Thumbs Down for Bouchard.
 Haggard and at bay. Bouchard faced the circle of frowne around the pol loom, the diningroom table of the Gal lands. The dreaded reckoning of the apprehensions which kept him rest lessly awake at night had come at the next staff council after the fall of the Twin Boulder Redoubt. With the last approach to the main line of defense cleared, one chapter of the war was finished. But the officers did not man. ifest the elation that the occasion called for, which is not saying that they were discouraged. They had no doubt that eventually the Grays would dictate peace in the Browns capital. Exactly stated, their mood was one of repressed professional irritation, Not until the third attempt was Twin Boul- der Redoubt taken. AS far as results were concerned, the nicely planned first assault might have been stroke of strategy by the Browns to drive the Grays into an impossible fire zone,
 .'The trouble is we are not in- formed!" exclaimed Turcas, opening his thin lips even less than usual, but twisting them in a significant manner as he gave his words a rasping em- phasis. The others hastened to follow his lead with equal candor.
 Exactly. We have no reports of their artillery strength, which we had greatly underestimated," said the chief of artillery.
 Our maps ot their forts could not be less correct if revealed to us for purposes of deceit. Again and again we have thought that we had them surprised, only to be surprised our selves. In short they know what we

Marta tells him of her teaching children the folies of war and martial patriotism, and begs him to prevent war while he Is at her home. She tells Lanstron that she believes Teller. the gardener, to be a spy. Lansiron confesses it is true and shows her n telephone which Teller has con for use to benefit the Browns in war emer gencies. Lanstron declares his love for Marta. Westerling and the Gray pre- mier plan to use a trivial international affair to foment warlike patriotism and strik E before declaring war. Partow.

NOTHING NEW IN JOKE LINE
Foolish Is the Humorist Who Would Insist That This Has Never
 Been Sprung Before"

A reader of the Docket in New York city cut out the item relating to the dissolution of partnership, in which one partner makes the statement that those who owe the firm will settle with him, and those that the firm owes will settle with Nose" and sends 1t back to us with this notation: This was an old chestnut when l lived In -, which was in 1855"
 To this charge we enter a plea of confession and avoidance. We con tend that the courts will take judicial notice of the fact that there is nothing new under the sun, and in our judg- ment the jokesmith is well within his rights In resurrecting joke which was old In 1855.
 The incident brings to mind the fol lowing story: "The editor of Mime sota newspaper back In the sos con- cocted the following: 'Yon Yonson put four sticks of dynamite in the stove last Sunday to thaw them out. The handles were nickel plated and only cost S10.'" professor of English literature in an eastern university wrote a very interesting article on this joke, claiming that it represented a distinctly American brand of humor and that it could not have happened in any other country or at any other time.
 But alas for the professor of Eng fish literature-for there Is nothing new under the sun. Reference to II Chronicles, Chapter 16. Verses 12 and 13, produces the following:
 12. And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was ex- ceedingly great; yet in his disease he sought not to the Lord, but to the physicians.
 13. And Asa slept with his fathers. Vests Docket.

 "Thinking of me-little mel" she called back "Of one persons com fort when hundreds of thousands of other women are in terror; when the destiny of millions is at stake!

had sought to trace it, only to find every clew leading back to the staf Now he was as confused in his shame as sensitive schoolboy. Vaguely, in his distress, he heard Westerling asking a question, while he saw all those eyes staring at him.
 What information have we about Engadir?"
 ''I believe 1t to be strongly forti- fiedi" stammered Bouchard.
 You believe! You have no infor- mation?" pursued Westerling.
 No, sir" replied Bouchard. Moth ing-nothing new!"
 We do seem to get little informa- tion," said Westerling, looking hard at Bouchard in silence-the com bined silence of he whole staff
 This public reproof could have but one meaning. He should soon receive note which would thank him politely for his services, in the stereotyped phrases always used for the purpose, before announcing his transfer to less responsible post
 Very little. sir!" Bouchard replied doggedly.
 There is that we had from one of our aviators whose machine came down in smash just as he got over our infantry positions on his return," said the chief aerostatic officer. He was in dying condition when we picked him up, and, as he was speak ing with the last breaths in his body, naturally his account of what he had seen was somewhat incoherent. It would be of use, however, if we had plans of the forts that would enable us to check off his report intelli- gently"
 Yet, what evidence have we that Partow or Lanstron has done more than to make a fortunate guess or show military insight?" Westerling asked. There is the case of my own belief that Bordir was weak. which proved correct"
 Last night we got a written tele- graphic staff message from the body of a dead officer of the Browns found in the Twin Boulder Redoubt," said the yiee-ehief, which showed that in an hour after our plans were transmit ted. to our own troops for the first attack they were known to the en- emy."
 That looks like leak!" exclaimed Westerling. "a leak, Bouchard, do you hear?" He was drowning and his lips were drawn and his cheeks mottled with red in way not pleasant to see.
 Stiffening in his chair, flash of desperation in his eye, Bouchards bony, long hand gripped the table edge. Every one felt that sensa- tion was coming
 Yes, 1 have known that there was a leak!" he said with hoarse, painful deliberation. T have sent out every possible tracer 1 have followed up every sort of clew. l have trans ferred dozen men. 1 have left noth- ing undonel"
 With no result?" persisted Wester- ling impatiently.
 Yes, always the same result: That the leak is here in this house-here in the grand headquarters of the army under our very noses. 1 know 1t is not the telegraphers or the clerks It is a member of the staff"
 Have you gone out of your head?"

