It has lately been1 claimed that warts neglected mayr lea^i to malignant growths but this> has not been sustained.

A retirement salary fund law will Improve present conditions and in­ crease the efficiency of the public school system as follows it is con­ tended: 1— It will instantly change the out­ look upon the* life of several thous­ and teachers, by removing the ever­ present nightmare of a penniless and dependent old age, and will thereby immeasurably increase the value of each one as a teacher. The cheer­ ful, contented care-free man or wo­ man Is the one who most success­ fully moulds character and inspires Ideals. 2— It will make for broader cul­ ture and better, health in the teach­ ing force. With fears for the fu­ ture removed, a teacher will feel justified In traveling, in taking a needed rest, in entering into much that will enlarge her sphere of life, add to her stock ot knowledge, and thus increase her usefulness as a teacher. 3— It will attract to the profession of teaching able men and women who now enter other employments. This is a very' cogent reason for making suitable provision for the old age of the employees of any profession or trade. Keep Able Persons In Profession, 4— It will hold in the profession many persons of ability who now leave it for more remunerative em­ ployment in other fields. 5— It will attract teachers—live teachers—from other slates, and many strong teachers will be added to the force, thus ktnmgther.lng the system and raising its efficiency. 6— It will enable Michigan to keep her own strong teachers, who make exceptionally high records. 7— It will enable school boards to honorably retjre teachers who have given their beat years to tbe work. 8——It will render tardy justice to a faithful group of underpaid public i Bi cape in Cutter. .

Munro, IN CHICAGO THIS WEEK Scouring the Market For Bargains Watch this Space For Special Announcement Next Week FRED G. BAKER tary of the Michigan Mutual Tornado. Cyclone A Windstorm Insurance Company at its meeting to be held at Hastings, January 12. 1#16. Our attention has been called to the circular letter of the Rogers Booster Committee. The gist of that letter Is that Mr. Rogers’ manage­ ment of thecompanybasdtaplaoedthe management of the other officers of the company; bis directions for it* control have superseded the author­ ity and directions of the board of di­ rectors. in sublime egotism this self-constituted Booster Committee proclaims that it is due solely to Mr. Rogers' colossal intellect that the company was created and continues to exist, and the Inference is pointed that but for his towering genius the company would shrivel up and decay. The Michigan Mutual Tornado. Cy­ clone & Windstorm Insurance Com­ pany is a big institution. Through the interest and co-operation of ita policy holders, undertheconservative. able and aggressive management ot its directors, by reason of tft,e atten­ tion given to it by all Its- officers, it has achieved success. But It is fair for the Rogers Booster Committee to charge that the directors of this en­ terprise, past and present, are but dummies; that its officers, other than the Secretary, are but stool pigeons; and that it is only Mr. Rogers’ careful and conservative management that has placed the com­ pany where it is today? Why seek to appropriate to the use of the sec­ retary alone all the credit due to all the men who have shaped the affairs and controlled the policies of the company in all the years of ita ex­ istence? Have not the other officers of the company done their duty; have they not given to the company their beet thought and judgment? ’ Has the board of directors been but pup­ pets, guided by the man higher up— the power behind the throne—Mr. Rogers? If eo, isn't it better for the directors to abdicate, the other of­ ficers to resign, and turn the com­ pany over to Mr. Rogers to run in the future according to his own whim, caprice and pleasure? If he is the creator of the company, if he made it, why not let him have it? Why Is it necessary to "fool all the people all the time” by going through the idle form of an election of officers and directors, who. if one believes the circular letter of the Booster Com­ mittee. have no function and no voice, and who never have had any­ thing to do with the conduct of the affairs of the company? Why was It necessary to have on the Rogers Booster Committee the attorney of the company and the of­ ficers and directors of the bank with which he does business, all of whom have a personal financial interest in keeping,Mr. Rogers in office? Have the policy holders and directors of the company forgotten that free poli­ cies have been given to some of the most active in the past it the sup­ port of Mr. Rogers? Wouldn't it look better to the policy holders if the board of directors and other of­ ficers ot the company familiar with the conduct of its affairs were asking to have Mr. Rogers kept in office be­ cause of bis efficiency? At the last election Mr. Rogers' strongest argument was that he de­ sired to realize a creditable ambition tinuous service as secretary of the company. It was freely talked that he would ask no further favors. Now he claims credit because the policy holders kept him in office. And now, as a resalt, the Rogers Booster Com­ mittee claims that he is entitled to appropriate to himself all the credit for all that the company has been and Is now. From the position of servant, this Booster Committee pro­ claims that he is the master. Do you suppose Mr. Rogers* anxi­ ety to continue n the pay-roll would have given birth to the Rogers Boost­ er Committee if it had not been for the salary attached to the office of secretary of the company—if it had not been that his children and nieces were on the pay roll? Would it not be Just as well for the policy holders in the company to have as secretary, a man who would have the active and actual co-operation of the board ot directors, a man willing to say that this Is "our company,” Instead ot contending that this is "my compa­ ny,” a man who would not be a source of constant friction and dis­ sension. a man who would listen to the board of directors and co-oper­ ate with his brother officers, a man who would be content to fill the of­ fice of secretary of the company, and who Is big enough and broad enough to give credit to others where credit is due. Such a man is Albert N. Williams. Mindful of other people’s rights, always honorable, just and fair, with­ out egotism or boasting, he has filled every social and political office which he has held with a single eye to the interest of ail concerned, and never in the boastful spirit that he made the institutions of which he has been an officer.

E. church, it was understood that the losing bide should give a banquet, but on ac­ count of the large number of people who were drawn into the contest in various ways as it developed, it Is impossible to give a free banquet to all who might think themselves en­ titled to participate Therefore it has been decided to put out tickets at the nominal price of 25 cents per plate, these tickets to be sold not later than January 20. The ban­ quet will be given at the home of Mr. and Mrs. F. G. Potter. Friday even­ ing. January 22. at about' 7:30 o’clock Tickets will be on sale at Furniss & Wotring's drug store in Nashville and at W. C. Clark's store at Maple Grove. Remember, no tic­ kets will be sold after January 20. Those selling tickets are to report sales to Mrs. Fred Mayo on the even­ ing of the 20th. Ticket holders must present tickets at tht/ banquet. On the occasion of the banquet, good piano music will be furnished during the evening, and the follpwIng menu has been decided upon: 7 Fruit Mashed potatoes Brown Gravy Chicken Brown am! white bread Pickles Olives Sala 1 Ice cream Cake f Coffee ENTERTAIN.MENT COURSE.

A treat is promised the patrons of the Nashville entertainment course for next Monday evening, when Gil­ bert Atlee Eldredge, the gifted Im­ personator and entertainer, makes his first appearance here. Mr. El­ dredge presents his Impersonations in costume, and his different numbers present a wide range of variety, from the farcical to the sublime. Notice Is given the patrons that these entertainments start promptly at eight o’clock, and that does not mean five minues after eight. This gives plenty of time for the enter­ tainment and yet allows the people to get home at a reasonably early hour. Single admissions for this num­ ber are 26 cents for adults and fif­ teen cents for children. There are plenty of good seats besides those re­ served for the regular ticket-holders of the course. / WOMAN’S LITERARY CLUB. A house full of the members of the W. I,. C. were present at the home of Mrs. Libbie Marshall Tuesday for the Bible day program. Several amend­ ments were presented to be voted on at the annual meeting at Mrs. Julia Marshall's next Tuesday. The program was opened by all singing "There is a Wideness in God’s Mercy.” Old Testament women were to have been discussed by Mrs; Roe. Owing to the Illness of her grandson she was not present, so the topic was treated as a round table, convincing moat of us there was plenty for us to learn about these famous characters. As Mrs. Julia Marshall waa out of town, her topic, “New Testament W’omeu,” was ably handled by Mrs. Shilling. She said to her the most Interesting women were the group who were associated with the Savior from His birth to His crucifixion, resurrection and as­ cension. She threw new light on the history of Mary Magdalene, from whom were cast out devils. Thia Mary was a woman of wealth, re­ finement and virtue, not to be con­ fused with the one condemned for sin. Mrs. Grace Munson gave a most Interesting history of "The Holy Grail," the cup from which Jesus drank at The Last Supper. One dish I fhat has bee?n cherished as-----------(hat one — — ------Is in Genoa. F ___ It is recorded that three nations raided a city in the holy -r land. The spoils were divided Into thirds, first, land; second, treasure and third, thia green cup, supposed­ ly made from a single emerald. Some even thought Christ made it from clay. It was worshipped for ages until captured by Napoleon. Then French scientists declared it was only common glass. It was later returned to Italy. She told the legend of Sir Galahad and his quest for the Holy Grail and describ­ ed the mural decorations depicting scenes from the life of Sir Galahad in his famous search. Altogether Mrs. Munson’s was one of the best papers of the year. Two extra musical selections, a «olo by Mrs. Myrtle Caley “Just for Today,” and a duet by Mrs. Fern Cross and Mrs. Caley “At Morning­ time.” were much enjoyed. FLOUR COMING DOWN. Egg* Gone to Hmaalx South End Breeze Fails to Tell All the News. The South End store is always do­ ing the unexpected. Last week when flour was going up at an awful rate', it was coming down at the South End* store. On account of the drop In flour, there was also a fright­ ful smash in freeh eggs. And not a word of It in the Bre<}ze. Helluvapaper. The way it happened. Charlie was piling a load of flour up on a table. The pile grew so high that Charlie, long as he is. couldn't reach high enough to place the last sack, so he gave it a gentle little toss. It land­ ed on top of the pile, but It was slip­ pery and failed to stick, and slid gracefully over the top of the pile and down on the other side. If eggs had been worth ten cents a dozen, there wouldn't have been an egg in that part of the house, but as they were worth about S5 cents per doz­ en. there was a full basket right in the way. The flour dropped on the edge of the basket. But why * go on? You know the rest Ten dozen lovely eggs all gone to h—all fax In a York minute. As though a lot of big bolls on Charlie's person were not enough trouble for one poor cuss? FARMERS’ INSTITUTE.

There is still a lot of goods left, but the sizes are somewhat broken. You may be able to find what you want and you may not. If you can you can buy it at about half price—-some things a little above half price, some even below half price. Come in and see. Still in stock:- Men’s suits, mostly small sizes, boys’ overcoats, odd pants, flannel shirts, dress shirts, night shirts, sweaters, men’s and boys’ underwear, dress gloves, small sizes in gloves and mittens, neck­ wear, collars, cuffs, hats, caps, mufflers, umbrellas and many other articles of furnishings for men and boys. You will find everything marked in plain figures. Drop in and look around. Some of these goods you may almost make your own price on, as no reason able offer will be refused. Some man can make three or four hundred easy dollars by buying what is left of this stock in a lump. If interested, come and see me. LEN W. FEIGHNER, Trustee 0. G.

President Butterfield of Massa­ chusetts Agricultural College opens his volume on ’’The Country Church and the Rural Problem” with this statement: — “The country church faces a crisis.” A prominent Mich­ igan lecturer on rural problems said on the public platform recently: — "Many country churches are empty and many are worse than empty." These statements suggest rural con­ ditions which need attention. It Is welcome news to learn that the Michigan Agricultural College is go­ ing to hold a conference of rural so­ cial workers with a view of rendering assistance to-the rural pastor. This individual needs just the help which a conference of this kind can give him. He will come In contact with leaders in his work who. out of large experience, can give real assistance. The pastor, must become a leader in his community, and this can be achieved most readily by cooperation with others in the study of rural problems. Detailed Information of this conference is sent out by the College in a special bulletin. “PRETTY CLEVER" HURPR1HE.

Janury 12, being the anniversary of the day he first made his appearance in the “White house", about 29 of his Nashville friends made up a couple of sleigh loads and went over tn help him celebrate. His wife had also invited in some of the Vermontville friends so It sure was some jolly crowd. When all was ready the Master of the house, who was up town, was sent for and upon arriving home and seeing what had taken place, could-say nothing but. “pretty clever, pretty clever” and twist the band on his hat like a small boy speaking his first Sun lay school piece. Everyone knows the ability of Mrs White when it comes to “eats” and this was a birthday feast, (imagine tbe rest). Fred was presented with a handsome rocker tn honor of the occasion. The guests departed at a late hour, taking with them the remembrance of a very pleasant evening and wishing their facet many happy returns of the day. AN AMBITIOUS WORKER.

They will inspect the college, have dinner there, and perhaps be addressed b> one or two of the instructors at tbe Institution. Those who entered the contest this year have had to submit to the Agri­ cultural committee an essay telling of their experience in the growing of corn and likewise a report. In the report they must describe the land used, their success in germinating their seed coni, tell how the ground was prepared for seed, the amount of fertiliser used, when the corn was planted, cultivated and harvested, and the expense In time, labor and money to which they were put. In their essays they tell of many difficulties encountered. In most in­ stances the drought seriously affocted their labors, making amaller the yield per acre secured. But in oth­ er instances, hogs or cattle managed to get Into the fields, disposing of much corn. Boys 12 and 13 or 14 years of age tell of aching backs and arms, of working nights after school, of carrying water in a barrel to the corn plot so as to counteract the ef­ fects ot the drought, and of planting with a hoe “so as to be sure to get just three kernels In a hill.” Two boys hitched "a span of two-legged donkeys to the marker." they say. these “donkeys” being their father and the hired man.

And neither one, unless fur joy, Has ever shed a tear." Facts Worth Knowing—Burns. The first thing of importance in treating a burn is to exclude the air. If the clothing adheres, to the wound remove this first with a little warm water or oil,, taking care not to ex­ pose too large a portion of the wound to the air at one time owing to the intensity of the pain. Keep on cov­ ering the burnt area as you go so as to keep the air away. Never hold the burn to the heat, it is a mistaken idea. An application of collodium Is one ot the best remedies lor slight burns as it forms an air-proof coating over the bum. Any of the oils are valuable, par­ ticularly carron oil, which is equal parts of linseed oil and lime water, in the absence of oils dust the part with starch, flour or talcum powder, or use clay which has either been steriallzed by boiling or else baked and then boiling water added. Mo­ lasses has even been used with splen­ did results. Since severe burns are more dan­ gerous than is popularly supposed not a minute should be lost in calling the doctor but in the meantime fol­ low thq. temporary hints as laid out above. Hats. The hat is a sign post worn on Lhe head to denote the character of the person walking around under it. A dinky little hut with a half-inch brim means there is a pocketful of cigarettes farther down. A big Fe­ dora on a farmer's head is a pretty sure sign of a full grown wallet at the rear of his waistband. Women's hats take a great mauy beautiful birds out ot the world and put a great deal of profanity into IL Kitchen Kinks. After drying salt tor the table, do not fill the salt cellars until the salt is quite cold, otherwise it will harden in a lump. When using gasoline to remove spots, we usually find the spot disap­ pears but a yellow ring remains. This can be avoided by adding a lit­ tle salt to the gasoline before using.

Ever Think of it This Way? When you find that your watch Is losing a minute a day you hasten to have it regulated. If you find that your pulse is los­ ing a beat or two a minute, tbe fact does not worry half as much as does the loss of a second or two by your watch. The watch must g^ at once for re­ pair, but your pulse—well, you think that that will take care of itself. No matter about that. The chances are you don’t really know whether your pulse is beating or not, but you will compare your watch with the chronometer at least once a week. But you never com­ pare your pulse with anything. Why? Because you don't care as much about your heart as you do about your watch. Your watch cost you perhaps 850.00, bnt your heart cost you nothing, and yon value It accord­ ingly. Household Hints.

Its owner be­ longed to a family famous in the an­ nals of Allahabad and all the surround­ ing district. They had been landed proprietors for many years and were one of the first to establish the manu­ facture of indigo in the northern part of India. . The holder ot the property was, in the eighties, practically an outlaw. He was shunned by his own family for his many lawless acts, and he lived in that great weird house surrounded by natives of every caste and condi­ tion of life, and also by a few whites who had deserted from the army and sought the hospitality of a man who was hated and feared. The man had received all the ad­ vantages of a generous education aud of kinship with a well-known family. In his earlier days he had acquitted himself well in the dark time of the mutiny, having formed one of that small band of gentlemen that had kept the road open between Hattrass and Agra. His troubles began with a lawsuit and he'had a lawsuit to the day of hls death. He Jiad been driven from one possession to another till all that was left him was the “Zillah.” When the present king of England visited Allahabad, tbe owner Ot "The Zillah" sent word to the authorities that he intended to present a petition in person to the prince, and would saj things that would compel bis royal highness to take notice ot him. and then, perhaps, he would have justice meted ouL The man entered Allahabad with the following of the most disreputable men in his village and drove to where the prince was lodged. An army offi­ cer who was a friend of the family begged him to desist and prevailed on him to withdraw as hls presence with that following was little short of trea­ son. •'Then give the German this paper,” ho said as he flung his petition to tbe officer and withdrew, swearing ven­ geance at everybody. From that day he declared he owed no allegiance to England, and swore he would not pay another cent in taxes. It was collected with tbe aid of tbe armed police. Like men of his kind, brought up without any ideas of business, he was ever borrowing large*sums al ruinous rates of interest, and whenever he was in need of ready cash he would put a mortgage on some theretofore unmortgaged piece of property. Tbe man who lent him the money was a native, and in the course of one of the trials the singular statement was elicited from this native that he vowed to ruin the whi^ man if it took his entire fortune. He worked to this end for many years, and artfully led the unsuspecting victim into many a financial trap. "A man like you," said the native to him one day. "is often In need of money, ready money. Why do you not lome to your slave instead of go­ ing to the bunks.” "You are no friend of mine." an­ swered tbe whits man. "It is your fault that you are not a friend. Do not I owe my life to your father?" "Ydu do." was the reply, "but if you will remember it was I who wanted to blow you from a gun and 1 would have killed you with my own hands only 1 knew the temper of my father, and be would have himself delivered me over to the government after promising you your safety." "Let the past be the past,” said tbe native. “I have come to you with of­ fer of help for the sake of thy father and you begin to upbraid me.' "Can I take help at the bands ot a murderer of my people?” , “My hands are dean,” sadd the na­ tive humbly, "and the offer comes from my heart." * . At last the man listened and turned to the native for aid. More than once he had been warned that he was go­ ing to his own undoing and that he would know that a native never for­ gets and never forgives, and that he was being more completely ruined than even he or hls friends could real­ ise. “I want the money and tbe men that can ruin me are not yet born," was all the answer he made. Then began a series of foreclosures. One house went after another. Tbe law was Inexorable and the white man paid the penalty for his folly. There was no respite for him. It was war with a vengeance and the legal war was driving the man to acts of outlawry.

E. BASSETT BRAINS IN BUSINESS This is a day of brains and they command a premium in every walk of life. Tills is conspicuously true in merchantile affairs. The merchant who would be suc­ cessful must ‘use his brains, an 1 the use . of brains prompts him to the judicious use of advertising space in hls local newspaper. If he expects his establishment to become a premanvot fixture in the town he is equally desirous of leaving with his customers a feeling of satis­ faction and the inclination to re­ turn. Therein lies the secret of his success, but to accomplish this he must first consider three salient points. First, his goods must be of the standard required by the people of his community. Second, they must be reasonable in price. Third, they must be brought.to the attention of tbe buying public. It is a simple matter to buy the goods and fix the price, but keeping them in the public eye Is the prob­ lem. It is the stumbling block upon which the hopes of many merchants are wrecked. The merchant who makes the most conspicuous success la the one who brings his wares to the atten­ tion of tbe public through the medi­ um of well written advertising matter. Whenever you find a merchant who advertises judiciously but per­ sistently in his local paper you will find a successful and growing busi­ ness, a business founded upon solid principles, and one which commands the respect of the community. It is the brains of the merchant piloting him safely through the In­ tricate perils of commercial life. Advertising is the product of the brain, and Is the greatest of all aids to business success and eminence. The well written advertisement of seasonable goods will always bring results, for it must be borne in mind that the borer, as well as the seller, is possessed of brains, and those brains will be utilised to his own ad­ vantage. This is essentially" an advertising age. and the business man who per­ sistently declines to recognise the requirements of the public will in time have no patrons to affront by his indifference to their desires. The people of this community have the ad reading habit. It is as much u part of their daily life as are the ordinary pursuits of the day. It Is simply a matter of brains forging to the front, for while the merchant employs hls brains in the selling of hls goods, the buyer utilises his brains in the disbursing of his funds to his own best ad van t- And the advertisement—fresh, and crisp, and to the point—leads the buyer direct to the seller, directs his foot steps to the spot where he may find that which be seeks with­ out delay and the consequent loss ot lime in "looking around.’' neighboring editor the earth. �By KtNNETT HARRIS. tbe toast doubt out-and-out scale- Compare the Round Oak Chief Point by With Others Point Round Oak Chief Ranges most desire­ able and the least expensive.

Baker has decided to increase his ever growing business by giving away Profit Sharing Coupons which will mature on May 31, 1915, and under certain conditions as nam­ ed below are worth collecting. Beginning January 30, we will issue Profit Sharing Certifi­ cates. The person who will collect and deposit with me the most Certificates or Coupons will be entitled to A FREE TRIP TO CALIFORNIA To the expositions, expenses paid for 10 daysj also to the distribution of $20 in gold! and 46 one dollar merchandise due bills good for anything in the store to that amount. HThn n/nn ic nc fallnine' F°r every dollar’s worth of goods bought of me up to and including May 31, 1915, I will issue you a coupon which has spaces J /if piU.ll IS US IUUUUJS. to punch, to the amount of one dollar, which, after being punched, make it a Profit Sharing Certificate. I also buy rags, rubber, metals and paper. When ypu sell me $1.00 worth of junk I will also punch these coupons, when they will also become Profit Sharing Certificates, or both buying and selling will be punched on one Certificate for any one person or family who can trade to the amount of $1.00 on each Coupon. Mrs. A can not trade on Mrs. B’s Coupon, but you can have all the Coupons you can trade out on demand. sThe Profit for collecting the greatest amount of certificates is as follows! One round trip ticket to California, taking in the Panam^-^Pacific Exposition at San Diego, also the Panama International Exposition at San Francisco, California. Railroad ticket will be good for stop-overs anywhere enroute, at Denver, Colorado; Salt Lake City, Utah; Los Angeles and many other places. Your eating expenses will be paid both ways; also 10 days’ expenses at $3.00 a day. For the second greatest amount deposited, a $10.00 gold piece. For the next two greatest amounts, $5.00 in gold to each. For the next forty-six largest amounts deposited, a $1.00 due bill good for $1.00 worth of merchandise at my store: anything you want. Get busy! It costs you time only to try and induce those that do not care to compete to trade at my store and give you their certificates, or you may have some certificates and there may be some who will pay you a small price for them as they are valuable. I WOULD SUGGEST that BOYS get busy and see how many persons they can get to give them their certificates, simply asking them to trade a dollar’s worth at Fred C. Baker’s, where we sell as good goods as can be bought, for less money. If you can hustle and get the most certificates it will be the trip of your life next July when school is out. Also would say that if two boys of the age of 12 or under get the largest amount of certificates, I will accompany them on the trip if I am wanted, and will guarantee to take the best care possible of the kids. I might be some help as I have been in California fifteen times. We will furnish all the coupons and advertising matter free. ALSO TAKE NOTICE—The clerks and myself are disqualified from taking any part in this collection of certificates in any way,"shape or manner. We can not solicit, buy, sell or give away any certificates, or in any way try to treat one different than another in the collection of certificates. Nashville, Mich., and guarantee the value of every article sold. If not satisfactory, Money Refunded or goods exchanged. We will deliver by parcel past, prepaid, anything you wish, outside of Nashville and within the 1st zone. Doni pass this up, but stop and consider what you may get or give to some other person by simply trading at Fred G. Baker’s, Nashville’s Cut Rate Store, and saving these Profit Sharing Certificates. At the end of each month we will publish a list of the contestants and the amount of certificates collected at that time. We will deposit in the bank for every dollar’s worth sold until May 31, 1915, five cents and this amount is set apart to pay all the costs of the trip, etc. We have decided to sell all kinds of merchandise, including groceries, at prices beyond competition and lower than ever before.

HIGHEST PRICES PAID FOR PRODUCE The Quality Store ROTHHAAR & SON ASSYRIA FARMERS* CLUB. | The Assyria Farmers’ club was royally entertained at the improve-1 ment club hall iu Bellevue on Satur- I day. January 23. by Mr. and Mrs.; J. L. Hoyt. President Roy Moore called the meeting to order and the club Joined in singing, "Blessed As-; surance." Chaplain Mrs. Cargo read tbe 23rd psalm. In the absence of the secretary no report was given.1 New member of the program com-1 mittee is Mrs. Henry Thompson,’ and on the refreshment committee Mrs., Robert Smith. Suggestion was made that ail car-j Ing to contribute for the flower* pur­ chased for Mrs. A. D. Briggs should ( hand same to Mr*. Nina Tasker. The club then adjourned for din-| nor. About 150 people were served, which included a number of tbe busi­ ness men and their wives of Bellevue, whom we were very glad to welcome, and judging from the genial atmos­ phere they were equally glad to be with us. The afternoon session began by "America”, sang by the club. This was followed by an address, "Com­ munity Live Stock Improvements", by W. E. J. Edwards of Lansing, which was greatly enjoyed. He gave many good ideas in regard to fer­ tilizing. feeding of stock, and select­ ing stock for feeding and breeding and also fattening of hogs; also the advantage of getting them on tbe market as quickly as possible. Bernice Vedder very sweetly sang "Just a Dream, of Mother". She did not respond to the hearty encore. Recitation, "Whistling in Heaven" was nicely rendered by Ethel Law­ rence and was greatly enjoyed. Dr. L. E. Haight favored the club with a vocal solo. "Macushla" and responded to the encore. Another pleasing number on the program was the piano duet by Mrs. H. A. Johnson and Hyla Cook. They gave a second'-number. President Moore then asked for remarks from some of tbe business men. Supt. A. D. Jones of tbe Belle­ vue schools. A. J. Hager, Rev. Coons. H. M. Allen gave short talks which were enjoyed by all. Mrs. Zeno Lyon by request sang "Down Where the Sweet Magnolias Bloom", and Mabel Moore recited "A House or a Home.” The club was then dismissed by Rev. Coors. The February club will be enter­ tained at the Base Line church and a temperance program will be given.

It was strange that the thought of Inez should occur so frequently to John- Phayre's mind as he sat fishing above Glouston weir. Perhaps it was that the miniature rapids above which ho fished, heedless of the warnings of the guides and hotel man reminded him a little of the huge Shoshone rap­ ids, where he and Inex uspd to meet. Inec was the daughter of a sheep farmer, and John bad worked for the man . for two years before lhe unex­ pected death of a rich old uncle left him a fortune. Phayre was forty years oltf and he had put a barren youth behind him. He had once thought of marrying Inez. But Inez was wholly uneducated, a daughter of the western plains. They loved each other. Had John been ten years younger be would have plunged headlong into matrimony. But middle age brings caution. And so, realizing the improbability that such a mar­ riage would bring happiness, John had said good-by to Inez and her father and gone East There had been a look in Inez’ eyes, a hurt, pained, hopeless look—he re­ membered it ofteq nowadays as be sat fishing on the littlo Adirondack^ lake near the summer hotel. It was unfor­ tunate that he should be thinking of Inez when he was engaged to marry Dorothy Baird. He had met the Bairds in New York, and Mr. and Mrs. Baird had suggested that they meet at the hotel that summer. There seemed to be a good deal in common between Dorothy and John. Ebe was a merry, jolly girl, just such a one as he would have fallen In love with, twenty years ear­ lier, when life stretched, fair and un­ stained, before him. So they became engaged. John picked up his fishing rod and. putting on his bat. stepped out of the boat and made hts way back to-the hotel. It was. evening and the dark­ ness was rushing over the mountain tops. John approached the hotel qul- went to bis lawyer and told him thaf be wished to settle a sum of money upon his fiancee. “I suppose It la not necessary to le-. her know before the marriage takes place," be said. T would rather It had the aspect of a—surprise." "Certainly not, Mr. Phayre.” an­ swered the old lawyer. "How much is the sum you were thinking of settling od Miss Baird?” "One hundred thousand dollars,” Unswered John. “A large sum. Mr. Phayre." suggest­ ed the lawyer, rubbiug his band* thoughtfully. “It will etill leave me a hundred thousand of my own,” John Phayre replied. "Well, Mr. Phayre, I don't want to dissuade you, but—well, often a mai acts impulsively and regrets it afterwartL” “1 shall not regret it,** answered John. "Please draw up tho settlement in such a way as to make it absolutely irrevocable in case I change my mind or—die.” The lawyer drew up the settlements and John left him. He went to hla bank and drew out a hundred thou­ sand dollars in notes. This he mailed to himself at a post office in the West. Nobody at Shoshone Station knew juiytbtag of John Phayfe's eastern connections. Then John went back to the hoteL “Are you going fishing again, John?” inquired Dorothy affectionately, put­ ting ber arms round him. "I wish you wouldn't fish above the weir, John. You know a guide was killed there last fall, when his bo^t drifted ovw? the rapids.4 "Oh, I can take care of myself. Dor othy," answered John, smiling. T wish you cared for fishing. Dorothy. After wo ore married I shall Initials you into the joys of fly fishing." It was something of an effort to John to play the game. And the real­ ization that the\g|rl's affection for him was a simulated oho made it doubly \ hard. But at last he was gone, and. half an hour later, be sat in his boat above the weir, casting his line. He fished for about two hours, thinking hard. As every fly flsharmaa knows the sport is conducive to men­ tal exercise. He had fully made up hla mind when the two hours were ended and five large trout lay in the boat He would go back to Bhoshona Station. The thought of Ines was curiously insistent with him that day. Igno­ rant? Unlettered? At least she was the type of woman who would always be true to her chosen mate. And he must give Dorothy to tbe man she loved. Poor little Dorothy I He was able to think of her now without a shadow of regret He had loved her. but jho discovery of her love for Ar­ nold had shown him that his heart lay westward, where he had once thought It lay. The faces of Inez and Dorothy rose up before his mental eye, as In a picture. He scanned them carefully. He saw himself and Dorothy, he grow­ ing old, she approaching the mature beauty of middle life, discontented, trying to fight down her dissatisfac­ tion with life—then Inez, and th* placid current of their life together on the great plains. He threw his hat Into the boat and put on a cup which he had brought in his pocket. He put his fishing’ tackU into the boat also. Then, with hts knife, he out the rope that tied ths craft to the tree trunk. Aiterward. holding the severed end in his hands, he frayed the strands, eo that the rope should seem to have snapped rather than to have been cut Having done this, be released it and let it glide down the stream, and stood watching IL It drifted slowly, gathering impetus Then the river bore it faster upon its breast, and It spun no more, but head­ ed straight forward toward the treach­ erous rapids beneath him. Faster and faster; now it was going full speed toward tbe rocks. How like his lllel How like John's life! It shot forward as swiftly as an arrow, stopped for a moment, spun broadside on, and then, poising Itself upon the brink, It leaped down among the foamy boulders to tbe placid lake bblow. John stood and looked after it Th« irrevocable act was done. There was no going back now. And he diA not want to go back. He had set Dorothy free. After a decent Interval of mourning she would marry Arnold. The "hundred thousand dol­ lars that hp had settled upon her would bo quite aecure. It would af­ ford the lovers a comfortable income and leave something over for old Baird. John Phayre smiled contentedly as he sat upon the banks and let th? warm sun stream on bls face. An hour later he rose to his feet and made his way across country five miles, to where the Transcontinental halted to take on water. As he reached the place the train was already appear tag in the distance. It slowed up, and John sprang aboard. Four days later John Phayre de­ scended at Shoshone Station. A butkboard, driven by a woman, was waft­ ing there. John looked into the lace of Inez. "Have you come back to stay, John?" she whispered. Tor ever and aver, Ines." snawswd John, kissing her.

BASSETT PREPARE NOW FOB DEAR EGGS NEXT FALL. If the farmer wishes to benefit by tbe high prices that eggs are certain to bring next fall and winter, he should begin to get ready for them at once, say the poultry specialists in the department. The way to have eggs late In the year is to hatch pal­ lets early. It is the early hatches from which tbe early pullets are de­ rived that are the largest money makers for the poultry producer. Tbe early hatched cockerels can be mark­ eted in almost any market Ln Ameri­ ca when they attain a weight of 3-4 of a pound to a pound and a half each, which they should reach at about 6 to 10 weeks of age, respect­ ively at a greater profit to the produc­ er than at any other time of their lives. The early hatched pullets, if properly grown, should begin to lay in the fall at the time when eggs are scarse and high in price. A Few Fact* to Remember. Pullots must be well matured be­ fore they v»HI lay many eggs. Pullot* that start to lay in the fall before cold weather sets in will, as a rule, lay all winter. It is tbe early hatched pullets that produce eggs in the fall and early winter, when price* are high. February, March, and April are tne months to do your hatching to order to secure early batched pul­ lets. Yearling and 2-year-old hens do not lay many eggs in the fall, as they are molting at that time, and th* feed they consume goes not only to keep up the energy and life ot th* birds but also to put on or grow a new coat of feathers. In properly matured pullets all surplus energy beyond that needed to meet the requirements of the body is available for the production of eggs. Write the Secretary of Agriculture at Washington, D.

There was the old house belonging to a brother of the lawyer, and given to them rent free, but that was little to an extravagant mother, and her two spoiled and indolent daughters. "It la dreadful!" mourned Mrs. Rhodes, after the funeral. "We have nothing left to us but debts. We shall have to dispense with the maid"—and the selfish, pampered woman all but covered with reproach the dead hus^ band, who had given the best years ot his life to sustain in luxury an un­ grateful family. "And cousin Honor is coming to see us!” grumbled Eva, the eldest of the two daughters. Any one of them was able to work, but they never thought of that. In tbe midst of their predica­ ment Rolfe Daniels called one evening to see Mrs. Rhodes. "I do not wish to allude to your great loss to distress you," he said, "but my sense of duty impels me to seek this interview. Mr. Rhodes was my best friend. I owe everything to him.” The widow looked as if she expected pay from this candid avowal. “Your husband took me into his of­ fice employ when I was hdmeless," went on the young man. "But for his death, in a year more through his kindly tuition 1 would be eligible for admission to the bar. I was very close to him. He worried greatly at the condition of his finances. He implored me to see that his family did not suf­ fer. Mrs. Rhodes. I >m ready so far as I am able to contribute to the sup­ port of this family until you can see your way to more permanent condi­ tions." "Daniels owes your father a lot of money and Is honest enough to pay it back," was the coarse, untruthful way In which Mrs. Rhodes explained the circumstances to her daughters. "I presume you expect to continue my husband's business?** Mrs. Rhodes intimated to Daniels - the following day. “I cannot do that, madam." replied Daniels, "for I have not qualified for IL I fear I shall have to give up that Bernard Lennon and mother were I guests of Mrs. Gertrude Maurer and Bernard and Leo Maurer Monday ant Tuesday. .

G. C. Deane Co "And Cousin Honor See Us!1 i ambition. Again, most of Mr. Rhodes’ business was from clients who were his close friends and which I could scarcely hope to secure.” ’’Then—” "I shall seek work in the town, and if you will give me a room at the house here it will mimlmize my own personal expenses, and I can help ID the work necessary about the place.” So this arrangement was made. It was a vast sacrifice for Rolfe to give up the hope of becoming a lawyer. With gratitude, however, he remem­ bered the kindness of Mr. Rhodes. With loyalty he resolved to be a friend and a support to the family left In such distressed circumstances. It did not take Rolfe long to discern that the mother and her daughters were poor samples of womanhood. They sat around in what was left of their old-time finery, were wasteful in preparing the meals and bickered as to who should do the dishes. They were rather distant with Rolfe, as if he were an inferior, but they could not help but realise his devotion and self-sacrifice. Every Saturday night he handed over to Mrs. Rhodes the money to pay the household expenses. Within a month the family had ac­ cepted these unusual services from a comparative stranger, a* though he were a son or brother. Rolfe kept the lot neat and attractive looking, he sawed and split ail the wood, he did a dozen necessary errands evenings. Whenever tbe girls needed anything particularly he tried to provide it. Without her knowing it, be devoted three whole nights to doing some extra copying work to give Eva the money to procure some neckwear gewgaws she fancied. Then the cousin, M!„ Honor Bright. came. The first moment he‘set eyes on her. Rolfe Daniels fell tn love with her. To all of them, however, the via- • itor was apparently cold and out of place. She did not tell them, but her heart had been chilled over a.wretch who broke their engagement and went off and married another. Honor was disillusioned, but it wcuid take time for the deep wound to heal. Her distant manner, her superb grace and dignity stilled the budding lover In her silent admirer. Rolfe felt that she was far from him as were the stars. Night after night, however,, in a little memorandum book he wrote down his Inner thoughts. They ex­ pressed not the languishing love-sick suitor, or the desperate ravings of one seeking the unattainable. Rather, it was the tender adoration of a true man who was glad that he had known a perfect woman. ■ Honor remained permanently with the family. She pitied their condition, turned into the family fund the few hundred dollars she possessed and did most of the work about the house. She was striving to forget her old heart, misery. She resented the Indif­ ference of the family towards Rolfe, whose sterling worth she appreciated. She strove to be kind to him, but it was not yet in her nature to show her real sympathy amid the sting to pride* of her first disappointment. One day at the factory an emery wheel exploded and some of tbe frag­ ments went into Rolfe’s eyes. His sight was not gone, but the surgeon told Rolfe be mut do no clerical work ROTHHAAR & SON NOTED FOR SELLING GOOD MERCHANDISE RIGHT We aim to make this store your shopping head­ quarters and are naming some very attractive prices on ready-to-wear for this week’s shopping. ■ Our mot­ to is “to sell everything in this department regardless of its cost rather than carry them over to the next season." 50 LADIES’ AND MISSES' CLOAKS All new, this year’s coats, in all colors, fancy cape and plain coats, in fact every coat in stock included, nave been placed on sale in three lots.

The Hanson store was the only one tn town calling itself a department ■tore.

And nobody was in the ■tore; Hanson had managed to prove bi* alibi by going to Rochester. "O, pshaw! Maybe you’ll be only too glad to compromise." suggested Catesby. "Come, make me an offer." "One-quarter million.” aald Hanson. "Your lowest offer?" “You bet It is. What d’you take me for?" "All right. I've heard yours, and now you can hear mine. Not one penny, but we won't prosecute if you drop your claim, because ice is a deli­ cate commodity to keep, even when it's cold-storaged. You see, we couldn’t very well-bring it into court" "Eh?" stammered Hanson, begin­ ning to tremble. "Come here!" said Catesby. and led Hanson and the agent to the cool snowdrift. He bent down, scraped away the snow, and pulled up a huge and neatly burnished circular disk of Ice. "I guess it formed on top of a tank or somewhere, and that gave our friend his Idea," said Catesby. "Catch on. Mr. Brown?" "Why. It’s—it’s like a burning­ glass,” cried the agent. "That’s what it is, and pretty well done. I guess you were !u the optical business once, weren’t you. Mr. Han­ son ?" "Why, he was the first optician In town,” the agent cried. "That was before he built this store.” "Exactly.” answered Catesby. "What would a Jury say to that. 1 wonder? However, there's one more thing to take Into consideration, and that's the focal length. We've got to prove that at three o’clock in tbe afternoon the sun Is in a direct line with the top of that shed, where the glass lens was fixed, and those split stones at the back of the store, where the fire be­ gan. Furthermore, as I was saying, that is the correct focal length to concentrate the rays.

Rtertu* Matter of Increased Pass­ enger R*tw< With Re|>mestMtir* Gathering of Citteen*. Human Element in Banking The parlor of the Naihrllle Club was well filled Thursday afternoon to meet a delegation of the officials of the Michigan Central railroad,; who came here for the purpose of' discussing the question of the pro­ posed raise in railroad passenger rates. The delegation consisted of L. W. Landman. General Passenger Agent, Detroit: D. J. Hackett, Di­ vision Superintendent. Jackson, and A. C. Good son. Commercial Agent.• Grand Rapids. .Mr. Landman did most of the1 talking for the delegation, and did it well, telling the gathering frank­ ly and plainly that under present con­ ditions the railroads were none of them making any money, not even a decent rate of interest on the val­ uation placed on the railroad prop­ erty by the state, let alone the capi­ talization of the roads; that the pas­ senger end of the business was fall­ ing away behind so that it was not meeting its just share of expenses and was thus making the freight end pay more than its share of the bur­ den of management, at a time when the freight department had more than it could do to pay its own way. He also called the attention of the meeting to the (act that since the enactment of the two-cent legisla­ tion the expenses of the railroads had been Increased by leaps and bounds. Conductors, engineers, firemen, brakemen, yardmen, fa fact all em­ ployes. had demanded and received enormous increases in salaries: in­ stallation of the block system and the "safety first" movement, demand­ ed by the public, had cost enormous sums; the 8-hour law. which greatly increases the number of employes, creates another heavy increase in ex­ pense; the construction of all-steel cars, insisted upon by the public and provided for by law will cost a large sum of money. The public demands good train service, better coaches, additional safeguards and everything of that kind, with little thought of the enormous expense Involved. There is no question but that all these things presented by Mr. Land­ man are true. The railroad's ex­ penses must certainly be much larg­ er than they were at the time the two-cent legislation was enacted. The people of Michigan are fair. They are willing the railroads should make a decent rate of interest on their In­ vestment. We demand the service the railroads give us and we are willing to pay what i( is worth. What the people are not willing to do is t • pay increased passenger and freight rates if the railroads are making more than a reasonable amount of money. The people don't want to be "high-financed.” And If the railroads are able to come to the people with clean hands and an honest accounting and show what they claim to be true, very few citizens will find any fafilt with their senators and representatives if they vote for a reasonable raise in the passenger rates. Nobody wants to make war on “big business" because it is big business. Big business is all rigb^ unless it becomes predatory: then it is time to make "jittle busi­ ness" of It. We need and must have the railroads. We should be. and we are. willing to pay the right price for it. when we know what the right price is. These sentiments were expressed by several of those present following Mr. Landman’s talk, and Mr. Land­ * man and the other members of“ the party thanked those present for the party thanked those present for the spirit of fairness manifested. THER CONSIDERATIONS MAY bring customers to a bank, but a | is the human element which holds them there. Banking service is of the greatest value only when it is rendered in a spirit of helpfulness, courtesy and personal consideration and at all times.

