One idea of a modest lawyer, is the one who was allowed a fee of $17.5,000 by the Court, and volun tarily cut it to $166,000. A Mistake,Probably. ■ : “Some people do not know when they are welt off in coping with the problems of life,” the Mooresville Enterprise, deplores, and offers for example: .. A farmer was in our office one day this week, having some sale tfotices.struck; He was asked why Ije was selling offhis farm products live stock, etc.,-and his reply was .that he intends Amoving to town. -He was asked.if he had not been doing well on the farhi, rented land His reply was that be got along very well, but decided to move to town to,enter upon public work. He has no trade and will depend Ori what labor he can secure.- from day to days as a common laborer to pay house rent, lighfand water bill, fuel, groceries, etc. This year’s crop netted h'm eight bales of wheat, ten tons of wheat straw, shucks, etc. He owns'two mules, wagons,, cow, has meat enough to run him for a year and numberless chickens. . He has a car and good roads to. his front, door. We wish him well in his undertaking, but pity his family when it conies to having all the little thing all the little things that ^ne is accustomed to have when living on the farm The record of this tenant farmei’s crops and the list of his possessions indicate that he has the habit of working, and some head for work ; ing, as, well as able hands. A ba-- bit of industry is a fairly- depend able possession, although it can. -be lost. ThB chances are this man will do tolerably well, wherever he .gOeS.,',-.---..::V... • .-.-T-V;-,...--.-.-.-...'/ Yet he is probably making a mis take in moving his family to town. He could buy a little place on a good road, in a desirable commu nity, near a good school; and he would have or could provide- .most of the advantages of as social, cul- turl and sanatary' nature that he would get by towns residence If he no longer cares to put in his time farming, the difference in cost 'between living on a small place of his own would more than pay for Iits own would more than pay for his time and cost of 'transportation between home and work. And what town advantages he did not have could be easily got by taking the family to town for a few hours, evenings. AU this is assuming that the man would be able to finance the purchase of a place and building a house; and almost any able-bodied, industrious, reasonably intelligent person of good character can do that. He would have his nose to the grindstone for a long while; but while he would have to sweat to pay-fent, he would be paying, most of it to himself. The artisan and the unskilled laborer who are sitting pretty these days are those who live in the country and get a party of their living off their own land.—Greensboro News'. German Father of 84 Children. _ The Vienna medical association journal reports the story of a Ger man now 76 years old, who has been twice married and is the fa ther of 87 children, 84 of whom are living. ' Bernard Schienberg, living near the German border had 69 child ren by his first wifejplio had died at the age of 56, the journal says. Not one was a single birth. There were fo u r quadruplets, seven trip lets and 16 paiis of twins. Sixty- seven of the children are living, but he admits having lost count of- the grandchildren. Schienbergers se c o n d marriage at the age of.57 was blessed with 18 children, including two sets of- triplets; His. second wife is still living. ■ " Keeping Escapes in Dark Although three convicts escaped from the State farm at' Caledonia, •Halifax county, Tuesday night of last week, the prison 0ISoiaTs did not give out the information ah in quiry was. received- Froaf-^Pennsyl- vania in regard to the prisoners. It seems to be.the custom of the wonderful Priso-Twnanagement un der George Ross Pou, the govern nor’s political pet and the rubber scamp .board of directors to keep ail such escapes from the public as Iong- as possible. The three men who escaped and who have not been retaken are Martin J. Tabor, alias James D Groff, Durham, serving a sensence of five’to 10 years’ for larceny atid store breaking. ' . - Bill Cook, of Hsrnett county, serving three, to five years ,for bur glary. Lawrence Vaughn, Bucc9mbe-‘ county, serving two to three, years for store breaking. The guard responsible for safer keeping of prisoners at the farrii, included the three who, escaped;: went to supper at 6 o’clock* leaving their cells fastened he claims on the outside with staples and hasps' held by woo'den pins.

Carelessness. I am more powerful than-the combined armies of the world. ' I am more deadly than bullets; and have ,wrecked more homes than« _the mightest of siege guns. I steal each JrSar from the United States millions of dollars. I spare Bone, I fare with the rich, and poor alike, young and old, weak and strong. I lurk in unseen places, and do my work silently, killing thousands each year, at railroad. Crossings, on-the highways, travel ers by auto, aud many other ways, and I carelessness steal upon them. You are warned against me, but you heed me not. I am relentless. I am every where!’ in the home, on the.street, in the factory at rail road crossings, and on the . sea.

Hayes. The WilmingtonNews-Dispatch, a Democratic newspaper, says that “many thangs are ,said ,during the campaigu which after reflection would not be said.' Whatever has been said abont the compaign con ducted Mr. Hayes or the party for which he was fighting there is one thing which could not be said and that he did not conduct a Splendid campign.” ■ Mr. Hayes made an address in Wilmington during the early part of the campaigu and was royally treated by the people of that city, even if a majority of them did vote against him. ‘ Mixed” Farming. The WaU Street Journal: “Exponents of niverbifien farming can always find something optimistic about the failure of any. particular crop or a serious decline in price. If the cotton crop is too small they im mediately declare that it is a good thing becausein the long run it will increease diversified farming. These' Arguments are doubtless good, but some sections'of the country would understand them better if they said^mixed farming.’. The presid ent of one of the northwest roads says that in this territory the farm ers speak of ‘mixed^ and not diversi fied farming. Indeed, it is mixed farming for one sees stock cars with bogs in one end, cattle in the, other end and sheep in the middle, he con eluded.” ______’ Tobacco has been bringing a go6d price all thistseason and now watch out for-tHe biggest crop ever known, to be planted next spring And if all signs do not fail ^tobacco will be in the same class with cot ton next full and the prices will be low. Farmers should get together and decide not to put such big crops of any one commity but if they per sist in doing so there is no law to prevent it and never will be.— Union.Republican * Whem you. .can pay. your bills -Witii the same cheer that you re ceive money you wij]__be a better man iban we arer ..

This is perhaps the most convenient place for the horn button, unless it is placed on the steering wheel itself, which-.causes continual twisting of the wires, and is, therefore, not to be pre ferred.". The tubing may be ft incli in diameter, and issiot'ted for-a suitable distance from each end.

Decrease Seen in Bovine TB. Million “Reactors” Have Been Eliminated in Va rious Sections. Backways Permit Faster Traveling on Highways Many traffic experts do. not share the popular belief that if car registra tions continue to increase at the pres ent rate there will be no road or street on' which to drive Jn comfort They point to a number of significant trends which they declare are serv ing, to lessen congestion by distribut ing the traffic. To illustrate this point they cite a typical case where a motorist, formerly accustomed to taking two days to make a trip be tween large cities via the main high way, which took Iiim through two of the largest cities in the country, re cently made the trip In one day via the “back way.” This man's car was on the highway one day. as against two as on former trips. This meant one less ,car on the more heavily trav eled highway.

The, Department of Agriculture, through the bureau of animal indus try, has just announced that federal inspections show; tuberculosis among cattle and swine has decreased gen erally. According to the report, since 1917 more than a million “reactors” to the bovine tuberculosis tests have been removed from the cattle of the United States. Because tuberculosis poultry have been infecting swine, the report says, fowl tuberculosis Is. now receiving special study. Text of Announcement. The full text of the announcement follows: According to charts prepared In the bureau of animal industry, United States Department of Agriculture, bo vine tuberculosis has shown a gen eral decline since 1916, and tuber culosis of swine has decreased since 1924. The charts, which are based on records of federal meat Inspection, cover a sufficiently large number of animals to be considered representa tive of conditions in the cattle and swine industries. Though the improvement of the tu berculosis situation is shown, infec tion among cattle and swine received at federally inspected packing estab lishments is still rather extensive. Records for the fiscal year 1026 show that nearly 14 per cent of swine showed tuberculosis to some extent, though lesions were Of a minor na ture in a large proportion of the cases. Tiie corresponding figure for cattle was 1.3 per cent for the same period. In 1916 about 2.3 per cent of cattle showed infection, I per cent more than last year. In 1924 about 15.2 per cent of the swine inspected were diseased. Reports from field workers indicate that the large extent of infection among swine is caused partly by tu berculous poultry. Accordingly, fowl tuberculosis has been receiving spe cial study by tuberculosis-eradication officials. Coincident with the decline of this disease among cattle and hogs, a de creasing human death rate from tu berculosis Is shown by a recent re port of flie Department of Commerce.' The low death rate of children under four years may be attributed in part to the aggressive campaign for test ing tuberculous cattle and disposing of reactors. Since 1917, when the present tuberculosis campaign was undertaken, mor'i than a million reac tors have been removed from the cat tle of the United States. Better Soil Fertility by Using Rotation Plan The Ohio experiment station has doubled the average acre yields on its farm during the last 25 years. For. a number of years that institution has been getting an average of 70 bushels of corn, 30 bushels of wheat and 2.5 tons of clover hay per acre. These crops have been obtained on fields that have been in a tliree-year rotation for a quarter of a century, consisting of corn, wheat and clover. Prof. F. E. Bear of the soils department of that station says that not only must a rota tion of that sort be faithfully carried -out in order to obtain such yields, but that a lot of other things must be done as well. This is expressed in the fol lowing words: “The rotation must in clude clover and alfalfa or some other legume at least once every third year. The crops must all be fed, or enough concentrates must be fed to compen sate for the hay or grain sold. The barnyard must not leak. AU liquids must be saved. Hot fermentation of the manure must be stopped. Acid phosphate must be used regularly. Limestone must be applieu as required. Then high yields are guaranteed.” •Straw Contains MucK of „ Phosphorus and P&tash Straw contains a great deal of phos phorus and potash as well as organic matter. These are all essential ma terials for plant growth. Their/ con tinual, destruction or loss through burning straw stacks will .finally ne cessitate replacing them through com mercial fertilizers—and commercial fertilizers are expensive. The only time a straw stack should be burned is when it is full of weeds. In such cases more , damage is often done by returning the'weed seeds to the land than the benefit derived from the straw as a fertilizer.—Extension Service, Colorado Agricultural College. If we plan ahead, we should never get far behind. Sudan grass Is the best nonlegume to use for hay pasture.* * ' * The formalin treatment for oat smut is well known to farmers and scarcely needs to be restated.* # * Crop rotation can be practiced usu ally with no outlay of money, whereas the use of commercial fertilizers re quires an expenditure of money.* * * Cyanide gas reduces rat population in corn cribs, barns, etc., as quickly and effectively as anything yet di? covered, recent trials- in many low; counties indicate. j t r i v i n g f o r L a r g e I n c r e a s e s sO f C r o p s Of Importance to Recognize Three Factors. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) It is frequently pointed out by the bureau of soils of the United States Department of Agriculture that the nation will have to depend upon, the cultivation of the soli for about one- third of its combined wheat, corn and oats produced; upon crop rotation foi another third, and upon the use of manures and commercial fertilizers for the other third. It is logical that cul tivation aids both rotation and fertili zation, that rotation aids in rendering fertilizers more effective, and that fer tilizers increase the value of rotation. Recent experiments in Illinois, ^how ever, bring out the fact that rotation and the use of fertilizers, when prac ticed together, may interact to the ex tent that their conjoin effects, as meas ured In terms of crop increases, may be not only equal to but greater than the sum of their separate effects. The average yield of corn obtained without fertilizers and rotation in this particular experiment was 23.4 bushels per acre. The gain due to using fer tilizers and lime was 9.2 bushels per acre, and the gain due to rotation alone was 27.S bushels, or practically three times that obtained from the fer tilizers and lime. The total increase effected by conjoining rotation and the use of fertilizers was 44.2 bushels per acre, or 7.2 bushels greater than the sum of their separate increases. ' Other experiments have corroborat ed these results, which emphasize tli* importance of recognizing all three factors in striving for permanent soil productivity. Ten Good'Commandments for Successful Farmei The following so-called ten com mandments for the farmer, compiled from reports on an assignment to stu dents in farm crops, Iowa State col lege, are interesting and contain a good deal of practical common sense : 1. Thou shalt have no other business before farming. 2. Thou shalt not deny thy farm lime, but give it manure, legumes and phosphorus, also. 3. Thou shalt not permit thy fields to scatter weeds and diseases to pro voke thy neighbor’s wrath. 4. Thon shait keep a record of Kiy crops and thy flocks so that thou may est know wherein thy profit lieth. 5. Thou shalt beware of the seed ot strangers for thou knowest not wlial it may bring forth. 6. Thou shalt sow what the people desireth, for great is the reward thereof. 7. Thou shalt watch thy neighbor and procure for thine own fields those seeds which profiteth most in tliine own community. 8. Thou shalt not permit thy seed to fall on poorly prepared ground, but be wise that thine efforts increaselii tliy yields. 9. Thou shalt cast new seed upon thy pastures and disk them also that they may bring forth many fold. 10. When thou liast done all these things put thy trust in God, expecting a bountiful reward-, for no man can do more. Manure Should Be Taken Directly to the Fields There is only one place where ma nure can be exposed to rains, and yet not lose its value. That is on the field. If the manure is comparatively free from'noxious weed seeds, this In the very place' for it, hauled and dis tributed direct from the barns, and if no field is ready for It, manure will benefit the pasture. While piling ma nure in the field-puts the plant food there, it gives the spots that the pile covers, the major portion. I saw one wheat field where this method had been used and the wheat at the spots was much higher and a deeper green, says a writer in an exchange. Every farm should have a manure spreader ready to receive all the manure as taken out, and it should be under a shed. Forest Trees Will Grow Readily From Good Seed Tree raising is not a long-time prop osition as many people believe, ac cording to Chester A. Lee, Extension ForesteF, Colorado Agricultural col lege. “One can grow his own trees from seed. Seed of the ash, backberry, box elder, honey locust, Russian olive, and the evergreens are now ripe. Before gathering a quantity of seeds, cut a few of them in two and see that thay are full of ‘m eat’ Where a good per centage of the seed is sound, pick as many as desired and plant in accord- unee to the suggestions outlined for each species in ‘The Farm Nursery for Forest Trees.’ ” Cornstalks for Horses The feeding of cornstalks to horsea that are idle during the winter will probably not cause them cle^nite in jury although there is very little feed caltie to them. If you have a consid erable amount, of this product on hand feed one-half as much oat straw as usual, making up the balance with the cornstalks. When spring time comes and you are ready to put your horses in condition fof their season's work, t h e cornstalks and the straw should liolh be dropped and a good quaillj hay substituted for them.

Tso1 though he did not confide this 1st to Bangs, he bad an engagement the afternoon, at a place where card rooms were quiet and ele- nt and the stakes high.

He quite forgot the f' In the mirror, and It was no ought of her that drew him back to York that night The plans of guests had changed, that was all. fe change brought him home at pen o’clock.

