wishes to secure $50 from Mr.. Mar

basis for his action Mr.. Van Doozer
claims that both Mr.. Martens and Mr..

doing so they failed to show up to
take the prescribed exercise, and
moreover refused to pay for the course
of exercise which they had contracted

Things are growing interesting ev-

works. Heavlin & Martin. owners of
the plant, are said to be holding arm
ed guard over the property over which
they fear the l. & l. people will at
tempt to secure a right-of-way by con-
structing a track upon it. The tile
works are located on this side of Lee
Claire, and a right-of-way has been
condemned by a board of appraisers
named by the sheriff and the damages
assessed at $4,000. The owners want
$4,000, and declare that they will not
allow a tie or a rail to be laid before
that sum is given them.

Animals. Idea Of Numbers.

Many animals have an idea of con-
crete numbers up to few units and
some go evea farther. A dog which
is accustomed to receive only three
pieces of sugar will not ask for more
after he has had his quota. In certain
mines where horses are required to
make thirty trips q day they walk at
once to the stable after making the
thirtieth trip. Montaigne tells of oxen
employed in the royal gardens OF
Suza, that refused to perform more
than their daily task of turning the
Great irrigation wheels through one
hundred revolutions.

The Doctors Failed.

Kilgore, o., April IA rather re-
markable case has just come to light
in this place. Mr.. John Il. Riegle
had been suffering for some time with
an aggravated form of Kidney dis
ease which had caused him great
deal of discomfort.
He tried the treatment Of several
doctors, but did not get any better
At last he CHANGED to read an adver-
tisement of Dodd's Kidney Pills, a
remedy which has been making many
wonderful cures, and he bought some
at once and began TO use them. He
says OF the result:
"Dodd's Kidney Pills do just what
they are advertised to do. can
praise them for the good they have
done for me. They cured me COM
pletcly after the doctors had failed
and | wish that every poor sufferer
could hear of thom, for ! know they
will cure Kidney trouble"
There seems to be no case of Kid
ney Trouble, rheumatism or Back
ache that Dodd's Kidney Pills will
rot cure perfectly and permanently.

rich New Yorker was a frequent visit

Personalities in Milk.

From Germany comes the report Of
the invention of a new milk preserva-
tive so powerful that it will destroy
all bacteria in milk and will then dis.
sipate itself in water making it i'm.
possible for the chemist to discover
is presence, especially if it has been
kept a day or so before being tested.
There is no doubt that If this pre-.
sentative were introduced into this
country it would have a ready sale
with some Of our milk handlers. Their
policy has been TO buy those preserva-
tives that cannot be detected. First
they were using borax in one form
or another, but the chemist had no
trouble in detecting that kind Of
preservative. Then the users of pre-,
5ervatives changed to salicylic acid
but the chemist followed them. After
hat some one suggested that formal
!ehyde could not be detected and at
Dnce there was an enormous sale OF
this deadly chemical for the use OF
milk handlers. 1t took the chemists
iome time to find way of detecting
.ormaldehyde. but they did find test
IN the end. Now the sellers of these
compounds are looking for something
Else that can be used to mystify the
,hemists.
How many deaths have been caused
by the use of these drugs in milk we
will never he able tn guess What
'ver preservative is used in other food
materials, none should be used in
milk that has harmful effect on the
human system. We say harmful, be.
ause there are preservatives, like
'ugar and molasses, that are not
n themselves harmful to the digestive
systems. AS yet many of our states
lave taken no action to prevent the
use Of preservatives in milk.

A Check on Siberian Butter.

During the last few years Siberian
and Russian butter has become q
very important factor in the European
market. About 10000 tons of Siberian
butter went to England each of thu
recent years, and several thousanc
tons more to other European coun
tries. 1t had been improving in qua
ity to such an extent that it was prov
ing strong competitor to the butter
made in Denmark, France and other
countries. The Russian government
was fostering this trade, going to the
trouble of providing refrigerator
steamers to carry the butter from
Baltic ports to England. But now tn
outbreak of the war in the East has
apparently paralyzed the whole trai
ic, at least SO far as Siberian butter
is concerned. The government has
found it necessary to use the Siberian
railway almost exclusively for the
transportation Of troops and of arm.
supplies. AS it is a single-track roaG
it does not require very much of ?
traffic to test its capacity 1t is there
fore very doubtful If the butter car
at the present be shipped west. PEI
haps the government will be able I,
take the entire output of the Siberian
creameries for use in it's Asiatic army
but in any event the butter must TEN
porarily disappear from the Englisl
market.

