ROADS WILL CARRY
LOADS SAYS JONES
Wayne Highways Withstand
Wear of Heavy Hauling in
Good Shape.

Wayne county roads are in such con-
dition that 1t will not be necessary
to issue orders against heavy hauling.
w. O. Jones highway superintendent
said today.
The period of rain and snow has
been of such length that the roads
were expected to soften. Mr.. Jones'
inspection within the past few days
have shown the highways to be in
good condition with no prospect of
showing wear.
In many counties, preparations are
being made to prosecute farmers and
teamsters who violate heavy hauling
orders.
Unless the dampness and snow con-
tinues with the temperature station
airy, there will be no necessity for
closing the roads of this county
against automobiles and heavy wag-
Ons, Mr.. Jones said. The present
weather is particularly damaging be-
cause of SHOWS of the night, melt the
next day. Colder weather would
freeze the snow and save the road sur.
face, he says.

The Million Dollar Mystery


There are millions in stocks and
bonds, and I cannot touch a penny
of it because the legal documents
prove that 1 am his daughter, except
for half an old bracelet, and my
fathers lawyers say that that would
not hold in any court"
you were born in St Petersburg,
my dear. Have the embassy there
looked up the birth registers"
THAT would not put me into pos
session. Nothing but the return OF
my father will avail me. And there's
horrible thou4Bt always of my not
being his real daughter"
There's no doubt in my mind. I
have only to recall Katrina's face to
know whose child you are. But what
will you live on?" Here was far
greater mixup than she had calcu-
lated upon. Surprising, after all, 1t
was only a resemblance, that the
! child was not Hargreave's, a substi-
tute just to blind the Black Hundred?
To keep them away from the true
daughter? Her mind grew bewildered
,, over such possibilities. The single
and only way to settle all doubts was
to make this child prisoner. If she
was Hargreave's true daughter he
would come out of his hiding.
She heard Florence answering her
question: There is a sum of ten or

| bank, under the control of my fathers

] He was always dropping in during
the late afternoon hours. Florence
liked him for two reasons. One was
that Jones trusted him to a certain
extent and the other was that she
liked him. She finished this sentence
in her heart defiantly.
Today he brought her a box of
beautiful roses, and at the sight of
them the princess smiled family. Set
the wind in that quarter? She could
have laughed. Here was her revenge
against this meddler who took no par
ticular notice of her while Florence
was in the room. She would encour-
age him, poor grubbing newspaper
writer, with his beggarly pittancel
What chance had he of marrying this
girl with millions within reach of her
hand?
The peculiar thing about this was
that Norton was entertaining the
same thought at the same time what
earthly chance had he?

within twenty yards. Jones sought
a perfect range. He would have to
find this spot again.

SATURDAY. JULY rs, 1914.


{ Astrology finds that early today the
influences are favorable, since Saturn,
Neptune and the Sun are all in
benefic aspect. In the afternoon Mer-
curry Is adverse in its sway.
The rule is a fortunate one for
those who seek new opportunities of
every sort. 1t is good, since 1t in
clines rsr ons in power to extend
thejE a. The sign is encouraging for
IN who desire support.

s,stl, " and advance notices are under
q rule making for success.
While this figure prevails much is
to be derived from association with
happy or prosperous men and women.
The stars presage honors. popularity
and progress for those who make the
most of today's openings.
Owing to the kindly sway of Saturn
benefits are, said to be derived from
dealings with landlords. farmers flor
lists and all who delve in the ground.
Mining Is under lucky omen.
The friendly leading of the planet,
which often has power to bring mis-
fortune, is held to produce thought
full, prudent, diplomatic mind. 1t Is
a favorable time for systematizing
business affairs, since constructive
and executive ability should be great
ly enhanced.
Shoemakers, harnessmakers and all
dealers in leather goods are supposed
to be aided by Saturn's helpful gov
crnment.
The omen is not a fortunate one for
signing contracts or entering into
partnerships.
Irritability and hastiness of speech
may be precipitated by the stars, as
trologers say, and they advise that a
guard be set on the temper, especially
in the later hours of the day.
