CHAPTER u.
A Belief in Siuns,

But Pedro walked rapidly, so that
the bear had difficulty In initiating the
pace. The youth had now definitely
made up his mind to take the new
course of action, for this second vision
of the beautiful lady had confirmed his
resolution, and he felt he must get
back to the others quickly, In order
to tell them before he had time to
change his mind. AS he walked he
kept muttering blue, blue!" and his
brows were knit furiously.
He had to pass some villas with a
semi-suburban look about them, and
then an elm-shaded street, where
commerce and conservatism rubbed
shoulders. Next, by switching off from
this neighborhood, he passed between
rows of frame houses, which dimin-
ished in their appearance Of impor-
lance and prosperity the farther he
went, until finally the street, il such
1t could properly be called at this
point, was fringed only by shacks that
leaned inquisitively over the cutters,
or braced themselves at q fearsome
angle against the slanting little gar
dens at their backs.
When these humble habitations came
to an end there stood an old barn
amid a stony field, scattered over with
paper, rubbish and discarded cans. In
he lee OF the dilapidated building a
fire was burning upon the ground, and
about 1t group Of people had gath
cred. Over the blaze kettle had
been hung, into which an old woman
was throwing green's from her apron.
Near her, his back against the barn,
lay giant Of man, with patch
over one eye. This was Beau-Jean, the
mighty Provencal, who at this moment
was engaged In carving an elaborate
design upon the base Of bear-stave;
while beside him lay the great animal
whom he ruled, asleep with its nose
tucked under it's paws. Two younger
women-Gunny, Beau-Jean's wife, and
sturdy Hermania, wife of Carlos (who
lay asleep near by)-were mending
their shoes. At a little distance,
Anna. the pretty and irresponsible,
was weaving garland of bright,
golden maple leaves, Rico watching
adoringly, the while he pretended to

"Oh. yes!" said Pedro, taking his
eyes from her slender throat and
flashing brilliant smile at her. ooh
yes, indeed, understand you'll"
Then please let me thank you,
said she, her interest in him growing
every moment.
But there is nothing for which
may receive thanks!" he protested.
Actually, she seemed to consider the
bears introduction sufficient. Fun
blingly he removed his wide, soft hat
and clasped II upon his heart with
both hands. How she stared! Wait
ing for him to speak again, she gave
her chin a tilt which accumulated that
heavenly line. Inyoluntarily he pic
tured drapery behind 1t, his artists
soul longing to depict it. Like a Ma
donna.
1T should be blue!" he said aloud in
a queer, choked voice.
What did you say?" asked the CIR
with a puzzled expression.
At realization of his speech his con
fusion became complete, and suddenly
his one idea was to escape her watch
full eyes.
THAT is to say, er-it was Mr.
Jones entirely" he stammered, q

well. I give you my most grateful
thanks, whether you take them OF
not" said she with a smile.
But he was now too embarrassed t.
rally and did what one often does
upon attaining a desired situation: be
came suddenly panicky and ran away
from 1t.
81 shall hold your words in my
heart" said he, and then, with a ges
ture half beseeching, half apologize
and wholly graceful, he swept his hat
upon his head, and, calling the bear
set off down the road.
The wording of his speech was ode
and unexpected, and the manner o.
his departure so precipitant that II
looked like a retreat. For as long az
he remained in sight she stood gazing
after him, her interest in him cement
ed by his flight. With sigh she was
scarcely conscious Of uttering, SO faint
1t was, she reluctantly turned in al
the gate in the hedge and went slowly
along the little winding path.

the saloon question. The democratic
party IL in process Of change by reason
Of new blood and new brains ana in
dividual sentiment ana understanding
Of it's membership.
It is often hard for US Of one genera :
ton to realize that this boy of 1s will
be voting eight years from now, that
the 17-year- r-old youth Of yesterday Will
vote in the primaries and mayhap sit
in the conventions four years hence;
and that the graveyards are filled as
we'll as the cradles; that voters go and
come and that progress goes on for
ever, evolutionary, irresistible.
Train up a youth in the way he
should go. That Is what Iowa has been
doing thru many years. Temperance
sentiment has been cultivated In this
state and has responded to the effort.
The schools have done their part since
school hygiene took up the trail Of al-
cohol. A hundred influences have been
at work. There is better understand
ing of health, and humanity and duty
and this teaching and understanding is
not confined to any one party in poIi-
ties.
Time was not long ago that the sa-
loon interests came to the conventions
of the stronger political parties power
full and arrogant. Now they stay out
side with dogs simply because there
exists in all parties a majority senti-
ment against such domination. It naA
not been long since the democratic
platform began with assertion against
all sumptuary legislation and was writ
ten under the eye of saloon lawyers.
The saloon lawyer has lost his predom-
nance and the democratic party its
shamelessness. Today the party which
should openly SLAYER at the feet Of the
saloon interests would cease to be a
party and become merely saloon
league.
But give the devil his due and the
democrats Justice; the sense Of the
present leadership Of the party marches
with progress and denies the booze
business precedence in the councils Of
the party. 1t is an astonishing change
to have come about within few yea.s
but remember that new voters are bora
every minute, that old ones die at the
same rate and that more new ones are
to be born and more old ones to pass.
Between the stork and the undertaken
lies the renaissance Of the democracy.

The. Mormon vee. in ,s4s.

