Mr.. and Mrs. Dumas, as did other
members of the family, fearful for
her safety, tried to dissuade Mrs
Barron from her determination to go
back to the physician, but she insis.-
ed that the welfare Of the four chill
dren was at stake and that this forced
her to smother her humiliation
brought on by his conduct
Dumas said Mrs. Barron failed 10
state whether DR. Barron mentioned
the method by which he threatened
! to get rid Of his family.
Dumas and DR.. Barron talked to-
gether at Liberty Hill Cemetery while
Mrs. Barron was being buried. and
| the former declared the physician
| made the remark then that "it
wouldn't be so bad If it wasn't for his
four children"
The conversation at that time was
given by Dumas in this way:
DR. Barron and l were standing
! beside the grave, and just as the cas-
ket was lowered I remarked to him.
Doc, this is pretty bad on you
! Without looking up, he replied. Yes.
it's pretty hard and then he addej

EXPLORED LAND OF MYSTERY
Adventurous Young American Has
Travelled Through the Interior of
Guatemala.

The recent experience of a young
American in the great unknown dis
trict of Peten, in Guatemala, has fur
nished for science one OF the most
valuable records In years regarding
the life Of what Is perhaps the most
ancient race OF human beings In *
istence.
In a trip Just completed, In which he
spent more than two years in the
jungles of a territory whose mystery
has for years repealed as well as at
tracted the adventurous, Russell Hast,
ings Millward, Americas youngest *
plorer, had not only captured the
worlds mileage record by travelling
across more than three thousand miles
of unknown country, but has opened
up for the merchant and archaeolo-
gist a land whose wealth has hither-
to only been guessed at, remarks the
New York Tribune.
The popular impression that there is
no more work for the twentieth CEN
fury explorer could find no better ref
utation than in the exploit Of this
young man. The district of Peten.
lying to the westward of British Hon
duras, between the Caribbean coast
and the Bay of Campeche, has been
known since time immemorial to all
central Americans as THE Mystery"
There Millward has located lakes and
mountains whose existence has hith-
erto been a matter Of rumor only.
For the first time a white man has
penetrated those Businesses and seen
the ruins Of temples and palaces
which, now overgrown and buried IN
der the foliage Of the jungle, were
once the centers of magnificent cities.
He has not only outlined the extent OF
the once iourishing empire of the
Maya race, but, of Importance to the
world of commerce, he has practically
opened up a new field whose riches
will in a few years be one of the
chief assets Of the Guatemalan govern
ment.

Q KITE.

OF the more pretentious kites, none
is more popular than the rectangular
box-kite. 1t approaches nearest to the
form Of the biplane aeroplane of any
kite yet devised, and Is n of the
steadiest OF fliers.
Box-kites can be purchased ready
made in a number of sizes, but they
are not cheap. and 1t will pay any boy
to take the time necessary to make
one. While their construction requires
considerable more work than the mon
oplane form of kite, 1t is not difficult.
and Is SO interesting that no boy can
fail to enjoy 1t.
The illustrations show a kite of
scientifically developed proportions.
Pine, spruce and wildwood are the
best materials for making these kites,
though any strong, lightweight wood
OF straight. grain may be used II
easier to obtain. The horizontal
sticks and braces must be cut straight
and Of uniform thickness, as in the
making Of any kite, If you live neal
a. lumber yard or planning mill, pos
sibly you can get strips of just the
size you require from the waste pile
for the mere asking, or for a few
cents get them ripped out of a board
II not, you will find it an easy enough
matter to cut them yourself, with {
sharp rip-saw. Short kite sticks car
be whitfield straight enough with the
jack-knife, but long ones can be GU
easier and with greater accuracy witt
