Yet always In time of trouble and
stress they remembered the god who
had saved them and returned to his
worship, so that in season other proph
cts of him arose and erected a temple
and taught the people to bring offer
ings at all times.
Thus the image became the image of
the tutelary deity of the city and its
river, with other images to do him
homage and obey his commands.
Centuries passed, and the god still
maintained his place. His priesthood
prospered; his temple was never empty
And one day drunken sailor wan
dered into the temple TO stare at the
heathen wonders. and when he slipped
away the niche of the god was vacant.
He has gone on journey" said the
terrified priests and concealed the theft.
But the high priest sent several Of his
chosen acolytes throughout the world
to seek for and recover the image.
"How shall we find himT they asked.
"By a path of death and destruc-
tion," was the answer.
So they set out and found the sailor
who had stolen It dead in lane with
a knife between his shoulders. And
his murderer they discovered in Chi
nese seaport gaping horribly at the
sky, with rope twisted tightly about
his neck.
So the image passed from hand to
hand, always bringing with it death,
until some sailor hid it in his chest,
and when he had been washed over
side In a storm and his effects were
distributed captain bought the idol
for a curio.
1t was in his chest that Thomas Gal
Ion had found it when seeking a safe
place TO hide his precious papers in
time of mutiny and fire.
Now, at last, it had fallen into the
hands of one of the seekers, and he
took it to his little tenement room and
prayed to it and swore that he would
return it to its proper place in the TEN.

quent result Despite. its universal
prevalence there are many factors in
connection with the disease of which
the medical profession is in ignorance.
1t is certain, however, that it is most
readily transmitted by the discharges
from the nose and mouth of the pa
tient in the early stages of the disease
and for this reason children who have
been exposed and who have developed
couphs should not Ss allowed to asso-
ciate with other children.
Owing to their ignorance of the Sc
rious nature of the disease, parents
often endeavor to treat their children
without calling in a physician. In
view of the frequent serious compli-
cations which mean death, no risk can

be taken. The loss of little school,
ing and socability cannot be consid-
cred by sane persons along side of
death.
For eight years the death rate from
this disease in Pennsylvania has been
higher than for scarlet fever and this
is due largely to the ignorance and in
difference of parents in permitting
their own and other children to be ex-
posed to measles which effects all the
internal organs and leaves the mucus

Commissioner Dixon Points Out
Why Utmost Care Should Be

The dangers of measles and how
this little regarded disease may Sc
riously affect children are pointed out
by DR.. Samuel G. Dixon, State Com
missioner of Health. in his weekly talk
on health matters. The commissioner
discusses the disease this way:
OF the common ailments of child

number of people hold in contempt
more than measles. Familiarity may

mine, John Dorr had recourse again to
the pawnbroker.
That individuals curiosity was arous-
ed by now, and he asked great many
questions, which John answered eva
sively.
When it came to getting descrlp-
ton of the Hindu the broker could give
but few details.
He laid emphasis on the fact that he
sold rugs and that he looked like any
one of n dozen East Indians frequent
ing n Pacific port. He knew of no ad
dress.
With this Dorr had to be content, and
he returned to Ruth to discuss with
her what they should do next.
"If Wilkerson gets it there is an easy
way to get him." he said in the course
of their conversation.
''How?" demanded Ruth.
Have him arrested as fugitive from
and the warrant that Tom Kane swore
out" he replied.
Ruth considered this thoughtfully
and shook her head
at would mean our going back to
the mine and all kinds Of trouble" she
said wisely. Besides, we wouldn't be
any nearer the papers father wanted
me to have"
That is very true" John agreed
"We'll keep that in reserve in case
We discover that he has the idol. Our
only plan, then, is to trace this Hindu.
That will be hard job"
why not put detectives on the
trail?"
II don't think any detective could do
better than myself" was the reply.
But you can't do it ALL" she argued.
you can't be looking for this peddler
and keeping an eye on Wilkerson and
seeing to me at the same time"
1.-THE seeing to you is the pleasantest
part of the job" he said laughingly.
81 refuse to delegate that to any one.
OF course you're quite right, though,
about it's being too big an affair for
Il
Everett to join us. Maybe he can sug-
gest something. I'll wire him, and
then We'll take trip down to the wa
ter front and interview our launchman
again. He seemed to me pretty level
headed chap, and he'll maybe be able
to put us on the track of the Hindu if
he took a steamer for the north, as l
strongly suspect he did"
Ruth could not understand why the
peddler should do this, and Dorr ex-
planned that the Hindu evidently had
set great store on the idol, as he had
not only paid cash, but had given rug
as well in exchange
"He would know that the thing was
worthless as an article of merchan-
disc" he went on. "In the next place,
he wasted no time in getting posses
sion of it once he saw 1t. I have no
doubt that 1t is sacred in his eyes-a

USE COCOANUT OIL
FOR WASHING HAIR

If you want to keep your hair
in good condition, the less soap
you use the better.
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali
This dries the scalp, makes the
hair brittle, and is very harmful
Just plain mulsified cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and entirely grease
less, )is much better than soap or
anything else you can use for
shampooing, as this can't possibly
injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub 1t in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abun-
dance of rich, creamy lather, and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly. The lather rinses out cas-
lily, and removes every particle of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive
oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get mulsihcd cocoanut
oil at most any drug store. 1t is
very cheap, and few ounces is
enough to last everyone in the
family for months.
