turned toward Lee, his face-alight with triumph. “You—take yourself away with your stolen goods, and don’t let me catch you hanging round my wife again!” he shouted. “Or I’ll shoot you like the dog that you are. And, harken, Mr. Anderson! Don’tyyou ever dare to show your face among decent, men again, or I’ll have you jailed!” Father McGrath strode forward, his face "working with emotion, "Aye, James Rathway, ye’re feeling your, triumph the noo,’' he cried, “and the yellow cur’s come to the top In ye. But ye’ll remember, that there’s a higher power sometimes makes hash of e’en the best laid plans, James Rathway!” Then he strode to where Lee was standing, and clapped - his hand * on his shoulder. “Will ye nae come back to the; meeslon wl* me this night Meestair Anderson?” lie pleaded. But Lee stood like a stone, appear­ ing not to be conscious of the priest’s question, while Rathway, with an evil smile, put his arm round Joyce’s waist and led. her, unreslstant, • toward the log house, followed by his three aides.. And to McGrath that was the most awful moment in his whole career, and all the manhood In him urged him to fight fight to the death against <-hi« human sacrifice. It. was only- bis iJ ifs time of ; dUclpllne that held him at Lee's side. And, looking Into Lee’s vtony face, an immense pity swelled lip. In his heart Ih e door of the hut closed. Lee quivered and started as the 'priest’s hand fell on his shoulder again. “Lee,; lad; ye’U come back wl’ me,” Father .McGrath ,pleaded. An InartiCulatev sound like = that- of some animal broke from Lee’s lips. And, shaking himself free from the priest's friendly grasp, he picked up the rifle and the snowahoes, and went slouching off In the direction of the forest. Father McGrath took a step or two toward him, then, shaking his head, watched him as he made his way over the frozen ground. Into the darkness. Sighing, tbe priest burned back to the sleigh. He gathered up the reins; then, with an impulse of sudden fury, shook his fist toward the log house, lying peacefully enough In the bosom of the frozen valley, bathed In moon­ light VIf I werena a priest of God, and be­ lieve that He brings all things right In His guid time accordin’ to His weel, I'd throttle ye like the hound ye are I" he cried. C H A P T E R X V J cry ce F ig h t s a G o o d F ig h t Joyce let Rathway lead her inside the log house without offering any resistance. She moved like an autom­ aton under the. pressure of his arm. Inside the large room he released her. “Put down my pack!” he ordered Shorty, who was 'attending him. “Light some candles and pin some­ thing over the window, and then get out!” 1 •, In a minute Rathway and Joyce were alone. The girl shuddered as the candle light revealed the man’s face to her. She had seen It so many times in fearful dreams, and all the way np through the range. When she had married Rathway she had hoped against' hope, that something would Intervene to save ..her; bnt now the blow had fallen. And she stood quite still, her hands crossed on her breast waiting for what was. {o come. Then Rathway seized her In his •arms.. He kissed Jier lce=cold Ups1- cheeks, eyes, and throat His bands went pawing over her.' And as she still BtoolT unreslstant and unrespon­ sive, his passion grew the fiercer, and mingled with fury at the realization that this girl, so submissive in bis arms, was his in body alone. He released her and, In his rage, began to growl out jeers and curses. uA different honeymoon from what you were expecting, Joyce girl!” he cried. “No, no, the same honeymoon, but a, different husband. A better -one, eh, my girl? Well, can’t you speak? Which of your two men do you pre­ fer?” ' But Joyce'made no reply. “Tou’ve answered me, you drab!” Rathway shouted. “So you’ve been living with him. on the trail Iiiese two week's past! By heaven, I was a.fool to take you back from him without killing him! You thought Pd swallow that He about your having forgotten you were a married woman, did you? Did you ever hear' of a woman forget­ ting that she was married?” Joyce only watched him with a fixed gaze that made him uneasy. “You won’t pretend to me that yonr relations..with him were Innocent, I suppose?” Still Joyce^said nothing, and Rath­ way grasped her ,by the wrists. “Answer m e! Were they?” “Yes, they were innocent.” ' The words Issued mechanically from her lips. He glared at her,. incredulous, wanting to be convinced, unable to be. Of course .the girl was lying. He would rather have -known the worst thanl remain in that state of uncer­ tainty. He didn’t understand her. It was barely; possible, no more. He was choking at the sight of her—his, yet In spirit a world away. And suddenly he fell upon his knees, seized her hands, and began Impressing kisses upon them'. “Forgive me!” he stammered. ‘Tm mad vrith jealousy. I know you were unconscious and at his mercy when he took you away. You weren't to blame. I love you, Joyce. ,I’ve always been' mad about you, you know that.' Once, when I lost my head, your father shot me. Won’t you forget this other man, this Anderson? He means no good to you. He’s after that mine, no doubt, and that’s why he forced his company upon you In the range. ‘‘Forget him, Joyce. I love you. I’ll make you a good husband, and yon shall be a rich woman. We’ll give np this life here and*go south, where people know how to llvel Can you love. me, Joyce?” “No,” she answered, “I don’t love you. I have always hated you.” “By heaven. I’ll show you!” ( T O B B C O i m N t J B D . ) ' What One’s Eyet TeU We are told that the eyes of the In­ tellectual .man are gray, and It is a fact that most men of genius have gray eyes.

Raleigh, April 20 .— Finding bis two fine cows dead beside a whiskey still in a patch of woods som e dis tance from Bis home, George Mark­ ham, Cedar Fork farmer, got his trusty shot gun, planted him self near the still and waited two days for the operators. H e was reward­ ed this m orning when a young white man, giving his name as Cliffyrd Royster, showed up for the evident purpose of putting the plant to work. Markh.au march ed him to a deputy sheriff,- and Royster is now in jail, in default of a $500 bond, aw aiting trial on a charge of distilling. Au exam ination of tlie cows dis­ closed that they had drunk the mash while it was in a state of fer­ m entation. • .
