Admiral "Bob" Evans, in a recent con-
versation with group of officers, threw a
great white light upon one of the methods
at least by which the Japanese have at
tanned that splendid adaptability to
European and American ways.
"When l commanded the New York
some years ago." he said, 81 had Jap
servant with whom / was especially well
pleased. He was prompt, remarkably
quick to learn, and took such deep
interest in everything that sometimes, just
to amuse myself, I devoted. not little
attention to explaining things that he
appeared not to understand. A good
waiter, too, he was. Well, finally he dis
appeared.
''Some time later, when on the Europ-
can station, made call on Jap battle
ship lying in the harbor of Versailles.
The captain met US at the gangway and
escorted us to his cabin. AS we were
seated he suddenly turned, threw off his

a tone / remembered.

THE same he said bowling. Capt

For Acquiring Hard Muscles and a

A number IL bore gun when loaded
with three drachms of powder VIII
send a load of shot further and shoot
harder than if double this amount OF
powder is used.
If too much powder is used, all of it
will not explode until it leaves the

That portion which does not explode
at the proper time interferes with the

Hard muscles and a strong body do
not depend on the quantity of food,
but on it's perfect digestion and proper
assimilation.
If the nutrient properties of all of
the food that are eaten may be appro-
priated by the blood and tissues, the
muscles of the body will grow harder
and stronger, whether you eat much or
little.
You may be well, but not strong.

Thousands of men and millions of

A little Kodol after meals will en-
able the stomach and digestive organs

all the wholesome food that may be
eaten.

Carpenter is sauve, p~reacher-like In
appearance anr exceedingly plausible.
Secret Service Officer Scheitlin con-
cludes his account of the Santa Fe
case as follows:
After a wrangle between the United
State attorneys over the proper place
to try the co~nspirators, Yankton was
finally decided on. Cameron was under
arrest aid all three hal been indicted
by the federal grand AIRY for conspir-
acy to defraud the government. Russell
was the second principal arrested. Then
Deputy Marshal Weed with another
deputy named McNichol, went to Be
lott, Iowa, to arrest Carpenter. He
was taken into custody and the three
started for Yankton. Near the line
between Iowa and Dakota Carpenter
leaped from the train while I'm motion
and escaped: but later he was retaken
and lodged in Jail at Yankton.
THE defendants. although indicted
for conspiracy, were granted separate
trials, and Russell was tried first and
convicted, afterward gaining his liber-
ty through q new trial. Carpenter
claimed to have become dangerously III
very suddenly and the case against him
dragged along until IL was allowed 10
die out. Cameron also contrived to
delay his hearing until after a change
OF political administration and thus to
wear put the case against him."