Phil Dahlhouser's driving horse essayed a new stunt Saturday after­ noon. but failed to make a success of It. He tried to climb the stair­ way leading to Herb. Wai rath's rooms, over the harness shop, but fell, and before he could get anoth­ er start Marshal Caley had him fa charge for disorderly conduct. Phil's son Charlie had his best girl out for a sleighride, when one of the thill bolts broke, letting the thille drop on the horse’s heels. The horse naturally got away from it, incidently spilling the occupants of the cutter, and then indulged in a riot­ ous sprint through the streets of the village. After completely wrecking the cutter, he tried to turn into the alley between Walrath’a harness shop and Caley’a blacksmith shop, but be couldn't make the turn at the rate of speed be was indulging in and hit the stairway instead of the alley. He was somewhat bruised up. but not seriously injured. AUCTION HALE. In order to make a division of their property.

A deal was consumated Monday evening whereby the well-known el­ evator firm of Townsend Brothers is dissolve'd, Ray C. Townsend becom­ ing sole proprietor of the business. In the deal Earl B. Townsend, pres­ ent efficient register of deeds for Barry county, comes into full own­ ership of the splendid farm formerly owned by the firm, in North Castle­ ton. Since E. B. was elected register of deeds, his brother Ray has had full charge of the elevator business, and has also had the principal man­ agement of the farm, which has giv­ en him really more than one man could look after and do full justice to. He will now be able to give his full time and attention to the ele-. vator business, and he expects to be able to do more and better business than ever before. Ray is a hustler, and his many friends will be glad to see him make even more of a suc­ cess of the business than he has In the past. We suppose when bls time as reg­ ister of deeds expires E.

Scientists try to tell us that the coldest inhabited spot on the globe is Werchojensk. Seberia, but they never were at a white house reception. Weddings. Some weddings are a miracle, some are calamities, and some are merely a habit people acquire. A marriage license can teach a man more biology in six months than he could learn at college In six years. Most people marry for mohey; some marry to gain social prominence, and once in a while we hear of an old *‘ fashion couple marrying simply cause they love each other. Antidotes for Poisons. The first thing to do in most cases is to induce vomiting, if possible. Give an emetic: a tablespoonful of powdered mustard in a tumbler of warm water Is good. Warm water and salt is also efficacious. For poisoning from opium, laud­ anum. and morphine—An emetic should be followed by strong coffee, or the white of an egg. Keep the pa­ tient walking for two or three hours. For poisoning from arsenic, cor­ rosive sublimate, verdigris, blue vitrol, and vegetables kept in copper vessels—Give an emetic and the white of an egg, sweet oil and milk. Strychnine—First give an emetic, and then large dose of bromide of so­ dium (60 grains to solution). Re­ peat every hour until three or four doses have been taken. Toadstool poisoning—Give emetics promptly, then castor oil and stimu­ lants. Apply beat. Poison Ivy or oak—Apply hot wat­ er or spirits of sweet nitre to the poisoned surface. Another is per­ oxide of hydrogen. Other remedies are baking soda and dry starch, and sweet olive oil taken Internally. Note:—See this column next week for an article on: “First aid to the injured.” Can Yon Beat It? Once there was a boy who went to a circus and watching his chance, managed to crawl under the tent.

Remarkable Streets The highest street In the world is Main Street, in Denver; the richest is Fifth Avenue, to New York city; the widest is Market Street, Philadelphia, and the shortest Is the Rue Ble, to Paris. The dirtiest street is that of Tchanksti, to Nankin; the cleanest is the Via Castile, in Seville, Spain; the most aristocratic one Is Governor Place, to London; the most beauti­ ful in the Ave. des Champa Elysees, Paris.

Unfortunately a remark was made at the closing meeting that gave fhe impression that one of our members was not in favor of con­ tinuing the meetings because con­ verts would be likely to Join else­ where. This is a mistake. There is no member of tbe Baptist church that would not be glhd for meetings to be continued indefinitely so long as there should be a prospect of sav­ ing souls to unite with sny church. Peter DeYoung came Saturday to take charge of the work. He is a promising young- man ft and preaches good sermons. He has a room for the present at tbe Brooks boarding bouse.

For an engage­ ment present?" inquired Margaret Lisle, looking with astonished eyes at ’the gilt timepiece which her sweet­ heart, Harry Vernon, removed from Its wrappings. "Well, you see, dear. It was an idea of my own, "Hairy explained. "It is called a Billiken clock, and it is sup­ posed to make lovers tme to each oth­ er for a whole year. All you have to do Is to set it upon your table, wind tt every day, and let It run. You see, it tells the months as well as the hours. Well, that’s alL Let’s trust *Td rather trust myself to our love, dearest,” whispered Margaret - "Be­ sides, you know we shall ba quite an old married couple before the year is ended.” Harry kissed her, and with that the Billiken clock was forgotten for the time. The next morning it was tick­ ing away merrily upon Margaret’s mantel. And sometimes the thought of Its pretendedly miraculous powers returned to ‘her, but only for a time. The approaching marriage drove away all other ideas. They were to have been married in three months, but the sweetest love ^nay come to its undoing. There had been little quarrels, such os are not unknown among lovers; but it was a revelation to Margaret when Harry told her she never loved him. "There, take back your ring!" she sobbed, flinging It upon the floor *’l am only glad of one thing—that I was warned in time." "Warned?" questioned Harry, icily. ."So you have been discussing me with other men, have you. Margaret?" "Brute!" sobbed Margaret, stamping out of the room. All the while the Billiken clock was ticking away upon the mantel. But NOTICE! We are well prepared to do your horseshoeing and all oth« er work in our line promptly and satisfactorily.

She never read them now. She had become a su­ premely contented woman. But she knew that she would never walk to the altar as a bride. Nor would anything on earth have impelled her to. All this while the Billiken clock had been ticking merrily away. Margaret regarded it with the most supreme indifference. Harry Vernon was In Paris at the same time as Margaret. He had nev­ er forgotten her. Her beautiful face, with its crown of aureate hair, was ever before him. He knew that her resolution was indomitable, and he had never tried to break it. But he felt that he must share her life, tread in the places where she bad trodden, see the same scenes. He had stood on the deck of the very ship on which she had sailed for Europe, and be, too, had looked at the water and felt the same regret, wistful and tender, in his own heart. And, like Margaret, he had thought not at all of the Billiken clock, which was to make them true. Back in America, as the year drew toward its end, be did think suddenly of the Billiken clock. But tbe tragedy of tbe thought overwhelmed him, for— He had forgotten what day the year came to an end! He had forgotten exactly when be had set the Billiken clock! And one day, precisely at the end of the 12 months, when the hand had told the months, hours, minutes, and seconds—the Billiken clock went off! Looking Out Into the Streets. neither was thinking of the watchful little gnome within, ready to inter­ vene at the appointed moment Two months later Margaret sailed for Europe. She knew now that all the Important changes in her life bad come; thence forward It would flow evenly along in its present channels. She still loved Harry. That she knew She would always love him. But they would never be anything more to each other than they were. Tbe man whom she had idealized had proved to be a very human being after all. And the angel that Harry Vernon had depicted in his imagina­ tion was no angel, but just a woman. He had given her his heart, and he knew that nobody could ever win his love again. So long as he jived he must love Margaret Margaret, leaning over the side of the vessel, idly watched the wake of foam. Her thoughts were with Harry. But she sighed a little for the loss of her dreams. She knew that the im­ aginings of a young girl, the girlish aspirations, could never be fulfilled in life. The disillusionment was tender and gentle, but—well, .Margaret knew. The scales had fallen from her eyes; that was all. She went down into her cabin. Up­ on a little shelf the Billiken clock Wus ticking. She did not pay the slightest attention to IL La•.er, In Paris, she stood in her ho­ tel room, looking out into the streets. She watched the busy throngs, and still the thought of Harry held her solved that her state of life should never change. She loved Harry, and must always lure him, and the Idea of giving her love to any other man waa afi impossibility. But—buj— Upon the mantel in the furnished room the Billiken clock was ticking gaily. Margaret had forgotten all about the imprisoned imp Inside. She wound it daily, as she might have wound any other clock. But she did not give a thought to it more than she bad bestowed upon the old alarm clock in h»r bedroom at home. Finally, back in her home in Amer­ ica, she stood musing upon the end of Hbr romance.

Petrograd. Feb. 8—The latest re­ ports from the front in Russian Poland bring some brief details at the Impor­ tant Russian victory onVjhe Bzura river. Czar Nicholas nod Kaiser Wilhelm are with their armies in Poland, en­ couraging their troops. While the Germans, with three-quar­ ters of their forces along the Bzura continued to hammer at the Russian line, the Russians seized this oppor­ tunity to throw tbelr forces across the Bzura at Kamion. near the junction ot the Bzura * ith tbe Vistula, and cap­ tured the German fortified position at his place At the same time they rove the Germans across the Bzura t Dakhova which is close to Socharzeu The loss of life is appalling. On tbe upper Rawka river the Russians were successful in capturing a good many German outposts Rout Armored Motors. Near Bollmow tbe Germans were unrelenting in their attack and tha Russians countered with equal feroc­ ity. The German forces repeatedly made use of armored motor cars on which machme guns and quick-firers had been set up. A hail of shrapnel from the Russian lines, however, forced them to retire From Sklernlewlce southward to Radom and Kielce there have been scattering artillery engagements. At Sbernlke the Russians, anticipa­ ting an attack, destroyed tbe bridge over the Nida and shelled the enemy from the opposite bank, forcing him to retire.

Banking service is of the greatest value only when it is rendered in a spirit of helpfulness, courtesy and personal consideration and at all times. The customer has a right to expect this, and the growth of a bank is dependent upon it The proven loyalty of its clientele is evidence that courteous treat­ ment of its customers has had much to do with this bank’s success.

They’ll git hyar against sundown.” Samson leaped violently forward. With one hand he roughly seized his cousin's shoulder and wheeled him about. . "Shet up!” he commanded. "What d----- n fool stuff hev ye been tellin’ Sally?” For an Instant the two clansmen Etood fronting each other. Samson's face was set and wrathful.

"Nobody hain't got no license," re­ torted the younger man In the quiet of cold anger, "ter tell Sally nothin’ thet’ll fret her." "She air bound ter know hit all pretty soon.

The party halted for a moment’s rest, nnd, ae the bottle wan pnssed, the man from’ Lexington, who had brought the dogs and stayed to conduct the chase, put' a question: "What do you call this creek?” “Hit’s Misery.” . “Does anybody live on Misery that —er—that you might suspect?” The Hollmans laughed. "This creek is settled with Souths thicker'n hops." The Lexington man looked up. He knew what the name of South meant to a Hollman. "Is there any special South, who might have a particular grudge?” "The Souths don’t need no parti *lar grudge, but thar’s young Samson South. He’s a wildcat” “He lives this way?” "These dogs air a-makin’ a bee-line fer his bouse.*’ Jim Hollman was speaking. Then he added: “I've done been told that Samson denies doin’ the shootin', an* claims he kin prove an alibi.” , The Lexington man lighted bls pipe, and poured a drink of red whisky into a flask cup. "He'd be apt to say that” he com­ mented, "These dogs haven’t any prejudice in the matter. I’ll stake my life on their telling the truth.” An hour later, the group halted again. The master of bounds mopped his forehead. "Are we still going toward Samson South's house?" he Inquired. "We’re about a quarter from hit now, an’ we baln't never varied from the straight road.” "Will they be apt to give us trouble?" Jim Hollman smiled. "I hain’t never heered of no South ■ubmittin' ter arreet by a Hollman.” The trailers examined their fire­ arms, nnd loosened their bolster-flaps. The dogs w ent forward at a trot. CHAPTER V.

"What air ye a-reachln’ atter, Tam'rack?” he inquired, hie lips twist­ ing in amusement. "Thet’a my business." "Well, git hit out—or git out yeself, afore I throws ye offen the clift." Sally showed no symptoms of alarm. Her confidence in her hero was abso­ lute. The boy lifted his hand, and pointed off down the path. Slowly and with incoherent muttering, Spicer took himself away. Then only did Sally rise. She came over, and laid a hand on Samson's shoulder. In her blue eyes, the tears were welling. "Samson," she whispered, "ef they're atter ye, come ter my house. I kin bide ye out. Why didn't ye tell me Jesse Jurvey'd done been shot?" "Hit tain-'t nothin' ter tret about, Sally," he assured her. He epoke awkwardly, for he had been trained tc regard emotion as unmanly. Tnor hain't no danger." She gazed searcbingly into his eyes, and then, with a »hort sob, threw her arms around him, and buried her face on his shoulder. "Ef anything happens ter ye, Sam­ son," ehe said, brokenly, "hit’ll jest kill me. I couldn't live wlthouten ye, Samson. I jest couldn't do hitl” The boy took her In Ms arms, and pressed her close. His eyes were gaz­ ing off over her bent head, and his lips twitched. He drew his features into a scowl, because that was the only ex­ pression with which he could safe­ guard bis feelings. His voice was husky. "I reckon, Sally,” he said, "I couldn’t Mve wlthouten you, neither.” The party of men who .had started at morning from Jesse Purdy's store had spent a hard day. The roads fol­ lowed creek-beds, crossing and Irecrossing waterways in a fashion that gave the bloodhounds a hundred baf­ fling difficulties.

From time to time that day, neigh­ bors had ridden up to Spicer South's stile, and drawn rein for gossip. These men brought bulletins as to the prog­ ress of the hounds, and near sundown, aa a postscript to their information, a volley of gunshot aiguals sounded from a mountain top.

In Georgetown, O., a few weeks fore election, young men of from fif­ teen to twenty years of age organ­ ized a Junior Business Men’s club and announced themselves as a “bunch of winners.” They made a thorough canvass of the town and solicited every voter, saying to the drinking classes, "You wanted saloons In your day; you’ve had them: we boys don’t want them in our midst; won’t you help give us what we want?" The result was that Georgetown went "dry" three to one. This campaign has attracted much attention in the .state and the "wets’’ feel they have nothing to hope from the new gen­ eration about to step into the electorate. Colin T.

The Kalkaskans are fostering a movement for replant­ ing the large districts tn Kalkaska county which at present are barren of everything except old tree stumps and they have asked the college to assist made no provision for furnishing seed­ lings and funds for such work, the college has been compelled to throw cold water on Kalkaska’s hopes for restoring its forests. “In such a case as this, we can only act in an ad­ visory capacity," declared Prof. F. H. Sanford of the forestry department “But what we really need Is state aid for this work. Michigan should have a law exempting forest plantings from taxation until tbe timber Is ready for cutting, and it should farther provide some way of furnishing seedlings for such work. Here at the college we can only give advice, while the public domain commission Is compelled to confine its efforts to forest work oa state lands."

"When them folks gets hyar, Uncle Spicer, I’m a-goln* ter be a-settln* right out thar in front I’m plumb willin’ ter invite ’em In." Then, the two men turned toward the house. Already the other clansmen had dis­ appeared noiselessly through tbe door or around the angles of the walls. Fifteen minutes later, Lescott, stand­ ing at the fence, saw a strange caval­ cade round the bend of the road. Sev­ eral travel-stained men were leading mules, an'd holding two tawny and im­ patient dogs in leash. In their num­ ber, the artist recognized his host of two nights ago. They halted at a distance, and in followed an unspoken command In his companion's eyes. Lescott Bank down behind a rock, cloaked with glistening rhododendron leafage, where Bnmson had already crouched and become im­ movable and noiseless. They had been there only a short time when they saw another figure slipping qui­ etly from tree to tree below them. For a time the mountain boy watched the figure and the painter saw bis lipa draw in a straight line and his eyes narrow with a glint of tense hate. Yet, a moment later, with a nod to follow, the boy unexpectedly rose into view and his features were absolutely expressionless. "MornIn*. Jim." he called. The slinking stranger whirled with a start and an instinctive motion as though to bring his rifle to his shoul­ der. But, seeing Samson's peaceable manner, he smiled and his own de­ meanor became friendly. "Mornin', Samson.” "Kinder stranger in this country, haln't ye, Jim?" drawled the boy who lived there, and the question brought a sullen flush to the other’s cheek bones. "Jest a-passin* through,” he vouch­ safed. "I reckon ye'd find the wagon road more handy,” suggested Samson. "Some folks might 'spicion ye fer stealin* long through the timber.” The skulking traveled decided to lie plausibly. He laughed mendaciously. "That's the reason, Samson. I was kinder skeered ter go through this country in the open.” Samson met his eye steadily and said slowly: "I reckon, Jim, hit mought be half es risky fer ye ter walk upstandin* along Misery es ter go a-crouchin’.

Samson South reached up and stroked a tawny head, and the bloodhound paused a moment to wag its tail in friendship, before It jumped down to the road, and trotted gingerly onward. "I'm obliged to you, sir,” said the man from the Bluegrass, with a voice of immense relief. The moment of suspense seemed past, and, In the relief of tbe averted clash, the master of hounds forgot that his dogs stood branded as false trailers.

The note' explains that Germany's proposed action is rendered necessary by Great Britain's policy of attempt­ ing to cut off the food supply for the German civil population by a method never recognized in international law. England's course tn ordering mer­ chantmen! to fly eutral flags and equipping them with artillery, with or­ ders to destroy submarines, the Ger­ man reply contends, renders nugatory the right of search. Germany holds that she cannot abandon that r.'ght under tho stress which England has put upon her. Since Germany must compel tbe nations with which she is at war to return to the recognized principles of international law and restore the free­ dom of tbe aeasj ’she argues that the stand she baa U»ken Is necessary.

Great Britain Is. with the toleration, of neutral governments, not only aupplied with such goods as are not contraband, but with goods whlc are regarded by Great Britain, if aent to Germany, as abso'ute contraband.

Is being carfled on between United States firms .nd Germany’s enemies. The German government is resolved to suppress the Importation of war materials to Great Britain and her allies, and she takes ft for granted that neutral gov«rnmenta. which so far have taken no steps against traf­ ficking in arms with Germany's en­ emies. will not oppose forcible sup­ pression by Germany of thia trade. Germany Is ready to deliberate with tbe United States concerning any measure which might secure the safety of legitimate shipping ot neu­ trals in the war zone ALLIES HOLD TRENCHES Report Many Gains, Including Recap­ ture of Norroy ana Meuse Height.

The evening was most heartily enjoyed by participants and specta­ tors. and those who were fined for wearing "starched shirts,” etc., paid gladly for the privilege of appearing before Judge Quick.

The young people were more than pleased with the splendid success of the banquet and it will undoubtedly be made an annual event. SEVERS ARTERY IN WRIST.

He was dressing a pedestal base, when the small chis­ el he was. using In some manner slip­ ped and entered his fore arm. glanc­ ing from the Inner bone and com­ pletely severing the ulnar artery. The wound bled profusely, but his fellow workmen stopped the loss *of blood with a hastily improvised tourniquet, and he was removed' to Dr. Morris' office.

A special program has been arranged. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Quick enter­ tained a party of their friepds last evening, it being the 10th anniversa­ ry of their marriage. A fine threecourse 6 o'clock dinner was served and Mr. and Mrs. Quick were pre­ sented with a beautiful cut glass dish in remerfibrance of the occasion. Past Masters’ night of the F. & A.

Smith, an old pioneer resi­ dent of Nashville, died very sudden­ ly yesterday noon at his home just south of the village while eating din­ ner. from a stroke of apoplexy. Dr. J. I. Baker was summoned, hut life had fled long before the doctor could arrive. The deceased leaves four sons and two daughters, besides several grandchildren and -near rela­ tives to mourn their loss. Things are going along in good shape at the new creamery. The elevator is in position, new machin­ ery is being Installed, and by next week the company will be in shape to make formal announcement of the date on which they will start doing business. They will have one of the best-equipped plants in the state and there is no reason why it should not be one of the most successful, as we believe it will be. In response to an invitation from the Oddfellow lodge at Jackson, the local degree team, accompanied by several brothers, were guests of that lodge Monday evening and confer­ red the work of the first degree. Their splendid work was highly ap­ preciated and won hearty words of praise from all present. The visit­ ing brothers were treated to an oy­ ster supper, and were royally enter­ tained until the early morning train. Women do not like to see shabby clothing on men: neither do they like to see their home look dingy and shabby. You will need to paint your house this spring, and there is no doubt that the very best paint you can use for the work is Masury’s fa­ mous paints, sold in this communi­ ty for many years without losing a friend. They have been the stand­ ard of excellence for three-quartern of a century, and are better every year. Pratt.—Advt. Mr. and Mrs. L. W. Feighner were at Litchfield Monday, visiting the former’s brother and other relatives and friends. They found L. C. Feigh­ ner. the editor’s brother, much im­ proved since an operation at the Nichols hospital at Battle Creek last week for the removal of a large quantity of fluid from the pleural cavity. He goes back* again this week for another similar ordeal, and the physicians give hopes that be will soon have a complete recovery. The applications for the new Wol­ verine Winstorm insurance compa­ ny are being sent out to agents, and as soon as one hundred of them arefiled, representing insurance of not less than 1100.000, a meeting of the members will be called, directors and officers elected, by-laws adopted, and a formal organization perfected, after which the company is author­ ized to issue policies. Solicitors for the company are meeting with much encouragement and we believe the new company is destined to be with­ in a comparatively short time one of the most substantial companies in the state. The Dollman Pickle Co. is mak­ ing a thorough canvass among our farmers, trying to secure sufficient acreage to make them safe in estab­ lishing a salting station here. We know of many places in the state where salting stations have been es­ tablished, and all of them seem to stay, which looks as though the farmers found it a profitable busi­ ness. .We believe it will pay our farmers to listen to the arguments in favor of planting an acre or two of cucumbers for the new salting sta­ tion. If there is good money in it for the farmer, why should we not have the industry here? Mr. Dolfcman Informs us that several of the high school students bavs already spoken to him and asked him to get places for them to pick cucumbers during the summer, so that there will be no trouble for the farmers near the village getting all the pick­ ers they desire. Certainly it will not be very much trouble to try the business to the extent of an acre or so. and there is every reason to Il­ li* re that h will develop into a pau’ing industry. �looking for ; European war. i But it must not be—if mortal (man and honorable means can pre­ vent.. • England seems determined to nrday, March 8. 1800. starve out Germany, even to .the de­ day, .March 5. 1875. n ire Fencing—-all styles. priving of women and children of Wire gates and the Can’t Sag gates.

Did you ever stop to think what the approximate running expense of a creamery is? In order to make any kind of a start at all, here are some figures, and they are low rather than high. In order to cover the territory as it should be, it will take six men and teams at say $3.00 per day, or $108.00 per week ; buttermaker, $20.00 per week; secretary and office girl, $25.00 per week ; tubs, liners and other supplies, $25.00 per week; coal, oil and ice, $20.00 per week; taxes and in­ surance, $10.00 per week. Then comes your freight on your butter to market, which will run close to one-half cent per pound, depending where you send it of course. Then the commission man has got to have his share out of it yet. These figures are based on a run of about 3500 lbs. fat. This amount of fat will give you about 700 lbs. over run to pay the above expenses with. Figuring that you get on an average of 28c per pound for this, it will bring you $196.00, or $12.00 less than the above estimated expenses. Now can you see where more creameries will benefit the DAIRYMAN in the least? The running expense of every creamery in the country is paid for out of the DAIRYMAN’S pocket. Now if Barry county had three creameries instead of six, these three creameries could and would pay at least five cents more per pound butter fat than they do now. DO YOU NEED MORE CREAMERIES? If it was not for the large amount of business we do, we could do better by selling out and putting our money out at interest and working by the month. All we want is a fair rate of interest on money invested and a living salary. You want the same, and if you stay with us we will show you just as big a profit from your dairy as your neighbor Jones that has stock in the small Co-operative plant.

It makes no difference what you want, your money will get you a mighty close price on that article now. We expect to make a little profit, for that is the reason we are in the merchantile business. But the profit will be so exceedingly small you simply cannot afford to pass these offerings by. It is a certainty you cannot do better anywhere else, no matter where you go or from whom you buy.

CONTROLS HUNDRED ROADS Interstate Commerce Commission Un­ able to Give Exact Amount of Cash Which May Have Been Expended In Political and Publicity Work. Washington. Feb 27.—The inter­ state commerce commission sent to the senate its report on the Investlgotlon of the finances, rates and practices of the Louisville A Nashville and al­ lied railroads It charged tile Louis­ ville A Nashville with acquiring cons petiug lines and with carrying on for years at a cost of millions of. dollars an elaborate political and publicity campaign to eliminate competition and influence public opinion. For Further L. A N. Quiz. In the report on the Louisville A Nashville, further inquiry, and if pos­ sible, inspection of the railread's cor­ respondence, was said to be necessary. The report was written before the Su­ preme court banded down its opinion bolding that the commission was with­ out power to force the company to sub­ mit its correspondence as well as its records and books scrutiny. Qualifies One Charge. The comni'ssion qualifies its declara­ tion that the Louisville A Nashville has willfully restrained competition by pointing out that tn some instances its enerinofl were directed to meet the competition of other large systems, and passes over the question whether in all instances the course pursued was contrary to jviblic interest The recital of N»e alleged political activities of the roads concerned is accompanied by tittle comment The commission announces Its inability to set forth all the money which the car­ riers may have expended in political and publicity work, but the Items its Investigators discovered, which it has placed in the report under the bead of political contributions, run into the millions In connection with the Tennessee Railroad association, formed by car­ riers In 1SS4 to combat adverse legtsla’ion In that state, the report Is more . specific tn its allegations "1 be various pay nietits made on aoCOUMt of ’he Tennessee Railroad aa। soclation ... bi xashville.

Controls 100 Roads. The Louisrille A Nashville, chiefly. since 1880. according to the report, has acquired controlling interest io more than one hundred railroad companlea or properties, one of the obvious pur­ poses ot which has been to restrain competition The report says the 116.000.00$ shown In the cost of road accounts of the Louisville A Nashville does not represent actual construction costa.

QJMBERIANDS /£, CHARLES NEVILLE BUCIC WITH ILLUSTRATIONS OF SCENES IN THE PLAY Le*cott whistled and then his face lighted into contentment “Today, Samson,” he announced, “Lescott, South and Company get busy.” It was the first time he had seen Samson smile, and, although the ex­ pression was one of sheer delight, inherent somberness loaned it a touch of th* wistful. . When, an hour later, the two set out, th* mountain boy carried the par­ aphernalia and the old man standing at the door watched thdm off with a half-quizzical, half-disapproving glance. Aa the boy, with remarkable «ptitude, learned how to adjust the easel and arrange the paraphernalia, Lescott sat drinking In through thirsty eyes the stretch of landscape he bad deter­ mined to'paint Then, while he painted, the boy held the palette, his eyes riveted on the canvas, which wes growing from a blank to a mirror of vistas—and the boy's pupils became deeply hungry. The day of painting was followed by others like it. The disabling of Lescott's left hana made the constant companionship of the boy a matter that needed no explanation or apology, though not a matter of approval to his uncle. Another week had passed without the reappearance of Tamarack Spicer. One afternoon Lescott and Samson were alone on a cliff-protected shelf, and the painter had just blocked in with umber and neutral tint the crude sketch of his next picture. The two men had lost an hour buddled under a canopy beneath the cannonading of a sudden storm. They had silently watched titanic battalions >f thunder clouds riding the skies In rusty puffs of gale and raking the tarth with lightning and hail and water. "My God!" exclaimed the mountain boy abruptly. "I'd give anything ef I could paint that." Lescott rose smilingly from his seat before the easel and surrendered his palette and sheaf of brushes. "Try it,” he invited. For a moment Sameon stood hesi­ tant and overcome with diffidence; then, with set lips, he took his place and experimentally fitted his fingers about the brush, as he had seen Les­ cott do. He asked no advice He merely gazed for a while, and then. I. O. O. F. Nashville Lodge. No. 38, I. O. O. F.

Samson, even though he was hopelessly daubing, and knew It, was sincere, and the painter at his elbow caught his breath and looked on with the absorption of a prophet, who, listening to childish prattle, yet recog­ nizes the gift of prophecy. "Thet's the way hit looks ter m*,’’ the boy said, simply. "That's the way it Is,’’ commended his critic. For a while more Samson worked at the nearer bill*, then he rose. “I'm done," he said, "hain't a-goln’ ter fool with them thar trees an’ things. I don’t know nothing erbout thet I can’t paint leaves an’ twigs an’ blrdsnests. What I like is moun­ tings an* skies an* aech-Uke thing*.** Lescott looked at the .daub before him. A less trained eye would hav* seen only tbe daub, Just aa a poor judge of horseflesh might see only awkward joints and long legs in a weanling colt, though it be bred in the purple. “Samson,” he Bald, earnestly, “that's all there ta to art. It’s the power to feel the poetry of color. The rest can be taught. The genius must work, of fflOTOORAPHS . course—work, work, work, and stlu work, but the gift is the power ot seeing true—and, by God, boy, you hav© It. You’ve got what many men have struggled, a lifetime for, and failed. I'd like to have you study with jne. I’d like to be your discoverer. Look here.” Tbe painter sat down, and speedily went to work, He painted out noth­ ing. He simply toned, and, with pre­ cisely the right touch here and there, softened the crudeness, laid stress on the contrast, melted tbe harshness, and, when ho rose, he had built, upon the rough cornerstone of Samson's laying, a picture. "That proves It,” he said. “I had only to finish. I didn’t have much to undo. Boy, you’re wasting yourself. Come with me, and let me make you. We all pretend there is no such thing, in these days, as sheer genius; but, deep down, we know that, unless there is. there can be no such thing as true art There is genius and you have it” Enthusiasm was again sweeping him into'an unintended outburst. The boy stood silent Across bis countenance swept a conflict of emo­ tions. He looked away, as if taking counsel with the hills. "It's what I’m a-hontn’ fer," he ad­ mitted at last "Hit's what I'd give half my life fer. ... I mout sell my land, an' raise the money. . . . I reckon hit would take passels of money, wouldn’t hit?" He paused, and his eyes fell on the rifle leaning against the tree. His lips tightened in sudden Truce-Bustin', Murderin’ Bully." remembrance. He went over ana picked up the gun, and, as he did so, he shook his bead. "No," he stolidly declared; “every man to his own tools. This here's mine.” Yet, when they were again out sketching, the temptation to play with brushee once more seized him, and he took his place before the easel. Neither he nor Lescott noticed a man who crept down through the timber, and for a time watched them. The man’s face wore a surly, contemptuous grin, and shortly it withdrew. But, an hour later, while the boy was still working industriously and the artist was lying on his back, with a pipe between his teeth, and his half­ closed eyes gazing up contentedly through the green of - overhead branches, their peace wae broken by a guffaw of derisive laughter. They looked up, to find at their backs a semi­ circle of scoffing humanity. Lescott's impulse was to laugh, for only the comedy of the situation at the mo­ ment struck him. A stage director, setting a comedy scene with that most ancient of Jests, the gawking of boobs at some new sight, could hardly have improved on thie tableau. At the front stood Tamarack Spicer, the returned wanderer. His lean wrist was stretched out of a ragged sleeve all too short, *nd his tattered "Jimmy” was shoved back over a face all a-grin. His eyes were blood-shot with recent drinking, but his manner was in exaggerated and cumbersome imitation of a rural ma*ter of ceremonies. At bls hack were the raw-boned men and women and' children of the hills, to the number of a dozen. * "Ladies and gentle men," announced Tamarack Spicer, in a hiccoughing voice, "swing yo’ partners an’ saahay forward. See the only son of the late Henry South engaged in his mar-velous an’ heretofore undiscovered occu­ pation of doin’ fancy work. Ladies and gentle-men, after thia here show Is concluded, keep your seats for the con­ cert in the main tent This here fa­ mous performer will favor ye with a little exhibition of plain an* fancy sock-darnin’.’* After the first surprise, Samson had turned his back on the group. He was mixing paint at the time and be pro­ ceeded to experiment with a fleeting cloud effect, which would not outlast the moment. He finished Chat, and, reaching for the palette-knife, scraped his fingers and wiped them on his rose. . Without a word he turned. Tama­ rack had begun his harangue afresh. The -boy tossed back-the tong lock from bls forehead, and then, with an • unexpectedly swift movement, crouched and leaped. His right fist shot forward to Tamarack Spicer's chattering Ups, aud they abruptly ceased to chatter as the teeth were driven into their flesh. Spicer's head snapped back, aud he staggered against the onlookers, where he stood rocking on his unsteady leg*. His hand swept instinctively to the shirt-concealed holster, bdt, before It had connected, both of Samson's fists were playing a terrific tattoo on bls face. The in­ glorious master of the show dropped, and lay grogglly trying to rise. The laughter died as suddenly as Tamarack's speech. Sameon stepped back again, and searched tbe faces of the group for any lingering sign of mirth or criticism. There was none. Every countenance was sober and ex­ pressionless. but the boy felt a weight of unuttered disapproval, and he glared defiance. One of the older onlookers spoke up reproachfully. "Samson, ye hadn't hardly ought ter a-done that He was Jest a funnln' with ye.” "Git him up on his feet. I’ve got somethin’ ter say ter him.” The boy's voice was dangerously quiet. It was his first word.

"Ye runned away, an' ye runned in tbe water so them dawgs couldn't trail ye—ye done hit because ye shot them shoots at Jesse Purvy from the laurel—because ye're a truce­ bustin', murderin' bully thet shoots off his face, an' is skeered to fight." Sam­ son paused for breath, and- went on with regained calmness. “I've knowed all along ye was the man. an’ I've kept quiet because ye're my kin. If ye're got anything else ter say. say hit. But. ef I ever ketches yer talkin’ about me, or talkin' ter Sally, I'm a-goln' ter take ye by tbe s'toJ of tbe neck, an' drag ye plumb into Hixon, an’ stick ye ia the jailhouse.

Gribbin (Conducted by the National Woman’s Christian Temperance Union.) liquor And health. Important evidence with regard to liquor" and tbe public health was brought'before the committee on the regulation of tbe liquor traffic in th* District of Columbia by Prof. Irving Fiaher of Yale university. Professor Fisher showed— • That the lowering of the death rat* in London has been exactly parallel to the lowered consumption of liquor in that city. That the lessening ot liquor con­ sumption in Sweden has been fol­ lowed by a remarkable lowering ot its already low death fhte. That alcohol, even in moderate quantity, actually lessens efficiency, mental and physical,. That alcohol greatly increases lb* susceptibility to disease. That alcohol is an important caus* of Insanity. That alcohol lessens the average length of life, as shown by the re­ ports of insurance companies and friendly societies. That alcohol Increases poverty. These are the findings of cold "* science, not the testimony of antb ulcohol enthusiasts. DRINK STATISTICS. Figures BfhwQng _ ___ an Increase since 1904 of three gallons per capita in the nation's consumption of alcoholio drinks need a footnote. While the average consumption for 1913 was 22.68, the average in 1907 and again in 1911 was 22.79. This gives the Prohibitionists a fair argu­ ment for the success of their labors in at least preventing an increase. What Is more, the actual consumers of alcohol are estimated to be about 25.5 per cent of the total population, with an average of 89 gallons each. Of this 25.5 per cent it would be Inter­ esting to know what proportion do th* heavy drinking. If hard drinkers drink more but grow fewer, while the number of tbos* who drink little or nothing keeps fair­ ly steady, totals and averages need not cause much worry to temperance workers.—New York World. A SOBER NAVY. “No drinking In the navy” Is an or­ der everywhere respected, says Miss Ellen Stone, formerly of European Turkey, whose capture and ransom at great cost some years ngo is still vividly remembered. "Tbe naval of­ ficer is a splendid type of manhood," she continues. ‘To him an order Is an order. Americans now need never fear to see on shore a Jackie or ma­ rine from an American battleship in an intoxicated condition, which brings disgrace to the country whose uniform he wears. With shame and sorrow I have seen men from the bat­ tleships of other nations, in the streets of Salonikl, jeered at by Turks, Jews and others of that an­ cient city. Wonder of wonders that the ocean should go ‘dry!’” EVEN THE PUGILISTS. Joe Shugrue. the popular Jersey City pugilist, is a total abstainer. The sporting editor of the Chicago Tribune says of him: "To be banqueted and lauded by high city officials has not fallen to the lot of any New York boxer, but Joe holds this distinction. . . . Shugrue is not only a teeto­ taler but frowns upon the use of liquor by the young men who are proud of his acquaintance.” t BETTERMENT OF HUMANITY. "Every movement - for the better­ ment of humanity," says Mr. John Cunneen, the labor leader, “has been fought by people who said it would throw somebody out of work. It was so when oil came to displace candles, gas to supplant candles, and electricity in place of gas. For every man out of work by voting the saloons out, the saloons, if they stay, win put ten out of work." . QUITE A DIFFERENCE. Eight miners in a West Virginia coal mine, and all of them drinkers, worked under the same conditions during the wet month of June and the dry month of August, conditions beln* the same' both months except as to the drink.

Furniss & Wotring The Ttexall Store official -figures, as shown by the re­ port of the board of county canvas­ sera, give Appleton 405, George E. Garbutt 302, and C. G. Maywood 203. On the Democratic ticket E. J. Edger was nominated without opposition/ Mr. Appleton's victory is a nota­ ble one in view of the fact that some very peculiar campaign stories were well circulated about the county dur­ ing the last few days of the- cam­ paign, when it was too late to re­ fute them. It Is perhaps needless to say that like most campaign eleventh hour tales, there was no truth in them, although there is no doubt they had more or less of an ef­ fect: They are pretty certain to have an effect in the election cam­ paign. however, and it will be to help Mr. Appleton. rather than to hurt his chances for election. There is no question of his qualiflcations tqr the position. He is a thorough school man, who has held positions peculiarly fitting, him for the position of county school com­ missioner. He has been actively en­ gaged in school work all of hls life, is active, energetic and vigorous, is Intensely interested in making school work count for all possible In men­ tal and physical training, and With a large family of boys of his own growing up Is naturally a student of conditions and of progress. We expect to see him elected by a substantial majority. President McLaughlin , of the Farmers’ Co-Operative Creamery as­ sociation showed The News man through the new plant of the cream­ ery company this week, and thor­ oughly convinced us that the hew plant will be strictly first-class in every respect, from the ground np. In the first place, all of the floors are of concrete, sufficiently Sloping to give all water a chance to go to the eewer by gravity, and the cement runs up all sides of the room, so that all trouble of rotting side walls or studding will be avoided, and this is important, for in nearly every creamery this sort of a condition will be found. The commodious office'is located In the southwest comer of the main building, and is well light­ ed. neatly ceiled, and has a private toilet room. The office is to be equipped with roll-top desk and oth­ er necessary office fixtures, and will be a neat and tidy place, in the main room of the creamery the ma­ chinery has all been set. including a latest model chum of 1200 pounds capacity, two of the latest cream ripeners, each with a capacity of 300 gallons, and a 50-gallon starter can, one of the latest improvements to assist in making the highest grade REPUBLICANS "SLAM.' of butter.

MICH. “DAIRYMEN For the week ending March 13th, the top New York butter market was 29 l-2c. WE PAID 29c. Could you ask for more? It takes experience in selling as well as in the making of butter to get such prices as that. We make butter of quality, and from our long experience in the business are able to pick our buyers; therefore we are able to pay these high prices to you. The market is on the downward trend now, and within the next few weeks it will reach the summer basis; so don’t compare our price of today with the check you receive today for cream you sent to the creamery two weeks ago. Look back and see what pur price was at the time you sent your cream. Just make a fair comparison is all wc ask. Yours for top notch prices and a square deal.