I He stopped short with a chuckle. The curtains of his French window were drawn apart, and in the mirror he saw the reflection of the girl as she stood In profile near her own un curtained window and slowly dressed her hair. It was wonderful hair, much more Wonderful down than up. Laurie stared with pleasure at the red-gold mass that fell down over the girl’s white garment Then, with a little shock, he realized that the white gar ment was a night-dress! It was evi dent that the girl thought herself safe from observation and was quietly mak ing her toilet for the morning. Well, she should be safe. With a quick jerk, Laurie drew together the heavy curtains that hung at the sides of the long window. Then, smiling a little, he slowly dressed. His thoughts dwelt on the girl. It was odd that she should be literally projected into his life in that unusual fashion. He had never had any such experience before, nor had he beard of one Just like IL It was unique and pleasant. It was especially pleasant to have her so young and. so charming to look at. He wished he knew her name and something more about her. His thoughts were full of her. . Before he left the room he parted the curtains again to open the win dow wide, following his usual pro gram. As he did so be glanced into his mirror. He raw her open win dow, but it was lifeless. Only his own disappointed face confronted him. CHAPTER III Laurie Meets Miss Mayo Laurie thought much that day about the girl In the mirror, and he was again home at eleven that night, to the wonder of Mr. Bangs, who freely expressed his surprise. Something pleasant been coming your way?” he tactfully asked. Laurie evaded the question, but he felt that something definitely pleasant had come his way. This something was a new InteresL and he had need ed a new interest very much. He hoped he would dream of the girl that nighL but as he and Bangs unwisely consumed a Welsh rabbit before they went to bed, he dreamed Instead of something highly unplensanL and was glad to be awakened by the clear sun, light of a brilliant January day. After breakfast he strolled across the square into the somber hall of the studio building on its southwest cor ner. The hall was empty, but he found and rang a bell at the entrance of a dingy elevator shafL The elevator descended without haste. When it had reached the floor, the colored youth in charge of it inhospitably filled its doorway and regarded the visitor with indifference. This young man was easy to look at, but he was no one he knew. Laurie handed him a dollar and the youth’s expression changed, first to one of surprise, then to the tolerance of a man who is wise and is willing to share his wisdom. The visitor went at once to the point of his visit. • “A young lady lives here,” he be gan. “She Is very pretty, and she has reddish hair and brown eyes. She has a studio In one of the upper floors, at the front of the. house. What’s her name?” The boy's face showed that he had instantly recognized the description, but he pondered dramatically. “Dat young lady?” he then said. 11Dat young lady mus’ be Miss Mayo, In Twenty-nine, on de top flo’. She jes’ moved in here las’ Tuesday.” “Where does she come from, and what does she do?” The boy hesitated. Wbat did- all this mean? And was he giving up too much for a dollar? Laurie grinned at him understanding^. “I don’t know her,” he admitted, “and I don’t expect to. Bd like to know something about her—that's all.” The youth nodded. He had the air of accepting an apology. “I reckon she come fum some fur’n place. But I dunno what she do,” he reluctantly admitted. “Mebbe she ain’t doin’ nothin' yiL She’s home mos’ de time.. She don’ go -out hardly ’tall. Seems Uke she don’ know many folks.”He seemed about to say more, but stopped. For a moment he obvious ly hesitated, then blurted out what be had In mind. 1 “One t’ing got me guessln’,” he mut tered''doubtfully. "Dat young lady, she don’t seem t’ eat nothin’ I” “What do you mean?” Laurie stared at him. The boy shoSied his feeL He was on uncertain ground. “Why, jes’ what I said,” he mut tered, defensively. “Folkses here either eats in or dey eats out. Bf dey eats In, dey has stuff sent In—roils an’ eggs an’ milk an’ stuff. Iike- dat. Ef dey ents ouL dey goes ouL reg’lar, to meals. But Mlss Mayo she doif seem to eat In or ouL Nothin’ comes In, an’ she don’ go out ’nough to eat Teg1Iar. I bln studyin’ ’bout it con- slder’ble," he ended; and, he looked unmistakably relieved, as if he had passed on to another a burden that was too heavy to carry alone. There was a chance that the boy might be all wrong in his Inferences, although this chance, Laurie mentally admitted, was slight. He knew the shrewdness of this youth’s type, the precocious knowledge of human na ture that* often accompanies such training and environment as he had had. Probably he suspected even more than he had revealed. Some thing must be done. Laurie drew a bill from his pockeL “How soon can you leave the ele vator?" he asked. “ 1Bout one o’clock.” “AU righL Now, here’s what I want you to do. Take this money, go over to the Clarence restauranL and buy a good lunch for that lady. Get some hot chicken or chops, buttered rolls, vegetables, and a bottle of milk. Have it packed nicely in a box. Have them put In some fresh eggs and extra rolls and butter for her breakfast. Deliver the box at her door as if it came from some one outside. Do that and keep the change. Understand?” “Yaah, sah!” The boy’s eyes and teeth were shining. “AU right. Go to It. PU drop in later this afternoon for your report.” Laurie turned and walked away. Even yet the experience did not seem real. It was probably all based on some foolish notion of the youth’s ; and yet he dared not assume that it was a foolish notion. He had the dram atist’s distaste for drama anywhere except In Its legitimate place, on the stage; but he admitted that sometimes jt did occur In life. This might be one of those rare occasions. Whatever it was, it haunted him. He lunched with Bangs that day, and was so silent that Bangs was moved to comment. "If you were any one else,” he re marked, 1Td almost think you were thinking!” Laurie disclaimed the charge, but his abstraction did not IifL By this time his imagination was hard at work. He pictured the girl In the mir ror as stretched on her virginal cot in the final exhaustion of starvation; and the successful effort to keep away from the studio building till four o'clock called for all his will power. Suppose the boy blundered, or wasn’t in time. Suppose the girl really had not eaten anything since last Tues day ! These thoughts, and similar ones, obsessed him. At four he strolled into the studio hall, wearing’what he hoped was a detached and casual air. When the elevator appeared, he entered it with ,the others who were waiting. He ’looked aloofly past the elevator boy as he did so, and that young person showed himself equal to the situation by presenting to this newcomer a stolid ebony profile. But when the lift bad reached the top floor and dis charged its passengers, the two con spirators lent themselves to the drama of their roles, “Well?” asked Laurie eagerly. “Did you get it?” “Yans, sah.” 11What happened?” The boy stopped his descending car midway between two floors. He had no intention of having his scene spoiled. He bulged visibly under the news he had to impart. “I got de stuff you said, and I Ief it at dat young lady’s do’,” he began impressively. “Yes.” “When I looked de nex’ time, It was gone.” “Good! She had taken It In.” Lau rie drew a breath of relief. “No, sah. Dat ain’t all.” The boy’s tone dripped evil tidings. “She brung it back!” “What!” His passenger was star ing at him in concern. “Yaas, sah. De bell rung fum 'her flo,’ and’ when I got up de young lady was standin’ dere w lddat basket in her hand.’’, He paused to give Laurie the effect of the tableau, and saw by his visitor’s expression that he had got It fully. “Yes? Go on!” “She look at me mighty sharp. She got brown eyes dat look right thoo you,” he interpolated briskly. “Den she say, 'Sam, who done Ief dat bas ket at my do’?’. I say, ‘I done it, miss. It was Ief in de hall, an’ de ca’d got yo’ name on IL Ain’t you order it?’ I say. “ ‘No,’ she say, 'dis yere basket ain't fo’ me. Take It, an’ ef you cain’t find out who belong to It, eat dis yere lunch yo’self.’ He paused. “I et 1L” he ended, solemnly. Laurie’s lips twitched under con flicting emotions, , but he closed the in terview with a fair imitation of indif ference. "Oh, well,” he said carelessly, “you must have been mistaken about the whole thing. Evidently Miss Mayo, If that’s her name, wasn’t as hungry as you were.” The boy nodded and started the car on its downward Journey. As his pas senger got off on the ground floor, he gave Iiim a new thought to carry away with him. “She’d bin cryln’, dough,” he mut tered. “Her eyes was all red.” Laurie stopped and regarded him resentfully. “Confound you!” he said, "what did you tell me that for? I can’t do any thing about it!” The boy agreed, hurriedly. “No, sah,” he assured him. “You cain’t. I cain’t, neither. None of us cain’t,” he added as an afterthought. Laurie slowly walked away. His thoughts scampered around and around, like squirrels In a cage. The return of the basket, »f course, might mean either of two conditions—that the girl was too proud to accept help, or that she was really in no need of it. Laurie had met a few art students. He knew that, hungry or not, almost any one of them would cheerfully have taken In that basket and con sumed its contents. He had built on that knowledge in providing'it. If the girl had taken it In, the fact would have proved nothing. Her refusal to touch it was suspicious. It swung the weight of evidence toward the eleva tor boy’s starvation theory. Laurie’s thoughts returned to that Imaginative youth. He saw him con suming the girl’s luncheon, and a new suspicion crossed his mind. Perhaps the whole business was a bit of graft. But his Intelligence rejected that sug gestion. If this had been the expla nation, the boy would not have con cluded the episode so briskly. He had got the strange young man where he might have “kept him going” for days and made a good income in the proc ess. As It was, there seemed noth ing more to do. And yet—and yet— how the deuce could one let the thing drop .like that? If the girrwas really in straits— Thua the subconscious argument went on and on. It worried Laurie. He was not used to such violent men tal exercise. Ee dined alone that night and it was well he did so. His lack of appetite would certainly have attracted the attention of Bangs or any other fellow diner, .and Bangs would as certainly have commented upon it. Also, he passed a restless night, troubled by vaguely depressing dreams. The girl was in them, but everything was as hopelessly confused as his daytime mental- processes had been. The next morning he deliberately kept away from the mirror until he was fully dressed, but he dressed with a feeling of tenseness and urgency he would have found it dlfllcult to ex plain. He only know that today be meant to do something definite, some thing that would settle once for all the question that filled his mind. But what could he do? That little point was still unsettled. Knock at the girl’s door, pretend that it was a blunder, and trust to Inspiration to discover in the brief encounter Jf any thing was wrong? Or put money In an envelop and push it under her- door? Xf he .did thaL she would prob ably give the money to Sam, as she had given him the food. The girl In the mirror acts— and speaks. CTO BE CONTINUED.) Exposure a Factor for Window Plants Besults In window boxes are largely dependent upon the right flowers for the exposure. It is not possible to have window boxes at every window identical with those at every other window If the exposure is different, but they may harmonize. For sunny locations use nasturtiums, verbena, sweet alyssum, petunia, pan sy, cornflower, snapdragon and mar guerite; for shady places, nonflower ing plants—the ferns, palms, English ivy, begonia, trailing evonymus, as paragus sprengeri. Drooping effects may be had from lobelias, sweet alys sum and others. For half shady win dows, hanging fuschla with bush fuschla, or bush fuschla with mar guerites and vincas or. hanging pe tunia with cobea seandens, or pink fuschia, white marguerites and vincas can be combined. Verbenas may be planted alone as they form a luxuriant •nass of bloom and foliage. Pansies and sweet alyssum are a delightful Laurie 'besitated. The sl^at.on was ' -^ In a tU in presenting a new angle and a wholly unexpected one. It began to look as if he had come on a sentimental er rand and had stumbled on a tragedy.

Uses Small Hunting Ax to Down Angry Ammtd Threatening Infant, - Edmonton, Alta.—A girl wife’s bat tle with a huge black bear, her only weflpon a short hunting ax, and the life of her six-months-old child at stake, is the latest story -of hero ism which has come out of the Por cupine river districL in the. foothills west of here. The heroine is Julle Laflamme, pretty, seventeen-year-old half French and half Indian wife of Jules La- fiamrde, trapper. Accompanying her husband on a trapping expedition, with her baby slung, Indian fashion, In a birch-bark cradle over her back, Julie later hung her precious burden from a low-hanging limb of a spruce tree, while she went picking cranber ries. Falls Into Bear's Den. Intent on her quest, the girl slipped Into a cavernous hole at the foot of 'a giant spruce tree. Her mocoaslned foot touched something warm and soft, something which snarled with a wild beast’s rage, and two tiny bear cubs emerged from the hollow. A moment later a far more formidable figure followed them Into sight—the mother bear. Snarling and spitting, the animal mother, anxious for the safety of1 her cubs, advanced on the human mother, equally anxious for the safety of her babe; for within a few yards of the Advanced on the Human Mother. giant beasL the chubby papoose swung in its cradle. One sweep of the bear’s huge forepaw and the babe would be fatally mangled. Julie snatched from her belt the pitifully tiny hunting ax which hung there and hurled herself upon the ad vancing whirlwind of death. The bear’s huge paw whizzed past her face, tearing out a wisp of black hair, but missing the flesh by a fraction of an inch. Kills the Bear. Then, with a lightning like blow, the girl-mother struck with every ounce of her strength., The ax bit deep Into the skull of the bear, and the huge bulk lurched to the ground, within a foot of the papoose’s cradle.

Th© context (v. 36) clearly Implies what is elsewhere positively declared (John 15:19-21; Luke 21:17) that the followers of Christ will be hated and opposed. In this lesson Christ sets forth the principles governing the life of bis followers. I. "Love Your Enemies" (v. 27). Love here is not a natural affection. To love friends is easy, but to love enemies Is only possible to those who have been made partakers of the di vine nature—been bom- again. II. "Do Good to Them Which Hate You” (v. 27). Love is positive In its nature. The true Christian will not merely refrain from doing injury to one who hates him, but Will be concerned with and engaged in doing good to him. True love acts according to Its own essen tial nature. III. "Bless Them That Curse You” (v. 28). To bless means to speak well of—to invoke a blessing upon. Injury by words is hard to let go unchallenged. The one who is a child of God and al lows the Spirit of his Maker and Re deemer to express Itself through him will return blessings for cursings. IV. "Pray for Them Which Despite, fully Use You” (v. 28). VVe should pray for those who abuse us. The best commentary on this precept is Christ's own example (Luke 23:34), “Father forgive them for they know not what they do.** When Christ was reviled He reviled not again. When He suffered, He threatened not, but committed Him self to Him that judgeth righteously. (I PeL 2:23). V. Patiently Endure Wrong and In jury" (v. 29). The Christian is not to bristle in defense of- his rights but rather to suf fer Insult, Injury and even loss. This expresses the law which should gov ern the individual’s actions, but should not be pressed so far that evil doers can go unchecked. BIghtly con stituted government has been ordained of God for the protection of the inno cent and the punishment of evildoers (Bom. 13:1-8). VI. Give to Every One That Ask- eth of Thee (v. 30). God Is the supreme example. He gives freely and generously but Intel ligently. This text does not author ize indiscriminate giving. There Is a giving which injures the one to whom the gift is made. To give a man money to buy whisky would be wrong. VII. Do as You Wish to 'Be Done By (v. 31). This is called the Golden Rule. It Is the sum total of Christian duty as It pertains to human interrelations. Hu man beings carry with them the con sciousness which Is the touchstone Which teaches them tbelr duty to oth ers. If men were to live up to this rule the problem of capital and labor would be solved and end would be put to war. International relations would be peaceably adjusted and all profi teering In business would end. Prac ticing this precept proves that we are children of God. Loving those who love us, doing good to those who do good to us, lending to those who lend to us. is the common practice even among sinners. No new birth, no Holy Spirit needed to live this kind of life. VIII. Be Merciful (v. 36). This means to be filled with pity and compassion. To enter into sym pathy with every need of others. The supreme example as to this is the - Heavenly Father. IX. Censorious Judgments Con demned (v. 27). Tbis means that we should not seek out the evil or faults In others for our satisfaction. W e. should not sit in censorious judgment upob the ac tions of others. However, it does not prohibit the just estimation of the character of others by their deeds. X. The' Compensations of Right Liv ing (v. 38) The one who gives freely of money, loves sincerely, makes the Golden Rule the standard of his life, shows mercy and kindness to others, and refrains from impugning the motives of others will be fully rewarded In kind God will see to it that there, be no loss. ’ Keeping- the Mouth Closed If a man can keep his mouth closed it Is a sure sign that he could say something if he opened IL -King’s Business.

NEWS REVii OF CURRENT EVENTS Doings of Congress Prior to Adjournment for Christ mas Holidays. By EDWARD W. PICKARD CONGRESS adjourned Wednesday night for the holidays, and will not reassemble until January 3. Though the house was quite busy In the week precediug the recess, most of the in terest centered In the senate. Tues day night the house river and harbor bill was put to a vote, and despite the bitter attack that had been made on parts of it, the measure passed by the overwhelming vote of 57 to 9. Those . voting in the negative were Couzens of Michigan, Frazier of North Da kota, Howell and Norris of Nebraska, Lenroot of Wisconsin, Willis of Ohio, Republicans; and Blease of South Carolina, Ferris of Michigan and King of Utah, Democrats. As passed by the senate the measure carries appropria tions of .$75,000,000, almost 510,000,000 In new projects and surveys being added In the closing hours of debate. TIierefore it went to conference, but ,yvith a certainty that the differences 'would be adjusted. For the Middle West the item of great interest is that providing for completion of the Illinois river link of the lakes-to-the-gulf waterway by the construction of a channel in the river nine feet deep and 200 feet wide from Utica to its" mouth. A clause was in serted which specifies that the meas ure shall not be construed as author izing water diversion from Lake Mich igan. “This gives Illinois a gateway to the ocean,” Senator Deneen asserted. “We will be on the longest waterway In the world, running from the Gulf of Mex ico to the St. Lawrence river. The Illinois provision satisfied the senate and I am sure it will satisfy the house.” Aside from the Illinois Improvement, the most important items in the meas ure include an authorization of $12;- 000,000 for beginning the improvement of the Missouri river between Kansas City and Sioux City; an agreement for the purchase of the Cape Cod canal for $11,500,000, and $4,000,000 authori zation for the construction of the .in tracoastal waterway from Jacksonville, Fla., to Miami. Senators Gooding of Idaho and Pitt man of Nevada attempted to tack on a long and short haul rider but were defeated and said they would bring up that measure at a later date. SENATOR HARRIS of Georgia on Monday introduced a resolution for investigation of charges that fed eral appointments in the South are commonly ^bartered" and sold by Re publican national committeemen. This went to the judiciary committee, and Senator Ernst of Kentucky moved that the resolution be broadened to in clude similar charges against Demo-1 cratlc leaders and to inquire into the- extent of the disfranchisement of Ne groes In the South with a view to the enforcement of the Fourteenth amend ment to the Constitution. This nat urally didn’t please the Democrats at nil, and the matter was referred to a subcommittee. THE case of Frank L". Siuith of Illi nois, appointed by Governor Small to fill out McKinley’s unexpired term, kept the senate on tiptoe. Smith was presumed to have accepted - the ap pointment, though he did not appear to !present Ills credentials, and Demo crats and Republicans alike, with some exceptions, were ready to throw him out when he should show up. Watson of Indiana, assistant Repub lican leader of the senate, said: “Smith can come down here if he tikes, but in my opinion the senate {Will1 take summary action In his case land without delay.” McNary of Ore- Igon said: “There are too many votes !against seating him ever to permit .him to take the oath,” and this was ; echoed by various others. Ashurst of I Arizona declared he would call up-his resolution disqualifying Smith as soon as his certificate of appointment was presented to the senate, It is to avoid the possibility of an extra session of congress that the Re publican leaders are lining up against Smith and in favor of an immediate vote on the Ashurst resolution without too much debate. Adoption of the res olution would send the whole matter to "the Reed committee, taking it oft the floor until supply bills and other Important legislation can be dis posed of. SENATOR HEFLIN of Alabama broke loose Monday with a speech in which he repeated the old story that Jess W. Smith, confidant of Harry Daugherty when the latter was at torney general, did not commit suicide but was, murdered. He asse. d that Smith was slain to prevent exposure of a plan whereby Secretary of the Treasury Mellon was to be reimbursed for a loan of $5,000,000 to the Harding- Coolidge campaign fund by contribu tions forced from bootleggers and brewers. “Jess Smith knew so much that it was desired to get rid of him,” declared Heflin. “We were conduct ing a general investigation of the whole thing. It was rumored, also, that Jess, Smith grew exceedingly nervous over it and that he had made up his mind to make a clean breast of it all, but Jess never lived to make that clean breast. He died. He was murdered.’’ “Sounds like delirium to me,” was Secretary Mellon’s only comment when told of Senator Heflin’s attack. PRESIDENT COOLIDGE let It be known that he will not approve appropriations for the construction of additional cruisers for the navy at this session of congress. This followed on the action of the house naval af fairs committee in submitting formal ly the Butler bill authorizing the build ing of ten light cruisers with the unanimous recommendation that an appropriation be made at once for the completion of the three cruisers- al ready authorized In the 1924 building program. It was stated at the White House that while acknowledging the need of more cruisers if the fleet is to be rounded out as a balanced unit In comparison with other, major powers, the President feels the present naval construction bill is heavy enough for the American public to stand at this time. He is Insistent that the present airplane carriers, the Lexington and the Saratoga, together with fleet sub marines now building, should be com pleted before cruiser building is begun. FIVE bills revising postal rates were passed by the house. One is for restoration of the one cent rate for private post cards; another author izes transmission of business reply cards, the return postage of. not more than two cents to be paid by the original mailer when the card Is re turned. A third bill amending the postal act would fix at one cent an ounce the rate on publications when mailed as second-class matter by others than the publisher or his agent. An other would provide for an additional charge on flrst-class matter mailed with insufficient postage. EFFORTS of the house and senate conference committee to agree on legislation to regulate radio broad casting were futile and the matter was deferred until January 4. If no agree ment, is reached next month the house conferees purpose to move the pas sage of an emergency resolution'sus pending the granting of broadcasting licenses pending regulatory legislation by the Seventieth congress. Re p r e s e n ta tiv e b la c k of New Tork, author of a pending bill under which the United States would relinquish Its'extraterritorialty rights in China, sharply attacked the report of Silas H. Strawn on-condi tions there. He said Mr.- Strawn’s utterances since he returned from China have not only created a wrong impression here and In China as well, but have “worked irreparable harm to the American cause In China,” and compelled President Coolldge to point out that they "express merely Mr. Strawn’s personal opinion and not the policy of the administration.

The council of ministers of Portugal has voted to return the territory south of the Rovnma river, known as the Kionga triangle, this being a part of the former German East Africa that was allotted to Portugal by the treaty of Versailles. POPE PIUS, as an allocution In pri vate consistory, made a strong at tack on the Fascist state which has aroused much comment. The pontiff, while expressing thanks for the es cape of Mussolini from assassination, dealt harshly with the duce’s followers for depredations and deeds of " vio lence against the persons and property of Catholics. The government refuses to be drawn into a controversy with the pope because, it says, the past acts he referred to have not been re peated In recent weeks and the orders of the government for the preserva tion of order have been severe. '—_ 1 N EITHER Brazil nor Argentina is said to like the plan which Secre tary of State Kellogg suggested to end the Tacna-Arlca dispute, and now it is understood Peru has offered an al ternative scheme, which probably has no chance of acceptance by Chile or Bolivia. According to a La Paz paper, this is Peru’s offer: 1. Peru will remain in possession of Tacna and the city of Arica, including Morro castle, which protects the har bor. 2. Peru and Chile, In common agree* ment, without demanding any pecuni ary or territorial compensation, will cede to Bolivia all territory south of Tacna and iArlca as far as the River Camarones. , 3. Chile will retain possession of the Chilcaya nitrate field. * 4. Bolivia will remain In possession of the port of Vltor, which is the only one that exists In that zone.

