 Thank you. Jerry. I won't call the Haveys to battle."
 The night after she had flung her challenge down to Bad Anse Hayey Juanita stayed at the McNash cabin to be with Dawn and the widow. The next day she went with them to the mountainside "buryin ground" where | Good Anse performed the last rites for the dead

 Juanita turned suddenly with a shocked expression It was as if her little songbird friend had suddenly and violently reverted; as if the flower had | turned to poison weed. And as Jua- nita looked Dawns eyes were blazing | and Dawn's face was as dark as her black hair-dark with the same eX- pression which brooded on her broth CTS brow
 What is it, dear?" Juanita asked, and in tense and fiery voice the l younger girl exclaimed T wishes 1 war a man. l wouldn t wait and set still like Jeb's doin'. By heaven, I'd git thet murderer. I'd cut his heart outen his body"

weeks to years, and she awoke each new day braced to hear the news of some fresh outbreak, and wondered why she did not. few neighborhood children were already learning their rudiments, and plans for more build | ings were going forward.
 Sometimes Jeb came over from the the boys face was always dark cloud | of settled resolve. If Juanita never l questioned him on the topic that she knew was nearest his heart it was be- cause she realized that to do so would be the surest way to estrange his friendship and confidence.
 In one thing she had gained point She had bought as much property as she should need. Back somewhere be hind the veil of mysteries Anse Havey had pressed button or spoken a word, and all the hindrance that had lain across her path straightway evaporat ed. Men had come to her. with no further solicitation on her part. and now it seemed that many were animat ed by desire to turn an honest penny by the sale of land. In every convey ance that was drawn-deeds of ninety nine-year lease instead of sale-she read thrifty and careful knowledge of land laws and reservation of min eral and timber rights which she traced to the head of the clan.
 As summer spent itself there was opportunity for felling timber. and the little sawmill down in the valley sent up it's drone and whine in proclama- tion that her trees were being turned into squared timbers for her buildings
 Once. when Milt McBriar rode up to the sawmill. he found the girl sitting there. her hands clasped on her knees gazing dreamily across the sawdust and confusion of the place.
 We're right smart interested in thet thar woodpile. hain't ye, ma am?" he inquired with a slow. benevolent smile
 His kindliness of guise invited confl- dence, and there was no one else with. in earshot, so the girl looked up, her eyes little misty and her voice i'm pulsive.
 MT McBriar." she said, every one of those timbers means part of a dream to me. and with every one of them that is set in place will go hope and a prayer
 He nodded sympathetically. "I reck. on," he said. ''ye kin do right smart good, too"

 He gaZed at her for a moment, quiz. zically. then shook his head.
 "Oh, pshaw!" he exclaimed. "I wouldn't let no sich talk es thet fret me none. Folks round hyar haint got much ter do except ter gossip round. Nobody hain't a-goin' ter hinder ye. We haint such bad people, after all"
 After that she felt that from the Me Briars she had gained official sanction. and her resentment against Anse Ha. vey grew because of his scornful un. graciousness.
 The last weeks of the summer were weeks of drought and plague. Ordi- narily, in the hills storms brew swiftly and frequently and spend themselves in violent outpourings and cannonad.

WACE-EARNERS
PROTECTION
DECLARES THAT ORGANIZED LA.
BOR TAKES FIRST PLACE IN
CRISIS RESULTANT FROM THE
WAR.

Philadelphia, April 3O.-Organized
labor has been the wageearners'
greatest protection in the crisis that
has come to Americas industry and
labor through the European war, in
the opinion of Samuel Gompers, pres
ident of the American Federation of
Labor, who addressed the American
Academy of Political and Social
Science here today.
The initiative, resourcefulness and
self-relance of the wage earners eX-
pressed in the organized labor move
lection Mr. Gompers said. Through
organization they have dealt construc-
lively with unemployment, have made
effective protest against excessive
prices, have prevented wage reduc-
tions that would have had cumuin-
tive effect in dlsorganizing business,
and have demanded that construction
work by municipalities anE other
governmental authorities shall be
continued and more undertaken
wherever possible"
Civilizations purposes and ideals,
Mr.. Gompers asserted had been ruth
lessly reversed by the European war.
The spirit of civilization had been to
establish the sacredness of human
life; in an instant war had turned
the thought, the energy, the skill that
had been to glorify life to the task OF
destroying life.
The labor movement of the world,
Mr.. Gompers' continued, is the one
agency whose members have been
loyal to fatherlands in the time oil
peril and yet have with insistant EN-
phasis and appeal upheld the sacred
ness of human life ana opportunity
and the brotherhood of man. While
bearing burdens of the war they are
still maintaining standards that dig
nifty human life and are creating anC
directing influences that will have al
important part in establishing peace
and the constructive work that shall
make for greater justice in interna
tional relations.

force to reaction that always results
from the brutalizing influences of
war. 1t will be the most potent force
to compel relations that subordinate
all else to human welfare.
The wisest policy our nation can
pusue is to provide and to guarantee
opportunities for wage earners TO or

# KIDNEYS ACT
BAD, TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is sign you have
been eating too much
meat.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney re-
gon it generally means you have
been eating too much meat, says a
well known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which overworks the kid
neys in their effort to filter it from
the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your
kidneys get sluggish and clog you
must relieve them, like you relieve
your bowels; removing all the body's
urinous waste, else you have back
ache, sick headache, dizzy spells your
stomach sours, tongue is coated, and
when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full OF sediment, channels
eften get sore, water scalds and
you are obliged to seek relief two
or three times during the night.
Either consult a good reliable
physician at once, or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of
Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in
glass of water before breakfast
for a few days and your kidneys
will then act fine. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys
also to neutralize acids in the urine
so it no longer irritate., thus ending
bladder weakness.

 The Bite Palned.
 The veterinarian was angry. it is claimed, because Horr had failed to give warning soon enough of the ten- dency of the dog to bite and because Hcrr made no move whatever to as- sist him after he was bitten by the dog, just letting the dog hang on. To the veterinarian, who had put himself out to treat the animal it seemed the depth of ingratitude Homer F. Fierce the transfer man who was present, is said to have corroborated the defend ants testimony to the effect that he first slapped the dog to the floor after being bitten, and then threw it out the door and that Horr did not carry the dog out of the tent
 Dog Ready To Die.
 It is claimed that the dog was dying when Horr brought it to Edwards. and that the latter worked over it several minutes before administering medi. cine, and did not do So with any hope that the dog would live. All during this time Horr Is alleged to have failed to give Edwards warning of the dogs temper
 Private Wm. C. COrrigan, farrier of the machine gun company of the Twenty who prepared medi cine for the dog before 1t was taken to Edwards, is said to have testified that the dog bit him while he was giving it medicine the same day lt is also said that the dog bit Horr. Cor rigan is reported to have testified that when he saw the dog the day it was taken To Edwards (April 25) it looked SO sick that it might have died in from one to 24 hours. It was SO weak when taken to Edwards that it could not stand and was carried in a truck It died soon after reaching Horr's home.
