Without stopping to turn on the
light. 1 hurried across the nursery
to Grace's bed. The child was sob
bing loudly, and gathered her in
my arms.
What's the matter, darling?" 1
asked. What has frightened you?"
Who is it?" she gasped. "Oh,
Miss Dart, Miss Dart. is it you?"
Yes, yes, dear" I soothed. "Of
dream" Then, as she clung to me,
spoke in an ordinary tone to the
man who, I knew, was waiting out
side the door in case he was needed.
"Mr. Parker! VIII you please
come in here for moment and turn
on the light so that Grace may see
just where she is? She has had
dream that frightened her."
Surely, 1 WILL" Hugh responded,
and, at the sound of his strong voice.
the little girl sobbed less violently.
When 1 was a small boy" he re-
marked practically as the electric
light flooded the room, IT used to
have NIGHTMARES that made my hair
rise. That's the reason it's never
smooth now"
Grace giggled through her tears
while she looked around the room
as ii to make sure that all was as
usual. Then her eyes rested on my
face, and she nestled closer to me.
II must have had an orful dream,
she confided. ~ am sorry I cried
like that"
ITS all right. darling" I muir
INJURED. Now Mr.. Parker is going
down stairs, and I am going TO stay
here by you while you tell me all
about it,
Poor little kiddie." Hugh COM
mented as he patted the fair head
before leaving. IF you want any
of us again, you Just call and We'll
all come running.
AS l saw him stand there so tall
and strong, with the expression on
his face that he always had when
he was talking to any one or any
thing in trouble, my heart gave n
great bound of affection. How dear
he was!
My glance may have told him what
I was thinking, for a glad light crept
into his eyes. Then, without another
word, he turned and left the room"
Frightened by a Dream
After he had gone l asked Grace
again what had frightened her.
'1t was a dream, I guess" she
said slowly. But" with a shiver,
lit did scare me, Miss Dart
"I know it did. darling" I SYM
pathized. Il have had dreams
frighten me too, sometimes-but.
after ell. they are only dreams"
Now that 1 regarded her closely,
l noticed that she was very pale
and that her breath came more rap
idly than usual.

! wrist, felt that the pulse was fast
and irregular. I recalled that Mrs.
Gore had told me that as a baby
Grace had had occasional attacks
of heart weakness and that her heart
had never been strong, The agita-
ton tonight had undoubtedly made
it beat faster than 1t should. The
best thing just now would be to quiet
her, then go down and ask Mrs
Gore what remedy it would be we'll
to administer should the trouble
continue.
1T choked me-" the child said
suddenly, shuddering, putting her
hand to her throat.
What choked you?" I asked.
Something in your dream?"
Yes" she whispered. II could
not see it, but heard it, and it
said, 'Hush!' and it did something to
me here" touching her throat again.
Turning her toward the light,
scrutinized the white throat and
neck. I knew that there would be
no mark there, and yet I wanted to
be able to tell the child that moth
ing had touched her.
Does 1t hurt you to swallow"
asked.
No" she said, guiping hard; mot
Then, dear" soothed. 1T think
you have had too little fresh air to-
day and too much story-reading.
You have been dreaming of those
old Greeks that we read about, and
of their fights-and that has made
you think that somebody was hurt
ing you. But nobody was, dear lit
tie girl. You know that, don't you?"
Yes, I know that" She smiled
contentedly. and held my hand too
her lips. "I love you!"
Miss Dart Is Uneasy
Already her lids were dropping
drowsily over her eyes. She was
forgetting her disaEreeable dream
in natural slumber. She would prob
ably be all right now.
Still I sat by her until she was so
fast asleep that when I disengaged
her hand from my grasp and arose
from the bed, she did not stir.
I felt her pulse again. 1t was
slower, but not yet as regular as
could wish. If Mr.. Norton and Mrs.
Gore were still talking in the Ii
brary, I would go there and tell
them of the attack. I'ney had been
so much engaged when the child
had cried out that they had not
heard her voice.
The sound of the front door open
ing and closing came to my ears. I
turned out my light and went to the
front window.
The clouds were breaking and the
moon was shining through the riffs
in them. BY it's light I could dimly
discern the figures of Tom and
Hugh strolling down the path to the
gate.
1t was evident that our game of
cards was not to be resumed this
evening. But first ] would go down
stairs and speak to my employer
and his sister-in-law about my
charges irregular heart-action. I
would not take the responsibility
upon myself of Sgnoring this symp-
tom. If the little girl had been at

there must be in the house some
restorative that I could administer
in case it was needed.

