MARX GRAVES WITH NAPLES
Plan Proposed to Honor Canada's
Dead Who Have Fallen In
Flanders.

How to mark permanently the rest
ing places of the thousands of Cana
dian soldiers who have fallen in Flan-
ders and in France is a matter to
which the people of the dominion have
given considerable thought.
From member of the Overseas
club comes the happy suggestion that
since the maple leaf is the emblem of
Canada, maple trees be planted over
the isolated graves and along the
roads leading to the cemeteries. He
has already sent millions of seeds to
France, and is to send more.
The species chosen is the sugar
maple, and so France in time will
have a beautiful memorial of the
aliens who gave their lives fer her,
Youths Companion.

CHAPTER XIV.

watching the door. Mr.. Doremus was
walking in with Jonas Hassingbury,
talking. Both were in high good
humor, the attorney because of his
pleasant social success, the Branford
farmer because of the growing prob
ability of his good fortune. They stood
for moment looking about the studio,
and then Mr.. Doremus pointed to the
clock

that! It's after twelve o'clock already"
Permit me to congratulate you, sir,
upon your accession to the Bonistelie
fortune! 1t is my practice, as you
know, never to take sides. Er-that

sanship. So long, however, as fate has
decided in your favor, take pleasure

Jonas Hassingbury, meanwhile, had
taken out his watch, and was compar-
ing it with the clock. "Er-of course

Curve in Writing
 Sends Him to Iail

ATLANTA. Ga.-An unlucky curve in writing his name caused George E. Lawhon, dog fancier. of Carters- vile, to be convicted in the United States District Court of using the mails to defraud. Today he started serving sentence of one year. Lawhon owned his signature on q check, a flourish reposing at the end of his name. Assistant United States District Attorney Henley showed letters with the same flour ish, alleged to have been written by Lawhon to J. II. Murray, a Brighton, Tenn, rural mail carrier. in scheme to collect for hunting dogs that he never delivered
 The jury decided that the sigma lures were the same, and brought in a verdict of guilty, Prior to this stage of the case the prosecution could not show that Lawhon had written the letters, since he had de nied them. It looked for a time as if the defendant would go free.
