It did not seem a very happy idea,
but the chief difficulty had lain in the
fact that John had always stuck to
his fiancee's side and Harold to his.
| IL only either of the girls could have
been alone with the man she really
loved, feminine subtlety might have
| induced him to speak out. But moth
ing had been accomplished, and the
| wedding day looming so near, fright
ened each of the girls. Suppose she
chose the wrong man, making the dis
covery after marriage instead OF be-
fore! Lefty knew that she would do
something desperate unless she could
find out, while Peggy dreamed of run
ming away.
Neither knew her own mind and
neither dared hint anything to her
sweetheart.
The boys arrived in due course, and
the stroll down town was a dismal
repetition of many such strolls Peg
gy was desperately unhappy and, to
crown her woe, the boys obstinately
refused to join in the game of gen.
eral post" which had been devised.
Harold sat down with Peggy and John

Suddenly kissing sound was heard

FIRE." screamed somebody.
Instantly the theater was in panic.
Peggy felt herself knocked from her
seat. A man was trampling on her.
Women were screaming. She tried to
flee, but, damned in the crowd, she
fell to the ground in half-swoon.
Suddenly she felt herself lifted in
q mans arms. He raised her as light
ly as II she were child and, holding
her before him, fought his way
through the happily diminishing press.
When the girl opened her eyes she
was lying outside and somebody was
bending over her.
IL was John, and Peggy twined her
arms about his neck and chung to him.
His kisses were warm upon her lips.
Dearest! Thank God!" he was say
ing over and over again. =
And she returned his kisses, for she
knew at last, and with only a faint
contempt for Harold's cowardice, she
resigned herself to the sweetness of
their loves renewal.
But suddenly she saw Lefty before
her. Harold's arm was about her
waist and on the girls face was the
shyness and TRANSPORTATION of loves
avowal.
The crowd was dispensing and the
four looked at each other in a mixture
Of emotions. Then suddenly tho girls
laughed and fell on each others necks.
And the mems hands met in a wise
like clasp.
1t was a very happy pair CT couples
that strolled homeward in the dark

MEANT TO CONSERVE HEALTH
Laws Laid Down by Moses Acknowl.
edged to Be Excellent Sanitary
Regulations.

There has been gathered a collec-
ton of facts to prove that the sanitary
laws of Moses were not only on line
with the modern rules Of hygiene, but
in some cases in advance of them.
The Jew. thousands of years before
Christ, settling in semitropical coun-
try, was forbidden to eat pork or shell
fish. and milk was designated as a
source of contagion. In the Talmud q
method of slaughtering animals was
prescribed which Is acknowledged to.
day in our markets as the most SAM.
tary.
Five thousand years before Koch
gave to the world the results of his re-
searches in bacteriology, the Mosaic
law pointed out the danger to man
from tuberculosis in cattle, but did not
forbid infected poultry as food. 1t was
only few years ago that German spe-
cialists discovered that fowl tubercu-
losis was harmless to man.
The Mosaic law also enforced the
isolation of patients with contagious
diseases and the burial of the dead
outside all cities. These hints the
Gentle world did not fully accept un.
til century or two ago.
The wise law-giver prescribed not
only fasting at certain periods of the
year. but the removal vi whole fam.
lilies in summer out to camps, where
for a time they could live close to
nature. Many Of the laws OF Moses
were prescriptions intended for the
health Of both mind and body.

DISPERSED GUNS BETTER
THAN BIG COAST FORTS

Experience in the present war, not.
ably at Liege and Antwerp, has led
many military experts to the conclu.
sion that coast defense guns should
not be concentrated in forts, but dis
persed and concealed. Howitzers Of
IL inches and over are pronounced
preferable to other guns. Money
spent on ordnance is more effective
than money spent for armor; light
shrapnel proof. splinter proof shields
for such ordnance being regarded as
sufficient. Popular Mechanics.

NEWTON D. BAKER.-Tl

NEWTON D. BAKER.-The new
secretary of war was Tom Johnson's
first lieutenant all the time Tom was
battling for real democracy in CIeve-
land. Baker was Toms director of
law, and when Johnson died Newt.
Baker succeeded him as mayor for
two terms. Baker is a real progress
siYe and a common sense radical. He
has been a pacifst, and said he was
for peace at almost-any-price. His
appointment means that President
Wilson didn't want a secretary of war
who was so scrappy that he would be
looking for trouble, but rather man
who is for peace and the prepared
ness that makes for peace.
Baker will undoubtedly be heard
on the stump in this years presiden-
tiaI campaign, for he is a corking

THE HYPHENATES.-There are
some Over-zealOUs American citizens
of German birth or ancestry who
have been getting themselves in bad
by trying to influence the conduct of
this country in favor of the kaiser.
But that's no reason for any whole
sale roasting of GeTman-Americans
This country has no kick coming
against the patriotism of men Of Ger
man birth at any time the country
needed their services. And if there
should, unhappily, be any clash be-
tween this country and Germany,
there isn't any doubt in my mind at
all as to where the great mass of
German-Americans would stand
they would be just where they have
been ever since Germans began land
ing on our shores the govern
ment of their adoption.
While a few of them have been
making much noise and even threat
ening the administration with the
German vote, the great majority of
them have been quietly minding
their own business and undoubtedly
hoping they wouldn't have to choose
between the land of their birth and
the land of their adoption.
And they could follow the stars
and stripes without losing their love
for the FatheTland. In their affection
for the land where they or their IA
theirs were born they are no different |
than any of the hyphenated Ameri- |
cans whose native land happens to |
Be England, France, Russia or Italy.
