THE MODERN FUNERAL

When one considers the responsibilities resting upon thosewho care for and dispose of the human dead, he will not be sur-prised that the profession of the erhbalmer and funeral director isone which deserves serious thought. ^ ,

The improper handling of a person dead of a contagious dis-ease may bring sickness and death to the community. _

Funeral directors and embalmers are constantly seeking betterlegislation concerning the sanitary disposition of the dead. Hadit not been for the aggressive action, of the National Funeral Direc-tors' Association there would not have been formed regulations for

- the transportation-of-dead^bodiesr- .,

The discovery of new disinfectants and the proper application/ of the old are subjects of daily thought on the part of the modern

mortician. . .

Council Wednesday .night discussedat some length the proposition to pur-chase the Verrilpf:property, the blocklocated between .the two railroads atthis place, the former home of JudgeR. J. Bynea, founder of Hammonton.If appears that the owner of the prop-erty has two cash offers for the same,but for sentimental reasons wouldsell the property to the municipality ata figure less than the highest offer.

Councilman J.L..O'Donnell spoke inhigh, favor ,61.Earchasing-.the tract,stating .that lot J»any years he hadbelieved' the toiOTi should acquire it.Thomas Bt Delker called the attentionof Council to-the-fact that the Read-ing Railway would'likely purchase agood sized strip facing their-depot,and eventually make a decided im-provement at that point. Also thatthe abominable curve at the Pennsytracks could be eliminated by wideningthe street between the two railroads.Freeholder Fredirick C. Burt favoredthe purchasS of; the site, but felt thatthe price asked, ?C7,600, was too highEngineer JoaepikA. Bakerjavored thepurchase. Herbert'C. Doughty, presi-dent of the, Cnjttnber of Commerce,also favors the ^purchase if the priceis made lovrar. !JK, Ruberton also fav-ored the buying Of the tract, as doesHarry M. Burkr local merchant.

••GET TIIB: MONEY BOYS"Several .poultry raisers of this

place are exhibiting birds at the EggHarbor fair. It is believed here thatthe-greater rjortlon-of^the-honors_9fihep fair will coWe to Hammonton. Infact, Hammontph was the only placein Atlantic county visited by Prof. H.R. Lewis, and -the accompanyingpoultrymen, on': the occasion pf therecent tour of thie-State. This wouldIndicate that it is the point above allothers in -that .respect, in Atlanticcounty. In Consequence it shouldreap the major portion of the awards.

In place of abrilliant headlight th$re had been sub-stituted a' small-larftern of the kindused, by-engineers'when making re-pairs on their jengine, which emittedEI feeble gleam ;of light, and probablybecame totally.extinguished whenrouding some -at "the curves in theroad.

that permits'thtfsuWatitution of _a light when the headlight goes outof commission is mild punishment forfailure to provide a better substitute,as the style of light used that night)ut lures to danger and deatli thosecrossing the tracks.

FOR BETTER GOVERNMENTAtlantic county's first woman can-

didate for the Assembly urges allwomen to register. Mrs. Mary NorthChenoweth says that in the interestof better politics every woman whocan qualify as a voter should see to itthat she is properly registered on Sep-tember 14.

In going through the county Mrs.Chenoweth-found-~that many of thenewly enfrachised voters were underthe impression that all registrationwould be attended to at, the polls,whereas the election laws provides foia house-to-house canvass in all townswith a population of less than 15,000.

"I regard this very comfortable ar-rangement for the women in thesmaller communities as a rathermixed blessing," added Mrs. Cheno-weth. "It is so very easy tospik a woman here and a womanthere, and the officials have fromTuesday to Friday to complete theircanvass. If any woman fails to haveher registration taken on the four-teenth she should herself seek out theomcials ana remedy their oversight nolate* than the following day/'

Asked as to her own campaign forthe Assembly, Mrs. Chenoweth assert-ed that the wamen in bringing 100 pertent, more voters 'to the electorate feltthat they were entitled to representa-tion by ona of their own number inthe lower house of the Legislature,and that such representation would benecessary if women are really to par-ticipate, in the' government of ourcountry,.

Rush of Bachelors to Europe" for Wives

WASHINGTON.—America, only nn-tion In which men outnumber

*vomen. now Is .supplying husbands forwomen of Europe, where there arenot enough males to go around, re-ports to the Immigration bureau in-dlcate. --

Approximately 343.0OO persons, most-ly men. sailed from the United StatesIn the year ended with June, accord-ing to reports to Commissioner Gen-eral Camlnetu of the Immigration bu-reau.

"Large numbers of the men left toget married." said Cnmlnettl.

Furthermore, single European wom-en and women widowed by the warare, rushing to the United States Inthe hope of securing husbands, reports

gathered from reliable sources Indicate,"A majority of the Immigrants t - i

the Onlte<l States are women." Cnml-nettl said. Immigrants totaled OOTi.OO i/ luring, the. i;ear.. _Women greatly out-number tlie men in Knglanci, France.Italy and In nearly all European countries. This is partly n\result of tin-war. After tlie armistice thousandsoffEncrllsh women sailed to Austral iaand otheY colonies, nurnhers of themfrankly stating they were KofrtK to tlniihusbands. Some had hecnnip enfiaw!to AuKTrnMnn~soii l lers on leave In Kujr-Innd during the war. Others said theyhoped to he mnPrled In Australia."

In tbe United States men liave nt-wnys' outnumbered women. _The_lfll ' '

' census "'showed there" were approxi-mately 2.000.000 more men than wonj-

_en_fjfteen years of age or over.The number of single men outnum-

bered single women by more thanS.OIXl.OOO. Now the discrepancy be-tween the sexes Is far more pro-nounced than In 191ft the present cen-sus Is expected to show.

Bachelors In the United Statos totalmorejlmn 25.300.(!00. It Is estimated,while spinsters probably do not exceedi9.noo:ooo.

This Piece of News Is° Important If TrueWHEN Senator Cawrenee Y. Sher-

man of Illinois was practicinglaw In Macomb, III., he lived for atime at a hotel there that was en-deavoring to maintain certain ,stand-,nrds of clasis and tone.

The shirt he thus~~ejcposed may nothave been as natty ns those shownon young men who ride In motorboatsIfi the shirt and collar advertisements,but It was. clean nnd tho colors weroconservative. Within n moment' ortwo after Sherman took off his coat,however, the proprietor of tho hotelwent to him and tolil 'ilm In. n low.tone that eating in ono'n shirtsleeveswan contrary to the pomp and dignityof the establishment. .