The Legislative Investigation which has been In progress since the railroads made their request to the Legislature fot an Increase Id passenger fares has served to clear up misconceptions which existed regarding th* •tatus of railroads In their relations to the State and to bring about a rational understanding of the needs of tbe railroads as common carriers and servants of the people. An encouraging sign Is that the old cry of "Politics" has tjeen dropped rtnd the members of the present legislature are sbdwing a commendable spirit in dealing with the subject mutter as an economic factor which vitally Toncerna the welfare of every industry In the State. Heretofore it na» been the policy to regard the railroads either as political ogres or as inexhaustible depositories from which taxes might be withdrawn without limit, but the ■>howihg made by the various railroads before the Joint Committee of the Senate and House, hacked by the findings of the State Railroad Commission, nas made a most sobering effect even upon men who wanted to be considered -ndlcals. , The result has been a united effort to get together and take inventory ot the real situation, which has produced some startling facts not the least of which Is that not a railroad in Michigan has paid a dividend out of Its earnings since the present two-cent passengei fare law was enacted In 1907, and that unless relief is granted, a number of the railroads will noi.be able to pay their taxes It Is a business axiom that when the railroad* are buying, the country Is prosperous and the fact that the railroads have not been purchasing, but have been forced to curtail their Improvements, and betterments, has been an object lesson to the members ot tbe Legislature that they have been called upon to deal with the largest single business conducted in the State and upon which fully fifty thousand employes are dependent for thetr support. How vitally every one is Interested In the railroads was shown by tbe questions asked What sources have the railroads for revenue? Tbe answer Is simplicity Itself. There are but two.sources— Freight Rates and Passenger Rales—and these combined must yield sufficient revenue to enable the railroads to pay tbelr operating erpenae* and taxes and earn a fair rate of Interest on the property It Is a plain business proposition and it has been the alm of scientific railroad management to maintain a parity between the two. so that each would bear Its proportionate share of tbe cost The right and propriety for such methods have been decided In many cases by the various State Supreme Courts and only recently the United State* Supreme Court emphasized this principle by bolding in the West Virginia vs Norfolk A Western Railroad Passenger Rate Case, that passenger fares could not be reduced to a point where the resultant revstwe would not be sufficient to properly maintain that branch of the service without regard to the earnings from any other branch of service In giving the decision of the court. Justice Huches In part said: "The fundamental question presented Is whether the validity of the passenger rate can be determined by Its effect upon tbe passenger business of the company, separately considered. What has been said in the opinion In Northern Pacific Ralway Company vs North Dakota, decided this day iante p—I. makt*l» an extended discussion of this question unnecessary, rt was recognized that the State has * broad field for the exercise of Its discretion In prescribing reasonable rates tor common carriers within its lurlsdlctlon; that it Is not necessary that there should be uniform rates, or h»- same percentage of profit on ever* sort of business; and that there Is abundant proof for reasonable classification and the adaptation of rates to various groups of services It was further held that despite this range of oermissable action the Stale has no arbitrary power over rates; that tbe devotion of (he property of the carrier to publ’r use Is qualified by the condition of the carrier's undertaking (hat Its services are to be performed 'or reasonable reward and that the State may not select n commodity, or class of traffic, and instead of fix-na whai mav he deemed to be reasonable compensation for Its carriage, compel the carrier to transport It either at ess than cost or for i compensation that I* mereh nominal "These considerations are controlling here The passenger traffic U one or the main departments of the company's business 1t has Its separate -qulpment. Its separate organization and management and of necessity It* own rates. In making a reasonable adjustment of the carrier’s charges, the State la under no obligation to secure the same rate of return from each ot 'he two principal departments of business, passenger and freight; but the State may not select either of these departments for arbitrary control. Thus. It would not be contended that the State might require passengers to be arrled for nothing or that It could justify such action by placing upon the shippers of goods the burden of excessive charges In order to supply ao adequate return for (he carrier’s entire service. And. on the same principle, it would also appear to be outside tbe field of reasonable adjustment that 'be State should demand tbe carriage of passengers at a rate so low that •t would not defrav the cost of thetr transportation, when the entire traffic tnder the rate was considered, or would provide only a nominal reward ta dditlon to cost That fact, satisfactorily proved, would be sufficient to ebut tbe presumption of reasonableness, and If In any case It could be said bat there existed other criteria by reference to which the rate could still bo supported as a reasonable one for the transportation Ip question It would be necessary to cause this to appear Northern Pacific Railway Company s North Dakota, supra, and cases there cited. ' It la apparent, from every' point of view that ttis record permits, that he statutory rale al most affords a very narrow margin over the cost of 'raffle It Is manifestly not a case where substantial compensation Is permilted and where we are asked to enter the domain of the legislative di»-retlon; nor Is It one in which It Is necessary to determine the value of the property employed In the Intrastate business. It Is clear that by the reducIon In rates the company Is forced to carry passengers. If not at or below oat. with merely a nominal reward considering the volume of the trafflo iffected We find no basis whatever upon which tbe rate can be supported nd It must be concluded In the light of the principles governing tbe regula■nn of rates that the State exceeded it* power In Imposing It." After an exhaustive Investigation by the Interstate Commerce Commfa ion. which showed that the railroads could not carry passengers for twe -ents per mile except at a loss, authority was granted by thl* Commlssloa to the Railroads in all of the Eastern State*, to Increase thetr passenger fares to two and one-half cents per mile for all journey* from one State ’o mother. . Governor Ferris. Lieutenant-Governor Dickenson, Secretary of State Vaughn. State Treasurer Haarer, Auditor-General Fuller and many other members of the Governor'* official family, a* well as the entire State Rall'oad Commission and hundreds of head* of large business concerns apd manufacturing Industries, based on the figure* submitted by tbe railroad* and verified by the report presented by request to the Legislature by tbe Railroad. Commission, have declared that the present Legislature should give the railroads Increased compensation by passing the proposed law. In presenting their reques* for an increase In their passenger rates, the Michigan Railroads have made a very strong showing on tbe cost of opera­ tion and maintenance, pointing out that while tbe railroads have been com­ pelled to operate on a two-cent basis, they have been confronted with 'ncreased taxes every year, while practically every kind of material which they must purchase has increased from five to one hundred per cent, and that the Increase tn the cost of labor has been from twenty-five to forty per cent. These figures have made a marked Impression upon the members ot the Legislature who have had no occasion heretofore to study thia matter. That the existing situation has been accurately presented by the rail­ roads has been verified by the statements made by the State Railroad Commlsslon and the need of relief Is so generally conceded that the Bill granting the Increase asked for should be reported out by the Joint Committee of the Senate and House at an early date QUAILTRAP CORNERS.

Just seo how brazen some men are. Why don’t they turn their heads. I beg? Why should they look at Mary’s hat? —Cincinnati Enquirer. Those high-step cars are a disgrace; They are entirely out of place. The distance should be cut in half. Then Mary wouldn’t show her ani­ mosity. —Detroit News.

If more clothes her form should drape, Mary wouldn’t show her disposition. —Memphis Commercial- AppeaL1 When Mary dons her shortened skirt, The men Imagine she will flirt. And wonder if the chilly breeze Doesn’t freeze her nearly to the neck. Kitchen Kinks. Bread should not be put into a too hot oven; it should not brown for the first ten minutes, and only gradually afterward. When citron has become hard, heat it in the oven for a few minute* and It can then be easily cut. Turnips, carrots, parsnips and sim­ ilar roots may be kept plump and fresh by being put into boxes filled with earth or sand and placed on the cellar floor. Curdled salad dressing or custard need not be wasted, as it may be re­ stored to a creamy state by using an egg beater and beating the mixture for a few minutes. To peel tomatoes without scalding them which many cooks think injures the finest flavor, go over the entire outside with the dull edge of a silver knife. They peel them as easily as if hot water had been used. Household Helps. Garments which have been stained with vaseline should be soaked in kerosene before water or soap touch­ es them. Vegetables and animal oils and fats, such as olive oil, but­ ter and other products known as grease, yield to soap and water. If the spot is large and the fabric heavy. It may be removed by the ap­ plication of heat and an absorbent. Place blotting or wrapping paper ov­ er and under the spot, and press a warm iron over it. ,Aa heat will change many colors, one should work cautiously, holding the iron above the goods until the - effoot is noted. Any kfad of coarkq meal will absorb grease. Of Interest to Women—Hints od Hosiery.

We hope the election of April 5 will bring to the polls every voter in the township who 1b able to be out of bed. There has not been a more important spring election in many years, not only on account of the reg­ ular election of township officers, but also on account of the importance of the state ticket and the election of county school commissioner.

Mrs. Melissa Roe delightfully entertained the officers and past worthy matrons of Laurel Chapter No. 31, 0. E. S., last Satur­ day afternoon at her home on Maple street, with a delicious five-course luncheon. The house was prettily decorated with baby primroses, ferns and the fire colors of the order. The center piece M3 each of the large tables was a jar of beautiful baby primroses and at each end of the tables were candles of the five colors of the order forming starts which gave the light for the first and fifth courses of the luncheon, the house being darkened. -----electricity furnished the light for the rest of the time. At twelve-thirty the guests march­ ed down stairs and around the tables to their places, which were designat­ ed by band-painted place curds, to strains of sweet piano music render­ ed by M iss Greta Quick, who also furnished music throughout the time of the luncheon. Mrs. Wood of Hastings catered and the following menu was served in a very creditable manner by six 0. E. S. sisters. Menu—first course, fruit rosettes, salted ndts; second course; ilshnest with pimento sauce, sliced cu­ cumbers. nut bread sandwiches, rad­ ishes, punch; third course; chicken cutlets with mushroom sauce, can­ died sweet potatoes, marble white potatoes, egg supreme, olives, jelly, hot rolls; fourth course, Japanese fruit salad, cheese balls, wafers; fifth course, watermelon Ice cream, cake, coffee, mint candies. The flow­ ers were red and white carnations. After the luncheon the rest of the afternoon was spent with flinch and •*500'’, and all present will ever have a pleasant memory of the occasion. Those who assisted the hostess were Mesdames Lillie Vance. Grace Munson. Clara Dahlhouser. Mae Northrop, Elizabeth Morris and Ed­ na Furniss. . BOOSTS FOR BETTER CORN. The State Savings Bank of Nash­ ville believes it will pay the farmers of this community to raise more and better corn than they have been do­ ing: better corn and more to the acre. They believe this can be done by care in selecting the right seed, and a careful study of methods of cultivation. In order to awaken more of an interest in corn culture, they have decided to offer prizes for the best corn raised this year iu the territory consisting of the east half of Barry county and the west half of Eaton county. For the best bush­ el of ears of white dent coni raised in this territory in 1915 they will award a prize of $8.00; for the second best bushel $4.00, and for the third best $2.00. Also for the best bushel of ears of yellow dent they will offer a prize of 8.00; for the second $4.00 and for the third $2.00. The corn is to be brought to the bank, where it will be put on display, and at some date which will be announced later the corn will be judged by disinterest­ ed parties and the prizes awarded. The contest is open to everybody in the territory stated, jtnd the bank hopes farmers will co-operate in mak­ ing the contest an interesting one and of practical value to the com­ munity. They will be pleased to have you drop into the bank and talk it over with them if there is anything about the proposition which you do not fully understand. The prize offered are liberal and ought to bring out a splendid showing of corn. NEW CREAMERY DOING Bl SI­ S'ESS. The new Nashville creamery made its first butter Thursday, and has since that time been a busy place, turning out a big lot of fine butter every day. There are now nearly (four hundred patrons sending cream to the new butter factory, and many more are planning to come. About 2500 pounds of butter were made the last three days of last week, and the product is claimed by good judges to be a fine article. .The re­ frigerating plant has been completied and works to perfection, and the new institution is rapidly getting systematized and into its regular channels of doing business. It starts out with splendid prospects and we bt.leve will be one of the leading butter factories of the state. NEW SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT. The school board held a meeting Monday evening, at which time they elected H. L. Rockwood of Sturgis superintendent of Nashville's schools for the coming year. Mr. Rockwood is a Michigan inaji, but his last teach­ ing was done at Corpus Cristi. Texas. He comes highly recommended, is of good appearance, holds three col­ lege degrees, and is undoubtedly well qualified to fill the place occupied for tj>e past seven years by Mr. Ap­ pleton. , NOTICE. Places of entertainment are want­ ed af once for the boys who will come to Nashville to attend the First Annual County Boys’ Conference on April 9 and 10.

We print this week, in another col­ umn, a communication signed "One Who is Interested in Nashville." which we commend to many of our readers. The writer is a level-head­ ed business man who knows what he is talking about, and while we do not agree with all hesays.we believe that on the whole he hits the nail on the head. Anyway, read it. There is much food for thought in the article. Don't forget to register next Sat­ urday, if you want to vole at the township election. This Is necessary only If you are a new votA who has not voted at township electins here­ tofore. or if you have moved into the township since the last general election. Being registered in the vil­ lage alone won't allow you to vote la the township election. Several us­ ually get fooled this way each year. Arthur G. Watts died suddenly last Sunday morning at his home southwest of town. Mr. Watts, though not a rugged man. was not considered seriously ill. The morn­ ing he died he was out in the yard and had just returned to the house, where he sat down in a chair and suddenly expired before medical aid could reach him. Funeral services were held al the Berryville church Wednesday at 11 o'clock and the remains placed in that Cemetery. There are many different kinds of paints, and all of them make claim to being the best, but it is hard to fool the wise buyer. He knows that the best insurance is the use of paints that have been on the market for many years and have been dem­ onstrated successfully. Masury’s paints are made by the oldest paint house in the country, and have al­ ways been recognized as of the very highest standard. Take no chances.

A, HANNEMANN SUCCESSOR TO London, March 23.—The white fla< was hoisted on the fortress of Przenayil during the day and the Russian army entered the city without firing a shot after a siege of six months to the day that has few parallels In history. Fifty thousand Austrian soldiers. 200 officers and nine generals threw down their arms and surrendered, worn to the last extremity by disease and hunger. The fall of the fortress is re­ garded In Petrograd and London art the greatest victory for Russian arms since the beginning of the war. Following up quickly the advantage gained by the capture of the Austrian stronghold, the Russian army has be­ gun a gigantic battle along the en­ tire Carpathian front. Re-enforce­ ments have been rushed into the mountains in the expectation of the fall of Przemysl and everywhere the Austrians are being attacked with marked stubbornness. The most violent con filets are tak­ ing place in the vicinity of the Dukla. Usxok and Lupkow passes, which are the three principal passes nearest Prxemysl, from which they are dis­ tant only about fifty miles. Russian Official Report. The official statement received from Petrograd says: "In consequence of the joyful event of the surrender of the fortress of Prxemysl, Generalissimo the Grand Duke Nicholas has been awarded the BL George's cross of the second de­ gree and General Sellwamoff. com­ mander of the army before Prxemysl, has been awarded the St. George’s cross of the third degree." Two Days' Losses 40.000. Austro-German losses in the at­ tempted sortie from Prxemysl and the fighting south of Tarnow in the last 48 hours total more than forty thou sand, according to a semiofficial state ment from the Russian war office. The gafrison originally numbered 190,000 men. The Russian armies engaged in the siege are now expected to ' vance simultaneously to besiege the fortress of Cracow and to aid in the invasion of Hungary. Petrograd Crowds Cheer. The news of the fall of the fortress evoked the wildest scenes in Petro­ grad since the beginning of the war. Crowds massed in the street and be­ fore the government buildings, cheer­ ing wildly. Almost daily the Austrian garrison has sallied forth to attack the Rus­ sian outposts, which were steadily drawing a tighter ring about the in­ ner forts. The Russian howitzers finally wrecked all the outer forts and the Russian war office several days ago made the significant announce­ ment that Russian troops were "with­ in rifle shot" of the main defense. Aeroplanes Bring Food. ' For months the only means of com­ munication between Przemysl and the outside world was by wireless teleg­ raphy and aeroplanes. There have been indications recent­ ly that hunger was an effective ally of the Russians, for it was reported that aeroplanes were making dally flights to Przemysl with cargoes of provisions.

Roch Tybushewcky. (Tubowhiaky.) “DAIRYMEN For the week ending March 13th, the top New York butter market was 29 l-2c. WE PAID 29c. Could you ask for more? It takes experience in selling as well as in the making of butter to get such prices as that. We make butter of quality, and from our long experience in the business are able to pick our buyers; therefore we are able to pay these high prices to you. The market is on the downward trend now, and within the next few weeks it will reach the summer basis; so don’t compare our price of today with the check you receive today for cream you sent to the creamery two weeks ago. Look back and see what our price was at the time you sent your cream. Just make a fair comparison is all we ask. Your, for top notch prices and a square deal.

From the Interior of the house came the sounds of fiddling, though these' strains of "Turkey tn the Straw" were only by way of prelude. Lescott felt, though he could not say just what con­ crete thing told him. that under the shallow note of merry-making brooded the major theme of a troublesome। problem.

The attitude of each faction was that of several men standing quiet with guns trained on one another’s breasta.

Fumiss & Wotring The Texall Stole KfiR In the death of Charles C. Deane, which occurred Sunday night, Nash­ ville has sustained a loss wnicb is real to every one of Its citizens. He was such a man as no community can afford to lose. Genial, kindly, big-hearted, energetic, a booster of dynamic force, he was the kind of man who helps build progressive towns. No man had more nt heart the up-building and general welfare of the community. His energy was of the kind which brooks no defeat. Opposition was as the breath of life ter him. making him strive the more strenuously to win. An optimist in every waking moment, his example of push and enterprise was an inspir­ ation to other business men. and es­ pecially of the younger generation. Honest as the sunshine, working with heart, head and hand at what­ ever came to him to do, he accom­ plished victories which would have been defeats to less determined men. Cut down in his prime, at his full ca­ pacity for work and pleasure, .his passing will be sincerely mourned by the entire community. That you will not point out the town's defects to a stranger, nor fall to point them out to your neighbors until they are remedied. That you will* keep buildings re­ paired and neatly painted and your promisee cleaned up, as a matter’of both pride and profit. That you will brag about Nash­ ville so much that you* will have to work for the town in order to keep from being a liar. That you will greet every stranger kindly and make him feel that Nash­ ville is the best town in the state. •THE MAN OF THE HOUR." W. E. Bogart, the magician who was billed to close the season for the Nashville Entertainment course, was unable to make Nashville for his date Monday evening, on account of be­ ing taken ill with pneumonia. The Alliance bureau, from whom the course was purchased, was fortun­ ately able to procure Dr. John A. Gray, the famous lecturer who had formerly appeared here, to supply the date, and the audience, instead of be­ ing disappointed, was more than pleased.

NASHVILLE'S ANCIENT HISTORY High school and Y. M. C. A. groups are organizing for a lively time at the men and boys’ banquet which Is to be the opening feature of the first annual older boys’ conference to to begin at Nashville next Friday evening. April 9. While a part of that evening’s program will he ad­ dresses by several boys and men, the visiting delegates promise to tuak« the banquet snappy with their yells and songs. Fred Hili, chairman of the enter­ tainment committee, is receiving many applications from various part* of the county. Among the first were eleven which came from Lelgh!ton. a rural point just over the bor­ der line In Allegan county. It Is al­ so likely that there will be represent­ ative delegates from Hastings, Mid­ dleville, Prairieville, Delton and oth­ er places. The boys who attend the confer­ ence will be Interested In seeing tho motion pictures of the state camp and also Of the state conference re­ cently held at Ann Arbor. Barry County’s delegation is shown In the great parade which was a part of the conference program The Bryan book will also be'exhibited. In it are more than 10,000 names of Mich­ igan boys who signed the pledge with W. J. Bryan, secretary of state, promising not to use intoxicating liquors. Mr. Bryan recently spoke In Philadelphia to 20,000 men, se­ curing 12,000 additional signatures to this pledge. He has commenced a campaign to get twenty million names before January 1st, 1917. Michigan provided the first list. At the annual convention of tne friends of the supervisory work ot the Barry county committee of the Y. M. C. A., held In Hastings last Wednesday evening, the same mem­ bers were re-elected and H. G. Hayes of Hasting* was added to the com­ mittee. Officers were elected as fol­ lows: Chairman, M. L. Cook, Hast­ ings; vice chairman, C. F. Parker, Middleville; recording secretary, V. W. Furnlw, Nashville; treasurer, A. E. Johnson, Hastings. County Secretary D. C. Vandercook was employed for a second year, and a budget approximating 12875 was considered and approved. The com­ mittee also decided that it would purchase an automobile, deciding that tn this manner It would be pos­ sible to develop a larger program, especially In rural communities. During the coming year, the com­ mittee will give the larger share of its attention to the further develop­ ment of leadership through the or­ ganization of groups. Secretary Vandercook was In Lansing last Monday and Tuesday at­ tending the conference of all county secretaries of the state. Dr. John Brown, Jr., of New York City, health and recreation expert, was present. Whooping Cough. Well—everyone knows the effect of Pine Forests on Coughs. Dr. Bell’s Pine-Tar-Honey is a remedy which brings quick relief for whooping cough, loosens the mucous, soothes the lining of the throat and lungs, and makes the coughing spells less severe.

Department of Employment Labor Inaugurates Offices throughout the United States to Furnish Men to Employers Without Cost. The U. S. Department of Labor has recently extended its system of employment offices so that___ now______ there are branch offices in every import­ ant city in the United States. These offices have been located centrally in the territory which has been as­ signed to them in order that help may be directed quickly to any ap­ plicants. The first office to be op­ ened by the Government was in New York City. This office has been in operation for a number of years and proved quite success­ ful. During the early part of the year offices were opened in zones and sub-zones, Chicago being in charge of a zone with Detroit and Sauli Ste Marie, Michigan, known as sub-zone offices. The state of Michigan has been divided into dis­ tricts and assigned to these three stations, the Upper Peninsula being assigned to the office at Sault Ste Marie and the Lower Peninsula to Detroit, with the exception of a few counties in the south-western part of the state which are more easily reached from Chicago. OBITUARY. Arthur G. Watts was born at Leba­ non, Indiana, January 22, 1874, and died at Nashville. Mich., March 21. 1915. He was the son of Winfield S. and Sarah A. Watts. He early learned the trade of printer, and be­ came a most efficient compositor and linotype operator, and worked at bls trade until bis health failed. He moved to Barry county, Mich., in March, 1914, In the hope of relief, but be failed rapidly until he passed away. He is survived by his widow, son. Paul, and father. Mr. Watts learned the printing trade at Lebanon, Indiana, and the Lebanon Dally Reporter of March 22 paid him the following tribute: "Mr. Watts was born in this county Jan­ uary 22, 1874. He was reared in this vicinity where he had resided practically all his life. He learned the printer's trade in the Pioneer office, when Dr. Harrison was editor of that paper. He mastered every detail of the printing business. Of late years, before his health failed him, he was a linotype operator. He had at different times been foreman, ad. man'and linotype operator in the three newspaper plants and J. W. Shumate’s job office. He was a thoroughly competent workman who had a complete knowl­ edge of all the details of the business. His associates who have worked with him pay him the compliment of say­ ing that there were few men who were better qualified to fill any posi­ tion in the composing room cf a news­ paper or job. office. Mr. Watts was popular with a large circle of friends who will be sorry to learn ot his death. Mr. Watts was married about twenty-two years ago to Miss Hattie B. Wills. The widow and one son, Paul, survive. His father, Scott Watts, resides in Indianapolis.” At the time these offices were op­ ened the efforts of the Department were directed solely toward supply­ ing farmers with help. Applica­ tions for help came In from farmers in all sections of the country, and the help was promptly supplied. Be­ cause of the success with which this office has met, the Department has now ordered that the service be ex­ tended so as to Include all classes of help, both skilled and unskilled. All offices are now prepared to receive COURAGE. applications from employer* for all classes of workmen.

Isn’t it about time for the people of this community .to get a little closer together, and work In a little closer harmony one with the other? A country town and the farming community surrounding it are broth­ ers, and the one cannot succeed with­ out the co-operation and active as­ sistance of the other. A farming section without its ad­ jacent railroad and market facilities would be a back number—a dead one—with little future ahead. Live farmers would shun it—would have nothing to do with it—for live men create a surplus, and they must have an outlet for that which they create. A farm adjacent to some live town and shipping facilities is worth double that of a piece Of ground with equal fertility located in some ob­ scure section of the country. The relative values of the products of the two farms would-be about the same —the one high, the other low. Therefore, the farming community is dependent upon the town and its advantages for much of the rural prosperity, tor the high value of land, for the ease with which ship­ ments are made. Farmers who believe in them­ selves, who want a prosperous com­ munity. should encourage the town and its industries—should buy from the home dealers, should keep .the money in the home community, where It adds to the commercial life of every person. Every dollar a farmer keeps in circulation at home simply adds that much to the riches of his own community, to the value of his own holdings. The town and the town merchant owe an equal duty to the farmer, for without his co-operation both town and merchant would perish. The town should make the farmer welcome, let him feel that he is among friends, that it is his town, that he has a personal interest in its welfare. The merchant should make it possible for the farmer to buy his goods as cheaply at home as he can from some foreign house, and he should keep this fact constantly be­ fore the farmer. He should encourage the farmer by keeping reliable goods and sell­ ing them at a reasonable price. Most merchants do this, although the ab­ sence of the merchant’s advertise­ ment from the local paper keeps the farmer in ignorance of the 'act. He should encourage the farmer in all ways, exhibit a brotherly feel­ ing and spirit, and give the farmer to understand that he Is Interested In his welfare as well as in the con­ tents ot bls pocketbook. It has been demonstrated repeat­ edly right here in this town that farmers can buy as cheaply from the local dealer as they can from a for­ eign bouse. But the foreign dealer floods the farmer with advertising matter, while some local dealers expect to be taken on faith. And the farmer Is a wise one— he takes nothing on faith. ‘•Show Me” is his creed. And he goes to the man who advertises— who "shows him.” Now isn’t it about time for us all to think a little, to g^et together, to push this community right up to the front?" WHY, JEFF. Jef? Livingston, who, tn spite of the fact that be is the president ol the great Snider Preserve Company and a millionaire, is as democratic as hl* first name, was once a poor boy and wore rags and patches with the rest of the “kids."

"Why didn’t you patch with a color to match?" they chuckled, “Why not with blue?** "Come, don’t be coy, my blue-brown boy. speak out!” and they laughed with glee; And he blushed rose-red, while he bashfully said: “That ain’t no patch; that’s me!” Cochart Spalled Maegregor.

In Phoenix, Arix., before the Novem­ ber election, all the liquor places put up a sign to this effect: "This build­ ing will be for rent if the 'dry' amend­ ment carries." After election the sa­ loon men refused to give up their leases, some of them opening drug ■tores, some soft drink stands, some restaurants. The law went into effect January L The day afterwards every baker and grocef In the city for the first time sold out his stock of bread, and the meat markets sold out their meats. Last year the arrests for drunkenness In Phoenix averaged. 12 per day; on the day after the saloons closed, for the first time In Its his­ tory the police court had no drunks.

"Weren't you scared ?” he was asked, when bls ab­ sence from the reunited family had been discovered and his rescue effect­ ed. "Didn’t it frighten you to stay ful scared at first," was Tim’s naive confession, "but this afternoon I was just sort o’ sleepy. I guess I got so scared, this morning that it scared the scare right out ot my bones!” Disavowed the Corset. In the nineteenth century, directly following the French revolution, when men lived and dreamed in terms of freemen, women expressed their desire for-an untrammeled existence by dis­ avowing their corsets and adopting the long, easy lines of the empire gown.

Boon she would return and Horton meant to-show that he had not burled his talent. For eight months Samson's life had run in th* steady ascent of gradual climbing, but In the four months from the first of August to the first of De­ eember, the pace of bis existence sud­ denly quickened. He left off drawing from plaster cests and went into a Ilf* class In this period Samson had his first acquaintanceship with women, except those he had known from childhood— and his first acquaintance with tbe men who were not of his own art world. Tony Collasso was an Italian illus­ trator who lodged and painted In studio-apartments In Washington Square, South. His companions were various, numbering among them a group of thos* pygmy celebrities of whom one has never heard until by chance he meets them, and of whom their intimates speak as of Immortals. To Collasso's studio Samson was called one night by telephone. He had sometimes gone there before to sit for an hour, chiefly as a listener, while the man from Sorrento bewailed fate with his coterie, and denounced all forms of government over Insipid Chianti. Bat tonight he entered the door to find himself in the midst of a gay and boisterous party. The room was al­ ready thickly fogged with smoke, and a dozen men and women, singing snatches of current airs, were Inter- 1 sating themselves over a chafing dish The crowd was typical. A few very minor writers and artists, a model or two. and several women who had thinking parts In current Broadway I j productions. At eleven o'clock the guests of honor arrived in a taxicab. They were Mr. William Farblsb and Miss Winifred Starr. Having come, as they explained, direct from the theater where Miss Starr danced In the first row, they were In evening dress Samson men­ tally acknowledged, though with in­ stinctive disfavor* for the pair, that both were, In a way, handsome. Collasso drew him aside to whisper im­ portantly: "Make yourself agreeable to Farbish. He is received in the moat exclusive society, and is a connoisseur of art. If he take* a fancy to you. he will put you up at the best clubs. I think I shall sell him a landscape." The girt was talking rapidly and loudly. She had at once taken th* center of the room, and her laughter rang In free and egotistical peal* above the other voice*. "Come, said the host, "I shall pre­ sent you." The boy shook hands, gazing with his usual directness Into the show­ girl’s large and deeply-penciled eye*. Farblsh, standing at one side with his hands In his-pockets, looked on with an air of slightly bored detach­ ment His drees, his mannerisms, hl* bear­ ing, were all thos* ot the man who ha* overstudied hl* part. They were too perfect, too obviously rehearsed through years of social climbing, but that was a defect Bamson was not yet prepared to recognize. Someone had naively complimented Miss Starr on the leopard-skin cloak she had just thrown from her shapely shoulders, and she turned promptly and vivaciously to the flatterer. "It Is nice, isn’t It?" she prattled. "It may look a little up-stage for a girl who hasn’t got a line to read into the piece, but these day* one must get the spot-light, er be a dead one.

Baker BI==IB A Guaranteed Saving CALIFORNIA *7012 �MEANS HIGH QUALITY The Studebaker is well built with pains-taking attention to details. The design of the Studebaker motor can he compared in excellence only with one or two of the most famous foreign cars. It will thread in and out of traffic on high gear without laboring, and across country will take the hills without trouble or hesi­ tation. Not the least satisfying feature of the Studebaker is its quiet and full response to the throttle. The long resilient springs cushions any road motion and the deep upholstering adds full comfort to the admitted driving power of the car. The Studebaker Jiffy curtains can be put in place quickly FROM INSIDE THE CAR. The throttle and spark levers are where they belong, above the steering wheel. Three Things are to be Considered in the Purchase of a Motor Car: Efficiency-Durability—Cost In the Studebaker are found the three requisites necessary to make it the most useful car manufactured. The STUDEBAKER has the poise and balance in build—the long, smooth, resilient spring—the low per cent of engine vibration —the deep upholstered cushion—the commodious room that brings to the rider all the delights that motoring affords. These are but parts of its EFFICIENCY. The STUDEBAKER is a RELIABLE car. No task too hard for it; no road too steep. It is easy to operate, being responsive to the slightest touch—can start slowly and does not give the sudden jerk that many lighter, cheaper cars give when starting. It carries its load gracefully and well. The STUDEBAKER has the required DURABILITY. It is made for use and for service. You do not have to “baby” a STUDEBAKER, just treat it fair. Its parts are all tested and perfected and the Studebaker Company stands back of their car. The STUDEBAKER is not the highest priced car, neither is it the lowest priced car on the market; BUT IT IS THE CHEAP­ EST CAR TO BUY. IT’S SATISFACTION THE MOTORIST WANTS. THE STUDEBAKER GIVES SATISFACTION. The STUDEBAKER combines quality, service and price in a way to give pleasure to every one of its users. give you a demonstration. At the first glimpse you get of this Studebaker FOUR you’ll begin to appreciate the evident QUALITY that Studebaker has built into its every detail, ”—because Lt’s a Studebaker.” For you’ll find It one of the handsomest cars you ever saw. A car of distinctive design—refined and graceful in lines, with a rare elegance of finish that few cars at any price can match. And you’ll notice, too, the roominess of this attractive car—and the handsome CROWN fenders and the wide doors with hidden hinges and catches, and deep, restful cushions finished with high grade, buffed leath­ er. And a hundred other little details that lend beauty and grace to its looks. But it is only when you study the mechanical construction of the car Itself that you realize how much you can buy in this car at $985—how needless it is to pay more for a FOUR cylinder car—and how unwise, too, It would bt to pay lees—■QUALITY you must have and this car can fully satisfy you on every essential quality point, and at a price below one thousand dollars. The rear axle, for example—it’s not merely a ’’floating type.” This FOUR hps a FULL-floatlng rear axle. It’s the most expensive form of axle—but It’s the safest and the easiest to get at. Nashville, Mich. A. Hastings, Mich. B. WINANS has been engaged as service man for Nashville. We are anxious to You'll And that Instead ot following the less expensive construction of driving through springs, Studebaker uses TWO radius rods and a torque arm of the drive. The springs are tree to take up the jolts and jars—and nothing else. • You'll find brakes of ample size to insure safety at all times on any roads. And a brake-equalizer ot the highest type. You'll find a silent and flexible motor that gives roadmastering power, and yet it Is marvelously economlcaL You’ll find Timken Bearings at every point of HARDEST wear—1J ot them in all. Is there another car at less than a thousand dollars that can give you as many? You’ll And a Studebaker-developed Electric System that never faila. And so in every detail you’ll find the QUALITY that Studebaker most put into the Studebaker FOUR ’’—because It’s a Studebaker.” But see this car—stand It side by side with other FOURS—no matter what the price—and judge its quality and what it gives, and then, when you know that you can get all this for |985—backed by the 145,000.000 guarantee of Studebaker—you’ll begin to realize that STUDEBAKER QUALITY is not merely an empty phrase.

A very old bit of eastern poetry, In which ancient fancy rioted as the modern fancy isr fairy tales, Is the story of Pyramus and Th is be, from Ovid, which the second and third year Latin classes are reading.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, oa they cannot reach the diseased portion of the car. There Is only one way to cure deafness, and that io by constitutional remedies. Deafru ss is caused by an inflamed condi­ tion of the mucous lining of the Eusta­ chian Tube.

From Tornadoes, Cyclones and Windstorms The time of year is approaching when Tornadoes, Cyclones and Windstorms will be prevalent. Hun­ dreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of property in Michigan will be destroyed by these whirl­ ing monsters this year, just as there is every year. Your home, your bam, your buildings may be included in the list of property destroyed, because there is no tell­ ing WHEN or WHERE these storms will strike. If your buildings are destroyed your loss will be TOTAL, unless you carry insurance against tornadoes, cyclones and windstorms, because the ordinary fire insurance policy will not protect you against loss by windstorm of any kind. and completely wiped out the little town of Petrieville, in Eaton county, which nestled on its banks. The people of that little town thought that because they were located in a valley and had never been visited by a cyclone that they never would be harmed, and that if a cyclone should come it would “jump aver them.” For that reason not a single person there carried a cent of insurance-against Cy­ clones and Windstorms. But EVERY BUILDING in the little town was COM­ PLETELY WRECKED. Cyclones absolutely know no law, and really seem to take special delight in violating all human probability. No locality is immune from their visits. YOU NEED INSURANCE against Cyclones and Windstorms. W'hen you take out a Policy you want the BEST POLICY FOR YOUR MONEY. You cannot afford to be without Cyclone and Windstorm Insurance, any more than you can without fire insurance, because experience teaches that as forests are cut down, cyclones and ..indstorms are becoming much more frequent than ever before. And as the country becomes cleared up and improved, there is less resistance, and therefore the destruction wrought is all the more terrific. This Company was organized 30 YEARS AGO. It is the LARGEST, STRONGEST and OLDEST Insurance Company of its kind in Michigan. It has OVER 60,000 MEMBERS and OVER $120,000,000.00 of insurance IN FORCE. During its 30 years of existence it has made ONLY 6 ASSESS­ MENTS. The man who took out a $1,000 policy with us 30 YEARS AGO has only paid $10.00 to carry his policy for the full 30 YEARS—or only about 30 cents a year to carry a $1,000 policy. In all the annals of insurance you cannot find an equal to this record, and EVERY LOSS has been FULLY and PROMPT­ LY PAID. There is no locality or section of the state that is exempt from the visits of these awful destroyers. They are just as apt to sweep down into the valleys, as one did last year, when it thundered down into the valley of the Grand river If you are not now carrying Cyclone and Windstorm insurance, just drop us a card and let us SHOW YOU how little it will COST YOU to be protected against Windstorms of every kind. Don’t delay. Why not DO IT NOW? THIS COMPANY HAS JUST RENEWED ITS CHARTER A PERIOD OF ANOTHER THIRTY YEARS.

It is my business to know things—quite by chance!" • •••••• Indian summer came again to Misery, flaunting woodland banners of crimson and scarlet orange, but to Sally the season brought only heartachy remembrances of last autumn, when Samson had softened his stoi­ cism as the haze had softened the hori­ zon. He had sent her a few brief let­ ters—not written, but plainly printed. He selected short words—as much like the primer as possible, for no other messages could she read. There were times in plenty when he wished to pour out to her torrents of feeling, and U was such feeling as would have carried comfort to her lonely' little heart. He wished to tell frankly of what a good friend he bad made, and how this friendship made him more able to realize that other feeling— bls love for Sally. There was In his mind no suspicion—as yet—that, these two girls might ever stand In conflict as to the right of-way. But the letters he wished to write were not the sort he cared to have read to the girl by the evangelist-doctor or the district­ school teacher, and alone she could have made nothing of them. However, "I love you” are easy words—and those he always Included. The Widow Miller had been ailing for months, and, though the local physician diagnosed the condition as being "right porely,” be knew that the specter of tuberculosis which stalks through these badly lighted and ven­ tilated houses was stretching out its Angers to touch her shrunken chest. This bad meant that Sally had to fore­ go the evening hours to study, be­ cause of the weariness that followed the day o( nursing and household drudgery Autumn seemed to bring to her mother a slight improvement, and Sally could again sometimes steal away with her slate and book, to sit alone on the big bowlder, and study. She would Dot be able to write that Christmas letter. There had b*en too many interruptions in the self-imparted education, but some day she would write. There would probably be time enough. It would take even Sam­ son a long while to become an artist. One day, tfs she was walking home­ ward from her lonely trysting place, she met the battered-looking man who carried medicines in bls saddlebags and the Scriptures In his pocket, and who practiced both forms of healing through the hills. The old man drew Wilfred Horton found himself that fall tn the position of a man whose course lies through rapids, and for the first time in his life his pleasures were giving precedence to business. Horton was the most-hated and mostadmired man in New York, but the men who hated and snubbed him were his pwn sort, and the men who ad­ mired him were those whom he would never meet, and who knew him only through the columns of penny papers. Powerful enemies had ceased to laugh, and begun to conspire. He must be silenced! How, was a mooted ques­ tion. Bilt, in some fashion, he must be silenced. (Society had not cast him out, but society had shown him Ln many subtle ways that be was no longer her favorite. He bad taken a plebeian stand with the masses. Mean­ while. from various sources, Horton had received warnings of actual per­ sonal danger. But at these he had laughed, and no hint of them had reached Adrienne's ears. One evening, when business had forced the postponement of a dinner engagement with Miss Lescott, be begged her over the telephone to ride ■ with him the following morning. “I know you are usually asleep when I'm out and galloping.” he laughed, "but you pitched me neck and crop into thia hurly-burly, and I shouldn't have to lose everything Don't have your horse brought I want you to try out a new one of mine." "1 think." she answered, "that early morning is the best time to ride. I'll meet you at seven at the Plaza en­ trance.” They had turned the upper end of the reservoir before Horton drew bls mount to a walk, and allowed the reins to hang. Theft had been galloping hard, and conversation had been irApracticable. "1 suppose experience should have taught me," began Horton, slowly, "that the most asinine thing In the world Is to try to lecture you. Drennle. But there are times when one must even risk your delight at one's dlacomflture." "I'm not going to tease you this morning," she answered, docilely. "I like the horse too well—and, to bo frank, 1 like you too well!” "Thank you." smiled Horton. “As usual, you diHann me on the verge of combat. I hud nerved myself for ridicule.” "What have I done now?" Inquired the girl, with an innocence which further disarmed him. "The queen can do no wrong. But even the queen, perhaps more par* tlcularly the queen, must give thought to what people are saying." "What are people saying?” "The usual unjust things that are said about women in society. You are being constantly seen with an uncouth freak who is scarcely a gentleman, however much he may be a man. And malicious tongues are wagging." The girl stiffened. "I won't spar with you. I know that yon are alluding to Samson South, though the description Is a slander. I never theught it would be necessary to say such a thing to you, Wilfred, but you are ulkls.g like a cad."

LENTZ At the last annual meeting the Barry & Eaton mutual insurance company decided to "re-write" the company, which means that every policy-holder of the company will be visited by an agent of the company, his policy taken up. a new applica­ tion made and a new policy issued. This is made desirable if not actual­ ly necessary for the reason that there have been during the past five years many changes made In the by­ laws of the company, and the old policies in the hands -of policy hold­ ers do not conform to nor contain the new by-laws. The rewriting will be be a big job and will take some time, but the company management thinks it will be time and money­ well spent. Secretary E. V. Smith will have charge of the work in Cas­ tleton township. Elmer Swift will do the work in Maple Grove and Baltimore. Eugene Carey In Vermont­ ville township. Oscar Spencer In Woodland township. A. T. Shepard in Assyria and S. Ira Mapes in Kalamo township. The other townships tn the two counties have been assigned to capable men who are now at the work, which it is hoped may be coqtpleted before the first of June.

The Nashville high school base ball team went to Middleville last Fri­ day afternoon for their first game this season*, and were defeated by a score of 10 to 6. The boys are un­ daunted. however, and with the large amount of material to pick from and the diligence they are showing in practice should be able to give a good account of themselves before the season ends. The line­ up at Middleville was: Hyde, c; Gardner and McWha, p? Rentschler. 1st b; Hecker, 2nd b; Hill and Townsend, ss; Kidder, 3rd b; Neeman. If; McKinnis, cf; McWha, rf. Several other dates have already been arranged, as follows: April 24— At Lake Odessa; May 1—At Belle­ vue; May 7—Middleville here; May 12—Hastings here. Local fans will have a chance to witness six or seven home games this season. RECOUNT FLUCTUATES. The recount of the vote of the county on the recent election for school commissioner Is in progress at Hastings. At the close of the first day's work, on Saturday, Mr. Apple­ ton was eleven votes in the lead of Mr. Edger. Monday Edger gained four votes, leaving Appleton seven ahead. Tuesday's work reversed the standing. Edger gaining ninevotee and leaving him two votes ahead of Ap­ pleton. with six precincts' still to be counted. The vote is so close that final result can be but a matter of conjecture, and one candidate is as likely to be returned a winner as the other. The contest has aroused a great deal of Interest in the county, and the final account is anxiously awaited by many besides the candi­ dates themselves. WOMAN'S LITERARY CLUB. . The Nashville W. L. C. met last Tuesday at the home of Mrs. Daisy Lentz. It was Michigan Day and roll call was answered by naming famous men and women of our State. Mrs. Ellen Andrews then gave an excellent paper on "Products of the Farm.” Mrs. M«e Pratt read a pa­ per on "Manufactures", giving a clear Idea of the magnitude and di­ versity of manufactured products. The topic “Textiles" was ably treat­ ed by Mrs. Ellen Humphrey and "Minerals” by Mrs. May Rothhaar. After one stanza of "Michigan, My Michigan”, an interesting discussion "Could Michigan Exist on its own Resources if cut off from the rest of the World” was led by Mra. Belle Marble. After hearing Mrs. An­ drew# crop report the verdict was unanimous that ft would be possible Ito “exist” though opinions differed as to the Joys of such existence. The meeting postponed on account of the death of Mr. Deane was held yesterday at the home of Mrs. Bar­ ker. Roll call—"First Aid to the In­ jured". "The Old Way In Medicine and Surgery", as told by Mrs. Mar­ tha Brumm, was Interesting and sometimes amusing. There was noth­ ing funny in the Old Way of ampu­ tation. when the limb was sawed off without ether or fuss. "Modern Ways In Medicine and Surgery", was handled by Mrs. Daisy Lentz in her usual thorough manner. One gained much knowledge of the great advance in medical science from her paper. "Duties and Privileges of the Board of Health" was the top­ ic given Mrs. Maude Glasner. We never knew they had so many duties and powers. Their great privilege is educating people on health topics, nn opportunity for service. . "Tie worth a wise man's best in life 'Tis worth a thousand years of strife.

