Lund lottery swindlers, driven outof New York by District AttorneySvvann, are now operating in Newark,according to Prosecutor J. HenryHarrison. These fake realty promo-ters lease the privilege of standing infront of a moving picture bouse, pay-ing as much as $50 per day for theprivilege, it is said, and hand eachpatron a numbered coupon that pur-ports to entitle the holder to a chanceon a building lot. Each recipient isrequested to fill In their namu andaddress and drop the ticket In a boxprovided for the purpose. A fewilays later each one who has signed «ticket receives a call from an agentand informed that they were thewinners of the lot and upon paymentof from $5 to SCO (according to theagent's size-up of their ability topay) they would receive the deed.Many have paid the Idltlona] money,and it is needless U> ,,ay that the lotsare of little or no value.

esl.I "*iK I \\ In r, the huts are tosHiu'*

too.Hark I Where the chccrln' Is the loudest,A'lio's Ihiil Mepplu' Into view?

Tht answer Is "The Marines"—the lines nretrain Joseph C. Lincoln's spirited tribute to the"l^alhernecks," which WHS written shortly afterthey oiiened the bull in the first week of June,I9IS, Iiy stopping Hi.- victorious Hermans in the('linliiui Thierry sector, forty-odd miles froml*ariK. "You know the rest, In tlie books youhave read"—bow the marines not only stoppedthe fcdceU'd (tertnun shock troops short, but wentrlirht lit 'fin and licked 'em to a frazzle. Themarines were the whole thing then for quite awhile. They were the first Americans to get Intoau'lfiiu on iloir own account nnd the ChateauThierry story was spread broadcast over the worldfor the «nke of Its heartening effect on our HIIII-M.Hill tills marine business is old stuff now.

Don't mlKtnke me. The marines have notchanycil. And there nre no belter lighting n u iIB the known world.For 100 per cent nil'round efficiency theybare no equal. The••Hilary experts of all•atlons will tell you so.for one thing, they'realways equipped, nl-trnys ready, alwayspacked up and asking,MWliere do we go fromhere?" They're the••West brunch of theUnited States militaryservice and I'ncle Samhas used them so longas a sort of Interna-tional M, i'. Unit they•rally know their husl-SJWW. Before the greatwar, you know, theywere tlie fighting menon our battleships, andwhen they were putsji*ore anywhere — Itmade no difference where—prelty soon Washing-ton got this stereotyped message: "The marinesfcnve landed and have the sltuution well In hand."Add tn this their unofficial motto, "What we have.we hold;" -and you have n pretty good line onthis picked outfit of fighting men.

Thl« marine stuff Is old stuff for an entirelydifferent reason—for two reasons. One is thntthere was u lot of fighting between June 1 andNovember 11, 11)18. The other Is that we arenow beginning to Bear all about it. The pointIs:- While the marines kept right on adding totheir laurel!! nnd tbe regulars ran 'em a deadheat, the common, everyday American soldier—all branches of the servtce^-nlso got Into actionand alngeil some thrillers himself. NationalCltmrd, National army, air service—It made notllfforence. As lighting men they proved theywere worthy to stand and to charge alongsideregulars and marines—and words ran say nomore. They have their own place In the sun andthey won it In the only way a lighting man canwin It. You know how.

The German high command nt the Spa in Rel-Cliim during the war studied the American sol-dier systematically and thoroughly, nnd formallywrote Its conclusions into tlie official records.Major von Kundsteudt, on Cenerul Ludendorff's•itnff, hns made public some of these official con-ciuHlons. One Is: "The Americans nre verybrave and active, but highly temperamental." Heexplained this by saying thut with tlie Americansthe fighting was a good deul of a sporting propo-sition, and that they wanted to get all the ad-venture nnd excitement possible out of it. Besides,Jt was impossible to tell what tlie Americanswould do. They might attack anywhere and anytime. They might get tired sltllug around oreet peeved at tlie mosquitoes or feel mad be-cause their rations had not come up—then theywere apt to take it out on tbe enemy. Major vonKundstcudt. asked to name offluind some of thoAinrricaii divisions considered by the high com-mand as among the best, replied:

"The division which you call 'the Rainbow Inthe Sky' (Korty-second), and that division madetip half of marines (Second regulars) ; also theTwenty-eighth (Pennsylvania National Guard),and the Klrst (regulars)."

When the high command records were examinedthese ijivixions were also found included amongIhe most effective; Thirty-second (Michigan andWisconsin Natimal Guard), Twenty-sixth (Nation-til ('.nurd, New lOngland), Thirty-third (NationalCunril, Illinois, I'l-airie), and Thirty-seventh (.Na-tional Guard, Ohio).

Official American Portraits.The Judgment of the Qerraan high command as

to division cllicioncy. It will be noted, is home outby the American records now beginning to tiemade public And Major von [iundstendt uncon-sciously painted a gorgeous picture of the Anier-ICHII soldier as a first-class fighting mnti.

unit that got a chance atthe Hun showed It was madeup of heroes.

How do these Incredibleyoung lighting American*look and act and have theirbeing? Why, you know.You see these heroes everyday—either actual or poten-tial. They are coming back-by tbe thousands, tens ofthousands, hundreds of thou-sands. They look very muchas they did when they wentoverseas —• the able-bodiedones. You can see changes,If you look close, but In themain they nre the samesmiling. Jolly, clean, decent,

good-natured American hoys. No wonder theFrench loved them for their looks and their ways,wondered If It was possible that they really couldfight anil went delirious with ecstasy when theyput the Hun on tbe run nnd kept him going!

