V ^ CLSTKLAWD YZTOSS niMio* tax-atraomLu, iwtvicii , IOE LQOAH-COHOKItllOIAl 1 DOUTOS. Ceaeral Epitoao of Capital Kewa. W A HINGTOS, FKU. 14, 'ST. In an exhaustive and very comprehensive document, the President baa returned to the house without bis approval the bill ,Lfor th> relief of dependent parents Mid honorably discharged soldiers and sailors who are now disabled and dependent upon their ftwn labor for support." i his veto message the scope and probable effect of the bill are considered, and the Bresident's reasons stated very plainly, e considers the language of the bill very" uncertain and liable to conflicting constructions, and this alone he considers sufficient ground for,disapproval. Iu short, the evils threatened by the bill are such that duty and the interests of the country impel a veto. The ball and its accompanying message has been referred to the committee on invalid pensions. It is not at all probable that the bill will be passed over the veto, although the friends of the bill look mysteriously wise and say this will be done. The senate has passed a bill granting to the state of California 5 per cent, of the net proceeds of the sale of lands in that state. The conferees on the anti-polygamy bill have reached a complete agreement on the points of difference between the two houses, and the bill will be reported in a few days. The bill repeals the charter of the Mormon church. Churches will not be interfered with. The charter of the Mormon immigration society is revoked. Important features of both home and senate bills are included. 1 TM senate devoted one entire session to \ eulogizing the memory of the late Gen. ; Logan. Mrs. Logan and her son, daughter, i and friends t o toe number of abjout 25, occupied seats in the private gallery- Senator Cullom offered the resolution that business be suspended and that tho friends and associates of the deceasediiay fitting tribute 19 his public and prjrvata life. Mr. Cullom delivered a very able and brilliant address, sketching in brief the principal events of w life so full of honor, and paid a glowing tribute to the honor and probity of the man who had so suddenly beep called hence. The eulogy closed with tt quotation ending: "Rest, soldier, statesman, rest; thy troubled life Is o'er." Mr, Morgan did not think of Logan as a force that bad passed away, but as a living, moving energy, still useful in the great purposes of divine economy. No guile, no evasion, no finesse, characterized Logan, but he was a bold, pronounced, dignified, earnest, manly, firm, generous, true man. According to the provisions of a resolution adopted by the senate a few days ago the committee on education and labor will continue its investigation during the coming recess, as to the relations between labor and capital. Conferees have been appointed on the Detroit postofirle* biH as follows: On part of the senate—Mahone, Vest and Palmer; on the part of the house—Worthington, Owen , and Maybury. , It will be seen that the city's interests are to be well looked after by having Messrs. Palmer and Maybury on the committee. It is also believed that the differences between the two houses can be satisfactorily arrauged in a few days and it is possible that final argument may include the senate appropiation of $ I,WOO,000 which is $275,000 more than the house amendment allows. As an item of news any reference to the Detroit postoffice bill -partakes of a decided chestnut flavor, and every 31. C. from Maine to California is thankful that there is a prospect of a settlement of some sort. While the, conference committee on fortifications has not reached a definite agreement there is every prospect of the final passage of the bill making adequate appropriations for this purpose before the Close of the session. There seems to be a very general demand for an adequate appropriation of this character, so that it is probable that a much larger amount than is asked for by the senate amendment f will be recommended. The message of the President vetoing the pension bill is the one topic of conversation in the city. The diversity of opinion about the matter creates no little surprise, but one aud all agree that, no mat ter how apprehensive they may be of tho result, the President will be sustained. Senator Edmunds said Logan was entitled to the highest praise for his candor, simplicity and persistence, and for the noble, generous spirit which inspired his life. He thought of Logan, not as dead, but as promoted, leaving friends to mourn his departure, "hot for his sake, but because bis example, experience in public affairs and the wisdom of his counsels were withdrawn. Senator Manderson spoke of the brilliant military qualities of Lognn, and Senator Allison also dwelt upon his brilliant military career. Senator Hampton said that none were more willing to.pay due tribute to the memory of pen. Logan than those../who had been his political opponents. As a democrat a southern man, and a confederate soldier, he was called uponv to speak of Logan as a republican, honored by his party, a northern man who had giVeh his blood to prove the sincerity of his convictions, and as a federal soldier whose fame was as widespread as it was fairly achieved. Senators xHawley, Spooner, Cockrell. Frye, Plumb, Sabine, Ransom, all spoke of the noble qualities of the man whom the nation mourned, as a fearless, honest man who bad entered into that blessed rest and glorious immortality. Senator Evarts said the looms of time were never idle: the busy fingers of the fates were ever weaving, as in a tapestry, the many threads und colors which make out men's several live-, and when these were exposed to critics and admirers, there »y oil Id be found few of a brighter color or jof nobler pattern than that of Logan. Mr. Palmer snid that if Logan had been a Frenchman during the throes of the revolution he cwould have been the Danton of the day, and his motto that of his great Erototype—"to dare"—and by t i n t sign e would have saved his country. If borriH . .__ in Switzerland he would have been a Wink- j ?,*-** elride. If there was to be a distinctive type of the Caucausian race, it would have as a, substructure the virtues which have made the; name of Logan famous—intrepidity of spirit, honesty of purpose, generosity for the vanquished and catholicity of view for all. Only nineteen working days remain t o the present congress. Thirteen of the fourteen annual appropriation bills, including the river and harbor biU are not yet ready to g6 to the president. Ten remain to be acted upon in the senate. Nine require the action of senate committees. 'Five have not yet passed tl*e house and two hare y e t to make their initial step from house committees, tie. addition to these the last year's fortification bill yet lingers in conference. Iu view of all this it is safe to say that the present congress is decidedly a dilatory one, and that fewer adjournments in memory of those who have finished their labors and gone hence, and fewer besaiona devoted to eulogies and the like, and more hard work, will l<e just as pleasing to a "grateful constituency." Tbe attorney for the Michigun Central railway is in Washington to .-ee what cau be done toward securing congressional sanction toward the erection of a bridge across the Detroit river. The proposed bridge is for winter use only,the experiences of the present winter having demonstrated the utter futility of depending upon the transfer boats as a means of transit between the two shores. The new bridge will in no way obstruct navigation. The expense of the proposed bridge will be in the neighborhood of $1,000,000. The attorneys feel reasonably certain that the necessary concessions can be secured from the Canadian government if congress will authorize the bridge. Mr. Maybury has a bill prepared which will be introduced in a few days. The president's reception to the army and navy the other night was a brilliant affair. Miss Kose Cleveland is a guest at the white house. The most amicable relations exist between the president's wife and sister, and Kose doesn't feel at all vindictive because her position as mistress of the executive mansion has been given to another. The army appropriation and immediate transportation bills have been signed by the president. The bill for the erection of a United States prison is virtually killed, as the judiciary committee has made an adverse report on the matter. The republican members, however, of that committee recommend the passage of the bill in a long minority report. The house committee on public buildings has reported a bill appropriating $75,000 for the erection of a public building in Kalamazoo. The original bill called for $150,000, but the majority of the committee thought the amount asked for excessive. However $7.tyH'0 ivill erect a very creditable structure if the amount be • judiciously expended. It's to be devoutly hoped that Kalamazoo will not have to wait as long for ,a settlement of site, amount, etc.yas Detroit has. I k e supreme coart has rendered a de* cisioa in the polygamy case of Lorenso Bnow, which came/up on an appeal from a decision of the/third judicial court of Utah, denying the application for a writ of habeas corpus, Snow was tried and—found guilty of polygamy on three indictments, alike, except that they cover ed different periods of time. Snow was sentenced to pay a fine of ¢800 and six mouths imprisonment upon each Indictment, the several terms of imprisonment to follow each other. After the first termhad expired Snow filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus and discharge frpm prison on the ground that he could not be sentenced to three terms of imprisonment lor the same offense. Hi* application was denied, and he appealed to the supreme court, and that tribunal holds that there was only a single offense committed prior to the time, the indictments Were found, and the order and judgment of the Utah court is reversed The senate bill to encourage the manufacture of steel for modern nuval ordnance and other naval purpose-; came up iu the house the other day, but did not go through as easily as its friends anticipated^and after wrangling over it nearly tho entire session, tbe matter was finally referred to the committee on appropriations. „_.

" The house has passed thesenate bill for the retireuient and recolnnge of tho silver dollar, first amending it so that the recoinage'of this coin shall not be considered as part bTThe monthly purchase of silver bullion now required. One of the principal addresses in support of this bill was made by Mr. Tnrsney. The senate has passed the Houth American mail subsidy bill. The question of (Jen. Hazen's successor is still being agitated, inasni uch as no stops are being taken at present to transfer the signal service to a civil branch of the government. Col. Black ofpFort Wayne, still stands foremost in the rapidly increasing list of applicants. It is believed l>y army officers here that if the transfer is not made that promotion lies between Col. Black and Capt. Greely, the present acting signal officer. Tho senate has passed a bill providing for the printing of «0,500 copies of the Logan eulogies delivered in the senateT The bill was introduced by one of the speakers, and of course received the hearty endorsement of the others, all of whom are anxious that their friends should be supplied with printed copies of their eloquence, and are just as anxious that the government should foot the bill. The house has devoted portions of several sessions the past week to services in ] honor of its deceased members, BO that ! practically bu(t very little legislation has I been accomplished by the lower house of ' our national legislature. The commissioner of pensions has had prepared a letter of introduction and blank forms of application and affidavits of witnesses for the use of applicants for pensions under the Mexican pension law of January 29, 18*7. Upon receipt of an individual application an appropriate 4ettf>r^mytrtictitm-aitd-«et-frfhinnks wiH be forwarded to the applicant. The letters of instruction are full and explicit aud the blank forms plain, and all may be easily understood without the necessity of a legal education. Since the railroad accident in Vermont, tho patent office has been flooded with inventions for heating passenger cars that will obviate the danger of tire. Sot only are inventions coming in from every source, but the demands for drawings and copies of the patents continue to come from all sections of the country. Attaches of the patent office express the opinion that the number of car heaters patented in the next year, .will be equal to, if it does not exceed, the annual lint of car couplers. Tho naval and defense bills now before congress are receiving considerable attention, the general opinion being that while all talk of war . with England is simply nonsense, yet there is imperative necessity for immediate legislation in tho matter. The following is the status of the appropriation bills: The army bill is a law. The Indian, sundry civil, pensions and postoffice bills have passed both houses and now await concurrence by the house in the senate amendments or adjustment of differences by conference. The river and harbor, military academy, District of Columbia and agricultural bills have passed the house and are in the hands of the senate committees. Tho legislative, diplomatic OTKLconsular and naval bills await the action of^the house. The deficiency and fortifications-(this year's) bills are yet to be reported by ' theimuse. Last year's fortifications bill is stilf in<.conference with little prospect of agreement. -Appropriation bills will undoubtedly engross the attention of the house during the greater part of this week. The members of the house commirtee on foreign affairs had an interview with the president tho other day in connection with the retaliatory fisheries legislation now pending in congress. The interview was strictly confidential. The president sought to impress upon the members of the committee Ik? necessity of making very clear and free from ambignity any measures relating to the subject of the fisheries which congress might see fit to pass. If there was to be any legislation on the suhject, he said, it Bhould state definitely whetherYailroadsand' all other carriers were to be included in the prohibition. Invitations have been issued to the third annual reunion and dinner of the Washington association of the university of Michigan, at Williard's hotel Thursday -evening, Feb. 17. It is expected that President Angell of tbe university will be present. The exercises will be in celebration of the semi-centennial of the university. The list of residents of Washington who recognize the institution at Ann Arbor as alma mater include about ninety; tho namos embracing senators, members of eortgross, officials of various degrees of promineuce and all the leading professions. The officers are: Senator T. W. Palmer, '49, vice-president; the Hon. B. M. Cutcheon, '61; the Hon. J. H. McGowan, »61; Mr. J. R.'Cook, '54; Mr. R. H. Thayer, '70; treasurer A. A. Birney, '73; secretary D. E. Fox, 'SL Senator Palmer in company with Senator Gorman visited the white house a few ago in behalf of Senator Conger. Mr. Palmer made a very able speech iu support of his colleague for inter-state commissioner, and he is of the opinion that Mr. Conger will be appointed, although the president gave him no definite assurance ofHhis fact. Judge Reagan, who has worked faithfully for tbe passage of tho bill during the past twelve years, was-summoned to the white houso in relation to this subject, and it is understood that Judge Reagan, recommended the appointment of Gov. Ireland of Texas as one of tho commission. It seems a settled fact that Judge Cooley will-not get an appointment on tho interstate commerce' commission, as tho president lias expressed a determination to appoint no one who has be*n in any way •conuci'ted with railroads. This, of course, will bar Cooley. The president has sent to the house, in answer to the resolution introduced by Mr. Hclmont, copies of correspondence which has taken place since December 8 last, between th* department of state and the government of Great Britain on the fisheries dispute. The lowering of the flag on the Mary Grimes, th«* action of Canadian authorities toward*'-the fishing vessel Crittenden, and the refusal of the authorities to allow the schooner Sarah H. Pryor to enter the port °* Macpeque, are discussed in tho correspondence, as is the seizure of the David J. Adams. In the cases of the Everett Steel and Pearl.Nelson, detained for noncompliance with Canadian customs regulations, the letter of Lord Lansdowne emphasizes the statement that tho British government do«9 not desire to curtail any of the privileges enjoyed by United States 'fishermen" in Canadian waters*. Tho correspondence between the two governments- is exceedingly spicy, and partakes not a little of ncrimony. The position of the United StateB, however, on this matter, is for a direct settlement of the matter. OFF ON A JAUNT. Legislative Solon* "IJoiug" State Institutions— Items Gathered In and About the Capital. LANSING, February 14, J8S7. In reference to the bill proposing to equalize soldiers' bounties the quartermaster general's office furnishes the following figures: From the records in the office it is ascertained that up to October. 18tl3, a total of 8,111 men had been paid a state bounty of $50 each, the aggregate amount being $405,550. Up to October, 1864, there were 5,824 men paid a bounty of $100 each, aggregating 1582,400. From that date u n t o October, 1805, when bounties ceased,'4,645 men were paid f 159 each, aggregating $696,750. The state paid these men in bounties a total of $1,684,700. It U now urged: that those who received no state bounty shtrald be placed on the same footing as those who enlisted later and did not serve so long. Michigan furnished 90,000 nven, and according to the above figures 71.420 of them received no state bounty. To give each one of"these $166, the highest state bounty received by any one, would i-equire $10,715,000. To further equalize it, the 8,111 men who were paid $50 bounty should have an additional $,100, and this awarded would take $811>100, To give the 5,824 who received $100 an additional $50 requires $291,£00, making a total of $11,815,800. Thus far a little less than 400 bills have teen introduced— about 275 in the house and about 120 in the senate. Of these 150 have been ordered printed, either through having been recommended by the various committees to which thoy were referred, or by the house or senate for the benefit of the committees interested. No pnblic act has yet been signed by the governor, although several have been po>sed. He has, however,signed four joint resolutions and 10 private acts. The sen: ate has passed some 20 bills and the house about 45. A few have been killed by striking out all after the enacting clause, but as only eight days will remain afterfcho recess in which to introduce bills, it is probable that the motion of the legislature, both as respects passing and "killing, will be faster. Now much time is spei*$ in committee of tho whole over .privato acta. When inatters.of great importance begin to press,these will be acted on by an explanation from the iutrodueer of tho bill and a yea and nay. vote, withont debate. The churls may grumble ahd find fault because the legislators are enjoying themselves at the state expense, but it's really money in tho treasury in the long run, inasmuch as this vacation is taken inside the 50 days allowed by the constitution for the introduction of bills, as the number to bo acted upon will certainly be reduced, and thereiore moro time be given for their consideration. It is not probable that this will materially affect the length of the session, but there is something wonderfully pleasing in the thought that matters of tonsiderablo importance will not be rushod -¾rough with a rush aud a bang.

Augustine, Fla. Tlie reply is accompanied by communication from Dr. G. B, Agnew of Florida, asking that the department erect school buildings for the education of all Apaches and offering in the name'of the "Augustine Aid Society" to procure teachers for the school free of c o s t ^ T h e reply of the department to these communications hi also submitted and shows grave doubts as to^the advisability of pursuing this course, and that the department had no auThority to spend money for the buildings desired. Mr. Steele of Indiana created considerable amusement in the house the other day, when he attempted to call up for consideration the bill for the reorganisation of the armv, suggesting that as war bad been declared it was important that action should be taken on the measure, The house could not look, at tbe matter in the same light, and declined to t » k » u p the special order. The senate has passed tho house bill to prohibit government olllcers hiring or con-1 tracting out the labors of prisoners, and amending the statutes iu relation to the immediate transportation of dutiable' goods. The house has passed the senate bill prohibiting the importation of opium by the Chinese, and substituted and passed the house bill to indemnify certain subjects o£ stained" By .T., in September 1885. A general order is being prepared at tho war department designating fixed courses of studies at colleges and schools where army officers are detailed as military professors. The effect of the order will be to have a course prescribed as high as the first years' course at West Point ~T-his change in our educationnl system has been brought about by Major Rogers of tho Michigun Military Academy. A joint resu ution has been introduced, in the senate proposing an amendment to the constitution providing for the election of senators fqr a term of. four years, and requiring that but sixteen of these be elected at every alternate election of a state legislature. The resolution seems to confliot with section one of article four of tiie constitution, and has been referred rr the judiciary committee. The events of the week ending Jan. 29, were the seating of John Rairden as senator from the first senatorial district and tbe passage of the constitutional amendment in the senate by the necessary twothirds vote> submitting the question of prohibition to the people at the spring election The contest is now changed from the legislature to the people, as tbe governor has approved the joint resolutoin. Nothingelsoof importance transpired. Henry Chamberlain's protest against Gov. Luce acting as,governor because of his being a member or the board of agriculture made only a passing ripple on tbe current of events. But the report of the judiciary committee to whom it was referred left no doubt among the fair minded that as soon as Mr. Lnce took the oath of office as governor of Michigan his position in the state board of agriculture became vacant. 4 Tennessee's peanut crop tin- yr.*ar is worth $700,000.

Cox, once a well-to-do Merchant of Canada, moved to Brighton about a year ago, having lost all his property, was adjudged hopelessly insane one day last week, and was taken to the Pontiac aslyum.

A mad dog passed t h r o u g h Hartland, the other day, and bit a n u m b e r of dogs and sheep. One of the dogs bitten has became* mad and been shot, while the others have been, chained u p and muzzled to await further developements. The dog also attacted E.

The Dexter-l^eader says that-IXexter is getting the railroad fever, and gives the following beneficial remarks:— " T h e old railroad question of building the Michigan Central branch -which has been surveyed from this village to Mason, is again being agitated. Tlie Pinckney DISPATCH of last week contains a somwbat h n g t b y articLe in which it states that Mr. Topping, of Plainfield, has been along t h e proposed line, stirring up the people to the necessities and advantages of such a project, and that should they look upon it with favor and be willing to lend their substantial aid, the road will, in -allr-prob4b4ity- be built.-.-Tb^...i»en£fita.|JiiaJf.orlwJipra are invalids to the people of this village and farming community, should such a road be constructed, are obvious. The road will, bring, among other changes, competition, a n d sdmpetition to us in bur last and almost dying struggles, means a great deal. Our merchants eould sell their goods cheaper because of the reduction in freights. For the same reason farmers could sell their produce a t an increased price, k there 4 question but t h a t this would lead to •* more prosperous state of affairs?. From t h e Detroit dailies we iearn t h a t '"Mason has the railroad fever to the a m o u n t of wanting a Michigan Central cutoff to Dexter." Ot course their benefits m i g h t be g r e a t e r thaii ours, b u t if fchey have the "fever" at the other end of the line, a n d the heat along the line is steadily increasing, how long will it be before staid old Dexter hertelf will fall a n unwilling victim to the contagion?

Improved methods of research are bringing to light many substances which enter into the earth's composition in very minute proportions. Dur ing the last ten years forty-two new chemical elements have been discovered, of which eight were found in 1886. The public food-testing laboratory of P a r i s has be n doing good work in discouraging the sale of impure foods; ami the authorities now find the need ot a laboratory for the study of the contagious diseases of animals, for the special purpose ot preventing the sale of diseased meat. DEFORMED AKD COMMUNICATING FISHES.— Among many thousands of newlyhatched t r o u t and salmon examined at the Royal Aquarium at South Kensinsr-' ton during 1885 and 18Sr>, Mr. August Carter found one case ot deformity in every thousand, and one case of monstrosity— such as twin and doubleheaded fish—in every four thousand. His observations have convinced him that certain fish, such as the carp arid perch, have the power of communicati n g with one another. T U M B L E - W E E D . — A common eastern weed, according to Prof. <>. E. Betsey,, is modified by climate on the western plains and prairies into a compact plant, whose stout, curving branches give it an approximately spherical form, and which is called "tumble-weed" from the fact that when the stem is broken near the gronnd by the a u t u m n gales the upper part goes roHinj? and t u mining beforeJlie wind, often tor miles.

He finds that not only the feet but the whole body of a man exhale a peculiar or individual odor which a dog c.;in recognize as that of his master amidst a crowd of other persons.; that tbe individual quality of this odor.can be recognized at great distances to windward, or in calm weather at great' distances in a n v - d i r e c t i o n ; and that even powerful perfumes may not overcome this odor. Yet a single sheet of brown paper, when stepped upon instead 6f the ground and afterward removed, was sufficient to prewent Mr. Romanes' dog from following his trail.