UTTS OCT OUT OF THE RUT. What’s the use of spending our whole lives sleeping in the same old rut when thers are bigger ones all around us? What's the use of being in a rut at allT We want more industries in this town, and new Industrie* are never found in rut*. Hut* are too small lor them. Let's crawl up out of our rut. . There is nothing in the old rut for us, but there are opportuni­ ties in every direction if we care to reach out and grasp them. It Is up to ns. We can stagnate in our rut, or we can reach out and grasp something—pull ourselves out—do something—get to the top. But we'll never do it as long as we rattle around in the same old rut with the dry bones of our ancestors for company. We need new industries, and there are manufacturers all over the country looking for changes in location. But they will never erect their plants in a rut. They are full of life, and they want a live atmosphere about them. They want to locate in a community with advantages. We have them. They want to be surrounded by people of intelligence, who know how to use their brains. We have the intelligence, and our brains are capable of ac­ complishing vastly more than we have ever dreamed of in the past. Nashtlle is charged with in ellectual and physical dynamite, but it is in a rut and needs some one to blow it out. Let's all get busy and blow. Let’s pull some of those manufacturers into this town on a tour of Inspection, and then let’s give them a fair opportunity to size up our natural advantages and our Intellectual force. We won’t get them all. but we will get some of them. Nobody ever swallows a lo f of bread at one gulp. Many bites make up a square meal, and many efforts will bring new Industrlee Into our midst, with bigger pay rolls, and more money in circulation, and more houses to be filled and mouths to be fed. It all contributes to the prosperity of a community. . We want prosperity here, but prosperity never goes out lookIngs for a place to light. We must book It on the fly, and our hook must be well baited or the other fellow will have the strongest pull. Again we say. let’s get out of our rut and do something. Let’s make a careful and systematic campaign for new indus­ tries, Increased population and greater prosperity. It’s waiting for us. but it won’t come to us. We must go out after it. Opportunity is everywhere, but it won’t crawl into our pockets uninvited. We must reach out tor it, grasp it, haul it In with united community pull. How many Nashville citizens would like to see new factories come to this town? How many are willing to Join whole heartedly in an e/tort to get them? Let’s stand up and be counted. A. R.

He has caused club gossip, which may easily be twisted and misconstrued.” “Do you fancy that Samson Smith could have taken me to the Wigwam road-house if I had not cared to go with him?" The man shook his head. “Certainly not! But the fact that you did care to go with him Indicates an Influence over you which is new. You have not sought the bohemian and unconventional phases of life with your other friends. There Is no price under heaven I would not pay for your regard. None the less, I repeat that, at tbe present moment, I can see only two definitions for this moun­ taineer. Either he is a bounder, or else be Is so densely Ignorant and churlish that he Is unfit to associate with you." "I make no apologies for Mr. South,” she said, "because none are needed. He is a stranger In New York, who knows nothing, and cares nothing about the conventionalities. If I chose to waive them. I think it was my right and my responsibility.” Horton said nothing, and. In a mo­ ment Adrienne Lescott's manner changed. She spoke more gently: "Wilfred. I'm sorry you choose to take this prejudice against the boy. You could have done a great deal to help him. I wanted you to be friends." "Thank you!” His manner was stiff. "I hardly think we'd bit it off together." “I believe you are Jealous!" she announced. "Of course. I'm jealous.” he replied, without evasion. "Possibly, I might have saved time in the first place by avowing my jealousy. I hasten now to make amends. I'm green-eyed." She laid her gloved fingers lightly on his bridle hand. “Don’t be,” she advised: “I’m not tn love with him. If.I were, it wouldn't matter. He has “ *A neater, sweeter maiden, “Tn a greener, cleaner land.* He’s told me all about her.” Horton shook his head, dubiously. "I wish to the good Lord, he’d go back to her," he said. CHAPTER XI. One afternoon, swinging along Fifth avenue In his down-town walk, Sam­ son met Mr. Farblsh. who fell Into step with him, and began to mak* conversation. "By tbe way. South,” he suggested after the commonplaces had been dl»posed of, ^'you'll pardon my little pre­ varication the other evening about having met you at the Manhattan club?" “Why was It necessary?” Inquired Samson, with a glance of disquieting directness. "Possibly, it was not necessary, merely politic. Of course," he laughed, “every man knows two kinds of women. It's just as well not to dis­ cuss the nectarines with the orchids, or the orchids with the nectarines." Samson made no response. But Farblsh, meeting his eyes, felt as though he had been contemptuously rubuked. His own ey"s clouded with an Impulse of resentment But It passed, as he remembered that his plans involved the necessity of win­ ning this boy's confidence. At the steps of a Fifth avenue club, Farblsh halted. "Won’t you turn In here." he sug­ gested, "and assuage your thirst?” Samson declined, and walked on. that note of tbe migratory "honk" from high overhead. "Samson," said Lescott slowly, as he caught the gleam in his friend's eyes, "you’ve been working too hard. You'll Eave to take a week off, and try your hand. After you’ve changed your method from rifle to shotgun, you'll bag your share, and you'll come back Otter for work. I must arrange it" ‘‘Aa to that*’’ suggested Farblsh, In the manner of one regarding the civilities, "Mr.-South can run down to the Kenmore. I'll have a card made out for him." "Don't trouble," demurred Lescott, coolly, “I can fix that up.” "It would be a pleasure,” smiled the other. "I sincerely wish I-, could be there at the same time, but I'm afraid that, like you, Lescott, 1 shall “I Will Arrange So That You Will Not Run Up on Wilfred Horton." have to give business the right of way. However, when I hear that the flights are beginning, 1'11 call Mr. South up, and pass the news to him.” Samson had thought it rather singu­ lar that he had never met Horton at the Lescott house, though Adrienne spoke of him almost as of a member of the family. However, Samson's visits were usually In his Intervals be­ tween relays of work and Horton was probably at such times in Wall street It did not occur to the mountaineer that the other was intentionally avoid­ ing him. He knew of Wilfred only through Adrienne's eulogistic descrip­ tions, and, from hearsay, liked him. Tbe months of close application to easel and books had begun to tell on the outdoor man in a softening of muscles and a slight though notice­ able, pallor. The enthusiasm with which he attacked Ms daily schedule carried him far, and made his progress phenomenal, but he was spending capital of nerve and health, and George Lescott began to fear a break-down for his protege. He discussed the matter with Adrienne, and th* girl began to promote In the boy an Inter­ est In the duck-shooting trip—an in­ terest which had already awakened, despite the rifleman's Inherent con­ tempt for shotguns. ”1 reckon rd like it, all right,” he said, "and I'll bring back some ducks. If I'm lucky.” So, Lescott arranged the outfit, and Samson awaited the news of the com­ ing flights. That same evening. Furbish dropped Into the studio, explaining that he had been. buying a picture at Collasso's, and had taken the opportunity to stop by and hand Samson a visitor's card to the Kenmore club. He found the ground of Interest fallow, and artfully sowed It with well chosen anecdotes calculated to stimulate enthusiasm. On leaving the studio, he paused to 'Til let you know when conditions are just right." Then, he added, as though In afterthought: "And I’ll ar­ range so that you won't run up on Wilfred Horton." “What’s the matter with Wilfred Horton?” demanded Samson, a shade curtly. “Nothing at all," replied Farblah. with entire gravity. “Personally, I like Horton Immensely. I simply thought you might find things more congenial when he wasn't among those present," Samson was puzzled, but he did not fancy hearing from this man's lips criticisms upon friends of his friends. “Well, I reckon," he said, coolly, “Td like him, too." “I beg your pardon." said the other. "I suppose you knew, or I shouldn’t, have mentioned the subject I seem to have said too much.” "See here. Mr. Farblsh.” Samson spoke quietly, but imperatively; "if you know any reason why I shouldn't meet Mr. Wilfred Hortoa, I want you to tell me what It is. He Is a friend of my friends. You say you’ve said too much. I reckon you've either dropped Into the same club with George Lescott, Farblsh joined them In the grill—without invitation. "By the way, Lescott," said the Interloper, with an easy assurance upon which the coolness of his re­ Attorney-*t-l*i ception had no seeming effect, “It won’t be long now until ducks ar* flying south. Will you get off for your customary shooting?" Dr. B. B. Miller.

"I reckon everybody that knows me in New York, except the Loacotts, 1* laughing at me be­ hind my back." He worked fiercely, and threw into hi* work such fire and energy that it came out again converted Into bold­ ness of stroke and an almost savage vigor of drawing. The instructor nodded his head over the easel, and passed on to the next student without having left tbe defacing mark of his relentless crayon. To the next pupil, he said: , “Watch the way that man South draws. He's not clever. He's elemen­ tally sincere, and, if ho goes on, the first thing you know he will be a por­ trait painter. He won't merely draw eyes and Ups and noses, but character and virtues and vices showing out through them.” And Samson met every gaze with smoldering savagery, searching for some one who might be laughing at him openly, or even covertly, instead of behind his back. The long-suffer­ ing fighting lust in him craved oppor­ tunity to break out and relieve the pressure on his souL But no one laughed. One afternoon late in November, a hint of blizzards swept snarling down the Atlantic seaboard from the polar floes, with wet flurries of snow and rain. Off on the marshes where the Kenmore club had its lodge, the live decoys stretched their clipped wings, and raised their green necks restively into the salt wind, and listened. With dawn, they had heard, faint and far away, the first notes of that wild chorus with which the skies would ring until the southerly migrations ended —the horizon-distant honking ot high flying water fowl. Then it was that Farblsh dropped in with marching orders, and Samson, yearning to be away where there were open skies, packed George Lescott's borrowed paraphernalia, and prepared to leave that same night While he was packing, the telephone rang, and Samson heard Adrienne's voice at the other end of the wire. "Where have you been hiding?” she demanded. “Ill have to send a truant officer after you." "I've been very busy,” said the man, "and I reckon, after all, you can’t civilize a wolf. I’m afraid I've been wasting your time.” Possibly, the miserable tone of the voice told the girl more than the words. "You are having a season with the blue devils," she announced, "You've ben cooped up too much. This wind ought to bring the ducks, and—" “I'm leaving tonight," Samson told her. "It would have been very nice of you to have run up to say good-by,” sho reproved. "But I’ll forgive you, if you call ,me up by long distance. You will get there early In the morn­ ing. Tomorrow, I’m going to Philadel­ phia over night The next night I shall be at the theater. Call me up After the theater, and tell me how you like IL" It was the same old frankness and friendliness of voice, and the same old note like the music of a reed In­ strument Samson felt so comforted and reassured that he laughed through the telephone. "Pve been keeping awry from you," he volunteered, "because I've had a lapse into savagery, and haven't been fit to talk to you. When 1 get back. I'm coming up to explain. And, in the meantime, I’ll telephone." On the train Samson was surprised to discover that, after all, he had Mr. William Farblsh for a traveling com­ panion. That gentleman explained that he had found an opportunity to play truant from business for a day or two, and wished to see Samson comfortably ensconced and Introduced. The first day Farblsh and Samson had the place to themselves, but the next morning would bring others. The next day, while the mountain­ eer was out on the flats, the party of men at the club had been swelled to a total of six. for In pursuance of the carefully arranged plans of Mr. Farblsh. Mr. Bradburn had succeeded in inducing Wilfred Horton to run down for a day or two of the sport he loved. When Horton arrived that afternoon, he found his usually even temper ruffled by bits of maliciously broached gossip, unt!’. his resentment against Samson .South had been fanned into danger heat He did not know that South also was at the club, and he did not that afternoon go out to the blinds, but so tar departed from his usual custom as to permit himself to sit for several hours in th* club grill. fully designed affairs, the on* element that mad* moat powerfully for th* success ef Farblsh’* schema was pur* accident The carefully arranged meet­ ing between the two men. the adroitly incited passion* <rf each, would still fred Horton been affected by the flush­ ing effect ot alcohol.

Headquarters for Window Shades Chinamel Varnishes and Graining Material Furniss & Wotring The GRexall Stole PRIZES FOR CUCUMBERS. The Nashville banks and business men are cooperating with the Dollman Pickle Co. in offering prizes for the best crop? of cucumbers to be raised around here this season. A prize of 110.00 In gold will be given to the boy who raises the best acre. A sim­ ilar prize to the girl who raises the best acre. A prize of $5.00 in gold to the boy who raises the best half acre, and a similar prize to the girl who raises the best half acre. In each of these competitions there must be at least five entries. There will also be a prize of $2.50 to the boy who raises the best crop on a city lot, and a similar prize to the girl who raises the best crop on a city lot. On top of this, the Doll­ man Pickle Co. will give a grand prize of $25.00 in gold for the best acre raised in the. entire district con­ tracted for by the Nashville station. Therefore some boy or girl might pull down this grand prize as well as the special $10.00 prize, competing against the farmer, while the farmer can secure' the $25.00 prize, but of course can not come Into competi­ tion for the special prizes for girls and boys. These prizes are liberal and worth working for, and are like­ ly to stimulate a lively competition for the raising of- good crops. Of course, the better crop, the more money, even though no special prize is won. so it wiy well pay any raiser to give the cucumber proposition his very beat efforts. CELEBRATED ANNIVERSARY.

After the ban­ quet had been disposed of to the sat­ isfaction of all concerned, a splendid program of music and speeches was listened to. the music of the High School quartette being particularly well enjoyed. At the close of the program O. G. Munroe, In a few wellchosen words, presented Charles H.

The occasion was one which was greatly enjoyed by all who were for­ tunate enough to be present. worth much more than the prizes tc learn how to raise better corn and more to the acre.

THE MERCHANT AND THE COMMUNITY. This la Old Man Felghner telling you this, and "Fike” thinks I he knows what he is talking about. । The small town merchant is a necessity, and that which, la I necessary should be protected. The community needs his wares ! as much as he needs the community cash.' But not every small town merchant is alive to his opportunlties and his obligations. Many of them fall by the wayside because of their Ignorance of I or Indifference to th* rights of the public. I Fifty years ago the town merchant sat In his store and waited I for business to come to him. Today the successful merchant Is a hunter—he must go out gunI ning for customers—and his ammunition is his stock In trade I and his gun Is the local newspaper. ; Country people of today are Intelligent and up to date as their I city cousins, and they guage the merchant by his own actions. ■ If he Is a hustler—If he keeps his store clean, his goods I neatly displayed, bls advertisement running regularly In the local I paper—he attracts the public eye, and the public follows its eye. ' But a clean store, neatly displayed goods and newspaper adverI Using are not the only requisites to a successful mercantile ca- He should be progressive—constantly bidding for trade—devis­ ing means of bettering the condition of the consumers, and ac­ quainting them of the fact.—He should consider their welfare as well as his own. The merchant should have one iron creed, and that creed should never be broken: He should treat all customers alike, never misrepresent his goods, and keep his shelves well stocked with truth. He should consider the other business men in the community, for their rights are as great as his own. They do not own the town, and neither does he*. . He should Join wholeheartedly In movements for building up and expanding the business interests of the community, for suc­ cess is only found on the topmost rungs of the ladder. The merchant who has built up a reputation as a public spirit­ ed man, as one who labors for the well being of the whole com­ munity, never lacks for customers at his store. They migrate toward his door as naturally as the birds fly south In winter. Such merchants gain the confidence of the people, for the people know that the same Intelligence and fair mindedness which heexerts In behalf of the community will be extended to bls custo­ mers In commercial life. Most country towns have a few such merchants In their midst, and the community is the better off for their presence. You Invariably find their advertisements in the local papers, telling of the merits of the wares they have to sell, and giving the people that Information to which they are clearly entitled. Such business men are successful, because their methods of business and their very attitudes breathe success. They have many customers, because the people admire a hus­ tler. This town is located in a splendid community, and it should I have a bright future ahead of It. But it depends upon us alone. We have some good business men In this town. They are well supplied with brains, and those brains are capa­ ble of accomplishing great results. Individually they can do much, but collectively they can rev­ olutionize trading conditions of this community. The money that Is being daily sent away for goods might just as well be spent at our local stores—and would be. If the mer­ chants arose to the opportunities before them. It is the easiest thing In the world to keep the money at home, for consumers are not fools. • » • -wi — Just keep the goods the people want, and of the quality they I and that Is by constitutional remedies. | Deafness is caused by an Inflamed condl- The average boy ought tu bare, and | i j Deafness is tho result, and unless the in­ usually does have, au up;>etlte like an flammation can bo taken out and this TL.^w points to remember _ 21 are: i [ j tube restored to Its normal condition, ostrich.

When you convince the consumer that yon have the goods that he wants, and that they can be purchased here Just as cheaply ____ _ _as elsewhere, he will keep his money at home by trading at home.

This splendid Maxwell dealer service organization is perfected and completed by the chain of Maxwell owned and Maxwell operated Service Branches. Sixteen great Maxwell Service Stations are so located throughout the country that a Maxwell dealer can supply any part for an owner within a few hours if not in his stock.

Instantly, there was a commotion of scraping chairs and shuffling feet, mingled with a chorus of Inarticulate protest. Samson had risen, and. for a second, bis face had become a thing of unspeakable pas­ sion. His hand instinctively swept toward his pocket—and stopped half­ way. He stood by his overturned chair, gazing into the eyes of his as­ sailant, with an effort at self-mastery which gave his chest and arms the appearance of a man writhing and stiffening under electrocution. Then, he forced both hands to his back and gripped them there. For a moment, the tableau was held, then the man from the mountains began speaking, slowly and In a tone of dead-level monotony.

That's the first blow I've ever passed. ... 1 ain't going to bit back. . . . You need a friend pretty bad just now. ... For certain reasons, I'm going to be that friend. . . . Don't you see that this thing Is a damned frame-up? . . . Don't you see that I was brought here to murder you?" He turned suddenly to Farblsh. “Why did you insist on my putting that In my pocket"—Samson took out the pistol, and threw It down on the table-cloth In front of Wilfred, where It struck and shivered a half-filled wine-glass—"and why did you warn me that thia man meant to kill me? I was meant to be your eatspaw to put Wilfred Horton out of your way. I may be a barbarian and a savage, but I can smell a rat—if It's dead enough." For an Instant there was absolute and bushed calm. Wilfred Horton picked up the discarded weapon and looked at It in bewildered stupefac­ tion, then slowly his face flamed with distressing mortification. "Any time you want to fight me”— Samson had turned again to face him. and waa. still talking in his deadly quiet voice—"except tonight, you can find tne. I've never been hit before without hitting back. That blow has got to be paid for—but the man that's really responsible has got to pay first. When I fight you. I’ll fight for myself, not for a bunch of damned murderers. . . . Just bow, I’ve gov other business. That man framed this up!** He pointed a lean finger across the table Into the startled countenance of Mr. Farblsh. "He knew! He has been working on this job for a month. I'm going to attend to his case now." As Samson started toward Farblsh. the conspirator rose, and, with an ex­ cellent counterfeit of insulted virtue, pushed back his chair. "By God." he Indignantly exclaimed, "you mustn't try to embroil me in your quarrels. You must apologue. You are talking wildly. South.” "Am I?" questioned the Kentuckian, quietly; "I'm going to act wildly In a minute." He halted a short distance from Fur­ bish. and drew from his pocket a crumpled scrap of the offending maga­ zine page: tbo Item that naa otrenaeu Horton. "I may not have good manners, Mister Farblsh, but where I come from we know bow to handle varmints." He dropped his voice and added for the plotter's ear only: "Here’s a little matter on the side that concerns only us. It wouldn't interest these other gentlemen." He opened his hand, and added: "Here, eat that!" Farblsh with a frightened glance at the set face of the man who waa ad­ vancing upon blm, leaped .back, and drew from his pocket a pistol—It was an exact counterpart of the one with which ho had supplied Samson. With a panther-like swiftness, the Kentuckian leaped forward, and struck up the weapon, which spat one In­ effective bullet Into the rafters. There waa a momentary scuffle of swaying bodies and a crash under which the table groaned amid the shattering of glass and china. Then, slowly, the conspirator's body bent back at the waist, until Its shoulders were stretched on the disarranged cloth, and the white face, with purple veins swelling on the forehead.- stared up between two brown hands that gripped Its throat "Swallow that!" ordered tbe moun­ taineer. For Just an Instant tbe company stood dumfounded, then a strained, unnatural voice broke tbe silence. "Stop him, he's going to kill the man!” The odds were four to two, and wlti^ a sudden rally to tbe support of their chief plotter, the other conspira­ tors rushed the figure that stood throt­ tling his victim. But Samson South was in bls element. Tbe dammed-up wrath that had been smoldering dur­ ing these last days was having a tem­ pestuous outlet He had found men who, In a gentlemen's club to which he bad come as a guest sought to use him as a eatspaw and murderer. As they assaulted blm, en masse, be seized a chair, and swung It flallllke about his bead. For a few mo­ ments. there was a crashing of glass and china, and a clatter of furniture and a chaos of struggle. Samson South stood for a moment panting in a scene of wreckage and disorder. Tbe table waa littered with shivered glasses and decanters and chinaware. The furniture was scat tered and overturned. Farblsh was weakly leaning to one side in the seat to which he had made hia way. The men who had gone down under the heavy blows of the chair lay quleti; where they had fallen. Wilfred Horton stood waiting The whole affair had transpired with such celerity and speed that he uad hard!} understood it. and had taken no part But, as he met the gaze of the dis­ ordered figure acrOBS the wreckage of a dinner-table, he realized that now with the preliminaries settled, he who had struck Sam non in the face must give satisfaction for the blow. Horton was sober, as cold sober as though he had jumped Into ice-water, and though he was not in the least afraid, be was mortified, and, had apology at such a time been possible, would have made IL He knew that be had misjudged his man; be saw the outlines of the plot as plainly as Samson bad seen them, though more tardily. Samson's toe touched the pistol which had dropped from Farbish's band and he contemptuously kicked It to one aide. He came back to his place. "Now, Mr. Horton." he said to the man who stood looking about with a dazed expression, "If you're still of the same mind. I can accomodate you. You lied when you said 1 was a sav­ age—though just now It sort of looks like I was. and”—he paused, then added—"and I’m ready either to fight o[ shake hands. Either way suits me." For the moment, Horton did not speak, and Samson slowly went on: "But, whether we fight or not. you’ve got to shake hands with me when we're finished. You and me ain’t going to start no feud. This Is the first time I*ve ever refused to let a man be my enemy If he wanted to. Tve got my reasons. I’m going to make you shake hands with me whether you like it or not, but If you want to fight first It's satisfactory. You said awhile ago you would be glad to be more explicit with me when we were alone—’’ He paused and looked about the room. “Shall I throw these damned murderers out of here, or will you go into another room and talk?" "Leave them where they are,” said Horton, quietly. "We’ll go into the reading-room. Have you killed any of them?” “I don’t know," said the other, curt­ ly, "and I don't care." When they were alone, Samsoa went on: “I know what you want to ask me abouL and 1 don’t mean to answer you. You want to question me about Miss Lescott. Whatever she and I have done doesn't concern you. I will say thia much—If I’ve been ignorant of New York ways and my Ignorance has embarrassed her. I’m sorry. • "I supposed you know that she’s too damned good for you—just like she's too good for me. But she thinks more of you than she does of me—and she’s yours. As for me, I have nothing to apologise to you for. Maybe, I have something to ask her pardon about, but she hasn’t a*ked IL "George Lescott brought me up here sad befriended me. Until a year ago I had never known any life except that of tho Cumberland mountains. Until I met Miss Lescott, I had never known a woman of your world. She was good to mo. She saw that In spite of my roeghnesa and Ignorance I wanted to learn, and she taught mo. You chose to misunderstand, and dis- uhM aw. .. ., , believed that. If they could make yon Insult me. me, thev they could make me mo kill you. As to your pan, they succeeded. I didn’t eee fit to oblige them, buL now that I’ve settled with them, l*m willing to give you satisfaction. Do we fight now and shake hands after­ ward, or do we shake bands without fighting?” Horton stood silently studying the mountaineer. "Good God!” he exclaimed at last "And you are the man I undertook to criticize!" "You ain’t answered my question," suggested Samson South. "South, if you are willing to shake hands with me I shall be grateful. I may as well admit that, If you had thrashed me before that crowd, you could hardly have succeeded in mak­ ing me feel smaller. I have played into their hands. 1 have been a damned foot I have riddled my own selfrespect—and If you can afford to ac­ cept my apologies and my hand I am offering you both." "I’m right glad to hear that," said “I’m Ready Either to Fight or Shake Hands.” the mountain boy, gravely. "I told you I'd just as lief shake hands as fight . . . But just now I've got to go to the telephone." The booth was In the same room, and. as Horton waited, be recognized the number for which Samson was calling. Wilfred's face once more flushed with the old prejudice. Could It be that Samson meant to tell Adri­ enne Lescott what bad transpired? Was he. after all. the braggart who boasted of hie fights? And, If not, was it Samson's custom to call her up every evening tor a good-night message? He turned and went Into the hall, but, after a few minutes, re­ turned. “I'm glad you liked the show . . ." the mountaineer was saying. "No, nothing special is happening here— except that tbe ducks are plentiful. . . . Yes, I like it fine . . . Mr. Horton’s here. Wait a minute—11 guess maybe he'd like to talk to you." I The Kentuckian beckoned to Hor­ ton. and. as he surrendered the re­ ceiver. left the room. He was think­ ing with a smile of the unconscious humor with which the girl's voice had just come across the wire: "I knew that if you two met each other you would become friends.” "I reckon," said Samson, ruefully, when Horton joined him, “we'd better look around and see bow bad those fellows are hurt In there. They may need a doctor." And the two went back to find several startled servants assisting to their beds the disabled combatants, and the next morning their Inquiries elicited the informa­ tion that the gentlemen were all "able to be about, but were breakfasting In their rooms." Such a* looked from their windows that morning saw an unexpected cli­ max. when the car of Mr. Wilfred Horton drove away from the club car­ rying the man whom they had hoped to see killed and the man they had hoped, to see kill him. The two ap­ peared to be in excellent spirits and thoroughly congenial as tbe car rolled out of sighL and the gentlemen who were left behind decided that. In view of the circumstances, the "extraordi­ nary spree" of last night bad best go unadvertlaed Into ancient history. CHAPTER XII. The second year of a new order brings fewer radical changes than the first. Samson's work began to forge out of the ranks of the ordinary and to show symptoms of a quality which would some day give it distinction. Heretofore his instructors had held him rigidly to the limitations of black and white, but now they took off the bonds and permitted him the colorful delight of attempting to express him­ self from tbe palette. It was like per­ mitting a natural poet to leave prose and play with prosody. One day Adrienne looked up from a sheaf of his very creditable landscape studies to Inquire suddenly: "Samson, are you a rich man or a poor one?" He laughed. "So rich,” he told her, “that unless I can turn some of this stuff into money within a year or two I shall have to go back to hoeing corn." She nodded gravely. "Hasn’t ft occurred to you." she demanded, "that in a way you are wasting your gifts? They were talk­ ing about you the other evening—sev­ eral painters. They all said that you should be doing portraits." Tha Kentuckian railed. His mas­ ters had been telling him tho same thing. Ho had fallen in love with art through tho appeal of tho skin and ____ _ call at tho. hills. He ___ had_____ followed Its proselyting of George Lescott, who nafntMt nnlv Pnrtr&ltura painted only l.ndu-in* landscape. Portraiture seemed a less artistic form of expres­ sion. He said so. "That may all be very true," she conceded, "but you can go on with your landscapes and let your por­ traits pay the way. And," she added, "since I am very vain and moderately rich, I hereby commission you to paint me, just as soon as you learn how." Farblsh had simply dropped out Bit by bit the truth of the conspiracy had leaked, and he knew that his useful­ ness was ended and that well-lined pocketbooks would no longer opeq to his profligate demands. - Sally had started to Ichool. She had not announced that she meant to do ao,.but eacb day the people of Misery saw her old sorrel mare making its way to and from the general direction ot Stagbone college, and they smiled. No one knew bow Sally's cheeks flamed as she sat alone on Saturdays and Sundays on the rock at the back­ bone's rift. She was taking her place, morbidly sensitive and a woman of eighteen, among little spindle-shanked girls In short skirts, and the little girls were more advanced than she. But she, too. meant to have ’Turnin' "— as much of It as was necessary to sat­ isfy the lover who might never come. And yet, the "fotched-on" teachers at the “college" thought her the most voraciously ambitious pupil they had ever had, so unflaggingly did she toll, and tbe most remarkably acquisitive, bo fast did she learn. But her studies bad again been Interrupted, and Miss Grover, her teacher, riding over one day to find out why her prize scholar had deserted, met in the road an empty "jolt wagon," followed by a ragged cortege of mounted men and women, whose faces were still lugu­ brious with the effort of recent mourning. Her question elicited the information that they were returning from the "baryta*” ot the Widow Mil­ ler. • •••••• Towards the end of that year Sam­ son undertook his portrait of Adri­ enne Lescott. The work was nearing completion, but it had been agreed that the girl Herself was not to have a peep at the canvas until the pointer was ready to unveil it In a finished condition. Often, as she posed, Wil­ fred Horton idled in tbe studio with them, and often George Lescott came to criticize, and left without criticis­ ing. The girl was impatient for the day when she, too, was to see tbe pic­ ture, concerning which the three men maintained so profound a secrecy. She knew that Samson was a painter who analyzed with his brush, and that his picture would show her not only feature. and expression, but tbo msu-8 j estimate of herself. "Do you know," he said one day, coming out from behind his easel and studying her. through half-closed eyes, I "1 never really began to know you un­ with a laugh, a rather nervous laugh. "Of course not." she answered be* self. "That would be too absurd!" "Would it?" asked Samson, simply. He glanced at bls watch. “Two mio* utes up," he announced. "The modal will please resume the pose. By th* way, may I drive with you tomorrow afternoon?" . The next afternoon Samson ran up the street steps of tho Lescott house and rang tbe bell, and a few momenta later Adrienne appeared. The car waa waiting outside, and. as the girl camo down the stairs in motor coat and veil, she paused and her fingers on tho banister tightened In surprise as she looked at the man who stood below holding his hat in bls hand, with bls face upturned. The well-shaped head was no longer marred by the mana which it had formerly worn, but was close cropped, and under tbe trans­ forming influence of the change the forehead seemed bolder and higher, and to her thinking tbe strength ot the purposeful features was enhanced, and yet, had she known It, the man felt that he had for the first time sur­ rendered & point which meant an aban­ donment of something akin to prlD* dpi*. She said nothing, but as she took his hand In greeting her fingers pressed his own in handclasp mors lingering than usual | Late that evening, when Samson ro» turned to the studio, be found a mis­ sive in bls letter box, and, as he took it out, his eyes fell on tbe postmark. It was dated from Hixon, Kentucky, and, as the man slowly climbed ths stairs, he turned tbe envelope over in bls hand with a strange sense of mis* giving and premonition. The letter was written In thq cramped hand of Brother Spencer. Through Its faulty diction ran a plain­ ly discernible undernote of disapproval for Samson, though there was no word of reproof or criticism. It was plain that it was sere as a matter of cour­ tesy to one who. having proved aa apostate, scarcely merited such consld- s eratlon. It Informed him that old Spicer South had been "mighty porely," but was now better, barring tha breaking of age. Everyone was “tol­ erable." Then came the announce­ ment which the letter had been writ* ten to convey. . j (TO BJD CONTINUED.) __ Fsts of a Boom Town. Silver Mountain, once a booming min­ ing camp of Idaho for a few weeks.

"Influenced me, Drennle?" he re­ peated. "You haVe done more than that You have painted me out and painted me over." She shook her head, and In her eyes danced a light of subtle coquetry. "There ar* things I have tried to do, and failed,” she told him. His eyes showed surprlseu “Perhaps,” he apologized, “I am dense, and you may have to tell me bluntly what I am to do. But you know that you have only to tell me." For a moment she said nothing, then shook her head again. “Issue your orders," he Insisted. ”1 am waiting to ob«y.” She hesitated again, then said, slowly: “Have your hair cut It's the one uncivilised thing about you." For an Instant Samson’s face hard­ ened. "No," he said; "I don’t care to do that" “Oh. very well!” she laughed lightly. "In that event, of course, you shouldn’t do It" But her smile faded, and after a moment h* explained: "You see. It wouldn’t do."

Several years ago the "Go to Church” movement was originated to encourage people to gp to church. It gradually spread over the nation with wonderful results. Last year It was started in Nashville with the re­ sult that the attendance In the vil­ lage wgp larger than ever before. The pastors of the several churches thought it advisable to observe the day again this year and for nearly two weeks have been working hard to break the record attendance of last year. Everyone should be a regular at­ tendant at the services of the ehurch. The need is apparent and has been well Illustrated by the parable of the beautiful valley that lacked waters. This lack was supplied through the efforts of the man on the mountain feide with the help of the men in the valley. When the canals and lakes and reservoirs were well filled they thought they had a sufficient supply and left the man on the hillside to his own resources. But to their dis­ may they found that when the sup­ ply of water failed, that their great storage basins dried up; vegetation withered; flowers drooped and died, and the people in the valley were brought face to face with blight and starvation. Again they sought the help of the' man on the hillside who opened the channels of water and the parched and naked land in the valley was soon transformed into a garden of grain and roses. They learned that no matter how much water they stored it would not be enough with­ out a continual supply. Some may think that if their chil­ dren go to the Sunday School; or if the'ir wives attend one service on Sunday or if they go occasionally to some special service or funeral that will be sufficient for the whole fami­ ly and the whole year. But the truth Is we need a continual supply of the word of God and the blessings of religious services. We all are de­ pendent on Divine help. No one is able to stand alone in this day of competition and enterprise. The church is an absolute necessity in every life. There is no parallel, no substitute. Other organizations may flourish for a time and supply tem­ porarily some need of a community but blight and starvation is sure to follow. Everyone needs the contin­ ual help of the "Man on the Hillside." Every good thing in the community is dependent for jts maintenance up­ on the existence of the church. What Is the church worth to a community? Who would want a churchless village? We all will agree as to Its worth, but how many appreciate it to a sufficient degree to avail themselves of the good it brings and do their part in making the church's mission effective. It is up to the people to make the church what it ought to be and thus make the moral life of our village greater and our people happier. The church exists for humanity’s sake. It is cosmopolitan in its aim. It is not for some of the people a part of the time, but for all of the ppople all of the time. It stands tor justice to everyone. It seeks to awaken in a man the consciousness of his being something more than a slave to work and fashion, that his principal relationship reaches up­ ward to God and outward to man. What organization is there that holds up such high Ideals and promises such great rewards? The advantage to be derived from church attendance pays a return so greatly beyond the cost that it is a matter ot good business to be faith­ ful in church attendance. Every man needs the spiritual help it of­ fers to better prepare himself to serve his fellowman. The "Quiet Hour” of meditation and mind rest, free from the business worries and cares of the week, is a source of great help and inspiration. The fuller and greater life revealed in the scriptures cause one to forgive and forget. The life’ and supreme ex­ ample of the Christ softens the heart, melts bitterness and. hatred into af­ fections of loving service. The church sweetens the cup of life and fills.it to the brim with healing wa­ ters. The natural tendency to do wrong should be overcome and who unaided Is able to win? Experience tells the sad result of all such at­ tempts. But who will Relate the story of the battles fought and splen­ did victories won in the hour of trial and temptation by those who have continually fallen back on the Divine word for succor and help? To the young the church service is a benediction; to those struggling in life's conflict the Sabbath with its rest is a fount of inspiration; to the old. with life's day nearly past and Its tasks nearly done, the Bible and the House of God is one continuous source of encouragement and bless­ ing with its promise of rich reward and life more abundant. Then let all give the church its rightful place in their life and ser­ vice. Give your earnest support to the institution that brings to the community its greatest good and happiness. The Jews believed that any city whose synagogue was lower than the other buildings was in dan­ ger of destruction. Let us ail to­ gether exalt the ehurch and tbeChrist to their rightful place in our village life. If the church stands promi­ nent In our village nothing but perm­ anent good will be our habitation. Let no one stay at home Sunday. lArt every man. woman and child go to some church every Bunday and pay their tribute of respect to the One who is over all and in all, whose we are by right and whom we ought to serve.

May 14. is a modern morality play depicting the trials and temptations of student life, through symbolic characters rep­ resenting virtues, vices and condi­ tions. It is fashioned after the old English plays of which "Everyman" is the beat example and "Everywo-' man" is the well known modern type. There is place in the play for the working out of good class spirit and class effort: In the play "Everystu­ dent” wins out over bluff and good times, aided by truth and persever­ ance; success at last is his. After his graduation, however, good times, good times, In a nobler guise, re­ mains to bring happiness. He pre­ sents the time honored and famous Rip Van Winkle (drama arranged by class In regular school work) in his funny old antics. Again, good times calls in our holidays and their .pat­ rons. The whole play has a gooddramatic coloring which, while most humorous in parts, is real and sin­ cere. All patrons and friends of Nashville schools will appreciate this play­ ' Characters, Act. I.

C. met Tuesday with Mrs. Daisy Townsend to study "Lit­ erature of the South". An excellent paper written by Mrs. Clara Gott was read by Mrs. Roe. concerning Miss M. N. Murfree who writes un­ der the pen naipe of Charles Egbert Craddock stories and novela of the rural life of Tennessee. Although an invalid she has already written 25 books. One striking truth she states thus: "Nothing of any value can be gained without the .most zeal­ ous work in aid of whatever natural gifts one may possess.” Mrs. Marcia Munro gave a splen­ did paper on "Thomas Nelson Page”, the Virginia novelist. He wrote so sympathetically of Virginia people and their lives. "In Old Virginia”, that .is said they are content to ap­ pear before the world as be portrays them. "Marsh Chan” is one of the best short stories. He is now am­ bassador to Italy where he will have opportunity to gather new material. The book. "The Battle Ground”, was reviewed by Mrs. Edna Furniss who is always able to tell a story so well it is better than reading it. She said the book did not appeal to her but she did Justice to this southern story of the war. with Its tale of heroism, sacrifice, privation and aorrors. The next meeting will be next Tuesday with Mrs. Elsie Furniss. Roll call. "Experience of Mothers.” NEW UNDERTAKING ESTABLISH­ MENT.

He has purchased an exceptionally handsome hearse, undoubtedly the finest in this part of the state: it is finished in soft tints of gray outside, and in a rich mahogany in the in­ terior; equipped with rubber tires, handsome lamps, and of the latest pattern, it is an equippage of which the town may well be proud. The balance of his equipment is of the very latest and-best designs, and he is putting in a very fine line of caskets. Mr. Feighner is well known iu tne community, is a licensed em­ balmer and a competent funeral di­ rector. and will undoubtedly meet with success. REVIVAL MEETINGS. Rev. C. W. Butler of Ypsilanti.

You will have only yourself to blame if you are "talked into” buying an "unsuitable” or a "theoretical” Car. The two commonest mistakes made in buying an automobile are—First, Buying a car not suited to your needs.—Second, Buying a car that has not passed the theory stage. The first mistake—buying an “un­ suitable” car—is perhaps made even less often than the second. But for your own sake study your needs sen­ sibly, just as you study your house­ hold needs, and buy a car you can afford to enjoy—a car you will have pride in, and yet one that will not be a ‘•ghost of reproach” to your good sense. The second mistake — buying a “theoretical” car —is perhaps the sadder mistake of the two—because when you have made this mistake, you have on your hands some engi­ neer’s or designer’s untried theory, instead of a tried, known, successful car. And you have paid a price that, put in the right car, would never have been a reproach — but would have bought an automobile of real pride and joy. It is because we see these two mis­ takes being constantly made — be­ cause we see sensible people being constantly talked into these “auto­ mobile fiascos ” that we boast so much about the record of the car we sell—The Maxwell. 38,000 happy satisfied Maxwell owners are driving 38,000 handsome streamline Maxwell Cars to-day—at an up-keep cost that any man of any standing can afford, and at an original cost that is simply a practical .investment. in its Highest Form.

There must be the hearty approval and confidence of the public in the car they buy and the Car must merit it all. 26 Maxwell cars every hour of the business day. Yes, that is just what the public are ouying, and when you order a Maxwell, you get one the day you want it. Back of each Maxwell stands one of the greatest and most efficient organizations in the industry, and one strong enough financially to insure you against the purchase of an “ orphan car ’ ’ and to give you actual deliveries of a wonderful car on the day you want it. *7012 The Maxwell Company’s Guarantee of Service to Maxwell Owners ROUND TRIP VIA No other automobile is backed by a more reliable service than that guaranteed every Maxwell owner. More than 2,000 Maxwell dealers —in every part of this country—are always ready to give expert advice, to make adjustments, and to supply new parts at reasonable prices. This splendid Maxwell dealer service organization is perfected and completed by the chain of Maxwell owned and Maxwell operated Service Branches. Sixteen great Maxwell Service Stations are so located throughout the country that a Maxwell dealer can supply any part for an owner within a few hours if not in his stock. Maxwell Service is one of the great advantages enjoyed by Maxwell owners.

