TALK ABOUT HAlR-RAISERS.

Anyone who likes excitement will be
more than ordinarily interested in the
news that the Ridgway Company, the
well-known publishers of Everybody's
Magazine, have issued new bublica-
tion which will be entirely devoted to
''the most interesting and thrilling
adventure stories to be found any

It's called Adventure, and the first
number has just made it's appearance.
If the contents of this issue can be
considered a fair sample of what is to
follow. it is safe to assume that the
publishers have found what they are
looking for and then some.
Adventure Is big well-made maga-
zine. 1t has 1872 pages of better paper
than is usually found in purely fiction
publication. Three serials and nine or
ten exciting stories, with appropriate
drawings, go to make up what most
people will consider a very good Is cents
worth, indeed.
"Yellow Men and Gold. " "Can Man
Be True?" and '"rhe Crook and The
Doctor" can be specially recommended
to those who like to have their thrills
handed out to them in rapid succession,
If the energy and skill with which the
publishers have handled Everybody
Magazine counts for anything at ALL
this new publication can be relied upor
to go some. Folks who know the his
tory of the inside workings of the maga
zine game, will talk with wonder ir

ORIGINAL "HOME! SWEET HOME!"
II is the Birthplace Of John Howard
Payne, in a Lone Island VilIa6e.

The imagination staggers at trying to
picture the times and places that have
witnessed the singing of Home! Sweet
Home!" writes Honore Whsle in the
New IDEA WoMAN's MAGAZINE for
November.
1t has been sung at home gatherings
and reunions; about lonely campfires
by soldiers bivouacked on some bloody
battlefield in America or far-off India.
1t has been sung in far African jungles;
on solitary ships sailing unknown seas;
by immigrant trains staggering across
some burning desert.
The rough throats of marauders have
softened to chant its notes. The bleared
eyes of the evil have dimmed ut the
pictures it conjures. Old men have
quavered it in almshouses. Fallen wo-
men have sobbed it when their memo
ries spoke. Prima donnas have risen to
fame on its notes, and children have
lisped it unheedingly at their mothers
knees. 1t was written by one who
thought himself failure; by an Ameri-
can.
Away down on the southeast coast of
Long Island, almost within walking dis
tance of Montauk Point, its eastermost
end, and quite too far from New York
City to be found by the casual tot rst.
is the village of East Hampton.
Just about opposite the liberty pole,
at the end of the Green, stands two
story, gray-shingled cottage. with bit
of lawn in front of it, with pink
orchard back of it; gray cottage with
tiny, multipaned windows, embowered
clean to the caves with yellow and white
of honeysuckle, with red green of wood
bine. and lavender of wistaria; quaint
cottage of two centuries ago with a
long hipped roof, banked with violets,
sheltered by giant willow tree.
This was the home of John Howard
Payne. the author of the beautiful song.
Under the caves of the house. he
dreamed his beautiful creation, which
today is one of Americas choicest
treasures.

EVERYDAY HEROES.

If we cannot climb to the mountain top
With those whom the world calls great,
Ii We cannot join in their lofty work
Nor share in their high estate,
We can sing song as we pass along
Through the toiling crowds below,
And its notes may fall on some listening
ear
With a balm that we little know.
If we cannot work for the world at large,
Or give with lavish hand,
If we cannot SOW our seed broadcast
Throughout waiting land,
AS we go on our way we can give to
each day
OF our best; though it be but flower.
A word, or a smile, yet to some poor
soul
1t may mean a golden hour.
True greatness lies not always
In the winning of worldly fame,
Nor doing our best, spurred on by the
cheers
And plaudits that follow our name.
But he who can face with CHEEKY grace
The everyday of life,
with its petty things that rasp and
stingo
is hero in the strife.

A SQUEEZED LEMON.
Norfolk Virginian-Pilot.0

Time was, and not so long since, when
the voting strength of the Republican
party in the South was almost alto
gether with the negroes. Then the
white leadership was eloquent in de-
fence of the wrongs of the black man
and tried to convince him that the DEM
Gratis were his enemies and oppressive,
and would enslave him again if they
could.
But no sooner had revised suffrage
laws minimized the negro contingent at
the ballot-box. than the same leader
ship commenced to form lily-white or
gaDizations, to exclude the negroes
from their political conventions. In
Virginia, having opposed bitterly what
they called the shameful disfranchise-
ment of the negro" no sooner had the
new Constitution gone into effect than
Mr.. Slemp and his lieutenants put the
ban of ostracism on Sambo and made a
boast that there was now "a white
mans party" In Alabama the Repub-
lican candidate for Governor is opposing
the Democratic nominee ON the ground
that the latter gives two much SYM
pathy and aid to Booker Washington s
plans for educating the youth of his
race.
All of which goes to conclusive proof
that the only use the Southern Repub-
licans ever had for "The down-trodden
brother" was to climb into office on his
shoulders. The Democrats or the other
hand have never deceived him. They
have told him from the first that they
did not regard and would not treat him
as political or social equal, but that in
the matter of his mental and material
advancement they would give him every
legitimate chance to better his condi-
tion. They We're and are his best friends.
The Republicans never looked upon him
except as ladder to climb ON,

PIRATES OF HONGKONG.

Blocdthirsty Kind.


Blocdthirsty Kind.
There are pirates in Hongkong-pot
the usual kind that greet the gentle
stranger with an expansive smile and
take what he has for worthless rub
bish. nor yet the petty thieves that go
by that name on our own water fronts,
but the real old fashioned, murderous
kind, who count not the victims as
they reckon the spoils.
OF course they do not swagger in cos
tune, as all real pirates should, or ply
their trade in Hongkong's immediate
waters, but among the thousands OF
fishermen, stevedores and coal han
dlers that crowd the harbor's edge they
mingle and gossip water front news.

per cent of divorce cases-"much to

Life is singing all the way
BE soldier of the day!
Love is crying, day and night
Be a soldier in the fight!
Soldier, soldier, it is true,

Loyal effort, earnest will,
Tireless courage, matchless skill.
Less than this, the song, the dance
But no higher hope nor chance.

Soldier-like and soldier pure,

FIRES THAT ARE ASLEEP.
A Great Range of Volcanoes In the
Heart of Africa.

Heart of Africa.
1t is not very generally known that
right in the heart of Africa at the
southern end of Lake Albert Edward
is a great range of volcanoes. They
are eight i'm number, and. though it is
true that, unlike RukenZor, they carry
no permanent snow. the highest peak
is over 1900 feet in height. These
volcanoes are particularly interesting
on account OF their comparative new
ness. Running through the middle Of
Africa there is n trench many hundred
miles long, in which lie the great lakes
Albert. Albert Edward. Kivu and Tan
ganyika.
Not very many thousands Of years
ago the volcanoes, generally called
Mfumbiro. burst up through the mid
die of this trench and made dam
across 1t, with the result that some of
the water which formerly flowed into
Lake Albert Edward and so into the
Nile was cut off and a lake was form
ed behind the dam. AS times went on
the waters in the lake which is now
called Kivu rose higher and higher
until. not being able to flow over the
barrier Of the volcanoes, they formed
the Rusisi river, which runs the other
way into Tanganyika. about hundred
miles distant. OF the eight volcanoes
only two show signs of activity at the
present time in the form OF thin wisps
of steam which may occasionally be
seen, but a vast plain of lava. with a
wide black stream curling through its
midst. showed where formidable
eruption had taken place only two or
three years before our visit. There
are hot springs scattered here and
there. and we felt slight shocks OF
earthquakes once or twice. so IL is not
safe to say that the Mfumbiro yolca-
noes are extinct.-Wide World Maga-