Leominster, Mass.—When he returned unexpectedly after a year In Florida, Constantine Leger completed an “eter nal triangle” which sent his wife and the “other man” to their deaths. •Upon arriving In Leominster unan nounced, Leger knocked on the door of his bungalow, bent on pleasantly surprising Ijis wife. “Who is it J" asked a voice which he recognized as that of his wife. 4Tt is Constantine,’’ he replied. “Well, .wait just a minute,” said his wife. Leger waited several minutes, then pushed open the door and entered the kitchen. His wife faced him in si lence. From another room came Don 0. Clark, father of four children. Clark produced an automatic pistol and told Leger he had better leave the house before he was killed. Leger dared him to, shoot, then told his wife he would let her choose between them while he waited outside.. Instead, Leger called a policeman, and both entered the house. As they did, Clark shot and killed Leger’s wife. He then killed himselt ConvicTs Girl Wife Stays Faithful to Hint Brooklyn, N. Y.—Although her hus band kept from her the knowledge that-the long arm of the law constant ly was reaching out for him, little Marie Branigan Pryde’s love for the man 11 years her senior has remained constant and true. Even now, with Pryde—or Houde as his real name is—in jail completing the sentence interrupted when he fled prison, Marie waits patiently with her two children for his return to them. Marie lived In Brooklyn, N. Y., when Arthur Pryde entered her life. After their marriage, for some reason which she could not understand, Pryde in sisted on moving from place to place— Buffalo, Cleveland, New York city, Waltham, Mass. The blow fell while they were liv ing In New York city.' Detectives sud denly descended on their modest little home and dragged Arthur off to jail with them. But this was a second and rather expected blow, for a few months be fore she had learned her husband real ly was Arthur Houde, who had shot his first wife in a jealous rage and had been sent to prison for nine years. Now Marie is glad the suspense is over and that Arthur will no longer have to flee from the shadow of a prison when he rejoins her and the children after his sentence has been served. Oioorces Cave Man Who Kidnaped Her as Child Cleveland, Ohio.—Kidnaped when thirteen years old and forced to marry a man who, she says, stabbed her father; twenty-two years of fright and terror when she slept with a knife under her pillow—these were the high lights In the story told by Mrs. Pearl Rubin to Common Pleas Judge Harri son W. Ewing. At thirty-five the constant fear re mains and Mrs. Rubin, who owns a candy store here, was granted a di vorce. In 1904 Mrs. Rubtn lived with her parents near Warsaw141Poland.

Harrill, who is leadingthe State farm club boys’ program, at tributes the tendency among farm boys to rush away from the farm to the city to failure ou the part of farm fathers to appreciate the pos sibilities of making partners of the boys. Mr. Harrill should have had a splendid opportunity to make ob servation of the farm, clubs must have the coopeiation of his father iu order to carry out the prescribed program. The club boy gets the chance to use his own resources in a productive way, whereas many farm boys, Mr. Harrill finds, are deprived .by their fathers of any such opportunities. The trouble seems to be that some fathers cannot distinguish between firmuess and sternness in their desire to shape the destinies of their sons. No.r do they some- tini es'distiuguish the difference be tween father and son and master and servant. The father who. de sires that his son should become a successful farmer owes it to himJto give him every encouragement in learning the farming business. He might well afford to begin ear ly to teach the lad what he himself knows of farming and then per mit him to benefit from what others mav known. No farmer, we dare say, would want his son to be an unsuccessful farmer. It were bet ter to encourage him to get away from the soil than to permit him to drift in this direction. Farnji boys are deserving of cer tain pleasures and privileges as well as any otber...bpys, in the .opinion of 1Mr.''Harrill^ aiid if theif fathers treat them as partners as well as sons they will find more joy and less drudgery in farm life. and will want to stay on the farm. It is not the hard work that makes for drudgery on a farm, but the lack of reasonable privileges and plea sures. A boy who has 110 fun in wasting the best part of his life. We hear less these days though about the danger of depopulating the farm through migration of all young folks to the cities. The farm itself lias moved immearui: ably nearer town and city than it was ten or fifteen years ago. Good roads, better schools, the autonir- bile and other conveniences have <- bout destroyed th£ difference be- tween"the boy of the town By lioking at them 011 the streets you can’t tell the difference. Many ambitious boys are still going to- the towns and cities, but others just as ambitious for success are re maining on the farms and are equipped to produce more than two could under the methods em ployed on the average North - Caro lina farm a. decade or more go. Those who go Io the cities help increase their population and pro dnctiveness and at the same time provide a better market for the farms, and in this way bring a larger measure of prosperity to a- agriculture. There is undoubtly growing up between the dad of the farm and his son a.better understanding and the partnership that Mr. Harrill advocates is becoming more of a reality.—The Dispatch.

If not, you are surely nifSEing something worth while. Like everyone who sees them, at first glance you will be wanting a bouton niere to wear on your coat, or a shoul der bouquet They make charming ^rist bouquets, too, which, as you know, are quite the vogue this season. To buy as elnborate a costume corsage as the one photographed at the top of this group would be quite an expensive proposition—but why buy, when these lovely dress accessories can be made .S7& . exquisite If worked up In pastel shades of crepe paper.

Provide alEo "annealed” wire, such as Is used for making paper flowers, this same being very pliable but not brittle, and to this collection crepe paper of any chosen color. For the shoulder bouquet of half-blown, roses, proceed as follows: ^ Take a piece of crepe paper and stretch it slightly. For the three cen ter petals cut pieces eight inches long and four wide. Fold the strip length wise not quite In halt Stretch the metallic trlcotlne over this. Fold one corner down and start rolling In a for-granted that It Is to be of velvet Perhaps some of us are planning to indulge In “just one more new frock” to tide over midwinter to spring. To be sure it may correctly be of satin, crepe or fine woolen, but why hot join the majority and choose velvet? There’s nothing quite so pretty and practical, also appropriate for wintry days as a simply fashioned velvet frock, either in black or of color, fin ished at neck and sleeves with real crochet or filet collar and cuffs. Paris adds zest to the velvet mode by continuing to send over some rav ishing frocks. There is the one In this picture, for instance. It Is a creation from Jenny, designed for smart after noon wear. Its ermine bordered front apron panel at once attracts, in that it bears the cachet of the unusual. A lovely detail is the turquoise-blue ta* m Afternoon Frock of Velvet IooBe roll. Tie this firmly at the base Rith wire. For the six petals sur rounding the three flower centers, cut a strip of crepe paper a half inch wide across the grain.

These costume corsages ara feta which edges the narrow collar and cuffs of ermine. This touch of blue- whispers a secret In regard to spring fashions—a vogue for blue of all tones is on the way. • * If a dress entire of velvet does not carry appeal, here’s something sure to interest you—a sleeveless velvet jacket to be worn indoors over a crepe or satin frock. Quite the smartest Item of the moment is a fancifully em broidered jacket of velvet, sans sleeves, just below hip length, collarless and flowing open at the front, wlthoui fastening. One will readily see whai opportunities this jacket offers to adi‘ a style-touch to one’s crepe frock. V JULIA BOTTOMLEX. to !Mt, W uttra Nmpwvr Union.) ►Q- THE WORLD’S GREAT EVENTS ALBERT FAYSON TERHUNE (© by Dodd. Mead & Company.) Arnold von Wtnkelried SANDWICHED In between several large European nations is a Uttle, mountainous country made up of twen ty-two tltiy states. These states differ from each other In religion, p .!tics, industries, language and e hundred other points. Tet each and all are spendldiy patriotic and united In their compact little federation. Their unity and freedom were bought by centuries of bloodshed and heroic resistance of stronger powers. This confederation of united provinces, or “cantons," is Switzerland. It consists of former fragments of Italy, Germany and France welded Into one nation. A few of these can tons banded together In 1291 In a de fensive alliance against any outside foe, but particularly against Austria. Other cantons from time to time Joined the alliance, until by the end of the Fifteenth century Switzerland was practically an Independent coun try, with German, French and Italian as its official languages. The cbief promoters of the original union were the men of the Schwyz valley, and from these the names "Swiss” and “Switzerland” are derived. Switzerland's oldest and most re lentless enemy was Austria. Austria was a duchy, not an empire, in the early stages of the struggle and was ruled by the Hapsburgs. The Haps- burgs, eager to annex new territory, encroached on Switzerland. The hardy mountaineers endured but a brief pe riod of tyranny and soon flew to arms against their oppressors. Two heroes stand out as foremost In beating back the invaders. In 1315 an Austrian governor, Gess- Ier by name, was put In charge of the Uri district of Switzerland. Among other acts of tyranny he caused his hat to be mounted on a pale and com manded all passersby to bow to It WiUiam Tell, a peasant happened along, his crossbow slung over his shoulder and leading his tittle son by the hand. He refused to salute the hat. Gessler ordered his arrest. Learn ing that TeII was a famous marksman, the governor ordered him by way of punishment, to shoot an apple off his own son’s head. Tell accepted the perilous test, and at the first shot spilt the apple in half without, injuring the boy. Gessler was about to release him, when he noticed a second arrow stuck through the peasant’s belt and asked why it was there. “To shoot you if I had slain my son!” was Tell’s reply. Gessler, In fury, commanded- him to be bound, thrown Into a boat and rowed to the governor’s castle on Lake Lucerne. On the way a storm sprang up. The boat was In danger, and Tell, being a skilled sailor, was un bound and set at the helm. He steered the boat on a rock, leaped ashore and escaped, shooting Gessler through the heart as the latter reached land. Tell then Sed to the mountains and rallied his countrymen to resist the Austrian punishment that was certain to fol low. Nor was he mistaken In his be lief, for the Austrian Archduke Leo pold, with nearly 20,000 men, Invaded Switzerland. Less than 1,500 Swiss gathered to oppose Qie invasion, and took up a position at the top of a steep moun tain pass at Morgarten. The Austrians charged up the slippery slope, but were met by an avalanche of tree trunks and Bowlders hurled down by the defenders. After a fruitless ef fort to overcome the handful of moun taineers the Austrlans were driven back In wild disorder, leaving 1,500 dead on the field. This victory attracted other can tons to the federation and taught Europe a wholesome respect for the plucky little states. ButiSixty years later Leopold HI, nephew of the arch duke who was so soundly trounced at Morgarten, led an anny 6,000 strong against Switzerland. About 1,600 Swiss advanced to check him; and on July 9, 1386, the two armies met on a meadow slope near Sempach. The ground was uneven and mwrshy and broken by streams an<£ hedges. The heavy-armed, mounted Austriains could not deploy in such quarters as rapidly and skillfully a* the lightly, equipped Swiss Infantry. Tet by force of numbers they made headway against the weaker foe and left no weak place In their barrier of spear- polnts through which the patriots could break..' They were rapidly sur rounding the Swiss preparatory to cutting them to pieces, when Arnold von Winkelrled, from the canton of Unterwalden, rushed forward againsl the serried line of Austrian spears, and shouting, “Make way for Liber ty!” grasped all the spears within his reach and gathered their points to his own breast. As he fell, pierced through and through, the weight of his body dragged the spears’ points earthward with him, leaving a gap In the Aus trian line ^Phich his comrades rushed though, “over his dead body. The result of the battle of Sempach was to break Austria’s ' power In the united cantons. Other nations from time to time attacked the little free/ country, but with no better result. And so. through the centuries, the tiny Independent nation, whose watch word was ‘-‘Liberty!” wrenched victory from adversity and freedom from the stronger hinds*of oppression. .proving, even as the United States was Ittter destined to. prove;, that mere force and tyranny can never bind men who. ar» resolved to be free. mm No waste of time* Noloss of materials.

What are you.dolng le’s brilliant eyes were on hers as she spoke, and held them steadily. Under his expression, one that few had seen on his face, her look of an tagonism softened a little. He ad vanced slowly to the table between them. “It will take a. few minutes to ex plain,” he said. Then, as she waited, he suddenly formed his plan, and fol lowed the good old Devon principle of going straight to the point. “I live diagonally across the square," he said quietly, “and I can see Into your window from one of mine. So It happened that Just now I—I saw what you were going to do.” For an. Instant she stood very still, looking at him, as If not quite taking In the meaning of his words. In the next her face and even her neck crim soned darkly as if under the rush of a wave of angry humiliation. When she spoke her voice shook. “You forget," she said, “that you have no right either to look into my room or to Interfere with what you see there.” “I know,” he told her, humbly, “and I beg your pardon again. The looking In was an accident, the merest chance, which I will explain to you later. The Interference—well, I won’t apologize for th at Surely you realize that It’s— friendly.” For the flrst time her eyes left his. She looked around the room as if un certain what to do or say. 'Terhaps you mean It so," she mut tered at last “But I consider It—Im pertinent.” A change was taking place In her. The fire that had flamed up at his en trance was dying out, leaving her with the look of one who is cowed and al most beaten. Even her last words lacked assurance. Watching her In puzzled sympathy, Laurie for the flrst time wished himself older and wiser than he was. How could he handle a situation like this? Neither then or later did he ask himself how he would have handled It on the stage. For a moment the two young things gazed at each other, In helplessness and Irresolution on his side, in resent ful questioning on hers. Even In the high tension of the moment Laurie subconsciously took In the picture she made as she stood there, defying him, with her back to the wall of life. She was very lovely, more lovely than In the m irror; for now he was getting the full effect of her splendid coloring, set off by the gown she wore, a thing ot rich but somber shades, lit up by a semi-barbaric necklace of amber and gold, that hung almost to her knees. Yes, the girl was a picture against the unforgetable background of that tragic situation. But what he ad mired most of all was the dignity that shone through her panic and her de spair. She was up In arms against him. And yet, If he had not come, if that vision had not flashed Into his mirror five minutes ago, she might now have been lying a huddled, life less thing on the very spot where she stood so proudly. At the thought his heart shook. The right words came to him at last “I’ve had—Impulses—like - yours,” he said. “Fve had them twice. For tunately, both times there was some one around to talk me out of them.” He had caught hei attention. She showed that by the vay she looked at him. “The argument that impressed me m ost” he went on, “was that It’s quitting the game. You don’t look as If you were a quitter," he ended, thoughtfully. The girl’s eyes blazed. He had aroused her once more, and he was glad of I t He didn't know at all what to do or say, but he dimly felt that almost any emotion In her would be better than the lethargy she had just revealed. ‘Tm not a quitter I” she cried. “But I’ve got dignity enough to leave a place where I’m not wanted, even If that place happens to be the world. Go away!” she added fiercely. “Go away and leave me alone I” Besting one hand on the table be tween them, he held out the other. "Come1Iet me have that,” he suggest ed, Imperturbably. “Then we’ll talk things over. I’ll try to makeyou real ize what I was made to realize my self—that we were both on the wrong track. I’ll tell yon what others think who are wiser than we are.” As she did not move, he added, more lightly: “You see, what we were go ing to do isn't done much nowadays. It’s all out of date. Come,” be re peated, gently, “let me have It.” With a movement of Irritation the girl swept her hand forward and tossed on the table between them the small revolver she had been holding. “Take It," she said, almost Indiffer ently. And she added, “Another time will do as well.” He picked up the little weapon and put it Into his pocket. “There Isn’t going to be any other time,” he predicted buoyantly. “Now, slip Into a coat while I run across the street and get my hat and coat and order a taxicab. WeTe going out to luncheon, and to tell each other the stories of our lives, with all the grim and gory details.” “I don’t know you,” muttered the girl. She had dropped into a chair beside the table, and was sitting with “Come, Let Mo Have That," He Sug gested, Imperturbably. her chin In her hand, In what seemed a characteristic attitude, watching him with an expression he could not analyze. Laurie seemed surprised. “Why, so you don’t!” he agreed. “But you’re going to, now. We’re going to know each other awfully well before we get through. In the meantime, you can see by the merest glance at me how young and harmless I am. Where’s the coat?” He turned and began a vague, masculine search for It The girl wavered. His rising spirits were con tagious, and It was clear that she dreaded’ being left alone. 'T warn you,” she said at last, "that If you have anything to do with me you will be sorry for It” Laurie stopped his search, and, turning, gave her one of bis straight looks. “Why?” he demanded. “Because Fm In a n et” she said. "And every one who tries to help me gets caught In It, too. Oh, don't smile! You won’t smile afterward.” He picked up a coat he discovered In a corner, and held It for her to slip Into. “I like nets,” he remarked lightly, "especially if they’re bright-colored, large, roomy, comfortable nets. We'll have some great times In ours. Come along.” She shrugged her shoulders, and In the gesture slipped Into the garment - “Fll go,” she said, In a low voice. “But don’t forget that I warned you!” »X<»Z'»X»X»X'»X'»X»X'»X»X'»X»X'»X»X'»X»X»X»X»X<>X'»X'»X»X»X'»X»X» Return to Normalcy After the Big Fight little Elspeth and a friend were playing about the house and having seen the fire apparatus go down the street thought It would be a lot of fun to play fire. So they shouted '“Fire! Fire!” until Elspeth’s mother came rushing In from the back yard crying, "Where? Where?” Upon learning that It was all a Joke, she sent Elspeth to her room, with the admonition never, to play that game again, and went to her own room to take a nap. The quiet was soon broken by a mo notonous thump, thump,-thuinp on the stairs and there was Elspeth, attired In her best coat and gloves, dragging her doll’s trunk down to the front door. ’ “I Is going to find a lady that wants a little girl,” she said determinedly, but finally was persuaded that no one wants a little girl half as much as her own mother.Cuddled at last In her mother’s arms, Elspeth sighed contentedly and tb& said: “Now zat you are my own good m uwer an’ the big fight is over, s’pose we go an’ unpack.” No Innovations for Him The vicar of an English parish had decided to use the revised version of the Bible instead of the authorized version In reading the lessons. At the end of the evening service on the first Sunday he had made the innova tion, the vicar was waylaid by a mem ber of the congregation. “Didn’t care much for them there lessons you read tonight, sir,” he exclaimed. “Oh,” said the vicar, “I suppose you prefer the authorized version. ’Now, why do you?” “Well, sir,” was the reply. “It’s like this; the authorized version was good enough for S t Paul, so it ought to be good enough for us.” ■ That’s Enough ISn’t It? -VPhen a cheer leader breaks train ing, what can he do except shut up?— Baltimore Evening Sun. CHAPTER IV A Pair of Gray Eyes On their way to the restaurant Laurie had selected he chatted to his companion in his buoyant, Irresponsi ble fashion, but he bad put through the details of the episode with tact and delicacy. He knew that In front of a club two doors gway from the studio building a short line of taxi cabs wjis always waiting, with the vast patience of their kind. A ges ture brought one. of these to the door, and when It had squawked Its way around the comer, the girl remained In Its shelter until Laurie had briefly re-entered his own building and ,emerged-again, wearing his coat and h at They drove to a quiet place where the food and service were excellent, while the prices were an effective bar rier against a crowd. When he and his companion were seated on oppo site sides of a table In an Isolated comer, Laurie confided his order to the waiter, urged that willing indi vidual to special haste,, and smiled apologetically at the lady. ‘Tm hungry,” he said briskly. “I haven’t had any breakfast this morn ing. Don’t be surprised Tf I Seem to absorb most of the nourishment In the place.” He studied her as he spoke. It was easy to do so, for she seemed almost to have forgotten him and her sur roundings. She sat drooping forward a little In her pet attitude, with her elbows on the table, and her chin In her hand, staring through the window with the look he had seen In the mir ror. The lethargy he dreaded again enveloped her like a garment His heart sank. Here was some thing' more than the victim of a mad ’but temporary Impulse. Here was a victim of a sick soul, or of a burden greater than she could bear, or per haps of both. He decided that what ever her trouble might be, It was no new or passing thing. Every curve In her despondent figure, every line In her worn, lovely face, suggested a vast weariness of flesh and spirit. In this moment of realization he al most forgot the girl’s beauty, though, indeed, It was not easy to forget It seemed enhanced rather than dimmed by the haze of melancholy that hung over It, and certainly there was noth ing dim In the superb red-gold color ing of her hair. Her eyes seemed red- gold, too, for they were reddish-brown with flecks of yellow light In them, quite wonderful eyes. He told him self that he had never seen any Just like them. Certainly he had rarely seen anything to equal the somber misery of their expression. There was a remoteness. In them which repelled sympathy, and which was intensified by the haughty curve of the girl’s short upper lip. She was proud, proud as the devil, Laurie told himself. Again, and very humbly, he won dered how he was to handle a situa tion and a personality so outside his own experience. In truth, he was afraid. When the food came, her expression changed. She shot a quick look at him, a glance at once furtive and sus picious, which he saw but ignored. He had dismissed the waiter and was serving her himself. In the simple boyish friendliness of his manner she evidently found reassurance, for she suddenly sat up and began her break fast. Laurlw exhaled the breath he had been holding. Up till the last mo ment he had feared that she might see through his subterfuge In taking her there, and even now refuse the food he offered. But If In that fleet ing Instant she felt doubt, It had died as It was born. She drank her coffee slowly and ate her eggs and toast as deliberately, but her characteristic air of Intense preoccupation had depart ed. She looked at her companion as If she really saw him. Also, she ap parently felt the stirring of some sense of obligation and need of re sponse to this friendly stranger. She was answering him now, and once at least she almost smiled. Watching the little twitch of her proud and perfect upper Up, Laurie felt his heart-beats quicken. She was a wonder, this girl; and with his de light In her beauty and her pride came another feeling, almost as new as his humlUty—an overwhelming sympathy- for and a desire to Help another. These sentiments served as needed balance to his spirits, which, as al ways, mounted dangerously when he was Interested. He held himself down with difficulty. This was no time for the nonsense that he loved to talk. One doesn’t rescue a lady from suicide and then try to divert her mind with innocent prattle. One gives her a decent time to pull herself together, and then, with tact and sympathy, one gets to the roots of her trouble, if one can, and helps to destroy them. Despite his limited experience with drama off the stage, Laurie knew this. Because he was very young and very much In earnest and was talking to a young thing like himself, though In that hour she seemed so much older, he Instinc tively found the right way to approach the roots. They had finished breakfast, and he had asked and received permission to smoke..

