A large audience heard Rev. G. A.
Critchett give a very interesting talk
on the subject of Armenia, at the
Methodist church Sunday night. 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? Or
will it awake from its lethargy and
get some new enterprise here which
will give employment to our young
people and keep them home from De­
troit, Lansing, Flint and other plac­
es? 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&gt;|“ir&gt;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.

Just thinking. 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. And we never got
our fingers caught insthe wringer at
all.

C. L. Glasgow

We admire a man who, when he
starts to do anything, tries his best
to make a thorough job of it, but
there is such a thing sometimes as
going a HtUe bit too far, and espec­
ially when‘ he is monkeying with
something that be doesn't khow a
whole lot about. 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

"Who promised me?" challenged

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

“Oh, you mean Marty Doane." spoke

A gentleman wished to make , his
' wife a present of a lace scarf, but
had no desire to pay an extravgant
; price.
“I want you to buy a nice lace
scarf for Cousin Amelia." he said to
his spouse. "Choose something nice
।—something you would get for yourI self."
, The wife, however, had her own
j ideas as to generosity in buying pres[ents, and the purchase, when she
j made it, consisted of a, very simple
'article.
, "H’m!” said the husband; "is it
• what you would have chosen for
yourself?”
| "Exactly!" she replied.
। "Well, my dear, keep it, I meant
lit for you!” he-explained with an

"The Spender"
One of the cleverest and most ap­
pealing pictures ot the season will
be seen in the Metro presentation of
"The Spender," a production In
which Bert Lytel has reached a high
standard of achievement.
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.

"Riders of Vengeance"
Just at the moment when happi­
ness was bls and he had stepped out
of the western church with his bride
on his arm, a volley of bidden rifles
spurted, mingling the sound of shots
with the ipusic of the wedding bells,
and Cheyenne Harry’s father, moth­
er, brothers and wife sank on the
church steps, victims of one of the
cattle feuds that were a blot on the
fair name of the Golden West. Then
Cheyenne raised his right hand and
swore to bo revenged on the gang of
hired murderers.
TWs is the situation on which the
dramatic story of "Riders of Ven­
geance," a Harry Carey Western pic­
ture, is based.
The sequence of
gripping situations that go to make
this picture the strongest of all Car­
ey’s long line of successes was coutrived by Carey hlraelf, assisted by
Jack Ford; who directed the filming

have enough to eat and enough to
wear, and comfortable houses to live
in, and our choice of half a dozen dif­

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 bettor, let us at
the same time welcome the new
year with our most gracious smile
and firmly resolve that we will do

ever been before, and in that we will
find that we have done ourselves the

It was a pleasant, lively scene and
carried Nevll Brookes back to his early
youth. -Seated In a comfortable loung­

view of half a dozen little girls en­
gaged In the old-fashioned game of
"hop scotch.”

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

flared up the girl. “There is his cheap

added: “If he ever tries to kiss me

A Crackerjack Cracker
Why do we sell the beat cracker made for Abe least money?
Because we buy for cash and sell the same way.
We hare
answered the question, now we are going to ask ^tou one.
Why is a crow?
No, that’s not the one.
Why/ do people
i pay eighteen and twenty cents per pound for crackers that
are no better and some of them not so good as we
mH for 15c?
Because they can say "charget,” that’s one
reason.
We have doubled our cracker trade since March
the first.
Why?
Because we have given our trade a num­
ber one article and have not "profiteered.”
We have just
placed another large order for Perfection crackers. Get them
fresh; get them at the right place, whare the price is always
right. ,
Wishing you all a happy and prosperous New Year, we are. as ev­

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.

from Porcupine mountain to the east
Machias line is practically all blue­
berry land. Several factories are de­
voted to the canning of the berries.

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. You can save
your money for old age and at the same time have the pro­
tection so that if you should die before yonr policy is matur­
ed your family will have what you planned they should have
had you lived. Attend to this today.

You Want
Your Family
to Live in
Comfort
During his life a
certain man never
troubled his family
with any of the de­
tails of his business.
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.

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.
And loyal, helpful friends they proved,
old Hugh and the housekeeper as
well as Ariine. Interest and sympathy
aroused new emotions in that tender,
innocent heart and Sidney’ seemed to
wander lu a lonely paradise, safe and
secure from the troubles and dangers
that had made of him a persecuted
refugee.
It was a glad day for him when he
appeared in court, sustained his claim
and secured a verdict sgnlnst the plot­
ters which made of him a rich man.
*1 lay It ail at your feet, dear one."
he told Ariine. “him! iny life's devotion

Now, It is a habit of mine to read Cbm
signature was my brother’s name. Mr'
brother Is not a telegraph person, e»-ccpt for bad news, and the sight of Mra
name gave me a shock, and for a goo*
half-minute I could not go on with tkra
message. But when I got the courageto face what had h^Vpened in the farally, this Is what appeared:
“I am obliged to ask ynu to come tra
Philadelphia tomorrow on urgent busi­
ness. Take the train leaving NewYork at 11 a. in. I will meet you afc.
Broad Street station."
I think the first thing that strnchr
me as queer in it was the large num­
ber of words—words that no experi­
enced business man, using telegraphiccommunication al! the time, wouM:
have put in—the “to’s" and "the’sf”'
and then, “I am obliged to ask"—mybrother would say, “Must ask yo*&lt;
come,” or “Please come.”
The second queer thing was saying:
he*d meet me when his'office Is just:
around the corner from the station,
and he knows I don’t expect him trawaste time* standing about waiting fur;
a train that may be late.
The third queer thing was that tberawas no business of iplne he could bra .
needing to see me about, and If It werra
business of his, he’d ask it as a favor..
It was then that my eye slid up to thra
date and I saw It had been sent from.
New York. Well. If he were in NewYork, why halin’t he telephoned me oecome up to the house?
I wish I could say it flashed over me?

thought It queer, and I was puzxledx

sage, I should have packed my suit­

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 &amp; 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 &amp;
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

ENDORSED AT HOME.

Such Proof as Tills Should Convince
Any Nashville Citizen.
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
&amp; 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."

Birds Driven by Storms.
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

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.

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.
Blunders almost in­
evitably occur, some­

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.

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

Is the new invention in sweepers and sweeps better
than any sweeper yet swept with. Takes no elec­

oil it.£ So-o-o simple— there is nothing to wear
out. ^Only weighs six pounds; any child can oper­
ate it.
You can take one home, try it a couple of days, and
if you would rather hate to part with it just come in
and pay for it and we will let you keep it and we
will buy some more.

Don't you think that is doing as we would like to
be done by?

You want a silo that will allow
your silage to ferment properly and
one that will not rob the green corn
of its juices. You need a silo that
will offer the greatest protection
against fire, wind, rain and snow.

durable and permanent. The BqM
IN-DE-6TR-LCT-O is such, and last
but not least, a silo you can erect
yourself without expensive help.

in Lakeview Cemetery

We

wish to announce to the citizens of Nashville and vicinity that un­

less the burial places in this building are subscribed for now, it will be impossible to secure them
after the building is commenced, as we only build for those who subscribe. The location of the burial places
is selected when the subscription is made, so it is important that you secure them before the best ones are
gone.
.

Anyone who desires burial places or wants to look over the photo­
graphs and plans of the building, should call up the Commercial Hotel or mail Mr. J. W. Flowers a postal
card, giving their name. He will call on them at once. We are willing at all times to give any information
in regard to the Mausoleum.

Am I hitched up right, or am 1 a
round peg In a square hole?
Do I feel every drop of blood an|
every tt&gt;er in me tugging away at my
ambition, saying "Amen" to my work?

Am I barking op my chance In Ilfs
In. every possible way or am I eliding
along the lines of leant resistance?
Am I- keeping myself fit to do tbs
biggest thing iMMcslble to me every day
of my life?
Am I working along the line of my
talent or am 1 getting my living by my
weakness Instead of my strength?
Am I strengthening my weak points,
making my strong points stronger and
eliminating the things which are keep­
ing me back, the enemies of my suc­
cess?

Do I decide things quickly, finally, or
am I forever on the fence, fearing to
make definite decisions which I cannot
reconsider?
Have I the initiative which begins
things without being told to, which
does things without waiting for others'
instructions?

Do I dare attempt the thing I in­
stinctively feel capable of doing and
know that I ought to do?
Have I the courage which dares to
branch out In an original way. dares to
make mistakes that may humiliate me
If I should happen not to succeed?

Do I try to develop that bigger man
back of the smaller man I am by obey­
Ing the God urge that ever bids me up
and on to greater endeavor?

The man, who loves a dog and
a pipe, has two staunch friends
that never fail him in good luck or
in bad. They give all and ask
nothing in return. Day by day
they become nearer and dearer to
him. The man who has not a dog
and a pipe has missed two of the
greatest things this good old world
can give.

A coarse, brutal nature is detected

Fingers that are small but not thin

Big Money in Fruits
The last few years have been big-money year* for all who
have had fruits of any klud to sell. And all agree that still
greater returns will come to fruit growers of the future, especially
during the next five years.
Plant all you can find room for thi* spring, but remember that
good fruit stocks are very, very scarce because of the great cur­
tailment of plantings tn nurseries during the war period.
Be careful where you buy. your stock, and order it now *o as
to be sure of it. I can now offer you all the best varieties in the
very best grades at remarkably low price*.
I represent the well known old reliable firm,

Chase Brothers Company, The. Rochester Nurseries, Rochester, N. Y.
They grow and ship their own stock, all guaranteed even to In­
clude an absolutely free replacement ot any trees or plants tailing
to grow.
Buy the best and be sure of good results rather than buy
"just trees” and always be sorry. And again I say: Order Now.
Let me show you a Hue ot "Real Nursery Stock."

Hillcrmtt people have not yet for­
gotten the eccentricities of Peter
Tromp. 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 &lt;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&amp;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. .

tbe boy happen to be taken away before the policy Is matured

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

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

citement and pleasure when ahe bade

of the ring on her Unger in the moon­

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?

1 recognized monsieur’s voire!
I had the presence of mind to stifle
my curiosity and slip back Into my
flat, noiselessly shutting the door. Was
he merely coming to lock me in, or
had he been listening? My forebod­
ings every moment increased, for up
to one o’clock—when I went to bed—
he had failed to lock me In.
CHAPTER XII.

The Capture.
That night nothing happened—at
least to me; but somehow the periods
when nothing happened were more
alarming than when he was boldly at­
tacking. Ynu may imagine, if you can,
what I went through on Saturday I My
one diversion was to rehide the dia­
monds. Thia time—after I had taken
them out of the hyacinths and poked
a thimble among the stems—I sealed
them In an envelope and thumb-tacked
it to the bottom of a sideboard .drawer.
The drawers sledded In and out on run­
ners deep enough to allow the enve­
lop to pass. All day long I kept think­
ing, “What will happen if monsieur
doesn't take the bait?” It seems
strange to me now, but I never once
asked myself, “What will happen if he
does 7’
The last half hour before Billy came
was positively the longest In my life,
and when the bell did finally ring I
was shot through the heart and ready
to die.
I came to life immediately, whis­
pered through the door, “Who’s
there?" and heart!. “Ann Preswick"—
the password we’d agreed on.
“Then he hasn’t killed you I" were
my first words.
“Who?

I thought Billy was joking and made
no reply.
' “Very Interesting man,” mused Billy.
“Not at all the sort of person you’d
expect to find in a diamond robbery.
Wonderful knowledge of European pol­
itics—and American politics, too."
“Billy, what do ycu mean?" I de­
manded
“Why, I took your ‘mossoo* home
to his hotel last night—and—"
“You didn’t’" I gasped.
“Of courae I did! Why not? You
don’t suppose I’d go off and leave him
here to murder you. do you?" Billy
was making the most out of his story,
I could see.

F ever men are “Tom” and “Bill” to each other,

pipes go their best, ’tis when Velvet’s in the

For Velvet is a mighty friendly smoke.
Kentucky Burley is the leaf that Nature made
for pipes. Wholesome and hearty, honest as
the day. And Velvet is that same good Burley leaf,
brought to mellow middle age.

For eight long seasons Velvet “meditates” in
wooden hogsheads, throwing off the rawness of
“young” tobacco—truly “ageing in the wood.” Out
Velvet comes—cool, calm and generous—the tobacco
Nature made good, kept good and made better.

Velvet’s sweetness is the sweetness of good
tobacco, not ‘put on” like “frosting” on a cake. Its
mildness comes from natural ageing, not from having
the life baked out. Its fragrance is true tobacco fra­
grance, not a perfume. And Velvet makes an A
Number One cigarette. Roll one.

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.
Lovingly,
Rutji.

All gasoline engines are good for sortiething, but
some are worth a great deal more than others. Some
are over rated and some are stronger than rated. Some
run on less fuel and oil than others. Some are simpler
to operate. Any of them beat hand work and accom­

Give Me a Friendly,

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.

-------farmers of this community have been
improving the late fine-weather by
plowing for spring crops.
Some of ‘the young men of this
village have organized a gymnasium
and rented the room under D. C.
Griffith’s store, which they are to fit
■p aad use for that purpose and as
a club room.
.
.
Messrs. Lewis Durkee and H. M.
Lee have formed a co-partnership
for the purpose of buying and sell­
ing real estate, making loans, insur­
ing and collecting. They have rent­
ed fr. C. Boise’s b.uildlng, bought a
new safe and made all necessary ar­
rangements for an extensive business.
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. Already
a greater part of the amount has
been subscribed.

By Chas. H. Raymond.
There’s a land away up north afar.
A land of Ice and snow,
Where the only indigenous thing
Is a grease-soaked Eskimo.
They say there’s a pole up there
somewhere
In the land of Ice and snow;
To find just where, they long have
sought
In the land of the Eskimo.
They’ve sailed all o’er those icy seas
Where the arctic breezes blow.
And lived on dog and boot-leg soup
As they tramped both to and fro.
Long years they’ve sought in vain to
find
This pole in the land of snow.
And many a chap’s took hfs final nap
In the land of the Eskimo.
Some say this pole is a tamarac,
The token of the G. O. ”
Some other fellows swear
It is made of hickoree.

Baptist Church Note*.
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.

Orvie was a pleasant, manly little
fellow, loved by all who knew him.
His smiling face was always the pic­

his little hands were able to do and
be made bls way Into all our hearts

the sorrowing parents and their chil­
dren. who are left’ to mourn their
loss. They have the tender sympa­

The funeral was private, with ser­

The above is the finest power washer in its class.
The wringer swings to three positions. The washer
throws out of gear and in again as the cover to the tub
is raised, without stopping the engine. The benches
hold two tubs-which, when the washing is over, can be
put away. Both benches fold up so the whole machine
takes little room. Durable and first-class, and only $50.

YO8EMITE VALLEY, CALIFORNIA.

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. A. Mitchell
---- E. . Attorney
----------- Palmer,
General
of,be
United -States:
"Hon. A. Mitchell Palmer,
"Attorney General,
"Washington, D. C.
"Sir:—
"The weekly newspaper was the
first public voice to be raised in tbe
wilderness that is now America. The
voice has always been heard upon
the side of high patriotism, good cit­
izenship, and public and private mor-

Don't wait until you are
IGS beautiful valley—now a part of

National park, by the
TwayYosemite
—ls one of nature’s most wonder­

"It remains today the most potent
weapon tbe republic "wields against
the forces of evil, and tbe most
powerful moulder of public opinion.
"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.

ough investigation of condition!:, and

are necessary to save the life of this

ful works of art. The valley is only
eight miles long and lew than two
miles wide. The park erabntees a do­
main alrnut 38 by 48 miles. 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.
. Standing on the summit of Sentinel
Dome, the magnificence of the vista
of the valley that bursts upon the eye
compels silence. Perhaps no valley In
the world combines so much that is so
sublimely beautiful. ‘ It Is "a bite of

“Story—tnle—narrative," Billy ex­
plained. “Une hlstolre,” on which
monsieur brightened nnd declared:
"Cent une veritable hlstolre.’’
"True when it happened," translated
Billy. “But what I don’t sw is, where
you come In on the.diamond deal."
"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

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

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.

‘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 &gt;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."

ouId were It

In these days when the average edl- j Hrnnrstrad." She merely noted 'Wltlon of a city dally contains In one col-.? ally that Joliu seemed to enjoy Mining
ocean.and In the next recurds the safe
delivery of a deceased aunt's remain*
to Mr. Blank, of Rlnnktown, via parcel ;
post. nt tho trifling cost of forty-three
cents, we are (•oni|»cl1ed to describe I
f'hoelic Hurlbun As an anachronism.
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.
On the 27th of November, In l"i20,
Ferdinand Magellan, the Portuguese
navigator, entered the Pacific ocean
through the straits which bear his
name. 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.

"No, monsieur. When you accused

I suppose you accused Mrs. Delario
of the same thing? Didn't you accuse
her of taking jewels from Claire—just
as you did me—without specifying
what kind of jewels?"
"Oul—yes. Naturally, I do not
specify, for ze reason if she find ze
diamonds, she know to what I refer;
but If you have find zem, I do not tell
for what I seek."
“Well, that’s It, I do believe!" I ex­
claimed in the tone of having discov­

"You said Jewels and she thought you
meant what we should mean by It—is

“Ah, so zat Is ze way of it!" he
cried, popping off his chair in a hurry.
"I see it Is jtnme error of Idiom of ze

The old man sank upon a stump be- i
fore die door of the abyl arxl rested his
gray, stubbled chin on the handle of
his pick. 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. Look at those bare
trees. They Uft their broken arms to
the sky and beg for pity, but they’ll
never live. And those skulls-^they
haunt me. What is the use? Always
a struggle. 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.
What kind of mert and
women will they be? And still we go
on working here, because we’ve no
where else to go. qpd we think we
have to I Ke.” His gray head sank in
his hands.
Mart he placed the pot of soup on
the table and gave him a wooden
spoon. “Thnfs what Louisa was say­
ing this evening. That’s die way ev­
erybody feels when the dark comes
on."
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? My little girt came there
to pick some flowers this afternoon.
I kissed tier hand; sh£ laughed, and
thought n poppy tickled her.”
He
smiled. ’’If they conld know—"

A bugle whispered somewhere In the
dark. The shapes fell Into ranks; the
ghostly army marched.
Before the
homes the spirits took their posts and
waited for the zero hour to come.
From far they saw the menace creep­
ing up—vaguely, until the moon broke
through the mist and showed It grim
and hideous—the army of Despair and
faithless Doubt, that sought to drive
the people from the land.
The siege »n« hard, but through the

cried. “I was fnoliab Iasi night. It

Dwarfs in History.

Social Worm _Turns.

Dwarfs, until very recent days, have
been highly regarded and much sought
after. 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&gt; the unnatural dwarf.

First Woman Journalist.
Mra. Anne Royali. born in Maryland,
In 1769. was not only the first woman
Journalist, but the first of her sex to
own and edit a newspaper. She was
the widow of a Virginia revolutionary,
war officer. and appeared in Washing­
ton in 1824 for the purjibse of trying
to secure a government pension. Fall­
ing in this, she started a small weekly
sheet which was first called the “Wash­
ington Paul Pry” and inter the "Hunt­
ress." She had met personally and
talked ‘with every president from
Washington to Lincoln, and was the
terror of politicians.

Your Shoes
Should be selected with care. You cannot afford
to buy interior goods at present prices. Select a
standard brand of shoe—one that you can depend
on to give the maximum wear ana comfort.

You know the lines we handle. There’s none
better than the Hamilton-Brown line for ladies,
the Crawford shoes for men and boys or the

for years, we know their quality, and we don’t

Baptist Church Notes.
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!"
We again remind our friends of
the Sunday’s engagements, "lest we
forget."
Divine worship at 10:0u.
Bible school to follow at 11:15.
An ordination council is summon­
ed to meet in Grand Rapids on 29th

ed to send delegates. It will be held

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.

“Universal training Is not a move

peacefulness that we desire most of
all. The very fac'. that we are pre­

nothing frightful or gloomy about
universal training; on the contrary
It will cure many of our social and
economic ills.”

Power Plant
Farm Use
T last an electric lighting plant has been developed which
can operate belt-drive machines, charge its own batteries,
and supply electric current for incandescent lamps and
electrical appliances all at the same time. 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.

running. It is so simply con­

easily understood. It re­
quires such little space that
it can be installed anywhere
without being in the way. It

The factor of economy alone

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

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. '

The Burden of Care.
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.'
She landed right in front of me;
Gave a bow and made a plea:
;
Dear Ma'am our load Is very small,
But ‘is a ‘heavy ....................
load for all.

THIRD ANNUAL

DOLLAR DAY SALE
SATURDAY, MAR. 27
HERE’S little use of having half a dozen take sales every year.
Here’s a one day sale that is a sale, a sale with real bargains, a
sale where you can save money. We are not compelled to have
this sale. The Ohly excuse we can make tor having it is: we appre­
ciate your year’s business and want to have a little celebration all of
our own. We want you all to come and see us: if you don’t know us,
we will get acquainted. If you only want a dollar’s worth of sugar,
don’t be afraid to ask us for it. We have it to sell, and we also have
a little stunt which Fike won’t print. We’ll be glad to tip you off, but
it’s a secret; don’t tell even your wife. Read the list below and re­
member, we have “many other articles too numerous to mention.”

ances.
This Hirth Krause shoe will outwear
the hobnails and will never pinch the
foot nor appear clumsy.

They are made from leather, scientifi­

tannery, are moisture and acid proof as
near as leather can be made, with double
vamp and three-quarter full vamp

The man who works will appreciate
these advantages. Manufacturing as we
do, complete “from hide to shoe”, we

-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.'

�’■women &gt;
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&gt; |
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.

Easter Program.
Sunrise service at 6 a. m.
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.

West African Superstition.
In West Africa It Is not unusual to
' see a native crouched over a stream
talking to the “Spirit of the Water,"
and In that country. too, the traveler
is unwise who looks behind him at, any
sudden sound, for he will probably he­
boid a native with the Fangarea
charm, and will see him beat with a
bamboo hammer upon a tiny drum
held above a live animal. As the trav­
eler looks around the charm Is struck,
and It Is the belief of the natives that,
whatever part of the animal Is Injured,
the human victim will suffer in the
same region.

- Concerning the Sabbath.

According to the Bible the Lord cre­
ated the world in six days and rested
on the seventh. As Saturday Is the
seventh day of the week, the Jews ob­
serve it as the Sabbath, as do certain
other denominations following the old
Mosaic law. When Christ said : “The
old things have passed away: behold,
they are become new," his followers
regarded this as a command to change
the old order, and they made the day
of Ms resurrection the Sabbath.

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

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 &gt;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 &gt;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
&gt;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 &gt;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.

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

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.

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.

■ 11/HEN the subject of tractors comes to mind, the usual
’ • first thought is of a machine designed to haul a plow.
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

Need a new pair of shoes to complete your Easter
attire? If you do, we want to remina you again
that you will economize by buying quality.
There is a difference in shoes. The shoe of quality
looks good when you buy it, and retains the appear­
ance of quality as long as you wear it..
The ' cheap" shoe looks good when you buy it, is
“rusty" in a short time, and a wreck long before you
are ready to discard it.
We have dress shoes for men, women, miss­
es and boys that can't be beat for quality
and are very moderately priced. Call in

California’s

The State of California has
placed her unqualified O-K on
Horse-Shoe Tires by specifying
them exclusively for all state
owned cars.
This sixty-five thousand dollar contract was placed after Horse-Shoe
Tires had proven their actual superi­
ority. If a tire can make so good on
the heat shrouded deserts, the snow
clogged mountain passes and jagged
mountain trails of California, do you
wonder it is making so good right here?
Let us ttil you more about them.

THK CYCLONE'S DEAD.
They have found their Eldorado
. And will hear no more tornadoes
Sweeping o’er the fair and fertile
lands.
Raise a monument above them
That will say their friends all lov­
ed them;
Write an epitaph above them the
world will understand.
When the storm wu raging fiercest
And the earth was all a-qulver.
Carrying everything before it like
some angry, tumbling river;
When the awful roar was deafen­
ing,
And cruel clouds obscured the cky.
Then It was these loved ones perish­
ed. never knowing how or why.
Oft* ve think of Edith Cavell,
How the bullets pierced her form;
Now we think of Edith Belson,
.
How she battled with the storm.
At the dawning of the morning,
When the sun appears so grand,
Let us hope they view the dawning
From a brighter, fairer land.