CAPTAIN KILLED BY SHOCK On Steamer Gulflight Bound From Port Arthur, Tex., to Rouen With Cargo of Naphtha—Veaael Towed to Port by Britiah Craft London, May 3.—The American oil­ steamer Gulfilght was torpedoed in the English channel on Saturday by a Ger­ man submarine. Her captain died of heart disease from the shock and two members of her crew of 36 were drowned. The Gulflight, a 3,202-ton ship, owned by the Gulf Refining company of Texas, was bound from Port Arthur, Tex., to Rouen with a cargo of naphtbs when she was attacked off Bishop lighthouse, in the Scilly islands. The vessel, although badly damaged, stayed afloat and towed to shore by steam drifters and beached. The rescued members of the crew were landed by a patrol boat at Scilly. Allied Ships Sunk. The French steamer Europe also was torpedoed by a submarine and sunk off the Scilly islands. The submarine ordered the crew to take to the boats and then fired several shells into 'the steamer. The ship did not sink from the effect of these, so the submarine launched a torpedo which ient her to the bottom. The crew of the Europe was picked up by a fishing smack and landed at Newlyn, Cornwall. The Europe was bound from Barry to St. Lazalre with coal. The British steamer Fulgent was sunk off Skelling Rocks, southwest of County Kerry, Ireland, in the dark early Saturday morning, also by a German submarine. The master was shot and killed and his body taken into one of the boats. Later the boat was picked up by a trawler and it* occupants landed at Kilrush. It is feared the remainder of the crew, who occupied a cecond boat which has not been found, has been lost The Fulgent was of 1,202 tons, owned by J. Westoll of Sunderland. Greek Ship Seized. The Greek steamer Fctls. from Gal­ veston and Norfolk for Rotterdam, has been taken into Blyth, England, by a British prize crew. It is alleged that she carried a cargo of contraband believed to be destined for Germany. A Copenhagen dispatch says the Swedish minister at Berlin has re­ ported by telegraph the release of nine colliers held by Germany. Only two Swedish colliers now remain in Ger­ man ports. The Gulflight is the fourth Amer­ ican steamer destroyed either by mines or submarines in the sea war zone since February 18 and the fifth Amer­ ican vessel runk In all, the William P. Frye having been sunk in the South Atlantic by the German raider Prinz Eitel Friedrich. Left U. 8. April 10. The oil tanker Gulflight belonged to the Gulf Refining company of Pitts­ burgh. She left Port Arthur, Tex., on April 10 with upward of 55,000 barrels of gasoline and was due to arrive at Rouen Sunday. She was built at Cam den. N, J., in August. 1914. Officers of the company state that her crew at the time she sailed from Port Arthur numbered at least thirty-five men.

They already thought ot him as one who had been. In that passionate rush of feeling everything that had happened since he had left Misery seemed artificial and dreamlike. He longed for the realities that were forfeited. He want­ ed to press blmself close to the great, gray shoulders of rock that broke through the greenery like giants tear­ ing off soft raiment.

He bad been telling himself that he was loyal and now he realised that he was drifting like the lotus eaters. He rose and paced the floor, with teeth and hands clenched and the sweat standing out on his forehead. His advisers had of late been urging him to go to Paris.

Within two hours he wm bound for Lucerne to cross the Italian frontier by the • slate-blue waters oi Lake Maggiore. A few weeks later Samson and Ad rlenne were standing together bj moonlight in the ruins of the Coli­ seum. The junketing about Italy had been charming, and now in that circlf of sepia softness and broken columns he looked at her and suddenly asked himself: "Just what does she jnean to you?* If he had never asked himself thal question before he knew now that 11 must some day be answered. Friend ship had been a good and seemingly a sufficient definition. Now he was nol so sure that it could remain so. Then his thoughts went back to e cabin in the hills and a girl in calico He heard a voice like the voice ot a song bird saying through tears: “I couldn't live without ye. Samson. ... I jest couldn't do hit!" For a moment he was sick of his life It seemed that there stood before him in that place of historic wraiths and memories, a girl, her eyes sad, but loyal, and without reproof. "You look,” said Adrienne, studying his countenance In the pallor of the moonlight, "as though you were see Ing ghosts." “I am.” said Samson. "Let’s go.” Adrienne had not yet seen her por trait. Samson had needed a few houn of finishing when he left New York, though it was work which could be done away from the model. So It was natural that when the party reached Paris Adrienne should soon Insist on crossing the Pont <1*Alexandre III to his studio near the “Boule Mich" for an inspection of her commissioned canvas For a while she wandered about the businesslike place, littered with the gear of the painter's craft. It was, in a way, a form of mind-reading, for Samson’s brush was the tongue ot his soul. The g»rl’s eves grew thoughtful as she saw that he still drew the leering, saturnine face of Jim Asberry. He had not outgrdwn hate, then? But she said nothing until he brought out and set on an easet her own portrait For a moment she gasped with sheer delight for the colorful mastery of the technique, and she would have been hard to please had she not been de­ lighted with the conception of her­ self mirrored in the canvas. It was a face through which the soul showed, and the soul was strong and flawless. The girl's personality radiated from the canvas—and yet— A disappointed little look crossed and clouded her eyes. She was conscious of an in­ definable catch of p&ln at her heart Samson stepped forward, and his waiting eyes, too. were disappointed. "You don't like it Drennle?" he anxiously questioned. But she smiled in answer, and declared: "I love It” He went out a few minutes later to telephone for her to Mrs. Lescott, and gave Adrienne carte blanche to browse among his portfolios and stacked can­ vases until his return. In a few min­ utes she discovered one of those ef­ forts which she called his “rebellious pictures." • ♦ These were such things as he paint­ ed. using no model except memory perhaps, not for the making of finished pictures, but merely to give outlet to his feelings; an outlet which some men might have found in talk. This particular canvas was roughly blocked in, and it was elementally simple, but each brush stroke hau been thrown against the surface with the concentrated fire and energy of a blow, except the strokes that had painted the face, and there the brush had seemed to kiss the canvas. The picture showed a barefooted girl, standing, tn barbaric simplicity of dress, In the glare of the arena, while a gaunt lion crouched eyeing her. Her head was lifted as though she were listening to faraway music. In the eyes was indomitable courage. That canvas was at once a declaration of love; and a miserere. Adrienne set it up beside her own portrait, and, as she studied the two with her chin rest­ ing on her gloved hand, her eyes cleared of questioning. Now she knew what she missed in her own more beautiful likeness. It had been paint­ ed with ail the admiration of the mind. The other had been dashed off straight from the heart—and this other Was Bally! She replaced the sketch where ahe had found it, and Samson return­ ing found her busy with little sketches of the Seine. "Drennit,” pleaded Wilfred Horton, as.the two leaned on the rail of the Mauretania, returning from Europe, “are you going to hold me off Indefinitely? I’ve served my seven years for Rachel, and thrown in some extra time. Am I no nearer the goal?" The girt looked at the oily heave of the leaden and cheerless Atlantic, and its somber tones found reflection la her eyes. She shook her head. worth it, Wilfred. Let me go. Chuck me out of your life as a little pig who can’t read her own heart; who is too utterly selfish to decide upon her own life.' •Is it”—-he put the question with foreboding—“that, after all, I .was a prophet? Have you — and South — wiped your feet on the doormat marked 'Platonic friendship?' Have you done that, Drennle F’ She looked up into his eyes. Her own were wide and honest and very full of pain. "No,” she said, "we .haven’t done that, yet. I guess we won't. . . . 1 think he’d rather stay outside, Wil­ fred. If I was sure I loved him, and that he loved ms. I’d feel like a cheat —there is the other girl to think of. . . . And, besides. I’m not sure what I want myself. . . . But I'm horribly afraid I’m going to end by losing you both.” Horton* stood silent It was tea time, and from below camo the strains of the ship’s orchestra. A few ulstermuffied passengers gloomily paced the deck. "You won’t lose us both, Drennle,” he said, steadily. "You may lose your Choice—but if you find yourself able to fall back on substitutes, I’ll be there, waiting." For once he did not meet her scru­ tiny, or know of it His own eyes were fixed on the slow swing of heavy, gray-green waters. He was smiling, but it Is as a man smiles when he con­ fronts despair and pretends that every­ thing Is quite all right The girl looked at him with a choke in her throat "Wilfred,” she said, laying her hand on his arm, 'Tm not worth worrying over. Really. I'm not If Samson South proposed to me today, I know that I should refuse him. I am not at all sure that I am the least little bit in love with him. Only, don't you see I can’t be quite sure I'm not? It would be horrible if we all made a mistake. May I have till Christmas to make up my mind for all time? I'll tell you then, dear, .If you care to wait" CHAPTER XIII. Tamarack Spicer sat on the top of a box car, swinging his legs over the side. He was clad in overalls, and in the pockets of his breeches reposed a bulging flask of red liquor, and an unbulging pay envelope. Tamarack had been "railroading” for several months this time. He had made a new record for sustained effort and industry, but now June was beckon­ ing him to the mountains with vaga­ bond yearnings for freedom and lei­ sure. Many things had Invited his soul. Almost four years bad passed since Samson had left the mountains, and in four years a woman can change her mind. Bally might, when they met on the road, greet him once more as kins­ man and agree to forget his faulty method of courtship. This time he would be more diplomatic. Yesterday he had gone to the boss and "called for his time." Today he was paid off, and a free lance. As he reflected on these matters a fellow-trainman came along the top of the car and sat down at Tamarack's side. This brakeman bad also been recruited from the mountains, though from another section—over toward the Virginia line. "Bo yer qulttln'F' observed the newccmer. Spicer nodded. "Goin’ back thar on Misery?" Again Tamarack answered with a jerk of his head. "I’ve been layln' off ter tell ye some­ thin’, Tam’rack." "Cut her loose." laid over in Hixon last week, an’ some fellers that used ’er know my. mother’s folks took me down In the cellar ot Hollman’s store, an’ give me some licker." ' "What of hltr "They was talkin’ 'bout you." "What did they say?” "I seen that they was enemies of yours, an* they wasn't in no good hu­ mor, so, when they axed me ef I knowed ye, I lowed I didn’t know nothin* good about ya. I had ter cuss ye oat, or git in trouble myself." Tamarack cursed the whole Hollman tribe, and his companion went on: “Jim Asberry was thar. He lowed they'd found out thet you'd done shot Purvy thet time, an’ be said”—the brakeman paused to add emphasis to his conclusion—"thet the next time ye come home, he lowed ter git ye plumb chore.” Tamarack scowled. "Much obleeged," he replied. At Hixon Tamarack Spicer strolled along the street toward the court­ house. He wished to be seen. So long as It was broad daylight and ho dis­ played no hostility, he knew he was safe—and he had plana. . Standing before the Hollman store were Jim Asberry and several com­ panions. They greeted Tamarack af­ fably and he paused to talk. "Ridin* over ter Misery r Inquired Asberry. “ 'Lowed I moot as waH." "Mind ef I rides with ye os fur ss Jesse's place?" "Plumb glad ter havo company," drawled Tamarack. They chatted of many things, and traveled slowly, but, when they camo i to those narrows where they could not ride stirrup to stirrup each jockeyed for the rear position, and the man who found himself forced into the lead turned In his saddle and talked back ever his shoulder, with wary, though seemingly careless, eyes. Each knew the other was bent on his murder, on, but shortly he hitched his horse In the concealment of a hollow, walled with huge rocks, and disappeared into the laurel. “He began climbing, in a crouched position, bringing each foot down noiselessly and pausing often to listen. Jim Asberry had not been outwardly armed when he left Spicer. But, soon, the brakeman's delicately attuned ears caught a sound that made him He fiat in the lee of a great log, where he was mosksd in clumps of flowering rho­ dodendron. Presently Asberry passed him, also walking cautiously, but hur­ riedly, and cradling a Winchester rifle in the hollow of his arm. Then Tama­ rack knew that Asberry was taking 'this cut to head him off and waylay him in the gorge a mile away by road but a short distance only over the hill. Spicer held bls heavy revolver cocked in his hand, but it was too near the Purvy house to risk a shot. He waited a moment, and then, rising, went on noiselessly with a snarling grin, stalk­ ing the man who was stalking him. Asberry found a place at the foot of .a huge pine where the undergrowth would cloak him. Twenty yards below ran the creek-bed road, returning from its long horseshoe deviation. When he bad taken his position bls faded butternut clothing matched the earth as Inconspicuously (as a quail matches dead leaves, and he settled himself to wait Slowly and with Infinite cau­ tion his intended victim stole down, guarding each step, until he was In short and certain range, but. Instead of being at the front he came from the back. He, also, lay flat on his stomach and raised the already cocked pistol. He steadied it in a two-handed grip against a tree trunk and trained If with deliberate care on a point to the left of the other man's spine Just below the shoulder blades. Then he pulled the trigger! He did not go down to Inspect his work. It was not necessary. The Instantaneous fashion with which the head of the ambuscader settled forward on its face told him all he wanted to know. He slipped back to his horse, mounted and rode fast to the house of Bplcer South, demanding asylum. The next day came word' that if Tamarack'-Spicer would surrender and stand trial In a court dominated by the Hollmans the truce would con­ tinue. Otherwise the "war was on." The Souths flung back this message: "Come and git him.” • But Hollman and Purvy, hypocriti­ cally clamoring for the sanctity of the law, made no effort to come and "git him.” They knew that Spicer South’s house was now a fortress, prepared for "Tam’rack, Ye’ve Got to Go.” siege. They knew that every trail thither was picketed. Also, they knew a better way. This time they had the color of the law on their side. The circuit judge, through the sheriff, asked tor troops and troops came. Their tents dotted the river bank be­ low the Hixon bridge. A uetail un­ der a white flag went out alter Tama? rack Spicer. The militia captain in command, who feared neither feudist nor death, was courteously received. He had brains, and he assured them that he acted under orders which could not be disobeyed. Unless they surrendered the prisoner, gatllng guns would follow. If necessary they would. be dragged behind ox teams. Many militiamen might be killed, but for each of them the state had another. If Spicer would surrender, the officer would guarantee him personal protec­ tion, and. If it seemed necessary, a change of venue would secure him trial in another circuit For hours the clan deliberated. For the soldiers they felt no enmity. For the young cap­ tain they felt aa Instinctive liking. He was a man. ____ Old Spicer South, restored to an echo of his former robustness by the call of action, gave the clan's verdict "Hit haln’t ths cole we’re skeered ot Ef this boy goes ter town he won’t never git into no co'te. He’ll be murdered.” ’ The officer held out hie hand. "As man to man,"- he said, "I pledge you my word that no one shall take him except by process of law. I'm not working for the Hollmans or the Pur▼ya. 1 know their breed." For a space old South looked into the soldier’s eyes and the soldier looked back. "Ill take yore handshake on thet bargain," said the mountaineer, grave­ ly. "Tam’rack," ho added, in a votes of finality, -ya’ve got ter go." The officer had meant what ho said. Ho inarched his prisoner into Hixon at the center of a hollow square, with muskets at the ready. And yet. as the boy passed into the courthouse yard, with a soldier robbing elbows on each side, a cleanly aimed shot sounded and army hats circling him, Tamarack fell and died. That afternoon one of Hollman's henchmen was found lying in the road with his lifeless face in the water of the creek. The next day, as old Spicer South stood at the door of his cabin, a rifle barked from the hillside, and he fell, shot through the left shoulder by a bullet intended for his heart. All this while the troops were helplessly camped at Hixon. They had power and inclination to go out and get moo, but there was no man to get. The Hollmans bad’used the soldiers as far as they wished; they had mads them pull the chestnuts out of ths fire and Tamarack Spicer out of his stronghold. They now refused to swear out additional warrants. A detail had rushed into Hollman's store aa instant after the shot which killed Tamarack was fired. Except for a woman buying a card of buttons and a fair-haired clerk waiting on her, they found the building empty. Back beyond, the hills were impene­ trable. and answered no questions. Old Spicer South would ten years ago have put a bandage on his wound and gone about his business, but now be tossed under his patchwork quilt, and Brother Spencer expressed grave doubts for his recovery. With his counsel unavailable Wile McCager, by common consent, assumed something like the powers of a regent and took upon himself the duties to which Sam­ son should have succeeded. That a Hollman should have been able to elude the pickets and penetrate the heart of South territory to Splcef South’s cabin was both astounding and alarming. The war was on without question now, and there must be coun­ cil. Wile McCager had sent out a sum­ mons for the family heads to meet that afternoon at hit> milt It was Sat# urday—"mill day"—and in accordance with ancient custom the lanes v.ould be more traveled than usual. Those meowbo came by the waged road afforded" no unusual spectacle* tor behind each saddle sagged a sack of grain. Their faces bore no stamp of unwonted excitement, but every man balanced a rifle across his pom­ mel. None the less, their purpose was grim, and their talk when they had gathered was to the point Old McCager, himself sorely pet* plexed, voiced the sentiment that the others had been too courteous to ex­ press. With Spicer South bed-ridden and Samson a renegade, they had nd adequate leader. McCager was a solid man of intrepid courage and honesty* but grinding grist was his vocation, not strategy and tactics. The enem/ had such masters of intrigue as Purvy and Judge Hollman. Then a lean sorrel mare came jog* glng Into view, switching her fly-bitted tall, and on the mare's back, urging him with a long, leafy switch, sat t woman. Behind her sagged the twd loaded ends of a corn sack. She was lithe and slim, and her violet eyes were profoundly serious, and her UpS were as resolutely set as Joan of Arc’S might have been, for Sally Miller had come only ostensibly to have her corn ground to meal. She had really come to speak for the absent chief, and she knew that she would be met with derl‘ sion. The years had sobered the girl, but her beauty had increased, though It was now a chastened type, which gave her a strange and rather exalted refinement of expression. Wile McCager came to the mill door as she rode up and lifted the sack from her horse. "Howdy, SallyT* he greeted. "Tol’able, thank ye,” said Sally. *Txfl goln’ ter get off.” As she entered the great half-lighted room, where the mill stones creaked on their cumbersome shafts, the hum of discussion sank to silence. The girl nodded to the mountaineers gath» ered In conclave, then, turning to ths miller, she announced: “I'm going to send for Samson." 3 (TO BB CONTINUED.) To Be Lived Through.

I have appreciated for many years the loyalty and friendship of the Re­ publicans and many Democratic voters in Barry County, and the Fourth District and well understand their expressed kindly feeling and willingness to support me for the nomination for Congress if I so de­ sired. I have served eight years In rail­ road commissioner and commission work and I should have in that (line acquired information enabling ' me to render valuable service In that capacity. I have been appointed for another six year term. 1 liKe the work very much and were 1 to leave it at this time and be successful in my nomi­ nation and election to Congress it must be conceded that the change would be for what some would con­ sider a position of greater honor rath­ er than an opportunity to render the best service. In my present position 1 am one pf three whose decisions directly af­ fect the social and financial welfare of the entire state rather than six counties and as an experienced com­ missioner I believe I can render bet­ ter service than as an inexperienced congressman and that such service will prove of greater value, to the people of Michigan. I desire here to thank most sin­ cerely my many friends throughout the District and especially those of my home county of Barry and be­ lieve I can best show that apprecia­ tion by choosing that line of service in which I may prove the most use­ ful. I am therefore, Very truly yourq, C. L. Glasgow. ble mothers, like the mother of Moses, Samuel, James. John ,the Baptist, and Mary, the mother' of our Lord. Back of every great man is a great mother. She requested us to read the last chapter of Pro­ verbs. . Mrs. Chester Smith gave a paper on the Puritan mothers. She told of their journey to this country, of the hardships they had to endure to serve God as they thought best. , Their lives were guided by the “golden rule." They never forgot to give thanks even if they only had a crust to eat. “Revolutionary Mothers" was a very Interesting paper given by Mrs. Kellogg. She thought the mothers who stayed by the homes, tilled the soil, spun the Cloth and cared for the children*were as brave as the fathers Mrs. Mattle Quick told us about the Twentieth Centurymothers. With our modern devices to do house work and so many conveniences we do not have any more time for moth­ ering, but one thing we do is to keep young with our children. A mother at forty is young now. where she used to be called old. "What shall we tell our children?” —Given by Mrs. Gertrude Palmer was very instructive. No mother should be too modest to tell her child the sacred story about itself while it is young In the home nest: A vocal duet by Myrtle Caley and Daisy Townsend was very much en­ joyed. Adjourned to meet tn one week, May 18, with Mrs. Grace. Klelnhans. WHO W ILL BE THE MAN? As will be seen by bls straightfor­ ward announcement in-this issue of The News, Railroad Commissioner Glasgow has definitely decided that he will not be a candidate for con­ gress from the fourth district in the next campaign, giving as his reason that he thinks he Is of more value where he Is than he would be as a new man In the halls of congress. His announcement Is a manly one, and is well worth reading. This will leave the fight In all probability a three-cornered one. Mr. Hamilton will undoubtedly again be a" candidate. Judge Lewis L. Thomp­ son of Allegan, who was a contender for the nomination last year, will probably be again in the field, while Barry county will have a strong contender In John C. Ketcham, at present master of the state grange. Ixivers of a merry fight are looking forward to, the next campaign as promising a fine entertainment. PAST MASTER'S NIGHT.

HASTINGS WINS WEIRD GAME. In a fantastic exhibition, in which some wonderfully bad and some lit­ tle excellent fielding was put on dis­ play by the local boya, Nashville lost a ball game to the Hastings high school team at Riverside park Monday afternoon. The game had been postponed from Friday on ac­ count of weather conditions, and it is too bad it couldn't have been post­ poned until after the close of the sea­ son. Hastings accumulated four runs in the first Inning without a hit, there being a number of two-base wild throws made to first. After that the boys braced up and showed specimens of regular base ball, but the spells were brief. The final result was 11 to 2. and the next game will be still worse unless the home boys get up enough base ball enthusiasm to get out and practice a little in the in­ terim. IVY LODGE ENTERTAINS. A very enjoyable evening was spent at Castle Hall Tuesday eve­ ning. when Ivy lodge. K. of P., had as their guests about fifty members of Barry lodge of Hastings. The vis­ itors brought a candidate, on whom the Ideal degree team conferred the rank of Knigbt. the work winning Lhe admiration of all present. Fol­ lowing the meeting, a lunch and smoker was held in the Masonic hall, and Toastmaster W. A. Quick called upon Judge Clement Smith, W. W. Potter. J. C. Ketcham, and others for short speeches.

But when the same merchant whose money till we have helped to fill sends out of town for his job printing we cannot but pity the isolation of the poor old Golden Rule. Some people make their money in this community, enjoy life in the community, educate their children at the expense of the community, and then buy their goods from merchants who not in or of the community. It is some tug at the golden tail. There are some people who wont the earth for what theysell apd then expect to receive some of their own purchases for less than coat. And the Golden Rule Is helpless—forgotten — kicked Into the discard. A few phople make a practice of parading their own virtues and sneering nt the frailties of their-neighbors. • Some want to hog everything in sight, though the less fortu­ nate experience the gnawing pangs of hunger. Occasionally we see a sanctimonious countenance in church while the mind within Is devising means of skinning others out of their hard earned dollars. < The Golden Rule? Why. the poor, decrepit old rule is strangling three hundred and aixty-flve days in the year. Its coat of gold has turned to rust, and the once sparkling waterc. of Its -purity are stagnant from disuse. The Golden Rule? • Can you point to a soul in all this wide world who in all things does unto others ns he would have them do unto him? Possibly we. toe, are twisting the tail of the Golden Rule when we publish this article, for we too often forget. ’ ‘ And yet we repeat, the Golden Rule Is a good rule. We may not walk steadfastly in accordance with Its teachings, but we may at least practice a portion of that which we preach. We may accord to others a slight degree ot that which we de­ mand for ourselves. W« may even trail along in the shadow of the Golden Rule, though our steps be faltering and our limbs over weary. For we are but human, and no human being of teday Is perfect. Yes. the tail of the Golden Rule receives many twists, yet the tall that never knows disjointment. • The Baptist society .contemplate !

These owners have driven their Maxwells up bill and down hill—over all kinds of country roads and over city streets, everywhere that four wheels will go. Most of these 38,000 Maxwells have been rained on, snowed on, and put to every kind of a rough and tum­ ble test that time and use can give a car—and that’s what we mean by the “Acid Test.” If you have any neighbors among these 38,000 happy owners, ask them to tell you all about their experience with their Maxwells. If you don’t happen to know any neighbors who own Maxwells, here are a few facts to think about—things to consider—then you can come in and see this “Wonder Car” and add up these facts for yourself. But don’t forget this—the Maxwell we will show you is an exact duplicate of these 38,000 tried and true Maxwells that have stood the rough and tumble “Acid Test.” And Here Are Some Vital Points to Think Of Satisfaction and Service in a Nutshell Tn the automobile owner satisfaction and ser­ vice means a car of beauty, refinement and com­ fort combined.

This splendid Maxwell dealer service organization is perfected and completed by the chain of Maxwell owned and Maxwell operated Service Branches.

The present library building was erected in 1883-1883. The number of students Ln attendance then was fourteen hundred as against sixtyfive hundred at present, and the fa­ culties were one-sixth their present membership. With the rapid growth of tbe University the library facilities soon became inadequate. It bas been estimated that a million dollars would not replace the library collection of books. Yet for a num­ ber of years past this valuable asset bas not been properly safeguarded against Loss by fire, nor has tt been possible to administer It to the best advantage. Not less than seventyfive thousand volumes have come to the University as a result of private benefaction*. Present conditions, however, have tended to discourage further donations, especially of val­ uable private collections. With a modern and fire-proof library build­ ing, the University has reason to ex­ pect that several gifts of great val­ ue will be added to its collection in the near future. Moreover, conven­ iences to facilitate the dlstributioa and assembling of books used for stu­ dy purpose* win saw students much time a*d annoyance, which is quite out of the question with the present crowded condition of the building.

CORTRIGHT’S WHERE IT PAYS TO PAY CASH. TRY A NEWS WANT AD DAIRYMEN Look back to our price of the first two weeks in April. 29 l-4c was the average; not bad where we are getting all the profits. We were 1-4 cent above the top price adver­ tised for that period. What did we do to pay that much? We sold our butter on the right market, and gave our patrons the benefit of our ability to market our products. That along with perfect knowledge of the creamery business enables us to pay just a little more than any One else. If you are not a patron of ours you are losing money in your dairy. We know it If we would count the extra price we pay for sweet cream, our price for the first two weeks in April would have been 30c but you can’t all sell sweet cream so we give you the average price for sour cream alone. Come with us and get what is coming to you. THAT IS, top notch prices and a square deal. NASHVILLE COMMISSION HOUSE R. J. WADE, Mgr. Offica with A. E. Kidder Phen* 79 CRYSTAL CREAMERY CO.

The litigation of T. C, Downing vs. M. B. Brooks, et al. which has been banging fire in the courts for many months, came to an end this week when Judge John S. McDonald, who sat for Judge Clement Smith in the case, rendered a decision dismiss­ ing Downing's bill of complaint, with the costs to be taxed to Down­ ing. The property involved In the suit was the big orchard In the east part of to.wn now owned by Birney Bros., and'which was sold to them by Mrs. Ida A. Brooks, now deceased, wife of M. B. Brooks. Downing al­ leged fraud in the transaction, but the court holds that the transaction was legitimate in every particular. The Tull text of the decision, which will prove of much interest to Nash­ ville people, will appear In The News next week. DAVID WILKINSON DEAD. David Wilkinson, one of the pio­ neers of this vicinity and one of its most highly respected citizens, passed away at his home two miles north of the village Sunday morning. He was 68 years of age. and bad been ill for some time, so that his death was not unexpected. An obit­ uary will appear in the next issue of The News. The funeral was held from the East Castleton U. B. church yester­ day morning at eleven o'clock, con­ ducted by Rev. Lyons, a former pastor and the remains were interred at the Hosmer cemetery. INSIDE. LOOKING OUT. It happened on the south side, They keep chickens. Mother went ... out to get the eggs and put the bid­ dies to bed. She went in the coop and slid the door shut behind her. The roller caught and she couldn’t get the door open. She called to daughter, but daughter was in the house and did not hear the signal of distress. She didn’t want to call loud enough to make the neighbors hear, because she knew they would laugh at her. So she patiently wait­ ed until dad gut home from work, because he always goes out the first thing to see how the chickens are getting along. Bui this particular evening he was tired and didn't. Finally daughter, getting hungry, went to look for mother, and found her locked up with the chickens. All’s well than ends well. Nope, we won’t tell any names. THE CHAUTAUQUA.

Plans are being made to make this year’s reunion of the alumni of the Nashville schools the greatest and most worth-while of any reunion the association has ever held. The reunion will be held on Friday. June 18, and the proposition is to "make a day of it." The annual banquet will be held at the Auditorium in the evening, but there will be a reunion all day long, as many of the mem­ bers are planning to be here from distant homes to put in the day and evening with old school friends. A base ball game will be played at Riverside park In the afternoon be­ tween two teams picked from among the "stars of former days", and there, is no doubt but that it will be some game. The reunion proper, with the banquet accompaniment, will start at 6:30 tn the evening, and will last for some time, no limit having been set. But one thing Is assured, there will be no dull mdments, and there will be plenty to eat, and It will be well worth the money. Alton J. Hager, the "Poo Bah” of Bellevue, will be the toastmaster at the ban­ quet. and no better choice could have been made. We understand he is also in active training for the base ball game. Rutherford B. Hayes Tteche, tbe silent man of Kalamo. is president of the association, and while his vocal Infirmities will not permit him to be heard to any ex­ tent during the festivities, he will endeavor to make his presence felt, and he is bending all his energies now toward making the coming gathering the biggest and best the association has ever held. The Invitations are being sent out this week, and it is hoped that each member will make prompt response and will pledge their attendance at the big round-up If it is at all pos­ sible.

TRY A NEWS WANT AD ■TO OUR' PATRONS and FRIENDS It might be of interest to you to know that we paid our patrons on an average of 30.7 cents for the entire year of 1914, while the average New York price was only 29.9 cents—our price nearly 1 cent above the New York average. That shows that we are putting out butter that demands a much better price than the average. It also will show you, if you will investigate, that we are in the lead as far as out­ put is concerned, and that is what enables us to pay the very high price we do. Our average price for April, 1915, was 29} cents. Look around you and see who is paying more than that We want your cream; you need our high prices. Let’s trade. CRYSTAL CREAMERY CO.

Mr. Miller grew to man­ hood in thia township and was well known here. He leaves two broth­ ers, Charles and Frank, and one sla­ ter, Mrs. Jesse Guy, to mourn their Elbert Myers, who for the last ten or twelve years has lived near Blan­ chard, died at that place last week. Mr. Myers, who was familiarly known a* “Dell’’, was a resident of the town­ ship for a number of years and was well known here. Edward Brown of Carlton town­ ship died at his home last week. Mr. Brown will be remembered as living in the village several years ago when his son, Clyde ran a meat market at this place. V. C. Roosa. accompanied by his son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Vern Monasmitb, went to Gosh­ en, Indiana. Saturday, where they will stay until July 1. when they will move to Lake Odessa, wherje Mr. Roosa has purchased a home. We received a visit last week from a dirty thieving gang of gypsies. Before coming here they called on A. Warner, who being alone in his store and physically unable to help him­ self, made a raid on his goods and also on his cash register. Had he telephoned the facts here in advance, we could have given them the same kind of a “dose’’ we' did tbe gang that raised cain at Frank Densmore’s seven or eight years ago, when Mr. and Mrs. Densmore were not at home. In that instance they left 225.00 of their elegant cash here, and until last week we have been free of them. They did some small sniping here but they were so closely watched that they could not pull off one of their favorite stunts. . The village council at their last meeting decided to raise tor all purposes the sum of 21600.00. While this is 2600. more than last year they took into consideration the purchasIng of the fire engine and grading on some streets that was put over from last year on account of the lack of funds. There will also be more sidewalks constructed this year than last. Joseph Reesor, Chas, Helse and F. Wagner have been added to the list of “Buicks”, while we understand F. Eckardt has made the “Reo” his choice. Two substantial dwelling houses are now being constructed on the “Cree” addition. Word was received last Thursday that Marion Shores died at his home in Nashville on that date, aged about 70 years. Mr. Shores has lived in this township and the adjolningtownship of Castleton the greater part of his life. Our village council has adopted tbe familiar slogan "Safety First", and other improvements . afterward. At the council meeting held May 12, it was decided to purchase at least one mounted chemical engine and per­ haps two. A thorough Investigation of several machines will be made so that at the June meeting the council can act intelligently.

When you buy a car, you have to take so much purely on the manu­ facturer's say-so that it's enlightening when you can lay your finger on DEFINITE details that show HOW the car Is built and use them as indi­ cations of the quality that runs thro’ the entire car. Here ARE differ­ ences—DEFINITE details that you can see with your own eyes—details of design that any engineer will teU you are important Take the list with you when you go to look at cars—and judge the car by how closely it lives up to what you can get in a Studebaker at 3985. No other FOUR on the market uses a Rear Axle as good as the Stude­ baker FULL-floating Rear Axle—■and most of them use the earlier types of axles—not so safe—not so accessible. Only four other FOURS use radius rods—and of them two have very LIGHT rods that take up only part of the driving strains. They cost 390 to 3210 more than the Studebaker FOUR. Other Fours drive thro* the springs. Whenever the springs have to take up any of the driving thrusts at all, it is necessary to have one end firmly fastened to the frame. Hence, It Is impossible to use spring-shackles at both ends as in the Studebaker FOUR. Used at both ends, spring-shackles fake up the end-play and make the car VERY much easier-riding. Only two other FOURS have them. They cost up to 3210 more than the Studebaker FOUR. Five of the Fours that are •'said" to compete with the Studebaker FOUR use the obsolete magneto system of ignition, although they cost up to 1210 more than the Studebaker FOUR. Not one of the other Fours on the market has brakes relatively as large as those on this Studebaker FOUR. Studebaker is using’ brakes larger than those on most cars weighing half a ton more. Only five of the other cars use a brake equalizer—and the only brake equalizer that com­ pares with the Studebaker Brake Equalizer is on a 35,000 car. Not one of the Fours running 3300 more in price than this Studebak­ er FOUR uses as many Timken Bearings as Studebaker does. Studebak­ er is Timken’s best customer. Uses Timken Bearings at EVERY point of hardest wear. Not one of the Fours at'any pride can match the finish of this Stude­ baker FOUR for the simple reason that Studebaker has more than 63 years’ experience in finishing fine vehicles of every nature. This Stude­ baker FOUR at 3985 goes thro* no less than 20 operations and spends 60 days in the paint-room. and not one of them has them ALL except this Studebaker Studebaker ROADSTER, - - » 983 Studebaker FOUR, - - . 983 Studebaker LIGHT SIX, - - 1883 Studebaker SIX, "-passenger, 1430 F.

Kalamazoo.—Like the explosion of a shrapnel wa* tbe crash of a ball of lightning which fell in the heart of a residence section of Galesburg during an electric storm.

Wayne.—Wayne was the terminal for a thrilling chase when an unidentified man stole a horse from the farm of Frank George of Addison Switch George discovered the theft shortly after it took place and gave chase in an automobile. At Wayne he picked up Marshal Charles Dosdy When the pair overhauled the stranger, Doudy commanded* him to halt By way of response the thief crouched ability to see money at long range was heraled for miles around. Once he had caught sight of a dollar he never rested until be had annexed it unto himself, and when thus annexed it were us easy to separate the two as it would have been to dig the Panama canal with a barn shovel. This old geeser near­ ----- -----ly always walked on the soles of his shoe* to keep the heels from running over, and he wore celluloid collar* to save laundry bills. He also wore all he whiskers he oould grow to stave of barber bills and to make neckties unnecessary. One day. however, while he was on his way to foreclose a mortgage on tbe home of a blind woman with six small children, he was taken ill. They hauled him into a hospital be­ cause be was to ill to protest, and af­ ter carefully diagnosing the case the physicians said that by keeping him perfectly quiet he might live another week. But they were mistaken. One of the nurses had told him what it was costing him to stay in the hos­ pital and he died to save further ex­ penses. That night his debtors held a Jubilee convention and hts money was bequeathed to a nephew whom the old geezer had never seen. Two months later, when the estate was settled, the nephew exchanged a big chunk of the old geezer's kale for a limousine and he and a certain chorus girl would ride out to the cemetery, eat peanuts while sitting upon the old man's grave and medi­ tate upon how wearisome life is. MORAL—A miser is a-fine thing to have for an uncle. People are queer creatures, aren’t they? The most severe critics of a newspaper are the people for whom the newspaper does the most fornhe least amount. For instance, we send the preacher the paper free, we print all his announcements and church notices gratis, we do every­ thing we can in the paper to give him and his church free publicity, and it is all as free as salvation. We do his Job printing at cost or below, and wait -until Kingdom Come for our pay. Yet when he performs a marriage ceremony does he come in or call us up and tell us about it? When he conducts a funeral does he hand us in a death notice for the paper and thus help us out on our strenuous life of trying to give all the news? Yes, he does—not. We get it if we hustle around and find him and make him dig it up for us. We boost all the year 'round for our schools, we give column after col­ umn of valuable space to help them thrive, and we pay our full share of school taxes in cash, the same as the rest of you do. yet they are perfect­ ly willing to pay everybody else for everything they do for them, while they seem to think the printer should not have pay even for advertising or Job work, or at the very best only half pay. any they kick on that. The general opinion seems to be that the printer can eat printer's Ink and thrive on it. The merchant gets his pay for what he sells, the opera house man gets bls, the supply man gets his, tbe Janitor gets his. the preacher gets his, the teacher gets his; everybody gets his but the printer, and he gets his—in the neck. And yet they all seen* to think the printer should run his newspaper for their particular benefit and be thankful to get "something to fill up his columns," whether he gets something to fill his stomach or not. But let him make one little mis­ take in a church or school notice, and he gets something else, right away quick, and while he may eat It. you can't make him like it. Blest if it ain’t a queer world, and folks are the queerest thing in it.—Atchtnson Globe. ’ ELBERT BEDE HAYS. Most of us have taken a post grad­ uate course in giving advice. Anyone with any kind of a fad makqs himself more or less .of a nuisance. Apparently some men marry in or­ der to get a woman to work for them without a salary. One nice thing about all these re­ form movements Is that we emerge from them all without any great in­ jury. • At first it seems qui’e a treat to a man to hand hl* wife money but the novelty i* not long in wearing off. During good times a man squan­ ders his money and then during hard times blames society for tbe in­ equalities of life. The groom may not be very con­ spicuous at the wedding but he at least has the satisfaction of knowing that without him there could be no bride. Engagements are becoming more expensive since automobile* became so popular and. there ain't near the same chance to get your money's worth. When you are about to compliment yourself for exhibiting firmness at the proper moment, doesn't it make you mad to have some one accuse you of being wilfully obstinate? NOTICE TO PATRONS.

This is the car that 38,000 happy owners have given the “rough and tumble” acid test of real automobile owners’ wear J An automobile on the road for 18 months in constant, every-day use by an owner ceases to be a designer’s theory. It becomes—either a great automobile success; Or it becomes—a great automobile failure. Multiply one model by 38,000 and give each one of these 38,000 auto­ mobiles day in and day out rough and tumble road wear, and if this car stands up and delivers, it has be­ come one of the rare great auto­ mobile successes. And that is the Maxwell success today—that is exactly the “Acid Test” that the Maxwell has passed through, and that is why the Maxwell is the most talked about automobile that is built today. The Maxwell automobile is today one of the very few great automobile successes the world has ever known. Read This List of Expensive Features. PURE STREAMLINE BODY A large, roomy, beautiful body, fitted with deep, comfortable upholstering, ample leg room, adjustable front seat and the best fourteencoat. hand-painted and striped finish. All Maxwell bodies are constructed of pressed steel, mounted on a steel-channel sectioned frame, offering the greatest possible strength with minimum weight.

THE POWERFUL MAXWELL MOTOR The most powerful, durable motor of its sixe made. Ample power to negotiate any rood. mud. sand or hill—always at your com­ mand.

TRY A NEWS WANT AD ■TO OUR- PATRONS and FRIENDS It might be of interest to you to know that we paid our patrons on an average of 30.7 cents for the entire year of 1914, while the average New York price was only 29.9 cents—our price nearly 1 cent above the New York average. That shows that we are putting out butter that demands a much better price than the average. It also will show you, if you will investigate, that we are in the lead as far as out­ put is concerned, and that is what enables us to pay the very high price we do. Our average price for April, 1915, was 29) cents. Look around you and see who is paying more than that. We want your cream; you need our high prices. Let’s trade. CRYSTAL CREAMERY CO.

NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, JUNE 3, 1915 VOLUME XLII The Farmer’s Best Is Never in the history of this country was more doing to help the farmer and never was he doing more to help himself. Agriculture has been put upon a bus­ iness basis. The farmer has his cap­ ital, surplus and undivided profits, just as his banker and merchant do, and he is able to enjoy his accumula­ tions better than ever before. Many of our farmer friends have al­ ready attained; many more will, if they stick to business methods, and as long as they do they can count on the best help this bank knows how to give.

Postoffice Pharmacy C. H. Brown, Proprietor LLOYD C. FEIGHNER. Lloyd C. Feighner, of Litchfield, Michigan, died at the home of his brother, Len W. Feighner, on Sher­ man street, Saturday, May 29, of after an illness of ant that these, their latter days, may be their best days, that they may continue to love this country prepar­ atory to loving the country beyond. Not forgeting that this country which they fought to preserve is our coun­ try, that their flag is our flag, and that if need be, like them, we too will rise and rail, to the standard of peace which we are • to defend with our prayers, our ballots, our laws, our manhood, our women, and if need sljall rise, with our lives. For that flag, which is composed of the Stars, under which the north went to war, and the Bars, under which the south fought, stands more than the colors of any nation on the face of the earth for democracy, for the aristocracy of Intellect and charac­ ter and soul power, for opportuni­ ty. for brotherhood, aye. for the cross of Jesus Christ."

