SIXTEENTH EPISODE
A Modern Pirate

People who raise children are sure
of n life of surprises. They would
have more than they get If they could
see everything that goes on.
Pierpont Stafford had been kept
pretty well surprised Of late by his
daughters actions. In his haste he
had sald that she was probably ION
that canal barge in the river" He
did not expect to be taken seriously
by the fates. But there his daughter
was, at least on another barge, miles
farther up the stream but drifting
downward. She was In command of
the ship, at the tiller. trying to steer
the bulky hulk.
When Gloria saw that the captain
OF the tug had noticed the slight de
mil of the parted hawser and the lost
convoy she was vexed. When she saw
the tugboat turning around to recap
ture the barge she felt that 1t would
be hard to explain about the prisoners
she had fastened down in the cabin.
She supposed 1t was mutiny or some
thing for Il passenger to tie up cap
tain. crew and cook, and change the
course of the ship. She believed that
people who did that were usually hung
from the yardstick or something. She
hoped that the old barge did not have
such thing on board.
The nearer the tug came the louder
the pilot and the crew yelled at her
and the less Gloria wanted to meet
them. She had never met any tugmen
and she felt no ambition to get into
their social set. 1t was growing SO
dark by now that they could not see
who was at the tiller. and they kept
calling her: "Trnsk" or "Oh, Jed !"
At length Gloria decided that she
was not needed any longer. She had
noted little boat bobbing along
after the barge and she felt that she

might as well capture that. 1t was
more nearly her size. She would be
safer alone on skiff than on the
barge when the tugmen released that
fiend of a Trask. He had planned to
kill her before she tied him up. He
would certainly do no less now that he
had escaped. Jed had evidently picked
himself up from the rocking-chair trap.
united Trask and unmufiled Nell. The
three had been pounding and bowling
for some time. The hatch held for n
while, but they were going at it now
with something as heavy as a batter
ing ram. 1t would yield soon surely
and then where would she be?
She ran to the edge of the barge and
the little boat. The barge was swish
Ing in the tide and 1t was trying to
run over the slliff. But Gloria had no
other avenue of escape. She hung
across the edge of the barge and
dropped into the skiff. Her aim was
not very accurate and the river nearly
got her. But she sat down quickly
and steadied herself and the boat She
began to ply the oars with great eager
ness, but little progress.
AT length she noticed that she had
forgotten to cast of. She ran to the
bow and had to unite the painter. The
wet knots were torture to her delicate
hands, but ut last she was free and the
boat fell away from the barge. The

started up dozens of times, seeing
Glorias little white finger pointing at
him. hearing her cry out again:
you killed hint l saw you"
The daybreak found him stretched
out at the stern of the canal boat, look
ing south for some possible avenger.
He saw the yacht swooping up the
stream long before Gloria made him
out. He seemed to feel that the un-
canny speed of the boat meant bust
ness. So he hunted out his old rifle
and kept his eyes on the yacht, as it

Finally he made out Gloria on the
prov, pointing at him.
Now Trask felt assured that Gloria
was a witch. She had appeared in his
cabin. then vanished, only to reappear
with a posse of yachtsmen. He felt
that he had been fool to let her dupe

man refused and repeated his warn
ings, but Gloria would not even tell
him good-by. She, her father and
Royce went down to the yacht landing
and were carried aboard in a little
boat, the oars flashing in the moon
light and the sailors coming hand
somely alongside.
1t was splendid to feel the deck under
foot. Gloria chuckled at the contrast
between the yacht and the canal boat.
She rejoiced in the famous speed of
the engines and she could imagine the
prov slicing the waves in pursuit of
the numbering barge. She was on

she had no time to waste and she
wanted to borrow his yacht and its

piled. His heart ached at the sight OF
her beauty and at the adventurous
spirit which sent her tender body into
so much danger with so few resources.
IL won't let you quit my sight again,
Gloria" he said and stared with such
idolatry that she felt afraid that he
was loving her too well.
''Then you will come along and help
me to capture the man who killed my
beloved Dick?'
"All right, captain" said Royce with
plucky smile. though her allusion to
Freneau cut him to the quick.
Judge Freeman seemed to be agf-
tated by the plan Gloria outlined for
the pursuit and capture of Trask.
you must not permit this, Pierpont,"
he protested, anxiously. "Your daugh-
ter has no legal right to arrest the man
Trask. If she should capture him she
would have to turn him over to the
authorities and she would have to face
a public explanation"
Gloria retorted with vigor: "You had
him. judge, and you said that he
slipped out of your fingers. Now you
advise me not to go after him again.
You let him escape once and want me
to let him escape second time. Why,
do not know. Why don't you tell me
why?'
Judge Freeman looked away guiltily.
His eyes turned to Pierpont and his
answer was to him and not to Gloria.
You must realize, Pierpont, that
such a cruise is no place for a girl of
Gloria's position and breeding"
That's true" said Pierpont. TITS

message the United States Department
of agriculture is sending out broadcast

rast tomorrow, and then extend the
wheatless idea to other days or meals, =
the dietary specialists suggest.
To help the public use corn meal as a
wheat substitute, the department has
eldered large editions OF Farmers
Bulletin 565, Corn Meal AS a Food and
ways OF Using It. which win be sent
on request to all who apply for 1t. This

fifty tested recipes for its use for
breakfast. luncheon, ana dinner.
= Corn, a great nacural breadst1f Of
this country, the departments
SPECIALISTS point out, has not been used
for human food nearly as much as its
valuable nutritive qualities warrant.
This is due largely to the fact that
many persons with a wheat-using
habit never have taken the pains to
learn to use corn. There is no import
ant dietetic difference between corn and
wheat as sources of body fuel. Bread
IS convenient as a source of starch
and protein, but in the ordinary mixed
dfet it makes little difference whether
one gets the required cereal ration in
the form of raised or light bread, mix

hominy grits, or desserts.

meals. the department suggests the
following:

AS a substitute for wheat break
fast foods, try white or yellow corn
meal or hominy grits, served with
cream and sugar, butter, strip, or

PATRIOTIC DUTY

During the Philippine war, only
1000 men were injured in line of
duty and $500 deaths were due to
insanitary conditions.
The calamities of the past can be
avoided by the common sense ap-
plication Of the principles of clean
illness, often called by the term
Sanitation" which as it refers to
preventable diseases, means:
/. Pure water and food.
2. Intelligent disposalof sewage.
8. Prevention Of fly-breeding
places.
In 1909, a commission was ap-
pointed in America to investigate
the subject of vaccination as
means for preventing typhoid
fever. Their conclusions were that
/. Anti-typhoid vaccination is
useful and without danger 1t
provides a simple method of
diminishing the frequency of
typhoid fever.
Q. The commission is of the
opinion that the actual experience
OF vaccination, amounting to over
100000 cases, justifles its use for
the regular army and the volun-
teers.
Those uninoculated against
typhoid are ten times more apt to
contract the disease, and it is ten
times more apt to be fatal when
they contract it, than is the case
with the inoculated.
