Those who breakfast eight o’clock or later, lunch at twelve and have dinner at six are almost certain to be troubled with indigestion. They do not allow time for one meal to di­ gest before taking another. Not lees than five boars should elapse between meals. If you are troubled with In­ digestion correct your habits and take Chamberlain’s Tablets, and you may reasonably hope for a quick recovery. These tablets strengthen the stomach and enable it to perform its functions naturally. Obtainable everywhere,—Advt. Probably Hot.

Fighting in the The struggles for Czartorysk and Czernowitz are con­ tinuing with unabated ferocity over the Russian Christmas holidays. The efforts of the Germans to outflank the Russians at Bayan, on the frontier east of Czernowitz. and thus relieve the pressure on the latter place has been checkmated by the Russians, according to reports from the front. Fierce fighting occurred In the streets of Czartorysk on the several occasions When the town has changed bands. At present the Russians ap­ pear to be in possession of the place. 175,000 Lost in Drive T The Petrograd official communica­ tion says that the calm on the Czerno­ witz front is due to the huge losses and resulting demoralization of tbe Austro-Hungarian army. That there is some basis for this statement Is evident from the estimate of tbe Hun­ garian newspaper. Pester Lloyd, that the losses on both sides of the Bessa­ rabian battles so far exceed 175,000, or more than the total British losses in the whole Dardanelles campaign. Another Hungarian newspaper states, on tbe authority of a staff re­ port. that the fighting on this front has been the bitterest and bloodiest In the history of die war, both sides sacrificing men in a manner without parallel. Czernowitz (pukowina) is still in the possession of the Austrians, and Is filled with wounded. But the Rus­ sians apparently are directing their main attacks against Sadagora.

The Standard of Service HIS great railroad system is owned by 30,000 stockholders. It is operated by their chosen officers for the public service. It gives employment to 150,000 workers, to whom it pays $118,780,000 annually in wages. For supplies bought from the public it pays out in addition $96,429,454. For taxes alone, $14,293,000 and in interest and dividends on stocks, bonds and other securities held by the public it distributes $43,784,000, making a total annual disbursement in which the public has a direct interest of $273,286,454. These railroad lines and their owners, the communi ties they reach, the millions they serve, and the workers they employ, all have the closest mutual interests. The more these mutual interests are understood and furthered, the greater the degree of service rendered. To be a faithful, efficient, punctual-and dependable public servant, to make every branch of its service the best possible, is the ideal and standard of the NewlbrkGattal Lines Announcement Made by General Head* quarters of Army and In the Hun* Sarian Parliament by Count Tisza— Terms Will Be Discussed at Once.

Announcement of the submission ot the little mountain kingdom was made by general headquarters of the AustroHungarian army and by Count Tisxa, the Hungarian premier before the Hungarian parliament * The premier's announcement caused a tremendous sensation. A deep silence followed his words and then parlia­ ment broke Into commotion. Shouts of Joy made the ancient chamber ring. The news quickly spread to the streets and the entire city joined in the first peace celebration. Montenegro was one of the first na­ tions to enter the war. She recalled her ambassador at Vienna on August 8. 1914, only a few days after the final break between Austria and Serbia. On January 13 the fall of Cetlnje, capital ot Montenegro, was announced. Montenegro was the snialles of the allied countries. Her area was less than 3,000 square miles, but it com­ prised a wild region of mountains and forests which never had bowed knee to an enemy. Her army at the outbreak of the war numbered about 60.000 out of a population of about 225,000. Why go without nice furniture in your home, when a small payment down will furnish it?

Your cancelled checks are receipt* for the bills you hate paid. You need never pay a bill twice if you pay by check. 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 careless­ ness 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 change,” 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 checking account at the bank, you will be given special consideration should you.wish to.borrow money. Your money in the bank keeps the mills running, employ labor, and makes good and prosperous times for all. If you have a checking account you need not- send monev through the malls. You can send your check. If the check is lost your money is still safe in the bank. check is stoleif or forged, vou do not Ipse anything.

The proposed reform is a modification of what is known as the “six-six” plan. It con­ templates an abandonment of the present arrangement of a four-year high school following »n elght-year elementary school and the division of thd twelve grades into two equal parts, six yean* being devoted to elementary subjects and six years to secondary work. The supporters of this plan con­ tend that, since elementary, instruc­ tion purports merely to lay the foun-.' dation of education, it could be easi­ ly compressed within the six year period. On the other hand,- four years are believed to be too short a time in which to give the differenti­ ated instructions which modern con­ ditions render necessary. .The wid­ er range of subject:matter which is now Included in secondary education, requires six years, of study as a min­ imum. Moreover, it has long been a matter of regret that the present organization of'the work in tho seventh and eighth grade is unpro­ gressive and unstimulating, not -to say largely valueless. These years produce aimlessness, inefficiency, and sulleniiess. The six-year plan rec­ ognlzes that the ago of twelve or thirteen, as marking a beginning of puberty and adolescence, requires a freer expression of personality and of endeavor than the present school plan permits. As sponsor for the reform, Prof. Davis points out that a school regime that tails to take account of the changes in character and interests which come upon young people at the beginning of adolescence must fail to provide the training that is most suitable and valuable to thenf. The wave of reform seems to be rap­ idly spreading in Michigan, though few* school authorities have formu­ lated any very positive or definite idea as to just what changes are to bo made. For the purpose of assist­ ing in the work of establishing the proposed reform. Prof. Davis has col­ lected concrete illustrations of the plan as it is being operated in vari­ ous parts of the country. The re­ sults of his investigations have been issued in a university bulletin. II.IIU Our Annual February Clearance Sale Of All Winter Goods Starts Saturday Morning, Feb. 5.

Feb. 8.—Naval affairs were debated in the bouse tor the first time and the Naval academy in­ crease bill was passed by a vote jf 176 to 0. The house also authorized the immediate use of 1500,000 to equip Mare Island Navy yard to begin build­ ing a dreadnaught or battle cruiser, and the expenditure of >100,000 to en­ large facilities at the New York yard.

Neither Mrs. Burt nor myself were among the lucky. We probably bad leas than a hundred dol­ lars between us when hard, biting winter came on. Then Helen—Mrs. Burt—became ill. She would not acknowledge It; she was not altogether Incapacitated from work, but day by day she seemed to fade. -I was shocked when I learned from the lady who sublet the apart­ ments that she was in dire distress. , “It's food she needs, and rest, and care," the good woman advised, and •he gave me some details of the depri­ vations of mother and shild that sad­ dened and then aroused me. From tbe first the little one had taken to me. From the first Mrs. Burt had shown a confiding friendli­ ness that made me proud. I loved her, but 1 never allowed her to suspect it 1 laughed, too, at tbe thought of myself, practically a pauper, offering to take on a new responsibility. 1 did go to Mrs. Burt and set before her the grim condition of our mutual unfortunate environment in plain, naked fact. 1 treated it however, as transient, common to the artistic lot, an experience to be considered lightly. “Better days would come.'* My assumed cheerfulness raised her spirits, but only for a time. She con­ fessed that she was at her last re­ source. She asked mfe to take one.1 of her finished pictures and borrow on[ It, if 1 could not sell IL I stored it1 away In my own room and brought‘ her some money from a fictitiousi money loaner. Thus with the other’ three pictures, and 1 found myself fiatI broke. I shall never forget the evening‘ when I wandered forth from my room1 in search of food for Helen and tbe1 little one. I was desperate.

And never has there been a finer example of what that name of Studebaker guarantees to the buyer than NOW. Studebaker with its GREAT resources, and its enormously increased volume of manufacture, has been able to REDUCE its price to such an extent that it means a big SAVING to every purchaser. And at the same time, “—because it’s a Studebaker”—backed by this gigantic manufacturing institution, the same high quality of the car has been maintained. It has never been Studebaker’s policy to reduce the quality of any product in order to reduce the price. The name of Studebaker has been a guarantee of QUALITY for too many years. And so this car, even at its sharply reduced price, offers MORE room, MORE conveniences, HIGHER quality and even handsomer design than ever before. With the many improvements that have been made in the new model, it is the BIGGEST dollar-for-dollar value that the market has ever seen. Inspect it carefully before you decide on any car. See how much a dollar will buy in a car “—because it’s a Studebaker.” When Detroit, the city that produces more than three-fourths of the cars -manufactured in the United States, shows,by official figures for the entire year of 1915 MORE Stude­ bakers in use on Detroit streets than any other car selling at more than S500 what surer judgment can YOU follow in buy­ ing a car? Think for a minute—think what that Stude­ baker Leadership in Detroit means to YOU. If a friend of yours has a car, you’d take his advice on buying a car in a minute—figure in your own mind what he ought to KNOW. Here's a whole city that KNOWS cars—and knows them better than any other city on the face of the earth. For Detroit’s BIG in­ dustry is making cars. And so many people in Detroit are either directly engaged in the industry or else come into-daily touch with others who are, that knowledge of cars is far more general and EXACT than in any other community. And so when Detroit makes Studebaker its own Preference in cars—no man can over­ look that judgment, whether he's running a farm in Barry county, a ranch in Colorado or a fruit orchard in California. For it means that in the judgment of the city that knows cars BEST, Studebaker gives the top VALUE of the market More than 214,000 Studebaker Automobiles now in use.

In an effort to dig deeper into the cause of motor accidents, the Massa­ chusetts highway commission re­ cently held an open examination for the position of examiner of accidents. A large number of applicants took the examination and the commission will soon appoint several of the men who rank highest, and start them in­ vestigating.

As adopt­ ed, the system provides for three short signals with the horn by the driver approaching another machine from the rear when it is desired to pass or increase speed. If the driver in the front car desires to give per­ mission to pass he will Indicate this with one long signal and when pos­ sible will move to the right side of the road.

He stood laughing as he I was addressing God.” looked up. corner of the room, half moaning In helpless terror. "And yet now, st the last Instant, it was Count Frederick himself to , whom It was given to devise a plan, desperate In itself, yet, as it chanced, effective. His eyes fell upon a great wheel, rusty and long disused, which .thrust, out of one corner of the room. As ho saw it his gaze kindled with the sudden thought which it suggested. He knew what ft was and what it meant—what hope It offered now. "Keep them talking,” he whispered to Kitty, in a quick aside. "Engage them for just a moment—keep them busy—wait." Count Frederick knew that this wheel and the levers beyond con­ trolled' tbe drainage outlet of th‘o great moat which surrounded the rear portion of the castle. Those low­ er gates once opened, there was noth­ ing to prevent flooding of the subter­ ranean passages. The moot waters had been used for that very purpose in the past—so ran tradition—and great bad been the slaughter wrought upon ancient enemies Of Gretzhoffen through that very means. Here they were living In the past—here they de­ manded of the past Its secrets—here they were surrounded by all tbe grim memorials of the past. Why, then, thought Count Frederick, why not use that past and the means that once had been sufficient to it? He laid his hand upon the wheel, j It had not yielded to an arm less pow- ' erful than his, and even his strength i was necessary to Its limit before he • could force it to yield, long disused as , it had been here. But at length It I did turn a little, and then more and yet more. . The result was beyond all calcula­ tion. There came the sound of rip­ pling, and then of rushing waters. It came in the passages back of the in- ' vaders. It filled the stone floors along the corridors. It lapped their feet. It bathed their ankles. It rose swiftly to their knees. And then consternatlon seized upon all those who but now had stood triumphant, taunting, men­ acing. Of a truth, the trapped crea­ tures had turned and wrought their own vengeance. "Quick, get to safety," commanded Frederick now. And even as he and his companions found a little higher level In another chamber whence they could see the work of the wa­ ter* on their foes, those foes them­ selves began to cry out In terror at the mysterious enemy against which they could not battle. “Your Majesty." exclaimed Count Sachio now to the tall figure at bis side—“your majesty!" King Cortislaw it was who had been summoned to see the last struggles of W-e do not want you to cumber our 1 corridors with your dead. Let It be 1 peace then, and this time let your ! word be kept Begone then, and thank i good fortune, and' not your juat de­ i sorts, that you have life left for you. j If any of you remains death shall be ' his fate at once. Decide quickly, my i good Sachio. You have not long to i live. The moat waters are not yet ! touched—they will flood those chan­ j nels In the rock to their very roofs. i I Decide then.” ' "Enough, enough,” cried Sachio, i holding up his hands. , "We submit— we surrender—we agree.” j Count Frederick reversed the wheel. I Little by little, the gurgling and rush­ ing of the waters ceased; They reached their own level again. Once more the old moat was locked, and once more a drawn battle had been fought over that secret which still re­ I mained hidden deep somewhere in those rock caverns. Little by little, slowly and in deep humiliation, the forces of Grahoffen found their way out as best they might—or at least most of them did, Including Sachio and Cortislaw, his king. Presently Frederick, Kitty and King Michael were alone once more, res­ cued as much by fate, by chance, as by their own wits—keen as those had been. "So. your majesty,” said Count Frederick to King Michael, "where there is will there Is way—it seems the proverb is proved true once more. We were not tar alike from death and burial here ourselves. Had our friends the enemies remained much longer, we would have taken toll of them to the last man. ’Twas lucky, my recol­ lection of the old tradition about the wheel and the water gates. "But come now, perhaps your maj­ esty wik rest,” said he In conclusion. "I think we shall now hare better op­ portunity to do so. Unless I am now far mistaken, our friends of Grahoffen will leave us. Not only with fire and sword, but with the waters under the earth, we have smitten them. "As for you, mademoiselle," said he when at length they bad escorted the monarch to a place of greater safety. ”1 congratulate you also on the escape. You aided handsomely as ever. But for your courage we could not have succeeded.” "It was nothing," said Kitty. "The trapped animal fights desperately." "It is of no Importance," said Count Frederick calmly. A’ peril passed Is passed, and need give us no more concern. But stay, there was some unfinished business between you and me. mademoiselle.

The eleyator going down is loaded with the guys who whittle dry goods boxe- and build castles in the skies. Some men will sit as though spiked down and spin their tales of woe. While others with the wander­ lust are always on the go. Thus discontent takes different forms, but brings the same result. It heads you for Hotel de Gink to join the Hobo cult.

John was nothing but sd author. He never aimed at anything but the scribbler's trade, but he Lad that fatal fire which cannot be quenched, though it can be dampened. For fifteen years he had toiled, struggling to win fame and achieve success. At thirty a little spurt of popularity with his stories had enabled him to turn to novels. But here he failed dis­ mally. The critic* roasted him un­ mercifully. They condemned the very qualities which John aimed to put into bls book to please tbe public. For at thirty he had suddenly grown worldly wise. Lesbia had come into bls life, and to make enough money to marry her he bad thrown his ideals overboard, trying only to write the sort of tales and books that tbe pub­ lic wanted. It was a fatal error, but excusable, John believed, under the circumstances. He awoktf to realize that he had sold his soul, and he had not been paid fur iL For his first two novels were utter failures, and hta publishers had re­ fused to accept the third. . Then the iron entered into tbe man's soul. He sat down and waote the book that he had always wanted to write. He hardly stirred from hta room dur­ ing those two feverish months. But when the manuscript lay before him he knew that he had at last achieved what he had always hoped to achieve. He sent it to hta publishers and went to see Lesbia. He meant to tell her about his long struggle for her, to ask her if she would share his life, that of a failure. And he always re­ membered her look, her words, sobbed out despairingly: . "You waited too long! You should have told me years ago! I am en­ gaged to be married!” At once the man's plans fell crum­ bling into ashes. He tested the bitter­ ness of life In all its fullness at thirtyfive. He left the city that day and went into New England, choosing the most .secluded village there. He de­ voted the small capital that remained to him to starting a small poultry fann and garden. That was a year ago. Re had dropped out of the Uvea of his associates. None was dependent on him. Nobody would care what hap­ pened to him. And he resolved never to set pen te paper again foe literary use. He kept his vow, too, though at times the old impulse was strong up­ on him. A neighbor came to him, waving a newspaper. "Say, Mr. Rochester, there’s some­ thing about you in the paper, I reckon." he said, handing him the sheet "They got your photograph on the front page.

"Light delivery is a problem of spe­ cial body equipment. While It is possible for the laundryman and the dry-cleaner *.o use the same type of body, each can greatly facilitate his problem by having a body built to carry the especial type of merchan­ dise that he handles. The same holds true with tho butcher, the baker, the milliner, the grocer and every other line of business which uses or should use motpr-driven delivery equipment “There are good delivery body builders in every city. To his own design any merchant can have built the type of body best adapted to his needs. In Detroit the Beach-Crosa Body Co., 863 Woodward ave., builds commercial bodies to order, at very low prices. "We price the chassis at $90 less than our touring car. This will, off­ set the cost of the finest type of de­ livery body, mounted, painted and gold-lettered. “kiore and more the light delivery car is becoming the leading factor In reducing the operating costa of merchants.

Refinements have been incorporated in the new models and they now stand supreme as typical exemplars of the highest achievement of one of the world's great manufacturers of motor cars. Owing to enormously increased volume and the unrivaled manufacturing facilities that Studebaker possesses, the prices are remarkably low for cars of such quality. But it must always be remembered that Studebaker price is never a meas­ ure of Studebaker quality — that it has always been Stude­ baker policy to produce the highest grade possible without regard to price — that such low prices are possible only by reason cf f-'debaker leadership and superiority in equipment.

AMERICAN STEEL & WIRE COMPANY C. L. Glasgow WHY YOU SHOULD USE SENECA STOCK POWDER Ik is a common argument among those who decry the use of Stock Powder that all a borse needs is plenty of good oats, corn, hay and water. To be sure most horses can live and render a fair amount of service on .such rations, but your horse can be kept in much better condition on a smaller amount of feed if SENECA Stock Powder Is fed regularly at all seasons of the year. At present prices of feed, that is certainly an object. Remember, if you cannot see that it saves you in feed much more than the cost of the goods, to nothing of the Improved condition of your animals, your money be cheerfully refunded without argument. , Many horses are kept from yoqth to old age In unsanitary surroundings and exposea to inclement weather. Unable to speak, their condition is made manifest by long hair, dropping eyes, thin flanks; their blood and bowels become deranged; their food is not properly digested, and a large proportion of what they eat passes off us waste. SENECA Stock Powder assists in digesting and assimilat­ ing the food the animal eats, keeps blood and bowels in good condi­ tion, and prevents and cures many of tbe ailments they would other­ wise be subject to. Hundreds of cases might be cited where horses have increased in selling value 850 to 8200 after a few months’ use of SENECA Stock Powder. If it pays others, it will pay you.

A certain relief came to the soul two white strangers, whoever or What­ 1 ■ ’ ’ sure that It had any value. Only, cu­ riously enough. It impressed her as being like another certain bit of parch­ ment of which Count Sachio had robbed her. As yet she could not de­ cipher the torn lialf-lcglble screed. How came she by it, and why? She herself could scarcely have told why she had paused to take it from the pocket of tho dead sailor In tho cav­ ern. when, just before their flight, she Had bethought herself that possibly he bore upon his person some proof of his Identity. Thus far she had not had time to look at the soiled and crumpled bit. She concealed It now— In her mind the growing suspicion that providentially she might have boon put in possession of the other half of- tbe torn paper which Sachio had coveted! She had ceased to won­ der at fortune’s caprices now and soon indeed all thought of this torn parch­ ment was banished from her mind. She forgot that .possibly it also spoke of broken coins or treasure chambers, or other things of ancient history in these lands whoso very stones had sto­ ries could they but tell them. Restored somewhat by food and drink, and "having regained a trifle of her self-respect by tho donning ot some woman's garments which she found In the cabin, Kitty Gray's buoy­ ant spirts began once more to assert themselves. As she loked at her face In tho little mirror sho spoke half aloud the resolution which she saw in tho reflected features. "I’m not going to England," said she. “I'm not going to America. I'm going back to Gretzhoffen, till my work is done! Surely they will put us down at that port—it is as near as any. Then—wo shall see.” An hour later she returned to the deck to make her duties to her host more completely—little as sho had been impressed by his personality or his conduct, which later sho was ready to stigmatize as odious. Sho met Count Frederick, much im­ proved by a change to a well-fitting suit of flannels which he had found. Ho smiled now happily at seeing her. “You're looking ripping, mademoi­ selle!" said he. "I did not see you have that frock, on the island yonder." "Nor did I notice that your trousers were so well pressed there!” retorted she. At this moment Wyndham Joined them. "I was just saying to Mr. Wyndham." said Count Frederick, "that we owed him a very great debt of gratitude, and that you—" "Quite the other way about, I assure you." said Mr. Arthur Wyndham, tho brewer's son. as he pressed somewhat too warmly the hand which Kitty ex­ tended him. "It is I who am the debtor. I swear, I never saw one change so much!” His gaze, which passed over Kitty in her new apparel, was quite too lan­ guishing. Kitty Gray made such con­ versation as she could. Unconsciously she drifted to the side of Count Fred­ erick, and finding herself there, won­ dered why she bad done so. Onco more she was alone, at the mercy of men. There was not another woman on this boat. But now, If it came to a choice, she knew which of these two men she would elect as bsr protector. Count Frederick made some excuse and departed presently, so that Kitty found herself alone with Wyndham. She liked little enough the ardor of the gaze which he bent upon her now. and arose to leave him. "You will excuse me?” said she. "I have forgotten something " But us she turned she heard him stride suddenly toward her, felt his hand upon her arm. • “No. no!" said he. “Walt—why do you go? Finding you' here—such a woman—saving your life and all that —do you think I am a man of stone— do you think—?’’ "I think you must excuse me," said "Send This!" Exclaimed Count Frederick. "If You Cut In on Anything Kitty Gray, icily. Else I’ll Kill You!"

In parts of France the residue from gas works is extensively used as a fer­ tilizer. Analysis of several samples of garden soil prove that the value of this unusual fertilizing agent is due in part to the largo amount of sulphur in It, 40 per cent of sulphur and from 1 to ” per cent of nitrogen. In the form of ammonia or its salts. Expeftments in flour of sulphur are said to promote tho growth of both roots and leaves and to give to the plants a deeper green color than they wculd have without IL Probably it helps to form chlorophyll. Moreover, some of the sulphur is oxi­ dized and becomes sulphate in the soil. In this relation. It may be pointed out that experiments at the University of Wisconsin have been regarded as proving that the generally prevailing theory that sulphur In the soil is of little value for promoting fertility, as compared with phosphorus and nitro­ gen, is erroneous and that sulphur is, in tact, of vast Importance. Continu­ ous cultivation, together with insuffi­ cient fertilization, causes a large an­ nual loss of sulphur which cannot be compensated from the atmosphere, and little is brought up by capillarity from the subsoil. The experimenters, therefore, recommend the application of fertilizers containing sulphur to lands which are frequently cropped. Tho failure hitherto to recognize the great value of sulphur in the soil is ascribed to faulty analytic methods employed by early investigators. Endless Battle. Look around today. Lo, here and now In our civilized society, the old allegories yet have a meaning, the old myths are still true. Into the Valley of the Shadow of Death yet often the path of Duty leads; through the streets of Vanity Fair walk Christian and Faithful; and on Greatheart’s armor ring the clanging blows. Ormuzd still fights with Ahriman—the Prince of Light with the powers of darkness. He who will hear, to him the clarions of the battle call. How they call, and call, and call, till the heart swells that hears them! Strong soul and high endeavor, the world needs them now. Beauty still lies imprisoned, and iron wheels still go over the good, the true and the beautiful that might spring from hu­ man lives. And they who fight with Ormuzd, though they may not know each other —somewhere, sometime, will their muster roll be called.—Henry George.. Sought Information. As illustrating the haziness of con­ ception which prevailed years ago as to what and where the Philippines were, Dean Worcester tells In his book, "The Philippines, Past and Present,” of a good old lady who came to him on his first return from the Islands for a bit of information. “Deanie,” she said, “are them Phillppians you have been a-visltln' the peo­ ple that Paul wrote the Epistle to?” Explaining the Carving.