AT THE AQE OF 3 3 a Mild Laxative -Not a “Physic” Most men and women past fifty must give to the bowels some occa sional help, else they suffer from con stipation, One might as well refuse to aid weak eyes with glasses as to neglect a gentle aid to weak bowels. Is your present laxative, In what ever form, promoting natural bowel “regularity”—or must you purge and “physic” every day or two to avoid sick headache, dizziness, biliousness, colds, or sour, gassy stomach? Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin helps to establish natural, regular bowel movement even for those chronically constipated. It never gripes, sickens or upsets the system.

Quart of Water Cleans Kidneys Take a Little Salts If Your Back Hurts, or Bladder Is Troubling You No man or woman can make a mis take by flushing the kidneys occasion ally, says a well-known authority. Eating too much rich food creates acids, which excite the kidneys. They become overworked from the strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood. Then we get sick. Rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders often come from sluggish, kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache In the kidneys, or yonr back hurts, or If the urine Is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular ot passage or at tended by a sensation of scalding, be gin drinking a quart of water each day, also get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful In a glass of water be fore breakfast and in a few days your kidneys may act fine. This famous salts is' made from the acid of graRes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia, and has been used for years to flush and stimulate the kidneys; also to help neutralize the acids in the system, so they no longer cause irritation, thus often relieving bladder weakness.

NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENT EVENTS Our Policy in Nicaragua Bitterly Attacked in Latin America. By EDWARD W. PICKARD IF ONE were to believe the press in some Latin-American republics and the alarmists at home, affairs In Nic aragua are approaching a crisis that will be very uncomfortable for the United States. But the administra tion pursues its course steadily and without the least appearance of being worried. Rear Admiral Julian B. Lati mer, commanding our naval forces down there, has established a neutral zone that embraces the entire east coast of Nicaragua and has notified both sides in the civil struggle that any troops of either faction that enter that zone will be disarmed. Though the zone includes Puerto Cabezas, vhere Doctor Sacasa set up his liberal government. Admiral Latimer’s action last week happened to strike hardest at the Diaz forces, for they suffered a severe defeat at Las Perlas and hundreds of them were forced to re tire to El Bluff, where they were dis armed by the Yankee gobs. The Con servatives fought desperately for three days but could not withstand the at tacks of the Liberals, who were said to have the help, of 300 Mexican sol diers and officers. Dr. T. S. Vaca, agent of the Liberal government In Washington, lodged with Secretary of State Kellogg an emphatic protest against the occupa tion of Puerto Cabezas by the Ameri cans, asserting that it was unwar ranted and that Doctor Sacasa was held in “practical imprisonment” At about the same time President Cooi- idge gave out a statement describing America’s intervention as non-partisan and declaring that the only purpose In landing the bluejackets In Puerto Cabezas was the protection of the lives and property of American citi zens. American marines, according to the President, have not molested Doc tor Sacasa or any member of his cab inet. The Liberal president, It was pointed out, is now residing in a house lent by Americans at Puerto Cabezas. Senator Borah, chairman of the sen ate foreign relations committee, after conferring with Secretary Kellogg and reading a cablegram from Admiral Latimer, issued a formal statement saying he did not believe it wt& the intention of the United States to in tervene In the affairs of Nicaragua, but warning that the government should be “vigilant. against being tricked into intervention.” “Naturally, we are interested In pro tecting our own people,” the Borah statement continued. “But we should also bear In mind that to do. anything more than is necessary to protect them Is wholly unjustifiable. Those people have their own way of doing things, and not only this government but American citizens who go into these countries will have to take that into consideration. I am in favor of with drawing our forces from Nicaragua Just as soon as it can be ascertained that Americans are reasonably safe.” Senator Moses, also a member of the committee,' is not so satisfied. He Introduced a resolution calling on the State department for the correspond ence leading up to the recognition of Diaz and relating to efforts to stabil ize bis government. It was presumed this would open the. way to a general discussion of American policies In Latln-America. Newspapers In Mexico, Brazil and Argentina are bitterly attacking the policy of the United States in Nicara gua. In Buenos Aires the press calls it part of the fixed program of the United States eventually to annex all of South America. But they are an gered by our refusal to admit their beef and alfalfa seed, and suggest a boycott on American coal In retalia tion. Unfortunately Ambassador Peter 'A. Jay, who could explain it ail to the Argentina government, has. resigned and is about to come home with the body of his daughter, who died there. Gr e a t B rita in , recognizing the changed conditions in China, has communicated to the powers its new policy In the Orient and asked them to take a corresponding stand. The pro gram calls for revision of the Wash ington treaty and all other outstand ing questions as soon as the Chinese themselves have constituted a govern ment with authority to negotiate, and proposes that the powers should abandon the idea that “economic and political development of China can only be secured under foreign tutelage and should declare their readiness to recognize her right to the enjoyment of a tariff autonomy as soon as she herself has settled and promulgated a new national tariff. They should ex pressly disclaim any Intention of forc ing foreign control upon an unwilling China.” The plan calls for the Immediate unconditional grants of surtaxes con templated by the Washington confer ence, and opposes any attempt by the powers to dictate the purposes to which the yield from the surtaxes should be devoted. In the State department at Wash ington the British plan was read sym pathetically and lD general witli favor. France doesn’t like it. The press In Japan was unanimously opposed to it, the objections .being probably prompt ed almost entirely by commercial con siderations. Large Japanese exporters to China foresee considerable losses in what has been a lucrative field for them, and they have great Influence with the government Marshal Chang Tso-Iin of Manchu ria has arrived In Peking, occupied the imperial palace and Is giving out or ders as a dictator. Meanwhile the northern leaders are Reported to be gathering huge armies about Shanghai to prevent the imminent capture of that city by the Cantonese armies. A ROUSED by information that $100,0001000 worth of liquor had crossed from Canada into the United States during the year, and in response to loud protests In the Dominion and the United States, the government at Ottawa announced that it was deter mined to stop the rum running and to put into full effect immediately the treaty concerning it between Canada and this country. Hereafter any ships clearing from Canada with cargoes of liquor must prove beyond doubt that their cargo has been landed at the point for which clearance was granted, or else their bond for double excise duty will be forfeited. Where evi dence Is available that clearance pa pers are made out for fictitious trips, liquor cargoes will be seized and de clared confiscated as contraband under the provisions of the Canadian cus toms act. Holiday drinking In the United States resulted in the deaths of many persons due to the poisonous nature of the liquors, and opponents of pro hibition cried loudly that the govern ment was murdering American citi zens. Treasury officials responded with the statement that the use of wood alcohol as a denaturant would not be discontinued, but that a new formula, containing an unusually ob noxious compound woulu be substi tuted for some of the formulas in use hitherto. In other words, the liquor will be no less poisonous but will be so distasteful that, it is hoped, people will not be willing to drink it. Rear Admiral Blllard announces that "Rum Row” off the Atlantic coast has been entirely put out of business by the efforts of the coast guard. THERE was widespread damage and great suffering, as well as sev eral deaths, In the lowlands of Ken tucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Missis sippi and Alabama, resulting from the overflowing of the rivers following tremendous rainfalis. Eastern- Ken tucky and Tennessee were the worst sufferers, but elsewhere also the crop losses were heavy. In other parts of the country, notably Ohio, there were extraordinarily heavy snowfalls that, brought traffic to a standstill. Two volcanoes on Kamchatka penin sula are In eruption, and though no loss of life-is reported the property damage Is severe. The,city of Petro- pavlovSk is nearly burled, under lava and ashes. Further west on the Rus sian coast several fishing villages were obliterated by great waves and masses of ice hurled on them during a storm. Heavy loss of life, was reported there. LITIGATION over the estate of Jay Gould that lasted ten years and enriched many lawyers was brought to an end by a compromise agreement making a series of lump sum settle ments and annual payments amount ing in all to about $20,000,000 to the many beneficiaries. The estate has shrunk from $SO,OOOt- 000 to about $50,000,000. Attorney Samuel Seabury of New York, acting as spokesman for the attorneys con cerned, said that Anna, duchesse de Tallyrand, had settled an $11,000,000 claim for less than $3,000,000. A de sire to mend family differences actu ated this settlement, Mr. Seabury said. He informed Referee O’Gorman that both Frank J. Gould and the duchess held the deepest affection for Helen Gould Shepard, one of the trustees, and felt that no matter how mistaken her course of conduct had been it had not been marked by any trace of dis honor. A WARD of the Woodrow Wilson Foundation peace prize for 1926. was made to Elihu Root, former secre tary of state, at a banquet In New York on the anniversary of Wilson’s birth. The presentation was made by Norman H. Davis, president of the foundation, who said it was in recog nition of Mr. Root’s work in 1920 in the creation of the permanent court of international justice. M AJOR D a rg u e and his comrade in the pan-American army air plane tour, went up to Mexico City and were received by President Calles. They presented to him a flowery letter from President Coolidge and received an equally flowery missive for Mr. Coolidge. Naturally, there was In the documents no slightest hint that re lations between the two governments were not entirely pleasant G REETED by a million people, the former Crown Prince Hirohito of Japan entered Tokyo and mounted the throne of his ancestors, succeeding to the imperial title on the death of his father, Yoshihito. At his first levee the new emperor read an outline of his policies, saying in part: “Conditions throughout the world have recently undergone signal changes. The thoughts of men are liable to follow contradictory chan nels. The economic life of the nation is occasionally marked with the con flict of varied interests. Accordingly it is important to fix one’s eyes at the general situation of the country and- unite the efforts of the whole em pire In promoting the solidarity of the nation, In strengthening still further the foundation of the national exist ence and securing forever the pros perity of our people. “Simplicity instead of vain display; originality Instead of blind imitation; progress in the view, of this period of evolution and improvement to keep up with advancing civilization; national harmony- id purpose and action; be neficence to all classes of people and friendship for all nations on earth. These are the cardinal aims of man whereto our profoundest abiding solici tudes are directed.” Go n s id e r a b le importance is at tached. to the signing on Wednes day of a treaty of friendsh’p and ar bitration between Germany and Italy. Though it is not an alliance, the pact is expected to bring the two countries again into amicable relations and to have a bearing on the shaping of the political alignment In Europe. It shows a spirit of co-operation and a- desire to clear up the misunderstand ings of the past year. T> USINESS men of America formed ■*-' a commission to investigate the agricultural problem and its relation to 'th e economic life of the nation. Charles Nagel of St. Louis is chairman of the commission, which was created Jointly by the national industrial con ference board and the Chamber of Commerce of the United States. Mr. Nagel said that while Information and suggestions would be sought from leaders In all fields of business and agricultural activity “the commission’s findings and recommendations must be entirely Its own, uninfluenced and free even from the policies and atti tudes of either of the two organiza tions that have co-operated in organ* lilng the commission,” L e s s o n (B t r.EV.

YOUNG PEO PLE AND ADULT TOP IC C hrist’s Life and Exam ple fo r U a The context (v. 26) clearly Implies what is elsewhere positively declared (John 15:18-21; Luke 21:17) that the followers of Christ will be hated and opposed. In this lesson Christ sets forth the principles governing the life of his followers. I. “Love Your Enemlesf (v. 27). Love here is not a natural affection. To love friends is easy, but to love enemies Is only possible to those who have been made partakers of the di vine nature—been born again. II. "Do Good to Them Which Hate You” (v. 27). Love is positive In its nature. The true Christian will not merely refrain from doing Injury to one who hates him, but will be concerned with and engaged in doing good to him. True love acts according to Its own essen tial nature. III. "Bless Them That Curse You” (v. 28). To bless means to speak well of—to Invoke a blessing upon. Injury by words Is hard to let go unchallenged. The one who is a child of God and al lows the Spirit of bis Maker and Re deemer to express Itself through him will return blessings for cursings. IV. "Pray for Them Which Despite fully Use You" (v. 28). We should pray for those who abuse us. The best commentary on this precept is Christ’s own example (Luke 23:34), “Father forgive them for they know not wbat they do." When Christ was reviled He reviled not again. When He suffered, He threatened not, but committed Him self to Him that Judgeth righteously. (I Pet. 2:23). V. Patiently Endure Wrong and In jury" (v. 29). . The Christian is not to bristle in defense of his rights but rather to suf fer insult, injury and even loss. This expresses the law which should gov ern the individual’s actions, but should not be pressed so far that evil doers can go unchecked. Rightly con stituted government has been ordained of God for the protection 1O f the inno cent and the punishment of evildoers (Rom. 13:1-8). VI. Give to Every One That Ask- eth of Thee (v. 80). God is the supreme example, He gives freely and generously but intel ligently. This text does not author ize indiscriminate giving. There is a giving which Injures the one to whom the gift is made. To give a man money' to buy whisky would be wrong. VII. Do as You Wish to Be Done By (v. 31). This is called the Golden Ruin, It is the sum total of Christian duty as it pertains to human interrelations. Hu man beings carry with them the con sciousness which is the touchstone which teaches them their duty to oth ers. If men were to live up to this rule the problem of capital and labor would be solved and end would be put to war. International relations would be peaceably -adjusted and all profi teering in business would end. Prac ticing this precept proves that we are children of God. Loving those who love us, doing good to those who do good to us, lending to those who lend to us, is the common practice even among sinners. No new birth, no Holy Spirit needed to live this kind of life. VIII. Be Merciful (v. 36). This means to be filled with pity and compassion. To enter into sym pathy with every need of others. The supreme example as to thla is the Heavenly Father. IX. Censorious Judgments Con demned (v. 27). This means that we should not seek out the evil or faults In others for our satisfaction. We should not sit In censorious judgment upon the ac tions of others. However, it does hot prohibit the just estimation of the character of others by their deeds. X. The Compensations of Right Liv ing (v, 38). The one who gives freely of money, loves sincerely, makes the Golden Rule the standard of his life, shows mercy and kindness to others, and refrains from impugning the motives of others will be fully rewarded In kind.' God will see to It that there be no loss.

But the announcement of the Most Beauti- ful Chevrolet has been the automotive sensation of all ti me! Here is a car which in beauty, luxury,-quality and modern design challenges the costliest creations of the day. Here, in a price class where-average standards have been the rule, is now ottered a car so far beyond all expectation that comparisons cease to exist. Seven superb models styled as low priced cars were never styled before and ottering such marks of fine car distinc tion as: full crown one-piece-fenders, bullet type lamps and “tish tail” rear deck modeling! Newl and supremely beautiful bodies by Fisher! And, above all, infinitely finer quality—the result of a host " of additional improvements such as AC oil filter, AC air cleaner, coincidental steering and ignition lock, larger J7” steering wheel, gasoline gauge and many, marty others! All this is combined to a-supreme-degree in the long fa mous leader of the Chevrolet line—the Coach. It would be a brilliant achievement for any manufacturer merely to design such a splendid car to sell at any reasonably low . , price: But to sell it at the amazing price of $595 is a feat of history making proportions. Thisonepricereduction alope would suffice to center worldwide attention on Chevrolet. / But due to economies of tremendous produc- ... tion plus the vast resources of General Motors, Chevrolet - ' also announces striking price'reductions on other models.For years Chevrolet has led the world in providing Quality at Low Cost.

