were married we have been
taking other peoples advice
on how to live and what we
should do. But at last we
have found out that 1t doesn't

About a month ago we
bought furniture on INSTALL
ment plan drought the ad-
vice of some friends. Now we
find we cannot make the pay
ments, as my husbands sal
airy Is too small. We would
like in some way to dispose
of 1t. Could you advise US
in some way?

She saw him. He saw the look of
recognition in her eyes. She stopped
Kane hurried past her, not daring to
look back. He gained the entrance
TO the barracks. But he did not go
toward the railroad station, as he had
planned. Instead, he turned south
ward toward the border. He walked
jauntily past the custom house, over
the bridge, and flung himself upon
the ground. He was in Mexico and
he meant never to return.

Once out of sight of the village he
moved slowly for before him, miles
away, outlined against the horizon,
he saw the cavalry Of Santos march
ing. The day died and the stars
came out. Kane rode along the de-
serted roads
It was midnight when he saw far
off the winding Rio. Looking down,
he saw the camp Of the raiders at the
foot of the hill A high bank on
either side of him, rising into the
mountains, cut off all possibility Of
a detour. He must ride through the
camp.
He gave his horse a rest; then,
mounting, he continued, very eau
tiOusly, until topping the last hill, he
saw the pickets under him. Then he
put his horse to the gallOp.
Faster and faster he drove the stall
lion down the hill. He heard the
shouts of the guard, he caught
vision of men, risen from sleep, star
ing at him; and then he was running

u.
Albert Kane looked up into the sky
and searched the distant hills.
The summer sun was declining and
as the mescal went out to him he re-
allied his abasement.
For Is months he had lived in the
squalid Mexican village u miles be-
yond the border At first looked on
with suspicion, he had become COM
pletely identified with the villagers.
He sprawled in the adobe hut, an I'm
clean thing, like the creeping lizards
about him.
Few men have sunk to such depths
as Kane had reached. Now, deep in
his heart, an elusive memory stirred.
It was a memory of America, which
had once been dear to him, of a civ
ilized land where human faces looked
into his instead of the british peas
ants eyes.
What was it he was remembering?
He knew now. Somebody had
kicked him. 1t was the rebel leader
Santos, riding by with a hundred
troopers? And what was it had been
said?
The GringO is always drunk. He
is harmless. Do not kill him.
Santos had kicked him contemp-
tuOusly and ridden on his way. But
Kane remembered now. He remem-
bpred the WHISPERED COIlOUuv M
body knew that he understood much
Spanish, for he seldom spoke to any
one. But Kane had gathered that
the troop was to raid the American
camp at sunup.
Slowly the realization of this crept
into his mind He heard again the
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1916-07-29

laughter of the Mexican leader, his.
boast Of what he would do to the.
American women. Then slowly, like,
a flower, Dorothy's face unfOlded be-,
fore his eyes against the fading west.
Kane staggered to his feet and
looked about him. Tethered to hut
nearby was a fine stallion, the prop
erty of Santos, which he had left
there until his return on the morrow,
not wishing to risk it in the impend-r
ing fight, if fight there was to be. No
body was guarding it.
Kane crept toward it. He saw the
saddle and bride at the door of a hut.
In a moment he had placed the saddle
on the animals back and fastened
the girth.
He fitted the bride, hearing shouts
as the Mexicans saw him and OWNED
his purpose. Men ran toward him.
Kane cut the halter and leaped on the
stations back. In a moment he was,
away, galloping along the road that
led toward the border. Behind him
he still heard the cries of the stupe-
fed Mexicans.

No doubt many of our readers es-
pecially the women who are usually
so vitality interested in the two great
questions which have always meant
so much to them-p prohibition and
woman suffrage-have observed the
striking difference between the Re-
publican State platform and the
Democratic State platform. The Re-
publicans strongly endorsed national
suffrage and national prohibition.
The Democrats refused to endorse
these two great issues. The Demo
Gratis gave suffrage left handed
swipe by congratulating the women
for having it without offering to help
them in the national fight. When
resolution endorsing prohibition was
offered in the Democratic council it
was promptly laid on the table by al
most unanimous vote. This is most
significant in view of the fact that
two years ago the Democrats en-
dorsed prohibition after a bitter fight.
Their action this year shows that
they have abandoned prohibition.
Every one knows President Wilson's
attitude toward suffrage and they al
so know that the President refused
petition from the national w. Q. 7.
q. asking him to abolish the use of
wine in the white house. In the
Presidents latest speech on suffrage
at Atlantic. City. N. j., a few days
ago he side stepped the issue until
the women became much incensed
against his attitude and many of the
national workers and speakers de-
nounced what he said most vigorous
ly. Isn't it a pretty good thing for
our women voters and men as we'll to
stop and think whether they are 60
lug 10 cast their vote this fall for
men in a party 1.-THE Democratic)
who deliberately vote against these
great issues, and refuse to place
them in their platform or for men in
party 1.-THE Republican, who vote
for these issues placing them in their
platforms as great and important
questions and giving them their
hearty endorsement. Women land
men) stop and think about these
things and investigate these ques-
lions carefully before you go TO the
polls in a few weeks. Chas. E.
Hughes, Republican candidate for
the presidency and Governor Arthur
Capper of this state both are strong
advocates of both of these important
issues.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way TO cure catarrh-
al deafness. and that is by a chnstitu-
tional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is infiamed
you have rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result.
Unless the inflammation can be reduced
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forevever. Many cases of deafness
are caused by cattarrh, which is an
inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces. Halls Catarrh Cnre acts
through the blood on the mucuous
surfaces of the system.

night and as he guided the car to-
ward the front of the building where
he was used to leaving the car in
stead of putting his foot on the break
he accidentally placed it on the foot
accelerator which of course sent the
car bounding ahead. In front of il
was Baby Grand Chevrolet and in

he pushed the Chevrolet and the
stove and half of the front OF the
building, glass and all out into the

rolled out'in the street and neither

doubtless the means of saving Mr..
Cloud serious injury. as it was he es-
capped any injury. Fortunately there