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.

The Minister Never Fails You
Every officer of the Government with a war
message to deliver appealed to the ministers first
of all.
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.

And of these pitifully inadequate salaries, how much do
you contribute? Nothing if you are outside the church;
an average of less than 3c a day if you are a church
member.
All of us share in the benefits of Christian ministers to
the community. They marry us; bury us; baptize our
children; visit us when we are sick. In their hands is the
spiritual training of the youth.

The church must serve mankind

its own community. The church
must live to help the community, in­
stead of existing as a parasite upon

HIRTY denominations cooperating in the Inter­

needs. No business could have done it more scientifi­
cally.
They have united to prevent the possibility of duplica­
tion or waste. At least a million dollars will be saved
by the fact that thirty individual campaigns are joined
in one united effort.
Rarh denomination has arranged its budget under six
main heads:

Decision of Character.
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. When a firm, decisive spirit is rec­
ognized. it is curious to see how the
apace clears around a man, and leaves
him room and freedom.

Famous Statue of Liberty.
In 1880. on the 28th of October, the
Statue of Liberty, presented by France
to the United States and placed on
Bedloe’s island in New York harbor,
was unveiled. The total height of the
colossal statue Is 306 feet. The prdeatal rises 155 feet and the statue tow­
ers 151 feet above it

"Scarcity of labor and high price
of seed will themselves have a very
serious effect upon the acreage of
potatoes planted this year, and if the
growers have to fear boycotts the sit­
uation will become much worse. Con­
sumers must realize that the only
way to insure an adequate supply of
foodstuffs for next year is to encour­
age the growers to plant as large
acreages as possible. Insuring rea­
sonably high prices, and avoiding un­
just boycotts are the only means of
securing the large acreage needed.

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

Mrs. Delario demurred, but I overruled
her and presented Billy.
Billy’s relief and Joy at the rediscov­

amusing and he made himself corre­
spondingly agreeable to Claire’s chap­
eron. He seemed conveniently to for­

only point we any of us attempted to
elucidate was the new man's connec­

somehow the key to monsieur's sudden
disappearance—and I was not a Uttle

npHE bright spring days are here, the sun in shining on
1 both sides ot the fence, the birds ot the country-side
are caDing, and you are itching to get out and “GO.”
It will make you enviotis to pass all those bright, new-looking
cars. You really should bring your car in now and have it treated to
a new coat of paint, which will add worlds to its appearance and dol­
lars to its value. I can make the “Old Bus” shine like a new tin roof.

Will Paint Your Car Any Color Desired
I can refinish your car in any
color you wish, and will do the
work in a first-class manner.
All you need do is drive your

TIMELY HINTS.
If you do much night driving, be
sure that your head lamps are prop­
erly focused. The whole efficiency
of the lights depends upon this.
See that the lamp reflectors are
clean and polished. Dust works In­
to the lamps and perhaps you wonder
why they are not so bright as here­
tofore.
Keep oil measures clean and in a
clean place. No grit should be per­
mitted to reach the oil reservoir of
the engine.
If you suspect carbon knock, do not
delay having the carbon removed.
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.
It surely will prolong the life of that
important member.
Watch the magneto and generator
coupling?. The bolts work loose and
by a timely inspection you may avoid
the delay and expense of a tow-in.
Some time, while exploring the
lower regions of the chassis, see that
the brake rods have pull springs to
insure full release when intended. A
hot brake will be avoided.
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.

BUICK THREE-PASSENGER ROADSTER
E BUICK Model K-Six-44 possesses marked ad­
vantages for the man or woman who wishes a car
of limited passenger capacity, with an exception­
ally roomy and comfortable driving compartmtet. 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.

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.

Features for Consideration

For several years the Ford Model T. 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 &lt;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 &lt; 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.

Worm Drive
Until the Ford Model T One Ton Truck was placed upon the
market, the irth-m-drive was known only in the most expensive
trucks, but Inasmuch as the worm-drive Is the Ideal and most
reliable transmitter of power for motor trucks, it was placed in
our truck. This final drive of the worm type assures more posi­
tive driving power and greater wearing qualities than are found
in any other type of power transmission.

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 &lt;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 &gt;800 to &gt;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&lt;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.

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

Meanwhile what Is happening to
our churches? Many of them are go­

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

She told him she couldn’t at the mo­

she was too worried—too confused.
• "Of course,” he agreed. "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!,

nimseir on a

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

23x 31-2 Fisk tires. On July 2, 1919,
with odometer showing a mileage of

up for a considerable greater dis­

OBITUARY.

Albert E. 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.
His passing leaves a vacant place

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.

This is your safeguard in buying here—
aren’t we the kind of a store you want
to know—today?

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.
All honor to the mother of man!
May her days and her joys upon
earth be many, and may her home in
the nest world be one worthy of the
greatest handiwork of God.

MAMMOTH CAVE, KENTUCKY.
AMMOTH CAVE, ttye largest of a

M
county, Kentucky. Is said to be the

largest cave known. It extends for
almost a mile below the surface of the
earth and contains about 100 miles of
passage ways. Here are displayed
perhaps the greatest and grandest ex­
amples in the world of the wonderful
work of water In underground sculptur­
ing.
Its discovery whs another case of
the hunter and the bear—■date about
1800. The bear, wounded, crawled
into the cave and escaped. The hunt­
er followed and discovered the cave.
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

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.

millions of dollars in sugar without
ever moving the sugar even from one
warehouse to another, and the penal­

of us, because sugar will surely re­

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. Isn’t It. grandmother?" she
asked after a horrified moment "Was

“I know—I appreciate," he cut in.
“Now attend, madame, to J-y argu­
ment: Sree sings must be considered."
He checked them off on his fingers.
“First, she confesses she has zoze dia­
monds and will return sera to selr
rightful owner. Second, medame will
deny absolutely xat she have ever seen
zoze diamonds. It may be ze truse—
It may not be—ze point is. xat she de­
nies all knowledge. You and Monsieur
Rivers have already told me ze diffi­
culty I meet here—if she have find

fesses to you everysing about ze find­
ing of zoze diamonds, but—you are
her friend—she Induces you not to be­
tray her secret—you promise her you
will not. A most difficult position for
yon, madame, If zat last is ze case, Ik

"Decidedly," I remarked dryly.
•Oul. And now I beg you to appre­
ciate zls evidence of my esteem for
yourself—I wish to spare you all pos­
sible humiliation, and yet to retain
your cooperation wis me.
"Madame. If zoze diamonds are not

if you are her friend, you can save her
now. 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

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

said smoothly:
"I appreciate the delicacy with
which you have put the case to me

can’t tell you how I appreciate it—■"
and there I stuck I

-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

“Your obligations to Mrs. Delarlo

“Oul—I appreciate It—ze situation

But zis man—he calls upon you and
he asks you some questions about my

“He got nothing out of me—why, of

row—I wouldn’t even let him In."
“He returns? And he goes perhaps

she tells him’ Claire is in her house I”
Monsieur bounded np at that, white
as a sheet and I was just trying to

My reply was to laugh In the man’s
face. He draw back a step.
“If you come here pestering me any
more about anything,” I retorted, “I
shall telephone for police protection. I
don’t know who you are, or what you
are after, but I do know that when
you came here the first time, you told
me a pointblank lie and that Is enough
for me."
He changed his tactics so suddenly
it almost took my breath. He came
close to the door and admitted: “That
Is true—I did tell you a lie. It was
rendered necessary by the extreme
difficulties of the case in hand."
“Well—and what was the lie?"
"I told you I was looking for the
daughter—knowing that you must have
some little Interest in her and would
respond to my note and allow me to
see you. I wished to find tire daugh­
ter, but only that I might find—her fa-

credentials," and bowed himself off.
He went down the stalM without ring*
Ing for the elevator.
I had totally forgotten monsieur and
the diamonds—alone together—and my
heart dropped into my boots as 1

“Are you ill?” I asked, forJie looked

He pointed to indicate the man who
had just left and gasped out, “It is a

to the nearest chair and crumpled up
in a heap.

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.

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

down the various streets. When the
work was completed the canal was

"But haven’t yon got some proofs on

the words at me. “Mon Dieu—what is

drew out his handkerchief and wiped
his brow. "What does it mutter if I

“Why not let Mrs. Delarlo take hex

bright suggestion from me.
He met it with scorn. “How far does

I realized that that was the way he

me the decoy telegram—but I did not
remind him of it. Instead, I admit­

“Yes—I see. it could be done. It
wouldn’t be safe.”
“Zey care not for zat,” he broke in.
“Mon Dieu! How is she to be saved?"
He looked at me and there were tears
In his eyes.
The only thing I could suggest was,
“We might appeal Cor police protec­

last week that was a bit out of the

and the tiny rodents attracted con­

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

Billy came at nine. 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

cause she lost the ‘papers.’ I don’t

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

and sat down in the reception room—

“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.

He’d gotten out in the basement, in­

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

“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

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-

“And nothing is going to happen to

“The emperor? Tm sure I can’t say
—I don’t know anything about the

He reflected a few moments, and
then with one of his funny looks, he
remarked: *Td rather have you for a

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

denly the words, “They were stolen

along to remember, and couldn’t—

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!

her. Was it for this, the visit had

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

call'her hostess—spoiled it all.
“I am going to be perfectly frank,

said sharply.

“I don’t think," Rhoda replied, “that

“Not," Aunt Cynthia reproached—“a

"He doesn’t live In our town,” sba

to be directed to the “button departs

WOOL POOL.
i
Hundreds cf thousands of pounds i
of wool already are assembled in the I
state for the Michigan State Farm
Bureau wool pool, the first strictly
co-operative enterprise of the kind
ever attempted in Michigan. The
big warehouse in Lansing purchased
by the farm bureau for the pool al­
ready is proving inadequate in size
and additional quarters in possibly
Detroit, -Jackson,
Kalamazoo or
Grand Rapids will have to be ob­
tained. Early estimates for the,
handling of 2.000,000 pounds of
wool in the pool now appear ultra­
conservative. All of the 150,000
pounds of wool now in the Lansing
warehouse have bedn trucked in by
farmers living even as far away as
100 miles. The opportunity they
have of watching the grading of the
wool is certain to have the effect of

“Oh. Lesbnal run—run. 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

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

left them, promising that they should

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

hours to be admitted to the presence
of the man who visited their town

Private Napoleon Booker Washing­

asked him what he wanted.

The nurse replied that there was
such a person there, adding, 'But he’s

The colonel’s negro orderly was

"No—I mustn’t stop a minute—take

LUNCHEON
FOR TWO
B, EVELYN LEE
(Copyrtcht, 1»M. Western -Newspaper UnU*&gt;

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 «&lt;
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&lt;
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

carrying In

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 &lt;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."
Her companion regarded her fond­
ly. “Miss Davis," he said. “I bar*

I their new gray and groen striped uni­
forms, gave Freeport a drubbing at
Freeport Thursday, thus starting the
season right. They were accompan­
ied to Freeport by a bunch of roost­
ers that made the Freeport fans
wonder what had struck town.
‘'lx?fty” McDonald of Charlotte was
in the box for Nashville and whiio
ithe Freeport lads touched him for
ten hits, they were kept so well scat­
tered that but six runs resulted.
Nashville garnered, eleven hits off
Kocher, who pitched for Freeport,
and amassed eight runs, three of
which came in the ninth Inning,
when they were badly needed.

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.

▲ group of Are girts were sitting be­
fore an open fireplace in the living
room of Edith Half’s country home.
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

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&lt;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

The
Refugee
By Katharine Eggleston Roberts
(C«pyTicbt. IMS. 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

Mathilda pushed her hair out of her

anyway. It Just gets mussed up again.
We used to be someone when you
were lecturing In the college.
Now
the college Is gone, the town Is gone,

Why wouldn't she teach

There was a light in Verbeek's cot­
tage. Suddenly bls mind pictured the
interior. 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

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;

her forehead and neck. Hairpins
stuck out nt grotesque angles. He

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

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

very devoted friend of long standing.

he had asked her for the fifth and,
according to him, the final time, to

“It may not be the modem Idea,

stood in the lantern-hung balcony be­
tween dances, “but I’ve a queer notion
that I I like to have you step from

dilemma. It really was one thing In
Jim’s favor that he was so depehdable

DAY PROCLAMATION.

By the Governor.
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.

American Merchant Marine
The war resulted In the creation of a great merchant
marine—10,000.000 tons of American ships which cost us
$3,000,000.000.
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.

EVERYBODY CORDIALLY INVITED

BACK TO THE FARM.

Is the Ude beginning to turn?
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.

Leona Allen, an 18-year-old miss
from Coldwaller who has been at.
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.

Sunday morning Rey. 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. It marks the dawning of a
day when principle counts more than

After an elaborate supper furnish­

society, acted as toastmaster and
in his genial way welcomed all the
invited guests and presented Mr.
Glasgow who, without gloves, gave a
most interesting talk on “The Doctor
from the Standpoint of the Public”.
This was followed by Dr. B. C. Swift
of Middleville on the subject, “The
Public from the Doctor’s Standpoint.”
Both addresses were intensely inter­
esting and a better understanding
of the relation between the doctor
and the public wap had by all present.
Short talks were given by all the
visiting doctors from Eaton county
and a cordial invitation given to all
to attend their annual picnic at Pine
lake in July. Assurance was given
that all would be present.

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.

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.

There’s a Special Ingersoll
for Each of These Folks
T&gt;ID YOU ever “get fitted" to a watch? 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.
&gt;
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

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&gt;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

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

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,

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&lt;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

NOTICE TO DOG OWNEBS.
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&lt;fd
costs.

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

glad to be present.
The evening is Thursday; the hour
is 7.30.

WHAT THE LAW IS.
To the Edltort Nashville News.
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

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

Women Who Take
Pride in Their Baking

Michigan are justly famous for their achievements
in baking delicious bread, biscuits, rolls, etc., for the
home. For generations the fair women of the
“Wolverine State” have been using

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.
Use LILY WHITE for bread, biscuits and pastry and you’ll
be proud of your baking. Women who use LILY WHITE
FLOUR find it absolutely satisfactory. It is guaranteed.

There’s a wide bare field where ghostly trees
Plead for the mercy of Heaven.
They lift their broken arms and sigh
Against the pitiless, cold, gray sky,
But their prayers are hushed in the cloudy seas,
And the crows are flying over.

,

Exterior view of the handsome Exposition Auditorium, San Francisco, where the Democrats will nominate their
national ticket

E. I. EDWARDS

In the desolate waste, the shell-pits gap;
Their wounded lips bleed poppies.
’
They are rimmed with rusted guns and swords,
• With bits of cloth and broken boards,
And their waters mirror the broad wing-flap
Of the crows that are flying over.

O’er the battle plain, there’s a fierce race
Of the death birds seeking booty. .
Together they rush and dip and dart
In the midst of the bleak field’s aching heart,
There’s a lonely cross that marks the place
The black crows are swooping over.

“Chirrup, chirrup." remarked the
canary In the living room.
“Chirrup, chirrup," responded the
canary in the dining room.
“Chirrup, chirrup," observed the
canary In the kitchen.
"Chirrup, chirrup, chirrup, chirrup,”
echoed a chorus of canaries from the
three bedrooms, the bathroom and the
library.
There was a yellow bird for every

Aunt Elberta raised the birds be­

there were additions to her family of

Phoebe was sitting at the kitchen
window, looking Into the greet forest
which fringed the house at one side
and the back. She was waiting for
the water to heat so she could wash
the dinner dishes. The telephone had
called her aunt to town, a half-mile

Phoebe who spent the summers with
her relative, had offered to put the
house to rights.
As she sat there she fell Into a rev­

her full red Ups, and something like
a blush showed through the tan of
her face. A shaft of sunlight, finding
Its way through the window, blended
with her hair, which wa$ of a soft
yellow hue.
The blush was occasioned by her
thoughts, which had to do with Philip

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
&lt; 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

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*. &lt;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

are after, you swine I But you get none

You all know Cramer, don’t you?

That’s Frank Cramer, called "Banty" for short, because he is short,

until he got back home, when he for­

climb the woodpile, but Banty stuck

up against the barn, which refused j

One Man Cultivates 20 Acres a Day with the New

Due to its high clearance, 2054
inches, the Moline Universal Tractor
is perfectly adapted for cultivating,
enabling one man to cultivate corn or
other row crops, two rows at a time,
at the rate of from 14 to 20 acres a
^The Moline Universal attaches di­
rect to the cultivator, and forms a
compact unit with it that is con­
trolled from the seat of the imple­
ment, where the operator must sit to
do good work, dodging individual
hills by shifting the cultivator gangs
with his feet
The position of the operator direct­
ly behind the right wheel of the trac­
tor gives him an unobstructed view
ahead. AH he has to &lt;io is to keep
the right wheel of the tractor a cer­
tain distance from the outside row
and the whole outfit will go properly.
An electrical governor permits the
engine to be slowed down to a snail's
pace for turning at the ends of row&lt;
or tor cultivating the first time over.

The outfit is easily sti
backed or
turned, and docs less
jc in tuming than horses. .
The cultivator has many features
which make its operation extremely
easy and effective. All who have
operated this outfit express surprise
and delight at the ease and simplicity
of operation.
Cultivating, however, is only one of
all the farm operations the Moline
Universal can do. It is light, but has
more than enough power to pull two
14-inch plow bottoms at high speed,
because all its weight is available for
tractlnn. The Moline Universal works
to full capacity throughout the entire
year. That’s why h really replace*
horses and enables one man to farm
more land than was ever before pos­
sible. It is the universal tractor that
does all farm work and solves the
farm help problem.
There are many other features of
this machine that will interest you.

bouse for a home.” he* ended angrily.
It was a very unfortunate remark
just nt that moment, and the tears
filled Mrs. Graham's eyes in spite of
her efforts to keep them back. "Very
well, if that's the way you feet I
think I had better earn my own liv­
ing—I did once without any trouble,
and you can have your Louse just as
you please," she said with sarcasm.
Her husband arose from his chair
nnd spoke severely: “Don't talk non­
sense; what Is the use of making a
fuss over nothing?"
“Nonsense—It's more nonsense to be
a slave for a man. $nd I'm tired of4t,”
ske flung back over her shoulder as
she hastened to the kitchen, partly to
attend to the cooking supper and part­
ly to hide the falling tears.
Presently her husband appeared at
the dining room door in hat and coat?
“You needn’t wait up for me; I have
• key. Good evening," he said coldly,
and was gone.
“Wait. Jim," she cried, but the front
door closed before she could finish tha
sentence.
Regardless of the over-brown chick­
en in the oven she put her head on the
kitchen table and wept.
“Oh. why did I ever say such things 1
But then be might have known that 1
didn't mean them, and he didn't seem
to care If I did leave; probably he’d
be glad," and a fresh flood of tears
came, but after a while she arose with
an air of determination, -and taking
the done dinner from the stove consult­
ed the mirror, to be confronted with
very red and swollen eyes, and her
new silk waist all spotted with tear­
drops.
Half an hour later, n veil hiding her
tear-stained ayes, she locked the door
nnd started for her dear cftiim Isa­
belle's apartments, to let Jim see ’thut
she could get along without him.
She hurried along the avenue. Intent
on taking the cur just coming in sight,
then a fail and a sharp pain in her
ankle.
From around the corner someone
api&gt;eared, and a familiar voice was in
her ear:
“Are you hurt. Puss? Tell me
quick.”
“Not much. Oh, Jimmy, where were
you?" she gasped.
“Just been walking around the block
the last hour," he replied carelessly.
With his arm to support her she hob­
bled home in silence, but once inside
the cheery living room the tears start­
ed afresh as her husband turned
towards the hall to Hang his hat and
overcoat. ’
“Don’t, please,” she cried; "just
throw ftiem anywhere. I—I love to
see them 'round; and, Jimmy. I was
all tired and cross, nnd I truly didn’t
mean it," she concluded from the
depths of his shoulder.
The dinner hud lust Its flavor, but
the diners were- radiantly happy
enough to overtook it, and a fragrant
cup of coffee made n pleasant finish.
“Jimmy," she said. “Just think, mar­
ried 'most a year and our first quarrel.
Wasnt’ it allly?"
“So silly it will be the larft,” said
Mr.'Graham lighting his cigar.
His wife, went softly over to his
chair and put her arms about his neck.
"We'll both do just ns we like, won't
we? And nobody ’ll fuss, for It’s truly
home, isn't it?”
She paused ns her husband for the
second time that evening, but now all
unresisting, drew her to his knee.
“It’s home where my little wife Is,"
he ended.

that can boast of an authority oo
planets.
As he studied the heavens Gordon
unconsciously placed himself in the
position of. Uranus. He was an out­
cast from Helen Bardwell's affections;
he was alone, far nt one side, while
her rich admirers he referred to as
Mercury, Venus. Mars, Jupiter. Saturn
and Neptune. They were pulling to­
gether for her.
On the night of December 16 about
eleven o’clock, Gordon sat in his study
reading. 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

especially when Helen was his part­
ner, but it was his duty to turn his
telescope, on the planet, which was
in a position most favorable for ter­
restrial inspection.
“Very well," said Helen. “If you
care more for your old star than for
me, go ahead. 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

many an evening, listening to his dis-

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.
Gordon smiled at these prophecies

She seated herself and he did like­

Gordon,” she said, Tm an awfully
stubborn gu\ but you see I’m yielding.
Tm sick of the bunch at the hotel.
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

the world. But here’s your note; It’s

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

Birds Cruel and Brave.

Birds are naturally cruel and with­
out feeling. DarwlAr most acute ob­
server. relates many Stances tif the
terrible wounds Inflicted nnd received.
It may he said that the relative cruel­
ty of the fighting bird Is as great al
that of the wildest animal. This vi­
cious attribute is only relieved by the'
indomitable courage they display. Tha
gamecock will fight literally to the
death.

Stone Used as Barometer.
There Is In the northern part of

Finland a curious stone which serves
the people Instead of a barometer.
This stone, which the Finns call nmakiur, turns black or a blackish gray
when bad weather Is approaching.
Fine weather has the effect of turning
It almost white. The Finns regard the
stone with superstitious reverence,
but the scientists say* that its changes
in color are due to salts contained Ln
its composition. '

Within Its girdling walls Constan­
tinople rises, like Rome on Its seven

the Bosporus.

Emerson in his essay on Nature।
says: “A* the gates of the forest the!

to leave his city estimates of great,

which shames our legions and reajity,
Which discredits our heroes."

Vast Size of the Sun.
It may surprise many people to
learn that the sun, which Is by no
means a large star, as stars go, could
easily contain within Its boundaries
the entire earth and moon and also
the distance between them. In fact,
three systems like that consisting of.
earth and moon could be stning out
in a row through the center of the stfn,
without coming within 50.000 miles of
bls surface on either side.

Nothing Pastime.
We should never speak of anything
Bs pastime, because it means that
we are doing the act In question for
the sole purpose of squandering time.
Every moment of our lives should be
devoted to such pursuits as will build
up our bodies and minds, our spiritual
and material Interests, and prepare
us to discern opportunity when It
comes, to the end that we make our
lives full of satisfaction to ourselves
and a blessing to the world In which we
live.—Exchange.
Private Park.
If the renr yard Is properly planted
with a border of flowering Shrubs and
perennial flowers^ has a velvety green
lawn and a few shade or fruit trees.
It will give the family a quiet, peace­
ful little private park, In which all
can enjoy the moonlight during the hot
summer evenings without making a
long, tiresome trip to the parks. This
is die height of pleasure afforded by
a well-planted home yard.

Girls Once Under Lock and Key.
In ancient Athens girls lived In the
Btrlc'est seclusion till their marriage,
kept virtually under lock and key.
They were seldom permitted to leave
. their homes, except on some great
festal occasion.
Powerless Knowledge.
Gee! but It’s a pity r. man never can

THE

SIGN

OF

LILY WHITE
“The Flour the Best Cooks Use

America’s Finest Milling Product
From the raw material to the sack, LILY WHITE is un­
surpassed. 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. This flour is guaranteed to give
not merely satisfaction, but to be the best flour you ever used.
Try LILY WHITE—you will be convinced. IT is famous as “The
Flour the Best Cooks Use.”

