-Tea, tell him that Morbach Is here.Tell him to come quick, quick I Youunderstand 1"

"Tea, I understand." The girt wentto the telephone, and lifted her handto the receiver. - Then she hesitatedand turned. "Is It Mr. Henry Arch-man or his son Harry that you wishto seeT* she naked.

"Henry! Henry I What have I todp with boyst Tell Henry to come—quick!

The girl spoke Into the telephone.Morbach lay feverishly listening whileshe got the desired connection. "IsUr. Archman there r she asked.Then: "Mr. Henry Arcbman isn't athome," she said. , .

"Not a; home! Oh! Is'any onethere who is In his confidence? Anyone who has the brains?"

The girl spoke once more into thetelephone. "There's a woman at thephone now," she said, a moment later."It's his daughter. Can you tell hersomething about your business withMr. Arcbman?" .

"My business!" The man'laqgbedgaspingly. "Tell him that I have in-formation fiat is worth millions. Tellhim that I die. Tell him what youplease. Oily tell him to come."

Again Edith spoke Into the tele-phone; then she turned. "Miss arch-man says that she will send her fa-ther's secretary, Mr. Akin, here atonce," she explained, "and that shewill try and reach her father andsend' him here also. Mr. Archman'shouse Is two miles away, and It willtake some time for either of them toget here."

"He had better come quick." Theman sobbed the words. "Doctor, you

' will keep me alive till he comes. Imust not die till he 'comes."

T i l do my best." The doctor bentover him and held a teaspoonful ofsome potent concoction to his lips."Take this and lie as still as you canand save your strength."

The man swallowed the liquor andlay still. A i instant later the doctorleft him and went to the telephone andcalled up tli e police station.

Harrison heard him and seemedgalvanized to action. Quickly heturned to Stlss Grant "I must go,"he said. "V. suppose this Mr. Akinwill be here as he promised. Do youknow him?"

The girl si look her head. "No," shesaid.

The doctor heard the words andcame over. Harrison spoke to him."I was Just wondering whether Mr.Akin could be relied upon," he said."I've got a horse and buggy out hereand perhaps I might meet him andhurry him up. Good-night!" and heturned toward the door.

"Good-night,"- The girl spoke softly."Let me thank you for what you havedone."

"No thanks are necessary," respond-ed Harrison hastily. "It they are due_t°_an7_ one, they are Jo^ you^ But I

' guess' there are no thanks coming toeither of us. Good-night" He openedthe door and went out

A moment later the doctor lookedup. "That gentleman hasn't gone, hashe?" he demanded. ^ -

Edith nodded. "He said he was In- a hurry and that there didn't seemanything more to do."

The doctor frowned. "Did he giveyou his name and address?" he asked.

Edith hesitated. "He gave me hisname," she said. "It is Henry Harri-son. But he gave no address."

"That's bad!" The doctor frowned.T h i s Is a case of murder, you know.His testimony will certainly be want-ed. However, I suppose he can befound."

"His buggy, was struck In the col-lision. Perhaps It was damaged. May-be he hasn't gone yet Shall I see?"

The girl went out through the din-ing-room, closing the door between thetwo rooms as she passed through i tShe was gone a long time—or so itseemed to the-doctor. When she cameback she shook her head. "He's gone,"she said. "The night is too dark tolet one see much. He's out of sight.OradoasI" .'•

The doorbell had rung with startlingsuddenness. "X suppose that is Mr.Akin," the girt said, as she turned to-ward, the hall., \ " .

Morbach's eyes popped open. "Tonhave cornel" he cried. "Good • wellbeat them yet" He hesitated, his eyesravine over the faces of the others."If I could only see Henry T begroaned. "Ton are his man and youare all right,' but It means so much,so much. Come here, all of yon—you,doctor; you, young lady; all of yonlisten I"

But she must come at once.Henry must bring her by the'way heknows, or by the way told in thesepapers—" The dying man raised thepacket feebly. "It Is by—by—"

The other leaned forward. "Yes,yes 1" he cried eagerly. "The way isb y - "

"It's all told here I" Again Morbachraised the paper. "But let him be-ware I" he cried. "Let him beware!"

Nellie Had Turned Around. "Mr.Carr!" 8he Exclaimed, in Tones asWondering as Those of the Man.

A shudder shook his frame. "They gotrae and—and—" Again his voicedied away. "The papers—tell all," hesaid, with a last expiring effort

"I understand." The man took thepacket and slipped tt Into his pocket.Til tell Mr. Archraan," he promised.

"Yes, yes; tell him all. Tell him—"The front doorbell rang sharply,

cutting- across Morbach's words, andhe- fell back on the lounge.. _.Edith,turning away, went hurriedly intothe hall, closing the parlor door gen-tly behind her as she did so.

CHAPTER II

A Clew Wanted.When Edith opened the door she

found standing on the. steps a sweet-faced young woman, apparently littlemore than a girl. Behind her glim-mered the twin lamps of on automo-bile.

Quickly Edith stepped back andopened the door wider. "Come In!"Bhe Invited.

The newcomer stepped In timidly.Is this Miss Grant?" she asked. "I

am Nelllu Archman. You telephonedfor my father—" . .

"Yes I ' I am BO glad you have come.Your father's secretary is with Mr.Morbach now."

"Mr. Akin?" For an Instant Nellielooked puzzled. Then her face cleared,"i suppose he couldn't find father andthought it best to.come himself." shemurmured. "I telephoned you that hewould come, you know, but later wedecided that he should go to look forfather and that I should come heredirect I don't' see how he managedto outstrip me, but I am glad he did."

Edith nodded and-turned toward the'closed door of the parlor. "Will yousee Mr. Morbach?" she asked. .-

But Nellie declined! "I had rathernot?; ahe said, "If Mr. Akin is; here,he will do everything. I only' came to

There's notime, rve been a fool, but It was be-cause—Good Lord! I cant tell 700now. Promise me you'll coma!"