Othera have thought, ainoa tho glows tint bocame pronTaeat alter tot graft! eruption of Krakatoa, they sxiit bftfft been caused by the) immenae quaatidaa of aahes ejected into tba atmoaphera at that time. The intereat ia this apeoial phenomauou was in part trana* f erred during the paat year to the whit ah glare about, the aun, which could be easily observed when the aun waa partly hidden by cloud*, or by etandtag behind the vertical edge of a ^wail and allowing the glare to appeal beyond the aun, the aun ttaelf being hidden by the wail. Careful pbaerraitiooa of thia gl*re have been made by Dbserver8 in Europe, and while titers teemed to be aome connection with the preTioua glow thia could not be aatiafactorily eatabliahed. The Mtroa4 omers have been aome what iyauble<t by this glare, aa it iirterfered with the more delcate obaervationa. Inquiry at the Naval observatory haa developed the l act that thia mnpleaaant glare has largely, disappeared within • month, and that aeeing ia much bet* ter. Another interesting fact that mutt have been noted by many ia the beginning again ot the aun glowa. Laet Monday night at 7:50 the western sky presented a tine spectacle. There waa « brilliant orange color extandtng to 45 degrees above the horizon, ftfid through this there wore three atreaks of clear blue running upward from the • aun. This first glow died away in fifteen minuter, and waa followed later by a secondary rose color, which lasted till after 8:30. Last night the sam* 4rst glow was aeen at 7:23 • with its streaks, and in addition there were the corpuscular rays in the east, lasting live minut-es from 7:25. The first glow faded at 7:30. and was followed by a light second glow. The, second appearance, occurring so near the anniversary of the first, is of fjreat impor> tance. If it is a renewaTof the arsl phenomenon, it will be plain that the Krakatoa has been wrongly as jibed aa acaude. If however, thi, ia the last stage of the original phenomenon which appeared secondarily in the glares'already mentioned,- then it will be iuteresting to observe th# gradual d sappearataue. . If thete are ashes in the atmosphere, and if they are working down; then there ought to be' some si^ns of them in the rainfalLy Observations would be valuable at aaj po nt in the country in order to ai«Oftr> tain whether the' mewrbldgical CdhfJV tions atleot the phenomenon. ^rn^hJ oiMurvatious may be made ot the time of beginn ug ot the first and second glow* ami the time of last disappearjuice. Tim glare, if any,—about the Him aud the haze over the moon should also be noticed. Scientists, by these observations, hope to advance their Luowledge largely of this appearance, even though a tiiiai solution may aot be attained.— Washington Posl.

Advices of the 18th inst., show a very i serious state of affairs in all the streams in the lower half of the state. A,t Kala ' mazoo no one remembers ever to havp seen the river so high. The low lands a r e : completely flooded. Ice gorges have been \ prevented by the use of dynamite, B U d the bridges have been protected by loading them with stone a n d preventing the accumulation of drift wood. At Coldwater the low mill grounds are all atioat. Barnhart's mill dam and t h a t at Branch are 'gone. The water at Petersburg, Monroe county, is higher t h a n ever known, b u t fences and hay and straw stacks are us yet the only sufferers. Three dams have been washed away in tho vicinity of Colon, Kt. Joseph county. Several bridges are gone and across country travel greatly impeded in th«> region of Hudson. At Union City the flats aro under water and the railroad bridge is in danger. Tho ice having gone out of the Raisin at Monroe tho chief danger there is .past, but the river is full to its banks. At] Owosso the Shiawassee has flooded all t e r r i t o r y adjacent to its banks, carried on" • considerable lumber and damttged buildhigs to a considerable extent. At Muir the same serious eouditions prevail as at other poiuts in tho vicinity, and merchants have abandoned their stores, and things tire generally afloat. At Three Rivers the shops are all closed in consequence of the high water. The immense lumber piles are only kept from taking French leave by being held by booms b u t this wiil probably prove effectual. Strenuous efforts have thus far preserved t h e railroad track from serious washouts. There is an exte-nsive ice gorge in »$he St. Joseph, east of tho town, which «riay vet make still more serious mischief. At Vermontvillo the Thorhapple river is higher t h a n ever before k n o w n . Two large bridges have boeu swept a/vay, and the railroad submerged. A t Ionia the flats south of the city are under water an'd the roads in t h a t direction,, rendered impassable. The bridges are being held by loads nud chains and are beiug closely watched. None have, gone as yjet. At Belding the high wateiMuis invaded the shops and compelled a stoppage. Take it all around, i t is a moist spell of weather. Tho business p a r t of Lyons, Ionia county was under from four to eight feet o.f water for several days. A p a r t of the Cornell works were swept away, the tool factory of J. <fc P. Arnold badly damaged, the walls of tho woolen mill of O. A. Amsden crushed in by the force of ice and water. And tho bridge is'-badlv wrecked,- The damage is between $75,QOtfand 5?UX),0O0/and nearly every business man iu the place is a looser. -*> Death of Judge Lawton. Judge George W. Lawton, while reading a newspaper in the depot at L a w t o n the other morning a b o u t 7 o'clock, dropped dead of heart disease. He was about to t a k e the train for P a w Paw. Judge Lawton was 52 years old and was a native of Auburn, N. Y. He attended school a t the Auburn academy and afterwards Geneva college. In 181S- his- father, N a t h a n Lawton, owned- the land upon which-the business portion of>Lawton village is located and where the place was soon after selected as a station for tho Michigan Central railroad. Mr. Lawtoirlaid out a town there and it was named him. He had previously donated tenh-cres of land for depot buildings. Ho was hirfrsfilr a t no time a resident of the Slace, butDis.sons, George W. and Chas. i., have been "citizens of the place since J u n e , 1S01.

In 862 he entered the a r m y atf seeomkliout e n a c t of company €K Fourth cava Monroe flooded, Monroe experienced a few d a y s ago t h e worst flood ever known there. ,-A j a m ox ice had come from u p the river, stopped against the one below t h e city, a n a the w a t e r in the upper p a r t of the city soon reached the highest point by several feet i t has ever attained. A number of residence were flooded, the ice crashed up against them, a n d the cries of distress from the occupants could be heard for blocks. All were rescued, The Macomb street bridge was lifted off its a b u t m e n t s and carried about thirty feet d o w u stream, when the ice gorged. A b o u t 5 o'clock in the evening the ice moved again, completely wrecking t h e Macomb street bridge. The n o r t h s p a a stopped 100 feet west of the Lake Shore bridge and at 7 o'clock sank to the bott o m . The water had fallen considerably in tho upper p a r t of tho city, b u t is very high in the lower part. S T A T K I T l u M S . Early in June, 1804, he was wounded in ilre ~ " 'f'fr %?•?"•> •& 1 t h e body, the ball entering his breast and' being taken out a t th^ shoulder. He was brevetted major in the A t l a n t a campaign. His record as a soldier was t h a t of a brave and most excellent and eftlcient' ofticer in camp, on the march and in battle. After the war Maj. Lawton resumed tho practice of law a t his home and has been quite successful, achieving a reputation as a wise counsellor and able advocate. As a writer upon legal m a t t e r s he won a high reputation, having been for years a contributor to law journals. His brtefs in the supreme court were regarded as very clear and excellent. Maj, Lawton had given much attention also to pomological mattea* and he became an extensive and valued writer and speaker en subject connected w i t h h o r t i c u l t u r e . In political a n d social matters he was a lender and trusted adviser. His literary abiruie-s wero remarkable and rendered him a mdfct delight- , ful conversationalist, .companion and authority.

He was a connoisseur in urt and all his t.«stes were refined. He had been a leading and efficient leader of the republicans of Van Buren county for m a n y years and had served as judge of probate for two terms.

Not many decaden ago in this couiltrv, the people were excited over withcraft. Persons suspected were thrown into the water; if not witches they would drown; if they were witches, they would »wim a.shorc, and would be pnt to death'. In any evant, they were doomed! S'ot many years ago if a person were taken sick with advanced disorder of the kidneys, the physician would pronounce the dnea-so Bright's disease, and when so declared, he regarded his responsibility at mi end, for medical authority admitted that the disease was incurable. Wh«n the physician found a patient thus attik'ted, he would say: "Oh, a alight ati. ack of the kidneyH; will be all right in a little while.'" He knew to the contrary. Uut if he could keep his patient on .his hand* for a few months, he knew he would derive a great revenue from his case, and then when the disease had progressed to a certain stage, he would state the facts Hud rutire, exonerated from all blame. but the error of supposing the disease incurable, has mvayed the public mind, l<jng ufter the fact has ceased to be. But pub.ic opinion has been educated td the true statuK of the case by those who have discounted the incurability thoofy, and the public recognizes and testifies to the fact that Warner's safe cure is a specific for this di mise. This has been shown with thousands of testimonials. t, I"pon referring to them in our files we Hcil that #5,(0) reward will be given to ;ui •-one who can prove that so far as the manufacturers know they are not genuine, ••I ud that hundreds of thousands similar in character could be published, if it wrere necessary.

It seeins strange that when a proprietary medicine is doing the good Warner's safe cure is that the physi- »inns do not publicly endorse it. Many of them, we are told, privately prescribe it. A few years ago, as stated, when a man had Kright's disease, the doctor boldly announced it, because he thought It relieved him of responsibility. To day when prominent people are dying i and hundreds of thousands of common people die of the same disease), we are told that doctors disguise the fact that it is Bright's disease of the kidneys and say they die of paralysis, of apoplexy, of pneujnouia, of consumption, of general debility, of rheumatism, of heart disease, of blood poisonirig;-«r some other of the names of t'.ie direct effects ot kidney disease. They are not the real disease itself. We sometimes wonder "if they avoid stating the real cause of disease for fear they will drive the public into patronage of the only scientific proprietary specific for kidney diseases and the thousands and one diseases that originate in. inactive kidneys, • ^-^ We do not believe every advertisement we read.

My hip and knee had lost nearly all strength by the use of the liniment*, and I could get no help. I saw an advertisement of your remedy in a paper and ordered half a dozen bottles of Hibbsrd's Rheumatic Byrup, took them and received some relief, ordered another dozen. Have taken seven of the last do sen, and I am happy in saying that I know I am being cured. Have not used any liniments since I commenced taking your syrup.

The average depth of snow February 1, in open, level fields was 3 inches it) the southern counties. 6 iDches in the central, and 21 inches in the northern c6nBt.es.

Gov. l'lugree Wins HU Suit to Compel Railroad* to Sell Family Mileage Book* at » Cent* per MUe — Triple Railroad Fatality at Saginaw. Filigree Wins a Notable Victory. Gov. Pingree has won the first round of h i s fight with the Michigan Central Railroad Co. on the question of $20 mileage books, good for the family of t h e purchaser. In t h e governor's suit to compel the company to sell such books. Judge Donovan, of the Wayne circuit court, confirms the position taken by Gov. Pingree- and grants a mandamus to compel t h e railroads to comply with the mileage law of the legislature. In his decision ,1 udge Donovan discusses the case at length. In answer t o t h e plea of the railroad company t h a t the right to fix charges was given t o t h e company by the charter, he indorses the oon.tenjtaon of the complaina n t t h a t the charter only gave the r i g h t to fix rates by bylaws, and t h a t such bylaws must come under the police power, as with hack men, millers, Uquor dealers and others doing public business. By the word of the highest court in like cases in Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois and Michigan, the conclusion is irresistable t h a t only such charges can be collected as are allowed by the laws of t h e state. A Similar Case Against the Uallroad. Grove Wolcott, a prominent lawyer of Jackson sought to purchase a 1,000- mile ticket at the Jackson ticket office, good for himself and wife, he tendering $80" h r - p a y m e n t . He was—informed t h a t no such tickets were for sale.. Mr. Wolcott then bought and paid full price for a regular ticket to Roscommon, and on his r e t u r n brought suit against the Michigan Central railroad t o test the state law. The case was tried before Justice Woods and has resalted in a verdict for Wolcott, who was awarded 92.55, the difference in t h e cost of the ticket he purchased and the rate at 2 cents a mile.

Three persons met a sudden and'violent death and a fourth was seriously injured while crossing the Michigan Central railroad t r a c k s in a sleigh at Sheridan avenue, Saginaw. The dead are: Thomas M. Stewart, a groceryman; Mrs. Elizabeth Moasner. aged 70, of Frankenmuth; Barbara Mossner, aged 26, of Frankenmuth. The fourth occupant of the sleigh, Mrs. Elizabeth Mahncke, also a daughter of Mrs. Mossner, had her right leg broken in three places, and probably received internal injuries. A passenger train from the east, running a t a rapid speed, struck the sleigh as it was fairly on t h e tracks, cutting it louse from the horse, leaving the animal to r u n down the street uninjured. The sleigh was broken into kindling wood. titewart was on his way to his store from delivering goods, and the three women had seated themselves in the sleigh for a ride towards home, not over 50 feet from t h e scene of the accident. Two boys stood near by and saw the rig slowly approaching the tracks and the rapidly moving train bearing down upon it. They shouted several times but t h e driver did not catch the warnings. The four were laughing as the sleigh and its occupants were sent whirling through the air. * Sugar Beet* a Success In Michigan. A bulletin giving t h e results of experimente in the raising of sugar beets in Michigan has been prepared by Profs. Kedzie and Smith of the Michigan Agricultural college. Seed was districuted in 68 counties and samples of beets have been received fgtfttn 64. The average per cent of sugar in beets, with proper soil and seed, is 16.40. T h e range of yields per acre last year was from 12 to 18 tons. The professors say t h a t the results show t h a t the climatic and soil conditions in Michigan are full of promise. T h e labor cost of growing an acre of sugar beets on the college farm, under adverse conditions was $29.40. The average yield per acre at the college farm w a s 10 tons and 328 pounds.

Lansing, the dead body of Roderique C. Lauzun, aged 25. was found in a large pool of blood with his head crushed almost to a pulp. Apparently he had been murdered with a *hatchet or a hammer. There were fractures of the skull both front and rear. One blow struck the right eye. both ears were split; and the occipital bone was badly broken.—The—walls and floor of the room were covered with blood. The motive for the crime was evidently robbery, as Lauzun's pocket book. open, bloodstained and empty was found. It in known t h a t the murdered man had exhibited a large roll of bills on several occasions, and nothing was found in his pockets. Lauzun had been leading a dissolute life, associating with gamblers and fast women.

The Kuropeau Powers Harmonious on the Question of China Cirabblug— Lawless Characters Causing a Ketgn of Terror at skaguay and Dye*. Powers Agreed on Chinese Question. In the British house of lords and in response to a speech by the earl of Kimberly, Premier Salisbury said t h a t England had Waived the demand t h a t Ta-Lien-Wan be made an open treaty port as a condition of the proposed loan, because China objected, until the railroad reached Ta-Lien-Wan w h e n it should be opened. The loan negotiations are still pending. The premier added: " I have received spontaneous assurances from the Russian government t h a t any port they open in China will be open to free commerce, and t h a t similar assurances have been made us by the German government respecting the territory they recently oecupied." Baron von Buelow, the German premier, in addressing the reichstag said: "Our relations with the powers were in no way disturbed by the occupation of , Kiao-Chau. We are in harmony with Russia, whose interests do not conflict w i t h ours anywhere in Europe, and are parallel with ours in Asia. As sincere friends we regard Russia's n a t u r a l development with unenvious sympathy—(cheers)—and France's efforts to obtain fresh trade outlets in Tonquin are quite natural, while It Is far from us to oppose England's just interests in any way or direction. We desire to cultivate relations of harmonious co-operation with Great Britain. (Renewed cheers). Our modest demands have neither menaced the integrity of China nor called for justifiable objections on her part." Baron von Buelow then proceeded to justify t h e acquisition of a point of support in eastern Asia as an absolute necessity, looking to Germany's rapidly growing interests in one of the richest markets of the, world for imports if she did not desire to become a second or third r a t e power in Asia, for every other power, even Portugal and the Netherlands, had territorial possessions there. A TERRIBLE CATASTROPHE. Eleven People Killed, 47 Missing and 10 Injured at a Pittsburg Fire. A fire of mysterious origin completely destroyed the large six-story cold storage plant of the Chautauqua Lake Ice Co., a t Pittsburg, within three hours. The structure was divided by three heavy fire walls into practically four buildings. The ice company had its ice m a k i n g plant and storage warehouses on the lower floors and the Union Storage LO. occupied the balance of the building with the stored property of innumerable householders and merchants, besides about 400 barrels of whisky in bond. When the tire reached the whisky the stuff exploded, blowing out t h e Mulberry alley wall with awful results. The alley was filled with firemen, policemen and reporters, arid many w e r e caught by the falling walls. The large warehouse of W. A. Hoeveler & Co., situated on Pike street, directly opposite"the Chautauqua Co.'s building was also destroyed. Until t h e fallen walls have been cleared away, there can be no certainty as to t h e number of victims, .but it is known t h a t 11 people are dead, 27 missing and 19 injured, and the property loss is 81,500,000. with about 81.000.000 insurance. l)e Lome Calls MrKinhy Hard Name* and Munt l.ettve the I'ulted Htates. 'Die representatives of the Cuban junta ut New'York have'given out cop» ies of a letter signed " E n r i q u e Duguy De Lome" who is minister of Spain at Washington and addressed, to Jose Canalojas, who went to Cuba last September as Premier Sugasta's personal representative. In this letter t h e Spanish minister refers to President Mc- Kinley as " w e a k and catering to t h e rabble," and as a "low politician, who desires to stand well with t h e jingoes of his party." Horatio L. Rubens, counsel for the Cuban J u n t a saysr "We know absolutely t h a t this letter Js genuine. A man risked his life to obtain it. We do not hesitate to acknowledge t h a t it wfcs stolen from Canalejas. I t is written on the paper of the legation. The handwriting is De Lome's and t h e signature is his. He may deny it until he is black in the face, but it is genuine and everybody who has seen it knows t h a t it is." S-v. The publication of De Lome's letter caused a sensation in official Washington and will undoubtedly soon be followed by Senor De Lome's departure from the United States. At t h e outset there was a disposition to question t h e authenticity of the letter, b u t as b i t by bit the circumstantial evidence accumulated, until it was finally announced officially t h a t the minister declined to deny the authorship of the letter, all doubt was dissipated and the only question that remained was as to the line of action to be pursued by our government toward the offending minister. The w r i t i n g of this letter is unquestionably an offense against t h e amenities of diplomatic relations, and such offenses almost invariably have been regarded in the United States, as in other countries, as sufficient ground for the termination of the official status of the letter writer. The state department has promptly taken hold of the matter. Assistant Secretary Day consulting President McKinley four times during the day,which resulted in a message being sent to U. S. Minister Woodford at Madrid directing him to lay the facts before t h e Spanish government together with the statement t h a t in view of the minister's refusal to deny the authorship of the letter the Spanish government is looked to with confidence to deal with the case properly. This amounts to an invitation to recall the minister, presuming t h a t he himself has not already taken steps to vacate his position. No doubt is entertained of a compliance with t h e implied suggestion, but in case there should be undue delay in acting the state department would feel called upon to move directly in t h e matter and give t h e minister his passports. Dr Lome Forced to Resign. Madrid: At a meeting of the Spanish cabinet, t h e minister for foreign affairs, Senor Gullon. read a dispatch from Senor Dupuy de Lome, t h e Spanish minister at Washington, saying t h a t the published letter to Senor Canalejas was written by him. and t h a t his position, consequently, had become untenable, a n d he begged t h e government to accept his resignation. The cabinet decided to accept the resignation, and it was decided to entrust the first secretary with the conduct of the current affairs of the legation. CUBAN MATTERS WARM1NQ UP. Mob Threatened to Lynch Zola. The trial of M. Zola, t h e famous French novelist, for his denunciation of t h e government in the conduct of the Dreyfus case and the Esterhazy courtmartial, resulted in serious rioting in which attempts were made to mob M. Zola. Count Esterhazy refused to appear in court and the judges refused t o force him t o do so. They also declined to allow certain questions asked by t h e M. Zola's attorneys. M. Casimir-Perier, t h e former president of t h e republic, appeared as a witness, b u t before t a k i n g the oath said t h a t he would not tell t h e truth. These pqints were all adverse to M. Zola who appealed t h a t he be accorded a t least as fair a trial as an assassin would be given. China Will Not Take a Loan. A Pekin correspondent says t h a t it is now understood t h a t China has given u p t h e idea of securing a loan from either Great Britain or Russia owing to their jealousy of each other. China will endeavor to obtain an extension of time for t h e payment of t h e Japanese war indemnity, and in t h e m e a n t i m e will authorize an issue of treasury bonds a t 5 per cent to t h e extent of 100,000,000 taels (878,000,000). Chinese bonds have not t h e very best reputation, however. , I Another Note Sent to Spain and a Vigor- ] ous Reply Received. Madrid: El Heraldo says t h a t Gen. Stewart L. Woodford, the United States minister, presented an official note to the Spanish government, to which Premier Sagasta reponded in vigorous terms. The Madrid correspondent of tj§e London Standard says: Senor Sagasta's response to the official note presented by Gen. Woodford, t h e United States minister, complains of filibustering expeditions and declares t h a t Spain cannot entertain the suggestion for fixing a date for her completion of t h e pacification of Cuba. Pessimistic impressions are now current regarding the relations between Spain and t h e Us>;ted States and have depressed t h e Madrid and Barcelona bourses, PublicjCeeling among all classes is strpng against America. A Washington special says; Premier Sagasta has declined t h e t h i r d o^fer of friendly mediation on t h e p a r t of t h e United States. This information was conveyed in a cipher message received from Minister Woodford b y President McKinley. The message was a- most unusual one. Instead of beinfef addressed t o t h e s e c r e t a r y o f a t a t e , i%, was addressed t o t h e President. This cablegram from Woodford was n o t long, b u t recited t h e fact t h a t Premier Sagasta refused t o admit t h a t Spain ha& reached the end of her rope in Cuba; t h a t she was unable to suppress t h e insmrrettion; t h a t autonomy was a failure; -Ory t h a t she needed the assistance of t h e United States in bringing' t h e Cuban struggle to an end.