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&lt;l with nothing
more exciting than tne masterful key­
note address of Homer Cummings. In
which he outlined the issues on which

devoted almost exclusively to the
League of Nation*, and its point was

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&gt; 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&gt;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

tion of information os all Important
national questions of the day. open
to all political parties and through

the League of Nations. The minority

all had waited was the balloting e®.

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

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

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&gt;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

There1 were nearly one hundred present. Extra tables were used to carry the heavy load of eats. No one
complained of bugs, or snakes, prob­
ably because they were a temperance

PLOW FALL WHEAT LAND EAR­
LY, ADVISES M. A. C.
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.”

OBITUARY.

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.
We wish to express our sincere ap­
preciation to the friends and neigh­
bors for their kind assistance and ex­
pressions of sympathy during
cent bereavement.

CARD OF THANKS.
I wish to extend my heartfelt
thanks to my friends and neighbors
for the beautiful flowers, cheerful
letters and cards, to the Birthday
club for the beautiful flowers and
tokens of remembrance and to the
Rebekahs for the box of fruit sent
me. and to the friends who cams
to see me while in the hospital.
Mrs. Henry Barnes.

Johnny has three sisters, but nd
brothers, which is a constant source
of regret to the little man. When new
neighbors, with two boys, moved in
next door he was delighted and rushed
tn to his mother with, “Oh, mother,
there’s two brothers and even thelf
goat’s a boy, ’cause they call him
Billy.”

Fear to spend what we have, nobly
and on fit subjects, is a mean kind of
thing, but fear to squander and to
waste Is wholesome .and righteous.
Economy Is not miserliness, and there
is a grandeur about moderation which
is wanting In excess.

The best way to get up In the
world is always to net upon the
level.
Some men are merely flirting
with misfortune when they think
they're wooing Dame Fortune.
The world may owe every man
a living but who wants the kind
of living the world hands out to
a lazy man?

The best thing the world does
is to get along without men who
think the world can’t get along
without them.

The way to make good these dreams
was to marry. And all Peggy had to
do tet be married was to say, “Yes,

bring herself to the point of say­
ing, “Yes. Henry," because she want­

one say yes to a question one bad

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

expected to pass from youth to old

Peggy looked very desirable ns she sat

Peggy sighed. Perhaps any old home
was better than no home at all. Brave­

slowly.
The doorbell rang violently. Peggy
jumped np to open the door, not sorry

a tall, broad-shbuldered person who
smiled with evident pleasure as he

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

Peggy hesitated. “N-o-o." she said
“Well. I’ll be around about eight

She had come close to him, her eyes
bright with hope. They were in a se­
cluded corner of the porch. There
were no bouses across the street and
no one was passing. She reached up
her hands and clasped them on his
shoulders while her eyes gazed up
into hto, full of loving expectancy.
Hto face, already embarrassed,
flushed crimson. He drew her quiver­

Results That lArt Are What Appeal
to Nashville People.
Kidney sufferers in Nashville want
more than temporary relief.
They want results that last—
Results like Mrs. Atchison tells
about.
Hers was a thorough test.
Three years is a long time.
Doan’s Kidney Pills have stood the
test and stood it, well.
Why experiment with an untried
medicine?
People here in Nashville have
shown the way.
Read Mrs. Atchison’s story:
Mrs. H. G. Atchison, retired farm­
er. N. Main street., says: "I suf­
fered from dull, nagging backaches
and distressing pains , across my
kidneys. I had headaches and dlzzy spells. My kidneys acted irregu­
larly, too. I bought Doan’s Kidney
Pills at Von W. Furnlss' drug store,
and they acted promptly, removing
tbe backache and correcting the oth­
er symptoms of kidney trouble."
IAmting Results
Over three years later Mrs. Atch­
ison said: *'I haven’t had any kid­
ney trouble since Doan’s Kidney
Pills cured me.’’

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

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.

All I’m waiting for now Is* for
some guy 'driving a car wearing an
Ohio license tag for a breastplate to
come along and start something
about Michigan’s poor roads. That
will be the opening gun for a war
which will make the late unpleasant­
ness look Uke a penny’s worth of
chewing gum after the blond type­
writer gets through with IL Michi­
gan may have some highways which
have not been properly sandpapered
down to get all the wrinkles out, but
they are piano-finished compared to
some of the furrows of baked clay
that pass for highways in some por­
tions of the Buckeye state. Ohio
has some good roads, but those which
are not good are so (deleted by cen­
sor) bad that the Witte flats are
like a billiard table in comparison.

If you are travelling along some
of the popular tourist routes In New
York It is just as well ordinarily to
ask the price before you order your
eats. Just because, like. the little
innocent we are. we got stung any­
way once. Perhaps more, but once
in particular.. 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. That chicken was no chicken,
it was no larger than a chicken
should be, but it was much tougher
than a chicken should be, feathered or
not, and when it was served most of
the original feathers still clung to it.
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.

Samuel J. Tilden’s "Barrel."
Samuel J. Tilden was the first pres­
idential candidate who used an im­
moderate amount of money. He was
the wealthiest nominee that either
party ever had, “Girard” writes In the
Philadelphia Press.
During his campaign “Sammy’s bar­
rel” was a big issue. It was then that
"barrel” came to have a sinister mean­
ing and referred of eourae to a barrel
of cash for political purposes.
It seems probable that Tilden spent
more of Ms own money to be elected
president than was spent out of the
pockets of all the presidents since bls
time.
Washington was our richest presi­
dent, but he was hardly a millionaire.

song. He introduced his lecture by
a touching tribute to Mr. and Mrs.
C. M. 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.

Nuts Not Property Appreciated.
The reason why nut trees are not
being planted more extensively In
this country is similar to the reason
why the automobile was not in use a
comparatively few years ago. People
had not thought much about IL The
time is coming when nut trees win
bear as important a relation to our
food supply as the automobile does
to transportation.

that epoch to the Reformation, and

Nazarene Church Notes.
We seem to be in the midst of
days of big things, big men, big days,
and big movements. Well every

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

ances of other days, would it not be.

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.

"Pig* is Pigs."

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.

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

little known, but yet possessing all

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.

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

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

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&lt;

Your vote and influence at the

ly appreciated.

“Not unless you promise to be your­

“I promise," he readily responded.

at the hall doorway and announced
austerely: “Here's Missus Kirkland

FARMERS!
Senator Harvey is the only candidate tor congress in this district
who is actually in the farming business. The only one combining farm­
ing and legislative experience. Put present dog law through the senate
and other laws tn interest of agriculture. Belongs to Farm Bureau and
other farm organizations and believes in keening them out of politics.
WORKINGMEN!
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&lt;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.
MERCHANTS. BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL MEN!
Senator Harvey is a graduate of Law Department, Michigan Univer­
sity, and Is president of Constantine Business Men’s association at pres­
ent time. Is experienced In business affairs.
EVERYBODY!
Mark Harvey has no big promises to make. He Is not an agitator.
Neither Is he the paid attorney of the railroads. His platform is simply
the Republican platform and he has no Improvements or enlargements
of his platform to suggest. If elected he will be found on what he be­
lieves to be the clean side ot every public question. 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. Farm­
ers, manufacturers, merchants, bankers and business and professional
men of the highest type.

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.

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

More than 37,000 graduate nurses
have been enrolled tn the American
Red Cross to date end its department
of nursing Is dally Increasing this en­
rollment
The department of nursing lisa been
authorised to maintain an adequate
reserve of nurses for the army and
navy. 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."

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.

CAKBOSOTA — GrUf-O*

One of the leading bachellor mer­
chants of Nashville has added a new
department to his store which is
bound to be greatly appreciated by
die young mothers of the community.
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&lt;?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.

Replenishing Soil Fertility
Assures Better Crops

Our Customers Are Our Partners

Nashville Co-Operative Elevator Assn.

Every year the soil loses fertility.

To make up for this loss agricultural experts re­
commend the thorough spreading of fresh barn yard
manure.
Using a new Black Hawk spreader enables you to
give the soil full value from this precious fertilizer. The
wjde spread device scatters the manure evenly over a
wide area. The easily operated feed arrangement en­
ables you to vary the amount from a light top dressing
for wheat to a heavy spread for a run down land.
Be sure to drop in and see us next time you are in
town.

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.
Try LILY WHITE—Results will convince you. Satisfaction
is guaranteed. Ask for LILY WHITE at your dealer’s.

Bemm's chin. Stunned by the blow,'
Bemm swayed backward and would
have fallen heavily had not Clinton
eased him to the fl&lt;w»r.
Ellen uttered a stifled shriek. Clin-1
ton straightened up from beside the
white-faced Inert interferer and
looked apologetically-at the girl and
her equally startled mother.
“Pray pardon me!" he said. "Do
not be alarmed. 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. However, I shall
now relieve you of my ungentlemanly ■
presence."
“Oh. Will 1 No, no! Do not leave ।

Before he could reach the hall door- ■

the way.
“You dear old silly," she bantered. I
“That's all the good It did you, knock­

and I’ve hidden the key and your hat"
“Miss Lowric," he sternly replied,
"I will not permit even you to—"
“Growly bear! Growly bear!” she
mocked.
He stepped toward her with the erident purpose of pushing past Into the ;
hall. She darted to meet him. and.
before he could evade her, flung her
arms about his neck. He grasped her ■'
wrists, but her fingers were locked ,
fast. To flave freed himself be must |
have resorted to outright violence.

“I—I—Miss Lowrle," be stammered.
“really this la—is most—"
“Promise I" she demanded, clinging
tighter.
He looked down into her upturned
face. The slarllke brown eyes were
soft with tender affection and bright
with merry triumph. To gase into
them and remain stern was an Impos­ !
sibility.

The embarrassment that bad suc­

“Oh, you will? And Charlie’s not

“That’s a dear old brotherkins 1“ ap­
proved Amy la the same breath, and
she rose on tiptoe with her smiling
lips upturned for his brotherly salute.
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

Miss Amy has only to say the word,

The girl faced the others, leaning
affectionately on Clinton’s shoulder.
“Ellen dear, call Tillie to fetch a

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

"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. If Charlie takes it that way,
Will," remarked" Mrs. Kirkland.
“Indeed, yes," added EHen, regard­
ing Amy’s sisterly cuddling with a
wistful look. “But you'll never do
such a shocking thing again, will you?"
“That depends," answered Clinton,
a trifle dryly.
CHAPTER IV.

The muffled ring of the doorbell
stirred Amy to agile activity. She
bent down to thrust her fingertips in­
to the side of one tiny slipper.
"Must be doctor!" she exclaimed.
“Where In the world did that— Oh,

"Magic I" he declared. “You’ll not

Her face clouded. “Oh. Will, for
you to make such a compliment as

I’m only your sister."
"Miss Lowrle," he replied, between
amusement and exasperation, “if It

“But doctor—he'll soon cure you I"
she cried In joyful relief, and she
darted Into the hall, calling, “Walt.

The lines of Clinton’s firm mouth
tightened. He confronted boctor

the hall with one big plump hand on
Amy’s shoulder. The physician waved
his other hand around the room snd

The other day, in one of hla il­

he declared that if anyone could
show him that any other candidate
for governor, by reason of his exper­
ience and achievements, was quali­
fied to give Michigan the same sort
of an administration that he, Mott,
proposed to give, he would withdraw
and give that candidate his support.
IL Mr. Mott had a little more ex­
perience in politics, he never would
have been caught making such a
statement of pure bunk.
Aa it is.
his little bluff was imedlately called.
Cassius L. Glasgow of Nashville call­
ed It.
And Mr. Glasgow’s friends
called it, too.
The latter wired the
Flint man, asking him to show
wherein his platform differed from
that of Mr. Glasgow as published in
The Grand Rapids News of July 22.
"If Mr. Mott is sincere in his offer,"
wired the Nashville man’s friends,
"we think that Mr. Glasgow's state­
ment covers everything that Mr. Mott
advocates, and we are willing to
recommend an exchange of views.’’
Of course, Mr. Mott had to de­
cline.
He took refuge in the old
and tried statement that he had been
misquoted.

should be nominated, because that county has been persistently Ignored,
and 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.

voters of the Third Congressional District, a marf splendidly qualified

should he be elected to Congress.

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

Bread and rolls baked from LILY WHITE are of splendid

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. I'm here, Mr. Will," came
back the voice of old Tillie. “My I but

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” •

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.
If we read the advertisements we soon real
ize that they can work to our advantage just
as much as to the merchant with something
to sell.

“Maybe so much beauty on an empty
stomach has upset you.”
“It is not the lack of breakfast,”
he asserted.
“Well, then— Ohl there’s Ellen

He colored and looked toward Ellen,
who was eagerly approaching. As he
caught her gay his flush deepened,

In a futile attempt to avoid her tender

Bemm. ns fastidiously dressed as 1
ever, was sitting within tbe Inclosure. '
At sight of Clinton he sprang to open
the gate, with a cordial: “Ah, here you
are! Come right In. You, too. Doc- I
tor Kirkland.”
“Must go back to my office,” replied
the physician. “Can stop only to In­
dorse Mr. Clinton’s draft if that Is nec-'j
essary."
“Not nt all." said Bemm. *Tve ex- ।
plained Mr. Clinton’s odd resemblance j
to Mr. Lowrie. The draft will be i
cashed all right.”
Clinton drew out his draft and in- i
dorsed it under the sharp gaze of the I
cashier without the slightest trace of
hesitancy.
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

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. You’re not the

“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. The Instructor
who had greeted Clinton as “Mr. Low­
rie," was even quicker than had bee®
Bemm to note his splendid muscular
development
Bemm paused a* moment after Clin­
ton took position. The latter
closer to him. Bemm dropped hit
hands.
“Walt I" he said sharply. “That
mark on your arm.”
Clinton twisted the arm around.
“What do you mean? I see no mark.*
“Nor do L That’s Just It," rejoined

Bemm. “It’s not «there now. Yog
know. Red—the brownish blotch­
birthmark.”
"Sure," agreed the instructor, stag­
ing curjously. “Have you been to &lt;
beauty doc, Mr. Lowrie?”
Clinton looked at -the two with *
quizzical smile. “You say I used to
have a birthmark on my arm?”
“Size of a dollar, on the outsld^
three Inches below the elbow," con­
cisely stated Bemm.
.
“And now it Is not there,” remarked
Clinton. 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&amp;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. Clinto*
was first ready, and Bemm waved the
attendant to take his towels in to tbe
shower bath.
“Go ahead, old man," he said to Clin­
ton. T’U be along In half a minute.**

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&gt;
'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 &lt;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. Banyon has gone from one
success to another, but always toilingly, honestly, fearlessly.
If you like that sort of a record,
his candidacy is submitted to-you.
and he will feel honored by your sup­
port.

coffee Doc walks around the tree and

on about his business just as though

A Personal Word
To the Voters of Barry County
On Primary Day, Aug. 31, Barry county will have the only
chance that may come to her in many years to bring home the Re­
publican nomination for Congress.
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.

was the first dressed.

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 |

“I regret that I—am not quite ready

“Walt? The telegram may not come

“Well—I am not quite—"

“Very well; you may count on me.

Less than ten minutes later a taxi- ;

“Not yet ... We expect it any

“Should have come hours ago," add­

"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

"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

"O-o-oh, papa I" sighed Ellen. “Bad

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

"AU due to my partner," replied
Bemm. “She |« the beet of luck."
Amy jumped up to curtsey.

The Jury that was impanelled to

WANTS MAN IN MOON PINCHED.

Husband Saye Wife Left Him to Flee
With Accused. ,

"I want a warrant for the man in
the moon!"
A pugnacious Individual thrust a
bulldog jaw otfer the counter in the
prosecutor's office Friday and made
this demand of 0. Z. Ide, assistant
prosecutor.
Ide regarded the visitor suspi­
ciously.
"What did the man In the moon
do?" he asked, edging toward a
heavy inkwell.
"He stole my wife—and I want a
warrant right away." The visitor's
manner became more hostile. Ide
secured a good grip on the inkwell.
"Rather unusual, to be sure," com­
mented the assistant prosecutor,
now thoroughly convinced that he
had an insane man to deal with. The
visitor noted his action and burst in­
to a hearty laugh.
"I see you think I’m crazy," he
said, "but I assure you I am not. My
name is Joseph L. LaRue. I have
been living in an apartment at 409
Lawndale avenue. I work nights.
This morning I came home and found
my wife gone. But she left this
note."
The note read:
"I can’t stand It any longer, stay­
ing at home nights while you work.
You don't love me or you would get
day work, so we could go out nights.
I am running away with the man in
the moon. Don't try to follow me."
LaRue was advised by the assist­
ant prosecutor that no legal action
could be taken unless he could find
his wife living with the man in the
moon, in which event a statutory
charge could be preferred.—De­

BURGESS REUNION.
The second annual Burgess family
reunion was held August 25th at the
farm home of Mr. and Mrs. Gus
Morgenthaler, south ot the village.
There were only about forty-five In
attendance, many of the relatives be­
ing unable to come, but the day was
ideal and those present enjoyed a
fine time. After a bountiful din­
ner a number of group and family
pictures were taken by Mr. Morgeut haler.
The business session was opened
by repeating the Lord's prayer in
concert. The report of the last

Will
Gibson, president; George Brinkert.
vice president; Elmer Wiles, sec. and
treas.; Mrs. L. C. Davis. Mrs. E.

recitation, followed by another by
Miss Anna Wiles. It was voted to

officers.
Mr. and Mrs. Morgenthaler re­
ceived hearty thanks for their hospi­
tality and the pleasant way in which
they have entertained the reunion
the past two years.

WORDS FROM HOME.
Statements That May Be Investigat­
ed. Testimony of Nashville
Citizens.

When a Nashville citizen comes to
the front, telling his friends and
neighbors of his experience, you can
rely*on his sincerity. The state­
ments of people residing In far away
places do not command your confi­
dence. Home endorsement Is thd
kind that backs Doan's Kidney Pills.
Such testimony Is convincing. In­
vestigation proves it true. Below
is a statement of a Nashville resi­
dent. No stronger proof of merit
can be had.
Jullua F. Bement, jeweler and op­
tician, Main street., says: "Some
time ago I had kidney trouble and
backache. I used three or four
boxes of Doan’s Kidney Pills. They
made my kidneys act regularly and I
soon felt all right again. 1 am glad
to recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills.’’

For Perfect Baking Results Use

LILY WHITE
“The Flour the Best Cooks Use

HIS flour has stood the test of time. Three generations of women
have won reputations as expert home bakers through its use. The
high standard of quality has been maintained. It is just as good
as flour made from wheat can be produced in perfectly equipped
mills, with America’s foremost milling experts on the job.

Choicest Wheat Grown in America Used
In producing LILY WHITE the choicest wheat grown in this country
is used—a soft winter Wheat of perfect balance. It has just the right
strength, neither too hard nor too soft Its color, texture and flavor
are beyond comparison. Only the choicest goodies of every wheat
kernel are milled into LILY WHITE. It is all quality.

How We Handle the Grain
Look for the
ROWENA
trade-mark
on the sack

Every kernel of wheat that goes into LILY WHITE is treated in a way
to bring out its best qualifies. First' of all it is cleaned four times,
scoured three times and then thoroughly washed before going on the
rolls for the first break. Few mills take so much pains. This separates
numerous by-products from the grain. Only the choicest hearts of
the kernel go into LILY WHITE flour. The “six-break system” of
milling which we employ is the top-most process known to the
milling art. Our machines and our silk bolting cloths are the best
known to this industry. From the raw material to the sack no human
hand touches LILY WHITE. The packing is done automatically.
With infinite pains and care the raw materials are converted into a
flour of unsurpassed uniformity of granulation, of unmatched color, of
texture and volume that are a joy to those who are judges of quality

are splendid and appetizing. Biscuits are light, tender and flaky. Pie­

ENDORSED AT HOME.
Such Proof as This Should Convince
Any Nashville Citixen.

The public endorsement of a local
citizen is the best proof that can be
produced. None better, none strong­
er can be bad. 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 for 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

lished about Doan’s Kidney Pills.

We hear much these daj*s
about “TEAM-WORK.”
Mostly it is used in connec­
tion with athletic affairs. We
are told of wonderful victories
when every member of a
team PULLS TOGETHER—
whfen someone doesn't go off
trying to make a star play/at the expense of the others.
Trouble is that we limit the word to our recreation­
sport—athletics. We should follow through; think,
use, live team-work in everything we do.
If team-work is a winner in sports, then team-work
is good in family affairs—and we all know how the
household thrives wherein every member has a shoulder
to the wheel.
If team-work is good in the family then it is good in
our work—the commercial organization or unit where
we earn our daily bread.
If team-work is cood in our work—then team-work
is good for our neighborhood affairs—our community—
our town.

THE LAW REGARDING CIDER.
(From The Mason News.)
The News has had several Inquir­
ies regarding the law governing the
making of cider. We fire herewith
printing a short summary ot that
law -written by John F. Kramer, Pro­
hibition Commissioner.
Persons
contemplating the manufacture of
cider should make themselves fa­
miliar with the provisions of this
law.
Copies may be obtained at
the Secretary of State's office at
Lansing.
Mr. Kramer’s statement
follows:
"Section 36, Article V, of the Pro­
hibition Regulation provides that
elder containing less than one-half
of cne per cent of alcohol by vol­
ume intended,for sale must be put
up and marketed In sterile closed
containers or treated with preserv­
atives In order to keep the alcoholic
content within the proportion al­
lowed by law.
If cider la found on
the market containing alcohol in ex­
cess of the above amount the manu­
facturers thereof will be presumed
to have manufactured and sold an
intoxicating liquor. Inasmuch as he
is not responsible for keeping the al­
coholic content below one-half of

And right there, friends. Is where we can make the greatest
showing—when we ALL practice team-work in the development
and growth of OUR town and county.
When the merchants of this town spend money for advertising
apace to send you a message of economy—savings—bargains—
that message should be read. They’ve invested thousands of
dollars In goods to supply you—and without one guarantee that
you will buy.
To earn your money here, then take It to the big city store—
or send it to th mail order house—neither of which contributes
one cent io the upbuilding of this community—Is not team-work.
Read tho advertisements In this paper today, then patronize
our home merchants.

To minister to us here."

A PUZZLING QUESTION,
met the minister on the street,
We both stopped on the walk;
bowed to him; he smiled at me,
Then we began to talk.
Beg pardon, sir, but tell me why
When at your church you speak;
You look me squarely In the eye
And see no other seat.
Of course I believe the words you
speak.
And sometimes they seem tough,
But I’ll tell you here upon the street
You don’t say half enough.
Why don’t you wander from your
text
When you note that we’re In tears,
And tell us why girls on the street
—The pretty little dears—
Comb their hair in such a way
They cover up their ears?
And then he laughed, a happy laugh
And took me by the hand;
Dear sir, he said, **I give it up—
It’s beyond the power of man."
—V. D. Andrews.

What Would a Wagon
Be Without Wheels?
ITS admittedly a foolish question. A
* wagon wouldn’t be a wagon without
wheels. It would be a sleigh or just a box. The
wheels make the wagon go.' They are, therefore,
the most important part of a wagon. And they
stand the roughest usage of any part of the
■wagon. They carry a double load — a load on the
hub and a load between the rim of the wheel and
the ground. To stand this strain they ..have to be
stronger than any other part of the wagon. And
the hub must be the strongest part of the wheel —
it is the foundation of the wheel

To hear some tire dealers
talk you might think that
nobody knew anything about
tires except the fellow from
Broadway.
That’s not the basis we
go on.
We give every man credit
for knowing what he is
spending hie money on,
whether he drives up here
in his small car from ten
miles out in the country or
is passing through from the
capital in his limousine.

That’s one thing we Eke
about U. S. Tires.

They make no distinction
between the small car
owner and the owner of the
biggest car in the country.

It's all the same to them.
So long as a man owns an
automobile — large or small
—he’s entitled to the very
best tire they can give him.