Nellie nodded. "Tea, HI came,"she said slowly, In a tired, bard voice.

Inside the parlor the doctor wasstanding over the conch,, straighteningthe Injured man's arms. As the oth-ers entered he looked up. "Ifs allover," he said. "The man Is dead.However, he told bis story first Itsounds vague, but I suppose Mr. Arcb-man will understand. Mr.' Akin—Where la Mr. Akin?" He looked abouthim Inquiringly. . -

Edith looked surprised. "I dontknow," she said. "He didn't comeInto the front hall. He must haveg6ne into the dining-room." ' Sheturned. "This is Miss Archman, doc-tor," she said. She did not IntroduceCarr, and Nellie, as she bowed grave-ly, noted that he had not entered theroom. . '

The doctor's face cleared. T m gladyou have come. Miss Archman," hesaid. "Your father's secretary washere a moment ago, but he has disap-peared mysteriously. I suppose he'llturn up soon. I wish the police wouldcome. Here they are.now!" Anotherring had sounded at the door.

It was not the police, however. Theopen door disclosed two men, one oldand the other young.

The elder man's face was drawn andpale. "Morbach 1" he exclaimed."Where Is he?" Then as DO one spokehe went on impatiently. "You tele-phoned me," he rasped. "I am Mr*Archman."

"Yes, I know you, Mr. Archman.*Edith stepped forward. "I'm sorry,but Mr. Morbach Is dead. He died tenminutes ago. This Is he I"

Archman stepped to the side of thecouch and stared at the dead man'sface. "I've known him forty years,"he said. "And now he's dead and I'mleft How did it happen?" He lookedup questlonlngly and saw his daugh-ter. "Nellie!" he exclaimed. "Yonhere? I thought I recognized the auto.How did this happen?"

Nellie glanced at the doctor, whomade haste to answer. "Auto acci-dent," he said tersely. "But thatdidnjt kill him. He was murdered—shot through the body."

"Murdered!" Archman's lips tight-ened. "Good G—d! It must havebeen—" He clutched at the doctor'sarm. "Did he leave any message-any word? They didn't get hla pa-pers, did they?"

Not No!" The doctor shook hishead consolingly. "No; your secretarygot here In time. Mr. Morbach gavehim papers and a message. It's allright. Your secretary has everything."

."My secretary? AVhat fool talk Isthis? This Is my secretary"—he in-dicated the younger man—"I got yourmessage after he started, and I caughtup with him at your gate."

The doctor's eyes widened. " I don'tunderstand," he muttered. "Mr. Akinwas here a moment ago. This gentle-man can't be he."

"It Is he. Don't you suppose I knowmy own secretary? If any one elseIs here, he's an Impostor. If any one—Where Is he? Let me see him!"

"He's goneT The doctor's voice washoarse.

"Gone! Gone! But he didn't"getMorbach's papers!" -\

'The doctor nodded. "Yes! He gotthem. He said he was Mr. Akin. Noneof us knew—"

'Nellie knew." Arcbman whirled onhis daughter. "What does this mean,Nellie?" he cried.

The girl shook her head. "I dldntsee him, father," she said. "He waswith Mr. Morbach when I came and—"

The doctor Interposed. "None of usknew him and none of us doubted him.Morbach gave him the papers. Were—were they very Important?"

"Important! Important!" Arch-man's face grew so red that it was al-most black. "What did he say, man?What did he say? Didn't yon hear?"

The doctor nodded. "Yes; we heard,"he answered. "He asked us to listen.He said -that some one whom youwould know was dying and wanted tosee 'her.' He had cabled and then hadcome himself, apparently fearing that

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Meaning of Baptism.

In order to appreciate the lessonfor today one should have an under-standing of the purpose of the Gospelaccording to Mark. In the Old Testa-ment Is set forth an august portraitof Jesus Christ Who Is the Branch,the King (Jer. 23:5). the Branch, theServant (Zech. 8:8), the Branch, theMan (Zech. 6:12), the Branch of Je-hovah (Isa. 4:2). The four-fold ac-count of the Gospels placed alongsideof these predictions fits exactly. Mat-thew exhibits Him as the PromisedKing, Mark as the Servant of Je-hovah, Luke as the Man Redeemerand John as the Son of God. Thetheme of Mark is the Gospel of Je-hovah's Servant (Chap. 1:1). The keyverse Is 10:46, and the key words are"straightway," "forthwith," "Immedl-itelyV

I. Who the Servant Is (v. 1)."Jesus Christ the Son of God.*

Jesus means Saviour. Christ meansAnointed. This Servant who so fullyand completely, obeys God's will lanone other than God's Son.

II. The Servant'a Forerunner (w.2-8).

1. Who He Was (w. 2-3). He wasJohn the Baptist 'His mission was toprepare the way for God's ServantHe was prophesied concerning morethan live hundred years before hecame. (Isa. 40:3).

2. His Message (w . 34).(1) "Prepare the Way of the Lord"

(v. 8). This means to remove fromyour hearts everything which hindersthe incoming* of the Lord, to breakdown the high places of pride and tostraighten out the crooked places, notonly to confess your sins, but to givesubstantial evidence of repentance.

(2) "Baptism of Repentance forthe Remission of Sins" (v. 4). Inpreparation for the coming of Christthe people were to repent and thosewho repented were to be baptised.Baptism was administered , to thoseirho repented as an expression'of thepenitence which led to the forgivenessof sin.