Sherman glared nt liliu nnd statedthat men In shirtsleeves nro, for tho

_most_part,' tho tollers nndtlio bulwark of this great nation.

To this the proprietor merely smiledtentatively and declared that whileall that Sherman suld might bo true,

yet shirtsleeves didn't go In the dinIng room of bis hotel.

Then Sherman Issued nn ultimatum.He saHl he would finish his meal Inhis shirtsleeves unless stopped by thepolice, nnd that In future. If the objec-tion continued, he would ent nt another hotel or oh a street corner-that In any event he would not weara coat again at mealtime until Sep-tember 15.

packed a bag for his journey, left abrief note for Shirley notifying her ohis departure, and started on bis twohundred and fifty-mile trip over themountains to the south. As his cmsped through sleeping Sequoia andgained;,the open-cour4try,,the.Colonel'sheart thrilled plens.urably. He heldcards and spades, big and little casinofour aces and' the Joker; therefore'.heknew he could sweep the board at hlapleasure.. And during his absence Shirley would have opportunity to cool offwhile he would find time to formulatean argument to lull her suspicionsnpon his return.

.CHAPtERJCVL. _

Quite oblivions of her uncle's depar-ture for San Francisco, Shirley layawake throughout the remainder olthe-nlghtf-turnlng-over and over-ln-hermind the various aspects of the Cardt-gan-Pennlngton Imbroglio. Of onething she was' .quite certain; peacemast be declared at all hazards. Sherealized that she had permitted mat-ters to go too far. A revulsion of feelIng toward her_nncle,_Induced_by thememory of Bryce Cardigan's blood onher white finger tips, convinced thegirl that, nt all hazards to her finan-cial future, henceforth she and heruncle must tread separate paths. Shehad found him out at last, and becauseIn her nature' there was some of hisown fixity of purpose, the resolutioncost her no.particular pang.

She had been obsessed of a desire,rather unusual In her sex, to see afight worth while; she had planned topermit It to go to a knockout, to "useBryce Cardigan's language, becauseshe believed Bryce Cardigan would bevanquished—and she had desired tosea Uhn smashed—but not beyond re-pair, for her joy In the conflict wasto He In the task of putting the piecestogether afterward f

It was rather a. relief, therefore,when the Imperturbable James handedher at breakfast tbe following Bate:

'Shirley Dear:"After leaving yon last night, I de-

cided that In your present frame ofmind my absence for a few days mighttend'to a calmer, and clearer .percep-tion, on/your part, of the necessarytactics which In a moment of despera-tion, I saw fit, with regret,' to pursuelast night.

Shirley's lip curled. With n rarer,keener Intuition than she had hitherton|nnlfested, she sensed the hypocrisybetween the lines; uho was not de-ceived.

The Lost Fur

By H. LOUIS RAYBOLD

t(& 1920. by MoClure Nftwipaper Syndicate.)

The snow wns piled in great banksalong Fifth avenue and the stagescareened through the street like a' shipIn an angry sea,

Bess Wilson had been standing wait-Ing tor o. seat on one of those busesuntil she felt she conld stand not an-other moment.

Getting to and from business underthe horrible conditions of the citystreets was a most trying ordeal eachmorning and evening, and Bess, togeth-erwith two orrvet'business friends,was getting weary of the, struggle.

. "It Is Only under such conditions asthese that I ever regret being poor andhaving to work for a living," laughedBess disconsolately as- they vainlyhailed the tenth bus that passed themon Its uptown way.

_ "It wouldn't, hurt some of thesewealthy people to give us uplift either,"

-commented-Nestn.—"They-cOuWStfeafc.lly fill up their great cars and bellitraffic a little."

The words had scarcely fluttered-from-her-Hp8Twhen:afblg-niotorrdplven-

by a well-poised young man, stoppedbefore the three .tired girls.

"Plenty of room In my back seat Ifany of you want a lift," he Invited,with % sharp military touching of biscap. •

"Oh-t" sighed Nestd, perhaps themost tired of the three.

"I was just saying some one wouldbe good enough to take us uptown."

Young Vincent Drake laughed andJumped out to let the' girls-In his greatcar. ' . . ! . . , '

Bess Wilson hesitated."I go to the West side," she sighed.

"You two go ahead. I will Just have towait for a No.' 15 bus."

Drake Inveigled her Into the. carwhile she was yet speaking. >

During the remainder .of the driveto" Bess' apartinent door. Drake was,conscious that the girl's queer littlepersonality;--was1—making — its - waythrough the ellenco she maintained. .

"Tbantc you so much," she said soft-ly as -Bhe stepped from the car. "I wasvery tired tonight and appreciate yourkindness. Good-night"

She was 'gone so swiftly that Drakehardly realized her exit from his hori-zon. , It was not until he had. plowedhis precarious way a few blocks be-yond that he cursed himself for nothaving thought to get her address. Hehad a feeling that he could get to likeBess, but now he had lost his chance.She was a needle In a great haystackto him.

When Bess had climbed, the threeflights of stairs to the small apart-ment and removed her coat and hat,there was a quaint little, smile hovering,about her lips'. She had not taken offher fur, because It was not on her neckto take. off. It was In'the back seat ofyoung Drake's car. So the little smllastayed In Bess' eyes with persistenthappiness while she prepared a noar>\ishlng dinner.

Next morning she made a stop onher way to business. It was at the-J'L-osrand"Foond"-desk-of-thorleadingdally paper.

Tbe advertisement read: "Willycung man who drove three glrlg hoa'cfrom corneR. Fifth avenue and Fifty'fourth street please return fur neck-piece left In car?"

As she turned away from the deskund started to make her way swiftlyout lest she be late, she collided with ayoung man apparently bent on thesame business'as~ herself. ~~

"Olj!" gasped Bess, breathless fromthe Impact Then, looking up, a beau-tiful flush swept her cheeks.

"So I" cried young Drak», with quiteshameless elation, "then it was yourfur?" He had jumped to speedy con-clusions seeing Bess.near the "Lostand Found" desk. "I am not sure Iwould have recognized either .if theother two girls—had I bumped Intothem here," he added.

The Implied compliment was reward-ed by a lovely slow glance from thegirl's eyes. \

"You were going lo advertise for theowner?" she questioned.