FORTY YEARS AGO. Itesaa Taken From the New* of Frt- Every town has Its men of wealth—its prominent citizens—peo­ ple who are looked upon as the community leaders. \ And as they lead, so will the community be. If you have accumulated a competency and are enjoying that life of ease to which you are entitled, It Is time for you to think of your community—of your children—of your neighbor’s little ones. Nashville needs your strength, your assistance. Get down and push. The generation that is passing away started you on the road to affluence-—pushed you along life's pathway—headed you for that goal which you now enjoy. They gave you a push—and your own energy, and persever­ ance, and determination did the rest Now you are on top and a new generation is springing up, and they have an ambition to achieve. But their goal is a long way up. and the road is steep, and there are many obstacles to be overcome before your children and your neighbor's children may hope to reach the goal of their ambition. The community standard Ln vogue when you were a boy was doubtless high for those times, but the same standard Is hopeless today—a relic of the past, an Impossibility of the future. To maintain Its relative position in the world Nashville must prosper, and grow, and expand. And your children are confronted with these changing condi­ tions. To hold your town down to the early standard is like cutting the throat of your faithful dog, or casting your bank book into the flames. But advancing its materia interests is like casting the loaves and fishes to the hungry multitudes. You are successful—the past has enriched you of its wealth— the future is one. of peace, for you. But what of the children of today—what of those growing to manhood and womanhood only to be forced to meet the serious problems of a few years hence? What of the future of your own descendents? A retarded commercial spl -it, a throttled community growth, all portend a struggle with adversity in the years to come. Other men of means and prominence will act. and other com­ munities will forge to the front and prosper—and if Nashville simply remains stationary it will Boon be subsisting on the crumbs that others cast aside. What are you going to do about it—you men of means and the ability to act? ' > Are you going to get down and push? Are you going to assist your children, as your fathers assisted you? « Are you going to give your town a shove to the front—a boost that will mean prosperity for the future? And all good citizens should be boosters—in fact, the really de­ sirable citizens are boosters. This world is moving at a rapid pace, and America leads thevan. Do you want to see your children marching well up to the front —in the position of honor—or would you prefer to see them am­ bling along in the dust of more progressive people? The great opportunity for commercial and community advance­ ment is here now—is looking for a word of encouragement from you—is waiting for your action. But by the time your sons reach man’s estate opportunity will have marched on—and into the waiting *embrace of other com­ munities. That is, unless you act now, and to some purpose. One hand may not raise a stone, but many hands make light work of the heaviest burdens. There are many hands in your community—hands capable of performing wonderful feats in community building. Perhaps yours are two of those hands. But what are the many hands doing? Are they pushing—shoving—boosting to the front? Or are they pulling—dragging—retarding the growth of your community, and your people? What are your hands doing, brother?

The Little Giant Dayton cultivator with balance 'frame and the medium size wheels creates a quick move­ ment and allows the machine to dodge further than the large wheeled type. The spindle and frame is supported on a ball which makes a very easily shifting axle. The gangs are shifted with the same movement transmitted to the wheels, causing a positive transfer action . of the entire machine. A lock is also arranged to make the axle and gangs rigid.

And that's i)ie num­ ber of American men and women, who are publicly praising Doan's Kidney Pills for relief from back­ ache, kidney and bladder ills. They say it to friends. They tell it in the home papers. Nashville people are in this chorus. Here's a Nashville case. J. E. Surine, retired farmer, Gregg and Phillips streets, Nashville, says: “I think camping out in the army was what brought on kidney trouble. The kidney secretions passed too frequently and were pain­ ful. I had- pains in my back and through my loins. I suffered from rheumatic twinges and was lame and sore across my back. Doan’s Kidney Pills, procured at Von W. Furniss’ drug store, relieved me of the trouble. This was some time ago and I have had very little cause for complaint since.” The above statement must carry conviction to tbe mind of every reader. Don't simply ask for a kid­ ney remedy—ask dislnctly for Doan's Kidney Pills, the same that Mr. Surine had—the remedy backed by borne testimony. 50c all stores.

The Lusitania, too, tocording to reports at hand here, un­ doubtedly had cannen aboard wbick were mounted under decks and masked. To direct the particular attention ot the American government to the fact that the British admiralty, in a confidential instruction Issued tn February, 1915, recommended its mercantile shipping C; only to seek protection under neuI flags and distinguishing marks, but also while thus disguised, tb attack German submarines by ramming. As a special incitation to merchantmen t<» destroy submarines, the British gov­ ernment also offered high prizes and has already paid such rewards. । Says Liner Carried War Material. “The imperial government in view Of these facts indublflebly known to it. Is unable to regard British merchant­ men in tbe zone of naval operations' specified by the admiralty staff of the German navy as ‘undefended.’ German commanders consequently are no longer able to observe the customary regulations of the prize law, which they before always followed. “Finally, the imperial government must point out particularly that the 'Lusitania on its last trip, as on earlier occasions, carried Canadian troops and war material, including no less than 5.400 cases of ammunition intended for tbe destruction of brave German soldiers who are fulfilling their duty with self-sacrifice and devotion in the fatherland’s service. • “The German government believes it was acting in justified self-defense In seeking with all the means of war­ fare at its disposition to protect the lives of its soldiers by destroying am­ munition for the enemy. Put* Blame on Ship Owners. , “The British shipping company must have been aware of the danger to which tbe passengers aboard the Lusi­ tania were exposed under these condi­ tions. The company in embarking them, notwithstanding this, attempted deliberately to use the lives of Ameri­ can citizens as protection for ammu­ nition aboard and acted .against the clear provisions of the American law, whtch expressly prohibits tbe forward­ ing of passengers on ships carrying ammunition and provides a penalty therefor. The company therefore is wantonly guilty of the death of so many passengMa. ’There can be no doubt, according to the deflnit ■ report of the subma­ rine’s commander, which is further confirmed by all information, that the quick sinking of the Lusitania is pri­ marily attributable to the explosion of the ammunition shipment caused by a torpedo. The Lusitania's passengers would otherwise, in all human prob­ ability, have been saved. “The Imperial government consider® the above mentioned facta important enough to recommend them to the at­ tentive examination of the American government Withholds Final Decision. “The imperial government, while withholding its final decision on the demands advanced in connection with tbe sinking of tbe Lusitania until re­ ceipt of an answer fron the American government feels impelled, in conclu­ sion, to recall here and now that it took cognizance with satisfaction of the mediatory proposals submitted by the United States government to Bet* lin and London as a basis for modus vivendl for conducting the maritime warfare betwen Germany and Great Britain. The Imperial government by its readiness to enter upon a discus­ sion of these proposals, then demon­ strated its good intentions In ample fashion.

With Illustrations from Photographs of Scenes in the Play CHAPTER XV The Honorable Abe Smithers was not the regular juage ot the circuit which numbered Hixon among its county seats. The elected incumbent was ill, and Smithers bad been named as his pro-tem. successor. Callomb climbed to the second otory of the frame bank building and pounded loud­ ly on a door, which bore the boldlytyped shingle: “Asa Smithers, Attorney-at-Law." The temporary judge admitted a visitor in uniform, whose countenance was stormy with indignant protest The judge himself was placid and smil­ ing. The lawyer, who was for the time being exalted to the bench, hoped to ascend it more permanently by the votes of the Hollman faction, since only Hollman votes were counted. He was a young man of powerful physique with a face ruggedly strong and hoo- merely pointed to the door. The cap­ tain turned on his heel and stalked out of the place, and the judge came down the steps and crossed the street to the courthouse. Five minute* later ho turned to the shirt-sleeved man who was leaning on the bench and said ta his most judicial voice: "Mr. Sheriff, open court." The next day the mail carrier brought ta a note for the temporary Judge. His honor read it at rec«s and hastened cross to Hollman’s Mam­ moth Department Store. There, ta council with bls masters, he asked in­ structions. Thia was the note: "The Hon. Asa Smithers. "Str: I arrived in thio county yes­ terday, and am prepared, if called as a.witness, to give to the grand jury full and true particulars of the murder of Jesse Purvy and the killing of Aaron Hollis.

"Shall I have him come?" he 1inqulred. Hollman threw the letter down <on his desk with a burst of blasphemy: “Have him come?" he echoed. "Hell and damnation, no I What do we want him to come here and spill the milk for? When we get ready, we'll indict him. Then, let your damned soldiers go after him—as a criminal, not a witness. After that, we’ll continue this case until these outsiders go away, and we can operate to suit ourselves. We don’t fall for Samson South's trick*. No, sir; you never got that letter! It miscarried.

The Farmer’s Best Is Never in the history of this country was more doing to help the farmer and never was he doing more to help himself. Agriculture has been put upon a bus­ iness basis. The farmer has his cap­ ital, surplus and undivided profits, just as his banker and merchant do, and he is able to enjoy his accumula­ tions better than ever before. Many of our farmer friends have al­ ready attained; many more will, if they stick to business methods, and as long as they do they can count on the best help this bank knows how to give.

The members of the Men's Bible class of the Litchfield Raptlst Son­ day school, appreciating the worth and character of our departed friend and class president. Lloyd C. Feighner, d eel re to pay a tribute to his memory. We feel bls departure as a personar loss; and know that to the community as a whole It i* a still greater loss. He was a most splendid type of public spirited citizen, ready to lend a strong support to every enterprize for the community welfare. He was a true friend of every boy in town; and many families In need and distress have found In him a willlqg tr.'end and ready helper. Thjus who knew him best will «jver prize bin memory most highly for his delightful personality, for " ' ‘his ' strong convictions, his splendid courage, his loyalty, his sense of justice, his sympathetic nature, his love for his fellow men. and for his free-hearted, open:handed generosi­ ty. . We. therefore, desire to extend to the family of our departed friend our sincere and deepest sympathy. And we commend his spirit to the All-Wise Father who alone can read the hearts of men and judge their motives and purposes. NUMBER 43 LOCAL NEWS. Book* of fiction in the popular 50® edition.

Consequently the number of prisoners taken was small in comparison with the magnitude of the victory. The Little Giant Dayton cultivator with balance 'frame and the medium size wheels creates a quick move-' went and allows the machine to dodge further than the large wheeled type. The spindle and frame is supported on a ball which makes a very easily shifting axle. The gangs are shifted with the same movement transmitted to the wheels, causing a positive transfer action of the entire machine. A lock is also arranged to make the axle and gangs rigid.

June 8—A death duel be­ tween a British monoplane and a Ge­ nian Zeppelin was fought over a mile In the air just outside of Brussels early In the morning. The battle, which is regarded as one of the most thrilling In all the history of war­ fare, came to an end when the Ger­ man monster of the sky was sent crashing upon a convent, 6,000 feet below, ■ crumpled and burning wreck. Thirty-two men were killed. The fight in the clouds followed the nineteenth Zeppelin raid on the Brit­ ish coast Incendiary and explosive bombs were dropped on towns on tho eastern coast, killing five persons aad Injuring forty others. Two fires also were caused. i Pursued by Monoplane. One of the Invading dirigibles was pursued by a monoplane In charge of Flight-Sublieutenant -Warneford. R. N, a Canadian. Just before daybreak the British craft overhauled the larger air­ ship and the battle begun. Knowing he had little chance to com­ bat the larger guns carried by tha giant Zeppelin. Lieutenant Warneford. by masterful maneuvering, kept out ot range and gained^ a position of about six hundred1, feet above tho dirigible. Then the^monoplane, Just as the morning sun came out of tho east, dropped six bombs, apparently releasing them simultaneously. | Each explosive hit the big gas bag, and the German machine, with thirtytwo on board, swayed for an instant, then shot downward to the ground at a tremendous rate and almost crashed through the roof of a convent. Aviator Has Narrow Escape. But the victorious monoplane al­ most met with tho same fate. Bo great was the force of the explosion that the smaller craft was tossed up­ ward over one hundred feet and turned a gigantic somersault. The monoplane turned upside down and began to drop. Just In time the aviator, pulling him­ self out of a dangerous "loop the loop* with a damaged mnohlne, righted him­ self and landed safely on foreign soil He was able to make repairs imme­ diately. however, and returned safely to the hangar. KAISER GIVES PEACE TERMS Dutch Envoy Arrives In Washington With German Demands for t End of War. Washington, Jtme 8.—Germany, through a special Dutch envoy, is ash­ ing President Wilson to transmit pro­ posed terms of peace to the allied powers. The envoy is Jonkheer van Gheel Gildermelster. a thember of the court of Queen Wilhelmina of the Nether* lands and connected with banking cir­ cles In Holland. He came to Washington on Friday equipped with the peace terms of Ger­ many, which that country has been publishing to the world for months as follows: “Evacuation of Belgium and North­ ern France. "Reconstitution of the kingdom of Poland. "Freedom of the seas. "Cession of a strip of Alsace and Lorraine to France In recognition of German sovereignty over Luxem­ bourg. j “Acquisition of’African colonies by Germany. "Restoration to Germany of all colonies held by that country prior to the war, with the exception of Kaio-chau, which is to be disposed at as Japan sees fit." Bo tar as official action is concerned it is not believed here that President Wilson would be inclined to take It. ■Ince he has received no official com­ munication as to Germany’s desire for peace on the terms stated.

Then, again, silence settled on the town, to remain for five minutes ma broken. The sun glared mercilessly on clay streets, now as empty as a cen> etery. A single horse Incautiously hitched at the side of the courthouse switched Its tall against the assaults of the flies. Otherwise, there was do outward sign of life. Then, Callomb’s newly ^organized force of ragamuffin sol* filers clattered down the street at double time. For a moment or two after they came Into sight only the massed uniforms caught the eyes ot the Intrenched Hollmans, and aa alarmed murmur broke from the courte house. They had seen no troops do train, or pitch camp. These men had sprung from the earth as startlingly ae Jason's crop of dragon’s teeth. But, when the command rouuded the ahoub der of a protecting wall to await fur* ther orders, the raggted stride of thcii marching and the all-too-obvlou* bean Ing of the mountaineer proclaimed them native amateurs. The murmur turned to a howl of derision and chai, lenge. They were nothing more noi less than Souths, masquerading 1b the uniforms of soldiers. “What orders?" inquired CeUpmli briefly, joining Samson «. the store. “Demand surrender once more—Chew take the courthouse and jail," was the short reply. Callomb himself went forward the flag of truce. He shouted his men. sage and a bearded man came to the courthouse door. “Tell ‘eyi.'' he said without dancy, "thet we're all here.

The Hollmans, like rats in a trap, grimly held on. realizing that it was to be a siege. On the following morning a detachment of "F” company arrived* dragging two gatllng guns.

They meant to fight: their way out and leave as many hos­ tile dead as possible in their wake. Their one chance now was to scatter before the machine guns came into ao* tlon. They came like a flood of hu­ man lava and their guns were nevee silent, as they bore down on the barri­ cades, where tbe single outnumbered company seemed insufficient to hold them. But the new militiamen, look­ ing for reassurance not so much to Callomb as to the granlte-like face ot Bamson South, rallied and rose with ® yell to meet them on bayonet and smoking muzzle. The rush wavered, fell back, desperately rallied, then broke In scattered remnants for tha shelter of the building. Old Jake Hollman fell neai the door; and his grandson, rushing out, picked up his fallen rifle and sent farewell defiance from it as he, too, thre both armo and dropped. Then a white flag wavered at a dow and, ar. the newly arrived troops halted in the street, the noise died sud­ denly to quiet. »Samson went out to meet a man who opened the door and said shortly: "We lays down."

There Is nothing more Irritating to the people of a small town than the air of superiority that people from larger towns have to­ wards them and their village. It is hard to say just what prompts the city man to feel greater than the villager, hut he alipost invaria­ bly does, and what makes it wj-se. shows 1J in his actions. It Is the weakness of city people, this belief of theirs that coun­ try people are back numbers, The man from a city concern pays the country business man a vlijt and shows plain!, that he con­ siders the little merchant a vup small potato; but if he were wise enough to realize the truth of Jheir respective businesses, he would know that the back-number merchant, as he looks upon him. is laying by each year more than tledty chap is drawing as a hired man from a company that could find a thousand like him in a day s lime. The narrow-brained lectu er drops Into the small town, and at the beginning of his talk, mentions tha he has changed his subject, “for fear the one announced would be over the heads of his audi­ ence,” and then proceeds to ramble along for a couple of hours with stale stories and disconnected ideas, boring his auditors half to death. ' The Chautauqua entertainer, until he has had a good deal of experi­ ence; the traveling salesman, up to the time he becomes of some val­ ue to his bouse; the transient ^sitor, on a chance business or pleas­ ure trip; the young city emplojje, before he lekrns the lessons of the relation of capital to business, wherever it is employed—all of them make the same mistake of misjudging the capacity, the Intelli­ gence and the character of country people. If there is such a thing as superiority between city and coun­ try folks the latter have the best opportunity .of securing it. But as people, there is no difference between those who live In cities and those who live in the country. They all read the same newspapers, the sama magazine* and the same books; they hear the same lec­ turers, and see the same theatrical performances; they attend the same high schools and graduate from the.same colleges and univer­ sities; they take the sama trips, visit the same vacation resorts, and make as many excursions abroad; they riije in Pullmans as often, and pay their bills as regularly; and when everything is counted, It Is hard tc point out any difference between them, except th«t the country people have the advantage of freedom from the life in throngs, and from the scramble for a livelihood with great num­ bers contesting for a share. We have no contempt or criticism for those who prefer to live In a city, but we do object to their attitude or scorn for tho doings of those who Hve in the country or in small towns. There is no basis for their feeling of superiority and, -to a person with a proper understanding of the relations of things, it l» nonsensical and uncall­ ed-for. u : -■ SPECIAL SALE Fine Line of ON New Rugs OLJeSimeon runeral Director SUCCESSOR TO LENTZ BROS.

Wash., comes word that the Dollar Brewery building, lo­ cated on the fort grounds, is being torn down to make way for a paper mill. Tbe North Yakima brewery is to be connected with a fruit preserv­ ing and fruit canning factory, and will also make grape Juice, vinegar and other fruit extracts. Thp manager of this brewery is not only reconciled to but is enthusiastic over tbe change. Thousands of tons of fruit go to waste every year In Washington and Ore­ gon. and, he says, a great industry can be built up in the packing and running business which will bring great pros­ perity to these states. SENTIMENT AGAINST LIQUOR. In England, as In other warring countries, there Is a very rapidly grow­ ing sentiment against the drink traf­ fic.

There are additional considerations, however, which are very important to the depositor, for example, the quality of the service rendered by the bank; and this bank’s aim is to render the most efficient service possible to all customers. An incident of this service is the privilege of all clients to confer freely with the officers on matters of vital interest to their business. An additional advantage to the depositor is the interest paid. 4 per cent, compounded quar­ terly. Next quarter begins July 1 to July 5, inclusive.

It was his custom to enri|(« his object ta conversation, permitting her to change position, talk, drink tea. flirt, or gesture as she would, while she was unaware, and before she began to wonder why he did net bogln. to have managed tbe exposure of some dozen plates, from one or two of which he was pretty sure to achieve a triumph of art and naturalness. But, at the mercy of his obsession, this method was impossible today. Hall was too busy making up hls mind, and could not dp two things st once. “You're not paying a bit of attention to me,” she pouted. Mrs. Royalton, babyish, was a picture for a cynic. But I{,all was too engrossed in his own thoughts. He caught her with an unllfted finger, cried "There!" and slipped in a plate. "The fact is, I am a bit worried today." he confessed. “Just look a bit over that way. That’s right! Fine!” He deftly pressed the bulb. She went up to him and patted hls arm. “Oh. you poor dear man! Oh, I wish I could help him out!" "Ob. no. I’m afraid you cant help me," he said Irritably. “I wish to heaven you could. Now look up!" he commanded. Then he dived under the focusing cloth, and emerged to say, “M’s partly you that I’m worrying about, though, Rena." “About me? Not" Mrs. Royalton was delighted. “Yes, 1 am, really!" He went up to her and adjusted her jabot Her eyes went off at him like a double-barreled shotgun ta an explo­ sion of coquetry. "I suppose you tell that to every woman you know!" He was ta for it, now. “Nonsense! It's true, Rena." She opened her eyes still wider. “What ta the world do you mean?" She was hungry for more. “Walt till I get another picture."

INSURE AGAINST THEM ——--------- — ■■——— —------------------------ —--------- The Cost of Insurance in This Company is So Small That No Property Owner Can Afford to be Without it. . All that it Costs You is a policy fee of $1.00 and an advance assessment of 20 Cents On Each $100 In­ sured. A policy for $1,000 would therefore Only Cost You $3.00, and if you meet with loss you will get your money up to the face of your policy. This is the Oldest, Largest and Strongest Wind­ storm Insurance Co. in Michigan, and one of the very largest and strongest in the world. We have been do­ ing business for over 30 years; we have paid out hun­ dreds ot thousands of dollars in Losses, and We Have Paid Every Loss Fully and Promptly. Back of Every Policy is a membership of about 60,000, and an assess­ able capital of One Hundred and Twenty Millions of Dollars. A policy in this company is therefore as. Safe and Sound as a Government Bond. This company is growing taster today than ever before, because people all over Michigan Know that it is most careful and con­ servative in its management and honorable in its set­ tlements. That’s why we have grown from 159 mem­ bers and $163,710 insurance in 1885 to 60,000 mem­ bers and $120,000,000 insurance in 1915.

When a man Is the batt for too many jokee he begins to feel that some one Is making a goat of him. Oftentimes a man thinks a woman loves him when she is only doing it to make some other woman jealous. The person who dies without ask­ ing to have his sins forgiven is, of course, in grave danger of going to the hot place. After a man gets married he gets :peevish about his wife wanting to ispend money the way he did before he got married. ' A woman may not know her own mind and yet her hubby would not ,get an inkling of the fact from tbe way she expresses it to him.

At Chicago's 500­ mile Derby, June 26th, it defeated all other American entries, finishing third, in 5 hrs., 11 min., 50:23 sec. —an average of 95.32 miles per hour—5 miles per hour faster than the world’s record established at Brooklands, England. ’ -—— । j At Sioux City, July 3rd, the same Maxwell easily led all competitors in the 500-mile event. At Omaha, July 4th, it again won, averaging 91.07 miles per hour, ard leading a representative field by more than ten miles. Tom Orr, in another Maxwell, made a new record in a time trial for five miles. His mark was 3 minutes flat, clipping eleven and three-quarters seconds of the former mark, held for over three years by Caleb Bragg. .

There is no locality or section of the state that is exempt from the visits of these awful des­ troyers. They are just as apt to sweep down into the valleys, as one did last year, when it thunder­ ed down into the valley of the Grand River and completely wiped out the little town of Petrieville, is Eaton County, which nestled on its banks. The people of that little town thought that because they were located in a valley and had never been visited by a Cyclone that they never would be banned, and that if a cyclone should come it would 'Jump over them.” For that reason not a single person there carried a cent of insurance against Cyclones and Windstorms. But EVERY BUILDING in the little town was COMPLETELY WRECKED. Cyclones absolutely know no law, «.nd really seem to take special delight in violating all human probability. No locality is immune - from their visits. It would cost you but very little to have us carry the risk on your property and then if a Tornado or Windstorm visits your locality, as it is very liable to do, your interests are protected.

"In the dry-versus-wet campaign In 1910 in Lansing Mr. Scott fought for moral* and economic*. Nevertheless the campaign did not please all of Lansing's business men. They thought that a dry town Would lose business to wet towns near by. So. two year* later, Lansing went wet again. “This gave everybody a wonderful chance to compare a dry Lansing with a wet Lansing, commercially. "First, as for the cost of running the government, it was soon found that a wet Lansing had to spend a good deal. of money supporting Its wet citizens. One of many proofs was this: the cost of feeding the prisoners in the county jail during the two years while Lan­ sing was dry had been >5,600, while during the two ensuing years of wet­ ness the cost of feeding them (at the same rate per person) was >11,300. Quite a difference for a town of 40,000. “Second, as tor business Itself, scores of merchants were converted to the proposition that the competition of saloons in nearby wet towns would not be half so injurious to them as the competition of saloons on Lan­ sing's own streets. Their experiences maJ bc summarized into the Jtatement of a butcher who remarked merely that when the town was dry he could collect his back bills, and when it was wet he couldn't. ’’In the last dry-versue-wet campaign in Lansing tbe merchants did not rally to the support of the flowing bowl at all. They turned to the overflowing pay envelope and the paid-up ac­ counts. The issue discussed was pros­ perity. and the majority for going to it sober was 1.200. "The efficiency of the factory is at least 10 per cent higher dry than wet, according to Mr. Scott ’’And a similar result is shown in the cost figures furnished to Everybody's Magazine by Mr. C E. Bement, geoera! manager of another company. In a dry Lansing—and for no reason except dryness and greater sobriety and energy—the cost of making engines by this concern has gone down 70 cents per horse power."

Suddenly she sat up and looked round toward the office. She was keenly alive again, immediately. If love made her stupid and sluggish, bate could revive her. Rosamund Gale! The sight of her stung Flodie like a whip. Here she was again, now, of all times, when everything was askew, Rosamund Gale, the professional model, Rosamund the beautiful. Rosa­ mund the arrogant, the spoiled! Flo­ die disliked her, from her hair to her heels, disliked her name, her man­ ners, her reputation, and, most of all, her photographs. Hall Bonlstelle used her often for hls commercial pictures which he sold for advertisements, for magazine covers,-for art supplements. "Spring”—Miss Gale In damp cheese­ cloth with apple blossoms; "The Sufragette"—Miss Gale in tailormade suit, gesticulating; and so on—Flodie al­ ways slapped the prints angrily with an ifritated "Choo!” before she put them away. She would have been glad to slap Rosamund. Hall posed her, ar­ ranged draperies, touched her hair, moved her hands—all exquisite agony for Flodie. "Bay, where’s Hall?" Rosamund made a picture of herself in the door­ way. Golden fair, highly colored, pic­ turesque. even voluptuous, always in striking original costumes daringly “artistic,” Rosamund,* with all her dimples, her curls, her "lines,” and her strange colors let Flodie have the full disconcerting effect of her beauty. She had tbe air of one who Is quite used to being stared at and admired. Flodie rose, her face set. "Mr. Bonlstelle is busy. Miss Gale." she said, and walked toward the office, as if to brush the visitor back. Rosamund, however, would recog­ nize no mere menial; she swept into the studio as if she owned the place. "AU right. I'll hang round a while till he’s free. Say, Miss Fisher, fish me out a couple of those last poses, will you? 1 want to give one to a gentle­ man friend. Here--take this boa out there and bang It up. while you're go­ ing, d'you mind?” "Oh. certainly!" said Flodie. took the boa and—an apparent accident— dropped It. Rosamund made an angry gesture. “Oh. pardon me. I'm so care­ less." said Flodie. Then carrying It artfully, so that a full foot of it dragged along the floor, she marched out of the studio, chin up. Rosamund looked about for a ciga­ rette. and found a box on a tabouret. "Oh. Miss Fisher!" she sang, "bring me a. match, will you?" Then she yawned, and threw herself lazily on the couch. She began to whistle. Flodie. returning, noticed that Rosa­ mund showed too much silk stocking, also that one stocking bad begun to "run.” She noticed that Rosamund's shirtwaist was not quite fresh, noticed that her nails, though highly polished, were not absolutely—well—chaste. One heel was a bit run over; her moonstone ring needed cleaning; lace, part real and part Imitation; eyebrows lengthened a little with the pencil; tiny rip in her glove. There was noth­ ing an ordinary man would have seen, nothing that would have hurt, for him. the whole effect, even had he seen it; but Flodie saw and damned and said no word. "Here are the matches, Miss Gale. 1'11 look up the prints this afternoon, when I have more time.” “Oh, thanks. Have a cig?” Rosa­ mund held them up impertinently. "Oh, don’t you smoke?" Very sarcas­ tic was Rosamund's tone. "No, you don’t look it, exactly." She laughed easily, confident of her own superior appearance. Flodie’s Hpa grew white; It would not take much more to make her cry. “Oh, I’d hardly expect you to under^ stand,” she managed to say, and turned to go. “Ob, I understand you all right, I guess. Bay, what are all those fancy evergreen wreaths doing out in the of­ fice, anyway?” She was blowing rings very prettily. "Oh, Mr. Bonlstelle Is going to have a party tonight." “Really? I’ll have to ask him about that” Bhe examined her finger nails. “I believe I'll come." “I'm sorry, but the Invitations were all sent out over a week ago. Miss Gale." "Mine must have been addressed wrong." "1 don't think I ever make that kind of a, mistake." "No," said Rosamund deliberately, “the mistake you make is In supposing that you run this place.” Flodie eyed her. "Well, you set me such a good example, you know, Miss Gale—really—" , The door opened, and Hall came out of the dark room blinking. -Hello, Halil How’s the boy?” said fearful, as the voices reached her ears. Hall’s face lighted as be saw Rosa­ mund. Despite defects of detail, Rosa-’ mund, so nonchalantly posed, so fair and flashing, animate with youth and confidence, was, as ever, a picture in which he rejoiced. She had none of Carolyn’s severe, clean-cut boyishness, none of tbe fullness of Mrs. Royalton’s aristocratic maturity. She was a wom­ an that women would always shun, and men fight for, love—and abandon. Hall looked at her, and her beauty sank deep into him. A golden tendril of hair in front of her ear caught hls glance; and thence to the saucy frolic­ some dimple in her cheek, the little uplifted corner of her delicate mouth, her white even teeth, the straight line of her nose, her finely-drawn eye­ brows, to her violet-blue eyes, his quick glance traveled reveling. He did not speak till: ’’By jove. I’d like to take you in that pose!’’ She, of course, immediately changed It to prove her lack of vanity, but fell into another as artful.. Well she knew her trade. “Oh, don’t talk shop all the time,” she said. "Tri just calling I’ve been posing for three hours with Deerfield, and I’m al! in. For heaven’s sake let Say. Hall, how about this party to­ night? You're not trying to cut me out, are you?” She went up to him, took him by the two lapels of bis coat, showed her teeth, and with her eyes, dared him to touch her. He ran bis hand through bls hair. "By jove," he replied slowly, "didn't ^ou lnvlta(l<m? Miss Fisher mus( naveforgotten it." She made a little gesture of re­ proach. “Oh, of course, If you didn’t want tne—you know. Hall, 1 never butt In. Never mind!” Pouting prettily. she turned away. "Why, of course I want you to come!” What else could Hall say? But indeed, looking upon her, be meant it now. "Say, you’re devilish pretty, did you know It? I’ve never seen you look so well!’’ Rosamund needed no more of an in­ vitation. "Well,” she said comfortably, “if you really want me. I’ll promise to make some of that smart bunch of yours look like washwomen and that’s no myth, either. Say, Hall, I’ve got a new dress I'm dying to have you seesmart aa pepper! It's some rag. be­ lieve me! Can 1 go the limit?" She circled her corsage, indicating a dar­ ingly iowcut neck. He laughed and nodded. "Oh. you can get away with anything in the way of clothes. By jove. you'd look all right in jumper and overalls.” "Good Idea! Let's try Lt some time! Queen of the Bricklayers.” She struck a graceful attitude. "Lord, you are pretty!” Hall said meditatively, watching her. She gave him a look, caught a new expression on hls face, and proceeded to work It up. Her first step was to say reflectively, as she cast down her golden lashes, "Say, Hall, I don’t know —I guess I'd better not come tonight, though, after all. 1 don’t believe you put something Into her blue eyes that made them burn with tenderness. . Hall drew her gently toward him, and whispered: ’ Come over here, and I’ll tell you." She hesitated a second, then permit­ ted a closer contact, arranging It so that she could look up at him dream­ ily. "Well, what?" Now her eyes went down. Her fingers worked nerv­ ously. Very fine work, for that sort of a girl. His arm tightened about her, ho drew her head still nearer hls. One in­ stant she protested mutely, then, with a sigh she shut her eyes and shivered. Hall kissed her once, twice—thrice. She clutched his hand tightly. When she did raise her lids. It was to look at him with big, pleading, won­ dering eyes. There were tears in them—almost. "What do you want to kiss me for, Hall?" He kissed her again. "Why shouldn't I want to?" . The time had come. She jumped to her feet "Hall, I’m going!. 1 can’t ever come here again. You've spoiled everything? It's only fun for you, but—but I—" she choked a sob—"but I can’t play at it, that way!” She turned and walked to the window. “Oh. I’m sorry—really.’’ Hall walked toward her again. “I didn't mean—’’ "Oh. 1 care too much, I'm afraid,” she sobbed, and sat down mournfully, refusing to look al him. "You mean — Rosamund I” He stopped, bit bis lip and looked at her keenly. Rosamund could not be awakward or ridiculous. The dedalian gods had granted her the superb gift of grace. She sat in a limp, dejected but perfectly graceful attitude, a picture of grief ।and wounded pride. A keener man would have looked for more aban­ don tn her woe, a touch of the gro­ tesqueness of despair, something of convincing intensity. Perhaps Hall 'I’ve Got to Get Ma'» Content First, himself, at any atber time, when his mind was free, might have had a sus­ picion that all was not genuine. But now he saw only a woman who loved him tenderly, and on whose emotion he had carelessly played. A wave of tenderness for her swept over him— regret for his having touched her keen nerve; but It was colored, also, with tbe pride of the male tn hls con­ quest The chase had already excited him. She was there, beautiful and fond, his victim—conquered by hls force of personality. Try as be might to subdue this baseness, his egotism “Of course 1 want you, Rosamund!" rose triumphant over his sympathy. He went up to her and tried to take her band. "Do come—please I” • Then, with the thought, a lightning "No.” she drew away from him pet­ flashed in hls brain. Here was the tishly. "I'm not coming. I've decided.” thing to do!

"Now, to be won, affectionate, a beauty whom Rosamund, see here!” This time he he could be proud to exhibit as bls wife. Mrs, Royalton might give him prestige, Introduce him to a smart set, present him, as her dower, with influ­ ence and position; but where would she Le beside tho compelling beauty of Rosamund Gale? Carolyn, perhaps, waa better fitted to be his mate—she, too, was of the socially elect, and she had youth. Youth? Had not Rosa­ mund the full fragrance of Ito charms? All this in a whirling instant—then with a swift rush, he bad her In his embrace. "Rosamund, dear Rosamund!” be ex­ claimed softly, "I did mean It—I want you, dear! Let me love you!" How careful be was to be honest! "I want you—tor my wife, Rosamund! I must have you!” Ho held her tight and close; be kissed her more and more Slowly, slowly, she lifted her blue eyes to bls. 'Really, Hall? Reallyr Smiling through her tears, she nestled "Then you do really love me, Rosa­ mund?" Hall asked, after a minute of demonstration. "Oh, Hall!" She ran her fingers through hie hair.

It was two o'clock in the afternoon. Flodie was crying. Seated at her desk, her bills littered, her account books in disorder, her head was down on her arms, In an attitude of dismal aban­ don. She — did- not weep, the cried. Hall Bonlstelle married—and not to her! Married to whom? Ah, that was the worst of it If Flodie had known the Identity of her rival her sorrow might have, before now, been transmuted Into anger. Would Mrs. Royalton, or Carolyn Dallys become Mrs. Bonlstelle? Or, worst of all, would the wedding ring be worn by Rosamund Gale? Flodie didn't know, Hall didn’t know. Even Rosamund didn’t know herself. Hence Flodie’s tears, wet and heavy, splashing, trick­ ling. soaking the dark blue blotter of Flodie’s desk. ' At two-ten sundry sounds, translat­ ed by Flodie’s Intimate knowledge of Hall Boaiatelle’s ways, indicated bls approach. She sat hastily down at the typewriter and began to print off this interesting message: “Quiz Jack; thy frowns vex G. D. Plumb.” Interesting mainly because, a con­ coction of Flodie’s debutante days at the typewriter, it contained every known letter of the alphabet Now it served to focus her mind on her fin­ gers, and hide her face from scrutiny. When Hall came in. she had copied the statement nine times, and seemed too busy tor speech. “Bay, I’m going out Flo!” be an- (TO BE CONTINUED.) , ! Wanted a Change.

Hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of property is destroyed every year by lightning. The farmer is the principal loser. There is a rea­ son. Lightning seldom strikes in a city because the multitude of wire, metal roofs* and smokestacks, steel buildings, etc., are a safety valve on electrical conditions and few bolts ever discharge. Out in the country there is nothing to equalize tbe electrical conditions of tbe al- and it accumulates until- it goes to earth with • crash, usually through tbe most conspicuous conductor availa­ ble—a tree, a barn, or a wire fence. Statistics show that far more barns are struck than houses, and that almost every building properly rodded is proof against being dam­ aged by a stroke. Barns are usually larger and higher than the houses and conduct the electric shock from the clouds to the earth. The nature of the contents make destruction by certain before anything fire almost * can be saved.

According to au­ thorities at the hospital, there is some doubt as to whether or not the killing was accidental it was re­ ported that Rlppltnger was walking tn the path of the train and turned his back on the engine. Whether or not he did not know of the approach of the train Is not known. Tbe dead man was a brother of John Ripplinger, 421 McClellan avenue, Detroit Ann Arbor.—A headless body, be­ lieved to be that of a wanderer named Roy Miller, thirty-five, was found on the tracks near the Stone bridge at Whitmore lake. Two trains bad passed over the body before ft was removed. The headless body was found by a small boy who immediate­ ly ran for aid. While he was gone another train passed over tbe body, severing both legs and an arm. No marks of identification were found on the body. A blank application for membership in the Order of Owls, signed Roy Clark of Howell, and a loaded .32 caliber revolver were the oily articles in the dead man's pock­ ets. One of the persons who viewed the body before it was taken to the morgue here stated that he believed it to be that of Miller, who was not well known at Whitmore lake and who seemed to have no permanent place of abode.

A rustic bridge wUh a frail railing, a charming young lady resting upon it, a creak, a splash and Minna Graves uttered a shriek and sank beneath the surface of the brook. A lithe, carelessly-dressed figure, that of a young man coming up the bridge approach, a shout of interest and alarm and as he plunged boidly Into the swirling current, Minna came up choked, blinded and frantic. "Don’t struggle,” spoke gentle but resolute tones in her ear, so confi­ dence-inspiring that Minqa obeyed orders and came ashore dripping, flushing at the ridiculous figure she made. Her rescuer warded off her, ex­ press ions of fervent gratitude with a light laugh over their mutual predica­ ment. and she grew coherent enough to Indicate that a park-like place in the near distance was her home. Rolfe Ditson conducted her to Its open gateway, solicitously made sure that she was able to get to the house unaided, derided the idea that he might catch cold from bis wet gar­ ments and went his way after an in­ vitation to call and meet her people. Rolfe Ditson swung on bls way with brightened* eye, for he worshiped beauty and goodness. Ab to Minna, she could not get that strong Intel­ lectual face out of her mind readily. His first call led to a second. These two were fast approaching a state of mutual love. Minna saw In him a handsome, wellbred gentlema/i. Her father and mother rather liked his direct, yet unobstruslve ways. Not so Harold Graves. This son and brother had a chum he bad tried to thrust upon the attentions of Minna. His sister dis­ liked him intensely. When Rolfe ap­ peared upon the scene the rejected suitor scented a rival. Thenceforward Dally Thought.

Perhaps there was some dark plot agsinst Ditson, she reflected. Her brother and bls chum, she felt assured, were equal Lo that. She wrote a brief note to Rolfe, addressed to his hotel in the next town, warn­ ing him that enemies were seeking to get him into trouble. Rolfe did not get the note for ho was away—with the smugglers. In truth and verity!

Now here was a chin that was lifted naturally, with none of Rosamund Gale's affectation of superiority. Caro­ lyn Dallys was sure of herself. It was much easier to fool with her than to fool her. Her eyebrows were arched whimsically over her high-bred aquiline nose; her eyes always held a humor“Oh, how d’you do! Thank you for telephoning me. Miss Fisher.

Secretaries Garrison and Daniels also will be absent until about Tuesday. Only One Threat .The only - suggestion of threat or menace to the Germans in the note Is In the last paragraph, and It Is be­ lieved changes were made In it Just before It was put on the cables. This paragraph says: "Friendship Itself prompts It .to say to the imperial government that repsUtloq by the commanders of German naval vessels of acts in contravention of those rights must be regarded by the government of the United States, yppon they affect American citizens, as deliberately unfriendly." This phrasing. It Is believed, was adopted at the last conference be­ tween Secretary of State Lansing and the president and at a time when there were several other phrase* un­ der discussion. Not an Ultimatum. The general tone of the note does not affect the German official mind here adversely in the opinion of some German officials the note is least of all an ultimatum, and suggests new ways by which the diplomatic discus­ sions can be continued. Count von BernstoriT. the German ambassador, was at the state department and was handed a copy of the note. He would not discuss it officially but be left the distinct Impression on friends with whom he talked that the avenues by which friendly adjustment can be se­ cured have not been closed. One of the salient suggestions of the note Is that ft seems to refrain ' from repenting the language of for-; mer American notes, which have been construed by diplomats here as meanIng that Germany must stop her sub- j marine warfare. Not only Is there an absence of that character of language but the concluding paragraph seems only to ask that there be a restriction on the conduct of the submarine war­ fare affecting ships carrying Ameri­ can*.

This habit of always doing one’s best enters into the very marrow of one's heart and character; It affects one's bearing, one's self-possession. The one who does everything to a fin­ ish has a feeling of serenity; he is not easily thrown-off his balance; he has nothing to fear, and he can look the world in the face because he feels conscious that he has not put shoddy into anything, that he has had‘nothlng to do with shams, and that he has always done his level best. The sense of efficiency, of being master of one's craft, of being equal to any emer­ gency; the consciousness of possess­ ing the ability to do with superiority whatever one undertakes, will give soul-satisfaction which a half-hearted, slipshod worker never knows. When a man feels throbbing within him the power to do what be undertakes as well as it can possibly be done, and all of his faculties say "Amen’’ to what he is doing, and give their un­ qualified approval to his efforts—that is happiness.—Orison Swetf Martfen.

Think of it— a full 5-passenger car—an absolutely complete car, with electric starter, electric lights, high-tension magneto, and every refinement—a luxurious car—a beautiful car—a powerful 50-mile-an-hour-car,—yet a light-weight real economy car—for $655. i All Low After-Cost Records Broken The “first cost" of an automobile is a big consideration to any sane man, but the “after cost" is an even bigger considera­ tion to any man who wants to remain sane in his automobile investment. The “after cost” or upkeep is what a car costs you to main­ tain, run, and enjoy, after you have bought it, and it is mighty hard to enjoy an automobile if it costs you too much to run.

The authorities Immediately began a search for Joe Deberry, a negro who formerly was employed by the Mar­ tins. He was convicted of stealing a diamond ring and sentenced to three years in the reformatory at Pontiac. He was paroled three months ago through the influence brought to bear by Mrs. Martin. Since his return here he frequently expressed his bitterness toward the Martins for sending him to prison in the first place, and threatened to “get even.” He seemed calloused toward the woman who had befriended him.

