Mr. Critchett says America is responsible for the pauperizing of Armenia and that the millions we are pouring in­ to that unfortunate country only serve to make conditions worse, and he gives plain anfP practical reasons for his statements. Having been for many months right on the ground and in the heart of things there, he surely knows what he is talking about. Manufacturing will boom In 1920 as it never did before. Will Nash­ ville continue to sleep on its oppor­ tunities during the coming year?

Nashville could double Its pop­ ulation in the next two years and double or triple the value of every piece of property in the rl>|“ir>lHffTr could get one or two new manufac­ turing institutions. H. H. Church, who returned last Wednesday from Florida, where he ipent several weeks making repairs and improvements to his property at Stuart, brought home a sample of the dirt which composes the land of the Everglades, the great swamp of Southern Florida which is in pro­ cess of being drained. He says thousands of acres of this land, which had been covered with water until three or four years ago, is now .under cultivation and being made to produce wonderful crops. The soil is black as night and immensely rich, in fact so rich that thousands of cars of It are being shipped to be used as fertiliser. Drainage canals are still being run and many more thousands of acres of this immense­ ly rich land will be reclaimed. He brought home samples of the vari­ ous fruits being raised on his place at Btuart. and shared them with us. He says living conditions are pret­ ty bad in Florida this season, the most exhorbitant prices being charg­ ed for almost .everything except fruits. �$ ANCIENT HISTORY XITE DESIRE TO.

Monday morning, while turning the wringer, how lit­ tle we have to kick about in this country, after all. In spite of the profiteers, the strikes, the labor agi­ tators. tbe scarcity of print paper, the high price of sugar, and all the thousand and one things we can find every day to kick about, most of us have enough to eat and enough to wear, and comfortable houses to live in, and our choice of half a dozen dif­ ferent churches to attend, and a whole lot of good friends whose so­ ciety we enjoy, and blessings without number. And while it's all right In every way to use our most earnest endeavors to straighten up the things that are wrong and to make the world brighter and better, let us at tbe same time welcome the new year with our most gracious smile and firmly resolve that we will do our darndest to make everybody arouqd us happier than they have ever been before, and in that we will find that we have done ourselves the greatest favor.

This doesn’t re­ fer to Doc. Morris giving us a shot of vaccine in the nrm, either, because we guess he knows all about that and we are beginning to think we do. But it does happen to touch Colin T. Munro up a little bit. You know Colin Just bought himself a nice new Nash car. and somebody told him he must drain the radiator, so it wouldn’t freeze, nnd he must be sure and get the water all out. So he went aL it and he opened every petcock he could find in and around the car, which happened to include the one under the carburetor. Well, he got the radiator drained, all right, and if he did happen to let a lot of perfectly good gasoline run away, that's nobody’s business but Colin's, as we know of.

Well, we did finally get In another shipment of print paper, just this week, so the old sheet will probably issue as per usual for some time yet. •But we wish some good Samaritan would tell us how and where to get another shipment. Print paper Is getting about as scarce as whiskey. Starting off the new year of 1920, we hereby firmly resolve not to tell any more lies about our friends in this column than we did last year. That’s promising something, too, be­ cause there will be fifty-three issues of the old sheet in the present year. It was a pleasant lively scene and carried Nfcvil Brookes back to his early youth. Seated In a comfortable loung­ ing chair on the porch, he had a full view of half a dozen little girls en­ gaged in tbe old-fashioned game of “hop scotch." / Upon the smooth cement pavement the group had drawn in chalk the con­ ventional body of the subdivided dia­ gram, rounding it with “the moon," to attain which, by bopping on ope foot and speeding a flat pebble without rest­ ing on a line was to score i victory. Suddenly the play suspended “Oh. there’s Marty Doane—she will show us how to flip Into the moon arose In a tumultuous shout Brookes leaned over toward the street to make out a girl of about sev­ enteen, exquisitely dainty tn form and feature with a wealth of sunny golden hair like an aureole, and lithe and graceful in all her movements. A rippling smile Irradiated her lips and she welcomed the Juvenile onslaught with caressing kindliness. The delectable Marty’s loving and accomodating nature showed fully as she took her position at “goal." set the pebble given her, and proceeded to demonstrate her capability as a hop scotch expert. Brookes watched her with profound admiration. Just then an overdressed, slatternly woman appeared, a great, hulking young man at her side. She darted forward as she made out the girl. "What’s this?" she shouted at Marty. “Nice actions for a woman grown, and promised!” “Promised?" cried th«t girl scorn­ fully. "Who to?" “To him, Dan Reeves." and the wom­ an Indicated, her companion. "Who promised me?" challenged " ' Marty. “I did; and didn't he give you a ring?" “You mean he forced It on me.’ flared up the girl. "There Is his cheap gift!" and tearing a tawdry circlet from her finger she flung It to the pave­ ment, gave It a blow with her toe, and added: “If be ever tries to kiss me again I’ll kill him. and If you lay your hands on me I'll run away!" and like some proud empress, the aroused girl left the spot, her head high tn the air. Nevll Brookes was recovering from a fit of sickness and had sought rest and quiet In the boarding house where he was passing his convalescence. He asked his landlady about the girl who had Interested him. • “Oh, you mean Marty Doane." spoke the woman. "Poor girl! but good girl. Her father died, leaving her to the mercies of a cruel stepmother, who la anxious to get rid of her care and has tried to favor the suit of that Reeves fellow, but Marty despises There wns a little park that Brookes strolled In every morning, and the next day he. was attracted by the sound of low sobbing beyond some shrubbery. He went over to the spot Upon a bench, n bundle at her feet We saw a lad the ether day do and weeping bitterly, was the hop something that convinces us he is scotch girl. being brought up by a good, old"Are you In trouble, miss?" spoke fashioned mother.

This play, which will be shown at the Park theatre on the 31st for a one day engagement, was adapted from the story of tbe same name that appeared in the Saturday Evening Post and which was written by Frederick Orin Bartlett. At the time of its publication the story at­ tracted nation-wide notice and was I declared by other authors to be a ! gem of humor and ingenuity, worthy of being called a classic. In its adaption for the screen the plot has been very carefully followed and the picture has proved one of those sur­ prises which jaded critics often hope for but seldom see. It contains many laughs and fnuch wholesome romance which makes it a veritable : mine ot delight. | Remember this Is New Years eve ■ —we will furnish amusement till 12 •o’clock.

And while it’s all right in every way to use our most earnest endeavors to straighten up the things that are wrong and to make the world brighter and bettor, let us at the same time welcome the new year with our most gracious smile and firmly resolve that we will do our darndest to make everybody aroupd us happier than they have ever been before, and in that we will find that we have done ourselves the greatest favor.

So he went at it and he opened every petcock he could find in and around the car, which happened to include the one under the carburetor. Well, he got the radiator drained, all right, and if he did happen to let a lot of perfectly good gasoline run away, that’s nobody's business but The “Hop Scotch” Girl By GENEVIEVE ULMAR paper Utlou.) It was a pleasant, lively scene and carried Nevll Brookes back to his early youth. -Seated In a comfortable loung­ ing chair on the porch, he had a full view of half a dozen little girls en­ gaged In the old-fashioned game of "hop scotch.” > Upon the smooth cement pavement the group had drawn in chalk the con­ ventional body of the subdivided dia­ gram, rounding it with “the moon," to attain which, by bopping on one foot and speeding a flat pebble without rest-. Ing on a line was to score t victory. Suddenly the play suspended "Oh, there’s Marty Doane—she will show us how to flip Into the moon!” arose in a tumultuous shout Brookes leaned over toward the street to make out a girl of about sev­ enteen, exquisitely dainty in form and feature with a wealth of sunny golden hair like an aureole, and lithe aud graceful In all her movements. A rippling smile irradiated her lips and she welcomed the juvenile onslaught with caressing kindliness. The delectable Marty’s loving and accomodating nature showed fully gs she took her position at "goal," set the pebble given her, and proceeded to demonstrate her capability as a hop scotch expert. Brookes watched her with profound admiration. Just then an overdressed, slatternly woman appeared, a great, hulking young man at her side. She darted forward as she made out the girl. “What’s this?" she shouted at Marty. “Nice actions for a woman grown, and promised!" “Promised?" cried thd girl scorn­ fully. “Who to?" “To him, Dan Reeves," nnd the wom­ an Indicated, her companion. “Who promised me?’ dial longed Marty. “I did; and didn’t he give you a ring?” “You mean he forced It on me.’ flared up the girl. “There is his cheap gift!“ and tearing a tawdry circlet from her finger she flung it to the pave­ ment. gave it a blow with her toe, and added: “If he ever tries to kiss me again I’ll kill him. and If you lay your hands on me I’ll run away!" and like some proud empress, the aroused girt left the spot, her head high in And now Doc.

The More Expense, the Less Your Family Benefits Every person who executes a will is required by law to give a bond, the cost of which is deducted from the estate. All attorney fees also come out of the estate. When the Grand Rapids Trust Com­ pany is appointed executor, the cost of a bond is saved, because we have on de­ posit with the state $150,000. We have our own attorneys too, and save your estate this expense. ItRand Rapids] rust piiMPAMy GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN Christmas is Over, We are Alive and Glad of It.

Remember, there is nothing that Is so often put off as the making application for life insurance. How many of yonr ac­ quaintances have died without suitable insurance simply be­ cause they put it off from day to day tntil it ran from month to month and year to year. The older you are when you start the higher premium you must pay and you also run the risk of contracting disease or injury that will forever place in­ surance out of your reach. Come in and look over the vari­ ous toims of policies, (there are about 80 of them) and de­ cide which is best fitted to your particular needs. Women can obtain insurance at the same rates as men.

When he died he wished them to con­ tinue living with as nearly the same comforts and con­ veniences as possible. So he appointed a trust company exe­ cutor of his will. His estate was skillfully managed, his family unbothered. Every month their income came as. regularly as the clock. Is it not better to appoint the Grand Rapids Trust Com­ pany your executor. family?

TERMS OF SALE—Sums of $5.00 and under, cash; over that amount, nine months on good bankable paper at six per cent interest Edd Shepard PROP. Henry Bidelman, Auctioneer F. Kent Nelson, Clerk 1 A pernllnrly ptacid and uneventful life had Ariine Merritt led. Her mother had died when she was twelve and for six years the daughter bad passed most of her time at a select boarding school. All that time Ariine never returned to the home where Rhe was born. Four times a year her father spent a day at the school, brought her many pres­ ents and supplied her liberally with spending money. At each visit Ariine referred to the old home In the city and expressed a longing desire to spend her vacation there. “You will soon be eighteen,’’ said her father, “and then y‘ou shall come home for good to keep house for me," nnd at his last visit he had added: “You won’t know the old place. Ariine. My means have continued' modest, but I have managed to save enough to ren­ ovate house, and grounds and It will be a snug nest. 'Happiness Alley* they call the little blind end block; It has only ten houses Ita entire length, but each one la occupied by some old time family re.MdentR." “ 'Happiness Alley,'" repeated Ar* line dreamily. "What a charming name! Why do they call It that, paper , “It Is really Gresham court, of course," responded Mr. Merritt, “the little spot rigtit In the heart of the city and yet quiet nnd vernal as some country Inne. You see, our neighbors and myself started In trade ou the business street nearby when It was far from being built up. and settled in Gresham court fox our homes. We have been closely connected, both as to business and socially, and a little community of genial, bumble store­ keepers hnve led peaceful, happy lives, with no ambition toward splurge and show.’’ It was a golden day in the experi­ ence of Ariine when she left school for home. She went into raptures over the broad porched cottage looking ont upon a lovely garden, all fenced in and at Its rear a high brick wall shutting out the rear of the business buildings fronting on the next street. An old woninn sen-ant relieved Ariine of all household. drudgery, the neighbors greeted her warmly. Plain, practical people, the denizens of Happiness Al­ ley were sincere, unpretentious and entirely apart from show or glitter. Their clean, even Ilves shut out all extravagance and follv. and Happiness Alley was not a misnomer. ' Unexpectedly Mr. Merritt sickened and died nnd Ariine wns left nlone. It was her first real sorrow, and the kindly sympathy of the neighbors bound her more closely to them and to her home. She settled resignedly Into the groove of a calm, even life. She grew sedate. Instead of gloomy. A bench under a greet flowering tree overhanging the rear wall became a favorite spot with Ariine. One evening she looked up ns there was a rustling In the tree overhead. She Htnrted to her feet as she made out a figure, hanging on the top of the wall and clutching at a swaying branch. It broke with the adventurer and he fell In a senseless heap almost at Arllne’s feet. She could not repress n sdfream. From the little two room cot­ tage where he had his living quarters the old garoler.er came hurrying to the spot. The intruder was 8 young man zlrouuArl drMwed tn In neglectfulntflrn attirennd andhiehis pnle face suggested the invalid or con­ valescent. Old Hugh carried him to the coMage and placed him on his bed. “He is not hurt by his fall, only stunned," he said. "It looks to me as If he was getting sway from some­ body. Shall we call the police?" “Oh, no! No!" responded Ariine quickly, Interested strangely In the In­ truder—"at least not until we learn his story. You will undertake his care, Hugh?" “Surely, if yon say so. Miss,” replied the old gardener and the next day, able to sit up but still looking weak and troubled, the young man told Ariine of himself and her compassionate soul was moved to kindly sympathy. He was Sidney Marsh, he told Ariine, and for over a year the subject of peril and prosecution at the hands of schemers who had swindled his father out of his rights in a corpora­ tion of which the latter, now dead, had been an official. In order to ter­ rorize Sidney their emissaries bad as­ saulted him, had once kidnaped him and held him a captive for months, and everything now depended on the young man finding a safe seclusion until the day of trial, a few weeks ahead. They had located him the day of his fall from the tree, and In es­ caping Sidney had scaled the wall and met with his present friends.

Cat, Jan. «, 1920. Friend Fike: News might be Interested in a let­ ter from this part of the U. S. A. I will take a tew moments to try to describe some of the acenes along the route. , I left Naponee, Nebraska, Decem­ ber 26, and arrived in Denver, Colo­ rado, the next morning, stopping there over Sunday. Took train at 8.30 Monday morning for Salt Lake City, over the Denver & Dio Grande, and I must admit that I never be­ lieved there was as beautiful scen­ ery In the United States as I saw between Denver and Salt Lake City. The first scene of note was Castle Rock, which' was one of Colorado's land marks In the old days of the wagon trains across the prairies, be­ fore the time of the steam roads. Second was Palmer lake, a beauti­ ful sheet of water 52 miles south or Denver. This lake was named in honor of General Palmer, the pro­ jector and builder of the Denver & Rio Grande railroad, claimed to be the most beautiful scenic lino In tho world. I shall not attempt to de­ scribe all of the scenes along the route, tor it would take too much space In the News, and I do not feel that I can commence to do it jus­ tice. It must be seen to be appreciate<L I arrived in Salt Lake City Decem­ ber 30, and called up W. M. Ferry, to see If I could get in touch with G. A. Truman. I found him at the apartments of his son. Sanford J., and he later met me at San's office and we went out to Fort Douglas together. I attended the funeral of General Young on the 31st, and also a musical on New Years day at the Mormon - tabernacle. They claimed there were 12,000 people present on each occasion. I left Salt Lake New Years night and arrived In Ontario the evening of January 2, and am stopping with Alvah O. Bivens, formerly of Maple Grove, where I can look out of my window and see the oranges hanging on the trees, and by raising my eyes can see snow on top of the mountains in the background. Believing I have intruded on you long enough for the first letter, I will stop for this time, wishing all the readers of The News a Happy New Year. Youra very truly, J. D. Guy. Ontario, Cal.

The public endorsement of a local citizen is the best proof that can be produced. None better, none strong­ er can be had. When a man comes forward and testifies to his fellow­ citizens, addresses his friends and neighbors, you may be sure he is thoroughly convinced or he would not do so. Telling one’s experience when it is tor the public good is an act of kindness that should be ap­ preciated. The following statement given by a resident of Nashville adds one more to the many cases of Home Endorsement which are bqing pub­ lished about Doan'? Kidney Pills. Read it. J. E. Surine, retired farmer, Gregg & Phillips streets, says: "I think camping out while in the army brought on kidney trouble in my case. The kidney secretions passed too frequently and were very pain­ ful. I suffered from rheumatic twinges and was lame and sore across my back. 1 bought Doan’s Kidney Pills at Furniss’ drug store nnd they relieved me of the trouble. This was some time ago and I have had little cause for complaint since." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Surine had.

Certain Instances of birds found singly far to the north of their usual range are possibly to be explained by the whirl of cyclonic storms. The wind, turning counter clockwise, blows oft shore In the south and carries the bird, out to sea. But, sooner or later. the bird has the good fortune to out the experience, the farther ap!n of the storm tends to bring him ashore again. .. To be Built by the Flowers Mausoleum Company It is the purpose of this article to describe briefly a new and beauti­ ful Mausoleum to be erected in Lakeview cemetery, the exterior ot the building to be built of Stone, and Interior ol Marble The Rotunda will be a beautiful Chapel, the large hallway of the Mausoleum eleven feet wide and the full length of the building, was de­ signed especially for use as a chapel With Ceramic Floors and Art Glass Windows Tho rites that customarily are held in the open, about the grave, will naturally be held In the Mausoleum, In the space In front of the com­ partment to which the body is to be consigned. Absolute Freedom From Dampness The entire structure will be characterized by several important fea­ tures, the first of these being freedom from dampness. It Is only too true that no underground burial can secure this great consideration, even in the most advantageous location, as there Is a part of each year when the level of the water in the ground rises to within a few feet of the surface, and a grave is very damp, if not actually flooded. Picture to yourself the bottom of a grave after a period of long continued rain; the dampness, mold and decay. Compare this with the interior of the Mausoleum where EACH CASKET IN A SOLID COMPARTMENT, HI6H ABOVE THE GROUND Is removed from even the remotest influence of dampness, the entire building, both within and without, being open to the benefleient influ­ ence of sunlight. In truth there can be no real comparison between the two. It may not be out of place to suggest the wisdom of a plan that makes provision beforehand for the last resting place of one’s family. In the stress of grief at the time of death, when In the shadows of great affliction, the soul sits dumb, these matters are usually left to some friend or relative who, perhaps, has little idea of the actual wishes of the ones most concerned. There is, then, never ending regret on the part of the Immediate family. Don't you feel you ought to make that provision at this time? Did you ever stop to think that in the rush of business and hurry to obtain for ourselves the pleasures and comforts of this life, we forget tho fact that ere long we must lie down and sleep the sleep that knows no waking until the last day and leave all our attainments, all our success­ es at that point where this deep slumber shall overtake us? s. In conclusion, Mr. J. W. Flowers who is here taking orders for compartments in the Mausoleum, is stopping at the Commercial Hotel, and will endeavor to call upon all to explain the mode of burial and con­ struction of the building, but if any reader of this article wishes to con­ sult Mr. Flowers, please call up the hotel and leave order where to call. This Mausoleum will be amply endowed so that the future of the build­ ing will be assured. The cost ot the compartments are moderate In price. Remember, we build for only those who subscribe, so If you want them, now is the time to get them. Think, Think, Think It Over! THE FLOWERS MAUSOLEUM CO. MAPLE SUGAR MAKERS TO .MEET] SCHOOL NOTES.

In executing a will, usually there are many legal requirements to fulfill, contracts to draw, appraisals to make, and sales to execute. No person appointed executor because he is a friend has the wide experience needed to handle these matters, nor can afford to take the time from his business. Every procedure is strange to him. He goes slow. Delays oc­ cur. He consults law­ yers at every step, and their fees are charged to the estate. He must give bonds, and the estate pays for them.

MAXEY THE NEW YORK STATE CANAL. BARGE An appealing story of mother-love and war, depicted in the sacrifices of a Canadian mother who gloried in the deaths of four of her five sons in the cause of humanity, and in the unselfish loyalty of her daughter-in­ law, Nanette, who left her own baby at home to follow her husband to the battlefields of France to work, as­ a Red Cross nurse, to alleviate the pain of wounded soldiers and restore orphaned and homeless children tonormal physical and mental condition—a throbbing portrayal ot woman’s work to conserve the lives which. Prussian autocracy would destroy. O open the western country and provide «afe and cheap transpor­ Ttation for market-bound products, the Improvement of the waterways was an absolute necessity. Governor De Witt Clinton dreamed/ of a state-own­ ed canal. The route was inspected and approved by President George Washington, engineer and surveyor. The Erie canal, opened in 1825. fourfeet deep. 42 fee® wide and floating boats carrying 30 tons, was the result. Many laughed at it. calling It “Clin­ ton’s Big Ditch." In conjunction with the Niagara river, it connected Lake Erie anu the Hudson river. Prior to its opening. Philadelphia was America’s greatest seaport. Af­ ter its completion, the shipping nat­ urally went to New York and the splendid chain of prosperous cities which won for New York the title of Empire state, sprang up along the route. The canal did such an enormous business that In 1903, the people of the state decided to make it a barge canal, hence the name. The present main canal Is 12 feet deep. 75 to 200 feet wide. 339 miles long and has three branches aggre­ gating 100 miles in length. It Is one of the world’s greatest engineering feats and fa ten tlmaa as long as the Panama canaL It contains 57 locks, each 828 feet long and 45 feet wide.

When hr built his hnuee, the best aituatetl in the village, it bad two fronts. One, with a big piazza, faced the street; here .Katie, his wife., sat and sewed or visited. The other fac­ ed the men do wk behind the hill town; here, silent and moody, Peter used to sit and gaze at the faraway blue out­ lines of beautiful eastern mountalna. They were not as friendly as hue­ band and wife should be—Peter and Katie weren’t There were no chil­ dren to bind their hearts together; then, too, Katie loved her neighbor* and Peter did not He would Dot even go to the little meeting house on Sabbath days, and Katie’s heart was bitter about this. The minister' once expostulated, but Peter led him through his house and onto the back, or rather the front porch. “That there’s my cnurch. and good enough for me?’ he answered, point­ ing toward the mountains, which lay serene, majestic, understanding. In the purple-red colors of sunset, and no more would he any. . Two days after Emma Simonds died. Kaue went Into Peter’s garden and found Emma’s four-year-old daughter there playing “mudples" with Peter. They seemed the best of chums. At sight of Katie Peter drew the bare-footed, roguish-eyed child down beside him. His great, gaunt body trembled with tenderness. "I shall keep her, he said defiantly. Katie looked at Gladdie’s irrespon­ sible face and shuddered. “The idea!" she objected. “You're enuy, Peter. Her aunt Ellall have to take her. It’s mighty risky takln' oth­ er folkses' young uns to bring up. Be­ sides, I don’t have no time to look af­ ter a child, anyway. And what would the neighbors think?" Peter’s eyes blazed. “Hillcrest •ain’t my Judge,’’ he an­ swered shortly. Peter’s wife smiled sardonically. “Well, along ’b she don’t bother me, she can stay," and sue went back Into the house. Peter and Gladdie sat on, hand in hand, on the steps. “Daddy.” she said joyously, and stroked his face, lie gathered her in­ to his anus and sne cuddled up against his breast ana slept. The sun went down and the mountains took bn vague, haunting outlines in <he darkening distance; peace lay over the valley world, and Peter's eyes hun­ grily took In the slgnt until his soul was satisfied, and he, too, slept Ills head against the porch railing. They were still there when Katie, returning from an evening call, came out and found them. “So this is the way you’re goln’ to take care of her. Is it. Peter?" she Oared. “She’s probably got her . death of cold.” Oh. yes. Kate knew how her words were hurting the man she had married. “She’ll go to her Aunt Ella’s tomorrow. Just as sure as the sun comes up.” Sbe took the sleeping child and bundled her Into the house. Peter fol­ lowed, crestfallen, conscience struck. Not for worlds would he have harmed the child he was learning to love pas­ sionately. In time Tic got back some of his dignity. “You let me have her.” he com­ manded firmly. “I want to look after heplny&elf. and I'm goin’ to keep her, too.” he added not so firmly. “Till momln’,” Katie Agreed, grimly, nnd went out to sit alone on her porch. Gladdie was wide awake now and her happy laughter came out to Katie. Somehow It drove the anger out of her heart and filled It with a strange des­ olate feeling. “What’s that. Daddy?” Gladdie was asking. Gladdle's up-bringing had been woefully deficient In some lines. “A nightie-gown? Is it Gladdie’s, dad­ dy?" "It’s Gladdle’s tonight," she heard Peter say. gently. “We’ll get Gladdie one of her own tomorrow." “Who has It when Glnddle ain’t here,” the child persisted. “Katie.” gruffly. “Who’s Katie, DaddyF ‘ “She’s—she’s,” Katie knew her hus­ band was groping for words, “she's your new mainniu.” Katie rose angrily. To put such no­ tions into the child’s head I “Peter.” she called, ‘‘you harness Ned and take that young un to her aunt Ella’s right off. She ain’t goln’ to stay here another minute. D’yoa Peter came out to the porch. “I ain’t goln’ to take her back, Katie," he breathed heavily. . 2.69 .05 1.00 1.20 .84 "I wants to kiss mamma good-night, too." a plaintive voicesald and a lit­ tle white figure, holding up a huge home of their parent*, Mr. and Mra. nightgown, stumbled between them, A.

At the other end two rough- I ly dreaxed men stood on guard, situb . larly grim and menacing. Blair had been dazing. The pleasant face of a young lady scaled opposite to him lingered in his mind as he fell into dreamy rever.e. A little child accompanying her had climbed over to the window beside him. The former bad arisen to her feet, terror in her face. She reached for toe child in­ stantly and clasped her protecting!/, not, however, until Blair bad acted on the impulse of a quick thinker aud an experienced traveling man. A “hold up!" had reached his hear­ ing, recalling to him that a little case In bls pocket contained tour diamond rings, each one worth several thousand dollars. As the little one was ^jvept from his side, he snatched the case from his pocket and deposited It in that of the jacket the little child wore. “March into tbe next car, you men 1" gruffly ordered the single Intruder, coming down tbe aisle, and tbe eight male passengers meekly and wisely, obeyed. They were driven across the platform into a coach, quickly discon­ nected. and the first coach and the ex­ press car ahead of it was run down a siding half a mile by toe engines The safe in the forward coach was run- • sacked, and within the hour the train ; hands had righted things, gradually recovering from the shock of the ad­ venture. Neva Drury and her little niece, Caroline, reached their home at Wybnrq. Miss Drury had noticed that; the bright faced young man who ha.. | • shown her little courteous attentions as a fellow traveler was missing. It was not until- afterward that she learned that he and others had resist- j ed confinement in the rear coach, and be had been dealt a heavy blow by one of the train robbers. When the train; resumed. iLs course Itodney. Blair lay insensible and did not recover until after they had reached the city. It was quite an excitable afternoon at the Drury home. The holdup ex­ perience had to be detailed and cre­ ated quite a thrill with the rest of the household. Then a diversion, came. Neva had uiude her train journey to provide some little articles of dress site required for a party to which she had been Invited. The Drurys were In modest circumstances, Neva wan sewing on it dress the day after, the holdup when her mother startled her with the exclamation: “For mercy’s rake! what has that child got?" Little Caroline sat on tbe floor play­ ing with a case, out of which four rings had rolled. A dazzle of the most bewildering radiance, the child was tossing them aitont carelessly. "Why. where did you get them, Caro­ line Y’ Inquired her sister. “1 found them Id my pocket,” was the artless reply. "I think the man on the train put them there when the teacher made him hold up his hands." It took Neva some time to figure out the guesswork that Instantly presented itself to her mind. Within an hour she had sent to toe railroad office at toe city, a succinct account of toe cir­ cumstance ss she comprehended IL The evening of the party an irresis­ tible impulse seized Neva to wear the most beautiful of the four costly rings. What harm could it do? Giri-like, th$ prospect of exciting tbe wonderment of her associates tempted her. Her brother saw her safely to rhe house of her hostess to call fur her at eleven o’clock. The Imrrowed ring attracted great attention and Neva enjoyed the i myotificatioD and interest of her girl friends. She was ail aglow with ex­ citement and pleasure when ahe bade tier hustews good night, and the glean) of the ring on her Unger in the moon­ light caused a sigh as she reflected how she must soon get bark to lhe common things of life.

ES, sir, we mean that same warm red and gold tin that smiles a welcoming “Howdy” to you in every tobacco store. Know what those colors mean? Y The red is for the friendly warmth, the mellow cheeriness, that Velvet puts into your old pipe. And the gold is where the Kentucky sunshine, that ripens good old Velvet, lias just sort of soaked through. Remember what Veloet Joe said about it? "You’ve met canned meat and canned music. Ever see any tinned sunshine? Well, look into any Velvet tin.” And think this over: We don’t have to hide Velvet’s taste or smell with a lot of this, that and the other thing. Because Velvet has naturally what pipe smokers want—real simonpure tobacco taste and fragrance. It’s just gpod, honest Kentucky leaf; made still more friendly and mellow by two years’ ageing in wooden hogsheads. Just good .tobacco. That’s all. But it’s mighty near enough for the man who wants a pipeful of tobacco and not a box of bon bons. The picture of a pipe on the tin needn’t keep you ■from rolling a iim-dandy cigarette with Velvet. Ilov/s the Velvet holding out in your old red tin? TWP. 3 N. of RANGE 7 W. North part of EH of NWK 28 Sou tli of HlKhvkay TffP. 4 N. of RANGE 8 W. North j*art of NEK TWP. 1 N. of RANGE O W.

On this spot on June 17. 1775. was fought the famous Battle of.Bunker Hill, between the Britisl/and : American forces. Here the gratitude and patriotism of the American peo­ ple have caused to be erected a great granite obelisk aa a memorial.

It Is an interesting fact that the corner stone was laid by General La­ Fayette, a son of glorious France, dur­ ing bis famous visit to America in 1825. The monument was dedicated In 1842, on which occasion Daniel Webster spoke these famous words: “It looks. It speaks.