AMERICANS TO TRAP OUTLAW Three Commands Are Encircling Raidj er—Pershing Expected to Arrive Tn Time, to Assist First Chiefs Men. El Paso, Tex., March 22.—Francisco Villa was in a desperate battle with Carranza forces under Colonel Cano at Namiquipa on Monday. Here the bandit leader turned on. his pursuer and made a stand, after a running fight which started at Las Cruces dur­ ing the forenoon. United States troops from the com­ mand of Col. George A. Dodd are hur­ ' rying to the support of the Carranxistas from El Valle. Another detach­ ment Is following the trail which leads to the pass through the moun­ tains of Bablcora. It Is believed Villa will retreat in the directidn of Laguna Bablcora. Reports indicate the Americans will be in the midst of the fighting soon, either at Namiquita or the mountain pass. An engagement at the latter point would give Villa a distinct ad­ vantage, as he is expected to give fight from the mountain slopes. General Pershing reported on Mon­ day that Villa had been reported de­ feated by Mexican government troops near Cruces and that he was retreat­ ing northward. General Pershing's report was followed, however, by the unofficial report that VHla was still fighting Carranzlstas under Colonel Cano at Namiquipa, south ot Cruces. Colonel Cano has 900 cavalrymen. Villa May Go to Mountains. If the Carranza force wins in the fighting that was said to be continu­ ing late in the day Villa will have to move northward along a road over which a detachment ot American troops is riding southward, or leave the road and head for the Santa Marla mountains that parallel the road to the east, or to the Oriental range on the west side. Retreat, according to the report, is impracticable because of the presense In the rear of Mexican troops who forced him to turn northward from Cruces. The detachment that is beaded south on the road along which Villa was reported as advancing is one of three subdivisions operating south of Casas Grandes. One column was sent toward Lake Bablcora, 70 miles south of Casos Grandes and somewhat to the west The other two detachments moved as one to Galeana, south and east ot Casas Grandes, and there separated, ' one continuing in a more easterly di­ rection toward Carmcn>65 miles from Casas Grandes, and the other south toward Cruces, 50 miles south of Casas Grandes, which now has be­ come the advanced base of tbe expedi­ tionary forces. Pershing Directs Moves. Just where General Pershing 16 was not announced, but he Is directing the work of the three detachments and by means of scouts Is attempting to ktep in communication. It was known at headquarters, however, that divergent directions will make this difficult The moun­ tainous character of the country also ' will afford elevations that will <nske more feasible communication by-sig­ naling. From all points to which the three detachments are moving Villa has been reported in the vicinity. Al­ though it Is realized that he could not have been at all points where he was said to have been, the three detach­ ments win be so widely separated by tbe time they have gone a short dis; tance farther that it was regarded as almost certain that one of them would tome in contact with him. ' Force Near Valle. The force moving toward. Cruces was only a short distance north of Valle, twenty-eight miles north of Cruces on Monday afternoon. The steady and rapid advance of a part of General Pershing's force into Mexico has increased the desire of those at army headquarters here to be permitted to use the Northwestern railway for moving supplies. Cruces, a point that probably will be reached by one of the cavalry detachments, is about 200 miles from the border, aad Lake Bablcora alike distance. fn getting supplies through from the border to Casas Grandes, from where Charlotte.—Mrs. R.

FIRST—Quality of work. SECOND—Ease of management. THIRD—Lightness of draft. FOURTH—Strength and durability. Plow quality does not improve with age. An inferior plow does poorer work, is harder to pull and costs more for repairs every year it is used. So judging the zeal worth of a plow is not difficult if the four rules are kept in mind. The New Deere is made with hand and foot lift and with or with­ out tongue, so if you need a good plow come in and let us show you a New Deere and try one before you buy any other. C. L.

"This is the government boat for which I called. Aboard It yonder is the prime minister of our kingdom. We are a small people, sir­ rah, but we do not lack spirit. Send for your own ships if you like, and blow down our walls—you are a stronger people than ours. But we will see them fall before wo will humble ourselves to such as you. As to what you have done—say one word more, and we will sink you and take our chances with your flag." Count Frederick, having thus spo­ ken, turned away, and paid no more attention to the master of the Prin­ cess. "Come," said ho to Kitty, when at last he had found her. In a few moments tbe two were on board tho yacht of their own country— or at least that of Count Frederick. With a final shot of defiance to the craft from which they now had escaped, the Adelina again got under way and swept a wide curve around, heading back for the port of Gretz­ hoffen. The Princess, soon hull-down in the distance, made her wrfy off as best she liked; to be held thereafter only in a contemptuous memory. see now that the king is for their use, not they for his!

She dreaded to hear what yet she longed to hear. * "The treasure of the king, buried so long, mademoiselle—yes! But one treasure which also now 1 have found!

It is but now that I myself have found it. Ah. had I the key to that as well, I should be the happiest man in all the world." She still gazed out across white­ tipped, rippling waves. Her face soft­ ened. but what he saw now on her cheek was a tear, stealing down below her lashes! Grieved, he himself could not speak. At last she turned to him. ’ "I am so sorry!" said she. "For what, mademoiselle? You know I love you, that I never will love again. Is not that the truth Itself? Can you doubt it? Doubt mb,’ fail to believe my every word and I will go. You shall not see me again." It was like him thus boldly to chal­ lenge fate. But she only shook her bead. “I cannot," said she, “I wish I could." "But you cannot?" He had her hands in his now. And now she turned her face toward him. “You shall never deny the truth, my dear," said he. "All my life I shall challenge you to deny me and my love. When you can, when I have been unfaithful to you, life ends foi me. But between now and then, long years of happiness He—long years of | love—long, happy, useful years.” "Happy? Useful?

THIRD—Lightness of draft. FOURTH—Strength and durability. Plow quality does not improve with age. An inferior plow does poorer work, is harder to pull and costs more for repairs every year it is used. So judging the real worth of a plow is not difficult if the four rules are kept in mind.

Any others he could flout or baffle, but hers, sharp­ ened by an acutely aensitlve jealousy^ would read not only what was in the Linesk but between them. Carolyn should have known better than to write so, ho reflected irritably. Yet he had been unreasonably angered to find no touch ot sentiment—only a gay and apparently genuine cama­ raderie—when he had been assuring himself that he had broken her heart. Public lite allured h' •». How Caro­ lyn bad glowed when she came to know of IL The worldly-wide trick­ ster who had sought to advance hfm had said: "But take it from me, son —if you marry her and try to keep on living up to her you’ll be a failure it will break her heart to see." Then after two years of struggle Fate had thrown Juliet and her millions in his path. She was thin and dark, piteously alone, just turned thirty and so rath­ er older than he. She was narrowly auspclous of men and their motives and well she might be—scores had tried to marry her on the strength of her expectations. Just then came Norbert Esmay to captivate her utterly and thereby make her look at life from a different view­ point Naturally, Esmay had been touched deeply. He'had acted honorably, even laying the case before Carolyn and* bid­ ding her decide It for him. She had ansvered him In a single sentence: "Unless I hade you take the goods the gods provide I could not sign myself, as I do, always faithfully your friend, Carolyn Dare.” He had accepted her verdict and now the wedding was only a week ahead. ’ * The storm was over, the afternoon low sun struggling through tho fast­ moving clouds. At that moment a car came swiftly up the drive. Before he could rush down the two flights to the hall he heard Juliet’s voice demanding peremptorily: •'Where is Mr. Esmay?

On the way to make a final appeal to bls strong-willed ward, the wind of destiny had dropped Carolyn’s letter plump into his lap. Regarding Kegaroing it as a prnvjaentiai providential inter Inter­ position in his favor, Judge Nixon had taken it straight to Juliet, bidding her read it—and be cautious. . "Come!

He Is as yet too young fully to know the gravity of these presents. But by this sign you shall know your ruler, snail these presents come to you, well be­ loved. "In the name of God, amen! Mi­ chael, Rex." "Below this signature of Michael the Good," said the measured voice of Count Frederick, “there is another signature—’Michael the Second. Rex.’ Gentlemen, there are two signatures to these scripts, and there are two seals." A sigh of wonder, almost of consternation, came from those assembled, The only protest was from the hud dled object in the farther corner ot thc room> where still remained Mlchael, the drunken. “What then, tlthe guard!” he ..

"This proof, sir!" said Count Fred­ erick. coldly, and approached to him the broad page of the parchment sheet. Michael gazed stupidly at what he saw, uncomprehending. Others gazed also, and at first could make nothing of what was there. Count Frederick went on: “I recall now, as I see this page," said be.

Or, how can I be hap­ py at that. Now, I must go back—I must leave you!” "You shall never go!" said the quiet voice of the man who confronted her. "You shall never leave me now.” ' “But how?

Elsie Van Trevor had gone to their bungalow at the seashore and taken her secretory with her. The little Welshman was cataloguing the books to the library alone. He missed his wife greatly. It was their first separation. Somehow he felt that Mrs. Van Trevor's sudden friendship for Leila boded ill for them both. Bat Leila had been crazy to go;' there were to be house parties and all sorts of gayety, and later Evans was to be invited for a day or two. Somewhere a bell had been ringing furiously all the morning. The little Welshman- wondered where it' could be. He threw up the window and looked out Suddenly a violent pain shot through his head, as if a knife had pierced him. The boil was to hls own head. And the pain was stab­ bing without cessation. He screamed with the agony of it He tried to stagger across tho room, collapsed, and moaned upon the floor. He saw Van Trevor standing over him, a look of fear in hls eyes. Then through a period of unconsciousness he grew to a dim realization of the jolting ambulance, the hospital, the white-capped nurses, and the sicken­ ing stench of the ether cone. He opened hls eyes to find himself in a bed in the hospital. Hls head was swathed in bandages. "You'll do finely now,” the nurse said, and he opened his eyes a second time to see Van Trevor at his side. "How are you, my dear chap?” he asked. "By George? that was touch and go. but the surgeon says you’re all right now." "You haven’t told my wife?" asked Evans weakly. "No. I thought it best not to alarm her,” answered the other. Van Trevor never came again through the slow days of conva­ lescence. Evans' letters to Leila were unanswered. Gradually a sick euing fear began to come over tbe lit­ tle Welshman, a sense of some undefinable tragedy. At last, when two weeks had passed, he was permitted to leave the hospital. He hurried to the Vsn Trevor house. The butler, who opened the door, stood in hls "Mr. Van Trevor left a letter for you. sir," he said, handing him a mis­ sive. The little Welshmen opened it It stated briefly that the work had come to an end. and included a check for five hundred dollars.

"She’s too good for that little shrimp. Too good altogether." “Poor little devil!" said Van Trevor. “He told me he's saving up for an op­ eration on his ear. He says it’s Ilk*-: ly to prove serious some day if he doesn’t have it done." I "Sbe'fl too good for him," hls wife repeated, following her tram of thought "I don't see how she came to marry him.

She shook hands with Evans cordially, and they sat down to lunch in a magnificently furnished room, while a butler served them. Evans was conscious of a painful diffidence. A gentleman by birth, a long period of hardship had made him self-conscious. He wondered whether he was using his knife and fork cor­ rectly. The Van Trevors seemed sticklers for etiquette. In Wales one met all classes upon a free and easy basis; here there seemed to be a con­ ventionalized ritual, a little different, and puzzling. The Van Trevors drew him out about his wife. "You must bring her to see us," said the rich man’s wife, as they parted. II.

The bungalows stood side by side in their trim plots at the edge of the shore. Near by. at the huge hotel, were music and dancing, and the mlrtn of holiday-makers. Many couples, strolling along the road, looked askance at the seedy little man. with the bandage about his head, who walked hurriedly toward, the bungalow at the end of the row. In the shadow of a pine tree Evans halted. The bungalow was ablaze with lights. He heard the voices of Van Trevor and hls friends, and the tittering laughter of his wife. Then came a laugh that made him clutch at his heart—Leila's. Then suddenly the little Welshman seemed to become inspired with a strong personality that had never been hls. He strode through the open door into the living-room, and stood there at the door. - He saw a look of fear to Van Trev­ or's eyes, astonishment in the guests’, wonder in Leila’s. The little, shabby man suddenly dominated the situation. "Hugh!” exclaimed Leila, leaping to her feet “You are ill! What is the matter?" “I have come to take you home, dear," said Evans. Mrs. Van Trevor advanced with mincing steps. "This is Leila's hus­ band,” she explained to the group. “He has been unwell, you know. Mr. Evans, it would really have been more seemly to have written.” “Come, dear,*' said Evans, taking his wife’s arm in his. In that moment he saw all the struggle in the girl’s soul; the old love and the new pleasures. It was a hard test for her, beaten by the storms of uncertainty. "Leila is certainly not going away with you,” exclaimed Elsie- Van Trev­ or angrily. "This is zan outrage! Leila, dear, we will protect you.” ' With a swift, passionate gesture Evans tore the bracelets from Leila's arms, the bendant from her neck, and oast them down. And, while they still stored at them, they were gone, and Leila clung to her husband's neck in the darkness. "Hugh, dearest’" she wepL "What was it? Why didn't you write?

HASTINGS’ GREAT DEPARTMENT STORE �“Oh, no; that, was all right” “You can’t think how busy we’ve all been this year, Bibbs. Of course we knew mamma was writing often, There is a utidlaxH city In tbe heart Of fair, open country, a dirty and won­ derful city nesting dingily in the fog of its own smoke. The stranger must feel tbe dirt before he feels the.won­ der, for the dirt will be upon him In­ stantly. At a breexe be must smother In whirlpools of dust, and if he should decline at any time to Inhale the smoke be has the meager alternative of sui­ cide. Not quite so tong ago as a genera­ tion there was here no heaving, grimy city; there was but a pleasant big town of neighborly people who had under­ standing of one another. But there waa a spirit abroad In the land, and It waa strong here as else­ where—a spirit that had moved in the depths of the American soil and la­ bored there, sweating, till it stirred the surface, rove the mountains, and emerged, tangible and mrihstrous, tbe god of al! good American hearts—Big­ ness. And so tM? place grew. And It grew strong. The Sheridan building was tbe big­ gest skyscraper; tbe Sheridan Trnst company was the biggest of Its kind, and Sheridan himself had been tbe big­ gest builder and breaker and treater and buster under the smoke.

But his hunger to get was unabated, for It was in the very bones of him end grew fiercer. He was the city incarnate.

And the cook, descending toward dusk, re­ ported that he had vanished; but ■• search revealed that he was in the coal-pile, completely covered and still burrpwlng. Removed by force and carried upstairs, he maintained a cryp­ tic demeanor. ■ refusing to utter a syl­ lable of explanation, even under the lash. This obvious thing was wholly a mystery to both parents; the mother was nonplused, failed to trace and connect; and the father regarded his son as a stubborn and mysterious fool, an Impression not effaced as the years went by. At twenty-two Bibbs was physically no more than the outer scaffolding of a man. waiting for the, building to be­ gin Inside—a long-shanked, long-faced, rickety youth, sallow and hollow and haggard, dark-haired and dark-eyed, with a peculiar expression of counte­ nance; indeed, at flrst sight of Bibbs Sheridan he seemed upon the point of tears. To a slightly longer gaze, not grief, but mirth, was revealed as his emotion; but Bibbs never, on any oc­ casion In his life, either laughed aloud or wept He was a “disappointment” to his father. At least that was the parent’s word—a confirmed and established word after bis first attempt to make a “business man” of the boy. He sent Bibbs to “begin at tbe bottom and learn from the ground up" In the ma­ chine shop of the Sheridan Automatic Pump works, and nt the end of six months tbe family physician sent Bibbs to begin at the taittom and learn from the ground up In a sanitarium. “You needn’t worry, mamma," Sher­ idan told his wife. "There’s nothin’ the matter with Bibbs except be hates work so much it makes him sick. I put him In the machine shop, and I guess I know what I'm doin’ about as well as tbe next man. Ole Doc Gur­ ney always was one o’ them nutty I alarmists. Does be think I’d do anyi thing ’d be bad for my own flesh and blood? He makes me tired!” , Anything except perfectly definite health or perfectly definite disease was incomprehensible to Sheridan. He । bad a genuine conviction that lack of jihysical persistence In any task In­ , volvlng money must be due to some subtle weakness of character Itself, to । some profound shiftlessness or slyness. “Look at me.” he said. “Look at | what I did at his age! Why. when I : was twenty years old. wasn’t I up ev­ . ery morning at four o’clock cboppin' wood—yes! and out in tbe dark and { snow—j) build a fire In a country gro; eery store? And here Bibbs has to go and hav» a doctor because he can’t— Pho! It makes me tired! If he’d gone at it like a man be wouldn't be sick.” | He paced tbe bedroom—the usual setting for such parental discussions— ; in his night gown, shaking his big, grizzled bead and gesticulating to his j bedded spouse. “My Lord!” he said. ; “If the little, teeny bit o’ work like . this is too much for him. why, be ain’t j fit for anything! It’s nine-tenths imagI Inatlon. and the rest of it—well, I won’t say It’s deliberate, but I would | like to know Just bow much of It’s put : on!” “Bibbs didn't want the doctor." said Mrs. Sheridan. “It was when he wa« ! here to dinner .that night, and I noticed bow he couldn’t eat anything. Honey, you better come to bed.” “Eat!” he snorted. “Eat! It’s work j that makes men eat! And there’s an­ other thing you’ll notice about good health. If you'll take the trouble to look around yon, Mrs. Sheridan; busy men haven’t got time to be sick, and they don’t get sick. You Just think i It over, and you’ll find that 99 per ! cent of the sick people you know are . either women or loafers. Yes. ma’am!” j “Honey," she said again, drowsily, ! “yoo better come to bed.” ■ j “Look at the other boys,” her hus­ band hade her. “Look at Jim and Ros­ coe. Look at how they work.

She blew the flake of soot Into the air, seeming relieved. He looked up at the dingy sky, wherein hung the disconsolate sun like a cold tin-pan nailed up in a smoke­ house by some lunatic, for a decora­ tion. • “Yes," said Bibbs. “It’s very gay.” A few moments later, as they passed a corner, “Aren’t we going home?” he asked. “Your new driver is taking ns-out of the way. Isn’t be?” “Good gracious!” she cried. “Didn’t you know we’d moved? Didn’t you know we were in the new bouse?*’ “Why, no.”’ skid Bibbs. “Are you?” “We’ve been there a month! Good gracious!

Fathers and mothers smile , After their tasks are done; Here gleams, for mile and mile, Grain In the golden sun. Here gentle stars above Look down on peaceful scenes, Here is a land to love. This Is what freedom means. Streams are pure and clean, Orchards now come to fruit. Land where no work is seen Born of the brawn of brute. Firesides with love aglow, Homes that with laughter ring; These are the joys we know, These are the charms we sing. Land of men’s honest toll. Land where no shell careens Staining with blood the soil, This is what freedom means. Land of man’s love for man. Home of the brave and true, Land where the humblest can His way to his goal pursue. Land where to God we pray. Not tor the strength to fight, But to be shown the way Ever to keep the right; This we are boasting of. These are the joys we know. This is the land we love, Our task to keep it so. —Edgar A. Guest. YOU NEEDN’T BE A MILLIONAIRE Dressing vyell doesn’t neces­ sarily imply spending more than you can afford.

Glenn Smith, who took part in the Grand Rapids Herald's Marathon Sat­ urday. finished eighth In the race, but won the following complimentary notice In the Herald’s write-up: "Smith is a farmer's son. Never in his life has he had the advice of a man on how to run. He has read books on the matter and has beer, ambitious to become a runner. He developed naturally a pretty easy stride. He has never tasted either tobacco or liquor and his hard outof-doors life has put him and kept him ip as perfect physical condition as any man in the world. He en­ tered tbe Herald's Marathon without an idea of winning it. When he re­ ported Saturday morning he made this modest statement: ‘AU I know about running is what I have read. I never had any coaching of any sort. But I know that I will finish unlees somebody knocks me down, and I’ll finish just as fresh as I start. I am here to learn and ehall not be disap­ pointed to be the last man in.* Smith fulfilled just what he said. He fin­ ished fresh as a daisy. His stride was as perfect coming down Fulton street as when he ran up. He was not even bio wed. He was close on the heels of the seventh man, and when it was all over said he could have run around again if necessary. Had he known as much about the game as some of the other runners. Smith would have made somebody go to beat him." Aluminum.

The world is paying the price of Its folly today, and the price Is ex­ ceedingly large, it Is appallingly Over In Servla the folly of a half witted dupe of unscrupulous plotters resulted in the assassination of a worthless archduke. That ehot, con­ ceived In hatred and executed In the blindness of folly, has plunged half the world into the bloodiest and most gigantic war of all history. It Is de­ vastating the fairest spots of Eur­ ope, making millions of widows and orphans, prostituting humanity, and transforming a land of peace and happiness Into the mire of misery and degradation. Paying the price of folly! Mexico had a ruler In the person ot General Porflrlo Diaz. He was a man of blood and iron, whose simple word was a law unto itself, but he ruled wisely and well, or as much so as could be expected of any man in that illiterate country. His country was prosperous and laws were reas­ onably enforced. But folly crept In. Francisco Madero headed a success­ ful revolution. The old warrior pres­ ident fled to Spain and death, Madero was proclaimed president, and was promptly deposed and murdered by the minions of bls chief general, Huerta. Carranza and Villa joined forces for the overthrow of Huerta, but the United States practically forc­ ed the Indian dictator to forsake his bloodstained laurels and flee the country. Carranza became ruler and Villa promptly turned his guns against his erstwhile friend. Now Carranza Is about at the end of his rope, with defeat and assassination as his probable reward. Mexican soil Is soaked with blood, and the ground is strewn with the bones of its fallen sons. Had Diaz been left in peace the country would have continued to prosper and develop and grow, where­ as today it is barren with the ashes of decay. Paying the price of folly! RUGS!

This camp will be pre­ ceded by a brief leadership training camp for those who are to have in charge the boys from 12 to 16 years of age who enjoy the outing. At a reoent meeting of the cabinet of the Barry County Sunday School association, the officers of the asso­ ciation heartily agreed to urge schools throughout the county to select a representative boy and send him. In some communities, fraternal organi­ zations are contemplating paying the way of those boys who could not otherwise attend. Tbe Camp Committee is especially fortunate is securing Prof. E. Ros­ coe Sleight, head of the mathematics department of Albion College.' He will Lave in- charge both the Bible study and educational work of the camp. Prof. Sleight played on the college baseball team, and as long as bls health permitted worked in South America as a missionary. Of special interest will be hla talks on astrono­ my.

"The most significant gathering of the Young Men’s. Christian associa­ tions of North America.” Such was the consensus of opinion regarding the Thirty-Ninth International Con­ vention of this movement, held at Cleveland. May 12-16, In the great armory of the Cleveland Grays. Fif­ ty-two states and provinces were rep­ resented, including the Phllllplne and Hawaiian Islands, and issues and plans were considered which vtlli en­ able the association to spread to the I farthermost parts of the earth tho American spirit of Christian brother­ hood. Next to a world wide trip, this as­ sociation furnished the largest op­ portunity to grasp the scope of its work, the daring statesman ship of Its plans, the vision and genius of Its leadership. Probably no man ranks higher in potential leadership than John R. Mott, general executive sec­ retary of the movement, -who during this past year succeeded Richard Morse, who-tor 46 years held that Important place. For • more than twenty years In charge of the exten­ sion of this movement to foreign lands, thrice refusing the American ambassadorship to China, bolding the confidence ot all the warring na­ tions so that he will soon again visit the battling armies of both factions, John R. Mott was instrumental in pre­ senting to this great convention a program so gigantic that it Is stun­ ning. It calls tor the expenditure ot ISOO.OOO for work among the sold­ iers at war. In the trenches, the train­ ing camps and among all sorry prisoners, except those under the control of Turkey. Some of Ameri­ ca’s very strongest -leadership must march out to meet this need today, while it is with us. With 174 men In other foreign lands, such as China, India. Japan, Africa and South Amer­ ica, the association program calls for 200 more then to immediately meet the challenge raised by all ot the de­ nominational boards, pleading to the Young Men’s Christian association for help. And this demands another expenditure of 1600,000. With Its employed force in North America totalling 4,416 picked men to work among 620.7 99 members and with current expenses mounting up to >12.924,701 a year, the Interna­ tional Committee of the Young Men's Christian associations likewise asked for but >400.000 to extend and de­ velop this phase of Its effort. For Its home work reaches Into many branch­ es of life's activities, not only in the rural fields like Barry County, nor In­ to* the cities like Grand Rapids and Jackson, but among our own sailors and soldiers, the colored men in the South, the American Indians, miners, lumbermen, railroad men. students, immigrants, high school and employ-[ ed boys, as well as those employed in stores and banks and fa'ctories.

TheCitirens’ Mutual Automobile Insurance Company of Howell, Michigan, now has over 6,000 members ; they organised at the right time of the year, in the fall, and built up a largi member­ ship, agency force, and surplus to take care of the losses during the automobile season. The Company has paid fourteen claim, for liability, three fire losses, and bare had fourteen cars stolen • all claims hare been adjusted with the exception of one personal in’iurr case, and a small claim of damages to a car by theft The Com mury is therefore in a position to gire its members service. Had the losses occurred when tbe company first started of course lhev could not have paid them, but it is.now writing about five hundred new members per week, with a surplus on hand of about $13,(100.

Advt What Do You Know About The Maxwell Car? HIS is the time of the year when more people are considering the question of “what car to buy” than at any other time of the year. For this reason cars are allotted to dealers by the factory according to the size of the dealer’s business. T We want to make a showing and be in a posi­ tion to get a generous allotment of Maxwells hereafter. Because the more Maxwells are sold in any community, the greater is the future demand. We realize the opportunity to do an ever-increasing Maxwell business. This community has its full share of people who will soon be driving their first car or a new car to replace the old oneT Now, we know that we are going to sell Max­ well Cars to a great many of these people—-de­ pending upon how many we are able to acquaint with the merits of the Maxwell. This is only the first of die several messages we are going to print—a few days apart—concern­ ing the Maxwell Car. But we don’t expect to be able to adequately present Maxwell merits in printed words alone. The generous vr’ue offered in the car is so evident—its past record is so full of good perform­ ance—owners speak so well of it—that when the buyer knows these things, he is eager to buy a Maxwell. If you are one who is going to buy a new car you will find it decidedly to your advantage to find out all you can about the Maxwell before you place your order. In order to tell as many people as possible about the merits of the Maxwell Car we are going to spend a let of money in the next few weeks in this paper advertising Maxwell merits to those who do not know them. Come in and talk it over with us and let us demonstrate the car to you. Then, don’t take our word alone, but ask those who now own Maxwells. Get “posted” about the Maxwell and you will realize more satisfaction and get more “value re­ ceived” for your motor car money than ever before. And we are just as willing to have you investi­ gate other cars just as fully as you do ours. The Maxwell will not suffer by the comparison. Why not start your Maxwell investigation today? The reason—we want to sell as many Maxwells as possible this season. Our future allotments will depend upon how many Maxwells we sell now. You may know that the Maxwell market is a buyer’s market, not a seller’s market—broadly speaking.

