nlnQ ner. AND somehow, IN the myS-
ferrous way of offices, that story got
known, too. Nancy read it in the fac
es of all the girls, in Johns. He
knew!
And by now their intimacy had
dwindled to a shadow of friendship.
John no longer called for her, alleg-
ing the pressure of work in the office.
He stayed there nightly, after Nancy
had gone home.
''Mr. Bramwen wishes to see you,
Miss Graham
With beating heart Nancy followed
the boy into the general magnate's
room. Lewis was there with Bran
well
Sit down, Miss Graham" said
Bramwell 'You know Mr.. Feggis
will be back today and before he
comes voice was soft as honey
Il think you had better confess that
you stole that plan of the engine"
They waited, watching her face
like hawks.
We've got the goods on you"
shouted Lewis Electrically. You'd
better confess. You have been tracked
to the Neatfoot offices"
Eyes, 1 confess" said Nancy calm
ly. 81 was bribed to steal that engine
plan"
Before the triumph on their faces
had risen to the full the door opened
and John came hurTying in.
you can cut that OUT" he shout
ed 81 stole the engine plans and I
warn you that all the Office is talking
about Miss Graham being implicated.
Well, it's a lie. I'm responsible"
The look of triumph turned to
amazement. Then Lewis leaped for
ward.

ginning. This will be Jail SEN

"Sir, the engine plans have been stol-
en-, sold to the Neatfoot company,
and these persons are the guilty ones.
They took the plans from the safe"
What are you talking about?" de-
manded Feggis. Didn't the messen-
ger deliver that note sent you from
on board the Aquitane? Why, my
dear fellow, l took the plans. Had
an emergency order from the French
government and couldn't wait to ex-
plain. Just got home with the con-
tract" g.
But Miss Graham has confessedw
cried the bewildered BramweI.
"And Mr.. Peters Also" said Lewis.
Mr.. Feggis turned and looked into
the faces of the lovers.
II think" he said, with quiet en-
phasis, that if you will intrust the
matter to me can obtain very quick
recantation from them"
But instead of obtaining the recan-
tation he quietly left the room with
his aides.
"Oh, Johnw sobbed Nancy, '1
thought you. Can you ever
forgive me?"
But l thought you" suffered
John. ''Why, Nancy, what on earth
didn't you believe in that legacy?
1 tell you what, dear, we've both been
oVerworked and get little nerve
worn. What do you say to starting
that honeymoon tomorrow"
Tomorrow" Nancy gasped. ooh,
l can't possibly-that is, not until the
day after, John"

will be sufficient to finance the allies
contest. If it is used and more Is
needed we must either increase the
loan or there is always the possibility
of vast sums of our securities abroad
being presented to us for payment.
In that case we would be compelled to
furnish not only the loan but the
money to redeem our securities, max
ing a heavy drain on our financial sys-
tenn which may need strengthening be-
fore that time. If our securities were
pledged for the loan, we should be
in a position to protect ourselves A
bank customer with $4,000 in certi-
ficates of deposit who also wanted a
loan of $1,000 would be asked to put
up his certificates as collateral unless
the bank was willing to have $40, 900
of its funds at the customers de-
mand. If we had American securities
back of the loan it would be a sound
business proposition-though L do not
believe it would even then meet with
general approval as a moral PROPOSE
tion-and would make us safe. As it
is the country bankers are not going
to finance the loan. Kansas banks
will have plenty of use for their money
in the development of the state which
is going on more rapidly than is real
lied and the savings of the people
are staying at home where Kansas
gets the benefit

NOT A PARTICLE
OF DANDRUFF OR
A FALLING HAIR
Save your hair! Double it's
beauty in just a few
moments.
25-cent 'Danderine'' makes hair
thick, glossy, wavy and
beautiful.

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you cannot find a
single t-ace of dandruff or falling hair
and your scalp will not itch, but what
will please you MIST will be after a
few weeks use, when you see new
hair, fine and downy at first-yes-
but really new hair-growing all over
the scalp.
Danderine is to the hair what fresh
showers of rain and sunshine are to
vegetation. 1t goes right to the roots,
invigorates and strengthens them. Its
exhilarating, stimulating and life-pro-
ducing properties cause the hair to
grow long, strong and beautiful.
A little Danderine Immediately
doubles the beauty of your hair. No
difference how duh, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten a cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. The effect is
amazing-your hair will be light, fluff
~ and waVy, and have an appearance
of abundance; an Incompatible 1uStre,
softness and luXuriance.
Get a 25-cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store or
toilet counter, and prove that your
hair is as pretty and soft as any
that it has been neglected or injured
by careless treatment-that'S all-you
surely can have beautiful hair and lots
of it if you will just try a little Dan
derine.-A advertisement.

SANTA F,E WILL PAY.
Ripley Tells ArdmOre Mayor That
Road Will Foot Bills.