Quality has always been
the outstanding feature of
U. S. Tires. There’s no
limit on the U. S. guarantee.
All U. S. Tires are guaranteed
for the life of the tire.
We have given a lot of
thought to this tire proposi­
tion. There is some advan­
tage in being the represent­
atives of the oldest and largest
rubber concern in the world.
Drop in the next time
you’re down this way and
let us tell you some interest­

What Do You Know
About Flour?
Do you know what it means to bake with flour that
has a perfect uniformity of granulation—that bakes
evenly?
.
Have you ever noticed the texture of the flour you
use? And its color? Maybe you have not gone into
these things. Then try a sack of

Lily White
The Flour the Best Cooks Use

Look for the
ROWENA
trade-mark
on the sack

and you will see what we mean. You may not be familiar
enough with the manufacture of flour to see these things—
but if you are a skilled home baker they will be apparent
to you. As the flour is, so will be the bread, the rolls, the
biscuits and the pastry.
LILY WHITE is a flour containing the choicest selection of
soft and hard wheat grown in America. The soft wheat
improves the flavor and color. It insures the baking of *
good looking loaf of bread. The flour is correctly balanced
to make as good bread as it does biscuits and pastry. There
is just enoagh hard wheat in LILY WHITE to make it the
ideal all-around flour.
■
After being cleaned four times it is scoured three times, then
actually washed, so that every bit of diyt is removed from
the kernels of wheat
“The proof of the pudding is in the eating?" Try LILY

bad good enough luck, so that we
were both satisfied. Didn’t get our

got 'enough, which Is plenty. But
here’s the strangest part of the
whole business. None 'of the big

of such a thing before? Neither did
we. We lost several, as Is usually
the case, hut those we lost were
small ones, and we landed all the big
ones, and pepple who saw the string
said it was the best lot they had

One of our highly respected
friends, who by the way. Is a devotee
at the shrine of pills and plasters,

patch in which he raises fine melons.
(Now he’ll have to prove it to us.)
Well, that melon patch la quite
handy and some of the boys were
getting action on it. which was not
at, all to the liking of the owner, so
he thought if the boys wanted ac­
tion. action they should have. So
he took a hypodermic "shoot gun"
aud he loaded one of the nicest and
ripest melons with croton oil. That
very night that .melon disappeared,
along with several others, and
strange to say that very night one or
two young fellows were darned sick
and mighty busy. And since that
night they have transferred their at­
tention to another melon patch south
of town and a little farther away
from the enlivening action of Doc's

How one hand generally washes
the other is illustrated by a recent
incident. A Nashville organization
wanted some printing done, but
they evidently thought our price was
too high or our work would not be
good enough for them, or something
like that, so they sent their job to
Detroit to be printed. And at the
same time, a somewhat similar or­
ganization in Detroit sent a very
similar job to the Nashville News
office to be printed. And we got the
job out promptly, correctly, and with
entire satisfaction to the Detroit or­
ganization, who complimented us by
saying that it was a very fine job.

stock than the one they had printed
In Detroit the year before, and that
they were entirely pleased with both
the job and the price.

“Why not? You could keep secluded,
and escape all this annoyance over
your Identity. Am I right In surmising
that even the Attentions of the girls
are not altogether agreeable to you?"
“I am not so sure as to that" replied
Clinton. “I cannot say that I have
found it so very unpleasant being with
my—sister.”
The physician’s look became grave.
“I did not wish to speak of a disagree­
able subject. The fact Is the hank offi­
cials are not altogether satisfied with
the arrangement by which you were
placed in my—charge. If I can say
that you are here under treatment
they may he willing to wait a reason­
able time while we are straightening
out this muddle.”
.
“They still threaten me with punish­
ment!" exclaimed Clinton, his eyes
flashing with-quick anger. "I shall go
to the bank and tell them to try It!"
“You will do nothing of the kind,"
genially contradicted the physicinn.
and he laid u sympathetic hand on the
young man's shoulder. “Consider your

“Even if you should prove to be
what you claim, do you imagine we
would cease to think of you as a

Clinton grasped the other’s chubby
hand. "It Is most kind of you to say
It, doctor!”
“The simple truth, my boy. I know
you will stay, to oblige me. Pardon
me a. moment. • I wish to Inquire about
a patient.”
He left the room in his usually brisk
manner. Clinton selected a magazine
from a pile on the neat little writing
table and sat 'down In an easy chair.
Noiselessly an attendant reached in
and closed the door behind him with­
out attracting his attention.
He read an article, tossed the maga­
zine aside, nnd looked around. Dr.
Kirkland had not returned.
He
yawned, rose, sauntered .across the
room, and opened the door. In a mo­
ment he found himself confronted by
an attendant, who planted himself in.
the doorway, hand to cap and a smile
on his good-humored, resolute face.
"You called, sir?"
“No." said Clinton.' “I am goln;f

The man did not move out of the

"Beg pardon, sir. Your sister—Mlu
Lowrie—very good, sir. The matter
•ball be attended to at once."
Clinton faced about r.nd returned to
Ids chair. The man quietly closed the
door.
Several minutes passed. Clinton had
frowned when he gianced about and
noted the closed door. He was now
pacing uneasily to and fro across the
room.
- ' ' ’ '
As he made the torn near the door
it swung open. He stopped abort The
athletic attendant glanced in and
promptly drew back. Amy darted past
him Into the room and clasped Clin­
ton’s band.
“Dear brother, what Is ItF she asked.
“We were waiting. Mrs. Kirkland Is
with r friend. Why didn't you come
down? Why did you send for usF
Over her shoulder he shot an angry
glance at the attendant “I sent only
for you," be replied.
“Amy!" murmured Ellen, stopping
short Just within the door. “That look
in his eyes! Be—be careful, dear, else
he may again—"
She faltered at sight of his frown.
He replied ironically: “Yes, be care­
ful. The maniac has been trapped. He
is in a cage; therefore be must be
dangerous."
“Willi" she protested.
He ignored her, to gaze down into
Amy’s distressed face. “I Asked the
privilege of speaking with you—alone."
He started across the room with
Amy. Ellen hesitated, glanced about
at the alert attendant, and slowly fol­
lowed Clinton met her glance of timid
appeal with cold' antagonism.
“If you will panion me. Miss Kirk­
land," he remarked, “this is getting to
be rather'too much of a farce. Every­
thing that I say or do is distorted by
your deluded fancy into all sorts of
strange meanings. Is k not enough
that your father has very adroitly
trapped me—”
“Hush, dear," reproved Amy. “Can’t
yon see how you are hurting her?"
“I wish I could be brutal." he irri­
tably rejoined. “It nrfght force her to
realize that I cannot V^her fiance."
“Nothing can do that, dearest," mur­
mured Ellen.
"Besides, there’s the telegram." add­
ed Amy.
“What telegramT he queried.
* “Mamma told us.” replied Ellen. “It
came to papa when we were all at
luncheon."
“And It proved that you are you!"
exclaimed Amy. “You needn't scowl,
old bearkins, because it does. It tells
how you escaped to Chicago, and there
the superintendent lost all trace of
you. That was when this change of
personality came on you. So when
you found yourself—not your real, but
your new self—with all the bonds, you
thought they were yours, and put them
in a bank and started for California.
Isn’t that plain T
“Very. Only, as It happens, I opened
my Chicago bank account several
months ago."
Ellen looked at Amy and nodded.
“He forgets what papa says about
retrogressive time memory in some
cases of dissociation."
Clinton flushed with exasperation.
"Miss Kirkland, permit me to express
my conviction that your father has
made an unmitigated—owl of himself."
“No. no, please, dear!" begged Amy.
He drew away the hand with which
she sought to cover bls mouth, and
continued: "This farce has gone quite
far enough. It has become a bore."
EHen straightened with the hauteur
ol an offended queen. “You say that?
First you insult my father, and now—"
“Walt, dear, waitl" Amy sought to
Intervene. “It can’t be he means—"
“Can’t beF demanded Ellen, all her
love and gentleness overwhelmed in
the bitter upwelling of her outraged
pride. “Look at him, scowling at me!"
“I beg your pardon. Miss Kirkland,"

“*Mlss Kirkland’!’’ she exclaimed.
“That is quite sufficient To think that
after I—" She blushed scarlet with
mingled shame and anger. “Rest as­
sured, Mr. Lowrie-Cllnton, I shall no
longer bore you with the farce of my
attentions."
“Ellen!" breathlessly remonstrated
Amy. “Surely you cannot intend—"
“Are You Deaf? I Am Going Down.”
“I do!" cried the girl, stripping the

I am going down. Step aside."
“Beg pardon, sir," respectfully re­
plied tbe attendant. “Dr. Kirkland
wished me to tell you that he preferred
you should keep in your room.”
Clinton measured the man with a
swift glance. There could be no mis­
taking the athletic ease of the fellow’s
poiae. Yet he stood with hands down.
An uppercut to the chin, followed by a
straight drive, might put him out of
tbe way. Clinton tensed for tbe attack
—and did not make IL Three other
male attendants bad appeared In tbe
corridor behind their fellow employee.

mere knowledge of this fact was quite

The current issue of Detroit Mo­
tor News baa an article by Bud*
Stephens under the caption of "What
Journaliris Think of Women Driv­
ers,'’ in which she ask* several De­
troit writers to-express themselves on
the topic. The resulting story Is
well worth reading, and especially
Buda’s comments on the replies of
the journalist*. But talking about
women drivers, while they may be
eccentric and perhaps not always
strictly safe and sane, why pick on
the women when there are so many
men who won’t classify in the same
thoroughfare with them? On city
streets and country roads one meet*
them every day who don’t show as
much plain common sense about
driving a car as Nat Goodwin did
about picking out wives. Fellows
who.come up behind you and ask you
to lay over on a seven foot road; or
who bog the middle of a twelve foot
road; or who don’t try to turn out
of a sand rut until they are within
a rod of you. then getting out with
the front wheels while the rear
wheels stick to the ruts; fellows who
hog the inside of a turn at a bad
corner when they should be on the
outside; others who take desperate
chances rather than wait ten seconds
for a train to pass; these and hun­
dreds of others, until the wonder is
that we don’t have ten accidents
where we now have one. I^t up on
the girls and tell the plain truth to
a tew thousand fool men drivers who
have no business to even ride in the
tonneau.

There, we have that off our clfest.
Not to speak of the city drivers
who beat it through the business
streets of the small towns like hell
beating tanbark and when called
down about it say ’"Why, 1 wasn’t
driving fast, was 1?"
They all like a inretch of brick
pavement after a few miles of ordi­
nary dirt road, don’t they?
Stop! lxx&gt;k! Listen! It’s a mighty good sign to pay at­
tention to. whether you are driving
an automobile or a wheelbarrow.

But some folks don’t believe in
signs.
Me, I’m superstitious, especially
about railroad crossings.

Made It Y’ery Pl*ln
An amusilg thing happened in con­
nection with the Presidential straw
vote that is now being conducted by
Messrs. Carveth &amp; Stebbins, the loc­
al .Rexall store. Our reporter hap­
pened to overhear the conversation
between a party who came In to vote
and Mr. Stebbins, which ran about
as follows;
"Ta this where they vote on Presi­
dent?”
"Yes sir. we are conducting a
straw vote.”
"Is it a secret vote??’
"Yes sir, strictly so."
"Wouldn’t thern be any way for
any one to find out how a fellow had
voted, if be put in a vote here?"
"Absolutely no chance for any
person to find out bow any other per­
son votes. That’s the way we con­
duct it,” answered Mr. Stebbins.
Evidently satisfied that it was all
in good faith, he concluded, "Well
then, it it's secret, I believe I’ll
vote.”
The party was given a piece of
paper and started to write his bal­
lot. He had not proceeded far be­
fore be stopped, hesitated in apparent
uncertainty for a little time, and then
walked to the place where Mr. Steb­
bins was at work and asked:
"Do you spell Coolidge with one
1 or two?”
So to those who heard that ques­
tion it is not a matter of grave
doubt as to what ticket that man of
vote. Hastings Banner.

AUTOMOBILES!
Have You Seen the SENECA?
If you are thinking of getting an auto you will do
well to look over the SENECA. She is a peach,
and nobody’s car is composed of any better parts
than you get in this light car. It is really just
the thing—all the style and comfort of a large,
massive car without the high expense that goes
with them.

We think more of a man who does
something besides hoot.
Don't you?

Seems to me there’s enough things
topsy turvy in this old vale of tears,
as it is. without people turning more
of them that way. Intentionally, on
purpose. Don't you think so? We
see men who think they are all
dressed up. and wearing thets hats
on wrong side to. with the bow on the
right side or in front. What makes
’em do it? And why does a fellow
like C. L. Glasgow wear the license
tag on the rear of his car bottom
side up? Is he afraid the speed cop
will get his number? Or doesn’t he
know which side up his car is. or
what? Guess we’ll ask him.
Not that it's any of our durn busi­
ness, only we just wanted to know.

TELEGRAPH COMPANIES TO PAY'
FOR MISTAKES.
"There is no reason why the tele­
graph companies should longer be
permitted to avoid responsibility or
to limit tbelr liability to a nominal
amount," says Examiner Patterson
of the Interstate Commerce Cammis­
sion. .
After listening to testimony by
the Michigan State Farm Bureau,
co-operative shippers and business
men of the country. Patterson has
recommended that telegraph com­
panies should be liable for damages
to the extent of 8500 for losses oc­
casioned the sender* through mis­
takes on unrepeated valued mes­
sages and on repeated valued mes­
sages the liability should not exceed
&gt;5.000.
. Serious losses to shipper* have oc­
curred through mistakes in price
quotations in telegraph messages for
many years but the senders of these
messages had only nominal recourse.
The attempt to make the telegraph
companies responsible in this matter
was begun last summer.

on bls knees. Amy did not observe
the embarrassed movement. She was
peering ahead Into the darkness be­
yond the intersection. She ran the
next block, swerved around the cor­
ner. and turned on the coupe lights.
“You’re a Little trump!” he ex­
claimed.
“That’s nice of you. you poor dear

Though bubbling with repressed
merriment, the girl had paid close at­
tention to the driving of the coupe.
She kept to the smoothest of the more
secluded streets, and slackened speed
while passing through the radius ot
light at the intersections, that the
coupe might not attract the unwel­
come observation of a chance police­
man. But between Intersections she
threw on tbs high gear.

Mr. Fox thought for a second and
then he said: "I think we may he able

that he should keep his eyes open In A

he wished to help the farmer save his

“I will see Mistress Puss and tell
her that Mr. Dog said he did not see
why the farmer brought ber here, as
she could not do a thing but stay in
the house and sleep when she really
should be out catching the birds that
spoil the grass.
"I will tell ber, too, that he said
she was a lazy, good-for-nothing crea­

Madam Mouse was not a very wise

Fox. knew what was best, and-she was
not afraid of Mr. Dog, so she left her
children by the fence and ran over to

“But, my dear madame," said the

•‘Now Why the Devil Couldn't they?"
A bit embarrassing for one of our
good citizens who acted as a substi­
tute teacher of a class of boys at the
Methodist Sabbath school last Sun­
day when he was in the midst of an
enthusiastic discussion of -the day's
lesson and all of a sudden the whole
class began to snicker. He stopped
his discourse in amazement and
then the realization came to him that
he had been using a bit of his every­
day language, forgetting just where
he was. The boys forgave film, how­
ever, whether the Lord did or not.
and we guess under the circumstanc­
es it will probably be overlooked-.
They Wouldn’t Fit No Place.
Queer mistakes a man will some­
times make when he is in love. Or
deeply interested in something else.
That’s the only possible excuse for
one of our leading merchants, who
sold a suit of union undies to a Ma­
ple Grove citizen Saturday night, for
the M. G. C.’s grown son to wear
Sunday. When the son tried to put
the suit on in the morning, be could­
n’t figure it out, at all. but his moth­
er saw at once Just where the trou­
ble was and they brought the suit

The goal of scientific flour milling is to produce an

is a flour containing the choicest selection of soft and hard
wheat grown in America. Soft wheat improves the flour
and color. It insures the baking of a good looking loaf of
bread. The flour is correctly balanced to make as good
bread as it does biscuits and pastry.
There is just enough hard wheat in LILY WHITE £o make it
the ideal all-around flour.
After being cleaned four times it is scoured three times, then
actually washed, so that every bit of dirt is removed from
the kernels of wheat
When the wheat has gone through our “six-break system”
it comes out uniformly granulated, perfect in color and fine
in texture. We know, and countless thousands of users
know, that everything baked from LILY WHITE is tender,
white and deliciously flavored—and fully nourishes.
Prove LILY WHITE quality by trying a sack. You can. use
it for all purposes. It is guaranteed to give perfect satis­
faction. At your dealer's.

Well, then, there are Warp Olin,
Red White and George Graham,
mighty hunters. Followers of tho
immortal Teddy are they. Also they
are squirrel hunters, since squirrel
whiskey has gone on its predestined
way. So Tuesday morning they
went out squirrel hunting, taking
along a coon dog to see that the
squirrels didn't bite them. Along
after a bit that coon dog commenced
barking at a hole in a hollow tree.
Of course, that meant a coon in the
tree. They rammed a switch up in­
to the hollow and elicited a whistling
growl. “Yep!” yelled Red, "that’s
a coon, sure! They always whistle
like that." But they couldn’t whit­
tle the coon out with their jack
knives, so they drilled a mile or so
to a farm house and borrowed an ax
and a saw and they went into exten­
sive lumbering operations. After
strenuous work for all three, they
finally managed to enlarge the hole
sufficiently sb they could get at his
coonship, when to their consterna­
tion out popped a 50-pound wood­
chuck, so full of fight that tbe three
of them had all they.could do to keep
him from eating up their dog. They
dragged in about noon, dog tired,
with one squirrel for one hunter,
while the other two divided the wood­
chuck, fifty-fifty. That ought to
make 'em a 100 per cent dinner, too.

There used to be a saying among
young people that “The longest way
around is the sweetest way home,”
but Virgil Laurent gives very em­
phatic evidence that it isn't true
nowadays, at least in every case.
Virgil "made up” to a mighty sweet
little girl the other day, who drives
a very nifty rig, and he suggested
to her that she take him out for a
little ride. She consented and he
climbed into the seat beside her and
they started out. The girl lives about
eight miles in the country and she
drove right home and put out tbe
horse. And Virgil says that is the
longest eight mllee he ever-walked.
Blisters all over his feet. Herman
says Virgil waits on customers all
right, but doesn't get around very
fast on his feet the past few days.

Every man has a little kingdom in his home.
Every father loves his family more than his life.
Every mother deserves protection In her home.
Every child need* the protection of the mother in the home.
Every heart responds to the gospel of home protection.
Every hour devoted to family preservation is well occupied.
Every mind assents to the wisdom of home protection.
Every life is threatened dally by many dangers.
Every dollar put into family protection is well Invested.
Every life insurance policy performs a service to humanity.
Meet me with a smile when I call tomorrow.

8. A. LeJeune. an auto parts tleale? of Grand Rapids, was arrested at
Wall Lake this week on complaint"bf
Will Carpenter. Mr. C. owns a
farm on tbe shores ot Wall lake and
had the farm posted against hunt­
ing. Sunday he heard shooting in
his woods and went to find tbe par­
ties, who were shooting squirrel*.
They bad some words regarding the
matter and Carpenter asked LeJeune
to see his hunting license. LeJeune
produced the license, which Carpen­
ter stuck in his pocket and started
for home, after ordering the trespass­
er off. According to charges in the
complaint, LeJeune put the muzzle
of his Winchester in Carpenter's
stomach and demanded tbe return of
tbe license, to which Carpenter
promptly responded.
Carpenter
hurried home and called up tbe sher­
iff's office.
LeJeune was" located at a Wall
Lake cottage and arranged to report
at Hastings Tuesday morning to an­
swer to the charge placed against
him by* Mr. Carpenter. He plead
guilty to trespass and paid a fine of
$10.00 and costs, but asked for a
hearing on the charge of assault and
gave bonds for his appearance No­
vember 15.

MICHIGAN’S OPPORTUNITY
Our readers are no doubt aware
of the fact that there is a movement
on foot to develop a deep waterway
from the Great Lakes through tbe
St. Lawrence River to the Atlantic
ocean, making all of the ports on
the Great Lakes equivalent to ocean
ports. This undertaking is about
commensurate with the digging of
the Panama Canal, except that the
amount ot money Involved Is possi­
bly only a third of what it cost to
build the canal, or, in other words,
not to exceed $150,004,000. The
state most vitally affected by the im­
provement of this deep waterway
route is Michigan. Such communi­
ties as St. Joseph, Benton Harbor,
Holland, Muskegon, Ludington, Man­
istee, Petoskey, Alpena, Bay City,
Port Huron and Detroit will become
will partlclpateshrdluchrfwlycmtwyp
seaports. Even the Inland towns
will participate in the added prosper­
ity that is brought to the state of
Michigan after this deep waterway
route is developed.
The International Joint Commis­
sion will hold a session in Detroit on
October 22nd and 23rd and in Grand
Rapids on October 2fith for the pur­
pose of hearing anyone who has any­
thing to say for or against such an
improvement- A similar hearing
will be held in the city of Chicago.
Tbe Grand Rapids hearing will be
at 10 a. m., central standard time, in
the Convention Hall of the Pantlind
hotel.

Vern Fultz ot Hastings was ar­
rested Monday charged with the for­
gery of a note for $100 on John
Harding. Fultz was a car sales­
man in the employ of Burdette
Lltchy, and from what the sheriff's
force has found out about him in'the
past three days will have a number
of other things to answer for. Fultz
it is alleged, has been going all the
gaits recently, taking and using cars,
getting credit in other towns on the
statement that he was a salesman
for a Hastings firm, neglecting his,
family, drinking hard cider, and try­
ing to be a regular he devil, which
it is claimed will result in a shortage
of several hundred dollars to his em­
ployer, with fine prospects for a term
in the hoosegow for the festive Mr.
Fultz.
What will happen to Fultz should
be a warning to those who are in­
dulging in drinking hard cider and
driving motor cars while under the
influence of it, for the courts will
surely. land a Babe Ruth swat on
them when they are found guilty.
Fultz was arraigned, bound over
to circuit, plead guilty and will re­
ceive his sentence this week.

Hard Cider Jag Makes Home a Hell.
The sheriff's force was called to
tbe home of bred Cook in Orange­
ville township Tuesday night, where
it is claimed Cook was having an
official opening of the hard cider
season.
Mrs. Cook phoned the sheriff’s of­
fice a hurry call and they were soon
on the ground, but by the time tney
arrived Cook had crawled away out
of sight. But he did not take all
the sights with him. He had driven
his wife and six children, the oldest
13, away from home, had broken up
the dishes, a large part ot the can­
ned fruit was lying in the corner of
the cellar where he had thrown can
after can against the wall, had brok­
en a table and several other articles.
He had the regular brand of hard
cider, cured five days in the sun and
ten days in the cellar, and from the
appearance of things it had the reg­
ular "White Mule" kick.
As Cook could not be found, Mrs.
Cook accompanied tbe officers to
Hastings and swore to a complaint
against him. and he will probably
soon be given a private room in Sher­
iff Burd's rest cure institution.
Before returning to Hastings, the
sheriff's force emptied the cider bar­
rel and several pails and pans ot the
stuff. Several milk pails filled with
the cider were found at. the barn, but
the cows had not been milked be­
cause there was nothing in which .to
put the milk.
Mrs. Cook insists on a straight
jail sentence for her erring spouse
and we imagine Judge Smith will
grant her apparently reasonable 're­
quest.