'Yes," young Drake told her, "andI don't mind letting you know I hopedyou were that vowner. I have never.had to return lost.property befoie, eodon,'t know how to do It." He lookedexpectantly nt Bess for bis solution.

"I would .call It found property now,"she enld slowly, and decided then andthere that she would like knowingyoung Drake much better than she al-ready did. "Perhaps if you have timeand still must stay but In. tbe air youcould stop by Fifty-third street aomeevening and deliver the fur. I am atthat corner every evening about 5:1B."

GOOD DISHES FOR THE FAMILY.

If there Is one.article of our dietwhich more than another needs care-

ful- cooking , it Isvegetables. Thevegetables p r «-Ear_ed_by_the-orr_diunry cook are abyword for allthat Is tastelessand unappetizing.The mineral salts

which we need to keep up the bodyfunctions are largely thrown down thekitchen sink when draining the veg-etables, Boiling any vegetable In wa-ter fs not the .best method, for Itanutriment Is largely wasted In tho wa-ter In whlcb It Is cooked. Steaming,cooking In casserole or paper bagdoes away with this waste.

Irish Stew.1— Out up two or threepounds of mutton Into serving-sizedpieces, leaving very little fat Seasonwell with salt and pepper and add sixgood-sized onlona peeled and finelychopped, two pounds of potatoespeeled and sliced thin.

Actresses in Paris Provide In-. teresting Fashions That

Attract Attention.

[AILOR-MflDE SUIT POPULAROutfit, Although tho Moft Expensive,

la Quite In the Limelight-Blouse Come* Into Its

Own Again.

The wide skirt Is dying hard inParis, owing to the popularity of thebouse of Jeanne Lnnvlij, who dressesmany chic Parlslemies. The fact thatIt was Lanvln who! launched the hipextended full skirt and that she haspersisted In exploiting It Is doubtlessthe reason why certain women con-tinue to accept that style, writes aprominent Paris fashion correspond-tThis fashion Is noted especially

among-the-actresses In Paris, some ofthe most Important of whom ar^edressed by Lanvln. This Is partly dueto their adelfility—to tliB-dcessm^er, -as -Sklrts-ha'It Is quite the custom In Paris for awoman to be dressed by one bouse ex-clusively. This gives her a markedIndividuality and she Is looked uponas an exponent of the fashion crea-tions of that particular bouse. To beBeen In costumes from another dress-maker would be almost like a betrayalof confidence.

One of the most popular Frenchactresses playing light comet!.- rolesJi Jane Benouard. This actress hasseen wearing' Lanvltfs clothes for sev-

deslgn, wide skirted, and with a bodIce fitting her slender figure quitesnugly. The feature of this frock I:a big feather design In white, devel-oped In white ribbon and silk flossembroidery, which stands out like anapplique and adds materially to theaffect of the dress. There are nosleeves. The decolletnge) Is quite low.Again she wore a Marie Louise hat,this time of black satin trimmed witha skeleton plume-of Nattier blue os-trich.

In direct contrast with dresses olthis type are the models made byhouses such as Redfern and 'Worth,who keep to dignity of line and con-ventional designs.

Mme. Dnlmoff, playing at the Renais-sance theater, wore a gorgeous dressof semi-conventional type made byRedfern. It was developed In silverbrocade and mauve tulle, the latterforming a voluminous sash draperyat one side of the back. She carriedwith this pale' inauve and silver dressa brilliant jade green ostrich fan.- I n -summer suits the -plaited -skirtcontinues popular. Many models orebeing developed In taffeta and satin,

jvlng-plaited-ponels am ufleiraccompanied by jackets with plaitedpanels and neck frills.

The fashion of catching the plaitedskirt In at the bottom by means of arestraining band Is one of the fea-tures In summer tailor-mades. Beerhas an Interesting new model of thissort, with a loose box coat and astraight plaited skirt developed Inwhite serge with black trimmings.This house also shows a sma-t sportsuit of khaki-colored serge, trimmedwith stitched plaits, which pass

THE flEVERSE SIDE

Stephen sat with brooding eyes look-ing over his meadows. To Stepacpytlie spreading farmland which he In-herited was the moat beautiful thingn the world. In It he foond his life-

work and his joy. To watch the «row-ng and ptentltnde of the labor <n? nlvlands and brain, was to film, a greatwonder and satisfaction. • And It. wasils misfortune that love, coming laterthan. Jt...came. to...men. .who: sought. oiit. _their entertainment, should come In;he delightful but unsuitable person olHlldegard Vane. Hltdegard waa oornand raised to an environment verydifferent from Stephen's meadows.Ellldegard bad known luxury and notb*ng bnt-lnxary and Its'beneflts. TBat--—le should have found her at 'all wasInconceivable. A relative Vane ha0purchased as a toy a certain farm toStephen's vicinity, and under tblaTune's Midas touch the farm turnedOpt as profitably as bis various otherInvestments. So to~the blgr remodeled.country house on the hill, he fovltedoccaslonally_clty_frlend»_for—week.—end visits, and his favorite nieceHlldegard wns one 'of the moat fre4)nent—visitors:—At length, after awinter season of gayety, It was tbooghlbest by the family physician thatMiss Hlldegard go to her uncle's ruralestate for a prolonged and restfulstay; and so, riding upon ber ponyone day,. Hlldegard had found Ste-phen's farmland, and cantering downthe tree-lined avenue, asked the favorof a drink of cool water. Jast at first,the girl bad taken Stephen for one otthe usual helpers. When he respondedto her request in his deferential cour-teous way, she became Interested inhis personality, and questioned theelder Vane, upon ber return, concern-big, "the big good looking, farmer."

Ber uncle laughed as ue made reply.."Look out for your heart, Hilda. Aman like Stephen Strong might domore damage to a girl's heart, rongbclad, than any drawing-room Idol."

Hilda smiled .retrospectively, "Helooks like his name," she said, "strong.Tell me about him."

"RegtsteTliTg~1in«resnirenay.'*-Iieuncle remarked. "Well, all I can tenIs from reports. He's a college man—agriculture; capable, successful, hon-est. Wedded to country life." r,

"He would be," she ranged, "or newould not devote, himself to It."

