1RrAcnERY IN THE HOUSEHOLD.

= TREACHERY IN TIE HOUSEHOLD.
~ HE maid stole into the house, wondering
If she had been seen. She wanted TO
be loyal TO this girl, but she was
tired Of the life she wanted to be
her own mistress, and tie small for
tune offered her would put her on the way
70 realize her ambition. What had she not
seen and been Of life since she joined the great
detectives force Lady's maid, cook ship
stewardrss, fash woman, actress clerk, and a
dozen other enploymcnts. Her pay, until sic
secured some fat reward, was but twelve hun
dred the year; and here was five thousand in
adyanco, with the promise of five thousand
more the minute her work was done. And It
was simple work, without any real harm to-
ward Florence as far as she was concerned
Tie whole thing rested upon one difficulty
would Jones permit the girls to leave the
house?
One day Florence found Susan sitting in a
chair, her head in her hands
"Why, Susan, what's the mattcr?" cried
Florence
q don't know what is the matter dear, but
] haven't felt well for two or three days
I'm dizzy all the time ! can't read or sew or
eat or sleep
"WLy didn't you tell me? said Florence,
reproschfully She rang for the detective
maid. q" Ella, don't know anything about
doctors hcrcabouts"
Il know a good one, Miss Florence. Shall
send for himi"
"Do; Susan is ILL.,"
Jones was not prepared for treachery in his
own Household; so when he heard that
doctor had been called to attend Susan lie was
without the least suspicion that he had been
betrayed More than this there had been no
occasion to summon doctor In the seven
years Mr. IIargresve had lived here So Jones
went about his petty household affairs without
more thought upon the matter The maid had
been recommended to him one Of the
shrevdest young women In the detective busi-
ness.
The doctor arrived. He was real Goctori
no doubt Of that. He investigated Susans con-
dition-brouglt about by subtle though not
dangerous poson-and instantly mmended
The scashore. Susan was not used to being
confined to the house she was essentially an
out of doors little body. The seashore would
bring her about in no time The doctor sug-
gcsted Atlantic City because of Its mildness
throughout the year and Its nearness to New
York.
"1m afraid she'll have to 60 alone" said
Jones, gravely.

cedar Rust Controlled.

q. w. Boer of Bunker Hill, Berke-
lev county, is the owner of an orchard
which well illustrates the necessity OF
cutting down the cedar trees in order
to prevent heavy losses from cedar
rust.
In 1912, Mr.. Boyer had practically
no marketable fruit on the side of his
orchard next to large cedar grove
and the majority of the apples In the
rest of his orchard we're nuch smaller
than they should have been and were
of an inferior quality. His loss was
fully $4,000, attributable directly
to the rust. A meeting OF the Berker
ley County Horticultural society was
held In the orchard that fall and the
effects Of the rust fully observed.
Between 1912 and 1914 all the ce-
dars in the vicinity of the orchard
and within radius of one mile were
thoroughly and carefully DESTROYED.
This year. there is very little rust
Ia ..Ie orchard-not enough to cause
any appreciable injury while other
orchards not so treated are suffering
the usual big losses from the rust.
An object lesson of this kind should
convince the most skeptical.

Mnine,s Election.

President Wilson and his cablnel
are reported elated over the result
Of the Maine election. There is moth
ing especially strange about this as
Democrats are always happy when
.Progressives aid In the election OF
their candidates.
However. that reported elationi can
not be comprehensive in Its scope,
when the president and his cabinet
look at the election figures as they
bring a message anything but reas-
suring to the president. They show
that two-thirds of those who voted
for Colonel Roosevelt two years age
ire now in the Republican fold. This
fact must alarm the president as he
can readily see that the other third
Twill be in that fold by 1915, and ne
has reason to be convinced that the
return spirit shown In Maine y
that means Democratic defeat in the
presidential election.

afternoon announced that the govern
ment adheres to its decision not to

Since the British governm ant first

cradle pressure has been brought to
bear on the cabinet for a reconsidera-
ton Of the adv srse decision. Hints
that the governments conclusion not
to participate was in retaliation for

exempt American coast wise vessels

tolls were denied. Also the report
that Great Britain entered into com,
