results achieved here by others in or
ganizing the Boy Scout movement in
England can never be known. 1t is
certain, however, that he instilled life
into the movement in every place it
has been undertaken and his name has
become so closely associated with it
that today he is regarded with afTec-
tion by hundreds of thousands of Boy
Scouts not only in Great Britain. but
in every one of the score or more of
nations to which the movement has
spread.
Ernest Thompson Seton and Daniel
Carter Beard already had achieved sig

troops and appealing to their magma
tions and aboriginal instincts as
means for improving character. The
former, with his boys of woodcraft;
Mr.. Beard. with his boy pioneers. de-
scendants of Daniel Boone; the Rev.
Byron W. FUrbush, with his knights of
King Arthur; Sir Arthur Chew, with
his federation of boys clubs of Ameri-

work many features of the Boy scout

that he drew largely from the expert
ences of these organizations. but adapt
ed his new movement to the conditions
he encountered in the loca llty where
he commenced his work with boys.
'Bots' began his work of organizing
Boy Scouts in 1907. long after the
events of Mafeking and the work of
Boy Scout troops there had come to be

That was about the last word he
had had from Dick. They had ridden
up to the city together. but they had
conversed but little and at the Battery
the reporter shook his friends hand
and hurried away.
Dick was a dreamer: yes. But on
the basic principles of life Dick was
right, and he had proved a good
prophet
The sting of conscience and remorse
began to take such hold on Bob that
he ceased to share his wife's pleasures
and he found himself aggrieved and
annoyed at her extravagances. The
sight of her costly gowns actually irri-
tated him, for he continued to lose
heavily and his entire fortune now was
less than the forty thousand dollars
with which Brand had rewarded his
duplicity. 1t was not his losses, how
ever. that unnerved him. It was the
thought that he now had nothing of his
own making and that for every luxury
his wife enjoyed. he and she were
bounden to Brand. Jane was oblivious
to 1t. but that only aggravated the Ill.
He avoided her. Night after night he
remained away. urging press of bust
ness while he was engaged in nothing
more urgent than some game Of chance
which for him had lost even the ele-
ment OF sociability. His sleeping hours
were as troubled as his wakeful ones
and pleading extreme nervousness to
Jane. he advised that they occupy sep
arate rooms.
He dreamed constantly OF Dick and
the bungalow and Of his earlier days
with Jane. And once he dreamed of
something else. He awoke ciutching
at the clothes, with beads of cold sweat
starting from his brow and the picture
Of q horrible nightmare still before
his eyes. He had dreamed that the
dam had collapsed and that hundreds
Of persons were dead, martyrs to his
crime. And while he dreamed these
dreams Brand slept peacefully. One
was conscience-prodded transgressor
and the other a self-satisfied progress
i've.
At last Bob decided on an escape.
He determined to risk everything he
had. house and all. in final coup. If
he won. he would go away whether
Jane went or not. He could give her
enough to be comfortable on II he were
successful. and II he lost-well, there
would, at least. be a change.

ichthyol.

The importation of ichthyol, pc.
culiar asphaltic material found in Aus
tria, which finds application after ap-
propriate chemical treatment as very
important medicament, has been, along
with many other products, cut off by
the war. The raw material comes from
a fossiliferous deposit near Seefeld. in
the Austrian Tyrol. 1t is carefully Sc.
lected and subjected to dry distillation.
The distlllate thus obtained is then
sulphonated and subsequently neutral
lied with ammonia. The use of this
material has greatly increased in the
last few years, and it has proved very
beneficial. Almost Immediately follow
ing the beginning Of the war its price
doubled, going to over so cents an
ounce. Already, however. a firm in st.
Louis has material on the market,
which has been favorably recommend
ed as an efficient substitute, closely re-