PROPRIETOR KPXHPK S*00 Reward, >*00 Writing, to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Lake, of this village, Ruth Lake, a teacher iu the Flint schools, gives the following thrilling ac-j count of an accident in which a ■ horrible catastrophe was narrowly | averted: “1 nearly forgot to tell you that last Wednesday night when we' (Rhea, Florence and 1) were going: home we were on a car that was so; crowded, that we could hardly I breathe, but as luck would have it, I wo had seats. We weren't paying: much attention to where we were, when all of a sudden 1 heard some I one say "Oh!" iu such an awful tone.; About that time everyone who was] standing went fiat in the aisle. Some one knocked my hat over one ear, and yet I never moved. When I looked up, I looked right into the ••face" of a Grand Trunk engine. We were silting directly across the car from where the engine had struck us. I woke up about that time. Everyone was getting up and no one seemed hurt. Then the en­ gine backed, out of us, and of course there was quite a little smoke arouud the engine. Rhea saw it and yelled out "Are we afire?” But thank goodness, we were not. The engine was not going very fast and, us luck would have it, we hud a trailer behind us which was loaded too. They said that steadied from a worse accident. As it they pulled the blamed car back on the track and we went on home, al­ though there was a big hole in the side of the car large enough for me to crawl into. Tell Mr. Glasgow that is the beauty of having no gates at the crossing. Of course I know he hasn't anything to do with it, but I want him to know. Now don't be frightened for it is all over now.

Give Me a Friendly, Natural Hand-shake an’ a friendly natural tobacco. Keep yo’ puton airs an’ “sauced-up” tobaccos for the fellow that likes nut sundaes better than home made So says a friend of ours named Velvet Joe. And he just about hits the nail on the head. Velvet is made for men who think there’s no smoke like real tobacco. If you are that sort of man, listen; Vfelvet was bom in old Kentucky, where more than one good thing comes from. It was raised as carefully as any othei Kentucky thoroughbred. But the real secret of Velvet’s friendly qualities is its slow natural ageing in wooden hogsheads. Ageing in the wood never hurt anything—and least of all, tobacco. And so we say, Velvet is good tobacco­ nothing more or less. It runs second to none. The picture of the pipe on the tin needn’t keep you from rolling a jim-dandy cigarette with Velvet mer’s aunt, Mrs. - Charlotte Guntrip, ,ind *»n George. , The late-’i. influenza victims are Mre.

AVOID USELESS COMPETITION • Religious Financiering Revolutionised by Success of Men-and-MNIions Movement and Co-opera­ tion is Result. The Interchurch World Movement of North America is an attempt by for­ ward-looking leaders of the various evangelical denominations of the Unit­ ed States and Canada to co-ordinate the resources in men, money and mate­ rial of Protestant America. Historically it is the logical out­ growth of a tendency of the national boards In each denomination to form working alliances among themselves, in which each board shall preserve its Identity and control Its own personnel and treasury.

A capitalist has met with the citi­ zens of the village with the proposi­ tion, upon a stated snm being raised, to build a plant here for the dry dis­ tillation of wood in the manufacture of a substitute for alcohol.

We are not bolding our mid-week services on Thursday, so as to keep that evening free for our people to go to the special meetings in the Nazarene church. For the same reason we will not have preaching service on next Sunday at night, but will hold the morning service and Sunday school at the usual times. We urge a faithful attendance at those two engagements, and so far as in us lies will do our level best to bring profitable messages to the pulpit and Bible class. OBITUARY.

The Western Newspaper Union, the great news gathering agency closely allied with the country ureas and knowing better than any other institution »n America the danger? which threaten it, recently made this stirring appeal to Hon.

"The country newspaper repre­ sents the heart of America. Not from the cosmopolitan crowds ot city streets, but from the green fields, blue skies and clean living of the open, comes that elusive, though real, something that has come to be known as ‘American Ideals.’ "Ab leader, teacher, counsellor and frien^, the country newspaper has broken trail for one hundred years tor the most thrilling example of empire building the worl^ has ever witnessed. "Throughout the world war the country newspaper was whole-heart­ edly with the government, regard­ less of its political faith. Inspiring Ps following of patriotic citizens to greater and greater efforts, and giv­ ing of its own slender resources to the cause. "Not in the fields of the country press did we find the serpent of dis­ loyalty. “Arthur Balfour, of England, re­ cently remarked to an American newspaper man: " 'Upon the rural press of Ameri­ ca rests the fate of civilization? “The country newspaper is, to be sure, a business enterprise, but we believe it more nearly approximates an unselfish public utility than any other American business. "And now the very existence of this most dependable of our isfiuences for good is threatened by profi­ teering in paper. A fictitious mar­ ket has been created by greedy man­ ufacturers, brokers and metropoli­ tan dailies which promises to make the publication of weekly newspa­ pers impossible. It has already mad? the business unprofitable. “When country newspapers are no longer possible, the country mer­ chants and village life, steady influ­ ences in our national being, will pass. A tendency toward centrali­ zation is already known to be a basic factor in our high cost of living and general unrest. "As co-workers with and whole­ salers to the country press of fifty­ seven years, we tender you this ap­ peal for relief from 13,000 loyal American cltirenr—business men up­ on whose continued business pros­ perity depends most largely the des­ tiny of our country.

Here tbe supreme artist has chiseled and etched and painted an outdoor gallery of mas­ terpieces unlike any other in the world. The Indians termed the place the Heart of the Sky Mountains and called it "The Vale of the Ahwanee," and themselves Ahwsneeches, or “Children of Light." The excelling features of the Yo­ semite are Its waterfalls and sheer, bold cliffs. Snow-waters from high mountains have founf a wonderful variety and beauty of courses down tbe mountain walls to the Merced river In the valley below. These peculiar peaks strikingly resemble huge domes and range In height all the way from 1,200 to 6.000 feet. The falls which descend their rugged sides range in height from 350 feet—Vernal falls, which is only 35 feet wide at the top— to beautiful Yosemite falls, which, In three leaps, plunges half a mile and is said to be the highest waterfall In the world with anything like the same volume cf water. .

"I?" said monsieur, giving me n look that aftked: "Is there anything I have not beautifully •explained?" "Yes—you; I don’t seem yet to see where you belong in this veritable hls­ tolre," returned Billy, looking about for nn ash tray, but driving at his point—“I don’t see What part you play In It at all? Granted that the dia­ monds belong to the Emperor William —now, then, what are you doing with them?" "I?" again be looked at me. "I am trying to find zem for ze Emperor Wil­ liam.” “All right. But what are you doing wkh them—in America?" Billy’s tone was severe. "That is what you have to answer." Billy looked the man straight in the eyes, defiantly, and I thought, for just the fraction of a second, that he quailed under the boyish honest stare. “Yes, sir,” continued Billy, as mon­ sieur did not Immediately reply, “there’s quite a gap between the em­ peror’s owning them and your having them. Very possibly I am lacking in imagination, but to be quite frank, I can’t see the connection." It was to me monsieur appealed. "Ah. mndame, what more can I say? I am at your mercy—" and be held out his manacled hands. I hardened under Billy’s look at me and replied coolly: "I think you’d bet­ ter tell us how you came by the dia­ monds. I can’? see the precise connec­ tion between the Emperor William and yourself." Monsieur appeared to choke back a number of emotions and then de­ claimed, “Madame must pardon me, He did it really magnificently—al­ Methodist Protestant Church. together the great man, the confidant Barryvilie Circuit Rev.

Regular meetings each Thurs­ —for monsieur, in his single word, had day night at hall over McDerby’s returned as good as he got and they store. Visiting brothers cordially now measured each other. Billy broke the silence and recalled A. E. Dull, N. G. me with: “Say—where’s that ash times. So once she have hear ze le­ gend of ze seven blood-red diamonds. Above all ozzer rings in ze world she I desire zoze diamonds and she have communicate her wish to dgr kaiser and he have' seen in her wish some way to his own for ze fazerland. “To *zis end he have arrange treaty wis Mexico which make Mexico a sis­ ter state of ze great German alliance he have in mind. To zis end, also, he have commissioned me—” The rest of what monsieur said just then was lost on me. for there had swooped on me a lightning stroke of understanding—the whole nefarious scheme of Germany and the emperor lay bare to my inner eye. Mexico—the Panama canal—these were the stra­ tegic points of a world conquest such as history had never witnessed. Ger­ many In possession of Mexico, with half a million troops massed on 6»r border—why, she could flippantly tread on the lion’s tall any day nnd go to war and say to us: “Help England— and lose Texas, Arizona, New Mexico and California." With half a million troops . in Mexico, Germany could spank us into almost anything I . And Mexico, with her almost un­ touched resources; with her hot-blood­ ed troops under German discipline for twenty years—for ten—for five! But I could stop it! For the lever that was to set the scheme In motion was thumb-tacked to the bottom of my sideboard drawer—the seven blood-red diamonds I Monsieur’s voice had reached a stop. My resolve was taken. “Never!" was the one impassioned word I uttered. Billy echoed it—“Never I" His thoughts had flown with mine and had seen the Impending calamity which we two, out of the world, could now pre­ vent. Then, drawing himself to his full height, he gave forth our ultima­ te'. to the nation at large: “You just go back and tell your Emperor Wil­ liam that he can never have Mexico or the Panama canal." CHAPTER XIII. Monsieur Appeals to Me. The effect of our words on monsieur was the last thing we could have fore­ seen. He hud been standing all this while. He sank heavily into his chair, buried his face in his hands—and wept! Billy raised disgusted eyes to the celling. Inviting It to come down with a noise and end the unpleaalng spectacle of a man crying tears on a rug. Then catching my commiserating eye, Billy communicated his Ideas on the subject with a little sneer of his lip and a little shrug of his shoulder. The next Instant, he had seized me by the arm and pulled me along the hall whispering: "While he’s on the weep we can talk." nnd he thrust me Inside the bedroom door, himself remaining on tbe sill with nn eye to the dining room.

And yet—It Is as plain De Bavenol—ze fazer of Claire whom you know—zat I Implore you to keep my confidence zat I give you now at ze peril of my life." He paused, and we both felt con­ strained to assure him we would keep his confidence, and he proceeded. "I have undertook zls secret mission for which ze emperor have select me from all his friends—as he have select me, I may call myself his friend—and I have dedicate myself to It wis all my ‘Billy Dear, Do Listen to Reason.'* Monsieur cont’nned to weep—pos­ sibly he thought w«$l left him out of consideration for his emotion. “Say—this is the very deuce of a : hole,” Billy began in a rapid whisper, j “the very devil of a hole. What we must do Is to go to Washington to- my advice," Billy said glumly, stuffing bls hands In his pockets. “BUt if you’ll take my advice, you’ll not waste time over anything—l(’s too serious." "Billy, dear, do listen to reason for half a second. What ore we going to ’-*•3 *ne president? We haven’t got the whole story even yet out of him"— I pointed in the direction of the dining room—"and there mustn’t be any gap in it. We’ve gut to see Mrs. Delarlo and get her evidence—we’ve got to see Claire—” “He’ll make her say anything." “You and I can break her down un­ der cross-examination. You see, we haven't a thing but his word—" “And the diamonds.” Billy Inter­ rupted. ’Tm taking your word for those—you didn’t see fit to show ’em to me.” His tone was a trifle sarcastic, Indi­ cating thnt there might still be some legitimate doubt as to the existence of the stones In question. In spite of all the Adventure over them; but I ignored it and went ont “He made one slip— I saw It at the time, and now I can’t remember what it was. It went slap out of my head nnd It whs important— something about . . . No. I can’t re­ member. It was a sort of key to some­ thing else—’’ “Can’t you think?" urged Billy. "Every little detail's important now. And lordy-lord—what a story, and my scoop!” The reporter was romping around in Billy's Inside, determined'to push the story to a finish; while romping around In my insides was my natural caution. Why should we do anything to warn the Emperor William?, He might deny everything and say he never even heard of the diamonds! Yes. one false step would make Billy and me the laughing-stock of diplo­ matic circles throughout the world. We must get all our proof before we divulged the secret on which the fate of our nation depended. The net result of our hurried col­ loquy was that we returned to the din­ ing room and silently relieved the still­ sorrowing monsieur of his handcuffs. Which done, Billy presented him with leave of absence from our society in the words: • “Monsieur, you are free to go,” and added a courtly bow. I bowed also. Thus we signified with all the manners we possessed that the interview, pleasing as it had been, was at an end. Our action—simple enough to us and tn line with the plan we’d just mapped out for getting at the truth—left mon­ sieur as dazed as anything we’d done; inexplicably, we had abruptly set him adrift, without threats or explanations nnd without—the diamonds. I smiled and said, quite as though he’d been drinking tea with me: ’Til say good night to you, monsieur.” With that, I held out my hand. Monsieur did not rise. He did not take my offered hand. He stared—a really frightened, childish stare, first at me. then at Billy. He had been dis­ missed—every second he longer re­ mained marked him a trespasser. Yet ne rema'ned, glued to his chair and dumb. Speech seemed to have desert­ ed him. Twice he essayed It, but the words stuck In his throat and he looked to us to help him ouL The clock chimed the four-quarters to nine and then the hour. Monsieur spoke. “I have place myself in your posi­ tion as American and I appreciate your feeling," he began, and he went on to tell us as a man he grieved for us; how as a would-be friend he grieved for us; how as the emperor’s messenger be grieved for us; and how I—In the innocent carrying off of a slipper from the customs house—one of a pair in which his daughter had at his command, secreted a box of dia­ monds belonging to the emperor—had brought myself within the circle of Im­ placable, all-seeing, all-avenging >and never-ending wrath, whether the dia­ monds were lost, strayed, stolen from me, or drowned tn the sea; wrath that would follow me and my name for­ ever, world without end. amen. “All right, let It,” I replied curtly. “But would it not be better to con­ sider?" urged monsieur. “Ze wrass of ze emperor is terrible. Consider, madame, I beg you to consider. Zoze diamonds zat you have found in zat slipper you have ze misfortune t carry Off. Consider to give zem back." “They were not in the slipper I car­ ried off." Monsieur positively jumped. “Zey were not In zat slipper?" “No—on my word of honor as a gen­ tlewoman. monsieur, I tell you those diamonds were not in tbe slipper I car­ ried off." “Mon Dleu i" he said under his breath. “Madame Delarlo must have zem—in spite of her denial—in spite of zat I search ze entire house—and her­ self—and find also ze slipper in her wardrobe as she would not leave it if she find zoze diamonds." “But she may not have found them —they may have fallen out and COt Offlee in the Nashville club block.

Long ago. when the whalers set sail from the little port, Phoebe’s grand­ mother made most wonderful pies. Phoebe makes them just as delectable —and by the same rtrlpe. Not the most noted man of science can sug­ gest one Improvement in the pies the old New England housewives con­ cocted. Phoebe didn’t try. and there­ in lay her success. Phoebe Hurlburt occupied a place In the sun not too close to fort,v at the time her romance began. Cousin Jane was close behind. Jtyie hail all along Intended it to be her-own romance; but, somehow. In the last act the cues got twisted and John Bellayre walked Into the Hurlhurt kitchen where Phoebe. In an Immaculate calico house­ dress. was in the act of removing from the oven two crispy, fragrant apple pies. Instead of Into the orchard where Jane had staged herself In an act worthy of. Belaseo himself. John stay­ ed In the kitchen to have ? sample, served with clotted cream, and stayed so long that finally Jane, all unassist­ ed. climbed down from the tree in which she was precariously seated. It hnd been along about Christmas time when Jane met John Bellayre. He had been the guest of honor-at a so-called Sunday morning breakfast party. As a matter of fact both ’•morning" and “breakfast" were mis­ nomers. for the piesxs assembled nt one o'clock, and what they had to eat was a rather elaborate.luncheon. Jane hnd written her country cousin al! about It and had kept her Informed of the progress of the friendship. Jane liked to be called “clever," and It was with that adjective that the other women present at the breakfast described her manipulation of John Bellayre. But to do Jane justice she was un attractive woman, and Bel­ la.vre didn’t need much managing to drift Into a close friendship. Phoebe usually listened In on the conversations, now and then surprising everybody by putting In a brightly in­ telligent comment In-exactly the right place. She presided over the house— cool, competent. Immaculate. But to all Invitations to visit In the city she returned n polite lint final declination. Rhe didn't like cities. It was here in the charming old New England village thnt June had planned that the crowning event of her life should take plrtce. John Bellayre was dramatic critic for one of the city dai­ lies. He knew many desirable people and he was himself an extremely lik­ able man. Jane calculated that her oft-repeated statement that she would not give up her freedom before she reached the age of thirty-five would help, rather than hinder. Mon pre­ ferred to have some obstacles to over­ her crocheting. He would alt there lazily by rhe hour, hardly speaking at all. Jane usually spent those hours In rest. - On - the - -lest evening of- -her guests*stay some restless impulse, foreign -to her placid nature, drove Phoebe to the kitchen. She explained to her mother that it promised to tie hot tomorrow, and so she guessed she would do some baking before she went, to bed. She had heard Jane's words to John Bel­ layre as her cousin went upstairs di­ rectly after the early supper. “I have some notes to write, John; I will meet you in the orchard nt half-past seven.” Then, ''at seven, she had seen her cousin steal out of the side door ar­ rayed In a pale mauve gown, one Phoebe had never seen before and which struck her- as almost indecent In ita daring simplicity. John Bellayre caught a whiff of the fragrant odor of steaming apple pie as he started down the path toward the orchard. Without ,fn the least an­ alyzing his own motives, he retraced his steps, opened the kitchen door and walked in. If it Is true that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. It is equally true that every woman is at heart a born ’ flirt—even the most placid. Anyway, when Jane returned to the house, after maintaining to no purpose her precarious position In ths apple tree, when it hnd grown too dark for the simple lines of her mauve gown to show to their best advantage against the green of the tree, she found John Bellayre and Cousin Phoelie seated side by aide on the kitchen steps, planning for the future—together! When a mutual friend asked Jans rather frankly, some time later, what there was about that country couslg of here to interest such a brilliant crib 1c as John. Bellayre, Jane answered, rather sarcastically, we must admit: “Just pie.” Magellan's Famous Voyage.

He navigated the ocean for three months and twenty du ya without finding a single 'stand During the voyage the weather was so fair con­ tinually that he gave the ocean the name of Pacific.

Wearily he gaced across the desolate laud of destruction. His bent shoulders drooped beneath the blue smock. “Sometimes it Just seems Impossible, Marthe.” He turned to the woman In the doorway. “You can’t grow gar­ den In these wet shell-holes. Some of us tried to. turn more ground today, but every time we swung a pick, up came a skull or a piece of a shoe, or something. It doesn’t seem right." Marthe’s knotted fingers twisted at her apron. “No; but It’s all we have. Jan. We can’t waste nil West Flan­ ders. and—well, after all, it's home.” back to the same place, but It isn’t home any more.

The dead cannot live again, and we live on a land of denth." He kicked off his wooden sa­ bots and followed his wife through the doorway Into the one room that served for parlor, bedroom and kitchen. Martlie bent over the sheet-iron stove and stirred the soup in a battered ket­ tle. “I scoured up that empty shell yon found yesterday. It will do for a coffee-pot. Try to get another. To use the same one for everything is hard." Slip sighed. ”1 do wish we hnd Just a few of the old kitchen things. But I suppose some German woman Is using my copper kettles and s|n»ons now.” Marthe wielded the home-made wooden ladle with a vicious splash. Jan laughed bitterly, as he settled down by the table. “Judging by what they took from Belgium. I picture Ger­ many ns a land paved with copper ket­ tles, carpeted with mattresses and fes­ tooned with brass door-knobs. Oh, what’s the use. Marthe? What’s the use of trying to live like this? An old abri for a house, because there’s noth­ ing with which to build. We make our coffee in the shell of a spent ohus. Our furniture, everything is makeshift. Life’s nothing but a makeshift. “Why do we cling to it? And the chil­ dren thnt people are trying to raise out here! They see only desolation; their toys are broken guns and rusty bayonets.

Slowly the night mW crepi over No Mun’s Land and shrouded the stark, gray trees. One by one shapes began to rise and wander over the pit­ ted ground. They gathered into groups and the mnraiur of their voices was like wind across the fields. Said one: “I thought it hard to die out here, but when I see these people working, straining to make their homes. I think it must be harder still to live." “My family has returned,” another spoke. “I lived here once. It seems so long ago. But when I came hack here to fight, my house was all de­ stroyed. my people gone. And then I fell there. In my own front yard— that shell-hole. see it. where the pop­ ples grow?

In far-nway flays kings have fought over dwarfs, and a court that possessed one was cbmjijlered very for­ tunate and ahngerlu*r stylish. Wealthy folk. even, competed with monarchs in the purcliuse of dwarfs as a sort of ball-mark of aristocracy. A race of tiny people in Equatorial Africa, the Akkns. were much prised by the early Pharaoh*. The Romans tried to sup­ ply the demand by artificial dwarfing, and had separate words to distinguish the natural fron> the unnatural dwarf.

This contest clos­ ed last Sunday. . Meanwhile word was given to the church that Rev. Praetorius of Cleve­ land, Ohio, ono of the regional di­ rectors in the Forward Movement, would be here March 20 to speak in the Interests of that work: feeling that this was a rare opportuni­ ty for the church as a whole to hear Rev.

We unhesitatingly commend tho scorching address given to men Sunday afternoon last in the Naza­ rene church, and hope a meeting of this kind will be repeated next Sun­ day. The fearless utterances of Evangelist Cooper and his manly yet delicate handling of his subject were all that could bo desired. It was delightful to note the rapt attention of the man. We felt sorry that all the manhood of our town was not present. Let no one miss another meeting, if such Is to be held. Ev­ ery thoughtful Christian muftt cry, as Moses did when Israel's indifference wrung from his heart the words, "O. that they were wise, that they under­ stood this, that they would consider their latter end!"

THE WHITE HOUSE, HE home of the president of the ! T United States, generally known as the White House, first became known a* 8UC1J when It was painted white to cover the marks of fire after being partially burned by the British in 1814. The* foundation of this worhl-fumous structure was put down In October, 1792. It was the first building erected in Washington. The site was picked by President George Washington, who also laid the corner stone. The building was first occupied by President John Adams, during the summer of 1800. It Is two stories and basement, and contain* 31 rooms. It is surrounded by a spacious lawn and gardens, which are Inclosed by a huge Iron fence. Whether viewed through the heavy foliage of the giant trees or across winter’s mantle of snow, it always looks restful and dignified. The White House naturally has been tiie scene of many tragedies and come­ dies, much joy, and also has had Its share of anxiety and grief. It holds a peculiar Interest for the people of all nations, those of the United States in particular. It Is a point of pil- , grlmage for thousands and thousands ' ot people annually, who come to' ad­ mire its decorations and paintings, study the relics of past occupants and. If opportunity offers, grasp the hand of the first citizen of the land. To a greater degree perhaps than any ocher building in the world, people of all ages and ranks have mingled under Its roof.

In so doing it warrants the distinction of being the power plant best suited tor the farm. It affords families isolated from city conveniences all the advantages of the central power station, with none of its disadvantages—supplies electric cur­ rent for operating motors, vacuum cleaners, electric washing machines, elec­ tric irons, etc. The Litscher Lite plant also supplies belt-drive power: it oper­ ates such farm machines as patent milkers, stock clippers, pumps, mills, etc. Moreover, it does all this work on the minimum amount of kerosene fuel Operates All Manner of Motor and Belt-Drive Machinery The Litscher Lite plant repre­ sents the farthest develop­ ment in the field of farm lighting equipment It goes a step beyond all other equip­ ment which attempts to imi­ tate its service. If supplies power for every sort of work the farmer has to do. It pro­ vides running water for the house and bam. It cuts the fire hazard by eliminating dangerous oil lamps and by supplying a means of extin- uishing fire. It increases le value of property by en­ Shancing its beauty as well as adding to convenience The Litscher Lite plant is the result of years of experience and has been tested out on farms throughout the United States. It is a proven success according to the testimony of farmers who have long en­ joyed its multiple assistance. The Litscher Lite plant requires only water, lubricating The Litecher Lite plant will operate for several hours, charging its batteries and supplying light and power for all purposes at the cost of a little kerosene. The Litscher Lite plant is self­ cranking and starts with a push or a button. It is the preference of those whose judgment is influenced by economy of operation, great­ er utility and simplicity of construction. oil and kerosene to keep it running. It is so simply con­ structed that its operation is easily understood. It re­ quires such little space that it can be installed anywhere without being in the way. It Stes with little noise or tion—a fact which per­ mits its installation even in the house. The factor of economy alone points out another Litscher Lite advantage. A Good Investment for Farm Owner, Dealer and Stockholder OWN STOCK NOW IN THE LITSCHER LITE CORPORATION The Litscher Lite Corporation has enjoyed a remarkable growth of business during the last year, due to the fact that the public has been quick to recognize the superiority of the Litecher Lite plant Farm lighting dealers in all sections of the country are becoming Litecher Lite dealers and export shipments have been made all over the world, In fact, orders are far in advance of production. Prospects are so bright that it becomes imperative for the Litscher Lite Corporation to increase its manufacturing facilities and to obtain more working capi­ tal. The Litscher Lite Corporation believes that production many times in excess of their present day record will be needed to reap the benefit of the present day preference for Litscher Lite plants. To offset the possibility of some other manufacturer usurping this market we are desirous of instantly rectifying the present condition of under­ production. The Litscher Lite Corporation, therefore, makesits first public offering of stock to careful investors who are thoroughly familiar with the farm lighting plant market or have confidence in the possibility of this new ana growing industry. In connection with this it may be said that the .value __ ___of‘ farm ‘____________ products for ‘ the year ____ "1" 1919 was oyer twenty-one billion dollars and that the farmer, more than any other class of citizens in the United States, has the money and the desire to buy. We have the farm lighting and power plant which offers the best investment to the user; we have the distribution: we need more cap’tal to enable us to multiply production. We believe that the man who will use the Litscher Lite plant should have the opportunity to benefit from its manufacture and sale.

One day as I was going away. • I saw two children busy at play; They had a wagon along the road j On which there was a tiny load. As I drew nearer to the place. They turned and looked me in the face And smiled, with all a child’s delight. Like, when the moon shines on a summer's night. As I was about to say good-day. They turned and looked the other way; Then one smiled and turned around. ■ And in a minute she gave a bound.'

Women Made Young -Now Let the Country Keep Faith With Him” LEONARD WOOD This is Wood’s sentiment toward the American Farmer, as ex­ pressed in his Platform and speeches; “If the farmers had not kept faith as they did we would have lost the war, we would have been unable to feed our Allies and ourselves. They sent their sons to war, and in spite of the shortage of labor they raised the biggest crop in history. “We want to maintain our rural population because it is the basis of our most stable citizenship. To do this, we must make life on the farms more attractive. The farmer must have good roads—he pays his full share of taxes. His interests must not be permitted to suffer so that other interests may profit more. If there is anything mors important in thia country than Agriculture, J do not know it. "We must h»ve a Department of Agriculture conducted for the Farming interest* by men who really know farming from the furrow to the crop. “We must have national economy at Washington, and a budget system. “We must have federal suppression of jail dishonest busi­ ness, no matter how large, no matter how smalL “We must have more producing, leas spending, a saner cost of living. “We must have a longer term of years to pay the war debt. "We want fewer tenant farm*, more owned farms.'

Parrott PROPRIETOR I �’■women > ie at the Nazarene church Sunday afternoon. From the first of his discourse, the’ speaker successfully effaced himself j from the minds of his hearers by plunging atrocity into the seriou> | theme cf the hour, the keynote o! । which was. “The Responsibilities of f’ure Womanhood." He began by. reminding his hear ers of bow much they, themselves, owed their present happiness ant’ purity to the Influences of the fami­ ly altar in the homes ot their child­ hood. strengthened by the guiding hi hand of a sainted mother in Chris­ tian training. He pleaded that the? give the children of Nashville a like home protection to enable our young people to withstand the wiles of sin and temptation so surely awaiting them in life. Briefly speaking or the dangers lurking for the pure and Innocent, he gave mothers definite warnings and practical aid in com­ batting these evils surrounding young folks of today until every mother present could but feel the weight of responsibility placed upon her by God in motherhood. He said, in part, a mother may be to blame if her daughter goes wrong. If a mother of Nashville, or else­ where, ignores possible social evils for her daughter, shirks giving nec­ essary instructions or neglects to pray for her; in the measure she falls short of her duties of mother­ hood 1s she held by God responsible for the safety of the precious jewel instructed to her by Him. The service closed, the attendance getting from it a realization of the dangers surrounding our young; their need of Christ; and a keener sense of responsibility resting upon every. Christian woman of the community for the safety and welfare ot its children. Without doubt every wo­ man present carried away a resolu­ tion for the future to do her-part to make it easier for the young people of Nashville to do right and harder for them to do wrong. ■ Mother, if you were not present, ask some one who was there to tell you of the service that your child may thereby gain in the aid given inCbristfan training. the county.—Advt.

Baptism and reception of member s at 10 a. m. An elaborate musical program is being prepared for this hour. Sunday school at 11.15 a. m., and the cantatta, “New Life", will be presented by the members of the school at 4 p. m. This is a delight­ ful selection, and will warrant a good hearing. This exercise is given at this hour, and the evening services are taken up, that all may attend the program given by the Evangelical Sunday school at 7 p. m. Eighty pocket testaments were given away at the Sunday school ses­ sion; there are more to be present­ ed next Sunday. "Come and see." The gift of these expensive little books was made possible by 20 men who furnished the money. Carl Lentz was the captain behind the movement. A man excused his absence from prayer meeting last week by saying: "I let my wife split her own wood that day, so I didn’t feel like pray­ ing.” Men don’t let your faults keep you away from the mid-week services. Join your wife and plead your own pardon. Bishop Theodore S. Henderson states; "More people will present themselves at the altars of the church for membership on Easter Sundaj* than on any previous day in the his­ tory of the Christian church." The evangelistic campaign is not to close with Easter. « The anuual egg gathering will be observed In the Sunday school by everyone bringing an egg. This healthful food will be sent to the charity wards, of Wesley hospital, Chicago, a Methodist ' institution which cares for more than 50,000 charily cases every year. Every organization of the church is placed under the direction of the community co-operative committee for the relief of stricken storm suf­ ferers. ASSYRIA CLUB MEETS.

