Definition of a standpatter.
From the Kansas Citv Star.

from the Kansas CITY star.
What is a s~tandpatter? From his own
standpoint he is the bulwark of society.
who is on the job to save the institutions
worked out by the wisdom of the ages
from the ASSAULTS of those who would de.
stroy them. The progressive regards him
as one who can always be depended or
to oppose progress.
Perhaps he might be described more &C
curately as the man who persists in .ight,
Ing his house by candles instead of by
electricity because he believes candles are
a worthy institution and should be perpet,
uated... The progressive, in distinction
from the s~tandpatter, looks on both can.
dles and electricity as devised for givins
light, and prefers electric light as meeting
the purpose rather better.
The standpatter feels that the constitu
tion and the present Industrial organiza.
ton are the final results of civilization
The progressive looks on them as toola
for producing results. The standpattei
reels that any interference with the pres.
ent social arrangements is necessarily
evil. The progressive would preserve the
TOOLS only so long as they seem adapted
to produce the best possible results.

gestion to amend the constitution or ia
provide insurance of various sorts fol-
workers. These changes seem to him Il
Interfere with the very foundations OF
modern lift. The progressive believes the
constitution and the present ppy
lucky Industrial system have achieved
some wonderful results. But If they need
adjustment to achieve better results he il

Preserving Foods.

A new method has been discovered,
says an English paper, for preserving
various food products, especially milk
powder, the idea being based upon
placing the substance in Il sealed YES
sci or packing case with inert gas, so
that this latter prevents the usual
spelling of contents by the action of
the air. In the French patented pro-
cess the milk powder is packed in
metal boxes Of convenient size, which
are entirely sealed except for a T.ar
hole that is left at the top. A number
OF such boxes are put in n chamber
and the air is exhausted by means Of
nm air pump. When this operation is
finished valves are opened which allow
nitrogen to enter the chamber and fill
mp the several boxes. When opening
up the chamber the boxes are quickly
removed and the pinl,ole soldereG be-
fore an %appreciable amount of air has
time to enter. In this way the con-
tents of the boxes are kept in an at
mosphere of inert gas, and the process
is thus practical from an Industrial
standpoint.

MosuI,s Fortunes.

Mosul, one of the cities of Mesopo-
tamia which entertained high eXpecta-
tons Of revived commercial Importance
as a result of the stimulus to be af-
forded by the completion of the great
trade artery of the near east, the Bag
dad railway, has been brought sud-
denly into the foreground of the world
war by the Russian operations, which
are reported to be duplicating here the
successes achieved previously at Err
zerum and Trebizond.
This town, of about $4,000 people, is
situated on the right bank of the
Tigris, 220 miles above Bagdad, and
just opposite the extensive ruins Of the
great Assyrian capital of Nineveh. The
great mosque with its odd leaning
minaret, is the chief architectural fea-
ture of this otherwise unimpressiye
looking city.
The Suez canal long ago diverted
much of Mosuls caravan commerce,
but the town is still a distributing point
for northern Mesopotamia. Supplant-
ing in Importance the locally manu-
featured wooden and cotton fabrics
which received the name of muslin"
from the city, the chief articl- of eX-
port today is gallnuts. gathered in the
adjacent mountains.
One Of the peculiarities of Mosul Is
the bragg over the Tigris, connecting
this one-time suburb Of ancient Nine
web with the ruins of the parent city,
One-sixth of the bridge is an ordinary
span which JONES the right bank and
a small island. Beyond the island the
traveller crosses the wider branch of
the river by means Of a pontoon or
boat bridge.
AS the high waters Of May are now
receding the Tigris will soon uncover
the silt enriched islands around Mosul,
and by midsummer there will be a
bountiful harvest of melons and other
fruit, provided the natives have had
time during their preparations for de-
Tense against the grand dukes army,
to plant their customary crops.
Among the places of interest pointed
out to the traveller in this section Of
Mesopotanlia is the tomb of Jonah, re-
the mighty metropolis, founded. sup
posedly, by Minus and the famed Semi
ramis more than 1000 years before the
Christian era, n to which the prophet
Jonah had been sent with a warning at
the time of his adventure with the
great fish"
Mosul has undergone many viCissi-
tudes since it's capture by the Arabs iii
the seventh century. Syrians and Sell
juks held it successfully during The
Tenth and Eleventh centuries, after
which came a ina flare of splendor UNI
der the r%ulerships of the remarkable
launched from Mosul the jiAad or
counter crusade against the "infldel
Christians" in Palestine.
The final accomplishment of the
Mosul amir's crusade fell to the lot OF
Saladin, son Of one of Zengi's generals
n a Mahometan ruler of many ex-
ceptional virtues.

CHAPTER VII.

hat night Duane was not troubled
by ghosts haunting his waking and
sleeping hours. He awoke feeling bright
and eager, and grateful to Euchre for
having put something worth while into
MS mind. During breakfast, however,
he was unusually thoughtful, working
over the idea OF how much or how lit
tie ne would conflde in the outlaw. He
was aware Of Euchre's scrutiny.
WAL began the old man, at last,
how'd you make out with the NdY"
k1d?" inquired Duane, tentatively.
Jennie. I mean. What d you an she
talk about""
we had a little chat. You know you
wanted me to cheer her up"
Euchre sat with coffee cup poised
and narrow eyes studying Duane.

Buck, it was plain to me tibet you'd

kinder prodigal Of cheer an hope. I'd

more'n ever would come true"
Huchre paused, and. as thede seemed
no reply forthcoming. he went on:

CHAPTER VIII.

What a contrast, Duane thought, the
evening of that day presented to the
state of his soul! The sunset fingered
in golden glory over the distant Mexs-
can mountains; twilight came slowly;
a faint breeze blew from the river cool
and sweet; the late cooling Of a dove
and the tinkle of a cowbell were the
only, sounds; a serene and tranquil
peace lay owe the valley.
Inside Duane's body there was strife.
This third facing of a desperate man
had thrown him off his balance. It had
not been fatal, but 1t threatened so
much. The better side Of his nature
seemed to urge him to die rather than
to go on fighting or opposing ignorant,
unfortunate, savage men. But the per-
versity of him was so great that II
dwarfed reason, conscience. He could
not resist 1t. He felt something dying
In him. He suffered. Hope seemed far
away: Despair had seized upon him and
was driving him into a reckless mood
when he thought of Jennie.
he a forgotten her. He had for
gotten that he had promised to save
her. He had forgotten that>he meant to
snuff oat as many lives as might stand
between her m freedom. The very re-
membrance sheered off his morbid in
trospection. She made a difference
How strange for him to realize thati
He felt gratefuI to her. He had been
forced into outiawry; she had been
stolen from her people and carried into
captivity. They had met In the river
f~astness, he to instil hope into her des-
pairing life. she TO sbe the means, per-
haps, OF keeping him from sinking to
the level Of her captors. He became
conscious Of q strong and beating desire
to see her, talk with her.
These thoughts had run through his
mind while on his way to Mrs. BANDS
house. He had left Euchre go on ahead
because he wanted more time to COM
pose himself. Darkness had about set in
when he reached his destination. There
was no light in the house. Mrs. Bland
was waiting for him on tho porch.
