shortly returned from an extensive trip
through Africa. which had cost him
5000. He had but little to say Of his
past and. according to Mrs. BrInkwerth,
he had been losing money heavily OF
late.
Among his letters was one evidently
written by a woman. who chides him
for remaining away and asks why he
stays In hiding. Many pawn tickets In
his room and the fact that he had but

police hav cabled to England and are
holding the body until they receive or

first grades" In our 81 years OF merchandising we have set
ourselves firmly against seconds as inimical to health.
In attempting to get down to our lowest-n-the-cty prices
practically all other stores carry those inferior grades. and no
doubt they will continue to carry them until the Board Of Health
recognizes its responsibilities and until the general public awakes
to the menace.

NEW BATTLESHIPS YEARLY

Washington, D. c., December 30
Peace, but with four new battleships
each year to assure it, is Admiral De
wey's wish for the future of the Unit
ed States in it's foreign relations. AS
head of the general navy board the ad'
miral recommended that four new mer

bly, will be made in congress to GU
the number down to two.
The admiral is quoted as saying:
Il am for peace, but peace with
four more battleships as an assurance
that it will be maintained"
Admiral Deway said new ships viii
soon be needed to replace the Oregon

camp and Bill made haste to throw
on his great fur coat and step out of
doors.
In the distance, picking their way
slowly between the bows that marked
the trail across the frozen lake, came
two horses drawing sled. The road
was well marked by the green
branches Old Bill himself had helped
to place in the Ice, but heavy snow
of the night before had made sleigh
ing heavy. Old Bill closed the cabin
door and walked through the narrow
footpath to the foot of the lake. He
had a few friends in the Village, six
miles away, but he little thought of
their coming on a day like this. Z
Hello Bill" came across the cold
air to him.
Bill waved his great hand. AS yet
he could see nothing but the sled
and some muffed creatures within.
We've got surprise for you, Old
Bill" said one of the men as the
sled drew up.

helping to hold the horses while four
persons crawled out from beneath the
fur rugs and stepped into the deep
snow. "You sure have! / haven't

his arm on little figure all wrapped
in great coat, fur cap, veil and nit
tens, here is the surprised" He took
off the heavy garments and lovely
girl stood before him. This, Old
Bill, is your granddaughter, Isabel
Rogers-from Omaha, Nebraska"
Old Bill rubbed his eyes-he did
not wear glasses. Not-not my
daughter Bellies girl?" he cried, look
ing closely at her.
The girl nodded. Eyes, grand
father you daughter Belle was my
mother" she said
The old man put out a hand that
trembled. IL have not heard from
her for years-not since she married
that ranchman Rogers and went out
west to live" he said
The others had stepped aside, see
ing the old mans emotion.

In old Bits
Camp
By Marjorie W. MerrIt

Press.)

Copyright, 1911, by Associated Literary
Old Bills camp nestled down on the
edge of a lake in the heart of the
Maine woods. It was built of logs
and had been, originally, lumber
mems camp After all the desirable
timber had been cut and the camp
abandoned, Old Bill had found 1t and
made application to its owners for 1t.
Being granted permission to live in 1t,
he had taken up his solitary abode
in the woods, and for five years,
winter and summer, he had lived
within the small log house.
Old Bill was a guide and in his
younger days no guide of the Maine
woods had been more popular. He
was full six feet in height and he
knew the woods and trails, the lakes
and mountains like a book. Then
there had come time when he could
no longer tramp from morning till
night with young. enthusiastic Usher
men or hunters, and carry their packs
and cook their meals. But when that
time came he found that he could not
leave the woods. He loved them
every foot Of them-whether they
were strewn with fragrant pine
needles or carpeted with the SHOWS Of
winter.
The old guide had small pension
from the United States. He had
served his time in the civil war and
this monthly sum, small though it
was, was sufficient for his wants, to-
gether with what he was able to find
for his table in the woods and lakes,
In summer he lived off fish and the
berries that grew wild all about his
camp. In winter, he Jared well; vent-
son and game we're plentiful.
1t was December-early December
but the winter was well under way
in the north Of Maine. Old Bill sat
by the stove in his cook house, read
ing a six months old magazine, when
he heard the unfamiliar jungle OF
sleighbells on the crisp air.
He took his feet from the stove and
stood upright, listening, The jingiing
sounds came closer. Some one had