Mr. Editor:—What of the future of the Republican party in North Carolina? From the results of the recent campaign and the returns of the Democratic election board, is it best to disband and abandon all efforts in the future and give the Demo crats time and opportunity to dis integrate, split and divide and fight among themselves or fight? These are questions that should be settled at an early date by our organization and party leaders in the State. This writer has been in the coun cil of the party and helping to fight its battles since the time of Eaves and Mottt, through the regime of Holton and Butler. Adams, Prit chard, Morehead, Bramham and Jackson, as party chairmen. As a delegate, attending every State con vention for 40 years, helped to no- miuate six Republican candidates for President, given his time and some money freely in the loyal sup port of every State and county or ganization and personally knows the leaders in every county east of Raleigh, and most of them through out the State, and to our mortifica tion and shame, the party in State has gradually deteriorated in every way from the time of the Holton Butler campaign, which was suc cessful in the year of 1894 and 1896 until this good hour Ou account of the indifference of the Demo crats, there neyei wag ,a. better. qp-: portuiiity tor success than the last election. There never was a finer or cieaner campaign conducted than the one just finished by Browalow Jackson and Johnson J. Hayes, but these men could not accomplish success alone against the hordes of crooked Democratic politicians in the fraudulent enforcement by un scrupulous henchmen under an un fair and infamous election law. But why should Jackson and Hayes have Deqn compelled to make that fight almost by their two selves? Where, Oh, where was Dave Blair with his $10,000 salary per year, 'given him for eight years through the Republicans of the State, with only $500 ' donation. And'J. J. Britt, another big salaried official with $8,000 to $10,000 per year. Frank Linney and his three or four assistants with large salaries and Irvin Tucker, U. S. District At torney and two assistants, and Gil liam Grisson with his almost num- berles officials and office force, U. S. Marshall Ward and his many deputies in the eastern district, and that sweet-scented, blockade catcher Ben Sharpe, and his minions and that high blood pres sure standing keynoter Gus Price, and the big salaried postmasters, at Asheville, Waynesville, Salis bury, Charlotte, Concord, Wil mington, Winston-Salem, Fayette ville, , Greensboro, Burlington, Durham, Rajeigh, Goldsboro, New Bern, Wilson, Laurinburg, Hen derson, Elizabeth City, and hun dreds of other Republican office holders in the State aggregating a- bout a million and a half dollars annually in official salaries in the State and less than $15,000 con tributed to the State Executive Committe. Not even a speech, or the influence of a personal presence of Dave Blair, Britt, Linney, Tuck; er, Price, Grissom or any of these fat-saiaried office holders, and some of them never even daikened the State- headquarters at Greenslioro with their fat, slick, well-dressed forms; and as for Mr. Blair, it is said he did not come to the State to vote- Guess he did not care to spare the time from the receptions, banquets, and balls at the Ward- man Park hotel, m Washington CityTuTgTve the interest of the Re- publican party of North" Carolina, which gave him his job. It is a political shame and scan dal that such men as these should be permitted to hold appointments, and suck the blood and salaries of the Republican party’s office. Not even a puny or worthy effort made for the part’s success in the State. That is not all. What a shame ful showing is brought to light, and recorded against the Republi cans and their county organization by the disgraceful election returns of the number of Republican voters in 40 counties in the State to:wit: Anson 64, Bertie 21; Beauford 197, Camden 14, Craven 81, Currituck 12, Edgecombe <6, Frankliu 138, Gates 175, Granville 109, Green 31, Halifax 109, Hertford 31, Hoke 35, Hyde 54, Jones 30, Lee 291, Lenoir 277, Martin 38, Nash 242, New Hanover 103, Northampton 118, Onslow 104, Pamlico 103, Pas quotank 84, Pender 98, Perquimans 72, Pitt T 27, Richmond 265, Roberu son 252, Scotland 61, Tyrrell 278, Union 248, Vance 165, Wake 433; Warren 20, Wilson 110, and Car teret, Cleveland, Durham, Forsythi Mecklenburg and others, polling less than one-third of their normal strength Why, in- many of the above named counties, tnere were less Republican votes; cast than Re publican federal office holders. Re publican brothers, are you not ashamed of such a record? Il was with deep humiliation, after Mr. Hayes had made such a magnifi cent campaign in these counties for; this writer to read the returns from these cdu'Hties,' every one" of which he is familiar with the personnel of the office holders; those claiming to be leaders of their counties, and many of them, especially the office holders will be at the next State and district conventions so thick that you cannot step without. al most stepping on one, hollowing the loudest, demanding recogniting keynoting chairmen of plantfom resolution commmittees with pom pous airs and with a "Look at Me,” I am here in all my official glory and want the same office again or something better If I was State chairman and na tional committeeman in North Caro lina, I would ask for a new deal. I would have a clean slate before two years roll ,around, regardless of how many endorsements! they had or how high up they thought themselves to be in party standing. I would refuse my endorsement and recommendation, and fight their reappointment and confirma tion of everyone who did not satis fy me of their loyalty and good work in their county for the party in the last campaign, and show that they were at the polls on elec tion day and voted a straight Re publican ticket. 1 Let it go out now that new and : worthy, capable young men will be recognized and recommanded for appointments who are willing and ready to re organize the Republicans in their county and in the State for the 1928 campaign and etelectisn, and relegate the old do-nothings, high- priced high society dudes high blood pressure keynoters, pompous big-headed platform committee per form committee performers in • the past to private life, such as only drew their breaths and salaries in the last campaigh, while others were pulling the patty plows, work ing the fields, spending their time and monev for the benefit and suc- success of the party in the State to keep such fellows in office. The Democratic party in the StfhteAast etectiSn'rWith all their big speakers in the campaign, the slush fund from over roo.ooo office hold ers in the State, all the election machinery, including the mongrel Australian ballot law, the ,fraudu lent use of the absentee ballot law, their sleight-of-hand tricks of re- cor^s of the voters and their frau dulent returns of elections boards, combined, were only able to poll 218.000 voles. If the Republicans in. the State bad voted as they did in 1924, ,and as they will do in 1927 when the federal officers are at State by 50, 000, electing Hayes, Senator; every judge, five congressmen, twelve solicitors, a majority of the legislature, and two thirds of the county officers.

What the public commonly calls “rotten” fea tures were attached to some of these failures, while the law has been slowly pulling one foot after other. Meantime, the “good” banks doing business under State charter are carry over $320,000,000 of the peo ple’s money.

The Pentecost Ammiversary Committee of Fifteen of the Dis ciples of Christ met in Chicago, this week, and laid plans for a world meeting to be held in 1930. It is to be held Washington and by that time the Disciplesliopetohave completed a church costing $1,000,- 000, a tenth, of this sum having been pledged by JR A. Long, a Kansas City Disciple; and along with construction of this church is a proposition to rustle up a large membership. The Disciples now number 1,500,000 and the aim is to increase this 2,000,000 by the com ing of the world meeting. A cam paign will be put under way to add 1,000 churches, 1,000 preachers and 1,000 lay preachers to the or ganization. ,The Disciples of Christ were known in the early days of the' or ganization as Campbellites. They were Baptists seceding from the Irish, Presbyterian Church and set tling in Pennsylvania. They re jected the authority of all creeds doctrinal standards of human origin and determined to adhere to the Scriptures as their only rtile. They assign no efficacy, or value to bap tism except as an appointed decla ration of faith in Christ, regarding it as the soldier’s allegince to Jesus as King and ‘is enrolled . into the army of the IvOrd.

BURROS AND LLAMAS REPLACED BY TRUCKS Popular Type offi Truck Loaded With Concrete BlockA Transportation of heavy supplies up steep mountain trails formerly trav ersed only by burros and llamas, to Bolivian mines located 12,000 to 16,000 feet above sea level In Andes range, has been solved by the use of light automobile trucks. Developed by lncas. Centuries ago the Incas first devel oped these mines located in the most Inaccessible inland ranges. The Span ish conquistadores, envious of the Indians’ wealth, made short work of reducing the native population to a condition of slavery and supervising the production of gold. In later years silver and tin have been the most profitable metals produced in Bolivia, with operations seriously handicapped by the inaccessibility of the mining sites. Until a year ago burros and llamas, carrying a maximum load of 100 pounds each and traveling only 20 miles daily were relied upon to trans port supplies to the sky-line operating centers and to carry. down to sea board and railroads the refined metals, enormously heavy even in small quan tities. Improvements in mining prac tice were impossible until better dis tributing methods were available. Charges Reduced. Notwithstanding roads which were only rough trails covered with rocks and the fact that an automobile motor ordinarily loses 30 to 35 per cent of Its power when operating in the rarefied atmosphere of high altitudes, trucks have practically superseded the pack animals. One light truck carrying 2,000 pounds and covering 120 miles daily, does the work of 120 burros or llamas and cuts transportation charges exactly in half. ALCOHOL IS BEST ANTI-FREEZE DOPE Great Drawback Is That It Readily Evaporates and Must Be Replaced. Letter circular No. 2» m revised form has just been issued by the United States bureau of standards. It embodies the tests made on a num ber of anti-freezing mixtures and gives a table showing the percentages of al cohol, of glycerin, and of combina tions of the two.- that-are necessary to' produce a .solution having a given freezing point. Alcohol is still regarded as the best material to keep automobile radiators from freezing. If wood alcohol is used care should be taken to see that it is free from acid, otherwise’ corrosion of the radiator and circulatory system may result. The great drawback to the use of alcohol is the fact that It readily evaporates and has to be re placed. Glycerin does not have this drawback, but it is more expensive. Anti-Freeze Solutions. Among other anti-freeze solutions discussed are calcium chloride, honey, glucose and kerosene. Calcium chloride is frequently used and found to be very effective, but It has a decided corrosive action, par ticularly on solder and aluminum. This Shlt forms the bams of many of the patent anti-freeze mixtures on the m arket To some of these a soluble chromate is added ,to prevent corro sion. The bureau finds that little cor rosion results when this is added ex cept to the aluminum parts. An other troublesome feature of calcium chloride is its tendency to cause short circuits when it gets on the spark plugs ,or ignition Wires. When cold It takes up moisture and forms a good conducting layer where such is not desired. It is hard to remove and the short circuits formed by it hard to find because they disappear when the engine gefs hot. Unsatisfactory Mixtures. Honey and glucose were found un satisfactory because a high concentra tion is necessary to prevent freezing, and this results in a thick solution Ujat does not flow freely. There is al so danger of depositing sugar in the circulatory system. Low percentage solutions do not lower the freezing point to any great extent, but they do prevent bursting the radiator. When such a solution does freeze it first turns to a slush which must first be cooled to a considerably greater ex tent before it turns solid. - « Carburetor Wisdom In making carburetor adjustments, hn operation Ihe owner usually per forms when-the'engine is cold, the new adjustment should be given a chance to prove itself before another change Is made. That is, after mak ing a change the engine should be run for a couple of miles, even if it mis fires at the beginning while It is still cold. It may be. that after it has warmed up to normal running tem perature, the new adjustment will prove satisfactory.- " ' \ -Arrest Noise Makers TJnder ari ordinance forbidding un necessary noises in SL Louis, Mo., drivers of trucks, taxis and automo biles who allow their vehicles to back fire and-who use sirens will; be ar rested. ' Signs Suggested for Railroad Crossings A Houston road sign painter suggests the following signs for railroad crossings: “Come ahead. You’re unim portant.” “Try our engines. They sat isfy.” “Don’t stop. Nobody will miss you.” ■ “Take a chance. You can get hit by a train only once.”— Houston Post. Washington Police Get “Safety First Pagodas’ Washington traffic police are to be provided with these little pagodas, the latest thing In safety, comfort and visibility. Traffic Officer K. M. Frye is shown overlooking the hurrying throng in front of the United States treasury. Deceleration Is Quite Important to Motorist “Accelerates from five to thirty miles an hour in ten seconds," reads an auto advertisement. Very good, 'but what about deceleration? How many seconds are required to bring the car from thirty miles an hour down to five? It is customary to think of stopping in terms of distances, whereas it may be more to the point to consider it in seconds. The time interval has much to do with the distance, for even if a car has poor brakes and does not stop efficiently, a second saved some where In the process is quite a bit of distance saved as well. By conserving even a fraction of a second, some drivers are able to get four-wheel-brake results with twee wheel brakes. Drivers who have used hand brakes In the past well remem ber the gain In deceleration distance when foot brakes speeded up the stopr ping process. Stopping is coming to be a matter of seconds more than of distance. Stop watches on the braking technique of many drums probably would show the need for such a change. Cause of Some Leaks Many cars have wires or rods lead ing from the front of the radiator to the priming device on the carburetor. These rods pass through one of the air passages of the radiator. The tubes of radiators are made of very thin material, and in the course of a season’s use the primer rod, in rat tling around, through vibration of the car, may cause a leak that will be troublesome. The remedy is to in sert a stiff piece of tubing In the air passage that bolds the rod. s 0 A Y E I* SAY 44‘BAYER ASPIRIN”- Unless you see the “Bayer Cross” on tablets, you are not getting the genuine.

Only two other persons In the world know that, but I’d like to tell you about It, if you don’t mind.” She looked at him. There were strange things In the look, things that thrilled him, and other things he sub consciously resented, without under standing why. When she spoke there was a more personal note In her voice than It had yet held. “You?” she asked; and she added almost lightly, “That seems absurd.” “I know.” Laurie spoke w ith, the new humil ity he had found only today. “You think that because Tm so young I couldn’t have been desperate enough , for that. But—you’re young, too.” He was looking straight at her as he spoke. Her eyes, a little hard and challenging, then dropped. “That’s different,” she muttered. He nodded. “I know the causes were different enough,” he agreed. “But the feeling back of them, that pushes one up against such a proposition, must be pretty much the same sort of thing. Anyway, it makes me understand; and I consider that it gives me a claim on you, and the privilege of try ing to help you.” Her eyes were still cast down, and suddenly she flushed, a strange, dark flush that looked out of place on the pure whiteness of hat skin. Bhe had the exaggerated blit wholesome pallor of skin that often goes with reddish hair and red-brown eyes. It does not lend Itself becomingly to flushes, and this deep flush lingered, an unwelcome visitor, throughout her muttered, al most ungracious words. “Oh, please don't talk about It,” she said, brusquely. “It’s no use. I know you mean to Be kind, but you can’t do anything.” “Oh, but that’s Just where you’re wrong.” Laurl& spoke with a cheer ful assurance he did not feel. “If I hadn’t been there myself, I’d talk all lorts of twaddle to you, and do more harm than good; and Fd probably let you go on thinking you were facing it trouble that no one could help. In stead of that, you and I are going to hold your bugaboo up to the light, and see just what it is and how small It is. And then—” he smiled at her— •we’re going to get rid of it to gether.” She echoed his words, vaguely, as tf not knowing quite what to say. "Get rid of it?” “Yes. Tell me what it is, and I’ll show you how it can be downed.” She pushed back her chair, as if anxious to put a greater distance be tween them. “No,” she exclaimed, nervously, •■It’s impossible; I. can’t talk about It.” Then, in an obvious effort to Side-track the issue, “You said you wanted to tell me about your—expe rience.” “I do, but It Isn't a nice story. For tunately, it won’t take long.” : He spoke reluctantly. It was not easy to hook two such memories out of the darkest pool of his life and hold them up to a stranger. “Oh, I was a young Idiot,” be rushed on, “and I suppose I hadn’t the proper start-off. At least I like to think there’s some excuse for me. My father and mother died when I was In knlekerbockers, and I grew up doing very much as I pleased. I—made a bad job of i t Before I was twenty- one I was expelled from college and I had worked up a pretty black repu tation.

I don't know anything about your friends, but I’ll wager you’ve got <• tot of tfcern.' By ELIZABETH JORDAN (© by The Century Company.) WNU Service She shook her head. “Not one,” she said, slowly. “I mean, not one I dare to call on, now.” “I like that! You’ve got me to call on, right here.” This time she really smiled at him. It was a pathetic little smile, but both lips and eyes' took part In It. He waited, but she said no more. He be gan to fear that his confidence had been given to no purpose. Evidently she had no Intention of malting a con fession in return. He resumed his at tack from a new angle. “You’ve been disappointed In some thing or some one,” he said. “Oh,” as she made a gesture, “don’t think Fm belittling Itl Iknow itw assom ethlng big. Bnt the finish you chose wasn't meant to be, or it would have come off. You see that don’t yon? The very sun In its course took pains to show you to me In time to stop It That means something, Mlss Mayo.” She seemed slightly startled. “It Is Mlss Mayo, isn’t It? That’s the name the elevator boy gave me, yesterday.’* “It will do.” She spoke absently, already on the trail of another thought. Suddenly she caught It “Then you brought the basket, or sent It?” she cried. “It was you! How dared you I” She had half risen from her chair. Bending across the table, he gently pushed her back into It “Sit down,” he said, imperturbably. She hesitated, and he repeated the command, this time almost curtly. Under the new tone she obeyed. ‘Tm going to tell you something,” he went on. “Fve exhausted my slen der resources of experience and tact I don’t know what anyone else would do in this situation; but I do know what Tm going to do myself. And, what is a lot more Important, I know what you’re going to do.” She laughed, and he winced at the sound. “That’s easy,” she said. “I'm going to finish the act you Interrupted." “Oh, no, you’re not I” Her lips set ' “Do you imagine you can prevent me?” “I know I can.” His quiet assurance impressed her. “How?” she asked, half mockingly. ‘‘Very easily. I can take yon from this restaurant to the nearest police station, and have you locked up for attempted suicide. You know, It’s a crime here.” The word they had both avoided was out at last Although he had spoken it very softly, its echoes seemed to flll the big room. She shrank back and stared at him, her liands clutching the sides of her chair, “You wouldn’t dare!” "Wouldn’t I? FIl do it.in exactly fifteen minutes, unless you give me your word that you tfill never make another attempt of the kind.” He took his watch out of his pocket and laid it on the table between them.. “It’s exactly quarter past twelve,” he said. “At half past—” “Oh !—and I thought you were kind!” There was horror in the brown eyes now and an antagonism that hurt him. “Would it be kinder to let yon go back to that studio and—” “How dare you interfere In my af fairs ! Who gave you the right?” “Fate gave me the right Fm its chosen specialist on the Job, and you may take my word for It, my dear girl, the job’s going to be done, and done up brown.” He lit a fresh cigarette. “It will be mighty unpleasant for you,” he went on, . thoughtfully. “There’s the publicity, you know. Of course, all the newspapers will have your pictures—” “Oh!” “And a lot of romantic stories—" “Oh—you—you—” “But of course you can avoid all that,” he reminded her, “by giving me your promise.” She choked back her rising fury, and made an obvious effort at self- control. “If I agree to these terms of yours,” she asked, between her teeth, “may I be sure that yo* will leave me In peace and that I shall not see you again?” • He looked at her reproachfully. “Dear me, no I Why, you’ll have to see me every Say. i’ve got to look after you for a while.” At her ex pression his tone changed. “You see,” he said, with smiling seriousness, “you have shown that just for the present you can’t be trusted to guide your own actions. So Tm going to ‘stick around,* and guide them for a few days, until I am sure you are your self again I” "Thia—” again she choked on the words—“this is intolerable!” “Oh, I don’t think so. You can see for yourself that I mean well, and that Tm going to be a harmless sort of watchdog. Also, you can depend on me to go off duty as soon as It's safe. Bnt for the present you’re go ing to have a guardian ; and it’s up to you to decide whether that guar dian &hall be Laurence Devon, very much at your service, or the police force of the city of'New York.” She had her chin in her hands how, In her characteristic pose, and was regarding hlni without resentment. When she* finally spoke, it was with out resentment, too, but coldly, as one states an unpalatable fact “You,” she said, "are a fool." Laurie flushed, then smiled. “That is not a new theory,” he ad mitted. “Two hours ago,” she said, “I warned you that it would be danger ous for you to interfere In my affairs. Did I not?” “You did.’* "I warn you again. R may be a matter of life or death. Put your watch in your pocket, pay your' bill, and take me home. Then go away and forget me.” Laurie glanced at the watch. “We have used up eight minutes since I gave yon your choice,” he re minded her. “Yon are like a child,” she mut tered, “spinning his top over a powder magazine." Laurie frowned a little. “Too melodramatic,” he murmured. “I tell you,” she said fiercely, “you are acting like a fool! If you Inter fere with me you will be drawn Into all sorts of trouble, perhaps Into tragedy, perhaps even into disgrace.” “You’re forgetting the net,” he re minded her, “the nice net you men tioned this morning, with room for two. Also—” again he looked at the watch—"you’re overlooking the value “I Warn You Again. It May Be a Mat ter of LiTe or Death.” of time. See how fast these little hap<3s are moving. The nearest police station is only two blocks away. Un less you give me that promise, you will be in It in—” he made a calcula tion—“In just about four minutes.” She seemed to come to a decision. “Listen to me,” she said, rapidly. “I cannot be frank with you—” “I’ve noticed that” Laurie interpo lated, “with regret” She ignored the interruption. “Bnt I can tell you this much. I am sot alone in my trouble. Others are involved. They are—desperate. It Is because of them that I—you under stand?” Laurie shook his head. He did not understand at all; but vague and un pleasant stories ^bout espionage and foreign spies suddenly filtered through his mind. “It sounds an awful mess,” he said frankly. “If it’s got anything to do with German propaganda—'* She interrupted with a gesture of impatience. “No, no!” she cried. "I am not a German or a propagandist, or a paci fist or a spy. That much, at least, I can tell you.” 1 “Then that’s all right!” LaurIe glanced at his watch again. “If you had been a German spy,” he added, “with a little round knob of hair on the back of your head and bombs In every pocket, I couldn’t have had much to do with you, I really couldn’t But as you and your companions are not involved In that kind of thing, I am forced to remind yon that you’ll be headed toward the station In just one minute.” “I hate you!” she said between her teeth. He shook his head at her. “Oh, no, you don’t!” he said kindly. “But I see plainly that you’re a self-willed young person. Association with me, and the study of my poise, will do a lot for you. By the way, you have only thirty seconds left” “Do you want to be killed?” . She hissed the words at him. “Good gracious, no!” Lanrle spoke absently, his eyes on the watch. “Twenty seconds,” he ended. “Do you want to be maimed or crip pled, or—or kidnaped?** He looked up In surprise. “I don't know why you imagine I have such lurid taste,” he said, dis contentedly. “Of course I don’t want any. of those things. My nature Is a quiet one, and already I'm dreading the excitement of taking you to th^ station. But now I must ask you to put on your gloves and button up your coat for our little Journey." “The Journey you take with me,* A e said, with deep meaning, “may b* a long and hard one." He stood up. “I wouldn’t miss It for the -world,” he told her. “But well have to post pone It Our Journey to the station comes first” She sat still, looking at him. “I know your type now,” she said suddenly. “Yon live In your little groove, and you think that nothing happens Ih the world except what you see under your nose.” “Something awfully unpleasant Is going to happen under my nose right now,” announced her companion, dis consolately. “Come along, please. It’s time to start” She stood up, faced him for a sec ond, and then dropped back into her chair with a gesture of finality. Her expression had changed back to the lethargy of her first moments In the restaurant. “Very well,” she said. “Have it your way.” She added significantly, "This may be the last time you have your way about anything!” “You have a depressing ontlcok,” grumbled Laurie, contentedly sitting down again. “It Isn’t playing thei game to spoil my triumph with such predictions as that, especially as Pm going to have my way about a lot of things right now. I have your word,” he added. “Yes.” “Good! Now 111 give you my pro gram. F irst of all, Tm going to be a brother to you; and I don’t think,** he ended thoughtfully, “that Fve ever offered to be a brother to any girl be fore.” ‘,•You’re a nice boy,” she said ab ruptly. He smiled at her. “A nice boy, though a fool. I hoped you would notice th at You‘11 be daz zled by my virtues before you’re through with me.” He went on con versationally: “The reason Fve never offered to be a brother to any girl be fore is that I’ve got a perfectly good sister of my own. Her one fault is that she’s always bossed me. I warn you from the start of our relations that Fm going to be the boss. It will be the first time I’ve ever bossed any one, and I’m looking forward to it a lot.” The faintest suggestion of a smile touched her short upper Up. Above It, her red-brown eyes had softened again. She drew a deep breath. “It’s strange,” she said. “You’ve let me In for all sorts of things you don’t realize. And yet somehow, I feel, for tha time at least, as if I had been ly ing under the weight of tbe world and some one had lifted tbe wretched thing oft me.” “Can’t you, by a supreme effort of the imagination, fancy that V lifted it off?” suggested Laurie, mildly. This time she really smiled. “I can,” she conceded. “And witk> out any effort at all,” sh^ added som berly, “I can fancy us both under It again.” He shook his head. A new character enters this mysterious drama. What does the girl fear? When will 'it strike?