Well, the generations to come, who cannot seethese American heroes In the flesh, will have thechance fo see a few of these heroes in ofliela! por-traits.

Joseph Cummings Chase, well-known portraitpainter, who went oversells In October on a spe-cial mission for (he War college, has returned.He brought with him 142 portraits, including aComplete set of likenesses of the American gen-erals overseas—save four, which he will be com-pelled to paint here. There nre 72 portraits ofgenerals, HO of privates, "noncoms" and lieuten-ants who performed especially noteworthy serv-ice; -0 are pictures of officers of various grades.Mr. Chase was selected by the War college topaint these portraits, which are to be incorporatedinto tbe official biBtory of America's participationIn the great war.

Doubtless the generals and other officers of highrank are all Imposing In looks, but their portraitshave been published before. It is quite likely pop-ular Interest in these official portraits will runlargely toward those of tlte fighting men. Some-body said: "No army is bigger than its 'buckprivates.' " He said something.

Tbe four portraits here reproduced out of 18 atband are the selection of the etcher and not of thewriter; so It is clear that reproduction quality andnot tlie record of tlie soldier determined tliechoice. Yet this choice, haphazard as to deeds,shows clearly the marvelous qualities of tbeAmerican soldier. Here is what the. four did, inbrief:

Lieut. Philip Benson, due Hundred and Eight/-fifth Aero Squadron.—During the last three weeksof the fighting Lieutenant Benson made tripssightly over German towns, (dropping hundreds ofbombs and fired thousands of rounds of ammuni-tion into Hun supply trains. Of the pursuit groupto which he belonged, only two pilots remainedalive. His father is a well-known New York arch-itect, and his uncle Is the famous painter, Franklienson. Work like this requires a different sortof courage from thnt of the charge in the heat ofbattle. Let your Imagination go along with thisaviator, atone in the heavens at night over theenemy country, arid make your own estimate ofthis city boy, well-bred, educated and refined andof native American stock. Keep In mind, too, thataviators have lo lie just aboul 11)0 per cent per-fect mentally and physically, and in a sense arevolunteers.

His citation saystills was only one incident nt Corporal Brockl'sactivities. This, man is of Polish birth or blood,according to Chase—evidently one of those "tem-per:tnn'!itiii" fellows.

Klf(Ji Division-—Corporal <!aultney wuspicked out by his commander as un example ofhis tinest type of soldier, (iaultney was wounded;that couldn't stop him. Alert, Ingenious, speedy,heedless ot personal danger, lie went al the Hunlike Samson with the well-known Jaw bone—onlythis young Samson's Jaw bone was that nice longtrench knife you see strapped along his pack.Just what this young fellow ilid Is not told ; evi-dently he Is a natural-born fighter and the regulararmy training has made him pretty nearly 1110 percent efficient as an all-around lighting man.

Private H. J. Devoreaux, Company M, One Hun-dred nnd Twenty-fifth Infantry. Thirty-second di-vision.—When his company crossed the HiverOurCci and captured the Itois 1'olger. the corporalof Ills squad fighting beside Private Devereauxwas wounded by machine gun lire. The corporalfell to the ground and the enemy continued to lireon the wounded man. Mad clear through, Dever-eaux sprinted across the open and. single-handed,attacked and put the machine gun out of action.

Greatest Feat of War.It Is also known that Chase has painted a por-

trait of Sergt. Alvln C. York of I'all Mall, Fentresscounty, Teiiu., Company (I, Three Hundred andTwenty-eighth infantry, Eighty-Second division. ItIs to be hoped that the painter did a tlrst-class Job,for York's exploit was probably the greatest Indi-vidual feat of tho war. York, then corporal, onOctober 8, li)I8, killed 2(1 Germans, captured 1U2prisoners, including a major and three lieutenants,put 85 machine guns out of business, and therebybroke up an entire battalion which was about tocounterattack against the Americans on Hill 228in the Argonne sector, near Chatel-Chehery. Heoutfought the machine gun battalion with Ills ritleand automatic pistol. There were seven otherAmericans with York, but It was York's fight andbut for him not a man of them would have comeout alive except as prisoner. •

Moreover, the man and his home nnd bis sur-roundings are intensely interesting, being entirelyout of the ordinary. Here are a few outstandingfacts:

He was born December 18, 188fi, stands 15 feetand tips the scales at 205 pounds. He is red head-ed. He Is a dead shot—absolutely sure death witheither rifle or automatic; In the course of his tighthe killed a German lieutenant and seven men whocharged him from a distance of 20 yards. He is afighter who gets cooler and cooler as the dangergrows.

l ie used to drink, gamble and swear. He quitin 1015 and Joined (he Church of Christ andChristian Union, of which he is second elder andsinging leader. He was a conscientious objectoruntil convinced by dipt. K. C. B. Danforth atCamp Gordon that the Bible proved it his duty tofight. He believes in a personal God and looksupon his successful exploit as a miracle. " 'Blessedis the peacemaker,' " be says,

He is a farmer and blacksmith and provides forhis mother, one brother and tiirpp small sisters;the other six brothers and sisters are married.Ills forbears for generations were Tennesseenns.

When York landed the other day tlaj Tennesseesociety took possession of him and tried to makehim feel that New York city was his.

Of course York was having the time of his life,yet really, you know, be was regretting that hewasn't home to lead the singing at the PossumTrot spring revival.

And at tile l'ossom Trot revival, in the valleyof which I'all Mall, with its 20 houses, is the cross-roads metropolis, York's neighbors were prouderover tin' fai't thai he bad "kept straight" thanover what lie had done to the Hun. Besides, whileAlvln was "all right," (lot! had luul him in chargeSince the day he enlisted. "It wasn't Alvln," saidGrace Williams, who is waiting for him, "it wasthe hand of God."