The proper Introduction bad comfcabout quite naturally. As Hilda waadriving one evening with the elderVane, Stephen approaching, stopped togive greeting. After that the girl methim frequently, and later acceptedvarious gravely offered Invitations toInspect the Strong farm, or 'to drlv«:through'toe hills at Stephen's 8*16.'-?*Stephen had not realized runt In thisproximity, a hopeless love might cometo Dim; friendship, pure and helpful,he had thought of as a possible and>nlcnsant result But love came. Andsuch a love as only a true and simpleheart like Stephen's could know.

.%aws of Nature Do Not Change WithOur Temperamental Changes."

By LYNN HAROLD HOUGH, Retiring Pres't Northwestern University.

A clever American once described a paradox as atruth which someone has stood on its head in order toattract attention. Gilbert Chesterton has .spent mosiof his life standing truths and some falsehopds on theirheads and the process has attracted a good deal olattention. On the whole his influence has made forstability and steadiness, for all of his literary audacityia the erpression of a very cautious-and conservativemind. Once he was discussing a law and its relationto life. What he said can be put into one sentence.

"You cannot break the law of gravitation, you can only illustrate it." Thnman who jump£ from a high cliff, for instance, docs not free himself from

" this law. He suf rendersi to its inflexible aqtion.We may not live' in a new world since the war. But we do surely live

in a world with a new psychology. Artificial restraints are hated and castoff. The very.breath of freedom is in the air. It is a golden day forexperiments. It is the period of the apotheosis of the untried.

— All this means that life has freshness and vigorous incentive. The-new-mood-may-be-'productive of immense-good:—Airthe-same-time-wejTecd to remember that the Iaw8"bf nature do not cha.ngejwith_our_ tem^peraftiental changes. And we need-to remember fhat the whole vast sys-tem of uniform action in which we find ourselves moves its sure and silentway quite apart from the white caps which show their teeth on the sur-face of our lives.

There is a real freedom in this world of law. But it is achieved b'ymastering the meaning of the laws of life and bending them to our pur-pose by our very conforming to their behests.

The man who Ignores thei laws of nature "anoTof life is merely court-ing disaster, however plausible the phrases in which he describes thedauntless freedom of the life.

Freedom and law together make the sum of life. The wise roanunderstands them both and fits them into the structure of his activity.A law becomes your slave when you conform to it

The aviator has a wonderful freedom in the air. But all thia free-dom IB based upon the observance of law. We may take long flights inthis new and wonderful day. But our machines must be built in theclosest conformity to the laws of nature and the pilot must be a manwhose very audacious freedom is based on obedience. „

Fundamental Difference Between TwoSchools Concerning Human Body.

By MRS. H. A. L. FISHER, Wile of British Minister of Education.

m-,-Councilor Donald Clark of Tonbridge objected to mixed bathing on

' esthetic grounds.' He did not think that the damsels of Tonbridge lookedtheir best in bathing attire, and he feared lest the oversensitive youths ofthe city, beholding the maidena J^ap and disheveled, would, in''^OnBe^.

vV'quence, abjure matrimony, ./ ' • ' • ','• . / , . . . ' !No doubt there are many, pcoplewho only admire tho human form

-when it ia furthest removed from nature. But, after all, they do not__^rgpreggntjlhe best or the moat prominent view. It is not really on cathgtic^

grounds that opposition to mixed bathing is based. This plea, it is tobo feared, is mainly camouflage. The fundamental difference of opinionIB between those who believe, no doubt sincerely, that the human bodyia something which should bo concealed and mentioned with adequate re-serve, and those- who regard it as beautiful and glorious in itaclf.

Closely, indeed, inseparably, allied to tho first of these is tho viewthat makes sex a shameful thing, to bo referred to only in whispers, to bekept from the knowledge of the young, a secret and a mystery compoundedof allurement, danger, and scurrility. It is because this view of ita modifi-cations has BO long prevailed'thnt wo still have to contend with our annual40,000 illegitimate children, our young people with lives ruined throughignorance, our children marred before birth by tho uina or folliea of their

' parents.We want them to have beautiful and healthy bodies and to toko a

wholesome pride in their health and beauty. To that end wo want agreat extension of facilities for physical training, for (jamcs.Hfolk dancing,Hinging, open-air life, sportfl, nnd certainly for swimming—ono of thoiiKWt health-giving of all oxcrciuw).

"There was a doctor In the toutingrr^we got him, too ; he's a sure-

enough crook," continued Ford. "Thedoctor watched Shute every second ofthe ride to New York, keeping hishypodermic handy. But the lad didn'trouse before they got him to theColonla's_ pigr,__,Thejn L they Ljvoke. _bjlm_up n little by slapping his face, sothey could carry him aboard as If hewas drunk — lots ot'young bloods arecarried aboard steamers that way, Iunderstand. Thuy spilled liquor .onils clothes nnd facu, then called theship's doctor — yon know the ability ofthe average ship's doctor! Told him

and said: 'He's all seas over, allright.'"

"But weren't they afraid he mightlome to before the ship sailed?"

"They took care of that. After theShip's doctor had gone, the doctorcrook gave him a hypodermic—enoughmorphine to keep him asleep till noonthejnext dayj when the ship would heaway *out to sea. A liberal tip to theroom steward, who a^ldhT suspect any-thing wrong, and the greatest secondbaseman In baseball was shang-haied!" ,

'All for the purpose, of making a^killlngT' asked the ambassador.

The biggest killing the gamblershave made' in years," said Ford.•Jake Stinger and his crowd are sup-

posed to have cleaned up several hun-dred thousand dollars."

lBut you've got him now—JakeStinger!" '

"That's the trouble—we haven't,"admitted Ford. "Not one. of thecrooks caught so far will admitStinger had anything to do with it.They're being paid big money, nodoubt, to protect him."

"Then liow do you know that he'smixed up In It?"

'We know that' the fellow callinghimself Walter Noble has done dirtywork for Stinger before. He wouldprobably go to the penitentiary forStinger—for money."

'Then you're up against ItT"'Yes—unless we're right In the way

we size np tho case. You see," con-tinned ForJ, "the crooks'had .to domore than put Shute aboard that shipand keep him unconscious until shewas out at sea.

"Oh, I cabled thai from GibraltarTm all right—so what's the use botherlng over It now?"- "Well, rm—" Tria Ford didn't tolab. His expression was enough.

"See here, Tris," argoed Wln,"whatMansel did to me—suppressing mymessages and faking; a wireless fromyou to the captain—Fwas rotten bad, Iknow. But let me tell you something:at the sanje time he was protectingMiss Leonard 1"

"How?""The captain -of the Colonla- was

getting messages asking him if a par-son answering her description wasaboard the boat—she traveled underthe name of niley, "-remember I toldyou.