(8) The Coming of Christ (w . 7,8). This coming was to be muchgreater than that of John. Thissuperior dignity was not only in Hisperson but In the work He was toperform. John baptized with water,but Jesus was to be the baptlzer withthe Holy Ghost

8. His Success (v. 8). People fromall over Judea and from Jerusalemwent out and were baptized. John'sdress and demeanor were In keepingwith his stern mission. His food anildress Indicated that he had withdrawnfrom the world as a protest againstits follies and sins.

III. The Baptism of the 8ervant(w. 9-11).

While the forerunner was discharg-ing his office Jesus emerged from hisseclusion at Nazareth and demandedbaptism at John's hands.

1. Its Significance.Negatively. It was not because He

had sinned for He was absolutely sin-less, harmless, undefiled, separatefrom sinners. This separation was socomplete that even the Devil couldfind no occasion against Him. (John14:30). ,

Positively. Its significance is foundin harmony with the purpose of Hiscoming Into the world, which was tosecure for His people salvation throughdeath and resurrection. This act wasHis official entrance upon His work.. Itwas an act of consecration on hipart to the work of saving His peo-ple .through sacrifice. While baptismIs a sinner's ordinance. He was bap-tized, not because He had sinned, butbecause He took the place of sinners.He was so devoted to them that Heentered upon His mission by submit-ting to the ordinance which typifieddeath and resurrection. In this Hewho knew no sin was made sin forus that we might be made the right-eousness of God in Him (II Cor. 5:21).

2. Approval From the Open Heavens(w. 10, 11). Immediately followingHis consecration to His work theheavens were opened-and the Spiritcame-and'abode upon Him, followedby the words ot approval from theFather. All these were essential torthe work upon which He now en-tered.

When the news that the adjustedcompensation bill haa

over the Presidential veto by theate flashed from Washington to In-dianapolis where fifty or more Ameri-can Legion national executive commlt-teemen were In session, one name, andone namejmly was In their minds-John Thomas Taylor.

For more than Are years Taylor, ajoung Washington lawyer of recog-nlzed brilliance and an ardent Legion-naire, had been directing the Legion'sfight for passage of the.lull, lather aschairman or rice "•"'•nun of the Le-gion's national legislative committee,fie had been steering legislation bene-ficial to the disabled veterans and4>ther ex-service men. Be knew everysenator, every representative In Wash*Ington. He was liked for his winning

/personality, his brilliance of mind andbis ability to present a case convincing-ly to the men In whose hands rested thefate of legislation in which the Legionwas Interested. Six times be had gotthe adjusted compensation measurethrough the house by overwhelmingmajorities. Three times the senateliad given the bill Its support Onesfate intervened and blocked Its final•enactment; once the late PresidentHarding bad'swept away Taylor's ef-forts with a stroke of the pen.

• But this time, he intended nothing<o Interfere. The crucial moment hafArrived, and as Taylor says himself,"when the battle hi hottest, I thinkthe quicker and don't lose my head."

With consummate skill he brought thepressure to bear which defeated efforts«e have action by the senate delayed

te-at Indianapoua. Mr. Powell to

this pfasBM of Legion work.Mr. Powell's statement waa baaed

en the hundreds of requests whichhave been pouring into the communityand civic betterment bureau, a di-vision of tbe Americanism commis-sion, for advice on various subjectsand for copies of the new pamphletTour Post and Tour Town," for dis-tribution by th« Legion's bureau.

"While we have many reports con-cerning posts which have already as-sumed some community responsibility.It Is, Indeed, surprising bow manyLegionnaires are piw^i^g campaignsfor betterment of conditions aboutthem," Mr. Powell declared. "Bequestsfor direction along these lines are re-ceived dally, and Indicate that con-structive work for their neighbors Istiie principal aim of this great groupof ex-service men," he said.

Mr. Powell said there was no in-tention on the part of the Legionto supplant any agency engaged hiwork of this character, but that theLegion'* broad membership wouldqualify It as an agency best equippedto align all community endeavor.

"The volume of the requests re-ceived decided the course of the newbureau, handling this work," Mr.Powell said. "The gnat number ofthese requests dearly indicate thatLegion men are thinking In lines ofcommunity service and are seekingbest channels of expression In tbevarious lines. As a consequence, thacommunity and civic betterment bu-reau to to function prlndpally In anadvisory capadiy."

Advice furnished'by the bureau willextend to every phase of communitydevelopment and civic betterment ac-cording to Mr. Powell. Perhaps moststress will be laid on recreation orsome activity which will tend to oc-cupation of the leisure tune of thenation, but he declares this clearlyantidpates civic betterment; Includingcommunity building, memorials,-play-grounds and recreation centers,health conservation, philanthropic ad-ministration, municipal progress andgeneral community organization.

"Because members of the AmericanLegion represent' every class In thecountry," Mr. Powell declared, "I pre-dict that the organisation will go farto accomplishments for the nation-leading to ideal conditions of Ameri-can citizenship."

Burning of Lights WillCure.Overcharging Load

Many motorists In driving along theroad in the: daytime have wonderedwhy they wouhk pass so many canwith the headlights turned on full.There Is always an explanation foreverything.

In touring, especially at speed, thebattery Is liable to be overcharged.This will cause the battery to heat,which is anything but good for It Theactive material in the plates loosensand falls to the bottom of tbe cells,causing the battery to operate at re-duced efficiency. Although practicallyevery car's electrical system Is fittedwith an automatic cutout to preventsuch overheating, it is often the casethat this device does not stand guardover the battery the way It should.

The safe way Is, of course, to burnthe lights—at least part of the t i m e -when on a-longdrlve.—This helps totake the load off the battery and willprevent* IfToverheaHngiTn view of this,perhaps when we see a motorist goingalong hi the daytime with his lightsburning we can consider that he Is awise driver Instead of a careless Indi-vidual who has forgotten to turn offthe Illumination the night before.