Which reminds us of the first words of the Hunmajor captured by York.

"Brltlshr he asked."American," said York."LiOoil I.ortl !"

The location withreference to schools, the street, thecharacter of the residents of theneighborhood nnd above all the prob-ability of that locality Improving Inpopularity, nnd consequently in value,and whether or not the improvements,.such as water nnd pavements, havebeen made, all should be taken intoconsideration,

Selection of Design.The site chosen, then comes the

selection of tlie design for the home.It Is not good policy to build a $10,000home on a $300 site; neither shoulda *4.<KK) house be built on a $4,000site. The house should be somethinglike In value the others In the neigh-borhood, for the reason that theremay come a time when it will be nec-essary to sell It.

Illustrated herewith is a modernwood bungalow of. «ix rooms, a sizethat will provide lor the needs of theaverage family and will be rend Mysalable should that be necessary.The dimensions of the bungalow are29 feet G Inches, hy 43 feet, whichallows plenty of lawn and gardenspace on a 50-foot lot. The exteriorof this bungalow Is exceptionally at-tractive, the wide porch across thefront, the long sweep of the roof andthe dormer window in the nttic allmake it one of which any owner canbe proud,

The house is of standard wood con-struction, set off by a porch withhrick pillars nnd cement steps. ThisIs economical construction and pro-vides a good weather-tight house.

Room Arrangement.All of the rooms in this bungalow

nre, of course, on the ttrst floor, butthe roof slope permits a large atticspace, which helps to keep the housewarm In winter and cool in summer.The floor plan shows the room ar-rangement. Across tile front of thehouse nre tho living room and libraryadjoining, liack of the loft end ofthe living room are the dining roomnnd kitchen, while on the other sideare two bedrooms with the bath be-tween.

The living room Is of good size, 20feet by 11 feet 0 Inches, while the col-onnade between it and the library, Sfeet by 11 feet 6 Inches, make the twopractically one room. The fireplncewith seats on either side nnd windowsabove are nt one end of the livingroom, while In the library are built-in book cases on either side of thewindow.

The same colonnade effect is usedbetween the living and dining rooms.The dining room Is 14 by 11 feet 6

the balance to the contractor Inmonthly payments, securing him withn second mortgage. In this wny themonthly rent payment will In thecourse of a number of years securethe home for the owner.

Building n home now Is an invest-ment that no man who uses ordinarilygood judgment in the selection of nlot nnd a design for the house willever regret.

TOPS OF UNBLEACHED MUSLIN

Spreads Are Delightfully Easy toMake and Are Both Decorative

and Artistic.

This Is the time for some lovely un-bleached muslin spreads. They are de-lightfully easy to make nnd ever soartistic. Make a square of tlie muslin(sometimes it Is possible to get Itwide enough to fashion the entire cov-er without piecing), and border thesquare with a three-Inch hand of col-ored chuml>rny (rose or bUie would bepretty), and I hen place a motif of thechambray In the center—It mattersnot how simple It Is, though you canmake It as handsome as you please.Floral designs are Ihe best, and youwill he surprised what pretty flowersyou can yourself draw fur the pur-pose. Pencil them upon Ihe center ofthe spread, or, better yet, pencil themupon paper and cut them out. Thenplace the paper design upon thespread nnd draw a pencil line aboutthe edges, thus transferring the pat-tern to the muslin. Next proceed toplace the paper designs over the color-ed chfunbray and cut out the cham-bray accordingly, except that the

Imnihrny should extend a good eighthof an Inch heyond the paper patterns,for turning in. Next place the centerot the cutout chamhray designs to thecenter of the penciled designs andplace a pin in the center to hold themtogether. Proceed to turn In the edges

Certainly women are wonderingabout fall headgear. Thla hat, a newcreation for the coming season, is ofnavy and white taffeta. It it very becoming and youthful.

FINDINGS ADD TO EXPENSE

Home Dressmaker Knows That ItPays to Save Accessories From

Discarded Garments.

Findings, these days, may wellmount up Into several dollnrs for evena very simple frock, as we soon dis-cover if we attempt n little home dress-making, either with or without the aidof a seamstress. Reltlng by the yard,hooks and eyes, snaps, sewing silk,have all advanced enormously, and ap-parently have no Immediate intentionof coming down In price.

And so it really Is worth while toconserve these accessories of dressmak-ing in a munner that hns not beenthought of by American women formany years. But why should we notsave them ? It hardly ever happensthat hooks and eyes nnd buttons areworn out when a garment Is worn out.

Of course if we give the garmentsaway, then it is decidedly Inconsid-erate and a piece of false thrift to robthem of buttons or other fasteners, butif we wear the garment out ourselves—nnd most of us do nowadays—thenwe should take care that all findingsare taken out before the garment goesinto the rag bag.

And so the gentle art of ripping maybe revived. We may find It expedientto rip apart wornout silk frocks Insearch of the pieces of Rood silk thatcan be used to make the top of a silkpetticoat, or parts of H white summerfrock; for pieces of shoer materialthat can be washed nnd freshened touse in making linings to frocks lateron.

Laundering Organdie.Add two tiihlespoonfuls of prepared

gam arable water to a Quart of luke-warm water and dip the organdie,iifter It has been dried, ir.to this; rollthe garment into a tight roll and allowto get partly dry; take an atomizerontaining lukewarm water; with this

The Model 3H Touring far U otrikingly differrnt in appearance. I heradiator m higher and dn per, with thr hiMidlinr almiMt horizontnl hack to tinaloping shield, while the roll of the body hides continues unbrukrn from therounded nose of the radiator Io the rise of thr back Heal. Square doors of un-usual dimension further emphasize the sirai^htliuc effect.