"What's more—he didn't take ad-vantage of his Inside Information; bedidn't try to-r-to work on her sympa-thies because be was shielding her.There's some good In that chap yet" .

Tris Ford gave assurances of fairdealing In regard to the wireless op-erutor—for, Miss Leonard's sake! Ab-ruptly he asked about the young lady:where she was. Ho was told that Imo-gen Leonard was detained In the besthotel, at Genoa, which was surroundedby guards, and that Win Shutewouldn't have left her there aloneshe hadn't Insisted -that he take hermother—to-Bomo-to-8oo- tho- Americanambassador. This mission hnd madeIt possible1 for Win to obey tho cable-gram directing him not to leave theship until arrival at Naples.

The ambassador of tho UnitedStates of America accredited to Italywelcomed Trls Ford with a broad, see-wliat-n-hlg-boy-am-I grin. Ford couldgue-HH—'twas tho symbol of accom-plishment.

CAN BEANS FORUSEjNWINTEB

Valuable as Basis for Innumera-ble Salads and Various

Vegetable Side Dishes.

CANNING DIRECTIONS GIVENCare .Und In Following Instructions

Will Be More Than Compensatedby Product Which Will Keep

Well In Cold Weather. ; ,

Plenty of string beans In jars In thestore closet means that the basis forInnumerable salads and vegetable sidedishes Is at the housekeeper's com-mand all during the winter months,so when this vegetable Is at Its best Inthe garden or on the market the wisewoman cans enough for use when It Isout of season. The following direc-tions for canning string beans aregiven by. the United States depart-ment-of • agriculture:

greanbeans for canning purposes. Beanswhich have grown within the pod toany size tre difficult.to can, and theresulting product is not ns satisfac-tory as one from younger beans. Thesooner the beans are In the jar afterpicking the better the flavor and themore certain they are to keep. Wash,string nod cut off the ends of theieans. Whole beans may be cannedor they nuvy be cut In short lengths.Those cut diagonally are attractive inappearance.

Fill Jars With Hot Brine.Place the beans in a wire sieve or

p cheesecloth and blanch (scald) Inlot water or live steam for from three:o five minutes, or until the pod willbend without breaking. On removal,drain well f.nd pack Into hot Jarswhich have been boiled for 15 minutes.'Jn the Jars place rubbers which havebeen boiled In a solution of one table-spoonful of soda to one quart of water.

Cover beans with a hot brine madefrom four level tnblespoonfuls of salt:o four quarts of boiling water. Putm top which has been boiled 15 min-utes. With glass-top jars put one wire

In position. Make screw tops al-most half tight Processing beans un-der steam pressure Is recommended.Quart jars should be processed 45minutes under pressure of 10 pounds.

By adding lemon or orange, or both,a jelly can be made -from green to-matoes which Is of an attractive colorand of pleasant, though unusual flavor.The pectin substances and acids oflemon end orange, which 'confer Jelly-making properties upon the tomatojuice, are found In both juice _andwhite peel, but especially In the latter.The bitter; taste -of the uncooked white -"peel' will not Interfere with1 the flavorofthe uncooked product, according tohome economic experts of the '.UnitedStates department of agriculture.

8 pounds green tomatoea.2 pints water.1% lemons tf ounceaX2 oranges (1£ ounces).-2 cups sugar {about 14 ounces).3 cups elrup (nearly 2 pounds). /(Srtomatoes"infb

In 1 pint of water for half an "hour.'At the same time cook the orange rind,cut up small or put through a meatchopper, itf.a pint of water, slightlysalted so as to keep the peel- tender,In case It Is to, be used later In mak-ing a relish. Combine these two mix-tures, and drain through a jelly bagin the usual way. Squeeze the baggently, In order not to waste the julcfl

lch remttlnfTbehlnd. Y6u~wlll~flnttthat In this case squeezing does notgreatly affect even the appearance ofthe Jelly. There should be a quart ofjuice, more or less, according to therate at which the water may haveboiled down. Boll the juice for tenminutes to reduce It In bulk and con-centrate Its solids. 'At the end of thoboiling period, measure the Juice; foreach cupful of juice, add one-half cup-ful of sugar and one-half cupful sirup.Boll until a good jelly test Is secured —that Is, until it begins to Jelly as thelast drippings ' come from the spoonor when a drop stands on a cold plate.The nrnUunt of Jelly secured will boat least three glasses or somewhatmore than one pint. It may underfavorable circumstances be almosttwice this. '

If this juice when poured into glass-es show signs of Jellying, but docs notset at once, set It away, lightly cov-ered with cloth, for several days; youmay secure a fine, firm Jelly at" theend of n week. It should then he cov-ered with hot parnfljn as usual. -

In our own experience, tho Jelliesmade with a large proportion of cornsirup will be satisfactory If servedwithin an honr or two after turningout of the glass, but do not "hold up"perfectly if left to atand for a day orwo, even though quite firm In the be-

Rosalind dreamed that night ofTitislness acumen nnd the next morn-Ing she made h decision. Bravery wasn secondary consideration. Next tomoral rectitude business acumen was•what counted. ,

No sane woman should consent tobecome the wife of a man who couldnot .prove the possession of such acu-men, nnd Rosalind considered herselfsane. Her fattier was an Ideal exampie of ' the perfect husband, and he•owned tlio bank In which Vellx andJosephus worked. , •

"I'm 'sorry. Felix," she told her fatsuitor, ''hut I can't marry youjifterflll—until you prove you have husl-.ness acumen. That lots Josephus Infor 'another chance." ;

Felix groaned. Against .Tosephus hefeared he would stand little show In.« contest of wits, for Josephus wastftcky nnd Felix whs guileless.

Miami, Fin. — Probably~for the firsttime since the stirring days of theClvtf war we find a southern portblockaded by United States warships.Happily, however, It is no crisis'brought about by an uncompromisingdemand, for the. Integrity of staterights, but tojpreveqt a cable ship en-•teMhg'm"e~p6rfearSflin5C~ffie~mostsoutherly city on the Florldlnn main-land and the third largest In the state,from the standpoint of population.