Early yesterday morning Nashville
people experienced a genuine, si­
mon-pure earthquake—not violent,
but easily discernable, enough so to
wake up many people who were
sleeping soundly.
E. H. Mallory, for many years a
resident of Nashville, died at hig
home Wednesday afternoon of heart
disease, after a long illness.
At about 3.30 Sunday morning
fire was discovered In the engine
room of the planing mill of John
Bell’s Sons on South Main street,
and the alarm sounded. Considering
the hour, the department responded
very quickly, but the flames spread
with Incredible rapidity and• *-•
before
the boys get to work It was a foregone conclusion that saving the mill
was an* utter impossibility. The
main bulling was a two-story
structure, about 30 x 60 ft., and the
one large
main floor was
room, .through which
------- the
— flames
swept like a prairie fire, enveloping
the entire building within five min­
utes after the alarm was first given.
Seeing that saving the mill was a
hopeless task, the boys turned their
attention to the adjoining buildings,
making their fight to stop the Are
right where it was, and succeeded
admirably? to the surprise of most of
the spectators. The loss to J. Bell’s
Sons will aggregate about &gt;7,000,
all of their valuable machinery,
tools, etc., being a total loss. The
engine is ruined, but It is thought
that the boiler Is uninjured. There
was an insurance of &gt;3,000.
The
boys are nothing daunted by their
hard luck, and while they feel keen­
ly the loss of their plant just at this
time, when the mill was fufl of work,
they don’t propose to let the grass
grow under their feet, but will get
to work at once on a new plant, to
be larger and better than the old
one. They expect to go to Chicago
next week to purchase the necessary
machinery.
WHISTLING KIDS.
Have you ever noticed a small boy
go whistling down the street? He
was happy.
Some day, though, he may not be
so happy. He may be president of
the Unfted States instead.
It’s too bad we can’t carry our ex­
uberance of happiness through life
and into the grave, instead of leaving
it at the threshold of manhood, as
most of us do.
The fellow who is always looking
for something for nothing might win
out by trading himself off for a tooth­
pick.

money for their relatives to scrap
over and squander.
Perhaps they find in the hereafter
the happiness they denied themselves
In this life. But we doubt it. Even
if they squeeze into heaven they
won’t remember how to whistle.
Whistling kids who discard their
happiness in their prime will become
morose in old age.
You can change a leopard’s spots
by daubing on a little paint. But
in time the paint will wear off and
the spots will still be there.
So it is with man. He can money­
grub through the years of his prime
and in the winter of life he can fool
the people by assuming a happiness
he does not feel. But under the
surface the canker still works. It
will never heal.
Encourage your boy to whistle. In­
duce him to whistle a stirring tune
every day of his life.
Then he will carry his whistling
to the grave, and the harps of the
angels will be In harmony with his
soul.

Let ’Em Whistle.
When we reach manhood’s estate
we plunge into the business of pil­

our needs require. Even then we
yearn for more.

man for this district, State Senator, Representative to the State Legislature and the County Officers of Barry County.

EVERY VOTER can therefore

At the Primaries last August the Republicans of the County placed in the field a ticket worthy the support of every voter of the County.

All the candi­

dates are Loyal, True Blue Americans, qualified in every way to fill the offices for which they have been nominated. Several of them have served their first
term with credit and honor and they are entitled to your support in recognition of their excellent service.

Those who have not yet served in this capacity

John C. Ketcham

Mrs. Ella G- Eggleston

Candidate for Congress

Candidate for Probate Judge

Mr. Ketcharti won hlu nomination
in the August Primaries by about
3000 plurality over his closest com­
petitor and every voter in Barry
county* should make Nov. 2nd a day

opportunity to elect Mr. Ketcham by
a big majority. Mr. Ketcham suc­
cessfully served Barry county as
school commissioner for S years, has
been Master of the State Grange for
b years and National Lecturer of the

and honor in the Congress of the
United States if elected.

G. Elmer McArthur

Candidate for State Senator
Mr. McArthur Is a lawyer In Eaton
Rapids who has served one term In

and throughoutthe county he en­
joys the confidence and esteem of a
wide
circle
of
acquaintances.
He was the first commander of the
Harold Teeter American Legion Post

inent in the fraternal life of his home

ficials in the state.

John M. Gould

Candidate for Prosecuting
Attorney

David N. Honeywell

Candidate for Clerk

Mark A. Ritchie

Candidate for Register of
Deeds

Mrs. Eggleston's experience in
probate work far surpasses that us­
ually received by candidates for this
office. She has been almost contin­
uously connected with the probate of­
fice of Barry county tor the past 18
years or more, and Is most highly
qualified to dispatch the duties of
this office with care and justice. Mrs.
Eggleston has no opposition.

Walter H. Burd

ly honored by the people of that

ent time on the Board of Supervisors.

Barry county good, honorable, faith­
ful service.

During the past two years Atty.
Gould has filled the office of prose­
cuting attorney with credit. He has
been thorough in investigating all
matters brought to his attention and
prompt In taking action when such
action seemed 'advisable. Because
of this fact he has been able to save
much expense to tho county and is
worthy the continued support of the
voters of the county. Mr. Gould
pledges himself to do his utmost in
keeping down the expenses of the
office, if elected, just as he has suc­
ceeded ic doing during his first term.

Joseph L. Campbell

Candidate for Treasurer

David S. England

Candidate for County Drain
Commissioner

Alfred M. Nevins

Candidate for State Repre­
sentative
It is proper that Barry, an agri­
cultural county, should'be represent­
ed by A. M. Nevins, who is a success­
ful farmer, and who has had a splen­
did opportunity to know the needs
of this county and state. For many
years he was supervisor of Orange­
ville township, and was county treas­
urer for four years. He is a mem­
ber of the Farm Bureau, and favors
the principle of co-operation among
farmers, as is evidenced by the fact
that he is a stockholder in the Del­
ton Co-Operative Creamery, the Del­
ton Co-Operative elevator, and a
stockholder and manager of the Dos­
ter Co-Operative Elevator Co. He will
aim to faithfully represent Barry
county in the legislature.

qualified to handle the large vol­
ume of money which must necessari­
ly pass through thia office, and Mr.
Campbell has fully proven his abili­
ty in this line. Mr. Campbell is
thoroughly conversant with the pro­
posed changes in the system of
county auditing adopted in Michigan,
and will be a valuable man to retain
in the treasurer’s office.

Through the work of Mr. England
in this office many hundreds of
acres of swamp lands have been re­
claimed in Barry county, and in time
will become some of the best land
in the county. Mr. England was
renominated in August. He has
been a mighty efficient officer, and
will surely be elected as he has no
opposition..

Mr. Burd who was appointed to
'succeed
Homer Marshall whose
health failed, has proven his worth,
and ia recognized as one of Michi­
gan's very best and most thorough
sheriffs. It will be a misfortune to
Barry county should Mr. Burd be de­
feated. Everything entrusted to him
has had prompt and careful atten­
tion and every duty connected with
the office of sheriff has been dis­

John Waters

Candidate for Road Commis­
sioner

Walter Heath

' Candidate for Surveyor
Mr. Heath is from Prairieville
township, and is the present county
surveyor. He has performed the
duties of the office most acceptably,
is well qualified for the position, and
is worthy of your support.

Springs, will bring to the office of
register of deeds fine iftoallflcatlons
for that position. He is a Barry
county man, who has lived all his life
time in this county. He has a good
education, is a splendid penman and
one of the most genial, kindly mon
you ever met, whose first aim would
be to fill the office in a way that
would win the approval of all the
people ot the county.

“Joe" Campbell has served one^
term as county treasurer and has
given Barry county mighty good and
efficient service. It Is important
that this office be filled by a man

this office. He has had an excep­
tional experience in building roads,
and is recognized by the State De­
partment at Lansing as one of the
most successful builders ^of good
roads in Michigan. He Mas not on­
ly been actively engaged for years
in building state reward roads but

road needs of Barry county and if
elected at the November election will
serve well and efficiently in the
maintenance and construction of
roads for this county.

General G roesbeck’s privilege to

more Important
cases In behalf
of state interest than has been true of any occupant of
bis office for many years. More than a quarter of a
million of dollars has gone Into the State Treasury as
the result of suits Instituted by Attorney General Groes­
beck in cases where Inheritance taxes were being with­
held. and where monies due to the state on other ac­
counts had remained unpaid.

FOR STATE AND NATION STATEMENTS BY GROESBECK
The Republican party propose*
to devote it* entire efforts to
safeguarding and promoting the
welfare of the American people,
and to maintaining the principles
of self-government that have
given to our country its favored
and unique position.
Let us seek to avoid industrial
chaos and to bring to a close the
present national era of enormous
war-time expenditures.
Vote for a purpose far greater
than the success of the party, for
the ultimate goal that no harm
shall come to the Republic.

“Thi* is a reconstruction per­
iod and there are big problems
confronting our state."
“We ought to revise our methods
of state administration and make
them more efficient and better
adapted to conditions as they
now exist.”
“There should be no invisible
government functioning for its
own interests in Michigan.”
“And it is most important that
there shall be a reduction of state
expenditures and a period of re­
lief to our people from the bur­
den of excessive state taxation.”

For Lieut. Governor
The Republican
candidate for
Lieutenant Qov

prospective promotion to presiding officer of the brat*
Senate is therefore logical and deserved. Thames Read

HON. JOHN BARTON PAYNE
Secretary of the Interior,
says—
“One of the fundamentally sound
habits that should be acquired by
every citizen is that of regular and

systematic saving.
“It is the foundation of the economic

well-being of the nation.

Whatever

our habits may be, we should give
that of thrift a prominent place in
our scheme of character building.”

I*OMHibility of Six Mlles of Truuk
Highway Being Constructed
Next Year.

The board of supervisors, at Its
recent session, appropriated $9,000
j for the construction of three miles
of trunk highway on the 79 line be­
tween Hastings and Nashville, and a
similar sum to apply on three miles
west from Hastings on the Middle­
ville road, trunk line 37.
The three miles which it is pro­
posed to build on line 79 will start
Just east of the bounty farm, at the
end of the gravel road, and will run
east through Quimby to the Barry ville corners.
The work on line 37 will be from
the Hastings City limits west into
Rutland township. This will make
the road from Hastings to Middle­
ville on the north side of the Thorn­
apple river all In pretty good shape.
The county commissioners will ap­
ply to the state highway department
for the building of these two threemile stretches, which are on state
trunk lines and on which the state
bears a heavy part of the expense.
The county road commission re­
ported receipts for the year as $209,­
429. Expended for county road con­
struction $3,795; for Covert road
construction &gt;69,238; for county and
trunk line maintenance 324,864. The
balance on hand Is $11,530.
The board appropriated $1,000
for county Farm Bureau agent, $200
for the Michigan Children's home at
St. Joseph, and $25 for the W. C. T.
U. for religious services at the coun­
ty farm.
The salary of the prosecuting at­
torney was raised from $1,200 to
$1,500; that of the county clerk
from $1,200 to $1,800, the county
treasurer from $1,200 to $1,660. The
register of deeds is allowed $400 tor

IF YOU WANT
A REAL HEATER

4►

One that you can burn anything from saw dust
to anthracite coal.
&lt;, One that will heat the floor instead of the ceiling.
.&lt; ► One that is an ornament to your home.
4 * One that is to be relied on at all times for service.
;One that your money awaits you if not as represen ted.
4 ► One that has been sold in your town for quarter
of a century
without a single complaint. And, above all, the
price is ju«t right. It awaits your call on the
Soor, ready to go. If it fails, your money back.

tions of the country comes as a ray
of hope to a people groaning under
the burden of exorbitant prices for
everything we eat, wear or use.
It Is not the retailer who is feel­
ing the weight- of the law, as his
prices as a rule are quite within the
bounds of reason—at least' in the
country towns and rural districts.
The gougers who are being hit
are generally middlemen or whole­
salers, who have been juggling the
products back and forth, with a
price raise at every juggle.
Normally the law of supply and
demand regulates the price of a
commodity. But It has not been so
since the beginning of the war, be­
cause times have not been normal.
One of the principal reasons for
the existing high prices is the fact
that a commodity passes through too
many hands before it reaches the
consumer, and most of those hands
are experts at the pleasing' and lu­
crative occupation of gouging.
If public officials had taken a firm
stand as soon as the gouging com­
menced—if they had filled the jails
when the evil was In its infancy—
profiteering would never have reach­
ed the gigantic proportions which
now stagger the country.
But they didn't, and because of
their laxity we are paying the pen­
alty today.
Even at this late day, if our pub­
lic officials can be brought as a body
to a realxatlon of their duty—if they
can be prodded into an energetic
performance of that duty—we may
some day expect the law of supply
and uemand to again regulate the
price of the food we eat and the
other necessities we require in our
daily life.
We begrudge no man a dollar or
a million that is made honestly, but
that which is accumulated by dis­
honest or unfair practices should
land its possessor in prison.

Makes the most wholesome, nourishing, economical
food. Of all foods, bread, rolls, biscuits—everything
baked from flour—are the most nourishing, the most
wholesome. Contain all essential food elements for

LILY WHITE is a flour Containing the choicest selection of
soft and hard wheat grown in America. Soft wheat improves
the flour and color. It insures the baking of a good looking
loaf of bread. The flour is correctly balanced to make as
good bread as it does biscuits and pastry.

There is just enough hard wheat in LILY WHITE to mako
it the ideal all-around flour.
It is milled to perfection. After being cleaned four times it
is scoured three times, then actually washed, so that every
bit of dirt is removed from the kernels of wheat
The result is a flour of excellent color and perfect uniformity
of granulation. It makes light, tender, white, flavory bread,
rolls and biscuits, and pastry that melts ip the mouth.
Use LILY WHITE and beat the "High Cost of Living.” It
is guaranteed to give complete satisfaction. Ask for it at
your dealer’s.

Suspicious of a ruse, Bemm edged
around to the side of the opening and

Doctor Kirkland strode out of the path
to confront him, saw toe prisoner, and
stopped as if transfixed.
Tbe prisoner did not see him. He
was staring at the man who had
stepped from behind the dumfounded
physician. The man recoiled against
Ellen and Mrs. Kirkland. He glared
at toe prisoner. Ellen and Mrs. Kirt­

THANKSGIVING DAT PROCLA­
MATION.
"Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in
Zion; and unto thee shall the vow
be performed.
Thou crownest the year with thy
goodness;
„
----and thy paths drop fatneM.
The pastures are clothed with flocks;
the valleys also are covered over
with corn; they shout for joy, they
also sing.”
Following the custom established
by our fathers nearly three hundred
years ago, it is entirely fitting that
we shold set apart one day in the
year as Thanksgiving Day.
We have gathered this year a most
abundant harvest.
We have
enough and to spare.
Our own
people will be fed, and out of our
abundance we shall help to satisfy
the world's hunger.
For this and
for other blessings, for peace at home
and abroad, for the general spirit of
content, for work to do and the will
to do it, the people of Michigan may
well give thanks and make solemn
and public acknowledgement ot their
debt to the Moat High.
Therefore, I, Albert E. Sleeper,
Governor of the State of Michigan,
do hereby join the President of the
United States in designatng Thurs­

If I ever need
a reliable kidney medicine, I depend
on Doan’s.
I am glad to recom­

Mr. Bement gave the above stateiment on February 26th, 1913, and
on October 9th, 1920, he added: ”1

A great blessing had come to Bran
Worth and he was grateful for it and
cherished IL He had lost his wife aft­
er two years of married life and waa
about to abandon his pretty little
country place at Hexham, when a jx&gt;nr
relative asked him to take charge of
a child he had adopted, as be himself
was 111 and could not afford to pro­
vide for the boy, Eugene.
Out of sheer ptty and because he
was lonesome, Worth accepted the
duty. Tbe lad had a twisted limb,
was thin and pale and had to use a
crutch, but the shining soul in his
eyes very soon brought to Worth a
comfort and Joy that in a way took
the keen edge away from his recent
bereavement. In a short time the fiveyear-old waif had paid In gratitude
and love for the kindly care of his
new parent To him the dear little
farm was a paradise. He became the
friend of every bird, fowl and animal
about the place. His days were full
of song and laughter and be shared
and alleviated Worth's solitude.
Worth was seated in' the kitchen
mending a broken harness, when an
exultant shout from outside brought
him to the rear door. It proceeded
from the lips of Eugene. Worth lo­
cated him, alive with excitement,
limping about before the closed gate
of the chicken house, and as the little
fellow saw Worth he swung aloft his
crutch, shouting 'Joyously.
“Eve got them In—all of them !**
Oh. come quick and see!"
The chicken yard had been empty
for over a week and Eugene had
mourned sorrowfully, for the feathery
brood had been among his rarest pets.
A freshet had scattered devastation
throughout the entire district and they
had arisen one morning to find yard,
garden and field flooded and the 40
odd chickens drowned. The catastro­
phe had well nigh broken little Eu­
gene’s heart and Worth had It In his
mind to replace the loss., He hastened
to Eugene’s side now and in amaze­
ment stared into the denuded chicken
shelter.
“They came over tbe rise yonder
and walked right in.here as if It was
home!" cried the little fellow, "and I
shut them In. 'Look, a blue hen 1 Did
you ever hear of such a tiling before?
And nine little chicks. Hear them!"
“I declare!” uttered Worth, "where
can they have strayed from?"
“Maybe they got lost In the storm
and have been tramping ground In the
woods." suggested Eugene.
“Of course they must belong to some­
body," continued Worth, “although I
never saw a hen of that breed tiefbre.
Blue, sure as you live! At least
enough of the tinge to look like the
sky or the lake*. A Wealthy, thrifty
progeny, too. Well, get them some feed
and we’ll take care of them until the
owner turns up’.”
.
“And then •you’ll buy them, won’t
you? Oh. say you will," pleaded Eu­
gene urgently. "I’ve been so lonely
since the freshet, killed all tbe old
ones."
,
Nobody appeared to claim the blue
hen and nobody who saw It and Its
progeny had beard of a blue brood any­
where In the section. Two weeks went
by and Eugene had begun to acquire
a sense of permanent proprietorship
as to the wandering waifs, whea, one
morning Worth set off In his light
wagon to drive about thirty miles over
the state line to look over a team of
horses. He reached his Intended des­
tination. found the hordes not to his
liking and about noon was returning
homeward when, passing through the
little town of Brompton. he halted his
horse as lie noticed a lady's hand bag
lying In the middle of the dusty road.
Worth alighted and picked up the
object that bad attracted his attention.
He inspected Its contents to find inside
a few sliver coins, a pair of gloves
and an envelope. What had apparent­
ly been its enclosure lay folded beside
it, and Worth glanced at Its opening
lines to see if they would give him
any clew as to the owner of tbe hand­
bag.
“Well, this is queer," he cogitated as
he read the words: “Dear Sister
Madge: I suppose you will be glad
to hear from your folks In the Blue
Hen state," and there followed some
casual family news.
“'Blue Hen state'?" soliloquized
Worth. “I never heard of any such."
and glancing at the bead, of the letter
he found that it was dated from Dover.
Delaware. Then he read.the super­
scription of the envelope. “Mrs.
Madge Ellis."
“And you never heard of the Blue
Hen state—why, that is Just what they
call IL as they do another the Grass­
bopper state, and still another the
Badger state, and so on." lightly, cheer­
ily explained Mrs. Mudge Bills, a bux­
om widow of thirty, when Worth had
located her. "And you never heard
of a blue chicken before? That was
father's special breed when 1 lived at
home. And you’ve found my brood the
freshet drove out, and your little flby
is In love with them? Weil, finders
keepers, I guess. In this instance-"
And so Interested was the comely
lady that she promised to drive over
with her two little children some day

She repeated the pleasant visit twice

The best one we have heard of In
u long time was handed to a certain
Nashville married man last week.
This chap. who Is a ’'right good fel­
low," as they say in Indiana, except
that he has an over-fondness for the
ladiea. has been making surrepti­
tious love to a certain flirtatious
damsel for some little time past, and
was kidding himself that he was
making some headway.
Just be­
fore election day he made a wager
with her on election, betting a pound
of candy against sn evening date that
Harding would be elected.
Last
week he met his fair friend In the
postoffice and reminded her that she
owed him a date, and she graciously
said she would fill it all right, an he
set the next evening at 7:30.
Ev­
erything was apparently satisfactory
and all right and he was in the sev­
enth heaven of bliss until he got his
mall the next evening, when be open­
ed .a little package which came to him
through the mail.
It contained a
fresh date and a tiny note with this
message.
"Here's your date, Just
as promised.
I had two of them,
and I kept mine all right, so you
must consider the bet fairly paid."
And to tbe credit of the wooer, it
must be said that he took his medi­
cine with a full appreciation of Jts
humor and thought It was too good
to keep and he is telling it on him­
self among his close friends.
On­
ly he made us promise not to give
awsy his name.
Your guess is as
good as anybody’s.
And he went away whistling "I’m
Forever Blowing Bubbles.”
We saw John Andrews Monday
afternoon on his knees at a widow’s
window.

right*, because he said it was.

recently dfflkusslng'the idea of wo­

“My Kingdom for a How."
His name is Peterson and he
came to town the other evening Jo
meet his sister, coming from Grand
Rapids to spend Sunday with the
home folks.
Hitched his steed by
one of the reins and left him stand
while he took his sister to a movie.
When the show was over, no hoas
could he find, so they rode home with
some friends, expecting to find the
equine had gone on ahead. No boss
could he find again, so he started
out on foot and hoofed it back to
town on a hunt for the boss.
No
boss could he find some more. Well,
in the mean time, people driving
along the highway saw the rig—
boss driving himself toward home—
so Joe Oversmlth took It in and
stabled the equine in his barn.
Af­
ter Peterson had walked the five
miles hack to town, he learned the
whereabouts of the outfit, so he drill­
ed another mile and a half back to
Joe's and the rest of the way home
he rode, yea he did.
And he slept
well that night, too.

THE #16 HOG
■
1
HE $16 hog is a successful at­
tempt to citBcournge people from
eating meat three times a day.
The American people, as a clask,
have paid very little attention to the
hog tn recent years. They have been
too busy protecting margins and learn­
ing hnw to adjust the needle-valve
carburetor so tluit it would carb in
sequence. Whim a business man apcelved orders, to bring up a small sec­
tion of pig for dinner he did so with­
out taking his checkliook out of the
safe. When we look bark and see
how many lenn pork chops one could
buy for a quarter and then see how
far it will reach In that direction to­
day, we can see why so many people
turn vegetarians over night.
The $16 bog was caused by the Eu­
ropean war, the same as the price of
uncut diamonds and bronze, shoes.
Before the war a stout-legged, adult
American bog could be bought almost
anywhere for less.money Chan It takes

complete without a nine-pound pork
roast which could be strung along

The $16 hog has been a priceless
blessing to the farmer, however, as it
has enabled him to take nine fullgrown pigs and four runts to market
snd return with enough money to
choke a safety deposit box. Thou­

Investigators gjlng so far as to
locate a certain Mr. Fox who
owned a horse which trotted In
a peculiar fashion and, because
of which, he referred to one of
the newest of dances (at that
time) as a “fox-trot"
But, while there was a man
named Fox connected with the
origin of the term as common­
ly used today, be was a vaude­
ville dancer, not a horse fan­
cier. When this dancer desired
to introduce a number of new
steps into his vaudeville art,
early in 1914, he took certain
portions of tbe one-step and
added to them a number of
variations of his own. billing
the entire performance as “Tbe
Fox-Trot, a new dance originat­
ed solely by the performers
themselves." Society, eager to
take up something new in the
line of dancing, studied the
steps and It wax not long be­

kind of amusement. The only

Baptist Church Notes.
Everyone come to the United
Thanksgiving Service in ©ur church
on Thursday evening, the 25th, at
seven o’clock. Rev. Elmer Taylor
will preach to us. There will be an
ottering on behalf of the starving and
needy Syrians and Armenians. Then
let all remember our Bunday services.
Probably they will be the last that
the .writer will preach at until he
gives a farewell address on Decem­
ber 19, as it is likely Rev. Herman
Burns, a minister appointed by the
state convention, will be in charge
of the pulpit from December 5 on­
wards. More will be announced
later. Meantime we bespeak a warm
welcome for thia man of God who
comes to us with a fine reputation.
John G. C. Irvine.

Evangelical Notes.
The subject for next Sunday
ning will be "A Challenge for
Youth.” All are invited, but the
hour is especially for the young
pie.
“And he saw a Man” will be the
morning thought.
The splendid congregations, the
large Y. P. A. and that goodly num­
ber in Sunday school are anything
but lonesome.
Do your Sundays at home please
you? Do they please your God? A
welcome for you. .

against those other forces—those in­

The- space between the fore and
after decks of the houseboat was occu­
pied by a kind of cabin, with a cur­

single small window on each side. The
man suddenly stopped filing the fish
spear and glanced with quick anxiety
toward this cabin. A woman wa*

at a stride, ahoved aside the soiled and
rumpled curtain and entered. A dark,
iron-gray woman sat humped forward
in®a rickety old rocklngcbalr by the
window on the shore side. As if con­
scious of his Inability to help, possibly
calloused by long familiarity with sim­
ilar scenes, he stood looking down
upon her, with no expression of sym­
pathy other than a wince of pity in
his eyes.
She straightened after a Mine, and
lay back against tin- bed quilt spread

crossed the cabin, dipped up a tlnful

waved it away.