The prominent part the 148 nationalforests play in the recreational activi-ties and outdoor life of tbe nation Isemphatically brought home by tbefact that nearly 10.000.00A personsvisited these forests during 1928, ac-cording to the final tabulation madeby tbe forest service, United StatesDepartment of Agriculture.

The Importance of the automobilei a means of conveyance to recrea-

tion seeken Is shown by the furtherfact that more than eight out of tenforest visitors, or over 8,000,000, cameIn privately-owned cars, while motorbusses accounted for an additional•fraction of the total Hikers andthose who used the railroads madeup the balance.

Prevent Forest Fires. - __• ,The enormous number of automo-

bile travelers who enter tbe nationalforests in sll parts of the UnitedStates emphasises the need of spread-Ing the gospel of forest-fire preventionamong all motorists^ ofltdals of theforest service say.

Colonel W. B. Oreeley, chief forest-er, has stated that 80 per cent of allforest- fires In the country—thosewithin national forests as well as onprivately-owned land—are: the resultof human carelessness. To stop thiscarelessness and to bring about arealisation of what America's forestsmean to the-country's prosperity wastbe aim of Forest.Protectton week,

"The most formidable agency offorest destruction and prevention ofreforestation Is fire," states the chiefof the forest service, "and of the fireswhich annually devastate vast areas,four-fifths are ascribed to humanagencies, and virtually all may becontrolled and made Innocuousthrough prudence, care, and vigi-lance."

Chief Causes of Fire.Among the, chief causes of forest

fires, declares the forest service, Iscarelessness, with cigarettes, cigars,pipe ashes, matches, and camp fires.

, "The floor of a wooded area," saysChief Forester Oreeley, "Is composed ofhighly Inflammable materials, and allthat is needed In dry weather to starta fire is to toss a burning match, cig-arette, or cigar over the side of a ma-chine. This Is especially true If thereis any wind to fan the blaze. Campflres built without first scraping awayalt inflammable material, or which arebuilt dose to brush and trees, arealso first-class'forest fire breeders.

"The national forests belong to thepublic, and the public Is welcomed byall officers of the forest service.Since 1917 the number of recreationseeken has trebled. Almost 10.000,-000 visited the 146 national forestsduring 1923.

"But in the Interests of nationalsafety the forest service Is bound toemphasize the hazards, arising fromcarelessness with fire in the woods,not only in those areas owned by thefederal government but In privately-owned areas as well.

"No dtlzen should calmly sit backand say It's no business of mine1 aslong as forest fires destroy lives andproperty every year. The acreageswept by fires has averaged 11,000,000acres for the past seven years, andthe value of the timber and propertydestroyed, has averaged $16,500,000.Every foot of timber destroyed in thisway adds to the economic burdens ofevery citizen as the civilization ofAmerica is founded on the free use ofwood.

INDUSTRIAL HISTORY INTHE MAKING

Fort Smith, Art , guarding the riverford In Indian days, haa looked downen dramatic events. Today It Is at acrossroads in Industrial developmentas it was once at a crossroads In pio-neering. It Is reached by a wett-of-the-MlssissIppl that never carries a"diner"—yet is It a metropolis, an in-dustrial center. And like all industrialcenters nowadays. It wants women InIts Industries.

Two wholesale clothing houses, apaper-box plant, a button factory, two"pants and overall" factories, and Iknow not what In tbe line of farm sup-ply houses now surround the old graypile of tbe fort, and furnish a spirit ofbustle and success that runs up anddown the streets. Country-bred girlsare sucked in to Join local women instore and office and factory, aa theyare sucked Into the industrial whirl-pool of New York and San Franciscoand Chicago—out with a difference.

What woman holda the most Inter-esting Job in Fort 8mltht That's bardto say. It's hard to discover evenwhen you're right on the spot Cer-tainly one of the Interesting ones Isthe Job oft presiding over what anImaginable person might call the In-take pipe to the suction pump of FortSmith Industries. She Is the littlewoman hi black suit and crisp whiteblouse—and oh, a most understandingsmile!—who wean a Travelers* Aidbutton and presides over the stationwaiting room. (I warned you thatFort Smith is citified. It's also veryup-and-coming about having all thenew wrinkles In town management,and the Travelers' Aid desk U only asample.)

There Is enough time and space andgeneral spirit of being Interested inyour neighbor to make Fort Smith stillkeep the best of Its small-town habits.So Miss Jennie Stevens, the aid lady,isn't expected to catalogue the womenthat she meets. She doesn't send ruta hasty postcard to some person orother, "This will introduce FannyBmlth. She needs a small room tillshe gets her first pay envelope"; andthen never know whether Fanny getsIt or not

Instead, when Fanny Smith, on barfirst ventura from Blanksburg, driftsIn minus a Job, minus., friends, minuseven a place to sleep, the aid lady be-comes Fanny's first friend. She knowspersonally most of the people she call*up before she sends Fanny out to meetthem, and six months from now shellprobably know Just how Fanny hi get-ting on hi work, and love affairs, too.

To my mind, the aid lady has thebest Job. But there's a sort of humaninterest quality about mast of thoseFort Smith Jobs tbit the Chicago oneslack!

B l OAHEFUL THIS SU

Careless campers who leavetheir fires burning in the woodsor tos« lighted cigar and cigar-ette stubs into the brush, buntedlast cason more i 'mbei'laml tliai.was cut by all SJIV,.I jls in thecountry all year.

Reforestation has been recog-nized for years as one of thegreat necessities. Something isbeing accomplished in this direc-tion. But forest fires at presentwipe out much more timber everyyear than is being regrown.

Records kept by the forestservice show that every year thearea of forest land, swept by fireis about twice as great as thearea cut over by logging opera-tions:""

Four-fifths of the fires areman made. They might beprevented" by the exercise of or-dinary care; Most of them startfrom hot coals left by campersor picnickers or from lighted cig-arette butts, and some of themcome through carelessness of set-tlers in burning up stump pilesand brush heaps.

