SMUGGLING BY AUTOMOBILE.

Automobiles are being used to SNUG
gle goods across the frontiers of Eu-
rope The trick is becoming more
common as the popularity of the mo-
tor cars increases on the continent.
The adaptability Of the motor car to
the purposes of the land smuggler has
tempted many to run gauntlet" with
all kinds of dutiable goods, and now
that few cases have come to light
the customs officials are devoting I'M
usual attention to those folks who
show a preference for travelling in
their cars under cover of darkness.
On the French frontier recently sus-
picions were aroused by the frequent
night excursions over the Berlin side
by a particular motor car. An am
buscade was laid. and as challenge
only resulted in the speed Of the car
being increased, obstacles were placed
in it's way. The occupants Of the car
decamped. and when the vehicle was
searched SITS worth of Moravian to-
bacc0 was seized. Both the car and
it's contents were confiscated.-Brook-
lynn Eagle.

SIMPLE WALL DECORATIONS.
New Material and New Ideas for the
Decoration of Homes.

The styles of home decorations have
completely changed in the last few
years, and it is pleasant to say that
they have changed for the better.
Time was when we hung monstrous
patterns printed on paper against our
walls. and considered them more or
less pleasantly. 1t would hardly be fair
to say that we considered them beau
tiful or artistic. But they were the
vogue and were put on. The time
has come when, with our better meth
DDS for interior decoration, better Ell
fects can be secured.
In wall coverings, whether they be
of paint, or of kalsOmlne, or of Ala
bastine-whateve the material used
to cover the wall-the thing desired is
that which has the greatest covering
power, as well as permanency and
beauty Of color. Alabastine, wall
covering ground from Alabaster rock
which means hard white rocks
the ideal covering for wall.
The most beautiful wall decorations
in the world are those which are laid
on with the brush. The mural designs
in our large public buildings, and the
frescoed designs in the large cathe-
nency and an art Of which wall paper
is but a cheap imitation. These mural
schemes and frescoed designs can be
brought within the reach Of the every
day home. They can be done with
Alabastine, which is permanent in it's
coloring. 1t does not rub off, and it
has the soft effect of pastelle.
A great many people defer the re-
decorating of their rooms not only
because Of the expense but because
of the discomfort of it. With Alabas
tine there need be no discomfort and
there can be no muss, for all that IS
needed is to lay sheet or canvas on
the floor, have your man come in with
a pail, make the solution and simply
brush it on the wall. That is all there
is to it, and the room is perfectly
clean and thoroughly renovated.

WORTH Remembering.

There are three entirely different
kinds of ingredients used in making
the three different varieties of baking
powders on the market, viz:-1) Min
eral-Acid or Alum. (2) Bone-Acid or
Phosphate, and CD Cream Of Tartar
made from grapes. It is important.
from the standpoint Of health, to
know something about these ingredi-
ents, and which kind is used in your
baking powder.
Cd MineralAcid, or Alum, is made
from g kind of clay. This is mixed
with diluted oil of vitriol and from
this solution a product is obtained
which is alum. Alum is cheap; costs
about two cents a pound, and baking
powder made with this MineralAcid
sells from 10 to 25c. a pound.
(2) Bone-Acid, or Phosphate, Is the
basis Of phosphate baking powders
and the process is fully described In
the patents issued to large manufac-
turer of phosphate powder. The u.
S. Patent Office Report gives full
and exact description, but the follow
ing extract is enough:
Burned bones, after being ground,
are put into freshly diluted oil Of Wit
riol and with continual stirring and
in the following proportion" etc.
From this Bone-Acid phosphate bak-
ing powders are made; such powders
sell from 20 to 80 cents a pound.
CD Cream Of Tartar exists in all
ripe grapes, and flows with the juice
from the press in the manufacture Of
wine. After the wine is drawn off the
tartar is scraped from the cask, boil
ed with water, and crystals of Cream
Of Tartar, white and very pure, sepa-
rate and are collected. It differs in
no respect from the form in which it
originally existed in the grape. Cream
of Tartar, then, while the most expen-
sive, is the only ingredient that
should be used in baking powder to
act upon the soda, as its wholesome
ness is beyond question. Cream of
Tartar baking powders sell at about
40 to so cents pound.
Such are the facts, and every one,
careful of the health of the family,
should remember this rule:-Baking
powders selling from 10 to 25 cents a
pound are made Of Mineral-Acids;
those selling from 20 to 80 cents Of
Bone-Acid; and those from 40 to so
cents of Cream Of Tartar made from
grapes.

faculty of moving without noise.
The sentry stirred I'M his sleep

Ned Padgett suddenly started ul. with

cision and force, struck him on the
shoulder. Down he went under the
blow, dropping the rifle at Pauls feet.

GREAT CHANGE.
From Chance In Food.