Nes'tllng beside the beautiful watersof Blscayhe bay and separated from(he Atlantic only by tte peninsula of

-Miami-beach, the city has rapidlycome Into Its-own, due to the strategicgeographic location It occupies on theSouth Atlantic coast; and lt! givespromise to rival Jacksonville ns aport of call. When one realizes thatone-third of alt. the grapefruit In theUnited States comes from the countyIn which Miami Is situated and tfcatine-flfth of ill the animal life InAmerica north of Panama Is to befound In the waters of 'thffGulf streamwhich lave the golden strand of Miamibeach In Its front yard, and with thegreat potential agricultural' wealth ofthe Everglades nt Its back door, smallwonder tiat Miami has grown, asshown by the last census report, 440percent. . -,

Rival* the Riviera..Blessed with a year-round climate

that rivals the Riviera, with ever-blowing trade winds that temper theeeml-troplcal sun; Miami bids fair totake rank with anything of its size -Inthe United ; States for developmentalong highly profitable and thoroughlybusinesslike lines. , f" .

It Is not surprising that a, telegraphcompany desires to bring tbe Barbadoscables. Into Miami Instead of KeyWest, a hundred odd miles south ofthis point; but there Is some diplo-matic bitch about England's control ofcables which has caused thin pratlcnl-ly unheard of situation of UnitedStates war vessels blockading a Unit-ed states port In the time of peace.

Three years ago tho money on de-posit in tho banking Institutions ofMiami amounted to something like ,J$,-_S007000, In the summer of ii)10 to$12,000,000. In Marcb, 1920, to $17,-000,000, and today the amount Is up-ward of $20.000,000. Moreover, inpermanent population It has grown Inten years from' 6,471 to '20,649. Duringtho winter months there are nearly anmany trafllc "cops" on Its well-pavedstreets as there are In the nationalcapital, ten times Its size.

expected to call on you this eveningfor a last stroll on the beach as a -fit-ting end of onr 'little affair," butCousin Sally has begged me to takeher to the last hop at the Inn.

"With rejrets,"ROBERT WHITNEY."

Malda, sitting on the floor before ahalf-filled -trunk, cruinp(ecl"tHe""iiaperIn her hand and gazed with unseeing.eyes at the chaos around her. Whatdid tt mean? Be knew she bad beenexpecting him. Hadn't he practicallytaken It for granted that he shouldsee her almost every night for the lastthree weeks? And he had signed hisname so formally—Robert Whitney,Instead of the familiar "Bob."

Malda's blue eyes overflowed andshe burled her face In her arms onthe" nearest support.' which' happenedto b'e a pile of freshly Ironed clothes.

Partially filled packing boxes, harebookshelves and forlorn-looking couchdenuded of Its cover nnd pillows borewitness that this was Malda's lastnight at the beach. Tomorrow morn-ing she hnd her mother would lock upthe door of the little cottage, handthe key to the owner and take thetrolley back ,(o the city for the win-t e r ; '

It was true that except for nn alltoo brief two weeks In August, shehad had to go back and forth to theeity every day.

But Mulda had'come to the beachprepared, to play a dangerous game,old as the hills and fraught with mis-chief to the players.

The fact thnt Malda's busy fingerswere tapping busily at the keys of hertypewriter had never prevented herlittle shell-like ears, half submergedthough they were In \vaves of sunnyhair, from absorbing the gossip whichcirculated among the girls of the of-fice. She knew that such n one hadheeli "engaged for the summer," thatso-and-so had had an "affair"—Inshort, that a flirtation In which bothknew thot nothing serious was Intend-ed was a legitimate part of every sum-mer 'outing.

And Maldn, who hnd nineteen unso-phisticated affalrless summers alreadyto her credit, decided-that for onceshe would do as the other girls. Forti-fying her resolution, she even madepublic her Intentions to the-others,who Jollied her and begged, her tocompare notes with them. .

1 !y Dangerous Aid to Evaders*-, of Justice.

Scotland Tard, which every British-er considers the world's highest organ-ization for the capture of criminalsnnd the detection of crime, and towhich every flrltish writer of detec-tive stories has given unstinted prnls*for cleverness, has just been outwit-ted, according to London's own confes-sion, by a shrewd criminal who hasbruins enough to think of some otherway than a land ot- water route of get-ting out of England.

The machinery of the great Englishdetective organization was put Into op-eration along alt the old acceptedlilies; a close watch was kept on alltrains and the passengers of every, out-going boat were carefully scrutinized.The muu for whom this net wasspread did not attempt any of the dis-guises or1 subterfuges la which thewriters of tbe^nlodera Old Cap Collierstories greatly deltgtt. He telephonedto the London airport at Croydon, asfcIng for n reservation oi) the plane leaV-Inff for Paris. When Informed' that thaafternoon craft'had already left. h»went to the aviation ground and se>eur*-'d~u special plftneT"' if~re?iuTre'b7~ttliberal distribution of money, but Itpaid him. Ho hopped over the tppof the big police net nnu dropped safe-ly on French soil.

The report of the feat says this aeri-al encnpe of a criminal "was the firstIn tt« annnlH~~bf British crime." Buttho whole history of crime |s full ofInstances where the clever criminalhas surprised the police by the employ-ment of a new Invention or contriv-ance which WUH never Intended for hla.use. This exploit Hhoulil prove notalone to Scotland Yard but to- the pa-lice departments clnewhere the necrs-Ity of precautions .Jlmt will make Itarecurrence Impossible.

For hours Bnlrd had hidden In theehnilow of n clump of holly In thebig auhnrhnn .vnrd waiting for .thenear morning time, when people sleepmoat soundly. The young fellow's gar-ments were whole and decently clean,but his rtnrk red sweater hung loose-ly on his t'aunt hody_u-hls"fpce. thin

"Bnd-bltip-wnitev was desperate, bitter,hopeless.

Balrd had come West with thosewho listened to the nllnrtftg tales ofcity hoosters nnd the real estate In-terests, to make his "fortune" In the"Land of Opportunity"—and his for-tune, at this moment, consisted of asingle nattered copper I

For weeks he had tramped thestreets with hundreds of others look-Ing for^work—when there—were—ten_hungry men for every job. But heIrad noF given~up~untll~the—day-be—fore. Then, .sitting In the free read-ing room ,of-,,the "Men's Resort," atfive o'clock In the morning, he hodbeen roughly seized, with fifty othersof the hungry unemployed, and alterfiearch at the police* station had re-vealed the amount of the silver' anaSold of tie fifty to be less than 75

. «e'nts, the "empty" ones were ordered-to-leave- the-city-under-penflHy_o? a_

lengthy rock-pile sentence. -Stung to the depths of hla sensitive

f»ul by the Injustice—crazy with thebanger pain In his stomach, Balrdresolved, and- as a result of his reso-lution he was waiting outside thissilent house.