Such tobacco enjoyment The petitions now being circulated by organized labor asking that the constitution of the state be amended io as to take from the courts the power to issue injunctions in labor disputes is one of the most arbitrary and revolutionary moves ever made Baa maae in a democratic country in time of peace. The suspension of the writ of habeas corpus would be fraught with no more danger to the rights of citi­ zens that the depriving of certain classes of our people of the right to seek this remedy to prevent the de­ struction of their property and the rain of their business. It is the most radical kind of class legislation be­ cause it seeks to deliver up one class of our citizens, bound and helpless, to the tender xnerties of another class. We might look upon this move with more or less complacency if the evil was to affect only the ilass at which it is aimed, but the evil effects from such legislation will touch every citi­ zen of the state. We cannot isolate such a vicious principle. Sooner or later the whole people, who pay all the bills in the end, will taste the bit­ ter fruit, and it is better that they should realize this before * putting their hands to a petition which is bound to handicap their commercial activities, work disaster to their in­ dustries and open the door to a whole flood of vicious legislation. If the fundamental law of the state is to be changed so as to deprive the manu­ facturer of the power to protect his property by injunction.it will pave the way for an orgie of disorder ?nd de­ struction against which the local au­ thorities will be powerless. Organized labor may deny that it intends either disorder or destraction, but the very fact that it is asking that the legal restraints upon such action be removed proves the case against it. If a business man’s property is threatened with destruction at the bands of disgruntled employees or anyone else is he not entitled to the entire force of the commonwealth to protect it? If organized labor does not intend to coerce the employer by threatening the destruction of his property why is it making such stren­ uous efforts to deprive him of the legal fprotection which he has had since the otindation of the republic? The mo­ tive behind all this activity is too transparent to deceive any citizen who will acquaint himself with the facts. It is time that the people realized that they have to pay, in the final accounting, for all labor disputes, strikes, lockouts and boycotts. This fact is unescapablc. Have the people of any city in this state so many fac­ tories that they can afford to open the doors to fire and destruction? Arc we not all vitally interested in the payrolls of our factories? Are we not all affected adversely when those pay­ rolls dwindle or disappear? Can we afford to place our factories at the mercy of those who respect not the personal or property rights of an­ other? The vast majority of our workingmen are orderly and law-abid­ ing citizens, but there are, unfortu­ nately, too many to whom the de­ struction of property appeals as the best arguments which can be used in the settlement of labor disputes. Be­ ’ ' ms give encouragement to this ... mcvi ____.meat they should con tional, state end municipal affair* many of u* are unconsciously led into the error of believing that there is but one side to the question before u»---our side. When we become imbued with this obsession we likewise —J become J-------- intoler" °,f°VS® and, re,aw’ ,o rwt^ “ *eJt®P^Mlbi,Uy °f MJ our own. We might cite a few instances. We favor a certain man for president in the forthcoming national ^election To our mind he is the on} v mao poss easing the necessary qualifications for this exalted position. All others are mediocre and not worth consideration. And yet as a matter of fact there is not a man in the race for the presidency today but what has his good and val­ uable qualities as well as his weak ones, for Ute brains of this nation are not centered in any one man. We have our personal choice and we sinoerely believe that the man of our choice is the best fitted for the office, but we should readily concede to our neighbor bis inalienable right to differ from us in this belief. We may favor a certain system in municipal government and our neigh­ bor may entertain views radically di­ vergent from our own. But this' does not necessarily imply that we are ex­ actly right in our conception and that our neighbor is entirely wrong, for our neighbor, though differing from us in our views, yet possesses intelligence and is qu.ile capable of applying it in relation to any subject before the peo­ ple. In foci, there are two sides to every question. The preponderance of argu­ ment may be in favor of one side, yet the advocates ot the other side but speak in the light of their training and of their sincere conception of what is fcr the public weal. They are honest in their convictions, as we are.honest in ours, and wisdom bespeaks the utmost tolerance on the p.*rt of all factions and (icoples for those who oppose them in their policies and beliefs. Il is by the careful exercise of this wisdom Uiut a nation becomes great and strong and dominating in the verse policy is Io invite bickering, ex­ asperation and ultimate disintegration in our conduct of affairs let us think is we choose, but bow cheerfully to the will of the majority and work in harmony for the common good of all the people.

Many Michigan people have al­ ready heard of the discovery by that English Horse-Farrier of the culiar liniment which made him fa­ mous back in the early 80's and 40'z all along the Hudson River valley. That it has served the Am­ erican public well, is known by the fact that more and more of It has been used since 1848. Here Is one of thousands of similar cases. Mr. C. Wilkie, of Syracuse. N. Y-, says: "Hanford's Balsam of Myrrh was the only remedy I used when my arm was hurt. I recommend it for all cuts and bruises." Using Old Bottles. A bottle may be cut off by wrapping a cord saturated in coal oil around it several times, then setting fire to the cord, and Just when It has finished burning plunging the bottle Into cold water and. tapping the end you wish to break off. Oddly shaped or pret­ tily colored bottles make good vases. The top of a large bottle having a ■unall neck makes a good funnel. Large round bottles make good Jelly glasses. . —___ When You Have a Cold. Give it attention, avoid exposure, l»e regular and careful of your diet, also commence taking Dr. King’s New Discovery.

Why You Should Own a Max’./eli Comfort Appearance Service Low First-Cott Low After-Cost First, because it is a comfortable riding car. Plenty of room for five people; deep, soft cushions; springs made of the best spring steel, scientifically heat-treated, accurately suspended and balanced. You will always be comfortable in a Maxwell. Second, because the Maxwell is a trim, smart, good-looking car Many makers of heavy, high priced cars, as you know, have copied the general lines, the shape of the body and hood of the Maxwell. This is more of a compliment than an infringement. Third, because the Maxwell, being a product of thirteen years evolution, is so designed and manufactured that it gives unfailing, consistent and and satisfying service to thousands of owners. Maxwell cars are made of the best materials that money and brains can buy—and they are made right. You can get out of any car only what is put into it Fourth, because you get everything in a Maxwell that you can get in any car and you get it for less money. The answer to this is that the Maxwell is a light car and it is built in enormous quantities. The Maxwell Co. is one of the three largest pro­ ducers of high grade motor cars in the world. Fifth, because the Maxwell will give you more miles per dollar than any car bailt. We say this without hesitation or doubt It is our honest belief and we we willing to prove it by Maxwell owners, by comparison with any other car or by any other way you suggest or prefer. The Maxwell will please you. We know it will. Let us arrange for a dem­ onstration and we’ll take the responsibility of satisfying you completely. Touring Car $655 Roadster $635 J. O. a DETROIT A. E.

And we know of larger and more expensive cars that have less able power plants. The Max­ weD engine carries its load through mud and sand or over the steepest grades without a falter. strated to them—until they sit in it and examine the finish—until they ride id it—«r perheo* not until they drive it themselves, do they realize what B tremendous value is offered in the Maxwell car. It is not unusual that MaxweD value should not be known to everyone, because it is uncom­ mon to find such a car for a good margin more than the Maxwell price. The MaxweD stands absolutely alone in a highly competitive field, for the amount of value it offers for the price. Appearance—The lines of the MaxweD are decidedly attractive. There is no break in the contour from the radiator to the back of the car. The fenders are gracefuDy shaped. AD metal parts are enameled or mckel-plated. The uphol­ stery is deep and well-finished. From any angle it is a car that the owner can be proud of. Touring Car $655 f. a a Quality—The materials in the MaxweD car are the best that can be bought and the workman­ ship that turns them into finished parts is no le^s exceDenL It is only the large production of the MaxweD factories that makes it possible to put such quality of materials and workmanship into ■ car selling at the MaxweD price. Economy—With its other attractive features, the MaxweD is a most economical car to own. Owners get 22 to 25 miles per gallon of gasoline and 8,000 to 12,000 miles per set of tires. And the car is so durably built that repair expense is negligible. We are sure you want a car such as we have described the MaxweD to be. If you will give us a few minutes of your time we are sure we can convince you that the MaxweD Car is an excep­ tional value. Come in today. Roadster $635 DETROIT A. E.

As a result premiums in these classes will total nearly $2,500,­ 00. In addition the Michigan ex­ hibitors who are prise winners will be given additional awards equal to 25 per cent of the original premiums. As a result, Michigan exhibitors whose draft horses are awarded prizes will receive 50 per cent more in cash than they were awarded last fall. Mr. Dickinson also announces that there will be classes for mules at the 1916 fair, and $245.00 in cash premiums will bo awarded. There will also bo classes for mule­ foot hogs with suitable premiums. "We are receiving inquiries from stock breeders residing in all sections of Michigan, as well as nearby states, and believe that our live stock ex­ hibits at the 1916 fair will be larger than ever before,” asserted Mr. Dickinson. “We bavo completed arrangements for the judges in the horse, cattle, swine and poultry departments and can assure all prospective exhibitors that the judges will be men who are thoroughly competent and have rep­ utations for giving fair decisions. We expect that because of the additional awards which will be given the ex­ hibitors of prize winning stock that our annual million dollar live stock parade in front of tho grand stand next fall will be larger and contain better animals than have ever pa­ ;raded before our patrons.” Items Takm From The New, ot Frl- H«»» Take.

South of Assevillers the French have taken the second line of German intrenchments as far as the outskirts of Estrees and have advanced beyond the second German line, where they have captured the villages of Buscourt and *FlaucourL The total advance at this section was five kilometers. 8,000 Prisoners Taken. The number of nnwounded prison­ ers by actual count taken by the French exceeds 8,000. Seven bat­ teries, three of large caliber, a quan­ tity of mitrailleuses and trench can­ non are among the spoils. Other bat­ teries In casements and at Herbcourt have not yet been counted. The Belgian artillery war violently active. Germans Lack Munitions? The accumulation of munitions be­ hind the allied front Is prodigious, while the Germans' stock is appar­ ently less plentiful, os their reply Is In the proportion of one shot for five. Tills leads to the Impression among observers that their extended front Is not-as well equipped or manned as in previous battles. The fighting about Verdun centers chiefly on the Damloup works, which have changed hands twice within the I last twenty-four hours, the Germans first taking them and the French recapturing them after a desperate coun- i ter-attack. British Advance Slowly. British Headquarters in France. ( July 4.—Fighting continues Intense on virtually the whole British front. IMtrtnnt change. The British have heavily bombarded Thlepvul.

The surrender of the remnant of the German garrison at La Bolsselle was officially announced. Advance East of Ancre. A further advance has been made by the British forces to the east of the Ancre river. To tin* north of the town of Aricourt they have pushed for­ ward and have gained ground al a higher elevation. News of the offensive came In very slowly, but while people were anxious tor Information, they showed no dis­ appointment nt the delay. While lhe army on the sot uh front Is making Its big effort the troops on the northern end nre not inactive. Off the Belgian const British monitors nre throwing shells across the snnd dilnes to keep the Gentians In their trendies. The Belgians, who recently took over another stretch of tht; front, keep up a bombardment which equals that of the British guns. What with the heavy gunfire and the raids of Infantry detachments the Germans are kept busy from one end of the line to the other and threatened attacks at every point warn them against sending re-enforcements to the Somme region. Berlin Admits Retreat Berlin, via London, July 4.—The war office report says that continuation/>f the French and British drive on both sides of the Somme hps not gained any advantage for the allies north of the river, but south of the Somme the Ger­ mans withdrew a division to the sec­ ond line positions.

If we were capable of blend­ ing Teas and Coffees and selecting them according to their style and cup, we could command a much larger salary than we can ever expect to make in this grocery business in Nashville. For this reason we de­ pend upon Chase & Sanborn and Marco to blend our teas and coffees. They are two of the oldest booses in the United States, the largest importers of high grade Teas and Coffees and have made that particular line a lifetime study. They do not go on the exchange and buy their goods, but hive experts on the different plantations, all over the world, who select their goods according to the standard adopted for each grade. That is the reason you always find them uniform. Colin T.

General Fred Funston has been fre­ quently referred to, of late, as "the lucky dog of tbe«rmy,” because—as the reports have it, he always seems to be “Where H—-1 is popping.” It was Funston, a major then, wbo took a small body of picked men and captured the fampus Filipino leader Aguinaldo In the heart of that wily bandit’s mountains—without the loss of a man. It was Funston wbo took charge of the situation at San Fran­ cisco in April 1906, and brought almost immediate order out of chaos. And it is Funston now, who is on the ground directing at the Rio Grande border. It ahnost seems an though it is the government and the jteople wbo are the ‘‘lucky ones” in having men like Fred Funston on the job; men whose character and abilities have enabled them to rise from Hie ranks against innumerable obstacles In the way of tradition and military caste. ' Possibly somebody makes it a point to know when His Satanic Majesty Is firing up, and stations men aith proven records at points where the “popping” is most likely to begin. “Luck” as a general proposition, is a mighty poor compass to ateer by.

She did not die as she had lived or as idle had hoj>ed. From the poor lodging houses or shabby tenements to which she flitted to avoid acquaint­ ances and tax collectors, she had been taken, a few weeks ago. to the rather pretentious home of her boil CoL Ed­ ward H. IL Green. It was there she passed away, after three strokes of paralysis had sapped her little strength. She was elghty-one years old last November, "somewhere around the 20th," as she herself had testified In court. Left 1100.000,000. With a fortune estimated at about $100,000,000, about $90,000,000 of it cre­ ated by her own efforts, Mrs. Green had earned the title of the world’s greatest mistress of finance. What won for her a unique place tn the public eye. however, was not her vast fortune, but her use of it. She wore the same old black skirt and cape and black bonnet for years; she lived In lodging houses and In cheap tene­ ments; she ate In lunchrooms and often cooked her own frugal meals; and yet she maintained a rather pre­ tentious residence in Bellows Falla, Vt It is there she will be buried on Wednesday, In the cemetery of the Episcopal church. Was Popular Society Girl. For 45 years Mrs. Green, once a popular society girl In New York’s bert set, had saved and scrimped and lived cheaply. Hetty Green’s life was unusual from birth. She was born In New Bedford. Maas., when that city was the whaling center of the world and her father was the king of the business. He was Edward Mott Robinson, of an old and respected New England family. Hetty Robinson was sent to a Quaker school on Cape Cod and to a semi­ nary In Boston, and got her first les­ sons in finance when her aging father intrusted her with some of his books. Son Takes Over Her Affairs. She was Just thirty years old when her father died suddenly, leaving her his nine millions. It is forgotten that Hetty Green, then Robinson, was a belle in New York society. Her son. Colonel Green, and her daughter, Mr*. Matthews Astor Wilks, who are the only children, had been with her much of the time, and It was recently reported that Mrs. Green had turned over all of her financial affairs | to her son’s charge.

La Maisonette farm .and the village of Barieux The retaking of the Trones woods which the British captured Saturday night, came after a series of violent attacks. The attack that succeeded was the sixth in 24 hours and was made with all the power of the Ger­ man machine. Tbe British and French war offices each announced the capture of several hundred prisoners In the day’s fight­ ing. Several guns also were taken. Without relenting in their drive on the Somme the French opened up a new attack in-the Champagne. The capture of trenches over a front of 500 meters west of Mesnil was an­ nounced as a result In the capture-of the line of trenches near Barieux the French made*1950 prisoners. The British statements admits the recapture of the Trones woods, but says It wus accomplished at Life cost of tremendous-losses. The British operations for the day on the Somme front were confined al­ most entirely to the section near Contalmalson nnd the Trones woods. There was some activity on the Flanders front. The French statement reports the capture of the German trenches situ­ ated between the village of Barieux and La Maisonnette. In the Champagne. In addition to the attacks near Mesnil, there were two others, southeast and west of‘ Tahure. These also are re|M>rted to have been successful.

THE WORLD OVER The cotton waste of Lancashire, England, has an annual value of 175.000.000. The re-export coffee trade leaped this year from almost nothing up to 61,491,903 pounds. Except along the Caspian coast, Per­ sian agriculture is dependent almost entirely on irrigation. According to the last federal census there were at that time 13^94,213 for­ eign-born whites in the United States. Five per cent of the population of this country earns Its living directly or Indirectly in the electrical business.

She inclined her head. “Yes.' I’ll— ”et iff "Going to church," said Bibbs. “It is going to church when I go with you!” She went to the front door with him; ohe always went that far. They had formed a little code of leave-taking, by habit neither of them ever speak­ ing of it; but it was always the same. She always stood in the doorway until ho reached the ladewaik, and there bo always turned and looked back, and she waved her band to him. Then he went on, half-way to the new bouse, and looked back again, and Mary was not in the doorway, but the door was open and the light shone. It was as if she meant to tell him that she would never shut him out; be could always see that friendly light of the open doorway—as If It were open for him to come back, if he would. He coald see It until a wing of the new house came between, when be went up the path. The open doorway seemed to him the beautiful symbol of her friendship—of her thought of him; a symbol of her­ self and of her Ineffable kindness. And she kept tbe door open—even tonight, though the sleet and fine sdow swept in upon her bare throat and arms, and her brown hair was strewn with tiny white stars. His heart leaped as be turned and saw that she was there, waving her band to him, as if he did not know that the storm touched her. When he bad gone on, Mary did as she always did—she went Into an unlit room across tbe hall from that In which they bad spent the evenlng, and. looking from the window, watched him until he was out of sight The storm made that difficult tonight, but she caught a glimpse of him under the street lamp that stood Ik-tween tbe two houses, and saw that he turned to look back again. Then, and not before, she looked at tbe upper windows of Roscoe's house across the street. They were dark. Mary waited, but after a little while she closed the front door and returned to her window. A moment later two of the upper win­ dows of Roscoe's bouse flashed into light and a band lowered the shade of one of them. Mary felt the cold then —It was the third night she had seen those windows lighted and that shade lowered, just after Bibbs had gone. Bibbs stopped at his last look back at the open door, and. with a thin mantle of white already upon his shoulders, made his way. gasping in the wind, to the lee of the sheltering wing of the new house. A stricken George, muttering hoarse­ ly. admitted him. and Bibbs became aware of a paroxysm within the house. Terrible sounds came from the li­ brary: Sheridan cursing as never be­ fore: his wife sobbing, her voice risinq to an agonized squeal of proteat upon each of a series of muffled detonations —the outrageous thumping of a band­ aged hand upon wood: then Gurney, sharply imperious. “Keep your hand In Hint sling! Keep your hand in that sling, I say!” “Look! ’ George gasped, delighted to play herald for so important a tragedy: and be renewed upon bls face the ghastly expression with which be had first beheld the ruins his calamitous gesture laid before the eyes of Bibbs. “Look at 'a la in I dal statue!” Gazing down the hall, Bibbs saw hereto wreckage, seemingly Byzantine —painted colossal fragments of a shat­ tered torso, appallingly human; and gilded and silvered heaps of magnifi­ cence strewn among ruinous palms like the spoil of a barbarians* battle. There had been a massacre, in the oasis—the Moor had been hurled from his pedestal. "He hit 'at ole lamldal statue,” said George. “Pow!” “My father?’’ there. Now, see: Isn’t ?

And so why not let it live? You've about come to the end of your string, old fellow. Why not stop tills perpetual devilish fighting and give Bibbs hla chance?” Sheridan stood looking at him fixed­ ly. “What ’fighting?’ ” “Yours—with nature.” Gurney sus­ tained the daunting gaze of his fierce antagonist equably. “You-don’t seem to understand that you’ve been strug­ gling against actual law.” “What law?” (TO BE CONTINUED.) “There’s Our Little Sunshine!"

Gurney sat winding a strip of white cotton, his black bag open upon a chair near by; and Sheridan was strid­ ing up and down, his hand so heavily ■wrapped in fresh bandages that be seemed to be wearing a small boxing­ glove. His eyes were bloodshot; his forehead was heavily bedewed; one side of his collar had broken loose, and there were blood stains upon bis right cuff. "There'B our little sunshine!” he cried, as Bibbs appeared. "There's the hope o' the family—my lifelong pride and joy! 1 want—” “Keep your band in that sling,” said Gurney, sharply. Sheridan turned upon him. uttering a sound like a bowl. “For God’s sake, nlng another tune!” be cried. "You Bald you ‘came as a doctor but stay as a friend,' and In that capacity you undertake to ait up and criticize me—" “Oil. talk sense," said the doctor, and yawned intentionally. "What do you want Bibbs to say?" "You were Bittin’ up there tellln’ me I got 'hysterical'—*bysterlcal.’ oh Lord! You sat up there and told me I got ‘hysterical’ over nothin’!

BROWN’S THE PENSLAR STORE MOST PEOPLE DREAD GLASSES Both from the discomfort and the appearance they give. You have seen people wear glasses, however, that really added to their appearance. Others have found them a help to their sight and comfort rather than a hindrance. It isn’t often that it “just happens” that glasses look attractive and as comfortable as well. Our optician, Mr. Springborg, studies your appearance and takes this into consideration the same as testing and fitting your eyes properly. He con­ siders the length of the eye lashes, the shape of the nose at base, distance from center to center of eyes, width of face, etc, and our price is no more than you would pay parties knowing little or nothing about " ’ business. ed customers are our best advertisement.

Even in a town like ours there are many old people who will not have a motor ride this summer unless some good fellow makes it a special order of business. Think of the pleasure a two-hour jaunt In the country would bring to some sweet old lady, but It will not give her half the joy it will you. That big-hearted feeling that always goes with a good time. If you are planning a trip to some near­ by town reserve a place for some­ one who seldom goes. If you have to spend ten minutes to help her In and out of the car so much the better—It will be like the biblical bread cast up­ on the waters, it will bring you big returns.

Just roll up some tobacco in a Tbcre arc, perhaps, over 800 brands ©f cigarettes sold in this country today. But Dot one of them does what Chester­ fields do—“for Chesterfields are MILD ; and yet they SATISFY. Some cigarettes may be mild, but they don’t satisfy. Only one cigarette does BOTH—Chesterfield! This truly unique cigarette has all of that refreshing taste - delicacy (or mildness) which any good cigarette must have. Yet, without sacrificing any of this delightful mildness, Chesterfields go one step further—they do more than merely “please your taste**—they let you know you’ve been smoking. They satisfy! And yet they’re r^ild! A Stop Forward W£ «re prood to be the firm that bu • ’ brought about thia important new The mild, yet satisfying Chesterfield blend is not the result of happy chance. It is one of the results of our many yean of cigarette experience — of the heavy volume of our purchases of cigarette to­ bacco— of the prestige and advantage these enormous purchases give us in se­ curing the choicest leaf from the tobacco fields of the world. Chesterfields are an achievement. A New Thing for a Cigarette to Da ^HESTERFIELDS do the one thing you have always wished a cigarette would do—they satisfy !

The train employes on all the railroads are voting whether they will give their leaders authority to tie up the commerce of the country to enforce their demands for a 100 million dollar wage increase. The railroads are in the public service— your service. This army of employes is in the public service—your service. You pay for rail transportation 3 billion dollars a year, and 44 cents out of every dollar from you goes to the employes. On all the Eastern Railroads in 1915, seventy-five per cent of the train employes earned these wages (lowest, highest, and average of ail) as shown by the payrolls— Passenger Freight Yard $1^83 «i 7g-? 2992 51 $’??3 $1543 21 /a s »>«■ Engineer! .

The managers of the railroads, as trustees for the public, have no right to place this burden on the cost of transportation to you without a clear mandate from a public tri­ bunal speaking for you. The railroads have proposed the settle­ ment of this controversy either under the existing national arbitration law, or by refer­ ence to the Interstate Commerce Commis­ sion. This offer has been refused by the employes’ representatives. Shall a nation-wide strike or an investigation under the Gov­ ernment determine this issue?