Sherrod of Tahoka is one of the few men still living who hunted buffaloes for their meat In the 70’s. His first trip to the plains region of northwestern Texas on a buffalo hunting expedition was before the wholesale slaughter of the animals for their hides began. As a means of preserving Mr. Sherrod’s reminiscences of pioneer days, J. 13. Haleyj Beld representative of the Panhaiidle-Plains Historical society, visited Sherrod a few days ago and obtained from him an account of bis buffalo, hunting experiences. One of the interesting statements made by Mr. Sherrod was that In 1S75 buffaloes were killed In great numbers for their tongues, considered a great delicacy. His First Buffalo Hunt. *1 was just a boy and was out here on the buffalo range In 1874 and 1875,” he said. “I was seventeen years old when I came out the first time. We came out from Brown county, about 200 miles to the east, and there were only five .of us. Wfe‘ hunted for meat. That year you could, see 200 and 300 coyotes in a bunch, but the second year these animals were thinned out. There were_ many nu-n buffalo hunting, who killed the coyotes for their skin. “We really came a lot further out than necessary to kill the buffaloes but we had lots of fun.. There were tens of thousands of buffaloes every where. AVhen we got tired of one place we would move to another. We mad£ houses of poles, covered with buffalo hides, lined and floored with the same. The second winter we came out here there were thirty-two of us from Brown county, and I killed 80o buffalo that winter myself. I didn’t do anything but hunt. "The first winter we loaded our wagons with meat. We took year lings and two year olds and dried their hams whole. We brought a wash kettle along with us and rendered up thirty-two kettles of full marrow and tallow. This got so hard that you could throw it around like' a chunk of wood. We would take an ax, break the bones and then scrape the mar row out. The marrow and tallow were used for cooking, making soap and the like. “We killed enough buffaloes to fur nish the people4 of Brown county with meat all the next year. Twelvo months afterwards the meat would be as hard as a stove on the outside, but good and fresh when cut into. We didn’t salt our m eat The majority of thf mnat we cut in big chunks, as large as a ten pound bucket, and dried. Some of it we carried back in the wfcole hams. “In killing the buffaloes we used needle guns and it cost us five’ cents a shot We met two fellows up on the head of the Colorado river the second year who had been out two months and hadn’t killed a buffalo. They had these ‘citizens’ rifles and traded us some tobacco to kill some buffaloes for them. We went out and killed about fifteen for them. No Trouble With Indians. “There were lots of Indians the first year. We left our camp many times and would look back and see the Indians sitting on the tops of our wagons and moving around our camp. They never would bother anything ex cept something to eat or our mulc-s. We had to guard the mules every night Many a night we have gone off into a thicket without mules, and the Indians would come Into camp and pass all around us. There were more Indians over In -Grosby county than around Tahoka lake. We never did have a fight with them, as they never did bother us. Lots of times we would ride around a point and meet a bunch of Indians face to face. We would both stop, and in a minute the Indian behind would turn his horse and then all would turn and, ride back the way they had come. “We never bothered with the buf falo hides in 1874 except to throw a few on top of our meat when we started back. There was a spring at Tahoka lake, but no water In the plains lakes then. “The second winter there were hun dreds of men killing for hides. “We drove ox teams in 1875 and must have had about fifteen wagons that year. There was an outfit from Fort Worth on- the Colorado river which was killing just for the tongues. They said they were worth fifty cents in Fort Worth. They would kill the buffaloes, cut out IJie • tongues and leave the rest lying there. Wfc' were gone on the trip ab'out six months and a half.” WOMEN BARRED ON “PARADISE ISLAND!’ wNo Money, No Trouble" In Restful South Seas. London Irate; Research Bleuned for Lost Dogs London, England.—Unlucky dogs have been led astray In such numbers for medical and scientific research that thousands of London pet owners have appealed to the authorities for protection. The question of dog-stealing bas been brought up In the house of com mons before. The Research Defense society conteniis that research work ers, by paying from 6 to S shillings for any kind of dog, have given Im petus to dog stealing here and are re sponsible for the deaths of great num bers of these animals.: The research workers say that they tho.ught the dogs were homeless and not beloved pets which had been caught napping by the'dog catchers. San Francisco, Calif.—Nine willing Robinson Crusoes, who, though young, are weary of the turmoil of cities and the babble of women, are here prepar ing to colonize a new “Paradise Is land” In the South Seas. “No trouble and* no women; no money” and nobody to ask you for any,” is their motto. The Intended home of the self-ap pointed castaways is Santa Marla Is land, lovely bit of land exactly on the equator in the Galapagos group. The men are the crew of the Ecua dorian auxiliary schooner Floreana, at present docked here, who own their own ship, and, as members of “La Colonia de Floreana,” are owners of the modern prototype of Robinson Crusoe’s home-on Juan Fernandez is land. No ordinary sailors are they, but philosophers, every one. One is an accountant, another an. author. A for mer associate in the enterprise, who later deserted, was a scholar and uni versity graduate. AU are from Nor way. Each man has his particular reason for fleeing from the society of women. Three of the Floreana are divorced. Two are married and separated from ill-natured or unfaithful wives. The others of the company admit they are. “disappointed men.” Then there are 21 men, ranging In ages down to eighteen years. Thirteen of them were left on Santa Maria is land before the Floreana came to San Francisco a month ago. Capt. August Christensen, forty-five, and Capt. Anton Stub, fifty-one, mar iners, are the leaders and the eldest of the colony. They have, of course, the Intention of colonizing their island with addi tional people eventually and reaping fortunes in tilling its fertile soil. They also contemplate fishing and whaling enterprises in the populous tropical waters of the vicinity. The islet was selected by the adven turers first, because the Ecuadorian government, which owns the 41 islands of the Galapagos, granted them the land, and second, because of its ro mantic history and isolation. Centuries ago, Santa Maria was Charlie’s island, refuge of Pacific buc caneers. Only one island of the Gala pagos is now inhabited. It is HO miles from the Crusoes’ home. Find $2,000,000 “Rose” Diamond; Arrest Two Paris.—The famous rose diamond, known as the “Grand Conde,” stolen from the gem tower in the chateau of the Due d’AumaIe In Chantilly early in October, has been recovered. The famous gem was found in a valise, the stone wrapped carefully in cotton. Two of the alleged thieves, Leon Kaulfer and Emile Souter, who crossed a' flooded moat and climbed into the gem tower on a ladder, were arrested and are reported to have confessed. Two fences, who sold a fortune In smaller jewels which also were stolen, were arrested. Other accomplices are sought. The thieves got only 30,000 francs (about $1,200). They threw settings, some of which were of great value, into the Seine and sold the stones to unsuspecting reputable J e ^ elers. The mystery was cleared because Kaulfer talked too much. One of his lapses from caution was promptly re ported to the police. He was shad owed for several weeks, and finally connected with the robbery and ar rested. FindW aytoGrow Hair on Bald Mice Taunton1- England.—Bald mice have been made to grow hair in experi ments designed to discover a cure for baldness among humans. To grow hair on mice is easy, sci entists explain, but the trick was to make the mice bald. Dr. F. A. E. Crew, principal of the animal breeding Institute of the Edin burgh university, discovered that mice may be made to shed their coats by extracting certain gland substances. Doctor Crew also says that by ex tracting a substance from normal mice and grafting it on the bald ones, he has been able to promote the growth of the coat again completely or par tially, according to the amount ap plied. The experiments are being con tinued with a view of ascertaining If human baldness may,^not be due to the same glandular deficiency, and therefore curable in a similar way. Illiteracy Increasing; Paris Lays It to War Paris.—A littleknow nform of the war damage suffered by France is revealed In army fig ures which show an Increasing number of illiterates among re cruits. In 1921, of the men called to the Colors, 6,713 were unable to read or write, while 13,058 confessed themselves illiterate In 1024. . Figures for only a part of 1925 are available, but they show an augmentation In the cond'.tlon, which is ascribed to the disor ganization in schooling during the war. WILD WOMAN FOUND FROZEN TO DEATH Roamed Michigan Woods for Fifty Years. Calumet, MIch--Old Maggie Har rington, forest wanderer, was found frozen to death, eight miles from her dilapidated old cabin near the old Central mine In Copper country, northern Michigan, recently. She was seventy years old. For the last fifty years Maggie has roamed the forests* fearless of man or beast, at ail times of the'day or night, ass wild as the gray wolf and as harmless as the deer. Subsisting upon raw and uncooked foods, and wild berries, with clothing enough only to decently cover her— no stockings, mittens and no hat, she wandered many miies through the dense forests from one camp to the other and often crouched in the cor ner of a deserted cabin for the night, away from the howling wolves and sheltered from the’bitter north winds when the weathet was far below zero. At daybreak she would walk another ten or fifteen miles back to her own stoveless shack, or go on many miles in another direction to some miner’s cabin for a cupful of coffee. Wild Woman’s Home. ' Her old tumbled-down cabin at Cen tral mine, with windows stuffed with old papers or potato bags, its pile of ashes in the middle of the floor, where the old rusty stove had long since fallen apart, the chairs afid kitchen table decayed where- they stood, and in the corner of the bare room a pile of dirty rags which served her as sleeping quarters for these many years. She was often-seen by tourists as they drove along ihe northern high way, but she managed to get into the forest before they reached her. Maggie had one ride in an auto and that was four years ago when she had an infected foot. That ride took her twenty-five miles to Calumet for treatment. She was intelligent and had a com mon school education, and her mothar was noted among the old neighbors as a splendid housekeeper, clean and orderly. Retained Keen Mind. Maggie had degenerated in the mat ter of clothing and way of living only; her mind was keen, and what stories she could tell of the wild things she knew so well. Whatever transpired in the life of this strange woman to change her from a shy, sheltered, golden-haired, beautiful girl as she was fifty years ago at the time her mother died, into a silent hermit of the great forests, no one can say. She kept her own council—shared confidences with none and died with her secret on her frozen lips. Old Maggie was buried at Eagle Harbor near the spot where she stood over the little grave fifty years ago and cursed the fate that had robbed her of the mother she idolized, and changed her into a wild Woman of the great Michigan forests at one stroke. “Trench Mouth” Attacks . Thousands at Trenton Trenton, N. J.—An epidemic of French mouth,” a gum infection tech nically cailled Vincent’s disease, has spread through Trenton in the last few days. The malady, which is trace able to the World, war and transmit ted from person to person, has effect ed several thousands, Trenton'dentists declare. Nearby places also are troubled. At the SkIllman epileptic village, a state institution, the malady has been so general that physicians were called to launch a fight against it. “Stop kissing” is the word passed out by the health department In an effort to combat the malady. The, doctors declared the disease was rare In the United States befor* the war. They say It was brought back by the Ameri.can Expeditionary forces. Priest Plans to Restore California Mission San Juan Capistrano, Calif.—Sev enty-one years after. President Lin coln signed the land office patent, re storing the lands and building of Mis sion San Juan Capistrano to the Cath olic church for “religious and educa tional purposes,” the ruins of- the “jewel of the Franciscan chain” are to be made to conform to the pur poses for which the patent was signed. Rev. St. John O’SuHivan, the Ken tucky padre, who came to the mission to- die in 1911, but who became so im bued In the restoration of the ruins that he regained robust health, an nounced that work had started on a construction program which will con vert the tumbled adobe of the north wing into quarters for a convent and religious school.

PRIMARY TOPIC—T alking to God. JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus Teaches Us How to Pray.INTERM EDIATE AND SENIOR TOP IC Learning From Jesus How to P ray TOUNG PEO PLE AND. ADULT TOP IC—W hat Jesus T aught by Prayer. I. Jesus Praying In a Solitary Place (Mark 1:35). After a series of most strenuous ef forts Jesus retired to a lonely plaie to pray. He who'the day before had shown His mighty power in casting out devils and banishing disease,now needed to be alone with God. In or der to do this He arose,a long time before daylight. The very best time to pray is in the morning when oui physical powers have been renewed. If the Son of God needed this time for prayer, this renewal of spiritual strength in communion with the Heavenly Father, how much more should we seek help by retiring to the solitary place. II. Jesus Prcylng In Qethsemane (Mark 14:32-42) In this time of crisis He took with him Peter, James and John. 1. The first prayer (w . 35-38). (1) His posture (v. 35). He fell on his face prostrate on the ground. In the hour of great seed we naturally prostrate ourselves before God. (2) His petition (v. 36); “Take away this cup from me.” By the cup Is meant His death on the cross. No doubt it .was most grievous for Him to face this shame, but He pressed on, knowing that for this cause He had come Into the world (John 12:27. 28. Cf. Heb. 2:14). (3) His resignation .(v. 88). His will was in subjection to the Father. He knew that His deathvon the cross was the will of God, the Father, for He was the. Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. (4) The disciples rebuked (▼. 87). He singled out Peter since he had been the most conspicuous In pro claiming his loyalty (John 13:38). (5) Extortation to the disciples (v. 38). “Watch and pray lest ye enter into temptation.’* The only way to- be able to stand In the time of trial is to be watching and praying. 2. The second prayer (w . 39, 40). He withdrew the second time .from the disciples and uttered. the same words in prayer. This was not vain repetition. It is proper to repeat our requests. He found the disciples asleep again. Their shame and con fusion were more marked than at first ' S. The third prayer (w . 41, 42). He uttered the same words In the third prayer (M att 26:44). £fe tells the disciples to sleep on and take their rest as the hour had now .come for His betrayal. There Is such a thing as being asleep when wanted and awakening when it Is too late. If the disciples had been pray ing they would not have fallen asleep. III. Jesus Giving a Model Prayer (Matt. 6:9-13). This model was given In response to the disciples’ request that the Lord would teach them how to pray (Luke 11:10). It is not therefore the Lord’s prayer, but the model prayer for the disciples. It Involves: 1. A right relationship (v. 9). “Our Father.” Only those who be-. come-children of God by faith In Jesus Christ (Gal. 3:26) 'can pray aright One must be a child of God before he can be In communion with God. 2. A right attitude (vr. 9, 10).” “Hallowed b.e Thy ’ name.” When one realizes that -be has been deliv ered from the power of darkness and translated into the kingdom of His Son (Col. 1:13) by being made a child of God, he cannot help pouring out his soul In gratitude and praise, in tensely longing for the kingdom, the righteous rule of Christ to come oil the earth. 3. A right.spirit (w . 11-13). (1) That of trust which looks to God for the supply of daily bread. W« are dependent upon Him for our daily -food. With all man’s boasted progress he cannot make a harvest THSb mar vels of modern chemistry are insuffi cient for this. (2) That of • love which results In forgiveness of others. God will not listen to the prayer of one who has an unforgiving spirit / \ (8) That of holiness which moves one to pray, not to be led Into tempta tion and longs to be delivered from the evil one.; . “Soiled"L a n g u a g e The. language of some men Is Sb "soiled” that it seems a proof that they were formed of the solt—King’s Business. • Things to Give Away The Lord has a few LfiIiigs t-5 give away If you can-get where yon can take them.—Echoes.. • .