Nature has provided a certain amount of work for every organ of the human body; overtax them and disease eventually follows. There is not one portion of our organism that is so overworked as the kidneys; on them is placed the important function of filtering the blood of the impurities which naturally form in the regular action of Iffo and digestion. The kidneys are consequently termed the sewerage of the system; clog up this sewer, ami the blood becomes tainted with poisonous uric acid, which brings on disease in many forms. The back is the first to show this stoppage. From" there comes the warning note; it should be heeded, and the kidneys receive prompt attention. Doan's Kidney Pills will right the action of the kidneys quickly, relieve the back of pains and aches, and cure all troubles of kidneys and bladder. Read the following: Mr. Wm. Nelson is a well-kaown business man of Kalamazoo, lie resides at 822 Portage Street, and his business is that of a grain buyer. He says: '' For five years I have suffered from an inability to urinate, which resulted from what was said to be a stoppage of the bladder. During these years I have taken mineral and electric baths and used other means in expectancy of getting better, but they all proved unavailing. Some months ago I began using Doan's Kidney Pills, which I had heard highly recommended, and I can now say that the flattering reports were not greater than they deserved. I got better right along, and I am free from any trouble s o w . I feel better than I have done for three years past,, If Doan's Kidney Pills were well known all over they would do an immense amount of good." Sold by all dealers—price, 60 cents.

I X m o n t h s had gone by—six glorious and blissfully happy months, during which Mr. and Mrs. Harris kept their secret well, and Dick w a s all the . world to his wife Dorothy. D u r i n g t w o of these m o n t h s they remained abroad, living in the smaller t o w n s o n the Riviera, seeking no interests beyond themselves, but leading a quiet, peaceful life of love, of which neither had become the least weary w h e n Dick's leave was up and it was time for him to go back to his duty. Now, as the 43d were still quartered at Colchester, it became a question of some importance for them to decide where Dorothy should take up her abode after this. Colchester or its immediate neighborhood was, of course, a n impossibility, as her whereabouts might at any moment be discovered, and also Dick's real name. Dick suggested that she might go to Chelmsford and take rooms there for the time; but Dorothy had stayed more than once in that sleepy little town, and it was therefore almost as impossible as Colchester itself. S o finall y they agreed that there was no place in the world like London in which to hide oneself and have a good time all the same, and therefore they CL.me back to town during the last week of Dick's leave, and they took a little flat i n Kensington, just where Dorothy and Barbara could get on very comfortably without any servant, and yet could be near to good shops and a tolerably lively street. "I'm afraid you'll be awfully dull, darling," he said to her when they had taken possession, and his last evening had come, "because, of course, you won't know any one, and you are not at all likely to get to k n o w people." "I shall have Barbara," said Dorothy, smiling bravely. ^ - N "Tea, you'll have BarbaraXbut C a r " bara won't be much company for you," he answered. "I do hate all this conc e a l m e n t I hate leaving you at all, and I h a t e having to live, as it were, on the sly, and I'm afraid always that some one you know or one of the fellows wilt be s e e i n g you, and that they may g e t hold of a wrong idea altogether, and—and—I sometimes feel as if I should like to kill that old savage at Aylmer's Field." "But, Dick dear, nobody will see me, and If they do they will think I am Dorothy Strode still. Remember, I don't know many people in all the world, and none of your officers know me at all, and if they happened to see me with you they wouldn't think anything of it. Really, I wouldn't worry about that if I were you, dearest, and as for my being dull—why, I am never dull. I never have been used to having more than one person at a t i m e - Auntie all my life and now you. I shall get on*splendidIy with Barbara, and I shall always be able to look forward to the days w h e n you will be coming home." "And I shall come like a bird whenever I get the ghost of a chance," he cried, tenderly. "And I," cried Dorothy, "am going to m a k e a study of gowns. I have always been used to m a k i n g my ordinary gowns, and I shall have lots of time, and I am going to begin as soon, as you are gone. I am going to make myself some beautiful tea-gowns; they will make me look married and dignified— they will make you respect me, sir," "But you don't want to look married and dignified,*' h e cried, half alarmed. "Suppose y o u meet some one you know, and—" "I shall not be wearing a tea-gown, Dick," cried Dorothy, with a gay laugh. "Ah! no, no, of course not," he answered, relieved. "All the same, though, did you not tell me the other day that you had a cousin somewhere or other?" "Oh, Esther! Fes, but she," carelessly, "she is in Egypt." "But, m y dear child, she won't be in E g y p t always," he rejoined; "and if s h e comes back to London, which she i s sure to do " "By no means, Dick," interrupted Dorothy, Quietly. "Esther is just as likely to g o off for the s u m m e r to New Zealand or Finland as to come to Lon- n And she would not specially me u p if she did eome here. She is beautiful and rich and very Independent i n her mind, but she is six years older than I a m and thinks very jltttla of family ties. In any case, supposing that I met her in London t o - morrow, she would certainly not try to pry into my affairs, and even if I had your leave to tell her part of the truth she is perfectly safe. I assure you that you need never worry yourself for a single moment about my cousin Esther." So Dick was pacified, and the following day went to Colchester—not in a very happy frame of mind, all the same. "I hate leaving you, Dolly," h e said vexedly, "I hate it. I've a good mind to throw up my commission and trust to Fate and the old savage." "Dick, Dick!" she cried, "how can you be so foolish? Supposing that the 'old savage' did turn round on you and stopped your allowance, where would you be then? If you are in the army you have always the chance of going to India, and I don't k n o w that I would not rather be in India a s Mrs. Aimer than have these dreadful partr ings here." a "No, no!" he cried hastily, "I couldn't take you out there. I've always had a sort of horror of the east, and I would do anything to avoid running any such risk." So he went away with a lump In his throat which made "him glad that he was safe in a cab, leaving Dorothy to face the next week by heself—that is to say, except for Barbara, who was jubilant at having got her long holid a y o v e r and delighted to be at work again. To Dorothy Barbara at this time was a wonderful study of which she w a s never tired. For Barbara had been born and bred in the country, and had lived more years at Graveleigh Hall than Dorothy could remember, and her comments on town people and town ways were something more than amusing. "Ah! they did things in a queer sort of fashion at Halloway. My cousin Joe lives at Halloway—you know, Miss Dorothy—he's a plomber in quite a large way of business and has money in the bank and two children at boarding school learning French and music and Heaven knows what besides. Mrs. Joe used to go out every Saturday night to get her stores in for the week, a s she always said—for Sunday, I used to think. Never did I see such marketings! A quarter of a pound of but- - t e r - a a d - four fresh -eggs,—She regular prided herself on those fresh eggs. My dear,' said I one night to her, 'them eggs have been laid at least a week, and I doubt if I should be far out if I went as far as ten days.' " 'You see, Barbara,' says she, 'you've been used to a country life, with newlaid eggs, and gallons of milk and butter by the stone, and I dare say you feel a bit pinched-like here. But if I'd let myself go in butter and live on new-laid eggs at twopence-ha'penny eajch—well all I can say is, I should have had to rest content without any boarding schools or anything put by In the bank.' "I don't say, Miss Dorothy—Mrs. Harris, ma'am, I should say," Barin her ideas and strict in her uoUons, had been both tender and indulgent to her Uttle orphan niece, and had, moreover, a l w a y s been a clever and capable w o m a n with whom to associate. Then, about a country house there are a l w a y s so many different points of interest. Either the moles have worked at last from the meadow under the 1 hedge and below the, very best bit of the velvet lawn which is the very pride and* delight of your eyes, or the rats have suddenly acquired a pert measure of audacity and have scraped and bitten a new hole in the corn-bin or the newly, filled potato bags, or have gone further and found their way into the principal pantry and created a regular stampede among your servants. Or perhaps you catch one of the sinners in a new trap which cost five and sixp e n c e , ' a n d w h e n you go to see its wicked, hoary( old occupant you feel that if it never catches another, this one is well worth the money. Or if traps and, other means, consisting of horribly smelling poisons suggestive of the infernal regions, fail you, perhaps you have the professional rat-catcher up from the village with his box of sinuous, red-eyed ferrets, and then you have your revenge on the rats. I DRAW T H E L I N E , bara went on, in her w i s e s t tones— "that X should wish to go against my cousin Joe's wife in that respect— a thrifty wife is a crown of gold to a m a n that has to work for a living; but at e g g s that have never seen a hen for nearly a fortnight I do draw the line —to call 'em fresh, that is." Bui although on most evenings D o - rothy used to tell the old servant to bring her sewing and come and sit with her in tue pretty little drawing room, it must be confessed that at this time she found her life dreadfully dull, and a s each day went by she seemed to m i s s Dick in her daily life more and more. For though she had been used to a quiet country home and a quiet country existence, there had always been plenty to interest h e r Miss Dlmsdale, K somewhat eld fashioned, CHAPTER XIV. "I) H E R E is n o end to the interest which hourly crops up out of the unexpected in a country life Perhaps the speckled hen starts laying, or she shows unmistakable sign? of a stronger instinct of maternity than usual. Or one of the cobs casts a shoe, or a wind gets up in the night and tears a large branch off the great weeping willow which shelters the most easterly corn e r o f your garden, where- the—wind sweeps up the keenest, straight from the great North Sea. Or maybe the corner c . the shrubbery, where the mushrooms have always grown, nobody ever knew why, has suddenly bloomed out with broad, pinkish fungi, and you feel as if you had found a fortune, although you know perfectly well that the market value of what you have discovered is not, at fhe outside, more than threepence. Still, that does not lessen your pleasure in the least, and you carry them indoors and present them to every member of your household, your visitors If you h a v e any, your family, and, finally, to your cook, as if—well, as if you were a second Columbus and had discovered a new America. Then in the country you are a neighbor of everybody! If you live as Dorothy Strode had been used to live all jjour life, you know why Janet Wenham was not at church on Sunday, and why Elizabeth Middleham's girl left that nice place at Whittington, and how Elizabeth Middleham cried for days over it, and her girl's intention to take service in London and see life. And you know all about it when Mrs. Jones has her mauve dinner gown dyed chestnut brown, and how it is that the rectory curtains keep clean year after year, although white silk with a delicately tinted stripe would be ruined in three months in some houses. Yes, you know everything about everybody in the country, almost without knowing why you know it. But in town, in London town, it is all so different It is true when you get known in London, the gossiping is nearly as bad as if you were the center of a small village set; but to a girl situated as Dorothy was, London is a social blank. She knew nobody, and nobody knew her. She did not want to know any one, and apparently the inhabitants of the metropolis returned the c o m p l i m e n t Yet, nevertheless, it was terribly dull. Her pretty little flat was on the ground floor of the block of buildings which was dignified with the name of Palace Mansions, so she had people above and people below her. But Dorothy knew them not. There was a sweet-faced lady on the first floor immediately above her, a lady who dressed well and had a sweet-faced little child with her sometimes, and Dorothy fairly yearned over her and longed to say "Good morning" when they met in the common hall of the Mansion. But the sweet-faced lady did not k n o w the exact standing of Mrs. Harris, who lived at No. 4, and i a her dread of e v e n rubbing elbows with "a person" s h e resolutely made her eyes shone and her lips steel whenever she saw the slight, girlish figure approaching her. T h e n there w a s a lady a t No. 2— that w a s the basement, a sort of Welbeck Abbey in a m a t u r e . S h e , being a stout and buxom widow, whose grandchildren came running in at all times from a house on the other side of t h e H i g h street, might have ventured a kindly word even to "a person," but she never did. No, o n the contrary, whenever she' came across poor Dorothy she invariably sniffed, w h i c h was rude, to say the least ef i t (To be continued.) A N A F F L I C T E D M O T H E R .

My Dear Mother:—I received a couple of letters from you some time ago. I also answered them but of course I don't know whether they got out to t h e mail route or not. I was a little under the weather with rheumatism the first part of t h e month, but am all right now. We have had beautiful weather on the Yukon this fall and early winter, but. the past week . has been cold, with every indication of its getting colder. I t has been 40 degrees below—that is the coldest; but on account of such a beautiful winter last year, we naturally look for about 70 below before spring. Here in the far north a j e a r ago last winter they had weather that was 72 degrees below. "Grub" has been very scarce t h e past summer on account of the steamers not being able to get up the river, (low water at the artic circle.) I bought all my "grub" and other supplies early last spring, so have plenty of everyt h i n g f o r nearly a yea^. My partner and myself killed two moose M _ _ ^ ^ ^ ^ < three months ago.

A contemporary says "Will people think more and say less, do more and promise less, be more honest and lie le»s, tend to their own business more and their neighbors less, be economical more and extravagant less in 189S than in 1897? If so we shall have a prosperity that politicians never dreamed of. Jacob Read has proven the value of cooked beans in fatting cattle. Last week be sold two cows which be had been feeding one month. The cows had gained in this short time 310 pounds and he sold them at three quarters of a cent a pound more than he gave for them. The advance was one half of tbe h'rst cost of the cows.

Clement Scott, whose wholesale denunciation of the women of the stage produced 4 shock, has been rebuked so thoroughly that he Is half inclined to call himself Great Scott, with several exclamation points. It ought to be well understood by this time that the merit system has come to stay; that the only change possible is in the direction of its further extension. It is no longer a dream of theorists, but a very practical tact. I t s operation has proved of great value to the service and it has tended to relfere congressmen of a burden which at one time threatened to render them useless for purposes of legislation.

From t h e Text, Exodus 4 i » • • F o l l o w i : "And H l i 8Ut«r Stood Afar Off, to WltneM W % ' t Would He D o n e Ulm." to The announcement that the French government would take up the question of a reduction of the French Import, duty on wheat was a large factor In the recent ftse in wheat. The duty amounts to 36.8 cents a bushel. Today in France wheat is worth about $1.65 a bushel, and a repeal of the duty would send the American wheat to the highest point in years. Italy has already repealed a part of its wheat tariff, and the report is confirmed that even Russia is importing wheat. RINCESS THERMUT1S, daughter of Pharaoh, looking out through the lattice of her bathing house, on the banks of the Nile, saw a curious boat on the river. ft had neither oar nor helm, and they would have been useless anyhow. There was only oue passenger, and that a baby boy. But the Mayflower, that brought the Pilgrim Fathers to America, carried not so precious a load. The boat was made of the broad lea\es of papyrus, tightened together by bitumen. Hoats were sometimes made of that material, as we learn from Pliny and Herodotus and Theophrastus. "Kill all the Hebrew children born," had been Pharaoh's order. To save her boy, Jochebed, the mother of little Moses, had put him in that queer boat and launched him. His sister, Miriam, stood on the bank watching that precious craft. She was far enough off not to draw attention to the boat, but near enough to offer protection. There she stands on the bank—Miriam, the poetess, Miri- Theold~courthouse has been deeded to the village of Metamora by Woodford county on the promise that it would be kept up and cared for because of its interesting history. It is one of the most Interesting buildings in Illinois. It was constructed more than half a century ago and many of the leading men of this country have practiced in its rooms. Lincoln practiced there for several years and Adlai Ste- Tenson began his work as attorney in the old building. The eloquence of Ingersoll was often heard in its walls. The building was used as a cofcrthouse up to a year ago, When the county seat '• was moved to Eureka. answer was, "I am going down to bury Moses." And the Lord took this mightiest of men to the top of a hill, and the day was clear, and Moses ran his eye over the magnificent range of country. Here, the valley of Esdraelon, where the final battle of all nations is to be fought; and yonder, the mountains Hermon and Lebanon and Gerizlm, and the hills of Judea; and the village of liethlehem there, and the city of Jericho yonder, and the vast stretch of landscape that almost took the old lawgiver's breath away as he looked at it. And then without a pang —as I learn from the statement that the eye of Moses was uudlmmed and his natural force unabated—God touched great lawgiver's eyes and they closed; and his lungs, and they ceased; and his heart, and it stopped; and commanded, saying, "To the skies, thou Immortal spirit!" And then one Divine hand was put against the back of Moses, and the other hand against the pulseless breast, and God laid him softly down on Mount Nebo, and then the lawgiver, lifted in the Almighty's arms, was carried to the opening of a cave, and placed in a crypt, and one stroke of the Divine hand smoothed the features into an everlasting calm, and a rock was rolled to the door, and the only obsequies, at which God did all the offices of priest, and undertaker, and gravedigger, and mourner, were ended. Oh, was not Miriam, the sister of Moses, doing a good thing, an important thing, a glorious thing when the watched the boat woven of river plants and made water-tight with asphaltum, carrying its one passenger?

How carefully she watched the boat containing her brother! A strong wind often upset it. The buffaloes often found there might in a sudden plunge of thirst sink it. • Some ravenous water fowl might swoop and pick his eyes out with iron beak. Some crocodile or hippopotamus crawling through the rushes might crunch the babe. Miriam watched and watched until Princess Thermutis, a maiden on each side of her holding palm leaves over her head to shelter her from the sun, came down and entered her bathing house. When from the lattice she saw that boat she ordered it brought, and when the leaves were pulled back from the face of the child and the boy looked up he cried aloud, for he was hungry and frightened, and would not even let the princess take him. The infant would rather stay hungry than acknowledge any TTUSi* one of thA nnnrt. as mother. Now_Mir-I O«M1-»M-44H>-other Nil was ihat—brought that wonderful babe and his mother together, so that he was reared to be the deliverer of his nation, when otherwise, if saved at all from the rushes of the Nile, he would have been only one more of the God-defying Pharaohs; for Princess Thermutis of the bathinghouse would have inherited the crown of Egypt; and as she had *no child of her own, this adopted child would have come to coronation. Had there been no Miriam there would have been no Moses. What a garland for faithful sisterhood! For how many a lawgiver, and how many a hero, and how many a deliverer and how many a saint are the world t»ud the church indebted to a watchful, loving, faithful, godly sister? Come up out of the farm-houses, come up out of the inconspicuous homes, come up from the banks of the Hudson and Penobscot, and the Savannah, and the Mobile, and the Mississippi, looked down upon thorn will have to turn out to let them pass* the ohariotecr crying: "Clear the wayl A queen Is coming!" General Dauer, 0* the Russian cavalry, had in early life wandered off in the army, and tho family supposed he was dead. After he gained a fortune ho encamped oue day in Husam, his native place, and made a banquet; and among the great military men who were to dine, he invited a plain miller and his wife who lived near by and who, affrighted, came, fearing some harm would 4*e done them. The miller and his wife were placed one on earh side of the general at the table. The general asked the miller all about his family, and the miller said that he had two brothers and a sister. "No other brothers?" "My younger brother went off with the army* many years ago, and no doubt wa long ago killed1." Then the general said: "Soldiers, I am this man's younger brother, whom he thought was dead." And how loud was the cheer, and how warm the embrace! Brother and sister, you need aa much of an introduction t o each other as they did. You do not know each other You think your brother is grouty and cross and queer, and he thinks you are selfish and proud and unlovely. Both wrong! That brother will be a prince In some woman's eyes, and that sistera queen in the estimation of some man. That brother is a magnificent fellow, and that sister is a morning in Jucie. Come, let me Introduce you: "Moses, this is Miriam." "Miriam, this is Moses." Add seventy-five per cent to your present appreciation of each other, and when you kiss good morning do not stick up your cold cheek, ~wetfrom the" re centwashing, as though you hated to touch each other's lips in affectionate caress. Let it have all the fondness and cordiality of a loving sister's kiss. Make yourself as agreeable and helpful to each other as possible, remembering that soon you part. The few years of boyhood and girlhood will soon slip by, and you will go out to homes of your own, and into the battle with the world, and amid ever-changing vicls'sltudes, and on paths crossed with graves, and up steeps hard to climb, and through shadowy ravines..! D O I N G S O F C O N G R E S S . A FttMxrupMc Clfrcjptcle of t h e Acta of t h e Nation'* L a w m a k e r * . Senator Mason, of Illinois. \\na presented the following rfeii-hot Cuban resolution to the Senate: "Resolved/That t h e President of the United States be, and he it> hereby requested to notify Spain and the insurgents of Cuba tliut t h e war (so-called) must at once ceuse and be discontinued, and that the United States of America hereby declare and will maintain ponce on the Island of Cuba.'' The resolution was preceded by a preamble which st>t forth t h e terrible condition J of uirairs in Cuba, t h e inhuman deeds of thV* Spaniards, the sufferings.of the Cuban women and children, t h e ill-treatment of Americans at the h a n d s of the Spaniards, and also quoted the Republican platform of the last campaign, which sajd in part, " w e believe that the government of the United Stutes should actively use its iniluence aud good offices to restore peace and give independence to the Island of Cuba." Senator Allen, of Nebrasku. offered a s uii amendment to the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill the Morgan resolution for the recognition of the belligerency of Cuba. He said he hoped it would be speedily ucUjtV yUPon by the committee on . foreign relations so t h a t it would not v»>e defeased in the Senate by a point of order. ^1 r. Hale said it would still be "subject to such a point and Mr. 'Allen' gave notice that he would appie&l fVom any decision adverse to the amendment and test the sense of the Senate on the subject. Senator Cannon ottered the following resolution for the recognition of Cuban independence: "Whereas, The people of the republic of Cuba are. and of right ought to be, free and independent; and.

