ACT AS SPUR TO MANS PRIDE.
Love and Belief Are Powerful Agents
for Reformation.

Love and belief in a man can never
hurt him. 1t will always act as a
spur to his pride, which is invariably
close to a mans love, whilst 1t has
little or nothing to do with woman's.
Even when the schoolboy falls In
love with the little girl In pinafores.
his first instinct is to acqult himself
in her eyes in SOME magnificent way
to knock out some other boy, or in
timidate a foe.
This instinct remains with men I'M.
til they die, just as girls from the
cradle or inspired by love seek beauty
to appear lovely in the eyes of their
adorers.
And the masculine pride and PROV
ess and strength are what the wise
girl will use in her desire to reform
some man who is merely weak
Nagging drives such men into the
depths. Every look of derision. snub.
insult, sinks the iron deeper into their
souls.-EXchange.

was past lWO " ClOCh WITCH
- the sun, striking in where
Blake lay outstretched, be-
gan to scorch one of his legs. He
stirred uneasily, and sat upright. Like
a sailor, he was wide awake the mo-
ment he opened his eyes. He stood
up and .peered around through the half
leafiess branches.
Over the water thousands of gulls
and terms, boobies and cormorants
were Swimming and diving, while
above them number of graceful frigate
birds-those swart, scarlet-throated pi-
rates of the air-hung poised, ready to
swoop down and rob the weaker birds
of their fish. All about the headland
and the surrounding water was life
in fullest action. Even from where
he stood Blake could hear the
harsh clamor of the seafowl.
In marked contrast to this scene the
plain was apparently lifeless. When
Blake rose,i small brown lizard
darted away across the sand. Other
wise there was neither sight nor
sound of living creature. Blake pom
dered this as he gathered his clothes
into the shade and began to dress.
Looks like the siesta is the all
round style in this God-forsaken hole"
he grumbled. Haven't seen so much
as a rabbit, nor even one land bird.
May be a drought-no; must be the
dry season Vince, these things are
hot! I'm thirsty as shark. Now,
where's that softy and her ladyship?
'Fraid she's in for a tough time!"
He drew on his shoes with a jerk,
growled ut their stiffness, and, club
in hand, stepped clear of the brush to
look for his companions. The first
glance along the foot of the cliff

yards beyond the sand beach or

alarmed by this, Blake started for the

Y T3g~ vas awake, and on Blake's APP
proach, sat up to greet him.
Hello" he called. Where have
you been all this time?"
"'Sleep. Where's Miss LESLIE"
"She's around the point"
Blake grinned mockingly. Indeed!
But fawncy she won't be for long.
He would have passed on, but Win
trope stepped before him.
Don't go out there, Blake" he pro-
tested. "I-ah-think it would be bet
ter IL I went"
"Why?" demanded Blake.
Winthrope hesitated; but an impa-
tient movement by Blake forced an
answer We'll, you remember, this
morning. telling us to dry our clothes"

sickly yellow.

you!" he stammered. But in the midst
catching sight of Blake's bewildered
stare, he suddenly flushed crimson,
and burst out in unrestrained anger:
"You-you bounder-you beastly cad!
Any man with an ounce of decency-"
Blake uttered a jeering laugh
Wow! Hark, how the British lion
r-r-ro-ars when his tails twisted"
You beastly cad!" repeated the
Englishman, now purple with rage.
Blake's unpleasant pleasantly gave
place to a scowl. His jaw thrust out
like a bulldogs, and he bent towards
Winthrope with menacing look. For
a moment the Englishman faced him,
sustained by his anger. But there was
a steely light in Blakes eyes that he
could not withstand. Winthrope's de-
fiant stare wavered and fell. He
shrank back, the color fast ebbing
from his cheeks.
UGH" growled Blake Guess you
won't blat any more about cads. You
damned hypocrite! Maybe I'm not
on to how you've been hanging around
Miss Leslie just because she's an
heiress. Anything is fair enough for
you swells. But let fellow so much
as open his mouth about your exalted
set, and it's perfectly dreadful, you
lnow!"
He paused for reply. Winthrope
only drew back step farther and
eyed him with a furtive, sidelong
glance. This brought Blake back to
his hooking jeer. You'll learn, Pat,
me by. There's lots of things'll show
up different to you before we get
through this picnic. For one thing,
I'm boss here-president. congress and
supreme court. Understand?
"By what right, may | ask" MUIR
INJURED Winthrope.
Right" answered Blake. THAT
hasn't anything to do with the ques-
tion-it's might. Back in civilized
parts your little crowd has the drop
on my big crowd and runs things to
suit themselves. But here we're sort

