house with the mystery of the cellar
remaining unsolved, if there is any
mystery at ALL"
My old nurse insisted on my remain
ing at her house for dinner, and left
me seated on the porch while she went
inside to prepare the meal.
From my seat could see the station
far down the hill, through the trees.
Two men were moving about on the
platform, but the distance was too
great to allow distinction of anything
but their forms.
Remembering then that my field
glass had been left here at Sarah's
house on the morning of my arrival, I
called in to have her bring it to me,
which she did.
Taking the glass from the case adj
justed it to my eye and then turned it
toward the station.
My sight had not deceived me even
in the momentary glimpse of the face
at the window.
The face. was Horace Jackson's, and
there the fellow was now, standing on
the edge of the platform, speaking most
earnestly, judging by the vehement
gestures, to the station agent.

CHAPTER XIV.

CHAPTER AlN.
The rest of the day was spent at
Sarah's house. Here at least were
quiet, calm and peace. No uncanny
mysteries, no disturbing influences
married the restfulness. The old nurse
herself was certainty; no doubts and
fears were produced by her society.
BY her absolute faith in me, by the
many little expressions of devotion to
my best interests, a feeling of security
was inspired, so that when started on
the homeward journey the influence Of
Sarah's peaceful abode went with me.
The sun was hanging low, and cool
breeze had risen. insisted upon
walking, much against Sarah's wish.
But the horses had had hard day in
the fields, and would not allow them
to be taken from the cool clover patch.
Reminding the good-hearted woman
of her promise to drive over to Nelson
vile early in the morning, started up
the road toward home The dust had
been laid by the heavy shower of the
morning; the air was Tracing; the last
song of the birds was sounding; the
patches of woodland through which
passed were resplendent in the rays of
the dying sun, which shot golden
shafts through the leafy masses; over
all were calm and peace and solitude.
My spirits answered to the influences
of nature, and in happy reflective
mood 1 proceeded on my way. In my
mind one beautiful object predomi-
nated-Florence.
With the lovely phases of the peace
full evening appealing to the sense, it
seemed natural for my thoughts to
| turn to the beloved one-to dwell on
her goodness, her faith, her love for
| me.
Anticipation of future happiness,
when my darling should be always at
my side, should be in my life, rounding
it out in the fullness of content, en-
crossed my mind. There were no
cruel forbodings, no forecasting of
dire events, no warnings. Even the
sight of the station agent. Skinner,
cutting across the fields toward Sum
set Hill, caused only temporary re-
lapse from my happy mood.
If SINNERS errand was with the
Morleys. Florence would undoubtedly
refuse him admittance after what /
had told her.

sun had fallen behind the, mountains,
and only the golden rays remained in

the single cloud.

I could not restrain burst OF laugh
ter at the idea of the great powerful
farmer being courageous only in his
wife's presence. Sarah joined heart
lily in my merriment, and remarked
that her husband could be relied upon
to do just what she desired.
"Well, then, can you and Jake come
over to Nelsonville tomorrow morn
ing early and help me dig way into
the cellar?" I asked, again becoming
serious.
"Sure we can," Sarah replied, ex-
citedly.

TO PREVENT TEXAS FEVER,

Mr.. 6. McGannon has small
herd of cattle on his farm about a
mile and half southeast of Seneca
running on fine tame grass aud
clover pasture says the Seneca Dis.
patch. He entertained no fear of
Texas fever on his place. but recently
FIVE head of his cattle died in short
order. He sent for the state cattle
inspector, ID. n. -Jewett of Monet,
who reached here Sunday last. Mr..
Jewett examined the cattle, ascribed
the cause of the deaths in the herd
to Texas tick fever. He found fever
ticks on the herd, canght off some
of them and explained the differ.
ence between fever and the ordin-
airy wood tick. The fever tick does
not expand so large in size as the
wood tick. 1t ia pale blue in ap.
pearance aud is sufficiently small
that the hair Of the animal usually
conceals the fever tick from view.
They may be found in great mum.
bers on an animal and yet so con
cealed as to be scarcely observable,
except by very close inspection. Mr.
Jewett recommended that in order
TO avoid further loss in the herd
the ticks should be removed. Then
he prescribed an application of
common black oil aud crude car
bolic acid, 10 parts of oil to one of
acid. to be applied to the animal,
which can be done most conven-
iently with a broad paint or white
wash brush. This is presumably
the mixture that is used at the dip
ping stations, where arrangements
are made for immersing the ami.
NAL, instead of applying the oil
applying the oil with brush. No
other sickness has appeared in Mr..
McGannon's herd up to this writ
ing since the application of the
above remedy. The application of
this remedy will in itself rid the an
imal in day or two of the ticks
aud keep them of by occasionally
repeating it. The ingredients. com.
mon black oil aud crude carbolic
acid mixed in the proper proper
tions, may be obtaiued at the drug
stores at about 30 cents per gallon
and doubtless cheaper where large
quantities are required. Since tick
fever makes it's appearance only
during the latter portion of the
summer season, il would seem wise
to guard against the ticks by suffi.
cient number of applications of the
above remedy to keep them off the
cattle during the fatal period This
remedy as preventive is very
cheap and should come into uni
versal use, as there is no known
remedy for relief after the animal
becomes III with the fever.

Baxter has few young men who
seem to be afraid of work. At any
rate they don't get their hands or
linen soiled by honest labor. They
put in their time "gadding' around
with girls who seem to be just
about as busy as the boys. These
young men are making q big mis-
take. Now 10 their time to begin to
get start in the world. And the
very girls they run with would be
the last ones to marry them. A
girl may be somewhat of flirt and
like to eat ice cream sodas with
dudes, but when the time comes to
settle down she wants some fellow
who is not afraid of work-one who
has some rustic in him. These
young men may throw up their
hands in holy horror, but we are
telling the truth. They may say
there is nothing for them to do here,
but there is. The old saying that
the place for man TO make a
start in the world is right where he
is," is just as good today as it ever
was.

EDITOR OF THE MODERN LIGHT:-
In several of your recent issues
you have mentioned my name in
connection with the Baxter Springs
NEWS, and in your last issue you
make the statement that am the
owner of that paper.
In this, as in almost everything
else, you are dead wrong. wish
did own the Baxter NEWS for sever
al reasons. In the first place !
would make a strong anti-prohibi'
ton republican paper of it. In the
next place II is a good paying
piece of property, one of the most
reliable newspapers in the county,
published in the best town in
Southeast Kansas, and has no flies,
ticks, bugs or worms. But the fact
is l never had dollars interest in
the NEWS and never dictated or
suggested the policy of the paper.
In years past I "writ' few local
items, lat the request of the EDITOR,
and in his absence tinged the ed
itorial columns with strong anti
anarchist verbs, pronouns and ad-
jectives, but for the past two years
I have not written a political item
for the News.
Now, Mr.. DERRICK, your items con-
Meeting me with the NEWS do me
no harm and if it does you any
good keep it up, but can assure
you that in this you are as far from
the truth as you are from God.

ic, land get a move on YOU