tually ill. yet 1 felt vaguely uneasy
about her as I went softy down

LIBERTY LOAN Is
THREE BILLION
Official Figures Show Nation
Responded Whole
Heartedly

Washington. June 23. - The United
States effectively answered the pro-
German propagandists that there
was apathy in this nation in sub
scribing for the Liberty Loan. The
American people oversubscribed the
loan to the amount of $1,035, ,226S
This was shown in the official figures
made public by Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo.
While there was no official an
nouncement, it is known that another
loan for the same amount will be ne
gotiated by the Government next Sep
tember. 1t is believed that those
who cannot be accommodated with
this loan will be asked to take care
of the new one.
Nine of the Federal Reserve dis
tricts oversubscribed their allot-
ments; three, Atlanta, Minneapolis
and Kansas City. failed to meet them,
although Atlanta came to within
100000 of its allotment. The fail
ure of these districts was attributed
to the failure of the farming elements
to respond to the loan.

Carlisle. Pa, June 23.-The fif-

Mr.. and Mrs Daniel E. Drawbaugh,
of Eberlys Mills, is being celebrated
at the home of their son, John
Drawbaugh, near Mechanicsburg,

relative of Daniel Drawbaugh, the
celebrated inventor and greatly re-
sembles him in appearance.
The couple were married on June
%, 1867, at Mechanicsburg by the
Rev. Mr.. Ahl and spent all of their
married life in that section. They
were married shortly after Mr..

cept with the yellow label.

You simply apply a few
drops of freezone upon. a
tender corn or painful cal
lus and instantly the sore
ness disappears, then
shortly you will find the
corn or callus so loose that
you can just lift it off with
the fingers.
No pain, not a bit of
soreness, either when ap-
plying freezone or after
wards and it doesn't even
irritate skin.
Hard corns, soft corns
or corns between the toes.

GLASS FACTORY
FOR HAMILTON
Another Industry Has It's Eyes on
City Across River for
Location.

Another big factory is being organ
lied and will in all probability locate
in Hamilton-that is if the people
here want 1t. If not it will locate
elsewhere, says the Hamilton Press.
It is big glass factory and Walter
Rayburn, formerly OF this city and
now Of Keokuk. is promoting the eti-
terprise. He is brother of Earl
Rayburn Of this city.
There is an unlimited supply OF an
excellent grade of sand on the old
Darnell place, north of town on Lake
Cooper The tract OF land on which
this sand is found is owned by VIII
liam Powers and Walter Rayburn
Samples of the sand have been ex-
amined by experts who found it to be
of an Al grade for the manufacturing
Of glassware.
Mr.. Rasburn is now completing
final arrangements toward the organ
ization of a company, which, it is
said, will be capitalized at 100000.
Half this amount will be preferred
stock and one-half will be common
stock. 1t Is proposed to build the
factory in Fairview Park, near the
chased for the buildings, etc. This
on the railroads, and convenient to
ship the finished product. The sand
will be hauled down from above the
dam in motor trucks, six or seven
tons at time.
1t is up to the people OF this COM
munity to decide whether or not they
want this factory. If they do not,
there are other towns that are eager
for 1t. A glass factory does not nee
essarily have to be located where the
sand Is. There are hundreds of such
factories that are shipping their sand
in on railroads from points hundreds
of miles away.
Judging from present opinions the
stock will be sold in record time, as
every one seems to think well of the
proposition. 1t will mean much to
our community TO have 1t here, and
we hope It will land.

ed man and o5eyed. :
The holdup mans companion. . boy
OF about eighteen, then rifled the cash
register OF the store. securing sixty
five dollars in money and two five dol
lar checks. The operation required
but few minutes and then the pair OF
robbers departed the way they had
come, through the side door.
The youth did not wear q mask and
was q stranger to Mr.. Higham. He
was about five feet six inches in
height and would wengh about 100
pounds. He wore dark overcoat and
o dark soft hat.
The masked man appeared to be
over thirty years Of age and was about
five feet eleven inches in height. He
wore a black soft hat and dark over
coat that reached to his knees.
Mr.. Higham was reading the even
ing newspaper when the robbers en-
tered by the side door of the grocery
store. At first he paid no attention to
the command to hold up his hands,
thinking it was friend playing joke
but when he looked up and saw the
masked man pointing a. revolver at
him, he obeyed.
The man ordered his companion to
open the cash register. The youth
could not manipulate this machine
and had to force 1t open. Sixty-dve
dollars in money was taken. There
were a few dollar bills in the register
but the money was mostly in silver
dollars with some small change. Two
checks, each for five dollars were TAX

was thrown away.