Madame Bonnefois is the daughter of hard working parents who sold toys at peripatetic fairs about Paris. When a young girl she began imparting her little, selfacquired education to the children of the fakirs, ropewalkers and showmen around her. With a little panorama of hej* own she managed to support her remarkable benevolence. Although she seldom stayed more than a fortnight in one town, she followed her proteges from place to place, setting up her v sehool, teaching the children to read and write, and ministering to their -bodily and moral necessities. Madame Bonnefois would have liked, doubtless, to command the philanthropic prospect from the summit. Palling that, she has set her little valley a-bloom for mankind. American competition m British ana .continental markets has become so keen and successful t h a t the London British Trade Review has been led to inquire, "When and where will the invasion stop?" Continuing, our contemporary say8: "The latest effort in this direction la to supply us with coal in the shape of Penhsylranto anthracite. The miners of the United Kingdom helped this article to get a footholu here during their late strike, but a tegular trade la now promiaed,aad Germany la named along with Great Britain as a damping ground, i t is asserted t h a t at present prices and present rates at freight American fuel can be exported to Europe at a small profit, and t h a t If the coal carrying steamers would out grant specially low rates in consideration of the assurance of steady cargoes, there would be no doubt whatever in the case. Some experimental shipments are, it is said, shortly t o be made, and the only thing remaining wHl be to aecure the specially low rates necessary t o certain auccea*. But can Atlantic freights be further la correct the thing la impossible, bat they mean t h a i • u t e m e n t for caly." iam, the sister, incognito, no one suspecting her relation to the child, leaps from the bank and rushes down and offers to get a nurse to pacify the child. Consent is given, and she brings Jochebed, the boy's mother, incognito, none of the court knowing that she was the mother; and when Jochebed arrived, the child stopped crying, for its fright was calmed and its hunger appeased. You may admire Jochebed, the mother, and all the ages may admire Moses, but I clap my hands in applause at the behavior of Miriam, the faithful, brilliant and strategic sister. "Go home," some one might have said to Miriam; "why risk yourself out there alone on the banks of the Nile, breathing the miasma, and in danger of being attacked of wild beast or ruffian; go home!" No; Miriam, the sister, more lovingly watched and bravely defended Moses, the brother. Is he worthy her care and courage? Oh, yes; the sixty centuries of the world's history have never had so much involved in the arrival of any ship at. any port as in the landing of that papyrus boat calked with bitumen! Its one passenger was to be a nonsuch in history —lawyer,, statesman, politician, legislator, organizer, conqueror, deliverer. He had such remarkable beauty in childhood that Josephus says, when he was carried along the road, people stopped to gaze at him, and workmen would leave their work to admire him. When the king; playfully put his crown upon this boy, he .threw it off indignantly, and put his foot upon it. The king, fearing that this might be a sign that the child might yet take down his crown, applied another test. According to the Jewish legend, the king ordered two bowls to be put before the child, one containing rubies and the other burning coals; and if he took the coals, he was to live, and if he took the rubies, he was to die. For some) reason the child took one of the coal a, and put it in his mouth, so that, his life was spared, although it burned the tongue till he was indistinct of utterance ever after. Having come to manhood, ' he spread open the palms of his hands in prayer, and the Red Sea parted to let two million fire hundred thousand people escape. And he put the palms of his hands together in prayer, and the Bed Sea closed on a strangulated host. His life so unutterably grand, his burial must be on the same scale. God would let neither man nor saint nor archangel have anything to do with weaving for«him a shroud or digging for hiaa a grave.—The omnipotent God let us see you, the Miriams who watched and protected the leaders in law, and medicine, and merchandise, and art and agriculture, and mechanics, and religion! If I should ask all physicians and attorneys and merchants and ministers of religion and successful men of all professions and trades, who are indebted to an elder sister for good influences and perhaps for an education or a prosperous start, to let it be known, hundreds would testify. God knows how many of our Greek lexicons and how much of our schooling was paid for by money that would otherwise have gone for the replenishing of a sister's wardrobe. While the brother sailed off for a re sounding sphere, the sisrter watched him from the banks of self-denial. Miriam was the eldest of the family; Moses and Aaron, her brothers, were younger. Oh, the power of the elder sister to help decide the brother's character for usefulness and for heaven! She can keep off from her brother more evils than Miriam could have driven back water-fowl or crocodile from the ark of bulrushes. The older sister decides the direction in which the cradle boat shall sail. By gentleness, by good sense, by Christian principle she can turn it toward the palace, not of a wicked Pharaoh, but of a holy God; and a brighter princess than Thermutis should lift him out of peril, even religion, whose ways are ways of pleasantness and all her paths are peace. The older sister, how much the wortd owes her! Born while yet the family was in limited circumstances, she had to hold aiid take care of her younger brothers. And if there is anything that excites my sympathy, it is a • ittle girl lugging round a great fat child and getting her ears boxed because she cannot keep him quiet! By the time she gets to young womanhood she is pale and worn out, and her attractiveness has been sacrificed on the altar of sisterly fidelity, and ehe is consigned to celibacy, end society calls her by an unfair name; but in heaven they call her Miriam. In most families the two most undesirable places in the record of births are the first and the last; the first because she is worn oui with the cares of a home that cannot ifford to hire help, and the last beause she is spoiled as a pet. Among .he grandest equipages that sweep through the streeta of heaven will be those occupied by slaters who aacri is the start—namely,at the father's and mother's knee, if they have inherited the kingdom. Then, as in boyhood and Sfrlhood days, we rushed in after the day's absence with much to tell of exciting adventure, and father and mother enjoyed the recital as much as we who made it, so we shall on the hiliside of heaven rehearse to them all the scenes of our earthly expedition, and they shall welcome us 'home, as we ^ay: "Father and mother, we have come But, 0 my God and Saviour! may therermlnus of the journey be the same | of Cuba on or -^be^re 4he v4th duy of March.' l&ft, the '^overnniet^t of the tJnJted ritAte9'4rill, tin t h a t date, recognize the" belligerency of t h e Cuban patriots and within 30 days thereafter assert the independence of the republic of Cuba. Double Murder at Skaguay. A double , murder occurred at Ska-" guay, Alaska. Deputy C S. Marshal J. M. Bo wen, formerly city marshal of Mount Vernon, Wash., and Andrew 'MetJrath, of. Cqncqrd. Ont.. "were, shot and brought our ohildren with and kUled in J alee $i*e> variety theater us." The old revival hymn described it wifth glorious repetition: "Brothers and sisters there will meet. Brothers and sisters there will meet. Brothers and sisters there will meet. Will meet to part, no more." I read of a child in t h e country who was detained at a neighbor's house on a stormy night by some fascinating uories that were being told him, and hen looked out and saw it was so dark le did not dare go home. The incident impressed me the more because in my childhood I had much the same I experience. The boy asked his comrades to go with him, but they dared not. It got later and later—seven o'clock, eight o'clock, nine o'clock. "Oh," he said, "I wish I were home! As he opened the door the last time a blinding flash of lightning and a deaf ening roar overcame him. But after awhile he saw in the distance a lantern, and lo! his brother was coming to fetch him home, and the lad stepped out and with swift feet hastened an to his brother, who took him home, where they were so glad to greet him,-and for a long time supper had been waiting. So may it be when the night of death comes and our earthly friends cannot go with us, and we dare no'. go alone; may our Brother, our Elder Brother, our Friend closer than a brother, come out to meet us with the light of the promises, which shall be a lantern to our feet; and then,we will go in to join our loved ones waiting for us, supper all ready, the marriage supper of the Lamb! by Kd ,Fay> a bartender.

Narrow Encape of F i v e Men. Five men started to return over t h e ice from their work on the Cleveland waterworks crib, which is rive miles out in the lake. When about a mile from land they discovered t h a t they were on a detached icefloe << which was being blown out into the lake.

As we all know it plays uu important part in t h e city, so why should it not play as important a part in the country? T h e reason it has not reached its proper development upon the farm is, 1 think, that this element is believed by people in general to be a complicated, mysterious force which responds only to the will of a professional hand. In reality however, 1 can safely tmy from my own knowledge, that electricity is one of the simplest forces of nature. When the automatic harvester tirst came into use, it required a skilled mechanic to j keep it in operation; now all farmers have mastered its details. Later the gasoline engine met with your approval and now its principles of operation are understood in general. But what is the automatic harvester with its complicated parts, the gas engine with its valves and gears compared in simplicity with the electric dynamo, which haft only only one moviag part, a piece of iron wound with copper wire. Yet this, if belted to some form of power, is sufficient if we take the simplest form, to produce electric lights. However to make t h e most convenient and cheapest form of light, it is necessary that we add to this equipment an electric storage battery which will store the energy at times when we have it to spare and which otherwise might be wasted, to give it out at any time as Light or power. This storage battery consists principly of two lead plates immersed in a solution of Sulphuric acid and water—explicit in its simplicity. It is by the use of this battery that I expect to show you how it is possible to furnish light and power for your buildings with practically no extra expense. T o u will agree with me that a gasoline engine is an assenlial thing upon the farm and We Are Dropping you a word of advice a b o u t colds and grip.

G. JACKSON Old World, the period of waste has long since passed by and it is now necessary to take advantage of every resource. In Germany for instance, use is made of every hy-product and every material that would otherwise go to waste. Refuse vegetable matter is worked into alcohol furnishing fuel for the farm engine. T h e day will eventually come in this country when the farmer will use his own waste materials for making himseif more independent. Now it it is known to operators and manufacturers of tras engines that it costs about as much to operate an engine u n d e r full load as it does on partial h.ad. You can therefore see if we had some method of keeping this engine fully loaded and of storing the extra energy, we would have something availabte that would he otherwise wasted. A dynamo and storage battery makes this a reality. Taking for an example a 3 H . P . engine would run 2 hours under i load for 2J cents per hour and to run the same engine full load would cost ij cents more. W i t h a storage battery and dynamo we could store, in this time :> H . P . of energy at a net cost of \\ cents and this i s a sufficient amount of electricity to light the average house for two days. Leaving allowance for depreciation in the battery and lamps, the interest on the investment of $150, it would bring our net cost of lightin? to the sum of about ?15 per year. You can then get up in the middle of the night and light any room in the house or the barn by simply turning a switch. You can throw all your old lamps and lanterns away and never wash lamp chimneys or smell kerosine again. T h e kerosine lamp is detrimental to t h e health of the family. Any kind of horning light exposed to t h e air requires oxygen to ke*p it burning. T h e oxygen is mJao required by na ia breathing and the mo*t of onr houses a r e C « i U a t t « mm P a m 4 .

L. _ PINCKNHT. - - - MICHIGAN ADVERTISING IN MOROCCO. According to a consular report from Tangier, the tomus oi business publicity most familiar in moat other parts of the world pr'jve quite ineffective among the Moors. The astonishing disclosure Is made that not only la the ultimate consumer in Morocco often unable to read In his own Arabic, but a picture signifies nothing to him. "It may be almost inconceivable that such ts the case," writes Consul Holt, "but it is a physical fact that the eye of the average Moor fails to And any meaning whatever in a picture." He relates how he has repeatedly shown to Moors photographs of themselves which they have tailed to recognize; "and this is true to an even greater extent as regards pictures of inanimate objects," with special reference to things for sale, says Providence Journal. How to coax to buy goods a potential consumer who can read neither print nor picture would evidently be a considerable problem for the modern expert in advertising. Samples and "demonstrations," indeed, are the only form of publicity which is at all likely to catch the Moor. The main machinery of exploitation as carried on in the United States becomes useless when directed at him. The mail order house, apparently, would stand no chance in Morocco. All the witchery of art in advertising as expressed in the ubiquitous catalogue wou'd be as completely wasted on the Moor as the Bense of an inscription from the Koran, decorating the wall of a Moorish vestibule, on the American tourist. News comes from Africa that the "Cape to Cairo railroad," once regarded as an "iridescent dream" of Cecil Rhodes, is now so far advanced that completion is actually in sight The finished part extends more than 2,100 miles from Cape Town, and lines in course of construction or contemplated will make the connecting links, so that within two or three years it is believed trains will run from Egypt through the heart ol the dark continent to the other extreme of Africa. What development will follow the opening up of the country by this means may be left to vivid imagination. Africa in some respects Is surpassing other sections in railroad progress. But the "three Americas" system is going bravely on. It will not be many years before passage can be taken by train from any point in North America to stations in the most remote part of the southern continent. There is no question that with peace and good order Cuba is bound to prosper. Despite all the criticism heard the island is making good headway in a material sense. The latest reports show that railroads are extending Into every part, mines are being opened, the fruit-growing industry is expanding rapidly and sugar and tobacco are bringing returns. Cuba is a fertile region of vast natural resources of various kinds. Even under the prostrating effect of war there was rarely a time when a large commerce was not being carried on. With tranquillity in the interior and free opportunity for capital and labor to work together, there is every reason to believe that, in a few years Cuba will possess wealth far exceeding that, of many countries greatly surpassing the island in size. Men weighing less than l.'iO pounds are said to have been discharged from certain railroad workshops. Men weighing more than 190, unless usually tall, have been "released" as street car conductors as too fnt to thread the thronged aisles. Men over 40 find it. hard to get job's because they are too old. Men under 25 find promotion difficult because they are. too young. Will the world's work presently all be done by men between 25 and ?».r> and of medium height and thickness? And what will all the others do? The earth is now scheduled to pass through the tail of Halley's comet next May. Persons disposed to get. nervous over it should find reassurance in the fact that at least one known case of the sort was experienced in the last century with no worse results than a hazy atmosphere during the transit, and a nicteeric shower or two. The supply of salt is said to be practically inexhaustible. To those who are gloomily anticipating the giving out of the world supplies this ought to bring fresh courage. PROTEST AGAINST FISHERY TREMY PIERCE A N D COMMERCIAL FISHERMEN SAY IT VIOLATES STATE RIGHTS. RAILROAD COMMISSION SLAPS KELLEY ON T H E W R I S T AND LETS HIM OFF. Th« Stat* Gets $10,000 More From Glazier's Sureties—Murdock Inter est* May Buy St. Joe Interurban Railway. Protest Against Fishery Treaty. State Game and Fish Warden Pierce stated that he and several commercial nshermen will go to Washington to protest to the senate committee on foreign ' relations against the proposed treaty with Great Britain, under the terms of which, he says, the control of fishing in the great lakes would pass from the state to the federal government. Warden Pierce contends that the federal constitution does uot grant the government authority to take coutrol of the Ashing, and that the treaty is in violation of the state's rights. If it is adopted, he says, he will endeavor to take the matter before the federal supreme court. Michigan to Get $4,000,000.

Sam Kelley Will Retain His Job. l>e»pite the positive statement thai Sam H, Kelley would lose his job as secretary of the state railroad commission because he appeared before the tax commission to argue for a reduction in the assessment of the Big Four railroad, the commission issued a statement that he would be retained, but would be censured and immediately dismissed for a similar action in the future, T h e statement of the commission seta forth the circumstances of the incident and says that Mr. Kelley has made affidavit that he received nothing from the railroad and acted entirely of his own volition because of his knowledge of conditions. The statement further says that the excellent service Mr. Kelley has rendered the commission was taken into consideration. State Gets $10,000 From Glazier's Sureties. A representative of the Federal TTnion & Surety company, of Indianapolis, paid into the state treasury $10,000 as ihe initial payment in an indebtedness of $57.:.00 on the bond of ex-State Treasurer Frank P. Glazier. This amount, added to what has been received by Treasurer Sleeprr within the past two weeks, leaves a deficit of $247,000.

C H A N Z Y 8 I N K 8 ; ONLY O N E PERSON 8 A V E D . Sole Survivor Raving Mad as Result of Experience; Three Americans Believed Dead. Taft Will Be Gueat of Honor at New York Reception to Receive Roosevelt— 15,000,000 Pounda of Butter Stored, i Driven helplessly from its course, in one of t h e wildest storms that has swept the Mediterranean sea in forty years, the French trana-AtlantIc Steamship Co.'s steamer, General Chanzy, crashed at full speed, in the d^ad ot night, on the treacherous reefs near the Island of Minorca, and all but one of the 157 persons on board perished. The sole survivor ie an Algerian customs officer, Marcel Redel, who was rescued by a fishing boat and who lies in the hospital at Cludadela raving as a result of the tortures through which he passed and unable 1O give an account of the disaster. In the ship's company there were 87 passengers, of whom thirty were in the first cabin. The crew numbered 70. The passengers of t h e Chanzy were mostly French officers and officials returning to their post in Algeria, accompanied by their wives and children; a few soldders, some Italians and Turks and one priest. It is believed that three American vaudeville players, hailing from San Francisco, were on board the steamer. Their names are Elsie Henry and Messrs. Drenda and Delymm. Bartlett to Lead Search. The National Geographic society, which resolved at a meeting held In Washington to send an American expedition in search of the South Pole, confidently expects ample financial assistance from outside sources to warrant the exploration. It is the plan of t h e society that the expedition be headed by Capt. Bartlett. who commanded the Roosevelt in Commander Peary's successful quest of the North Pole, and that the other members of the Peary expedition, except for Commander Peary, undertake the search for the undiscovered Antarctic "bottom of the e a r t h " The proposal Is t h a t the quest be made in the Roosevelt, already practically equipped for such an undertaking, and that the start be made from Coat's Island. Taft Slated to Greet Roosevelt. President Taft was given full details of the plans that have been formulated thus far for the reception to he tendered former President Roosevelt on his arrival in New York harbor some time between .lune lf> and 21, Col. John A. Stewart, president of the New York State League of Republican clubs and representative of the Republican club of New York city, discussed the matter with the president for half an hour or more, and told him t h a t the committee which would he placed in charge of the celebration undoubtedly would extend an informal invitation to him to be present, at. New York as the guest of honor. There is some doubt as to whether or not President Taft will be able to participate, but. it seems more than likely that, he will. In the cablegram received in New York Mr. Roosevelt stated that he would be glad to ac cept. a reception provided it was made a simple affair and was tendered on the day of his arrival. 15,000,000 Pounds of Butter Stored. Albert M. Read, secretary of the American Warehousemen's association at Washington, which includes 22 cold storage and refrigerating plants in various parts of the country, issued a statement endeavoring to show that foodstuffs were not. being hoarded in the cold storage plants and that no attempts were h< ing made by the warehousemen to conceal the quantities they had on hand. Mr. Read declared that the butter | and oggs stored in 20 of the cold storage plants in the association belonged to 2,44fi different, persons or firms, which, he says, indicates there would be great, difficulty in cornering those products. Mr. Read's statement of the products in storage in 30 of the houses shows l."i,000.000 pounds of butter In storage on Feb. 1, 1910, as against 2R.000,000 pounds on Feh. 1, 1000. There are. however, 124,000 more cases of eggs in storage this year than there were on Feb. 1, 1000. According to Mr. Read's figures there were more than ."iOO.000 rases of eggs in storage J a n . 1, and there were but 1S2.000 t.hertf on Feh. 1, showing that more than 200,000 cases were taken out of storage during January.

Uaele Billy had forgotten that there was a lecture, and when he was reminded that a returned missionary was going ta tell all about India at the church he did not seem over-enthusiastic. "I oughtn't to go anywhere tonight!" grumbled Uncle Billy. "1 ought to be doctoring my sick horse." "Well, you're not doing it, and you're not likely to do it. (Jet ready and go." Uncle Billy meekly obeyed. He sat patiently through the lecture, which was both interesting and profitable. At the close of his discourse the returned missionary said: "I will wait a few minutes now for the purpose of answering any questions that interested persoaB in the audience may wish to ask."

LEG A MASS OF HUMOR "About seven years ago a small abrasion appeared on my right leg just above my ankle. It irritated me so that I began to scratch It and it began to spread until my leg from my ankle to the knee was one solid scale like a scab. The irritation was always worse at night and would not allow me to sleep, or my wife either, and it was completely undermining our health. I lost fifty pounds In weight and was almost out of my mind with pain and chagrin as no matter where the irritation came, at work, on the street or in the presence of company, I would have to scratch It until I had the blood running down into my shoe. I simply cannot describe my suffering during those seven years, The pain, mortification, loss of sleep, both to myself and wife is simply indescribable on paper and one has to experience it to know what it is. "I tried all kinds of doctors and remedies but I might as well have thrown my money down a sewer. They would dry up for a little while and fill me with hope only to break out again just as bad if not worse. I had given up hope of ever being cured when I was induced by my wife to give the Cuticura Remedies a trial. After taking the Cuticura Remedies for a little while I began to see a change, and after taking a dozen bottles of Cuticura Resolvent, in conjunction with the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, the trouble had entirely disappeared and my leg was as fine as thfr day I was born. Now after a lapse of six months with no signa of a recurrence I feel perfectly safe in extending to you my heartfelt thanks for tho good the Cuticura Remedies have done for me. I shall always recommend them to my friends. W. H. White, 312 K. Cabot St.. Philadelphia, Pa., Feb. 4 and Apr. 13, 1900." Pitching a Curve.