CYCLONE SWKKFB MAPLE GKOVK (continued from page 1.) er Barry county man, Scott Cook, was killed In Yankee Springs, where the.house of John Schantz wo* des­ troyed by the storm. Any detailed description of the damage done by the .terrible storm an it tor© through the district south of Nashville would necessarily he very incomplete. An entire news­ paper would be needed. Fences are gone, vast stretches of timber are ruined, orchards are uprooted and general ruin follows the path of the storm. Following the trail through is the only way one might gain a correct Idea of the Immense damage. Smashed autombbllea, broken sew­ ing machines, splintered pianos, or­ gans and phonographs, pigs limping around on three legs, a dead horse here, a pile of riddled bedding there, fragments of wearing apparel on bushes, trees and fences, household goods in a complete state of wreck, photographs and other household treasurer (scattered through woods and fields, dead Cuttie here and there, wire fences torn away and strewn across fields, boards, shingles, brok­ en sections ot plaster, sometimes with the wall paper still adhering to it. these are but a few of the sickening sights to be seen. A horse at the Belson place was struck in the side by a flying timber and so badly cut that the entrails protruded. The poor animal was killed to relieve its sufferings. Entire fields are cover­ ed with wreckage, so that it will take many days work to gather it up be­ fore they can be tilled. Such sights can be numbered by the score. E. W. Penfold had 28 acres of splendid timber, with one of the best sugar bushes in the township. Less than, four acres of timber remains standing, and the fallen timber is a tangled mass of splintered and brok­ en trees. Most of it can be cut for wood if help can be secured, and a little saw timber, may be saved. Carl Moon also had a fine piece of timber ruined in the same way. feet above the ground and' carried into a field many rods away. Another twister which travelled through Rutland township at about the same hour destroyed a big barn for Lewis Edger, the Henry Shipman farm home, and the Methodist church. Mr. and Mrs. Shipman were badly hurt, but there were no fatal­ ities. Leaser damage was done at score* of places besides those enumerated. Clinton Barnes lost the (chimneys off his house, Dennis Ward’s a wind­ mill, Clarke Wells the roof off hl* feed mill, and lots of others. The total list of losers would be hard to get. Enormous damage was done at St. Johns, in Cinton county, many build­ ings being partially or completelywrecked. A few people were injur­ ed. but there were no fatalities. Nashville Shows Her Colors. Expressing her sympathy in the most practical way. Nashville comes to the aid of the cyclone sufferers in the devastated district south of us. The next day after the cyclone, cir­ culars called the citizens of the vil­ lage to attend a mass meeting at the Auditorium that evening. A goodly number of citizens responded to the call and promptly after being called to order practical business commenc­ ed. A committee consisting of three Maple Grove men, Fred J. Mayo, Harry Mason and Will .Guy, was ap­ pointed to act with the people of the devastated district in taking steps to relieve the distressed. A solicit­ ing committee was appointed, com­ prised of Geo. C. Deane, L. E. Pratt and W. A. Quick. A women's com­ mittee, consisting of Mrs. Von W. Purniss. Mrs. Colin T. Munro anl Mrs. Chris Marshall was appointed to work with the Red Cross in en­ listing th4 women of the town in practical work. Then the soliciting committee got busy. Subscription papers were pre­ pared and those present were invit­ ed to come to the desk and designate their subscriptions. When all had signed, the lists were totalled and found to amount to >791.00. That was too near even money and an ap­ peal was made to make It eight hundred. That mark was reached and passed with a rush and somebody suggested that it ought to be made a thousand, and five minutes more the clerks announced >1001.00 and the meeting adjourned. Tuesday morning the committee was out and at It. and by night the total had climbed to well over the fifteen hun­ dred mark. The latest count shows the total cash subscribed to be >1603.50. with still a few dollars more in sight. A full list of con­ tributors will be published next week. In the meantime the subscriptions may be handed in to Geo. C. Deane. L. E. Pratt or W. A. Quick. That amount won’t rebuild many­ wrecked homes and barns, but it will help to relieve immediate dis­ tress and to help the unfortunate to get on their feet and start over again, and it surely shows our good neighbors to the south that our sym­ pathy is real. Tuesday night the people of Maple Grove townshir held a mass meeting at the Grange hall at Maple Grove center, and the meeting was well at­ tended. Soliciting committees were appointed, with assistants in each school district, and work is well un­ der way toward making a thorough canvass of the township for finan­ cial aid. Contributions of work, building material, bedding, clothing, furniture, provisions, etc.,'will also be gladly accepted. Before the Ma­ ple Grove meeting closed, the hand­ some sum of >521.00 in cash had been subscribed, and many had pledg­ ed assistance of work. Several Nashville people attended the meet­ ing and it was certainly worth the trip out there to see the very re;! sympathy shown and the interest that Is being taken by the people of the township in coming to the material assistance of their unfortunate neighbors.

Frank Caley. There must have been more than one of the twisters turned loose .in Michigan Sunday afternoon, for sim­ ilar storms struck the vicinity of Marshall and Springport, tearing down building and trees. The storm was accompanied by immense quan­ tities of rain, which is described by Dale Darrow, who pulled Into a Springport garage to escape it. as a "deluge". He says there was more than a foot of water rushing through Springport’s main street. At about the same hour a severe windstorm visited Grand Rapids, where the damage was not very heavy, and this storm travelled east to Ionia, where the armory, the Bap. tist church and other buildings were partially wrecked. The storm which visited this vi­ cinity evidently went east of Ver­ montville, thence northeast through Mulliken and through a territory east of Portland. .Of this storm, the Portland Review has the following freport: A cyclone swept over the terri­ tory south and east of Portland at 5:00 o’clock Sunday afternoon, tear­ ing down buildings and sweeping everything before it. Mrs. Warren Hixson was badly Injured and it was believed yesterday morning that a bone In her leg had been broken. The damage was most severe at the Hixson place, which is located a mile north of the Abbey school house in Dauby. The house, two barns, hen house and silo were torn to pieces. Two automobiles In a ished were smashed so badly they are useless. Many trees were broken down and those left standing ate filled with quilts and other debris from the wrecked Hixson home. The cyclone seems to h%ve origi­ nated a little south and east of the village of Mulliken, taking a north­ easterly course to Grand river, op­ posite the Chas. Fryer farm. As the wind, struck the*river great sheets of water were thrown as high as the treetops on the shore. The noise re­ sembled the rumbling of a heavy train ot cars. Those at the Pryer farm thought the storm was heading straight for them and rushed to the cellar. At the river the wind veered to the east. By T. T.

Feighner & Barker 12 Oliver No. 11 Sulky Ifs dollars to doughnuts— C For years past the James Oliver No. 11 sulky has received the approval of farmers as is evidenced .by the number that have been sold. It is not unusual to find several No. 11 sulkies in use on the same farm. \ The outstanding feature df the No. 11 sulky is its ability to do good work in all soils. The driver can do better work than with the best walking plow. It is the ideal sulky for plowing around the field, and in lands, with either a square out, or in turn, eliminating back ridges and dead farrows. Corners can be turned without lifting the bottom from the ground and the plowing depth will remain constant. Remarkably light draft is accomplished by eliminating practically all furrow bottom and farrow wall friction. These are the more prominent of the features that have made the Oliver No. 11 sulky a popular leader wherever it has been introduced. For plowing conditions where a-sulky is de­ sired, nothing will equal the Oliver No. 11. W. B. BERA & SONS Hardware Imp �day and had papers made out, adopt­ ing the girl.

But plowing is only the beginning of the Cletrac’s wide range of usefulness. In plowing, it is constantly demonstrating its ability to pull two 14-inch bottoms at three to three and a half miles per hour, in medium soil conditions, and turning as fine a furrow as you ever saw. Eight to ten acres a day is not at all unusual. ' , The Cletrac Tank-Type Tractor not only plows but it does the other work necessary in preparing the seed bed. And it does the work without spoiling the good work done by the implement that has gone before. After you have seen its really remarkable performances under the many different and difficult conditions which it is capable of mastering, you will completely revise your ideas of what a scientifically designed tractor can actually accom­ plish. After the ground is broken, the Cletrac goes over it with the disc and the harrow; then goes over it with the seeder. The Cletrac rides on top of the seed bed; it does not sink into It and it does not pack the soil. The Cletrac goee over soft ground because it travels on its own endless tracks which it picks up and lays down, as It goes ataxg, like the great "tanks” which accomplished Br»t at th, wk with r,l,ur«a io th, thllM,.

Wotring PRIM'i^A MATION BY THE GOVER­ NOR. School Week. Unusual economic conditions have affected all lines of business and all professions. There is today in Mich­ igan, and this condition is common to all the states of the unloh, an alarm­ ing shortage of teachers and the work of our schools in consequently great­ ly hampered. The need of efficient teaching is fundamental and any­ thing that interferes with the proper . work of the teacher is calculated to do the commonwealth a Teal injury. What can be done to remedy present conditions? An educational cam­ paign. with a special effort to enlist the interest and sympathy of the best of our young people in the cause of education, ought to be helpful, and the suggestion tnat a particular week be definitely set apart as school week seems to me to be a most valuable one. Therefore. I, Albert E. Sleeper. Governor of the state of Michigan. • do issue this my proclamation and designate the week beginning April 11, 1920, as school week; and I ur­ gently request the press, the pulpit, all clubs, and other social and educa­ tional organizations, to give thought­ ful and earnest consideration to the problem of the supply of teachers, and to set aside some portion of that week for 'the discussion of this and other school problem.

But 80% of the ministers receive less income than government economists figure as a minimum for the support of an average family. When hospitals need money they enlist the support of the ministers—and receive it But when sickness visits the minster or the members of his family they must be treated in a charity ward. His pay is less than a day laborer’s. 8 out of every 10 ministers receive less than $20 a week—about half the pay of a mechanic. We Pay Him Half the^ Wages of a Mechanic Norman C. Hagerman, deceased.

Another advantage of this character is that It exempts from a great deal of interference and obstructive annoy­ ance which an Irresolute man may be almost sure to encounter. Weak­ ness In every form tempts arrogance, and a man may be allowed to wish for a kind of character-with which stupid­ ity and Impertinence may not make so free.

CHAPTER XVI. A New VIiitor. A pretty kettle of fish 1 J bad made up my mind to lay the case before the president, but then—as Billy saidruin a young girl’s life! If I told anything I'd have to tell alt * George rang. He' was apologetic, but had the offish air of having re­ ceived compensation for my-scoldln© “Why, that genlem’u downstairs, he says—soon as I tell him you ain’t home—he says ain’t you In, or Is you out—" "I told you positively that I was not at home.’’ “Well, I tole Mm that—that’s why he ask me is .you not at home or Is you out? An’ he says fer me to go up again with this'here—” and he thrust a sealed envelope into my hand through the crack of the. door, which was still on the chnln-bolt. Mechanically—as people will do those things without thinking of the possible consequences—I tore open the flap and read: “Mademoiselle de Ravenol has dis­ appeared.” That was all—no signature or any­ thing—end the paper looked like a leaf torn from a notebook and hastily scribbled in pencil. I made an exclamation and was in the very act of telling George to bring the man up at once, when the queerest feeling came over me—intu­ it fon, warning, whatever you choose to name it—a feeling of danger, and that this was what the detectives call a plant for me. It was George who recalled me to my senses by asking, “Shall I fetch him up?" “No—certainly not. You’ve already told him I’m not at home.” “But he says—if you’s out I'm to fetch back the letter to him, an’ whep I don’t fetch it back he asks me, ain’t you in, an’ if you ain’t tn where’s the letter?” True—and aptly argued 1 “Why didn't you tell me that In the first place?" I demanded, wondering at my own stupidity that J hadn’t seen it myself tn the first place. “I ain’t think of it,” said George sullenly. “Oh, well—It doesn’t matter any­ way," I soothed. “Just tell him again Pm not at home, and if he says any­ thing more repeat it—and keep on re­ peating it till he goes, for I won’t see him. But, George"—this I said stern­ ly—“if you bring that man up—after what I’ve said to • you—you needn’t say good morning to me next Sunday." George understood the allusion—I always glye him a quarter on Sunday morning when he brings the paper up. He grinned and departed. “Now, what new dodge is this?" I cogitated, carrying the paper to my study and examining It in the light. The writing was distinctly foreign— French or German tn the “r’s." Tho “mademoiselle" also suggested a for­ eigner. The bell rang. I sat down. The bell rang again. I put my feet on a has­ sock, turned up my nose slightly, smiled and sat still. The door was pounded—not furiously, but with evi­ dent determination—and the bell rang C. H. Raymond, Sec’y. At this I thought Td better show a Physician and surgeon.

The operation is not expensive and you will relieve the engine bearings of much unnecessary abuse. A little oil on the clutch thrust bearing may facilitate gear shifting.

Where Battery Care Stops and Tink­ ering Begins. One of the bits of advice that strike the eye of every man who runs through numerous articles on motor I care, or who studies an Instruction iboofc is this—"Don't tinker". Heav­ ily all of them leave the reader In ■doubt as to Just where proper care leaves off and tinkering begins. Webster says that the tinkerer is "one skilled In petty mechanical work,” but that doesn’t exactly fit the present meaning. The trouble with most habitus! tlnkerers is that they aren’t skilled at all. A man may be a lawyer or a doctor or a real estate agent, but if he is a natural mechanic and knows why he grinds his valves and how to do It, and exactly how the pieces go to­ gether, he can surely grind valves without being accused ot tinkering. So a thing that would be tinkering for one man is proper care for anoth- It is just about the same with bat­ teries. but there are fewer car own­ ers who are at home id the special field of battery care than In those parts that concern only mechanical knowledge. So. for practically ail owners the line between battery care and batytery tinkering is quite sharply drawn. (The only safe rule is to put water In regularly to keep the solution at the proper level, and to keep connections tight, but aside from that to let the battery entirely alone. Put a wrench on the front axle rint rl!n« occasionally. You may Incidentally soldier who rod? into town was car­ ried about on people’s shoulders till the poor fellow was worn out.

This three-passenger mode! makes the most of these desirable feature/, without sacrificing one whit of the modish appearance that belongs to the type. The body is distinctly a Buick creation, broadening out to accommo­ date a wide, deep seat for three, then curving in nt the back to form a trim rear deck with a weather-proof carrying space for luggage. The dimensions ot the driving compartment Insure easy entrance or exit from either side, with the control and brake levers well forward but within easy reach. The French pleated upholstery is built for long wear and comfort. The illuminated Buick Instrument board contains the lighting and ignition switches, ammeter, speedometer, oil pressure guage and dash choker for cold weather starting, all conveniently plac­ ed in plain view. Inclined windshield, handsome improved top of high grade material, side curtains that swing open with the doors, large gasoline tank and ex­ tra demountable rim complete the equipment of this smart, business­ like car. . The Buick Model K-Six-44 BUICK FIVE-PASSENGER TOURING CAR E BUICK Model K-Six-45 is a very capable open car for five persons, designed to cover the multi­ tude of uses to which such a car is put It differs T from the big seven-passenger model ohly in tonneau and chassis length, possessing the same degree of ruggedness, easy-flowing power and mechanical excellence. There is far more comfort in the driving compartment than is usual­ ly found in cars of this Jype. The floor space is uncluttered and the seat is of great depth. The tonneau is even more liberally proportioned. The seat Is full three-passenger capacity, set at a comfortable angle. The sides are up­ holstered clear to the doors with the same French pleated leather used on the cushions and seat backs. ‘ Each ot the four doors is equipped with a side pocket for storing small parcels. The instrument board is illuminated by a dash lamp. Top and side curtains are made ot high grade fabric, the curtains swinging open with the doors. Behind the front seat is a very convenient pocket for storing the side burtains when not in use.

One Ton Truck has been demon­ strating Its unparalleled service and economy, both'in the city and country. It -has all the qualifications of reliability^and all the utility in service of the regular Ford car, plus added weight <nd strength in the chassis and its splendid aluminum bronze worm drive. The same famous power plant, the marvelous Ford Model T Motor that Is driving more than 8,500,000 Ford ears every day. Is the power plant of these One Ton Trucks. This assures simplicity and ease tn control, with economy in fuel consumption and the minimum ot expense in up-keep THE FORDSON TRACTOR IS ECONOMICAL—both to buy and to op­ erate—two and a quarter gallons of kerosene per acre plowed is a fair average. THE FORDSON TRACTOR IS POWERFUL—will pull 14-Inch plows In the stiffest soil or .drive a threshing machine — maintains 1800 pounds drawbar pull at plowing speed—2500 pounds on low gear. Twenty to twenty-two horsepower is available at the belt pulley. The truck chassis is made light In weight without sacrificing strength through the use of the celebrated Vanadium steel, The < omplete chassis weighs but 1450 lbs., and as the result of this light weight, the maximum ratio of power is delivered to the rear wheels. At the same time, the fuel and tire expenses are reduced, and the ease of con­ trol through the steering gear Is insured. THE FORDSON TRACTOR IS DURABLE—simple, rugged, accessible tn design with few parts. The toughest steels whteh science can pro­ duce are used to give strength and durability Instead of depending on heavy masses of metal. AU moving parts are enclosed and lu­ bricated—air Is washed clean to protect the motor. Extra large, lined emergency brakes act on both rear wheels and are controlled by a hand lever. This dual brake system Increases the factor of safety .by placing the truck under the immediate control of the driver, and makes It possible to hold the car on an Incline even though heavily loaded. Will Solve Your “Help” Problem The truck has a wheel base of 124 Inches with tread of 56 inches. It can be turned in a 4 6-foot circle, a feature not to be lost sight ot in the selection of a commercial vehicle. The Fordson is a valuable machine for any farm. The uses to which it may be put*are too numerous to list. Not on’y is it an economical aid in the work of plowing, cultivating and harvesting, hauling heavy loads, etc., but there is hardly a day any season of the year when it can’t be put to practical use on belt power work, such as cutting ensUage, sawing wood, pumping water, grinding feed and baling hay. The chassis has been designed to permit the use of a body with am­ ple loading space for any commodity.

SOME GOOD TIRE ADVICE. Moving the tires forward as they wear Is one of the best ways to pro­ long their life. If you start with all new tires, run them for about half their guaranteed mileage, and then exchange front and rear. The great­ est strain and wear comes on the rear tires, and bo these should al­ ways be the strongest and newest. As for the right and left sides, the right wears first, because the road Is rougher, the weight of the car Is thrown that way by the crown of the road. So move your tires forward as they wear out in the following se­ quence: The new tire should be placed on the right rear, then moved to the left rear, then to the right front, then to the left front. Your spare tire will be the newest and least used. When a tire must be removed for repairs you will use the spare tire in its place until it is returned, when It should go back to Its original position. Keep a close tab on the mileage of each tire, as it will enable you to de­ termine which makes are best, if you are using your tires right, and also give you a basis to argue from be­ fore the tire adjuster.

Cktrac Tank=Type TRACTOR What Do You Want a Tractor For? The first thing you will think of is plowing. But don’t stop there. If your tractor is to be a profit-maker for you, it must do much more than plow. It must be able to do practically all the work around your farm that you have been in the habit of doing with horses or mules and do it better and more cheaply. It must be able to do your harrowing and fitting and seeding. It must be able to do your haying and harvesting. It must be able to do, your hauling. It must be able, to do your belt work And- it must work in all sorts of soil, too. sandy soil, volcanic ash soil, wet clay, hard soil, soft soil, heavy and light soil. It must be able to handle your work on ^de hills and grades, as well as on level fields. t In short, it must be able to do all kinds of farm work at all times of the year. The Cletrac Tank-Type Tractor was designed and built with a knowledge of the various kinds of farm work it would have to do in order to meet tbe farmer's approval and solve his tractor prob­ lems. The more you Investigate the Cletrac. the better you will be satisfied that It measures up to these requirements. Will the Tractor Work on Side Hill and Grades? The big. heavy tractor, all wheel-type tractors and tractors with the bulk of their weight high above the ground nre. bound to have trouble on heavy grades or side hills. This was conclusive­ ly demonstrated at the big tractor demonstration at Walla Walla. Wash., in April, 1819, where the grades ran up to 38 per cent, and there w much side hill work. At that demonstration, bs at all demonstrations where similar conditions have prevailed, the Cletrac Tank-Type Tractor negotiated every side hill and grade, doing uniform and perfect plowing and harrowing under all con­ ditions. while many competing machines found these conditions too hard tor them. They might work fairly well on level ground, but they weren't suited to the kind of work they were asked to do at Walla Walla. If your farm is rolling or hilly, don't take any chances. Save yourself a lot of grief by buying a Cletrac in the first place. Will the Tractor Work in Sandy. Soft or Wet Ground? That’s the most trying tractor test. That’s the test where most tractors fall short. That's the kind of work where the Cle­ trac will demonstrate its superiority every time. The reason is simple. The weight of the Cletrac is only 3300 pounds. Its weight rests on a track surface of over 600 square inches. That means that the ground pressure ofeach square Inch is about 5 1-2 pounds. Tbe ground pressure of tbe average tractor is at least 10 pounds per square inch. Let us illustrate. A mai shoes can walk on the top of soft snow where a man on foot would sink in. The Cletrac, with its big "foot surface", goes over the top where the heavier tractor with small surface in contact with the ground sinks in. • What does that mean to you? Just this: Tbe Cletrac can be used n light, sandy soil and In volcanic ash soil where other tractors find great difficulty in getting tracAnd because of its large traction surface and its light weight, the Cletrac will work in wet soil where most tractors would simply mire themselves in. X You can plow several weeks earlier In the spring and later in the fall with the Cletrac than you can with most other tractors and in some sections that means all the difference between a good crop and crop failure. As compared with horse*, remember that Cletrac plowing means plowing 7 to 8 inches deep. It means 7 1-2 to 10 acres in a 10-hour day, or plowing for 24 hours a day if you need to. It means using cheap fuel—kerosene or distillate—to furnish power; less than two gallons an acre under ordinary conditions as against feeding oats, corn and hay at present prices. And don’t forget this: When the Cletrac is idle, it doesn't cost a cent—it isn’t eating Its head off all winter. With the Cletrac, when your work stops, your expense stops. Other Farm Work for the Tractor Hundreds of farmers are using their Cletracs to pull their mowers or binders. Others haul their hay and other crops with the Cletrac. The Cletrac is used to haul stone, to pull stumps, to haul logs and lumber, to <haul the manure spreader and. in fact, to do all the hauling jobs about the farm. The average tractor is not suited to do a lot of such work. For instance: In many sections, clover or alfalfa is sown with spring grain crops. The average heavy tractor, with its heavy flange wheels to get traction, digs up these tender plants, if used on a binder, whereas the Cletrac, with a large track surface and ground pressure, doesn’t In-jure the clover or alfalfa at all. In buying your tractor, you should take all these things into consideration. The tractor that will best meet all your farm needs is the Cletrac.. Belt Work with the Cletrac. There are three good reasons why the Cletrac is better for belt work. First: It is easy to line up—and easy to keep lined up. Second: It is big enough to handle the high-speed, heavy fu^m machinery, such as ensilage cutters, large grinding machines and up to 24-inch threshers, yet small enough for economy in operating such relatively small loads as wood saws, Irrigation pumps and feed grinders of the ordinary site. Third: The Cletrac motor is equipped with a governor which adjusts the amount of fuel used to the power required by the var­ ious machines. The Right Machine for the Job. The tremendous road building program of 1919, 1920 and 1921 places new responsibilities on every man connected with the construction of highways. He must not only know how to build good roads with brick, with concrete or with the material that is available in hls own locality, but he must know the best machines for doing hls work efficiently and economically. When the tractor question is considered, one machine stands out as by long odds the best suited for tbe difficult conditions met in road building. In the opinion of hundreds of highway engineers, the Cletrac Tank-Type Tractor could not produce better results for them if it had been specially designed for road use. Cletracs are being bought for this purpose by contractor* and public officials in every state. They are owned by counties, by townships, by small and large cities tn every part of the country. The Cletrac is manufactured by The Cleveland Tractor Com­ pany of Cleveland, Ohio, the largest producers of tank-type tract­ ors in the world. . Cheaper and Better Than Horses or Mules. The Cletrac ha* been designed, first of all, to serve as an eco­ nomical source of power. For road work that mean* a machine that will displace enough animal power to make it a profitable investment. The Cletrac does this, and at the same time does its work un­ der conditions which draft stock could not even atj^mpt. Figure out for yourself the cost per day of. say, six of ypur very best horses or mules. You will find an investment of at least 11.500 in the animals alone and a cost of from >800 to >1.000 per year up-keep. Then go over your records and see just how many days those six animals worked during the last twelve months. The days they did not work must be counted as dead loss. With these figures before you. you will have a fair, conserva­ tive standard with which to compare the power value of the Cle­ trac Tank-Type Tractor, for on hundreds of road jobs the Cle­ trac is handling more work in a day than six horses or six mules * had handled. And it keeps on working without regard to weather or road conditions. . Cletrac Power Is Tireless. As a road commissioner, adlrecting part in this great movement toward a more firmly united and more prosperous country. In either event you know that the cry "make haste" rings con­ stantly up and down the road. You know that on many jobs horses must be driven up to the limit of their power to endure—and even then you-may not finish the job on lime. With the Cletrac Tank-Type Tractor you have dependable powus—o<m ioj Xp'iej sAbajh ja d endurance that is almost limitless. Hour after hour, day after day, week In and week out, the Clotrac Is on the job. , It clears the roads of stumps and stones. It hauls the plows, the scarifera, the scrapers, the graders, the heavy rollers and the wagon trains. In addition. Its 20 horsebower at the belt Is always available for work on stone crushers and concrete mixers of medium size: Travels Over Rough Ground Like Battle Tanks The Cletrac Tank-Type Tractor travels on its own endless tracks, of which 600 square inches are on the ground all the time. It lays down its tracks, rolls over them and picks them up for a further advance, exactly as the mighty battle tanks did in their wonderful work with the Allied armies. There is no slippage, “digging in” or miring, no injury to the road over which the Cletrac travels. A, Ils trtAk, conform lo the unerenneas ot the ground. It can travel easily and smoothly over the worst road surfaces. This same feature of construction enables tbe Cletrac to go through loose sand, wet clay or soft, soggy soil and over ditches and gullies that no other type of machine could even attempt. The Cletrac can also travel over good roads or roads In process of contraction without injuring the surface. This is something no tractor of the wheel type can do. Its continuous traction, itsacientlflc distribution of weight, and its pressure on the ground of only a little over five pounds per square inch, make the Cletrac Tank-Type Tractor the ideal machine for use in road building operations. s These advantages have made It, also, a big asset to the equipment of building contractors. No other type of machine can go in and climb out of excavations with such facility. A ) HOW THE CLETRAC RUNS—All the weight of the Cletrac 1* carried on 6 roller-bearing equipped wheel* which run on two metal tracks. The power is transmitted to the rear sprocket through the rear axle and the dust-and-dirt-proof internal gear. The rear sprocket* engage the linked chain or track and drive the tractor forward on Its own track. None of the weight of the tractor 1* carried upon either the front idler sprocket wheels or upon tbe sear sprocket drive wheels. I WILL CONSIDER IT * GREAT PLEASURE TO SHOW YOU IT IT WORK.

He was doing chores when the storm came up, and the lightning Struck the barn, set­ ting It on fire, and continuing'on its course, struck Harry, who was stand­ ing in Che door, burning the right side of hls face and body and setting hls clothing on fire. He was pulled away from the burning building and everything possible done for him, but he was beyond human aid. A pecular circumstance was that Harry bad just returned from the funeral of a little girl, where he acted as a pall-bearer, little dreaming that kind bauds would soon have the service to perform for him. Anna, the nine-year-old daughter of Allie Wells, had the misfortune Thursday to break kier leg just above the knee, while jumping across a ditch. A. G. Scott', who has been in the upper peninsula since last fall, hunt­ ing, Ashing and trapping, returned this week with a bronzed face and bushy beard.

A. ................ ..... .... ............. Past Shortage of Tills Fuel Nothing To What is in Prospect. Kash ano Karry THE ECONOMY, QUALITY AND SERVICE STORE If you are going to burn coal next winter you'd be wise to buy it soon. Even now the supply Is far from meeting the demand, and with a .strong foreign demand for American coal the shortage In the coming few months will be alarming. One of the factors that Is not help­ ing any in relieving the situation is the big demand by manufacturers who can afford to pay any price for fuel. Ono automobile manufactur­ er of Detr^t was in the Illinois coal fields a short time ago and offered 26 to 17 per ton at the mouth of the mine. What this would mean de­ livered at his factory can be easily [figured at around 811 to $12, when ! freight and handlin'; are added. This is nothing for him to worry about as the added cost Is easily put on the selling price of the car. We cannot be assured that all will be clear sailing even after the min­ ers get their additional yap, as min­ ers in the past have not been averse to forgetting their pledges. Our advice Is to buy next winter’s supply of coal as early as you can. Of course the price Is something awful, with hard coal around $15 and bi­ tuminous sticking around $10, but what can a fellow do but pay It and look pleasant as he can —Grand Ledge Independent.

I believe that above all else this country needs a nation-wide re­ vival of old-fashioned prayermeetlng religion, bmm The need of the hour Is not more legislation. The need of the hour is more of the religion of Jesus Christ divinely implanted In the human life. More religion is needed everywhere, from the halls of con­ gress to the factories, mines, and forest It is one thing to talk about plans and policies, but a plan and policy without a religious motive is like a watch without a spring. The solving of the labor situation to wholly a question of religion, The wage-worker will never be satisfied “ with hlgner wages and shorter hours any more than the profiteers will be satisfied with bigger profits and fin­ er houses. "Things” never did satisfy anyone and never will. Satisfaction and contentment are matters of religion. Meanwhile what Is happening to our churches? Many of them are go­ ing to seed. And yet the church is the only organization In existence for generating right motives in man. Schools develop Intellect. Theatres and novels foster passion, but the church is the sole organization which develops those good motives of love, hope, sympathy and inspiration on which the industrial salvation of the world depends. But that organiza­ tion seems to be shorn of Its power, and other agencies which develop hate, jealousy and fear are running rampant. Services Sunday as follows.

