where Lady Chartris takes possession
of Cipriano, Notwithstanding his eyes
follow every movement of the beauti-
full Marina.
A moment later Barnes asks Lady
Chartris ardently where his bride is.
"Oh, she's gone up to her chamber
to primp for going away" cries Maud,
land you haven't given me any brides
maids present, either" This last is
emphasized by very sullen pout."
"Oh, that will arrive after l return
from my honeymoon cruise" returns
the American, lightly, and runs up
the stairs to the chamber lately occu-
pied by Miss Anstruther, but finding
only Tompson in it, he asks: Where's
your mistress?"
ooh, Miss Enid beg your pardon
Mrs. Barnes has gone on board the
yacht, sir. You sent for her"
Il sent for her. What do you
mean?"
Yes, sir; a man coming up from
the landing told me to tell my mis-
tress you were waiting on board for
her"
That's very curious. Graham and
his crew are not even on board the
yacht"
Barnes dashes downstair, calls the
mate to him and asks: HAS any boat
come off from the yacht?"

up, says: Whats happened?"
In all his fears and all his agony,

looks upon the party, one mighty con-
sideration springs, that saves DANIEL

naming here indicates his innocence.
II Cipriano had aught to do with the
abduction of my wife, he'd scarcely
dare to stand unconcerned here be-
fore me-" For the counts gaze Is
carelessly not turned to him, but ling
ers admiringly upon Marina.
The easy bearing of Danella con-
tinues as Barnes briefly tells his tale.
though once or twice he raises his
thin italian eyebrows and rolls his
dark orbs in sympathy.
"Dio milo, 1t is as l feared!" ex-
claims the count sorrowfully. They
have seized ycur lovely BRIDE"
"Oh, IL they're drowning poor Enid
now!" cries Maud, with childish
morbidness.
"Oh, / do not imagine any injury
will come Immediately to the young
lady. Lately, in the vendetta, women
who do not bring about the tragedy
are spared" remarks Cipriano quite
alphabetically, though his glance
rests malevolently upon Marina till
her passionate beauty seems to soften
his austerity. But in Bocognano l
imagine they wish a visit from you,
Mr.. Barnes, to rescue your BRIDE" he
continues dryly. You see, in Corsica,
a native jury would look much more
leniently than continental one upon
the death of the vendetta. That's only
my surmise, but l am quite confident
it's the correct one"
Thank you, count" says Barnes.

he adds eagerly: "Danella, come over

1T would be most unwise!" dissents
Danella shudderingly. Have they not

duced the death of the father of the

MES the report circulated a few
days ago that despite the re-

The report was that the manufac-

enactment of the pure food laws, but
to get around the law they print the
names of the impurities of the goods
in inconspicuous places on the labels
and In small type. Mr.. Brown says

With a smooth iron and Defiance
Starch, you can launder your shirt
waist just as well at home as the
steam laundry can; 1t will have the
proper stiffness and finish, there will
be less wear and tear of the goods.
and it will be\a positive pleasure to
use Starch that does not stick to the
iron.
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1908-01-23

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of it's great
sr strength than other makes.

Inspect State Herds.

State Veterinarian Paul o. Koto
and his assistants will begin next
week to test the cattle and hogs own
ed by the state and kept at the state
institution, for tuberculosis, for the
purpose of Graduating the disease so
far as those herds are concerned by
killing the affected stock, if any ap-
pears.
Recently tests were made of the
dairy herd at the agricultural college
at Ames. and surprisingly large
amount of tuberculosis was found
there. A number of the animals had
to be killed 1t is the intention of
DR.. Koto to continue the investigation
among all the herds so that the state
itself will have set an example that 1t
expects the private owners of stock
to follow.
The state veterinarian and his as.
sistants are constantly busy examin.
ing herds of cattle owned by individ-
uals through the state. and they have
eradicated the disease from many of
them. But there are many owners
who bitterly object to the killing of
their stock without recompense An
effort is being made by the depart
ment to induce better feeling in re-
gard to the matter among the owners
OF stock. AS the first step the state
herds will be divorced from the dis
case.
