CHAPTER Xxx.

THE HEAD HUNTERS
"FT1HAT fella boy he SICK" Binu
Charley said, pointing to a
Poonga-Poonga man whose
shoulder had been scratched
by an arrow an hour before.
The boy was sitting down and groan-
ing, his arms clasping his bent knees,
his head dropped forward and rolling
painfully back and forth. For fear Of
poison, Sheldon had Immediately scarf
fed the wound and injected perman-
ganate Of potash; but in spite Of the
precautien the shoulder was swelling
rapidly.
"We'll take him on to where Tudor
is lying Joan said. 1.-THE walking

and scatter the poison. Adamu Adam,
you take hold that boy. Maybe he will

The Advance was more rapid now,
for Binu Charley placed the captive
bushman in front of him and made
him clear the runway of traps. Once,
at sharp turn where a mans Shout
der would unavoidably brush against
a screen Of leaves, the bushman dis
played great caution as he spread the
leaves aside and exposed the head of a
sharp PORTED spear, so set that the
casual passerby would receive at the
least nasty scratch.
The sun sinking behind a lofty west

and came 10 an immense banyan tree
half an acre in extent that made in

its black Depths came the voice of a
man singing in a cracked eerie voice.

The singing stopped, and the voice,

what greater joke could there be than
that the bushmen should have eaten
him?
The Poonga-Poonga mems laughter
died down, and they regarded the spec
tacle with glittering eyes and glutton-
Gus expressions. The Tahitians, on the
other hand, were shocked, and Adamu
Adam was shaking his head slowly and
grunting forth his disgust. Joan was
angry. Her face was white, but in
each cheek was vivid spray Of red.
Disgust had been displaced by wrath,
and her mood was clearly vengeful.
Sheldon laughed.

WOULD SAVE WOODWMEN
FROM DISRUPTION

SPRINGFIELD, Ills. April 26.-In
an effort to save the Modern Wood
men OF America from disruption as
the result or the contention between
the two factions, a compromise bill
will be introduced In the senate when
che assembly reconvenes in May. The
bin probably will be offered In the
form of a substitute for the measure
passed by the house yesterday, which
is believed by many to be plainly un-
constitutional.
The compromise will provide that q
rleeting OF the head camp may be
called at any time on request OF a ma
jority of the camps. Under the pres
ent rules, only the regular meetings
are held every two years. Ii Is argued
that this would give the membership
recourse in q situation such as exists
at this time. Another meeting OF the
head camp could be called at once and
the rate question taken up for recon
s!deration. II would be possible. a. the

The American government.

Nothing is more astonishing to the
average Government official than the
ignorance that many people display
when writing to the various govern
ment departments on official business.
Some OF them, for instance. fancy
that the Department OF Justice has
control of the courts and that the Fed
eral Judges have TO do about as the
department says.
Others try to sell their inventions
to the patent Office, or ask 1t to take
up their ideas and place them on the
market on a commission basis.
Still others write to the Department
OF Agriculture for bushel OF clover
seed or a bag OF wheat.
One hopeful sign, however. is that
fact that this sort OF correspondence
shows tendency to fall of. People
are beginning to see the advantage OF
knowing how their government is OPP
Grated OF knowing what 1t is doing in
their behalf
In letter approving the chapter de-
voted to the Department of Justice In
the new book The American Govern
ment." by Frederic j. Haskin, Attor-
ney-General George W. Wickersham
says the book will prove OF value to
many people who have no idea what
the Department of Justice really is.
And SO II is with every chapter. The
story of the government at work is
told in such clear. concise way that

the danger to an infant from impure

proves fatal.
The housewife should avoid pur-
chasing mixtures. IL she wants TO
make mixture OF maple syrup and
cane syrup let her buy each one pure
and mix them to suit herself. If she
wants glucose in her strained honey
let her buy each separately and mix
them.
If she want cocoanut shells in her
pepper she can put them In just as
well as someone else. IL chicory be
needed in the coffee 1t can be added
at home. This general principle may
be set down as universally true;
whenever a mixture OF this kind is
made 1t Is with purpose of selling
the mixed article at a higher price
than each OF the ingredients would
bring.
Hence both for the purpose of
knowing what is in the mixture, as
well as for economical reasons the
housewife should let these mixtures
severely alone. Get straight goods al
ways, both as a means OF securing
purity as we'll as saving money. The
label will always tell whether II is a

The housewife should discuss food
