it up on a table, dropped into a seat

curious silence fell upon the watchers

sharply, and the squint blue eyes

The Thinking Machine clambered out
and went round to the back, where he
spoke to the chauffeur, who was busy
at the tank. The chauffeur nodded as
if he understood, and followed the
scientist to his seat.
Now for Millen," directed the
scientist quietly.
"Millen!" Fairbanks repeated mean
inglessly.
The chauffeur twisted his wheel.
backed a little, caught the forward
clutch, whirled his car straight to the
road again, and shot out through the
darkness. For two or three minutes
there was utter silence, save for the
chug and whir of the engine and the
clanking rattle of the car; then The
Thinking Machine spoke over his Shout

Did either of you notice anything
peculiar?" he inquired.

Mr.. Hatch, you have that automo-

without needing the question. Take
this electric light and examine it once
more, to satisfy us that there is no
road between the little store and
Millen."
Il know there isn't" Hatch told
him.
DO as l say!" directed the other
crabbedlv. I'VE can't afford to make
mistakes"
Obediently enough Hatch and Dr.
Pollock studied the map. There was

one-two roads, here where there were
not two roads! Hatch glared at them

az A Whittier service was given at the

with the principal address by DR.. E.
F. Bartholomew " The address was
preceded by a song service at which
the hymns and songs written by Whit

gave a reading from Whittier. DIR.

helpful address on ''Whittiers Message

pressed was his reverential respect for

the poor and oppressed of all classes
DOM" His reverence for man was
beautifully expressed in the words, "a
man is more precious than the Colds of
Ophir" He reverenced human nature
for the sake of Him who bore it and
for it's own sake. His faith in God
and life was not learned from books,
but was inwrought by human expert
ence. DR.. Bartholomew spoke of his
noble optimism with which he looked
for the best in things and believed that
everything was for the best. Whit

Peace and Good VIII.
Whittiers faith in God and the life
beyond is marked in many of his
poems. He had realizing sense of
Immortality and lived IN the life be-

not as those who have no hope, but
for him "The stars shone through his
cypress trees" he goes with us into
the valley of the shadow. His dying

faith of our Quaker poet said DR.
Bartholomew, who by his immortal
contributions to the treasures of oul
literature as Illuminated regardless Of

HERPICIDE'S MISSION.
1t Takes Away the Dread of Birth.
DAYS.

Nothing is more annoying to men
and women of middle age than to see
those mmistakable signs of age-thin
hair and grayness-approaching. But
science has discovered that these con-
dftions are no longer 'unmistakable"
evidences of old age, for the dandruff
germ theory proves that even very
young people may suffer hair loss,
while those fortunate enough to escape
the ravages of the scalp germ retain
their abundant locks to ripe old age.
Newbros Herpiciue kills the dandruff
germ and removes the risk of appear
ing old before your time. Save your
hair and your feelings by using the
genuine Herpicide. Sold by leading

Was First Night Performance.-A
first night performance was the offer
ing laid before an unsuspecting public
at the Illinois last night 1.-The Yankee
Doodle Boy with Bud Hicks in the
stellar role, had never been staged be-
fore, but the audience did not know
it and the. majority sat through the
piece under the impression that the
bungles were the result of incompe-
tence and the wear and tear of the
road. Hicks himself is good and
knows the. part. So do one or two
others and there are several fair
voices. The scenery is all new and
pretty. But the leading lady is lame
and there are other defects. The play
itself furnishes opportunity for strong
emotional acting and with good people
in the cast the attraction ought to
make a hit.
