81 cannot raise the money" de-
clared Maurice. Miss Dale, as you
know, has no means. We will have
to let the property go by default.
AS Maurice left the attorneys Of
flee and rather gloo1hily walked along
.0or streets of the primitive min
ing settlements he had a deal to oc-
cupy his thoughts. His father had
died in the East a few months pre-
vious, leaving barely enough to pay
his debts. Only one possible asset
was discovered half interest in the
Triumph mine at Sierra. His part
ner in that enterprise had been Sam .
uel Dale.
Maurice had come west to see if
there was anything tangible to the
proposition. 1t was to find Samuel
Dale dead and his daughter Winnie
teaching the one school in the dis
trict.
He found her as helpless as him
self in the way of finances. He mar
veled to discover this educated girl,
the graduate of high-class eastern
college, among such crude environ
ment. In fact she and himself were
about the only persons in the settle
ment of any refinement and culture.
He was interested in her the mo-
ment he met her, and her sad story
won his deepest sympathy and re-
gard.
1t appeared that her father was an
old friend of the father of Maurice,
who had financed the mine. Its value
was undeniable, but Mr.. Allen had
died at time when more capital was
needed, and Mr. Dale broke down I'M
der the strain of hard work and wor-
ry, and died also. He left few debts.
His daughter had become surety for
these and was nobly- striving to pay
them off before she went to relatives
and another school position nearer
civilization

EVERYONE MUST DO HIS
PART.

"Patronize home industry" is
a slogan that looks well in print,
sounds well in a public address
and is a fine thing if carried into
actual practice, but the man who
advises his neighbors to patronize
home industry, then buys prac
tically all of his needs in some
other town or city, is setting a
mighty poor example and falls
far short of being a good citizen.
The home printer, the home
furniture dealer. the home cloth
ing merchant. all have their eyes
on the citizen who advises his
neighbors to patronize home IL
dustry, but spends his own money
elsewhere.
We are dependent upon one
another; and if our town is to be
made the best town everyone
must do his part toward patron
izing home industry and keeping
at home the money needed for
town and community develop
ment.-Chief.

PONDER THIS. IF YOU ARE
FAT.

DR.. Wiley's famous poison
squad has parallel in recens
investigations made by the bureau
Of chemistry of the u. S. Agricul-
tural Department. This time IL
is "fat squad.' and some Of the
cOrpulent employees Of the gov
ernment, finding the summer heat
Of Washington hard to bear, have
been taking obelity remedies and
fat-reducing cures in vain en-
deavor to get rid Of their surplus
flesh. After a period of investi
CATION covering several months
the department now announces
officially that anti-fat cures are
worthless and in many cases
harmful
The preparations usually con
tain thyroids and alaxative. The
thyroids may prove very hurtfuI
unless given under the advice Of
a physician personally familiar
with the patients physical condi-
ton. The department has or
record one instance where death
has followed overdoses Of prep
arations containing thyroids
Other remedies" contain poke
root, which is poisonous, and stili
others are shown by analysis to-
contain nothing that could pos
sibly have the slightest effect liz
reducing flesh.
No other class OF preparations
exploited to humburg the people
have wider sale, and in nearly
every case they are absolutely
worthless. The only ways the
department. s specialists know o.
safely reducing flesh are rigid
dieting and strenuous exercise,
and these. to be effective, must
be continued over a long period
Of time. IN manv eases it is not
wise for fat people to attempt
anv rigid reduction in weight.
In bulletin Just issued the = q
partment Of agriculture "warns
the people to beware of all such
preparations containing such
claims. for in the knowledge Of
eli druo SPECIALISTS at the presens
time there is no preparation that
can be depended uon to reduce
flesh in any marked degree with
cut doing injuries. "-Ex.

WAR MAY BE CAUSE OF
MARRIAGE SHORTAGE HERE

For the first time in years there
has been a falling off in the number
of marriages in Newark Last year
1904 licenses were issued by the city
clerk This figure will not be equaled
in 1914, although the total will not
fall very far behind. Last night, with
two full days to be heard from be-
fore the close of the year, the total
was about fifty behind the 1918 rec
ord. The two days remaining are
usually good for q dozen or fifteen
each, so that the year will not be
far behind last.
Each year for the past ten has
shown an increase of from twenty
five to 100 in the number of marriage
certificates issued over the year be-
fore. City Clerk Archibald said today
that at first glance II seemed that
this years falling Off, which was
principally among newly-arrived inn
migrants, was due to lack of en-
ployment, but as the slump was most
noticeable in the past three months,
he was not certain that the war was
not having considerable to do with
it