"It's like everything else—takes your be3t pow- “Ah—I see you understand," she re­ plied gratefully, and it seemed to me with a little emphasis on the “you" that set him apart from me; and that, I have always thought/wns the precise point at which they began to draw to­ gether in a friendship that made him her warm partisan, even against me; for the next time he saw me alone he told me he bad decided she had better keep the diamonds. “Of course," he agreed again., “And I can see how you couldn’t feel equal to It after what you’ve been through this morning." This was artfully hint­ ed to lead back to Claire. They might have continued their In­ terchange of opinions on Claire and her father for the next half-hour— judging by the way they seemed to be enjoying It—but I brought them to earth with the question: “How are we going to protect Claire from the new man? He’s probably determined to see her and find out something about her father s whereabouts." “The deuce!” cried Billy. “rd for­ gotten him. Don’t let him see her. If he comes back, whatever you dol” This to Mrs. Delario. “It would- bo simply too dreadful for her.” "I know. Still, I can’t keep her a prisoner in her room. You wouldn’t suggest that, would you?" "Heavens, no!" Bll[y rapped out “I should say not! Hasn't she been through about enough already?" "But suppose the man has already traced her there and has the house watched—the same as her father did?" I flung in. “That’s one of the important things I came to see you about—" Mrs. De­ lario turned to me. “If the house Is watched—and I feel it Is, or will be before the day Is over—Claire is vir­ tually a prisoner. I won’t dare to let her go out alone.” “The deuce!" cried Billy, jumping up and snatching his hat off the table as though he were about to run-to the rescue. Then he turned as red as a beet and signaled me with hls eyes and a couple of gestures which she did not see—“Help me out, can’t you? Make her ask me to go home with her." For he had the wit to see. be­ fore he'd let himself In with a won!, mat he that ne couldn roman’tc force lorce himself nimseir on a wynan like Mrs. Delario without plac- ■ ing himself before both of us In the position of an officious pup and very likely getting a snub that would spoil bls chances. I played to his signa!—and won a bushel of gratitude from both sides. “Won’t you let Mr. Rivers go home with you and find out how Claire is “Expectlng me?” He seemed sur­ prised that I khoeld be expecting him at that time nnd asked why, at the same time motioning me to take a chair by :ny study table and showing me he would alt In the other. To gain time on my side, I went on: "I fear you worried about Claire, when she did not come. I should have tele­ phoned you, but my telephone seems to be out of order.’’ I had a malicious pleasure in re­ minding him that he was the one to suffer for It and a frown passed over hls face, but was gone in an Instant as he Raid: “It is of no consequence," and then plunged Into the matter at hand. fWhlle I wait for ze lift to pass down just now, I sink I recognize ze voice of Madame Delario. She Is here a moment since, is she not?” , He paused as if In hopes that 1 would tell him what she had come for, but I had taken quick stock of the situation and decided to let him do all the talking. “Zen she have probably told you zat I have seen her last evening?” “Yes—she mentioned It, I believe.” “Bien—zat helps me to explain.

I read It: “Large reward for name of person recently offering special set of matched stones. State number and color. Box 82.

Fifteen months of continuous ser­ vice on original Fisk tire equipment for a distance of 11,170 miles before the first change was made, is the ex­ perience of a Cleveland, O., car own­ er. On April 4, 1918, he bought a small model touring car, specifying 23x 31-2 Fisk tires. On July 2, 1919, with odometer showing a mileage of 11,170 he was forced to "re-ttra" on one wheel. The other three stood up for a considerable greater dis­ tance. The car, weighing a ton and a half, was used over all kinds of Ohio roads. The results from using Fisk tires were so pleasing to this Clevelander, who is general manager of a large company, that he now in­ sists that every car belonging to bls company is Fisk equipped. 08732064 Dromedary dates, pkg 25c CARD OF THANKS.

Mills was born February 12, 1864, at Penfield, Calhoun coun­ ty, Michigan, and departed this life after a long illness, April 80, 1920. He was the elder son of James B. and Louisa M. Mills, both of whom predeceased him. He was married to Mary E. To­ bias May 8, 1886, who survives him. In the spring of 1894 he unltpd *with the Methodist Episcopal church in Nashville, Michigan, and was a con-, scientious Christian worker. He ex­ emplified by his life, what it means to live a Christian and better still, what it means to die a Christian; he bore his affliction and intense suffer­ ing with a Christian* fortitude. He was a loving husband ... . and . _ brother and a loyal friend to his as­ sociates. He never had children of his own, but the two nieces, Clara and Lottie Newton, who lived in his home from childhood, were as dear to him as though they had been his own.

MEANS Two Ways to Sell Things These Days ONE—To sell to a “one time customer”—the sale to the man who prooably will not come in again. THE OTHER —To sell to people who are likely to "repeat”—who may be in to buy again in a day or two. We have only the second principle. Every customer is a possible “repeat” We’re so very, very careful to see that he gets the best attention, the best values in clothing and men’s and boys’ wear, the best of our judgment in men's wear matters.

M C. L. GLASGOW THE MOTHER OF MAN. On the second Sunday In May the nation will observe Mothers’ Day. Every one knows Mothers' Day— why it la, when it is, and for what It stands. It comes as close to our hearts as Christmas or the Fourth of July, for it is the day upon which we honor the mother of man. The arms of motherhood form the cradle of the human race. They are the rock upon which wo rest our hopes of the future, the guiding star which leads humanity through the perils of Infancy and Into the safe harbor of maturity. Pages upon pages could be writ­ ten of the glories of our mothers, but not all of the words of the Eng­ lish language could do them Justice. It Is beyond the power of our humble pen.

A visit to this cave Is certainly a unique and wonderful experience. No­ where else can It be duplicated. The Interior is a maze of domes, pits, halls, chambers, pillars, temples, cascades, caverns, crevasses, stalactites and stalagmites, carved stone and other characteristic and peculiar phenomena । and falryllke fonns fashionable in cave architecture. There are lakes and rivers In It—one can boatride on the ' Echo river for’ half a mile. The lofty limestone roof. 60 feet high In places, and the battlemented shores reflect and magnify every sound. I The Giant’s Coffin is the largest rock । in the cave. It In 18 feet thick, 43 feet long and weighs 2.<MK> tons. Mammoth : Dome, the largest and most Impressive I of many, Is 280 feet high. Many varle| ties of animal life are found. Including eyeless Ash nn<> blind crawfish. The air is good and the temperature even— about 54 degrees. There are several routes through the cave, the longest re­ quiring a full day. Dickens* Cold. Charles Dickens bad a cold and thus described It tn a letter to a friend: “I am at thia moment deaf in the ears, hoarse In the throat, red In the nose^ green In the gills, damp In the eyes, twitchy In the jolnta and fractloua In the temper." If PROTECTION! Have you given a thought to your family’s wel­ fare after your death? Will you leave them comfort­ ably provided for or will they be subjected to the miseries of poverty ? That is a question the head of every family should ponder over. If you are a wage earner and your living depends upon your yearly pay, it is doubly essential that you have insurance protection, life, health and accident. I can write you a policy of any kind, with payments arranged so that they may be easily met. Just say the word and I will be glad to talk it over with you. W. L Gibson, Special Agt.

The fad­ dist wears creases in his overalls,' while the real worker wears greases. Notice “Warp” Olin, for Instance. There’s one guy we would like to take a good, healthy "Dob Martin" swing at, and that’s the sugar profi­ teer. Many of them are cleaning up millions of dollars in sugar without ever moving the sugar even from one warehouse to another, and the penal­ ty will be paid by each and every one of us, because sugar will surely re­ tail at 30 cents per pound before the end of the canning season. Here are two marked extremes of life: A good reputation Is hard *.o make and easy to lose, while a bad one is easy to make and hard to lose. A Piece of Tile By Katharine Eggleston Roberts. (Copyright. IMS. W»»i«rn Nawapaper Union) “Is this where I used to live, grand­ mother?” The little girl stood tn the middle of No Man’s Land, surveying the torn ground and leafless trees. “Yes, dear, right here where you are standing." The old woman slipped and slid over the uneven earth, peer­ ing now Into one cavity, now Into an­ other, seeing always only small bits of broken bricks, and sometimes a rusted obus. “Louisa," she called to her daughter, "I believe this Is where the old cherry tree stood. Try here. I seem to remember hearing Paul say he burled it near the tree." Louisa, a tall, broadly built woman, thrust her spade Into the ground and silently began to dig. “Grandmother," the child called from a little distance, “did father and moth­ er live here, too?" “Yes. Maria." Madame Verbeek turned to her daughter again. “If we don’t find the money, what are we to do for Marla? If only her mother wen here. We have nothing." “And when Paul turned t everything to sliver and burled it before he left, he thought he put It tn the safest place." Louisa straightened her ach­ ing buck. “Yes, and he thought he'd come for It himself. Somehow, he never seemed tn realize that he might never come." Her voice dwindled to a whisper. Louisa began to dig again. The old woman wandered off, looking, always koklng. till she same to where Marla stooped and poked at something In the debris. It was round and white, with cavernous eyes and broken teeth. The child recoiled. The widening black pupils darkened the gniy of her eyes as she stared fascinated. “IPs Just like the ones we saw on the way.

I give you two hours in which to bring me zoze diamonds.” And the diamonds lay on my table beside him! I had only to reach out my hand and say, “Here.” and the mat­ ter was settled. Yet something in me kept saying, “No — no — no — you mustn’t!" I said nothing and monsieur repeat­ ed, “If In two hours zoze diamonds are not In my hands I will have her son ar­ rested." and I sat there looking at the box and thinking that in two seconds —If I so willed it—the diamonds would be in his bands! No—I dared not do It without at least exacting some proviso that should prevent their use In the treaty with Mexico—it would be treachery tc my country, cowardice. We had twe hours—we could do something In that time—we’d not. .the three of us, give up without a struggle.* “Well?" he asked. “But just what do you wish me to do?” I asked, finding my tongue again. “I don’t seem to be clear on it." “I have been telling you," he showed signs of Impatience. “I wish you tc call upon'her immediately—she is al home, for my daughter is wls her—" he smiled at that, remembering how he’d used Claire to checkmate Billy and me the night before. "Repeat zls interview rat you have wls me—con­ vince her zat I am ready to have her son put under arrest”—he drew for­ ward to the edge of his chair anB con­ tinued in the tone of one addressing a partner—“I a sure you xat when you have communicate zis wis her, she does one of two sings: If she have al­ ready confess to you she have ze dia­ monds. she release you instantly from ze obligation to keep her secret; and if she have not already confessed all to you, she does so—she is obliged to do so to protect herself—to ask ad­ vice of a friend who comes to warn her." By this time I had perceived that my one feasible line of action lay Ln pretending to fall In with his plans, thus gaining time in which to consult Billy as well as "* * ’ said smoothly: "I appreciate the delicacy with which you have put the case to me and relieved me of the necessity . of talking to you about my friend—I can’t tell you how I appreciate it—■" and there I stuck I What did I mean to do?—tell him Td go? And if I did, was I to take the diamonds or leave them behind in the house? At that instant of Indecision and perplexity my eye lighted upon the note sent up by my recent mysterious you. I employ him to keek for ray daughter I What does It mean?- I have employ no one to for my daughter—no one. He tells you an untrnse. What have you sought is bls object to tell you zat he seeks my daughter F -I thought It was a plot against her." “A plot against Claire! Mon Dieu! Zit I urf not prepare for.” He was too genuinely shocked and astonished for me to doubt his word and I went on, “Yes—and Mrs. Delarlo thought bo. too—and Mr. Rivers, they both saw the note and thought it was a plot against Claire. The same man was at her house last night looking for Claire just after you had left to go to the hotel for her. Perhaps her faint­ ing here actually saved her from him," I added, quite keen on the dramatic side of It all and feeling that It was an excellent counter-irritant to dia­ monds. “Mon Dieu! What kind of a plot? And who—Mon Dieu I" Instantly I saw my chance and used It: Mrs. Delarlo still had the whip­ handle end. of the situation ; she had his daughter In her keeping while he was talking about arresting her son 1 “Mrs. Delarlo and I both thought" I said firmly, “that there is a plot on foot to kidnap Claire and hold her for ransom. It could be done.” He shrank as if he’d been struck a blow. ‘ "That is what Mrs. Delarlo came to see me about this morning," I cried, pushing my fidvantage as fast as I chuld. “She is frightened—she be­ lieves something is going to happen— and with you in California—" “I am not in California," he put In hastily. “But it was necessary zat I make some adequate reason why I leave my daughter wis her for day or two—a few hours, only, I had ex­ pected—•" “Until you can arrest her son! Oh, for shame, monsieur I" I exclaimed hotly, with both real and assumed in­ dignation. He tried to excuse himself, “But ze arrest of Monsieur Eugene Is only a possibility—In case you fail to Impress her wls ze wisdom of to re­ turn zoze diamonds immediately; a possibility zat you avoid for her en­ tirely." “Your obligations to Mrs. Delarlo are now such—” “Oul—I appreciate It—ze situation is changed In an instant of time. . • .

Thlrf great wall is 22.403 feet long. 17 feet high. 10 feet wide at the bottom and five feet wide on top. It is built of concrete and granite and rests .on n foundation of piling. These plies are 40 feet long, not less than 12 Inches in diameter at the small end. four rows wide, set four feet apart The top of the wall is used for a walk. To prevent water from the gulf flowing behind the wall and flooding the city during severe storms, the grade of a large portion of the city was raised from 2 to 17 feet. This ne­ cessitated the raising of about 2,500 buildings and the readjustment of streets, sidewalks, street car tracks, electric lights, water and gas pipes to the new level. The fllling-ln material was taken from the bay. The dredges, after! pumping their holds full, steamed up a canal behind the wall and discharged their toad through pipe lines leading down the various streets. When the work was completed the canal was filled. The magnitude of this under­ taking is unparalleled in America. assortment in both knitted wear. IX»n*t and see them. We show you.

Illg, Western Newspaper Union) “They stole my beer pump—those Germans,” she set the bow! of steam­ ing mussels before me with a thud, “and how can a person keep a good tavern without a beer pump?” Her hands rested on her broad hips and she gazed over Saint Anne’s uneven street at the cathedral tower in Ant­ werp acrons the Scheid. Out on the cobblestones th In! egged children played “hlnkelen." a sort of hop-scotch. Their wooden shoes that flopped at the heels made the game difficult and exciting. They shouted and jumped high to avoid the lines. Near the water’s edge two girls washed mussels in a wooden tub and plied them into palls.

He stumbled Into the hole and broke his ankle and the ends of the boards a little. It was the same man who tttok my l»eer pump."

The cnse of Ypres Is particularly In­ teresting. It h»d been proposed at one time to preserve the rains of the whole town Id their present state as a war memorial. But the Interest of private owners and the attachment of inhabl- ' tants to their town will hate to be taken Into consideration. It Is to be hoped that the burgomaster’s plan for the rebuilding of the whole town. In­ cluding the Cluth hull and the cathe­ dral will not materialize, but nothing will prevent the Inhabitants from going back to their old houses and restoring them to the best of their abilities. While regretting, from a purely artis­ tic point of view, that the present en­ semble of the grandest pile of ruins created by the war will not be entirely preserved, every Belgian will feel hap­ pier to think that, even here.

They stop­ ped on their way to school the other morning and picked a beautiful bou­ quet of wild flowers to take as a lov­ ing gift to the teacher. Later, on their way, they were passed by a team of horses attached to a wagon with a load of cream, coming to' Nashville. They stepped aside to al­ low the team to pass, but just as they were passing one of the horses reached out and grabbed the whole bouquet at one mouthful and wend­ ed his way deliberately munching what he evidently considered a deli­ cious morsel, while the teacher was shy one perfectly good bouquet that morning. Nothing for the L. A. S. Mrs. Lowell Jarrard made a ship­ ment of live stock by express one day last week that was a bit out of the ordinary. It was 220 white mice, and the tiny rodents attracted con­ siderable attention as they scamper­ ed around in their shipping box in front of the express office. Th6y were consigned to the John D. Rock­ efeller hospital at Chicago, where they are used in testing and devel­ oping various kinds of serum. This is but one of several shipments Mr^, Jarrard has made, and she says she has sold $85 worth of the little ro­ dents since January. But we could­ n’t help but think what a scampering the contents of that box would have made if it had been turned loose at a meeting of the Woman'! Literary club, or some such social function.

Younger women have married older men, Clara —and I would protect Rose-Marie ten­ derly. You see women have been a lost part of my existence—no mother from Infancy, no sisters, just one up­ hill struggle to the profession. “Who Is this Aunt Piper? And why, exactly, is our' little Rose to be sent to her?" “She Is a sister of mine," Mrs. Wil­ mot replied, "for whom the rest of us had ever an awed respect.

I could have fallen .on his neck and wept, only he was so dreadfully sober himself. ' “I’m at my wits’ end," he blurted as soon as he was inside the door. “So is Mrs. Delario—so is Miss de RavenoL We’re ail in a muddle because we can’t any of us explain all we know to anybody pise. Miss de Rave­ nol has it in her head that her father's arrested—going to lose his life be­ cause she lost the ‘papers.’ I don’t know what to do! If I t<fl! Miss de Ravenol it was diamonds and they've been found, she won’t believe me; and If I.tell Mrs. Delario what Claire means by 'papers,' she won’t believe me! So between us all, the poor girl’s cried her eyes out and we’re all distracted. “And that’s only part of it," he hur­ ried on. “Baron von Follow-up was there again, and I got him neat! He came In, same as the other customers and sat down in the reception room— just the way> Mrs. Delario said any­ one-could do who was wise to the game. 1 was there pretending ra come for a reading like the rest “I recognized him and he recog­ nized me—you know, I passed him in tbe hall up here yesterday. But 1 didn't wait for him to make the first move—I sailed In on him. He took the sofa and I got up and went over and sat down beside him. I told him, *You’re here in the interests of the Emperor William about a little mat­ ter of state—diplomatic business Mon­ sieur de R. had charge of—that hasn't gone exactly according to program.’ “Say—he pretty near jumped down my throat I Gave It all away com­ pletely I Said he had a private—and very important—communication from the emperor to deliver Immediately— there was a change of plan in the dip­ lomatic business—he must see De Ravenol Immediately and he hadn’t been able to locate him. Did I know where he was? “As soon as the baron asked me where De Ravenol was I saw the chance to get rid of him so be wouldn’t be pestering around any more. I said yes—I knew about where he was—on the train—he went to California in the morning—" “California!” I gurgled. “On the train! Not for a mile! He’s down­ stairs In this house, hiding—he was here when your baron came with a warrant to arrest him!" And punctu­ ated with Billy’s astonished exclama­ tions, I poured out my own tale of woe and romance and wound up with monsieur's explanation—that it was a plot of the French government to hold up the Mexican deal by keeping Claire’s father from going to Mexico and putting it through. “Don’t believe it," cried Billy. “Mon­ sieur's made a mistake—be didn't see the man. Why, old Follow-up admit­ ted to me he was working for the Em­ peror William.' De Ravenol’s got the wrong scent. But Fay—we must see him right off and put him wise to this. Say—it’s awful tough—her father Id ( such a hole. It 'most looks as if we . ought to give him back the dla-1 monds.” ' Before we could discuss It and bow to • communicate with the gentleman him­ self, be appeared at the front door. He’d gotten out in the basement, in­ stead of bis own flat, because he’d heard voices and bad taken bis chances on slipping upstairs unobserved. I hurried him in, a chastened spirit, and Billy plunged into the recital of his interview with Baron von Follow­ up and the clever way he thought he had got rid of him by saying monsieur had gone to California. I thought I had seen monsieur at the top notch of emotionalism already, but I was mistaken. He actually tore his. hair—not a great deal, but enough to tell him ze truwe? Dotis he say. *De Ravenol, I am sorry you lose zoze mo»t precious diamonds, but accidents will hnnnon happen nnd and TI knntr know you are na good man? ” He paused for a bitter laugh and to wipe his face with his handkerchief. “Perhaps you sink he says zat. Non I He tells me—*De Ravenol, I know you steal rose diamonds while you pretend sey are lost. Sings like xat don't come lost so easy as you say. So I punish you for a robber and see xat you gain nosslng from stealing my Jewels.’" Monsieur heaved a great sigh. “Zls morning, if I have zoze diamonds, X am already on my way to Mexico, but “Hide man, hide for a couple of days,” urged Billy, trying to cheer him up. “Well help you. I think you ought to be down In your den now­ rm afraid every minute that man may turn up here again." Later, I remembered the alacrity with which monsieur accepted the of­ fer, assuring us fervently. “Only to hide saves me and my child from dis­ grace. I stow myself on your mercy —I trust you wis my bonalre—wis what is dearest to me—wis my life." Billy was deeply affected. I could see. and hurried monsieur off. return­ ing in snout half an hour to report, “All serene.” I fell asleep and was dreaming that the dome of the national capltol was toppling over on all of us, when I was awakened by the ringing of the front befl. I saw by the dim light It was early —too early for anything but a fresh calamity—and I hopped out ot bed and ran to the door. “Who’s there?" I called through. “Billy. Open quick.” Billy tumbled in. "Claire’s kidnap­ ed!” be shouted in my face. I don’t know whether I put my arms around him. or he put his around me. Both, probably; but the next minute we were clinging together and his chest was heaving with hard dry sobs. When I finally got a coherent account out of him he told me that Claire had been a “little light-headed” through the evening. "Then she’s Just wandered off In a half-delirious state,”- I affirmed posi­ tively. “She’s kidnaped," Billy affirmed mure positively. “Old Follow-up has enticed her out on the pretext of find­ ing her father, and now he’ll use her as bait to get him out. I can’t decide whether to see him and tell him now, or wait" “Don’t tell him yet," I advised promptly. “You’re all upset and you think she’s kidnaped—I know she isn’t —she's just lost She's wandering about the streets now looking for her father." I dressed. What could I do? Noth­ ing but stay home and wait—as I had been doing all through. I was hardly through my simple breakfast when George came up. “Why, that genlem’n—the one sent the note you wouldn’t see yestiddy— he say he got an appointment with you fer nine o’clock." The very man Billy believed had kidnaped Claire! “Show him up,” I instructed with alacrity; and when he came I greeted him so affably he looked afraid to en­ ter. I almost flung the question at him— “Where Is Miss de Ravenol?"—before I thought, but saved It Just in time. He sat down in the chair I pushed for­ ward ; I sat opposite. He seemed at a loss to begin; I said not one word. He opened fire on me thus: "I feel I owe you an apology for my uncere­ monious call yesterday—" I merely bowed in acknowledgment “I shouldn't have insisted, you know, only we had traced the man to the house, and since he bad called on-you the evening before, it was a natural conclusion that he was calling on you then, also. They drove from their ho- father. He has not left the city—I am _ positive on that score. It is _probable ___ the girl has joined him by a precopcerted nlian plan— —or was mixmlnw meaning tn to when she left the house. Hl find her, I promise youl" “And nothing is going to happen to her after you find her?” "Happen to her! What could hap­ pen to her? I have nothing to do with her—my business Is to locate her fa­ ther and arrange a matter with him— quietly, I hope.” "And will the emperor imprison him If the. diplomatic matter Isn’t satisfac­ torily arranged?" “The emperor? Tm sure I can’t say —I don’t know anything about the emperor’s diplomatic affairs." . “Then what are you after De Rav­ enol for?" He reflected a few moments, and then with one of his funny looks, he remarked: *Td rather have you for a friend than an enemy. It appears that De Ravenol carried off a million dol­ lars’ worth of diamonds in Paris the moment they were returned from the diamond cutter’s in Antwerp where he had Induced the owner to send them for recuttlng.’’ “Oh, never 1" I exclaimed, shocked, and at the same time appreciating how monsieur had foreseen this very accu­ sation. “I can't believe he’s a thief— it's Impossible.” “I don’t wonder you doubt it," he replied. “I did myself for a while— that’s what gave him the start of me." Aud with that, off be went Poor monsieur I Accused of stealing the emperor’s diamonds! And sud­ denly the words, “They were stolen the moment they were returned from the diamond cutter's In Antwerp," flashed over me and into perspective, and with thgm, the thing I tried all along to remember, and couldn’t— monsieur’s slip when he told us the legend of the diamonds; be said they were cut tn Venice !n the fifteenth cen­ tury and they were cut In Antwerp In the twentieth! The most modern cut, and Van Routen cut them! rd been trying to remember about Van Routen when I threw down the proof sheets of “Belgian Byways.” I snatched the pages off the table and fingered them back and forth and found at last an obscure little pas­ sage: “Van Routen’s most Important work of recent years was the cutting of a collection of seven diamonds, worth at a rough estimate five million francs, which an American millionaire pur­ chased in Paris from an Indian rajah." De Ravenol stole the diamonds from the millionaire and told Billy and me a pleasing yarn to account for his pos­ session. Of course he wouldn't dare mention when the diamonds were last ait! (TO BE CONTINUED.) FLASHLIGHTS Fools and their wives are also soon parted. . In these days It seems almost as though poverty was-a disgrace. Winning the first bet is what makes gamblers out of a lot of men. There will always be a market for young man who has the goods. As a general rule a real success is a man who is trying to be more of a success. About the cnly time a man with any ambition can really retire is at bed­ time. A fool and his money are soon part­ ed. and nobody knows It any better than the profiteers. A man may be rlfter tomorrow, but the chances are that he won’t be any kinder than he Is today. Nothing makes a grouch laugh quite so heartily as to see the other fellow being made the butt of the Joke. When people say that human nature Is always the same what they mean Is that human beings are always differ­ ent. A lot of fellows who thought they had enough to live on and retired sev­ eral years ago have had to go back to work. It Is all right enough for a man to think of the other fellow, but he's pav­ ing the way to trouble and disaster when .he begins to think of the other woman.—Detroit F*e Press. SEWING SUPERSTITIONS To sew In bed Is unlucky. "Sew anything upon a person’s body and you sew up their brains." When a girt sews from a double thread she Is said to be In love. Mend on Monday and you will have BROWN BUTTOI Ry MILDRED WHITE. Rhoda sat listening as Mrs. Hamil» ton talked, and rebellion arose within her. Was it for this, the visit had been urged upon her? That she might be led Into a marriage with the ex­ acting son of her mother’s dearest friend. John Hamilton's virtues had been sung Into Rhoda’s ears as long as she could remember: John II a mil- , ton. the spoiled, and adored of bis. mother. Rhoda, In her country horns had anticipated long this stay in theK city. She had thought then only of the companionship of her mother’s girlhood friend, and of the joyful glimpses Into n big world, which she might give her. Then. “Aunt' Cyn­ thia.” as the girl had been taught to call'her hostess—spoiled it all. “I am going to be perfectly frank, Rhoda," slke said. “To have my friend’s •daughter for my own daughter-in-law, is the secret wish of my heart. Cynthia Hamilton regarded het guest perplexedly. “It cannot be, possible," Mrs. Ham­ ilton was asking, “that you are al­ ready promised to another. Rhoda? But," she quickly added, “your moth, er would have told me of your cis' gagement." "Not exactly engaged. Aunt Cyn­ thia," she calmly replied, “but there is a man whom I Intend to marry—ths man who has my heart” Which will be true, Rhoda told her consclen* ^ when the time comes. . “Your mother made no reference to a possible admirer,” Aunt Cynthia said sharply. , “I don’t think," Rhoda replied, “that mother knows him." “Not," Aunt Cynthia reproached—“a clandestine affair I” Rhoda shook Let head. "He doesn’t live In our town,” sba explained confusedly. Mrs. Hamilton sighed In relief and smiled. '"We all have those fancies, my, dear,” she said Indulgently. “When I see this lover I will consider you seriously. For the present let us drop the subject I have an errand for you to do. Would you mind going down town? You can ride directly to ths store door.

Rhoda's cheeks were still flushed from her encounter, and two dimples popped out In her cheeks. “Rhoda Blair," she said mentally, “that was an awful position to put yourself Into. Engaged—almost—and not a man on your horizon.” Just then Rhodn, dimples and all. bumped Into a man who sent the brown hutton rolling down the floor. The young man nimbly pursuing th4 button brought It bark with a bow to It's owner. And Rhoda perceiving him to be hatless, took the nice young man to be a floor usher and asked to be directed to the “button departs menL" With a stare and a quick, pleas­ ing smile, the young man offered to escort her there and with a protect­ ing arm against the shopping throng led the way to an elevator. As a store usher, howqver, he was strange­ ly remiss, for as the two Issued, through a labyrinth of ways, no but­ ton department was In evidence. It was necessary for the obliging young* man again to seek the elevator and aj search of the floors below. His gaze.* as be did so, was admiringly, though' politely bent upon Rhoda’s pretty face. And when at last the button de­ partment was found the particularly desired button, was not among Its number; the nice young man promptly, offered to have it hunted out in stock.’ and delivered surely, that evening. It was with evident regret that be bowed his fair customer through the door­ way. while Rhoda riding back to Aunt Cynthia's, experienced a pleasing sense of coming adventure. The ad­ venture arrived that evening. An ex­ ceedingly nice looking young maa, ushered by the maid into the presence, of John Hamilton and his motherj asked, flushing boyishly, to see “Miss Blair.” While Rhoda, entering ati that moment, was in time for Nru Hamilton’s reproachful remark. “Yow did not tell me," she said, “that tbe friend of whom yon spoke lived Id out! city."

Tbe man Is killed 1” Old Aunt Celia uttered the words in a shrill cry of excitement and alarm. Sb* hobbled slowly after her niece, Lesbla Darrow, as the latter dashed down the porch steps and out to the street Thrilled by what she had viewed, chilled with apprehension, Lesbla breathlessly paused at the side of the road to gaze down in dread and hor­ ror at a munpled-np human figure. It was that of a man slightly older than herself. Only a moment before she had noticed him crossing the road. An automobile holding four reckless young men had rounded the corner, never sounding tbe horn’s warning, and when their machine struck the man and threw him to the curb they dashed on unheeding. Old John Barton, a neighbor, came limping to the spot Mr Miss Olla near­ ly fainted, and clung to a tree to sup­ port her trembling form. He knelt beside the prostrate figure. Then he looked up with a colorless and trou­ bled face. "He Is pretty badly hurt, Tm afraid," he announced. “Bring him Into the house at once," spoke Lesbla instantly. The doctor was called on the tele­ phone by Mr. Barton and looked seri­ ous a* he reported an arm broken, a bad gash at the back of the head and one lower limb sprained. He looked over the clothing of the patient. There was nothing found except a purse con­ taining a few dollars and some printed cards having only the name Alton Drake, with no address. There was no hospital in the little town, and Aunt Celia, always sympathetic and generous hearted, ftsisted on shelter­ ing the unfortunate stranger until he was In a condition to Indicate who he was and where he came from. For two days and nights be lay In a deep coma, then a fever supervened. It was not until a week had passed that he was fully restored to sensibility. He looked Intensely grateful and In­ terested when the doctor told him of his environment and the kind souls who had sacrificed their poor means and time to see that he was cared for. The physician told him that It would be several weeks before he would be able to get about, and recommended hospital treatment "Not if these dear ladis* will let m« stay here* objected Alton Drake. “I haven’t had a home for many a year, doctor, and this seems like one, In­ deed. I shall see that these people are well paid for their trouble." "I don’t think the gentle souls have ever thought of that,” responded the physician. "They are not of that kind." "Truly, indeed, I have fully realized that," murmured the invalid grate­ fully. He was strong enough to discuss with Aunt Celia the event of retain­ ing him as a regular boarder till he recovered, and she showed, and he knew, that the opulent sum he named in reimbursement meant a great deal to her. He was attended diligently, and as he came back to normal aunt and niece formed a decided liking for him. “We haven’t had time'to do any of our old-time dreaming since be came," observed Lesbla, as she and her aunt sat In the gloaming. Her tones were low and cautious, for she had noticed that their patient was asleep in the “You want to get back to the old enjoyment of building houses In tbe attj” smiled Aunt Celia. "DearI dear! what filmy castles we have construct- It had been a favorite and pleasur­ able enjoyment for those two lonely souls to pass a visionary hour Imag­ ining and then planning what they would do “when their thlp came in." It always ended In a new home such as carried out their longing* for a domestic palace. Aunt Celia craved a sun parlor, Lesbla'* desire was a. cozy little library. Once started now, they babbled like two innocent-chlldred over their dream toys. "Oh, dear! Mr. Drake 1* awake," suddenly exclaimed Aunt Celia. They could catch the echo of dis­ tinct chuckling, and then the words: Til remember that vision house when I get well, see If I don't!” It was not until he was able to get about readily that he told them who money,” and he sent for a portion of the same the day he said good-by and left them, promising that they should see him again before fall.

