whom the police had been asked to
search by the mother
In a dramatic appeal. Mrs. Cameron
Falconet told of her failure to get her
daughter away from the influences of
the Negro. She described her anguish
when she learned, last Friday, that
her daughter was a frequenter of
Johnson's cafe. her hurried trip here
to rescue the girl, her interviews with
the nugilist, who, she declared, insult
ed her and .flouted her plea that he
give up the? girl. Johnson, she said
told her he could get any woman he
wanted"
She pointed out to the girl the wrong
she mad done. | told her | would give
up anything 4 had in life to get her
to go back and / would go to any place
with her and shield her from criticism
back hcme. she refused to come, be-
ing apparently under Johnsons infiu-
ence.
Then I telephoned the pugilist. He
said he would send an automobile for
me-. Friends advised me to see If l
could not personally TO give up my
daughter.
when his automobile arrived he
was in it himself, although he said 1t
would be empty. When I entered the

said to me.
II begged johnson to give my daugh-
ter up. He said he wouldn't and laugh
ed in my face.

road. where Lucille was staying. She
wept and told me she had gone too far
to go back. Every once in "a while she
would walk cut of the room with the

Blaylock's little scheme to trick the

SUBSTITUTES FOR BREAo.

In various parts of the world, the
poorer classes consume little or nc
bread. Baked loaves of bread are
practically unknown in portions of
southern Austria and Italy, and
throughout the agricultural districts
of Roumania, says the London Stand
ard. Austrians aver that in the vii
lage of Obersteirmark, not very far
from Vienna, bread Is never seen,
The staple food is sterz, kind of por-
ridge made from ground beech nuts,
taken at breakfast with fresh or cur7
died milk, at dinner with broth oE
fried lard, and at supper with milk,
The dish is also called heiden, and is
substituted for bread, not only in the
Austrian district mentioned, but in
Carinthia and other parts of the Ty-
rol. Northern Italy offers substi7
tute for bread in the form of Polenta,
which is a kind of porridge made of
boiled grain. Polenta is not, however,
allowed to granulate like Scotch por-
ridge or the Austrian sterz. 1t is in
stead boiled into a solid pudding,
which is cut up and portioned out
with a string. 1t is eaten cold as
often as it is hot, and is in every
sense an Italians daily bread. There
is variation of polenta called mama,
liga, the favorite food of the poorest
classes II Roumania. Mamaliga re,
sembles polenta inasmuch as it is
made of boiled grain, but it is unlike
the former in one respect-the grains
are not permitted to settle into solid
mass, but are kept distinct after the
fashion of oatmeal porridge.
