Consul Alfred w. DoEegan at Mag
deburg reports to the state depart
ment that the German sugar produc'
ton in the first quarter Of the cur
rent campaign (Sept l to November
80, 1912 was the largest in ten years,
sc, 1876, 700 German hundredweight
(110.23 pounds) having been produced
in this period from q total of 242, 49,
500 hundredweight of beets. Consul
Donegan gives table showing the re-
suits for the quarter mentioned in the
ten years 1903-1912, which shows a
yield of 26,034,0 900 hundredweight of
sugar from 206, 914, 700 hundredweight
of beets in the first year of the series.
This shows a gain in round numbers
of 10, 700, 600 cwt in 1912 as compared
with 1908. Sugar exported in the first
quarter of 1908 was 4,123, 800 cwt., and
in 1912 it was 5,340, 900, an increase
of 1,216,800 cwt. In the years be-
tween the production fluctuated, the
highest being 36,534,300 in 1910 and
the lowest 23,6S2,900 in 1911. The
export also fluctuated-wnen the pro-
auction was 32,262, 100 cwt.-the high
est being 6,97S,500 in 1906. and the
lowest 1,538, 200 in 1911. Referring to
the record product of this period Con-
sui Donegan says: Such large ship
ments in the first quarter have al
ready brought decided relief to the
sugar industry. England is naturally
the chief buyer, but American pur
ehases also have been of importance.

homeliest human critter I ever laid

preacher aided by the sisters and dea-
cons, decided to make a combined ef-
fort to bring him into the fold. Think,

sand times more acutely in memory
words had brought him a new gleam
of hope. Never before had loneliness
seemed so complete, and never before
had he realized how wide was the
chasm between the old and the new
life. This constantly recurrent mem
ory embittered him, and made him
restless. Yet out of it all, there grew
firmer determination to win back his
old position in the world, to stamp
out the lie through which the Confed
crate court-martial had condemned
him. If LIE Fevre we're alive, he meant
now to find him, face him, and com
pei him to speak the truth. The dis.
covery of that haversack gave a point
from which to start, and his mind cen.
tered there with fixed purpose which
obscured all else.
1t was after dark when "M' troop,

lights of the guard-house revealed the
troopers faces, while all about them

rison came forth to welcome their ar
rival. Guided by corporal of thu

stables, and, as they passed the row
of officers houses Hamlin caught a
furtive glimpse in radius of light
that gave his pulses sudden throb.
She was here then-here! He had
hardly dared hope for this. They

be avoided in such narrow quarters

SYNOPSIS.

Major Mcdonald commanding an army
post near Fort Dodge. seeks man to
Intercept his daughter, Molly, who is
headed for the post. An Indian outbreak
Is threatened. Brick Hanln, SER
geant who has just arrived with mes
sages to Mcdonald, volunteers for the
mission. Molly arrives at Fort Ripley
two days ahead Of schedule. She decides
to push on to Fort Dodge by stage in
company with "Sutler Bill Moylan. Con-
zales, a gambler, is also a passenger.
Hamlin meets the stage with stories of
depredations committed by the Indians.
The driver deserts the stage when Indi-
ans appear. The Indians are repulsed
In attacks on the stage. Moylan and
Gonzales are killed. Hamlin and Molly
plan to escape in the darkness by way
Of gully. Molly is wounded and Ham
lin carries her. They cross river and
go into hiding. The Indians discover their
escape and start pursuit, but go in the
wrong direction Hamlin is much excited
at finding a haversack marked G. S. A.
He explains to Molly that he was in the
Confederate service and dismissed In dis
grace under charges Of cowardice. At the
close of the war he enlisted in the regu-
lar service. He says the haversack was
the property of one Capt. LeFevre, who
he suspects of being responsible for his
disgrace and for whom he has been
hunting ever since. Troops appear on
the scene.

Like the Greek Philosophers Fate
The matter of newspaper subscrip-
tions reminds a Kansas editor of the
Greek philosopher whose poverty be-
gan to pinch him. One of his friends
sent word to the men of the city that
each should take a certain kind OF
wine and on certain day go to the
philosophers house and pour the wine
into an empty vat. And so they did
but each thought that one bottle OF
water would not be noticed in so
much wine, and the vat was filled
with water. Thus the philosopher
received no aid. 1t is somewhat that
way with subscriptions. One fellow
thinks he owes only small amount
and so neglects to pay it. The other
fellow thinks the same and the editor
fares almost as well as the philos.

ECZEMA ON ENTIRE SCALP

was troubled with eczema. 1t began
with a sore on the top of the scalp,
broke out as a pimple and grew larger
until it was q large red spot with a
crust or scab over it. This became
larger finally covering the entire scalp
and spread to different parts of the
body, the limbs and back and in the
ears. These sores grew larger grad
ually until some were as large as a
quarter of a dollar. They would itch
and if scratched they would bleed and
smart. The clothing would irritate
them at night when it was being re-
moved causing them to itch and smart
so | could not sleep. A watery fluid
would run from them. My scalp be-
came covered with a scale and when
the hair was raised up it would raise
this scale; the hair was coming out
terribly.

estimates that there are over mil

States, of whom probably at least one
third are unable to provide for them
selves the necessary treatment at

out of sight she turned and waved
one hand. Then the mans gaze swept
over the debris of the burned stage,
and the two mounds of earth. Even
these mute evidences of tragedy
scarcely sufficed to make him realize
all that had occurred ii this lonely
spot. He could not seem to separate
his thought from the cavalcade which
had just departed, leaving behind the
memory of that farewell wave of the
hand. To him it marked the end of
a dream, the return to a life distaste-
full and lonely.

"T know-night riders themselves,
but 1 know the trail. Can you outfit
me, lieutenant?"
Gaskins smiled grimly, but with no
trace of humor. His eyes were upon
the girl, still leaning over her POM
mel
..'I'll outfit you all right" he said
brusquely, "and with no great regret,
either. And I shall report finding
you here in disobedience to orders"
Very well, sir"
Molly's brown eyes swept to the
lieutenant's face, her form straighten-
ing in the saddle, her lips pressed
tightly together. Gaskins fronted the
sergeant, stung into anger by the
mans quiet response.

he stood, irresolute, and then swung

he seemed to be talking earnestly:

at night, under the stars, he lay with

Certain facts were, however, sufl.

that he was in the ranks, great as
that handicap was, could have pre-
vented an attempt at retaining the
