AMERICAN UNPOPULARITY
ABROAD,

Much has been heard recently OF
European dislike of the Americans.
During tile discussion OF the Panama
tolls question stress has been laid
upon the fact that the United States
is unpopular in the Eastern IIemis-
phere. President Wilson himself point
cd out that we have attained no great
degree of popularity abroad, and Sena-
tor Lodge frankly admitted that our
relations with other nations arc not
now of the best.
One cause OF this existing fact-for
it is facts the youthful inds-
crotions OF this nation and our self
sunicidncy. The impression III Eu-
rope Aas been and is. rightly or
fly. that we arc not ovcr-cour-
in our dealings with foreign ma
and that by us treaty pledges
held in light esteem.
1T there is another explanation,
aiming an even larger element OF
th and more flattering to our ma
hal pride. 1t is the same explana-
IN which may be given of the hos
ty between Germany and Great

pid growth of our foreign trade and
10 commercial rivalry and jealousy

ientcd rise of Germany in the field
Of; export trade is probably, the under 7
lying cause of tho anti German feel1

CHAPTER XIV.

In . land Of class privilege and ON
cial graft It u often only in times of
anarchy thu . poor man can get his
rights. For eight months Hooker had
battled against the petty intrigue Of
Aragon and tho aSente mineral, and
then suddenly, when the times turned
to war and fear gripped at their hearts,
he rose up and claimed his own, hold
ing oat his brawny right hand and de-
manding the concession OF his mine
In day the whirligig Of fortune had
turned. and 1t was the fighting man
who dominated. He spoke quietly and
made no threats, but the look in his
eye was enough. and the agente gave
him his papers. Then he wrote out 4
receipt for the mining tax and Bud
stepped forth like king.
With his papers inside his shirt and
belt Of gold around his waist there
was nothing left In Mexico for him.
Once on his horse and headed for the
line and he could laugh at them all.
In Gadsden he could show title to
Kruger. he could give answer for his
trust and look the world In the eye.

CHAPTER XIII.

: There are two things. according to
the sped arrow and the spoken word.
Whether spoken in anger or in Jest,
our winged thoughts will not come
back to US and, where there is no balm
for the wound we have caused. there
is nothing to do but let it heal.
Bud Hooker was a man Of few
words, and slow to speak ill of anyone,
but some unfamiliar devil had loosened
his tongue and he had told the worst
about Phil Certainly if a man were
the bravest of the brave, certainly if
he loved his girl more than life itself
he would net be content to hide
above the line and pour out his soul
on note-paper. But to tell 1t to the
giri-that was an objectionable sin!
Still. now that the damage was done.
there was no use of vain repining. and
after cursing himself whole-heartedly
Bud turned in for the night. Other
days were coming; there were favors
he might do: and perhaps, A. the yes
terdays went by. Gracia would forgive
him for his plain speaking. Even to-
MORROW. II the rebels came back for
moro, he might square himself In &C.

It had been = long time since any
oae had used that word to him, but
after the way he had knitted dear
Phil" he had to admit he was 1t. But
dear Phil" 1t was that which had
set him OF.
II she knew how many other girls
but Bud put sudden Quietus on that
particular line of thought. As long as
the world stood and Gracia was in his
sight he swore never to speak i'll Of

nothing that he could say now.
In a moment of resentment, driven

LIGHTNING FIRES A BARN
Building Owned by john Eisenhowe'
Totally Destroyed

A large barn on the old Keel
place, owned by John Eisenhower,
was struck by lightning last night
and destroyed. In. the barn were ten
calves and a mule. All Of the ami
mails were taken out Of the build
ing except one calf, which burned.
Five or six tons of hay were de-
strOyed also.
The fire department was called
out, but by the time the long run
was made, the building was past
saving. Near 1t was another barn
and between them were two silos,
and for a time Mr.. Eisenhower
thought the second barn might
take fire. s-f. rt-
The barn was insured for $1,000
1t was the smaller Of the two barns
on the place.

DUCK HUNTERS FIND
TAME SPORT JUST NOW

Duck hunting is rather tame just
now, according to Paul Fry, one OF
the local spOrtsmen who hikes for
Acme Lake, which he with several
other Abilene men has leased, as
soon as the season opens. The COM
ing of colder weather in the north
will bring the ducks south, but up
to the present time the duck shoot
ing around here has not been very
good. Forty-four hunters are licens-
ed In the county.
President Wilson has approved
certain changes in open seasons on
game birds in several states, recon-
mended by the United States de-
partment OF agriculture. The chang
es in water fowl laws which affect
Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma set
the open season from September Is
to January 81, inclusive.

amount $500 in excess OF the total

the Safe Catarrh Remedy

The most pleasant, easiest, harm-
less, and the really sensible method
for the cure Of catarrh Is Hyomei'
which can be had from any drug
store. Just put twenty drops OF the
LIQUID in the small inhaler that
comes with every compete outfit
then breathe 1t. A few minutes use
almost instantly clears the head and
stops the annoying. shifting.
When using Hyomei every parti-
Gle of air that enters the breathing
organs is charged with an antisep-

the catarrh germs, stops the I'M
clean discharges from the nose, re-
lieves the irritation and quickly
heels the sore and inflamed tissues.

most every page. and the full page
color plates call forth expressions OF
admiration and delight.
Many kind words Of commenda-
ton are received daily, and but rev
fail to compliment US on the spirit
that prompts such liberal offer. 1t
i Is admitted that this timely book is
not only highly entertaining, but
that It is an educational work OF
rare value at this particular time