Jerry Linton came buck to the mod­ est little hamlet of Rossville after a week's stay In the city quite the lion of the hour among his juvenile ac­ quaintances, until the first glamour of his embellished narrative of wonders seen and participated tn had somewhat worn away. Mis relatives, the Mor­ tons, had given him a good time In­ deed. They had a fine home, ample means, and Myrtle, a daughter, who, pleasant and sympathetic, had put her­ self out to see that Jerry was engaged tn a constant round of metropolitan sight seeing. Little did the artless, well-meaning lad realise that he had unconsciously rewarded all the kindness and Indul­ gence of his pretty cousin with a care­ less act that brought the darkest cloud of her life to her. She was particu­ larly happy one memorable morning, for she had received a written Invita­ tion from Gerald Steele to afford him the pleasure and honor of her com­ pany to an entertainment the following week. Myrtle’s beautiful eyes had beamed as she scanned the little note. He was her Ideal of a gentleman, young, handsome, intelligent, and the deli­ cacy of his attentions charmed her quite. Forthwith Myrtle Indited a reply and started down the stairs for her room Intent upon throwing on a light wrap and mailing It. Fate al­ tered her intentions, however, as she noticed Jerry tn the front hall, pack­ ing into their box a pair of roller skates with which she hail presented him that morning. “Would you mind posting my letter for me, Jerry?" she asked. “Oh, sure! Cousin Myrtle.” replied Jerry with alacrity, "rd do just any­ thing for you. Where Is the post of­ ficer “Oh, you don’t have to go there," ex­ plained Myrtle. “You know there Is a letter box at the corner?" “Is there r queried Jerry. Jerry set forth at once and Myrtle tripped up to her room again, hum­ ming a happy air, tn love with all the world, and tenderly wondering if the sender of the invitation would be as pleased as she was to reply to It. Jerry left for his native village at noon. Myrtle wandered about restless­ ly counting the hours, because she felt sure that. Gerald Steele would call Friday evening, his usual occasion for coming around to spend the evening. "Let me see,” Myrtle whispered to herselt “he will receive the note to­ morrow m-urnlng. Then there's only that day. and the next I shall see him. And he has selected an opera 1 once told him was my favorite. So he must think over and remember what I say, and I suppose thinks of me. too, once in a while." Myrtle flitted away, flushing raptur­ ously as a fugitive from the telltale thow:ht. and laughed outright at tbe trivial deception she was playing on herself. • Gerald 8t?ele did not put in an ap- pearance Friday evening and thence until the following Tuesday was a pe­ riod of gloom and unhappiness for Myrtle. The evening of the engage­ ment arrived, and while Myrtle did not allude to It before her parents, she had everything in her room ready for quick dressing when Gerald should ar­ rive. At seven o’clock she was in a fever of suspense. At eight her last hope faded away. By nine she was In bed. her face turned to the wall end crying ns if her heart would break. Then n dreary two weeks, during which time not a word was received from “the recreant lover!” Myrtle felt all the sorrowfulness of neglect and desertion. She could only con­ sider thnt 'Gerald had no further de­ sire for her company. Once in a while the pride and disdain of her na­ ture came to the surface, and briefly she would resent the direct affront she had suffered, but her sensitive, ten­ der heart would melt Into n sense of foriornness as she realized how much Gerald Steele had been to her. For a single hour, amid a sudden ex­ citement and turmoil. Myrtle forgot her sorrows. An adjoining house caught fire and the Morton house was very nearly Included In the blaze. As ft was, smoke and water somewhat damaged the latter resrdence. and Myrtle was directing the servants In removing the traces of the occasion, when she stepped out upon the porch ’to fasten up a favorite flowering vine that the firemen had torn down. She had never looked more charm­ ing than at that moment, her golden hair peeping out from the mob cap, her dress daintily pinned up, her face flushed with the animation of the mo­ ment. “Miss Morton," spoke an altogether unexpected voice, and there stood Ger­ ald Steele, smiling, a certain eager ex­ pectancy In his face. The bewildered Myrtle could not understand. “Just received it," he continued, and he extended the envelope. “It was found in the fire alarm box, and they guessed that some inexperienced hand had placed it there Instead of in the mall box. Even at this late date it must explain our mutual silence." “Jerry I" uttered Myrtle, and wa­ vered so that Gerald felt It necessary to support her for the moment Quite as familiarly Myrtle said "Gerald" the third call after that of her delighted lover, for the explana­ tion brought relief and reunion and love fully developed. ‘Did you observe, said a merchant to a customer, 'the handsome adver­ tisement I have had painted on the railtag of the bridge?’ ’No,' replied the customer, ’but if you will send the bridge around to my house I will try to read the announcement.

He was stopped at the entrance by an army nurse, who asked him what he wanted. ’Has you got a dark complected man named Johnson what's been shot in dis hospital?’ he inquired. The nurse replied that there was such a person there, adding, 'But he’s convalescing now.' ’Ah beg yo' pardon?' said Nap per­ plexedly. scratching his wool. • 'He's convalescing now,’ she re­ peated.

Western -Newspaper UnU*> It was the first position Effie Du via had held and necessity had driven her to IL She had lived with an aunt since her parents had died. Miss. Hol­ comb had some rented tenements and * she had neglected to care for the In­ surance. ’One night they burned down and she was left penniless. Effie found work with n city firm, which made - a specially of mnnufflo turlng novelties. Among them was a small bank used by the depositors of savings institutions and the duty «< Effie was to examine them. There were over fifty employees of the concern and most of them worked in large rooms in- groups, but Effie had a room all to herself. At one side was a long bench with a running leather belt which carried the banka from another part of the factory. Effie felt decidedly economical and her wages at the start were a merely negligible quantity. She brought but a meagre lunch and never went .out at noon for a meal as some of the other girls did. There were two per­ sons In the establishment only whd spoke to her amid her Isolation. One was the manager, Harry Brand. H< w-as a boastful, familiar acting fellow^ and Effie tried to keep him at a dis* tance, for twice he had asked her to dinner. Invitations promptly declined by Effie. The other worked In th# office of the plant and was an open­ faced, cheery young man, who nodded pleasantly to Effie every time he met her, but he had never infringed upon the graciousness of her friendly smll# by dallying at the door of her work­ room. He gave himself the name of Willis Humphrey. Every noontime Huinphrey camo past the door with a tin pall and went (1OTQ. IqtQ A returning with !t np.lf filled with not coffee and carrying In other hand a pnpe® bag. More than once even after het sparse luncheon Effie bad felt half famished as the appetizing aroma of the coffee was wafted to her senses^ and her Imagination reveled In Ch# thought of warm, newly cooked rolls. One noontime the young man halted Just outside her door, for he had read her longing upon her expressive facet “Pardon me. Miss Davis," he spoken but you look as though you envy me the possession of my frugal refresh­ ment. It Is that, indeed, for the coffee costs only a nickel and the buns th# same. An old lady down the court prepares them. If you say so, I can take your order noontimes. All yo# will have to supply Is a little pail Ilk# this of mine and a cup.” Effie acquiesced In Ute arrangement and It led the way to n most pleasur­ able noon hour for both. It got to be so that Humphrey <li«l not carry h!s coffee on to his own department^ but shared the same In Effie's company.’ They had Just got throdgh with their modest lunch one day when Brand ap­ peared. frowning, and directing an an­ gry glance nt Humphrey. “This Is not your department," he snapped out. “and your being here 1* against the rules." Silently Humphrey left the room, for technically Brand was in the riglit. He lingered outside In the entrance^ however, ns he heard Brand ray lu a changed, suave tune: “Well, little one. I have good new# for you. You will have a raise In wages next week. I have arranged that. Don’t I deserve a kiss for my good offices in your behalf?" There was an Indignant reply from Effie, a Jeering laugh from Brand and then a struggle. Humphrey sprang into the room. He found that Brand had seized Effie’s arm and was trying to press his lips to her own. Hum­ phrey struck out and a heavy blow sent Brand to the floor, where he lay unconscious. • “I did not mean to strike quite sti hard," said Humphrey, examining th# senseless man. Then he picked up 4 long pocketbook that had fallen from the pocket of Brand. It spread open the contents, various letters and docu­ ments. A certain packet especially attracted the attention of Humphrey. Ills eyes glowed with satisfaction and, to the amazement of Effie, he trans­ ferred this to his own pocket Just then Brand roused up. He began re­ viling Humphrey and threatening Effie with discharge from employment. “Come, Miss Davis,” said Hum­ phrey quietly. Tills Is no place for you—nor for me, either, after this,** he added In a tone mysteriously signif­ icant. “But what shall I do?" spoke Effie, as they reached the street “I must have work."

Four of them were enthusiastically planning a sleighing party. Elizabeth Martin, as usual, simply sat and listened. Now and then she sighed softly as one of her friends related some incident which took place oa the last sleighing party. They were try­ ing to decide what fellows they could depend uihhi to even up their party. “There Is that new family acres* the street nnd a perfectly stuntaing young man comes out of the house every morning, bnt he simply will not look at one of us.’’ said the hostess with a hopeless sigh. “He was pres­ ent at the church social the other eve nlng, and when I met him the next morning I thought surely he would recognize me. but he passed by with­ out even looking at me F* Each girl had some such stoiy to relate, excepting Elizabeth. Soon Elizabeth excused herself, and with a hurried good-by she went out. “I suppose Beta would have to be Included," raid one girl. “Yes. but I doubt If she will go." re­ plied another. “You know how she Is when there are fellows concerned." Just outside In tike hallway Eliza­ beth Martin smothered a low cij. She taa time Karl. unnolTced, for her rub­ bers, and as she heard her name tossed around she took a quick step forward ns if to rush Into the room where the girls were talking. A mo­ ment later she had changed her mind, and noiselessly she slipped out of the house and hurried across the street and home. So that was what they thought I She was afraid of fellows! Well, she would show them something. She. who luid never had a beau—she would go on their sleighing party and she would go with a fellow, too. Yes. she would go with Allen Morse. the fol­ low who had just moved In, next door —the fellow that all the girls had tried to attract and had failed. But she would not fall! Then perhaps they would change their minds, and she would be the ugly duckling no longer. The next thing to decide was “how to meet him.” It was Tuesday and the party was jo be Thursday. She spent the rest of the afternoon and evening In thought That day the sun had shone brightly, and the snow on the walk In front of her house had melted. “If It freezes tonight, I can do it," she told herself and as she dropped off to sleep late that night, a smile rested on her lips. Fate was with her, for the next morning was cold and windy. Shg was np early and with her coat on and an attractive tarn, which was arranged becomingly over one ear, she stood In the doorway, hidden from view by a curtain which was drawn partly aside. She watched the pedestrians as they * passed, carefully picking their along the Icy sidewalk. Suddenly the curtain at the door was drawn together and Elizabeth Martin came quickly out of her house, just as a young man came into view In front of his own house, next door, They both reached the end of Eliza­ beth’s walk at the same moment, and their ey<jM met A* Elizabeth turned the corner her foot slipped on the Ice, and with a low cry she fell forward. Allen Morse threw out his arms and caught her, holding her closely for a brief moment, but long enough to bring a burning flush to the girl’s cheeks. “All right?" be asked, aLmply. She thought she was, she told him, and after thanking him, she tried to free herself from his grasp But be had mistaken the quiver In her voice for one of pain, and kept a firm hold on her arm. As she stepped forward she swayed a little, then sank back in his arms. “Better let me help you,” he offered, and with a supporting arm around her, he led her back into the house. He made sure that she was resting comfortably before he left her, with a casual remark that “he would drop in in the evening to see If she was all right” As soon as she heard the front doot close she quickly arose and ran to the window, from where she watched him until he was out of sight “Well." she declared, "if all young men were like him. I would soon lose my reputation for being afraid of True to his promise. Allen Morse rang the doorbell of Elizabeth Martin’s home at eifht o’clock that evening. He was surprised wbe« she herself answered the ring, and invited him In, but a greater surprise was waiting Elizabeth’s girl friends, for before he left her that evenlug Allen had given his promise to accompany her on the sleighing party. The following evening a bright moon lighted the way for a merry crowd, packed tightly in a large sleigh. Klxa- There was some “knocking’’ at the bail games Sunday and Monday, be­ cause some of the boys made errors, and because the team work was not up to a* high standard. But the knockers should remember that the boys have had but very little practice and are just really getting together for. the season’s play. There are several new men on the team and it takes a few games to get the machine properly adjusted and running just right. Nobody will say that Detroit hasn't a good base ball team. Jt is conceded to be one of the best in the country, yet they have establish­ ed a terrible record for losing games this season, being at the bottom of the ladder with good prospects for staying there for some time. This is not establishing an alibi for the Nashville team, by any means, and we hope to see them smooth up their individual and team play and win a goodly share of the games before the season is over. To us, the most en­ couraging feature of their work is that every man on the team steps up to the plate with apparent confi­ dence and takes a good, healthy swat at the old j»iU. Even when “Lefty" McDonald went into the box Monday afternoon there was no dif­ ference. Not a player pulled back from the plate, and every man tried his level best to line it out. Not many succeeded, for it must be grant­ ed that "Lefty” is some box artist, but they all tried and several of them hit it hard, though not safely. Give the boys all the encouragement they deserve, pull for them to win instead of knocking for them to lose, and we will have a ball team this season that we may all be proud of. Isn't it pathetic that after all these heart-breaking primaries no­ body has the least idea who will be nominated at either of the great na­ tional conventions? That darned Will Flory does make the doctors more trouble than any­ one else in town. This time it was Dr. Brown who forgot that Bill had moved again and made a trip away out to Bill's suburban home and found nobody home, either sick or well. Joke Switched In the Making. We know of none of our acquaint­ ances who loves a little joke more than Mrs. D. H. Evans, and When she beard of a good one on Hayes Tiecbe she naturally made footsteps right away for the News office to tell the Burgomaster how Hayes went home the other day and found the hens making a nest right in the kitch­ en so that Hayes could have his freshlaid eggs handy tor his breakfast. It was very thoughtful of the hen, be­ cause Hayes is a busy man and real­ ly hasn’t time to go out and skirmish all around the barn to hunt eggs. Well, Mrs. Evans came flurrying in­ to the office and started out with **Oh, Mr. Feighner, I have a good one for your column,” and rattled on with the story and had it about half told when she happened to look around and there sat Hayes right be­ hind the big desk in the front office, and she gasped a couple of times and then we all had a good hearty laugh, in which Mrs. Evans joined as heartily as the rest of ua. The plumbers must be having a bit of a slack time of It just now. At least we Inter as much, because we came past a plumbing shop down the street yesterday, and the door was locked, and a sign was in the window—“Working at the factory.” Suppose you tell us why it is that the investments we scorned as being too shaky are the ones which would have made us rich, while those which looked so good that we couldn’t keep out of them are the onea which made us poor. Darned if we can fig­ ure ft out. Remember the old-fashioned pres­ idential candidate who used to sit on the front porch at home and let the people come to him? Suppose the republican national convention at Chicago should get in­ to a deadlock and then some one should get up and propose the name of Charlie Schwab? Can you im­ agine what would happen? Otis Gokay didn't emulate the ex­ ample of George Washington and chop down hi» father’s cherry tree, when he was a kid, and he Uvea to regret his oversight. Perhaps he wouldn't have told the truth about it, like George did, anyway. Be that as it may, Otis knew that tree, which has now grown to be some tree, needed some cutting done to it, so he climbed up into it and com­ menced cutting. We might perhaps say “And thereby hangs a tale,” on­ ly it didn't hang; neither did Otis. Whether he climbed out on a limb and cut the limb off after him or not, la a mooted question, but the first thing Otis knew the ground stopped him and stopped him with sufficient emphasis to smash a shoulder blade. Wherefore Otis is extending his va­ cation for a week or two he had intended, and Engineer Frank Russell is always on the job when there is a fire, but last Wednesday night he was not" only the engineer, but the whole darned fire department. Will Flory was coming home from Wood­ land, feeling pretty good over hav­ ing managed to secure five gallons », when there was none to Nashville. Just opposite ng station Bill thought he the smell of Howard Brooks is one of the real fire fighters of the Nashville depart­ ment. He isn't afraid of the fire. During the exhibition practice of Monday noon he jumped into the. fray with such reckless abandon that he burned the hide off his nose, and he says next time he’ll put on one of the new nose bags the department has been supplied with.

WesUrn N«*ap«p«r Uatoa) Mathilda van Straelen tucked the blanket about her three Bleeping chil­ dren and, for a moment, regarded the touseled little heads. Maybe if the bedclothes had been clean, she would have noticed how dirty the children’s faces were and washed them. But she only pulled the soiled blanket up to the small, grimy chins and left dirt, the hnrmonlxer of all things, undis­ turbed. Across the room was another cot. Its coverings (leaped In the midst of It ns they had been left In the morning. She started toward It, stopped halfway, then pushing some newspapers from a chair, sat down and dully regarded her husband. He was writing at a small table, the top of which was clear save for a pile of neatly written pages. The flickering light from die lamp on the cluttered dinner table near him emphasized the* sharpness of his ascetic features and deepened the shadows under his eyes. Mathilda’s gaze followed the move­ ment of tiie pen In his long slender fingers. “I don’t see why you go on with that writing, Andre. You'll never get anywhere with It now. The war spoiled every chance anybody had at everything." “No. nut everything." Then as he looked up the light In his face cloud­ ed.

Leon I e was eight and the twins six. They were old enough to know how to behave to people. Why wouldn't she teach them?

His home should be like that They had exactly the same things but their dishes shone on the cupboard shelve*, their beds were al­ ways made when he called, and the children had excellent manners. They were well washed, too. They looked healthier and happier than his little ones. Was the difference his fault? Surely not—he and Verbeek were In the .same positions—they did the same things. But Madame Verbeek did not say “why bother." It was true she worked all day long to keep things going and make ends meet. She did it because she had not lost her pride and It was the work that kept her from losing herself. Mathil­ da—but he must not think that way. He began to prepare for bed. Though the lamp was burning low, he could still we his wife as she lay asleep. She had been pretty once, but now somehow her face had changed, the skin was sallow, the expression different—that was It—the expression. She had not taken down her hair; wisps of it made a ragged fringe about her forehead and neck. Hairpins stuck out nt grotesque angles. He wished she would brush It ns she used to do.

It certainly was a prvbie^—this knowing what to do when you were a sweet girl graduate of a week’s standing, with three positions In the offing to choose from. Should she teach French in the local high school, be­ come an assistant matron In the dis­ tant city home for wayward girls or take the job of private secretary to the senior member of a well-known law firm? There they were—three ex­ cellent opportunities, any one of which a girl might be glad to seize. And, oh, to be sure, incidentally, there was yet one more—namely, a position as wife of James Kittredge Stuart, good-looking, rapidly rising, a very devoted friend of long standing. But Barbara curled her lip at the thought of following up her years and years of study by—marriage. What a comedown I Any girl could be mar­ ried, but ahead of her, Barbara saw un­ conquered fields accessible to only the equipped few. She hddn’t seen Jim for some time —not since the Ivy Night dance when he had asked her for the fifth and, according to him, the final time, to marry him. “It may not be the modem Idea, sweetheart," he had urged as they stood in the lantern-hung balcony be­ tween dances, “but I’ve a queer notion that I I like to have you step from your f liber’s home into mine—ours— without the Intervening knocking up against the world so many girls think essential today." Barbara brought her thoughts back to the present. It might not be a bad idea to ask Jim’s advice In her dilemma. It really was one thing In Jim’s favor that he was so depehdable —always at hand when she wanted him. Streti liing out a slim arm, she detached the receiver of the telephone on the stand, gave the number, and.

In paying homage to the flag of our country we honor not merely a piece of bunting but those thinga for which the flag stands, liberty, justice, equality. The flag of the United States symbolizes the nation­ al ideals for which our fathers were willing to give their lives, and in our day their sons have proved that they too are ready to defend to the uttermost "Our great, free institu­ tions which are the hope of the home as well as the nation.” It is proposed this year to cele­ brate, in conjunction with Flag Day. June twelfth as Neighbors' Day to promote nation-wide neighborliness, and June thirteenth as Community Sundav to impress men and women of all faiths with the spiritualizing influence on the individual of unified neighborhood service. ■ Therefore, I, Albert E. Sleeper. Governor of the State of Michigan, do Issue this my Proclamation, and urgently request that Monday, the fourteenth day of June, 1920 be observed as Flag Day. I further suggest, in compliance with the request of the National Neighbors’ Day Committee, that Saturday, June twelfth and Sunday, June thirteenth be observed respectively as Neigh­ bors* Day and Community Sunday. On these three days let flags be displayed on beth public and private buildings. Let us honor the flag. Albert E. Sleeper. Governor. ' the expenses of its program for the past year and tor next year.

Everybody agrees that we must keep this fleet on the seas. If we fall back to pre-war conditions—when only 9 per cent of oar foreign trade was carried in American ships— We ahail be in the position of a department store whose goods are delivered In Its competitor’s wagons. Congress Is considering legislation which will perpetuate our war-built merchant marine. Until thia is done the ships we have should not be sold to face conditions which, prior to the war, resulted in the decline of our merchant marine to insignificance. Tills Committee calls attention to these facts because a right solution of our shipping problem Is vital to the future prosperity of shipbuilding, but equally vital to the safety and prosperity of lite nation.

Young men In some of our big cities are yearning for an opportuni­ ty to get onto the farms, and the press is advising such a course. The wild assinlnity and profligate spendthrlftery of the cities is palling upon them. They prefer the freedom and greater security of country lite, even if the hours are a little longer and the work a litUe harder. They have come to realize that their earnings in the city are eaten up in the profiteering prices now be­ ing charged tor everything they buy, both essentials and luxuries. They see nothing ahead of them but a ceaseless repetition of earning it today and spending it tomorrow. Having brains, they are beginning to employ them to advantage. And being but a little cog in a big wheel in the cities, they would mi­ grate to the country, where there is room and opportunity for all. A national campaign for depopulat­ ing the farms of the country is one of the prime requisites for a return to commercial stability.

Hastings for some time past and who mixed up with bad companions, and who has been for several months a probationer from circuit court, is in trouble again. She was in charge of Rev. Hawkins as her next friend, but of late has given the elder much trouble of mind, as she began to be out late evenings and he feared she was again falling into evil ways. Sunday of last week, she went to the fair grounds with Burdette Browne and his wife and spent part of the afternoon, and from there to church in the evening. After church they took her to the rooms of Ora Van Stolen, a single man, who claim­ ed he had some "good citer," and had a merry time. It is alleged thatMrs. Browne got jealous and the party broke up in a row. Browne and wife going home, Miss Allen remain- ing at the house with Van. Stolen, where she remained until about five o'clock in the morning. Then she went to Fall creek, at the crossing south of Grand street, took off her coat and hat and jumped into the creek. Mel Newton,- who saw her take off her hat and coat and disap­ pear down the bank of the creek, ran over there and found her in the creek, entirely immersed. He drag­ ged her out, in an unconscious con­ dition, called Dr. C. H. Barber, and they finally resuscitated her and took her to the home of the sheriff, where she' is being cared for and looked after. Van Stoten, who is an ex-service man and gets a liberal al­ lowance from the government, and who spends his time at almost any­ thing but work, was arrested and is awaiting a hearing on a serious charge, which he denies.

Critchett of­ fered her the opportunity of speak­ ing at the morning service of the M. E church. Her theme there was Christian Citizenship. Her opening statement, "Citizenship te religion ctvlcally expressed", waa followed by u masterly address in which she clearly proved that the exercise of citizenship is the duty of every loyal, patriotic voter. " "The W. C. T. U. always realized that formation was better than refor­ mation. hence paid much attention to the.proper training of children. The greatest training station is the home, where a good foundation for the citizen's future life work should be laid. It is because we have fail­ ed . in inculcating American Ideals and principles that there are those in this country today who would, take from our flag Its field of blue and its white stripes and' substitute all red. They would lutrench on American soil Bolshevism with- its Godless reign." “It is believed that with the en­ franchisement of 28,000,000 womeu to co-operate with good men politi­ cal betterment will soon be in evi­ dence.

Elliston Palmer, he lives at Frank Caley’s house, and Frank's folks wanted to varnish their stairs, and they figured it out that Elliston could take' two of the stain at one step, so they var­ nished every other step and let Un­ cle Elliston go up and down on the dry ones. That worked fine, so when the steps got dry. they varnish­ ed the remaining steps, after Uncle Elliston had retired for the night. Uncle Elliston got up bright and ear ly the next morning and started down stairs in his stocking feet, but he got mixed up on which steps were freshly varnished and got started on the wrong step. Ever step on a sheet of sticky fly paper? We did. And we know just what kind of a time Uncle Elliston had coming down those stains. After he had hit a couple of wet steps and got his socks all gummed up. it didn’t make any difference the rest of the way down, whether he was on wet steps or dry ones—he stuck fast-anyway, and the ripping noise be made pulling those socks loose from the steps awakened everybody in the house, and every fresh rip brought roans of laughter. He got down, finally, and not want­ ing to smear up all the rugs in the house, sat down and tried to take off the socks. And the varnish had soaked through and stuck the socks fast to the feet, and there was just simply one horrible time in the Caley household that morning, and Uncle Elliston missed about half his break­ fast and was late to work and the pair of clean socks he put on stuck to his feet all day and for all we know are sticking there yet. And the stairs all had to be sanded and rubbed and varnished all over again and the neighbors say Uncle Elliston goes to and from his room now via a ladder and a bedroom window.

SLOW DEATH GOLD MEDAL The Brawn That Made America Great Came from Flour The pioneer inen and women whose strength and stamma laid the rock-like foundations of America’s greatness were bread eaters. In wholesome bread made from good flour they obtained the nutrition that gave them strength to work and achieve. For nearly sixty years the particular women of Michigan have used Lily White 77ie Flour the Best Cooks Use' Look for the ROWENA trade-mark on the; sack In this flour they found the means to give their families the good main-stay. Save for milk, bread is the food of greatest nutrition. LILY WHITE is scientifically milled to retain all the nutrition values of the wheat Only the best wheat obtainable is used. It is cleaned four times, scoured three times and actually washed^efore going through the pro­ cesses of breaking and milling. Every atom of dirt and undesirable material are eliminated. This is why three generations have found bread made from LILY. WHITE FLOUR delicious, palatable, wholesome and healthful. Looks good, bakes to a perfection that makes “homey” women proud. The same with biscuits and pastry. LILY WHITE is guaranteed to give perfect satisfaction. VALLEY CmT MILLING CO.

We 1 J mean, did you ever figure out exactly your watch needs and then see if you were properly equipped? There are a dozen or more different Ingersolls— jeweled watches, radium dial watches for night use, and so on. For instance, if you have an expensive watch, you probably would choose a Radiolite for $3.50. If you haven’t a good serviceable watch, you’d be likely to buy a 7-jewel Reliance. The dealer will help you to select just the cne for you. “Ingersoll” has always meant the lowest-priced good timekeeper. Today, with present day.costs and the 1920 purchasing value of a dollar, $2.50 is the lowest price at which we can make a watch while keeping up the Ingersoll standard of quality. “Ingersoll” means “money's worth” whether it’s for the $2.50 Yankee or one of the Radiolhes that tell time in the dark, or for one of the jeweled watches.