II myself sympathize with the lower
classes, Mr.. Blake. Above ALL | think
it barbarous the way they punish one
who is forced by circumstances to
appropriate part of the ill-gotten gains
of the rich upstairs. But do you be-
lieve, Mr.. Blake, that brute strength"
you bet! Now shut up. Where're
the cocoanuts?"
WINTHROP picked up two nuts and
handed them over.
There were only five," he ex-
planned.
"All right. I'm no captain of in.
dustry."
"Ah, true; you said we had reverted
to barbarism," rejoined WINTHROP,
venturing an attempt at sarcasm.
Lucky for you," retorted Blake.

Firemen Rescue Many.
MUST FIRE THE EAGLE.
Bank Receiver Is Told That He Cannot
Keep Bird Which Takes Part
of Trust Funds.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 31.-An
American eagle will be deprived of
daily food to the value of so cents as a
result of the action of the acting comp
troller of the currency.
Recently the receiver of a western
bank wrote to the comptroller asking for
instructions with regard to most I'M
usual case. He stated that the bank
held in trust a splendid eagle and that
included in the daily expense of the in
stitution was an item of so cents for
meat with which to feed the bird. He
desired to know what he was to do
about it.
Acting Comptroller Kane upon inves-
tigation found that the laws of the state
in which the bank was located provided
for fine of $40 to $50 for any person
found guilty of keeping an eagle in cap
tivity. He therefore advised the receiver
to that effect and instructed him to re-
lease the bird Immediately.

China Rejects British Ministers Pro.

Indian Surveyor

PEKIN, Aug. 31.-China has declined
the proposal made by Sir John Jordan,
the British minister, that there be held
In Pekin a joint investigation of the
death of Hazrah Ali, an Indian survey.
Or attached to the meteorological exped,
ton under Lieut.. r. s. Clark, former
officer of the United States army.
Henry 2. Fletcher, the American
charge. concurred in the British demand
Hazrah Ali was killed by natives in
Kan Su province last June. China gives
as her reason that it is impossible to
bring witnesses from Kan Su province.
Minister Jordan holds that as the
Clark expedition was travelling under
American passports, it develves upon the
American government to press for
reparation and he intimates that if the
United States does not act he will take
the matter into his own hands. Hazmh
Ali was British subject, and Sir John
explains that it is impossible to permit
his murderers to go unpublished.

RATE CASE APPEALED.
Decision Denying Commerce Commission
Right to Fix Rates Will Be Re-
viewed by High Court

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Aug. 31.--The Chi
cago. Rock Island & Pacific Railway
company, and seven other railway COM
panies. interested in the order of the in
terstate commerce commission institut-
ing a new proportionate rate between
Chicago and Des Moines, withdrew
today their suit to enjoin enforcement of
the order.
The withdrawal was due to a recent
decision by the United States circuit
court in the Missouri river rate case in
which the alleged power of the commits
sion to make new rates was denied. The
principle involved in the Des Moines
case is the same as that decided in the
Missouri river rate case, and will be
reviewed by the supreme court of the
United States.
The decree in the Missouri river rate
case was entered today and Immediately
following this action the appeal to the
supreme tribunal of the country was
perfected. The appeal is based almost
entirel yon the dissenting opinion hand
ed down by Judge Baker, who could not
agree with his majority colleagues in
their decision denying to the commission
the rate making power which it had
sought to enforce in the Missouri river
rate case.