He spent what he made, or he gave it away, Tried to save money, and would for a dav Started a bank-account time an* again, Got a hundred or so for a nest egg, an’ then Some fellow that needed it more than he did, That was down on bis luck, with a sick wife or kid Came along an’ he wasted no time till he went ’ drew out the coin that for saving was meant x ney say he died poor, <­ To pile up a fortune he hadn’t a show; He worked all the time an’ good money he made, Was known as ^n excellent man at his trade, But he saw too much, heard too much, felt too much here To -save anything by the end of the year; An’ the shabbiest wreck the Lord ever let live Could get money from him if he had it to give. Seen him slip dimes to the bums on the street That told him they hungered for something to eat. An’ though I remarked they were going for drink He’d say : “Mebbe so. But I’d just hate to think That fellow was hungry an’ I’d passed him by. I’d rather be fooled twenty times by a lie Than wonder if one of ’em I wouldn’t feed Had told me the truth an’ was really in need.” Never stinted his family out of a thing They had everything that his money could bring, Said he’d rather be broke an’ just know they were glad Than rich with them pining an’ wishing they had Some of the pleasures his money would buy ; Said he never could look a bank book in the eye If he knew it had grown on the pleasures an' joys That he’d robbed from his wife an’ his girls an’ his boys. Queer sort o’ notion he had, I confess, Yet many a rich man on earth is mourned less Than he was. Folks came far an’ wide To pay their respects on the day he died. Didn’t leave much in the bank, it is true But did leave a fortune in people who knew The big heart of him, an' I’m willing to swear That today he is one of the richest up there. —Edgar A.

Do you know that the Lord more than two thousand years ago gave through the Prophet Daniel, a clear description of the times in which we are now living? Do you know that the Bible, In re­ ferring to this present time as "the time of the end," does not signify the destruction of the earth, but the end of the present dispensation, after which a new age will be Introduced —the Millenium? "The earth ahideth forever."—Eccl. 1:4. Do you know that the Millennial age was specially preached about by ibe Apostles as "The Day ot Christ." "The Kingdom of God." etc.?—and that It was the earnest faith of the early Church ?—Phil. 1-6; Mark 114 Do you know of the Apostle Peter's reference to it, in Arts 3:19-21. where he calls It the times of resti­ tution of all things which God hath spoken by the mouth of all the holy prophets?" Do you know that St. Peter there declares that these limes of blessing will not precede, but will follow, the Second Coming of our Lord Jesus? Do you know that the prophecies and signs which now herald the sec­ ond auvent of Christ are much more distinct than were those signs and prophecies which marked His flrsi advent? Do you know that the object <>: the Second Coming of Christ, as well as its manner, is generally misuuder stood? That His coming, according to the Scriptures, means the blessing of all the families of the earth? Do you know that the Church which God is electing or selecting dur­ ing this Gospel age Is promised a spiritual or heavenly reward?—to be "made partakers of the divine na­ ture" (2 Pet. 1:4), and to share with Christ the work of blessing the world during the Millennium, but that the Lord’s provision for those who accept His grace during the Millennial age is a restitution or restoration of the perfections of hu­ man nature (lost by sin) in Paradise restored—Che new earth?—Acts 3:­ 19-21; Rev. 21:1-4. Do you know that the large ma­ jority of humanity have never had any trial, because they died In total Ignorance of the only name given whereby they can be saved? Do you know that some living In civilized lands have never had a full knowledge of the gospel with a full opportunity to show whether they would choose righteousness or sin; because they have had comparatively little knowledge of righteousness, by either experience or observation, and great experience only with sin, with­ in and without? Do you know that the Millennial age is tor the very purpose of causing the knowledge of the Lord to fill the whole earth as the waters cover the sea, and to open the eye of men's un­ derstanding and to unstop their ears that they may hear God's message ot mercy, and see "the true light which ligbletii every man that cometh Into the world”? i«u: 11.9; 35:5; John 1: 9. I>o you know that many of the most prominent ministers of the various denominations are preaching on every other subject than the gos­ pel. while some of them are denying the fall, the redemption and a com­ ing restitution, so clearly taught in the Bible, and teaching, instead. Evo­ lution —yea. and even denying the in­ spiration of the Bible? Do you know that we can supply you helpful literature on all these subjects which will in every case cite you. not to the creeds and opinions of fallible men. however good, but to the words of our Lord, the apostles and phophets? "That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men. but in the power of God."—1 Cor. 2:5, 9-14 I>o you know that Pastor Russell's j "Studies in the Scriptures" treat ev­ ery phase of Christian doctrine and | practise, and that they are supplied by our Association at cost price, or loaned to those too poor to buy? <a These books have reclaimed more skeptics and established more Chris­ tians than any other works in the world.

He said they bad given Mexican bandits the Impression of a country divided against Itself. I Fall sharply replied that the “weak­ ness and vacillation" of the adminis­ tration had given bandits a frequent assurance that they could destroy American Ilves and property without fear of punishment FIERCE FIGHT FOR FLEURY Town Changes Hands Three Times Within Twenty-Four Hours— Now Held by French.

For six months railway accountants througbodf the country ^ava bean en­ gaged in collecting the payroll records to show the actual wage payments to every Individual employe among tbe 800X100 engineers, conductors, firemen and brakemen now voting on a na­ tional strike for a new wage scale. That these employes are one of the highest paid groups of workers In any industry la disclosed by the summary made public today by the railroad managers. Tbe average yearly wage payments to aS Eastern train employes (Includ­ ing those who worked only part of the service), earned these wages: Engineers (road), *1,583 to *3^24; (yard), *1.303 to *2,178.

In con­ sequence. an understatement of tbe earning power of these employes. An Appeal to the Public. Tbe National Conference Committee, in making these wage figures public, says: “Do you believe tn arbitration or Industrial warfare? "The train employes on all the railroads are voting whether they will give tbelr leaders authority to tie up the commerce of tbe coun­ try to enforce their demands for a *100,000,(KX) wage Increase. "The railroads are tn the public service—your service. This army of employees is in the public service —your service. "Ton pay for rail transportation *3,000.000.000 a year, and 44 cents out of every dollar from you goes to the employes. “A *100.000.000 wage Increase for men tn freight and yard service (less than one-fifth of all employes) is equal to a 5 per cent advance In all freight rates. "The managers of the railroads, as truatees for the public, have no right to place this burden on tun cost of transportation to you with­ out a clear mandate from a public tribunal apeaking for you. "The railroads have proposed the settlement of this controversy either under tbe existing national arbitra­ tion law, or by reference to the Interstate Commerce Commission This offer has been refused by the employes' representative*.

Thus ft was with Sheridan, who read nothing except newspapers, business letters and figures; who looked upon books as be looked upon bric-a-brac or crochet­ ing—when he was at home, and not abed or eating, he was in tbe library. He stood in the many-colored light of the stained-glass window at tbe far end of the long room, when Roscoe and his wife came lu. and be exhaled a solemnity. His deference to the Sab­ bath was manifest, as always, in the length of bls coat and tbe closeness of his Saturday-night shave; and his ex­ pression, to match this religious pomp. ling fids continued to veil them. She spoke hurriedly, like an ungifted child reciting something committed to mem­ ory, but her sincerity was none the less evident for that. “Father Sheridan, you and mother Sheridan have always been so kind to me, and I would bate to have you think I don't appreciate It, from the way I acted. I’ve come to tell you I am sorry for the way I did that night, and to say I know as well as anybody tbe way I behaved, and it will never hap­ pen again, because it’s been a pretty hard lesson; and when we come badc, some day, I hope you’ll see that you’ve got a daughter-in-law you never need to be ashamed of again. I want to ask you to excuse me for the way I did, and I can say I haven’t any feelings toward Edith now, but only wish her happiness and good in ber new life. I thank you for all your kindness to me, and I know 1 made a poor return for It, but If you can overlook the way I behaved I know 1 would feel a good deal happier—and I know Roscoe would, too. I wish to promise not to be as foolish In the future, and the same error would never occur again to make us all so unhappy, if you can be charitable enough to excuse it this time." He looked steadily at. her without replying, and she stood before him, never lifting her eyes: motionless, save where the moving fur proved the agitation of her bands within the muff. “All right,” be said, at last. She looked up then with vast relief, though there was a revelation of heavy tears when tbe eyelids lifted. "Thank you," she said. * "There’s something else—about something dif­ ferent—I want to say to yoa, but I want mother Sheridan to bear It, too.” “She's upstairs In her room,” said Sheridan. “Roscoe—” Sibyl Interrupted. She had just seen Bibbs pass through the ball and begin to ascend the stairs; and In a flash she instinctively perceived the chance for precisely the effect she wanted. “No, let me go," she said. “I want to speak to ber a minute first, any- And she went away quickly, gaining the top of the stairs In time to set Bibbs enter bls room and close the door. Sibyl knew that Bibbs, in bls room, had overheard her quarrel wfth Edith in the hall outside; for bitter Edith, thinking the more to shame her, bad subsequently informed her of the circumstance. Sibyl bad Just remem­ bered this, and with the recollection there had flashed the thought—out of her own experience—that people are often much more deeply Impressed by words they overbear than by words directly addressed to them. Sibyl in­ tended to make it impossible for Bibbs not to overbear. She did not hesitate —her heart was hot with tbe old sore, and she believed wholly In the Justice of her cause and in the truth of what she wns going to say. Fate was vir­ tuous at times; It had delivered into her hands' the giri who had affronted Mrs. Sheridan was in her own room The approach of Sibyl Ind Roscoe bn<~ driven her from the library, for rii lad miscalculated ber busband's mood, ind she felt that if be used his injured hand as n mark of emphasis again, in her presence, she would (as she thought of it) "have a fit right there.” She Heard Sibyl's step, and pretended to be putting a touch to her hair before a mirror. , “I was Just coming down,” she said, as the door opened. “Yes, be wants you to,” said Sibyl. 'It's all ngbt, mother Sheridan. He’s forgiven me." Mrs. Sheridan sniffed instantly; tears appeared. She kissed her daughter-in-l^w’s cheek: then, in silence, re­ garded the mirror afresh, wiped her eyes, and applied powder. “And I hope Edith will be happy," Sibyl added, inciting more applications of Mrs. Sheridan's handkerchief and powder. "Yps, yes," murmured the good wom­ an. "We mustn't make the worst of things." “Well, there was something else I had to aay, and be wants you to hear It, too,’ said Sibyl. “We better go down^ mother Sheridan." She led the way. Mrs. Sheridan fol­ lowing obediently, but, when they came to a spot close to Bibbs’ door, Sibyl stopped. “I want to tell you about It first," she said, abruptly. “It Isn't a secret, of course, in any way; it’s something the whole family has to know, and tbe sooner the whole family knows It tbe better. It's something It wouldn't be right for us all not to un­ derstand, and of course father Sheri­ dan most of all. But I want to just kind of go over it first with you; it 'll kind of help me to see I got It all straight I haven’t got any reason for saying it except the good of the family, and It's nothing to me, one way or the other, of course, except for that I oughtn’t to ’ve behaved tbe way I did that night and It seems to me If there’s anything 4 can do to help the family, I ought to, because it would help show I j frit tbe right way.

The same, however, can not be isaid of congress or the government of the United States. There are thousands of men serv­ ing in the National Guard regiments on the border who have left families or dependent relatives behind with­ out the necessary means of sustain­ ing life while the bread winner is away serving his country. In many coses the business ployers of thsse soldiers have voluntarily been paying their employ­ ees their salaries while they are with the army. In such cases the families hardship on do not suffer, but it is the employer. In other cases the — dependent -------------families are supported by local con­ tributions. which amounts to nothIng less than charity. Is this right? Should the government of the United States, the richest nation in the world, expect the dependent families of its soldiers to be support­ ed by private charity or starve death? system that permits such con­ ditions to exist conducive to patrio­ tism on the part of the young mar­ ried men of the country? It is not. rew As it stands today .... patriotic -----------employers and private citizens are bearing the burden that should be placed upon the shoulders of 11 ofthe people through means of general taxation. When the welfare of the nation re­ quires the placing of an army in the field the expense of such an army, of every nature, should be borne from the public funds, and no individual citizen should be asked or expected to pay more than his Just portion. It Is within the power of congress to right this wrong if It so desires, and for the sake of our young men in the ranks, of their families at home, and for the sake of common decency. It is to be hoped that for once con­ gress will not shirk its plain duty. BRANCH SCHOOL REUNION. The 6th annual reunion of the puthe pits, teachers and patrons Branch school.

PratL—AdvL "it was the best camp ever,” is the way one of the boys characterized the Barry County Y.-M. C. A. camp which closed Friday, August 4. Thirty-six boys and 6 leaders attend­ ed and over 120 relatives and friends visited the camp during the 10 days. All the leaders were Barry county boys with the exception of Prof. Roscoe Sleight of Albion College who bad charge of the Bible Study and Educational department. Dr. A. W. Woodburne, Prof. Sleight, former secretary, D. C. Vandercook, and Secretary L. C. Reimann were the principal speakers on the camp­ fire program and some splendid messages were given to our boys. Those boys who were there will always re­ member old Camp Barry and those who did not go missed a great deal. The little 18-montb-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Jones of As­ syria met with a very painful and un­ timely accident, and especially so for one of her age. The accident oc­ curred Monday evening at the home of Mr. Jones' parents, Mr. and Mrs. Bert Jones, where Mr. Jones had been helping his father draw oats. As they were unhitching the team from the wagon at the close of the day’s work, one of the horses became frightened at something before it was entirely free from the wagon and ran away, going up a steep bank with the wagon, which was partly loaded with oats, and across the yard, where Mr. Jones' little daughter was at play. In some unknown manner the little one was either hit by the wagon or horse and her right leg broken about an inch below the hip joint. Drs. F. F. Shilling and E. T. Morris were sum­ moned at once and made the little tot as comfortable as possible, con­ sidering the seriousness of the frac­ ture, but it will be necessary for the little sufferer to remain absolutely quiet for a period of about five weeks, a task that would try the patience of one even of mature years.

Inland of Detroit seems to meet with considerable fayor in local circles and is also making strong gains throughout the state. Wayne county will give Mr. Leland almost solid support as at a recent meeting of various factions it appeared that all were united on him. Mr. I .eland was born on an Oakland county r«rm mid today m> and operates the farm on which his boyhood was spent. He worked his way through the Unlreralty of Mlcklgan, and has made good as a lawyer in Flint and Detroit. He has been twice elected a regent of the Univer­ sity of Michigan, which office he has filled with credit and ability as is evi­ denced by the great support he is recelving from the thousands of Universlty alumni. Mr. Iceland organized a savings bank, of which he has been president for 15 years, and is a thoroughly capable business man who would make “governor wrong enough to bring about improved methods in the state s system of taxation ana expenditures. concerning which* he has expressed himself in no uncertain terms. Mr. Leland is a man of high ideals, undaunted course and tlrcloaa Industry and his election to the* office of governor would mean the inaugu­ ration of many important public Improvements. with a big reduction in expenses, which would be a relief to the overburdened taxpayers of the state. Mr. Leland la not tied to any of the factions or interests and. as governor, would be in a posltion to give the state better service than if he had alliances with the past and promises for the future. He has no elements of weakness to dedofend or explain. Mlcbigan needs an honest man for governov aud one ot W>Ulty. courage. broadmindedness and good common broadmindedness sense. Such a man is Frank B. Leland. pledged to Frank B. Lelands candldacy for governor, his chances of sc­ curing the nomination have been *reatl* improved.

Leland August 29 The Republican who United the Party in Wayne County. |z> rrpuicK^^rcAsir^sTVjeff-1 WILLIAM H. HILL Candidate for the Republican Nomi­ nation for United States Sena­ tor August 29th. William H. Hill is a Republican and it is as a thorough-going, uncom­ promising Republican that he offers himself at the Primaries August 29 for the Republican nomination for United States Senator. But there are certain characteristics of Mr. Hill’s Republicanism that he wishes thoroughly understood. He is neither a radical, nor a conservative; ieast of all is he a reactionary. By radicalism Mr. Hill understands iction not based on good judgment snd common sense; by conservatism, i lack of action that amounts to timidity, failure to grasp new condi­ tions; by reactionism, no action at ill—stagnation. Mr. Hill is progressive in his prac­ tice and application of Republican theory and doctrine. By that he means that he recogaixes new facts, new conditions, when they arise and believes that theory ina principles of government should he adapted to fit tnese new facts and conditions. There should always be progress. One cannot stand still One should idvance with the times—molding and idapting principles to the new prob­ lems that arise, but never altering the fundamentals. It is this sort of Re­ publicanism that Mr. Hill practices ind will practice. That he has the courage of his con­ viction* was proved in 1912 when, relieving that the conditions of ,that Pour demanded it. he followed Colpnel Roosevelt. He ran for Confressman-at-large and polled the argest vote, next to Roosevelt, run­ ning ahead of his ticket 20,000, and txceeding the vote of the Republican aominee for governor by 5,000. Mr. Hill remains unshaken in his belief in the soundness of the pro­ gressive Republican theories. Those who believe in progressivism as a accessary element in all political theory and who supported Mr. Hill so generously in 1912 may rest assured that the same ideals of government For which he stood at that time will ictuate his conduct if he is nominated for United States Senator and elected an the Republican tickeL Support bint as you did four years tgo and it will mean that the advoyites of progress and humanity will iave a friend in court.

Killing tlu>se large beasts was hard and dangerous work, but It was very exciting. Once the hunters went out after a herd, each riding his best pony. One, who had attacked a large bull, failed to strike a vital part with hia arrows, and pursued the beast aeroc* the prairie. “Suddenly in the mad race hunter and prey came to a buffalo path that bad been washed down by the heavy rains till It was two or three feet deep. The horse stumbled, threw the man into the ditch, and then dashed off, leaving him helpless. The buffalo saw the accident, turned, and tided desperately to gore the hunter. But the ditch was too narrow, and so the buffalo reached down and with Its long tongue began to lick the man’s bore back. Every stroke of that rough tongue tore the skin and flesh pain­ fully. The Indian could only bear It, for If be tried to escape he would meet death at the horns of the en­ raged beast Before his companions found him and killed the buffalo, it had licked the flesh from his baric down to the bone, and the poor mail bore the scars of that terrible reveng^ to his grave.—Youth’s Companion.

NASHVILLE'S ANCIENT HISTORY Mrs Freeman Ward pawed away at the Good Samaritan hospital. HastInga. Thursday, August 17, after a long period. of Illness. Mrs. Ward was a yqung woman of beautiful character, who cuaratier, woo by u? aei her proci sweet,, loving iuviuk disposition, had endeared herself to a large circle of friends, and gave up a long and brave fight to submit grace-, fully to the Inevitable. “Rene Ward is- dead”. Theset brief words at an early hour Thursday morning heralded the sorrowful announcement, and many hearts throbbed with anguish as the sad news spread over the community. Rene Belle Rapson was born in Kalamo, June 25, 1882, and depart­. ed this life August 17, 1916, at the। age of 34 years, 2 months and 12 days. She was married to Freeman Ward August 29, 1908. To this union one little daughter was born. She leaves to mourn their loss a husband, daughter, father, mother, besides a host ot friends. Mrs. Ward was a universally be­ loved and highly respected young lady. No language can describe her life as wife, daughter and moth­ er. No words can express the loss which her family has suffered. She was a faithful worker In the Rebekah lodge, having held the offlee of Noble Grand as well as other important offices. She was also a member of North Kalamo Grange. The funeral services. In charge of the Rebekah lodge, were held at the Evangelical church Monday, Aug. 21, at 2:30 p. m., Rev. Schuman ofdelating. The floral offerings were profuse and unusually beautiful. Today the mortal remains of Rene Ward are at rest beneath a new mound in beautiful Lakeview cemetery, but her sweet memory lingers with her relatives and friends. ’ place, started Tuesday for Owosso> FORTY YEARS AGO.

The biggest event In automobile circles since the announcement of the reduced Ford prices on August 1 is the Introduction of the new Ford models which embody several radi­ cal changes in the familiar Ford lines. The new cars are of graceful stream-line design, and are equipped with sweeping crown fenders both front and rear. The radiator is larg­■ er to give greater cooling capacity. The car is finished entirely In black with nickeled hub caps and radiator cap, and is equipped with non-skid tires on the rear wheels. In fact it; appears that the Ford Motor Co. has’ produced In this new model a car which for beauty of design will make, It distinctive among motor cars. There has been no change made In the chassis of the Ford motor, with Its record of over 1,500,000 In active1 dally use. Similar changes In de­' sign have been made In all Ford models; runabout, 3345, touring car. I860; coupelet, 3505; town 3595, and sedan, 3645. J. C.

But life was lonely for her, aud the strength of the big. hulk­ ing man had its appeal, to say nothing of the fact that she had only a bit of 'money laid by, while he had not only a good farm and farm lands, but a tidy sum In the bank, left him by his father. ' When Wilfred first showed a prefer­ ence for her, she had been inclined to scouf the Idea of marrying him. But a better acquaintance had proved his sterling qualities, and the nearest thing to love she had ever known for any man had grown up In her heart. Also, she reasoned that his money would allow her to' gratify some of her repressed ambitions, and she expected to remodel his views to meet her ideas. But there are two sides to every question. When the two were mar­ ried and settled down In their farm­ house, Mary found that the habits of middle age are not so easy to change. Wilfred had been brought up by a good and conscientious, but perfectly commonplace mother, who had no Ideas of her own, and believed that what had been good enough for her parents was good enough for her. After some weeks of effort on Mary’s part, the farmhouse took on a new aspect The "best room" was open all day and every day, with new screens at the windows, anS the sun shut out during the heat of the day with awning blinds. A small gas range had been Installed In the kitch­ en beside the big coal stove. Old carpets had been taken away, and cool matting rugs had taken their places in the bedrooms. And, wonder of won­ ders, there was a brand new bath­ room! -i How Mary had brought about these changes she scarcely knew herself. But the results stood, and. If truth were told, Wilfi'4 secretly enjoyed the new regime. However, there was one point on which he stood firm as a rock, Mary had approached it from every angle, but he would not budge. She could not make him give up eating in the 'kitchen! There was an extra room between the kitchen and the sitting room, which seemed to serve no partlcfalar purpose. Mary had planned to turn this into a dining room ever since her arrival at the farmhouse, but Wilfred was up in arms st each new attack aha made. . He always had eaten In the kitchen, he liked It, It was less trouble for ev­ eryone, he wasn’t going to buy new furniture, and so forth and so on. All through the early part of the summer the eating In the hot kitchen had gone on, with Wilfred ’In his shirt sleeves at the head of the table. Mary’s soul rebelled, but, as it seemed the one thing she could not gain without an open fight, she resolved to bide her time. With the beginning of August, the work of taking the heavy loads of gar­ den truck to the nearby city grew greater. Several times a week Wil­ fred himself drove Into town, return­ ing late. And the bank account grew. Meantime, Mary planned her dining­ room campaign. She had resolved upon a bold move. With every preparation made as far ahead as possible, she watched Wil­ fred one morning as he drove away at sunrise from the farm. By the time she had cleared away the break­ fast, the woman engaged for the day had made her appearance. The one­ time storeroom waa emptied of ev­ erything In It, the floor was scrubbed, the windows and paint washed. Then Mary and her helper adjourned to the woodshed, and unpacked the results of Mary’s visit to the city the week before. When bagging and excelsior had been removed, there stood revealed a very pretty oak dinIng table and six chairs. And Out of another package came a straw rug. When all had been put In place, and the china moved from the kitchen shelves to the glass-doored, old-fashloned closet, Mary looked around her with satisfaction. She was very tired, but very content The muslin curtains she had been secretly making were hung. Truly, the room was inviting and tasteful. Mary kept her helper to assist in preparing an unusually good supper, and a little before time for Wilfred to arrive she appeared downstairs fresh and smiling In a pretty afternoon muslin. When Wilfred came, she managed to get him by the closed door and up­ stairs to change his clothes. As he came down she was putting the sup­ per on the table, and If ever a man had a surprise It was he. Msry’a face paled a little, and her hands trembled as she moved the dishes about Wilfred stood Irreso­ lute, swallowed hard once or twice, then pulled out his chair and sat down, remarking, as he did so, in an embarrassed and semi jocular tone: "Pretty swell for a farmer, Mary. Must have cost something." Mary knew that her battle was woe. “I paid for the things out of my savings bank account, Wilfred, and .

And he’d begin to fill out some, but—” Sheridan gave forth another dry chuckle, and, going round the table to her, patted her upon the shoulder with bls left band, his right being still heavily bandaged, though he no longer wore a sling. “That’s the way it Is with you, mamma—got to take your frettln’ out one way If you don’t an­ other!” "No. He don't look welL It ain’t exactly the way be looked when he begun to get sick that time, but he kind o* seems to be Iosin*, some way.” "Yes, he may 'a' lost something.” said Sheridan. “I expect he's lost a whole lot o' foolishness besides his Godforsaken notions about writin’ poetry and—” "No." hla wife persisted. “I mean be looks right peakid.

