USE FOR SUGAR-BEET PULP
In France 1t Is Now Dried and Trans
formed Into What Is Called
"Sugar Flour"

The drying of fresh sugar-beet pulp,
thereby transforming it into what is
called sugar -four" Is now being un-
dertaken in northern France as COM
mercial proposition. The purpose of
this process is much the same as the
deSiccation Of potatoes, which has been
described in Popular Mechanics Maga-
zine, namely, to eliminate the moisture
from the vegetable matter so as to re-
duce it's weight and make it possible
to preserve part of all of the food
value for some time. This new sugar
flour has a certain amount of sweet
ness and can be used in cases where
pure sugar is not required, as, for ex-
ample, in certain brewing processes,
in making special breads, feeding stock,
and the like. In preparing it, fresh
beet pulp is poured into the top of a
tower, where it comes in contact with
warm air and then is delivered into a
rotary device on a set Of gratings,
placed one above the other. Next 1t
is subjected to hot air and eventually
reaches air heated to 248 degrees. A
ton of beets will yield 500 pounds Of
flour. 1t is thought that other drying
processes may be invented which will
make it possible to utilize many other
industrial residues which are now
thrown away. - Popular Mechanics

Love! that's the word, sweetheart
youth and love and happiness! You
and l, sweetheart"
She blushed and trembled. But she
had spent all the days of his absence
in that intimate comradeship with
Hardy. At the moment when Wander
vyn thought to take her into his arms,
her will rallied, her eyes hardened
with resolution.
II have said that 1 will wait. That
is enough. You also shall wait"
His eyes narrowed. HAS it never
occurred to you that you may be bit
too sure of me? The mine may pinch
out after the first few hundred thou
sands. I'm in on another deal that
stands to net a cool million. When

The slash of whip in his face would
have stung him far less. He stared at
her long moment, while the full
meaning of the words cut through the
armOr of his self-esteem. Modification,
anger, furious chagrin famed in his
face. He raised his hand as If to
strike her, and instead, whirled about
and rushed out through the porch.
The girl sank on her knees, and
pressed her hands to her lips to stifle
the cry that would have called him
back. When she looked up, her face
was white and drawn with anguish.
But she had conquered.
HE shall nOt-shall not know my
weakness" she whispered with fierce
determination. "H only it has Offend

increasing. Among the purposes for
which the pipe is now employed may
be mentioned agricultural implements,
automobiles, bedstead and hospital
furniture, architectural work, grill

Bird That Dances.

There is bird in the birdhouse of
New York Geological park that is a
bird of q dancer. He can do all the
modern dances. His name is Cock
Of-the-Rock, or the rupicola cotingidae.
He is a most peculiar bird. His aim
less leaping about meant next to moth
ing to the casual observers, who
thought that the floor of the cage pos
sibly might have become too hot for
his feet. But to Keeper Stacey the
same antics conveyed a message of
loneliness. "You see, Cock-of-the-Roc
BIRDS" explained the keeper, "llke to
dance. Down in British Guiana, where
this fellow comes from, the birds gath
er and dance in big circle. This bird
likes to think that he is home and so
dances around, taking the part of the
whole bunch. After he has danced
around in a big circle he thinks he's q
whole flock Of BIRDS" The Cock Of the
Rock is a rare bird, with beautiful red
and crane plumage. Unlike most birds
of this color, he has not faded to any
noticeable extent since being made g
captive.

,grieved tone. you know that until

jumping-jacks in the hands of my un-
Gle. They will hustle matters through
for us-short order. Once I-we-get
the mine, I'll be free man, and then,
sweetheart"
But the girl drew back from his
pleading arms.
"NO," she said. "If must wait, so
must you. If you mean what you say,
you should be satisfied that / still feel

"YOu mean-what?" he stammered.