The. _burned-over acreage islargely cutoyer land, which re-duces the monetary loss, but O.epotential destruction is neverthe-,less terrific, for the fires on the'cut-over acreage destroy seedsand young growth that would re-forest the land.

The forestry service says thefirst important step in reforesta-tion is to' start the growth on thecutover land, and on much ofthis land "effective protectionagainst fire will be all that is-necessary for this purpose.

many young men to seek clerical alt-nations which, owing to the targe num-ber of candidates, are underpaid. Dn-der these circumstances It Is evidentthat any action tending to a moreeconomical distribution of tabor Is ben-eficial not only to the Individual bntalso to the community. With this ob-ject In view the municipal authori-ties of Troyes and commercial andtrade organisations -established aChamber of Trades. The activity ofthe chamber was first directed towarda reform in apprenticeship. Under aspecial form of contract the employermust deposit with the chamber a sumequal to one-fifth of the wages of theapprentice, says 8chool Life. Thissum together with Interest thereon ispaid to the apprentice when be hascompleted hla contract It lias beenarranged that teachers^ln the publicschools keep records showing apti-tudes of pupils, and several hundredpop/Is have been thus aided In thechoice of a manual profession.

One of the most significant depar-tures In colonial, administration hasbeen undertaken by the Holland gov-ernment, which has .granted complete.autonomy to the Island's colonies of

Java, Sumatra and Celebes. The na-tives will elect members who will sitIn the parliament at The Hague. Hol-land Is the second largest colonialpower In the world, comparativelyspeaking. The population of the DutchEast Indies is close to 60,000.000,while la natural resources the Islandsare unsurpassed In the Bast Tinpolicy of England and Holland, thetwo greatest empire builders In theworld, has always been to bind the na-tives' Interest to their own. A delegs-tlon will start shortly from the Philip-pine Islands to study the system 0colonial administration at first handIn Java. ~ —* —

If the "voice of the people"means anything as expressed inthe; country presjs of this nation,it says, "Give us safe, sane andsound government. Keep ourindustries and payrolls going andgive us reasonable taxation."Candidates or public officials ofall.."political parties will do wi>llto heed "the" voice."

Scourge Known as "Black Death."Tha name "Black Death" was given

to the epidemic that devastated Awiaand Blurope In the Fourteenth century.It was so called from the black spotsthat appeared upon the skin at thethne of death, and was probably ahighly malignant form of typhus fever.The scourge ravaged China In 13.'!3-184T and carried off 13.OCO.000 of ItsInhabitants, and 24,000,000 In other

- parts of Asia.The Black Death first appeared in

Europe In 1342, but It was not untilAugust. 1848, that It reached England.In London 100,000 persons died of It,and In Norwich over 60,000. It Is esti-mated that the victims of this onevisitation numbered from one-third toonotbalf of the entire population ofEngland, which, at that time waa abouT5,000,000. The Black Death reappearedIn Europe In 1360, 1373 and 1382. ItIs said to have carried off In all Itsvisitations more than 30,000.000 Eu-ropeans.

Medical science has demonstratedduring the great war that It can al-most renovate the whole human body.Still, It was never called upon to per-form the particular task accomplishedby Dr. Charles Sweet, of Osslnlng, re-cently. A baby was born which had nomouth. There was a formation ofakin ano) membrane where the outeropening of the mouth normally Is andthere was no roof to the interior.The doctor first made the necessaryroof, "I could look through the noseright In the throat," he said. DoctorSweet raised the flesh and bones andmade the root He cut a slit in thetender flesh when the mouth is to be.Within a month he will attempt aplastic .operation with a view to givingthe child a set of lips. The baby Isdoing well sjid so is modern surgery.

Zoologists and biologists will findfood for Interesting observations Inthe freak chicken tfcat has arrived atthe Bronx zoo. The chicken hns thefacial features of a monkey, a pugnose, a tongue like a South Americanant-eater, and the feathers of a regularWhite Orpington. It has no beak anddrinks water like a mammal. Tlwstudy of nature is Inexhaustible. Bywhat laws of natural selection didthis Dpectmen come Into the world amiwhat monstrosities may not be bred ifthe law that produced the monkey-chicken is discovered and applied else-where?

TIM We Meet Again.'In her "Glimpses of Authors" llias

Caroline Tlcknor of the same Ttcknorfamily that has so long been associat-ed with publishing, tells of many de-lightful passages between authors midthe.ancient firm of Messrs. Tlcknor &Fields. A business correspondencewith Hark Twain must have been moatenjoyable for his publisher. One lettersent to him dosed with hope that:"God be with you, for I cannot Tours,B. H. Tlcknor." Twain returned thesheet, at the foot of which he had In-scribed the words: "Dear Tlcknor: Hedidn't come. It has been a great dis-appointment to the whole family.Hereafter, appoint a party we can de-pend on. Youra^Uark."

Honor In the Orient Is a seriousmatter. A lecturer before the Jap-anese society in London points outthat many Asiatics avoid athletic con-tests because they"disllke-defeatr Thefatalistic and feudalists East doesnot accept defeat lightly. It must winor file In the attempt. And. as renunissome contests, the East Is quite cor-rect, Rays the • Baltimore Sun. Theprize winner In the "safety first" con-text of the American Railway associa-tion submitted a grade crossing signwhich bore the words: "WaltI Tonmay lose!" Is it poor sportsmanshipto follow that-advlce?

The third California District Courtof Appeals decided that a pedestrianhns a right to walk in the road If hewants to.