Tbe priests wore that "settlzb” look Bibbs' mother bad seen beginning to develop about his mouth and eyes—a wary look which she could not define, but it comes with service st the temple; and It was the more marked upon Bibbs for his sharp awakening to tbe neces­ sities of that service. He did as little “useless” thinking as possible, giving himself no time for it He worked continuously, keeping his thoughts still on his work when he came home at night, and he talked of nothing whatever except bls work. But he did not sing at IL He was often in the streets, and people were, not allowed to sing in the streets. They might make any manner of hide­ ous uproar— they could shake build­ ings; they could outthunder the thun­ der, deafen the deaf, and kill the sick with noise; or they could walk the streets or drive through them bawling, squawking or screeching, as they chose. If the noise was traceably connected with business; though street musicians were not tolerated, being considered a nuisance and an interference. A man or woman who went singing for pleas­ ure through tbe streets—like a crazy Neapolitan—would have been stopped, and belike locked up; for freedom does not mean that a citizen is allowed to do every outrageous thing that comes into bls bead. The streets were dan­ gerous enough, in all conscience, with­ out any singing! and the Motor federa­ tion issued public warnings declaring that the pedestrian’s life was in his own hands, and giving directions how to proceed with the least peril. How­ ever, Bibbs Sheridan bad no desire to sing in the streets, or anywhere. He had gone to his work with an energy that, for the start, at leasL was bitter, and there was no song left in him. He began to know bls active fellow citizens. Here and there among them he found a lelsnrely, kind soul, a relic ot the old period of neighborliness, “pioneer stock,” usually; and there were men—particularly among the merchants and manufacturers—“so honest they leaned backward;” repu­ tations sometimes attested by stories of heroic sacrifices to honor; nor were there lacking some instances of gen eroslty even nobler. Here and there, too, were bookmen, In their little lei­ sure; and, among the Germans, music men. And these, with the others, wor­ shiped Bigness and tbe growth, each man serving for his own sake ‘and for what he could get out of IL but a!) united In their faith In tbe beneficence and glory of their god. To almost all alike that service stood as the most important thing in life, ex­ cept on occasion of some such vital, brief Interregnum as the dangerous Ill- “relaxation” some of the servers took golf; some took fishing; some took "shows"—a mixture of Infantile and negroid hdmor, stockings, and tin mu­ sic; some took an occasional debauch; some took trips; some took cards; and some took nothing. The high priests were vigilant to watch that no “relaxa­ tion” should affect the service. When a man attended to anything outside his business, eyes were upon him; bls credit was In danger— that Is, bls life was In danger. And the old priests were as ardent as the young ones; the million was eager to be bigger as the thousand; seventy was as busy as seventeen. They strove mightily against one another, and tbe old priests were the most wary, the most plaus­ ible and tbe most dangerous. Bibbs learned he must walk charily among these—be must wear a thousand eyes and beware of spiders Indeed! And outside the temple Itself were the pretenders, the swarming thieves and sharpers and fleecers, the sly ras­ cals and tbe open rascals; but these were feeble folk, not dangerous once be knew them, and be bad a good guide to point them out to him. They were useful sometimes, he learned, and many of them served as go-betweens in matters where business must touch politics. He learned also how brew­ eries and “traction*' companies and banks and other Institutions fought one another for the political control of the city. The newspapers, he discov­ ered, had lost their andent political in­ fluence, especially with the knowing, who looked upon them with a skep­ tical humor, believing the Journals either to be retained partisans, like lawyers, or else striving to forward the personal ambitions of their owners. Tbe control of tbe dty lay not with them, but was usually obtained by giv­ ing the “floating voters” gin money, and by other largesses. The revenues of the people were then distributed as fairly as possible among a great num­ ber of mee*who had assisted the win­ ning side. Names and titles of of­ fices went with many of the prizes, and most of these title holders were expected to present a busy appearance at times: and. Indeed, some among them did work honestly and faithfully. Bibbs had be^n very .gnorant All these simple things, so well known and customary, astonished him at first and once—in a brief moment of forgetting that be was done with writing—be thought that if be bad known them and written of them, bow hke a satire the plainest relation of them must hare seemed!

Whether there is any con­ nection between these facts and the present use of the cane is, of course, highly theoretical. Man today carries his walking stick for three reasons—it is fashionable, it makes walking easier and in the event of attack it may be used as an article of self-defense. There are many memories and senti­ ments wrapped up in panes. Collec­ tions of them have the same artistic and historical value as any other an­ tiques or curios. If you walk down the avenue with a cane that was once used by the prince of Wales, you probably step a little more proudly.

Certain plants were connected by our ancestors with certain saints, on account of their coming into flower about the time of the occurrence of those saints' days. In this way the snowdrop was called the “purification flower,” from its blossoming about Candlemas; the crocus was dedicated to St Valentine; the daisy to St Mar­ garet (hence Its name marguerite); the cardamine, or lady's smock, to the virgin, its white flowers appearing about Lady day. There was also the Lent lily, or daffodil; the Pasque flower, or anemone; Herb Trinity, Herb Christopher, St Barnaby’s Thistle and the Canterbury bell, in honor of St Augustine of England. H. L. Rockwood SUPERINTENDENT Supt. Rockwood will be at the office in the schoolhouse afternoons of the week before school opens to consult with pro- receipts. Sherwood Williams was in tors with bls stenographer. He had never given her a hint of It; he had hardly dared admit it even to himself. For hs was only a struggling young lawyer. More­ over, he believed her to be engaged to Elmer Savage, who had risen high tn the legal profession and who came to his office every morning in a glittering limousine. So he applied himself in* dustrlousiy to his fluctuating law prac­ tice, and tried to brush from his mind the picture of Edythe Maltland's eyes. His gaze wandered to where she was Kitting at her desk across the room. “I suppose Savage will call for her In a few minutes,” he thought rather bitterly. The girl, seeming unconscious of his gaze, finished her task, and crossing the room, placed the papers on his desk. Sho returned to her machine and tapped tho keys Idly. Finally the door opened and a middle-aged man, dressed In the very latest fashion, en­ tered the room. He nodded briefly to Sherwood. "AU right, Edythe," he called. “The machine is waiting." There was a caress in his tone, and the girl blushed deeply. With a smil­ ing nod at the other mon, she left tho room. After she had gone, Sher­ wood crossed to her desk and looked curiously at the crumbled sheet she had tossed Into the waste basket Smoothing !c out, he read the words she had typ^l. Then he started. For on the blankpuper, written over raid over again, were the words, “Mrs. Sher­ wood Williams.” His heart beat a trifle more quickly. Could it mean that she had been think­ Ing of him? For a brief moment he stared, half hoping, yet not daring to hope. "It doesn’t mean nnythjng." he said softly. “She’s in love wrtL him." The next day was a long and busy, one. Early in the morning he re­ ceived a visit from the head of a weUknown manufacturing company, and when the visitor had gone he called excitedly to his stenographer. “Miss Maitland," he said, “John Brett of the firm of Brett & Harding, has Just been here. He has engaged me to handle his legal business in con­ junction with Hart & Donahue." The girl’s face lighted up with inter* H. KELLOGG. BERNARR M’FADDEN. Building."

Court House News RING OUT THE CHEAP; RING IN QUALITY I asked a shoe man the other day why it was that shoes were so much higher in price than they used to be. "Shoe leather has gone up,” he said. "Most people think that’s the reason. But it’s only one reason. "People are buying better shoes than they used to. They want more comfortable shoes. Better fit. They want longer wear and more style. They want some individuality, too.” I thought to myself: Well here’s a condition just like the one we are experiencing in the automobile business. Nearly every 3400 r. p. m. we have sold this year has been to someone who has driven a lower priced car. I know for myself that it pays to buy better shoes as well as a better car. But it seems that the great big buying public has the same idea, too. I’m particularly strong for the 3400 r. p. m. Chalmers because she’s got tremendous en­ durance.

"Two fellows got on there, accord­ ing to the hoboea who mistook them for some of their own tribe, and climbed on the ‘blind’ of tbe baggage car next to the tender. "Then as we were approaching Apache, the two men. seeing in the distance the campfire of their confed­ erates. climbed over the tender, and at tbe gun's point compelled the en­ gineer to stop the train. "Tbe brakeman, who got off to in­ vestigate. poked his nose into a big ‘six-shooter.’ and was made to un­ couple the engine and the first three cars from the rest of the train. Bandit Opens Fire "While thts was being done, a big, broad-brimmed hat appeared in the open door of our mall car. and after it an automatic gun. The man behind said something, and Mr. Collier lean­ ed out to investigate. Just then the fellow, apparently, the leader of the gang, which at this point joined the first two fellows, fired. "As Collier stepped back, a hall of bullets followed the first one. passing near where his head had been, and tearing a small sieve in the steel plate of the car roof. "Apparently something went wrong at this time, for the big Texan left us and went toward the engine, and the next minute we were moving away from the train." It was during this ride of about a mile that the two mail clerk extin­ guished the lights and hid the reg­ istered mail in the back bins. The train again ame to a stop and all passengers of the three cars, which consisted of the baggage, express and mail car. were lined up. hands up. along the track. Scene Has Funny Side. “We certainly were a funny . sight „ there in the dusk," said Mr. Baker, “the whole crew of us. including the hoboes and the soldier fellow. As we stood at attention the bandits be­ gan to work over the safe, but they apparently were new at the game, for the five charges they set off failed to break the door of the big safe." This safe, it was learned last night, did not contain the money. The cash was in two portable s^fes In the next NASHVILLE'S Like home cooking •, . . after a trip —they satisfy!

Why? the Chesterfield blend! Chesterfield CIGARETTES Destination Is Mexico. Disappointed in not finding much in the mall car the bandits made tbe final attempt at the safe, and then with a remark that "Mexico is not far, and both you and us fellows will be far away tomorrow," they took their departure. Climbing over a barbed-wire fence they mounted their ponies and rode away into the darkness. The report of the holdup was made at Douglas, about forty miles west of Apache, and cowboy posses at once started in pursuit. The bandits made for the Guadalupe mountains, about twenty miles away, and near the Mexican border.

Nature is warning you that that threadbare summer suit, light weight underclothing, etc. are getting out of date, and you will have to get something warmer if you want to be comfortably dressed? If you are wise you will lose no time in stocking your ward­ robe with some of the new clothing and furnishings we are showing for fall and winter wear. By buying now you will get the advan­ tage of a fine large stock to choose from and can get a full sea­ son’s wear from the articles you purchase. Oar store is filled to overflowing with reliable goods of the latest styles, and we want you to call and look them over. You’ll be welcome whether you buy or not. We are exceptionally proud of our showing of this season’s suits. They are the products of two of the leading manufacturing concerns in the country, and, as usual, we back them with our personal guarantee of satisfaction or money refunded. Of course you’ll be interested in the fact that the prices remain the same as in the past—$10 to $20—and we’ll meet all competition at these prices.

The light question on a farm Is a much discussed one. One menus, at very moderate cost, of securing a bril­ liant light. Is to have the old lamps fitted with mantle burners. By using a collar, most any sized lamp may be used. So equipped, the amount of oil burned Is much less than by common wick, and the light is much brighter, and yet not harmful to the eyes. With care the mantle will last a long time. Not Earned. The Idle man does not know what It Is to enjoy rest, for he has not earned It.

I counted the number of saloons and there were seven, because, with the license system, they could not support more. **Time went on; the license was raised and we controlled the business as best we could, and, now, here we are today asking to put in absolute prohibition. । IF WE DO, IN MY JUDGMENT, WE WOULD HAVE PRACTICALLY THE SAME CONDITIONS WE HAD IN YEARS BACK WHEN WE HAD STATE PROHIBITION. AFTER HAVING SEEN THE EFFECTS OF ABSOLUTE PROHIBITION I DO NOT WANT TO SEE IT AGAIN BECOME A LAW IN THIS STATE. < THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF DIVISIONS OF THE STATE WHERE WE CAN ENFORCE IT, SO, LET US START THERE IN A SMALL WAY AND GROW UP TO IT. 4 I I EIGHT.YEARS AGO Hon. Wellington R. Burt spoke the above words when he appeared before the Michigan Constitutional Convention, January 30th, 1908. The principles of Home Rule, and a smaller unit of option were outlined by Mr. Burt. He declared state-wide prohibition to be an unworthy craft. Home Rule allows the unit of prohibition and regulation to be city, village and township in form. It provides for community law and community enforcement. It fosters sane, safe, democratic and stable government of affairs. VOTE “YES” for the Home Rule—smaller unit amendment November 7th, VOTE “RO” against the state-wide prohibition amendment. 1 Write for the booklet — “State-Prohibition The Destroyer of Revenues and Property I L.

Duane had j never been much of n talker, and now . he found Bpewh difficult. But his companion did not seem to mind that I He was n jocose, voluble fellow, prob­ ably glad now to hear the sound of his own voice.

With an exclamation of surprise, Duane leaped off and ran to the outlaw’s side. Stevens was pale, and his face bore beads of sweat. The whole front of nls shirt was soaked with blood. “You’re shot I" cried Diane.' '&/#/ “Wai, who said I wasn’t? Would you mind givln’ ce a lift—on this here pack?", Duane lifted the heavy pack down and then helped Stevens to dismount The outlaw had a bloody foam on his Bps, and he was spitting blood. “Oh, why didn’t you say so!" cried Duane. *1 never thought You seemed all right." -' ■ “Wai, Luke Stevens may be ns gabby as an old woman, but sometimes he doesn’t say anythin’. It wouldn’t have done no good.” Duane hade him sit down, removed hla shirt, and washed the blood from his breast and back. Stevens had been shot in the breast, fairly low down. him. His ride, holding himself and that heavy pack In the saddle, had been a feat little short of marvelous. Duane did not see how it had been possible, and he felt no hope for the outlaw. But he plugged the ^wounds He Made Stevens as Comfortable as Possible. and bound them tightly. “Feller's name wub Brown,” Stevens said. "Me an' him fell out over a hoss good feller.

Every dump of cottouwoofls surrounded n small adobe house. Duane saw Mexicans working in the fields nnd boraemen going tn and fro. Presently he passed u house bigger than the others, with a porch attached. A. woman, young and. pretty, he thought watched him from n door. No one else appeared to notice him. Presently the trail widened Into a road, and that Into a kind of square lined by a number of adobe and log buildings of rudest structure. Within sight were horses, dogs, a couple of steers. Mexlcnfi women with children, nnd white men. all of whom appeared to be doing nothing. His advent cre­ ated no interest until he rode up to the white rften. who were lolling In the shade of a house. This place evi­ dently was a store and saloon, and from the inside came a lazy hum of voices. As Duane reined to a halt one of the loungers in the shade rose with a loud exclamation: “Bust me If thet ain't Luke’s hoss!” The others accorded their Interest. If not assent, by rising to advance toward Duane. •'How about It, Euchre? Aln*t thet Luke’s bay?” queried the first man. “Plain as your nose,” replied the fel­ low called Euchre. “There ain’t no doubt about thet, then,” laughed another, “fer Bosomer’s nose Is shore plain on the landscape.” These men lined up before Duane, nnd ns he coolly regarded them he thought they could have been recog­ nized anywhere as desperadoes. The man called Bosomer, who had stepped forward, had a forbidding face, which showed yellow eyes, an enormous nose, nnd a skin the color of dust, with a thatch of sandy hair. “Stranger, who are you an’ where lif the h—I did you git thet bay boss?” he demanded. Ithuyellow eyes took in Stevens’ horse, then the weapons hung *• on the saddle, and finally turned their glinting, hard light upward to Duane. Duane did not like the tone In which he .had been addressed, and he re- malned silent. Something leaped In­ side of him and made his breast feel tight He recognized it as that strange emotion which had shot through him often of late, and which had decided him to go out to the meeting with Bain. Only now it was different and more powerful. "Stranger, who are you?" asked an­ other man. somewhat more civilly. "My name's Duane," replied Duane, curtly. "An’ bow'd you come by the hoss?" Dunne answered briefly, r.nd his wo’ds were followed by a short silence. '1 Want the Hoss an’ Them Guns." ci u ring which the men looked at him.

"We don’t know who be'is or where he halls from," replied Euchre. "Thet’s always been somethin’ to interest the gang. He must have been a young man when he struck Texas. Now he’s middle-aged. I remember how years ago he was soft-spoken an’ not rough in talk or act like he is now. Bland ain’t likely his right name. He knows a lot He can doctor you, an’ he’s shore a knowln* feller with* tools. He’s the kind thet rules men.

"I reckon there's short of a hundred now. The number varies. Then Bland has several small camps up an’ down the river. Also he has men back on the cattle-ranges." "How does he control such a big force?" asked Duane. “Especially when his band's composed of bad men. Luke Stevens said he bad no use for Bland. And I heard once somewhere that Eland was a devil."

"Speakln' of this here swift wrist game," went on Euchre, “there’s been considerable talk In camp i * your throwin’ of a gun.

Next morning Duane found that a moody and despondent spell had fas­ tened on him, Wishing to be alone, he went out and walked a trail leading round the river blufU He thought and thought After a while he made cut that the trouble with him probably, wns that he could not resign himself to his fate. He cared vastly more, he discovered, for niiat ho considered honor and Integrity than ho did for life. He saw that It was bad for him to be alone. But It appeared, lonely mouths and perhaps years Inevitably must bo his. Another thing puzzled him. In the bright light of day he could not recall the state of mind that was bls at twilight or dusk or In the dark night By day these visitations became to him what they really were—phantoms of his conscience. Ho could dismiss the thought of them then. He could scarcely remember or believe that this strange feat of fancy or imagination had troubled him, made him sleepless and sick. At length he determined to create interest in all that he came across and so forget himself as much as pos­ sible. He had an opportunity now to see just what the outlaw's life really was. He meant to force himself to be curious, sympathetic, clear-sighted. And he would stay there in the valley until its possibilities had been ex­ hausted or until circumstances sent him out upon his uncertain way. When he returned to the shack Euchre was cooking dinner. “Say, Buck. I’ve news for you,” he said; and his tone conveyed either pride in his ifossessloa of such news or pride in Duane. "Feller named Bradley rode in this mornln’. He's beard some about you. Told about the ace of spades they put over the bullet-holes in thet cowpuncher Bain you plugged. Then there was a ranch­ er shot at a water-hole twenty miles south of Wellston. Reckon you didn't do itr “No, I certainly did not,” replied Duane. “Wai, you get the blame. It ain’t nothing for a feller to be saddled with gun-plays he never made. An', Buck, If you ever get famous, as seems like­ ly, you'll be blamed for many a crime. The border ’ll make an outlaw an’ murderer out of you. Wal, thet’s enough of thet. Tve more news. You’re goln’ to be popular.” “Popular? What do you mean?’ "I met Bland's wife tills mornln’. She seen you the other day when you rode in. She shore wants to meet you, an’ so do some of the other women tn camp. They always want to meet the new fellers wbo’ve just come In. It’s lonesome for women here, an* they like to hear news from the towns." ’ “Well. Euchre, I don't want to be impolite, but rd rather not meet any women,” rejoined Duane. “I was afraid you wouldn’t Don’t blame you much. Women are hell. I was hopin’, though, you might talk a little to thet poor lonesome kid." “What kidr Inquired Duane, In sur, prise. "Didn’t I teU you about Jennie—tho girl Bland's boldin’ here?" “No. Tell me now," replied Duane* abruptly. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Never Satisfied.

Here each took his place with* more or less distinction, according to the record of his past wild prowess and his present possibilities. Duane, realizing that ho was tolerated there, received in care­ less spirit by this terrible class of outcasts, experienced a feeling of re­ vulsion that amounted almost to hor­ ror.

Does Prohibition Prohibit? "Give me a package of those cigarettes that SATISFY. fl Prohibition does Not Prohibit fl Prohibition substitutes the blind-pig, the pocket-peddler, drug-store saloon, the jug train, the express blind tiger, all illegal, living by illegal means, existing by law violation by their patrons, for tbe licensed saloon. Prohibition cannot relieve tbe people they seek to abolish. CIGARETTES fl Alabama bears witness to the fallacy of prohibition. I -and yet they re Alabama's Testimony: (From the National Monthly, July.) "Alabama's prohibition law lias been flagrantly violated in the rural communities since it became operative two years ago. Men, known as prohibitionists, are financially concerned in this wholesale viola­ tion of law. State representatives who voted for passage of prohibi tion are parties to a conspiracy to make money out of the law. All this has been an open secret for a long time But no one was prepared for the revelation that millions ar-invested in this lawless enterprise. "There is no lohger any doubt as to the facts. Prohibition members of t‘«• legislature, municipal and county officials have been caught and are hopelessly entangled in the net spread by the attorney general Liquor in astonishingly large quan­ tity is known to be secreted in small towns throughout the state. It is served to the people by bootleggers and blind pig operators at $1.50 a quart. Cost per gallon to the combine is $2.00. This liouor belongs to prohibition legislators, mayors of towns, sheriffs, probate judges and private citizens with capital to invest.” fl IN GIRARD, ALABAMA, IN JUNE, $1,500,000.00 WORTH OF CONTRABAND LIQUORS WERE FOUND. GIRARD HAS 5,000 POPULATION. STATE TROOPS WERE CALLED OUT TO GUARD THE LIQUOR. THEY WERE ON DUTY SIX WEEKS. fl Illicit stills and “moonshining” are prevalent all over Alabama. fl The law says manufacture and sale of liquor in Alabama is unlawfid. fl Liquor is being made and sold illegally ell over the state. State officials them­ selves are at ihe head of this illegitimate industry. q Alabama residents did not want prohibition. It was thrust on them by leg­ islative enactment By legislators with axes to grind.

At last we have water, and more ot it than there is red lemonade at a county fair. Last Saturday morning, Jas. McGuire, the driller who is mak­ ing our water works wells, informed us that before noon he would have a flowing well, and he was as good as his word, for before ten o'clock the water bad filled the hole In which ho was drilling and began flowing over the top. The news was sent up town and in a few minutes about twenty per oent of the population of the vil­ lage were on the ground, congratulat­ ing thomclves that after so much worry and disappointment we were to have fine water and plenty of it, within easy distance of the pumping works. Tho flow was first struck at a depth of 247 feet, but as it strength­ ened with further drilling, work was continued until Wednesday noon, when a depth of 300 feet had been reach­ ed. The well is now fibwing at a rate of about ten thousand gallons per day, and if piped up will rise to a height of about fifteen feet about the ground, or several feet above the level bf Main street The water was There is one remedy that for many years has given relief from coughs, colds, croup and whooping cough.

But the price on the 5-passenger 3400 r.p.m. Chalmers re­ mains (for the time being) $1090 Detroit Until midnight of Nov. 30 you can get a 7-22 Chalmers for 81280 Detroit—a car of rare ability, fascinating in body equipment, and, like a beautiful woman, of exquisite charm. After that date the price becomes $1350 Detroit—$70 more. The $70 is just a few dollars less than the increase in cost of manufacture of this car since its appearance in June. / • To those who have longed for the 5-passenger 3400 r. p. m. Chalmers—and have not yet possessed one, just a word of warning: the price remains unchanged ipst now—$1090 Detroit; we do not know bow long this low price will continue. We reserve the right to increase the price without notice. Only those who are buying materials such as go into high-grade automobiles can begin to realize the steady, upward trend of the materials market. Just one condition today prevents a rise in price of the 5-passenger 3400 , p. m. Chalmers—the fact that these cars are being made on a factory “work rder” dating back several months. Since the “work order” went through materials have jumped in cost again. When the current “work order” is completed and if materials remain at their present level or rise higher, only one course will be possible, an increased price. Those who have been driving Chalmers cars know how diligent has been the Chalmers effort to set down cars of the quality kind. They will understand how impossible it would be for Chalmers to dodge the increase-in-materials issue and maintain the prevailing price on the 7-22 Chalmers. Lower the quality of the Chalmers car? Never. The Chalmers men take great pride, not only in the money the car makes for them, but in the car itself. And pride, as everyone knows, is a thing that can never be compromised. It would be like Tissot trying to paint a picture to fit a price. As long as there’s a name "Chalmers”, there will be a quality car, and as long as there’s a quality car there’ll be a price fixed—not by the Sales Department—but by cost accountants. And there’ll be a fair deal. Chalmers says these two 3400 r. m. models will be continued into next season. You can bank on that. So that a I car yon might buy now will be exactly like the one you would buy next spring. Remember the $70 you can save now by anticipating the rise in price. There’s an old Scotch proverb that says "A dollar saved is a dollar earned”. $70 buys a good suit of clothes, a good pair of shoes, a good hat and some good gloves. Also it just about pays your dues at the club for a year. Or, if it’s a 5-passenger 3400 r.p.m. Chalmers you want, our advice is to get one now. We are not sure the price is going up and we are not sure that it isn’t. J. B. MARSHALL Sales Agent for Barry County Phone! Office 33; Home 31 Nashville.

