 "Tm afraid so,' said Mrs. Schofield gently. "A very great one-yes, very, very great one"
 "Wen." observed Mrs. Williams after a thoughtful pause. there's only one thing to be done, and I suppose it had better be done right away"
 She glanced toward the two gentle men.

 Have you looked in the stable?" asked his wife.
 "I searched it. They've probably started for the far west"
 Did you look in the sawdust box?
 "No, I didn't"
 'Thcn that's where they are"
 Thus in the early twilight the now historic stable was approached by two fathers charged to do the only thing to be done. They entered the storeroom.
 "Penrodr said MT. Schofield.

 Nothing disturbed the twilight hush.
 But by means of a ladder brought from the carriage house Mir. Schofield mounted to the top of the sawdust box. He looked within and discerned the dim outlines of three quiet figures, the third being that of small dog

 Sam marched, not looking back, and his father followed the small figure implacably.
 ''You goin' to whip mel" quavered Penrod, alone with justice.

STANDARD FIRST AID KIT
Emergency Remedies Have Been Most
Conveniently Arranged in
Glass Jar

NJ w. Alexander, West Lynn, Mass
secretary of the national affiliated safe
ty organizations, announces that the
conference of the constituents of this
organization - large associations of
manufacturers - has agreed on a
standard first aid jar, made of glass,
which contains a considerably larger
number and variety of medicines and
appliances than are generally found in
railroad first aid kits, says the Rail-
way Age Gazette.
The jar is nine and one-half inches
in diameter, six inches high and COM
plete, with contents, weighs about
twelve pounds. Besides the usual ap-
planes and tools it contains eight
two ounce bottles of approved rene
dies. The bottles are ingeniously ar
ranged in the jar so that their labels
are visible through the sides of the jar,
and any one bottle can be taken out
without disturbing the others. These
bottles contain aromatic spirits of
ammonia, white wine vinegar, castor
oil, burn ointment and Jamaica ginger.
The jar has been made strong by spe-
cial annealing treatment, and it's walls
are plain, so that the jar may easily be
kept clean.
The conference board has issued a
circular of brief instructions to lay
men for first aid treatment of common
injuries and disorders, which includes
illustrated directions for resuscitating
persons who have suffered electric
shocks; the inside of the cover of the
jar is also filled with printed instruc.
tons.
1t is the intention to furnish the
jars and their contents at cost price