Without a word he set the cup hack

the narrow gangplank, and hurried
away up the slope toward the cliffs
that rose above the trees a few rods
back from the river shore.

Fallen Rock, with the broad- thin wa­

shelf between Its two breasts and lap­
ping the stone-strewn pool at Its base?
And the spring breaking out from un­
der the shale ledges of the cliff near
the west end of the old cabin and
trickling Its waters down a little sul­
phur-stained gutter into the pool—who
has not heard of It? Not to have
drunk of its waters was considered a
misfortune tn the Flatwoods, Just as
tn andent Greece It was considered
a calamity to die without having seen
the statue of Olympian Zeus.

the present day seven towns can be
seen from its summit; in the late for­

When the man returned to the
houseboat the Iron-Gray-Woman still
lay back in the shaky rocking chair.
Dipping the battered cup full of fresh
water, the man stepped to her aide.
“Your cool drink, mother."
Tbe thin lids raised. The eyes she
turned toward him must have been
wonderfully beautiful In her day—
large and deep and lustrous. The
cough that wasted her breast seemed
powerless to dim their luster.
The man crossed the cabin and laid
bis hand on the rumpled curtain over
the doorway, about to return to his
task of sharpening the fish spear.
“It looks cool—and calm—up there."
He paused; glanced back over his
shoulder at her, and waited for her
to go on.

- "Always, mother! Always the house­

The man left the window and knelt
by the rocking chair. The Iron-Gray­
Woman saw the question in his eyes—
a hunger for some word out of the
past; a word that had never come. AU
his life she bad kept It from him—
whatever It had been that happened
back there behind the veil of her si­
lence that left him nameless; a river
waif; a nomadin an orderly world; n
fisher of pearls; a pearlhufiter. Her
eyes came back .and faltered over him.
No longer a child; a boy—the reflec­
tion startled her. A man knelt ut her
side—the question written big upon
his face. And it was hia right to
know. Her head dropped back against
the quilt that cushioned the chair. It’s
a solemn thing to be the mother of a
man—glorious but solemn.
The lustrous eyes—‘brighter for the
fever wasting them—came back to him
after a time. He saw a far-flung
thoughtfulness in them; knew they
had strayed Into that past from which
he was barred. The thin lips parted.
The man's fingers curled tense upon
the chair arm.
“To a city on the Wabash, In early
days, came three families of Virginia’s
purest blood—my family, your father's
family, and the family of—of—another

The Iron-Gray-Woman shuddered
and was silent for a moment. The
man picked up a wasted hand; stroked
It softly between hfs own, and she
went on. strained and slow, like one
desperately nerved to a long-dreaded
task.
"My parents both died when I was
so small that I can barely remember
them, leaving me. their only child, to
the care of a distant relative, a great­
uncle of my father's. This great-great­
uncle—well, as I look back upon my
life I cannot remember that he ever
gave me a pleasant word.
"My aunt was as different as dawn
to dark. She was everything that he
was not. A thousand times' she loved

“They had a daughter, an /»nly child,
almost my age, and-of the same name
—surname and all. When uncle was
away on business trips, as he often
was for weeks, it was like sunshine
after rain. Such happy times I They
are high among the few pleasant
memories of my life."
The Iron-Gray-Woman paused, her
dark, deep eyes seeming to search
back Into the dead past, like a traveler
straining his gaze across a stretch of
desert to where the oasis lies. The
man shifted to his other knee and siw

Involved In debt It was to repair hia
wasted fortunes, as I now believe, that
he deliberately planned to win my
cousin's heart—and hand."
The cough threatened to come back.
She held her hands tight upon her
breast till she bad mastered it and
then hurried on as if afraid her
strength might not bold to say all that
had to be said.
"The very boldness of him fasci­
nated my cousin. Day by day his
power over her grew greater. I never
realized how great till one night with­
out taking even me Into her confidence,
she utterly astonished us all by elop­
ing with him. , I will never forget the
day that folio .ved. My uncle disowned
her, and sent after her a message that
she was never again to set foot luslde
his door. He raved and swore; drank
himself Into drunken madness; and
finally ended by driving me away also.
"Your father had already declared
himself. My uncle's cruelty hastened
our marriage. That same day he took
me to his home as his bride—to the
beautiful gray mansion .overlooking
the river. We've sometimes passed It
In our wanderings”—there came a
wistful pause—“hut I never allowed
you to know.
"There followed a year of such hap­
piness as I never knew could come to
this world—a year that has left bar­
ren all the years that followed; that
beggared all that went before I One
evening, almost a year to a day after­
ward, as I sat rocking you, a baby in
the cradle, and waiting for yqur father
to come In. thinking, strangely enough,
of my cousin, whom I had never seen
since the night of the elopement, a
slight sound at one of the low win­
dows caused me to turn. I was far
steadier nerved than I now am. but
I could hardly keep back a scream.
There stood my cousin’s husband. He
was speaking In a half whisper. But
for the moment I was too startled to.
make out what be said. He came out
from behind the curtains and drew
near. I shrank away. In low whis­
pers. for the maids were Just outside
the door, he was begging me to leave
your father and come to him—that he
had never loved my cousin—that I
must come—that It was always me.
His voice was hot as flame, but It
turned me cold. . I couldn't move. He
came close—stooped over me.
"A step sounded in .the hall. Half

“In this same dty upon the Wabash

family of—of—another man. Your
father and this other man were both

him—had startled her into silence.
“Like you." she resumed, “and not

I uncovered my eyes, expecting to look
upon death. But the—other man leaped
through the window and was gone.
“Your father put the maids out of
the room and stood over me. 1 dared
not look up. His face—it was ter­
rible! Once he raised his great arm
to strike. Tve prayed a thousand
times he had—it would have saved me
many a death.
“‘You—! But Ill not speak the
name that belongs to you.’ His voice
was hard; hoarse; awfuL ‘And I be­
lieved you I There's the window—still
open I Go, If you want him I I'm
through with you!’
“He strode out at the door and
slammed It after him. I have never I
seen him since." Tbe Iron-Gray- i
Woman shuddered; turned her face *
toward the strong rocks above the |
trees. “I remember I took one step*
after him. I knew nothing more till
some time late tn the night, when I
waked with your crying and found my­
self lying face down upon the floor.
My heart grew hard as I quieted yon.
He probably thought to find me next
morning all tears and repentance—for
a sin of which I was as Innocent as
the babe at my breast. I would show
him that my blood was proud as his.
Wrapping you In your cradle clothes,
I muffled a cloak about me and stole
from the house; stole down to the riv­
er. There I loosed a skiff, whose, 1
never knew, lay down In’the stem and
set It adrift There was not a star.
Only tbe moon looked down out of the
dull sky. pale and sickly and rimmed
with red; the gray sky my bosom; the
sickly moon my heart. I rose and tried
•to row, but a fulntne&amp;s came over me
and I lay down again in the skiff.
“The next I knew I was on a rode
bed in n houseboat miles down tbe
river, with a kindly family of pearl
fishers. They told me I had been sick
for a long time. When I grew strong.
I sold my Jewelry, all but my wedding
ring—that I saved for your sake—
bought this houseboat and became a
pearl fisher. You know the rest"
The Iron-Gray-Woman fell silent;
rocked softly back and forth -a time or
two; allowed the chair to settle still.
The mao reached an arm around her
shoulders and drew her head over
upon his breast The little act of ten­
derness seemed to touch her deeply.
For a long time the tears flowed on
while the young man knelt and mar­
veled.
“Mother," be raid very gently at last,
stroking her hair, “we must go back
to him."
He felt her quiver at the word. She
sat for a long time staring down at
the floor.
“For your sake—we must,** she an­
swered at length. “But not until you
are twenty-one, or—we find the peart
—the pearl!"
“But I am twenty-one in June—this
June—the twentieth; and this is the
thirteenth.

’ The man was trembling
with ’an eagerness he could not couceal. "The time is so near—bls name

searched her wet eyes for the
er. In sll his life, it was the first
time the curtain that hid Iflij past bad

ever raised. It must have been tha
fever that made her speak now. It
was no light matter 'to unlock that
door; to probe a wound of twenty
years. She trembled up from her
chair, her eyes wldq and wild.
"Your father—I” The young man.
too, had risen. She clutched hia arm.
“Your father—!"
The words seemed to choke her.
There came a torrent of coughing;
and the man gently eased her back
Into the chair.
As he stooped over her, anxious to
do something to alleviate her suffer­
ing. yet not knowing what, she raised;
her face in a gasp for breath, and he1*
saw blood upon her lips. He snatched
another cup of water and knelt beside
her. but for a long time she humped
forward, her shoulders cupped In nnd
her arms locked ns if trying to hold
back the cough, until she seemed ac­
tually to conquer it by sheer force nf
will. Finally she groped with one
hand for the cup; supped the cool wa­
ter. straightened, and lay back tn her
chair. There was no more blood on
her lips, and the man said nothing of,
the tiny fleck he had seen there.
“Mother, they're getting worse,
these spells. Let me bring the doctor
down from the village.”
Her eyes opened; she looked -up at
him with feverish quickness.
“Tve lived twenty years without the
world. I’ll not go back to it now."
“But, mother. If we Just keep on this
way, you’ll—you’ll’’—he hesitated at
the next word; finally let It fall—“die."
"Die I” she seemed to fondle tbe
word. “A small thing—to die!"
She sat musing as if she found a
melancholy comfort in the thought.
“But I shan’t die," she continued,
with a hasty glance up at his face.
“My cough is worse today because my
medicine is gone."
The young man started.
&gt;
“Your elecampane gone!"
“I took the last of
yesterday." I
“Mother!”
He went to the cook stove and lifted
the saucer from a small Jar in which
the roots were usually steeped. It was
empty and dry. There was a great ten­
derness Ln his voice as he came back,
and bent over her chair.
“You shall have your elecampane­
tea." he said, “if the roots are to befound in the Flatwoods; and you shall
sleep tonight in the old cabin up there
under the cool trees."
A ripple of pleased expectation, of
half-a wakened interest, broke the
drear surface of the weary face—like
a faint glow back of a curtain that
never raises.
He refilled the cup with cool water,
rummaged a spade out of the locker
under the forward deck, and was just
on the point of leaping to the bank
when he heart her speaking. He
poked his bead back Inside the cur­
tains, and she repeated what she bad
Just said:

OBITUARY.
Emmet E. Smith was born in New
York state, June 3. 1858, and died
at the home of his son Claude W..
at Detroit, November 17/ 1920. He
was married May 29. 1879. to Nellie
A. West of Kingsville. Ohio.
He
leaves beside* the loving wife, three
children, Mrs. E. W. Dolimaq of
Lansing and Claude W. and Floyd L.
of Detroit, and five grandchildren.
He was a resident*of Nashville for
28 years. He accepted Christ as his
Savior March 17. 1920.
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled.
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
God in His wisdom has recalled
The boon His love had given.
And though the body slumbers here.
The soul is safe in heaven.

port of tije State Federation at Sagi­
naw. She spoke of the "Colorful
delights of autumnal woods In the
atmosphere of June", of Saginaw's
slogan. "What's Your Hurry?” and
of a motto at the Y. M. C. A., "What
we are is God’s Gift to us; What we
Make of Ourselves is Our Gift to
God.”
The first real address was given by
R. O. Wyland of Chicago, on "Lay­
ing the Foundations of Citizenship
with the Boy and Girl.” He is an
organizer ot "Lincoln Cltiaens*
Leagues", which hopes to improve the
character of the coming generation
by inculcating In them the ideals of
Abraham Lincoln. Speaking of im­
migration he said: "Our responsi­
bility is that of assimilating this
great body of people and fusing their
best ideals and heart loyalties around
one flag. Wbat we can do for the
parents is limited, the hope of the na­
tion lies in the next generation.”
Like Burton, the new president of
Ann Arbor university, he believes
that character and citizenship are
above scholarship and should De so
graded. He contrasted Lincoln and
the Kaiser by saying: "Lincoln be­
gan his career on the woodpile,
while the Kaiser ends his life there."
Mrs. Smith liked Miss Jessie Ack­
erman of the Geographical society.
Her subject'was "Americanization as
Social Insurance." She told tbe
story of the child who said God took
the backbone of Adam to make Eve,
and one of a Japanese who came to
this country to study the school sys­
tem and went home to report that we
had no system. The Bible is not al­
lowed to be taught in the missionary
schools of Japan because it is not
taught here.
She concluded with.
“If you want real American cities
you must have real American gov­
ernment, and there is no better way
to do that than to Americanize the
school system.”
Mrs. Hamilton, In her president’s
address, warned that. "Swift endeav­
or by women to elect women to po­
sitions of public trust, regardless of
qualifications, would result in ex­
changing a tremendous opportunity
for leadership for a little brief au­
thority.”
The most forceful speaker of tbe
Federation was Prof. Chas. Zueblin
of Boston on "The Duties and Privil­
eges of American Citizenship." He
spoke of Congress as sometimes bet­
ter, sometimes worse, always bad. He
denounced the Esch-Cummins rail­
road bill as "The biggest steal put
over in many years." “A billion dol­
lars will be paid out of the pockets
of the public to incompetent railroad
managers who are unable to make
their-roads pay while good managers
who make a profit will get nothing."
He advisee the women to stay out
of parties. "If you want office, go in­
to the parties, but if you want pro­
gress. stay out. Woman’s power con­
sists in keeping aloft. ’ All the poli­
ticians are playing to get the inde­
pendent voter who holds the balance
of power. If the primary system
doesn't work well, remodel It. De­
mand the right to go to the polls and
vote for your man."
In summing up Mrs. Smith said,
"It was a gathering of motherly
women—stately women.
Women
with enormous diamonds, women with
none. Grandmothers and young ma­
trons, for it was their womanhood
brought them together.
They
worked for the things that affect
women hi relation to their homes
and to their children and to each
other.”
After more music Miss June
Brumm gave a report ot the County
Federation worthy of more space
than we have saved. It was bright­
ened by flashes of humor and under­
standing of serious discussion. S.-.e
said. "When a farmer got &gt;1,000
ahead he bought more land while tbe
city man spent 'it for the enjoyment
of the family and declared if the
farmer should follow his city broth­
er’s example there would be more
contentment on farms. She plead for
more reading in farm homes, quoting
Walt Mason; "I don’t care for tinsel
shows, for ragtime noise or things
like those for I have learned to
read.” .

afternoon. Next meeting m two

PIONEER RESIDENT DEAD.
Charles Henry Hanchett, who was
born near Nashville March 8, 184-4,
died at Vassar, Michigan, Nov. 15,
1920, aged 76 years, 8 months and
7 days.
Mr. Hanchett lived at Nashville
and at Eaton Rapids until 1879, at
which time he, removed to Texas,
Ohio, remaining there until October
20, 1920, when on account of 111
health he went to Vassor to make his
home with his daughter, Mrs. Wm.
McKeon.
Mr. Hanchett had four sisters and
three brothers, all of whom preceded
him in death except Lewis H. Hanch­
ett of Rampart, Alaska.
He served three years in the Civil
war as a member of the 17th Mich.
Vol. infantry, and was wounded
three times. At one time served un­
der Capt. Christian Rath, a prison
official who died in February of the
present year. He was one of the
few surviving members of the fa­
mous “Stonewall Regiment."
Mr. Hanchett leaves one daughter,
Mrs. Wm. McKeen of Vassar. Mich .
and one son, R. A. Hanchett of
Needles, California.
The Hanchetts were among the
first white people to locate in this
section of the state. They operated
the first mill on the Thornapple riv­
er, where N&lt;hville now stands, and
later one south and west of the pres­
ent location of Morgan, the neigh­
borhood still retaining the name of
"Hanchett’s Mills."

"Look here, Mose,” said the white
foreman of a gang of colored labor­
ers, "every time I come around you're
loafing. How does it happen I never
find you at work?”
"Ah’ll tell you bow come, boss,"
explained Mose aggrlevedly.

Nobody knew he even had a gun. We
very much doubt If he had a
hunting license, much leas one that
would entitle him to hunt deer. Just
the same, along comes a fine spike
buck, with a shipping tag bearing
Bert's well-known name and address.
Surely an air of mystery pervades
all this tale, yet there’s the deer,
and what argument prevails against
such conclusive evidence? Of course,
the boys in the store claim there is
a marked shortage in the stock of
calcium carbide, which might con­
vey an idea that Bert had been “shin­
ing,” but we hate to believe it of
him. Anyway, there’s the deer, and
Bert's folks are living high on ten­
der young venison, and he evidently
doesn’t care a whole lot how much
the people around town are guessing
about where it came from or how
he got It. This seems to be the one
rare case where possession is ten
points of law instead of nine, and it
looks as though the rest of us would
just have to let it go at that.

Robbed on the Train.
Frank Hartwell claims to have
been robbed on a Michigan Central
train the other day when he was com­
ing home from Charlotte. For some
reason, when the conductor came
along Frank was unable to get his
hand in his pocket to get money with
which to pay his fare, so the con­
ductor did it for him. Well, if that
is being robbed, we have all had it
done to us and there seems to be no
well-defined remedy.

If a sailor dreams of sheep It means
great luck and a safe and prosperous
voyage to him. If you see yourself
shearing sheep it is an indication that
you will shortly make money by a
business enterprise, though, accord­

that you will have to struggle hard
for this success. But it isn’t good to
see the sheep running away from you.
for that Indicates that some of your

injure you. It is a warning to be on
your guard. Also it is a bad sign to
hear the lambs baa or to see them

your Investments carefully if you
would profit by them.

”1 wish to praise Dr. LeGear’s
Poultry Prescription to Poultry
Raisers. I have 28 hens and had'no
eggs from them for over 4 months.
After feeding them two packages of
your Prescription, I gathered twelve
and one-half dozen. This is a posi­
tive fact, and I advise all Poultry
Raisers to use Dr. LeGear’s Poultry
Prescription if they wish their hens
to lay.”—Miss Carlina Freeman, Har­
riston, Miss.
You can also make profitable lay­
ers out of loafers by getting Dr. Le­
Gear’s Poultry Prescription from
your dealer and using It as directed
under Dr. LeGear’s satisfaction or

THE INQUISITIVE ROSE
NE summer day a Rose Bush

“How different It will be In this gar­

by the wall. "Not even the beauty of
the beautiful Rose can save her when

"When does this wonderful fellow

Bush.
“After nil you flowers are asleep,"
answered the Shrub. “You will never
see him. Rose, and even your beauty
could not save you. He would be'sure
to nip your petals and leave you with­

Rose Bush tossed her head. "I nm

The Big Tree and the Shrub in vain
warned her to go when the summer
days were over, but Inquisitive Rose
Bush would not heed them. “I want

them, “and show you al*o that lie will

Rose Bush kept one beautiful big blos­
som awake and waited to see Jack
Frost. Over the mountains and tree
tops he came softly and without his
Mother—North Wind—eo that no one
knew of nls presence until he leaped
the garden wall.
*
He espied the beautiful blossom on
Rose Bush the first thing, and quickly
he touched her soft petals with hla
long, icy fingers.
“J knew he could not resist me,"
thought Rose Bush, though she shiv­
ered under hl» touch, but she siav, too,
that she looked very beautiful In the
moonlight, all frosty from his reressefl.
The next morning, ns the sun
peeped over the wall. Rose Bush
looked so beautiful that the Big Tree
and the Shrub gazed on hpr with
admiration.
“You see, my friends, he did not
leave me to die," said Rose Bush ; "he
made me more beautiful than before."
But the B!g Tree and the Shrub
did not reply. They knew what would
happen when the sun shone on her In
a little while.
By and by the warmth melted the
frost and poor Rose Bush began to
droop, then her petals curled, and
before night she had withered.
“Boor Rose.” sighed the Big Tree,
"she was so Inquisitive she had to see
for herself.”
“I nm not sure whether It was her
vanity or because she was Inquisitive,"
snid the Shrub, “but It is Just as we
&gt;k!iI—rot evenhier beauty could save
her from Jack Frost’s frosty touch.”

She whirled: and the two stood star­

flowers straggled from her arms and
drlngled down upon the rocks.
The Pearlhunter’s eyes were the
first to fk!l. Dragging off his battered
hat, half awkwardly, he bowed his
bead and strove, for a word to Justify
his intrusion. But he was slow of
speech. Words came hard to him.
After a time, hia eyes traveled back

Amazed at the woodcraft that had
enabled the girl to disappear under
his very eyes, without so much as the
quiver of a leaf, the Pearlhunter
crossed the branch on the rlflle at-the
lower edge of the pool, by springing
from stone to stone, and went up to
the rock. There lay the flowers in
scattered confusion—a tumbled mass
of refreshing color; the half an arm­
ful of pink and white and red wild
roses. He picked up three—a pink;
a red; a white—and stood gazing
down upon them. The true woods­
man Is instinctively a gentleman. He
did not know—he did not try to know
—that the girl watched his every
move from behind a big oak a few
yards up the bank.
“Like her—somehow," be muttered.
“Wild Rose! It might be her name.
A name! I wonder what it’s like to
have a name!"
A thought shadowed his face—the
old thought that always brought the
cloud. His eyes narrowed; the lines
of his mouth drew tense. Drawing
the stems of the three roses through
a buttonhole in hl* blouse, he strode
away down the branch back to Fallen
Kock.
The languid eyes of the Iron-Gray­

sprang in over the sawing gangplank,

See That Hand, Young Man?
It can lead you away from discouraging thoughts—if
you-so wiU it.
What if eight men out of every ten are BROKE at 65 ?
What- if only two men out of every ten have the fore­
sight to provide for old age?
Sure it is easier to invent excuses for having spent—
than to tell why you DIDN’T save.
BUT—It’s not too late now.
. Be one of the TWO men out of the ten who are not
broke at 65—; be one of the two men out of ten who
have the foresight to provide for old age.
That hand will lead the way—to our bank—to a sav­

COMMUNITY CHRISTMAS TREE.
Plans are rapidly taking shape for
making the community Christmas
tree a success.
All committees have
been appointed and are getting to­
gether to see that nothing is lacking
in the essential features.
The following committees have
been appointed:
General Christmas Tree Commit­
tee — Verdon Knoll
(chairman).
Chester Smith. Clarence Mater, Chas.
Brumm. John Heckathdrn.
Carol Committee—Chairman group
I, Mrs. John Greene; chairman
group 2, Mrs. Carl Lentz; chairman
group 3, Mrs. John Taylor; chairman
group 4, Mrs. Libbie Marshall; chair­
man group 5. Mrs. Clark Titmarsh
Band
Committee — Howard
Sprague (chairman). H. W. Walrath,
Paul WattsK Carl Lentz.
Census Committee—Supt. C. S.
Harmon (chairman), Mrs. Linna Tut­
tle, Miss Edna Schulze.
Finance Committee — Len W.
Feighner- (chairman), Mr. and Mrs.
J. C. Furniss. George C. Deane.
Filling Committee—Mrs. Jesse
Miller (chairman), Mr. and Mrs.
Freel Garlinger, Mr. and Mrs. Joe
Bell, Mr. and Mrs. C. S. Carpenter,
Mr. and Mrs. Will Hanes. Mrs. Harley
Morgenthaler, Mrs. Edward Hafner,
Mrs. Bert Foster.

Grohe, Miss Bernice Mead, J. Clare
McDerby.
Carpenters—Will Dean. L. H.
Cook, Lee Swartz.
' Electrician?—N. A. Appelman, E.
L. Appelman.
This being the first attempt at a
community Christmas tree in Nash­
ville, it has been thought best to
make it for the little folks only, so
far as gifts are concerned, and to
make it a "Candy and Nut Tree,"
barring other gifts.
When the suc­
cess of the affair is demonstrated, it
will be up to the people of the com­
munity to say whether or not they
will make the affair next year one for
the general distribution of gifts. For
this year, however, it is proposed to
see that each child In the community
who comes to the Christmas tree
shall have a sack of candy, nuts and
popcorn.
The money for this pur­
pose is proposed to be raised by r
free will offering of the people of the
community.
For that purpose. Jars
will be placed in the various business
places of the village and it is hoped
that Christmas shoppers will be lib­
eral in their contributions, so that
no child who comes to the Christmas
tree will be disappointed.
Van Dyke has said: “Are you will­
ing to believe that love is the
strongest thing
in the world?
Stronger’ than hate, stronger than
evil, stronger than death?
And
that the blessed life which began in
Bethlehem 1900 years ago is the
image axjd the brightness of the
Eternal Love?
Then you may keep
Christmas, and If for a day, why not
always?
But you can never keep
It alone.”
The chairmen of the various com­
mittees are asked to meet at the
Community house Friday evening at
7:30, sharp, to confer in regard t6
arrangements.

