Ellis, state purchasing agent of the Farmers Union called those present to order and stated the object of the school.

Farewell 10 inc Corset.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, July b. Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt has essayed the role of the reformer. It is not the railroads, the cor poratiOns nor the nature fakirs that have fallen under the ban of the first lady of the land. Ac- cording to an intimate friend, the Presidents wife has decided to discard her corsetS. All of the feminine instruments of torture in her wardrobe will be thrown into the garbage heap and she will hereafter wage unceaSing warfare against them. If Mrs. Roosevelt is successful in her crusade, the corset will be re legated to the libo of antiquity, along with the hoop skirt and the bustle As a result, the wasp like waist bids fair to go out of fashion, and the Venus form, long admired but seldom emulated, is to have it's inning.
 Mrs. Roosevelt's action as d satorial reformer is not without precedent. When Mrs. Cleveland was Americas first lady, she placed an eternal taboo on the hustle and put the ban of official displeasure on that hideous in strument of deformity. At that

Larry, but at that moment Bates ran
toward us calling loudly.
They're coming across the lake,
SIR" he reported, and instantly the
sheriff's head disappeared, and as We
ran toward the house we heard his
horse pounding down the road toward
St. Agathas.

tend to come in here by the front door
as matter of law" said Larry. Pick
erings merely using the sheriff to give
responsibility to his maneuvers.'
1t was no time for a discussion OF
motives. We ran across the meadow
past the water tower and down to the
boat-house. Far out on the lake we
saw half dozen men approaching the
Glenarm grounds. They advanced d
steadily over the light snow that lay
upon the ice. one man slightly in ad-
vance and evidently the leader.
Its Morgan" exclaimed Bates.
And there's Ferguson"
Larry chuckled and slapped his
thigh.
"Observe that stocky little devil Just
behind the leader. He's my friend
from Scotland Yard. Lads! this is
really an international affair."
Bates, go back to the house and
call at any sign Of attack" I ordered.

"And Pickering is directing his
forces from afar," remarked Stoddard.

were now quite near, and there was no
mistaking their intentions. Most of
them carried guns. the others re-
volvers and long ice hooks.

hands for a truce, I'VE wish you no
harm, but If you enter these grounds
you do SO at your peril"
They had paused at word from
Morgan and listened sullenly.
