I on Trail. .l -

New York.-Miss Margaret Bale, a
pretty American girl Of twenty-five
years, arrived at an Atlantic port a
few days ago on what she hopes will
be the last lap OF q journey which
has extended over a period Of four
years and has entailed four crossings
Of the ocean and four trips across the
English channel. Miss Bale, early in
1914, became engaged to an American
boy in Minnesota. The date for the
wedding had been set when the war
broke out and the young man hurried

to Canada where he enlisted in the
Maple Leaf army and went to France
with the first Canadian contingent.
The young woman and her mother
crossed to England some weeks later
and for two years Miss Bale tried un-
successfully to obtain permission to
visit France. Finally she succeeded,
but found upon her arrival in France
that her lover had been ordered back
to Canada on a recruiting mission and
she followed him there, only to learn
on reaching q Canadian port that he
had rejoined his company for active
service somewhere in Flanders.
Nothing daunted, the young woman
recrossed the ocean alone and again
obtained permission to visit France.
When she had crossed the English
channel she learned that her fiance
had been wounded and had been order
ed back to Canada to recuperate. A
comparison Of the sailing dates indi-
Gated that she had passed her lover
somewhere in mid-ocean.
The young woman hurried back to
England and caught boat that land

from the Canadian border. AS she
Jumped into a taxicab at the steam

Rurns inconsistent in Love.

Burns love affairs were both the product and the inspiration of his genius, says the London Telegraph. Although he had written to Clarinda of Edinburgh that, compared with her, Jean Armour was as the expiring glimmer of a farthing taper beside the glory of the meridian sun, he married Jean within two months. Last year at Sotheby's q letter written week after his marriage, vindicating Jean entirely, fetched $550. A few days ago a curi- ous Burns letter was offered dated June 26 17SS (Burns was married August 8, 17SS), in which he states: "I have waited on MT. Aud about my marriage affair and stated that I was legally fined for an irregular marriage by justice of the peace. He says if I bring an attestation of this by the two witnesses there shall be no more litigation about it." The 'legal' mar riage which followed August was ap- parently the solution of the trouble. Doubts raised in the auction room as to the authenticity of the letter were dispelled.

SECRET CIPHER ON MACHINE
Code Messages Can Be Produced on New Typewriter by Writing on
 Keyboard in Usual Way.

You can write secret cipher letters on typewriter recently placed on the market. The machine makes its own cipher and offers more than a million combinations. To make a cipher, the message is written on the keyboard in the ordinary way,
 The cipher is determined by a de tachable plate or disk containing 30 holes in two concentric circles of 15 holes each. For each of these holes there is a pin, and to make a cipher combination these pins may be insert ed in or left out of any of the holes, as fancy dictates. Then, in writing the ccpy, the machine may write an ''x" for an "a" the first time 1t occurs. then 'p," and so on,
 It is impossible to predetermine wh8 t code letter will appear in operat- ing the machine. To decipher a code message the person receiving the communication must have a cOmple- mentary disk, with pins properly ar ranged, and one of the machines to re- produce the message as originally writ ten

LOWER PRICES FOR FLOUR SUBSTITUTES
 IS NOW DEMANDED

There are strong indications that the price of corn meal and other sub stitutes for wheat flour will be reduced within the next few weeks. The Food Administration at Washington has sent out warning to all millers of substitute grains and to wholesale and retail dealers in these products, call ing their attention to the fact that at the present prices paid for corn and oats, cornmeal and oatmeal should be selling at least 20 per cent below the price of wheat flour, and that corn and barley flour should be selling at least ten per cent below wheat flour.
 The high levels ruling in grains as a result of ear shortages and stormy weather last winter have now fallen materially with greater freedom of transportation and the stocks accumu- lated by manufacturers and traders at the prices tuling then should have been generaty Bquidated by this time, 1t Is held Investigations will be made in all cases Shere the dealer is be lieved to be charging more than fair profit on substitutes:

First Australian Sheen.

Australian wool, on which has been built up much of that British colony's prosperity, started more than one hun dred years ago. It originated with a certain Captain Macarthur, a sol dier in the British army. Settling in New South Wales, soon after Cover nor Phillip arrived there, he saw the possibilities for growing fine wool, and by the luckiest accident was able in 1796 to import five merino ewes and three rams. They were of a flock presented by the king of Spain to the Dutch at the cape, and came from the famous Escurial flock. These, judici- ously added to by Macarthur, were the beginning of the vast Australian sheep industry of today, The first shipment of Australian wool was 245 pounds in 1907; now the shipments run into hundreds of millions of peunds.-Indianapolis News.