Well, we heard Dr. Burns on Sun­’
day and enjoyed his kindly presence■
and fine sermons. It will interest
all to know he is a premillenarian,’
and it la easy to see he is true to;
the great furflamentals of the Chris­.
tian faith.
He has gone back to his home in
Cassopolis, and wires me he can re­
turn to Nashville January 2.
We shall be here two more Sun­days and hope to m«et our friendsi

Also, there’s Hack Jasma, who re­
cently moved on the Hayes Tieche
farm in West Kalamo, who has start­
ed off on the wrong foot the first
thing. Had four nice white roosters
in his pen which he was feeding for
eating purposes. Killed one of them
the other day and just after the
slaughter a neighbor called up and
Inquired about a pedigreed white
rooster which he had just bought and
which was to have been the head of
is new flock, but had turned up miss­
ing. It could be identified by marks
on toes. Jasma hadn't seen anything
of the stray prise bird, but went and
looked over his flock and there were
all of his four white roosters.
Scratching his bead, he returned to
the house and looked over the roost­
er he had just killed. And b'gosh
there were the identification marks of
the missing white rooster. Well, he
couldn't put the severed head back
on the bird, so he did the next best
thing, just went ahqad and finished
dressing him for the family table.

THE MYSTERY.

Heard a rustle In the brush
Only yesternight;
h rustle In the hush,’
Somethin' out of sight—
Jest a footfall on the ground,
Shakin' of a tree;
But we argued all around
What .the thing could be.

Heard

Jack, the stable-boy, he said
*
Likely 'twas a colt—
Farmer's colt thet got Its head,
Broke Its halter holt.
Bill, tbe cookhouse flunkey, swore
Twas a bear er cub
Huntin' round the cookhouse door
Fer a snuck of grub.

Pete. who likes to hunt when fall
Comes around each year,
Said it wasn't that at all—
Thet it was a deer.
Frank, who drives the two-ox pair,
. Said they made him laff.
Said their colt er deer er bear
Simply was a caff.

So they set an' argufied
What the thing could be;
Ev’ry fellah took a side.
Had a theory.
Jack he chinned it with the chape,
Bill with all the boys;
Mac. who’s deef, he said perhaps
There wasn’t any noise.

What the rustle was about.
No one ever knew;
But one fact I figgered out
From that gabby crew:
People look with diffrent eyes,
Hear with diffrent ears;
That what closest to them lies
Our first guess—it’s on the roostEverything appears.

As an evidence of how real life
really is to the little folks, a Nash­
ville kid. when he came homo from
school one day last week, declined
some proffered candy “until after
supper.” because the visiting nurse
had told the kids candy should only
be eaten after meals.

Ev’ry nation is the best

Ev’ry state, beats all the rest

It's just ns sensible to say a good
word for the creamery company when
we are getting good milk as It would
be to kick our fool beads off if the
stuff was poor. Dop’t you think?

these days of no work such a pro­

work—a job without regard to hours.
Of course the farmer has long been

Tbe Boss slipped an oar Into the
water and laid tbe boat more toward
the south shore, over the deepest part
of the bar. Hardly had be done so
when the Pearlhunter lowered the
point of his spear. The outllifr of an
immense black bass took shape upder
the glare of the jack light, half hidden
among the swaying verdure, as tf ly­
ing In wait fer his prey, which in all
likelihood he was, a scaly tiger of the
stream in ambush. The spear slid Into
the water and stole toward him. All
unalarmed he lay, his fins Idly fanning
the fern-llke moss In which he lurked,
little’ suspecting the five-pronged death
creeping upon him. The points were
within three feet of the grossing scales
when the Pearlhunter struck. There
followed a moment of fierce flurry
among the waving ferns; a little
shower of spray broke the surface of
the water, and all was over. A fish
docs not struggle lung when the spear
goes hnme.
"Six-pounder, If he's an ounce,"
chuckled the Boss when the fish lay in
the bottom of the boat. The Pearl­
hunter rested his spear upon tbe gun­
wale and bent above the Jack light.
The boat drifted on.
If'Wajf perhaps half an hour Inter I
when. In the leisurely manner of men
returolng from a season of successful
sport, the two fishermen, with the pick
of all *tbey had floated over In the
bottom of the boat, rowed up the
stream. The. glare of the campfire
was beginning to slither upon the drip­
ping oar blades and the ripples they
raised when the Boss laid the boat
nearer the south shore with the re­
mark: ‘
“Here’s where we’re expectin’ t*
h’lst th’ shiners tomorrow—all along
here. Jist look, at th' tracks. Make a
right smart track, don't they, fer n
beast without no feet?"
The Pearlhunter made np answer.
Crouched down by the jack light-well
toward the bow of the boat, he had
been for some time watching the un­
usually thick tangle of winding marks
upon the slimy bottom, plowed there
by the mussels or clams while feed­
ing. dozens and hundreds' of the creep­
ing bivalves, half burled in the ooze,
nt that very moment dotting the river
bed.
The Boss was In the very act of
turning the' boat across the river -ao

evcltetl exclamation from his compan­
ion. who had suddenly hunt low and

He was up on the instant and bad

The old Ross had nd sooner enught

the echoes up and down the river
shore, and brought tbe five inen at the
camp running down to the water’s
edge.
'
"A Blue Moon I" he yelled. “By the
gods, a Blue Moon!"
He snatched It from the hand of his
companion and held It under the full
glare of the* Jack light. Next moment
he had handed It hack and was driv­
ing the boat to shore, where the first
glance at the peculiar markings of the
mussel Instantly threw the whole
ramp Into the wildest excitement.
They spread down hy the light of
the fire the whitest cloth the camp af­
forded. and tbe Boss cut tbe mussel
open. One pearl, large, lustrous,
dropped out upon the cloth and lay
twinkling up Into their faces like»a

NOTICE.
Some time ago we had tbe tuber­
culin test applied to our herd of cat­
tle, and since that time the report
has circulated that we had lost sev­
eral bead from that disease and had
more that would have to be killed.
That is entirely untrue. The test
was applied by Dr. J. O. Nicholson
of Bellevue, an experienced veteri­
narian, and he will bear us out in the
statement that not a single animal
showed the least reaction In the test.

(the Srasnn’s Greetings
IO matter what the weather-—sunshine, rain, snow, blow, cold or
warm, the Christmas season is a
time when the true heart of the
world should beat in unison in deference
to the Wonder Man of all time, whose
birthday we then honor, and whose bright­
ness illuminates all the dark corners of the
universe.
What more fitting than at this time all
the people of all the races of the world
shoqld give glad acclaim to the coming of
Christ, and make the day one of universal
rejoicing?
In the true spirit of the day, the News
gives glad greetings to its readers, wher­
ever they may be, and wishes for them
their full share of joy and happiness.
May the day be one of brightness and
good cheer, with no cloud of illness or
disaster to mar your happiness, and the
coming year bring to you the fruition of
your best aims and desires.

those who have falb-n «n our battles

of the thousands of children who have
no share in that easy life we give onr
children, pnd must find the season’s

tbe barter to which we have debased
our giving within our circle of ac­
quaintances, we play at extending the .
spirit of the day to those who are
tbe pawns of our industrial game. The

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
Out of the more than 3,000,000 Ford care now in use, about
sixty per cent have been sold to farmers. Probably no other one
thing has brought to the farm so much of comfort and profit as has
the Ford car. It has enlarged the social life, doubled the facilities for
marketing, brought the town next door to the farm, multiplied for
the farmer the pleasures of living, and by the same token the Ford
Touring Car has brought just as much pleasure to the residents of the
towns and cities, because it is an every day in the year utility,
answering the demand of quick transportation at low expense. A
family car without an equal in low cost of operation and maintenance.
We solicit your order for one. We have the full line of Ford cars.
We carry the genuine Ford Parts, and assure you the best in
mechanical service and the most reasonable prices.

Philosophy of Life.
Instead of lamenting and bemoan*
Ing what seems to be cruel life, we
can. If we have the ri^ht philosophy
of life, find a harmonious note in the
disagreeable environment frym which
we cannot at present extricate our­
selves. As the oyster covers with pearl
the Irritating sand which has got in­
to its shell and makes of it a thing of
beauty, so we, too. with kindliness,
courage and good cheer, can convert
the conditions which now seem un­
thinkable to us Into sunshine and
gladness.—Orison Swett Harden.

The Fordson Tractor
The Fordson Tractor on the farm makes the farmer a manu­
facturer. It takes the stingy drudgery out of much of his work.
He farms with brains and the Fordson does the work.
It also meets a large demand for various kinds of power on
the farm. It drives the feed grinder and all the other farm sta­
tionary machinery. It not only does a lot of the drudgery, but it
saves the fanner a lot of real money.

We ask all progressive farmers to give us an opportunity to
make a practical demonstration.
Yours for practical service,

Mr. Hubert Armstrong came direct­

as though every time she
turned around she should

or a small chubby child of
her. own—one of those si*
had dreamed of and who had never
stepped outside of ber dreams.
Teal Bhe, Gertrude Harding, was a
“born mother* to whom no children
had been bora.
Bht this year • she had forgotten
something most Important to be done.
And It was only several days before
Christmas.
She went down town, made her pur­
chase after quite a delay and left the
shop.
Outside were three small children,
their faces close against the window
pane, their eyes gleaming, their small
Iil-cJad bodies tense and quivering
with emotion.
“Aw, gee, look at It stop st the sta­

He had never been aaked to stag be­

people were and where people listened
to him, not because he was being vis­

somehow or other they liked bls voice.
It rang out true and strong. He
shifted t?ie cratch which lie had never
been without and which he would nev­
er be without to the end of his days,
and then he was naked to sing an en­
core.
.
His face was flushed with the pleas­
ure of doing something which was
liked in this big outside world.
He looked at Santa Claus and
teamed.
He hnd already sung a popular song
which he had learned from the squeak­
ing talking machine which someone
had given the hospital when It was no
longer fit for tlie home, and now he
thought he would stag something bet­
ter. Somehow he felt It would be
proper, and vaguely perhaps he felt It
would ahow a gratitude for Christmas
that went deeper. Dimly he thought
these things.
Someone had taught them a hymn

the United States in the last year.
More than 82,000 tons was imported.

the relation of halos to rainfall show
that during the summer months 50 to
60 per cent of all lyilos are followed
by rain within 86 hours. During the
winter months 70 to 75 per cent are so
followed. Precipitation follows sooner

Substitute for a Tree.
We are not going to have a Christ­

make them brilliant many pretty little
oruaiuent* are needed and they cost ■
good deal. My plan is for a barrel
in place of n tree. I have the barrel
now in a closet. It is covered with old
dark green cambric and the day before
the great holiday I am going to pin
sprigs of evergreen and holly over it.
It will look pretty gay, I think, when
it Is-filled with the gift* that are go­
ing into It now, all prettily tissued
and tied, and my son as jolly Old
Santa Claus stands over it to delve in­
to its mysteries and to proclaim the
names of those who are to solve them.
I am sure we will enjoy our barrel a*
much as we would a tree.

T

be safely asserted that
Christmas Is ti e merriest and the
best of all holidays, and one
which Is likely to be observed for
ages yet to corue. Nations may
rise and fall, new belief* and re­
ligions may sweep away the old,
but that would seem, indeed, a
dreary and empty year which
brought no merry Christmas in
Its annual round. May old Fa­

hearts of all with Its coming,
and may each Christmas be
still merrier than the last.

'An Ancient Christmas Dish.
An indispensable Christmas dish of
ancient times was “frumenty” oe
“frumante." Here Is the recipe fot
making tbe dish according, to a faith­
ful old chronicler; “Take clean wheat
and bray It in n mortar until tbe hull*
be all gone off. and seethe it until it
burst, and take it up and let It cool;
and take clean, fresh broth and sweet
milk of almonds or sweet milk of klne
and temper it all; and take the yolk*
of eggs. Boll It a little and set It
down ami iness It forth with fat veni­
son or fresh mutton." Frumenty was
often served alone without venison nr
mutton. When mtvm! by itself It wan
well sweetened.

ESSIE LOUISE was mak­

Invalid mother had
brought Tessie to tire city
hospital to be treated for
her spine, the golden­
haired baby had been the
pet of the nurses. And
'as her stay was -pro­
longed, partly because tbe
mother was too 111 and too poor to Vet
understand the care of her child.
“What in the world." asked the au­
tocratic young house doctor, "does that
child want?"
“Tess-’ese wants a Nora Chrlstma*
doll." the nurse said eagerly.
Doctor Bruce wrinkled his brow.
“What does she mean?” he asked.
“Miss Nora DeAn," the girl an­
swered, “Is a young woman who vis­

pleased; they call her the Cuke Lady.
Doctor Bruce frowned.
“That’s bad practice," he com­
plained, "allowing women to come It*
here and feed our patients. I did not
suppose—’’
The pleasant nurse hurried to cham­
pion her friend.
She has helped us In many ways. 1

If she were not—”
The pleasant nurse paused, “in hutable circumstances herself."
"The young woman you speak of
lives on the lake shore?" the doctor
asked.
The nurse nodded.
“Her uncle was an old sea captain,”
she told him. “Miss Nora made her
home with this uncle and aunt when
she was as small as Tessie here.
“Now she Ilves on in the house at
the water’s edge to take care of her
aunt, who Is old and crippled. And
still that girt—"
The pleasant nurse choked up unac­
countably.
"Well, she’s always trying to do
things for others." she finished; "that
is the way Nora Dean finds happi­
ness."
"Great ScottI” Interrupted the doc­
tor. "there goes Tessie again; that*noise must be stopped. She must not

The prettiest nurse came hastily.

to have her driven out to the laker

"How far out is it?" Doctor Bruce
asked briskly.

It was a broad, white kitchen, redo­

“You must give the doctor a cu»«

Ernest Dalzlel would * have Uked
to have asked Powers an Important
question. It would have been,,if ut­

I

would have .answered:
*Oh. we
couldn't get along 'without* Portia.”
And then Dalzlel would hnve sought
wme plausible excuse to prevent hla
own appearance on the scene.
He was sensitive about Miss Portia
Moore.
She was, like himself, past
thirty. For some months In the years
past those two had been In consider­

the gosslpers predicted an engagement
It did not come about, however. Ab­
ruptly the two persons apparently so
adapted to one another drifted apart.
To Dalzlel this unexpected ending to
the one lovely day drcam of his ex­
istence had come as a seemingly heart­
less, cruel blow. Effectively Miss
Moore, one day had shut heart and
tiomc against him. There was no ex­
cuse or explanation given.
"She had Just tired of me. I don’t

quized to himself In a fit of depression.
For a time be threw himself in the
way of the lady in question, but she
gave him no encouragement Dalzlel
did not go about wearing bls heart on

Mrs. Powers tiptoed Into the room

“Now, Portia, free confession!" she
spoke, and disappeared.
And then, like two wounded doves,
these ardent lovers faltered forth, the

Tlie

Pearlhunter dared to think aeriously

that very

from the bar. He tried to rally the question: a question In two parts;
first,
whether

Rock; second, whether to make an
stallment of the Indian wars.

Half disgusted with it all. he turned
back to the bar and stood leaning his
chin upon his hand. A door opened
from another part of the building—
the Mud Hen being an Inn, the only
one In the place. A mnn entered.
Crossing the floor with as little atten­
tion to the crowd as if tbe place had
been deserted, he swaggered up to the
bar. Perhaps he secretly wished that
somebody would get In his way. He
had just that air about him.
The Pearihunter heard the door
open; felt the hush that fell—the
hush that always falls upon the rab­
ble at the coming of a masterful pres­
ence. He turned his eyes slowly to­
ward tbe newcomer. His nerves were
aa steady as the woods make them,
but they ware not quite proof against
what he saw. It was the Man-ln-thaFancy-Vest
„
A look flashed between them. The
Pearihunter fancied the other stif­
fened, and be was quite ..conscious of
a tightness creeping into bis own
spine.
The Blue Moon was still lying on its
bit of cloth upon the bar, where,
among the river men, it was as safe
as anything of value ever gets to be
tn this avaricious world. He deliber­
ately picked it up and thrust it into
his pocket
It was a distinct affront. Blood
had run in the Flatwoods for less. The
man facing him started; flushed; his

inside the door.
At the moment, a yotmg woman

He turned, and. without a backward
glance, stalked down the road to­

The Pearlhunter stood gazing after
him. The Ret! Mask—and he hadn’t

hadn’t struck. Each time there had
been death in his-eyes. What wa»
holding his hand? Was he biding his
time? It was not a pleasant thing to
contemplate, for any man can kill
another if he waits his opportunity,
snd takes him at a disadvantage.
Why hadn't he struck? Always the
question came back to that And
what was holding him to the Flat­
woods? The Pearihunter whirled with
the thought, and looked back over the
fence.
The girl was gone.
The basket and bundles were still
scattered about the path. He climbed
the fence and began gathering them
up. He had them all back tn the
basket and was leaning against the
fence, wondering bow to get them to
their proper owner, when a slight
rustle among the bushes reached his
ear. He glanced up; the girl stood
before him.
It was the glri of the pool—the
Wild Rose.
The woods had hid them; the woods
had nursed them; the woods had set
them face to face—the Pearlhunter;
the Wild Rose—a man; a woman.

the thought uppermost in the mind of
the Pearlhunter—that other meeting.

nearer. The bushes she had been
bending aside sprang back into place.
She drew another step nearer. As
she moved, an overhanging limb
caught tlje sunttonnet and dragged It
off, displaying a very soft and glossy
mass of yellow curls. She turned,
disengaged the bonnet from the limb,
and was shaking tbe curls into shape
to replace It when the Pearlhunter
made a quick step toward her with
hand upraised.
“Don’t!" he cried. “Don’t—"
A man of slow speech, with eyes
hard to wake, he wouldn’t have be­
lieved such words were In him.
The girl stood fumbling the bonnet.
He watched one stray curl lose ite

little by little, till It fell over her
shoulder and lay upon the softly ris­
ing and falling bosom. From the curl,
he raised his eves to her face. Ho

but also to the fermentation set up

the purity and the sucrose content
This loss was based upon the estimate

By the Bur&lt;nnw*te*.

We think Jt 1* really shameful the
way the fellows pick on a newly-wed
here in Nashville. One of the very
meanest jokes that we have heard of
in a long time wa* pulled last week,
when a new groom met a couple of
hl* friend* on the street. He had
hi* arm* full of packages, because
you know how many things one has
to gather up at such times that had
not been anticipated, and among the
package* wa* a box of cigars. Well,
he couldn't open the box of cigars
with his arms so full, so he asked
them to step inside the barber shop
with him, which they did. There
he laid down his various parcels, open­
ed the box ot cigars and passed the
smokes around. Then while he was
gathering up his packages again
those two “friends” picked up the
box of cigars and vamoosed and the
new groom moseyed along homo and
never missed it. They had a bit of
remorse afterward, evidently, for
they set the box of cigars out on the
show case at Deane’s and put a card
on it with the compliment* of the
groom.

By T. B. Aldmoa

N OLD man sat dreamily
gazing Into the fireplace of
8 richly furnished room. It
F/W\\ Wfl’ Chrlstma* eve nnd
\ Marvin Hughe* was looking
L
back over the year* of his
Hfe and was grave and sad­
dened as he realized that he
had neither chick nor child
of his own. as the echo of
music and the voice* of rollicking chil-'
dren In the apartment overhead were
borne to his ears.
The recognition of the fact that he
was getting old. that be was missing
something In life that might make
him better and happier, appealed to
him powerfully thia Christmas eve.
He bad mechanically distributed the
usual Christmas largesse at the office.
Homeward bound he had neglected no
appeal from the street m endI can L.
This was not soul-satisfying, however.
It had dawned upon him that he had
brought bls isolation upon himself;
that there were at least two person*
In the great city who were of kith and
kiu and he set to summing up the
duty he owed them.
“I have been no closer to them than
if I were an utter stranger," he'solilo­
quized. “It 1* my fault. I suppose, for
I have encouraged neither; for years
I have simply sent them the usual hol­
iday check. When I am through with
what I Lava 11 must go to others.
Which of the two deserves recogni­
tion—Etta Hames or Alberta Norris?
The first named was a widow and
second cousin. Hughes had supplied
the capital to start her In a bearding
house at her urgent request and she
had managed to make a living out of
it. For a time he called and she hnd
put herself out to make upon him an
impression of admiration of his suc­
cessful business record, of gratitude
for his financial co-operation, of her
love and devotion for him, the last
near relative she hnd in the world.
Then, too, she had appealed to him
tn
strong way. Once she hnd taken him to a draperled niche off the
sitting room, and had showed him a
life-sized oil painting of his dead
mother.
“She was like a sister to md." said
Mrs. Hames pathetically, “and you
know brother Willis was quite a por-

trait artist. I have always treasured
it as the one precious memento of my
life."
Hughes was duly Touched, but the
Impression was not lasting. There
was something artificial and Insincere
about Etta Hanies. Under the infiuence of his present emotlop*. howev­
er, his softened spirit, longed for loy-1
al companionship.
“I'll do it I" spoke Hughes. "I shall
call upon Mrs. Heroes and Alberta.
One or the other I will endow with
fortune and I hope to trace out some
real affection for me; a genuine glad-,
ness to welcome me as a memt&gt;cr of
their household during my remaining
few years.”
An hour later he entered the home
of Mrs. Barnes. He was told that she
was out on an errand and was Shown
Into a sitting room. Involuntarily
memory directed him to the "niche
where he had viewed his mother’s por­
trait It was not in place. Then as
he glanced Into the room beyond
Hanies Haw it lying across two chairs,
used as an Ironing board. The shock
drove him to his feet He had fa th- j
omed the insincerity of tills unworthy,
relative. He was half-minded to re­
turn home. A memory of the last
time he had seen Alberta, her hus­
band and children, l.owever, infiuenced him to follow out bis prescrltied
plan.
They had always lived humbly, bui
respectably. From the day thai Al­
den NojtI* bad married Alberta he
had but one thought in bls mind—her
comfort and contentment and that of
the little ones who came to them as
the years passed on.

only gives protection in case of death but if premiums are

which she. too. had searched a life­
time.
"And then—" she repeated, when it
seemed he was not going on.
A tiny breeze fell Into the woods
through the gap cut by the road, and
stirred the leaves. There Is death as
well as life Id the woods. Death al­
ways ; even In June. The breexe
found a dead leaf among the living
ones and shook It loose. It threat­
ened to light on the girl's bright hair,
but fluttered down past her face and
fell at her feet.
The breeze; the falling leaf—the
woods, her woods, had whispered; and
she heard.
“Daddy!" she cried suddenly. “I’ve
left him tno long.”
Her voice had grown serious. She
held out her band for the basket. The
Pearlhunter passed It over and she
turned away.
It was an awkward parting and the
Pearlhunler felt It. but he wns a man
of slow speech. His words had to be
chipped by hand out of the rough, one
at a time, as men of old fashioned
their arrowheads.
“Wild Rose!"
She turned. The name hnd brought
the dimples back.
“May I walk along with you?"
The words were past recall before
hr knew it
“The woods are as much yours as
mine.” was her smiling answer^.
He never could remember Just bow
the basket managed to get from her
arm to his as he walked away with
her. the sole recollection that stood
out In his memory being the fact that
the path seemed to fly up nnd hit his
feet before he quite had time to set
them down.

CHAPTER V.
Cabin of ths Three Gables.

pitiful eyes; unmistakably, though he
had never seen It before, the gaunt,
gray face of the Wild Man.
The Pearlhunter glanced quickly at
the girl, to find her eyes still fixed
on her basket, and when he looked
again at .the bushes, the face was
gone.
As his gaze searched the under­
brush. a glimpse of a gray shadow
flitted along under the cliff and dis­
appeared behind th&lt;* cabin.
He
couldn't leave her now—and yet by
what excuse could he stay?
“You have a pretty place here,” he
said, probably because he couldn’t
think of anything else to say. “A
pretty place—all so natural; the
woods are hardly disturbed a bit—but
aren’t you—afraid?"
“I haven't been till—today." She
raised her eyes to his face. The store­
keeper's story came to her mind ;—
the grave at Fallen Rocks; the lonely
cabin to which he would have to re­
turn. And he had just rendered her
n service—the age-old service of man
to woman. . “Won’t you come up to
:he house?"
'
The Pearlhunter little knew how
that simple Invitation honored - him.
No other man had ever received IL
Td Ilka to."