BROUGHT BACK
 NATURAL HEALTH
The Facts About an Interesting Case Of Serious Female Trouble Bene-
 fitted By The Use of Cardui.

Walnut Cove, N. C.-Mrs E. A. Rothrock. of this town, says: About two years ago was in very bad health for three or four months.
 At this time l had a serious female trouble, which lasted severely for nine weeks. l got awfully weak and could scarcely go. and my doctor said ought to be in bed
 My two sisteIJ, who had used Cardui with good results and who now use 1t as tonic, recommended 1t highly to me, saying 1t Is fine medicine
 1 felt if I lived I must have some thing to help me, and as other medi- cines had failed to relieve me. I thought l would try Cardui, the wom- ans tonic. At this time l was almost skin and bones.
 1 seemed to improve after the use of the second bottle of Cardui. The trouble stopped. l suffered less pain. and began to get back my strength and health. I took five more bottles and got back my natural state of health, also my flesh, and could do my work easily.
 This spring I was run down in health; had overworked myself. l took nearly three bottles of Cardui, as tonic, and 1t brought me back to my natural state of health.
 Last week l put up 7S jars of fruit which 1 could not have done before taking Cardui. l am glad I heard oi It, and l hope other women will too.'
 Your case may not be as bad as the above, but even If only mild case, we suggest that you begin today to try Cardui, the woman's tonic-Adv.

ACCOUNTS FOR OLD LEGEND
Simple Explanation of tho Aee-old Myth That Surrounds the
 Golden Fleece.

In the legend of the Golden Fleece lies hidden the record of an ancient method of the Tibareni, the sons of Tubal, for the collection of gold The north coast of Asia Minor produced large quantities of the precious metals as well as copper and iron. Gold was found in the gravel, as often happens still in streams draining from copper regions. The gold in copper ores. originally containing insignificant amounts of the precious metal, ac- cumulates in the course of ages. and sometimes forms placers of astonish- ing richness.
 The ancient Tibareni washed the gold-bearing gravel, first by booming, which concentrated the gold into rela- lively small amounts of sand. This was then collected and washed through sluices having the bottoms lined with sheepskins. The gold would sink into the wool, while the sand would be washed away in the swift current.
 The skins were removed from the sluices, the coarsest gold shaken out,
 
 the yellow metal, were hung upon boughs to dry so that the rest of the gold might be beaten from them, and saved. The early Greek mariners, wit messing this process, carried home tales of the wonderful riches of land where a warlike race of miners hung golden fieeces upon the trees in the grove of Ares.
 metalliferous country of Tubal-Cnin is once more coming into prominence. The natives still cull the high-grade copper ore, and break it into smalls, to matte; they still work the matte in forge-like furnaces to black copper, which they ship to Alexandretta and to Euxine ports. They still make the famous carbonized iron that was cele- brated as Damascus steel because it was distributed through this mart to the rest of the world after receiving a finish by local Damascene workmen. These decadent methods, that give hint of the approved practice of the father of metallurgy, will soon become wholly extinct, for the modern miner Is studying the disseminated copper ores of the Black sea coast and threatening to rekindle on a magnifi cent scale the smoldering fires oi Tubal-C l-Cain.-Argonaut