Hoth front and rrar seat backs are higher and more derply cuHhinnrd.The seata thrmarlvrs tilt comfortably and are uphutatcrfd throughout withreal leather over curled hair in r'rencii-plailed effect. The extreme width ufthe cushion, always ao desirable, is fully retained.

The windshield is made rainproof by overlapping glass. The top islower, of Drednaut waterproof material bound with nickel moulding, and pro*vidtd with curtains and brackets which readily attach to and open tb# doors.There is a plate-glass window in the rear curtain... .The aide curtains areatored in an envelope overhead.

The rigid oak framework and heavy steel panels of the Vrlie body iswell worthy of lhr"mirrur" finish placed upon it. Forty days of handworkand the beat of paint and varnish are required to produce the lustre for whichVelie cars are famous. Careful comparison will reveal the painstaking effortwhich has entered into the creation of the new Six.

In fact, the Velie manufacturing experience of half a century has foundgreatest expression in the Model 38.

Ask for a demonstration. Let your Velie dealer prove to your ownsatisfaction the better values found in the Velie Six. Have him show you itspower, its flexibility and speed. Try it out for genuine comfort, for easy rid-ing and simple control. You can but agree after actual comparison that theVelie Six gives greatest values at lowest cost.

Mi'-. Sti'jip—Mrs. Anna Stepp she li—told this part of Iho story :

"Until a month RffQ I hadn't heardfrom Hjilph for two yean and a half—even before America got In the wnrmall was held up, I didn't knowwhether he w;is In Ihc army or Dot—but I was sun1 lie wfis, became—well.bacauia be is an American." Hernshe stopped a minute to smile up athim.

"After awhile we hcnvii from somefriends thai he wnn In the nrmy—andthat lie hud eoma over here. That wa*al] I ever knew. Tt's nearly five yearnsince I have seen him 1

"Of course It wns awfully hard—Tcouldn't pet word to him and hrcouldn't to me. My btwband used totell in* It wouldn'i help Riilph any forme to cry. I tried not to—before therest of them anyway. My dauk'hterpot worfie gtemlily—she Is ro betterWe couldn't (fet the proper food forher after awhile. And she bated toBee me worried about Ralph, so I usedto try to keep up before them.

"Last January my husband rnme toCoblenz about his citizen papers. AnAmericas soldier In Ralph's company•who was In tbe office heard his nameand asked him if he was any relationto Ralph. He didn't tell him Ralphwas In Ooblenz, hul went after Ralph.He didn't tell Kolph his father washere. When they met they couldn'tbelieve their eyes.

"Ever since then I hnve been tryinpto see Ralph. lie couldn't come toWeishtulen because it was out of theAmerican area, find I couldn't pelthrough until today—more than twomonths."

They nskerl her If her Tlnlph hailchanged much In nil Mint time.

"Oh, yes—very much. But do youknow, I think it Is because nil thatlone time when I didn't know wherehe was or how lie was—I pot In thehabit of Ibinklni: of him as lie wnswhen be was a b;ihy—I kept seeinghim ns fl baby end. remembering theway he felt when he was little. Isn'tthat.queer? And now look at lilm !"

And the corporal tried not to see theadorn lion in her eyes

"Five years is si long time to wailto see your hoy," she murmured, andkept ber eyes on him. Apnin she hadforgotten thp people around her.

The corporal cleared his throat."This is why I nsk d you if you couldkeep my mother, MIHS \Voi<dsm;ill. Ididn't wffnt her to mini' unless shehad a pood place to slay, Ah, e-e-r—tbiinks HWfully."

And that Is the story of how theHostess House happened to entertainthe only known A. E. F. mother whohos visited the .u-mv of OueuuiuLou.

If be and the district bonni ennagree upon the terms of the cancella-tion or modification of the contract,that agreement is written in ihe formdf a reconimendntion and sent downtn Washington for ibe Board ofClaims, and is here passed upon by IheBoard of Claims of the bureau or di-vision of Ordnance, Quartermaster,Signal Corns, or whatever it may bo.Now, if they cnnmit agree there Is an-other agency set up in Washington,known as the Hoard of Contraci Ad-justment, composed of three eminentnun. So the contractor docs not !IRV«to take the judgment of the local dis-Irld Itoard, but he enn lay his matter!before a disinterested tribunal here lriWashington, Of course, he does nothave in accept the decision of theHoard of Contract Adjustment, If heprefers lie can go lo the Court ofClaims and start litigation which Is,however, always, unfortunate, becausenf the legriih of time it takes; but thatremedy Is not closed lo him.

We have had this thought In mindfrom the beginning, that the most Im-portant thing tbe War Departmentcould do, so far as Industry and com-merce are concerned, is to bring aboutn speedy adjustment of Ilipse claims,in order that the people of this countrywho are engaged In industry and com-merce may know exactly what theycan expeel in the way of paymentfrom iln- Government, .lust how muchthey can reiy upon In opening up theirnew business or reorganized business,ami lo speedily w.-i about duiif lu

The problem of HIUIHK fruit wllb-out the use of Hugar may bo solved Inseveral ways :

dinning fruit In water.Canning fruit juices without sugar.('aiming fruit In fruit Juleo.Owning fruit butters without sugar.Drying fruit.

Canning In Water.(n) Open Itcltle: Gently simmer tho

fruit In very little water, allowing thewnter lo evaporate as much as possi-ble Fill sterilized cans with thohulling hot fruit ami seal, no not ex-pect tbe fruit to keep Its shape. Thiswill make excellent pie filling.