________ . '

He said U so seriously that the girl
laughed.
Carrying the light basket between
them they walked up what might be
called, for want of better word to
name it. the front yard. There was
not the least necessity that two hands
should be laid to that one light basket
It just happened, as do so many other
phmsant things in this delightfully un­
orderly world.
At the door she stopped and faced
him. A deep seriousness bad filled
up the dimples.
“Mr.—Penrlhunter—"
The slow eves of the mnn found
her face, and she paused.
“You told me to leave off the Miss.
Tm askin' you to leave off the Mr."
Hie dimples came back, bur only
for a moment
"—Pearlhunter." The name came
strange to her. “You will be the first
man. except my father and the doc­
tor, that has crossed his doorstep
In seven years." Her voice fell very
low. “You must not be surprised at
what you see."
From behind the closed door of the
cabin came a groan—not of physical
pain, but one that seemed to mutter
up out of a wracked soul. The girl
dropped her side of the basket handle.
“Daddy!” she cried; and dashed the
door open.
The Pearlhunter was a hard man
to jar out of his habitual calm, but
the sight that met him as he followed
her across the door-step struck hiiu
rigid and staring.
A huge Iron gray shell of a man
rose slowly In the shadow the late af­
ternoon cast over the room. The
light that fen In Rt the o|&gt;en door
brought out the pathetic, nervous
quiver of his face; the solemn vacancy
of his pitiful eyes. It was the Wild
Man.
The girl ran to him and put her
arms about his shoulders. He seemed
not to feel her touch. Slowly and
noiselessly be approached the Pearl­
hunter. A leaf couldn’t have drifted
across the floor more silently, or
more Involuntarily. Some extraneous
force seemed to drive him.
The girl clung to him and trie-.’ to
coax him. even drag him. back Into
his chair. He seemed to be utterly
unaware of her weight. There was a

For some distance back from the
river the Earthmaker scrambled the
Flatwoods. Scrambled—that's exactly what seems to have happened to s
strip along the north bank. A maxe

all bearded thick with trees and dense
underbrush; all alive with the teasing
mystery of growing things.
The pgtb the girl traveled wound

through the heart of the hills, deep
Into the mystery of the thick woods,
until It turned sharply and led up the
east bank of Wolf run. the little
stream In which the Pearlhnnter bad
washed the elecampane roots.
A short distance above the pool, so
near that the Pearlhunter wondered
he had not seen It before, a threegabled, one-story log cabin snugged
back against the bluffs just where they
left the bank of the stream and curved
to the east A step further, a small
plot of rreek bottom had been cleared
and fenced—what the Flatwoods called
a “garden patch." Back of the gar­
den. a stable hugged the hiuff. but ft

The cabin was built of hewn logs,
notched artistically at the corners.

He stepped aside out of the open
door and let the sun in. It streaked
across the floor and caught her
where she stooped over the old man's
chair.
She seemed for the moment to have
forgotten bis presence. He glanced
around the cabin. It was really four
cdblna—four rooms—under one roof.
The door by which they bad entered
faced* south. He stood In the center

His gaze traveled to the fire place.
A revolver—a very dependable look­
ing six-gun—lay upon the mantel.
Above it. arranged across a draped

The half minute or more he bad
spent looking over the room had giv­
en him time to recover his calm, and
now his glance came back to the ruin
In the chair.
The Wild Man was whetting his
knife against his palm, mumbling and
muttering. He seemed to gloat oyer
the glitter of It—and the girl within
easy reach of his hand. The Pearl­
hunter stiffened; gathered himself to

Seemingly unconscious of any danger,
she came to the door, picked up her
basket and his hat and put them on
the table beside the vase of wild roses.

hunter.

and the general unsightli­
ness of the slums, although
its population malhly rep­
resented poor, while thrifty people.
The men were hard working and toher, the women Industrious nnd rare­
ly slatternly. In fact, old John Helms­
by, who owned the square of build­
ings, had selected a reputable clien­
tele as to tenantry, and In lower cir­
cles Helmsby Corner held a certain
air of aristocracy.
Ivan Vidal was a decided institu­
tion of the place. Old residents could
remember him btftk for ten years. He
was a little, bright-eyed man whose
constant sndle and eager, friendly
ways scattered sunshine.
“I have to work hard. I have a big
family, you know." Ivan delighted to
tell strangers and new friends. And
then he would count on his fingers,

“Grandpa, Grandma, and the five lit­
tle children," and the lovelight would
come Into his eyes ns he enumerated
them specifically: "Rebecca, Rachel.
Ruth. Jacob and Levi."
But the big family did not entirely
represent kith ami kin of-the generous
hearted fellow who hnd come from
his home acrossdhe water with a wife,
to lose her in a year, and to have her
aged father and mother, neither now
fit for hard work, ns pensioners upon
bls bounty. How gladly and unself­
ishly this wns awarded. the uniform
willing kindness and care of Ivan
manifested to ‘all the world. He did
not earn much and their quarters
were confined, but not only did he
rnannge to’ make the old people com­
fortable, but when n close friend, a
widower, died. Ivan adopted his five
little ones.
“1 have none; they shall l»e as my
own," he pleilged himself, and never
failed in the snored pledge.
Ivan wns a peddler of pins, needle*,
yarn, and hose.
An incident occurred about six
months before Christmas* that gave
Ivan a secret to keep. but the result
of which Ag_dld noj experience until
later. OnKdA.Fwrtte n distance from
the city, seated Sating his humble
lunch on the veranda of a road house
he overheard two men talking. They
mentioned a name that caused Ivan
to prick up his ears. It was that of
Alma Helmsby. the daughter of his
wealthy landlord. Ivan wns quick
wltted. pieced together the facts
named, and comprehended that one of
the men expected to have Miss Helms­
by meet him soon lu her automobile
and they were to elope. Enough was
gleaned by Ivan to confirm the fact
that the fellow was a merciless scoun­
drel already married, and only after
the money of the rich heiress.
It was by pure circumstance that an
hour later Ivan came upon Miss
Helmsby In her automobile. In bls

lame, but convincing way he told her
of the true character of her fiance.
She believed him, and pale and in
tears returned home, offering him
money for his service, which Ivan re­
fused. and Imploring him to keep the
entire matter secret.
Ivan had forgotten all abbot thia In­
cident as time passed on. It was near­
ing holiday time when he came home
from one of his trips with a bag full
of farm plunder for the little ones
and a great fat white goose. It was
to signalixe their Christmas dinner
and was an object of immense Inter­
est to the expectant children. Little
Levi had set some hay under the fowl,
"to lay an egg on." he put It, and the
spirit of the season Infected all hands.
Then a queer tiling happened. John
Helmsby dropped in several times
during the week. He evinced a new
and mysterious Interest In his poor
tenant Then, Just a day before
Christmas, he brought his daughter
with him. Mr. Helmsby bad been told
■1! about the goose and the expectant
egg, and his daughter had to be shown
the prized fowl by little Levi.
She gave Ivan an intense look as
she departed, and the honest peddler
was mystified Just then. Not later,
however, on Christmas morning, when
Levi burst into the room excitedly
with the Incredible announcement:
“Oh, father, father, the goose has
laid a golden egg!"
And there in Ills hand was the evi­
dence—a gilded papier-mache egg, and
Inside of It was found two &gt;1.000 bills,
Ivan Vidal's reward for saving a
young girl from a lifetime of misery,
and keeping his knowledge a secret.
The poor, honest follow wept for

Always from care and trouble free,

We often find fault with people
when we should extend them our
sympathy Insteajl. It's a hard mat­
ter to find brains in a head if God
Almighty didn’t put any there.
Men who talk in their sleep should
marry women who are hard of hear­
ing. They can't read lips in tho
dark.

A big head often shelters small
ideas.
Hanging Is too good for a certain
newspaper writer in this country. He
asserts that "even with her mouth
filled with hair-pins a woman is apt
to speak twice before she thinks
once.”

There really Is no excuse tor not
marrying now-a-days. It’s about as
easy to get rid ot a wife or husband
as it Is to find one.
In our youth our good old mother
admonished us to "always tell the
truth.” But we dasn’t do It—In this
paper.
Some men strive pitifully to cover
up the fact that they are in deadly
fear of their wives. But they should
not worry. Even an elephant will
tremble in the presence of a mouse.
Family jars are not like those
manufactured in a pottery. It is
too difllcult to keep the lid on.
No man can sit on the fence where
patriotism is concerned. He either
is, or he isn’t.

The examination of Chas. Furnlss

examination opened with Wm. B.
Sweezey representing the people on
behalf of his father, who is unable to
be out. W. S. Powers represented
Mr. Furnlss, and Frank Kirby ot
Jackson appeared‘tn behalf of Quinn.
Mr. Sweezey asked to have the case
against Easterly and Thompson dis­
missed, as charges of a different kind
are tp be brought against them. Mr.
Powers objected to proceeding with
examination of defendants’ on the
ground that they were jointly charg­

Thompson with having committed
the offense. Court overruled objec­

The testimony of Daniel Jackson and

All over Nashville you hear it.
Doan's Kidney Pills are keeping up
the good work. Nashville people are
telling about it—telling of bad backs
made sound again. You can believe
the testimony of your own townspeo­
ple. They tell it tor the beneOt of
you who are suffering. If your back
aches, if you feel lame, sore and mis­
erable, if the kidneys act too fre­
quently, or passages are painful,
scanty and off color, use Doan’s Kid­
ney .Pills, the remedy that has help­
ed so many of your friends and
neighbors. Follow this Nashville
citizen's advice and give Doan’s a
chance to do the same for you.
8. B. Preston, retired, Lents street,
says: “Several years ago I had oc­
casion to use Doan's Kidney Pills
and I found them very satisfactory.
My back was giving me quite a bit
of trouble. It hurt me when I
stooped over to lift anything. I took
Doan's Kidney Pills
and they
straightened me up in good shape. I
am glad to endorse this old reliable
kidney remedy at any time.**

He fldzeted In hlw • hair and the book
slid to the floor.
The picture waa too distressing, and
the Pearihunter turned his face
«way. From where he Mood he had
an almost unobstructed view into the
east room, the girl's room, and before
-he realized It his eyes had strayed
past the curtains. Amazement held
them there a moment In spite of him
The roomaln striking contrast to what
he had seen of the rest of rhe house,
was almost bare of furniture—a car­
petless floor; the rudest of beds; a
broken
chair, and little- else.
_
-He heard her walking across the
floor and turned away half guiltily.
She had her hand upon the curtained
entrance of the west room, and he no­
ticed that It was carpeted, and was
otherwise furnished quite In keeping
with the room In which he stood, cer­
tainly In very decided contrast to the
room upon the east
But he had no time to reflect on all
these things, for the girl reappeared
tn a moment carrying a cello, which
she placed between the old man’s
knees. She put the bow In bis right
band and lifted his left to the strings.
He laid his cheek down upon the In­
strument ; grew quiet. The faltering
bow tried to wake the strings, but In
vain. The old man’s body seemed to
shrink together. His chin dropped
down upon his breast. But the next
instant he sat upright and rigid; his
wide eyes, groping around, found tbe
Pearlhunter, and he started to risegrappled up. strained up, as If by a
power outside himself.
The girl caught the falling bow from
bls hand: drew the cello to her and
deftly twisted the strings In tune.
The Pearlhunter stood amazed at
what followed. The tones of the cel­
lo seemed to rea.-h out Into the quiet
evening, purple with the close of day,
and gather up the drowsy sounds of
wood and stream, and bring them in
and strew them down like falling rose
leaves—the fall of a distant oar; the
lap of water upon cool rocka; the
pulse of a current that rose and fell;
the croon of contented trees under a
serene sunset. He did not know that
what tie heard was Beethoven’s Incom­
parably witching Moonlight Sonata.
The old man's head had drooped for­
ward, his eyes were closed, his face
muffled In his rumpled beard upon his
breast Leaning the cello against the
chair, the girl picked up a limp arm.
laid It about her neck, and led him
away, like a drowsy child, through the
curtained entrance of the west room.
With the departure of the girl the
picture dissolved; the evening world
became a vast emptiness, an emptiness
the silence poured in to fill It caught
the Pearihunter in Its flood; It held
him; overwhelmed him; found out lit­
tle nooks and crannies of his nature
that he never knew were there.
Tbe curtains paced. A soft step
crossed the carpet. The world came
back. A deep breath swelled the cheat

of the Pearlhunter—deep as if it had
been the only breath he had taken
since the song began.
“Next to the thrush song, that was
the most wonderful thing I ever
heard!"
Tbe girl looked up from rearranging
the cushions in the old man’s chair.
“Daddy taught me. He said It was
my gift He had the deepest, soft
vnlce," she went on. more to herself
than to him. "Like the low tones of
the cello, though It always made him
sad to sing. Long ago, when I was a
child, he used to hold me in his arms
and sing to me. He was a wonderful
cellist before—I"
She 4&gt;owed her head over the chair
and the Pearlhunter fancied be saw
tears. But her face was soon up
again, brave and cheerful.
"You could sing.”
.
"Me.!" It vCas about the most start­
line thine she could have said. The
dry splinters of a grin pinched up the
corners of his eyes. "I’d have the
woods to myself If I tried." •
She looked at him. The tiniest sug­
gestion of a frown seemed to be trying
to find a place on her face.
“I know what I ant saying when I
say that. You could slug. Your voice
la M&gt;ft and low nnd strong—like Dad­
dy’s. I didn't notice It till a little hit
ago. but 1 think I felt it all along. I
guess that’s why I trusted yon—be­
enumi your voice is like Daddy’s.”
The Pearihunter was standing
quite close to her. His eyes drank lu
the plump white mystery of her throat;
the bit of ribbon rising nnd falling
upon her bosom. It was an old ribbon,
old and worn. He studied her dress.
It had been many a day since it was
new. He recalled tbe old man’s coat
and his shoes. They were ns old as
hers. He glanced around the cabin;
stole a quick look toward the east
room—her room. The Pearlhunter
was slow—in some things—but some­
how he always managed to arrive in
time.
"Wild Rose!"
Her eyes Jumped to his. She let him
see how much the name pleased her.
"You’ve Just said a mighty big thing
to me. You’ve said you trust me.
That’s* a big thing for a girl to say to
a man. The Almighty alone knows
whether I’ll do to trust Now, don't
think hard of what I’m about to say.
And I wish I knew some nice way to
say It. But I don’t know any way only
Just to say IL Don't you need help­
money, I mean?"
A succession of emotions flitted
across the girl’s face—pleasure at the
; name; bewilderment as he talked on;
—
and at the last, a smile.
The man
' watched the smile. It was a brave
smile, but It had to retreat, beaten
back by a stronger foe. Her lips drew
together; her chin quivers^; she
bowed her head and buried tier face
tn her arms.
What bad he done! Had she mis­
understood him. The Pearlhunter
inwardly cursed his clumsiness. He
found his hard hand stealing toward
her hair. How helpless she was—and
• he bad hurt her. His fingers strayed
over the soft locks and smoothed them.
; It seemed • long time to the Pearl■ hunter before she raised her face. He
। half dreaded to see her eyes; but—a
; desperate glance—no reproach in
&lt; them. Ho had not been misunder­
stood.
I “I don't know how I am to go on."
Her throat and neck and face flamed
[ crimson at the admission. "I can't
leave to go out to service; and all the
furniture that can be spared I have
' sold."
“Only your own." he blurted out,
rather Imprudently, as he reflected aft­
erward. for how was she to know that
he had glanced into her room?
“I didn’t wish Daddy to miss any­
thing^
The unselfishness of her act seemed
not to have entered her mind, but it
was not lost on the Pearlhunter.
"The storekeeper has been so good
to me, and trusted me for so many
things. I’m afraid to think bow much
I owe him. But he is old. and'his wife
has* been 111. It mortifies me to have
to ask him for more credit, but I can’t
let Daddy starve. Money used to come
to us before he got—hurt. But I
found out afterward that It always
came addressed simply to Box 23. Not
even the postmaster knows Daddy’i
name. Neither—do—I !'*
Her voice fell very low. The Pearl­
hunter pitied her, for he knew what
It was like not to know "Daddy’s
name."
"The doctor says," she went on,
“that the bullet broke a piece of skull,
so that fIt presses on the brain. He
thinks at great surgeon he knows might
be able! to raise that little piece of
sknll arid made Daddy well. And that’s 1
i what hurts me worst of all—that I
i can't have It dona."
,• She stopped: turned her head away,
' There rpne into the man’s leveJ eyes

had learned to know.
“Listen!" he said. "You n 1st trust
me. You must let me help you. You
already know the story of the Bine
Moon. Such a find always brines the
pearl buyers. They flock to It- like
vultures to a carcass. They’ll soon
he’hero—maybe tomorrow. I’ll sell the
pearl, and you shall send for that sur­
geon."
Like one waking from a dream to
find the dream come true—she turned
slowly and raised her face to his. The
full significance of his offer, the big
generosity of It, the Immense fact of
ft, escaped her In the first moments.
Only a mere detail of It reached her.
“I—we—couldn’t ever pay you back."
It was on his tongue to say he didn’t
expect to be paid back—that he didn’t
want to be paid back, but a glance at
her somehow made such an answer Im­
possible. The book case gave him an
Inspiration.
“You could let me read these books."
“Why. you could do that anyway.”
She looked-at him In curious sur­
prise. Not knowing the hope that was
slowly waking In her. he misinterpret­
ed the look. He avoided her eyes.
His generosity had overreached his
tact. Such an offer couldn’t be made
to a girl in the same way It could be
made to a man. His eye roved the
room in desperation, ft lighted final­
ly on the cello still leaning against the
old man’s chair.
"You can teach’me slngln' lessons!"
He said It a good deal us a man
might consent to a surgical operation,
with the chances dead against’ him.
“That wouldn’t be worth—money,"
she said. "That would Just be fun. If
—things were so I could."
The Pearihunter picked up hls hat
from the table, stood fumbling it and
thinking Intently. It went against the
grain of him to give up till tbe last
lick was struck. Something she had
said a few minutes before happened
into hls thoughts.
“When your father is well, there’ll
be more money coming to Box 23. He
can pay me back then himself."
He said It slowly—like a man laying
bls Inst card on the table, and the odds
against blin.
But the effect was utterly opposite

to what he had dreaded. Her eyes
sprang to hls face, and there was
something In them he had not seen
there before. He knew tn that in­
stant thnt she had not misunderstood
him. With a freedom from which the
high moment took even the tiniest
semblance of boldness, she stepped to­
ward him and laid her hand on his
arm.
“You’re wonderful I I don’t suppose
anybody else In the world would do
auch a thing for folks like—us—for
strangers, -wforgive me that I didn't
thank you. It was all so marvelous/
But I do. I do. over and over!"
The puzzled misgivings on the windseasoned face of the man melted up
into a (flow smile.
.
"It’s nothing—’’ he said.
That was the best he could do. the
utmost syllable he could muster.
"Nothing! When Daddy Is to be
well, and the good days are coming
back I How can I ever thank you I"
“It’s nothing," be repeated. "I'd just
as soon you”—lie Hesitated; finally
added the word, “folks—had the mon­
ey for a while as to let it stand there

“Yes, but how many would look at it
that way? I’m sure the bank wouldn’t;
nor the doctor; nor anybody—but
you. Except Daddy,” she added. “He
would—when*he was well. He was
like—you."
“Anyhow,” he said, as if continuing
some previous remark—some remark
he had doubtless been turning over in
hls mind, since he had let fall no irord
of it—“the first thing is to sell the
peart"
He stepped toward the open door.
She followed him. With the air of a
man seeking some excuse to Unger, he
turned at the threshold.
“Sure you’re not afraid F

this last one? He knew rhe meaning:
The cabin of Fallen Rock was very
gloomy as the Pearlhunter came down
the bluff, walked around to the front
door and pushed It open. The fire had
long since died In the stove. In the
twilight the Interior of the cabin was
like night. He hastened to light the
candle. The sight of hls mother’s
chair, when the light brought It out of
tbe gloom, oppressed him heavily.
He stepped out of the cabin, think­
ing to sit upon the door step a while.
The moon was not due till midnight,
but the sky was already spiked with
stars; and so blue and deep that It
appeared to have no bottom. A good
eye seemed to be all that was needed
to see clear through.
The bottom grew again In the sky;
the stars came back out of the deep
azure. The man’s eyes opened. It was
the sound of oars that opened &lt;hem.
For the first moment he did not know
that he had. been asleep. A glance at
the east, all a-flare with the close
coming of the moon, convinced him
that he had slept—for hours.
Midnight. What were oars doing on
the Wabash at midnight? The creak­
ing of them, accompanied by the dull
clupp-clupp of the oar locks, drew
nearer. Presently there came the gruff
tones of men, surly, nnd short-spoken.
When even with the house-boat the
rowing censed. and he knew tbs boat
waa being allowed to drift.
“Hello o. up there 1"
It was the hoarse, gruff voice of the
Boss. A day and half a night I The
finding of the Blue Moon had been cel­
ebrated most furiously.
“Hello-ol" he answered.
He heard the Boss swear nnd say to
the others: "ThereI Wbat’d I tell
y"u 1 I knowed he wouldn’t be asleep.”
The hoarse voice, thickened a good
deal by the celebration, boomed across
tbe water again nnd bounded against
the face of the cliff.
“Louie Solomon struck town t’nlght.
He’ll he down In th’ mornln'.”
“Let 'm come.”
“Stick out ter th’ five thousan’."
The Pearlhunter did not answer.
“Be up t’nwrrow, sometime," the
voice boomed out again.
“Come abend.”
The Boss tossed back no further
word.
So Louie Solomon, the smoothest,
’trickiest, shiftiest of them nil, would
be "down In the mornln’." The eyes
of the Pearihunter narrowed. Hls jaws
snapped together. He. turned and re­
entered the cabin. The candle had
burned low. Tbe draft that set In
from tiie open door had guttered It
deep. He blew it out, flung off hls
clothes and rolled Into bed.
“Five tliournnd I” he muttered, droj&gt;plng Into the sleep that comes easy to
the woodsman. “Not even Louie Sol­
omon can beat me If I stick right here.
That’s what I'll do—stick—right here.
Pm not askin’ more, and he shan’t
ba\e it for—less—"
Bo king ns the pulse of the woods
beat normal the sleep of the Peari­
hunter was sound. The hoot of the
owl; the whine of the wildcat; the
howl of the wolves; never disturbed
him. In cabin or house-boat, or out
under the trees, he rould sleep through
It alL But let a false note creep Into
the wild medley and it instantly
reached him. It was hls training, and
could be-counted on.
Some time away In tbe dend night
the false note came—guarded footfalls
outside the cabin, and close to the
wait Without start or stir the Pearl­
hunter’s eyes came open, every sense
at keenest pitch. It must have been
near morning, for the moon stood al­
most straight in the open door. He slid
hls hand down hls side, felt for the
revolver under the edge of hls thigh,
laid It across hls chest, and covered
both hand and revolver with a corner
of the sheet

hnd a very plausible surmise as to the
story of the other, the one with the
knife thrust through It at the threegnbled cabin. But this one—thia last
one?
The man wanted to hide thnt bit of
cloth right there. But why? The Peari­
hunter raked hls brain for the answer.
Why? He must have been Ignorant
that the other was hidden behind the
chink, or why should he have taken
such pains to hide this one? He was
probably Ignorant of the fact that he
had dropped the other one In the cab­
in that night; possibly did not know
where he had lost IL It was even con­
ceivable thnt the loss of It may have
occasioned him no small anxiety. If
he did not know that he had dropped
the other mask in the cabin, he prob­
ably was unaware thnt the Pearihunt­
er knew him. The young man sat still
a long time over that thought
That he could with such apparent
readiness supply himself with another

a near-by rendezvous, undoubtedly
somewhere fh the Flatwoods—a ren­
dezvous. or a confederate. But that
was unlike him—to have a confed­