The brain depends much more on
the stomach than we are apt to sup
pose until we take thought in the mat
ter. Feed the stomach on proper food
easy to digest and containing the
proper amount of phosphates and the
healthy brain will respond to all de-
mands. A notable housewife IN But'
falo writes:
"The doctor diagnosed my trouble
as a nervous affection of the stom'
ach.' was actually so nervous that
I could not sit still for five minutes
to read the newspaper, and to attend
to my household duties was simply
impossible. I doctored ell the time
with remedies. but medicine did no
good.
envy physician put me on all sorts
of diet, and tried many kinds oil
cereal foods, but none Of them agreed
with me. was almost discouraged,
and when I tried Grape-Nuts ! did so
with many misgivings--I had no faith
that it would succeed where every
thing else had failed.
"But it did succeed, and you don't
know how glad am that tried it.
I feel like new person, / have gain
cd in weight and / don't have that
terrible burning sensation in my stom'
ach any more. I feel so strong
again that I am surprised at myself.
The street noises that used to irritate
me so, I never notice now, and my
mind is so clear that my household
duties are a real pleasure"
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich.
There's a reason.
Now why was this great change
made in this woman?
The stomach and the brain had not
been supplied with the right kind OF
food to rebuild and strengthen the
nerve centers in these organs. It is
absolute folly to try to do this with
medicine. There is but one sure way
and that is to quit the old food that
has failed and take on Grape-Nuts
food which is more than half digested
in the process of manufacture and Is
rich in the phosphate Of potash con.
tanned in the natural grain, which
unites with albumen and water-the
only three substances that will make
up the soft gray filing in the thou
sands of delicate nerve centers In the
brain and body. Grape-Nuts food is
sure road back to health In all such
cases.

His Journey In Vain.

The two brothers had been apart for
years, but now Jack had returned form
the west, and he lit cigar and eyed
his brother sheepishly.
"You know I always was quixotic
sort of chap" he said, tentatively;
"but can you guess why came home
t&is year?
'Well, old chap, we're all glad
enough to see you; but I can't say
know your reason for coming home"
The other drew a photograph from
his pocket.
"You remember you sent me this
group about five years ago?'
"Well, said the brother, what aboce
it,"
"This. You see this girl in the front
row? Well, as soon as saw her photo
I fell in love with her. Man, she's per-
feet! Her face has been before me in
all my wanderings, and I determined
that I would make a fortune and then
come home and lay at her feet. Yes,
I know it was an odd fancy to take,
but I'm like that; and now that I've
made the money I've come to you to
know who she is and where can find
her"
"My dear old fellow" said Fred,
kindly. don't take it to heart but"
"She's married."

Discretion.

Pat had been in the service OF a
militia officer for a number Of years,
and was on terms of such intimacy
with the soldier that he dared to be
witty at his masters expense.
The officer one day was discussing
the possibility of war with his coach
man, and after casting some rehec-
tons upon the courage Of his retainer
he asked:
"Pat. what would you do In case a
war did break out?"
Pat thought moment. "Sure," he
said, "Oi think OfG shtay at home wild

CHAPTER X1.
The Dog, Courier.

Paul Miller drew his rifle to his
shoulder and let drive two or three
shots in quick succession, sending
their late captors flying heller SHELTER
to the rear of the cavern. Whether
any of them were wounded by his
bullets or not he did not stop to
learn. He then seized the rifles,
blankets and caps and the two men
fastened AWAY from the cavern, TAX
ing the precaution to secure not only
the rifles, but three pistols and all the
belts of cartridges they could find.
Both of them had filled their capa-
cious pockets with dried moose meat
until they stuck out like stuffed tur-
keys.
They broke two of the rifles because
they could not carry them and
strapped the others on their backs.
Long they travelled in a western di-
rection, guided by the stars. They
had given up all hope of finding their
MetIakahlan friends who no doubt
supposing them lost, had returned to
their home on the island. After wan
1ering three or four hours into the
forest and being completely ex-
hausted, the two fugitives rolled
themselves in their blankets and
slept. They dared not build a fire,
for it might attract the attention of
their pursuers.
When day dawned they made a
breakfast on some of the dried moose
they had brought with them and pre-
pared to resume their Journey. They
discovered that they were gradually
ascending a mountain side. On all
sides of them were forests of scraggy
spruce, the trees seldom being over
five or six inches in diameter, and
ferns and other forms Of plant life
were occasionally noted.
At last they came to great cleft
between gigantic snow-robed noun
tains.
The first night after they began
their ascent they camped on the
mountain side near spring and
spread their blankets under the lee of
a large bowlder.
Hope had been revived in the breast
of Paul Miller, but his companion, who
had been deceived and cheated so
often by outrageous fortune, evinced
little or none of his spirits.
eve are long way from cfviliza-
ton yet" he said to one Of Pauls
remarks about their being safe. $50
often, my friend, have had my hopes
raised only to be bighted that I al
low myself to believe nothing good
can come to me. A terrible fate
seems to have taken possession of my
being-I seem doomed" The old gray
head was bent on his hands, and he
was silent, while darkness came over
the scene.
The next days travel over this un'
known region was but repetition OF
the experiences of the day before.
Higher they climbed, up, up and up,
approaching on the mountain side the
line of eternal snow. A few hundred
yards more of climbing brought them
to the summit of the divide, where
there was a pile of stones which
seemed to have been placed there by
human hands. No life of any kind
| was visible, unless that white speck
on the distant ledge be a dog or a
goat.