Story of the National Convention at Chicago, ' the Struggle to Build a Platform and the Selection of a Ticket GOVERNOR COOLIDGE GIVEN SECOND PUCE Wood, Lowden and Johnson, Leaders in the Early Balloting, Eliminated at the Behest of a Senatorial Coterie and a Dark Horse Wins the Race. By EDWARD W. PICKARD. For.Preaident—WARREN G. HARD­ ING of Ohio. > For Vice President—CALVIN COOL­ IDGE of Massachusetts. There Is the ticket with which the Republicans hope and intend to regain possession of the national government next fall. For president, a man from the home state of many presidents, a statesman of long experience and solid reputa­ tion, who has been a member of the .United States senate since 1914, a member of the “old guard” who stands well with the Republicans who are In control of the senate. For vice president, the governor of the Day state, who was virtually un­ known to the nation at large until the Strike of Boston policemen and his vlgerous course In its suppression gave him a vast amount of publicity and made him the favorite son of Massa­ chusetts In the balloting for first place •n the ticket These gentlemen now stand before the electors of the country on a platform that Is so broad that it embraces nearly every topic and Issue of the day, though there are those who assert that In some places the planks are perilously thin. Its builders, how­ ever, maintain that there Is no danger of the candidates falling through the weak spots, and it may be that, with some Judicious straddling and side-step­ ping, this will prove true. Struggle Over the Platform. Seldom, if ever, has the choice of a presidential candidate been so close­ ly connected with the building of the platform—or it might be more exact to say the rejection of a candidate. For if Hiram Johnson and his sup­ porters could have compelled the adop­ tion of just the plank they demanded on the League of Nations Issue, the California senator, and he alone, could with consistency have consented to go before the people standing on the plat­ form. As it was, his threat to bolt the party caused a long deadlock In the de­ liberations of the committee on reso­ lutions and at last forced the adop­ tion of a plank based on the cabled Suggestion of Ellhu Root. That wise man had gone to Europe, but kept In dose touch with the doings In Chi­ cago and at the crucial moment his plan was presented to Johnson, Borah, McCormick and the other "irreconcilables” and accepted by them. The resolution as finally Incorpo­ rated Ln the platform, and swallowed by the convention, almost without a quiver, completely avoids any pledge to ratify the treaty of peace and the league covenant with or without reser­ vations, strongly indorses the action of the Republican senators In that re­ gard and promises that the party will work for some kind of international arrangement for the peaceful adjust­ ment of disputes between nations with­ out the sacrifice of American sov­ ereignty. Thus, as will be seen, the way la left open for an administration elected on this platform to do- almost anything It sees fit In this regard, ex­ cept to ratify a treaty and league cov­ enant such as President Wilson brought home from Paris. Wilson’s Policies Scored. For the rest, the platform, tn brief, scores President Wilson and the Dem­ ocratic administration for their unpre­ paredness for war and for the equally unprepared condition of the nation for the reception of peace. Denouncing tbo autocratic assumption of author­ ity by the president, the platform pledges the restoration of constitution­ al government The Republican con­ gress Is praised for Its efforts to cope with the problems caused by the presi­ dent's course. The farmers gained their requested support for extension of farm loans the right to engage In co-operative marketing and buying. The Industrial plank was the sub­ ject of much discussion. Some of the committee members. presumably speak­ ing for big business, favored a plank for the prevention of Mrtkes by law. Governor Allen and ethers wanted tho Esipsas Industrial court plan indorsed. And President Gwnpers traveled all the way to Chicago to tell the com- Balloting la Begun. terests of all government employees must be safeguarded by Impartial laws and tribunals.** The failure of the administration to retrench during the post-war period and the addition of thousands of swi­ vel chair warmers are derided and the party pledges Itself to a policy of economy and a carefully planned re­ adjustment. The need of an execu­ tive budget and condemnation of the presidential veto that defeated this financial reform was coupled with caustic characterization of ■ the man­ ner in which the president, according to the Republicans, clings to his war­ time powers. Revision of taxation also is demanded. Coming to the* great issue of the high cost of living, the committee ; drew UP ® declaration to the effect that *the the“ ’■' present* conditions are *** besult of an Inflation of the currency and of credit which the party pledges itself to correct by deflation, the pre­ vention of' unreasonable profits and the stimulation of private thrift by ! a chan«« ,u 1116 ,ncoine tax ,aw- T11* Party reaffirmed Its belief in the pre­ । tective,tariff, and pledged the enconr| ngement of an American merchant mathe application of the work­ *rlne u"“ by **' man's compensation act and the ex­ . eiuptlon from canal tolls of the mer­ chant marine. Profiteering was condemned, govern­ ment ownership of railways opposed, waterways encouraged and the regula­ tion of Industry and commerce prom- Mra. Warren G. Harding, Ised in order to prevent monopolies. Re­ sumption of trade relations with every nation with which America Is at peace was pledged. No changes were prom­ ised In the existing Immigration laws, but the bettering of naturalization laws was pledged, and the party went on record as favoring a policy by which American women who marry foreigners shall not lose their citizen­ ship. The government's huthority to dei>ort and exclude undesirable aliens was upheld, bat asurance was given that the rights of free speech, free press and free assembly will not be abridged. What They Said of Mexico. A large number of minor topics were handled In the platform, and then came the plank on Mexico. It dealt very severely with President Wilson’s policy and pledged that the party will not recognize any Mexican govern­ ment unles the lives and property of Americans there are protected. Ar menia came next In the list of planks. Deep sympathy was expressed for the Armenians, but the president was condemned for asking for authority to accept an Armenian mandate and It was added that the Republican party was unalterably against the acceptance of a mandto for any country in Eu­ rope or Asia. The men who fought in the great war were assured of the party's deep gratitude and were promised libera’ legislation for the care of the d’e abled. Infirm and dependents. . Though William Jennings Bryan was present throughout the entire life of the convention with the avewed pur bat the plank adopted recognizes the pose of persuading the Republicans justice of collective bargaining and to insert a “dry” plank in their plat- WARREN G. HARDING and the friends of the Irish "republic.” The former, under the leadership of the heads of the woman's party, were in Chicago in strength and during the entire week maintained around the Coliseum a line of pickets bearing banners that warned the Republicans that the women demanded the fran­ chise and would be satisfied with no less. A plank was inserted In t"he plat­ form urging Republican legislatures that have not acted to ratify the suf­ frage amendment, but this did not ap­ pease the ladles. In the Inst few mo­ ments of the last session they dropped from a balcony a great yellow banner on which was the statement that they wanted votes, not planks. As for the Irish, they, too, made a big demon­ stration in Chicago and De Valera, the president of their “republic” was there to deliver a speech before a great gai h­ ering. But something went wrong with the plans; and the plank which was tentatively shaped for the platform suited them so little that It was omit­ ted entirely and nothing put in Its place. There was a story that this resolution had been drawn up by Jus­ tice Cohalan of New York in the hope that it would be unsuitable and that the Democrats in San Francisco would be enabled tp take advantage of the circumstance. So. though considerable space has perforce been given to the platform of the Republican party, it is not because it must be considered as a great or a particularly strong pro­ nouncement. Lots of men and wom­ en In the party are far from pleased with many parts of It, and it must be confessed that the writer failed to find anyone who was crazed' with enthusi­ asm over it The story of tills convention would be intensely Interesting if one could tell all the truth about the secret In­ fluences that governed its actions. On the surface It was not a very excit­ ing affair, and the enthusiastic out­ bursts that characterized some of Its sessions appeared too often td be face­ tious. For five days the 14.000 dele­ gates, alternates, seat-holders and pos­ sessors of tickets that allowed them to stand about the few open places and hamper everyone else gathered faith­ fully in the Coliseum, prepared to howl with glee over expected contests and triumphs. But most of the time all they could do was to cheer for their favorite on occasion and try to keep up with the strong-lunged cheer and song leader who bad been brought up from Camp Devens. Bossed by Senators. From the first It was heralded as that most unusual tiling, an unbossed convention. Ail the experts asserted that the delegates were going to do as they pleased and that the old-time leadership was Impotent. For a day or two this seemed true, but then the senate coterie got Into action, and from that time to the end what was done was generally what it wished done. To start with Senator Lodge was selected ns temporary chairman, and was continued permanently tn the place, the entire temporary organize tlon being retained. On the all-im portant committee on resolutions there wefe numerous senators and ex-senatora, and they pretty much dictated the makeup of the platform. In the selection of the ticket their Influence was seen and felt In every move and every shift of votes, dear down to the moment when Senator Harding re­ ceived the ballots that made him the convention's choice. All this time the greatest of the old-time party bosses still alive. Senator Boles Penrose, lay on a sick bed In his Philadelphia home. But a direct telephone wire was run Into that room and there was scarcely an hour of the day or night when he was not In communication with his friend, John T. King. He knew all timely decision of the Supreme court that was going on. and It is fair to pUcit declaration. beforehand that It was going to go on. willed that it should happen. This Is s strike against CALVIN COOLIDGE victory Ln November. But the fact cannot be hllnked that some emlment Democrats who attended the conven­ tion went away with grins of satisfac­ tion decorating their faces. Lodge Was Too Scholarly. To go back to the beginning again, something must be said of the keynote addrews by Chairman Lodge. It was one of the most scholarly efforts of its kind, and the great mass of the dele­ gates. to say nothing of the audience, utterly failed to comprehend IL The senator did not once descend to the level of most of his hearers, and con­ sequently he failed to arouse any great measure of enthusiasm. It was noticeable that this address, as well as every other speech and the platfonn as well, devoted Its denunci­ atory passages not to the Democratic party, as Is usually the cane, but to President Wilson. It was always his acts and his policies that were con­ demned—and the language used In dealing with him was scorching. Of course, the reason for this is that, from the view-point of the Republicans. Mr. Wilson has beet: the Democratic party for the last seven years. The first day found three candidates in the forefront of the race for the nomination, and while the prelimi­ naries were completed their workers were straining every nerve to have them make the best possible show on the first ballot These men were Gov­ ernor Lowden of Illinois, General' Leonard Wood, and Senator Hiram Johnson of California. From their elaborate headquarters In the hotels swarms of men and women flocked to the Coliseum with banners and but­ tons and literature. Each of them was certain of victory—for public con­ sumption—but each of them knew In his heart that he could not win If the senatorial bosses had their way. All the rest of the possible candidates really ranked as dark horses. They included Herbert Hoover, Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia university, Gov. Calvin Coolidge of Massachusetts, Senator Poindexter of Washington, Senator Howard Sutherland of West Virginia. Governor Sproul of Pennsyl­ vania. Senator Philander Kqox of Pennsylvania and Senator La Follette of Wisconsin. A long enough list in all conscience. From these dark horses, it was predicted, would emerge the winner, and the prophecy was ful­ filled. Routine Work, Then Oratory. It required three days to get through wtih the preliminary work of the gath­ ering and to have the platfonn built, read and adopted. The latter took place on Thursday. As has been said, the resolutions met with almost unani­ mous approval. A young man from Milwaukee was the only dissenting member of the committee and he pre­ sented a minority report that embodied many of the policies advocated by La Follette. The audience did not want to hear him and he took advantage of their Impatience to try to place him­ self Ln the position of a martyr, but Chairman Lodge cleverly forestalled this, and the minortiy report was speedily dumped Into the waste basket. Friday was the day of oratory. Men who thought tlremselves eloquent and others who really were eloquent mount­ ed the speaker's platfonn In procession throughout most of the day to place before the convention the names and qualifications of the candidate* In many cases women were among those who seconded the nominations, and usually they acquitted themselves much more to the satisfaction of their hearers than did the men, for they were brief, snappy and graceful of address. I On the roll call of states Arizona yielded to Kansas, and Governor Hen­ ry J. Allen stepped up to nominate Genera] Wood. Though obviously nervous and not quite adequate of voice, be did his excellent subject full ustice, setting forth specially the fine record the general had made in Cuba and the Philippine*, and his pre­ "We neard from him no platitudes about a million men springing to arms over night,” cried Allen, and everyone strained for a look at Mr. Bryan, who sat In th? press stand close to the speaker. The governor went on to describe Wood's skillful training of an army and bls unselfish and uncomplaining devotion to duty when he was kept from going to Europe in command of the boys whom he had taught how to, fight and conquer. He also recounted the general's success In quelling labor and race disturbances within the last year or so, and dwelt on bls popular­ ity with the very men, whom he had been sent to quiet. Wood’s Feathery Ovation. As the governor ceased speaking a storm of applause broke out, and an­ other storm of red and green feathers fell from the rafters all over the house. The -Wood delegates marched through the aisles, led by •Beveridge of Indiana and Frank Hitchcock, and the tumult continued for half an hour. *'lf Wood drops feathers, I suppose Johnson will drop light wines and beers from the rafters,” laughed Mr. Bryan, and someone said: "Get your cup ready then, William.” The demonstration was calmed at last—really It did not seem very spon­ taneous—and after Frank Knox of New Hampshire had made a seconding speech, the first of the convention's woman orators appeared. She was Mrs. Corinne Roosevelt Robinson of New York, sister of the late Colonel RoosevelL With much of the colonel's fire and vim, she told why Leonard Wood should be the next president, and she told It so well that prolonged ap­ plause rewarded her efforts. Governor Lowden's turn came next, and the honor of presenting his name was entrusted to Congressman Rodenberg of Illinois, a big man with a big voice who made an old-fashioned speech that hit the audience In the right way. He, too, had an excellent subject, whose cause was handicapped only by tire revelations of excessive expenditures brought out by the sen­ ate committee at the instigation of Johnson and his friends. Lowden's ovation outlasted that for Wood, but was no more epthusiastic. it was featured by a display of bon□ers and portraits of the candidate and by a pretty girl in a cerise sweat­ er who was carried on men's shoulders it the head of the panders. Lowden, too, had a woman among his second­ ers, Mrs. Fletcher Dobyns of Chicago, 1 clever politician and good speaker. Then Governor Morrow of Kentucky :old why the Republicans of his state oved- Lowden and wanted him for president Johnson’s Sponsor a Failure, Charles S. Wheeler of San Francisco tad been deputed to place Senator Johnson in nomination, and much was txpected of him, because a reputation .'or fiery eloquence had preceded him. 3ut, though his address was smooth ind his voice pleasing, he scored the worst failure of the entire convention. He evoked some cheering from the gal­ leries by a denunciation of the League it Nations, but soon after made the gross mistake of twitting the reservallonlsts on having been worsted by Johnson Ln the committee on resolu­ tions. The delegates did not relish that* nor did most of the others in the hall. Then he made an unfortu­ nate allusion to the campaign expendi­ ture revelations, and as those had hit most of the candidates, their friends resented it with boos and hisses. Mr. Wheeler smilingly waited for the row to cease, and proceeded to finish an address that was fully twice as long as it should have been. His poor per­ formance cast a wet blanket on the planned demonstration, and the Os’!foenla delegates, accompanied by a few others, marched rather sadly through ' The powers that were decreed that several ballots should be taken that day before adjournment, and In an ex­ cited hush the call of the states was begun. The hush did not last, how­ ever, for every Considerable vote for any one aspirant was greeted with ths cheers of his friends. As had been foretold. Wood led on the first, ballot with 287 ft votes* Lowden was second with 211ft, and Johnson gathered in 133ft. The.oth­ ers In general wereaccorded the votes of their home states and a few more. Of the Wisconsin delegation 24 voted for La Follette; and It may as well be recorded here that those 24 dele­ gates kept voting for La Follette. to the bitter end. And every time th« announcement was greeted with groans and hisses from the galleries. In the following three ballots Wood climbed to 814ft, which the wise oned said was about bls maximum strengih. Lowden also Increased his vote, going up to 289, while Johnson reached 140ft. The votes for the dark horses did not vary to any great ex-, tent though Butler lost steadily and^ Pritchard soon dropped out entirely. By this time everyone was ready for a rest and the convention adjourned to Saturday morning. The Break to Harding. " The crowd filled the Coliseum t suffocation on what was destined t<J be the final day of the convention, for It was felt that the conferences of the preceding night would be fruitful. The senatorial coterie hed been in ses­ sion many hours and the word was passed around that they had picked on Harding as the nominee. In the early ballots of Saturday theOhloaa did not gain rapidly, and all were waiting for the moment when the big delegations from New York, Pennsyl­ vania and Massachusetts would find the time ripe for a break. The men from the Keystone state had been voting almost solidly for Sproul, for the bosses were not decided between him and Harding. And the New Yorkers really did not know to whom to throw their strength. Johnson's vote dwindled gradually, and then the Lowden column suddenly began to go Co pieces. He was really the victim of the shift, for the Wood delegations stood by the general almost to the last moment. On the ninth ballot It was seen that Harding could be “put across,' so the uncer­ tain ones climbed Into the band wag­ on on the tenth and gave the Ohio senator a grand total of 674ft, which was 181ft more than necessary to nom­ inate. The hubbub was deafening and after Pennsylvania put 60 votes in the Hard­ ing column the clerks could scarcely complete the roll call. At Its finish the usual motion to make the cholco unanimous was made, but those 24 La Follette men from Wisconsin voted In the negative and marred the lovo feast Coolidge Gets Second Place. There still remained the task o selecting a vice presidential candl date. Senator Lenroot of Wisconsin, Governor Allen of Kansas, Governor Coolidge of Massachusetts and CoL Harry Anderson of Virginia were placed In nomination and the roll of the states was called. Lenroot re­ ceived a good vote, but Coolidge was the evident favorite and long before the roll was completed bls nomination was assured. The 24 La Follette men voted for Senator Gronna. With some difficulty Chairman Ledge, whose voice was gone, managed to bold the delegates together long enough to pass tlie usual resolutions of thanks to the officials of the convention and to the city of Chicago, and then tbo republican convention of 1920 camo to an end. Convention Well Handled. The management of the convention hall really deserved thanks, for the seating, the policing and the othe arrangements were the best ever see in such gatherings. The Coliseum was handsomely decorated and well lighted and the comfort of the delegates and guests was as well looked after as could be expected. Of course the usual swarm of sergeants at arms was pres­ ent, clogging up the aisles and ret­ ting In the way of the workers^ bat that Is Inevitable, for the dlstribstiefi of those badges Is a perquisite ef local Republicans.

Burglars entered the home of Ben Becel ot Kalamo Tuesday night, chloroformed the Inmates, and went through the house very thoroughly, winding up by helping themselves to a, square meal out of the kitchen cupboard. John Franck, travelling for Eugene Cook, who was spending the night there, lost a gold watch and $2.95 in money, but retained a purse containing $180.00, which Frank had put under the feather­ bed. Our school closed with appropriate exercises yesterday. The scholars presented Mrs. A. J. Beebe with a handsome picture.

In a few days, as provided by the new dog law, I will be given the list of dog owners in Barry county, who have not paid their dog tax. Under tbe law, an officer who fails or re­ fuses to do his duty as required by the law, is subject to a fine of $100 in each case. I am not going to take the chances of such fines, for my sup­ ply of $100 bills is limited; but I will aerve all papers placed in my hands, which In this case will be war­ rants. Several notices and warnings to dog owners have been published, and some have responded by paying their dog taxes to the county treasurer. This job of enforcing the new dog law is a very undesirable one, but I have no chof6e In the matter. I must do my duty under the law, as my oath of office requires. There Is no way of dodging if I wanted to. My deputies and myself will start serving warrants under the dog law Tuesday, July 6. A list of townships will be put ln a hat, and the last one drawn will be where we start. Un­ less every Barry county owner of a dog shall have paid his dog tax to the county treasurer before July 6, he must expect a visit from some member of the sheriff’s force. The added expense will not make that visit pleasant or profitable for the dog owner. This Is fair warning to pay the tax and save trouble i<fd costs. , Walter H. Burd. Sheriff.

Bradley was with us and preached in the morning on the subject: "God's protection to the Saints.” It was a service of edification. Now we are looking for­ ward to the prayermeeting evening. There is such a sweet spirit of fellow­ ship in these services that we are all glad to be present. The evening is Thursday; the hour is 7.30. The pastor and wife will be present and have charge of the services, both morning and evening next Sunday, then we are to be away in special meetings in the northern part of the state.

Dear Sir: The validity of the law govering base ball and other amusements on Sunday, having been called in. ques­ tion by some of those who Indulge in the game, I have thought it well to copy out the part of the section bearing upon the matter so that the general public may be Informed ' ' * of* tbe facta of the case. It reads as follows: "No person shall • • __ ,_____ at or take part in any sport, game or play, on the first day of the week • • • ’And every person so offend­ ing shall be punished by fine not ex­ ceeding ten dollars for each offense.” From the Compiled Laws of Michi­ gan, 1915, Chapter 146, Section 7764. Originally enacted In 1846, this Act was revised and re-enacted in 1897 and also in 1915, so It is neither obsolete nor Invalid. 345 bona-fide voters, which repre­ sent a large percentage of the voting population, endorsed the resolution published In your issue of June 17. At a conference with the officials of the ball team, when the above facts and endorsements were pre­ sented to them, we were met with an absolute refusal. In the words: "Go ahead and see what you can do!" As a law-abiding citizen I appeal to the members of the team and tbe public in general to take their stand for true patriotism and respect for FLOOR COVERINGS Suitable for Living Rooms and Bedrooms The many uaea to which Fibereed Ruga may be put mike them almost indispensable in any home.

Fireproof air­ planes and fireproof suits for the aviators is the invention ot P. IL Bradley. This shows the famous stage star, Ann Pennington, who risked her beauty in a fire test at Atlantic City, N.

That amount, deposited with the state treasurer, is a bond that we will execute your will properly. Name any individual executor, and the law forces him to give a bond, the cost of which must berpaid by your estate.

For generations the fair women of the “Wolverine State” have been using Lily White The Floar the Beet Cooks Ute” Look for the ROWENA trade-mark on the sack You can’t fool women c flour. Those who are experienced know the flour that wins for them the best results. The mills that produce LILY WHITE FLOUR have for nearly sixty years taken the same pride in their flour as have the women who used it so successfully. Flour like LILY WHITE can only be made from the choicest wheat, conscientiously handled from raw material to finished product It is cleaned, scoured and washed several times before being broken and milled. Far more dirt, chaff and undesirable materials are eliminated than expert flour users realize. That is why the flour is of such good color, so nutritious and wholesome.

No one any longer questions the worth of the automobile — or begrudges any legitimate ex­ pense connected with it M But millions of car owners are rebelling at the idea that running an automobile has got to mean waste. Every now and then you hear a neighbor complain that “he doesn’t seem to have much luck with tires.” Send him to us. The minute a man begins to question the service his tires are giving him, he’s ready to listen to reason. Our business is built on the principle that the only way to get better tire service is to get better tires to start with. Select your tires ac­ cording to the roads they have to travel: In sandy or hilly coun­ try, wherever the going is apt to be heavy—The < U.S. Nobby. For ordinary country roads—The U. S. Chain or Usco. For front wheels—The U. S. Plain. For best results— everywhere—U. S. Royal Cords. That’s why we have taken the representa­ tion for U. S. Tires. U. S. Tires have a reputation for quality. Built up through years of creating bettei tires. Such as the straight side automobile tire, the pneumatic truck tire Ibis not by chance that U. S. Tires are made by the oldest and largest rubber concern in the world. We are proud to represent U. S. Tires in this community. C. HURD Estate of Livingston McKinnls, de­ _OURT HOUSE NEWS. ceased.

April 22. l’.«0. It did occur to her that It was not strictly' accessary to date'* note to one’s own father informing hlra of cu>e‘» intended elopement when one purposes to depart from the an­ cestral roof-tree that very day. and the enlightening communication was bound to be found soon after. But It was down, and time was precious. Her plane was waiting The head mechanician of the Flarity. hangar had finished overhauling It not an hour ago. assuring Mary that, with her drtv­ tag. he would buck It to outfly any machine her father owned. Mary had answered, “Keep mum on that score to dad. Oscar.” nt rhe same time slipping him a trifling tip of fifty. For Mary was under no delusions as to what her father’s attitude might be toward this step she was about to take. His wealth was great, his social position unquestioned. He had always been kind to her nnd she loved him. It was Only a matteFof loving Adrion Longfellows more—much more. So well she was entirely willing to give up all the luxury to which she had been born, to live in poverty nnd social ostracism with the man of her choice. With a sigh at the unpreventable perversities of life, Mary walked out of tire Flarity mansion, stepped into her plane and flew straight for the college town where Adrian, unfor­ tunate inheritor of his father's tem­ perament, and nqthing else, drew his meager salary ... ; . -~-— ~'k.arttlKWts^aTflng at the appointed spot. It was his unlikeness to the young men of her own set that had attracted Mary in the first place. They were big and strong; Adrion was un­ dersized. They talked to her qnly of sport, social matters and money; how much they earned in how few hours a day. Adrion could talk well on a hundred subjects: books and flowers, music and the great nutdoors. But this man chosen from outside her own world by Mary to be her hus­ band possessed a fine sense of humor. He felt it his duty to inquire for th® last time whether she fully realized what she was giving up for his sake. “My dear," he questioned, "have you thought that we won't be able to keep this?" placing his hand on the delicate wings of the artificial bird which bore them so swiftly alofL "My salary couldn’t stand the hangar fee. to say nothing of the upkeep. I did hope we might have one of the four-hour serv­ ants, but alas," Adrion paused to sigh, "I read odly this morning that they are striking for more pay and fewer working hours." Just nt that moment Mary turned into a much traveled air-lane and carefully guided her plane in and out among the traffic. “Don’t worry, Ad­ rion ; my grandmother did her own housework when she was first mar­ ried; and what one woman has done, another can. The only thing that bothers me now is that something may happen to delay us and give father a way. She’s doing two hundred milek gp hour now and I’ll keep her there till we get out of fTie crowd} After that the sky Is the limit." Mr. Flarity arrived home that even­ ing during an interval between the departure of the fourth relay of serv­ ants and the arrival of the fifth. It was when the latter had been on duty an hour that one of the maids brought Mary's note to him. She had discovered it while preparing Mary’s room for the nlghL What he read sent Mr. Flarity flying —literally. He took nis fastest plane and even had the forethought to carry along two bags of gold with which to bribe the air-traffic cops or pay hnes, as the need might be. Mary’s plane was distinctive, it bore her private em­ blem. Its course was not hard to trace, but the gold bag was nearly depleted when Mr. Flarity alighted in front of a roadside inn somewhere in tae north­ ern Alaska. “No” the clerk Inform*. <1 him, “there is nobody by the name *»f Flarity registered here. Yes; there Is a Mr. Longfellow—and a Mrs.” Mary was not one bit surprised when her father was announced, nnd remarked to the husband of her choice that they had best have him up and get it over with. “I know just whnt fee wili say, Adrion dear/ and I know he won’t rest till be dues say it. Let’s be kind to him and give him his chance eow.” Mr. Flarlty’s face was purple with’ anger added to K-h living. “How dare yon—you—shrimphe bellowed, as soon as he faced the guilty pair. "You little whlppcrsnapper son of a common ordinary college president, and noth­ ing but an humble professor youraelf, to entice my daughter—the daughter of a master plumtier, before him?

Anyway, you ought to by this time. That’s Frank Cramer, called "Banty" for short, because he is short, and "Parson” for long, and all sorts of names by, other people. Know what Cramer has done now? Went and bought a truck, to take some of the heavy work off his team. Bought the truck at Freeport, the mau brought it to Hastings, and Cramer drove it home from Hastings and parked it in the yard, all right aud fine. Next day took it out to exer­ cise it and keep its legs from getting "stocky", and got along just fine until he got back home, when he for­ got how to stop it. It started to climb the woodpile, but Banty stuck to It, over the woodpile, over the dog, which gave a long low moan as he expired, crushed the ash can. which gave forth a hollow sound when he struck It and a fiat sound when he left it. over the tomato vines, through the potato patch, through the grape arbor, twice around the bouse and finally wound I up against the barn, which refused j to move when the truck hit it, so the truck stopped.

There was no particular rea­ son to watch the skies, because the planets were on the-other side of the earth nnd would not be visible to him until shortly before sunup. Gordon had a book on economics before him. However, he did not read long. Dreams of Helen Hardwell in­ terfered. He heard the door creak and looked toward It, to see Helen standing there, smiling.

I can find a partner." That was the last time they had been together. Helen at once began weaving her‘charms about the rich young men resorting at the hotel, and soon site had nearly as many satellites as Saturn, which boasts of eight in addition to its rings. Gordon wondered If Helen missed the telescope, at which she had sat many an evening, listening to his dis- , J j 24 'Please Don’t Be Angry With Me.* courses on the universe. Surely she must, he decided, for site had display­ ed enthusiasm over astronomy. If both of them had not possessed more than their share of stubborness, it is likely they would have effected a re­ conciliation; that Is. before the wealthy satellites began exerting their influence. Early in December Gordon became interested in a celestial phenomenon. Six of the planets were maneuvering In their orbits so they would be align­ ed on the same side of the sun. By astronomical and arithmetical deduc­ tions Gordon figured that on December 17 Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune would form a conjunc­ tion, while far on the other side of the sun Uranus would hold forth, an outcast Of at b tangent from the lined-up planets would be the earth. Gordon wa" not the only astronomer waiting for the conjunction. In fact some of them predicted storms, esrthqnakes and other phenomena on the earth due to the strong gravtutlve pull to which the sun and earth would be subjected. These predictions were exaggerated by excitable persons until It became generally known that the end of the world was scheduled for December 17.

They don’t know anything except dancing and bridge, clothes and golf and tennis, and how to spend money they never earned. Tom Thatcher didn’t even know the earth revolves around the sun until I told him. Fred Beakman thought the stars were fivepointed, until I told him they are spheres. Sam Adams thought the earth was the biggest thing in the uni­ verse except the sun, until I explained that the planet Jupiter Is more than a thousand times larger.” Gordon smiled again, whimsically. ’Tom Thatcher Is- Mars.” he said. "Sam Adams is Venus; and Isn’t he some Venus? I've named all your satellites after planets.” She flushed. “I’m through with satellites?* she told him. Tm going to be like Venus and Mercury—without any moons. But how about yourself, Gordon? /Haven’t you a planetary name?” Tm Uranus, because I'm all alone on the other side of the sun. In the present arrangement of things. Uranus is an outcast from the solar system, and Pm an outcast from you." . “Gordon," she said suddenly^ “would It be very improper for me to stay here tonight and have a reserved seat at the big performance In the sky? Yon can help me to catch up on my lessons about the stars, and early in the morning we cun see the planets to­ gether. I'm not going back to the hotel." At the hotel the anxious crowd wait­ ed In vain for their emissary, while she sat at the telescope the whole night through. In the morning she looked with awe as Jupiter, blue-white, burst into flames in the sky, while Saturn took on a dull orange hue and Mara sparkled red. Down in the sky, near the crescent moon, Venus appeared, twice the size of an ordinary star, shining with an Intense white light that rivaled Luna's, and close to the horizon little Mercury blinked. The stars began to fade as the sun's rays shot over the horizon. Only Jupiter and Venus and the moon con­ tinued to shine. “Oh, It’s all so wonderful,” Helen breathed, as tired from her longVvigil, she turned from the telescope. “You may be Uranus, an outcast," she whispered, "but you’rq all ths world to me." She nestled her head against Gor don. Her arms encircled his neck. A VISITOR By BARBARA WOOD. “Who’s there?” Polly Anderson sat up In bed with a start. Her breatii came fast and her heart beat like a‘little trip hammer. “Who’s there?” she called again; this time her voice was steadier. But there was no answer. _ Slowly, oh. so slowly, Polly slipped two pink little feet out from under the covers, and without taking her eyes from the door she felt around on the floor for her slippers. After a moment or two of vain searching she dropped her eyes to look for them. As she looked away the door opened swiftly and noiselessly and someone, or something, was In the room. But Polly was intent upon finding the slip­ pers which had so mysteriously disap­ peared. Her curly head and bare, round arms were half way under the bed and she was saying to herself: “Why didn’t I snap on that light?” Now Miss Polly Beckwith Anderson was not in the least a nervous or timid young lady. She was what her gentle­ men acquaintances called “a sport through and through." and she could recall many a delightful day spent "breaking" one of her father’s-'colts or at target practice with her two brothers. But when she heard her name spoken In a hoarse whisper by a man in her own room at two o’clock in the morning her heart stood still Zor the spfice of a quickly drawn breath. First, two shoulders clad tn pink silk, then two arms, soft and white, and last a head and face hidden from view by a dark mass of curls made their way slowly and fearfully out from their recent hiding plqce. With a toss of her head she threw her hair over her shoulders and lifted wide, frightened eyes to look Into the face above her. In^kn Instant she was on her fleet, and her eyes, even in the dark, gleamed with anger. "Robert Anderson, what do you mean by frightening me like this,? An- Bob shook with suppressed laughter as he put his finger to his lipa. “But where have you been, and why did you come in here and scare me half tb pieces?" Polly asked, noticing that he was still wearing his daytime attire. “Listen here, Polly-o,"—her brother was serious now and was fumbling tn Ugly Charmers, his inside coat pocket—“I saw Dave masculine beauty or the lack of tonight and he asked me to give you it a factor of any weight whatsoever this."

