protest should be met by the British

how, inevitably, serious difficulties

neutral, the fact that a number of

He leaned across the table and

What further might have been said

he saw the door opposite him open
and Gloria appear. Instantly he re.
Taxed from his tense, strained man

men turned to find that David Kerr's
daughter was the cause. She stood in
the doorway hesftatingly, recognizing
that she was interruptfng a business

"but from the window l saw Mrs.
Hayes on the street, and thought I'd
go to her."

standing.

With horses going into heavy labor
in very thin condition many of them
will not fill the collar as snug as in
former years. This will necessarily
create more sore shoulders and necks
than commonly. The collar should fit

was not a new one by any means. If it
proved to be gid" the sheep had sim
ply picked up, more apt to on wet, low
grounds, the eggs of a tapeworm com
mon to dogs, foxes and some other
wild animals. Usually, unless the
worm Matching from these eggs reach
es the brain, the body will rid itself OF
it, and none or but little harm be done
to the sheep. But should it reach the
brain, where it becomes encysted, gid
diness first follows, and next paralysis,
and the inability to walk ensues before
death claims it,
The disease will not spread unless
the head after death, is left where il
can be eaten by dogs, and the trouble
thus be spread where other sheep may
take up the eggs on grass or other
food.
If the cysts form in central part OF

left of the brain, the right limbs will
lose motion; and if the cysts form on
the right side of brain, it is the Left
limbs that will lose their power
A sheep thus attacked may continue
to eat until death and to keep in good
flesh. The disease runs it's course in
from six to eight months.
There is no cure for the trouble.
1t is a serious disease to find among
your sheep as it is disease that can
be communicated to those who work
about the premises. AS it is rare dis

keeping sheep on account of it. The
symptoms given will lead you to early

CHAPTER XIV.

Gloria's announced intention Of re-
Joining Mrs. Hayes was not the only
motive that had brought her into the
library. The angry hum of voices had
been borne to her even through the
closed door, and with woman's i'm
patience and curiosity she was anxious
to know what was going on. Greater
than all else, however, was her desire
to be with Wright. She thought that
by appearing she could bring matters
to conclusion and carry off with her
the man she loved Now that she was
In the library and Wright had said
that he was ready to go whenever she
was, David Kerr's daughter forgot
about her desire to go to Mrs. Hayes
DR.. Hayes and his wife were return
ing to Judge Gilbert's Office when Clio
ria had seen them, and soon Williams
ushered them into the library. The
presence Of the two women prevented
all open discussion of political mat
ters. Even had it not been for Miss
Kerr and Mrs. Hayes there could have
been no controversy, because after
Wright had made his position clear he
would not talk further about it. Now
he was merely waiting for Gloria.
IT thought you said you wouldn't be
long," was the way, in a playful at
tempt at seriousness, Gloria upbraided
her sovereign lord when they found
themselves little apart from the
others.
ut wasn't my fault" was all he
could say.

such a pleasing revelation. l hope

that you 60"
II thought about 1t, dear, but cant
go. What would say to father!"
Wright was on the point Of again
urging her to leave Belmont when he
heard the faint cries of newsboys far
down the street. Nearer and nearer
came the boys. Louder and louder
were their cries. Street sales in Bel
mont were so small that the little
urchins who sold papers to chance
customers were never very noisy. An
unusual clamor on their part beto-
kened some extraordinary piece of
news. Their shouts at last began to
attract the attention of others In the
room. Kerr. Kendall and Hayes looked
at Wright Questioningly. Then. as

(By IDA M. SHEPLER)
A few years ago IN this section you
might drive miles and not see a flock
of sheep. Today they are appearing
In numbers upon the farms-even up
on 40 and 60-acre farms.
The reason is that many farmers are
beginning to realize the need of sheep
upon the farm. Mutton is becoming
popular meat. There is a demand
for good lambs. Sheep grow into
money faster than most other animals.
They are cleansers Of the farm wllea
it comes to getting rid Of the weedc
and briars.
But many farmers are as yet igno-

would react on Gloria. He could nnd

Au!er without Gloria being cogntxant
OF the fact.
THAT'S Just Western politics" The
boss tried to pass It CT lightly "Don't
let that bother you
Ike must be punished, say" Her
indignation knew no bounds. "Would
you let 1t go unchallenged that am
the daughter Of such a MANI"
Kerr was aroused by her spirited
manner. 1t would be necessary, he
saw, for him to carry Il through to
the end.
Suppose it was Joe Wrght?" he
asked.
The occasion was too serious for a
smile, but in her heart she laughed
away the suggestion. She wanted to
show her contempt for a man who
through newspaper would utter such
lies, and she therefore replied:
'That can't be. He isn't that kind
Of man. But II he did, l would still
say"
1T Is Joe Wright" Kerr reared.
All leaned forward to hear what
tho girl would say.
sThen would suN say, Punish Jos
Wright"
From Wright's lips there burst forth
one word:
"Glorial"
He came step toward her. and she
turned to him with an assuring smile.
Il don't believe 1t, joe" Again she
addressed her father and with hne