At two o'clock he fell Into a -lightdoze. Presently his own dreamingcry: "Walt, Mamie! Walt for me!"awakened him. He laughed under hisbreath at the absuraityoTTltewords.Be bad said words like them backthere In South Cardflnn, six yearsago, when his heart was .breaking,»nd he had told Mamie Tlinro good-

ing! My maids ana cb«uaeur *te •<a dance and my telephone won'twork I"

Youthful remembrances of his moth-er and her remedies flashed overBalrd. He called for- articles fromthe medicine shclves^ahd forced a mix-"ture down the boy's . throat, thenworked over the child (a little four-year-old, with a crooked back) untilthe rasping hreaths ceased and huilept, breathing easily and naturally.

When the child was out of dangerthe woman brought her purse andsomewhat tremulously banded Balrdi gold coin.

Flushing, he laid It In one of theIttle sleeper's bonds.

"No," he said; "I've no work—I'mstarving—I haven't eaten In two days.I come In the house to rob you, but Idon't..wanLpny.-for saving your boy'slife! M you'll show me the door, I'llgo i"

For the first time she saw him clearly. She caught her breath nna the airquivered with her wondering cry:

"Oh, Jimmy I Jimmy I Jimmy I"Balrd looked at her In astonishment.

There were splotches of white on herblack hnlr; there were lines of weari-ness In her young face.

'Mamie I" he cried, "I—where laBob?"

'Bob Is dead," she answered him

THE ELECTRIC STOVE

THE electric Rtove Is a ,Buccefl9fuldevice which prevents the house-

wife from being overcome by the heatand baked to the dull, reddish brown,aspect of the Arapnhoe squnw. Awoman can stand in front of an elec-tric stove nil day and run It wltb onehand, while beating up n sponge cakewith the other/nnd still remain as

before the baby was born. They areall dead—father, mother and Bob'sfather and mother."

"I—I am sorry—" he groped forwords, "I didn't know where youwere living. Poor Bob!"

'After Bob got tired of me, and thatwas very soon," she--told—hlm^In_a.strange, hard voice, "he used to strikeme. He-knocked-me~down-the daybefore he was killed. That's the rea-son my baby Is a hunchback."

The red leaped In Balrd's whitecheeks. "The brute! The damnedbrute!" broke from him. Then hishead dropped In his hands. "And I,"he murmured, ashamed and contrite,"1 who would have died to save youtrouble—I tried to steal from you!r—HI go now, Mamie, nnd after thisI pray God you'll get better treatmentfrom those that profess to love you 1"

He took nn unsteady step towardthe door, then reeled nnd fell. Whenhe opened his eyes again, the youngwoman brought a cup of hot milk,and held It to his lips, then fed himspoonfuls of egg, as one feeds a baby.

After a little he raised himself1 andstood erect. "Let me go now, Mnmle,"he said. "I nm all right now, and to-morrow I'll try again for work."

But she stood In his path, flushingand trembling.

"Don't go. Jimmy t I'm afraid togo on staying by .myself—stay withme I"

Balrd whitened and turned his faceaway from her.

"Maybe you don't like me like youused to, Jimmy!" Her words werelow and wistful.

"You know I love you, Mamie, andalways shall," ho murmured, "but I'mno good—worse than a failure. You

-QUgut_tO—hayo_mo sent to the policestation."

"Hush," she whispered, kissing him.'In the morning—today, Jimmy—I'llgo with you to tho parsonage I"

Dick Morrison was visiting a friendhe had met the summer 'previous atInglewood. Inglewood was a favoritesummer resort of Dick's family. NedGreenwood had rescued Dick fromdrowning at Inglewood beaeh onemorning when Dick was seized withcrninp. Friendship had doveloped_frora this Incident and now Dick wasat the Greenwood (arm having thetime of his life.

"And-^vin yon ever forget thntgypsy /ortupe^IIBr "nt Kgrewoo<J aiifl "the things she predicted!" laughedNed. ,

"Come to think of II, now, she didpredict that Thursday would he mylucky day. By. the way, Thursday Isthe day I return to town — I'm going <p ,b,e on tlie look-out for luck," -and atthe mere thought of ever being super- .stltloua over lucky days or fortune-tellers, Dick smiled. It was Incredu-lous to both Dick nnd Ned that anyof the gypsy's predictions would eve*'pHnejrue. _ ". "" ;; — _

The 8 :14 was late, as unnni, Thurs-dny morning, nnd Edna Walton pacedup and down the platform at Newfaftstation mentally criticising the rail-road and all connected with It. Onher manicuring parlor windows InWhltton City was written, "Open at8:30," and now It was close on to10:30 — She. had spent. the-week-endL.with 'a girl friend at Nenrfalt and wagin a~hurry'to get hack fir the city andher business. Edna Walton conduct-ed a manicuring parlor called Mme.Walton's manicuring parlor. She wastwenty-one, rather small, had largelaughing brown eyes and a wealth ofcurly brown hair.

Dick, Morrison - Jumped from Ned'sracer at the station and graspingNed's hand, assured him of the de-lightful weeks spent at Newfall at theGreenwood farm. He hurried to theplatform, deposited his grip on thogound, and signaled to a passing news-hoy for a morning paper. The boydid not notice Dick, as he was busycounting his money at that moment.

In the meantime Ednn saw thetrain approaching at a distance andunconsciously deposited1 her grip closeto Dick's, nnd took n tiny 'mirror fromher pocketboob and made sure thecurls were all tucked In neatly. She,l«o, saw^the newshoy and went afterhim for 'a morning paper. Dick re-turned, and with his eyes on the ap-proaching train, picked up a grip andmoved forward. Edna, with the pa-per under her arm, also picked ap nbrown leather hag, and as she enteredthe train oho secretly thought howlight the bag had grown since shelast carried It. When she was seat-ed In her chair she looked at the bjig.and alas 1 In place of her travel-wornbrig won n beautiful leather one with

|_Uie_JnttIals_D._M._Dr!ntert on the sldo, _"What have I done and where Is my

grip?" was all she could say. andtears of vexation appeared In hereyes.

