 Hardy may have recalled the hazings in which he had shared at West Point. His only comment was: "You were fortunate to get any appointment"
 "Oh, don't know" carelessly repliet Vandervyn. "I didn't wake the presi- dent, and I had some of my wad left. The watchman sent me home in a taxi. But the internal grafter must have peached. I got this instead of Lon don"
 Best thing for you"
 "You think sop said Vandervyn, his wide-open eyelids dropping, "Pve been six months in this God-forsaken jump fng-off place. I wouldn't have stayed six days if it hadn't been for Marie"
 Miss Dupont seems to be a very spirited young woman," dryly con- mented Hardy.
 Wait till you see her put on dog. She was three or four years at a con- vent in Ottawa. They must have farmed her out as a parlor-maid in some select British family. She can give perfect imitation of a real lady when she chooses''
 "Yes?" said Hardy.
 You'd take it for the sure-nuff ar- ticle," went on Vandervyn. And that's net all. She can cook like an angel. Says she took a course in domestic science. But it must be hereditary. I'll give odds, one of her paternal ances- tors was a French chef. French, that's the word. The way she has with men |! Even this halfbreed Redbear thinks he is in the running. Nogen was mad over her. He even would have married her. But he was not man of

his fieldglasses at his eyes. "QaIte new, I see. You have still to put dirt 1 on this corner of the roof" And to put squaw inside" added Vandervyn.
 The halfbreed's jaw muscles twftched, but he did not look away from Hardy. "I got a letter from my sister Oinna. She says she can't stay at school. She says she will die if they make her stay at school. I want her to come and cook for me till get mar ried."
 "How old is she?" ..-.. "More than seventeen. She is sick to come. She says she will die."
 "Very well. But you must take good care of her until she is married'
 "Yes, sir. I've got lot of money" replied the halfbreed, with the prone ness of weak nature to boast. 'Ive got almost-'
 "-Almost enough to buy you two squaws," cut in Vandervyn.
 Redbear started to speak, caught the others eye, and refined in his pony. Hardy did not notice this. They had rounded the toe of the spur ridge, and he was gazing up the green valley that lay OutStretched in a circle of hills larger and far more picturesque than the Catskills. Sioux creek swirled out of canyon at the far end, to meander down a winding channel frfnged with bushes and aspens and other small trees.

 Hardy looked at the mountains and changed the subject: May ask you to give the particulars of the killing of MT. Nogen?'
 Van0ervyn's eyelids dropped low and opened again in a wide, guileless stare. There's little to tell. Nogen and I and Redbear were riding into the noun tains. 4 We met the murderer. He and Nogen- Quarreled. He shot Nogen- killed him. Then Redbear and fired, and one of us got him-we don't know which of us it was. That's all. You'll find it in the coroner's report. I kept copy in the office at the agency"
 Strange that an Indian should at tack white man that way" observed Hardy. "Was the cause ascertained?" ?"
 Vandervyn twisted the tip of his blond mustache. "Well, it may be all talk, but gather that the trouble was over this ore-buying. Nogen thought it good thing to encourage. The chiefs felt ugly because the goods were not paid to them instead of to the laborers the bucks and squaws who dug the ore, you know. The chiefs stirred up lot of bad blood. No doubt they in- stigated the murder. They want to boss the tribe their own way"
 ''Let us trust that we shall have them in hand before fall."