(10 Cold puck: rack the fruit veryclosely In the cans. Fill with wnler.cover and .stenm from twenty lo thirtyminutes, according to the hardness ofthe fruit and tho degree ot ripeness.TIIP Hklns will burst, and peeled fruitwill drop shreds to tbe bottom of thecan, hut the shape will bo kept.

(e) Hot pack for small tour fruits,Ruch ns cherries: Pack iho fruit quick-ly in a hot Jnr. Kill tbe jav ut once,with boiling waler. Clamp nnd setQuickly Into :. bolSor or large pull con-taining boiling water enough lo cover.Beroove the boiler at once from thostove nnd let the jnr cool In It. Suc-cess In this ibod depends onpromptness. The fruit will remain un-broken.

Any fruit Juice extracted for Jellymay be canned without sugar by re-heat Inn to the boiling point, liningsterilized Jars and sealing. This juicemay be used for Savoring sauceg, forbeverages or for Jelly making. Ifspace must be saved, the Juice may beevaporated to one-half Its volume be-fore canning.

Fruit JUICCH may bo canned withoutsugar now. There may bo .sugar Interfor Jelly making. If not, the Juiceswill keep till next season.Com Syrup for Fruits, Preserves and

Jellies.

If it Is preferred to sweetun thefruit when It Is canned, while cornByrup will be found to be the laostdesirable of the sugar substitutes. ItIs cheaper and more plentiful thaninnplo syrup or honey, and It coversdp the natural flavor of tho fruit less.One. cup of corn syrup Is more thanequal to one cup of sugar in foodvalue, but It takes one anil ono-halfto one nnd two-lhirds cups of syrupto give the nnme, degree of sweetnessas one cup of sugar gives.

"The deuce yon say!" cried Barnes."We will get right down to tncks."

"Confound your Impudence! I—""One of my purposes In revealing

"Will you be good enough, Mr,Sprouse, to tell me just what you aretrying to get at? I know nothing what-ever against Mr. Curtis and hisfriends. Yon assume a great deal—"

"Excuse me, Mr. Bnrnes. I'll admitthat you don't know anything againstthem, but you suspect n whole lot. Tobegin with, you suspect thnt two menwere shot to dentil because they wereIn wrong with someone at OreenFancy. Now I could tell you whoIheso two tnpn really were and whyIhey were shot. Hut I shn'n't do nny-Ililng of the sort—at least not at pres-ent."

Bnrnes wns Impressed. "Perhaps3'ou will condescend to tell me whoj'ou are, Mr. Sprouse. I am very muchIn the dark."

"I am a speclnl agent—but not aspy, sir—of a government that Isfriendly to yours. I nm known InWashington. My credentials nre notto be questioned.

"Well," began Barnes deliberately,ll{ guess you will have to take achance witli me. Mr. Sprouse, for I re-fuse to commit myself mil II I knowexactly what you nre Tip lo."

"In the first place, Mr. Barnes," saidSprouse, salting his eggs, "you hnvebeen thinking thnt I was sent downfrom Green Fancy to spy on you.l.'in't Hint so?"

"I am answering no questions, Mr.Sprouse."

"You were wrong," said Sprnuse, nsIf Bfirnea hud answered in the affir-mative.

"Jones has been talking to you,"ftnld Barnes. "But you said a momentago tliat you were up at (ireen Fancylast night. Not by invitation, I take11."

"I invited myself," paid Sprouse suc-r.nctly. "Are you Inclined to favormy proposition?"

UTilte Impossible for me to get Insidethat house. You appear to hnve theeatree. You are working In the dark,tuesslng at every'blng. I am guess-Ing nt nothing. By combining forces»'e should bring this thing to a hend,and—"

"Just a moment. You expect me toabuse the hospitality of—"

"I shall hnve tn speak plainly, Is»e." He leaned forward, fixingJinnies with a pair of steady, earnestyes. "Six month* ago * certain royal

I f M in Ktirope- was i!i\spo|led of Itstowels, Its privy seal, Ht niost precious'tate ilni'iinu'iits nnd its dinner. They• live lieen traced to the 1'nlted States.

Mm here tn recover them. That islie foundation of my .'lory, Mr.<>rr.ei.•t,'hxf\ divulging Hie name of the

house I will sny that Its sympathieshavu been from the ouUet friendly tothe entente allies —especially withFrance. There are two brunchpN ofthe ruling family, one In power, theother practically In exile. The stateis II small one, but Its Integrity Is nfthe highest. Its suns nml daughter*!hnve married Intn the royal familiesof nearly nil of the great nations ufthe continent. The present—or 1should nay, the Inte ruler, for he diedon a Held of bnttle not ninny mouthsago, luul no direct heir. He wnsyoung and unmarried. I am not permltted to state with what army hiwas fighting, nor on which front hiwns killed. It Is only necessary tiKay that his little state was gobble!up by the Teutonic allies. The branchof the family mentioned ait being 1exile lent Its support to the cause oiGermany, nut for moral reasons huIn the hope nnd with the understandIng, I am to believe, that the crownlands would he the reward. The dlrect heir to the crown Is a cousin ofthe late prince. He Is now a prisonerof war In Austria. Other members ofthe family arc held by the Bulgariansas prisoners of war. It Is not stretchIng the Imagination very far to pic-ture them as nlreudy dead and out ofthe way. At the close of the war, IfGermany Is victorious, the crown wllbe placed upon the head of the pre-tender brunch. Are you followingme?"