BIBLICAL TALE OF POWER.
"Jezebel," by Miss Lafayette Nc
Laws, Has Won Favor.

Jezebel," by Miss Lafayette Nc
Laws, Has Won Favor.
Miss Lafayette McLaw's when
the Land Was Young" instantly
sprang into popular favor, and for
a first book was a pronounced sue
cess. The promise in her first book
has been more than realized in "Jez-
ebel," a work of singular power and
insight. 1t is a Biblical tale of the
days when Omri and Ahab were
kings of Israel and Elijah was a
prophet of Jehovah. Ahab, the Is
raelite, takes to wife Jezebel, the
worshiper of Baal. When Ahab
comes to the throne and Jezebel sets
up the worship of Baal, the prophets
and believers of Israel are incensed
against the queen, and Jezebel be-
gins fierce persecution of her enc
mics. This contest is the chief mo-
tive of the story.
Miss McLaws has endeavored to
throw new light upon the character
of Jezebel, and, while she does not
depart from the Biblical account, she
surely presents this strong-willed,
beautiful queen in somewhat novel
and striking manner. We get
glimpses of Jezebel the woman as
well. as Jezebel the queen, and it is
as a woman with warm passions and
jealous instincts that Jezebel is
most and best portrayed.
The book is replete with dramatic
situations, the action is rapid and
stirring, and the denoument is orig
inal and startling. Altogether it is
one of the books of the day and a
distinct contribution to the novel
literature of Biblical days.

TICKETS GOING FAST
Edward Howard Griggs' Lectures Will
Attract Crowds.

Notwithstanding the counter attrac-
vival services which are being held all
over the city, the desire to see and
hear Edward Howard Griggs, the noted
lecturer, is very strong, as evidenced
by the demand for both single and
course tickets. The first in the series
of lectures entitled "Moral Leaders
from Socrates to Tolstoi,'' which Mr..
Griggs is to give at the First Baptist
church every Monday evening. COM
mencing next Monday at 8:l5, is one
Of the most interesting in the entire
list, and deals with the great philoso-
pher, Socrates.
Mr.. Griggs' lectures have been very
largely attended in other cities. He has
the rare faculty of,,so dressing up alb
struse subjects and ethical topics that
they become living, breathing things,
eagerly listened to, and full of inspira-
tional help. The lectures are also
deeply practical and helpful. BY them,
the listener is enabled to make the same
application of inductive methods in the
study of human experience that is made
in all the natural sciences to the study
Of the physical world.

EDISoN'S FIGHT FOR LAMP

I happened to be chatting with
Thomas A. Edison in his laboratory at
Orange, N. j.. one night while he was
working on his most recent creation,
the intensified dynamo, and heard him
discuss thoroughly the injustice that is
done inventors in the United States,
'This very day, he said, several Of
come the property Of posterity, which
means Tom, Dick and Harry. The gov
eminent processes to protect the invent
or for seventeen years, and after that
time his creation is no longer his own.
But, as a matter Of fact, the government
does no such thing. It let's any poacher
run in and bring suit, or apply for an
injunction, disputing the inventor g pat
ent already granted by the patent Of
flee, and in all the courts, pending the
long-drawn-out litigation which follows,
manufacturing and selling the thing he
claims to have invented before the real
inventor made it.
"Do, you see that little lamp therea''
asked Mr. Edison as he arose, full
length, in his ragged old linen buster of
the workshop, and he pointed with his
pencil to an ordinary incandescent cleo
trio light beaming, brightly over a
draftsman's table. 1T was my inven-
t1On, known as a primary invention,
because I took two things, a piece Of
metal and electricity, and made third
| thing out of them-light. Now, I
| fought fourteen years in the courts for
that little lamp, because a Frenchman
bobbed up and claimed it after 1 had
secured the patent. During all this liti-
cation. I had no protection whatever,
and when I won my rights, after four
teen years, there were but three years
| Of the allotted seventeen left for my
patent to live. It has now become the
property Of anybody and everybody.
There is no protection given an inventor
by the courts or the patent depart
ment.''
