AROUND the GLOBE
FOR A WIFE.
fOrlglnal1

toriginall
lie Roy Remington was a young
globe trotter. hs had SO idea that he
was going to and fro on the earth
hunting for something, but he was.
All men from the time they are old
enough to marry are hunting for
wives, and all women from a similar
period OF their lives are hunting for
husbands. Tell most of them this, and
they will either laugh or get angry at
you. Nevertheless the statement is
true. Nature often fools us, but she
never relaxes the enforcement of her
laws.
AS ! was saying, lie Roy Remington
was crossing continents and oceans.
as he thought, to get rid of being
bored. Had he been obliged to work
for living he would not have been
bored so much. Had he been married
he would not have been bored at all.
He might have suffered under many
irritations and annoyances, he might
even have wished for a return of the
freedom Of bachelorhood, but be would
not have been bored. Boredom does
not usually belong to the married
state.
One day Remington was crossing
''the plains" of America somewhere
between Omaha and San Francisco
when the train stopped. The weather
was warm, and the windows were
open. A train from the opposite direc-
tion came rolling along with diminish
ing speed. 1t brought the girl Reming-
ton was looking for and stopped with
her directly beside his window. Her
window, too, was raised and the two
sat face to face within few feet of
each other. Remington looked at the
girl, and the girl looked at Reming-
ton. He made the most of the brief
time allotted him. The girl lowered
her eyes. Then there was toot-toot
ahead, and Remington's train moved
onward.
Remington was looking for this very
girl, but he didn't know it till he was
on the Pacific ocean midway between
San Francisco and Hongkong.
BY the time he stood again on dry
land be had made up his mind that he
must fad the girl on the other side Of
the globe.
He went to Paris and from Paris
started for London. On a railway train
some twenty miles west Of Paris, while
stopping at station. a train pulled
past, and at a window in this train
was the girl he had discovered he
wanted.
1t took Remington just thirty sec
onds to gather up his belongings and
leave the train. During this brief in
tcryal it had occurred to him that the
girl might be going around the world
and he had better proceed westward
In the hope of meeting her once more
and at standstilI. But he dismissed
the idea as ridiculous.
The train that had passed was bound
for Paris, and Remington took the next
one for the same place. His trunk

! Ing for that. He could buy trunks and
! their contents, but he couldn't buy the
4 girl who was going to Paris. though he
could buy any one Of dozens Of other
girls. She was surely going TO Paris.
All Americans who are approaching
Paris are going there. Aud ten to one
she would stay awhile there. So Rem
ington returned to Paris and when he
got there hunted through the registers
Of the hotels where Americans were
accustomed to stay At the Hotel
Meuriee he found the names Mr..
and Mrs Edgar D. Avery, San Fran
cisco, Cal, U. s. A., aud Miss Edith
Avery" The clerk told him that they
mad arrived at time that correspoDded
with the arrival Of the train on which
he had seen the girl he was hunting,
While he was racking bis brains how
to secure an introduction he CHANGED
to meet bis intimate friend Phllpot.
He asked Philpot to dine with him the
same evening. intending to talk the
matter over with him. No; Philpot's
friends. the Averys Of San Francisco,
had just arrived and he was engaged
to drive with them. What luckl
Would Philpot introduce him? Ger
tainly! He would make an engage
ment to take him to call They parted.
and the next morning phllpot told
Ilagf Ia hmI 1a he
gagement for five days ahead, the first
evening the Ayerys were disengaged.
Remington passed five weary, waiting
days and on the afternoon of the fifth
received note from Philpot to say
that the Averys had left Paris unex.
pectedly the day before.
Remington was crushed. He found
Philpot, only to learn that the Averys
had gone eastward to Hongkong to
sail for San Francisco Immediately on
arrival at that port. Remington In
quired the date of sailing of the steam
er they would likely take and found
he would not have time to reach 1t
himself He could go westward and
reach San Francisco earlier than the
party going eastward
He left Paris that night for South
ampton, caught an outgoing steamer
and reached New York in six days.
In two weeks from his leaving France
he was In San Francisco waiting the
arrival Of the girl he was chasing
Whenever a steamer arrived from the
east he was at the dock watching. At
last he saw Miss Avery coming down
a gangplank That was enough for
the present. He waited for a reason
able time for the family to get settled,
then called.
Six months later Remington and his
bride were travelling from San Fran
cisco to New York on their wedding
trip At a station on the road the train
stopped, and Remington for the first
time informed Mrs. Edith Avery Rem.
ington Of how he had met the woman
he had wanted for his wife at that
very station and had chased her
around the globe.