WWWy^(ir?r A Country Editor and Home Ru'0 Hi ' The country newspaper editor plays a greater part in the ' affairs of his community than does his b’--*’- — the metropoli( tan journal. | He lives close to his public and knows their inmost thoughts. I Through the mirror of his paper he reflects those tboMcrh*s, his I public’s stand on vital issues. j {T As their special attorney and champion he is continually | called upon to fight the good fight for this improvement or against I that danger. He is always boosting the home town and working ara j tirelessly for its betterment. His opinion carries weight. gw Read what such a champion and “home town booster,” BERT MORAN of the AU GRES ENTERPRISE, Arenac county, thinks of the Home Rule smaller option system. JT (Id a letter to the Michigan Heme Rule League.) H “I note that the newspapers are discussing your Home Rule project. considerable interest in it, and am frank to say it appeals to me. I have taken “Fdr example. Au Gres is a pretty little city, and we who live here have made it what it is. No other place has helped us—and we don’t need their assistance. We believe we can take care of our town—keep it law-abiding and make bad citizens better— or get rid of them. If the state will leave us alone on the liquor question we will come out all right. “At the last election a majority of Arenac county voters said we did not want county option and we defeated it. We came out flat-footed against the farce we were forced to undergo for two years. Our town individually had nothing to say on the subject. We might get a majority against county option, but the rest of the county might over­ whelm us with votes for it. “There are some great things to be accomplished by your Home Rule proposition. Every voter in the state should get acquainted with the possibilities to be derived from Home Rule.” i Ur 1 An unsolicited testimonial from a thinking, reflecting editor. who leads the thought of his community and works tirelessly for its betterment. jc ! ! I Bert Moran, as an editor, as a citizen, understands Home Rule. His analysis of it is accurate and keen. He sees where Home Rule would benefit Au Gres, solve Au Gres’ liquor problem. Au Gres citizens know what county option is. Bert Moran calls it “The farce we were forced to undergo for two years.” '_ Au Gres citizens themselves have made their town “what it is.” So with ome Rule they could settle their own problem, “without help from outside.” Au Gres* problem is different from that of any other section of Arenac county. But WITHOUT Home Rule Au Gres citizens have no voice in its solution. The rural districts do that for them. “The other places interfere” on a purely local question. C “Tbe other places” have not helped to make Au Gres “what it is.” ([ So also they should have no voice in its affairs. There are many Au Gres instances in the state. “The other places” decide eir liquor problems. They must abide by the “interference” from outside. They have not Home Rule. Nor have real representative government, true rule. ' • . I';/ . ■, <[ To paraphrase Bert Moran: “With Home Rule the state at large will leave them alone on the liquor question and they will come out all right.” <[ And Bert Moran again: “Every voter in the state should mt acquainted with the possibilities to be derived from Home Rule.” Write for literature.

Upon his return from the latest of these tramps Euchre suggested that they go down to the river to the boat­ landing. Nearly all the outlaws in camp were assembled on the river-bank, lolling In the shade of the cottonwoods. The heat was oppressive. Duane and Euchre joined the lazy group and sat down with them.

The origin of the phrads: “All my eye, Betty Martin" comes of mispro­ nunciation of the Latin “O mlhl, beats Martine,” which Is literally, **0 blessed Martin (help) me” and is found to several litanies of the middle ages. Now It Is slang for a lie. There are several such Latin phrases which have been degraded or transmuted.

London, Oct 14.—The Times pub­ lishes an interview given to its corre­ spondents with the Roumanian army by the king of Roemania. in which the monarch appeals to the,allies not to permit his" country to suffer tbe fate of Serbia and Belgium. •"The Roumanians will not falter," the king said, “In their allegiance to the cause, nor can the enemy wean them from their faith tn their allies.

While yet some distance from the cabin he heard loud, angry voices of men and woman. Bland and Kate still quarreling! He took a quick surnot even a Mexican to sight. Then be hurried a little. Halfway down the lane he turned his head to peer through the cottonwoods. This tlm* he saw Euchre coming with the horses. There was no Indication that the old outlaw might lose his nerve atthe end. Duane had feared this. Duane now changed bls walk to a leisurely saunter. He reached the porch and then distinguished what was said Inside the. eabln. “If you do, Bland, by Heaven I’ll fix you and her!" That was panted out In Kate Bland’s full voice. “Let me loose! Tm going-In there, I tell you F replied Blqnd, hoarsely. “No! no! I won’t let you. You'll choke the—truth out of her*—you’ll kill her.” I “The truth F hissed Bland. "Yes. I lied. But she lied to save me. You needn’t—murder her—for that" Bland cursed horribly. Then follow­ ed a wrestling sound of bodies In vio­ lent straining contact—the scrape of feet—the jangle of spurs—a crash of sliding table or chair, and then the cry of a woman In pain. Duane stepped Into the open door. Inside (he room. Kate Bland lay half across a table where she had been flung, and she was trying to get to her feet Bland’s back was turned. He had opened the door into Jennie’s room and had one foot across the threshold. Duane caught the girl’s low, shuddering cry. Then he called out loud and clear. With cat-like swiftness Bland wheel­ ed, then froze on the threshold. His sight, quick as his action, caught Duane’s menacing, unmistakable posi­ tion. Bland's big frame filled the door. He was in a bad place to reach for his gun. But he would not have time for a step. Duane read In bls eyes the desperate calculation of chances. For a fleeting instant Bland shifted his glance to his wife. Then his whois body seemed to vibrate with the swing of his arm. Duane shot him. He fell forward, his gun exploding as It hit into the floor, and dropped loose from stretch­ ing fingers. Duane stood over him, stooped to turn him on his 'back. Bland looked up with clouded then gasped his last “Duane, you've killed him?” cried Kate Bland, huskily. “I knew you’d have to!" She staggered against the wall, her eyes dilating, her strong hands clench­ ing. her face slowly whitening. She appeared shocked, half stunned, but showed no grief. “Jennie!” called Duane, sharply. "Come out. HurryF She came out with uneven steps, seeing only hln*. and she stumbled over Bland's body. Dunne caught her arm, swung her behind him. He feared the woman when she realized how she had been duped. His action was protec­ tive, and his movement toward the door equally as significant “Dunne!" cried Mrs. Bland. It was no time to talk. Dnane edged on. keeping Jennie behind him. At that moment there was a Doundlnx of Iron-shod hoofs out tn the lane. Kate Bland bounded to the door. When she turned back her amazement was changing to realization. “Where 're you taking Jen?” she cried, her voice like a man's. “Get out of my way.” replied Dunne. His look perhaps, without speech, was enough for her. In an instant she was transformed Into a fury. “You hound! All the time you were fooling me! - You made love to me! With an iron grasp Duane held to tho rlfle-barreL He had grasped It with his left hand, and he gave such a pull that be swung the crazed wo­ man off the floor. But he could not loose her grip. She was ns strong as "Katel Let goF* ' . He tried to intimidate her. She did not sec his gun thrust In her face, or reason had given way to such on extent to passion that she did not care. She cursed. Her husband had used the same curses, and from her lipa they seemed strange, unsexed, mor* deadly. Like a tigress she fought him; her face no longer resembled a Wo­ nsan’s. He heard a cry from outside—€ man’s cry, hoarse and alarming. It made him think of loss of time. This demon of a woman might yet block his plan. “Let go!” he whispered, and felt his lips stiff. In the grimness of that Instant he relaxed his hold on the rifle-barrel. With sudden, redoubled, irresistible strength she wrenched the rifle down and discharged It. Duane felt a blow —a shock—a burning agony tearing through his breast. Then In a frenzy he jerked qp powerfully upon the rifle that he threw the Woman against the waU. She fell and seemed stunned. Duane leaped back, whirled, flew out of the door on the porch. The sharp cracking of A gun halted him. He saw Jennie holding to the bridle of his bay horse. Euchre was astride the other, and be had a Colt leveled, and he was firing down the lane. Then came a single shot, heavier, and Euchre's ceased. He fell from the horse. A swift glance back showed to Duane a man coming down the lane. Chess Alloway! His gun was smoking. He broke into a run. Then in an Instant he saw Duane, and tried to chock his pace as he swung up his arm. But that slight pause was fatal. Duane shot, and Alloway was falling when bjs gun went off. His bullet whistled close to Duane and thudded Into the cabin. Duane bounded down to the horses. Jennie was trying to bold the plunging bay. Euchre lay flat on his back, dead, a bullet-hole In his shirt, his face set hard, and his hands twisted round gun and bridle. “Jennie, you’ve nerve, all right!" cried Duane, as he dragged down the horse she was holding. "Up with you now! There! Never mind—long stirrups! Hnng on somehow!” He caught his bridle out of Euchre’s ctatahlng grip and leaped astride. The frightened horses Jumped Into a run and thundered down the lane into the road. Dunne saw men running from cabins. He heard shouts. But there were no shots fired. Jennie seemed able to stay on her horse, but without stirrups she was thrown about so much that Duane rode closer and reached out to grasp her arm. Thus they rode through the valley to the trail that led up over the steep and broken Rim Rock. As they be­ gan to climb Duane looked back. No pursuers were In sight. "Jennie, we're going to get away!" he cried, exultation for her In his voice. She was gazing horror-stricken at his breast, as in turning to look back he facet! her. “Oh. Dnane. your shirt's all bloodyF she faltered, pointing with trembling fingers. With her words Dunne became aware of two things—the hand he In­ stinctively placed to his breast still held his gun. and he had been shot through the breast far enough down to give him grave apprehension of his life. . They did not stop climbing while Duane tore a scarf and made com­ presses. which he bound tightly over his wounds. The fresh horses made fast time up the rough trail. From open places Duane looked down. When they surmounted the steep ascent and stood on top of the Rim Rock, with no signs of pursuit down In the valley, and with tbe wild broken fastness before them. Duane turned to the girl and assured her that they now had every chance to escape. “But—your—wound !’’ she faltered, with dark, troubled eyes. "I see—the blood—dripping from your back!“ “Jennie, Til take a lot of killing," be said. Then he became silent and attended to the uneven trail. He was aware presently that he had not come Into Bland’s camp by this route. But that did not matter; any trail leading out beyond tbe Rim Rock was safe enough. What he wanted was to get for away into some wild retreat where he could hide till he recovered from his wound. Bo he turned off on a trail that ap­ peared seld.»m traveled. Soon after this move-be became con­ scious of a further thlckenlng of bls ■addle for a while longer, but be uas falling. Then he thought he ought to alone she would have some Idea of 'Kate, Let Qol" Ton’ll never leave here alive Give me that girl I Let me—get at her 1 She’ll never wm any more men in thia camp." “Help! help! Help!" she shrieked, in a voice that must have penetrated to cabin tn the valley. Suddenly she snatched s rifle off the wail and backed away, her strong shell Into the chamber and cocklna the weapon, Duane leaped upon her. He struck up tn • Utile hut of found himself mesquite bram ■nd evidently some years old. Duane Where was he, anyway? A strange. Intangible scum of time, distance, ol something far behind weighed upon him. He thought he heard a step and listened, but he felt tired, and present­ ly bls eyes closed and he fell into A doze. Awakening from this, he saw JennlS sitting beside him. In some way she seemed to have changed. When te spoke she gave a start and turned eagerly to him. "Duane F she cried. "Hello. How ’re you, Jexude, and bow,am IF he said, finding it a little difficult to talk. “Oh. I’m all right," she replied. “And you’ve come to—your wound’s healed; but you've been sick. Fever, I guess. I did all. I could." Dnane saw now that the difference to her was a whiteness and tightness “Fever? How Long Have We Been Harer of skin, a hollowness of eye, a look of strain. “Fever? How long have we been: here?" be asked. She took some pebbles from the. crown of his sombrero and counted them. "Nine. Nine days," she answ ered. “Nine days 1” be exclaimed. Incredu­ lously. But another look at her as­ sured him that she meant what she said. “Bland’s men didn't come along here?" “Have you slept any?" “A little. Lately I couldn't keep awake." "I should think noh You've had a time ot it sitting here day and night nursing me. watching for the outlaws. Come, tell me all about it.” “There’s nothing much to. tell." she replied, simply. “We must have rid­ den forty miles that day we got away. You bled all the time. Toward even­ ing yon lay on your horse's neck. When we came to this place you fell out of the saddle. I dragged you in here and stopjted your bleeding. I though you’d die that night.

INMATES BEAT AT BARS Section of Union Stockyards Swept by Blaze — Twenty Homes Perish— Building Used for Stock Shows Saved by Hard Work. Chicago, Oct. 17.—Hundreds of patienta were thrown Into excitement •hH beat oa the doors ... and or the bars nf of their windows to be liberated last night when fire broke out iq one of four barns at the rear of the buildings of the State Hospital for the Insane, formerly the Dunning Institution. The flames, which could be seen In the sky for miles, lighted up the dla.trict, and before firemen from the nearest engine company arrived had spread to the other banxs. All were destroyed. One of the bams was used for stabling cows and horses, and several of the animals were burned to death. Tbe other barns were used to store the product of the farm conducted in connection with the hospital. There were 3,577 patients, men nnd women, in the institution when the fire Started. They had finished supper only a short time before. There were 75 men In the farm ward, in a build­ ing detached from the main structure and situated about 800 feet from the bams. When the fire started many of the patients ran from the building, and with their coats beat out sparks that blew from the burning building. Others carried buckets of water to the farm ward building, where they kept the sides of the building wet The bams covered a block on the northwestern part of Jhe grounds. The loss was estimated nt $20,000. Big Fire at Stockyard*.

PROHIBITION DRUNKENN <T There is no mistaking the sombre chronicle that prohibition DOES NOT prohibit. . . £[ The experience of Michigan in its 22 years of prohibition ending 1875 is first proof of such failure. And of today are the experiences of Kansas, and of Maine, Georgia, Mississippi, Tennessee, and the others. £[ Everywhere liquor is sold in flagrant violation of law. Boot­ leggers, blind tigers, kitchen-bars abound. U Prohibition compels secret drinking, and it results in exces­ sive drinking. Prohibition emphasizes and intensifies drunken­ ness. It never cures. S THE STORY OF FAILURE ([ Compare the record of drunkenness in the “dry’ ’ states with those of the states under COMMON SENSE and regulation. Under License Detroit, 775,000 .........................

Detroit with 12 TIMES the population of Portland, Me., and with its large floating population, had only One-Half the arrests for drunkenness. Michigan with 47 TIMES Portland’s population had but twice as many arrests for drunkenness. {T In addition to arrests for drunkenness, “dry” Topeka had 302 arrests for bootlegging, and “dry’ ’ Wichita, 380. Both are in Kansas, where “Prohibition has been found to be workable.” “Dry” Bartlesville in “dry” Oklahoma is the “drunkenest” town in America. In 1915 it had one arrest for drunkenness to every 12 inhabitants. Augusta, Ga., and Bangor, Me., come next in order. £[ Milwaukee, Wis., made famous by its beer, has 350,000 population and 2,300 saloons. Its greatest record for drunkenness was in 1905. In that year there was 2,958 arrests, including “disorderlies.” The ratio was 1 to every 123 of population. Prohibition is the Enemy of Temperance (JT When your laws make it impossible for men to get light stimulants openly, they will get the violent drinks secretly, and you make drunkards of them. 4' Realize that education and self-control mean temperance. Realize that bigotry, intolerance, control of a majority by a minority, cause secret drunkenness, and never true temperance. Don’t promote drunkenness in Michigan. Promote true temperance.

LOAN ASSN., LANSING, MICHIGAN OR CALL ON W. A SPRINGBORG, NASHVILLE Shall I Vote WET or DRY? The fight for state wide prohibition is waxing warm and every Intelligent nad patriotic voter In Barry county must personally decide the above question on November 7th. What will your answer be, Mr. Voter? The whiskey bunch tells us that a dry Michigan would Increase the tax rate and lessen prosperity. This is only another flagrant Ho of the plunderbund, circulated to foul the unsophisticated voter, and to win support for the most damnable and destructive traffic that ever cursed the world with its crime and woe. THE SALOON AND POVERTY At a recent convention of the Michigan Association of Superin­ tendents of the Poor and Keepers of County Infirmaries, the follow­ ing resolution was unanimously adopted: “BELIEVING THAT A LARGE PART OF POVERTY IS CAUSED, EITHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, FROM INTOXICATING LIQUORS, WE, THE COUNTY SUPERINTENDENTS OF THE 1*0011 AND KEEPERS OF COUNTY INFIRMARIES, IN STATE CONVENTION ASSEMBLED, URGE THE VOT­ ERS OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN TO VOTE, AND TO USE THEIR INFLUENCE FOR STATE PROHIBITION OF THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC.” Does the above tell you anything, Mr. Voter? More than 80 per cent of the poverty in Michigan la caused by the liquor traffic. If you want to eliminate poverty In this state, cast your vote against the saloon, and help to answer the prayers of thousands of underfed women and children. Every vote in favor of the liquor traffic, Is a crime against humanity and God. THE SALOON AND INSANITY The Legislature of 1013 passed an act creating a commission to Investigate the extent and cause of feeble-mlndedness, epilepsy and insanity in Michigan, with the following results: 02 PER CENT OF THE INSANE WERE USERS OF AL­ COHOLIC LIQUORS. 34 PER CENT OF THE 809 BOYS IN THE LANSING INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL WERE USERS OF INTOXICATING BEVERAGES, 18 PER CENT HAD BEEN DRUNK ONE OB MORE TIMES. AND MORE THAN 52 PER CENT WERE SONS OF FATHERS AND MOTH­ ERS WHO DRANK. THE SALOON AND CRIME The following statement comes from Mr. Nathan F. Simpson, our State Prison Warden at Jackson: “WE FIND THAT 92 PER CENT OF THE MEN NOW CONFINED HERE, ADMIT USING LIQUOR TO SOME KTTENT. AND 75 PER CENT OF THEM ATTRIBUTE THEIR DOWNFALL DIRECTLY TO DRINK. OF THE MEN WHO VIOLATE THEIR PAROLES, APPROXIMATE­ LY 75 PER CENT DO SO BY FREQUENTING SALOONS. Mr. Otis Fuller, Warden of the Michigan Reformatory at Ionia, is authority for the following statements: “THERE WERE 634 PRISONERS RECEIVED AT THIS INSTITUTION DURING THE LAST BIENNIAL PERIOD. MORE THAN 00 PER CENT OF THIS NUMBER ADMIT­ TED THAT THE USE OF LIQUOR WAS THE DIRECT CAUSE OF THEIR CRIME. 75 PER CENT OF THOSE RETURNED FOR VIOLATION OF PAROLE. HAVE BEEN RETURNED BECAUSE OF EXCESSIVE DRUNKENNESS. OR BECAUSE OF CRIMES COMMITTED WHILE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF LIQUOR. FROM A PRISON STANDPOINT AND FROM A BUSINESS STANDPOINT. THERE IS NO DEFENSE FOR THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC." The annual report of the Detroit House of Correction says— “OF THE 8,809 INMATES. 07 PER CENT ADMIT THEMSELVES TO BE INTEMPERATE.” Mary C. Johnson, Superintendent of the Michigan Industrial Home for Girls at Adrian, is authority for the statement that 726 OF THE 1,276 GIRLS WHO WERE SENT TO THE INSTITUTION. WERE THE DAUGHTERS OF INTEMPERATE FATHERS OR MOTHERS. Now, Mr. Voter, what do you think of the statements of the above authorities on poverty, insanity and crime? You are helping to bear the extra burden ot taxation Imposed by the saloon. Would it not add to the prosperity of the state if poverty, insanity, and crime were lessened 75 or 90 per cent? Don't let the liquor gang fool you, Mr. Voter. Listen to the words of William McKinley, the martyred Presi­ dent: “THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC IS THE MOST DEGRADING AND RUINOUS OF ALL HUMAN PURSUITS^ BY LE­ GALIZING THIS TRAFFIC WE AGREE TO SHARE WITH THE LIQUOR SELLERS THE RESPONSIBILITIES AND EVILS OF HIS BUSINESS. EVERY* MAN WHO VOTES FOR LICENSE BECOMES OF NECESSITY A PARTNER TO THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC AND ALL ITS CONSE­ QUENCES.” Mr. Voter, don't sacrifice your convictions and manhood to vote for the continued reign of the saloon in Michigan, every man who votes to keep the liquor traffic tn existence 1* partly responsible for all the poverty. Insanity and crime created by it, In the sight of God. Mr. Farmer, the greatest share of the taxation burden is borne by you in this state, and you are forced to contribute most to the upkeep of our public Institutions for the poor, the criminal and in­ sane. Why vote to keep Detroit and other cities wet when they are making you spend your money to care for the thousands of depend­ ents upon public charity which their saloons create? Wake up, Mr. Farmer, and don't let the whiskey bunch make you the goat in their nefarious business. For every dollar paid Into the public treasury by the saloon, three dollars must be paid to punish the crime, and to care for the poverty and insanity created by the saloon. Drive the saloons out of Michigan, and two thirds or more of the money now expended to take care of the results of the saloon, can be used for legitimate and need­ ed public Improvements. Drive the saloons out of Michigan and our products will soon be in greater demand, contributing to the pros­ perity and advancement of every line of business and Industry. Thousands of families will be able to use better food and more of it, better furniture, better clothing, and better everything. The Intel­ ligent farmer, the progressive business men and manufacturers know this. It is the reason why they are working hard to make Michigan dry. Said the saluted and immortal Abraham Lincoln at Springfield in 1853: “THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC 18 A CANCER IN SOCIETY, EATING OUT ITS VITALS AND THREATENING DES­ TRUCTION, AND ALL ATTEMPTS TO REGULATE IT WILL NOT ONLY PROVE ABORTIVE, BUT AGGRAVATE THE EVIL. THERE MUST BE NO MORE ATTEMPTS TO REGULATE CANCER; IT MUST BE ERADICATED; FOR UNTIL THIS IS DONE, ALL CLASSES MUST CON­ TINUE EXPOSED TO BECOME THE VICTIMS OF STRONG DRINK. THE MOST EFFECTUAL REMEDY WOULD BE THE PASSAGE OF A LAW ALTOGETHER ABOLISHING THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC. LAW * MUST PROTECT AND CONSERVE RIGHT THINGS, AND PUN­ ISH WRONG THINGS, AND IF THERE IS ANY EVIL IN THE LAND THAT THREATENS SOCIETY OR INDIVID­ UALS MORE THAN ANOTHER, IT IS THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC.” Now, Mr. Voter, It you wish to contribute to the prosperity ot your state and ths good ot humanity, rote "YES" on the state wide prohibition amendmentTaad "NO" on the so called "home rule” amendment, on Normnber 7th. A vote tor the "home rule” trend will help to strengthen the rule ot the saloon orar the homes ot our state, and to create thousands ot paupers ud criminate, and depend­ ents upon public charity. IN THE NAME OF BLASTED MANHOOD AND BLIGHT­ ED WOMANHOOD, AND THE THOUSANDS WHO ARE BEING GROUND BENEATH THE SELFISH HEELS OF THE DAMNABLE LIQUOR TRAFFIC IN OUR FAIR STATE TODAY, AND THE STARVING AND PLUNDER­ ED CHILDHOOD OF MICHIGAN, MR. VOTER, MAWW UP YOUR MIND TO VOTE “YES” ON THE STATE PROHI­ BITION, AND “NO” ON THE “HOME RULE” AMEND­ MENT. Barry County Dry Campaign Committee �f .

