CHAPTER XIII.
The First Cloud.

Ends first sensation on waking at
Bromley Manor was one of distinct
pleasure; the evening before had been
one of the very incest she had ever
spent in Dorothy's society, and she re-
joiced at the delight she saw dawn
on Lord Derriman's face as he real
lied at last he was at home with his
wife beside him.
Dorothy was in her riding habit,
waiting for her husband, on the col
onnade that ran in front of the
manor, as Enid came down. She was
humming to herself, and beating time
with her daintily booted foot.
Enid explained briefly where she
was going, and Dorothy's eyes grew
vexed and restless for moment,
while shade fell over the brilliancy
of her face. 1t almost seemed as
though she hated to hear Knebwell
Hall mentioned.

asked, as she was moving away.

Enid could not help the exclama-
ton of surprise and depreciation that
escaped her lips.

so? Such a lovely house, and those
magnificent groundslp

With it vegetables or meat can be

which is turned by means of handle,

smaller than when turned the other

The public is it's own censor, asserts
the indianapolis Star, and can be de-
pended on to be SO, for in the long
run it gives its approval only to the
best drama. The tendency, as shown
by the continued success of clean
plays and the increasing number of
such plays, is, therefore, decidedly
toward the uplift rather than the de-
moralization of the stage.

A "sLoW JOHN"
BY Eliot Rays Stone.

The inhabitants of the Southern
mountains sometimes grind their corn
with an automatic miller known as
the "Slow John"
This contrivance is very simple and
crude in form and workmanship, but
taking things slowly and easily and
working steadily, it turns out from
one to three bushels of meal day.
There are two varieties, the more
common one being constructed as fol-
lows:
A trough is fastened to one end of
a stout stick, and perpendicular
beam to the other. The stick is sup
ported in such way as to make the
beam end remain down of its own
weight. But when water is run into
the trough end the weight of the
water and trough combined makes
that end heavier than the beam or
hammer, which is then lifted high
The Morris County chronicle. [volume] (Morristown, N.J.) 1877-1915, 1909-07-20

from the mortar in which it rests,
and which contains the corn. AS
the trough descends, the water runs
out, and then the weight of the ham
mer again brings it down into the
mortar with great violence. This is
repeated day and night until the corn
is ground, when the meal is taken out
and fresh corn put in its place. An
other variety of SLOW John" is OPP
Grated by a water-wheel.
1t can readily be seen that such an
automatic mill and miller is of great
value to community where every
man is needed in the field. It's cost
is practically nothing. After the few
hours or days spent in it's construc-
ton, no attention need be paid to it
beyond giving it something to do.

Nature has bestowed upon the TO-
900 square miles of Missouri rich and
varied gifts, and they Will not dimin-
ish if they are handled on the right
economic system, boasts the st. Louis
Globe-Democrat On the other hand,
they will certainly be destroyed if
not protected by forethought and
wise methods. When forests are
slashed off wastefully, something
more than timber is wiped out.
Floods are increased and the climate
itself is affected. A farmer whose
soil washes away loses his working
basis. Every desert place in the
paths of civilization tells its story of
wanton waste of the forests. The
mischief may be quickly done. Only
ten years ago the wooded area in
Missouri was estimated at 41,000
square miles, or sixty per cent. Now
the forest area is stated to be 81 900
square miles, or thirty-nine per cent.
The lumber production in Missouri
during the last decade has averaged
at least SOC, 100000 feet year. At
this rate comparatively little would
be left in another ten years. There
after the States lumber output
would cease to be reckoned in a large
way. Yet, properly conserved. it
would last forever.

UNIFORMS NOT ORDERED WORN
President Taft May Not So Direct,
Is Hope Entertained,

If President Taft contemplates a re-
vival of the order requiring officers of the
army, navy and Marine Corps on duty in
the various departments in this city to
wear their uniforms while on such duty
he has so far failed to acquaint either
the Secretary of War or the Secretary of
the Navy with his wishes in that respect.
Because of the total absence of official
information on the subject the officers on
duty in the War and Navy departments
are inclined to discredt the published re-
port.
Nearly all the older officers of the mill
tary service are opposed to wearing their
uniforms except purely military occa-
sions. 1T is said, however. that the young
er officers, who are naturally more fond
of display, favor revival of the old Or
der of things.

so impressed with German military Gus

issue an order requiring all active officers
of the United States Army in this vicin-
ity regardless of the character of their
duty, to wear their uniforms ..
The practice prevailed for several
months. Then, in response to the general
sentiment of the officers concerned. Mr..
Taft then at the head of the War De-
partment, rescinded the order.
Because OF his position at that time 1t

DECLARES WAR ON CATS.
Southeast Audubon Society Takes
Steps to Protect Birds.

Cats that hunt and destroy song birds
and birds of pretty plumage in the
suburban places about Washington have
been placed under the ban by the South
east Audubon Society. At recent meet
ing of the organization all suburbanites
were called on to take prompt steps at
this time, when the songsters and other
desirable birds are nesting and preparing
to rear their young, to rid their COM
munities of prowling cats that ruthlessly
hunt the birds.
An instance was cited where one semi
wild feline captured and devoured six
birds in one day. several of them being
red birds, blue birds and others that sing.
ing cats in the suburbs of the city that
have no homes are largely responsible for
the depopulating of the immediate vicin-
ity of the city Of it's pretty feathered
visitors that in former years added to
the attractiveness of the surrounding
country with their musical notes and gay
colored plumage.
1t is. proposed that the suburbanites
form clubs to hunt the vagrant cats at
this time and deliver them to the pound
master, who, it was explained, will call
for them. 1t was stated that Maj. Syl-
vester superintendent of police, is in
terested i'm the preservation of the de-
sirable birds of this vicinity.
