TEN GOOD REASONS.
Read Them and Patronize tho Mer
chants Of This Town.

Here are ten good reasons for trad
ing with your home business people,
as given by an exchange.
Because: You examine your pur-
chase and are assured OF satisfaction
before investing your money.
Because: Your home merchant is
always ready and willing to make
right any error or any defective arti-
Gle purchased of him.
Because: When you are sick or for
any reason it is necessary for you to
ask for credit. you can go to the local
merchant. Could you ask it of a mail
order house?
Because II merchant is willing
to extend you credit you should give
him the benefit of your cash trade.
Because: Your home merchant pays
local taxes and exerts every effort to
build and better your market, thus In
creasing both the value OF city and
country property.
Because: The mail order merchant
does not tighten your taxes or in any
way hold the value of your property.
Because: The mail order merchant
does nothing for the benefit of mar
kets or real estate values.
Because: If your town is good
enough to live in 1t is good enough to
spend money in.-Gov. Folk OF Mis-
souri,.
Because: The best citizens in your
community patronize home industry.
Why not be one of the best citizens?
Because: II you give your home
merchant an opportunity to compete.

quantities you buy out OF town. he will

get some of the things back to US to-

Mrs. Bruce was quite willing to do
us this favor. and MacArdel told her
to call for the things at six that
evening. explaining that we would
not return to the house until that
hour.
AS we left the cottage and wan
dered on down the hill, MacArdel
said

A moment later he muttered as If to
himself: We'll get the story out
of her, though, or I'll miss my guess"
beyond which sage remark he became
absolutely uncommunicative on the
entire subject.

claimed, in amazement What on

Search for Old Cannon.

A tradition still survives in Luzerne
county. Pa, that when Gen. John
Sullivan marched through that region
in 1879 on his expedition against the
Indian confederacy of central New
York, he buried some superfuous
brass cannon along the Wilkes-Barre
mountain. To search for these revolu-
tlonary relics a number Of the best
known citizens Of Ashley have formed
themselves into an historical society.
One recent Sunday the members
secured the mountain in the vicinity
Of Laurel Run, but could f1d NO relics
except few Indian arrow points.

while there's any hocus-pocus going

We were on our way back from the
railway station, and, coming to the
brow of the hill, we could look down
across the valley and see the grim
gray walls of the Carney mansion
through the occasional openings in the
foliage as it waved in the gentle morn
ing breeze. To one side, and less than
mile away. was the Widow Bruce's
cottage, and | pointed it out again to
MacArdel.

We tramped across the fields and

soiling our boots, tearing our clothing,
and decorating ourselves with a gen.

which chung to our garments with 4

A sharp knock at the cottage door

The widow bobbed up and down like
a duck in puddle and invited us into
the house with great show of cvre-
mony.
No, thank you" said MacArdel.
I'VE won't come in. We've just been
taking a morning stroll over the hills
and we stopped to ask IL you could do
some washing for us. You know we've

That's where the whole trouble

got good house and farm on the
estate, and, just as they are about to
settle down for better or for worse,
you come along with a scheme to
GUST her, bag and baggage, and turn
her place into golf links"
What of it," / replied. I'VE are
going to provide for her elsewhere
and she will be better off than she
Is now"
You know that, but she doesn't"
continued MacArdel, land there may
be other reasons why she does not
want to move. This seems to be Il

parently no one about her is espe-

open" said. Practically all the serv-
most nothing is purchased in the vii
lage, so the natives don't derive any
material benefit from the place"
But they may when it's closed up"
MacArdel insisted. There's fruit and
nuts and game and grass and timber
and other things that can be picked UP
and never missed from one years end
to another when the house is unoccu-
pied and no Waterman or caretaker is
about. l tell you, Ware, these people
don't want the Carneys to come back
and they are playing this ghost game
for all there is in it to brighten them
away"
They'll have fine time doing it,"
said Miss Carney isn't afraid of
anything under the sun. and even if
she returns before we are sble to
make out case against them, she'll
stay here and fight it out to the
last"

CHAPTER XII.
The Ghosts Captured.

Replacing the parcel under the
blankets in as nearly as possible the
same condition and position as when
we found it, we drove rapidly back to
Hoskins' stable and were successful
in safely housing the horse and wag-
on before jerks put in his appear
ance.
Now" said MacArdel "all we have
to do Is to tip off that man at the sta
ton, and we can keep jerks in the
dark until we are ready to bring him
up with round turn
We walked the short half mile to
in bribing the fellow to silence con-
corning the trunk, laying stress on
the alleged joke that we purposed
practicing on the driver of the lex
press
You see," said MacArdel, as we
strolled leisurely along the grassy
roadside "the whole business is plain
enough now. This Bruce woman start
ed ghost story when she first came
here purely in a spirit of idle gable
and to impress the wondering natives

her boy was killed, she tried to make
trouble by again circulating these
yarns and frightening the men off the
place"

more she wants or what she hopes to

as much in the dark as l was at

Now, then, Hoskins," continued
MacArdel, looking at his watch and
speaking rapidly. Don't let jerks hear
a word about this business. He don't
know that had a trunk at the station,
and If We can get back here before

We drove as rapidly as the tired
beast could carry us, until we reached
the gate leading into the stable
grounds. when MacArdel pulled up
suddenly and said:
Lets dump the trunk in here. We
can carry it up to the house after we
get this horse and wagon back where
they belong. No one will touch it
here"
AS soon as the trunk was on the
ground by the side of the roadway,
MacArdel dragged out the parcel from
under the blankets and. opening it on
the grass, began to examine the pieces
infinitely.
After moment he Strengthened up
and exclaimed:
It's just as thought. It's the same
stuff that we found last night, and
