EASY TO RID NATION OF

PHILADELPHIA, March 9.=-The
people of the United States can rid
the country of plague spots and
provide proper sanitation by eXer-
cising the proper spirit, in the opin-
ion of DR.. {. Wardell Stiles, OF the
Rockefeller HookWorm Commits
sion, lecturing here recently.
Dr.. Stiles characterized the house
fly as the national enemy, and as
serted that health officers and ply
sicians must educate the public in
connection with the dangers Of al
lowing this pest to spread infec-

"The hookworm disease is due to
the pollution of the soil and lack OF
proper sanitation" declared stiles.

invited to the famous fashionable re-
ceptions.
He did not complain, for he much
preferred to keep to his modest lit
tie place in the shade. Nor did he
waste time. From the first he paid
a certain number of clandestine
visits to Ludovic's office and pre-
scented his duty to the safe, which re-
manned none the less Theoretically
sealed. The safe was a huge mass
OF cast-iroL and steel. presenting a
surly and stubborn appearance, and
neither file nor croWbar could pre-

But what about the opposition"
asked Lupin, greatly astonished.
"Oh, it does not affect all the Sc
curities."
She flung open the door of the
safe. The shelves were heaped up
with portfolios fastened with straps.
She took out one OF them. But her
husband protested:

as they arc likely to go. What do
you think, my dear fellow
The dear fellow had no opinion
on the subject; however, he advised
the sacrifice OF the Rentcs. There
upon she caught hold OF another file
OF papers, and from this file took a
document at random. 1t was a bond

put it in his pocket. In the after

chance or upon any act OF thought
lessness on the part of Gervaisc, who
never let the key out Of her posses
sion. and who, besides, never took
away the key without first mixing up
the permutations of the lock. He
must, therefore, act for himself.
One thing FASTENED matters, which
was the violent campaign conducted
against the lmberts by section OF
the press. They were accused OF
swindling. Arsene Lupin followed
the evolutions of the drama and the
consequent excitement in the house
hold and he understood that il he
waited much longer he would lose all.
On five days in succession, instead
OF leaving at six O'Clock, as was his
habit, he locked himself into his
room. He was supposed to have gone
out. Stretched at full length on the
floor he watched Ludovic's office.
The Washington herald., 1915-05-02

he took the bond to a broker TO sell
and received 10000 francs for it
In spite OF what Gervaisc had said
.Arsene Lupin did not feel at home
On the contrary, his position in the
Hotel Imbcrt filled him with sur
prise. He often observed that the
servants did not know his name
They spoke of him as monsieur.
Ludovic always referred to him as
such.
Tell monsieur-Has monsieur
come"
Why this enigmatical designation
Moreover. after the first enthu-
siasm, the Imberts hardly spoke to
him, and, while treating him with the
consideration due to a benefactor,
took no further notice OF him at all!
They appeared to look upon him as
an eccentric who did not wish to be
intruded on, and they respected his
isolation as though this isolation had
been a rule laid down by himself, a
whim OF his own. Once, as he was
passing through the hall, he heard
Gervaise remark to two gentlemen:
Hes so shy!'
"All right" be thought, were
shy"
And he ceased to worry his head
about the oddities of these people.
and pursued the execution Of his
plan. He had acquired the certainty

difficult boring. inserted through the
floor OF his room piece OF lead pipe,
which came out in the Office ceiling,
between two projections in the cor
nice. Through this pipe, which
served as both a speaking tube and
a spyglass, he hoped to hear and see.
Thenceforward he spent his days
lying flat on the floor OF his room.
And. as a matter of fact, he often
saw the Imberts in close conference
before the safe, turning up books and
handling bundles of papers. When
they twisted in succession the four
knobs that worked the lock, he tried,
in order to learn the figure, to catch
the number of notches that were
passed. He watched their move
ments, listened to their words. What
did they do with the key: Did they
hide it somewhere?
One day he ran hurriedly down
stairs, having seen them leave the
room without locking the safe. He
boldly entered the office. They had
returned.
"Oh, beg your pardon, l came
to the wrong door
But Gervaise ran up to him and
drew him into the room.
"Come in, N. Lupin," she said.
You're at home here. Come and
advise US. Which do you think we
ought to sell out? Foreigners or
Rentcs?"
The Washington herald., 1915-05-02

On the sixth day, as the favorable
circumstance for which he was wait
ing had not occurred, he went away
in the middle OF the night by the
little door in the courtyard, OF which
he had key.
But on the seventh day he learned
that the lmberts, by way OF replying
to the malevolent insinuations OF their
enemies, had offered to open the safe.
ITS tonight or never" thought
Lupin.
And, in fact, after dinner Ludovic
went to his Office accompanied by
Gervaise. They began to turn over
the pages OF the books in the safe.
An hour passed, another hour. He
heard the servants going up to bed.
Now there was no one left on the
first floor. Midnight struck. The I'm
berts went on with their work.
He opened his window. 1t looked

batting percentage of 1000. His
fielding was errorless, and the locals
only hope that no big league scouts

future.
The visitors were a clean and

good ball players. They will be well

Smiths drive was a sizzler, and

through the air.
Galley on first played a strong
game, and his presence has bolstered
up the infeld considerable.
Every player on the local nine
worked hard and each one of them
is entitled to praise. The nine is
we'll balanced, and the teamwork is
excellent.
The East st. Cloud base ball team
will be here next Sunday to endeavor
to halt the winning streak Of Prince

result. Princeton is playing a par

of the cult of city folks who were
bent on uplifting the farmer" has
dropped out Of sight and out of hear

The professional uplifter is gener-
ally Of little popularity and less use
anyway. He is apt to be person of
one small idea, which he is trying
to force upon everybody else. The
word ''force' is used advised]y, for
as rule his idea is one for which
nobody else has any use whatever.
And now it is said even the latest
idea of this kind has gone by the
board-the model farm house,
planned by a city man, of course.
The verdict has come from the
farmer that it is about as we'll
adapted to farm conditions as it
would be to use as state capitol !;
that it's interior and exterior arrange

nothing much that he does want.
City people are the farmers Gus

talk to him intelligently as to what
products are likely to be most in de-
mand in any given year, because
they can see in what lines the mar

lines understocked. -.
When it comes to telling the coun-
tryman what kind of house he

look at the thousands of comfortable

them with some of the homes you
