 They hurried out to the automobile and started off for the docks. The latter part of their journey was ae compiished under difficulties for the street was packed with drays and heavy vehicles. They reached dock number twenty eight at last, how ever, and hurried through the shed on to the wharf There were no signs of steamer there.

 Quest led the way quickly to the edge of the wharf There was small tug there, the crew of which were just making her fast for tho night
 Fifty dollars if you'll take us ont to the Durham and catch her before she sails" Quest shouted to the man who seemed to be the captain.
 They elambered down the iron lad der and jumped on to the deck of tho tug. The captain seized the wheel. The two men who formed the crew took off their coats and waistcoats

 They swung around and commenced their journey Quest stood with his watch in his hand. They were getting up the anchor of the Durham and from higher up the river came the screecn of steamers beginning to move on their outward way.

From the other side, of the steamer another tug shot out away, turning back towards New York Huddled up in the stern, half concealed in a tarpaulin, was a man in plain black suit Quest, with q little shout. recognized the man at the helm from his long, brown beard.
 That's one of those fellows who was in the truck" he declared, "and that's Craig in the stern! We've got him this time. Say, captain, it's that tug I want Never mind about the steamer Catch it and I'll make it a hundred dollars!"
 We've got her!' he captain ex- claimed. There's the ferry and the first of the steamers coming down in the middle. They'll have to chuck it."

It seems that after they had picked up the ball, a man came out of the side entrance of the house, saw them reading Miss Lenora's message, and shouted after them. The boys had sense enough to scoot. The man ran after them, but had to give it up. Here Is their description of him."
 The inspector took a piece of pa- per from his pocket. They all waited breathlessly.
 Had to drag this out of the boys, bit by bit" the inspector proceeded, but boiled down and put into reason able language, this is what it comes to: A man of medium height, rather thin, pale, and after running 8 short distance he put his hand to his heart, as though out of breath. One of the boys thought his nose was a little hooked and they both re- marked upon the fact that although he shouted after them, he used no swear words, but simply tried to in- duce them to stop. This description suggest anything to you, gentlemen ?"
 Craig" Lenora said firmly.
 Tt is very accurate description of Craig" Sanford Quest agreed
 The professor looked troubled, also a little perplexed. He said nothing, however
 Under these circumstances" the inspector continued, "I have had the house watched, and I propose that we now search it systematically. It is very possible that something may transpire to help us. Of course, my men went through 1t roughly when we brought Miss Lenora away, but that wasn't anything of search to count. If the place really has become a haunt of criminals"
 What about the ownership of the house?" Quest asked, as he took up his hat.
 The inspector nodded approvingly.
 'I am making few inquiries in that direction he announced. '1 ex- peet to have something to report very shortly"
 The professor stood drawing on his gloves The vague look of trouble still fingered in his face.
 Tell me again." he begged, the name of the avenue in which this res idence Is situated ?'
 "Gayson avenue" the inspector re piled. It's bit out of the way, but it's not bad neighborhood."
 The professor repeated the address to himself softly For a moment he stood quite still. His manner showed signs of growing anxiety. He seemed to be trying to remember something
 "The name.s he admitted finally, as they moved towards the door, "sug- yests to me, I must confess-we are going to see the house inspector?"

Guest Stood on Guard, unnaturally large, loomed up the great bows of an ocean-goina steamer. The tug was swung round and they ran up alongside. The man with the beard leaned over

 The inspector stepped forward.

 Do you hear that, O'Toole?" the other remarked, turning around. Get up. you blackguard! f

that about 2s per cent the gross business done
about the right amount the average store should spend
for advertising.

amount retail store should spend for advertising and
there must be figure below which store cannot safely

Mr. Parsons Il do not know of any retail store Of any
consequence which spends less than ~ per cent for adj

long with advertising burden of than per cent
Between these extremes lies the advertising expen

power-a power that should be studied BY every think

GIVE EWES ATTENTION
Toe Much importance Cannot Be
Placed on Feeding.
Late Summer Is Trying Time on
Breeding AninaIs--Necessary for
Best Results to Keep Flock
IN Vigorous candition.
tBy w. NJ. KELLY)

Il has been my experience in han
ding breeding ewes that one cannot
pace too much Importance upon plan
ming their feeding and management,
50 that by the time the mating season
arrives the ewes will be in vigorous,
heshforming condition. II is a seri-
ors mistake to have the breeding ewes
in a poor, run down and unthrifty con.
dition at mating time.
rhs late summer is a very trying
time on the breeding ewes; and UNI
less a man maintains the flock in
strcng, vigorous condition, deleterious
influences are bound to creep in and
cut down the annual profits. II is
very desirable at weaving time to
nave an abundance of pasture and sup
Elemental forage crops so that the
ewes may be able to recover their
normal condition gradually and be
ready to be mated as soon as the mat
ing period arrives.
The ewes that produce the best
lambs at weaving time are usually the
best breeders in the flock and should
be given the best food and care.
Right here many flock owners make
mistake by disposing of the ewes
that show lack of condition before
the mating season arrives.
Ewes that have sucked their lambs
we'll during the summer are sure to
be reduced in flesh at weaving time,
and every effort should be made to
bring them to a strong. vigorous con-
dition before the mating season ar
rives.
The safest way to judge the value
of breeding eve is to examine the
quality of the lambs at weaving time
In nine cases out of ten we shall FIND
that the best lambs belong to the in
dividuals which are run down in flesh
and show a lack OF condition when
weaving time comes.
Many make a mistake by feeding
the ewes ration Of fat-producins
foods to hurry along their condition

WATER SUPPLY FOR EGYPT
Possibility That Underground Streams
May BE Made Of Use ls Serb
Gus Consideration.

Writing in an Egyptian agricul-
tural journal, Mr.. V. NJ. Nosseri
presents evidence to show that an
enormous amount of underground
water in Egypt, which is both potable
and suitable for irrigation, is drained
away into the sea during low water,
and thus lost to country that could
use it to good advantage in extend
ing summer cultivation and also in
supplementing the supply from the
Nile in seasons when the latter is
deficient. Mr.. Mosseri urges that
the subterranean water supply be
developed, and proposes constructing
network of deep wells parallel to
the coast of the Mediterranean, at a
distance of about fifty miles from
the latter. He estimates that the
water drawn from these wells, and
that now lost to the sea, would
amount to 1,5O0,O00,OO0 cubic me-
tiers during the period from March
to August, and that the withdrawal
of this water would hardly affect the
subterranean flow toward the Nile
| during low water or the amount re-
quired by plants. 1t is claimed that
the cost of this project would not be
excessive.-Scientific American.