CHAPTER EIGHT.
The Tragedy.

Churchill's Grove was famous for it's
clambakes, and when John and Jessie
drove into it the scene was one to
delight the heart Of loyal New Eng
lander.
The cool, salt breeze from the ocean,
the aroma from fir and pine, and the
odor from simmering clam and sea-
weed formed a trinity ambrosial
enough to make an Apicius OF an an
chorite.
For an hour or more they walked
along the hard, smooth sand, crunch
ing the shells. under their feet; the
song of the sea in their ears, and its
cool breath on their cheeks. Then
the great gong sounded the signal for
dinner and they turned to the grove.
"Mr. Morris must have been delay
ed" observed Jessie as size glanced
once more toward the harbor. Come
on; we won't wait for him."
They had merry time over dinner
AS they came out from. the grove they
saw the Voltairs at anchor, her upper
works glistening in the sunshine. Her
launch, crowded with passengers, was
just leaving.

Canadian Cheese in Great Britain.

Canadian cheese is apparently TAX
ing veiy high place in the market
of Great Britain. 1t long ago drove
tanned bad name from the amount
of filled cheese that was sent from
this country under the Name of full
cream cheese. Last year canada sup
piled 68 per cent of all the cheese
used in Great Britain, the money re.
ceived from Canadians from this
source being over S21,000,000. So
much for honesty in manufactured
product. Legislation has much to do
with the success of the business OF a
country, as is seen in the case in
hand. When Americans were debat
ing whether it was right to prohibit
the making of filed cheese, Canada
had already passed law prohibiting
the manufacture of a pound of that
kind of cheese for any purpose. Some
men said that it was tyrannical, but
others said 1t was good business fore
sight. The money that has rolled into
Canada since that time on account
OF its good cheese has proved that
the legislation was the best kind Of
business policy. After that time
the United States passed a law max
ing it practically impossible to manu-
facture filed cheese for sale in this
country, but we still permit the manu-
facture Of filed cheese for export tc
foreign countries. Some OF our manu-
facturers are taking advantage Of the
law to make for English trade the
same kind of cheese that lost US our
trade in the first place. 1t goes out
of the country properly branded, but
it is very doubtful if it IS retailed on
the other side Of the water as filled
cheese.

Importance at the moment, but Jessie
did not like him-why, she neither
knew nor cared. She tactfully eluded
his further attentions, and spent the
remainder of the Afternoon with his
sisters.
Three days later Arthur Morris
called at the Bishop house and found
Jessie at home. They chatted for an
hour or more. and he secured her
consent to be one of a coaching party
on the next Saturday Had it not been
for his presence, she would have en-
joyed the expedition thoroughly.
More than week had passed. From
Sam Rounds-who knew of every
thing that happened for miles about
John heard Of the party, and drank
deep of the lovers first cup of sus-
picion, bitter with the NORWOOD Of
jealousy. He decided to call on Jessie
and learn his fate. His heart leaped
when Jessie came forward to meet
him. There was tenderness in her
eyes and welcome in the clasp of the
warm little hand which nestled Tor an
instant il his.
Saddle my horse, John; let's ride!"
she. said.
Delighted, John obeyed, and set
himself stolidly to enjoy her presence
as they galloped along the beach.
"Have you an engagement for Sat
urday?" asked Jessie.
81 have none. Can / do anything?"
asked John eagerly.
81 have cousins who live near the
beach twelve miles south of here"
said Jessie. 81 want to spend a day
with them. Do you think you could
endure the company of three foolish
girls all day, John?"
Il could enjoy the company Of one
wise little girl forever said John,
with a feryor which astounded him
when the words were uttered. A
blush suffused Jessie's cheek, but her
dropping eyes expressed no rebuke. Il
shall be deligted to be your es-
cort," stammered John, far more
