The first diplomatic agent OF the
United States was Silas Deane, who

the spring of 17T6 he was sent to
France as a secret diplomatic agent.
He posed as a merchant from Ber-
muda and upon his arrival in Paris
sought an interview with Count de
Vergennes, the minister for foreign
affairs, who refused to receive him.

He started uncontrollably. So that
was what she thought! He felt him.
self flushing. He had wondered what
would be his impression of the neigh
borhood and its people; their possible
opinion of himself had never occurred
to him.
You think there's no chance of his
choosing to stay here because he
actually likes it?"
Not the slightest" she said indif-
ferently.
You are so certain of this without
ever having seen him?"
She glanced at him covertly, an
noyedly sensible of the impropriety
of the discussion, since the man dis
cussed was certainly his patron, may
be his friend. But his insistence had
reused a certain balky wilfulness that
would have its way. Its true I've
never seen him." she said, but I've
read about him hundred times in the
Sunday supplements. He's a regular
feature of the high-roller section. His
idea of a good time is \ dog-banquet
at Sherry's. Why, girl told me once
that there was a cigarette named after
him-the Vanity Valiant"
Isn't that beside the point? Be-
cause he has bseD an idler, must he
necessarily be a-vahdal?"
She laughed again. "Ee wouldn't
call it vandalism. He'd think 1t de-
cided improvement to make Hamory
Court as frantically different as possi-
BILE. suppose he'll erect a glass
cupola and a portecochere, all up-to-
date and varnishy and put orchid hot
houses where the wilderness garden
was, and a modern marble cupid in
stead of the summer-house, and lay
out a kite-shaped track"
Everything that was impulsive and
explosive in John Valiant's nature
came out with a bang. MOI" he
cried, whatever else he is, he's not
such a preposterous ass as that"
She faced him squarely now. Her
eyes were sparkling. Since you know
him SO intimately and SO highly ap-
prove of him"
mo, no." he interrupted. you mis-
take me- l shouldn't try to justify
him" His flush had risen to the roots
Of his brown hair, but he did not
lower his gaze. Now the red color
slowly ebbed, leaving him pale. He
has been an idler-that's true enough
and till a week ago he was idiotic-
ally rich But his idling is over now.
At this moment, except for this one
! property, he is little better than q
beggar."
She had taken hasty step or two
back from him, and her eyes were now

l full question in them.

poration, he had never heard Of Da-
mory CouIt, much less been aware

said then with icy slowness. Though

tree-shadowed path.
He followed glumly, gnawing his
lip, wanting to say he knew not what,
but wretchedly tongue-tied, noting
that the great white moth was still
waving it's creamy wings on the dead
stump and wondering If she would
take the cape jessamines. He felt an
embarrassed relief when, passing the
roots where they lay, she stopped to
raise them.
Then all at once the blood seemed
to shrink from his heart. With a
hoarse cry he leaped toward her,

II was greatly troubled with my
stomach, complexion was blotchy and

sharp pains and would have to lie

was the coffee drank at meals. But
when I'd quit coffee I'd have severe
headache.
while visiting my mother-in-law I
remarked that she always made such
good coffee, and asked her to tell me
how. She laughed and told me it was
easy to make good coffee when you
use Postum
II began to use Postum as soon as I
got home, and now we have the same
good coffee (Postum) every day, and
l have no more trouble. Indigestion
is thing of the past, and my com
plexion has cleared up beautifully.
"My grandmother suffered a great
deal with her stomach. Her doctor
told her to leave off coffee. She then
took tea but that was just as bad.

year. She travelled during the winter

SHOULD GET LARGER CROPS
American Farmers Might Largely In
crease Their Production Through
Scientific Methods.

Our Pennsylvania Dutch are good
farmers, but not so good as their rela.
tives in Germany. For every bushel OF
wheat Pennsylvania farmer produces
from one acre the German grows two
and tenth bushels.
His farm is small, but the man who
delves beyond the Rhine makes each
acre produce exactly twice as many
potatoes as do our farmers.
The man who bows to kaiser in
stead of a president extracts just a
half more oats and over third more
barley and about 60 per cent more rye
from each acre than does the improvi-
dent American.
The man who has but dollar can
live for long time on it, whereas the
prodigal can waste a $40 bill on one
dinner. The German has SO little
ground that he makes it work doubly
hard.
When the United States has 20O,-
100000 population our farm production
an acre will likely have doubled from
sheer necessity.-Public Ledger.

Law Of Sanitation,

Sanitation is a natural law. Nature
win not tolerate disease and decay
in her own domains. She buries the
dead In her forests with leaves and
vines. She cleanses impurities and
overcomes pollution in her fields and
streams. and she demands the same
effort Of men. When men fail to obey
these natural laws they pay the pen

suffer or die. When they do obey. nc

liness means health. and health meant

Tn ReducA Tax Rates.

Columbus.-Budget commissions In
majority of counties will seek
to reduce tax rates when the
final sessions are held. This informa-
tion has just been made public by the
state tax commission.
In most of the counties where ef-
forts will be made to mark the tax
rate down there will be meetings when
the budget commission is in session.
Due to local political conditions, there
are few counties where the members
of the county budget commissions will
make no effort to reduce the tax rate.

fiery sting on his instep. The next
moment, with clenched teeth, he was
viciously stamping his heel again and
again, driving into the soft earth
twisting root-like something that
slapped the brown wintered leaves in
to a kissing turmoil.
He had flung her from him with
such violence that she had fallen side
wise. Now she raised herself kneel-
ing in the feathery light. bUSh hands
clasped close to her breast, trembling
excessively with loathfng and feeling

dust from the protesting ground were
wreathing about her set face, and she
pressed one hand against her shoulder
to repress her shiVers.

He came toward her, painting, and
grasping her hand, lifted her to her
feet. He staggered slightly as he did
so, and she saw his lips twist to-

Her pale fright caught him. He
obeyed, dragged off the low shoe and
barred the tingling spot. The firm
white flesh was putting up around two
tiny blue-rimmed punctures. He
reached into his pocket, then remem
bered that he had no knife. AS the