At prompt high noon, while Miss Gladys Miller, sister of the groom, rendered a beautiful wedding march, the bridal party marched in unat­ tended and took their places beneath a k'hlte wedding bell suspended from a bower decorated with bridal wreath ferns and flowers.' Beneath Kheir feet west a handsome white rug strewn with hundreds of pansy blossoms, a gift of the bride's aunt. Mrs. Fannie M. Grinnell of Bellevue. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. G. T. Curtis, pastor of the Bellevue Baptist church. The bride waa beautifully attired in Copenhagen blue marquisette ov­ er white silk. After the congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Randall, assisted by their son, Maynard, served’a delicious twocourse wedding dinner. The dining room was very prettily decorated for the occasion, the color scheme being pink and white with a profusion of cut flowers. Streamers of pink and white were draped from the celling, reaching the snow white cloth and making a very pretty effect. Mrs. Miller, who has always been a resident of Courts, was very popu­ lar and is held in the highest esteem by all her acquaintances. The groom, who is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Al­ bert Miller, was also a resident of Convis until six months ago. He now holds a fine position with the Princess Motor Company of Detroit. Many pretty and useful gifts found their way to these young people, one worthy of1 especial mention being a very generous purse from the bride's parents.

Single adult admissions in tho afternoons will be 25 cents and in the evenings 35 cents, except on “Band Day,” when the afternoon admission will be 35 cents and the evening 50 cents. Thia would make a total of $3.25 for the ten sessions if you pay at the gate each time. A season ticket if bought from the local committee will cost only $1.50 ($1.75 at the gate). With a season ticket you can, therefore, attend less than half the sessions and still be ahead, for you can let some other member of your family or a friend use your ticket when you can’t go.

JULIUS F. BEMENT JEWELER ANO OPTOMETRIST NASHVILLE, MICH Wedding Ring Always Used. Wedding customs have varied with changing periods but the wedding ring has always been used. Its earliest form was iron, then, in turn, copper, brass, leather, sedge and adamant; and. after this, the precious metals. The first record of its use Is in Gen­ esis 4. The old Glmmal ring was cunningly fitted in two sections, so that one went to the bride and the other to the bridegroom: and It is often copied for modern brides. Bad Points In Xll of Ua.

DEMARCHUS BROWN, who will deliver two addresses here—one in the afternoon and one in the evening—the second day of our Chautauqua, is regarded as one of the most brilliant women of Indiana. Her personality, grace of manner, frankness and friend­ liness, her good voice and Interesting subject matter combine to render one of the most popular of women lecturers. She captivates, .Inspires and in­ structs her audiences because she has traveled much, read much, thought much and has the ability to deliver her messages In a brilliant style. Essen­ tially human and thoroughly feminine, she easily dispels any notion that the platform is for men alone. Mrs. Brown is an enthusiastic clubwoman of the type that believes in do­ ing things for the betterment of the community and has appeared before a great many of the clubs of Indiana and surrounding states. She is particu­ larly interested In modern languages, the feminist movement, foreign people In the United States and people in general. The subject of her talk in the afternoon will be "Her Long Road." dealing with the struggle of women to educate themselves, enter the industrial field, secure political justice and social freedom. In the evening she will discuss "Modern Life and Literature.” Her vast fund of information, her familiarity with the best literature, her versatility and her sympathetic interest in all things human make her eminently quail fled to deal with these or any other subjects of general interest M I Recitation.—Martha Belson—Star market grange. quotations, | Paper—“Some of the Needs of the A long list of figures galore.

It la particularly fit­ ting that Mr. Spencer open the Chau­ tauqua. for his lectures are a fair sample of the valuable instruction and whole-souled entertainment which the entire program will offer. "Dreamers and Schemers” which is the title of Mr.. Spencer's after­ noon lecture, deals with the interest­ ing conflict between two view-points —that of the practical man of the world,and the idealist or dreamer. "Dreamers and Schemers” is inter­ spersed with wit. humor, pathos and striking illustrations. In the eve­ ning Mr. Spencer will speak upon the Important subject "Preparedness for Peace." Both vocal and instrumental mu­ sic will precede Mr. Spencer's lec­ tures on the first day. and this fea­ ture of the entertainment will be in the bands of Montanelli’s Venetian Quartet. A. Montanelli, manager of this quartet, was bbrn in Florence, Italy, and has been engaged in con­ cert work practically all his life. During the past three years his quar­ tet has been engaged exclusively in giving concerts at the clubs and homes of New York's "400”. and has appeared on several occasions at the homes of Cornelius Vanderbilt.

Advantages of a Checking Account If you have a checking account, the bank does your book­ keeping free of charge and renders you a statement of your receipts and expenditures whenever you ask for it. Your cancelled checks are receipts for the bills you have paid. You need never pay a bill twice if you pay by chock. The check is positive proof that you paid the money. You cannot be robbed If you carry a check book instead of actual money. You cannot lose your money by carelessness or fire if you keep it in the bank and pay by check. If you have a check book in your pocket you always have the “right ehauge," for you can make out a check for any odd amount. If you pay by check, people will see that you have a bank account and your credit will be greatly improved If you have a chocking account nt the. bank, you will be given special consideration should you wish to borrow money. Your money in the bank keeps mills running, employs labor, and makes good and prosperous times for all. If you have a checking account you need not send money through the mails. You can send your check. If the check is lost vour monSy Is still safe in the bank. If a check is stolen or forged, you do not lose anything. The bank is liable for forged checks if it*pays them. All check books, bank books, etc, are free, and it costs you absolutely nothing to have a bank account. If you have a checking account at the bank, you will always feel free to ask your banker for advice or for a recommendation. He will be glad to furnish either. Nine-tenths of the business of the world is done by checks. Why not do yours that way? The officers of this bank are at your service. They invite you to moke this bank your business home.

All Low After-Cost Records Broken The “first cost” of an automobile is a big consideration to any sane man, but the “after cost” is an even bigger considera­ tion to any man who wants to remain sane in his automobile investment. The “ after cost” or upkeep is what a car costs you to main­ tain, run, and enjoy, after you have bought it, and it is mighty hard to enjoy an automobile if it costs you too much to run.

FOREWARNED-r-FOREARSIED. A girl had a proposal of marriage Sunday night, and asked a week to consider it before answering. She then organized herself Into an In­ vestigating committee and began tak­ ing testimony from married ladles of her acquaintance. The first one she visited used to be a belle and the most admired girl In town before she married six years before. The cross-examination brought out the fact that she had six children, did all her own work, Including washing and Ironing, and hadn't been down town for four weeks, and that her husband had given her but 92 since she married, and that he had bor­ rowed and'forgot to pay back 910 which het brother once gave her for a Cbrlstme^ present. He bought himself a new overcoat with x the money, while she wore the same plush coat which she wore when he was courting her. Another woman whom she visited quit teaching school three years ago to marry “the handsomest and best-dressed man in town,” and she was supporting him. A third didn’t dare say her soul was her own when her busband was around, though she used to write some lovely essays when she was at school on the "emancipation of wom­ en," and the fourth woman she vis­ ited was divorced. After visiting them and summing up the evidence, she went home and wrote the young man. She will be married □ext month.

Aug. 31.—State depart­ ment officials expressed the opinion that the way is being cleared rapidly for another effort by the United States to get England and Germany to agree to the principle of the freedom of the seas with direct bearing on the re­ opening of neutral trade with Gerzpany. A long cable message was received by Secretary of State Lansing from Ambassador Gerard relating to tbe Arabic case and was of sufficient Im­ portance to require a visit of Mr. Lansing to the White House. . Mr, Lansing declined to state even thesubject mattcY of the cablegram, but It is known that It contained a discus­ sion of internal politics at Berlin, and the Arabic case, and the general pros­ pects of the terms on which an agree­ ment between the United States and Germany might be predicated. After the receipt of this dispatch from Mr. Gerard, the British ambassa­ dor. 8fr Cecil Spring-Rice. called on the state department trade advisers and on other officials of the state de­ partment. "After these two developments, it was indicated very strongly that Great Britain i B<s willing .............to modify ** the orders in 1 rnncll so far as they affected the exi jrt of dye stuffs from Germany and _nuhions of dollars' worth of goods held at Rotterdam under contract for shipment to the United States. . Stutts department authorities, read­ ing between the lines of what they have from the German foreign office, neem to think that Germany will frankly disavow the act of the com­ mander of the submarine who at­ tacked the Arabic if he did not give the warning required by International law and demanded by this govern­ ment. They say that a great point will be. thus gained and that the next step would be easy for Germany to abandon all attacks on unarmed mer­ chant vessels This would pave tbe way for a second suggestion to Great Britain by the United States in line with the Identical note of February 20. That note was a distinct offer ot mediation, provided that England and Germany would make mutual conces­ sions. <•, 62 FRENCH FLYERS IN RAID Bombs Dropped by Allies on Dilllngen, Prussia—Berlin Says Four Air­ men Were Brought Down.

That proves it’s a love match, doesn't it?” "Come here. Hall, and stood up by me! Anyone would think you didn't want to get merried!" Flodle called nervously. By this time the company had be­ gun to enter, and soon flooded the studio, laughing, wondering, joking with Halt ' “Go ahead!" cried Flodle. "We’re ready, Mr. Doremus, quick!” She stamped her foot angrily, "Oh, wait a minute," Hall inter­ posed, "we want this thing arranged a little. It won't do to rush it” He turned to his guests.

It was all he said, but once more Toye was regarding him aa shrewdly as when the night was younger, and the littleness ot the world had not yet made them confi­ dant and boon companion. Eight bells actually struck before their great talk ended and. Cazalet swore that he missed the “watches aft. sir!” of the sailing-vessel ten years before. "Say!" exclaimed Hilton Toye, knit­ ting his brows over some nebulous rec­ ollection of his own. "I seem to have heard of you and some ot your yarns before. Didn't you spend nights in a log-hut miles and miles from any hu­ man being?" It was as they were turning In at last, but the question spoiled a yawn for Cazalet. “Sometimes, at one of our out-sta­ tions,” said he, looking puzzled. “I’ve seen your photograph," said Toye, regarding him with a more criti­ cal stare. "But it was with a beard." **I had it off when I was ashore the other day," said Cazalet. "I always meant to, before tbe end of the voy­ age." "I see. It was a Miss Macnair showed me that photograph—Miss Blanche Macnair lives In a little house down there near your- old homo. I Judge hers is another old home that's been broken up since your day." "They've all got married,” said Caza­ let "Except Miss Blanche. You write to her some, Mr. Cazalet?** "Once a year—regularly. It was a promise. We were kids together,” he explained, as he climbed back into the upper berth. "Guess you were a lucky kid.” saidthe voice below. “She's one in thousand. Miss Blanche Macnair!" bad to satisfy an inner censor, of some austerity, before they were allowed to leave those deliberate lips. Yet now. In his strange excitement, word and tone alike were on the level of the Stage American's. It was not less than extraordinary. "You don’t mean”— Cazalet seemed to be swallowing—"about Henry Cra­ ven?” • "Yep.” “You don't mean to say he’s—dead?” “Last Wednesday night!"' Toye looked at his paper, “No, I guess I'm Seems it — happened Wednes* wrong £ ------ .. day, but he only passed away Sunday morning.” ’ Cazalet still sat staring at him— there was not room for two of them on their feet—but into his heavy stare there came a gleam ot leaden wisdom. “This was Thursday morning," be said, “so I didn't dream of it when it happened, after all." “You dreamed you saw him lying dead, and so he was,” said Toye. “The funeral’s been today. I don’t know, but that seems to me just about the .bly suggestive at such a moment. * "You aren't a detective,. by any, chance, are you?*’ cried Cazalet, with clumsy humor. "No, sir! But I’ve often thought I wouldn't mind being one,” said Toye,] chuckling. "I rather figure I might do' something at it. If things don't go my\ way in your old country, and they put' up a big enough reward, why. here’s a1 man I knew and a place I know, and I:' might have a mind to try my hand." They went ashore together, and to’ the same hotel at Southampton for the night. Midnight found the chance pair' with their legs under the some heavy Victorian mahogany, devouring cold’ beef, ham and pickles as phlegmatical-1 ly as commercial travelers who had never been off tbe island-in their lives.' Yet surely Cazalet was less depressed' than he had been before landing; the' old English ale in a pewter tankard even elicited a few of those anecdotes' and piquant comparisons in which bls' conversation was at its best. It was at its-------------------------worst on general---questions, ---------------------or on concrete topics not introduced by ■ himself; and into this category, per­ haps not unnaturally, fell such further particulars of the Thames Valley mys­ tery as were to be found In an evening paper at the inn. They included a frag| mentary report of the adjourned in-' quest, and the actual 4ffer of such a reward, by the dead man’s firm, for the apprehension of his murderer, as ’ made Toye’s eyes glisten in bls cagacious head. | But Cazalet, though be had skimmed the many-headed column before «it' ting down to supper, flatly declined to | discuss the tragedy his first night ashore.

SEPTEMBER 20 to 24 Cleaning Jewelry. All jewelry that is constantly worn should be washed every month or six weeks. It is not a difficult mat­ ter, either. All you have to do is to make a coapy lather and add a few drops of ammonia. Take an old tooth brush and brush all the dirt out of the crevices. When quite clean, take the jewelry out of the water and rub perfectly dry with a chamois leather or ordinary tissue paper. When cleaning any article that is set with stones, such aa a ring, be more gentle with the toothbrush. It you are the lucky possessor of any pearls, remember they must nev­ er be put into soapy water, though sea water is good for them. of Sept. 1915. 1911 My commission ex| Notary Public.

Here is a car that has every worth-while known feature and the appearance and finish of cars costing twice its price. It is not only low in first-cost, but it has broken all low after-cost records for miles per gallon of gas­ oline; miles per gallon of lubricating oil; miles per set of tires; lowest year-in-and-year-out repair bills. Ask for a demonstration of the 1916 Maxwell: ride in it and learn for yourself what a small amount of money it will cost to drive this dependable automobile. POWER, for hills, mud, sand or speed. .

At the risk of repeating what we have said before, we want to emphasize these points: If you deposit all your income in this strong Bank and pay it out by check, you will make a written record of your money transactions. Your checks are returned to you when paid, and they maybe referred to months or years hence, when important information is wanted, or the amount or time of a certain payment is disputed. It is much more convenient and much safer to make payments by check than in currency. It saves carrying sums of money on the person, or keeping money about the house.

LENTZ * DON'T RISK YOUR HEALTH How easy it is to take cold — dampness, wet feet, sitting in.a draft, exposure to winds and the unpleasant results soon follow. The head becomes clogged, it’s difficult to breathe, the membranes of nose and throat become irritated, inflamed, and a catarrhal condition manifests itself. Not only are these symptoms extremely annoying, but they are very liable to lead to very serious ailments unless proper care is taken. You can’t afford to risk your health in so simple a ifcmger. When the first symptoms of a cold appear it is comparatively easy to cure, and any one of the many re­ liable remedies we carry will do the business in short order. We especially recommend Nyal’s Laxacold as a prompt and effective cure. Postoffice Pharmacy C. H. Brown, Proprietor 'SUMMER STOCK CLCAHANCt.

At the risk of repeating what we have said before, we want to emphasize these points: If you deposit all your income in this strong Bank and pay it out by check, you will make a written record of your money transactions. Your checks are returned to you when paid, and they maybe referred to months or years hence, when important information is wanted, or the amount or time of a certain payment is disputed. It is much more convenient and much safer to make payments by check than in currency. It saves carrying sums of money on the person, or keeping money about the house.

It has been done by the inveterate patronizer of the mail order man and the big city, merchant. • Let us suppose two pictures, and the story will have been told so plainly and so graphically as to be readily understood by any person of any degree of intelligence whatever. PICTURE ONE PICTURE TWO This is a thriving country town commun­ ity. It has modem improvements, many stores well stocked with goods that are sold at close margins of profit, is clean, sani­ tary, and attractive in many ways. Business is good, money is plentiful and in constant circulation, society is active, and life is more than worth living. Farmers find a ready market for their pro­ ducts, and those that are not consumed locally are purchased by shippers at the highest market prices. The town has a good name abroad, new people are constantly moving in, real estate is on the move, farm values are high and the demand for them is heavy. It is a successful town, but it is so only because the people of the com­ munity trade with their home merchants and are loyal to home institutions and home people. This is known as a mail order town and community, and it looks it. ' There was a time when this was a pros­ perous community of people, with many stores well stocked and business gener­ ally on the boom. Then the mail order man came along with his handsome catalogues and his alluring advertisements of “something for nearly nothing” which did not always pan out as expected, and many of the people fell for his stunt. . And each year they fell a little oftener and a little harder, and the home merchants sold less goods and had to reduce their stocks, and some of them became dis­ gusted and moved away, and the town just naturally hit the slippery place on the toboggan and slid down to the bot­ tom and has stuck there ever since. The community produces more than it consumes, and since the people trade at home the profits and surplus are natur­ ally kept at home, with Jhe result that • the financial condition of the commun­ ity becomes better day by day. This is what LOYALTY TO HOME INSTITUTIONS does for you and yours. Yes, it is just a mail order town, and looks it. Pride is gone, business men are apathetic, trade is dull, money is scarce and hard to get, social life is dead, teal estate is deader, and farm values have shrunk until they are the deadest of all. Many farms are for sale, but there are no buyers. Nobody wants to live or invest in a dead com­ munity. Young people growing up get tired of living in a cemetery and move on to other and more pro­ gressive communities, or to the larger cities. Older ones would like to go, too, but tncy can not sell their property and of course there is noth­ ing left for them to do but stick around and stagnate with the rest of the victims of the mail order man. :<”“Thi«;s what PATRONIZING THE MAIL ORDER MAN and Neglecting the Home Mer­ chants and Institutions does for you and yours. MORAL: The community that patronizes home institutions will live and prosper. The one that clings to the mail order man more often faces certain commercial disintegration, stagnation and death. , ANTIDOTE: Resolve today that you will never again deal yourself and your commun­ ity A body blow by sending your money away to the mail order man. Stick to home and home will stay by you, and your combined, energies will bring victory from defeat and prosperity from disaster. The editor suggests that for your fall and winter buying you first call upon your home merchants and see if they can not supply you with what you want as acceptably as any other man or set of men anywhere. They CAN do it and WILL do it. Here are firms who are ready to meet the mail order man on his own ground and on his own terms. They are worthy of your support and you are too good a citizen to pass thejn by.

He claims that a study of .former types of feet goes to prove that the feet of modern people are more shapely than those of their ancestors or those of the savage races. Perhaps, after all, the mistakes of ill-fitting shoes have not seriously deformed the general type of foot. Selection of a Wife. In France. Germany, China, Japan and many other countries, wives are selected for the man by the parents, with the assumption that the parents being older and having larger exper­ ience with life, are better capable of selecting a wife than the inexper­ ienced youthf It is not yet proved that this is Da^unwiM course.—Ex­ change.

Place a little oxalic acid in a dish and moisten with water enough to make .a paste. Rub the paste on the articles to be cleaned, using a soft cloth. Let them dry. Now rub briskly with a dry flannel cloth, and as a result you will have a remarkable brightness. Having the article to be cleaned very hot will make the operation even easier.

NEWSPAPERS Constantly tell of loss by fire, theft or accident of money—valuable papers and documents. Apparently, the victims know little or nothing about the safety deposit box or the real functions of a bank. In every town there is the victim of the “get rich quick” swindle whose long-hoarded savings went into the pockets of the clever crook instead of working for the benefit of the community. THE ONE SURE WAY To get money is to earn it The one sure way to have money is to save it. And the one sure way to save it is to get it out of your pocket, and into a savings bank. Farmers &.

Henry Bidleman, Auctioneer Herbert Calkins, Clerk Middlevine will entertain the sec­ ond annual Burry County Older Boys’ conference, which will be held during the spring vacation in March. This was decided last Friday at a meeting of tbe Barry county committee of the Y. C. A. at its headquarters in . Hastings, when Fred O. Stokoe, pres­ ident of the village, presented a pe­ tition signed by 75 representative business men and boys of Middleville. Already plans are under way for the ' gathering which will have as its main topic for discussion: "Choos­ ing a Life Work". Several matters of importance were considered at the County Committee meeting. - The county secretary was instructed to prepare articles of in­ corporation, which will soon be filed under tbe public acts of Michigan with the Secretary of State. In an­ other year, the committee may make an active campaign for a partial en­ dowment. George J. Nagler of Free­ port and B. S. Holly of Woodland were added to tbe committee, .work in these towns being contemplated by the County Association. Local committees representing each ot the churches In these communities have been organized, and this plan of making permanent this work among the boys of the county will be adopt­ ed in other places as rapidly as pos­ sible.

Eighteen young men have been followed to other cities and to various colleges and universi­ ties by letters of introduction. De­ siring to be very conservative, the county secretary only reported the promise of 15 organized groups of boys at the five points where last year the committee had 12, but he hopes that before Christmas Prairie­ ville, Delton. Woodland and Freeport will each have at least one group un- . der efficient leadership) Twenty-four plates were laid for the Leadership Training Conference supper which followed in the play loom of the Hastings association. County Chairman M. L^ Cook out­ lined to the leaders their fundament­ al task for the year, that of helping boys to Christian character building. County Secretary Vandercook con­ ducted the devotional period, and then leaders and committeemen en­ gaged in an Informal discussion of methods ot group administration. State Secretary C. L.'Rowe gave the concluding address of the evening. ' EVANGELICAL t'HVRCH NOTES. ! The revival services at the Evan-’ gelicai church are continuing with! increasing'success.

Tell you right now it's no fun t’ parade around twlth a forty­ pound tuba er a drum hitched to yer shoulders. Takes a lot a time to keep in practice ter playin’ too, and you never git any thanks fer it, let alone bein’ paid. No more uf the band business fer me. that’s sure." ’’That’s where you’re wrong. Un­ cle.” answered the business man, con­ tinuing: "We’re all going to chip in and buy the boys new uniforms and pay them regularly- for in-door ‘ concerts all winter and open-air ones next summer."

Suddenly remembering that she did not know who he was, and re­ membering also that her own conduct might be held as singular, she turned her companion over to the head porter of the hotel and hurried away to her own room. Apparently the disfigured stranger remained at the hotel that night, for when, at eleven of the following morn­ Ing, Kitty Gray emerged, property ar- • rayed for a morning ride, she saw the stranger in the hotel lobby, his .face swathed in bandages.

Kitty Gray did not notice that her companion had rhrunk back low into the seat. Her own eyps met those of the occupant Gf the advancing car. Kitty Gray was young and more than • a little handsome.

Mrs. Quick, chairman of the entertainment committee, invit­ ed tbe officers and members to re­ pair to the reception room which was found filled with little tables all laid for luncheon, which proved to be a delicious spread in which all, but one lone brother, took a very active part. Mrs. Colin T. Munro was in­ troduced as toastmaster and filled the place in a very creditable manner. J. E. Lake responded to the toast, "Our Worthy Matron". Mrs. Vou W. Furols* had for her subject. "Our Star", and the thoughts she brought out were good indeed. Mrs. Frank Caley sang "The Star in the East" which was much enjoyed. "Ye Olden Times’* was the subject given Miss Josephine Downing and she told of things that happened when our vil­ lage first started. Almon G Mur­ ray responded to the nice things the toutmaster said about him with a very interesting, original poem. O. M. McLaughlin was given “Thanks­ giving Thoughts" and Mrs. J. E.

Kitty Gray turned suddenly to the man seated beside, her in the motor, - bending upon him a steady gaze. "Who are you?” asked she. "Why did you follow me?” The swathed figure suddenly straightened.' “Whatever I am—what­ ever you njay think me. do not believe me incapable of gratitude to yourself." “What is your name?" JThey call me Roleau, made­ moiselle.” Kitty Gray turned yet more closely •to him. gazed straight into his eyes. “Then why not enlist with me? Surely we have a i common cause. We have a common enemy. W’ould it be wrong did you and I league against him?" “You ask me. then"To be my friend, my ally." "Surely 1 owe him no. allegiance further!” exclaimed Roleau bitterly. "He struck me like a dog.” "Yet you and I must see him again —and soon.” "What! Would you trust yourself once more In his presence? You are an American girl—you are Innocent, you are ignorant I warn You." "None the less. If I am to go forward with the business which brought me here to Gretzhoffen. surely I must once more meet the Count Frederick. The man at her side hesitated no more than an Instant. "Very well,” said be calmly. “As for me. my life has been forfeit many a time before now. What matter? 1 will go with you as you say. Indeed, I fancy I know why you ask me to go—they know me at the palace—they will ad­ mit us both.” It was as Roleau had said. When finally the two drew up to the court driveway in front of the count’s pal­ ace, they were admitted without ques­ tion. Roleau closed the door behind him and put a finger to his lips for alienee. “They will listen,’* he whispered, “Be careful. This is the room where Count Frederick receivgs bls— friends." Curiously, silently, times walked about the room, taking stock of the surroundings. Count Frederick entered. “Mademoiselle! I am charmed! So ; yon remember me?" "You may say as much indeed,” re­ joined Kitty Gray calmly. “I saw you in the carriage this morning." He turned now to Roleau, with no change in his countenance to indicate any recollection of tbe nature of their last meeting. “You may retire to the next room," said he. dismissing him with a wave of the hand. “Do not in the least misunderstand me. Monsieur le Comte,” said she* Hghtly. “My business is very simple. I have a proposition to make to you— a business proposition.” “But I am not a business man.” mocked the smiling antagonist ‘ came yet a half step "Are you so sure?" exclaimed suddenly. “Is there no buslneM in which also I am definitely concerned? Then why did you send a messenger to follow me in my own country, to ransack my apartments there, to vio­ late my privacy even on the steamer?” “My man served me but ill—If I may admit part of what you say mademoiselle.” "That is why I am here—and in his company! Yes. I know your messen­ ger as I know you. Come, let us rea­ son together over this. Monsieur le Comte. Shall ft be business or war between us?” The sheer audacity of this speech for one moment daunted Count Fred­ erick. The next be broke into a roar at laughter and flung himself into a chair. "Admirable!” said he. She started away from him, moving toward the door. "I came. Monsieur le Comte." said ahe boldly, "to ask you what price for the half coin which you seek to hold. Suppose, for in­ stance, that Gretzhoffen loan were executed for you finally in New York —would that influence you at all? at her, his strong fingers turned the key in the lock, removed It, thrust it into his pocket. “Mademoiselle," he said calmly, “you say you camo on business Very well, let us talk business. We know something of the history of a certain broken coin. Very good. You have half of it We will say I have the other. Give me your half the coin, and I will let you go. Refuse, and I’ll never let you go.” “I will do nothing under compulsion from you or any other man,” said Kitty Gray stoutly. “I offer you a fair price for your half of the coin.” “You will not give it to me?" "No I Nol“ A loud pounding on the door inter­ rupted them at this moment "It Is Roleau,” smiled the count "I will have him whipped.” The face of Kitty Gray had grown like marble. Suddenly, with one swift movement, she dashed her clenched hand with all her force into the face which bent toward her. A livid mark arose under the swift compact The tall man staggered back. The next Instant Kitty felt her wrist caught In an iron grasp. Struggling, she was forced backward. She felt another hand grasp her wrist The man Grahame, the count's valet, had appeared mysteriously from the alcove adjoining. “Give me the coin!” insisted Count Frederick still. "Tell me where I may have It—or by the Lord! you will rest a long time to think this matter over.” “Excellency!” ejaculated the man Grahame stAdenly "On guard! He is breaking in the door- Quick, excel­ lency!" And even as Roleau. by a mighty heave burst in the door, Grahame and his master hurried Kitty to the ‘ rear door of the alcove It made out upon a dimly lighted b.ll. Roleau heard them pass, followed swiftly as he could But it was empty. The purr of a motor getting under way reached his ears. ■ “So, then—we failed." said Roleau bitterly. in the Desert. Convinced against her will, as she hurried along in the grasp of the two powerful men, that compliance would serve ber purpose better than resist­ ance, Kitty Gray took ber place on the seat of the motor car. • • ' "More and more I admire you,” said the man at her side, ns the motor swung into its speed. “What a woman you are! If you would but give me time—" '"You shall have all the 1time yon ask. Monsieur le Comte!" "Still, I ponder as to your i all this. It cannot be money. “Indeed it is money—In part." “How much, rfnademoiselle?” “A year's salary—1 have got imuch at stake, on my word. Twelve> hundred dollars. Monster le Comte, It is a fortune for me.” Count Frederick flung himself back upon the cushions and laughed long_ and loud. “Twelve hundred dollars!” said he. “Twelve hundred dollars in a whole year, in an entire year? My dear, give me the half coin you have upon you, and I promise you shall have twelve thousand dollars to spend as you like each and every day of your life, as long as you- live. Come now, is it a trade? You said you came to talk business.” For tbe first time now Kitty looked about her, scarce having realized how long their journey had been. So great had been their speed that by this time they had cleared the city walls of Gretzhoffen and passed the tilled farmlands of the villages. It was what was known locally as the desert—a neutral ground, not tilled and incapable of successful tillage, which lay between the two kingdoms of Gretzhoffen on the east and Grahoffen on the west. • Whether it was the heat of the sun which had expanded the air in the mo­ tor tires, or whether there was some sharp stone under the wheel, there was no time to determine; yet sudden­ ly, with the usual rlflellke report, there was an explosion of tbe tire. Tbe car was practically helpless. Kitty looked about her vaguely, fearfully, but as she bent from the open window she heard in the dis­ tance the chug of another motor, driv­ en rapidly, thrown wide open and coming forward at great speed. “Quick! Grahame,” the count de”This is your work. She has it on her person. You must—yes, you must take it at once." As he laid hand upon her, all tbe hot indignation of Kitty's soul flamed up. She battled as best she might She defeated the man in his purpose of snatching at the string which he saw suspended about her neck. His suspicions were well founded, for once more Kitty bad concealed her portion of tbe coin in a little bag which she "You ruffian, what have you dona!" exclaimed Ma master, as with a thin smile Grahame held up the chamois WBut Count Frederick ripped it open, took from it what he saw. and thrust it into his pocket Even as this hap­ pened, tbe pursuing car was closing in uj»on them. It was Roleau who sprang from the scat and hastened forward, revolver in hand. As he did so a weapon cracked from the car of Count Frederick, and Roleau, stum­ bling. fell forward and lay still. "Come Grahame—quick.” An in­ stant later they had taken possession of the motor impressed by Roleau. How long she remained senseless, she herself scarcely knew, but when Kitty stirred, * raised her head, she saw lying close beside her the figure of the man who had sought to bofriend her. Kitty suddenly raised hor hand to her neck. The cord was gone. . The packet was missing. When after a time she ceased in a useless effort to lug the heavy body of Roleau into the shelter of the car, she turned to gate about her. She paused, her gaze arrested. Yea, a little caravan, apparently from some far off land, and journeying hither frankly enough across tbe neutral ground between these two little king­ doms. The apparent- leader of this little caravan was a reticent, dark-bearded man. He advanced now quietly to­ ward the young woman. "The lady is in distress? There has been trouble here—robbers, bandits— your man has been killed, perhaps. Yes, there are many such in this land, between the two kinguoms. There is no law here, mademoiselle I cross as you see, with my own men armed. I am. If you please, a merchant of Grahoffen. Sometimes I do a little merchandising between the two king­ doms." He pointed to the coat of arms on the door of the disabled car. “The Count Frederick of Gretzhoffen has been here.” “Aye, the Count Frederick! It was he who left us here.” He made a gesture now to his at­ tendants, aad as some of them lifted the limp form of Roleau, he himself assisted Kitty to mound. A few mo­ ments later and tbe strange proces­ sion was again on Its way. "Mademoiselle." said the leader at length, as he drew up alongside, "I must continue on into my own coun­ try. We are near tbe edge of it here. At the' little stream which lies just beyond there is a house of a peasant —it is but a hovel and no fit place for you, that is true. But even so. that is better either for you or for They advanced now a little distance farther, until within’ full sight of the -peasant's little but, Radoz made signs Kitty Felt Her Wrist Caught in an iron Grasp. that bls charges should be assisted in dismounting. The cowlike peasant woman proved not inept in ministrations—perhaps she had seen such hurts as these be­ fore in her life here on the border. She made Roleau comfortable. CoOnt Bachio of Grahoffen. At sunrise of the following morning Kitty awoke as suddenly as she bad fallen asleep the night before. After her frugal breakfast with the old peasant folk—with whom she could hold no conversation whatever—she set out for the bedside of the faithful attendant who had been injured in her "Roleau, good morning,” she said. "How goes it, then?” | M "Excellently! I am quite well, And my wound not to be serious. can travel." t "Better rest for yet a time," said Kitty. -It will be the best medicine tor you. * As for myself, I purpose now to go out and spy out the land.” She left blm, making sqme excuse to her peasant hosts, passed out from tiie little cottage. She walked on stead­ ily. not ill content after all, until Just as she arrived at the edge of the for­ est she noticed advancing from its depths a little party of horsemen, who «era riding swiftly toward her on tbe trail. They came on at a gallop, foreignlooking men, richly clad, dark of visage, equipped as though for tbe : riding, a man and a •woman. I swear, 11 believe it is the two. both come to life again! j They advanced now more fJowly I and pulled up at the foot of a little j ravine, where a cross trail came in | from the right, leading no one knew where, out into No Man's Land her , tween tbe two kingdoms of Gretxhofj’fen and Grahoffen. Here the depree| sion concealed them and they awaited ’ the arrival of the two travelers. I That came in due course, but with • It almost synchronously yet other ’ events. A sound of shouting became audible. To the right, along a curving cross-road of tbe desert,, there came into view, riding at top speed, whoop­ ing aloud as they spurred forward, n ragged band of' drunken ruffians— none less than a party of the banditti which in those somewhat lawless days infested this open and little-traveled region, a sort of No Man's Land. “Come, your money—your valu■ ables!” exclaimed the leader of these ruffians. “You know me? I am Landozl, chief of the Brotherhood. My men like work none too well, and we must eat and drink. Your money, please—or we will take it whether or not you please..” Contemptuously, Count Frederick reached into his pockets and flung upon the ground before them such valuables as he had. The bandit now turned to repeat this process with the other two stran­ gers, whom they .could not classify as friends or foes ot thoso whom they bad now found in the motor car. “What have we here—a woman, and ‘This Lady Is In My Care." a beautiful one!” exclaimed the ban­ tims lying helpless in the sandy plain, hunt The apparent leader of the dit chief. “She wears no jewels—per­ party, a stalwart, sturdy man, dark they themselves made al! speed possi­ haps she has fiot much money for us. of hair and richly clad—rode slightly ble back to the capital In spite of But still, there aro other ways.

Never before in all the history of this section has such a fine high grade stock of goods been thrown on the market This old reliable store has been forced to a settlement with their creditors on account of buying too much goods in a season when conditions in business have been very bad. Also collections have been very slow. Any person owing this store will confer a great favor upon the owners if they will kindly pay at once or as soon as possible.

Billy Sunday's message to Chicago to the effort that “Batter Booze has three balls and two strikes called on him," prompted Chicago Tribune to interview some of the downtown sa­ _ loonkeepers. This what one old timer '■aid: ' "Three balls and two strikes isn't putting ft strong enough. The bat’s half swung on the third strike now, way over tho bait You can go from one end of the loop to tho other and crisscross, and you won't find a single saloonkeeper making money.

Say, it’s a trag­ edy for that woman! So, what's she going to do? Just stop it, put her foot down and her vote down. Three balls and two strikes, eh? You can just ’ call that third strike now." "There’s no doubt about It," said another. "Chicago is going dry. We al! know that, and so fnr as we are concerned down here In the loop. It might as well* be dry now.’’ DO IT ALONE. The Rotary club of Manchester, England, recently gave a dinner at midday to Harry Lauder, the come­ dian. A Scottish menu was served in his honor, the haggis figuring promi­ nently. The "Cock o’ the North" was duly played by a piper and on the table were beer, wine and spirits. Said Harry to his hosts: ’ "We, as Rotarians, meet as a busi­ ness proposition in the middle of the day, when drink is not necessary. You may take one, two nr three and go back to business ‘muzzy.’ You can't do your business If you are in a state of ‘muzziness.’ When you have finished you can drink as much as you like but do it alone. If you are going to hell, go by yourself; don’t drag anyone with you. I have gone into clubs—not often, thank God—and seen a fellow come in when every other pjace was closed. He was re­ garded as a Jolly good fellow, and everybody clapped him on the back and laughed. Did his people at home laugh ?” PROHIBITION PROHIBITS. Incidentally, one of the interesting reults of the prohibition sweep which is causing comment here is indicated by the New York stock market reports, says a Washington (D. C.) correspond­ ent. About ten months ago the shares of the Distilleries Securities company were quoted around nineteen and twenty—and on one occasion twentytwo.

It was with simple dignity that the young American girl spoke these words to the monarch In whose pres­ ence she found herself fresh from her late adventures. “We could not too much honor so charming a representative of your great country, my dear young lady." ■aid Michael "Do not misunderstand me, your majesty," resumed the young woman. "It is more than possible I have been brought before you under false pre­ teasea I am not a person of rank, am indeed but a prisoner taken yonder by outlaws. But for the wit of my servant I think I might have been held for a ransom." "It were large ransom would be fit for such hostage as yourself, mar demoiselle. Whatever it was it would have been paid, had we but known!" "I thank you, sire. Perhaps there will be no future need. In sooth, from the way the bandit chieftain looked on another of our party, I would rather think he would prefer him to myself as hostage ” "Whom do you mean?" "The Count Frederick, sire" “Again the Count Frederick! He seems always to come Into my affairs.” The annoyance In the king's face was unmistakable. "He has been much concerned In my own." "How, mademoiselle ?" “I must explain? Sire, I came to your country only In my professional capacity—I had no more urgent er­ rand than to find the half of a certain missing coin. The other half had come Into my possession by chance. It was my fancy—" “What, a broken coin? You Inter­ est me. Mademoiselle, I felt from the first moment that eventually we would find some common ground of interest A coin—a broken coin—I know of some such thing myself. There are current stories about IL See, I have it, for my good friend Frederick seems for some strange reason to have a fancy for it himself. Would you like, then, to see It?" Kitty's eyes flashed In eagerness. “Above all things, sire! It would complete my happiness to see IL" “Then you shall, assuredly." He bowed in somewhat adipose gal­ lantry as she extended her hand to­ ward tbe pudgy palm in which lay tbe object which for ber held such inter­ est In a glance she saw tbe identity of tbe missing half. The remaining words of the inscription—they were there, she waa sure. "Torture cham­ ber—treasures of the king;” it was plain to her. These two pieces of metal joined would represent a story worth the having. “Do you not desire it. then?" The voice of the monarch carried a cer­ tain reproach. "Desire It your majesty! I should desire nothing so much in all the world. With both halves In my hand —sire, I should feel that the world "Why not gratify that wish then, mademoiselle? Listen. Count Fred erick desired this very trinket—for a lady, he said. Here is a lady who de­ sires it for herself- Why should we not give it her—why should we not have right as good as his?” "You cannot mean it for me?" "But yes, precisely! And listen, my dear young lady. There Is something about jhis broh;n coin which begins to annoy me. Count Frederick Is al­ ways referring to it for one reason or ami her—ho has bo me motive which I cannot divine. Now, of late 1 have had abundant troubles, many persons who importune me. In these serious tiroes, the people being so dlscontenttaaee than to trifle with this trinket. M Who better than yourself should dispose your majesty wholly to the good of his people?" "Precisely. It is as I would have said it, mademoiselle. You Americans are extraordinary." Kitty took from his hand the broken bit of metal and regarded it thought­ fully. “1 thank you more than I can tell, your majesty,” said she, soberly. "It shall be my mission to find out tor your people the uncompleted message of this coin." A silver bell sounded afar In the hall, announcing the approach of * servant An official of the palace en­ tered and stood motionless near the door. “What then. Andreas?" "The Count. Frederick of Gretxhoffen; the Count Sachio of Grahaffen." "Let them enter, Andreas." Both gentlemen bowed deeply as they entered and each kissed the royal hand respectfully. Kitty ig­ nored Count Sachio and bowed but coldly to Count Frederick. Count Frederick, In whose mind seemed to linger but scant remem­ brance of any unpleasant scenes in which he bad figured, smiled now, and after the American fashion, as he fancied, held out his hand. Kitty could not refuse If. Qalckly she shifted the broken bit of coin from her right hand to her left— quickly, but not so quickly as to es­ cape the keen eyes of the man who faced her new. "Count Sachio, you are welcome from your kingdom to ours. I believe you have never heard of the young American of distinction who has come among us of late—you have not met?” Kitty looked calmly at the count and made no reply. "Pas encore, votre majeste.” replied Sachio In the common language used I entrusted this missive to him with express instructions that he should leave it in the hands of some chosen servant of the king who would be sure to deliver it at th. hour of mid­ night of that very day. Tbe man listened respectfully, took the missive, and started for the door. Passing, he almost ran against a gen­ tleman in tbe hall, and dropped his en­ velope as he did so. “Your pardon,” exclaimed the gen. tieman, raising his hat; and himself picked up the envelope. The messen­ ger did Dot notice his fingers quickly closing upon it, feeling it here and there as he presented it to the bearer. Relieved now of this care, aud sat­ isfied that her plan would provide for the safety of this prised possession for that night at least—Kitty passed on to other matters. Of what use, after all, waa half this coin, while the Count Frederick still retained the other half—taken from her by force, by violence? She stood for a time, her fingers at her Ups, engaged in thought ”1 am going direct to Count Frederick him­ self and ask him for the other half of the coin. He knows the king has given me his half—perhaps he will re­ lent and let me match the king's half of the Gretxboffen coin." With her to think was to act A half hour later, ready robed for the street, she was in her car and on her way to the palace of Count Frederick. They knew her at the count's palace now—or thought they knew her—and so no questions were asked when she applied at the door. Pending the com­ ing ot the count, who was at home, as she learned, she was shown to a re­ ception room close to the entry door. As she sat here, she heard footsteps approaching, beard voices in conver­ sation. She knew that Count Freder­ ick was there, but not alone. Kitty listened shamelessly—for now Indeed all was fair in war for her in case like this. She heard Count Frederick address his companion as "My Lord Minister,” and again as "Danislaw," so knew that it was none other than the prime min­ ister of Gretxboffen with whom he was conversing. "My friend,” she beard a bard, in­ cisive voice declare, “this ball tonight is the crowning mistake of the entire year. It may mean the ruin of Gretzhoffen. I tell you. Count Frederick, revolution is in the air. The people are demanding the answer to all their sufferings, to their poverty, their anxieties. That answer, if we do not use every means to .change it, surely will be written red!" "But what plan do you propose, my lord minister? What can 1 do?” "One thing. Let me be blunt and brief—have the king sober tonight! J shame to say those words—but those are my words to you. Have our mon­ ' night! If the people see him drunken, if they find him careless.