 You may receive the appointment of attache."
 Perhaps I don't want it just now. You forget Marie"
 The gravity of the officers face hard ened to sternness. "Mr. Vandervyn, kindly bear in mind that, as agent of this reservation, am in charge of the moral as well as the material welfare of every member of the tribe.''
 Vandervyn quivered like thorough bred fiecked with the lash. His voice shook with passion:
 "Damn your impudence! I'll have you understand you're not talking to one of your rough-neck recruits. My ancestors were gentlemen before yours were ever heard of."
 T regret that you do not seem to have inherited their gentlemanly man. ners," came back the cool reioinder.
 Vandervyn's reddened face went crimson. The veins of his forehead be- gan to swell. But with a strong effort ne repressed his anger and forced a smile. 'YOu went me one better, Hardy. throw down."
 The officer responded with instant sympathy:
 T see no reason why we should not become friends and work together for the good of the tribe.'
 Its go," agreed Vandervyn, and as if cleared of all ill temper by his out burst, he began lively conversation on official society in the national capi tai.
 The party topped the rise between the river and Sioux creek, and rode down the winding road that skirted its wiilow-fringed bank to the crossing of the stream. As they rounded the spur ridge on the far side Redbear rode up on Hardy's right, and pointed to small cabin among the quaking aSpS in the mile-wide curve of the stream to the left.
 'See my house, sir," he said.
 Looks well built" remarked Hardy.

Spain Neutral,
Says Japanese
Minister There

"Spain-its government and its peo
ple-are very neutral. Both the PEG
pie and the government want to main
tain strict neutrality" Thus did Miss
l. Horigoutchi, talented daughter Of
K. Horigoutchi, for the past five years
the Japanese minister to Spain, faith
fully translate this morning from Span
ish to English the statements Of hel
father. :a
Then With flash from her expires
siVe eyes and shrug Of ner shoulders
Miss Horigoutchi continued:
Eyes, Spain is neutral. Maybe sc
her people. But her government: All
not at heart" ~. Fl
There was a racial reason for Miss
Horogoutchi's evident desire to ex
press her indignation for all who were
not openly 'he foes of the defamers
of Belgium, which was restrained
only by filial duty.
Miss Horigoutchi's mother is a Bel
gian and her training as the daughter
of rotec japanese dipl5 nat cannot
conceal from the observer that Bel
gums wrongs are deeply felt by her
For moment more Miss Horigout
chi became the person interviewed
For three years now we hare rot
heard from my mothers relatives
They were all in Brussels the last we
heard. They mad be dead. They
may have suffered a worse fate"
Then her father interviewed in bro
ken English to repeat that Spain is
neutral, evidently fearing from the ex
preston on his daughters face that
she was not exactly living up to her
part as an Interpreter for a diplomat
. When questioned further he said
that Spain commercially was, profiting
hugely and that internal conditions
were good, despite infrequent strikes.
Asked if he thought Germany main.
tanned submarine base on the Span.
ish coast he dismissed the question
with the remark, "Of that have heard
nothing" ~
Miss Horigoutchis says her father
and mother were married about 80
years ago in Brussels, when he was a
student there. After that they re.
sided for many years in Japan until he
was sent to Mexico City as Japanese
minister. ...>.
Miss Horigoutchi is a distinctive DC.
cidental beauty, showing no trace of
her japanese blood, except perhaps in
complexion. Of her powers as lin.
gust her father is proud. He told the
Honolulu JaDanese rennrtere that che
spoke five languages fluently. These
are Japanese, Belgian, French, Ger.
man and Spanish. ....
OF the results of the Ishii mission
to the United States and the reported
declaration of a Monroe doctrine for
China by Japan, the Japanese diplo.
mat refused to talk. He evaded it by
asking his daughter to state she did
not understand political subjects."
Besides his adult daughter, Minister
Horogoutchi is accompanied by his
wife, small son and attaches.

IF KIDNEYS AND
BLADDER BOTHER
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys
and NeutraIize Irritating
Acids

Kidney and bladder weakness result
from uri acid, says a noted authority.
The Kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
where it often remains to irritate and
inflame, causing burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer is in
constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with a scalding sensation
and is very profuse; again, there is
difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
it, because they cant control urina-
ton. While it is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take tablespoonful in a glass OF
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu'
tralize the acids in the urine SO it no
longer is source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which
then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caus.
ed by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever. RI
Here you have pleasant, efferves-
cent lithaia-water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.-AdV,