The »torV opens with the Introduction of John Stephens, adventurer, a MassachvsettH man marooned by authorities at Valparaiso. Chile. Being interested in zrdatftg operations In Bolivia, he was denounced by Chile as an insurrectionist and tut a consequence was hiding. At his noted his attention was attracted by an Kuguabman and a young woman. Stephens rescued the young woman from a oruoken officer. He was thanked by her. Admiral of the Peruvian navy confronted Stephens, told him that war had teen declared between Chile and Peru and offered him the office of captain. He desired that that night the Esmeralda, a Chilean vessel, should be captured. Stephens accepted the commission. Stephens met a motley crew, to which he waji assigned. He gave them final instructions. They boarded the vessel. They successfully captured the vessel supposed to be the Esmeralda, through strategy. Capt. Stephens gave directions for the departure of the craft. He entered the cabin and discovered the English woman and her maid, Stephens quickly learned the wrong vessel had been captured. CHAPTER VIM.—Continued. She bent her head sllghtlj. "What vessel is this?" "The steam yacht Sea Queen of Liverpool, owned by Lord Darlington," she announced, soberly, her face and lips white. "How came you anchored off the government docks?" "IJy special permission of the presideate. We were towed into that berth early last evening, after the Esmeralda had been hauled up against, the quay to ship armament and stores." 1 drew a deep breath. "Could you tell me if it was known to others that you contemplated anchoring there?" Sho hesitated, her lips slightly apart, one hand pressed against her temple. "It is most important that I learn the exact truth," I urged, earnestly. "1 ask from no idle curiosity." "1 am not generally consulted in such matters, senor," she admitted, "but I believe we had been waiting several days for the opportunity to lake that position. This is as I have been told.'' Sho. seemed to be awaiting my explanation, striving to be courteous, yet. with her impatience slightly evidenced by the continual tapping of her toot on the rug. Rut I was not yet through with my questioning. "Were no officers left on board last sight?" Her gray ey*s widened. " O r l a i n l y yes; the first officer and the engineer were In charge when I retired. The others, with the majority of the crew, had gone ashore at, sundown to enjoy the fun. But why do you ask. senor? Are these not on board now?" "I regret being compelled to answer HO. Only the engineer, three of the harbor watch, and some Kanaka firemen have been found. I have discovered no trace of the first officer." "Then—then he must have rowed ashore with two of the m e n ! " she exclaimed. "How chanced you to be left here alone?" She hesitated, her hands clasped on the chalrback, her hosom rising and falling tremulously. Yet finally she farced her lips to reply, as though thus sjttfcing the quickest way of clarifying /tfcp situation. We were all invited to the palace of the presidente to listen to the speeuhos and view the fireworks. T^ord Darlington was greatly interested, and moat desirous of attending. The Unfortunate scene which occurred at e hotel early in the evening left e, however, with so severe i. headl i n e that I begged to be allowed to reg a i n hero alone with Celeste. At first both Lord Darlington and mamma refused lo depart without me, but when t t f preRidente dispatched his own steam launch to convey the party to the wharf, they decided it would be most, discourteous not to attend. iAird, Darlington's membership in the house of 'ords gives him a certain official recognition abroad which he does not care to have lapse. The yacht's captain accomj. nied them, and no dream of i'.11 befalling those left behind ever occurred to any one of us. O aeacr, tell me. what does it all .mean? What has happened?" " I presume I must explain," I said, regretfully, * although It 1» not a s easy task by any means. You will have confidence in me, Miss Doris?" "I shall endeavor to do so," she returned, an increasing coldness In her voice. "But 1 am Lady Darlington." "Your pardon; 1 supposed yuu to be that gentleman's daughter." The color swept in a wave of rich crimson into her cheekB, the gray eyes becoming darker. "Nevertheloa^s, M^nor, I am Lord Darlington's wire.' Even in that moment of embarrassment and perplexity, when I was scarcely less agitated than herself, this unexpected announcement of such a relationship came to me as a shock. Why It should, what difference it could possibly make, I did not in the least realize, yet I was instantly conscious of the disappointment, of deep regret. The revelation, thus calmly, proudly made, was so unexpected, so destructive of all my previous conceptions, as to seem an impossibility. Could this young, clear-eyed woman be indeed the wife of that grim, inactive, ancient peer of the realm? "You apparently question the truth of my words," she remarked, coldly observant. "It was only the natural surprise of a moment, Lady Darlington," I hastened to apologize. "The thought of your marriage had never before occurred to me." She looked directly into my eyes, her own plainly indignant, yet her "You—Why, You Are a Robber, a Pirate!" words strove to overcome the bluntness of my speech. "I do not feel, senor, that there can he any necessity for discussing my private affairs with you at present. Enough that I am Lady Darlington, and that I have patiently answered the rather impudent questions you have seen fit to ask. Now, Senor Estevan, kindly enlighten me as to the cause of your Intrusion into this apartment, and your presence on hoard the yacht." Her tone had changed to imperiousness. This was plainly a command, and, back of the fair face fronting me, I read strength of character and a proud insistence long accustomed to control. It was not fear but disdain that darkened her gray eyes. Her manner begged nothing—it pictured dominant command, the attitude of one who addresses a servant, expecting implicit, obedience. "Lady Darlington," I began, standing directly before her, and reverting to the use of English, so as to be certain of making my meaning sufficiently clear, "whatever explanation J may make cannot be pleasant, hut it shall be truthful. It is far better that you comprehend fully the situation we are in—your own peril, as well as my responsibility." Her expression changed from ahbitrary defiance to an amazement not untinged by a sudden development of fear as her hands grasped the chairback convulsively; but I went on steadily to !• ;> end. "I am not, as you naturally supposed, a Chilean, but a native of North America. My name is Stephens, 1 was in Valparaiso under most unpleasant circumstances, seeking vainly to escape from the country, and .hounded by the secret police because of my connection lately with a revolutionary movement along the Bolivian frontier. The merits of that affaii need not now be discussed, but I had become involved In It. through certain business connections, and had attained Valparaiso after much hard ship, seeking escape by sea. There I discovered every avenue closed against me, and was reduced to a desperate plight. I was in hiding from the governmental authorities when 1 risked almost certain discovery—last eventng. A little later—after you left the hotel—a man who I was led to believe represented the Peruvian government, approached me with a strange proposition, which, however, promised immediate release from my dangerous predicament, and, likewise, a suitable reward for the successful performance of a certain service. I am a sailor, and t h e particular d u t j required of me was to be performed upon the sea. I was aaked to assume the position of a Peruvian naval captain, incapacitated by sudden illness, in the surprise and capture of a Chilean war vessel, the steam yacht Esmeralda, then supposed to be lying at anchor, poorly guarded, In the outer harbor off the government docks. For that purpose I was presented with a Peruvian naval commission." My glance wandered from the motionless woman fronting me iu such white silence to Celeste, who had sunk back upon the bed, her blue eyes staring at me ucross the brass rail, evidently experiencing difficulty la translating my rapid English speech. "I had enjoyed but little opportunity of examining the particular vessel we were thus employed to capture, as I dared not leave the hotel except after nightfall," I continued, more slowly. "Yet I knew her place of anchorage, and that she was a steam yacht of some 700 tons burden, schooner-rigged, with lines promising great speed. Otherwise I relied entirely upon the knowledge of the officers under me. We boarded what I helieved to b« the Esmeralda soon after midnight, overcame* the small harbor watch with lit tie difficulty, captured the engine room, and, by holding a gun at his ear, persuaded the engineer to operate his machinery in our service. The very audacity of the attempt brought comparatively easy success. The main cabin had been secured by my orders when we first arrived aboard, and I came below just now, after all danger seemed far astern, to learn if any officers were hidden away here. I had examined all the other staterooms, finding them empty, and at last opened this door in my quest. Not until I saw you did I in the slightest realize that we were on board the wrong vessel, nor that we were engaged in anything except an honorable adventure of war." That the hasty details of my story both startled her and impressed her with its truth, was evident enough, yet her lips curled with contempt, and her eyes remained unbelieving. "How many men accompanied you?" "A crew of 20. with two officers." "Peruvians, I presume?" "No, madam," reluctantly, "hotchpotch dragged from the seven seas." Her expressive face darkened, her fingers clenching again nervously about the chairback. "And you really expect me to believe that preposterous tale!" she burst forth, indignation shattering all ordinary bounds of speech. "You must, indeed, think very highly of my intelligence. You—why, you are a sea-robber, a pirate!" My cheeks flushed at the harsh words. I could feel the surge of blood, yet I met her gaze quietly, "I have told you the exact truth, Lady Darlington, as I promised," I returned, seeking to speak calmly, "without any real hope that you would believe. Yet I want you to try. It is all bad enough as it stands, without endeavoring to make it appear worse." She leaned slightly forward, clearly impressed to some extent by the gravity of my manner. "Then prove it." "How?" "By steaming directly back to Valparaiso and delivering up this stolen vessel to its lawful owners." "That sounds simple enough, but do you realize what our probable fate would be?" She clasped her hands tightly, pressing them against her breast. "What do I care!" the contempt in her voice grown bitter. "You have done the evil, by your own confession; now you should pay the price. You rescued me once from insult, and I hold the remembrance of that act. in j o u r favor. Prove yourself worthy a woman's respect by making amends for this «ff»*4. Take t h e Sea Queen back now, before it is forever too late, and all I can do, or that my husband can accomplish, shall be done to save you from punishment. Prove to me that your words are not false." I hesitated, doubt and suspicion rendering me totally incapable of clear thinking before her insistent demand. Her face grew whiter as she marked my silence. "So you—you lied, then!" the cruel words faltered from between her lips almost unconsciously. "No, 1 spoke the truth," 1 answered, gripping myself sternly, "but I question my power." "Your power? Why, you just informed me you were in command." I advanced a step forward, my manner respectful enough, yet she half shrank back from my approach and brought the protection of the chair be tween us. "Perhaps I may never succeed in making you clearly comprehend my present position," I said, soberly, "yet I intend to try, because, in truth, I need your assistance as greatly a3 you need mine. Twenty minutes ago, Lady Darlington, it was true I believed myself to be in absolute command of this vessel. Now I gravely suspect whether I may not be a mere puppet, helpless in the hands of others. As I have already endeavored to explain, it was comparatively easy for me to mistake this yacht for the Esmeralda. They are very much alike, and I had enjoyed no opportunity for closely observing either. But it is impossible for me to conceive how the others of my party could have innocently made such an error. What project they may have had in mind I cannot even guess, but I believe now the Sea Queen was deliberately captured, and that I have been decoyed into the leadership of an act of piracy. If so, then I am only one man pitted against 20. What I may accomplish I have at present no means of knowing. I must see the others, endeavor to discover their Becret purpose, and learn whether or not I possess any real authority on board. Lady Darlington, do you at least comprehend what I mean? Do I make it clear to you that I am in a position scarcely less perilous than your own?" With lips parted and hands clenched over her heaving breast she stood silent, apparently deeply aroused by my earnest appeal, yet totally unable to repose full confidence in me. Yet her very hesitancy was to me an encouragement. "You certainly have every reason to doubt me at present, madam," I urged, with increased confidence, "yet I mean to prove myself worthy your trust by deeds rather than words. Will you consent to do as I wish, at least for the moment?" She did not appear to know what she had better do or say, her glance wandering in uncertainty from my face to the questioning eyes of the maid. The latter leaned forward with some eagerness. "Surely it is best to say oui, madame; ze man has ze look honorable," her hands gesticulating despair. "An' on ze whol' ship zere was no one else to help us." "As you say, Celeste, there is no choice;" and Lady Darlington's gray eyes again sought mine reluctantly. "I sincerely desire to repose complete confidence in you; to believe you worthy. What is it you. wish us to do?" "Merely to remain where you are, beyond the observation of others, until I can ascertain the exact truth of our situation. So soon as I learn this, I shall return with the information. Will you accede to this?" She lowered her head slightly, in silent acquiescence, and, still facing them both, I backed out of the room and closed the door. (TO BE CONTINUED.) T H E SHADOW OF D E A T H . v£ ,;n If You Would Have Friends Don't Annoy People by Comparison* That Are Humiliating. When you start in to say plain things to anybody be sure to use plain words and not idioms. Never use figures of speech when rebuking others, for in time your helpful rebuke may be forgotten, but the tang of the biting figure will never be forgotten, and perhaps not forgiven. For ex ample, you might want to tell a conservative person he was not up to the times in some particular matter, but don't call him a fossil -he would never forget it. There is a good deal in a name. Never call a person a crank—crank's a figure of speech. Simply say "You have an odd way of looking at things." This will please, as it suggests Individuality, and not eccentricity or worse. Picturesque language is only interesting when applied to things. People don't like It when applied personally. People don't like to be placed in a comical and spectacular light, and that's where picturesque language is apt to place them. Whatever a person's c h a n g e * - fstics may be don't call him a mule, or her a zany. The clearer the definition the deeper the resentment. Better not call people names, anyway—it only arouses a lot of feeling which is slow to simmer down. Nothing annoys a person more than to be called some ridiculous name—It doesn't seem to set well. In other words, use plain verbs, and cut out the nouna and adjectives, and you will not make many enemies.—Newark News. To Push Spain's Manufactures.

The Fight Against Tuberculosis. Interest in the anti-tuberculosis campaign now being waged throughout the United States is evidenced by the fact that in the year 1909 163 new anti-tuberculosis associations were formed, 133 tuberculosis sanatoria and hospitals were established, and 91 tuberculosis dispensaries were opened. Compared with previous years, this is the best record thus far made in the fight against consumption in this country. During the year 1909, 43 more associations for the prevention of tuberculosis were formed than during the previous 12 months, and G2 more hospitals and sanatoria were established. On January 1, 1910, there were in the United States 394 anti-tuberculosis associations, 386 hospitals and tuberculosis sanatoria and 205 special tuberculosis dispensaries. A Holiday Sermon.

You can have a bright light in the cow barn for night and morning milking, light in the hay mow with uo fear of burning up the barn, light iu the cellar, kitchen, parlor and bed room; light everywhere and all made from the power that would otherwise go to waste. Why is that there is such a scarcity of labor on the farm while the cities are overcrowed? Simply because conditions on the average farm are such that there is little inspiration for the sons or hired man to Btay. But put in a few conveniences and note how your hired man will stay with you and you sons will go to the Agricultural college and come back when their course is completed. There is not a farmers son iu a hundred who does not like machinery. Install something of this kind and let your boy learn to use it. It might seem a poor investment at first but when years have passed and you are no longer able to bear (be heat and toil of the day, it would be a comfort indeed to see a son take iu> the work while you could spend a part of your life in quituess and repose. But in order to enjoy these privileges it behooves us to keep abreast of the the times and make the uiost and best out of the opportunities that come our way, for it matters not iu life what art or profession we follow, time in the course of a few years is sure to greatly advance that art or profession in its usefulness to the world. Time alone would make no change but owing to the fact that man has been endowed with through aud by thinking he is enabled to lay mental plans and theorys whose practicability has mado this world a thousandfold better than it was in the ages that have passed. But to think that the earth has unveiled its last great mystery and life haB reached its highest ebb is I think, a great mistake. The paper was not, discussed to any extent but«%!r. Gardner auswered a few quHstion* in a mannar tbat showed tbat he has his hus;n«-«i well under hand and knows what be is talking about. George Van Horn read a paper on "Sheep Industry from a Labor aod Financial View,"' and was as follows: It has been said thnt all wealth must be dug out of the mines, fished out of the sea or producd from the soil. Of this wealth, that produced by the Sheep comes in most vital relation to life. Concrete may supplant steel, uiul electricity may Bupplant steam, but what, if you please, will take the place of this little animal that has always been mans best fnend, providing him with food that is relished by all people even the most delicate, and with clothing manufactured from the fibre grown on his back, thnt is worn by every person, old or young, rich or poor, on the face of this globe. Unabated high prices for wool and the meat products of sheep, offer tempting inducements for investment in breeding stock for the man who has no sheep at the present time. If these were the only inducements, then it would not be wise on the part of the would-be Shepherd to rush into the 6heep business unless he could find a bargain somewhere. The practice of winter fattening of western Lambs carried on RO extensively and has been « Jarge source if revenue to many Livingston county farmers and has proved a splendid manner in which to market the surplus hay and grain, is, I believe; to be doomed. For the reason that the Ranges are rapidly being cut up by reservation ;iiid settlement, so that TATE OP MICHIGAN, the prooate court for | m a n .v ot t h e ,arKe flocks that formerly prothe county of Livingston At a session of j duced our western feeders are a thing of •aid conrt. held at the probate office In the village ,k0 naat Ann,i,„, „ . „ , ,1 , . ., .r, ,. , .. . . i .. _.. . . t «e past.

Ajcain these 60 ewes will consume no more teed (not as much if ihey are &ne wools) and will yeild more income in dollars and cenU, than 5 average cows with about the sane amount invested. The fine wool breeds, I believe, are the safest clam of'sheep for the average farmer to invest in; as a whole the; are more rugged , stronger oonstituted, and fax longer lived than the mutton breeds. My messagi to the man embarking in the sheep industry ii to buy the beat possible, especially the aires, for he is half the flock. For illustration, suppose you invest 110.00 in a sire tbat produces you 30 lambs averaging 8 or 9 pounds of wool per bed at 30cts a pound, or $20.00 for a sire that will produce 30 lambe averaging 10 or 11 pounds of wool per hesd, leaving a balance of $18.00 in favor of the $20-00 investment on one clip of wool. Again if you desire to depose of jour flock the buyer would be a financer of poor ability and judgement, if he would not be willing to invest »2 shillings or $2.00 more per head in the well bred, staple, heavy wooled sheep, than the inferior ones. In couolu&ion, I would say to the wouldbe shepherd, that the time and money spent grinding grain, and the labor of cleaning stables and milking, is saved in the sheep industry. Aod I believe many of the perplexiug labor Jind financial problems of the farmer would be solved by the raisiug more of these little animals with the golden hoof. Albert Wilson—I think that sheep make more money for the farmer than any other department ot farming Mr. Eastman—could we not keep the sheep and cows as well? Mr. Van Horn—That is the plan we follow, keeping a tew cows as well as sheep. Are not the sheep as good for the land as cows? Is not the trouble that we try lo keep sheep on too short pasture? The next talk was on the "Planting and Care of the Corn Crop," by Mr. Taylor. Corn should have its place in the rotation of crops and should be pianton a good sod tbat has been turned under and well prepared. Should plant in bills unless th* field is clear of weeds M il moil be ttpT clean to do well. . Mud o*re should bo tAkeo in the •tltojtiqg of too. toed t^e} w?Of» kernel should grow. Should not pl.ut ao ear that had not boo* tested before baud. This can be done rttdily by taking the seed and' planting io a shallow box that has nails driven about the edge and string^ draws across each way thus marking tbo bos off in squares. Number from the top and keep the ears fromfwhiob tbe seed has been taken in a row on a shelf and number accordingly, or in any other manner that yon can keep them separate. There is more in the selection of seed than in any one thing about being a successful corn grower, dhould want not more than 4 stalks in a bill tor corn, and never teas than three if possible. I am a firm believer in tbe shredder and silo, as you can prepare to care for your stock with good wholesome food 'during the drouth of July and August. The shredder may not do a very good job of husking but it pays to shred tbe corn crop. "* Tbe depth to plant depends on the quality ot soil. The lighter the soil tbe deeper. Bel ieve in dragging alter corn is planted and up to tbe time it is about two inches high. The weeds must uot get tbe start and earlf cultivation may help destroy tbe cut worm. Believe corn should have a good ear even for the silo and should just be glaxed—earlier than this it will sour too much and rot. James Harris gaye a very interesting talk on High Cost of Living. He was not willing to admit that the cost of lo^d products were too high! Prices are good and there is no question as to the state of affairs today but what they are good also.

At the close of bis talk be was asked a few questions and was ready witb answers showing that he was not only a student of the affairs of tbe day but bad his "think tank-" full of matters pertaining to tbe wellfare of farmers and tbe country in general, and bad an interesting way of telling tbe people bis thoughts. Michael Roche red a caper on "Tbe Dairy Cow/wbich follows: Aa a beginner at farming I know of n o style or branch of farming that is so interesting to me as dairying, the dairy cow and the dairy feed which a r e auch important factors i n the the buainetw, are what 1 wish to apeak o f today. A b o u t ten years ago, while teaching. 1 seldom missed an opportunity t o visit the barn of each farm house where I boarded and to visit with the farmer while he milked and uever failed to ask all the questions h e would answer, sometimes a few more. D u r i n g these visits I found out that there were many kinds of cows and many more kinds of feed and care or rather . lack of care. I found that while some kept their c o w s in the stable every cold or bad d a y and fed ground feed, bran, e t c . , others left their cows out every day, fed stalks out of doors and a little corn i n the ear because ihey raised it aud therefore must feed ii, it is needless to nay that the former was satistied and had some cows giving 40 l b s . per d a y , the latter were principally engaged i n finding fault with dairying, a n d d i d n e t know how much their cows g a v e , or seem to realize that they could h a v e gotten as much milk from one-half as many cows with one-half the work a n d have h a d ;i profit for.their work instead of feeding at a loss. • . S o m e three years ago I began to weigh and ship milk at A n d e r s o u a n d also bought a few cows, a n d since that time I have been more in touch with the dairy interest. H a v e bought and millked a good many different cows, some good, some A|ir aud Bume very poor, these latter d i d n o t stay long. My own ezperieuce, as well as m y talks with my neighbors convince me that for selling milk at the coudensary the Holstein cows are far ahead of any other kind owned around here. H o w e v e r I do uot intend to try and choose t h e kind of cows for each one to buy, but d o most earnestly insiut that having once chosen the kind of cows that you wish to keep d o not let a few dollars difference in price keep y o u from buying the very best cows of the class that can be found, a n d having bought a few good cows do n o t be content to use any scrub sire that is haudy but rnther i n - vest in in a good sire of t h e chosen class, as all agree that the nire is one.half the herd. I have no doubt thit many of my hearers are milking now, or have been milking cows that do not g i v e more than 30()0 o r 4000 pounds of milk per year, now those who are milking this class of cows d o n o t kuow, or at least d o not tell, what such cows giye, and I do not blame y o n , but I believe you are at fault if y o u d o not weigh such cows milk aud know what they are g i v i n g , aud if the amount is not satisfactory yuu are not fair to your own interest, or if said cow i s not showing y o u a profit if she is not sold at once. I take it for granted that no one present is in tbe dairy business for pleasure a l o n e , if i h e y were they would be justified i n keeping any kind o f a c o w that pleased them and I would have n o objection i n saying the things that I a m about to say which I feel will off e n d , s o m e , and I h o p e will cause each one here to take a broader view o f the dairy business, a n d will g e t for our patient friend, the dairy c o w , much better treatmeut than she has h a d . 1 believe that we can all agree that the object oj dairying is to enrich oar soil, improve our nnanoial condition and last acd best Of alt to furnish healthy and contented employasent for oar tana hors and girls where they can b* w}ta their own people aod not driven to seek eaplajrinefft in the cities, and he at the mercy of the offtee life, the low resort or the gilded ssleos, f o r i folly believe that oat beet men and women have ooave sad will corns ia the tutor* from oar farm homes, for they have mors chance to develop and e s s find some noetal work which wilt keep them oat of mischief and later Irons bad habit* for tha Idle boy or girl ia much more apt to go wrong. If you wish to succeed as a dairy man choose yoor breed, learn how good the best cows of that breed are; learn how t bay wars bred; learn how they wars led sad eared tor and. tasn go and do Ukewisa, only do It a little hettst.

