The Heart of India.

India has never been conquered. She
is free, not with the freedom of an
Anglo-Saxon colony, but with a sub
tie, secret independence of her own
that eludes the naked western eye.
She gave her land revenues, the reins
of her government, her wealth OF
flattering obeisanceo and her soldiers
to the alien, since with force at his
back he demanded them.
She permits him to retain them,
since he seems a practical mundane
person likely to insure prosperous
government.
Into her heart, into the region OF
intimacy and close friendship, she has
never let him trespass. and she never
will.
MY heart" she says, like my won
anhood, is parda-nishin. Into its pres
ence shall the white man never en-

Latest Glass Substitute.

AS a substitute for glass in the
equipment of automobiles and many
other similar uses, a product has been
brought out recently in Germany and
is now being subjected to rigid tests
in various shapes at the scene Of war.
1t is known as "cellon' and has many
remarkable Qualities. 1t is almost un.
breakable by ordinary handling.
Sheets of this material can he bent
backward and forward many times
without breaking; blocks of this
transparent product can be subjected
to blows without showing fractures:
it can be produced in any desired
thickness. Clear and completely
transparent, light or dark colored,
notified or even black, it can be used
for the manufacture of all objects now
made of celluloid. It's chief advantage
over celluloid is its safety against fire.
A sheet of cellon may be ignited by an
open fame.

BANKER LOOKING FOR BOOM
Bumper Crops in State Have Focused
Attention of Eastern Investors
on Farm Lands.

Kansas may have another land
boom. The big crops during the last
two years have focused attention TO
the possibilities of the state from an
agricultural standpoint. Especially
is this true of the western half of Kan
sas, whore they are still harvesting
their 1915 wheat crop and shucking
fifty bushels of corn an acre.
Shousands of farmers west of the
99th meridian received more for their
crops last year and the year before
than their land cost. That one sea
sons crop will more than pay for the
land startles Eastern people and they
are now looking this way with view
to investing.
Land sales have been few and far
between for the past few years in the
state. This is due to the drouth of
three years ago and to general finan-
cial conditions The only deals made,
as a rule, were by local people.
farmer now and then would pick up
quarter to round out his farm or buy
Il quarter for his son. No big deals to
outsiders were reported. But if the
business men and bankers read the
signs Alright a change is in sight.

sales" said j, w. Bergman, banker
Of Ashland. I'VE are receiving many
Inquiries about land in our section of
the country. Farmers from Missouri,
Iowa and Illinois are asking about it.
While very little has been sold for
two or three years, prices have been
maintained and buyers of the future

the past"
western Kansas may secure sew
eral colonies next summer" said Wal
ter Kenyon of JetmoTe. "In fact | am

of land in my county. They are about
ready to come"
Otis l.. Benton of Oberlin says the
outlook was never brighter in north
western Kansas. 81 am confident that
there will be great activity in farm
and ranch sales in my section of the
state" he said. The past two sea
sons have demonstrated what the

HIS LOVE FOR GOOD HORSE
Ex-Secretary Of State Knox Relates
How Its Origin Was Revealed
to Him.

have always loved a horse and for
the reason for my affection. 1t did not
come from early association with him.
The mystery of my passion
was finally solved. My gentle mother,
of whom DR.. John A. Brashear, the
great astronomer, once wrote, she
was more nearly a wingless angel than
anyone l have ever known" being on
her way to the Pacific coast, stopped
several days with me at my home ia
Pittsburgh. Yielding to nay persuasion,
to the charm of brilliant October aft
ernoon, and to my specific promise
that l would drive slowly, she, not
withstanding her seventy-fve years,
went for a drive with me behind as
quiet and swift little mare as could
be desired.
With literal adherence to my PROM
Use Dolly logged along and we enjoyed
the day. Presently an alertness in tho
mare, which could be felt rather than
seen, indicated something coming be-
hind. With one eye on the little lady
in tho seat and the other on the one in
the shafts l let the latter have her
way gradually without seeming to dis
turb the former In a moment we
were stepping some, but not enough,
for with whiz and a cloud of dust
we had been passed. This was a new
experience for the mare. She resent
ed it and was soon in full pursuit
had not yet gotten fully into the game.
l still felt the restraint of my promise
and while hesitating what to do l felt
a motion at my side and turning saw
my mother tightening her bonnet
strings and in tones of excited pleas
ure she said. There, Phil, there is a
wide place; you can pass him there"
and we did.
l have never since doubted where
got my love for horse.-Former Sec,
rotary Philander C. Knox, in the Breed,
ers' Gazette.