In tho meantime tn the smokernick was surely blessing tho gypsywho had produced all mmnhlne nndgood luck for him on Thursday, andlyre before his very eyes wan an urt-ramlllnr mix.

Cologne.—The British army' appears•- to have'lacqulred a strong grip on this

There has .been very littlefriction between the Temmles and theInhabitants. All disputes between thexrrny of occupation and the.'peopld of

"At the present time Germany coalput a well-equipped army of OOO.OOCofficers and men Into the Held If the;could be organized to fight together.The major pn'rt of this force is thiarmy of .the Baltic and the smalleibodies of troops who have not yetbeen disbanded.'

"In receiving tay orders I was toldthat while the. boaM appreciated thofact that^expensesrXJt-all-sorts werehigh In Buenos Aires and Montevideo,still It felt that there must be some-thing wrong when their vessels paideach prices, for Instance, as W apound-far butter.

There are 23 lines under the ship-ping-board which have-vessels callingat ports In this Jurisdiction. Thereare on an average*22 vessels on bandat all tlines. The average cost formaintaining these Is from $1.500 to $2,.000 each per day. Before the war anAmerican vessel on the Blver Platewas a curiosity.

flees Jf Itn own to take charge of Itsvessels In ports throughout . theworld," continued Captain Carden, "liwas usually necessary to Intrust thecare of Its ships- to established agen-cies. Many of, these steamship agentshad nlrendj for years been representa-tives -of foreign .and possibly compet-ing lines. The result has been that himany cases American vessels havebeen held back, while other ships weregiven the preference, causing the ex.penses of American ships to mount upthrough port charges and lost time.

"In all Blver Plate ports losses fromthis source hove been very great, anwell as those through overcharges' forsupplies, repairs and so. forth. ThereIs one case on record where an Amer-ican chip was held up for months forrepairs and charges totaling $300,000were piled np against her.

The saving to the shipping boardfrom this attention undoubtedly willbo several hundred- thousand-dollarsannually."

'The Strange Girl" Is the name theygave the Jlttle cicature, gossipingaipong. theinselvea concerning tho af-fairs of folks who patronizet! tblflexclusive Woodslde Inn.

"It Is my opinion," she said, "thatthe girl Is working out her boardhere—'-a rural relative or something ofthe sort of Manager Hastings, else whyshould she be allowed to eat at tbetruest tables ID the £reat dining room?

"I will tell you somethlns." she said__"This morning as I went out early tothe garage with my husband—we weresolng-oway-lu-hls car—therc^baclt-4n_tne-barnyardrwas your^strange gJrHn"tier short gingham dress, feeding tbechickens."

"Really I* Mrs. Van Vourt exclaimed,•Chickens t" laughed Madame Rensaler.

"I must go and tell Homer," Bliss Vanv"onrt said gleefully, and was off. A.tall man, who hnd been silently smok-ing a cigar around the bend of the ve-randa,—arose—wrothfully^ How- theypicked her to pieces, the gentle, 807•creature who slipped In and outthrough all their display so unobtru-sively.

"Such an Interesting personality I"Mrs. Van Vonrt whispered as hepassed; "decidedly western, of course.but picturesque."

"It's his money, my dear, that Is plc-tnresqne," Madame Rensaler dryly re-marked. "They say this Jln< Brentbas made his millions.",

The .westerner reached the bam-rard as the strange girl, Man. wasbending over two white bens hungrilyengaged In disposing of their dinner.She had loosened the tight-pinnedbraids from tier head, and they'fell re-belllonsly waving,. red gold, to herwaist. Startled, ber soft eyes glancednp at him.

"Say," Jim Brent Bald awkwardly,"let me do that for yon while you go>In and get on that white dress for din-ner. The bellto.going to ring in.o ruin-ate."

The girl smiled."Why, that's nice of yon." she said,

"but I can't trust Blddle's feeding, orJerry's, to another person. You see?—she caressed tho white fowls—"theyare about all I have to love. 1 broughtthcnnvlth-me.11

"Brought thorn 1" gasped Jim; "frtmiyour home farm?"

Nan arose, straightening her ging-ham skirts. *

"1 haven't any home or folks," shesaid wistfully.

He waited Inter 'until the strnngogirl was properly BOatc'd at her ownplace In the great dining room. ThenJim Brent crossed tho floor nnd pausedwith a how of deference before her.

"I wonder," ho ashed, "If you'd letine Bit here with you. 1 am lonely andI rccUou you are. They"—ho muiloucd 'toward tho fashionable m&cmbledthrong—"they don't tit. some Way.Hunting.'! will tell you that 1 am oilright."

NOTICE.

The Water Commissioners,of the Town of Hammon-ton hereby give notice that the present charges for serviceof water to consumers will be increased by 3p per cent, onmetered and unmetered services beginning on October 1stnext; =

In making the foregoing announcement the Commissioners think it de-sirable to state that the increase is absolutely due to the exorbitant price o:coal, over which they have no control. This expense alone, if maintained at theexisting rate, would require the gross receipts of the Water Department todefray it. The Commissioners, however, hope that the increase may be onlytemporary, in view of certain mechanical changes by which they believe theycan largely offset the probable continued high price of coal. To this a savintwill be added in cutting out of waste of water by consumers, if they stop aiunnecessary flow of water and avoid its loss by leaky fixtures. This, in theinterest of the town, must be done. With the next quarterly bill u scbednlof the revised rates will be sent out. *

Tires are often sold thesame way politics are.

The last people to wdkeup to what they are gettingare the people who pay thebills.

The bills are getting toobig these days in both cases.And the man who. is feelingit most with respect to. tiresis the man who owns amoderate-prico car.

mThe idea that the small carowner . doesn't need a goodtire is rapidly going tho wayof all mistaken ideas.

He needs it more thananyone else. It's part of ourjob, as we view it, to seethat he gets it.

Our tire service starts withgood tires—U. S. Tires. Allsizes made to a single stand-ard of quality—none gradeddown to the price of the carthey will go on.

U. S. perfected the firststraight side automobile tire—• the first pneumatic trucktire.

The U. S. guarantee is forthe life of the tire, and notfor a limited mileage.

IV

When we recommend andsell U. S. Tires we do so inthe interest of greater 'tireeconomy. It is our e^peri-cnce that that is the bestway to build up a sound and

business.
