TnE GERMANS MARCH on.

One fact is coming out OF the
European situation In spite of the
strict censorship by the belligerent
nations. THAT Is that the Germans
are steadily advancing into Belgium
and That the stories of continued de-
feats OF the kaisers forces have am
other side to them which Will be told
after the smoke Of battle is cleared
up and the cables are again nernit-
ted 20 tell the truth.
In the circumstances It IL inevita-
bic that Germany shall meet with de-
feat eventually. but she has not been
defeated 50 far except IN vanguard
engagements which were unim-
portant
That she has been checked by the
stubborn resistance Of the Liege forts
may be accepted as fact. Hut there
can be no doubt thet the main armies
of the kaiser have passed beyond
those forts and are now menacing or
are In Brussels.

SYNOPSIS.

Bud Hooker and Phil De Lancey are
forced, owing to a revolution in Mexico.
TO give up their mining claim and return
TO the United States. In the border town
of Gadsden Bud meets Henry Kruger, a
wealthy miner, who makes him q propo-
sition to return to Mexico to acquire title
to very rich mine which Kruger had
blown up when he found he had been
cheated out of the title by one Aragon
The Mexican subsequently spent large
sum in an unsuccessful attempt to relo-
cate the vein and then allowed the land to
revert for taxes. Hooked and De Lancey
arrive at Fortuna near where the mine,
known as the Eagle Tail. is located. They
engage the services of Cruz Mendez. who
has been friendly to Kruger, to acquire
the title for them, and get permit to DO
preliminary work. Aragon protests and
accuses them of jumping his claim. Bud
discovers that matrimonial entanglements
prevent Mendez from perfecting valid
title Phil, who has been paying atten-
tlon to Aragon's daughter. Gracia, de-
cides to turn Mexican and get the title
in his own name. Bud objects to Phil.s
attentions to Cfracia. Aragon fails IN his
attempt to drive them off the claim Reb-
els are reported in the vicinity.

SAYS GET BACK TO YOUTH
Advice Of Physical Director to Tired
Business Men About to Take Va

Business men about to start on their
summer vacations are advised to read

ISOLATION has been posted all over the
associations building. 1t reads:
Forget your dignity, throw away
your staidness, and be a kid again
a wholesome, fun-loving, boisterous
dime-novel-reading kid-during your
vacation. Many of you men, when
youngsters, used to think it great fun
to sneak out behind the barn, with a
cigarette made of cornsilk and brown
wrapping paper. 1t won't hurt you to
try the same thing again. You won't
be able to smoke enough to hurt your
self, and there's no danger of con-
tracing the cornsilk habit.
Dime novels make good summer
reading. They are next to the Bible
for vacation reading, but take the BIZ
BILE along, of course. Many great men
read Nick Carter, Jesse James and

you men have come to New York and

"Aw, Bud" began De Lancey in
credulously; but Hooker silenced him
with a look Perhaps he was really
jealous, or perhaps he only said so to
have his way, but Phil saw that he
was in earnest, and he went quietly
by his side.
But love had set his brain in
whirl, and he thought no more of his
promise only of some subtler way of
meeting his inamorata. some way
which Bud would fail to see.