Ardmore, Ok, Oct. 5.-All claims in
cases of death, personal injury and
property loss resulting from the gaSo-
line explosion and dynamite disaster
here last week will be assumed by tne
Santa Fe Railway company, ADJUST
ments to be made by cash as soon as
the merits of the individual cases can
be determined. This announcement
was made today by Mayor Mullen fol-
lowing the receipt of a telegram from
E. P. Ripley, president of the Santa
Fe company.
The telegram says that the company
IS not inclined to wait for the judg-
ment of the courts in fixing the liabili-
ties for the explosion which took life
toll of forty-seven persons and dam
aged property to an estimated extent
of half million dollars.
Following out a suggestion i'll the
telegram the mayor has appointed a
committee of six business and profess
siOnal men to act as a compromise
committee" This committee is to re-
port all cases of death, injury and
property loss to the railroad officials.
George Henshaw, member of the
state corporation commission, stated
Monday that the Santa Fe company )
offer to settle out of court all just
claims will not cause the corporation
commission to abandon its plan to in
vestigate the explosion.
1.-The purpose of the investigation, SO
far as the commission is concerned,
will be to determine whether addi-
tional regulations Cor the handling of
gasoline will be necessary to safeguard
the public against a repetition of the
disaster"
City officials today expressed them
selves as pleased with the action of
the Santa Fe and believe that in most
cases a compromise settlement will be
agreed to.

bank of this city.
With their bank deposits at high
water mark. the Kansas bankers will

PLENTY of money for investment is

have learned through experience to
be sure before we part with it. Out
side of the moral side of the matter
and this is important in the opinion
of many who object to financing
bloody warfare of destruction-it is
not a business proposition that will

THE weakest point in the proposal
in my opinion is the elimination of

Personally, L have no doubt that the

the people of any country is loyal to

nations like Russia, France and Eng

cept in world catastrophe that
would demoralize credit everywhere

these be dumped upon US and to pre-

DOVE OF PEACE"
Union Pacific and Salina North
ern Differences Settled.
Gates and Crossings Are in and
Are Running Smoothly.
SANTA FE Responsibility
President Ripley Says Road
VIII Take ArdmOre Blame.
Huge Damage Claims to BE
Settled by the Railroad.

The Onion Pacific and the Salina
Northern Railroad companies have
fixed up their differences and are now
dwelling in peace and harmony as all
good railroad companies should.
Last June the Salina Northern
wanted to put it's track across the
Union Pacific at Salina. The Union
Pacific made a written contract al
lowing it to do so upon condition that
it would construct gates, which would
allow the Union Pacific to run its
trains without stopping at the cross
ing. When the Salina Northern got
ready to put in the crossing dispute
arose as to whether the crossing or
the gates should be built first. The
Union Pacific wanted the gates first.
The other road wanted the crossing
The public utilities commission was
called in to settle the dispute. 1t or
dered in the crossing at once.
The SaIina Northern then started to
put it in and the Union Pacific
ditched an engine at TIE point of
crossing. which prevented further
work Then the Union Pacific OBJ
tanned an injunction to prevent the
construction of the crossing. After that
was done truce was declared and
the two companies agreed to work to-
gether in the construction of the gates
and crossing. The gates were finished
first, then the crossing was put in.
At the time the locomotive was
ditched the Union Pacific did not have
a wrecker at Salina so the Sal1na
Northern loaned its wrecker, which
was used in getting the locomotive
back on the track. Now the Union
Pacific has loaned its wrecker to the
Salina Northern to enable 1t to place
its bridge across Mulberry creek in
position. The Union Pacific has its
gates and the Salina Northern has its
crosSip1 ard evervhody is satisfied.

bratiOn at FredOnia.
Capper Speaks and Takes Part
in Big Parade.

F'redonia, Kan, Oct. 5.-All Wilson
county today paid homage to the gods
of cleanliness and health in the OBJ
servance of sanitation day" The
celebration, believed to be the first of
it's kind ever held in the country, is a
direct result of the recent survey of
sanitary conditions in the county made
by officials of the United States pub
lie health service and the state board
of health
In parade, which was a feature of
the demonstration, a funeral process
sion marched, headed by band play
ing "dirgeS." In the procession were
several hearses containing effigies Of
various diseases. Representatives of
the tombstone makers of the county
acted as pallbearerS and local under
takers marched as mournerS, lament
ing the downfall of their Business be-
cause of the improvement in public
health.
Several floats depicted modern san
itary methods of protecting foodstuffs
and portrayed methods of preventing
disease.
Governor Capper, local officers of
the United States public health SER
vice. members of the state board of
health, city and county officials, con-
gressional representatives, several
companies Of the national guard and
the mayors of FredOnia, Altoona, Buff
falo and Neodesha also participated
in the parade.
Following the survey, a sanitation
contest between Altoona, Buffalo,
Neodesha and Fredonia was begun
and each of the four cities has con-
Quoted a cleanup campaign prepara-
tory to the visit of the judges. Rep
resentatives of the contesting cities
displayed much friendly rivalry here
today.
Several speakers, including Govern
or Capper. pointed cut that there is a
close relation between sanitation and
health and business and urged that by
improving the health of a city its res
idents are increasing its wealth.
DIR. A. w. Freeman of the federal
bureau, and DIR. J. J. Sippey of the
state department, have been working
in the county since early last spring,
more than $4,000 having been spent
by the United States government to
conduct the survey. Six thousand in
spections were made and in less than
a half dozen cases did farmers make
objections to complying with recon-
mendaticns. 1t is said that sanitary
and health conditions in Wilson coun-
ty have been improved one hundred
per cent since the survey was begun.