The monuments, statues and other memorials whereby the first president has been given homage at the American seat of government are designee, primarily, of course, to honor the individual tor hla whole notable career. At the same time the venatillty of the many-sided Washington la emphasised Ueoif* Waaftington.. T^a atgtue for yemrs occupied the most conspicuous place on the plasa of the United State* capttol, but Utterly U* baV been removed to the Brakhsontaa mstKutloo. The figure of Washington, scantily arrayed, in the togs of s Romas senator,, lav represented tn a sitting posture. The left hand clasps s short sword and the right hand points toward heaven, on the granite pedestal la inscribed the famous tribute of Gen. Henry Lee: "First in War, First la Peace, and First tn the Hearts of His Coon try men." The history of this statue dates from the year 1852 when congress authorised the president to employ tbt sculptor Greenough to execute a full Itfagth statue. The figure, which weighs fully 21 tons, was chiseled In Florence, Italy, and the problem of bringing It safely to America proved * most per* plexing one. Commodore Hull was sent with a man-of-war to get the work of art, but' he found that It would he necessary to rip up the ship's decks in order to place the cumbersome burden in the hold, and he objected to doing this. Finally, a merchant vessel had to be chartered for the task and partially reconstructed. The statue was first placed in the rotunda of the capltol, but later was placed on the plasa. The figure, which cost Uncle Sam more than $42,000, has alwaya been the object of more or less criticism because of the lack of drapery. In Washington Is one of the few horseback monuments ever erected to the memory of the foremost military ' : » "• tun OF MADRIZ NEAJL \ Greenough's Famous 8tatua of George Washington. by some of the memorials which, by their character, call to mind, respectively, bis invaluable services as a citizen, as a soldier aod as a statesman. Ranking first, not only among the tributes to the new world liberator, but also In ail probability, among all personal memorials tbroughout the world Is the great Washington National monument—that imposing shaft of white marble rising on the banks of the Potomac river to bespeak the gratitude of the whole American people. This monument, which is the highest masonry structure in th€ world, and doubly impressive In tta simplicity, la an obelisk and has a height of 655 feet. The foundation is 36 feet deep and the wails of the colossal structure are 15 feet In thickness at the bottom, gradually tapering to a thickness of 18 inches at the top. Gen. Washington was yet living when there first originated the plan for providing this supreme testimonial to bis military and political services. As early as 1783 the congress of the United States resolved to erect a marble monument to the nation's idol, and It is Bald that Washington himself selected a site the spot where the monument now stands. The project was revived from time to time after the death of Washington, but it was not until 1833 that practical steps were taken to carry out the undertaking. Funds were raised by popular subscription, and In 1848 the corner stone of the towering structure was laid with due ceremony. In 1855 the funds which had been contributed were exhausted, the shaft having at that time attained a height of 162 feet. Work ceased and the project was at a standsail for more than a score of years, or until 1878. when the national legislature appropriated money to complete the masonry masterpiece. The completed monument, which represents an expenditure of more than $1,300,01)0, was dedicated a quarter of s century ago. on February 21, 1885. One of the most famous of the memorials and one which has had a moat remarkable history is Horatio Greenough's nerolc statue In marble of leader ol his day. The equestrian statue of Washington, conspicuous even in a city that boasts more such statues than any other community on the continent—was produced by Clark Mi 111 and was cast from cannon cap- Th« Washington National Monument on ths Banks of the Potomac tured from the British in ths war of 1812.

Stats department officials are Interested in the news from Managua that Matagsips and HOMO have been captured by the revolutionists' army under Gen. Chamorro. This interest especially attaches to the capture of MatagaJpa, as in all probability say further cause for apprehension on the part of Americans In that important coffee growing section of Nicaragua has. been removed. The capture of the steamer Managua by sympathisers with the revolutionists is regarded s i a serious loss to the Madris government, at it is believed he had depended upon this steamer and one other, the only two of any consequence on Lake Nicaragua, to transport his army, now on the east coast of the lake, back to Managua, in case of need. The whole situation appears to be distinctly in favor of the revolutionary forces, and it Is believed by the officials here that the end of the Nicaraguan government under Madris is rapidly approaching.

WINTER FEED FOR THE BEES FUTURE QF THE F U X CROP • > I » I » • »1 Where the Colony Has Not Stored Enough Honey to Last It It Well to Give Them Candy. One of the best winter feeds, except sealed honey, for bees Is plain sugar candy. If it is found that a colony of beet hat not stored enough honey to keep them over winter it will be well to give them some candy for feed until blossoms come next spring. Candy for bee feeding Is made simply of sugar and water. To make it, dissolve granulated sugar in water and heat tbe mixture in a porcelain or granite vessel until It boils. Keep up a good steady fire, but do not scorch the syrup or it will be of no use for bee feed. Stir the mixture until all the sugar is dissolved, but cease sirring after it is all dissolved. Greatest care should be taken when the syrup is cooked nearly enough, for It is then that scorching is likely to be done. To determine when it has boiled enough, pour some of the syrup Into cold water. If It hardens so that it is brittle and will easily break into pieces by bending, it has become candy and is ready to be taken off. It Is then poured Into greased shallow tin pans and formed into thin cakes. The cakes will have the appearance of rock candy if the work bas been done right When done, these candy cakes may be hung in tbe hive for the bees to feed upon. Some bee keepers mold the candy In the regular hive frames and suspend it in sections ss the natural comb. U may seem extravagant to feed bets on candy when they ought to have made enough boney for themselves, but some seasons it la Impossible tor a colony of beeB to gather enough honey for a full supply, hence they perish of hunger before the coming of blossoms. Many a colony of bees dies during each winter and the -wise farmer or bee keeper will see to it that each colony he keeps Is well fed during the cold months. When a season of abundant honey-bearing blossoms comes the bees will pay back in riches more than a hundred fold.

It Has Never •sen Permanent Indus* try in United States end May Yet Die Out. Flsx-growlng would never become 1 permanent Industry la tbe United States. Tbe farm methods have been very crude and the results Irregular. In each locality Is which It has been introduced ft yielded well, but later gradually failed until tbe grower, meeting with loss, abandoned it entirely. it bas been looked upon s s a short* lived crop, suited only to new lands, snd little attention hss been paid to tbe improvement of the race or strain of tbe seed. Abandoned In tbe eastern states, the flax crop has gradually moved westward until now It 1s practically making its last stand In tbe Dakota* and Minnesota. Tbe acreage of tbe crop for seed alone has been Increased In new lands of tbe northwest so thst the annual value of tbe crop of North Dakota alone is about double that of all the '"""es in which flax was raised for any /ear previous to 1890. North Dakota now raises between 14,000,000 and 16,000,000 bushels or seed, snd it tells at about an average •mw * Samples of Flax. of $1 per bushel on the farm. The total seed production in the United States Is from 25,000,000 to 27,000,000 bushels. If the farmers of the northwestern states will pay more attention to this crop they will find it to be probably as profitable as any other that can be raised on their soils. Professor H. I* Bolley, botanist of the North Dakota station, has made an exhaustive study of flax cultivation and his conclusions are that, generally speaking, the flax crop may be said to grow best in the colder parts of the temperate regions. Seed may be grown on soils under conditions similar to that of successful spring wheat cultivation, while the fiber of the crop is at present produced in the regions of heavy rains and somewhat colder, cloudy skies. The crop also possesses other general capabilities or varieties which allow of the production of farm crops of seed flax, at leaBt to the southern limits of winter wheat producing regions. It has been thought that flax demands a very fertile soil, but Prof. Bolley's experiment Illustrates that It ft is not particularly hard on the soil, in that in some parts of the Red River valley the soil is too 'fertile for the growth of a flax crop when atmosnherelc soil moisture is normal. He finds, in fact, that much better crops of wheat may be raised after flax than after wheat. Too much moisture throughout, the growth season results in weak and imperfect stems and poor seed. Severe drought in time of flowering or seed ripening is also harmful. It is necessary, therefore, to provide a type of soil which will maintain to the last sufficient supply of moisture. Supplied with subsoil mixture flax will stand very severe heating and drought. The illustration shows several bundles of flax, all grown from the same variety of seed, sown on the same day, upon the same plot, Rhowing the evil effects of Irregular planting depths: I. Depths of planting respectively one-half inch, one inch, one and onehalf Inches, two and one-half inches and three inches. 2. Crop planted evenly at one inch depth. Forcing Rhubarb. The forcing of rhubarb has been much practiced within the last few years. The Gardener's Chronicle says a family supply of rhubarb may he had by forcing the roots in the cellar. Dig the roots late in the fall and allow them to freeze before placing them in a frost-proof cellar. Bury them to a depth of four inches in moist sand. The plants thrive best in total darkness and if the compartment in which they are growing is comparatively small a lighted lantern kept in the bed will give heat enough to facilitate a rapid, even growth. In no case should one attempt to force the plants without first freezing them. Use for Broken Limbs. The broken down limbs can easily be trimmed into pole wood and converted profitably into juggles for the heater, while the brush neatly pilled into some distant corner may be converted into ashes, thus removing from the midst of the fruit bearing trees many Injurious insect pests which were harboring and waiting for next season to come.

FARM NOTES Wage rates for farm labor reached their highest point in the history of this country in 1920, as national averages. As ascertained by the Bureau of Crop Estimates, United States Department of Agriculture, the average wage rate for labor hired by the month was $46.89 with board, and $64,95 without board; for day labor at harvest, $3.60 with board, and $4.36 without board. War conditions greatly accelerated an upward movement of farm-wage rates that began after 1895. The rate of that year for Wrings without board wss $17.69 aa an average for the United States, and no other year in the1 record of the bores* extending back to 186T bad a lower rat» except 1879 with $16.42 By 1902 this wage rate had increased te $8fc H, by 1014 to 29.89 followed by a f f i r m s , with no evidence of war WBsH^W»eie A #•••? ^a*sjs> ^sfcsy evfyWevaves^es; j#^sa#aaass^sr as a small beginning in the next year, 1916, when the wage rate was 82.98.

EORGE WASHINGTON was a much-quoted .statesman In the long debates in the senate of the last congress on the League of Nations. The influence of his life, acts and utterances Is Increasing with our better understanding of the character of the "Father of His Country." And it is a better understanding. For the earlier literature and history relative to him threw about our milli. »^ fc-^la tu < , i m mff:**. •* - . ^ ^ J ^ . * ! ^ ' - 'ii^^^^SS^^^^"^ ft •4 * ' . * ' . . . . I <?* hardly seemed a human being. There was a gasp of astonishment wThen glimpses of the real George Washington began to appear. Nobody's feelings were hurt. The American likes his national heroes red-blooded. The public was soon asking for more of the same, thank you. It got more. *And when at last It became evident that George Washington had the makings of "a regular fellow," if all the truth were known, the American people were simply tickled to death and the hero of the cherry-tree fable forthwith took his rightful place in the grent American heart. Now we know a lot about the real George Washington, and every now and then something new sees daylight. There Is now no danger that the awesome mantle of superhuman perfection will ever again be thrown over him. The Americans of the future can know the real man. And this is the added Joy of revelation. The disclosure of the man's real nature but adds to his greatness. With each disclosure the marvel of the greatness of the man grows. That he could be so human and so great adds to his country's pride in him. There is an old saying that no man is a hero to his valet. It Is one of those self-evident truths that we accept instinctively. Yet it Is a safe wager that the written words of Tobias Lear are true. After Washington's service ns President and his return to Mount Vernon, his .correspondence became so burdensome that he employed Tobias Lear, a native of New Hampshire and a graduate of Harvard, as nis secretary. "George Washington Is, I believe," Lear wrote after two years at Mount Vernon, "almost the only man of exalted character who does not lose some of his respectability by an intimate acquaintance. 1 have never found a single thing that could lessen my respect for him. A complete knowledge of his honesty, uprightness and candor in all his private transactions has sometimes led me to think him more than a man." Uncounted Americans have hugged themselves for sheer joy upon reading that General Washington got so excited over the disgraceful retreat of Gen. Charles Lee at the beginning of the battle of Monmouth (1778)% that he cursed Lee to Ms face till "the leaves curled upon the trees," and then rode his beloved white horse to death In averting disaster. George was the original Sheridan at Winchester that day. That George Washington could see red and swear so completely that the army was satisfied Is pretty good Stuff In most parts of the U. S. A. The truth is thrt George was considerable of a fighter, and it's a good guess that he wasn't exactly unhappy during the scrap. He got his preliminary education fighting Indians—and thla'old world never saw a better nut' cozttcxtmga? -JIT- C&I&F' ural fighter than the American redskin. He admitted then that he found "something charming" in the sound of the bullet's whistle. In the Virginia state library at Richmond Is a letter from him to Governor Benjamin Harrison of Pennsylvania under date of May 8, 1782, which says: "No nation has ever yet suffered, In treaty, by preparing, even in the hour of negotiation, most vigorously for the field." Here's Theodore Roosevelt's "Speak softly and carry a big stick." The old idea of George Washington used to be that he hadn't a glimmer of humor in his makeup. Don't you think it! In the Virginia collection is a letter from George to his brother John, written from Fort Cumberland, after Braddock's defeat, in which he says: "Dear Brother: As I have heard, since my arrival at this place, of a circumstantfal account of my death and dying speech, I take this early opportunity of contradicting the first, and assuring you that I have not as yet composed the latter." Here's Mark Twain's famous telegram : "The report of my death Is greatly exaggerated." When Thomas Jefferson ivas governor of Virginia Washington wrote tc him in high-flown verbiage, teeming with apologies and references to "your excellencies desires," beseeching the immediate shipment of flour and clothing for the soldiery, or the money with which to procure the same. Accompanying this official document, however, there was a personal note which began: "My Dear Thomas." In it Washington suggested that Jefferson send "a quantity of liquor" to him. "The men are deserting by hundreds," he landed. Then, jestingly: "If somethfhg is not done in this direction forthwith I myself shall be tempted to desert, also." Washington, as an ardent lover Is something new, again. This side of the man is not in evidence In the middle- aged husband o r Martha Washington (the widow Custis). Yet they tell ^ Williamsburg that George offered his hnnd when he was a young surveyor to Mary Cary—and was turned down cold by the proud beauty. Later, when the brilliant young officer came back riding at the head of his men, Mary swooned away. Then there was Mary Philllpse, an exquisite damsel of Fairfax county, whom he wooed most vigorously. In the Virginia collection are two letters by Washington which speak plainly of two other love affairs. One. written in 1749. to "Dear Friend Robin," speaks of his "passion for your Lowland Beauty." Both friend and sweetheart are unknown. Another letter, written in 1752 to William Fauntleroy of Virginia says: "Sir:—I should have been down long before this, but my business in Frederick detained me somewhat longer than I expected, and immediately upon my return from thence I was taken with a violent pleurise which has reduced me very low; but purpose, as soon as I recover my strength, to wait on Miss Betsy, in hopes of a revocation of the former cruel sentence, and see if I cannot win any alteration in my favor. I have enclosed a letter to her." George Washington was the John D. Rockefeller of his day—so far as wealth goes. John D. once said he would rather lose a thousand dollars than be cheated out of a nickel. Well, George evidently felt the same way; at least his letters so indicate. Yet he accepted no pay as a soldier, and spent $72,000 (at least) of his own money. He was generous as he was keen to get w h a t ' w a s his. He delighted in a good bargain. As for efficiency, it was his middle name. There never was a* better farmer and business man, and Mount Vernon was a model plantation. George Washington proved himself a regular fellow in these ways, among others: He played cards, and ordered a dozen packs at a time; one of his accounts contains the item: "Lost at cards, 8 shillings." He drank wine, beer, rum and brandy—always in moderation. He loved horses, and imported fine stock. He was fond of fox hunting; his pack of fox hounds was famous; he wore the latest and best in hunting clothes. He loved to fish, to shoot ducks and to hunt deer. He wore good clothes, and Insisted upon having them to his liking in every detail. In short, the real George Washington was not the mythical Washington who has been foisted on the American school boy of past generations._ The marvel is that so human an American was ever so mummified in a land like America. They couldn't do It to George when he was alive. And it will never happen again. *m<*——*i*l^ W i l l ' ! • ' • • » » ". •" ».P ' STOP BOILS-PURIFY BLOOD * His Blood Was Bad, Had Boils- Felt Weak, Bad.

The late William Dean Howells, in the days when he was a magazine editor in New York, liked to visit the Bohemian low-priced theaters, and when he went to the opera he always sat in the.gallery. "In the gallery/' he said one day, 'the people listen to the music Intensely. They don't laugh and chatter as they do downstairs. In the gallery, too, they keep their seats till the performance is over. Downstairs they put on their wraps and leave in the midst of the glorious final climax.** v Mr. Howells chuckled.

"Jim," she said, after a while, when ihe' notse of the milking was drowned In the creamy froth, "I'm getting near t h e end of this kind" of thing. Father's getting more and more set on money all the time. He thinks I should slave along too to pile up more beside what lie's got already, but I'm not going to do It much longer.

The mother plied her needles fn silence. "Slip away to bed, Beulah," she said at Jength. "I will wait up for a while.**' Late in the night the girl heard heavy footsteps In the kitchen aud bursts of loud but indistinct talking. CHAPTER V. Notwithstanding Hams' late hours the household was early astir the following morning. At five o'clock Jim wag at work In the stables, feeding, rubbing down and harnessing his horses, while Allan and his father walked to the engine, where they built a fresh fire and made some minor repairs. A little later Beulah came down to the corral with her milk-pails, and the cows, comfortably chewing where they rested on their warm spots of earth, rose slowly and with evident great reluctance at her approach. The Harris farm, like fifty thousand others, rose from Its brief hush of rest and quiet to the sounds and energies of another day. Breakfast, like the meal of the night before, was eaten hurriedly, and at first without conversation, but at length Harris paused long enough to remark. "Riles Is talkln' o' go In' West." "The news might be worse," said Beulah. Riles, although a successful farmer, had the reputation of being grasping and hard to a degree, even In a community where such qualities, in moderation, were by no means the farm here. I wish he'd unwrap It a oit and let it peek oat at times.* "I'm not so sore. Fm beginning to think if s the money that's in the farm your father's heart is set on. If the money was to be made somewhere else his heart would soon shift Here I've slaved and saved until I'm an—an old woman, and what better are we for It? We've better things to eat and more things to wear and a bigger bouse to keep clean, and your father thinks we ought to be satisfied. But he isn't satisfied himself. He's slaving harder than ever, and now he's got this notion about going West Oh, you'll see tt will come to that He knows our life isn't complete, aad he thinks more money will complete It Ail the experience of twenty years hasn't taught him any better." Beulah stood aghast at this outburst, and when her mother paused and looked at her, and she saw the unbidden wells of water gathering In the tender eyes, the girl could no longer restrain herself. With a cry sbe flung ber arms about her mother's neck, and for a few moments the two forgot their habitual restraint and were but naked souls mingling together. "Your tather is hungry," said the mother. "Hungry—hungry, and he thinks that more land, more money, more success, will fill him. And In the meantime he's forgetting the things that would satisfy—the love that was ours, the little devo—Ob, child, what am I saying? What an unfaithful creature I am? You must forget Beulah. you must forget these words— words of shame they are!" "The shame Is his," declared the girl, defiantly, "and 1 won't stand this nonsense about homesteadmg again—I just vvon t stand It If he says anything more about It I'll—I'll fly off, that's what F1I do. And I've a few remarks for him about Riles that won't keep much longer. The old b a d g e r - he's at the bottom of all this." "You mustn't quarrel with your father, dearie, you mustn't do thaJt." "I'm not going to quarrel with him, but I'm going to say some things that need saying. And if it comes to a showdown, and he must go—well, he must, but you and I will stay with the old farm, won't we, mother?"

Meanwhile other things were transpiring. Harris bad returned from town the night before with the fixed intention of paying an early visit to the Farther West He and Riles had spent more time than they should breasting the village bar, while the latter drew a picture of rising color of the possibilities which the new lands afforded. Harris was not a wan who abused himself with liquor, and Riles, too, rarely forgot that Indulgence was expensive, and had to be paid for in cash.. Moreover, Allan occasioned his father some uneasiness. He was young, and had not yet learned the self-control to bo expected In later life. More than once of late Allan had crossed the boundary of moderation and John Harris was by no means Indifferent to the welfare of his only son. Indeed, the bond between the two was so real and so Intense that Harris had never been able to bring himself to contemplate their separation, and the boy had not even so much as thought of establishing a home of his own. The idea of homesteadlng together assured further years of close relationship between father and son, and the younger man fell in whole-heartedly with i t But Jim smiled and ssidt "No accident at all. 1 have merely decided to go homastoading."

I put In my first years in a sodhouse, and there was more real happiness romping up and down the 9and then than there Is now. In those days everybody was so poor that money didn't count. . . . lt% different now." Jim did not pursue the subject, and the milking was completed In silence. Jim finished first, and presently the rising hum of the cream separator was heard from the kitchen. "There he goes, winding his an:* off —for me," said the girl, as she rose from the last cow. "Poor Jim—I wish I knew whether It's just human kindness makes him do It, or whether—" She stopped, coloring a Httle over the •thought that had almost escaped Into •words. When the heavy grind of the separating was finished Jim went quietly to his own room, but the girl put on a. clean dross and walked out through •the garden. At the lower gate she stooped to pick a flower, which she field tor a moment to her face; then, toying lightly with Jt in her fingers, •she slipped the latch and continued =along the path leading down" into the ravine. To the right lay the bench where the sodhouse bad stood, not 3o •ranch as a mou"d now marking the spot; but the thoughts of the girl turned yearningly to it, and to the <lays of the lonely but not unhappy •childhood which It had sheltered. Presently she reached the water, and her quick ear caught the sound of a muskrat slipping gently into the stream from the reeds on the opposite t a n k ; she could see the widening wake where he plowed his swift way across the pond. Then her own figure stood up before her. graceful and lithe as the willows on the bank. She surveyed it a minute, then flicked the flower at her face in the water, and turned slowly homeward. Sbe was not unhappy, but a dull sense of loss oppressed her—a sense that the world • w a s very rich and very beautiful, and Hast she was feasting neither on its archness nor its beauty. There was a stirring of music and poetry in her son!, btrt neither music nor poetry found expression. And presently she discovered she was thinking about Jim Travers. Her mother sat in the dmtng room, knitting by the light of the hanging lamp. Her face seemed very pale and lovely fn the soft glow. • T W t you think you have done enongh?" said the girl, slipping into & sitting posture on the floor by her mother's knee.