But here’s your note; It’s time for me to retire.” Polly took the note and reached up to kiss her big-brother good night “Oh, Bobby, Bobby,” she whispered, “I love him so much, and you under-1 stand so well! If only father were a j little more like you." Bob stroked her hair. "Never mind, Polly-o," he said gen- : tly, “he’ll be all right after It’s over. : It's just that he hates to lose his only ' daughter." When Bob wns gone Polly opened the note and her fingers were trem­ bling a little as she read It She had not snapped on the light until Bob left, and when she did it showed dark, tired ' rings under her beautiful, heavily1 fringed eyes. There was a sad little | droop to her sweet lips. And yet she ; was happier than she had ever been.! for she was going to David. Three I long years they had waited for her | father to give Ji!« permission to their marriage, and at last Polly had told ! David that it would be wrong to wait any longer. And now she held David's answer in her hand. Through her tears she read: “Come, dear heart. I am waiting, and everything is ready for the mistress of our home," There was more, but the •word "come" was all that really mat­ tered. “Yes, David, I art coming." she whis­ pered, and with a little sub she threw her head down on her arms and cried. “Daddy, daddy, I must.” For three days Bert Anderson fussed and fumed because his daughter was not there to wait on him; he always did when she went away to visit At last there came a day when Mr. Anderson received a letter written in Polly’s own hand. When he finished reading his face flushed with anger. "Thunderatlon!" he blurted qjit. Then very slowly he began to review the years since Polly’s mother had died. Always It was Polly who com­ forted him; Polly who made him laugh; Polly whose girlish loveliness had made him so proud. When at last he remembered how Polly’s face bad grown sad the last few years, and why, he dropped his head Into his hands and whispered: “My little daughter, I’ve been a fool; and at last I know It’ Can you forgive me, dear child?" Polly had asked forgiveness first, but it was she who gave It at last (Copyright, IMS, McClure Newspaper Byndtcatej Feared Burial Alive. Hans Andersen and Harriet Ma* WISDOM WHISPERS.

July 4, Mr. Glasgow spoke of our debt of national gratitude to France anti how in the recent World War this coun­ try had had an opportunity to repay her for colonial aid in the dark days of the Revolution.

He says the man who is too busy to give any time and attention to politics may come to the point that he won’t have any business to attend to; in other words nothing is greater in our republic than the government and every individual American owes it to himself to give Republican Candidate for <<>ngrcs>.

It is a product of the choicest blend of wheat grown in America. This gives just the right balance. The milling processes are scientific, exact. No mill in the world is better equipped. In few are the methods so careful and so conscientious. Look for the ROWENA trade-mark on the sack Has Good Volume and Color The wheat used in LILY WHITE has just the right balance. It is neither too hard nor too soft This is important. Too much strength WQuld not bake light tender bread and, at the same time, flavory biscuits and pastry, but by blending we produce a flour that has every­ thing — flavor, color, texture, and uniformity of granulation. Repeatedly Cleaned—Milled to Perfection Even the most experienced women whq bake would be surprised if they knew how much dirt and substances ces unusable in high-grade iflour are separated from the wheat grains used, in LILY WHITE. All our wheat is cleaned four times, scoured three times and thoroughly washed before going onto the rolls for the first break. We use the “six-break” system. ■ Only the choicest heart of ihe wheat finally becomes LILY WHITE FLOUR. You See the Quality in Your Baking The color, texture and uniformity of LILY WHITE show in everything you bake from it Bread, rolls, biscuits, cake and pie-crust all reflect the quality of the wheat, the care in milling. In lightness, in flavor, in nourishment, you get in this flour more for your money. You get per­ fect results —not once, but always.

Capital Mock JAMES M. COX FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT. GOV. COX NAMED BY DEMOCRATS AS THEIR CHOICE FOR PRESIDENCY Selection Is Made After Eight Days of Most Strenuous Political Battling—Second Place Goes to Franklin D. Roosevelt By WRIGHT A. PATTERSON. For President: JAMES M. COX, of Ohio. For Vice President: F. D. ROOSEVELT, of New York. Convention Hall, San Francisco, July 6.—After eight days of the most strenouous political battling any party has seen In many years, the Demo­ cratic gathering at 2:45 Tuesday morning of the second week named James M. Cox of Ohio for president and on Tuesday afternoon ' named Franklin D. Roosevelt for vice presl-; denL The nomination of Governor Cox was made on the forty-fourth ballot, and after a nlgnt of the most intense excitement. Beginning of Break. When the convention convened on Monday morning, after a fruitless pe­ riod of balloting on Friday night and late Into the night of Saturday, It seemed to ue In a deadlock, out of which no one of the three leading can­ didates could possibly be picked us a winner. This condition continued throughout the day. und until ufter a recess taken at 5:30 until 8:30. No evidence of uuy serious break could be found In the lines of any of the three lending candidates until af­ ter the thirty-eighth ballot, when Con­ gressman Carlin announced the with­ drawal of Attorney General Palmer and the release of his Instructed dele­ gates. On the uext ballots the Peuusy I van ia delegation continued to vote almost solidly for Palmer, but after that they broke, the majority going to McAdoo. On the forty-first ballot the McAdoo forces began to break, and be­ fore the forty-fourth ballot was com­ pleted it was evident that Governor Cox had won, und a motion to make the nomination unanimous was carried with a shout. ■ Real Democratic Convention. It was a real convent ion, and more especially a real Democratic coqveutlon, that adjourned on Tuesday after­ noon. It was a convention that was run by the 1,093 delegates and an equal number of alternates. It was leaderless, und. to fact, if it may be said to have bad a fault al all It was this lack of leadership that for many weary hours made it seem Impossible for the necessary two-thirda to reach an agreement an the choice of a can­ didate. During these hours and days there were a number of men who were quite willing to assume leadership, but no one of them, or no group of them, could find a sufficient number of fol­ lowers to make their leadership effec­ tive. The delegates insisted that they, and not any self-appointed group of leaders, represented the rank and file of the Democratic party, and each del­ egate insisted on voting the way he believed, or professed to believe, his people at home wished him to vote, regardless of any plea for a compro­ mise, and regardless of the use of ev­ ery expedient known to political strategy to Influence him. Opening Was Featureless. The opening ot the great gathering WM as featureieea, as all such open|pgs are. There was an air of ex­ pectancy to the groat audience, for the Biajority of whom this was, their first experience in a polities! convention of such magnitude. The audience had looked for a fight starting with the fall of Vice Chairman Kremer's gavel, but they were r»-warde<l with nothing more exciting than tne masterful key­ note address of Homer Cummings. In which he outlined the issues on which people for support This address was devoted almost exclusively to the League of Nation*, and its point was a demand for rarifb-stion without dal wwfmsi- on the teriut that - ously change the Intent of the docu­ ment A roll call followed for the appoint­ ment of the usual convention commit­ tees and the first session was over. For the nextAwo days the real activi­ ties of the great gathering were trans­ ferred to the meeting rooms of the committee*. The committee on cre­ dentials confirmed the action of the national committee to seating the Pal­ mer delegation from Georgia and In unseating Senator Reed of Missouri. It had been anticipated that both of these contests would be taken to the floor of the convention, but with the exception of entering a protest on the action on Senator Reed the contests provided no entertainment for the au­ dience. McAdoo Nominated. The event of the nominating ses­ sions was the presentation of the name of Mr. McAdoo. It was known that Mr. McAdoo bad insisted thaI his name be not presented to the convention, and had repeated this wish by tele­ graph on Tuesday to Rev. Burris Jen­ kins of Kansas City. McAdoo dele­ gates were Insistent that the name of their favorite be presented regardless of his instructions, but Frank R. Wil­ son, a former Iowa newspaper man. the leader of the McAdoo forces, was Xlly Insistent that Hie wishes of Mc> be complied with. In the end Wil­ son consented to an informal presenta­ tion in which It should be stated It was without the consent of the former secretary, and without any elabora­ tion of his qualifications for the of­ fice. Mr. Jenkins said that while Mr. McAdoo was . not seeking the nomina­ tion. be proposed that democracy draft him for the good of the nation. Fight on Platform. The platform committee had a long, stubborn fight on Its bands In an ef­ fort to satisfy many opposing ele­ ments. Senator Glass, as chairman of the resolutions committee, repre­ sented the administration viewpoint of the League of Nations especially, and proj>osed to piA through the Vir­ ginia plank. This was acceptable to practically all delegates except Mr. Bryan and some of bls followers who could not see the possibility of ratifi­ cation without radical reservations. Other planks that caused hours of dis­ cussion referred to the''liquor ques­ tion. to Ireland, to labor and two or three other things. In the end the committee had io take several ques tlons to the floor of the convention, much to the gratification of the audi­ ence. and this resulted In another ora­ torical display throughout all of the long Friday session. Senator Glass presented the major­ ity report of the platform committee. Mr. Bryan preseutetl a minority re­ port containing a strong dry plank with a declaration for a. strict en­ forcement of the Volstead act; a plank calling for an amendment to the Constitution giving a senate ma­ jority power to ratify a treaty and Indorsing a ratification of the league covenant with whatever reservations pvoval; a plank od profiteering that the cost and sale price be shown on a’.l articles of merchandise, and a plank providing for the establishment of a national bulletin for the dissemina­ tion of information os all Important national questions of the day. open to all political parties and through which all candidates for office on a national ticket wotfid be privileged to QBaMflcatlona Mr. Bryan. by roquart, offered another minority report on The Cock ran wet plank fared baft little better. The gifted orator trocar New York used all of his great abUM* In presenting his. side of the qnesttoot btft without effect. When the roll west called the delegaiinus from.the largw cities, and from -two or three of lb» distinctly wet states, were with him to the extent of 356 voles, nearly 20* ’ less than the needed majority. The minority report on Ireland pro­ vided for s promise of recognition for the Irish republic, as Ireland's sup­ porters had not been satisfied witM merely no expression of sympathy and the referring of their demand* te the League of Nations. The minority report was presented by Delegate Doheny of-California. It had the unite* support of the Irish delegates, bat went down to defeat by a vote of to 670. While the platform, as adopted, mW be said to represent a victory for tho administration forces as led by Sensetor Glass, It was not adopted withooft giving all a chance to secure sudb changes as a majority of the del*gates favored on the liquor questiom, Mr. Bryan pointed out after the ses­ sion that the combined vote for hia dry plank and the Cockran wet plank did not represent a majority of tl** delegates, which was an evidence tn him that the party .was determine* to entirely Ignore the subject One Great Feature. Much as the great audience hadt appreciated the oratorical displays an*the keen competition that had marke* the efforts to secure party endorse­ ment for opposing Ideas, the one greet feature of the national show for whidk all had waited was the balloting e®. the candidates for the presidential nomination, and when Chairman liohinson of Arkansas announced the next order of business as the roll call affi the states, immediately after th* adoption of the platform, he warn greeted with a mighty roar. First Ballot On the first ballot on Friday night the result was McAdoo 266, Palmer 256, Cox 134, Governor Smith IBSt Owen 88, Davis 42, Cummings 26, Mar­ shall 37, Meredith 27, Hitchcock 18^ Glass 26, Edwards 42, Girard 21, Har­ rison 6. and a few scattering votes. By the time the fourteenth ballot was taken on Saturday the contest ha* narrowed down to the three leader^, with the exception of the Oklahoma delegation, which stuck to Senator Owen to the last; the West Virginia delegation, which never deserted Am­ bassador Davis, and the Virginia dele­ gation, which stayed by Senator Glasm ' until Monday afternoon. AH of these delegations were sticking to favorite sons in the hope of being in when the time of compromise should come. Ttyr vote of the lenders on this ballot wasc McAdoo 855%, Cox 153%, Palmer 18X After the sixteenth ballot n recess wee taken In the hopes that some compro­ mise might be effected that would per­ mit of a nomination before midnight but It was without result. The lead­ ers were willing to pick a dark horsau and the attempt was made to put over Ambassador Davis, but the delegatee refused to follow Hie leaders, and con­ tinued to vote almost to u man am they had before adjournment, an* they continued to do so until mldnlgh* forced an adjournment lo Monday. Withdrawal Of Palmer. In reality It was the caucuses off Sunday and Sunday night that In that end resulted in the withdrawal of Pal­ mer and made the final nonilnattosa possible. The space allotted to thfia story Is not sufficient to warrant as* attempt at painting a word picture ' the Democratic convention of 1920. It was a convention that will be remem­ bered as one of the most fiercely fought political battles, one of the moo* picturesque political gatherings to that nation's history. Spectacular Demonstrations. The demonstrations for favorite candidates ami for favorite policies^ , contained all of the old-time political fervor. Time after time came pa­ rades of state standards. Time after time came fights for the possession oC state standards, and In which a nun>ber of them were destroyed. At that close of Mr. Bryan's address to sup­ port of his dry plank all of the state standards, with the exception of Near York. Mississippi. Illinois, New Jem sey. Alabama, Ohio and two or threw others, were carried to the platform te his honor. Following the address a* Secretary Colby in support of the ma­ jority report of the platform com­ mittee on theLeague of Nations, evaa* state standard was carried to the plate form as si tribute to him. • Noise From Ohio.

There1 were nearly one hundred present. Extra tables were used to carry the heavy load of eats.

Fall wheat will do best on land plowed and prepared at an early date, in order that the seed bed may become firm and well compacted. A large percentage of the wheat crop follows oats and barley, according to Prof. J. F. Cox of the Michigan Agricultural College, and after the removal of these crops this land should be plowed immediately to a medium depth. "Many farmers are unable to take time or to find help at this season of the year to do the plowing”, says Professor Cox. "In this case it is suggested that the stubble be thor­ oughly disced as soon as the oats or barley Is removed. Then when plowed later the ground will be in a more mellow condition. A good seed bed—flrm and well compacted —requires six weeks or two months after oats or barley. It can be com­ pacted only by allowing time for set­ tling and using the roller.” Hubby (Home on Vacation)—"The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.” Wife (All tired out)—"Then you come here and rule the world awhile.” Front Laced S Models Those preferring a front-laced corset will find the G-D Justrite Front Laced models have Lbe same figure moulding qualities which are so characteristic of all G-D Justrites.

Albert Henry Mason was born near Cleveland, Ohio, April 17, 1850, Ind passed away at his home in Nashville, July 13, 1920, aged 70 years, 2 months and 26 days. He was the son of Thomas and Polly Mason, and the third of a family of eight children, of whom but two sur­ vive him. When but a young boy, he came with his parents to Michigan, settl­ ing in Kaia mo township, Eaton coun­ ty, where the major portion of his life was spent. In 1878 he was unit­ ed in marriage to Miss Jennie L. Karcher, to which union three chil­ dren were born: Florence, who pre­ ceded him in death in 1902; Anna, now living in Boyd, Montana; and Clarence of Nashville. Besides the widow and children, he leaves to mourn their loss one brother, John of Nashville; one sis­ ter, Mrs. Charlotte Trelber of Idaho; and a number of more distant rela­ tives and friends. Funeral services were held at the home Thursday afternoon, conduct­ ed by Rev. Charles Hanks, with in­ terment in the Kalamo cemetery. CARD OF THANKS.

AH tlie harder to bear were the dingy ta­ blecloths and too seldom changed tow­ els of her boarding house. The way to make good these dreams was to marry. And all Peggy had to do tet be married was to say, “Yes, Henry." But she hadn’t been able to bring herself to the point of say­ ing, “Yes. Henry," because she want­ ed to say, “Yes. Jim." Yet how could one say yes to a question one bad never been asked? Henry was an assistant floor-walker, and very popular with the girls on ac­ count of his clothes, his repartee and his willingness to “show them a good time." AH of which characteristics Peggy admitted were excellent, but af­ ter all not the only ones essential for a good busband. For instance. Jim at times dressed shabbily, was far too quick, with his tongue and hadn’t ever shown her what the other girls would have con­ sidered much of a time at all. But thought of him as a (H-reon who would “wear well," and whut finer quality could the tuao have with whom you expected to pass from youth to old age?

Peggy looked very desirable ns she sat opposite him, her bands folded, her eyes the color: of velvet pansies, her Ups tremulous. Peggy sighed. Perhaps any old home was better than no home at all. Brave­ ly she prepared to say the words which she knew would bring Henry's arms about her. "Well," she began slowly. The doorbell rang violently. Peggy jumped np to open the door, not sorry for the Interruption. On the step stcod a tall, broad-shbuldered person who smiled with evident pleasure as he looked into Peggy’s astonished face.

Said hurrying shoppers. Peggy rested a headachy brow on her hand and tried to bring herself* to a decision. She knew that Henry would be outside and that sometime during the walk home he would probably put his fre­ quent question: "Well, old girl, when are you and me going to tie up?" After the bell rang and Peggy had made tip her books, she went to the dressing room. took down her coat and hat and walked slowly out Into the chilly night. Henry was waiting at the corner. , “Some weather, all right," said Henry. “You ought to be wearing a regular fur coat, girlie. Well, one of these days—" and he winked signifi­ cantly. Then: "Anything on for to­ night?" be asked. Peggy hesitated. “N-o-o." she said “Well. I’ll be around about eight and we’ll talk a few things over. Got to leave you here to see a man." .He lifted his hat with elaborate courtesy and turned down a side street Peggy felt a sense of respite, but after all. she reflected. It was only for a couple of hours. Then she was going to say, "Ye* Henry." Eight b’clock brought Henry, his ■leek hair brushed to a line, a carna­ tion Id his buttonhole.

VALLEY CITY MILLING CO GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN �New Deere Light Draft Sulky Want Column Ourlovri George Franck ought to wear a little ruby light behind when he goes prowling around in other people’s garages. George was out on the riv­ er the other day and something went wrong with the boat he had and he went after something to fix it with, and in the course of his wandering around he strolled into Bert Wotrlng's garage, thinking he might find there just what he wanted. He had Just nicely started his search when young John drove in with the car, and George did the liveliest bit of footwork he has done In many a long year to keep from being caught between tbe car and the rear wall of the garage. John was about as badly reared as George was, and neither of them cares to repeat the experience. The most extensively used wheel plow in the world is the New Deere Stay Sulky Plow with the new and valuable improvements. The John Deere Quick Detachable Share with Foot Lift makes it easy to manage, light of draft and durable. The most important feature of tbe Light Draft is the plow bgttoms as they can be had in any standard size and style to meet all soil conditions, which is an important fact when figuring draft and quality of work. .

Happened along about the right time of day we run against a sign about "Chicken Dinner" in front of a rather ordinary looking place and we had a good place just then to put a chicken dinner, so we stopped and went in and ordered a chicken dinner, just like the sign said.

Well, we peeled off the hide and chewed a long time on what seemed like a worn out inner tube of an au­ to tire, and finally managed to swal­ low it in lumps and strings. The rest of the meal was fairly edible, so we managed to escape starvation, but what struck our wallet an awful wallup was what the landlord said when w.e came to pay the bill. “Two dollars per plate," and never blush­ ed nor looked ashamed. Well, he looked like he needed the money, so we paid him the eight plunks and came away, a sadder and we hope a wiser man. And then for supper at another place we got a lock of the cook's hair on toast. Probably wanted us , to have a souvenir to bring home with us. OPEN FOR BUSINESS The hardware store of Wm.

They just don’t ss^m to care whose old cow they draw their drink from. While Hayden Nye Is gallivantin' around the country somewhere, looking for goodness knows what, Glenn Steele is doing his chores and is also pas­ turing some of his own cows at the Nye place. It happened that Roy Bassett's folks get their milk at the Nye place. It happens that Roy Roy was home from Lansing his wife sent him after the milk. He found Steele milking, and he told Roy what pail to get his milk from, but Roy thought he wanted to draw the milk himself, so he picked out a cow, milked her and took the milk home with him. And he never knew until he got home and his little boy told him, that he had milked one of Mr. Steel’s cows instead of one of Nye’s. mood’s, north of town.

I can't turn him out, now that he’s sick, just because he’s lost his position. Hospitals don’t take people without money, either." "It’s not up to you. is It. to stand for David Powell’s bills?

How about giving me that hon-. or?” A scarcely perceptible shadow crossed the woman's face, but Abe smiled sweetly just the same, hoping to remove any sting as she answered Joe Barton—prosy, thrifty Joe, whom she had been refusing regularly since her pinafore days. "Romance may not be for me. Joe. but I wouldn’t marry the best man on earth unless I honestly loved him. I'll get along all right. Now I'm going to take David Powell his supper.” Barton, sensing his usual dismissal, lighted his cigar and went out. The expression on Hannah Saw­ yer's face was tenderly beautiful as she opened the door of David Pow­ ell's .room and slipped quietly over to his bedside; but It changed quickly to one of alarm ha she found the sick man moaning In delirium and burning with fever.

Fresh eggs were surely- a problem, but she knew she could solve it in some way. The lit­ tle teacher from the mission school had told her of a woman who came there twice a week with fresh sup­ plies, so Hannah fared forth to the mission fortified with the first with­ drawal from her savings account “Til be only too glad to let you have them," said Mrs. Compton, the woman from the country, “especially If they’re tor a sick man.

Putnam, and also congratulat­ ed the community on the co-operation of the three co-operative organiza­ tions in giving* a picnic of this na­ ture. Mr. Ketcham's theme was "By­ products of Co-Operation”, which was handled as only John can handle a subject, and thrill an audience. In his opinion Co-Operative organisa­ tions have caught and taught the world a ntfw idea, that ot "service”. Not a man or community for self, but a finer community and country, secured by exalted service in co-op­ erative labor. Through co-opera­ tion the farmer, who has always known how to grow but not how sell, learns to be an exacting salesman. He has pride in his occupation and gains confidence in his ability to talk and believe in his own product, in his humorous way .Mr. Ketcham mentioned that one of the by-pro­ ducts of co-operation was money, il­ lustrating, from the creamery which has been able to pay 7c above the individual markets, making a gain which aids both farmer and mer­ chant, since more money in the pockets of the formed means more money in the till of the latter. He emphasized the difference co-opera­ tion had made in bringing about a sense of ownership and personal re­ sponsibility for the success of any business, and the deepening of a community spirit, an influence far greater than motors, movies or mag­ azines. At the close of the program the band led the way to Riverside Park, where an exciting ball game was played between the north and south sides, closing with a score ot 12 to. 13 in favor of the north side. The two teams lined up as fol­ lows, and the game was exciting and interesting from start to finish. Five innings were played. South Siders—12. Chester Smith, cf. John Sbrlner, 2nd and p.

Church News k Nazarene Church Notes. We seem to be in the midst of days of big things, big men, big days, and big movements. Well every member of the local Nazarene church is looking forward to next Sunday as a big day, with a big man In the pulpit. Well, all days are big " in the service of the Lord, yet are exceptional. Rev. B. T. Flanery, ex-professor of the Missouri Holiness college at Clarence, Mo., will be with us and preach both morning and evening, and this meeting will continue for a few days next week. It is claimed that Mr. Flanery is‘ one of the best Bible students in the Holiness movement. These meetings are sure to be a blessing to all who will attend. - On home-coming week while seeking friends and acquaint­ ances of other days, would it not be. wisdom to seek the true friend,' Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin ot the world. j At all these meetings the sinner' will be given an opportunity to seek i the Lord, and the believer will be given an opportunity to consecrate) their life to God, and obtain the ex­ perience of entire sanctification. Remember the date, the first ser­ vice will be' next Sunday morning at eleven o’clock. If you hear him in the morning you will want to come again in the evening tft 7.30. Qharles Hanks, pastor.

They say "It’s u wise father who knows his own child." Also, we'll say. It’s a wise farmer who knows bis own pigs. Pete Bass found some pigs in his corn a few days ago, and he was good and plenty mad about it. He "drove them out into the road dnd put up the fence good, so they couldn't get back. Later they wan­ dered into the fields of his neighbor, Pete Snore, who penned them up and took care ot them. Last week Snore advertised the pigs in the News, but received no reply to his advertise­ ment, which he thought strange, as they wefe good-sized pigs and worth very real money. Bass, likewise, thought it strange, until Monday, when something told him to take an inventory ot his pigs. Come to find out, it"was his own pigs w-bicb he had driven out of his corn into the road, and which later took up their abode with' Mr. Snore. Bass willingly paid the charges for the keeping of the " pigs, and for the advertising, 'but he didn’t really want anything more said ’about it in the News. So we won't say anything about it. more Kent Nelson had a bully time on his vacation, and it wasn’t nearly as expensive as it might have been. He and Ed. Kane ot Detroit were put­ ting in a day or two at Grand Rap­ ids, with Kent's car, which Ed. was driving at quite a merry clip, when a traffic cop overhauled them and steered them' out to the side of the road. They should have been law­ yers, those two chaps, they have such .winning ways. They actually talked that cop into letting them go scot free, after admitting that he had the goods on them, by claiming they were from Detroit, where the traffic officers want a fellow to drive fast to keep out ot the way. He gave them some good advice and told them the best way to get out of town toward Detroit. nation for governor, la making re­ peal or amendment of the primary law one of the chief iMues of the campaign. "The present primary system putr a premium on dishonesty,” he de­ clares. “The system implies that the voter, to make an intelligent choice, must personally know the qualifications of the candidate. Since all the voters cannot call on him, he must seek to make himself and his principles known through publicity. But if he spends the amount of mon­ ey necessary for this he is headed for Leavenworth." - There is much truth in Mr. Glas­ gow’s argument. It does not apply to contests for county nominations as much at Is does to state-wide, con­ gressional and senatorial primaries !n which a candidate, comparatvely little known, but yet possessing all the qualifications necessary for the office he seeks, is at a great disad­ vantage. The amount ot money It permits a candidate or his friends to spend is not only inadequate but inconsistent with the intent of the statute. A can­ didate should at least be permitted, elher personally or through a cam: paign .fund contributed by his sup­ porters, to make a reasonable, legiti­ mate expenditure, sufficient to ac­ quaint the voters with* his record or platform. Yet under the law as it is now Interpreted a candidate can­ not even circularize the state with one mailing of a statement of princi­ ples without making hijnself Hable to criminal prosecution. The law as it is now is unfair to candidate and voter. It- isn't neces­ sary’ to Spend oodles of money or buy one’s way into office, but the limit of legal expenditure should* be raised to enable him to at least make himself known beyond his own baillwick. ouaui -re the ranking of any inquirer’s county and hope, for a wholesome rivalry among counties during the hoi days of this summer for first place in safety for babies.

Political Advertisement. John J. Sterling, now serving his second term aa prosecuting attorney of Berrien county, and candidate for Republican nomination for congress In this district, was born on a farm in Benton township, Berrien county, Michigan, forty-four years ago. He has lived in this Congressional dis­ trict all bls life. For more than twenty years he lived and worked on his father's farm, and during the winter walked to town to school, at­ tending Benton Harbor college, from which institution he graduated in the business department in 1895. In 1898 he was again graduated from the literary department of the same institution. Shortly thereafter he commenced to study law in the of­ fice of a Benton Harbor lawyer, aud Much of 'our earthly happiness Is due to our ability to forget things. The young man parts his hair, but the bald man has parted from his. When two become one. It sometimes happens that the missing one will nev­ er be missed. In England the sender of a telegram can cancel it, if transmission hits not begun, by paying a fine of a few cents. Nothing makes a man so weary In after years ns to have his wife talk about things that happened during their honeymoon. ’ He la ’’self made.” He began lifq as a poor boy, work- . on a Berrien county farm. He worked his way through the grade schools. He worked his way through the Benton Harbor high school. Out of his savings he paid his way through the law department of the University ot Michigan. He is progressive, for he fought his way up against every adversity the poor man meets In life. He has been signally successful as Referee in Bankruptcy for the West­ ern District of Michigan. He knows labor's needs because for years he worked as a laborer In Col­ by-Hinkley’s mil! and Benton Har­ bor’s newspapers. He knows the business man's prob­ lems because he has been successful in business ventures and is a busi­ ness man. He is 100 per cent American and opposed to any League of Nations which barters away the rights and sovereignity of the United States. He is 100 per cent honest. Willard J. Banyon has EVERY essential qualification that a Con­ gressman should have if he is to truly reprsent ALL classes in his dis­ trict. From a poor boy he has come up through the ranks, the ranks of farming, labor, business, and law. His record stands unchallenged and unequalled us a man who made his way alone and unaided. He respectfully solicits the Re­ publican support of the Fourth Con­ gressional district at the primaries August 31. (Advt.) Make Your Home Comfortable!