U- COMMISSIONER By E H. MORRIS. Atty. Light In Darkness. The demand is voiced some j more that the legislature compel horse- drawn vehicles operating on the highways at night to exhibit a signal light, same as the horseless vehicle^ There is no place for; argument about that. It remains to te seen wbsther. the legislators will permit the few horse-drawn behicles that now appear on the highways to r ftain a special privilege that invites serious disaster. The idea that the small minority are entitled to a con- nrswion that taks‘3 them In the shadow of death is too foolish to talk about. That only excuse that can be offered, which isn’t an ex cuse, is that not a few motor cars run without lights, probably prefer ring t.he darkness because their deeds are evil; or maybe they go Iightless on the theory that they have the same right as the horse-drawn out- flts. which they, haye But in all so absurd when yon consider it the wonder is that it was ever permitted to exist; that anybody, especially anybody capable of finding his wav into a legislative body without a guide would have the face to object to the requirement that is so ob- viouslr in the interest of safety.— Greensboro News.

Agriculture needs something in ■he way of help from the govern ment; the railroads the debtor count r|es, and big business get their share. Back From Oklahoma. My Dear Davie Record.—The Tar Heels are back from Oklahoma and will write my second and last enstallment to my story. First thought if the work is as big the other way it is some size. Ok lahoma is wonderful in many ways. Oil is the foundation for every thing around Tulsa and to the North. Hundreds of wells in some fields and wildcats (they call them) scattered about these are experi ments., Fornewfieldsit costs as well as pays and a poor man can’t go into the oil business. It is a- musing to see one engine running several pumps, 10 or 12 and nojone to tend them but the engineer. The oil is taken care of by pipe lines. I was told that each stroke of a pump brought up a barrel of oil. One patch of pumps was out in a lake where the wells are thick There is oil all about in the road and in the streams, so stock have to be provided for warmer. Some little streams and springs out in the Oroe Nation. I saw the most. The country is broken-queeu rocks and hills; the rock look like' big chim neys.

HASTINGS CO., SEEDSMEN, ATLANTA, GA. Talks About His Own. Talking to the grand jury in his home county of Cabarrus, Judge John M. Oglesby remarked that our system of jurisprudence, which he holds is the simplest and one of the best in the world, is “founded on the basis that the average man is interested enough in his commu nity to help in the enforcement. of the law.” ButtneConcord jurist doesn’t lay the burden on the “a- verage man.” Hisconclusion was that “when the jury, the bar and the COiirt do their duty, we shall have less crime. ’ ’ Idea seems to be that ,when the courts and the ap purtenances thereunto belonging function 100 per cent, the average inan will be heartened to lend a hand. There is turther evidence that Judge Oglesby does not spare h'is own. Talking about the prohibi-' tion law he confessed that he is “ tired of seeing the one-pint mab brought into court” while the high- ups who make-the bootlegger busi ness possible escape through wealth and prestige.” And then: I am proud of my profession, but it is a fact that liquor is consumed at the meetings of the state bar as sociation. The same is true of con ventions of many other groups in the state. At these conventions drinking is not recognized 1 as a breach of the law, yet if negroes get in a crap game ,they are likely to be haled into court in 20 minutes. JudgeOglesby says that 'drink ing at these conventions in ,the higher reaches “is not recognized as a breach: of thelaw .” What be; means-is thatrthose who take 'that' privilege to themselves refuse to re cognize it as a breach of the law, although Judge Oglesby will of course hold that the law breached in procuring the drinks if not in drinking That being so, are the judges and. solicitors who attend the bar meets excepted to look the other way while the breach is made in the statute? True they are not on official duty, but they are none the less citizens, supposed to be sufficiently interested in the pub lic welfare to “help in the enforce ment of the law.” They would probably be changed with a breach of hospitality if they were to report and witness against those who frac ture the stature on ihese festal oc casions. But if the ayerage citizen is supposed to have sufficient inter est in the public well-being to aid in law enforcement, it must follow that those set , aside for' the special duty of'law entorcnment have a larger interest; and that they could only be excused on the ground that one isn’t required to testify against h’mself. What Judge Oglesby could have said is that drinking anywhere isn’t considered a breach of the law by those who want to drink.—Greens boro News. Davidson’s Champion Corn Raiser. Henry G. Regan, of Silver Hill township, .Davidson county is the champion corn raiser of his county, if not of- the state. The past year Regan produced 815 bushels of corn pji nine- and seven-eights acres of upland on his farm six miles from Lexington. . Six years ago Regan purchased a farm, and the first year this field produced an averaged of eight bushels of wheat ..per acre. He started growing legumes and on the next sowing the same field averaged it bushels of wheat per acre^ Two years later, after a crop 'of cldver had been turned under, the field averaged 34 bushels of wheat This year was the first time he put it in corn, this follow ing year in which a crop of clover was turned under.

Charitv and Children states that the Baptist orghanage, at Tbom- asville, is in need of funds and calls on the friends of the institution to rally to its support. > At the beginning of December there was a debt of $60,000 hang ing over the institution. The Thanksgiving collections amounted to $71,000 but the December ex penses, always larger than any other month in the year had to be met and as a result the New Yeat started off with a $5,000 deficit. .

Run on New York Bank Three employes of the Broad way Central - bank, of New York are alleged to have lost $100,000 in in stock speculation and when this became known 2,000 depositors im mediately swooped down on the bank and began clamoring for their money. To meet' the emergency the bank imported $1000,000 from other banks and paid every man his money that ask for it but when the doors closed in the afternoon there were still 250 people in line waiting for their cash.

Suggestions of-ministerial associa tions and other good people thdt the law-makers soon to assemble be ur ged to abolish allcauses for divorce except “unfaithfulness,” commonly called scriptural grounds. Time wasted, if one. may judge the future by the past. First off, there is a greater demand than ever|befare in this part of the country for. an easy way out of the bonds of wedlock if a id when the bonds bind until they oecome burdensome. And the de mand, is being met-because 'legalized separation is becoming more of -a habit. It being accepted; even when not entirely approved; it is no longer the unusual, - is m< re a matter of course. That isin part, a reaction from the idea that people should be compelled to live together,, or re main legally bound, notwithstand ing existence may be intolerable, simply because they made the mis take of entering into a matrimonial alliance; that no matter how serious the default of one or the other, or both, the partnership remains bind ing. As is nearly always the case, the reaction carries to the other ex treme. resulting in trial marriages in effect, in more or less legalized a- d'ultry.. The: protest is natural. Breaking up homes is a serious mat ter. 'But if it were possible to pass the law mentioned, as it is not, that would not prevent separation and desertion. Divorce laws are rather loose with us. j But they will not be tightened, or.’ if tightened will be evaded, unless1 there is a sentiment that will sustain them—a sentiment stronger than law, that decrees that divorce, axcept for infidelity, is not to be countenanced. Nobody sees that in sight.. Tlm la ^ e r jegialator ismorejthap apt to view -law changes'as they will effect his. personal business rather than in the large; and-there are al ways lawyer-legislators who have clients who- want a divorce for causes the law doesn’t recognize.

Tell Them About It. The old-fashioned poem that the- school girl used to recite at the school breakings, “Curfew Sball Not Ring Tonight” ought to be amended, for the benefit of the shieks and Sappers who. wake peo ple up in the early morning return- . ing from the all-night dances- to read “The Curfew Shall Not Ring ‘Till Morn.” It is hard to undrstand where the parents' are and what they mean by allowing ’ their children, young girls in their teens and boys of the same age, - to stay out at these public dances un til three and four o’clock in th e' morning and then come home and sit out in a car before the house en gaged in a “petting and necking” party for from a half hour to .an t hour before turning in.

No one will ever know how I suffered from nervousness, how one of the worst cases of stomach trouble you could imagine caused me hours of pain. “I sought relief for 15 years. Iwas sotting worse all of the time and I reached the point where I could not eat anything without it making me deathly ill. Hundreds of times I faded into the realm of unconscious ness because of the pressure on my heart caused by gas forming in my stomach and bloating me. Due to stomach trouble and anemia I lost six babies, in infancy. “Where everything else had failed this marvelous Tanlac succeeded. It relieved my stomach trouble, soothed my nerves and for the first time in many years I was able to sleep soundly, get up refreshed and enjoy my food.

Caldwell, of Monti- pilo, III., a practicing physician for 47 years, It seemed cruel that so many pnstlpated men, women, children, and Particularly old folks, had to be kept •onstantly “stirred up” and half sick t'r taking cathartic pills, tablets, salts, ulomel and nasty oils. While he knew that constipation ras the cause of nearly all headaches, biliousness, indigestion and stomach wlsery, he did not believe that a sickening “purge” or “physic” was necessary. In Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin he discovered a laxative which helps to Establish natural bowel “regularity” JWcn for those chronically constipated, lor. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin not only causes a gentle, easy bowel movement but, best of all, it never gripes, sick ens, or upsets the system. Besides, it is absolutely harmless, and so pleasant that even a cross, feverish, bilious, sick child gladly takes it Buy a large 60-cent bottle at any store that sells medicine or write “Syrup Pepsin,” Monticello, Illinois, for a FREE SAMPLE BOTTLE and Just see for yourself. Dr. Caldwell's SYRUP PEPSIN STORY FROM THE START Laurie Devon, a gay young ebap somewhat Inclined to w ild ness, has recently succeeded aa a playwright. Ria w ealthy aSa- ter Barbara, who has helped him to aucceed, haa just been mar ried and Ia going to Japan, leav ing Lanrle on hla own. Spateln and Banga, hla theatrical part ners, have promised Barbara to keep an eye on Laurie. They ■oold him for hla Iaslneaa of late, and he retorts that he seeks ad venture. From his window In New Tork he sees the reflection of a beautiful girl In a mirror In the house opposite. From the elevator boy In the girl's house Laurie learns the girl’s name Is Mayo. Again In the mirror's re flection he sees her with a re volver and fears she means to commit suicide. He rushes into her apartment, and, winning her confidence, lnduess her to lunch w ith him, though she warns him of danger. A t lunch she admits there Is a m ystery In her life. ^ CHAPTER IV—Continued “That won’t do I”, he declared. “The ))d is off. You've Just admitted it. You feel better for having it off. So do I. As your big brother, and self- appointed counselor, I choose this op portunity to tell you what you’re go ing to do.” She pursed her Ups at him. It was the gesture of a rebellious child. Her entire manner had changed so sud denly that Laurie felt a bewilderment almost equal to his satisfaction in it. For the first time throughout the in terview he experienced the thrill she had given him In the mirror. . “Yes?" she prompted. “In the fisrt place—” He hesitated. The ground that stretched between them now was firmer, but still uncer tain. One false step might lose him much of what he had gained. “There’s the question of your future,” he went' on, In a brisk, matter-of-fact tone. "I spent two months last year looking for a Job In New York. I was about down to my last cent before I found it It occurred to me that perhaps, you—” He was beginning to flounder. “That I am out of work?" she fin ished, calmly. "You are right” Laurie-beamed at her. Surely his way was clear now I “I had a streak of luck last year,” he resumed. “I collaborated on a play that people were foolish enough to like. Ever since that,' money has poured In on me In the most vulgar Way. I dink when I walk. Dollars ooze from my pockets when I make a gesture. Last week,- at the bank, the cashier begged me to take some of my money away and do something with it. He said it was burdening the Institution. So, as your adopted broth er, Tm going to start a bank account for you,” he ended, simply. "Indeed you are not I” "Indeed I an!” i “I agreed to live. I did not agree to—what Is It you' Americans say?— to sponge!” He ignored all but the phrase of the reply. "What do you mean by that?” he demanded with quickened interest “Aren’t you an American?” She bit her Up. “N-o—not wholly." “What, then?” She hesitated. ‘T can’t tell you that Just yet,” she said at last. “Oh-h!” Laurie pursed his lips In a noiseless whistle. The girl’s voice Wan musically English, and though her accent was that of London, up tUl now she had spoken as colloquially as any American. Indeed, her speech was much Uke his sister's. He was puz zled. “Why didn’t you tell me this be fore?” “That I am not wholly American?” She was smiling at him ironically, but he remained serious. . , “Yes. And—oh, a lot of things! Gf course you know I am all at sea about you." The famUlar shadow fell over her face. “When one is within an hour or two of the next world,” she asked indiffer ently, “why should one ten anybody anything?,” “How long have you been In Amer- Icar “AU my lift, off and on,” This as least was reassuring. He Imagined he saw a gleam of light. The girl had declared that she was not a spy, nor involved in war propa ganda; but It was quite possible, he reasoned, that she was enmeshed1 In some Uttie web of politics, of vast im portance to her and her group, of very Uttle importance to any one else. suppose,” he suggested cheerful ly, ‘That net you’ve said so: much about is a political net?” They bad been Speaking throughout In low tones, inaudible at any other table. Their nearest fellow diners were two middle-aged women at least thirty feet away. But she started vio lently under his words. She made a quick gesture of caution, and, turning ‘half-around, swept the room with a frightened glance.' Laurie, his ciga rette forgotten In his, fingers, watched ByEUZAmTH JORDAN her curiously, taking In her evident tension, her slowly returning poise, and at last the Uttle breath of relief with which she turned back to him. “I wish I could tell you'all you want to know,” she ■ said, “but—I can’t. That’s aU there is to it. So please let us change the subject” His assurance returned. “You’re not a crown head or an es caped princess or anything of that kind, are you?” he asked politely. This time she really laughed, a soft, low gurgle of laughter. Joyous and Contagious. “No.” “Then let’s get back to our bank account. We have plenty of time to run over to the Fifth avenue branch of the Corn Exchange bank before the closing hour. What color of check book do you prefer?" “I told you,” she declared With sud den seriousness, "that my bargain did not linciude sponging." . For .the first time In the somewhat taxing Interview her companion’s good humor deserted him. “My dear girl,” he said, almost im patiently, “don’t beat the devil around the bush! You’ve got to live till we can find the right work for you, and that may take some time. You have intelligence enough to see that I’m neither a gay Lothario nor a Don Juan. In your present state of mind you’re not fit to decide anything. Make up your mind, once for all, that I’m going to decide for you. It will save us both some trouble.” He stopped. He I^ad discovered that she was not listening to him. She was sitting absolutely still, her head a little turned. Her lips were slightly parted, and her eyes, wide and star ing, were fixed on some one across the room. Laurie’s eyeB followed hers. They focused on a man sitting alone at n little table. It was clear that he had Just entered, for a waiter stood by his side, and the newcomer was giving Judicious attention to the bill of fare. He was a harmless-looking person, of medium height and rather more than medium stoutness, carelessly dressed In a blue-serge suit. His In difference to dress was further be trayed by the fact that his ready-made four-in-hand tie had slipped the moor ing of a white-bone stud, leaving that useful adjunct of the toilet open to the eyes of the world. HIs face was round, smooth-shaven, 'and rather pale. He had dark, slightly veiled gray eyes, which blinked near-sight edly at the menu. Altogether be was a seemingly worthy person, to whom the casual observer would hardly have given a second glance. While the two pairs of eyes across the room, stared at him, he confided his order to the waiter. It seemed a brief order, for the brow of the latter clouded as he wrote it-down and de- tachedly strolled off: The newcomer leaned back In his chair, and, as he did, so glanced around the room. His projecting eyes, moving indifferently from table to table, suddenly rested, fixed, on the girl. They showed in terest but no surprise. He bowed wltii a half-smile—an odd smile, bland, tolerant, and understanding. Then, disregarding her lack of response, he fixed his eyes on the wall facing him and waited patiently for his luncheon to be served. Laurie’s attention returned to the girl. She was facing him again, but her eyes looked past him as if he were not there. - “He has found me, even here,” she muttered. “Of course he would. He always does.” Laurie looked at her. “Do. you mean,” he asked crisply, “that€hat chap across thd room is fol lowing you around?" She looked-at him, as If abruptly recalled to the fact of his presence. Her eyes dropped. “Yes,” she muttered, duyy. "I may escape him for a time, but he always learns where I am. He will catch me when he chooses, and roll me about under his paws for a while, and then—perhaps—let me go again.” "That sounds like a certain phase of domestic lift,” commented Laurie. “Is he by any chance your husband?” Her eyes held a rising anger. “He is not,” she said. “I am not married.” Laurie dropped his dead cigarette Into the ash tray, and rose with a sigh. "It’s all very confusing," he admit ted, “aBd a digression from the main Issue. But Tm afraid I shall have to go to the exertion of reasoning with him.’* She started up, but before she could protest or restrain him, he had .left her and crossed the room to the stran ger’s table. CHAPTER V Mr. Herbert Ranaome Shaw The man In the shabby blue-serge suit detached his absent gaze from the opposite wall, and looked up quickly when Laurie stopped at his side. He was clearly surprised,' but courteous. He half rose from his chair, but the “I Came Over Here," He Said Casu ally, “to Mention to You That You Are Annoying the Lady I Am With.” newcomer "waved him back and dropped easily into the vacant seat opposite him. He was smiling. The man In blue serge was not. He looked puzzled, though vaguely responsive. A third person, watching the two, might almost have thought.the episode the casual reunion of men who frequently lunched together. Laurie leaned forward in his chair, rested one elbow on the table,'and, opening bis cigarette case, extended It to the stranger. The latter rejected It with a slight bow. “Thank you, but not before lunch,” he said, quietly. His voice and man ner were those of an educated man. The quality of his tone was slightly harsh. Laurie lit- a cigarette, blew out the match and looked straight into the stranger’s projecting gray eyes. He had acted Impulsively. Now that he was here, he was anxious to put the job over concisely, firmly, but, above all, neatly. There must be nothing done that would attract the.attention of the few persons In the big room. And Now the Cowgirl Is Declared a Myth A former state official of Kansas has declared that the cowgirl of fic tion and tradition is-a “mythical crea ture.” If he had merely talked IL perhaps no one would have paid much attention, but he has written it In reminiscences filed In the archives of the Kansas Historical society at To peka.

I want to mention also that the annoyance must stop.” The glance of the stranger held. Laurie observed with Interest that the veiled look of the projecting eyes had changed a little. The change did not add to the stranger’s charm. "Before I answer you, tell me ono thing,” he said, formally. “By what right do yon act as the lady’s protec tor?” LauriehesItatedanlnstanL The question was embarrassing. ' “Has she authorized you to act?” “In a way, but—” "How long have you- known her? How well do you know her?” Command of the interview was slipping from the younger man. He resolutely resumed IL "Look here,” he said, firmly, “I came to this table to tell you something, but I will decide what that is to be. I am not here to. answer {questions. It is enough for you to know that cir cumstances have given me the right to protect the lady from annoyance. I want to make it clear to youWbat I shall exercise that right Hereafter you are to let her alone. Do yon un derstand? Absolutely alone. You are not to follow her, not to enter places where she can see you,” he recklessly ended. ' The stranger looked at him through the light veil which seemed again to have fallen over the projecting eyes. “I should really like to know," he said, “when and where you met her. I saw you starting off together In the taxicab, but I am not quite sura whether your first encounter occurred this morning.” “And you won’t be.” Laurie stood up. ‘Tve warned you,” he said curt ly. “I don’t know bow well you un derstand our laws In this country, but. I fancy you know enough of them to realize that you eannot shadow n lady without getting into trouble." “She admitted that?” The stranger - appeared to experience a tepid glow of emotion. "She must know you better than I thoughL” he added re flectively. ’Doris Is not the type to pour her confidence into every new ear,” he mused, seeming to forget the other’s presence In tils Interest In this revelation. “Have I made myself quite clear?” Laurie was staring at him with a mingling of resentment and interesL The other noddeik "You have, ntf young friend,” he said, with sudden seriousness, "and now I, too, will be clear.