The Mormons caused q great disturb
ance in Iowa when they crossed the
state during the forties on their way
from Nauvoo. Ill, to their new home
In Utah. There were land troubles and
threats of violence in Lee county where
the Mormons fingered for time: their
religious and social customs aroused
storms Of opposfion; and even In the
politics OF the state they caused great
commotion.
In the January number OF "The iowa
Journal OF History and Politics., pub
lished by the State Historical Society
Of Iowa, there is an account Of the con-
test between Daniel F. Miller (Whig)
and William Thompson (democraD
over the right to seat in the lower house
OF congress from the First district OF
Iowa. The vote Of the Mormons living
at Kanesville (now Council Bluffs) was
the chief point of contention. In the
cOnGr Gressional election Of 1S4s the Nor
mons OF Kanesville voted overwhelm-
ingly in favor Of Miller. But the de-
mocrats accused the Wings OF corrup-
tion in obtaining the Mormon vote and
declared that the votes should be
thrown out because they were not cast

other hand. denied these accusations

TINE 0LEO LAW AGAIN.

CONGRESSMAN Buchanan has a bill
which provides for the removal of the
tax on oleomargerine, both colored and
uncolored, and penalties both the SELL
er of falsely labeled oleo and the buy
er who knowingly purchases it under
false label
Sooner or later the oleo tax will
be removed or at least much modified.
1t should be. The law was passed at
the demand of the dairy states and is
a tax upon a wholesome food. 1t is a
direct tax on the consumer.
The serious fault with the oleo law
as IL stands is that it is intended and
does favor one natural product at the
expense of another. Butter is colored
and much of it needs it in order to be
attractive to the eye Oleo colored In
order to render 1t attractive mus. pay
a 10-cent tax. AS both are wholesome
products and both in large demand the
Justice Of the tax does not seem par
ticularly evident.
The thing is to prevent is fraud. The
pure food law aims to do that: but it
does not insist that food in packages
shall be dyed or colored or changed or
otherwise distinguished to the eye. It
lays penalty for adui,eration. If the
penalty Is sufficiently severe the adul-
teration ceases when the law is en-
forced. And this plan should be ef-
fective with oleo as with other articles
of food.
The understanding that millions Of
consumers are affected by legislation
directed against a clean, wholesome,
substitute for butter mainly because
butter producers protest against its
competition will sooner Of later result
in the repeal Of the oleo law. And the
sooner the better.

Mush and milk nowadays. But they
won't"
Most Of US grown folks can remem-
ber the mush and milk for supper, all
right, but We have to remember other
things OF those days In connection
herewith. Mother did not pay or 10
cents per quart for the milk. and we
had already had a breakfast OF eggs
that didn't cost her 5 cents apiece. and
a hearty dinner Of meat that didn't cost
her 25 cents per pound. In those days,
also, mother got a lot Of things, such
as liver and soup bones, for instance.
for practically nothing. whereas the
mother Of today has to pay about eight
reasonable prices for them.
Had the mother of thirty Ave or forty
years ago had to put up with present
day conditions, she would probably
have simplified her supper to bare max
ed mush. Still, there's no doubt about
the tremendous waste, nowadays. on
unnecessary and even deleterious vic
tuals. The demand 1s for three square
meals day. whe.cas =acthe. made .s

and breakfasts.
The fellow who bases his argument
on what mother used to do for his
stomach is Q goner. Thirty-five or more
years ago, . fellow could get up on q
frosty morning and readily stow away
three slices of fried salt pork. four
baked potatoes and a half pint Of milk
gravy, the same followed by eleven
pancakes garnished an inch deep with
maple syrup, and feel that mother
had merely done her duty toward her
offspring. while that same fellow per-
forming that feat today would be ripe
for the appendicitis doctor and the

may have done. then. and still make
the adult liver Of today work no bet
ter that would a dried apple. That
mother used to do this. that or the
other thing with or for your stomach

OLD TIME NEIGHBoRllNEsS.

The Chicago Tribune is seeking the
old time neighbor. Believing she exists
the Tribune finds her scarce and her
teld narrowed.
If the Tribune is looking for real,
old-fashioned neighborliness it must
needs seek among the poor for the best
examples. Real, helpful neighborli-
ness that hurries across the dooryards
and the fields bringing succor in it's
Own hands when sickness or serrow
OF disaster befalls, grows out Of the soil
of need. Lack of help or lack of means
to procure help in time of stress brings
out the old time neighborliness that
dourished in that old time when all
needed and mutual assistance was a
duty and common protection as we'll
as, pleasure. Interdependence is only
one of the names for neighborliness but
1t is the family name.
Just as much kindliness exists be-
tween us as in those old days of the
old-fashioned neighbor. We like each
other just as we'll only we do not know
1t. We are willing to do as much for
our friends and acquaintances today as
they were in those old fashioned days
but we do not get the opportunity.
The average person hires nurse in
sickness because he is able to do SO
and because modern science has made
the trained nurse indispensable as an
aid to medical skill The old fashion
of sitting up with the sick in pairs
Of neighbors who knew nothing of
disease or Of modern sanitation is well
lost. 1t afforded fine display of
.lelghoorliness but it added to the angel
census reports very materially. But to-
day in the ordinary community good
women are ready in helpfulness and
men anxious to be Of such service as
may be required in the assistance of
their neighbors. 1t is again the ques-
ton Of the need. We are interested in
our neighbors affections and would
relieve them if we might. Where the
necessity for kitchen work exists, some-
body runs in and washes up the dishes,
somebody dusts the rooms. somebody
runs in to sit awhile with the sick
when such visits may be made with
the approval of the physician. Some
man is always willing to touch his
purse.
The old time neighbor has passed
but the feeling that prompted him is
not gone. 1t exists and finds it's outlet
more unobtrusively and less demon
stratively than in his day, but it lives
and fourishes in eternal vigor never
theless. No man lacks a neighbor in
health who deserves one. Few need
lack neighborliness and kindness in af-
fiction. The question is of the need
and knowledge that the deed exists.
