Where slnbms dusty gold wero dafcng as they srayed
And crossed the threshold with footsteps soft and slow

For dainty garments whispered and pefumed laces sung
OF morning and of prngtm when all the world was young
SAW a folded paper all yell with the years
Perhaps the PRINT of kisses perhaps the mark of tears
Had touched IL oncefor fastened with bow of faded blue
Il whispered through the ages, II love you"

And breathing through the Stiffness heard behind me there
murnur-h half a love word. and half perhaps a sigh
The phantom of a heartbeat OF many year gone by.

SHAKES IN HOUSE; NO GHOST,
After They Were Killed Mysterious
Noises Stopped.

Barboursvllle, w. Va.-The mystery
that has for years surrounded the
haunted house on the Hill back OF here
has been solved as a result of Green
Simpkins, a Logan county miner, his
wife and his six children moving into
the house.
Peculiar noises have emanated from
the building at night and for months
weird stories have been told OF the
wraiths holding carnival there.
Simpkins. a stranger, didn't know
the house was haunted" Mrs. Simp-
kins had occupied the place only a short
time when the mysterious sounds terri
fed her.
She took a gun and went upstairs,
where she found the cause of the noise
In the maneuvers OF a dozen black
snakes that had taken charge of that
part OF the building. She was SO
frightened she dropped the gun and
screamed for help. Two men passing
heard the screams and they entered
and gave the snakes a battle. 1t was
an hour before all were killed with
clubs and stones.

CAN'T KEEP BOY OUT OF WAR.


I.ondon.-Norman Bruce Wallis, an
eightcen-year-old American from New
Orleans, enlisted as a private In the
British army some months ago Three
attempts have beer made by his fam
lily, through the American embassy, to
get him back to the United States, but
the lad il still In the army. fighting In
France with a Scottish regiment.
When he was released from his regi-
ment the first time and arrangements
made for his passage to America he
missed the connection" by enlisting In
another regiment. All the formalities
for his release were again gone
through, and an official Of his embassy
personally installed him In the home of
some friends to await the sailing date
Of the boat In which his passage had
been taken.
Wallis. however, returned to his old
regiment, where, through a misunder-
standing, ne was arrested for deser-
ton. Punishment was averted by Off
cial explanations. and today Wallis

VOTE YES" ON NO. L.

Officialdom has repealed the pri-
mary election law which was enacted
by direct vote of the people in 1912
and which the people refused to re-
peal by another direct vote in 1914.
Officialdom also attached the emer-
gency clause to prevent the people
from referring the repeating act to a
popular vote thereby locked and bolt
ed the door on the people.
In place of the Richards law, Off
cialdom enacted the present primary
law which retains the official spOils
system, which makes candidates in
stead of principles the issue. which
tends to minority rule and which
produces a confused ballot.
On the other hand, the amended
Richards primary law to be voted on
November 7 provides for elimination
of the official spoils system; provides
for open representative proposals in
stead of the secret slate; provides for
discussion of issues SO the people can
hear both sides. and provides for a
plain ballot. Be sure to vote Yes
on No. /, which is the amended Rich
ards primary law.-(Adv.)

WOODEN FENCES ARE
DISEASE lNCUBATORS


Baltimore. Get rid OF the wooden
fences and you will get rid OF rats,
hies and mosquitoes. So says DR.. John
ID. Blake, health commissioner of this
city. DIR. Blake believes that much dis.
ease and sickness Is brought about by
the wooden fence.
THE wooden fence prevents the prop
er circulation of air." the commissioner
said. Persons living In houses sur.
rounded by high wooden fences do not
get the real benefits OF pure, fresh air.
This Is detrimental to the health.
Rats, dies and mosquitoes carry
germs and spread disease. To do away
with disea Sc we must eXterminate
these. The dilapidated wooden fence
attracts bugs Of all descriptions. Rats
gnaw at the wood and dig holes under
and around 1t. These holes become
filed with water and in time are breed
ing places for flies and mosquitoes.
The fact that the wooden fence
hides all this dirt and filth is a power
full argument why 1t should be done
away with. What woman would al.
low dirt, garbage and other refuse mat
ter to collect In her back yard If she
thought her neighbors saw it?"

VOTE ..YES" ON No. 1.

Don't fail to vote Yes" on No. /
of the initiated and referred laws.
This is the primary law which the
people enacted by 2 to ] vote in 1912
and which the people refused to re-
peal by a second direct vote in 1914.
Yet officialdom repealed it, because
it cleaned up the official spoils sys-
tenn, because 1t made principles in
stead of candidates the issue, because
it provided for a plain ballot and in
every way brought the government
right down to the people. BE sure
and vote Yes" and put it back and

verdict must be respected.-(Adv.)