•**• Bread was sent to a motherin France, and—«fter tasting it—such was her wonder and delightthat she exclaimed:

'It is not bread-it is cake,"

This pretty tribute was not meantfor us, as this mother thought. Itwas aimed directly at the 43,040housewives who jointly showedus how they wanted Bond Breadmade. For these women did show

contests t to give us models forBond Bread. ;Mothers are the same the worldover*—and here in New; Englandthey know that Bond Bread is notcake, but simply a good wholesomebread with a flavor that childrenlove. And they know that 43,040housewives designed Bond Bread,using only the purest ingredients.

By means of a Bond .on eachwrapper, we guarantee to youthat, only those sams pure home

MARKETING HAY INONE-POUND CARTONS

metead of hanungthetr bay 88 nuleato tbe nearest market as they did for aannber of Tears, farmers of WhitePine county, Nevada, a n BOW keepingthe hay at home, feeding It to dairycows, making their cream into bnttefIn e co-operative creamery, and selling

W. N. U, NEW YORK, Ntt

their butter to the towns that formed*bought their hay. For some years al-falfa hay, the main cash crop In twocommunities, had been selling for leesthan the cost of production. To rem-edy this condition, progressive farm-ers and the county extension agentmade a careful study of the posstbll-tttes of developing other sources offarm income. They found that themining towns whloh bought their haywere also Importing nil -butter needfrom distant dairy centers, payinghigh transportation rates. As manyfarmers had a few cows, it was decid-ed to try marketing the hay In theform of butter. A creamery was or-ganised, the dairy specialist of thestate agricultural college trained but-ter makers, and churning was begunIn May, 1028, averaging at first about100 pounds a week. Herds have In-creased In production as skill in feed-ing developed, and the market has ex-tended as the excellent quality of thebutter became known. By the end ofthe year, according to reports to theUnited States Department of Agrlcultore, the butter sales averaged morethan 11.0Q0 a month and demand stillgreatly exceeded the supply.

Pastures Provide MostEconomical Cow Forage

Dairy farmers are urged to maketheir plans for'growing next year'sfeed crop, In a statement made pub-lic by A. 0, Baer, head of the dairy de-partment at Oklahoma A. and M. col-lege.

Here follows a list of crops whichBaer says will furnish cheap, but ex-cellent feed. for dairy stock:

Early wheat, barley or rye pasture.Improved native pasture. 'Sweet clover pasture for early sum-

mer. ••; : . . . ' •Sudan grass pasture for late sum-

mer.Early fall wheat or barley pasture.Alfalfa hay for supplementary or

winter feeding.Prairie hay for snplementary or

winter feeding.Row crops, corn, kaflr or cane for

the silo.Oowpeas or soy beans for bay If

alfalfa cannot be grown."Pastures provide the most econom-

ical forage for dairy cattle."

Minerals for Dairy Cows"Complex salt mixtures should not

be purchased by farmers." asserts theWisconsin experiment station. "Ifthe cow Is getting good clover or al-falfa hay In addition to her grainsand silage the only thing she needsIn addition Is some common salt, pos-sibly some bone meal or wood ashes,and, If necessary potassium or sodi-um Iodide to prevent goiter. ThereIs absolutely no need to spend moneyfor any other minerals."

Cows Develop UnevenlyDairy cows grow unevenly. Recent

tests In Missouri show that the firstspurt of development comes beforebirth, at the age of five or six months.The second spurt begins two monthsbefore birth and ends four and a halfmonths after birth. The third spurtbegins at about a year after birth andends twenty-six months after birth. Tocash In on these facts,'feed an abun-dance when growth Is naturally mostrapid.

Soy Beans Gain FavorSoy beans are steadily growing In

favor among dairymen. They bavesome advantage over tbe two cropspreviously mentioned. When properlyinoculated, they will grow on soilsmore add in nature than alfalfa or redclover. They produce a good yield ofpalatable hay If cut when the beansare just starting to form. Whenweather conditions are favorable, thehay can usually be harvested withoutlosing many of the leaves. .

Alfalfa Hay Is LeaderGood alfalfa hay is generally placed

at the head 'of the list of. roughagessuitable for dairy cows. Little needbe said of Its merits as a roughage.Were It not for the add condition' ofthe soil In many districts, the erspwould be grown much more extensive-ly than it now Is. - To overcome this,dairymen are advised to make an ap-plication of lime and Include aDalfa Inthe ration.

Inexpensive Fly, Spray*A spray commonly used by Iowa

dairymen and recommended by thedairy.section at Iowa Stato college,.to made by mixing four- and one-halfquarts of coal tar din, foorf and one-half Quarts of fish on. three Quarts ofcoal oil, three euarts of whale ell andone and one-half quarts of oil of tar.Dissolve three pounds of laundry soap,add the spray mixture and dilute thewhole to thirty gallons with lukewsm•oft water.

RECENT METHOD OPFEEDING CHICKENS

• new system tor feedtBg chicks hasbeen substituted by the University ofMew Hampshire tor that previouslyrecommended by that Institution.

When the chicks are taken from theIncubator and placed under the brood-er stove, they should be given a drinkof a mixture of sour milk or buttermilkin which have been beaten up aboutthree eggs yolks per quart of milk.This mixture should be accessible forthe first 24 hours they are under thebrooder stove. Por the next sevendays they should be fed five tunes aday with a sufficient amount of chickfeed—which may be a mixture ofequal parts of fine cracked corn, finecracked wheat, and steel-cut oats—tolast ten minutes. As soon as this mix-ture Is eaten, they should be given asufficient amount of an egg-and-mashmixture to last them about ten minutesmore, made with 12 egg yolks to eachone and one-half pounds of mash, andmixed thoroughly to produce really acrumbly -mixture. Enough of thismash should be fed to provide one eggyolk to eaeh 30 chicks dally.

