CHAPTER XVI.

Late September had come, The
Street had been ~furiously busyo for q
month. The cObblestones had gone.
and from curb to curb stretched smooth
asphalt. To this general excitement
the strange case of Mr.. lie Moyne had
added its quota. One day he was in
the gas office, making out statements
that were absolutely ridiculous. And
the next there was the news that Mr.
lie Moyne had been only taking a holt
day in the gas office and that he was
really a very great surgeon and had
saved DIR. Max Wilson.
The Street, which was busy at tbe
time deciding whether to leave the old
sidewalks or to put down cement ones.
had one evening of mad excitement
over the matter-of H., not the side
walks-and then had accepted the new
situation.
But over the news of KS approach
ing departure it mOurned. The Street
made a resolve to keep X, if possible,

and still goes about in the same shabby
clothes, with the same friendly greet
ing for everyone, it demonstrates clear
ly, as the baritone put it, that "he's got
no swelled head on him that's sure"
A little later, r., coming up the
Street as he had that first day, heard
the baritone singing:
Home Is the hunter, home from the hill
And the sailor. home from the sea-"
Home! Why, this was home. The
Street seemed to stretch out its arms
him. The ailanthus tree waved In
the sunlight before the little house.
Tree and house were old; September
had touched them. Christine sat sew
ing on the balcony. A boy with a piece
Of chalk was writing something on the
new cement under the tree. He stood
back, head on one side, when he had
finished, and inspected his work. K.

GOOD AUTO D0NT's

Don't fail to give signal with

Don't overtake and pass street
cars on left.
Don't drive on the left side Of

Don't cut corners.
Don't have your muller cut
out when driving.
Don't overload your ar.
Don't take blind curves at high
speed.
Don't approach street intersec-
tons at high speed.
Don't look for the leak in your

match.
Don't forget to turn on gasO-

Look out for a cracked porce-

Watch

A scraping noise sometimes can be
traced to a valve-spring which has be-
come misplaced and is rubbing
against the place which inclosed the
valve mechanism. To eliminate this
requires either the fitting of a new
spring or the reshaping of the old
spring so that contact with the cover
plate Is avoided,

Clean Auto Parts.

The power plant and drip pan should
be kept clean at all times. Especially
is this true with the modern car,
which is equipped with much electrical
wiring. A short circuit and a slight
spark is sufficient to start a fire. If
the drip pan and power plant are
clean, there is not much fuel for. a fire
and it may be readily extinguished.

INVESTIGATION or
|. & n. WRECK TO
BEGIN AT ONCE
Special Grand Jury Called.
Death List Increased to
Forty-Six During
the Day

Louisville, December 2f.-An official in
vestigation into the causes which led to
the rear-end collision between two Louis
vile and Nashville passenger trains at
Shepherdsville, Ky, last night, will be-
gin here tomorrow morning at the o.
fees of w. f. Sheridan superintendent
of the Louisville division. Revised state
ments today placed the number of dead
at 46.
An investigation of the tragedy and
the causes leading up to it will also be
made by special grand jury which
has been called for next Wednesday at
Shepherdsville, it was announced here
tonight by Judge d. A. McCandless of
the Built county court.
Owing to the Importance of the case
high officials of the Louisville and Nash
vile, who ordinarily would not take
part in an investigation of the sort, will
aid in the railroad inquiry. o. S. Rey-
nolds, agent of the interstate commerce
commission, will also be present at the
inquiry it was announced tonight.
The investigation to be made by the
railroad officials will be searching and
thorough, b. M. Stark, general man
ager, said tonight, and will leave no
stone unturned in the effort to fix re-
sponsibility.
The crew of the New Orleans flyer and
the surviving members of the crew of the
wrecked local, together with members
of the station force at Shepherdsville,
will be the most important witnesses TO
be heard at the inquiry.

the way. They even are menaced
by the shark of warfare, the subma-
rine. Many of us seated here to-
night will probably in a very few
days receive summons to muster a
gun in defense of our native land,
in the protection of our mothers and
sisters and wives and sweethearts.
Many will make the supreme sacri-
flee upon the blood dyed battlefields
of France. Two of the nations with
which we were first allied have now
been bought off. Many German pris-
oners have been released which will
have to be killed or captured by the
boys who are now on their way to
the front. 1t is clearly up to Amer
lea to win the war There are only
three factors which will do it, not
one, nor two. but the three-unity.
efficiency and conservation.
A short talk was made by Hon.
James J. A. Fortier, in which he paid
high tribtue to Judge Adamson as
father of the Adamson eight-hour
law, stating that it had resulted in
a benefit to the entire country by
establishing a standard of time for
work, recreation and sleep, which it
has taken centuries to evolve.
Judge Adamson will leave for New
York to assume the responsibilities
OF his newly accepted office within
the next few days, after paying
visit to his old home at Carrollton.
Georgia.

Maude Marie Costello
Shows Women How to Avoid Bakeday
Failure and Waste

The series of domestic science articles
prepared by the famous domestic science
expert. Maude Marie Costello, appearing
in this paper are winning the favorable
comment of scores of our women readers.
This is not surprising as Miss Cos
tello's articles should prove of wonderful
assistance to any housewife in the solv-
ing of her household problems. They
should be of particular value in increas-
ing baking success and effecting greatest
baking economy, as Miss Costello has de-
voted years to experimental work in
cookery She has tested practically every
baking ingredient on the market today.
And with the aid of an exact UNDER
standing of the science of cookery has
positively determined just which special
brands of goods are productive of best
cooking results at lowest baking costs.
Miss Costello is one Of the highest
cookery authorities in America. She is a
graduate of the University of Chicago
and the Lewis institute. She is a teacher
of domestic science in the public schools,
and is leader in many of the leading
domestic science organizations in the
country.
Miss Costello speaks straight rom ex-
perience. And when she tells Of means
of curtaiing baking costs, or of obtain
ing better bakings. the reader may rest
assured that those same efficiency and
economy results may be obtained in her
own kitchen.
Read Miss Costellos articles ana real
ize the greatest bake day savings and
baking success.