Father of Socialism.

Karl Marx, the German Jew who fathered the modern socialistic school, died 34 years ago, March 14, 1883. He was born in May of 1918.
 Marx had many great associates and successors in carrying on the social istic propaganda, including Friedrich EngeIs, Ferdinand Rebel and Wilhelm Liebknecht, the latter the father of Dr. Karl Liebknecht, the latter day leader of the German social democracy, who is now serving a term in prison on conviction of high treason, due to his opposition to the war. It is Marx, however, who is honored as the foun- der and father of the movement. He was undoubtedly the ablest of the pi- oneers who endured Imprisonment in Prussian prisons for 'the cause" Marks work, Capital" is the so-calIed Bible of Socialism," and the bitterest critics of the Marxian creed admit that it is a monumental work.

Ministers Tried to See a Navy Yard on Passes Made Out to Others
 and Got Into Trouble.

Two clergymen received a rather se- were lesson on the dangers of trying to see the Charlestown navy yard on passes not intended for their use, the Boston Transcript states. They were arrested, taken to the marine barracks and detained" pending Identification by friends.
 The clergymen obtained passes which were made out in the names of two of their friends, and which were supposed to be nOntranSferable, like all passes issued at the yard. The wis itors succeeded in gaining admittance and got as far as the deck on one of the battleships. which they were spe- cially interested in viewing. As soon ss they stepped on the deck they were challenged by the guard, who asked to see their passes and who obtained their names. When he had looked over the passes the guard called attention to the difference in the names given and those on the cards. On being questioned further the clergymen had to admit that the passes had not been made out for them, but had been bOr- rowed.
 They were promptly marched to the barracks. under order from Comman- der +. D. Hasbrouck, captain of the yard. and held for two hours until their friends arrived and identified them Af- ter a severe lecture the clergymen were permitted to leave

ALLIED FOOD SHIPMENTS
 REACH LARGE TOTAL.

A general idea of the quantity of food sent to European allies by the United States from July 1, 1914, to January l, 1918, is given by figures just announced by the U. s. Food Ad- ministration. In that period the Unit ed States has furnished complete year ly rations for 57,1OO,933 people. In addition there was enough extra pro- tein to supply this portion of the diet for 9, ,194, ,570 additional men.
 The total export of wheat and wheat flour to the three principal allies is equivalent to about 3S4,OOO,O00 bushels. Pork exports for the BE years amount ed to almost 2,OO0,OO0,OOO pounds. Ex- ports of fresh beef totaIed AS, ASA, 400 pounds. The amount of food exported to Russia is negligible compared with that sent to the western allies.

EAT ICE CREAM
 SAYS FOOD HEAD
DRINK MORE MILK, EAT MORE CHEESE, ADVICE TO ARl-
 IONA FOLK
DAIRY INDUSTRY AT STAKE
TABOO PLACED ON SOFT DRINK AND sHERBET; USE OF SUGAR
 cURTAILED

Eat more ice cream, drink more milk, eat more cheese. Eat less candy, drink less soft drinks and eat less sherbet These suggestions constitute the latest hot weather advice to the residents of Arizona from the federal food administrator for this state.
 There is a double reason for the sug- gestion The dairy industry of the state must be preserved at all costs, and the consumption of sugar must be materially decreased.
 All makers of ice cream, soda water and fountain syrups are now required to procure sugar certificates. Realiz- ing that ice cream is food rather than a luxury, especially in the sum- mer months in Arizona. the Food Ad- ministration is granting a full allow ance of sugar for this purpose. For all other manufacturing. purposes the supply is being materially decreased, and new enterprises are being discour aged
 There is a real shortage of sugar in Arizona, and while it is desirous to give the housewife all the sugar neces- sary for home canning purposes the public is urged to cut down on the use of soda water and confectionery until the supply is more abundant.
 On the other hand the Food Admin istration advocates the fuller use of milk and other dairy products as food, and especially in homes where there are children. Most persons look upon milk as a beverage, overlooking the fact that it is in reality food. In spite of the fact that it is seven eighths water, the other eighth made uD of solids contains all the necessary