An instant later she was out of the great entry and passing At her hotel once more she hurried to her room. Here was somewhat to be done. She knew the plot now—all was plain as to the intentions of Fred­ erick in regard to the kingdom of Gretxboffen and to the monarch who held tbe throne. "Your majesty,” she wrote In her rolling hand now, "the young Ameri­ can so much honored by your gift— which is returned to your care at mid­ night tonight—has by chance learned of a plot to Injure your majesty and to Injure the kingdom of Gretzhoffen as welL Trust her to explain when op­ portunity shall come.

Once more she telephoned to the bureau of telegraphs, called for a mes­ senger, and sent her simple missive to the king. , 1 1 1 j - , CHAPTER XIII. A Prisoner. Having dispatched ber messages. . Kitty Gray sat alone once more In her i room. There came to her mind once < more the reflection that now she bad 1 not even one portion of the -broken coin. As to that which had gone to { the king, she felt fairly sure that she . might regain It. As to that which had , been taken from ber by force by Count Frederick, she was far as ever from its possession. "The simplest way Is the best," said she once more. "IJ1 go back there again." “I was not so fortunate as to find monsieur the count at home before," ®he explained to the attendants who met her at the door. ■Monsieur the count has gone out but now.” A sudden resolution came to Kitty's ’ mind even as a sudden flush came to her cheek. “So? Then I will wait his coming. ' If you please, the apartments of mon­ sieur the count." The man left her. and she closed the door. An Instant later she was at work j turning over the articles on the ' dresser, peering here and there, look­ Ing this wry and that—and unsuccess­ fully. But meantime the attendant who had left her, anxious to'be of service ' to his master, sent out posthaste to | summon Count Frederick to his re- . turn. He met tbe count himself, and । yet another attendant, upon the point of entering the palace. The newcomer , was talking to the count excitedly. "Excellency, I tell you tbe woman Is outwitting you. She sent her half the coin this very morning—sent it to* the king by special messenger. I saw it—I felt it in tbe envelope, I am sure. There is some plot afooL And I brought the neus as soon as possible, but have searched for you long." “Come," said Frederick, and he hastened the more when be met the messenger advising him of Kitty's presence In the palace. Her search still uncompleted. Kitty heard footsteps approaching, and turned desperately like some trapped animal. There was no escape—the narrow window, as she knew, was two stories above tbe court below. And even as she stepped to the door she met there the smiling, sardonic face of Count Frederick himself. The honor is mine, mademoiselle!" said he with icy politeness. “True. I had not expected you.” Shamefaced, confused, for once un­ able to make any explanation, Kitty could but stand and stare at him. An Instant later she heard the dick of the lock and the passing ot footsteps in tho hall once more. She was alone! She was a prisoner! She sat alone, helpless, unanswered Kitty swiftly conceived a plan which her cries lor help, until she waa uttershe fancied would afford greater safe­ revolution at this momevL This great ty for the cherished coin.

"I am a prisoner here—they have locked me in—there is no way out Help me!” Roleau’s own presence tn the palace she did not at the moment undertake to explain. As a matter of fact, he had but that day come in from the camp of the banditti, where he had bee", detained. . "Walt,” he cried. "I will show you.” Au Iron grating, with the stairs of a fire escape, led down directly in front of Roleau’s window.

"Jump,” be cried; "it is safe.” An instant later she was on the iron grating and Into the window, and Ro­ lean, gaunt, unshaven, smiling, her friend and rescuer, had led her to the door.

If so, would not feigned totoxicatfon serve wall to discover the other's nature? Reasoning thus, King Michael with small exertion of histrionic art man­ aged to give an excellent Imitation to his friend of a monarch far gone in wine, Frederick, pleading fatigue aud thirst, piled him farther, and Michael apparently yielded, using still such arts as served him for the time be­ ing. When, not too long before the ap­ pointed hour of midnight, Frederick left the palace, he left behind him as he was assured, a monarch hopelessly fuddled. So the lights flamed on at all the windows of the Winter palace. Suddenly the music broke, crashed and swept'into the national air. A murmur went aboutl Tho king! Tho dancers hastened back to the sides ot the room. AD eyes turned toward the great entrance. Under the festooned flags, escort­ ed by hlx uniformed officers, himself wearing all his decorations and garbed as a king should be, there appeared King Michael of Gretzhoffen. The hour of midnight struck. Tho eyes of more than one man on tho great dancing floor—inchidlng those of Count Frederick of Gretzhoffen— looked at the king amazed. Here was no staggering monarch, maudlin In his cups, come to make a spectacle of himself before his people. No, ho walked straight as any. And behind him from the street there came not shouts of derision, but something of welcome, of confidence—a pitiful ex­ pression of a people willing yet long­ er to endure a king. At the king's side, her band on bls arm, there walked the figure of a tall and beautiful woman, arrayed—as were all those others present—In a costume of black and whlto-r-s tall young woman whom not many of those present recognk^. A few passed the word, “The American!" \ The music of the royal anthem ceased. An Instant and the orchestsa broke out once more In the sensuous strains of a southern waltz. King Michael as yet did not dance, but he gave word that the ball should pro­ ceed. A uniformed officer of the court now approached Count Frederick as he stood not far removed from the royal presence. "Monsieur, the count,” said he de­ ferentially. "I have had for some hours In my possession this package which I have not opened. It is marked to be presented to bls majesty at mid­ night here. Do you think it should be delivered ?" Even as they spoke the king him­ self, accompanied, in accordance with hfs request, by the young woman who In his own apartments that evening Michael the king had pasted the time in somewhat preoccupied fashion Left alone, and hence unhappy In his coun welcomed the announcement of the chBmberla'.n who advised him Qt the preBence of the Count Sachio of Grahaffen. who wished to pay his com pliments to the king. "Come then, my dear count.' said Michael to him. "You are very wel­ come at this hour.

Columbus; Ga., Nov. 23.—Ten per­ sons are known to be dead and twelve Injured as tho result of a collision on the Central ot Georgia railroad about eight miles from Columbus. Passen­ ger train No. 2, from Birmingham to Macon, collided headon with a special train carrying the Con T. Kennedy Carnival company from Atlanta to Columbus. The wreck caught Are immediately after the crash. Victim Begs for Death. Tho known dead include Fred Kempf, proprietor of one of the shows, and his wife, who were burned to death while onlookers were powerless to rescue them. Mrs. Kempfs body was recovered. Rescuers found Kempf with his body half free. He bagged trainmen to kill' him rather than let him burn to death. Frantic efforts were made to rescue him, but without avail. » The Kennedy shows had completed a week's engagement in Atlanta and were to open Tuesday In Columbus. Error Caused Wreck. The engineers of both trains mirac­ ulously escaped death. The passenger train, it is said, had orders to take a siding and await the carnival special, but by error ran in on the main line and started for Macon. - . Baptist Church.

Chlcago, Nov. 23.—Where are the freight cars? This question is agitat­ ing shippers In Chicago. It implies a situation of freight-car congestion, which, unless remedied at once, threatens to paralyze the country's shipping Industry. The shortage in the United States Is 35,000 cars. Ac­ cording to freight traffic managers in Chicago, the condition at Atlantic and gulf ports is acute. Thousands of freight cars, loaded with goods for Eu­ rope. Australia and the Orient, are side-tracked. Meanwhile the coun­ try's gigantic crop lies in elevators and granaries, with no means avail­ able for adequate shipment should the farmers wish to move IL The threat­ ened congestion Is attributed to the lack of bottoms at American ports.

As she read the situa­ tion, it carried something of defeat to her. An instant ago she herself had dominated the scene. Otherwise now; for Count Frederick gave her a somewhat sarcastic smile. It was the time of bis triumph and of her discomfiture. “Mademoiselle Is distrait?'- said he. ’She Is not dancing—she will return to her betel, perhaps? What can one do for mademoiselle?" Kitty turned toward hlui calmly. "If I might ask :ae of you gentle­ men to secure my car for me?" Count Frederick smiled and bowed as he turned away. But Kltly. was nct.so soon to leave tbe great salon of the palace that night She passed toward the entrance slowly, caught in the crush and confu­ sion of others who wore crowding out in tbe fiasco of the much-vaunted black gnd white balk For the time, she found herself in the shelter of a great column, where she was willing enough to pause. As she halted here she heard voices just behind her—one deep voice, which it seemed to her she had surely heard oefore. ’It is a pity that the affair did not come off tonight, your excellency," she neard another whisper ncai^ely. “We nave everything tn our owu hands now, I have ail the plans cf the forti­ fications. the maps ot the avenues, tbe specifications for each street crossing. It would nave been entirely simple for the army of Grahoffen* to marchi through this ramsnacxle city as it. Uked.” “Yes!" broke in the deep voice। which haunted Kitty's -icmory, "1 sup­ pose so; but what would we do if we could not pay our troops the next day? How much oetter off than Gretz­■ hoffen would-then oe our own case" No, Frederick is right in bls main plan. The throne alone Is worth noth­ ing—it Is worthless In bls kingdomi or in our kingdom, or in any other— a poverty-stricken kingship is ao bustness for any man. Why hav* you not a diagram ot the treasure’s burial place—with that, now, the matter would be somewhat different tonight." "Hush!” she heard the ether voice whisper. Apparently warned, at least, by their suspicions, they moved away, although Kitty shifted her own posi­ tion so that her presence .was. not known. Was It Count Sachlo's voice she had beard—was he, the king’s friend. Count Frederick’s friend, tbe worst traitor of all, and was he also plot­ ting for tbe restoml on of the two lost bits of Gretznoffen coin? "Which way should she turn now? To Frederick? Impossible. To Mi­ chael? Equally impossible. The two men whose talk she had overheard passed now from behind the pillar toward the Interior ot tbe palace. Apparently they were known there and welcome, for surely they were not stopped by any of the king’s guards or chamberlains, and Kitty her­ self, equally well identified, passed readily just behind them.

But the ’news failed to interest him somehow tonight: aud as twilight came on and the room darkened, he found himself staring into the grate fire. How many thing* one can imagine in the flame of a grate fire! And, as the man sat there all huddled In the big armchair, all the dear days of the dead past came trooping out ot the coals. An office room he saw first, with himself sitting at a desk and a fair-haired girl at a typewriter In the corner. The girl was poorly dressed but the sweetness of her smile capti­ vated the man at the desk. And in the next picture he heard the man asking the girl to become his wife. A hillside flooded with moonlight he be­ held next—the picture ot an evening from out their honeymoon, with them Bitting on that hillside in the shadow of the tall. dark, sweet-smell­ ing pines that loomed up as a back­ ground. Here there were no more visions for a time, while the man sat staring dry-eyed into the fire. The scene of the next picture was laid in the sitting room. She was in a low rocker by the window, sewing on something soft and white. Every once in a while she looked out of the window. Through the window be saw an auto stop in front of the bouse, and the man who got out and entered the house was himself. She heard hi* step and sat with her hands loosely crossed on tho sewing as be entered the room and stepping behind the rocker, put his two hands over her eyes. Then she drew down his face to hers and kissed him on both cheeks and then on the forehead and eyes and mouth. At this. Harlan buried his head on his arm, while a dry sob shook his throat. "Oh. Nadine. Nadine, why did you leave me!” he sobbed He turned from the flaming coals and his eye fell upon a Christmas tree all decked with shining ornaments It was a real tree. He knew it was there for the child; and was annoyed at the thought of the cause of her death. He lit hir pipe and leaned back for a smoke. But through the blue smoke haze the tree became an airy phantom dream-tree, A ladder leaned up against it and at the top of tbe ladder, high up. and half hidden by tbe pungent green boughs, stood a golden-haired woman. And he was standing beneath the tree, steadying the ladder with both hands. She was putting the last touches to the tree.

The News Failed to Interest Him. inside of a stuffy car. The street at least held a variety of things to divert one's thoughts. Christmas decorations were on all ths buildings; wreaths dangling broad red ribbons hung in most windows and every corner was a jumble of green and red where the flower venders were selling holly, while “Merry Christmas!” he heard on every Bide. Great bunches of cherry laurel and eucalyptus boughs made a veritable canopy over the flower venders’ stands, where flashed red and white and yellow carnations, red and green Christmas wreath* and holly. “Holly here, mister; only 15 cents a bunch, two for two bits. Take a bunch home to your wife." and a flower ven­ der poked a bunch of holly into Har­ lan's face. “No, no!” he cried, brushing the vender aside; and walked on. At last, unable to stand it longer be jumped Into a waiting taxi and called out his home address. At first he peered from out the taxi; but every window seemed to hold a Christmas wreath and be soon gave up glancing out tbe window to stare, straight before him into the dim­ ness of the cab. When the taxi stopped, he sprang out; paid ths tare, and let himself into the house with M> latch-key. A woman tn the white apron of a nurse-maid was just ascending the broad staircase a* be came into the halt She had a child with her but Harlan did not see the child; the nurse was too quick in running up the stairs. *Tm sick of seeing that woman slink away UJce e thief every time I enter a room where she's had the child. Why under the sun don’t she stay away from this part of^the house al­ together Wto Tve ordered her tof grumbled tho man. “Look, sweetheart, how bright the star is! Ah, dear, next Christmas the baby will be six months old. just old enough to notice things; and I’m sure he will notice this star; now won’t he? Don't you thlnjc so, dear?” “Come down. Nadine, '•ome down; I am afraid you will full." be hcaid himself cry, and then as she laughing­ ly descended the ladder, he clasped her in his arms before she reached the bottom and kissed her again and again. "You big story teller.” she laughing­ ly reproved him. "you weren't a bit afraid I'd fall, you just wanted to hug mo!” "What if I did? Now what are you ■ going to do about it?" he was djmanding—when the girl faded, and that dwam picture of himself In other days! vanished and nothing was left hut the | Christmas tree. Harlan pulled his chair away from the fire one ?ver to the window, and. sinking back into its depths, he j watched the glimmer of the windows In the houses across the street and . their soft shine on the pavement. I He must have dozed a long time, for when he awoke the arc lights In the street were lit and a bright shaft of light fell across the room, and pres­ ently into this shaft of light came stumbling a little white-robed figure. It was a little boy in his nightgown. He walked over to the Christmas tree and toyed playfully with the orna­ ments dangling from the lower branches. "Pretty, pretty things," be kept say­ ing over and over In a soft little voice. Awakened from a dreamless slum­ ber, the first thing Jack Harlan's mind reverted to was the dream picture of his wife in the Christmas tree. And this was the child, bis child and hers. He heard her voice again. “Next Christmas he will be six months old, just old enough to notice things, and he will notice the star; It is so bright” Had he noticed it that first lone Christmas when everything was so desolate in that household ? Ah, there had been no tree! And the next Christmas, when the baby was a year and six months old, the nurse had asked if she might get a tree and Har­ lan had said “No.** This year she had bought one without asking, and Har­ lan felt thankful to her and strangely glad. What was the baby saying to him­ self? “I wanted to see the star, the star, but nurse wouldn't let me wait 'cause my papa was cornin’. An’ now the star's all gone; It’s all dark an* gone out an’ I don’t see it no more—no more.” The child broke Into a little huddled heap, sobbing In the shadows at the foot of the tree, and a stray ray of light coming through the hall door fell upon his fair head. ✓ With a stifled ery of remorse and pity Harlan gathered the trembling little form tenderly In his arms and pointed out tbe tinsel star at the top of the tree, while the tears of the child mingled with his. And a great peace filled his soul.

Heavy white linen (or cotton in cer­ tain weaves) embroidered with light colored floss, make simple and elegant dresser sets that will delight the heart of the neat housewife. These sets consist of dresser scarf and pincush­ ion cover usually, but glove and hand­ kerchief cases may bo made to match and added to them.The scarf is a length of the linen having scalloped edges buttonhole stitched with light colored floss. A scroll and flower pattern is embroid­ ered at each end and at the center ot the scarf, on one side. A small oblong pincushion is cov­ ered with two pieces of linen, pne smaller than the other, as shown in the picture. These are buttonhole stitched in scallops about the edges and eyelets are worked tn them. A scroll and flow­ er pattern is embroidered in the small­ er piece. They are joined by narrow satin ribbon threaded through tho eye­ lets and tied in little bows. BRIDGES S THE December night closed across tho desolate moor, tho snow ceased falling, the clouds broke, and a bril­ liant moon shed its silver light across the wide stretches of rolling white­ ness. With the change, it began to freeze fiercely, coating the sodden drifts with a crisp film of ice. At every step Mike Dempsey’s tired feet broke through this coating, and sank deep into soft stuff beneath, making the traveling so terribly hard that, in spite* of the bitter cold, perspiration stood in beads on his thin, brown He was breathin- hard, and evi­ dently desperately weary, yet he nev­ er stopped for a moment, though now' and then, as he plowed his way on­ wards, he would turn his head and cast an apprehensive glance back over bls shoulder. Had anyone been near enough to Watch him, they would easily have un­ derstood bls haste. The drab livery plentifully besprinkled with broad ar­ rows marked him as one of the state's unwilling guests. As a matter of fact. Mike Dempsey bad been for the last three years a prison inmate, and It Luncheon Set of Silk Muslin was with the Intention of escaping an­ other seven years of unappreciated hospitality that he bad, a few hours previously, "done a bunk" under cov­ er of the sudden snowstorm. “I’ve puzzled thim screws, that's wan thing sure," he muttered to him­ self, and in spite of bls fatigue a slight chuckle escaped his thin lips. "But faith, I’ve puzzled mesilf, too, and I don't know where I am no more than Adam. “If I cud only git a landmark of some sort!" he went on. "Eanst I cud find my road to the railway, I’d win clear. Mike Dempsey wasn't a navvy siren years for nothing." He crunched his slow way across a flat valley, jumped a little brook and pushed up the steep slope beyond. A gleam of light In the next valley Something new in luncheon sets Is attracted his attention. It camo made of stiff white silk muslin, very from a lighted window, and there was Email gilt cord and white and green something comforting to the lonely water color paints. It consists of a fugitive In the red glow cast upon centerpiece and twelve dollies to the glittering snow. Without hesita­ match and is made in a conventional­ tion, he started downhill toward it Presently he was cautiously ap­ ized chrysanthemum design. The dollies are small fepllcas of the ecu- proaching a small house, which stood In a tiny garden surrounded by a low lerplece. A large circle is cut from the mus- I dry-stone wall. There was a gate In Un for the centerpiece and a few front but Mike preferred to approach French knots, of dark yellow embroid- ■ ery silk, are worked in the center to ; represent the stamens. Three rows^f j petals are outlined on the centerpiece ' with white paint and the tiny gilt cord is sewed with yellow silk thread i along the outline of each petal. ' Thu petals are crowded a little at one side to allow three light green leaves to be painted in. A little white paint is brushed in at the point of each petal End the muslin about the edge trimmed away from them. The doilies are made in the same way but on a smaller scale. 4> £ Roll for Doilies of Cretonne A dolly roll makes a pretty gift for the housewife and is useful to her in more ways than one. It keeps her doilies fresh and easy to get at Nothequally pretty gifts cost so little. The rolls are usually made in two lengths, one for centerpieces and one for doilies. To make one a strong pasteboard tube, such as used for mailing is procured. Circular pieces of cretonne are stretched over the ends and pasted down on the roll. _ A strip of tbe cretonne as wide a* the/tube is long is then cut off of any length desired. Ono end of this strip is trimmed tn a curve and the other left straight Tho curved end and sides of the strip are bound with Tbe straight end is pasted to the roll, ths cretonne wound once about The cretonne used to make the roll shown in the picture is a striped pat­ ten* with small Cowers scattered over the surface.

Raising himself till his bead wm on a level with the sill, he peered through the uncurtained window into a barely furnished living room, light­ ed by a great fire of glowing turf. ’A couch stood in one corner, on which lay a youngish man whose ban­ daged head showed him to bo the victim of some accident On a chair beside hinw sat a sweet-faced wornplayed two children—a curly-haired boy of about seven, and a chubby girl a year or so younger.

He and Rosamund had pored over them all winter, and they had agreed that the house would be perfect Nelson, the architect, bad almost lost bls pa­ tience as the young lovers ordered first one change and then another in the plans of the house. And now the worm had turned. The temperamental Mr. Nelson- bad de­ clared that it wm an utter Impossibil­ ity to build a flight of stairs in the manner directed by the future Mrs. Corning. „ Now. Rosamund Delway was tem­ peramental as well as Oscar Nelson; therefore, when Philip broke the news to her over the telephone and hinted that they must sit tight and accept the plans M they were without fur­ ther changes, Rosamund promptly in­ formed him that she simply must in­ sist upon changing the pantry to the other side of the kitchen because she had decided that the pantry space would be larger and, facing the east end of the house, she could have what she had always desired—a pantry win­ dow overrun with morning glories. “It would be so cute to see them every morning,” she purred over the wire. "It will be cute to see Nelson's face when you offer him that argument!” he chuckled. “I don't intend to see him—you must tell him, Phil!" “I? Not on your life, darling." And he had followed this Inelegant remark with such wise reasoning that Rosa­ mund flew Into a pretty temper and told him he could live alone in his old house.

That is bow it happened that Philip was alone when a messenger boy brought him a small, square, white package sealed with red wax bearing Rosamund's monogram. “Walt, boy." ordered Philip, break­ ing the seals, but the lad was half­ way down the outer office. Philip glared at the sight of the en­ gagement ring he had given Rosa­ mund. So the engagement was broken —and she wouldn’t listen to reason. She had said, "No answer required." He locked the ring in his safe and Mt down and wrote a note to Oscar Nelson, architect ■ "Dear sir,” Philip ticked out on the typewriter with one finger, "upon fur­ ther consideration I have decided to suspend operations upon my new house on Elm highway.

And on tbe outside of tbe envelope he wrote a- line under the address— “No answer required.” At leMt he would be spared Nelson's hotheaded protests. Then he rang for a messenger boy. Out on Elm highway, where a charm­ ing suburb was forming, a little brown shingled house had its eyes shuttered and Its doors padlocked. People who knew-all about the build- i। ers wondered what had happened to stop operations, until tbe news filtered I through various sources that the en­ gagement was broken and tbe little brown house would not be occupied this summer. So the neighbors on Elm highway ceased to watch for the happy lovers, although Mrs. Bruce Wade declared she had seen Philip Coming stalking around the unfin­ ished house in the moonlight. One rainy day Philip slammed his desk cover and. shrugging on a rain­ coat. went for a tramp along Elm highway. The steady downpour soothed his restless spirit, and the fresh, damp air was grateful after tbe close atmosphere ot the office. He turned into the gate and went around to tbe back door. Tbe sound of his coming was drowned in the fall­ ing shower. Someone was standing on the back porch, peering through the glass pan­ els of the kitchen door—a forlorn lit­ tle figure In a raincoat, with the hood drawn tightly over its bead. Philip recognized Mie figure—that raincoat and that head he would have known among a thousand, even had they b£en concealed under a bushel basket, so keen are the eyes of love. He placed his hands on her shoul­ ders and turned her right about, her face close to his own- -a pale, thin lit­ tle face It was with wistful blue eyes that brightened and then dimmed with tears at sight of him. "I was—only—looking," she fal­ tered. “At our house?" asked Philip softly. She trembled beneath his touch.

The sweet notes of church chimes throbbing out melodiously, “Peace on earth, good will to men," announced it; laughter, smiles, gay greetings among the street crowds emphasised it Two men going in the same direction, strangers one to the other, yet oddly mutually Involved in a fateful circum­ stance of the hour, unconsciously lessened their gbit to catch the final notes from the distant belfry. He in advance, swarthy, evil-eyed, bearing a neatly covered box under his arm, uttered an ugly, sinister chuckle. "Before that hour strikes again— this!" he hissed malevolently rather than uttered, and he tapped the box and strode on, grftn with some profound purpose, The man ten paces behind him, young, handsome, neat, but none too fashionably clad, carried a thin, square package suggesting a canvas, for his was an artist's ffice, and hu was an artist—Chase Merwyn. Had ho spoken his heart's thought he would have whispered softly: "Before this hour strikes again 1 shall have said good-by to all I love." He of the sinister semblance strode on and turned into a fashionable resi­ dence thoroughfare. Unconsciously like a shadow, the other kept almost even pace with him. Under an arc lamp Chase Merwyn paused to look over the package he carried. His ob­ jective point was a mansion, a daz­ zling place of light and luxufy, and before it the sinister-looking man had halted a poorly-dressed fellow strug­ gling along without an overcoat, and blue and pinched with the cold. The twain were conversing and the man with the box handed it to the other, pointed to the doorway of the mansion and fTjjpassed on.

Slowly Merwyn descended the steps. He paused for a few moments on the pavement to take a last look at the home that held so much for him. A slinking figure approached him from the shadows. "Mister," he stammered, “I’m poor and I need the gold coin a man gave me for delivering a box to that house tonight, but—” , "Ah, I remember!" observed Mer­ wyn. recalling man and circumstance. “A gold coin is so rare for a trifling service," resumed the other, "that I wm suspicious.

"The man who warned you told us enough to have us guess the truth," spoke Ethel, confusedly changing the subject, and then she followed the glance of Merwyn. His eyes rested on the mistletoe right over bis head. "Why this is Christmas morning, sure enough,” fluttered Esther, "and we are the first—” . ■'Ethel,” spoke Merwyn irresistibly, "1 love you!"

Frederick and his new passenger had come in a swift car from Gretzhoffen direct to the lodge of Count Sachio, beyond the neutral lands. And hav­ ing arrived at the chalet Rudolph had lost no time in flinging himself from the car and hastening to explain to his master that absence which he knew would be so resented. Seeing Roleau there In advance of him—and bound— bis own rage overcame him and he lost not aq instant in casting himself upon Count Sachlo's prisoner. This was not altogether a fortunate matter for any; Roleau, surprised at the attack, and by thia time somewhat in possession of recuperated powers, made so stern a heave at his bonds that he broke them; and thereupon ad­ dressing himself to the combat once more, soon gave Rudolph all he liked to do. Meantime Count Frederick, thinking it well to guard all exits of the chalet, himself had gone to the rear, and had found tho open window through which Kitty and the stranger had escaped. What he now saw. therefore. In the main room, was his own late prisoner engaged in conflict with Count Sachlo's prisoner. “They find him a Tartar!" exclaimed he to himself; for al that moment Ro­ leau, casting Rudolph aside, made for the o'uter door of the chalet. “Stop!" cried Count Sachlo loudly, as others would have followed him. "It is useless! Walt—he has not the coin. Why waste time on him!” They fell back as the count once more took charge of this complicated situation. “As for you. Rudolph,” he exclaimed, "you have come late, and you hare failed—you have not the coin that you were sent to bring me.” "Excellency, no—1 have failed- That man"—he pointed tn the door where Roleau had fled—"he and a young woman caught me even as’ 1 was searching for it where you directed me.

His name in truth was Blake—a ren­ egade Englishman, who had for some time bel >nged to the underworld of the capital of Gretzhoffen. If. animat­ ed by »tme greater ambition of his own. he now and then joined the bands of the desert rovers, hia real prefer­ ence was for the underworld of the city, where, with his comrades of the cheaper thieving gentry, he might for the most part smoko or loaf iu Idle­ ness. not concerned In deeds of activ­ ity or daring, it Jiad been by mere chance of his prowling nature that he had learned something about the own ershipof the broken coin—had guessed that it might have some value and had resolved to possess himself of it.

It was a choice band of kindred souls who rose to greet him as he entered. They asked him what cheer. : “What have I done—what have I taken?" Swaggering, he pushed them aside and threw; on the table in the center of tbe room a bit of coin which he took from his pocket ' “Something, comrades, I am think­ ing." A roar of laughter broke from them. , as, a motley group, they surrounded him. “He is a jolly jester, is it not so, my brothers!” exclaimed one. "A coin! If it were whole It might be worth per­ haps a lira or so, but broken—it is worthless. What can we get for this rin a bank, my brothers? So, Blake, Is thia your day's work!" “You may laugh, comrades,” said he, “all you like; at' the same time, I venture you that coin will be worth something to us before we are donewith it." "What is it?" exclaimed one, curi­ ously, examining the inscription. “An old Roman coin, do you think?" "True, there is a mystery about it, my bullies, never doubt that It is a “Ho. brothers!” cried the ruffian who mystery that will pay well when solved.

So here I am.” Now, while these thieves of the city all respected through their fears. He were holding their little conference, flung himself- from his horse now and their bolder brethren of the desert, strode into the lighted circle. "What now, fellows!

"You need say not more.* The er­ rand is enough to interest me—be­ cause now 1 shall Jtave that fellow Blake where I have longed to find him. He shall not ride with us again. But come,” he added. They found their way through the darkening streets tn the purlieus of Gretzhoffen town. Under the leader­ ship of the chief lain they threaded street after street, alley after alley, until at length their party descended into a steep gully in a less important: portion of the city. A faint light; showed through the chinks of a whll. which seemed to be the facing ollabank, but which really concealed some sort of den within. “Yonder, excellency," whispered Landozi. “is the place where they hole up—like rats in a sewer—and they have no more principles—they are worthy of no more. Come, my men, close in.” • He pushed against the door round which shone the gleams of light, and hastened into a sort of passageway. Their entry attracted no attention for the time. Only two of the gang remained, the others having departed on one errand or other of their own. 'When Kitty and her companion lookdji through the little window, which gavetfr-upon the recess under the bluff, they saw sit­ ting close to the table two me3— Blake, the renegade, and another of his band. The keen eye of Kitty de­ tected Blake's hand lying upon tie table—and near it the object which she sought—the missing coin! "Quick," whispered Landozi, and as he spoke he broke Into the room. Without hesitation he flung hims&f upon Blake, and Kitty, wishing td be of service, and finding no better means, caught up ar. empty bottle which stood near and dealt so inter­ esting a blow upon the head of the remaining ruffian as to put him out of the combat for the time.

Bar Practice. A cockney solicitor, who was charac­ teristically mixed up la the use of his "b's" happened to meet one of the wits of the American bar. The Englishman. commenting on the legal profession ot Philadelphia, said that its members were very proficient and learned, but covers, slipper bags, candle snaaes and other little furnishings that are required for men’s rooms. In the pic­ ture a dresser set Is shown. Including a scarf, pincushion and candle shade. The cretonne shows a red rose and green foliage against a black and white striped ground. So decided a pattern is to be most sparingly used, and the scarf is therefore’ only bordered with the cretonne. A square pincushion’is covered first on one side with a small square ot the cretonne sewed smoothly over IL For । the other side a considerably larger square Is hemmed about the edgesand pinned over the cushion. Tbe candle shade Is made over a wire frame and consists of a circu­ lar piece stretched over the top and sewed to place. A hemmed strip hangs from the edge of the frame to which it is sewed.

A FRIEND'S GREETING. like to be the sort of friend that you have been to me, like to be the help that you've been always glad to be, like to mean as much to yon each minute of the day you have meant, old friend of mine, to me along the way. like to do the big things and the splendid things for you, To brush the gray from out your skies and leave them only blue; like to say the kind things that I so oft have heard And feel that I could rouse your soul the way that mine you’ve stirred. I’d like to give you back the joy that you have given me, Yet that were wishing you a need I hope will never be; I'd like to make you feel as rich as I, who travel on Undaunted in the darkest hours with you to lean upon. I’m wishing at this Christmas time that I could but repay A portion of the gladness that ___ you've strewn along the way. And could I have one wish this year, this only would it be: I'd like to be the sort of friend that you have been to me. —Eddie Guest, in Detroit Free Press. Just come in and look around. If you can’t decide what you would like to give, you’ll certainly find lots of suggestions here. Remember, our high grade candies are only 10 cents per pound.

Old Santa’s Christmas List A woman may worry her life away about the actions of her neighbors without learning that they are doing the same about her. Don't try to butt In on a woman's first quarrel with her husband. She will say everything that can be said without any aid from those more ex­ perienced. * Fashions change the outside ap­ pearance of woman about every fif­ teen minutes, but underneath she re­ mains the same all the time—dear and sweet, or otherwise. Holly Scratches By HARVEY PEAKE EVER look a gift la the cost mark. All that glitters is not diamonds. Mistletoe makes the heart grow fonder. The gift defer: td maketh the heart sick. Belief in Santa Claus is the best poUcy. It is a wise merchant who knows his own goods when they are brought back lor exchan e. To give hideous gifts is human, to f« rgive impossible Gifts make the man, the want of them the fellow. Ono Christmas bargain makes tho whole of womankind spin. Christman bills are stubborn things. Santa Claus is not as red as he is painted. Buy gifts in haste and repent at leisure. Uneasy lies the head that's trying to make twenty dollars buy forty gifts. And thereby hangs a stocking. Every Christmas tree must stand on its own bottom. Gifts are seldom what they seem. N Easily Made Animal Toys That yellow-haired dollle that’s going to Molly Is one present she might have had.

The various means of contracting, restricting, and preventing disease were graphically Illustrated. Sta­ tistics show that a victim succumbs to tuberculosis every two and onehalf minutes. This death toll was registered on an apparatus which operated throughout the convention. The exhibit also contained a model of a sewage plant for houses not con­ nected with a municipal system. It exemplified the method of purify­ ing the sewage before It enters the ground, the only precaution in the prevention of Infection. The fly men­ ace was'effectively set forth by means of charts. Few people reaIlze what a deadly enemy the Inno­ cent-looking house fly is. The pos­ sibilities of contamination and infectlon through the fly were presented by a "The Fly’s Air Line" model. The spread ot typhoid through the medium of the streams of the state was also graphically demonsratod. Two cases of typhoid fever in a riv­ er camp, where ho sanitary precautlons were taken, were traced as the source of Infection which caused an epidemic in । community several । miles distant. Perhaps the most Impressive ex­ hibit was that which portrayed the progress of tuberculosis in sapping the life of a healthy person. The tuberculosis germ was seen to reduce an Imaginary victim to a skeleton In a brief half minute. Another men­ ace to health which was emphasized In the exhibit. Is the drinking cup. it explained what havoc may be work­ ed by this utensil in the hands of a hobo, or any other unclean or dis­ eased person. The exhibit made it very clear to everybody who witnessed it, that the battle against preventable diseases cannot be won without the united ef­ fort of the citizens of the state.

Men, women and children were all smiles as' they looked him over, but too polite to linger and embarrass him. The proprietor of the store, ob­ serving the slight halt in the passing procession, beckoned to the stranger. “My friend," he spoke rapidly, .“could I have a word with you?” "A dozen, if it suits you." respond­ ed the other heartily, and followed his interviewer inside the store. "It's just this," explained the store :man: "we've got a Banta Claus—see ;him yonder, in that booth, shaking •hands with the children?" ' "I see him." nodded the Westerner.

Directed by a lad from the store, he was piloted to the Moody mcnsion, admitted and shown Into a room off the main parlor, where a Christmas tree stood, loaded and ablaze. All around it the hired Santy gazed keenly, almost eagerly. He appeared to be scanning the various framed por­ traits on the wall and seemed disap­ pointed. as if In that inspection he missed something be had expected to find.

Dated, Nashville, Mich., December When the Joy of Your Kiddles Brings Tender Memories of Years Ago. In these strenuous shopping days, writes Louis James, have you caught yourself remembering suddenly. In all sorts of queer, unexpected places, all sorts of queer, half forgotten things? Have you remembered how these days before Christmas are the wonderful days in the life ot the child, more wonderful days, perhaps, than any that are to come? You know that yourself, iou can't help recalling how time went by those days before the great day. You re­ member how each day seemed some­ how more wonderful than the one be­ fore, each day a prelude of real joy to that first marvelous moment of Christmas morning, when, attar a night of little if any sleep, you scram­ bled up and stood breathless on the threshold of the room which had been forbidden you all those interminable hours that went before. The child you take with you through the wonderlands of the modern toy department wants what you did. The little girl stops before the baby doll, wide eyed, still with desire. The boy stands hooded with happiness before an ark In which Is every imaginable creation. You remember what a small thing your own was, a fourth the else. But his joy is no greater than yours.

Sylvia, with face aflame and a heart of Ice, laughed at her own reflection in/the mirror. "Liar! Coward! Cheat!” she taunted herself. Robert Larson came back America alone. His bride was rest­ ing in an unknown grave in some Al­ pine crevasse. Long months afterward Sylvia met him riding in the park. The scene of their meeting was a sheltered bridlepath. Both drew rein. Then Robert poured out his heart to her and asked her to marry him. He had never ceased to love her, he con­ fessed. He did npt attempt to excuse his hasty marriage to Madge Fenton; that explained itself. "You will not want to marry me when I tell you all, Robert," said Syl­ via gravely. Then she told him about the two letters she had sent "Of course I realised that you had made a mistake." he said eagerly.

Since the time of the third century Christmas ha* been celebrated at a day of joy in honor of the birtfi of Christ, our only perfect man. It has ever been our policy to speak of Christmas In tones of gentle­ ness. and love, and compassion, and humility; ?a words of praise and thank­ fulness for the blessings of the year that would soon pass into history. Now we approach the glorious Christmas day with feelings of sorrowand sadness, and regret, for we are soon to witness the death of a year of death. Today, when we should revel in the Joy of living, we are consumed with compassion fur our brothers who arc perishing in the blood soaked trenches of Europe. We are weighed down with sorrow for the unfortunate women and chil­ dren who must bear the burdens of the greatest and most destructive human blight the world has ever known. Our hearts arc saddened with regret that the meek and gentle spirit of the Nazarine is forgotten in a wild and bloody carnage ot death and destrac­ tion. Nineteen hundred and fifteen, a year of death, will soon reach its own fitting end—in death. There comes a time in the life of every person when neither tongue nor pen can express the language of the heart. . ’ It is so with us as we write of this Christmas day. Our face should be turned toward the Christ, yet in our vision we sec the crimson stained fields of Europe, the famine ridden land of Mexico, the dying race of the Christian Armenians, on every hand the grim and terrible spectre of harsh, violent, sudden and agonizing death. ’ Death of a year of death!

"True, your majesty, she has dis­ appeared, It seems. I do not, myself, know where she is.” “You have made inquiry- at her usual place of residence—some hotel, was It not? An absurd thing, for such a woman as herself to live in a hotel." “At her hotel,” replied Count Fred­ erick, “they know nothing. They tell \ me that she comes and goes at all hours, and leaves no word'as to her return. Nearly two weeks ago she left, and has not yet returned." “There may be many reasons," con­ tinued the count "for her continued absence. Perhaps the business upon which she came is not yet completed. Perhaps her employers have called her away. Perhaps she may have been intimidated by certain obstacles in her way?" "By whom. Count Frederick?" "Well, she has seemed curious her­ self regarding the coin. Perhaps she knew somewhat of it—” “So she also has studied this trinket that we gave her? Very well—we meant it to prove of Interest." "Doubtless. But regarding the coin so many threats have been made—•” "Threats? What threats? What do you know of any?" ‘Many things come to my ears, your majesty, but I strive to keep them from your own cars so much as may be wbeh I find them unwel- • come." “The most unwelcome thing that could come to us. my d»’ar Frederick, Is the absence of this young woman : now. Where, think you, she may be?" “I could not guess, unless perhaps she may have returned to her own country—in which case we shall never see her again, your majesty. We can make examination of the passenger lists of all sailings within the last two weeks. I will look Into that. If she has not gone back to her own coun­ try, she either remains in this some­ where, or in some other near by.” “Ycu do not mean Grahoffen?” Count Frederick nodded. "That is what I do mean. In truth, your majesty, there are Grahoffen spies In this city—they were even at your ball. Perhaps they concern themselves with this young lady. Why not? If they the young girt, Rachlo grew somewhat; grave. "This,” said he, “Is a matter for the king." But the king waa in no too good hu­ mor over all these failures. "What, Sachio," Mid be, “y<?u come to me once more with these old wornan’a tales? If your time is so short before your secret is. discovered, then all the more reason tor diligence on your part. It Is not the business of kings to accept reasons for failure in performance. The girl is still avail­ able—complete your errand with her —bring to me the reading of the coin. I know well ehough that if Count Frederick comes he will be different from his' klpg,” Therefore once more Sachio went back to his bootless interviews with Kitty, once more pleading with her to give' him all knowledge she had of the coin. And once more Kitty could no more than reassure him of her own Ignorance of what he wished to know. She heard odds and ends of informa­ tion which taught her which way the wind sat at Grahoffen capital. Some­ times she heard Sachio, again Bartel, again this or that man, speaking freely of the plans at hand. "I told the kir.g," said Bartel one time, speaking to Count Sachio, “that all Is ripe for tho shaking cf the tree. I told him that we have full plans of all their fortifications ond de­ fenses—that their resistance will be but nominal. Cnee we get the Gretz­ hoffen coffers opened, times will be easier in cur country." "Yes, once you do,” rejoined Sachio grimly. "But tell us how!" Kitty, really owing allegiance to neither of these kingdoms, both of which bad done her such repeated in­ justice, hardly stopped to ask herself why she found her own leanings to­ wards Gretzhoffen, the scene of most cf the indignities she had met. She must escape for every reason— so she assured herself. But how? From the windows she had a full view of tiie well-kept grounds of the palace and • of tbe boulevards sur­ rounding it. She stood alone one day staring out on scenes grown familiar to her. But all at once her gaze grew more intent, fixed upon some object not far away. A car was standing at the curb. She did not remember to have seen it there regularly.