"Yes," said Barnes, Ids nerves tin-gling. He was beginning to seegreat light.

"Almost under the noses of thefor-es left by the Teutonic allieshold the Invaded territory the crownJewels, charter and so forth, hereto-fore mentioned, as they say In legalparlance, were surreptitiously removedfrom the palace and spirited away bypersons loyal to the ruling branch ofthe family. As I hnve stated, I am en-gaged In the effort to recover them.

"Now we come to the present situ-ation. Some months ago a member ofthe aforesaid royal house arrived Inthis country by way of Japan. He Isn distant cousin nf the crown, and 'Ina way remotely looked upon as theheir apparent. Later on ho seques-tered himself In Canada. Our agentsIn Europe learned but recently thatwhile he pretends to be loyal to theruling house he Is actually schemingngnlnst It. I hnve been ordered torun him to enrth, for there Is everyreason to believe thnt the men whosecured the treasure have been dupedInto regarding him as the avowedchampion of the crown. Now, Mr.Bnrnes, without telling you how I havearrived at the conclusion, I am pre-pared to state that I believe this manto he at Oreen Fancy, and that In timethe loot—to use n hnrsh word—will bedelivered to him there. I am here toget It, one way or another, "when thntcomes to pass."

"What led you to suspect that heIs nt Oreen Fancy, Mr. Sprouse?"

"History. It Is known that this Mr.Curtis hns spent a grent denl of timeIn the country alluded to. As n mnt-ter of fact, his son, who lived In Lon-don, had rather extensive business In-terests there. This son was killed inthe Bnlkan war several years ago. ItIs said that the man I am looking forwas a friend of young Curtis, whomarried a Miss O'Dowd In London—the HoOoruble Miss O'Dowd, daughterof an Irish peer und sister of the chnpyou hnve met nt Green Fnncy. Aboutsix weeks ago a former equerry In theroyal household arrived In New York.Through him I learned that the daugh-ter of the gentleman in whose housethe senior Mr. Curtis was a frequentguest hud beeu in the United Stntessince some time prior to the beginningof the war. She was visiting friendsin the States and hns been unable toreturn to her own land, for reasonsthat must be obvious. I may ns wellconfess that her father was, by mar-rtape, an uncle of the late ruler.

Since the Invasion nnd overthrowof her country by the Teutonic alliesshe has been endeavoring to raisemoney lure for the purpose of equip-ping and supporting the remnants ofthe small army that fought so valiant-ly in defense of the crown. Thesemen, a few thousand only, are nt pres-ent interned in a neumil country. Ileave" you tn guess what will happen ifshe succeeds In supplying them witharms nnd ammunition. Her work isbeing carried on witti tlie greatest se-crecy. To bring the slory to a close,

was instructed to keep close watchon tlie man O'Dowd. I traced himto this place. I was on the point ofreporting to my superiors that he wnsIn no way associated with the much-sought-after crown-cousin, and thatGreen Fnncy was ns free from taints the village chapel, when out of nlenr sky nnd almost under my very

nose two men were mysteriously doneawny with at the very gates of theplace, The killing of those two menchanged the aspect completely, Youwill certninly agree with me after 1have explained to you thnt the oneknown as Andrew Roon was no otherthan the equerry who had undertakesto tlnd the—young woman."

Barnes drew a long breath. Hismind was made up. He had decidedto pool Issues with the secret agent,but not until he wns convinced thatthe result of tliolr co-operation wouldIn no way Inflict a hardship upon theyoung woman who had appealed tohim for help. He wns certain thnt shewns the fair propagandist describedby Sprouse.

"And the young woman, what ofher? She would. In any case, he heldfor examination ami—"

Flowers and Nature Have Always Figured Prominently in Their

Paintings and Writings.

Thp Orient was always fond nf (low-ers. In primitive times the Arnhsstudied the big herbals of Byzantinedoci#rs nnd scientists nnd copied flow-er after flower In their own man-ner; they loved them, but they wereunconscious of tlielr beauty. Whenthey wnnted to ndorn they only usedthe conventionalised form of the lotusnnd the nrabesque flower consecratedby hundreds of years of tradition.Later on Chinese masters taught themthe living benuty of flowers. In theMongol miniatures they study theblossoming almond tree and the Iris,but In the sixteenth century only theybegin to love the flower for itself—to sfudy each leaf, each petal, eachline and each hue of color. Theyshow the same intimate love for de-tail which Inspired the landscapes ofBehead. Their tandsenpes are alwayslike the poems of Ilallz—sunny, cheer-ful and gay. Nothing more charmingthnn these meetings of kings nnd prin-cesses in the greens under richly em-broidered tents with musicians nnddancers. And no difference If thenrtlst pnlnts one of the cruel bloodyscenes of the nntlqtle "Shnhnameh";must It not he n wonderful feeling tobe executed by the order of the kingIn his Illustrious presence, with re-tainers and maidens nround, the sunshining, a soft wind covering your headnnd shoulders with the pink petnlsof the nlmond tree in flower?

'ole Star, the One WhichSeems to Keep Its Place

Without Any Movement.

Most people, if they know nothingIHC of astronomy, ut any rnt« know

the pole star, tin1 onp star which seemsto keep its place m the heavens with-out movement of any kind, snyn nwriter In the Keliohoth Sunday Her-ald. There are a great many, however,who <io not know what a wonderful'tUtiK it Is. In thn first place, It can'je Ki-:i when looked at through a gooutelescope to he two starH and not one.There is one fRirly hrlght one, of whatis known as the tKCOBd magnitude,and another of the ninth magnitudeClose tn It.

