q am tired of it ALL" spoke Myra
Cloyd, and she sighed and really
looked weary and Disconnected.
Mrs. Werner, her aunt, glanced at
her quickly, shrewdly. She traced
signs of worry in the fair guest she
had entertained through a busy social
season.
"You need a rest, a change, DEAR"
she remarked soothingly.
1.-THE change, perhaps, yes" admit
ted Myra. Rest? oh, just the re-
verse of that, dear aunty. l can never
thank you for all the trouble you have
had to give me the grand time of my
life, but there is so much hollowness
and insincerity to all the people |
have met, that l am not only disap-
pointed, but weary of it all"
Il am what they call a worldly wom-
an, Myra," spoke Mrs. Werner grave
ly," but down in my heart of hearts
commend your point of view. My
thought has not been to merge you
into the social whirl, but to give you
the experience that will enable you to
contrast the varied issues of life. l

"Aunty, dear" broke in Myra pas

Good, kind soul that you are! spend
a week or two with Aunt Martha at
Rushville. 1t will quiet you and settle
down your ideas after the turbulence
of the past three months"
Myra had never been to Rushville,
but she had twice received a visit
from Aunt Martha when her father
was alive. She recalled the plain
faced but charitable-hearted old lady
anticipating guidance and help in
framing up her life work, for Myra
felt that she had a call to assist in

NEW IDEA IN ExcAVATING
Hydraulic Mining Cartridge IS Said TO
Be the Most Powerful Yet
Devised.

It is often hard, and sometimes dan
gerous, to use ordinary explosives for
mining and excavating in confined
spaces, a fact that has led to the de-
velopment Of the hydraulic mining
cartridge as a safe and effective sub
stitute. The cartridge consists Of a
steel cylinder containing numerous
small pistons that expand when water
is injected into them with a hand
pump. After drilling a deep enough
hole, the workmen insert the cylinder,
and then set to work at the hand
pump. The tiny pistons expand until
their free extremities bear against the
mass of rock with constantly-increas
ing force, and the rock is gradually
fractured under the tremendous pres
sure. The operation, 1t is said, is not
only cheaper than the ordinary blast
but disintegrates a larger area Of rock

Why the starn rwlnkln.

Although the t~winkling OF the stars
is commonly referred to, they do not
twinkle at all. The stars are really
suns that throw out light, Just as our
sun lights the earth.
When the rays Of light from the
stars strike the air which surrounds
the earth they have to pierce many
little particles which are always float
ing about in the atmosphere. 1t is this
interference between US and the
source Of light which gives the ap-
pearance of twinkling.
On certain nights the light of the
stars will appear 80 bright and clear
as to attract particular attention. This
is because the air is so clear there IL
less interference than usual with tbs
rays OF light in reaching the earth.

the big crowded Union depot.
"Rushville," she spoke, approaching
one Of the many ticket selling win
dows, received a bit Of stamped card
board and was soon past the iron
guard gate and selecting a seat on the
shady side of the car.
Myra let her mind drift. Then she
must have dozed. 1t was quite dusk
and the car lamps we're just being
lighted when the train slowed up and
the conductor s'Lg out:
"Rushville."
Myra caught up her satchel and
stepped out upon the platform of a
little flag station. 1t was surrounded
by freight trucks, there we're no houses
in sight, only a crippled fagman, whom
she approached. This train had gone
on.

THE DAIRY COW Is COMING

Never until this year has the stat
of Missouri and the dairy interests of
the state awakened to the Importance
of the dairy COW. At the Missouri
State Fair at Sedalia, September rs
to October. 2, there will be held the
greatest butter contest ever staged in
the Union, and for a purse Of $500,
made up by the creamery men Of Mis-

that is necessary is a creamery GER

strange animation. Come on, ma'am,
III help you. Oh, yes, indeed, ! will"
He laughed in a queer, terrifying
way. but Myra was willing to trust
to any guidance to reach her aunt.
The man kept ahead of her. Abruptly
their course was blocked by a high
stoekade. The nan lined this, At
its end was a great gate which stood
barely open. He pushed Myra through
the aperture. She shrank back, but he
seized her arm and quite forced her
into one of many small buildings.
There a light burned. Myra gazed
about her in CONSERVATION. 1t held
half a dozen cots and as many reclin-
ing chairs. Each was filled with an
invalid-the ~bloodless faces and Ian
guild poses told this much.
"Ahl" spoke a sudden brisk voice,
you come back" and Myra noticed
the speaker as a professional looking
young man, who at once called some
body from outside. Two men appeared
and bore her guide away against his
will. The young man stared strangely
at Myra.
Il cannot understand why you are
here" he spoke, and trembling, fear
filed Myra explained. The young man
looked serious and troubled.
There are two Rushvilles accessi-
BILE from the city Union depot" he
said, ION different railroad lines, and

one. The Rushville just beyond here

broken out and l I'm Doctor Willis, in
charge of the hospital here. ! am very
sorry, miss, but you have been ex-
posed to the disease through the folly
Of that escaped patient, and will have

It came upon Myra with a shock, but
never was physician more gentle and
reassuring than her courteous, intelli-
gent host. He explained to her that
the law exacted her isolation for four
teen days. He assured her, however,
that she should have a room in the
house himself and his sisters occupied
Il shall give you preventive medi-
cines," he explained, land from your
general appearance l believe you will
be immune from infection, as l am

The sisters Of the doctor we're like
~warm.hearted sisters, indeed, to Myra.
They gave her a room by herself. The
next day she had recovered her nat
ural poise and became interested in
their helpful duties They took care Of
their brothers ~dispensary, nursed the
convalescents, and Myra felt really
happy and contented as they gave her
some cloth to make bandages of, and
became a helper in good work Of the
stockade hospital.
1T is my first experience In actual
work among the poor and SICK" Myra
told DR.. Willis one evening. Yours
is a blessed task"
She regarded him with genuine ad-
miration. His tir~elessness, patience
and skill had made him a model in
her eyes.
"You are free to leave US tomor-
row." he spoke, and his tones e re-
gretful. ut will cheer my sisters to

Myra in her clear, truthful way. "They

And from Myra's rough experience

GERMANY HURTs ITSELF.

One of the most damaging adniS- sions that has been made by the Ger man empire since the opening Of the war Is it's situation as to foodstuffs. It has been consistently maintained from the very start that through prep aratfon and the resources of the eIn- pire and it's ally that it would be i'm possible for the enemy to have any serious effect upon it's food supplies.
 When however. Germany informed the United States that it would be willing to rescind it's war zone orders relative to shipping if Great Britain would agree not to interfers with the sending of foodstuffs to the non com batarts of Germany, q, serious revela- ton was made as to the conditions now and to be expected. This had to a de- gree been indicated by the government taking charge of all supplies and re- striCting the use of food to stipulated amounts. The attempt to exert a pres sure upon Great Britain through this country unruistakaolY disclosed the weakness. which must be recognized as a vital one.
 It has put Great Britain in pos- session of well established facts. which might otherwise only have been sur missed. That 1t has given Great Bri- tain the cue for new action cannot heIp being recognized, but just what it will produce in the way of keeping foreign food supplies away from Germany re- mains to be seen. Such have not az yet been shut off since GeruEany's ports are not blocka1ed except as tc contraband. No policy has been adopt ed for the starvation of Germany and if that condition should follow it must be recognized as coming from the ac- ton and revelations which Germany has recently made.