"He has a fine farm here, and I'm sure both blm and his wife have worked hard enough to take it easier now." "Hard work never killed nobody," pursued the farmer. "Riles is good for many a year y e t and free land ain't what it once was. Those homesteads'll be worth twenty dollars an acre by the time they're proved up.** Breakfast and Harris' speech came to an end simultaneously, and the subject was dropped for the time. In a few minutes Jim had his team hitched to the tank wagon in the yard. The men Jumped aboard and the wagon rattled down the road to where the engine and plows sat In the stubblefield. "What notion's this father's got about Riles, do yon suppose, motherV asked Beulah, as the f*o women bus* led themselves .with the morning work in the kitchen. "Dear knows," said ber mother, wearily.

Pulling a sun-bonnet upon her head Beulah called the dog, which came leaping upon her with boisterout affectlon, and hurried down the path to the field where the cows stood almost lost in a Jungle of green oats. She soon located the breach In the fence and. with the help of the dog, quickly turned the cows toward It. But alack I Just as victory seemed assured a rabbit was frightened from Its hidingplace in the green oats and sailed forth In .graceful hounds across the pasture. The dog. of course, concluded that the capture of the rabbit was of much more vital importance to the Harris homestead than driving any number of stupid cattle, and darted across the field In pursuit, wasting his breath In sharp, eager yelps as he went Whereupon the cows turned oatward again, not boisterously nor Insolently, bu. with a calm persistence that steadily wore out the girl's strength and patience. She was tn no joyous mood at best, and the perverse* ness of things aggravated her beyond endurance. Her callings to the cattle became more and more tearful, and presently ended In a sob. "There, now, Beulah, don't worry; we will have them fn a "minute," said a quiet voice, and looking about sbe found Jim almost at her elbow, his omnipresent smile playing gently about his white teeth. Ml was down at the creek filling the tank, when I saw you had a little rebellion on your hands, and I thought re-enforcements might be in order." T o u might 've hollered farther back," she said, half reproachfully, but there was a light of appreciation in her eye when she dared raise it to*va» him. "I'm afraid I was beginning to be very—foolish." Sbe tripped again on the treacherous buckwheat but he held her arm tn a strong grasp against which the weight of ber slim figure seemed but as a feather blown against a wall. Then they set about their task, but the sober-eyed cows tad no thought of being easily deprived of their feast, and It was some time before they were all turned back Into the pasture and the fence temporarily repaired behind them. "I can't thank you enough," Beulah was saying. "You Just keep piling one kindness on top of another. Say. Jim, honest, what makes you do It?" But at .that moment the keen blast of. an engine whistle came cutting through the air—a long clear note, followed by a series of toots in rapid succession. "1 guess they're running short of water,""sald Jim. "1 must hustle." 86 saying he ran to the ford of the creek measured by hours, not miles. These charts are but little used now, but there was a time when each young chief was compelled to puss his examination in the charts, knowing them by heart, as they never w e e taken to sea.

Reform Vs. Prevention. A Los Angeles woman, who hos devoted much time and effort to an Institution that aids unfortunate girls, referring to the difficulties she encountered in gaining sympathy and support for an enterprise that Is not spectacular, writes in the Los Angeles Times: "Isn't it queer that people always take so much more Interest in reforming than in preventing? Should the time pver come when I need help, I shall go out and roh a hanlc. or something like that. Then I shall be cured for, and good, charitable people will bring roe flowers and things." There is much truth In this, the Time? adds. We pet and coddle the sinner, hut we fall to aid those wh* nre tempted. Making State Pencils.

There Is In Pennsylvania a quarry famous for the fine quality of Its slate, which yields many millions of pencils annnnlly.

The machinery produces the pencils In the form of cylindrical rods of that length. wh!ch r.ro pointed on emery wheel* hy hoys, who handfp them by twos and threes with great dexterity and rapidity.

We understand that there is now a general demand by taxpayers for improved methods of government in the intereats of economy and efficiency. Many improvements have been made in cities in recent years. In the Judgment of some authorities, it will be necessary immediately to make changes in our national methods of doing business. Governor Groesbeck has recommended to the Michigan l e g i s l a t u r e that measures be passed in the interest of co-ordinating numerous departments of our State government The fundamental objective in this movement is tht saving of J vast sums of money to the taxpayers. In this same connection, I believe the strongest argument for improvement fit county government Is that the present syBtem, or lack of system, eliminates centralized responsibility, inevitably offers opportunity for flnancal leakages, and generally tends to promote substantal and unnecessary wastes of money in administration. It appears now that no substantial improvement can be made without amendment of the State constitution. Both practically and legally this view is favored by lawyers and public ofcial3 in various parts of the State. At least five steps must precede any final action in,a given county, everyone of which is based on the principle of free representative government and full popular control. These steps are: First. Asking the legislature to study the question and permit the people of the state to vote upon a simple, broad constitutional amendment which shall be prepared in final ^orm by officials of the state at Lansing and not by any citizens' committee. Second. Submission of this question to vote of the people of the state giving everybody an opportunity to know the facts. Third. No such constitutional amendment can be.come effective without a law or loos passed by the legislature, which has full power to decide the form or forms of county government which may be made op- | tional in Michigan. This third step I absolutely assures to the people represented in the legislature that no I action shall be taken except such ' a s m; y be approved by the naa- > joriry. | Thereafter ,any county which de- I aires to improve its situation may j take 'the fourth step and either I through its supervisors or through i a charter commission decide what { form of county government it may f - ^m^^^^ms^m^^^0m ^ • ^ i U i u u u > >:\j'.7&, ^ v^^3*i"'~^^y'?l«r;j:^^' •F.'X^iZS^Zi* t h e P r e f e r r e d a n d C o m m o n S t o c k ehafe equally.

A% V P1NCKNCY DISPATCH / sJ, ril VIGOROUS HEN. FOR BREEDING Fowl That Lays Well All Winter Unfit for That Purpose—Chlokt Not 8trong. The old hens I use for breeder* are selected early In the winter month* aad penned to themselves. In selecting hens for breeders, the first pdlnt I consider is vigor. A hen that does not ahow an appearance of vigor is rejected, no matter how many fancy points, she scores. The old bens are fed a maintenance ration—that is, a ration that win keep them well nourished without unduly stimulating egg production. My experience is that a hen that lays Will all winter Is unfit for tire breeding; pen, says a writer in an exchange. Her egg* will not usually run high in fertility, and the chicks that batch will cot be alrong. The reason for this Iffthat heaiy egg production is weakening, and that the hen cannot impart to bar offspring a strong, vigorous con* gtitntloo when she herself is in a weakened condition. A month before eggs are wantc4*£6r batching I gradually work the hens back to a laying ration. Beef scrap is added to the mash and the ration is made lets bulky in character. My experience is that when these hens do commence laying, they lay much better than the ones that laid well all winter. And they are much less likely to go broody at the time when egg are especially wanted for breeding. : > : • • • $ * - . V Making Wood Fire-Resisting.

England bad been conquered by the Normans In the previous century, and the sons of the great barons William the Conqueror had brought with him from France were taking possession hy force of the conquered kingdom, as they could. They were not always successful in their little individual wars, and a good many Saxon earls and squires held their own against them. Especially did the Normans have a bad time trying to oust the ancient Britons from their property in Wales.

"He said he wanted to see what a mule would do when you tickled its heels with a straw." **Oh, dear, dearl'" gasped the lady, and clung to the chair for support.

"The Beggar's Opera" is now being presented in New York with the company that was gathered for the London revival, and settings which also crossed the ocean. It was not that it was cheaper ;to bring the scenery over, but simply because it would have been Impossible to duplicate the I aafa w i t h o u t A/yirytr a same ground that had been carefully covered by the London designer. The situation is hardly a parallel to that of "Her Own Way," the Clyde Fitch comedy which could not be played for several days after the date set for the London opening because the scenery had been put on a steamer other than that taken by the company. Fitch had written this play with Intricate, though unobtrusive, scenic effects, constantly in thought.

Washington.—Members of the senate foreign relations committee let it be known that they have had in their possession for some time Information to the effect that President Wilson at the Paris peace conference promised after ratification of the treaty to use nis influence to induce congress to agree to the cancellation ot the Allied indebtedness to the United States, amounting to-nearly $10,000,000,000. According to the information in the hands of members of the committee, the British representative first proposed the cancellation of the debt. President Wilson declined to agree to this on the ground that he lacked authority, but, according to information, promised to bring the matter before the American people and congress im mediately after the ratification of the Versailles treaty. The treaty, of course, was never ratified and the president has never felt obliged to comply with the promise he is reported to have given. The information, if correct, throws interesting light on the desire of the British to get America to ratify the treaty and their willingness to accept any kind of reservations, according to one member of the committee. The information in the hands of the foreign relations committee did not entirely coincide with the statements of J. Austen Chamberlain, British chancellor of the exchequer, who in a recent speech declared that the United States had squarely blocked the cancellation of the debt. MARKET REPORT FURNISHED BY U. S.

While the most careful men in the state are carrying automobile insurance, it is estimated that the loss on uninsured automobile* < year reaches a total of $1,860,000. loss on fire alone will reach 1200,000, theft $500,000, liability ffiUV 000, and collision 1500,000.

Old line companies have made a tain per cent discount on an bile each year, and a car four years old would not be accepted. The mutual companies are using the Used Gar Market Reports as a basis, which fa more favorable for the automobile owners, for if the car is lost the owner is enabled to buy another car of same year and make.

If we would maintain these standards, we must ormj? nothing in the economies we can bring in transportation. Kvery cent we can save in transportation to market is an addition to the income of the farmer and an assurance that we can maintain these standards in agriculture. No one can contemplate the past and the future of our country without an earnest prayer t h a t we shaJl m a i n t a i n at all times the refreshing force of a strong farm population m our national life. Nor does this problem extend to agriculture alone. For if we would provide our manufacturers and our workmen with the most economic assembly of their raw materials, which they m u s t receive from all p a r t s of the world, and if we would provide for them the cheapest access to the world for their finished goods, we must also secure to them the cheapest transportation.

Approximately 5,000,000 Radio Set Owners in the United States By ORRIN E. DUNLAP, JR., in New York Times. The o u t s t a n d i n g radio development in 1925 was the advancement in transmission and reception of waves under 75 meters in length. Five other prominent milestones which 1925 will leave on its record are the improving of the tone quality produced by receiving sets; the stabilization of the i n d u s t r y ; the winning over of world-famous artists to broadcasting; the improving of transmission, especially the usage of higher power, sucli as in the oO-kilowatt plants at Schenectady and Bound Brook, N. J., and the invention of a combination photoelectric cell and vacuum tube, which is likely to lead to more rapid development of television and radio motion pictures. The passing year leaves a record of approximately 5,000,000 radio sot owners in the United States, about 600,000 of whom are on farms. There will probably be 2,000,000 set owners added to the invisible audience during the next twelve months.

HUGH MILLER, George Washington University. Due acknowledgement should be paid to t h e legal profession for its services to civilization in the past and to the high-minded and efficient members of that profession today. The profession as a whole, however, is all out of joint with the requirements of our present-day civilization. So much so that I believe that one-half of the lawyers in the country are parasites on society and perform no useful service. To explain this let me say that congress, composed mostly of lawyers, paid by the public $10,000 a year, spend their time passing laws which they violate themselves every day, together with a large part of the population of the country. Other lawyers employed by individuals and corporations earn $50,000 a year and upward by trying to interpret or evade the laws which the first group of lawyers have passed. In other words, the legal profession, by reason of its control of political and economic machinery, are plaving both ends against the ate suit in the United States supreme j m u ] ( ] I e flm] a r e f f l t f p n i t h o r n ^ ] v e s a t t h c expeme o f t h e b H M court seeking to restrain the Chicago , ,, , - , , sanitary district from diverting water o v e r - lawyers nz a rule talk too much and act too slowly for modern confrom the Great l^akes, it was annouiu- ditions.

Our Young People Have Certainly Emerged From the Age of Authority By DEAN HERBERT E. HAWKES, Columbia University. Our young people have certainly emerged from the age of authority, either parental, social or divine. Each is master of his own rlestinv in an anarchy of individualism. It is high time t h a t some one who possesses the vision clears the way for the next step, which is in sight. S i fnr as our students are concerned, the slate is wiped clean for a consideration of religion. The nv-st striking feature of our vouncr people is not thfir interest in religion, but their ignorance of it. With the falling away of home trainmg in religious matters, our students have no idea what it is all about. And they are interested to find out.

BED-MAKING FOR INVALIDS p V E R Y O N K , whetner sic* or well, •*-* should have a comfortable bed. But Invalids, especially thoae who have to pass any long period in bed, should have their beds made so that they will not unly be comfortable and restful for the invalid, but also so that the comfort and convenience of the attendant may be increased. The bed itself should be about 26 inches above the hour. Either too high or too iow a bed makes proper care of the invalid difficult and unnecessarily tiring. Single or three-quarter beds are best for the sick. The bed should he firm and steady and should uot sag, wobble or creak. The bed slats and springs should be well fitted and Arm, so that there Is no danger of the mattress falling down. If possible the bed should he so placed in the room that the nurse has room to get around both sides and the foot. A bed shoved into a corner is not only harder for the nurse but also generally prevents a good circulation of air for the patient. Metal bedsteads are better than wooden bedsteads, especially old ones that have cracks and open spaces in which bed bugs are apt to breed. An iron bed can he more easily washed and cleaned. A coat of fresh paint occasionally will keep it fresh and clean. Springs should me firm, so that they will not sag in the middle. The mattress should be firm, smooth and thick. A thin mattress is uncomfortable, soon mats and wears through and often lets much cold air come through, which keeps the patient uncomfortable. Hair mattresses are good, but some of the present-day felt mattresses are just as good and much less expensive. In making a bed for an invalid, put a good pad over the mattress, large enough to cover it and to tuck in smooth and tight. This may be a quilt or comfort. Over this spread a waterproof sheet which should cover at least the middle of the bed. Rubber sheeting, oilcloth or several layers of newspapers can be used. Spread this perfectly smooth, as wrinkles and ridges nre apt to be very irritating to the patient. The under sheet should be stretched tight and tucked in on all four sides. The upper sheet should be tucked in at the foot but left free at the sides so that the nurse can have easy access to the patient.

THE oyster scare of last winter, according to the Fish and Oyster Keporter, cost the oyuer Industry of this country $30,000,000. So completely was the bottom knocked out of the business that some of the older men said the oyster industry would not recover in ten years. But, as often happens, the excitement and discussion that resulted was a blessing in disguise and the oyster business today is In a healthier and more promising condition than it ever has been. For one thing, the widespread Investigation of the methods heretofore used in handling oysters, stimulated Interest in the old problem of the artificial propagation of oysters. At a recent dinner of the National Association of Fisheries Commissioners held at Washington, artificially grown oysters were served for the first time at a banquet. In 1S7!>, Professor Brooks of Johns Hopkins tried to raise oysters artificially, but was never able to keep the eg^'s ulive for more than five days. Others have had the same experience. Mr. WVIls has been working on this problem for five years and lias at last succeeded In growing food oysters under purely artificial conditions. Oysters, says Mr, Wells, nre suffering from the encroachment of civilization. In early days, they were found in quantities all along the Atlantic coast. F'ollutlon of the sea water from towns along the coast and the Increased demand for them has so reduced the supply that the beds are now In some places exhausted. If Mr. \VeMs can work out methods hy which they can be grown In large quantities, we can have not only better oysters hut cheaper oysteeJJ. The possibilities for growing oysters are unlimited. In the warm summer months the lady oyster lays from six to ten million eggs, but, alas, most of them are eaten by fishes or other moltusks or die through failure to find something to cling to. Others are smothered by seaweeds or killed by freshets from the rivers or by sea storms. Those which survive cling together in clustpra, develop n shell and must grow for four years before they are fit for food. Artificial methods hy wihch the oyster can be protected from its many enemies will greatly increase the supply of this delicious food. Warning I Unless you see the name "Bayer" on package or on tablets you are not getting the genuine Bayer Aspirin proved safe by millions and prescribed by physicians for 25 years. Bay "Bayer" when you buy Aspirin. Imitations may prove dangerous.—Adv. Busy Woodpeckers Woodpeckers are ruining the tallest flagpole In the United States.

U* DETROIT, NO. 7~JtM. -4¾ By D E W I T T J. MASON KDHCK WASHINGTON, In his boyhood days, was a surveyor. He had much experience in that line and lie was highly . successful. A neglected scene of his youthful labors now is demanding public attention— the little stone office In which lie worked for I^ird Fulrfax Is to become a show place of Clark county, Virginia. A hundred and seventy-eight years ago George Washington might have been found there any day, figuring busily and poring over outstretched charts and maps, In the neighborhood lie made Ids first acquaintance, as a surveyor, with a country he was later to know as R soldier, Here he became accustomed to hardships and privations such as were to be his lot la the Revolutionary war. The little office Is only gome sixty miles or so from Washington, D. C. When the young surveyor worked there it was on a wild frontier. Henry, Lord Fairfax, was once visiting his relative, William Fairfax, when George Washington was present. Lawrence Washington had married William Fairfax's daughter. The great man took a 'fancy to the boy, Just past his seventeenth birthday. Finding in hlra abilities and attainments beyond his years, he engaged him to survey his vast tracts of land In the rich valley of the Alleghanles. Washlngtt n set out In March, 1748, together with George William Fairfax; and, through Ashley's Gap In the Blue Ridge mountains, the western ftontler of inhabited Virginia, they passed into the valley. In the wilderness In the Shenandoah valley, about twelve miles from the present town of Winchester, they stopped at a lodge where Lord Fairfax's land bailiff, or steward, dwelt with as many negroes as were necessary to farm the newly cleared land. This first arduous expedition lasted five weeks, with results of such satisfaction to Lord Fairfax that he himself moved across the Blue Ridge soon afterward, taking up his quarters at the lodge. He laid out a manor for the place, which he called 1 Greenway court, after his ancestral home In England; but the house was never built. The master himself slept In a wooden structure about 12 feet square. On the lawn nearby he built a one-story office, where his deeds were drawn and his quit rents collected. There the boy Washington did his work, remaining for three years In the servke of Lord Fairfax. Many of the now famous plats of his surveys and subdivisions were made under this roof. Washington's life as a surveyor, gare htm a splendid physique. When he had his growth he was "straight Conquer Constipatictn with Yeast Foam!

This stood him well during the Revolution. Long hours In the saddle could not tire him. He slept once under a tree with its roots for a pillow. The privations of Valley Forge could not daunt him. He ' rode a horse to death to get to the 1 front nt Monmouth, and strip the re- j treat and had breath left to curse ' Lee for his cowardice. I Washington s life as a surveyor made him 100 per cent efficient in the ways of the wilderness, where effi- i cieney means life or death. He learned to a hair's breadth what a man could do with rifle, horse and boat; how to run like a coward and come back like a brave man; how to use Morgan's riflemen who came In re* sponse to his hurry-up call; how to get the lay of the land and pick his battlefield. The old office has been left to the ravages of time and the elements In recent years. It is almost hidden from view by a long-stretching arm of a giant locust tree One window Is concealed behind a screen of bushes, and over Its roof a clinging creeper climbs, drooping like a stray lock over the front. Its corners are chipped, its windows broken and Its -shingled roof Is leaky in spots. But repairs and restoration are now at hand. A committee has been formed, of which Graham F. Blandy of New York is chairman, to collect funds for reshingling the roof, relaying the floor, enclosing the inside and repainting the outside walls. Ry spring, it Is thought, all will be in readiness for visitors. That Washington, as was the custom among the landed proprietors of Virginia and other southern states, was a slave holder is well known. His views on slavery are not so generally understood and while it may not be a 1 surprise to many that on his death he I freed his own slaves, the provisions ; of his will in this respect are o f much 1 interest. After providing that his wife, Martha Washington, shall have the "use find profit and benefit of his whole estate, real and personal," during her life, there follows this clause: "ITEM—I'pon the decease of wife It is my will and desire that all the slaves which I hold in my own right shall receive their freedom. To emancipate them during her life would, though earnestly wished for by me, be attended with such insuperable difficulties on account of their intermixture with the dower negroes as to excite the most painful sensations. if not disagreeable consequences, from the latter while both descriptions are in the occupancy of the same proprietor, it not being In my power under the tenure by which the dower negroes are held to manumit them. And whereas, among those who will receive freedom according to this demise, there may be some who from old age or bodily infirmities and others who on account of their Infancy that will be unable to support themselves, it is my will and desire that all who come under the first and second description shall be comfortably clothed and fed by my heirs while they live, and that such of the later description as have no parents living, or If living are unable or unwilling to provide for them, shall be bound by the court until they shall arrive at the age of twenty-five years, and in cases wlkere no record can be produced whereby their ages can be ascertained, the judgment of the court upon Its own view of the subject shall be adequate and final. "The negroes thus hound are (by their masters or mistresses) to be taught to read and write and to be brought up to some useful occupation, agreeably to the laws of the commonwealth of Virginia providing for the support of orphans and other poor children—and I do hereby expressly forbid the sale or transportation out of the said commonwealth of any slave I may die possessed of, under any pretence whatsover, and I do moreover most positively and most solemnly enjoin It upon my executors hereafter named, or the survivors of them, to see that this clause respecting slaves and every part thereof be religiously fulfilled at the epoch at which it Is directed to take place without evasion, neglect, or delay after the crops which may then be on the g-round are harvested, particularly as it respects the aged and Infirm, seeing that a regular and permanent fund be established for their support so long as there are subjects requiring it. not trusting to the uncertain provisions to be made by individuals." There follows a clause providing for his personal "mulatto man" giving him his independence at once, if he no desires. The actual reading of the above clause throws an Intimate light on Washington's extreme thoughtfulness, showing, as It does, the consummate care exercised that his wishes might In no manner be misconstrued. The provisions regarding the aged and Infirm, the children, can only serve more firmly to endear this great man who, leaving no children of his own, is so proudly called the father of an entire nation. Weeds Are Doomed Unsightly weeds along the garden path are doomed, according to Information from Germany. Certain compounds have just been putented that oaay be added to the gravel before aylngs the paths in order to prevent iny weeds from growing, or they may 3e powdered or sprayed on the weeds ;o kill them.