His manner had changed to a sort of Impatimit weariness! "Get .Jier out of here,” he said abruptly. “You are beginning to ir ritate me, you two. Take her home, and then keep away from her, unless you are looking fer trouble.” He delivered the last words so - clearly and menacingly that the waiter who had appeared with his luncheon heard them and fell back a step. Looking into the veiled eyes, Laurin also felt a sense of recoil. The fel low was positively venomous. Then was something serpentlike In the dull but fixed look of those goggling eyes, ' In the forward .thrust of the smooth brown head. "I’ve said my say,” he retorted, “If I ever catch you around that studio, or In any way annoying the lady, Fll thrash you within an inch of your, life; and then FU turn what’s left of you over to the authorities. Under stand?” He nodded and strolled back to Miss Mayo’s table. For an Instant the other man stood looking after him, as if tempted to follow.

Laurie found the girl standing by the table, ready for the streeL her coat fastened, her gloves buttoned. “Oh, how could you I” she gasped, “What did he say?” Laurie summoned the waiter with a gesture ancC asked for hla account.

In No vember 16, 1920, he photographed a strange celestial object, which is be lieved to hnve been his comet, but as sufficient observations to accurately determine its orbit were not obtained, this is not certain. When rediscovered on this trip, Neujmin’s comet was in the constella tion of Leo the Lion, near the handle of the familiar “Sickle,” which can be seen in the eastern sky for a few hours before sunrise. It is even fainter than Comas-Sola’s comet, as it was of the fourteenth magnitude. France May Sell Prison of “Man in Iron Mask” Paris.—Plans of the French govern ment to sell the island of Ste. Margue rite, where the “Man in the Iron Mask” was imprisoned for ten years, have met with much antagonism. The report that British capital was plan ning to turn the island into a model winter resort has brought protesta tions from every part of the Riviera. The district is already objecting to the numerous subdivisions financed by foreign capital. The island of Ste. Marguerite, which is about four miles In circumference, Is situated at the mouth of the Can nes bay. The “Man in the Iron Mask,” made famous by Dumas, was incar cerated in the Ste. Marguerite fortress In 1687. History still disputes -his identity. It is reported that the French government has been offered a large sum for the island, but newspapers and societies are fighting the pro posed sale. Rain-Making Machinery Constructed in Russia Leningrad.—A factory tor building rain-making machinery is under con struction here. The Leningrad Melio rative institute recently sent a rain- making expedition to the remote trans- Caucasian farming station of Ganji, to make careful experiments In rain production. On the basis , of this ex pedition's report of brilliant success, construction of the factory was begun. Further tests in the Mugan steppe and In ,central Asia are being made. The nature of the rain-making method and the character of machinery necessary to produce rain on demand have not yet been explained. 360-Pound Snake Caught After More Than a Year Rio de Janeiro.—A giant “Succri” snake, member of the boa family, more than 30 feet in length and weigh ing 360 pounds, was recently captured In the state of Matto Grosso and brought to the Rio de Janeiro zoologi cal garden by Ignacio Augusto Nasd- mento, who led a party that pursued the snake for more than, a year.

New York.—A - criminal. of many aliases was being interrogated by de tectives. Most crooks are satisfied with one or two, but this particular crook found it convenient to have six or seven fictitious names ready to use. And on different occasions he “had traveled,” as the police say, under each of his names. In one city he as sumed the name of Jlm Jones and in another the name of, Tom Smith. His captors were fairly familiar with his numerous aliases, and the mention of any one of them recalled the picture of 'a short, thick fellow with a long nose and a pair of small, fishy eyes. A detective had written the aliases on a piece of paper. _ After studying them a moment he turned to the prisoner and asked gruffly: "Which of these names is your right one?” The crook examined the list intently and appeared puzzled. “Blest if I know,” he replied with a smile. “You see,” he added apologetically, “I’ve been travelin’ under these here names so long-that Tve clean forgot my right name. But it will come to me after a bit,” and sure enough he soon re called it The name, however, was not among the aliases. Would Like to Forget “I think this fellow,” said a detec tive, "was just pretending he did not remember his name. Indeed, he would like to forget it if he could, because he has been tried and convicted under that name for more offenses than he can remember. He is, like most experi enced crooks, a masquerader. AU crooks are masqueraders, in a sense, and go through life wearing a mask. “After being initiated into the crim inal fraternity the crook resolves to cast aside his own name and take some other one. HIs main reason for doing this Is quite obvious; he desires to conceal his identity as much as pos sible. Only a fool, he'argues, would use his own name in criminal opera tions. What a sweet thing it would be for the cops if every criminal used his right name-when he went adventuring I likewise, he has other reasons for not traveling under his own name. Though he may have fallen from grace, he has qualms about using a family name that heretofore has not been dragged In the mud. He does not care for him self, but he does not want to bring disgrace on his father and mother, who are poor but respectable. Why drag them into his troubles? “He decides to take a name, and while be is a criminal that name will suffice for his purpose. If he Is caught no one will associate John Doe with John Smith. He will be arrested as John Doe, tried as JoIin Doe and, if convicted and sentenced, he will go to the pen as John Doe, and no great harm will be done to anyone except to himself. Sure to Find Him Out. “He does not pause to consider that no matter how artfully he may try to conceal) his real identity, the police will find him out. They will investi gate his past, and when they once be gin such an investigation they will be pretty sure to dig up a lot of knowl edge concerning himself and his ante cedents. “After being in the game a while the crook finds that having only one alias is insufficient He discovers the name he has been using is becoming, entirely too familiar—especially to his enemies, the cops. If you are a crook, it does not pay to advertise; accordingly, he assumes another name' and lays aside the first alias until people begin to for get it. In time , the second alias out lives its purpose and it becomes nec essary to take a third name. And this explains why criminals frequently have several aliases. "All of these aliases he finds useful. It may' not be convenient to use the name of Jim Jones in New York, but the name may do very well In another city in which he is' unknown. He would prefer, many times, not to have a name at all, but since everybody must follow the custom and have a' name, he must have one. Therefore he carries In his head several aliases, any one of which he may assume at a mo ment’s notice. These names mean a lot to him. Some of them recall pleas ant memories; others recall scenes that he would, much prefer .to forget. He remembers what Shakespeare said about calling a rose by any'other name and It would smell as sweet. Though he would like to believe this, he knows the cops have a long memory for names. No matter bow .frequently he changes his name, the cops seem to be able to discover him and drag him from obscurity.” Freak Chickens Subject of Study by Zoologist Philadelphia. — Chickens with two wings and Tour legs and even' with four wings and. four legs, and a duck ling equally strangely constituted,' were studied by. Dr. F. E- Chidester, professor of zoology at. West Virginia university, who-described observations to the American Society of Zoology, meeting here. - The freakish external features of the birds were found to be coupled with odd Internal structures. Four kidneys were found in some' of the birds, double cloacae In- all of them, and frequent variations In some of the digestive ttabes. The gizzard; how ever, remained single, nor was there any evidence of duplicity In the heart or respiratory apparatus. C O N S TA N TIN O P LE MAY CHANGE NAME City by,the Bosporus Known by Many Tales’. Washington.—The . suggestion has been made in Turkey that Constanti nople be renamed for Eemal Pasha, president of the republic. Constantinople has had many names at various times, says a bulletin of the National Geographic society from its Washington headquarters. “Not for 400 years has Constantino ple been Constantinople to the Turks. It is Stamboul to them. Some geo graphical title experts hold that Stam- boul has been abbreviated by the Turks from Constantinople just as they abbreviated ThessaIonica (Salonica) to Selanik. There are two other con tentions. One is that Stamboul is a corruption of a. phrase - which the Turkish invaders heard the Greeks say, ‘ees teen poleen,’ literally ‘to the city.’ Another supposition is that ‘islam,’ meaning ‘true believing,’ and ‘bul,* meaning ‘copious,’ have been welded together by the Turks into Stahibou!, ‘abounding in the true Mos lem faith.’ “Emperor Constantine, for whom Constantinople is named, did not him self give it that name. On May 11, 330 A. D., Constantine called together a mass meeting in the newly complet ed hippodrome. It was a ceremony of rejoicing. A new city had been built, destined to succeed Rome as capital of the Roman empire for 11 centuries. At the high point of the hippodrome pageant Constantine dedi cated the city to Christianity and named it Nova Roma. “It was the Greeks who called it Constantinoupolis and finally it be came Constantinople. The patriarch of the Greek church still signs his title ‘bishop of Constantinople, New Rome,’ but Nova Roma was forgotten. So was the original name, Byzantium for King Byzas, a local ruler, who first built a town on the Golden Horn peninsula. “Turks have had other affectionate names for Constantinople just as Americans call New Y.ork, Father Knickerbocker. Sometimes the Turks call It Oummoudunia, ‘the Mother of the World,’ and sometimes Islambol, •the City of Islam.’ Another name is Der el Saadet, ‘the City of Felicity.’ Arabs cail It by a name which is sig nificant, El Farruch, ‘the Earth Divid er.’ ” Government Railroad Reports $1,116,000 Loss Washington.—While the railroads throughout the United States are en joying'their greatest period of pros perity, the- only government-owned line—the Alaskan railroad—sustained a loss of $1,116,000 for the year, its general manager reported to the sec retary of the interior recently. Revenues of the road increased by $206,274 during the year, while operat ing expenses were cut $298,000. Plans for. the completion of the road and purchase of modern equipment call for an expenditure of approxi mately $12,000,000 during the next few years, Here Are New Words, Ttike ’Em or Leave ’Em London.—Mayfair has developed two new slang words which are now be ing worked overtime. “Marabout” is one and it is used to describe anything old-fashioned or dowdy. It is a very elastic word, however, and at the Kit Cat club It was heard applied to everything from one’s enemies to a drink of , which someone did not approve. It is a noun. The othw word is a synonym of “marabout” and is used both as a noun and an adjective. It is “cagj mag;” a variation is “cagmaggy.” Sand Heralds Knell of Artificial Lighting Darrlngton, Wash.—Here’s a mighty, interesting incident, if true, vouched for by George Van Cleve which her alds the knell of artificial lighting.

YOUNG PEO PLE AND ADULT TOP IC H ow to Overcome Tem ptation. Christ’s temptation was Messianic. No one has,ever -been tempted just like He was—led into the wilderness by the Holy Spirit to be tempted of the devil (Matt 4:11). While we are not tempted as He was, the devil uses the same methods On us. This temp tation was not: 1. A preparation for His work, but rather its first conflict. In His bap tism we have the symbolic act- of the dedication of Himself to the work of redemption through the cross—:the making full a righteousness. 2. It was not'to see if Christ would stand fast, nor to see if He would fail under the most crucial test. He could not have failed. 3. It was. to show Christ as an ob ject upon which we may rest our faith with unshaken confidence. He came as the second man, (he head of the new race. The temptation there fore was a demonstration of the In separableness of the divine and hu man natures In the incarnation. 1. The Temptation of Christ (Luke 4:1-13). L The place (v. I). The wilderness of Judea. The first man, Adam, was tempted in a garden with the most pleasant surroundings. The second man, Jesus Christ, was tempted In a barren wilderness sur rounded by wild beasts (Mark 1:13). 2. The method (w . 2-12). Christ as the world’s Redeemer sus tained a three-fold relationship—Son of Man, the Messiah and Son of God, therefore Satan made each One a ground of attack. (1) As Son of Man (w . 2-4). Satan made his first assault upon Him as a man by appealing to the instinct of hunger. Satan urged Him to use Bls divine power and. convert a stone Into bread.. Hunger is nat ural and sinless. Real human life ex periences hunger. . The temptation was In satisfying a right hunger In a wrong way. To have yielded In this case though His hunger was des perate, would have been to renounce the human limitations which He had taken for our sins. In the incarnation He became identified with humanity, so He chose to abide , in fellowship with man. (2) As Messiah (w . 5-8). Here the temptation was to grasp Hls rightful dominions by false means. The devil offered to surrender unto Him the world if He would adopt his methods—worship him. The force of this temptation was In the fact that the kingdoms of the world are Christ’s by God’s covenant with Him. God’s method by which Jesus was to possess the world was the sacrificial death on the cross. (3) As Son of God (w . 9-12). Here Satan tries to induce Christ to presume upon God’s care. He quotes a Messianic Psalm to induce Him to so act To do the spectacular thing In order to get notice is to fall into Satan’s temptation. For Jesus to have placed Himself In danger in order to get God’s special help In delivering Him would have been to sin. . (4) Christ’s defense , (w . 4, 8, 12). It was the Word of God. He met and repulsed the enemy, with “It. is written.” Our defense is God’s Word. (5) The issue (v. 13). Satan was vanquished. II. The Temptation of Believers (I Cor. 10:12, 13). . L Temptation is to be expected (v. 12). From the appearance of Satan In the Garden of Eden on dOwn through the ages men and women have been assailed by the tempter. These facts are God’s . admonitions unto us upon whom the ends of the world are come;- Caution is always necessary. Over- weanlng self-confidence is most peril ous to those who rest In the security of their divine election while neglect ing a life of holiness. Z Divine help available (v. 18). AU temptation* which come to us are those which are common to . the race. No one should surmise'that his temptation is peculiar. God is faith: ful and will not allow the temptation to go beyond the - ability of the one tempted. He wUT provide a. way of escape.

WeaMrn Newepaper imiog.) Dreetming of a Body, He Unearths Skeleton Lebanon, Pa.—Dreaming night after night of a body buried in his cellar crying “dig me out, dig me out, I’ve been here 40 years,” John Wentzel went to the cellar and found a skeleton burled near the foot of the stairs. Wentzel reported his find to the’ police; also what impelled him to make the search. He is to be questioned as to how he chanced to locate the bones on his first response to the alleged call from the dead. The bones are those of an adult. The Wentzel home is on the border of what was once a cemetery. Evidence of a box, found with the body, gave some color to speculation that the body may have been properly buried. Wentzel and his family have lived at the place eight years. The bones were evidently in the ground upward of 15 years. MISSING 57 YEARS VIEWS OWN STATUE Wanderer Finds Memorial to His Memory. Toledo, Ohio.—John O’Herlihy, sev enty-seven years old, came home after an absence of 57 years and gazed with bewilderment at a handsome statue in his memory. “The old town ain't what she used to be,” he mused as his gaze rested on a skyscraper which occupied the former site of a cowshed on his father’s farm. The veteran also learned that the farm pond now is a municipal lake and that the beautiful Church of the Immaculate Conception had been built, from his inheritance, forfeited when he had been declared legally dead. O’Herlihy ran away from his fa ther’s place when he was a stripling. Toledo was hardly more. The farm then was on the edge of the village which long since has grown into a city with the farm at its center. The wanderer, who lias been shunned by good fortune In his peregrinations, cast a ruminating eye at the massive marble slab which commemorated the good deeds of a youth who had willed his ail to the church. His relatives all are dead and. but few persons recognized the grizzled man. Gun-Toting Flapper Puzzle to Old Man Bock Island, 111.—Beyond under standing are the ways of a woman, at least the ways of the present-day “flapper,” admits W. H. Mahoney of this city. Mr. Mahoney was- sleeping peace fully In his home when the door of his bedroom opened, awakening him, and a girl of sixteen, lithe, slim, trim and bobbed-haired, tripped In. Mr. Mahoney’s mature judgment told him this was no dream girl. He Ib seventy-one years old. “Listen, grandpop,” she said, and she still smiled, “you do as I want and you’re not hurt.” “Yes’m,” said Mr. Mahoney. “But I got nothing you want. Tm only a poor old man.” The visitor was not listening. Gun In hand, she stepped behind the door with Mr. Mahoney’s clothes. Soon she. emerged clad In his garments and with his cash In her hand. Then she forced Mr. Mahoney to chop off all the locks she showed beneath his cap, which she was wearing. “I’ve been out drinking hooch all evening, have had a devil of a time, and must get away,” the visitor chat ted merrily. “My boy friend and I are going to hop a freight Good night, grandpa.” Police are seeking-Beulah Nichols. Her parents identified the clothes she left In Mahoney's room as hers. They said Beulah was given to the “movie” habit Adrift 3 Months on Sea, Six Seniors Are Rescued Manila, P. L-A fter drifting in a disabled motor boat for more than three months in the south seas, six young sailors from Celebes Island, a Dutch possession south of here, were brought to Manila aboard the steamer Shurruca, following their rescue off the coast of Mindanao island. Originally a party of 12, they left Celebes last July for the neighboring island of Siuaw to ,sell merchandise and take gifts to a couple about to be married here. On the return trip the engine broke down and a heavy gale blew them far off their course. The food supply dwindled until nothing was left but rice. They managed to exist on this until November I, when six of them died.

Mr. Spry P es raBny friends and relatives to TMn his death ' - To The People of Mocksville. There has been a great deal of talk on the streets of Mocksville, and in,, the places of business, about selling our Light and Power distribution system to the Southern Public Utilities Co., and as we! = all know, the town board of commissioners, |=s advertised the call of an election, for an - = 1 expression from the people as to their!S wishes in the matter; in two issues of a local paper, after which the advertise-, ment was withdrawn for further investi gation. The Southern Public Utilities Co., re quired the wording of the advertisement to be such we would have to sell to them without competition, and grant them a franchise to operate in the town of Mocks ville for a petiod of sixty years, under rules and regulations governed by the cor poration commisson of North Carolina. When we investigated the rates allowed by them to the consumers we found them to be much less than the town was charging its citizens, but allowed them the privalege of charging the municipali ties of the state a very high rate for the street lights. For example a two hundred and fifty watt street light would cost forty dollars per year. We had sixty, five of these lights, which would cost all told twenty six hundred dollars. And twelvo lights four hundred watt at fifty dollars per light, or six hundred dollafs, making a total of thirty-two hundred dollars for lighting our streets. . There is a wide difference of opinion as to the cost of pumping the water. The average of the high and low figures is a- bout thirty eight hundred dollars, that we would have to pay the Southern Public Utilities Co., from the taxes of the town. And would requite a raise in the tax levy of forty cents per hundred dollars. We believe the revenue derived from the lighting system as operated under the present management, will retire the a- mount of bonds offered by the Southern Public Utilities Co., (that "is forty-five thousand and five hundred dollars) with-j in twenty years, and be worth as much at I that time as it is today. We would like to have the Southern Publ ic Utilities Co, operating-in our town and are well aware of the benefits to be i derived by-having this great corporation | boosting our town, and we believe we have their sympathy and cooperation now. for which we are grateful, but are forced to the conclusion that when we increase our taxes in the county as a whole from three dollars advaloruni to three dollars and forty cents, we are making it impos sible for the Southern Public Utilities Co., or anv other company to help us, inas much as we are driving industry away.

We people of Mocksville are all excited and are not doing anything that will re medy the evil. Did you know that the present high tax rates may be the cause of low valuations? That insteat of one million, eight thousand dollars in the in corporate limits of Mocksville, we shsuld have two million and five hundred thous and dollars? There is a cause for the loss of seven hundred thousand dollars. We believe it is due to thembsence of-confidence in our town. The people of .Mocksvile are not investing their money at home. This bigh tax rates forces them to seek non-taxable securities or invest where the taxes- are lower. The American eagle is a fearless bird but his image on a dollar seems to be shy and is very easily frightened. Let us get together and sell Mocksville to our selves and then we can put it on the market, restore confidence in our town, and show the man who has money that he can invest it at home and not be held Up.