Germs Cannot Hurt Sound Body

When you are in good health, and the
world looks bright, it is because the
white eorpuscles, well supplied with am
munition, are fighting your fight for you
all over the body. 1t is when your OPP
sonins are deficient, and your soldiers
are lighting losing battle from head to
foot, that the aches come and life seems
fiat and Improbable. Your ills are only
the after effects. 10 be logical, you
should greet your friend with, How
are your opsoninsT
This, then is the welcome message
that recent discoveries have brought us
from the field OF battle that germs are
powerless to affect a healthy body in
which the vital resistance is maintained
by good habits Of living. Alcohol, to-
bacco, and other such drugs, whether
narcotic or stimuative in their effects,
are aids and comforts to our invisible
enemies Too much food especially
hearty food such as meat and beans,
forms supplies for the eommissary de-
partment Of the enemy, instead of for
the brigades OF white corpuscles.
On the other hand, every breath, drawn
deeply into the lungs, OF fresh, sun
warmed air, is direct blow struck at
our foes and on the side OF our defend
ers; every sip of pure water aids the
forces of life. So, too, does every mo-
tor in walking, running, and other ex-
ereises-when exercise is not excessive.

DEDICATION AT G..
Monument To Memory of Squire A.
Hale Yesterday.

Greensboro, june 26.-~A monument Il
the memory Of Squire Ashbel Hale, a
descendant of the famous English Judge
Sir. Matthew Hale was dedicated yes
terday.
Mr.. Hale was formerly one Of the
teachers in the Sunday school, which
was organized here 100 years ago aud
which was the foundation Of the sun
day school movement in Vermont.
The monument was erected through
the efforts Of Rev. p. D. Fiske, now Of
Plainfield. A feature of the dedication
today was the singing of the hymn
which Mrs. Franklin Blake Of Lawrence,
Kan, then years old, sang at the ex.
hibition held in Squire Hale's barn in
1917 for the benefit Of the Sunday school.
In 1892 the barn was pulled down and
part OF the hardwood frame used on the
pulpit of the Greensboro church, the
stairway Of the new parsonage and va
rious boxes Rev. Mr.. Fiske told the
story of the barn before the Vermont
Sunday School association, presented a
gavel made from the wood Of the barn
and introduced Mrs. Blake then "a years
old, who sang the same hymn that soc
sang as a child in 1917. From the wood
OF the barn Mr., Fisk had 40 cane sticks
made, which he sold at 81 apiece. BY
this means and by telling the story at
various cnurch gatherings, bit by bit,
the money has been raised
The exercises OF dedication consisted
Of historical sketches, singing Of the
hymn sung in 1917, dedicatory prayer
and dedication, an address by Il. Nj.
Fuller, state Sunday school superintend-
ent, and an address by +. w. Baldwin,
president of the Orleans county histori-
cal society.

Washington, d. T., June 27.---Wdth
but a few days remaining until the tis-
cal ends Treasury Department officials
are able to calculate closely the con.
dition Of the revenues June 80. The de.
felt is expected to exceed sixty-tiye mill
lions and may reach seventy. Assistant
secretary Reynolds, in charge of the
customs division, estimated today that
the customs receipts would be about
S25s,000,000, or the third highest in the
comtry's history. Last fiscal year they
reached the unprecedented figure OF
333,O0O,0O0 and the year preceding that
s300,000,0O0. The falling off is ascribed
to business conditions and expectation
Of tariff revision, which always causes
decline in imports. No marked increase
Of customs returns is looked for until
after the tariff is revised
international revenue receipts are to-
day about s2O,0O0,00O below those for
the corresponding period last fiscal year.
The total receipts from this source will
be about S250,0O0000 by June 30. The
decline in internal revenue receipts il
ascribed to business conditions in past
months. The spread of prohibition
might be thought to have had large
influence, but the remarkable fact shown
by internal revenue returns is that the
more saloon licenses have been taken
out this fiscal year than last by over
100, indicating that consumption OF H.
quor in the country as whole is in.
