concrete structure no one thought It ,
would break. :
We used to hear gossip of the Cav :
endish household from Emma, the
black maid. That was how we
learned that Henry Norman didn't
like Cupid. In fact, it was said by @
her that the first time the two men
met Mr.. Norman looked as though 81
he had seen a ghost, while Cupid s.
drew himself up very stiff and looked
at Mr.. Norman in way that made s.
her blood run cold. However, Emma, p
faithful old soul that she was, was
fond Of rOmancing. Still, we knew
that Mr.. Norman had tried to per-
suade Miss Cavendish to get rid Of z
Cupid. Miss Cavendish refused She
always had a viii of her own. They;
nearly quarreled over it till Mr.. Nor 2
man saw it was case Of yielding or y
losing Miss CaYendish - or her p
money. {

AS for Cupid, whatever he knew,
he kept quieter than ever. He Wor-
shipped Miss Cavendish. That was
easy to see. But people said he would
not hold his position long after the
marriage, which was only four weeks
away. 81
Now comes the astonishing part Of
the story. Emma said she saw Cupid
talking to Mr.. Norman. The two men
were at the gate of Miss Cavendish's}

for Miss CaVendish. She was OF that
fine metal which won's take the rust
of life, and sooner or later all her
sweethearts had received their dis
charge, But Mr.. Henry Norman was
different.
A year or two older than Miss Cav
endish, very soft-spoken, he was the
sort of man whose very faWlessness
makes one think there may be more
wrong with him than appears on the
surface. People sort Of distrusted
Mr.. Norman. But it was easy to see
that Miss CaYendish was infatuated
with the man. Mr.. Norman didn't
like Cupid. The two came from the
same town and, though it was not
likely that they had ever been closely
associated, Cupid seemed to know
something to the discredit of Mr.. Nor
man. At least, that was what people
surmised. Cupid never spOke-iust

Cupid had been a married man. Joe
Rogers was questioning him one day,
In the days before we learned to re-
spect Cupid. He asked him if his
wife was coming out to Little Falls
to live with him. Joe Rogers never
had much feeling.

white.

straight into Rogers eyes. Somehow |
Joe Rogers found an excuse to back
away. He never questioned Cupid
after that.
Joe Rogers was at work in charge
of the men who were repairing the

been called dangerous. People said
that if ever it burst the flood would

Warns of Leaks.

An automatic leak indicator fol-
ships consists of a number of small
cast iron boxes screwed to the bulk
head of each compartment and set at
predetermined distances, one above
another. In each box there is an
electrical contrivance connected with
an indicator-board either on the
bridge or in some other convenient
place. The board is fitted with mum
Der of small glow lamps of different
colors, and is connected with an alarm
bell. When the water rises to the
level of the lowest box, it makes an
electrical contact by which the lamp
corresponding to the height in the
bulkhead that the box indicates is
lighted, and so remains until the next
box is reached by the water, when the
second lamp is lighted. Meanwhile,
the bell rings continuously until
switched off.

NEW IDEA IN GOVERNMENT
Hard to Raise Objection to the Latest
Phase, Which Is Practical
Benevolence.

Here at last is a form of govern.
possible objection can be urged: Pc.
troleum has been made to yield gas.
oline suitable for fuel, and toluol and
benzol necessary for dyestuffs and
high explosives; yet the process is to
be given to the public for the benefit
of all.
The discoveries are important and
they must be practical or the an.
nouncement would not have been
made so definitely by the government
But the really notable feature is that
they are not to be commercialized for
individual or corporate profit on the
one hand, nor are they to be monopo-
lized by the government on the other.
We have grown accustomed to fed.
eral cooperation in agriculture, and
the seeding of the continent no longer
elicits comment; for the government
to make distinct contributions to the
processes of manufacture is newer,
and it opens a field of possibilities in
which it can render vast service.
Hitherto individual investigators have
made our discoveries, and financiers
have exploited them for private gain.
If, in the future, our government shall
be able to point the way to new devel
opments in scientific industry, there
will be a frank recognition that the
government really exists for the peo
ple."-Philadelphia Public Ledger.

Older BUT STRONGER

To be healthy at seventy, prepare at
forty, is sound advice, because in the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or CARELESS treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep your
blood pure and rich and active with the
strength building and blood-nourishing
properties of Scott's Emulsion which is a
food, tonic and a medicine to keep your
blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and
avoid sickness. No alcohol in Scott's.