In three days Duane was able with great difficulty to mount his horse. During daylight, by abort relay* he end Jennie rode back to the main trail, where they hid again till he had rested. Then in the dark they rode cut of the canyons and gullies of the Rim Rock, and early In the morning halted at the first water to camp. • From that point they traveled after nightfall and went into hiding during the day. Once across, the Nueces River, Duane was assured of safety tor her and great danger for himself. At last, far ahead over a barren mes­ quite-dotted stretch of dusty ground, he espied a patch of green and a little fiat, red ranch-house.- He-headed bls horse tor it and turned a face, he tried to make cheerful for Jennie’s sake. She seemdd both happy and sorry. •When near at hand he saw that the rancher was a thrifty farmer. And thrift spoke far honesty. There were fields of alfalfa, fruit-trees, corral* windmill pumps, irrigation-ditches, all surrounding a neat little adobe house. Borne ------children were playing In -----— ----------------- the . yard. Tbe way they ran at the sight | of Duane hinted to both the loneliness and the tear ot the<r taolated Uvea. Duane saw a woman come to the door, then a man. The latter looked keenly. then stepped outside. He was a sandyhaired, freckled Texan. -Howdy, stranger," he called, as Duane halted. “Get down, you an’ | your woman. Say. now, air you sick;। or shot or what? Let me—” Duane, reeling In his saddle, bent I, searching eyes upon the ranclier. He <, thought he saw good will, kindness, honesty. He risked all on that one sharp glance. Then he almost plunged ; from the saddle. । The rancher caught him, helped him to a bench. I “Martha, come out here!" he called. “This man's sick. No; he's shot, or I don’t know blood-stains." Jennie had slipped off her horic - nnd , to Duane's side. “ Duune appea about to faint “Air you his _wtfe?" asked the ! rancher. “No. Tm only a girl he saved from outlaws. Oh. he’s so pale! Duane, Duane 1" “Buck Dunne!" exclaimed the ranch­ er, excitedly. “The man who killed 1 Bland an' Alloway? Say, I owe him a good turn, an' HI pay ft young woman." The rancher's wife came out and with a manner at once kind and prac- i tlcal essayed to make Dunne drink . from a flask. He was not so far gone j that he could not recognize its con- •' tent* which he refused, and weakly asked — v ’ for water. When that was given him he found his voice. -Yes, I'm Duane. Tve only over­ done myself—Just all in. The wounds I got nt Bland’s are healing. Will you take this girl In—hide her awhile till the excitement's over .among the out­ laws?" “I shore will,’* replied the Texnn. “Young man you ain’t In any shape to travel. Til take you in nlong with the girl, an’ hide both of you till yon get well.” Dunne's Inst fading sensations of that hapl day were the strange feel of a be*!. n relief nt the removal of his .henvy boots, and of Jennie's'soft, cool luiudb on his hot face. He lay ill for three weeks before he began to mend, and It was another week then before he could walk out a little tn the dusk of the evenings. After that hl-< “nrength returned rapid­ ly. And It was only at tfte end of this long siege that he recovered his spirits. During moat of his Illness he had been silent, moody. , . “Jennie. I’ll be riding off soon." he said, one evening. *“I can’t Impose on this good man Andrews much longer. Hl never forget his kindness. His wife, too—she’s been so good to us. Yes, Jennie, you and I. will hfive to say good-by very soon.” ’ “Don’t hurry away," she replied. Lately Jennie had appeared strange to him. She had changed from the girl he used to see at Mrs! Biand's house He. took her reluctance to say good-by ns another Indication of her regret that-he must go back to the brakes. Yet somehow It made him observe her more closely. “It’s likely that we won’t nee each other again.” he said. "That’s strange to think of. We’ve been through some hard day* and I seem tp have known “Nobody from Bland’s outfit is hunt­ in’ you. thet’s shore," replied Andrew* “Fisher said there never was a boss straddled to go on your trait Nobody had any use for Bland. Anyhow, bls men would hs afraid to trail you. An* you could go right in to Huntsville, where you’d be some popular. Reckon you'd be safe, too, except where some of them fool saloon loafers or bad cowpunchers would try to shoot you for the glory In It Them kind of men win bob up everywhere you go, Duane.” “HI be able to ride and take care of Duane. “Then I’ll go—rd like to talk to you about Jennie." “She’s welcome to a home here with “Thank you. Andrews. You’re a kind men. But I want Jennie to get farther away from the Rio Grande. She’d never be safe here." “All right, Duane. Whatever you think best. I reckon now you'd better go north ’an’ strike for Shelbyville. Hl tell Jennie the names of men who.11 help her. You needn’t ride into town at all" At sunset two days later Duane end jennie mounted their gorses and said good-by to the rancher and his wife, Andmni „„„„ „„„ Daane., thnn1rw , ,e|] you rm ,o r„u he (jec]nre<i ........ “Well, what can I do for youF QBke(j cuane. -j may come niOng here again some day." “Get down an’ come In, then, or you’re no friend of nine. An’ good luck to you both!” Duane and Jennie trotted away into the gathering twilight The sky was overcast with heavy clouds; there was no air moving; the heat and oppression threatened storm. By and by Duane could riot see a rod In frdnt of him, though his horse had no difficulty in keeping to the road. To his an­ noyance, however, a fine, misty rain set In. Jennie was not well dressed for wet weather; and. for that matter, neither whs he. His coat, which In that dry warm climate he seldom needed, was tied behind his saddle, and he put It on Jennie. The night passed quickly despite the discomfort, and soon a gray, dismal, rainy dnwn greeted the travelers. Jennie Insisted that he find some shelter where a fire could be built to dry his clothbs. He'was not in a fl) condition to risk catching cold. In fact, Duane's teeth were chattering. To find a shelter In that barren waste seemed a futile task. Quite unex­ pectedly, however, they happened upon a deserted adobe cabin situated a little w b off the road. Not VU only did it prove t0 jjave B <]ry interior, but also there firewood. Water was available in pools everywhere; however, there was no grass for the horses. A good fire and hot food and drink changed the aspect of their condition as far aa comfort went. Jennie slept while Duane watched. The saving of this girl meant more to him than any task be had ever as­ sumed. As he looked down upon ‘ her, a slight, slender girl with bedraggled dress and disheveled hair, her fac^, pale and quiet, a little stem in sleep, and her long, dark lashes lying on her cheek, he seemed to see her fragility, her prettlness, her femininity as never before. But for him she might at that very moment have been a broken, ruined girl lying back In that cabin of the Bland* The fact gave him a feel­ ing of hl* Importance In this shifting of her destiny. She was unharmed, still young; she would forget and be happy; she would live to be a good wife and mother. Somehow the thought swelled his heart. His act, death-dealing as it had been, was a delight, because About the middle of the afternoon Jennie awoke. They cooked a meal and afterward sat beside the little fire. Sometimes when her eyes were on him she did not seem to bo think­ ing of her freedom, of her future. “This time to-morrow you’ll be In Shelbyville," he said. “Where will you be?” she asked, quickly.’ • . “Me? Oh, I'll be making tracks for some lonesome place,” he replied. The girl shuddered. •Tve been brought up in Texas. I remember what a- hard lot the men of my family had. But poor as they were, they had a roof over their head* a hearth with a fire, n warm bed­ somebody to love them. And yon, Duane—oh. my God! What must your Ufr be? You must ride and hide and watch eternally." She ended with a sob'and dropped her head on her knees. Duane was amazed, deeply touched. “My girl, thank you for that thought of me.” he said, with a tremor in his voice. “You don’t know how much that means to me." She raised her face, and it was tearstained, eloquent, beautiful. -Tve heard tell—the best of men go to the bad out there. You won’t Promise me you won’t I never— knew any man—like you. t I—I—we may never see each other again—after to-day. Pll never forget you.

One had but to glance at his shambling gait, baggy trousers and fringed collar to realize that But aftpr the first casual glance, -if one care to go fur­ ther, he might discover that In spite of neglect In grooming Hodge bad, or once possessed. all the essentials of a gentleman. Hodge and Lily Sears were to have been married. It was understood, be­ cause It was the natural thing to do. They were the two “best fixed” fami­ lies in tbe community and their pa­ rents arranged the matter. But nothing came of IL Sears’ whip factory burned and the bank failed with tho Perllss money. 'The Searses moved away and Hodge’s father died. The years rolled o» and after his mother died Hodge was left alone on the farm. . Time continued to roll along. Hodge shaved less and slouched more. When he was thffty-elght he looked fifty. A neat little red roadster stopped at Hodge's gate one day and a woman got out The woman was a stranger, neither fat nor thin nor beautiful. But she was lithe and well built and dressed with a simplicity that smacked of tailors, good taste and expense. And, moreover, she had something In her face more wonderful than beauty. “No," after her inquiry, “I guess I'm not so awful busy. Come up and sit down,” nodding toward a porch. “Tve come on business," she said. HI frankly confess that I’m "»n agent I want to sell you something." Hodge shuffled his feet uneasily and fingered the hat on his lap. “I don’t know as I need anything," he said “Oh, yes, you do I Tm going to con­ vince you of that I have a little plan I hope you’ll approve of and It won’t take your time, either. Let me go ovei your house while you're working and find out what you need. Let me see I" She looked at a wrist watch. “It’s half past ten. I can be done and have your dinner ready by twelve. Do you mind if I cook your dinner?" Hodge's jaw dropped. -Well, I gaess—I don't care. You’ll find things sort of unhandy, I suppose, and most of the kettles leak, but Hl pump some water and kindle up the fire.” Hodge led the way into the house, and going on back to the kitchen, he nodded toward tho sitting room. -You can take your things off in there. Maybe it's a bit dusty, rm not much on denning.” A faded photograph of a very young 34132350088556440417196693 She picked it up and looked at It a long time. “Poor little Lily I" she breathed.

Stick out your exile—and maybe— Then she lost her voice. Duane clasped her hand and with feeling as deep us hers promised to remember her words. In her despair for him she had spoken wisdom—pointed out the only course. Duane's vigilance, momentarily broken by emotion, had no sooner re­ asserted Itself than he discovered the bay horse, the one Jennie rode, had broken his halter and gone off. Tbe soft wet earth had deadened the sound of his hoofs. Ills tracks were plain in the mud. Duane did not want to leave Jennie alone In the cabin so near the road. So he put her on bls horse and bnde her follow. The ruin had ceased for the time being, though evidently the storm was not yet over. The tracks led up a wash tp a wide flat where mesquite, prickly pear, and thorn-bush grew so thickly that Jennie coufd not ride Into it. He could not expect her to scramble quickly through that brake on foot. Therefore he decided to risk leaving her at the edge of tbe thicket and go In alone. As he went In a sound startled him. Was It the breaking of a branch he delightfully good; —it can’t bite your tongue; —it can’t parch your throat; went Inside. The odors, long strange to his bachelor nose, made him raven­ ously hungry. Hodge straightened. Tbe smell of good cooking, a woman In the house, a table with a white cover and flowers —he could see through the dining room door—brought a cufrent of thoughts Into action that bad been stagnant for years. Here was a situ­ ation for UUUU AUl SSSIU him to uu UVL act the VMC gentleman. V. u UC ***<Td—I’d better change my clothes!" he said. He came down. There were baggy knees and a fringed collar, to be sure, but Hodge no longer slouched. There was a snap in his eye and his bead was up. Such a meal 1 And such a woman I “Now, Mr. Perllss." said the latter, after a dessert of fluffy pudding that had melted down his throat “I am going to surprise you when I tell you the things you need.

When I was a lad, 1 used to hear the expression more frequently than 1 do now, that a certain man "playing second Addle,"' or that be "would not play second fiddle tor any man." or something of that sort. Playing second fiddle is a curio as expression. Last night I attended a beautiful concert of our symphony or­ chestra. At the conductor’s left hand, sista the first violinist Grouped beside and behind him are the rest of the first violins. On the other side of the conductor sit the second violinists. There wore Just about as many of them, and they were called upon to play what seemed to be just as diffi­ cult music. There were times when the first violins were not playing at all. and the melody was being carried by the second violins, at other times, the seconds were playing In unison with the firsts: at still other times, they were carrying their own part, । without which ths first violins would ' not have sounded like much. [ And Is not that like life? People I that we call second fiddlers are part | of the orchestra that makes life's , music. The more prominent people are helpless without them: there are: times when they carry the real mo-• lody.

Had it been the old struggling Talcott that Lad thus come across this gentle crcatore, his heart would have been wholly lost- Asjt was. the lure of "the only Mfe," the fascination of the siren-like Beatrice Winston held him in a bal­ ance, swaying variously. He had finished up his business at Rushton and had arranged to leave the next day. During his stay he had been given a room back of the hotel office, provided with a desk and chairs, for the convenience of those who had dealings with the estate. He had just finished writing a letter as there came a timid knock at the door. It stood partly open and framed a vision of grace and loveliness that brought him instantly to his feet “Miss Deane!" ho exclaimed, his face alight with genuine pleasure. “May I intrude?" she spoke in a pleasant but half-embarrassed way, as she glanced about the apartment and found it untenanted except for them­ selves. “You are very welcome.** he an­ swered heartily, and drew up the best chair in the room for her and saw her seated.

"I will deed the old Ransom homestead to your society as a home for your proteges. I find it difficult to sell It and I wish to get ft off my hands." The generous donation of the goodhearted Talcott was the talk, of the town> His own interest in the humani­ tarian plan was awakened. He might have lingered, but a telegram from the dty. Inspired by the scheming •Iren who had set her wiles to snare him, lured him again Into the vortex of “the only life.” • The seed of charity planted by the little charity circle at Rushton grew and throve. The life of-tpe spendthrift began and expanded for Lysle Talcott. For five years he was led blindly, recklessly, cn by the ambitious siren who had won him as her husband. Like cormorants her retinue of rela­ tives fawned , upon the lavish benefac­ tor, who in his honest open way never suspected their selfish duplicity. A creature of expensive whim, his wife led him from one extravagance to another. There was a palatial city home and a country palace. There were trips abroad, social functions al­ most rivaling royalty. Ope baleful day a terrible piece of news was brought to Talcott His wife, her sis­ ter and a brother had perished in a fire at sea. When the first shpek was partly subdued, he went to seek her surviving brother.' To this man he had entrusted all his business on ac­ count of relationship. A second shock faced him. A spec­ ulator and a coward, his brether-inlaw had lost his entire fortune in a swindling stock concern and had fled the country. Lysle Talcott was a pauper. He was crushed. It was only by voluntarily surrendering all he had that he was able to escape the stigma of dishonor. His health broke. Life had become unambitious. He faced the future, a dumb despair at his souL Just one piece of wreckage was saved from the collapse. When he had inherited a fortune he had deeded to an old servant of his uncle a little farm near Rushton. Just as the affairs of the collapse were.wound up, the death of his pensioner was followed by the announcement that the prop­ erty had been willed back to his bene­ ficiary. • Talcott evaded the townspeople when he reached Rushton late in the afternoon. It was dark as he returned from an Inspection of the little old farm. He felt more hopeful now, how­ ever, for it promised him a comfort­ able home and a living. Curiosity led him towards a building surrounded by a stone wall and aglow with light. It was the old homestead—but how grandly extended and remodeled! There were lights over its gateway. Ho had not thought nf h<« random gift for over five years, though often of Mabel. He drew nearer to read the inscription on a brass plate on one of the gate pillars. It read, “Lysle Worthington Talcott—blessed of all men. He builded better than he knew." A woman passing by halted, gazed at him, advanced, drew back and he TQbridge, crocheting. “A little warm for »o early in ths year,” he remarked, pleasantly. It seemed that although these two had been neighbors for years they never got past the conventional subject < the weather or how much better tha lilacs were doing thia year than last. ; he spoke trema* lonely. Her face lit up as if by magic. Hex soulful gladness affected him as some rare perfume. Hp must come to see her father. It was at the Deane home that Talcott learned of the venture he had practically started, developed by Mabel and her charitable assistants until it had become a noted philan­ thropic work. Those days his heart t6ok hope. Those hours, when Mabel, reading aright his gloom as well as his awak­ ened regard for her. mlnistrated to bis wounded soul and brought to it peace ’ Made a Mistake.

I'll take over a plate of It” So, rolling up the work, she went back to the kitchen. Then, before thinking of her own lunch, she fixed up the professor's treat, covered it with a napkin and took it over the back way. The clothesline waa di­ rectly across her path and she had to dodge various articles ot wearing ap­ parel as she went [ Suddenly her sharp eyes made a discovery—a hole rigittln the breast of one of the professor's fine white shirts. The housekeeper had com­ plained to her at one time about his. propensity for spilling acids upon him­ self In the laboratory and what a time she had with his mending. Martha ate her lunch and the pro fessor went bock to school. The street quieted down aryl Martha prepared for a nap. Then, remembering a waist that was minus a button, she got out her sewing basket Then It Just happened that she looked out of the window In time to see the girl in the next house lock the door and go out Instantly her thoughts reverted to the shirt. Tire clothes though dry, were still on the line, and here was she with thread and needle all ready. No second thought was necessary. She ran downstairs, through the kitchen door, around the lilac bush and had the shirt in her arms In no time. Then Indoors again with her precious bur­ den. « So x she patched the shirt with stitches so fine and so neat that It would take sharp eyes Indeed to de­ tect the situation. But who was that Just turning the comer? The professor himself com­ ing home early I In a panic, she picked up her mending and tore down­ stairs to the yard. She managed to get the clothespins back to place, al­ though her fingers trembled dreadful­ ly and she was shaking with fright. Then! She went upstairs—and found the professor’s shirt, lying on her bed! Her eyes widened with horror. What had she done? Weakly she got to the back room window, and there, swinging In the lazy afternoon breeze, was her waist on the professor’s clothesline. Sbe almost fainted with dismay. There was nothing to do but wait And waiting only brought Increased dismay, for the maid returned and gathered In the clothes, with her waist among them. Get the waist she must—someway. So that evening, when the dishes were done and “the street" was sitting out in front, she saw the professor go out with some books under his arm, and, later, Hattie, In flaunting pink, de­ parted with a beau for a movie. The house next door was dark and de­ serted. Finally she roused herself with an effort, and tiptoed across the back lawns to the other house. A window opened onto the porch and nothing stood between her and the coveted Interior but a rickety screen. She pushed and It gave. She was toon inside the black kitchen groping for the laundry basket ' Then her hand touched It I Thank heaven, and right on top was her waist She could tell it by the lace collar sbe had made herself. The shirt was quickly substituted for It and she was retreating when a light was switched on suddenly and the professor stood In the dining room door! Martha looked at him an instant with wide-open eyes, and then prompt­ ly and quietly fainted. She revived almost immediately and saw the agitated professor beudiug over her.

NASHVILLE AUTO COMPANY Nashville, Mich Phone No. 127 �A hundred miles from the haunts most familiar with Duaneis deeds, far up where the Nueces ran a trickling clear stream • between yellow cliffs, stood a small deserted shack of covers ed mesqufte poles. It had been made long ago, but was well preserved. A door faced the overgrown trail, and another faced dowff.lnto a gorge of dense thickets. On the border fugi­ tives from law and men who hid in fear of someone they had wronged never lived in houses with only one door. It was a wild spoL. lonely, not fit for human habitation except for the outcast. \ . On clear days—nnd rare Indeed were cloudy days—with the subsiding of the wind at sunset a hush seemed to .fall around the little huL Far-distant dimblue mountains stood gold-yimmed gradually to fade with the shading of light. At this quiet hour a man climbed up out of the gorge and sat In the westward door of the huL This lonely watcher of the west and listener to tbe alienee was Duane. And this hut was the one where, three years before, Jennie had nursed him back to life. The killing of a man named Sellers, and the combination of circumstances that had made the tragedy a memor­ able regret, had marked, if not a change, at least a cessation in Duane’s activities. He bad trailed Sellers to kill him for the supposed abducting of Jennie. Vague rumors, a few words here and there, unauthentlcnted stor­ ies were all that Duane had gathered la years to substantiate his belief— that Jennie died shortly after the be­ ginning of her second captivity. Sellers might have told him. Dunne expected, if not to force it from him at the end, to read it in his eyes. But the bullet went too .unerringly; it locked his lips and fixed his eyes. After that meeting Dunne lay long at the ranch-house of n friend, and when he recovered from the wound Sellers had given him he started with two horses and a pack for the lonely gorge on the Nueces. There he had been hidden for months, a prey to re­ morse, a dreamer, a victim of phantoms. , Itidook work for him to find sub­ sistence In that rocky fastness. And work, action, helped to pass the hours. But he could not work all the time, even if he had found it to do. Then in his Idle moments and at night his task was to live with the hell in Ids mind. The sunset and the twilight hour made all the rest bearable. The little but on the rim of the gorge seemed to hold Jennie’s presence. It was not as If be felt her spirit If it had been he would have been sure of her death. He- hoped Jennie had not survived her second misfortune; and that Intense hope had burned, into belief. If not surety. A strange feature of this memory of Jennie was the freshness of it—the failure of years, toll, strife, death­ dealing Jo dim it—to deaden the thought of what might have l»een. He had a marvelous gift of vlsualizjitlon. He could shut bls eyes and see Jennie before him Just os clearly as if she had stood, there in 'the flesh. For white-haired mother. He saw tbe old home-life, sweetened and filled by dear new faces' and added joys, go on be­ fore his eyes -with him a part of IL Then In the Inevitable reaction, in the reflux of bitter reality, he would send out a voiceless cry no less poignant because it was silent: “Poor fool! No, I shall never see mother again—never go home—never have a home. I am Duane, the Lone Wolfr A group of specters troojfcd out of the shadows of dusk and. gathering round him, escorted him to bls bed. Every one of his victims, singly and collectively, returned to him for ever, it seemed, in cold, passionless, accus­ ing domination. They did not accuse him of dishonor or cowardice or brutal­ ity or murder ; they only accused him of death. It was as if they knew more than when they were alive, had learn­ ed that- life was a divine mysterious gift not to be taken. They thronged about him with their .voiceless clamor­ ing, drifted around him with their fading eyes. After nearly six months in the Nueces gorge the loneliness "and Inac­ tion of Ids life drove Duane out upon the trails seeking anything rather than to hide longer aioner-a prey to the scourge of his thoughts. The mo* ment he rode Into sight of men a re­ markable transformation occurred in him. A strange warmth stirred in him —a longing to see the faces of people, to hear their voices—a pleasurable emotion sad^'and strange. But It was only a precursor of his old bitter, sleepless, and eternal vigilance. Mercer was the first village he rode Into. He had many friends there. Mercer claimed to owe Dunne a debt On the outskirts'of the village there was a grave overgrown by brush so that the rude-lettered post which marked it was scarcely visible to Duane ak he rode by. He had never read the inscription. But be thought now of Hardin. For many years Hard­ in had harassed the stockmen and ranchers in and around Mercer. On an evil day for him he or his outlaws had beaten and robbed a man who once succored Duane when sore in need, Duane met Hardin in the little plaza of the village, called him every known to border men. taunted Idin to draw, and killed him in the act Duane went to the house of one Jones, a Texan who had known his fitter, and there he was warmly re­ ceived. The feel of an honest hand, the voice of a fgend. the prattle of children who were not afraid of him or bis gun, good wholesome food, nnd change of clothes—these things for the time being made a changed man of Duane. To be sure, he did not often speak. The price of bls head nnd the weight of his burden made him silent. But eagerly he'drank in all the news thdt was told him. In the years of ids absence from home he had never heard a word about his mother or uncle. Those who were bis real friends on the bonier would have been the lam to make Inquiries, to write or receive letters that might give a clue to Duane's whereabouts. k Dunne remained all day with tide hospitable Jone*, nnd as twilight fell was loath to go nnd yielded to a press­ ing Invitation to remain overnight. It was seldom Indeed J hat Duane alept under a roof. FJarly in the evening, while Dunne sot on the porch with two owed and hero-worshiping sons of the house, Jones returned from a quick visit dowh to the postofllce. Summar­ ily he sent the boys off. He labored under intense excitement “Duane, then?s rangers in town," he whispered. “H’s all over town, too, that you're here. You rode in long after sunup. Lota of people saw you. 1 'don’t believe there's a mon or boy that ’d squeal on you.

The stranger jieered around, stealth­ ily came closer, still with his hands up. “It is known that Buck Duane is here. Captain MacNelly’s camping on the river just out of town.

During the next few days he paid brief visits to several villages that lay tn his path And In each some particular friend had a piece of news to Impart that made Duane profoundly thoughtful. A ranger had made a quiet, unobtrusive call upon these friends and left tills message, “Tell. Buck Duane to ride Into Captain MacNelly’s camp some time after night." Duane concluded, and his friends all agreed with him, that the new ranger’s main purpose tn the Nueces country was to capture or kill Buck Duane, and that this message was simply an original and striking ruse, the daring of which might appeal to certain out- THIS AMENDMENT will be printed in FULL on the Ballot Remember it is known as an amendment to Article XII, Sec.

Citizens When a breeze fluttered the foliage, then slender shafts and spears of sun­ shine pierced the green mantle and ■ danced like gold on the ground. Duane had always felt the strangeness of 'this kind of place, and likewise he had felt a protecting, harbor- . ing somethin;; which always seemed to | him to be the sympathy of the brake for a hunted creature. Any unwound­ ed creature, strong and resourceful, was safe when he had gilded under the low, -rustling green roof of tills wild covert Duane wanted to cross the river If that was possible, and, keeping in the brake, work his way upstream till he had reached country more hospit­ able. He pushed on. His left arm had to be favored, as he could scarcely move it Using his right to spread the willows, he slipped sideways be­ tween them ant! made fast time. Finally after a toilsome penetration of still denser brush he broke through to the bank of the river. He faced a wide, shallow, muddy stream with brakes on the opposite bank extending like a green and yellow wait Duane perceived at a glance the futility of his trying to cross at this point. Everywhere the sluggish water laved quicksand bars. Before leaving the bank he tied his hat upon a pole and lifted enough water toi quench hia thirst. Then he worked his way back to where thinner growth made advancement easier, and kept on upstream till the shadows were so deep he could not see. Feeling ground for a place big enough to stretch out on, he lay down. For the time being be was as safe there as he would have been beyond in the Rim Rock. He was tired, though not exhausted, and In spite of the throbbing pain Ln his arm he dropped at once lute sleep. CHAPTER XIII. 1 abort. W. C. WlHJtts. P. a Morgan. Mich.

Like a “boost” from the boss when you’re anxious—they satisfy! How long Duane was traveling out of that region he never knew. But he reached famillur country and found a rancher who had before befriended him. Here his anr was attended to; When the time came for Duane to friend reluctantly imparted the in- believe that he had harmed a woman. A dark, pasalonnte fury possessed him. It shook him like a storm shakes the oak. When It passed, leaving him cold, with clouded brow and piercing eye, him mlud was set. ^purring his horse, he rode straight toward the village.

The ’some ..... - •railroad — tnuiu irireci wa» wide, bufdeied mala street wa. bordered by trees ami commodious houses, and many of the stores were of brick. A large pluza shaded by giant cotton­ wood occupied a central location^. Dunne pulled his running horse and halted him, plunging and snorting, be­ fore a group of Idle men who lounged on, benches in the.shade of a spread­ ing cottonwood. How many times had Dunne seen just that kind of lazy shirt-sleeved Texas group 1 Not often, however, had he seen such placid, lolling, good-natured men change their, expression, their attitude so ' swiftly. His advent apparently was momentous. They evidently took hlrti for an un­ wrap! visitor. So far us Duane could tell, not one of them recognized him, had a hint of his identity. He slid off his horse and threw the bridle. “I'm Buck Duane," be said. “I saw that placard—out there on a sign-post It’s a damn lie! Somebody find this man Jeff Aiken; I want to see him." His announcement was taken in ab­ solute silence. That was tbe only effect he Doted, for he avoided looking at these villagers. The reason was simple enough; Duane felt himself overcome with emotion. There were tears in his eyes. He sat down on a bench, put his elbows on his knees and his hands to his face. For once he had absolutely no concern far his fate. This Ignominy was the last straw. Presently, however, he became aware of some kind of commotion among these villagers.' He heard whispering, low, hoarse voices, then tbe shuffle of rapid feet moving away.