In addition to plenty of heat, have :\ temporary wire fence, of threefourths- inch mesh and eighteen inches high, stretched around the (hicks for the first few days. After the third day, gradually open out this fence until the chicks have the run of the house, When entirely opened, however, the f e n c e should «liU he roundpd at the corners and should he three or four inches from the sides of the h o u s e j In c a s e the chick* have* a tendency to j crowd to one side ihey will not be crowding against n solid partition.

at this time for this very purpose School proves to be a strain to the the average child between 6 and 8 for the simple reason that he is not done yet with playing Thats why he must not be expected to

development, and this may merely reveal itself in a different form of interest, which is encouraged and exploited from every end of education until the child himself expresses an interest in something new to do, frequently naming himself what he wants this to be Thus a child who is believe the child goes through the motions which helped the race to grow up Thats why camping and hunting, gangs and competition, appeal to him so keenly at this stage From a standpoint of development, he is a primitive, causing his play interest to run to fighting and because it is only play, he never really intends to hurt his opponents Educators find that an, interest in boxing gives such youngsters the muscular development they need But their activities must not be confined to this sport alone, if

the age of 20 years, should he desire to pursue hie studies 1 in the high school , This opinion sustains the view that high school graduation does not relieve the primary school district from payment of tuition and thus a student may attend high school and have his he wf triumphant legal rate of 60 a year until e tne hour of trial , 1 Nor was that the first time that the wife of John Stark had

signifies an enemy and the word Devil signifies a slanderer The International Ency clopedia says in part In later Jewish and Christian belief, a mighty sjjirt ef eviLwho has during unknown ages ruled

LYDIA X PINK HAM 8 I COMPOUND and m rtt WashingtonMore perhaps than ever before in our countrys history, 1 J ae courts of the ThmPrsmdi nation, federal and this Court and state, are in a jam They are being subjected to a greater strain than ever before and, Z think, the Strain is too great for them long to continue to bear it That sentence sounds sensational It is meant to be In the opinion of many sound thinkers, men and women of vision, there has never been a time when a wave or surge has attacked the courts or any other American institution with such ferocity One of the reasons the situation is to be regarded with so much concern is President Roosevelts latest request of congress for a reorganization of the judiciary system He is asking for more judges everywhere which, of itself, seems entirely proper, but the message astounded observers by proposing an increase in the membership of the Supreme court of the United States to fifteen That is to say that if it were enacted into law, Mr Roosevelts own proposal would give him authority to select six additional justices of the highest tribunal Inasmuch as the present membership of the court has refused a number of times to hold New Deal legislation valid under the Constitution, it takes no stretch of the imagination at all to figure out that Mr Roosevelts proposal would give him authority to select a sufficient number of new justices so that the New Deal would hold the balance of power in the highest court of the judiciary of the coun try There may be and probably is merit in the Presidents proposal that judges should retire at seventy years of age It happens that the present membership of the court in cludes six men who are above that age and a statute compelling retirement at seventy would make six added vacancies in the court unless the present court should find that this law itself is unconstitutional in one regard The judges are appointed for life and they cannot be removed without cause which means they must be impeached by congress and tried The message respecting reorganization of the judiciary system was by far the most sensational to come from Mr Roosevelt as President He pointed out in it that he had proposed reorganization of the executive branch of the government so that it might function more efficiently The next step, he said, was to reorganize the judiciary so that it could administer justice more speedily But there are many minds throughout the country which find it difficult to believe that the necessity for speedy justice is the fundamental reason for the new proposal It is too early to tell, of course, how congress will act on the Presidents suggestion, but the more as tute observers here are quite convinced that such legislation cannot go through without a bitter debate The political implications are many If a real struggle develops in the house or the senate, it is not out side the range of a good guess to predict that it could split the tremendous Democratic majority asunder in either house If it did that once, undoubtedly enmities and factions would be created that would continue through the remainder of the Presidents new term and only the passage of time can disclose how far reaching such a thing might be But let us review for a moment some of the background of the conditions that have preceded the Presidents sensational proposal There have been sniping and bushwhacking at the judiciary for a number of yearsand this was thrown into high speed by the President himself when the Supreme court threw out the NRA On that occasion, Mr Roosevelt made the well remembered remark that the decision had taken us back to the horse and buggy days There followed an uproar by a vocal minority of radicals and persons who claimed to be liberal They attacked the Supreme court for throwing out New Deal measures, ridiculed the justices as the nine old men and proceeded in general to spread poison to all and sundry about the countrys judicial system On top of that came Mr Roosevelts speech to congress last month in which he made a virtual demand upon the Supreme court for a more enlightened interpretation of the Constitution That was an unprecedented thing but it was not nearly so sensational as the present problem e e e Much of the problem that is twirling around the courts of the land re suits from the poCoftjrest sition which con CriticUs gress has chosen to take There are a goodly number of representatives and senators who, swayed by the vocal minority mentioned earlier, have voiced bitter criticisms of the judiciary and have even proposed that its freedom be curbed They are doing this because they see the Supreme court deciding every now and then that some illthoughtout piece of legislation should be tossed out of the window A good many of these congressional shouters have only a slight understanding of the babble that they put out on the floorjof the house and senate, but the Fact remains they are a part of the congress and hence their words are received with some consideration among those who want to believe the same way On the other hand, there are men like Senator Borah of Idaho, who foresee real trouble for all of us if the powers of the courts are curbed Senator Borah thinks the question of the freedom of the judiciary is a paramount issue and lately has made a powerful appeal that it the people want to make changes in their government, the people ought to do it and not the President and the congress The Idaho senator makes the point that only through a judiciary unfettered by politics, free to operate as it sees the law, can the people of the country retain their freedom If judicial independence goes, liberty goes So, it seems to me that congress, which just now is the spearhead of the movement to change the power of the courts, ought to recognize its own responsibility I said earlier that the courts could not continue long to bear the pres ent burden of attack That burden which they carry now results largelyand this is especially true of the Supreme court of the United Statesfrom the fact that congress has ceased to be a deliberative body It has tossed great chunks of undigested legislation at the courts and when the courts have held these laws unconstitutional, a bunch of nitwits each time has unleashed a great howl It would seem then that the proper conclusion is that the nine old men are not older nor any less enlightened than the members of congress or the executive branches of the government but that especially congress is fail ing to do its job It is attempting to read election returns into the judiciary It seems to me it ought to be remembered by members of congress and officials of the executive branch of the government that each and every one of them has taken an oath as an official of this government to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution and in so doing they must defend the courts In any discussion of congress and its activities, I find timr to do a little Itching Laughs Are Through the last Load Today several weeks, a period when floods were raging and people were dying, when thousands upon thousands walked the streets without jobs, when other thousands walked the streets because a militant labor leader had called a strike and had permitted his strikers to violate laws of the land by seizure of propertywhile all of these things were happening, our congress was giving thought to a picayune proposition It was discussing a bill providing for alterations of the Capitol build ing, itself The tragedy of this particular thing is that it has a very good chance of being enacted into law before the end of this session It is proposed to spend four or five million dollars to extend and reconstruct the central portion of the Capitol along lines that would make the three east wings extend the same distance from the main build ing It would enlarge the central portion and provide more office space when, as far as any observers can see, there is ample space for all of the offices required now or for the next half century I said the tragedy of the thing was that this proposal stands a fair chance of passing through congress Sponsors of the plan declare it will improve the appearance of the central portion of the old building It may do that but I have found more architects who disagree than agree with that thought As for the office space argument, it would appear that somebody in congress is quite determined simply to spend some more money It is to be remembered that only two years ago, the house of representatives built a second office building at a cost of 9,000,000 for its members About the same time, the senate added a wing to the senate office building so that each senator could have three rooms whereas heretofore the average senator had only two rooms in his suite Committee chairmen always have had three or more rooms In addition, there are several hundred offices in the Capitol building itself and a goodly number of senators and representatives have private offices in the Capitol as well as in the office buildings So altogether, I think there is just ground for say ing, as one hears said frequently, that the congresses of the last few years much resemble boys who have received too many toys in one delivery They dont know what to do with themselves g Western Newspaper

to leave tha Head until I give you permission I give you my word I shall not leave it Well, Mary, Patrick said in a weary tone It all makes sense Here we have a perfect design Torriano first, Margaret next,then Marden No one of them seems to have told anything but the truth Theyre all dying to tell the truth If somebody would only lie, maybe I could get the answer Of course Margaret said she thought she heard something stirring in the bushes Marden apparently noticed nothing like that Now there may have been another person involved or any number For that matter, Margaret Fairweather may have returned andOh, I dont know who killed Ace Blaikie Im no nearer knowing than I was Saturday Whos that Vaguely in the back of my mind I had heard Doctor Marden drive off In the back of my mind I heard a second motor turn into the drive It stopped Presently a light, swift step came through the hall and into the living rooma light, swift stepstrangely stiffened by determination Ive come back to tell you the rest of my story, Mr OBrien, said Myron Marden I havent told you all of it yet Involuntarily we all three sat down I will begin it by telling you, Doctor Marden took up the story in the quietest voice I had ever heard from him, something that will, I think, come as a great surprise to you He paused as though to summon his strength for the revelation Ace Blaikie is the father of my granddaughter Caro Prentiss He pauced again as though for a question or comment from us But neither Partick nor I spoke We did not stir His statement had worked too great a paralysis for us either to speak or move Ill have to go back of course to tell you how it came about I will begin with my own marriage My wife was a New York woman When I met her, about forty years ago, she was a widow She had been widowed twice and both times under tragic conditions Her first husband, Theodore Prentiss, also a New Yorker, was thrown from his horse a month after their marriage He died instantly She became the mother of his posthumous childa boy, Theodore Prentiss Five years later, she married againAddison Dacre He too was a New Yorker While they were traveling in France, he died in Paris of a case of pneumonia She was pregnant at the time and the shock brought on the premature birth of a little girl who was to be named Eleanor Dacre I was established as a physician in Paris and I was called in on the case This was immedi ately after the funeralI never met Addison Dacre Mrs Dacre was a beautiful womana very lovely woman I felt that if the child died, her very reason would go I threw myself heart and soul into saving that premature little waifand I did save her I took care of her for months Of course that constant attendance brought Mrs Dacre and me very close By the time Eleanor was a year old, we realized that life meant nothing to either of us without the other Six months later we were married quietlj in Paris My practice was mere and we have lived in Paris, except for our holidays, ever since My wife died two years ago and, after I had a little recovered from my grief, I decided to return to America But I am running ahead of my story I must go back to Eleanor There could not possibly ever have lived a more lovely child than Eleanor And whenI use the word lovely, I use it advisedly She was lovely in face and figure lovely in heart and spirit I adored WAT A beautiful child, Eleanor grew to be a beautiful woman I do not think that this is prejudice Everywhere, her appearance made a sensation That was not entirely due to her beauty perhaps It was partly her coloring It was the most delicate blonde I have ever seen ethereal Often Mrs Marden and I discussed the proper adjective to apply to Eleanor She was not angelic nor seraphic nor cherubic She was too tall to be fairylike She was spritelike Her hair was the palest gold, her features what we used to call mignonne, her eyes deeply violet The French always stared at her and in Spain and Italy the cre ated such a sensation that she did not like to go out on the street alone She had courage enough, but she hated the little incidents which occurred here and there along the way I will not say that Eleanor was an angel, although the was a kind of modern angel She was too vigorouaJosuggest that sort of thing But she was absolutely honest She was sweet She was kind We worshiped her my wife and I Doctor Marden came to a full stop He put his hand over his eyes and sank back into the past Presently with a deep sigh he emerged into the present again When the war came, I enlisted as a volunteer in the French medical service I will say here that we are a medical family, so to speak Before the war was over, there were a half dozen Mardena working in France When the Unit ed States came in, I was transferred to the American service He paused and looked inquiringly at Patrick Patrick nodded He did not speak I knew that no more than I would he have interrupted the flow of that story Doctor Marden went on My wife threw herself into war work too, For four years she worked daily at the American Ambulance in Neuilly Eleanorperhaps now I had better tell you about Eleanor Eleanor was a natural nurse She never took a course in nurs ing, but I taught her everything I knew She volunteered when I did and the French sent her to the hospital at CourcysurSeine She stayed there for about a year I saw her only at irregular intervals I had an occasional permission from the front and then she and my wife and I would try to manage a reunion at our home in Paris But I did not see much of Eleanor during the first months of the war I went through what many husbands were going through in France then I saw my wife getting more and more fatiguednervously exhaust ed But Eleanor stood up to it marvelously But every time I saw her, it seemed to me that she had become more of a woman, more and more beautiful Then Ace Blaikie appeared in her life Again Doctor Marden came to a pause and now he did not cover his face with his hands He presented, Then He Took Up His Story Again unscreened, the hard bitter eyes, the tightshut lips the setness of every line and curve, I know that you, Mrs Avery, are acquainted with the factors of Ace Blaikies war experience be cause Ive heard you discuss them so often And besides, I reminded him, my husband was in France Well then, I will merely say that it was while he was in the Foreign Legion that he met Eleanor It seemed to have been a case of love at first sight Certainly with Eleanor And as she afterward told me, Doctor Blaikie said it was so with him But when it comes to Doctor Blaikie and love The expression on Doctor Mardens face deepened so horribly that it was as though the blood behind the flesh had turned to ink For a moment the term my husband used to use in regard to boxing and boxers came into my mind fighting face he did not know really what love was On that side he was not man but beast At any rate they met as often as his permissions and hers allowed What happened of course was that Ace Blaikie discovered that in order to possess my daughter, he must offer her mar riage Understand Doctor Mardens voice shot to us a peremptory order Understand that this was not a subject that Eleanor would discuss with any man He had to learn thatto sense it And he was apparently extremely acute in sensing the reactions of the other sex At any rate they were mar ried secretly That was before the United States came in It was in the summer of 1015 I will not go into all the ins and outs of this I will say only that marriage in France is a very complicated matter Ace Blaikie had made friends with a French officer who had a long pull He fixed it so that Ace and Eleanor were married secretly Presently Eleanor found herself pregnant She told me afterward that there was nothing in the world she wanted so much as to bear a child It was several months after this discovery before she saw Ace Blaikie At their first meeting, she told him that she was going to make their marriage public She could see, as she told me subsequently, that Ace Blaikie was appalled at this discovery He tried to get her to withdraw from the hospital and go to America And if not to America, to Italy or Spain Eleanor steadily refused Finally, she told him if he gave her no help, she must apply to methat the marriage must be announced Thereupon, he told her that she was, in reality, not married at all That, a few years before, he had secretly married in the United States an actress by the name of Drina Demoyne Drina Demoyne I interrupted Fve seen Drina Demoyne Why, what was it I read about her just the other day She died recently Yes, Doctor Marden answered Her death has a great bearing on this story That revelation of Ace Blaikies was really Eleanors death warrant She never saw him again But she communicated with me once I got a permission and came back from the front She told me the whole story My wife and I had but one ideato save Eleanors reputation Now it happened that my wifes son by her first marriage, Theodore Prentiss, was living during the war in a remote village in southern France He volunteered for both the French and American armies But he had always been an invalid and could not be used either as a soldier or in any civilian capacity He was married and his wife was pregnant I sent Eleanor to them My stepsons wife died bringing a dead child into the world Theodore survived her only six months In the meantime, Eleanor bore a perfectly healthy baby whom she named Caroline after my wife This was the Caro whom you know Before he died, Theodore suggested a plan We carried it out We reg istered her in the Marie of Laitry as Caroline Blaikie We registered her under that name as an Ameri can citizen, with the consul of Marseilles I can show you that she bears that name on her passport But we told all her friends in Paris and have told them ever since that she was Theodores child As soon as I could get leave, I took my wife and daughter to Spain He paused For an instant he bit his lower lip as though to fang out of it the emotion which made it tremble There my daughter killed herself Neither Patrick nor I made comment He himself made no further comment When we returned to Paris, however, there was never any question of Eleanors not being Theodore Prentisss childCaroline Prentiss And so she jrew up She has no more idea of her relationship to Ace than you had before I told you this story As she is a minor, I got her passport She has never seen it Concealing her real name from Caro has been one of the minor troubles of my life But Ive accomplished it I brought her up in Paris, as you know But as she grew older, I wondered about her forbears in America I knew that people thought of Ace Blaikie as a rich man I knew that he had property in Satuit, Massachusetts I began to wonder if, as he grew older, he would not want his only childif only child she wereto in herit that property At first I put this thought out of my mind But it kept recurring It troubled me I finally found it was keeping me awake nights Sleepless nights began to recur a little too often I made inquiries and found that Ace Blaikie was not only accepted as a bachelor but that nobody knew that he had ever been married Ulti mately I decided to come to the United States, to establish myself at Satuit It made things easy foe me because I had never met Ace Blaikie In the war somebody started calling Eleanor Sister Dora, after an old novel, the heroine of which was a nurse I confess I have never read it Ace Blaikie never called her anything but Sister Dora Although Eleanors name was Dacre, the name of Marden might of course linger in Ace Blaikies mind Still, as I said before, there had been at least half a dozen physicians named Marden working in Paris during the war Last spring, as you both know, I came here to Satuit I met Ace Blaikie socially, of course, although I made no effort to meet him Caros name was neither his nor mine If the coincidence of a physician from Paris by the name of Marden gave him pause, he did not let me know it He may have thought of me only as one of the Marden connection in Paris In the meantime I studied my man I found that he was engaged to be married to a beautiful, charming and estimable young girl That girl became Caros most devoted friend I confess to you I did not know what to do If he married, Ace Blaikie was likely to leave children In the matter of in heritance, his legitimate heirs would of course take precedence oyer Caro And the last thing in the world I wantedfor Caros sakewas a scandal I let tha summer drift by in a welter of indecision He paused again and seemed reminiscently to survey that long direful period Then he took up his story again TO BE CONTINUED Being Afraid of the Dark P Br Audrey C Haydea A S FAR back as I can remember I never was afraid of the dark When I became a mother, I believed that there was no reasox why any child should be afraid, and that if fear were never suggested in connection with darkness, it wouldnt occur to the child to be afraid Darkness is a natural phenomenon, I reasoned, and one of which babies are not afraid Applying this theory, all went well with my own little girl, until something unfortunate happened Either someone complimented my little threeyearold on her bravery, shown in going up to bed alone, or someone told an alarm ing story, or someonewell, no matter I dont know how it happened This I do know Jane began to sajr she was afraid of the darkthat frogs would get her Believe Fear Is Expected Now I really believe that most cases of fear of the dark on the part of children have no deeprooted reason When there is such a reason, if it can be found, of course very careful consideration should be given to reconditioning But most children fear the dark because they have somehow imbibed the idea that it is rather expected of themthat if they are not afraid they are very brave, but if they are afraid it is nothing to be wondered at The child hav ing acquired the fear, there are two popular methods for exercis ing it One is to attempt to get back to the original cause ana explain that away the second to overcome it by setting up artifi cial bravery I tried to reason with Jane, and showed her pictures of rogs to let her see how small they are, and also made a lot of brave talk about a great big girl like you But my efforts had no effect Jane just cried and clung to my dress, and pulled me along with her to bed or the bathroom She wasnt brave and wasnt going to be talked into it It seemed best to accede quietly I took her to the bathroom and to bed for two or three weeks, and I did it as a matter of course I made it a point, also, to walk from room to room without a light as soon as she was in bed After going downstairs I would come up on an imaginary errand, and walk about again in the darkness On several occasions, a little before bedtime, we took walks together, and sometimes we went down cellar in the dark, but always without any mention of its being dark When she spoke of frogs I said yes, I could see them toothat it was fun to be able to imagine things, wasnt it And the best part was that since they werent real, you could stop imagining them whenever you wanted to Darkness Is Ordinary Condition Then one day I felt very ill and spent the day lying on the couch When night came and Jane wanted to go to they bathroom I called her over and said, Now, Jane, Mother is sick, so you will have to go alone And she said, Yes It will be dark in there, doyou understand And I cannot come in if you call me to turn on the light, I explained She thought a minute and then said, All right When bedtime came, I undressed her and sent her up to bed alone, and then casually sent another member of the family up on an errand Jane had the idea, though, that I was sending her alone to bed, and that the company and the light were merely incidental The next night I went to the bathroom, ostensibly to get something, making it appear accidental that I went when Jane was there Then I sent her off to bed alone, casually The next night I sent her to the bathroom and to bed in the dark without comment, and it has been a regular occurrence ever since Did we get at the root of the trouble Thats hard to say since I never found out the beginning of the fear, but we made the dark into a very ordinary, matteroffact condition National Kindergarten Assn WOMEN fUmi tiL WAY TO IRON WfTNTMl Coleman Mil III VI IM Iron LIGHTS INSTANTLYNO