The second week this feeding shouldbe continued if a sufficient supply ofeggs Is available. Toward the end ofthe second week the regular laying drymash may be given an hour both morn-Ing and afternoon, Increasing thelength of time until it is constantlybefore the chicks. :

The eggs used In this mixture maybe those taken out of the'Incubator onthe seventh and fourteenth-day tests.They will aid materially In the de-velopment of the chicks and will pre-vent leg weakness to a large extentIf no eggs are available, a pint of cod-liver oil mixed with 100 pounds ofmnsh may be substituted for the egg-and-mash mixture.

From the time the chicks are threeweeks old, they should We fed threetimes a day with equal" parts of mashand chick feed. '

Why Does Sour SkimmilkEncourage Hens to Lay?

A year ago the Idaho College of Ag-riculture, through the department ofpoultry husbandry, started an experi-ment to determine the; cause of thehigh production secured from layinghens that were given an abundanceof sour, skim milk. A study of theanalysis of sour skim milk showed Itto contain 80.77 per cent••water, 0.10per cent fat. 3.03 per cent milk sugar(lactose), 0.5 per cent lactic add,S.5 per cent protein and 0.79 per centmilk ash or salts. It was assumedthitt water alone was not the stimu-lating factor. The.fat content seemedtoo low, and the distribution of car-bohydrates did not point to milk su-gar as a possible source of the prob-lem. A comparison was made of ra-tions containing lactic acid, milk salts,protein—free sour skim milk and sourskim milk. The results showed concluslvely that lactic add in the samesolution as In sour skim milk Is value-less for egg production. Besides bothmilk salts and ash entirely failed tostimulate Increased egg production.The results all seem to Indicate that ItIs the valuable part of sour skim milk.For two years, the protein-free sourskim milk has not given as satisfactoryproduction as the sour skim milk. Afurther study 1» being made Into thisInteresting problem. Pens are nowbeing compared In which rations contalnlng milk curd, milk ^case, proteinfree sour skim milk and sour skimmilk are given.

Green Feed ProblemWhere the hens have free range,

the problem of green feed takes prettygood care of Itself, especially if cloveror alfalfa"' fields' are convenient Butbare yards are a nuisance. They notonly curtail egg production at a timewhen eggs can be manufactured cheap-er than at any other time of the year,but they bring about disease and en-courage a general filthy condition thatIs detrimental to present and futureflocks.

INDIANA UNIVERSITYWILL OPEN STADIUM

Expect Structure Ready forRose Poly Game.

Indiana university, which more thantwo years ago began raising a fund fortbe construction of a modern footballand athletic stadium, is to see thedream of many years reach fruition onSeptember 27 when the Rose Poly andIndiana elevens inaugurate the newconcrete ellipse at Bloomlngton. Plansfor the Inaugural game have beenall but completed and It.Is hoped tomake this a memorable occasion. In-diana university has been striving formany years to finance this stadium,and the vision of the alumni and stu-dents who have worked hard In theraising of the fund seems destined tobe realized in full. . _

The present plans call for the sta-dium to.be turned'over to the Indianauniversity trustees September 1. Thecontractors have promised that deliv-ery will be made on that dateTand" un-less some unforeseen hitch arises theInaugural game with Rose Poly willbe played in the new home of football.

This concrete ellipse, crowned bytwe rising memorial towers, Is thelatest design among stadia that hassprung up In the Middle West ilncefootball gained such a tremendoushold on the followers of the gridirongame-in that section of the country.Work on the Indiana stadium washalted during the winter after con-struction of the cement sides had pro-gressed favorably last fall.

In order to build a playing field thatwill be. on a par with any In the coun-try, a wide hunt was made for thedesired loam, and some forty carloadswere required to surface the field.According to Athletic Director Zora O.Clevenger, the plans call for a gradedfield one foot higher In the center thanat the sides, assuring a good drain-age. An elaborate system of lateraldrainage sewers also Is to be con-structed, eliminating many of thetroubles that were experienced at 3o*dun field, the old home of Indianafootball teams. The .first Big Ten tobe played this year In the new stadiumwill take place November 8, when In-diana and Ohio State meet In theirannual classic. On this occasion asecond* dedication will take place.

it wan a vivid recital of almost un-believable adventure and achievementutfuinst overwhelming odds, a storytuut ut the time was submerged by" thegreater drama ot the war as a whole

General Haller, at the beginning: ottlie World war, was an officer in theAturtro-Hungiirlan army, holding animportant command on the Beasarabl-un front. Many of the men under himwere Poles. It was his hope that oatof the war a-free Poland might arise—a hope tliat was encouraged by falsepromise* from the Germans and Ana*triuns. ' ' ."

' jBerman Duplicity Revealed.To attain their coveted free land.

General Haller and hla men .foughtbravely against the Russians, but whenthe czar was overthrown and Russiabecame a republic, the general said hecould see no reason for further waragainst the Slavs.

Shortly afterward the Kerenaky gov-ernment In Russia was overthrown by:.,e Uolshe'vlltl and the war on the east. i-oni collapsed. The treaty of Brest-Lttovslc was signed and the Poles dis-covered that the promises of-the G*r-.aaus and Austrlans were false andthat Poland had been partitioned.•gain, Russia still retaining a slice.

"Declared Wai" on Germans.It was then General Haller made his

great decision., Although he had aforce of only three thousand men, he.declared war on Austria and Germany.He "camouflaged" his plan, to use hisown expression, and lstned an orderfor a night maneuver. The Austrianstaff was aware of the order, however,and when General Haller started to-ward the Russian border, fightingbroke out between his own troops andHose at whose side they so recently

ml fonghtHe won through finally, but' lost his

nrtlUery and supply trains. He wasout on a great desert virtually, a landthat had been devastated by the move-ments of vast armies or was com-posed largely of swamps. But be wentahead. Reaching a town on theDnieper river, he fonnd himself sur-rounded by a force of fourteen thou-sand Germans. A battle followed andat the conclusion, which General Hallerhimself ordered, the Germans offeredfull honors of war If be would surren-der. He refused and added a newwrinkle to military strategy—be dis-persed his army.