Iiut that Is nrrt all. The brighter ofthe two Is really three stars revolv-lor round one another, or, rather,round their common center of gravity,like three children playing "ring a ringof roses."

This secret Is revealed to ua bywhat Is perhaps the most astonishing iof all scientific Instruments, the apec- [

troscope. It not only tells us what tlieHtiirs arc made of. but whether theyare moving toward us or away fromus.

When you stand facing the Waryou are ulways facing north. The ren-ROII that It doen not appear to moveas the others do Is thnt It Is nearlyIn line with the axis of tbe earth. Itsdistance from us Is enormous. Thiscan be judged from the fact that al-though the earth In its journey nntunilthe sun Is today about ]fi0.000,0fl0miles from where It was six month*ago, that makes DO appreciable differ-ence to Its distance from the pole star.It must therefore be many times 1U0,-000,000 miles away.

Flash of Lightning.

A flash of Hghmlng, it Is claimed,lights up the ground for nne-nillliunthof a second, yet It seems tn last muchlonger. What happens is that the Im-pression remains In the retina of theeye for about one-eighth of a second,or 124,000 times longer thnu the flashlasts.

Getting at That Potato Bug With aHand Sprayer.

ral Inches. When In the course of a'ew days they aguln emerge, theylave taken the form of parent beetles.

Meant of Control.The Colorado potato beetle Is one

if the pests most easily controlled. It'eeds readily on poisoned foliage, andhe well-known treatments of spruy-ng or dusting with nrsenate of leadir purls green should be familiar tovery grower. The spray mixture may

be prepared In small quantities bymixing two-thirds of an ounce, or ten

vel teaspoonfuls of powdered ar-sennte of lead with a gallon of water.

'his should be applied with a spray-r capable of throwing a fine, misty

spray. A good atomizer will do ef-ctive work on a small scale, at a

ost of n dollar or less. The upperurfaces of the leaves should be w«U•overed by the spray. A simple meth-id of dusting Is to mix thoroughly theinme quantity of powdered arsenateif lend or a heaping tablespooofui ufnrls green with a quart of nlr-slakedme or lime plaster. Dust this over

he plants by shaking through aheesecloth bag.

APPLYING A SUMMER SPRAY

Work Should Be Performed With Noz-zle Giving Good Mist With the

Pressure Used.

The summer spray should be ap-ileri with (i no7.7.1e giving a good mistlth the pressure used. At the timef application of the petal-fall Rpray,16 calyx stands with tlie open partp, and the spray must be deliveredrom above. The object of the petal-ill spray is to till the calyx cup full

poison.

Growing Parsnips.Parsnips grow well on almost any.11 provided It Is well cultivated. Asrule parsnips will do better tha potn-

3es on heavy soils and on sod land Ifis has been thoroughly dug to a suf-lent depth.

Ice to Cool Cream.Under general conditions nhout onemud of ire will he required to coolill keep one pound of cream In goodmdltlon until delivered to the cream-•y, when deliveries are mail« threemes a week.

These pests can he destroyed hytrapping on Htiiall areas where the Infestntlon Is not extensive and where ItIn undesirable to pot out poison.Twelve to Kl Imps un acre may boIIMII. The tunnels of the pine n o n eshould he excavated sufficiently toadmit the trap on a level with the bot-tom, a garden trowel being used fordigging.

Where mire are abundant on largeareas poisoned bait should he dis-tributed In tea"poonftil quantities Inthe mouse runs and at the entrance ofburrows. A mixture containing oneounce of powdered strychnine, out*once Af powifered bicarbonate of soda.and one-eighth ounce of saccharin**should be sifted from n perforated tinbox over 50 pounds of crushed wheator -1(1 pounds of crushed oats, mixingthe grain constantly so that the poiwmwill be uniformly distributed. Thisdry mixture may be kept Indefinitelywithout dnnger of fermentation.

Where It Is necessary to use wholeoats, the poison must penetrate thekernels, because mice hull the oat",before, eating them. Hence tt la es-sential to dissolve one ounce of strych-nia sulphate In two quarts of boilingwuter.

LITTLE DAMAGE DONE BEES

No Particular Harm Will Result InSpraying Apple Treea With Lime-

Sulphur Solution.

According to Prof. H. A. Surface,Pennsylvania zoologist, little damagewill result to bees in spraying appletrees with lime-sulphur when the blos-soms are open. It has been found thatbees do not like to feed upon flowerscovered with lime-sulphur. Observationthen would Indicate that there Is lit-tle danger to bees from such spraying.

STAPLE ARTICLES OF FOOD

City People Will Buy Beef, Pork andMutton So Long as Prices Are

Reasonable.

Reef, pork and mutton doubtless willcontinue to be staple articles of foodfor city people so long as they can buythese foods at any reasonable price.It would seem that farmers who raisea few calves, lambs, and pigs for thelocal market would have a goodchance to market their feed to ad-vantage.

TROUBLE WITH YOUNG LAMBSWhite Scoura Is Caused by Digestive

Disorder*—Milk of MagnesiaWill Help Cure.

White scours In lambs is caused bydigestive disorders. Lambs with thistrouble should be taken away fromtheir mothers and allowed only a lit*tie milk. A tnbiespoonful of milk ofmagnesia will help cure the trouble.Milk the udder out before letting aiamb nurse.

RIGHT PLACE FOR MATERIAL

Not Advisable to Keep All Sizes ofBolts and Screws in Single

Receptacle.

(Prepared by the United States Depart-ment of Agriculture.)

Tools nnd materials should be keptn their proper places. Do not keep

all sizes of bolts or screws mixed to-gether In a single receptacle, hut fittil suitable boxes or bins, so that thesupplies may be accessible on shortnotice.