JUST RECEIVED in 1900 passed the State Bar exami­ nation and was admitted to the bar at the age of twenty-three years. In 1902 he graduated from the law de­ partment ot the University of Michi­ gan, receiving the degree of LL. B. Since that time he has practiced law in Benton Harbor, and is now recog­ nized as one ot the leading trial lawyers in Southwestern Michigan. In 1914 Mr. Sterling was appointed City Attorney of Benton Harbor, serving the metropolis of the Fourth District as its legal advisor for two years. In 1916 he was nominated and elected prosecuting attorney of Berrien county, and re-elected by an overwhelming majority In 1918. The office of prosecuting attorney of Ber­ rien county is a very responsible and burdensome one. From ten to twelve hundred actual court cases a year have been disposed of by the prose­ cuting attorney's office in Berrien county each year during Mr. Ster­ ling’s term of office. This immense volume of business has been bandied by him without any special prosecu­ tors being employed. The people of the great county of Berrien have twice placed the stamp of approval upon the character and ability of their prosecuting attorney, and now they ask that he be promot­ ed to a higher field of usefulness. Keep In mind that: John J. Sterling is a tireless work­ er. He Is honest. He is able. He is fearless. He is never neutral. He is Labor's friend, because, for many years a laboring man himself. He is the friend of the Farmer, having worked on one for 20 years. He is a man of exceptional force and eloquence aa an orator. He is one of Michigan's foremost lawyers. He has always been and now is a Republican. He stands for America first; for one language, the American lan­ guage; for one loyalty, and that to the American government: for one al­ legiance. and that to the American people and the Stars and Stripes. He believes that the people, and not Wall street and a set of interna­ tional bankers, should rule America. He l< *11 permanent ri.relo> entangling alliances. Your vote and influence at the primary.

Read this letter from the President of the Michigan Federation of Labor, Hon. Carl Young of Muskegon; to Senator Harvey: “You were one of tbe men in the senate that I depended on to get such legislation as I was seeking in the interest of the toiling masses and you never turned a deaf ear to my appeal. You gave me this support not for the labor interests alone but from the fact that you stood for the best interests of the whole peopleof the State. I HOPE YOU WILL BE SUCCESSFUL." Senator Harvey helped liberalize the workman's compensation law' and supported other measures -benefitting employees. WOMEN VOTERS! Senator Harvey voted for and supported law compelling employer* of labor to pay women tbe same wa<ee as men for the same work wheth­ er by the day or piece work and forbidding their employment at tasks beyond their strength or detrimental t0 their health and other laws pro­ tecting women and children. * TAXPAYERS: Senator Harvey saved the taxpayers of Michigan over $25,000, an­ nually, by defeating in the Senate the plan to create another paid “Board** at Lansing. He has consistently stood for economy in pub­ lic expenditures et times when the so-called "good fellows’’ were trying to. be good fellows—with the public’s money. SOLDIERS: Senator Harvey believes that tbe money to pay bonus to soldiers and sailors should have been provided for in the Peace Treaty, but inasmuch as it was not It should now be appropriated and paid service men as simple debt due them.

He comes from a county that has never furnished a congressman to present district and ho is vouched for by the very best men and women of that county.

ALONG LIFE’S HIGHWAY. We are walking down the road, And we’ve got a heavy load; Yet we hope to reach the town by light of day. We can see the tall standpipe. And the distance seems a fright, But we try our best to step light and be gay. Tramp, tramp, tramp, for we are marching; ’ Cheer up, merchants, we'll be there; And beneath your shining lights You will get what change we’ve got. Keep your bright lights shining we'll be there. Oh, our shoulder's getting sore. So we shift the burden o’er, And try our very best to keep the By a happy, jolly, laughing driver’* side. Oh, the driver never slackened, There were bristles on his back. And we cursed him and his auto all Then another hove in sight. But it turned off to the right And it left us weak and weary x 'long the way. Trudge, trudge, trudge, we keep oa moving; Cheer up, butchers, we’ll be there; With your shining old meat knife You can slash us off a slice. And then charge it to account al­ ready there. Oh, the poor man had to walk. And tbe rich hog rode and lolled; But, thank God, *tis not the univer­ sal way. There are many jolly folks Who would not pass you by. Or would leave one weak and weary ’long the way. Step, step, step, we’re just a moving; Cheer up, doctors, have no fear; In vour office, bolstered up, You can kill or patch us up; And then come and get our honey crop this year. —V. D. Andrews.

Hon. C. L. Glasgow spent Tuesday and Wednesday in Grand Rapids, rounding up his local organization, which is composed of some ot the most representative men in the city. Mr. Glasgow is steering clear of the ward heelers and plug uglies with which Sleeper made his bed during his two gubernatorial campaigns, which commends his candidacy to that portion of the people who be­ lieve a candidate for office should not stoop to nasty methods and under­ handed tactics to accomplish his ends. Mr. Glasgow steadfastly in­ sists on making no promises or en­ tering into no deals which will ham­ per him in the least degree In the event of his being elected Governor. He acts on the theory that the office should seek the man and that the high minded candidate should con­ fine his efforts to making the ac­ quaintance of the people and then abide by the decision ot the voters. The Tradesman is pleased to support Mr. Glasgow, not because of his po­ litical faith, but because he is the only mercantile candidate in the field and also because he has always acquitted himself well In every pub­ lic office he has held in the past If the past is any criterion of the fu­ ture, Mr. Glasgow would make a most excellent executive officer. —Michigan Tradesman.

FIRST AID TRAINING TO MEN AND WOMEN American Red Cross Is Teaching Hundreds of Thousands Life* Saving Methods. The purpose of Instruction In First Aid to the injured offered by the Amer­ ican Red Cross Is to train men and women to administer First Aid treat­ ment promptly and Intelligently when emergencies demand It. First Aid treatment is not Intended to take the ।place of a physician's service. A sur­ ,geon should always be sutnmoneed as ]a precautionary measure where there , Is an Injury of any consequence, but when one cannot be secured a few min­ utes' delay may mean a fatality. In 1such a case a person trained In First .Aid is invaluable not only to the In­ ।dividual, but through him to the com­ munity In which he lives. There is perhaps no way of nscer..‘talnlng the number of deaths or seri­ ,ous disablements which result from !lack of proper safeguards or prompt emergency treatment. It Is safe to as­ 1 !sert they number thousands dally. There can be no doubt that the appli­ ' .cation of First Aid methods to each ,case would Immeasurably lighten the ,country’s toll of suffering and death. The dissemination of First Aid train­ ,ing and information has already pro­ duced a farreachlng and beneficial In­ 1 fluence in. the prevention of accidents on railroads, in mines and In great In­ ' 1dustrial concerns. The benefit of a widespread knowl­ ।edge of First Aid In the event of a ।great disaster, such ns a train wreck, .an explosion, an earthqulke, etc„ is obvious. Laymen who have had First Aid, training can render efficient as­ sistance. Many Ilves rnay depend upon such emergency care. Red Cross First Aid work Includes (1) the formation and conduct, through Red Cross chapters, of classes for In­ struction In accident prevention and First Aid to the Injured among men and women In all communities and In every industry; (2) the Introduction of courses of instruction in high .schools and colleges. The Red Cross is prepared to supply First Aid books and equipment at rea­ sonable pi Ices. Every person In this country able to do so should, tn his own interest, re­ ceive Red Cross First Aid Instruction^ Information about the course and in­ struction classes may be had at the nearest chapter headquarters. • RED CROSS EXTENDS RELIEF TO POLAND More than $5,000,000 has been spent by the American Red Cross in aiding the stricken people of. Poland. The organization has nursed the sick, fed the starving, clothed the naked, shelter­ ed the homeless, schooled the children and cared for the orphans there. It has conducted a relentless fight against typhus, Cholera and other terrible dis­ eases. So today millions of men and women In that resurrected nation speak In grateful appreciation of “The Greatest Mother In the World.” Nearly 200 American Red Cross workers are now engaged in relief ac­ tivities in Poland. Foor large relief bases are in operation and eleven mob'le units are in the field. During the last twelve months this organization was largely Instrumental In the re-es­ tablishment of a million refugees at a cost for general relief of more than $1,000,000.

It will continue to supply the needs of the United States Public Health Service to which It has as­ signed more than 1,000 nurses in the last year. It will assist in establishing proper nursing senice In foreign countries where the American Red Cross has or­ ganized hospitals, dispensaries and schools for nurses. Courses in home hygiene and care of the sick hove been started for thousands of women who have never received any education »a this direction. Rural nursing which was in Its Infancy a short while ago has been put ahead at least a decade through the work of the department of nursing and local Red Crocs chapters. Public health nursing has been ex­ tended to many rural communities and now flourishes actively In hundreds of small towns and counties. Nearly a thousand efficient nurses have already been assigned to this kind of work. The department of nursing Is unit­ ing with other organizations.In a year’s campaign in recruiting nurses for training schools. In educating the gen­ eral public as to standards of nursing education and In showing communities their responsibility toward schools of nursing. It win endeavor to meet all these needs as well as to continue the enrollment of dietitians who will be utilized as instructors in home dietet­ ics, in developing nutritional clinics, and In supplying dietitians for the United States Public Health Service and the civilian hospitals. The Nursing Service will continue to offer to women and young girls the opportunity of securing instruction in home hygiene and care of the sick In every community In the country. This Instruction has not only laid the foun­ dation for public health but In some places has given impetus to the estab­ lishment of hospitals and community school houses. “As a community profits by the work of the nurse." says Miss Clara D. Noyes, .director of the department of nursing, “It Is logical that the com­ munity should be aroused to.its respon­ sibility. The American Red Cross stands ready to help In a general cam­ paign of recruiting and must have the support, sympathy and understanding of the medical profession as well as the intelligent co-operation of the people at large." HOME SERVICE FOR EVERYBODY IN NEED Do you know* what the present day Home Sendee of the American Red Cross is? . • Many people- do not know that, be­ sides completing the work for ex-serv­ ice men, especially the disabled. It pro­ vides the same neighborly service to families in general that It formerly gave families of soldiers, sailors and marines. “Home Service covers a wide and varied field," says Frederick C. Mun­ roe. general manager of the American Red Cross. “It gives aid to families In solving such problems as budget planning, marketing, tiding over times of financial stress, keeping children in school, helping crippled children, wid­ owed and deserted mothers, children backward tn school and children tn conflict with the laws. It renders serv­ ice to the homeless and transient, to the illiterate, to tenement dwellers, to tne unemployed, and gives friendly as­ sistance and advice to foreign speak­ ing groups."

Come and have a good time C. L. Glasgow William H. Frankhauser for Congress The claim which Hillsdale county Is making that Mr. Frankhauser ahould be nominated, because that county has been persistently ignored, nnd has not had a Congressman for forty-six years, has not been success­ fully refuted. Kalamazoo County which is now claiming this honor, has had Congressional honors for thirty-seven years since Hillsdale has had a Congressman. It must be added, however, that Hillsdale does not rest its case go this proposition; but it claims more. It claims that it is presenting to the voters of the Third Congressional District, a man splendidly qualified for the duties of that office. Mr. Frankhauser is a lawyer of great abili­ ty. and Is known all over southern Michigan as among the leaders of the.bar. He is an orator of superior ability, and his experience as a busi­ ness man would be of great value to the people of the Third District, ahould he be elected to Congress. The people of Eaton County have added reasons why they should aid Hillsdale County at this Primary. For years, Hillsdale has stood by Eaton County In its fight to keep Hon. J. M. C. Smith in Congress. Mr. Smith has retired, and Hillsdale should receive the nomination. —Political Advt.

The new department was suggested to him last week when a charming young mother went to the back part of the store, where the proprie­ tor was working at bis desk, and ask­ ed him if he would care for her ba­ by a few moments. Thinking she wanted to make some purchases with­ out being bothered by the little one, he took the baby and started in to entertain.it. As he is naturally very fond of babies he got along “swim­ mingly” for a time, but then be com­ menced to look around for the moth­ er, and to his consternation she was not in the store. Well, he did the best he cotaid, under the circum­ stances, and waited. And waited. Then he waited some more, but no mother appeared. Then he appeal­ ed to some ot the lady clerks In the store to come-to his relief, but they were all enjoying the situation and all the reply he got was the "busy” buzz. Well, along about closing lime, when the situation was becom­ ing desperate, along came the baby's mother, and grabbed her darling away from Herman, dropped him a sweet little "thank you.” and went on her happy way, while Herman was so relieved that he didn’t even chide her tor h<?r apparent neglect of the Infant. Arid now . we under­ stand that for the Harvest Festival the "Babies’ Home” will be in full working order as an adjunct to the store, where busy mothers, are In­ vited to l£ave their darlings to be cared for while they enjoy the sights of the midway. Herman says he would just about as soon take care of a dozen as one. while he has his hand in, and especially as all the lady clerks are so kind In their of­ fers ot assistance. They have a superfluity of motor cops In New York, and woe to the motorist from out of the state who exceeds the speed limit. A New York car gets by with almost any old rate of speed, but those people in the little towns through the state sure do like the looks of money from out­ side the state. Well, it’s worth something to an outsider to drive ov­ er the kind of roads they have tn New York, but they didn’t get any of ours in that way. We kept ours for the hotel keepers.

The quality of the flour comes out in the baking. How it bakes, the flavor, the color, the nutriment, all depend upon the selection of wheat and the processes of milling. LILY WHITE is made from the choicest wheat grown in this countiy—not too hard, nor too soft, but just right for perfect balance. Only the “goodies” of the kernel are milled. The wheat is cleaned four times, scoured three times, and actually washed once before going onto the rolls for the first break. The result is a flour of superfine texture, of perfect uni­ formity of granulation, of a most palatable flavor, of unsurpassed color. Everything baked from LILY WHITE is light, tender, deliciotis. It is an all-around flour. Count­ less thousands of women are enjoying reputations won from baking wonderful bread, rolls, biscuits and pastry from this high-grade flour.

He’ll be all right in a few moments. . . I could not stand for his laying hands on me." “To think that you could have so forgotten yourself!" reproved Mrs. Kirkland. “Was I to endure being treated as a thief?" he broke in. “I regret that he forced it upon me before yourself i and your daughter.

Bemm sighed enviously. At the sigh Clinton bent over the temptation. Bls lips came so near to the girl’s that his mustache grazed the tip of her saucy nose. But Instead of kissing her on the mouth, he put up his hand to lift her backflnng head, and pressed bls Ups reverently to her broad white forehead. “I say, now,” remarked Bemm, “if that’s not proof you’re her brother—I Miss Amy has only to say the word, and.I shall be charmed to Illustrate how one who Is not a brother—" The girl faced the others, leaning affectionately on Clinton’s shoulder. “Ellen dear, call Tillie to fetch a bucket of ice Mater. Poor Charlie Bemm Is still off his head." “Pm not," denied Bemm, rising a trifle unsteadily. “On the contrary, it whs my head that came near being off me.” Mrs. Kirkland looked earnestly at Clinton. "May I suggest that an apology—” she began. “From me!" flashed Bemm. with a heartiness that forestalled Clinton’s frown. “Though I tnganj Jt as a friend, | I should not have—er—resorted to I physical persuasion." "That Is generous of you, Mr. Bemm," said Clinton. “Well, you see,'you persuaded me. Instead,” rallied Bemm. "You pre­ sented a deucedly effective argument" “Oh.

"Must be doctor!" she exclaimed. “Where In the world did that— Oh, there It is!" She straightened up. rosy cheeked, to flourish the key of the front door In Clinton's face. “Own up!

Everything depends upon the kind of wheat used and the methods used in converting the raw materials into the finished article. „ , Lily White "77ie Flour the Bert Cooke Uee” Look for the ROWENA trade-mark on the sack has maintained a reputation for unsurpassed quality for generations. It is made from'the choicest selection of wheat grown in this country. The grain is thoroughly cleaned, scoured and washed before being milled. The part of each grain of wheat that finally is milled is only the heart of the kernel. The result is a flour of incomparable quality-per­ fect uniformity of granulation, color and volume. It is per­ fectly balanced to bake well and to give the .highest values in nutrition. Bread and rolls baked from LILY WHITE are of splendid color and have a flavor that is appetizYngly palatable. Bis­ cuits are light, tender and delicious—never flat, thin or soggy. Pie-crust is flaky—just like French Pastry. No food is as healthy and nourishing as breadstuff’s made from high-grade flour.

AMES BENNET CHAPTER V Early Birds. - At sunrise Clinton was wakened by the dazxllng rays.that streamed to at his open window. He hastened to where he bad left his clothes. They were arranged In a different manner from that in which he left them—they had an odd look— the suit was not Ills own. Though not unlike In color, the pattern and tex­ ture were dissimilar. On the dresser lay all the articles that had been In his suit except the handkerchiefs. Fresh linen and underwear were laid out In the place of what he had worn. His shoes set where he had left them, but they had been carefully polished.* It was easy to divide that while be* slept sbmeone.had come Into the room through the rear door or the passage that led to the bathroom. Accustomed to hotels, he glanced nlong the walls In search of a bell' push button. - On the aide near the rear was a round contrivance. He went over.and recognized It ns the mouthpiece of an.old-fashioned speak­ ing tube. He stooped to it and called Irritably: “Hello, hello. Is this the kitchen? Hello—" ' “Yes, yes.

She danced ahead of him. rap­ turously calling his attention to her especial favorites among the blossoms. He agreed with all her praises, evi­ dently willing to accept her judgment since he never shifted his gaze away from her dainty head and graceful, girlish form. She had on a crisp ging­ ham dress, and her abundant hair hung down her straight little back in a thick braid. There was excuse for even a brother to consider her ador­ able, particularly a brother who could not realize that she was bls sister. She glanced about and caught bls rapt expression. "Oh, Will, what is It?” she asked. “You look so-so— as if you’ve been moonstruck 1” • “I am trying to compose a poem,” be Mid. “How la, this? Did you ever stop to think that the advertisements of the home merchants in this newspaper make it a BETTER newspaper? Well, it doe*. Advertising teaches PROGRESS, ECONOMY—and CONFIDENCE It teaches progress tn keeping you abreast of the times, of all that is new and desirable in foods, cloth­ ing. homes, supplies, and comforts of all kind*. It teaches economy through informing you where the best prices may be had—because economy is not only in the mere saving of money but also in the in­ telligent spending of it It teaches confidence through the knowledge gained in knowing you live as other folks live; enjoy the things they enjoy—that you have the same advantages. The text book of our worldly comforts is written in the terse, lines of our merchandising advertisements —AND IT’S WELL WORTH READING.

Tiie cashier glnnccd at the ticket, handed it back to him, and turned to another customer. “The money will be sent in to you,” he said in a brusque tone. “His busy day. y’know," drawled Bemm. signaling Clinton to come withhim through the door behind the ral!.t “Cashier runs the bargain counter of a bank. Quite a hore, I take It. Give me the vice presidency. Stately lei­ sure—nil that, y’know." Clinton stopped short, his fingers thrust Into the fold of his wallet “It must have dropped out" he muttered. “What’s that?" inquired Bemm. “The check for the suitcase. I must have dropped it" “You did—last evening,” replied Bemm. “No doubt It fell out with your baggage checks. I must have been still a bit confused from that knockout blow when I picked them up. This morning I found tbe brasJ check in my pocket" “Yes," said Clinton, holding out his hand. • Bemm smiled suavely. “You’ll par­ don the liberty. I'm sure. I happened to be down at the depot and thought you might like to have your suitcase up at the house." “Thanks. Doctor Kirkland will hear today with regard to Mr. Lowrie, so I mny be leaving tonight But it was thoughtful of you.” “You think of leaving tonight?’,' pro­ tested Bemm. “The moment my identity is estab­ lished I fancy neither Mian Kirkland nor Miss Lowrie will urge me to stay.” “I’d be glad to put you up In my diggings Until you’ve got In touch with people here," offered Bemm. Clinton met the cordial Invitation with a frank smile and an equally frank refusal. “That’s good of you. But with the town determined to be­ lieve I’m Mr. ixnrrie, and the young ladles annoyed at finding I'm not. It will be a bit too uncomfortable." “Ah, yes," murmured Bemm, and he knocked softly at a door. “Here Is the office of the vice president.” t A bland, elderly gentleman opened the door. Bemm Introduced Clinton to him, and declined the vice presidents invitation to enter, with the excuse that he wished to chat with one of the assistant cashiers. Clinton sat down with tbe vice president, who iemarked casually on his strong resem­ blance to Will Lowrie, and started a witty conversation. Bemm. meantime, had gone through the Inclosure of the first assistant cashier Into the office of the bank president, a small, cold-eyed, correct banker. Bemm slipped into a chair at tbe financier's elbow and murmured He has He Has Changed Suits." changed suits to one he wore last summer, to which, no doubt, he has shifted the key." “Get it," said the president “At the first opportunity, sir. I do not think it best to show our hand until we have our proofs—or he at­ tempts to leave town.” A cipher telegram was handed in to the president. He unlocked his secret code book, translated the telegram, and stated laconically to Bemm: -Richard Clinton, forty thousand. First National, Chicago. Main depos­ its: draft on First National, Boston, for twenty-five thousand. In May, and check of International Security Bonds company for fifteen thousand, five days ago.” Bemm smiled exultantly. “That clinches it He took some or all of the bonds out of the safe deposit box when he went east; sold some, and deposited the proceeds in the Boston bank. To cover up he transferred his account to the Chicago bank. In May, under the name of Clinton. On his way home he sold more of the bonds— fifteen thousand dollars’ worth—to this Security Bonds company. I must confess that I have had my doubts whether he was not right In his claim of mistaken Identity—" “All (that Is immaterial, Bemm," curtly stated the president. “The next step is to locate the unsold bonds.” “Yes, sir. That Is what I had in mind. FI! lunch at the club. In vino veritas, y’know.” , The president made a slight gesture, of assent and dismissal. Bemm rose and bowed himself out as if be had been making a soda! calL CHAPTER VL Propinquity. When the bland vice president bowed Clinton out the latter's draft had been cashed. Bemm introduced the first assistant cashier, who, smil­ ing curiously at Clinton, handed him his money. The owner thrust the packet of bills into bls wallet and de­ clined an Invitation to be seated. “Time to go, ch, what?” said Bemm. “Needn't remind me.

Wired 'Frisco for them io be watched and held, if necessary. Tbe probability la that be “The dub?” inquired Clinton. Clinton not only refused wine but perslsted in talking on impersonal topic®. This last may have be^n due either to the reticence of good breeding or to a consciousness of guilt, or io an antip­ athy toward Bemm. When they left the club Bemm sug­ gested that they stroll over to the Ath­ letic club. They entered the dressing foods, where Bemm signed to the attendant In charge. “Open Mr. Lowrle’s locker, will you, Jones? He has forgotten ids "Lowrie?" muttered Clinton. . “Saves an awkward explanation y'know,” replied Bemm. “You’ll need only the shoes; but It's as well for you to stow your coat and hat in the locker they think Is yours.** A few minutes later the tw^ stripped to their* sleeveless under­ shirts, were facing each other in oat of tbe boxing rooms.

He held the aRn out to th® instructor. “That’s a slick Job, Mr. Lowrie,” the man commented. “No scar; no sig* it was ever there. How’d you do it?* For the first time since midafter­ noon the shadow of doubt in Clinton’s eyes gave place to a twinkle. “It’s * process not yet fully understood,” lie answered. “In a few days, however I may be able to explain it” "A very few days, I hope,” added Bemm. He put up his hands In response to Clinton's resumption of boxing “posi­ tion, and they began a lively round at sparring. He started a trifle slow, aa if his thoughts were not entirely cen­ tered on the contest This was suc­ ceeded with a burst of speed that would have disconcerted even some professional boxers. Clinton met it with a cool ring generalship that fre­ quently put bls more agile adversary at a disadvantage. At the end of the round, provoked that he had come out second best, Bemm called for another. Clinton shook his h&id. “I am warm enough already." he said. "Very well,” assented Bemm. “Wei? call It off for this time. How about a swim?” “Just a shower." said Clinton. “I wish to go out and learn If Doctor Kirkland has heard." Bemm nodded and took his compan­ ion back to the dressing room, where they shifted-Into bathrobes.

DAME FASHION’S FALL WEAR FOR MILADY FARM BOYS ON 4000-MILE TOUR This smart little single-breasted Jacket trimmed with gray squir­ rel will be among those to take MINISTER TO POLAND LEAVES FOR DUTY One hundred, arid fifteen farm boys, who have recently won a competitive examination in agrli cultural subjects, were rewarded with a 4000-mile tour through the principal farming regions of thd ■country. The trip took them through New York. Chicago. Detroit, Cleveland and Washington, ending mt College Station, Tex. The tour was financed by the business men of Texas. Its purpose was to> 'broaden the viewpoint of the future farmer boy and to enable him to meet agriculture problems with more intelligence. ■ He’s endorsed by leading profes­ sional, business and working men of Benton Harbor. He's never failed In any duty. He knows tfie workingman’s trdu-’ bles—for he’s been e hard worker ever since he was old enough to ply his bands and brain. He standr for AMERICAN SOV­ EREIGN RIGHTS—at home and abroad. He believes 75,000 dead <n France and on foreign battlefields HAVE NOT DIED IN VAIN, that they DIED FOR AMERICA, and for AMERICAN RIGHTS AND IDEALS. He is opposed to any League of Nations THAT SACRIFICES AMER­ ICA’S DEARLY BOUGHT TREAS­ URES. He stands squarely against CLASS LEGISLATION—that no minority may profit at the expense of the great majority. He favors the bonus the American Legion has asked for. As a bread-winner he stands for a speedy adjustment of our econom­ ical and industrial problems where­ by we may return to a normal basis and to a more practical and sensible plane of living, to the end that the present high cost of living may be lowered to a point that spells safety for every man, woman and child. In the fields as a boy; In the mills of Beaton Harbor as a young man; later as City Clerk of Benton Harbor; still later In the pursuit of business, Willard J.

The other four contestants are from the southern end of the District where the office has been held for the past twenty-four years. After a thorough canvass I am convinced that the honor can surely be won for Barry coun­ ty IF EVERY VOTER will go to the polls next Tuesday. It is predicted over the District that any candidate who polls 5.000 votes will win the nomination. In the spring of 1010 when the women voted for the first time Barry county alone cast 5,376 Republican votes. It is therefore possible, for Barry county to win the nomination If EVERY MAN AND WOMAN" goes to the polls next Tuesday. Believing that Barry county iw entitled to this honor in all fair­ ness; and that my acquaintance in the District, my knowledge of Its needs, my experience in public affairs in both state and nation, particularly fit me to represent the Fourth Congressional District during the next few years. I will appreciate the help of every citi­ zen in the county in securing a full vote next Tuesday. JOHN C. KETCHAM.

Til come back in my car and take you up home." Clinton hunted up the nearest tele­ phone booth and called the Kirkland residence. Mrs. Kirkland responded in a tone that rendered needless her statement that she was delighted to be talking with him. ' “You dear boy!" she cooed. “It’s like your own real self to be so ■ thoughtful, calling me up." “Has that telegram—7" he asked. ! “Not yet When my husband left | his office he ordered it delivered at your house.

Less than ten minutes later a taxi- ; cab brought him to the Lowrie house.

We expect it any mlnnte." “Should have come hours ago," add­ ed the physician. "They're such slow pokes!" com­ plained Amy. Ellen sighed audibly. Even Benn looked grave. The suspense of wait­ ing for the delayed telegnfm was mak­ ing every member of the party uneasy. Bemm may have had additional causes of worrlment, for his gravity deepened almost Into mproseiivsM. Old Tillie, still red-faced from her culinary operations but neat and fresh as any young housemaid, brought in her last course. As she entered, the tingle of the electric bell rang sharply through the open doorway. . "Land sakes! nnd me with my hands full!’’ she muttered. "Hl go!” cried Amy. "It must be the telegram." Impetuously she rose and flew Into the front hall. In a few moments she came darting back, calling over her shoulder: "Hurry, please! please hurry!" A blase messenger boy. with cap cocked over one ear, appeared tn the dining room doorway. Amy waved him to the physician. "This way! This is Doctor Kirkland." Doctor Kirkland handed the receipt book to the boy and caught up the tel­ egram. He tore open the envelope apd read the A fruwa creased his usually smooth forehand. "O-o-oh, papa I" sighed Ellen. “Bad news!” “H’m." he cleared his throat, “Lieten. This is the answer to my inquiry: •Regret superintendent away. On re­ turn he will wire full particulars.’" i j j I | | ' ■ I High Stakes. Instead of n climax, the message was an anti-climax. For a long mo­ ment all stared at the frowning phy­ sician. Ellen was the first to speak. She looked appealingly nt Clinton nnd whispered: “You—you will stay un­ til— r “All right" cheerily rejoined Clin­ ton. "On your heads be It 1 From now on I shall sit buck'and enjoy the com­ edy. It is delightful to be petted by a sweet Little sister." “How about a game of bridge?" sug­ gested Bemm. When, a few minutes Inter the party’ left the table. Doctor Kirkland went Into the parlor with his wife. The young people stopped In the library. Promptly Bemm began courting Amy with a directness and ardor that at first both surprised and amused Ellen. Soon, however, her Interest again cen­ tered on Clinton, who was regarding Bemm’s gallantries with fast deepen­ ing displeasure. From the parlor Mrs. Kirkland watched the young people with grow­ ing concern. Her husband, though his eyes were seemingly fixed on the pages of a newspaper, bad not missed a sin­ gle shade of change in Clinton’s ex­ pression. Mrs. Kirkland talked in a desultory manner to conceal from the players the intensity of her interest. At last, however, she reached the ut­ most limits of her patience. “My dear," she murmured, "some­ thing must be done- He is utterly neg­ lecting the poor child. Can you not see how wietched she is? I gave her your advice to keep on trying. She has dote so all evening, and yet look at him!" “If it were not for Amy—" replied the physician. "That is the uncertain factor. I had hoped not a little from his manner toward Ellen during their drive to my office. But now—" “Now?" “H’m. It is difficult to say what Is the nature of this concern for Amy." ■ “Karli It’s not possible you can mean—7" “I do not say, as yet It may be due to subconscious impulse—his opposi­ tion to Charlie before he went East" “But this is frightful r “I give it as a possibility," said the physician. "Stop and consider, my dear. Suppose him what be believes himself to be—a stranger to us alt" “I cannot!" “You must As a double personality, he is in effect a stranger. To avert this possibility of a ditester, he must be led to choose Ellen." , “Ah!" “You see now that it is a matter of greeter urgency than we thought; not merely a question of trying to recall—" “Yes, yes! Amy is fond of Charlie. If we can get her out of the way for a while— Sit still until I let you know." Rising leisurely. Mrs. Kirkland went Into the library. Bemm was taking in the winning trick of a gsme. She smiled and iffiook’ her finger at him. “How have you done It? You’ve wo? every time. In spite of Amy. It's won­ derful luck." "AU due to my partner," replied Bemm. “She |« the beet of luck." Amy jumped up to curtsey. �----------------------- — '■ — the if you Work for your money, it is your moneythen WHY WASTE IT?