"We could have gone on fighting."he said, "but there would only havebeen a few more dead Polish heroesnnd no Polish army."

He .Issued a proclamation to his men,telling them to scatter In small groups

' nnd assemble later when they heardfrom him. ' '

Called on Poles to Fight.General Haller effected his own es-

cape and reached Moscow. Then heIssued a proclamation that made himfamous. It was addressed to "Polishsoldiers, wherever they may be found"and called upon them to Join him Ina war to free Poland..

The Immediate response was fromPoles within Russia—who had foughteither with. the Russian or Austrianarmies, the'latter category having beenmade prisoners of war. With aboutfour thousand men, General Hallerproceeded to Murmansk, In the extremenorth of; Russia, where there was asmall allied expedition. When hereached there, General Haller went toGeneral Poore, commanding the Brit-ish force, and offered his small armyto aid.the allies.

"But whom do yon represent?" theBritish general asked.

"The independent republic of Po-land," was the reply, and it was thefirst-time in nearly six hundred yearsthat a free Poland laid claim to rec-ognition.

"I Am the Government.''"But where is your government)"

was the next question."I am the government," General

Haller replied."Where Is your flag?""Here." And, reaching into his

tunic, General Haller produced a smallflag that had been made by some wom-en In one of the villages in which hehad stopped for a time.

The result was the signing of. anagreement that gave.PoIand.reat hopefor freedom and opportunity to aid Infighting for It General Haller wentto France, where he took command oftwenty-five thousand Poles from Amer-ica, who. had volunteered when thecall went forth, and formed two dl-

" visions, which received high praisefrom the allied commanders.

The armistice came—too soon forhtm. General Haller said, because bedesired to carry the war from bom* toGermany and dictate terms from B*r-Unr-and the Polish? army marcti*dacross Germany to put into being tha*for which they had struggled for morethan four years and to meet and hurfback^ the":tide.;'of bolshevisin '.which:threatened: to; e n g u l f : ; ^ \

The general took advantage of ths>opportunity to deny charges that Po-land was a "militarist" nation. Hepointed out that bis country lackednatural defensive frontiers to act asbarriers against invasion and situatedas It Is between Germany and Russia,must be ready to meet enemies ontwo sides. Hence It Is necessary forPoland to maintain an army consider-ably larger than usually required In acountry of Its s l» , he said.

It was explained that General HallerIs not commander In chief of the Po-lish armies, but occupies a positionsimilar to General Pershlng's la ibiscountry. . .

Assertions by some poUtieiaas thatsmall banks generally are tebalcal tothe Federal Reserve System were potto the tost recently by a committeesppomted by John D. Phillips, presi-dent of the 8tate Bank Division ofthe American Bankers' Association bymeans of a questionnaire sent to U<000 state banks. The result indicatedthat an overwhelming majority ofthem are, la fact, friendly to theSystem.

Two questions were pat to thebanks. The first was as follows:

"Do yon believe that the FederalReserve System has bosh beneficialto the agricultural, commercial andbanking interests of the, country andthai) it should be perpetuated?"

To this 4.934 replies were received.Ot these 4.014 voted "yes'* withoutqualification, and only U voted "»a."Further, answers still coming In whenthis tabulation was made Indicatedthe same favorable trend.

The second question asked by Mr.Phillips' committee was:

"If your not being a member shouldcontribute to the destruction of theSystem, would yon Joint" '

While tbe great majority ot thestate banks are not members of theSystem, largely for technical reasons,the answers showed that tho'Pnlk otthose non-members who are eligibleto Join would do so If such action werenecessary to* save the System. To'his second question 1.87* have been'recorded as voting "yes" and only725 as "no." Many refrained fromvoting oa this question because un-der the present rules, they are In-eligible tor membership.

Some replies voiced certain crit-icisms of the System, bnt these uni-versally dealt with -details of admin-istration or of the rules and not withthe principles of the institution.

RECONSTRUCTIONA man came Into a Nebraska bank

in the spring of 19U. and asked* forfinancial assistance. His statementprepared In the Service Departmentshowed he was about bankrupt; thathe owed f 1.200 more than his equip-ment was worth. He had a farm rent-ed for the year. Further credit badbeen refused him in his own/bank andhe was about ready to quit and applythe proceeds from the sale of hisequipment to his debts.

Tbe bank's Service Man went withhim1 to his farm and after an exami-nation decided that If the farmer bada half dosen cows and ten brood sowsbe would probably be sble to use hispasture and Intended com crop to ad-vantage. The bank finally loaned him11.200 for this purpose and took achattel mortgage on the stock pur-chased as Its security. The bank ad-mitted, that ordinarily a loan shouldnot be made like that, but tbe farmwas close to town and tbe stock couldreadily be resold.

When the end of the year camearound the exact records showed thatthe family bad been well maintainedand on half of the cream cheeks; theother, half bad been applied on bis$660 note at the bank, covering theloan for the cows. Five days beforethe year, was up the principal and In-terest on the note were entirely paidby. crea mchecks. The pigs affordeda net gain of SL400 after all expenseswere paid.

In addition to this financial gam.the farmer was taught the "value of »good cow and the necessity of keep-ing a record of his. operations to knowwhich farm operations are profitable.Thi Farm Service Department of tbebank was able to teach this manthings he had never dreamed about.It to worth the effort the banks wouldbe called upon to make If each bankcould bnt turn, one broken, discour-aged farmer Into a prosperous one.—9mk»r-Farmer.