Preparing Bean Land.A heavy clover sod turned under this

coming fall or very early next springwill make a tine seeubed for next sea-son's Held beans. The maintenance ofgood tilth up to Ihe time of seeding is

[ a further perequislte for a fine yield.

Cultivation of Beans.Never cultivate beans while tho fo-

age is wet with dew or fog, hut worklem between the rows with a hoe orand cultivator at least once a weekfter they are three Inches high.

Hay While Moon Shines.Making buy while the BMMB shines Issensible policy on days when it Is toojt for such strenuous work ns hay-aking. Taking for granted, of course,mt there is a moon.

Cultivate Garden Crops.Ciirden crops should be given fre-

uent and shallow cultivation to keepown the weeds nnd retain moisture.

Propagate Red Raspberries.lied rnxjlh'-rrles are propagated hy

tickers or offsets from the old plant.

Trimming FeetA much neglected duty on many

stock farms Is that of occasionallylooking over the feet of horses, cattle,sheep, or hogs, and trimming thosethat have grown out long and are Indanger of breaking off.

Kill Potato Bug Early.Kill the Colorado potato beetles, or

potato "bugs" early In the season be-fore they start raising their family ofhungry little buglets.

Constant Labor.Man und horse labor should be em-

ployed constantly throughout theyear.

Interest In Fowl*.Poultry raising Is a division of agri-

culture that appeals to more peoplothan any other division.

PARLORTYRREL AUSTIN, PROP.

To The Voters Of Ocean County AndEspecially, At This Time, The

Republican Voters.After very carefully studying conditions in this county, nml after talking

with many tax payers and voters. I herewith annoniue myself a candidaU forthe Genera] Assembly at the Coming Primary Election.

Some of my reasons fur so doing are as follows: That at Iliii timeOcean County does not have one live industry within its borders. Its agricul-tural conditions, which is the backbone of our entire country, are tlm mostbackward of any county within the State. While it contalni ont of the bestfruit, vej-eUible ami berry growing sections of the United .States, yot it pro-duces the least of any county in the State of New Jersey. The soil of thiscounty ranks second to none in the whole State, yet it pro luces the least.

Now, fellow tax payers and voters, just ask yourself the simple questionwliy? Is it that tliis county has been u.-eil from year to yc;ir anil year by

yetr as a political buffer to barter, or is it that the people arc not willingto have their county rank as one of the leading counties of this (Jraml OldState? I believe the people are willing should they get the proper leaders.

I am offering myself to you and my services are yours should you give meyoui votes, which will not cost you one cent to give, ami should 1 be nom-ituueil iimt aUctsxl, 1 assure you that nothing shall ever be neglected to helpwork out a good, prosperous future for Ocean County.

Theie are other things which should lie remedied to mow fully satisfy .the people of the county and which they are entitled to have, among whichare the game and fish laws. That the game and fish laws of the Stale seemto be at the present time "Class Legislation," should be so remedied and re-

.moceleci that they would suit the masse- as well as tho claui I, an.I thai zonelaws governing the migratory birds should ba established tlmtout the UiiitedState:..

That the question of the deer roaming at large, ravaging the crops of therural farmers should be remedied and the proper protection given Lh.i; famier.

The building of "good roads," which coming very rapidly before the taxpayers should be worked oui ery carefully and economically that the ruraldistricts, as well as the main thoroughfares should be made a part of the en-tire system, unti that all toll bridges and toll roedB should be eliminated andmade tree for travel.

The over-burden of taxation growing from year to year, should beremedied. That the geographical location o£ Ocean County is ideal, muivj'/

| between New York, Philadelphia and Atlantic City, and within easy re;i«i< *[the most populous section of the whole United States, ,ii ,,i;,i n, »v it &the molt attractive places for advancement ;-.mi what ,\ n hoin thi!

]on are men who "Will Represent this County" and place it among other p5X.pcrous counties of the State. With our many thousand acres of land lyingidle, undeveloped and unpopulated, producing nothing, not even enough topay its taxes, should be uut to some practical uses whereby its value wouldincrease many fold and by so doing would helti reduce the htiavy rate of tuxeswhich are being imposed on the people of thia county al the present time.

That while automobiles, which are of tiie j . iy for travelami traffic, should ho taxed foj a reasonable an [pro] an unt, there shouldnot be a tax burden placed on them as it is at the present time.

That I mry be put in a position whereby I could render the best serviceto the peojile of Ocean County, I earnestly ask your 3Uppi rt at ilns comingPlimary Election, assuring you, should 1 be nominated arid elected, I shallpromote such legislation whereby Ocean Countj as well as the whole .Statewould benefit from such, and that this county may be advanced to a pros-perous position among other counties of the State.

Appreciating your valued support which I believe you will give me at thecomine; Primary Election, I again assure you I shall at a'l times, work foryour interests which are the interests of the entire County.

Very truly yours,

(Paid for by W. H. Spangler)

NEVER was such right-handed-two-fisted smokejoy as you puff out of a

jimmy pipe packed with Prince Albert IThat's because P. A. has the quality!

You can't fool your taste apparatus any more than youcan get five aces,out of a family deck! So, when vou hitPrince Albert, coming and going, and get up half an hourearlier just to start stoking your pipe or rolling cigarettes,you know you've got the big prize on the end of your line I

Prince Albert's quality alone puts it in a class of its own,but when you figure that P. A. is made by our exclusivepatented process that cuts out bite and parch—well—youfeel like getting a flock of dictionaries to find enough wordsto express your happy days sentiments!