you to take Il stand against him and
back me up with her."
"You sure can count me in on that
Mr.. Van" eagerly assented Dupont.
"All right. I've got him fixed. But
wanted to make sure of your backing.
If he comes to dinner tonight I'll have
gay little surprise or two up my
sleeve for him."
Il been waiting to ask you about the
mine. How're we going to work the
deal?
We've got to make a show of a
real contest. It's to be run on the old
style rush plan"
Suppose one of them there men at
the butte has the best hOrse?"
Vandervyn thrust out his jaw.
Don't fash yourself. Pm going to
have that mine. This is my idea of
the way We'll fix it." He leaned over
and murmured in Dupont's ear.
The trader shook his head. "Um-m
I'm not saying that mightn't work.
Just the same, though, it'd make you
the only one what could do the enter
ing. I'd be a sooner"
"The mine would be entered by me,
but of course we would have the un-
derstanding that you were to get your
half" replied Vandervyn. He stepped
briskly to the door. "Come, l guess
the bunch has had time enough to cool
their heels"
Still frowning dubiously, Dupont fol-
lowed him over to the office, where
Hardy and the commissioners sat wait
ing for them, stiff and constrained.

| When l came from the Coast l had
lost one dearer to me than anyone else
In all the world-my mother. She
was little woman, very frail-her
blue eyes were dim and faded, her
hair white; but even when she-was
at the very end-her dear eyes sought
to ease my grief with the same look
you gave me as you bent over me
here and thought me fatally injured"
"Please!" begged the girl, choking
back a sob. II do not deserve
Your mother but l am not kind nor
good d!"
Hardy went on in the same voice
of profound passion: "You lifted me
out Of the shadow of the Valley. You
came to me in my blank darkness, a
glorious light Of divine goodness that
compelled me to see that all was not
wrong with the universe-that even
so great a loss as mine might be for
the best"
Il am not what you think mel
am nOt!" she reiterated.
"YOu restored my faith and hope"
he insisted. ut would be selfish of
me to ask anything more of you
now"
ut would be useless-useless =! she
cried.
He was too little versed In feminine
nature to realize that her vehemence
might indicate an effort to suppress
an inner doubt Of the assertion. Had
he been a few years younger, youth
full impetuosity might have won him
that which his reverent respect shrank
from urging. He had taken her
gloved hand. He pressed it to his lips,
and freed her.
II shall not annoy you, dear" he
said. "Yet cannot take that as final,
l shall wait until he returns. Then
shall take my fighting chance"
"YOu will?" she whispered.
II shall not give up until you have
pledged yourself to him. If 1 can,
will prevent that. He cannot pos
sibly love you as love you. If it is
possible to win you for my wife, l
will do it."
Marie quivered, and shrank from
him as if startled. "YOu say, when
he comes back But until then
you-yOu will not"
Until then we shall continue to be
the same good comrades that we have
BEEN"
The girl drew in a deep breath.
'"Then-let us go back to work."
Hardy accepted the suggestion with
self-control that was as remarkable
as 1t was misplaced.

The Only Woman.

During the pleasant, busy days that

long hours Of companionshIp fully as
much as Hardy. Dupont, now ever
bluff and genial, kept close to his
store. But during the long evening
discussions his eyes often twinkled
cunningly under their gray thatch.
No word had been received from
Washington except two notes from
Vandervyn to Dupont, reporting favor

what these contained, even to her IA

approved and signed, after fifteen mil

CORNS LIFT OUT
WITH FINGERS

You say to the drug store man,
"Give me a small bottle of freezone."
This will cost very little but will
positively remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet.
A few drops of this new ether COM
pound applied directly upon tender,
aching corn relieves the soreness in
stantly, and soon the entire corn or
callus, root and all, dries up and can
be lifted off with the fingers.
This new way to rid ones feet Of
corns was introduced by Cincinnati
man, who says that freezone dries in
a moment, and simply shrivels up the
corn or calIus without irritating the
surrounding skin.

Town Quits Comfort
To Aid Wars Wounded

Niles, Mich. July 29-Niles has set
an example for the rest OF the coun-
try. has sacrificed its own comfort
and convenience for the sake OF sick
and wounded soldiers.
The city council OF Niles has voted
5000 to the Red Cross. and did 1t
with a cheer. and without a thought
OF its cost to the city.
1t may have to be taken out Of
the city improvement fund. 1t may
leave the streets covered with slush
in the winter. with mud and debris
in the summer-but the boys on the
fro n will be cared for with that
S.O~ And the citizens of Niles won't
mind the hardships. It's much easier
to go with wet and freezing feet than
to brave the trenches and the battle
fields.
The money is only the city's cor
porate donation. The individual gifts
have been many and generous. Nor
did the city's patriotism stop at
money.
The town has a population Of 5000
or less-but 513 men registered and
2T applied for enlistment.