Economically In these days of high prices it is necessary for a majority of people at least to practice economy in purchasing their clothing and furnishings, but nothing is more extravagant or wasteful than to spend your good money for cheap, shoddy clothing, even at any price. Poor, unreliable clothing can be made to look as good as any, when hanging in the store, but a few days’ wear will bring out the defects, and the purchaser invaria­ bly regrets his investment Wouldn’t it be economy for you to buy where you know you will get full value for your money and where every article sold is backed by an iron­ clad guarantee to give absolute satisfaction? . We have an unusually complete stock of clothing and furnishings this fall—everything needed for the man or boy—and our prices are the lowest you will find anywhere for good, dependable goods. You’ll always come out ahead when you buy at our store. It makes no difference whether you are a customer or not, whether you are ready to buy or not, we extend you a hearty invitation to call in and examine our goods and look over the new styles for winter.

Appalled by the tragedy, many of the 750,000 spectators gave oo heed when announcement was made that although Johnny Aitken, driving a Peugeot car, had crossed the finish line a winner, the laurels do not .go to him, but to Howard Wilcox, his teammate.

Allies are RETREAT 'Steam Roller* Threat­ ens Craiova,, Capital of Western Wallachia—Russian War O1 ports Successes <a Region of London, Nov. 2L—General von rukenhayn's “steam roller,” sweeping through northwestern Eoumanla, made further Important headway during tht last 24 hours, according to the state­ ment by the Berlin war office. In the essential point it is corroborated by Petrograd: "lb the valley of the Jiul,” said the czar’s war office, “the Roumanians, un­ der pressure, continue to retire to the southward.*' "Our troops,” Berlin reported, “are approaching Craolva, capital of the western Wallachia.'' It is for the possession of this city that the furious battles of the last few weeks have been fought in the Jlul valley. For the drive against It the Teuton commander has received re-enforcements which were denied the crown prince at Verdun. Important Rail Base. Craiova, situated a little east of the Jlld river, is the unost important strategic railway interaectlon in west­ ern Roumanlo. It lies 115 miles west of Bucharest It is the junction of~ four railroads. Only 40 miles to the south from Craiova lies Rahova, on tlie Danube. Pushing southward. to the river, Fulkenhnyn would establish a straight line through western Roumunia from Vulkan pass to Rahova. With the north bank of the river cleared the Teutons could effect a junc­ tion between Falkenhayn's and Mackensen’s army. The capture of Craiova and the Teuton control of the railway com­ munications would threaten the Rou­ manian armies in the Transylvanian Alps with being cut off from nil con­ nection with Ute Interior of their coun­ try, and with a flanking attack on a large scale from the south and east. Situation Called Serious. Such Is the outlook of the Rou­ manian situation as revealed by offi­ cial reports from both sides—an out­ look which military critics here admit­ ted to be even more ominous than had been looked tor. Berlin stated that in the area north­ west of Campulung “the Roumanians are exhausting their units, which are of mixed and haphazard formation, in fruitless attacks.” The Russian war office reported local successes for (lie Roumanians in the region of Aldesht, where 100 Teu­ Alt district, where Austro-Gernmn at- A full Artillery activity un the Danube and free, non-grlplng bowel movement In [the morning Is the reward of a dose In the Dubrudja Is constantly Increas­ iof Dr King's New Life Pills the ing.

When Duane got heyond the line of mesquite, which had hid a good view of the camp site, he saw n group of perhaps fifteen rangers sitting •round the fires, near a long, low shed where horses were feeding, and a small adobe house at one side. “We’ve just had grub, but Til see you get some. Then we’ll talk.” said MacNelly. “I’ve taken up temporary quarters here. Have a rust’ »r job on hand. Now, when you’ve eaten, come right Into the house." Duane wns hungry, but he hurried through the ample supper that was set before him. urged on by curiosity and astonishment. While eating he had bent keen cye« around him. After a first quiet scrutiny the rangers ap­ parently paid no' more attention to him. They were all veterans In serv­ ice—Dunne saw that—and rugged, powerful men of iron constitution. Despite a general conversation of campfire nature. Dunne was not decelved about the fact that his advent •had been nn unusual and striking one, which hnd caused an undercurrent of conjecture and even consternation among them.

"Come in and Lave a chair," said MacNelly, motioning for the one other occupant of the room to rise. “Leave as, Russell, and close the door. Hl I be through these reports right off.” i MacNelly sat at a table upon which was a lamp and various papers. Seen In the light he was a fine-looking, soldierly man of about forty years, dark-haired and dark-eyed, with a bronzed face, shrew d, stern. . trong. yet not wanting In kindliness. He scanned hastily over some papers, fussed with them, and finally put them ta enve­ lopes. Settling back In his chair, be faced Duane, making a vain attempt to hide what must have been the ful­ filment Of a long-nourished curiosity. "Duane, I’ve been hoping for this for two years," he began. Duane smiled a little—a smile that felt strange on his face. He had never been much of a talker. And speech here seemed more than ordinarily diffi­ cult MacNelly must have felt that He looked’ long and earnestly at Duane, and his quick, nervous manner changed to grave thoughtfulness. “Ever bear from home since you left Wellston Y' lie asked, abruptly. “No," replied Duane, sadly.

I’ve been a long tlnfe getting to you. But the nature of my Job, as far ns you're . concerned, made me cuutlous. Dunne, ! you’re nware of the hnrd name you । bear all,over the Southwest?" j “Once ta a while I’m Jarred Into . realizing." replied Dunne. . “It’s the hardest, barring Murrell j nnd Cheseldlne, on the Texas lx>rder. । But there’s this difference. Mu-rel! ' In his day was known to deserve his i infamous name, Cheseldlne In his day also. But I’ve found hundreds of men ; In southwest Texas who’re your friends, who swear you never com­ j mltted n crime. The farther south I get tiie clearer this becomes. What I ' want to know is the truth. Have you evqr done anything criminal? Tell me I tiie truth. Dunne. It won't make any difference In my plan. And when I any crime I mean what I would cal! crime, or any reasonable Texan." "That way my bands are clean,” re­ piled Duane. ! “You never held up a man. robbed a store for grub, stole a horse when ' you needed him bad—never anything like thatr “Somehow 1 always kept out of thaL Just when pressed the hardest" “Dunne, I'm glad I" MacNelly ex­ claimed, gripping Duane’s band. “Glad for your mother's sake! BuL all the . same, in spite of this, you are a Texas outlaw accountable to the state. You're perfectly aware that under ex­ isting circumstances. If you fell Into the hands of the law, you'd probably hang, at least go to jail for a long term." That’s what kept me on the dodge all these years,” replied Duane. “Certainly." MacNelly** eyes nar­ rowed and glittered. The muscles along his brown cheeks set hard and tense. He leaned close to Dunne, laid sinewy, pressing fingers noon Duane's knee. “Listen to this," he whispered, hoarsely. “If I place a pardon In your hand—make you a free, honest citizen once more, clear your name of Infamy, make your mother, yonr sister proud of you—will you swear yourself to n service, any service I demand you?"

He had the look of a man who had Justly won some­ thing at considerable ebst Ills next move wus to take a long leather case from his pocket nnd extract frpm It several folded papers. “Here’s your pardon from the Gover­ nor,” he said, quietly. "You’ll see, when you look It over, that it's condi­ tional. When you sign thia paper I have here the condition will be meL" He smoothed out the paper, handed Duane n pen, ran his forefinger along a dotted line. Duane's hand was shaky. Years had passed since he hnd held a pen. It was with difficulty that he achieved Ids signature. Buckley Duane—bow strange the name looked! “Right here ends the career of Buck Duane, outlaw and gun-fighter,” said MacNelly; and. seating himself, ha took the pen from Duane’s fingers nnd wrote several lines in several places upon the paper.

He entered Michigan Busi­ ness and Normal school at Battle Creek Oct. 20, 1913, where by faith­ ful attention to his studies he reach­ ed the ambition he sought.

He worked here until the college secured him a more lucrative position at Jackson, and about August 1, 1910 went on a vacation to Restoule, Ontario, where he was accidentally drowned while skating. Claude made many friends wherever he went and by his easy, honest, frank manhood enjoy­ ed the respect of all who became ac­ quainted with him.

The statement will be u severe blow to the financiers who were planning to float these loans in the United States. Formal Warning Given. . The statement aays in part; “In view of contradictory notes which have appeared in the press re­ garding its attitude toward the pur­ chasing by bunks in this country of treasury bills of foreign governments, the board deems It a duty to deflue Its position dearly. “In making this statement the board desires to disclaim any intention of discussing the finances or of reflecting upon tbe financial stability of any na­ tion. "The board does not share the view that further importations of gold must prove a source of danger or disturb­ ance to this country. That danger, the board believes, will arise only in case the inflowtug gold should be permitted to become the bests of undesirable lonn expansions and inflation. There are means, however, of controlling ac­ cessions of gold by proper nnd volun­ tary co-operation of the banks, or if need be by legislation. Advises Much Caution. "The board believes that at this time banks should proceed with much caution in locking up their funds In long term obligations which are short term in form or name, tiut which, either by contract or through force of circumstances, may have to be re­ newed until normal conditions return. The board’s concern and responsibility lies primarily with the banking situ­ ation. “If, however, our banking Institu­ tions have to intervene because for­ eign securities are offered faster than they can be absorbed by Investors— that is. their depositors—on element would be introduced which. If not kept under control, would tend toward In­ stability and ultimate injury to the economic development nt this country. Loan* Are Identified. "While the loans may be short in fontf and severally may be collected at maturity, the object of the borrower must be to attempt to renew them col­ lectively, with the result that the ag­ gregate amount placed here will re­ main until such time as it may be ad­ vantageously converted into a long­ term obligation. It would, therefore, seem that funds of our banks, which should be available for short credit facilities to our merchants, manufac­ turers and farmers, would be absorbed for other purposes to a disproportion­ ate degree, esirecially In view of the fact that many of our banks are al­ ready carrying foreign obligations which they are under agreement to re- “The board deems, therefore, its duty to caution the member banks that It does not regard it in the interest of the country at this time that they In­ vest In foreign treasury bills ot this character. "The United States has now attained a position of wealth and of interna­ tional financial power, which In the natural course of events It could not have reached for a generation. We must be careful not to Impair this po­ sition of strength and Independence.” VILLA BANDITS IN FLIGHT Outlaws Driven From Chihuahua City by Carranzi stas—200 Face Death Attar Being Trappsd.

HIh reply had subtle reaction on that listening circle. Some of the men ex­ changed glances. Fletcher stroked his drooping mustache, seemed thoughtful, but lost something of that piercing scrutiny. "Wai, Ord’s the jumpln’-off place,” he said, presently. "Sure you’ve heerd of the Big Bend country?” “I sure have, an’ was rankin’ tracks fer it.” replied the stranger. Fletcher turned toward a man in the outer edge of the group. “Knell, come In heah." Tills Individual elbowed his way in and was seen to be scarcely more than a boy, almost pale beside those bronz­ ed men. with a long, expressionless face, thin nnd sharp. "Knell, this heah's—*' Fletcher wheeled to the stranger. “What’d you call yourself?" “I’d hate to mention what I’ve been callin' myself lately." This sally fetched another laugh. The stranger appeared cool, careless, indifferent. Knell stepped up, and It was easy to see, from the way Fletcher relin­ quished his part In the situation, that a man greater than he had appeared upon the scene. I “Any business here?” he queried, curtly.

Knell's words cut the air, stilled the room. “You're from way down the river. Thet's what they say down there—‘on tbe dodge.' . . . Stranger, you're a liar!” With swift clink of spur and thump of boot the crowd split, leav­ ing Knell and the stranger in the center. The stranger suddenly be­ came bronze. The situation seemed familiar to him. His eyes held a singular piercing light that danced like a compass-needle. “Sure I lied.” he said, “so I ain’t takin* offense at the way you called me.

It was characteristic greeting. One and ail trooped after the stranger into the hotel. It was a dark, ill-smelling barn of a place, with a bar as high as a short man’s head. A bartender with a scarred face was serving drinks. “Line up, gents," said the stranger. They piled over one another to get to the bar, with coarse jests and or ths and laughter. None of them noted that the stranger old not appear so thirsty as he claimed to be.

Universal grief ia felt throughout the entire community over the un­ timely death of Albert Deller, the suddenness of which came with a shock from which it will take a long time to recover. Mr. Deller, accompanied by George Hayman, left Monday morning of last week for Chicago, to spend a week with friends and to attend the Interna­ tional stock show. While looking around town Tuesday afternoon Mr. Deller complained of feeling badly and they went to their stopping place, where he remained under the care of a physician until Thursday morning, when he asked to come back home. Ho and Mr. Hayman started immediately, coming to Bat­ tle Creek, where they were met by Phil Deller with an automobile and brought to Mr. Deller's home. Medical aid was summoned and It was soon found that Mr. Deller was suffering from strangulated hern-a, the result of an operation for appen­ dicitis eighteen years ago. An op­ eration was resorted to, but it was too late, and the unfortunate man passed away Saturday mprnlng. The funeral was held from tho Barryville church Monday after­ noon, and an immense concourse- of ■people gathered to pay their last res­ pects to their neighbor and friend. Albert Deller was such a man as the community can ill afford to lose. He was square and upright, always courteous and genial, a man loved by all who knew him, a good neigh­ bor and a good friend. Such a man as makes tho world better and more human, and a better place Ln which to live. Peace to his ashes. USE RED CROSS SEALS. Mrs. Phyllis Diamond of Hastings, county agent for tho sale of Red Cross Seals, writes The News that tho sale of Christmas Red Cross Seals in Nashville has been placet with the schools, and we urge our people to buy these seals liberaly when called upon.

The proceeds If the 3 I (f P i sale of these stamps is used in our own county and state. It ta the hope of the Barry county workers to win one of the prizes, and the prize they hope to win is a month's ser­ vice of a visiting nurse. ThU prize will be awarded to the four counties in Michigan selling the most seals per capita.

The Qub is especially convenient for women ar it enables them to save without interfering with regular household requirements. Women as a rule are considered-more frugal than men. Many a man hands his entire monthly earnings aver to his wife regularly and lets her attend to the home finances, even to the extent ot looking after the bank account. In many homes "Mother” attends to most of the Christmas buying. Every woman Joining this club will receive from tho Farmers & Merchants bank a check for the amount she specifies at the time of joining. Holiday gifts, trips or special pleasures can all be easily provided for by saving a few cents weekly through tho Christmas Mon­ ey Club. December 15, 1917, every mem­ ber of the dub can receive from this bank a check fur 912.75, 925.50, 963.75, 989.25, <127.50—Ln fact any other amount, depending upon which division of the club the mem­ ber Joins A cent or two starts you. This plan relieves many women of the worrisome problem that comes up in their minds each Tear: "How can I have money to buy Christmas pres­ ents this year?’ ■ Courteous attention to all is ex­ tended by tho bank. We particu­ larly invite ladies to come in and Join the club. It is simple, easy and to Join takes but a few moments. Come in today. Farmers & Mer­ chants bank.—Advt. MAPLE LEAF GRANGE.

When Nov. 30—Nashville 12; Alumni 0. it is taken Into consideration that the Nashville squad was outweighed It will be noticed that after the by-every team with which it played, second game. Nashville’s goal was and the fact that they piled up a toiai kept sacred, not even a field goal score of 106 against their opponents* being kicked after that time. This 9, it will bo seen that their rec­ shows that the team progressed rap­ ord Is especially worthy of comment. idly, not only on offense, but on de­ tense as well. Very few times after October 13 was any opponent able to make consistent gains or to threat­ en the goal, Bellevue being the onlr team to throw a scare into the squad, which they surely did in the .game at Bellevue on November 1. Tazen altogether, the team is worthy of all the praise it has received, and has brought much glory to the school and the town. Fiye of the teani will be lost for next season through graduation, but there is left the nu­ cleus of a scrappy, fast team for 1917 and with the same good coachirg they have had this year we expect to see Nashville's good record for 1916 duplicated. . r : . !. ! rag..th. : th .. r ; .-1 b--< :: ! th- . i:, ! . < Ihtmgi.t v.at; i. ti'tii:/ r.-taih.tiua.

Danny drew his revolver from Its holster and 'cocked it, • keeping well back that the light streaming from the window would not betray him. Then he took careful alm at the broad breast of the man within. Impelled by curiosity, Danny stepped across the bar of light to ths other side of the window.

Laramie was not communi­ cative. Ji . Duane went to his room in a thoughtful frame of mind. There was something wrong about the mayor of Fairdale. The innkeeper Laramie would be worth cultivating. And last In Duane’s thoughts that night was Miss Longstreth. He could not help .thinking of her—how strangely the meeting with her bad affected him. It made him remember that long-past time when girls had been a part of his life. He bad no right even to dream of a beautiful woman like Bay Longstreth. Several days passed. Duane did not succeed in getting any closer to Laramie, but he found the Idlers on the comers and in hcijt of the stores unsuspicious nnd willing to talk. It did not take him long to find out that Fairdale stood parallel with Hunts­ ville for gambling, drinking, and fight­ ing. Tlie street was always lined with dusty, saddled horses, the town full of strangers. Money appeared more abundant than In any place Duane had ever visited; and it was spent with the abandon that spoke forcibly of easy and crooked acquirement. Duane decided that Sanderson. Brad­ ford. and Ord were but notorious out­ posts of this Fairdale, which was a secret center of rustlers and outlaws. And what struck Duane strangest of all was the fact that Longstreth waa , mayor here acre aou neiu conn and held court uuuy. dally. iuIn­ to play with him ten years ago— Floyd Lawson. Floyd, my daughter— and my niece, Ruth Herbert." Duane always scrutinized everyone he met. and now with a dangerous game to play, with a consciousness of Longstreth’s unusual and significant personality, he bent a keen and searching glance upon this Floyd Lawson. He was under thirty, yet gray at his temples—dark, smooth-shaven, with lines left by wildness, dissipation, shadows under dark eyes, a mouth strong and bitter, and a square chin— a reckless, careless, handsome, sinist­ er face strangely joslng the hardness when he smiled. The grace of a gentleman clung round him, seemed like an echo In his mellow voice. Duane doubted not that he. like many a young man. had drifted out to the frontier, where rough nnd wild life hud wrought sternly but had not quite effaced the mark of good family. Colonel Longstreth apparently did not share the pleasure of his daughter and his niece li> the advent of this cousin. Something hlng.-d on thl« hod brooght hlm ,BCt ,hnt meeting.

The driver pushed his team to a fast trot, which gait surely covered ground rapidly. Early in the afternoon from a ridge­ top Duane sighted Fairdale, a green patch in the mass of gray. For the barrens of Texas it was Indeed a fair sight. But he was more concerned with its remoteness from civilization than Its beauty. At that time. In the enrjf seventies, when the vast western third of Texas was a wilderness, the pioneer had done wonders to settle there and establish places like Fair­ dale. It needed only a glance for Duane to pick out Colonel Longstreth’s ranch. The house, not more than a few min­ utes' walk from the edge of the town, was a low flatroofed structure made of red adobe bricks. All was green about it, except where the fenced corral and numerous barns or sheds showed gray and red. From all outside appearances Fair­ dale was no different from other frontier towns, and Duane’s expecta­ tions were scarcely realized. As the afternoon was waning he halted at a little inn. A boy took charge of his horse. Duane questioned the lad about Fairdale and gradually drew to the subject most in mind. “Colonel Longstreth has a big out­ “Bo Sneckerl fit ehr “Reckon he has," replied the lad. have a rough-looking young fellow "Doan know how many cowboys. rush by him out of the door.

The late Claude McIntyre, before leaving Jackson for his ill-fated trip to the Canadian woods, took out a life insurance policy of 12,560, in the Northern Assurance eompauy of Detroit, payable to hta parents, Mr. and Mrs. John McIntyre. Tho poli­ cy was Issued July 21, and young McIntyre left tor Ontario lu .August. His people knew nothing about the insurance until notified by M. F. Cottrell, the Jackson representative of the company, who came here Fri­ day, called Mr. and Mrs. McIntyre to Nashville and turned over to them a check for the full amount of the policy. It is needless to say that the bereaved parents were touched by this further evidence of tbs love and thoughtfulnss of their eon, who had always been their prid3 and joy. The Woman’s Literary club met at the home of Mrs. Harriet Furniss, Tuesday afternoon, Dec. 19.

C. Hurd waa collapsing under the weight of the snow. A number of willing workers quickly gathered, teams were rushed for posts, and the roof was soon so thor­ oughly supported that It could not settle further, then the snow was shoveled off and the building saved from further damage. The trou­ ble was caused by faulty truss rods, the burrs of which were too loosely fitted, allowing the rods to strip the threads under the weight of the snow. The trouble was principally in the front end of the building, which will need new truss rods and to be jacked up to its former posi­ tion. Both side walls were forced out of true by the giving of the rods, but Mr. Hurd seems satisfied that .they can be brought back into place as soon as the roof is properly sup­ ported. Joe was outj>f town at the time, visiting friends at Perry, but. hustled home upon receipt of a tele­ gram informing him of the trouble, and is now busy getting the damage repaired.

Kidney troubles are getting more common every day. Government health bureau figures say deaths from this cause are 82 per cent more than 20 years ago. Anybody who suffers constant backache, who feels blue, nervous and irritable; who has dizzy spells, headache and urinary disorders should suspect kidney weakness. Overworked kidneys must have rest. Take things easier; live more care­ fully. Take a good kidney remedy to build the kidneys up again. But be sure to get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the oldest, the most widely used, the best recommended of all kidiiey pills, now In use all over tlie civilized world. Don’t experiment with your kidneys. Thousands have already tested Doan’s. You have their experience to go by. Plenty of cases right here in Nashville. Here's one: Mrs. J. F. Taylor. Main SL, Nash­ ville, says: "Some years ago I had backaches, headaches and other symp­ toms of kidney trouble. A friend recommended Doan's Kidney Pills to me and I began using them. Two boxes greatly relieved me. When 1 have any sign of the trouble now, I depend on Doan’s Kidney Pills to give me relief.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Taylor had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. Early Dynamos.

"Tnlk I ng about rk, Laramie, 7:30; prayer meeting Wednesday worked for?*’ evening. of the day there was a cool, unob­ trusive manner, a speech brief, almost gentle, certainly courteous. Lawson was a hot-beaded Louisianian of French extraction; a man. evidently, who had never been crossed in any thing, and who was strong, brutal, passionate, which qualities in the face of a situation like this made him simply a fool. “You’re right But not the kind you think,” Duane retorted, his voice sharp and cold. “Ray Longstrrth wouldn’t stoop to know a dirty blood-tracker like you," said Lawson hotly. He did not seem to have a deliberate intention to rouse Duane; the man was simply rancor­ ous, Jealous. “I’ll call you right You cheap bluffer 1 You four-flush 1 You damned Interfering, conceited ranger 1" "Lawson, I’ll not take offense, be­ cause you seem to be championing your beautiful cousin," replied Duane, In slow speech. “But let me return your compliment You're a fine South­ erner I Why. you’re only a four-flush— a cheap bull-headed rustler I" Duane hissed the last word. Then for him there was the truth In Law­ son's working passion-blackened face. Lawson Jerked, moved, meant to draw. But how slow! Duane lunged forward. Ills long arm swept up. And Lawson staggered backward, knocking table and chairs, to fall bard. In a half-sitting posture against the wall. “Don't drawl" warned Duane. “Lawson, git away from your gun!" yelled Laramie. But Lawson was crazed with fury. He tugged at his hip, bls face corded with purple welts, malignant, murder­ ous. Duane kicked the gun out of his hand. Lawson got up, raging, and rushed out Laramie lifted his shaking hands. “What 'd you wing him for?" be walled. “He was drawin’ on you. Kickin' men like him won't do out here." “That bull-headed fool will roar and butt himself with all his gang right Into our hands.

BIG YEAR FOR ROADS Washington, Dec. 26.—Mort* than $1,000,000,000 net Income from opera­ tions was made by the railroads of the country during the year now clos­ ing. The huge total Is the peak of prosperity In railroad operations, and stands more than one-third higher than the total of 1013, hitherto the banner year. Statistics gathered by the Interstate commerce commission complete for nine months and made the basis for calculation for the entire year, indi­ cate that the total net income from operations will be approximately $1,­ 008,000,000. For the first nine months of the year complete returns show $785358366. Even tills does not rep­ resent the full amount, as roads whose Income Is less than $1,000,000 are not included. Estimate Is Conservative. The estimate—$1,098,000,000—Is re­ garded by officials as conservative. Where Money Came From.
