Eve was first to hold up her hand.
Then you must pay the forfeit"
said Aunt Jane as she held out a mir
r0r and a little card TO the girl ''Hold
this mirror in your hand, and 60 down
into the orchard until YOU are out Of
sight Of the house. Then. standing
under a tree so that the light Of the
moon falls over your right shoulder,
repeat the rhyme that IS on this card
three times Keep your eyes covered
until you have said the last word for
the third time; then look into the mir
ror and the image Of the man you are
going to marry will look out at you"
"WeIl, I'll co." said Eve, ''but if it's
any Of the boys here, 7 shall call it no
fair and if It's old Molly, the COW,
who wanders over from the other pas
ture I shall give her the 'mitten' then
and there"
She -ripped off and selected her spot
with due care. Then, as rapidly as
she could speak the lines. she recited
the old familiar verse that she had
known since childhood
Under the autumn leaves here I
stand
The Halloween mirror in my hand,
Moon. shining full in the sky so clear
Pray let me see I'm the mirror here
The face Of the man who some day
viii be
The dearest IN all this world to me-"
So intent was she on getting through
with this Peter Piper performance that
she did not hear the click Of the or
chard gate, nor the fall Of footsteps
coming nearer and nearer, and with a
little scream she dropped the mirror
out of her trembling hands and COW
cred her eyes as q deep and very fa'
mlIiar voice behind her repeated soft
ly:
Under the autumn leaves, 1of T stand,
Brought htther fair lady at thy com
mand.
And the moon that is shining away up
there,
Never shone on q face more wondrous
fair.
And my life win never quite happy
be
Till it's dearest IN all this world tC
me-"
And MS If to convince her that he
was more than moonshlne. two hands
were laid gently on her shoulders, and
Eve was turned around to confront
the impromDtu poet.
ooh, Adam " she gasped, ut Is veal
it is weal-I am so glad" and then
struggling between q hysterical incli-
nation TO laugh and q hysterical in
clinatlon to cry-Eva stood mute.
yes" said the man, ut is veal
thank God, for now I can tell you
what I wanted to tell you long ago
but dared not until / knew 7 should
be well agai& My dear" very tender
ly "yOu know how long Adam waited
for his Eve-won't you make this
place q ParadIse?' And with a half
sob the girl went into his outstretched
arms.
Boc, TO the cottage a group Of
young folk still sat on the steps sing.
Ing all the old songs TO pass the time
till Eve should return.
'Helo everybody" called out Tom
Murdock, as he went around TO the
back Of the house searching for the
voices. 'Hello, everybodyw he said
again, but HIS eyes sought out Grace,
who was most demurely looking
straight ahead.
"Whorc's Ever" he asked n minute

PLOT ID OFFER KAISER THRONE
 IS FRUSTRATED
Secret Service Men Discover Plot
 to Rethrone Former Kaiser Many Arrested.

i.ONDON.-Despatches received fl; m Amsterdam today state that a lot has been discovered in Berlin to rethrone the former kaiser, by az ents of the secret service, who oy .rheard a telephone conversation anl followed up the clue so ob- ta ned, causing the complete collapse of the plot.
 German munition makers had placed large sums of money at the disposal of the plot leaders, included among whom were General Mack enson, General von Born and Gen eral Count Arnin.
 A great many of those implicated il the plot have been arrested in | Berlin and other cities and, as a re- suit of the disclosures made by some of those arrested and the informa- tion gleaned by the secret service men, the government is in posses sion of long list of suspects who planned to seize the members of the newly constituted government No direct evidence has as yet been discovered of the former kaiser's connection with the plot and the evidence gathered so far also shows that General von Hindenbure absolutely declined to join the plot saying that he intended to retire to private life after the demobilizatior of the German army, of which he is still the head.
 It was discovered that the entire court was in sympathy with the
 plotters. Lieutenant Krupp is re ported to be the financial manager
 of the plot that failed.

FLU INCREASES IN THE STATES
 ALONG PACIFIC
Seattle, Spokane and Portland Have Had Reappearance and Increase
 of Epidemic.

SEATTLE, Dec. 3.-After ample signs of the abatement of the dis ease was noticeable and the modi- fication of the quarantine measures were seriously contemplated, fresh outbreak seems to have occurred in the city and the disease is again on the increase. All of the strin- gent measures taken, some of which were relaxed temporarily, have again been enforced to prevent the spread of the disease. It IS be- lived that a strict quarantine will be established in Seattle until the abatement of the epidemic. The wearing of masks is compulsory
 In the city of Spokane the re- appearance of the disease has ne cessitated the closing of the schools and all places of public meeting once more. All the stringent meas ures adopted to combat the disease when it first made it appearance have been put into force again.
 Two hundred fresh cases are re ported from Portland, and every thing is closed up tight. No public gatherings of any sort will be al lowed in the city.

WILSON INFORMS SOL0NS PRESENCE
 ABROAD NEEDED
President Considers It Paramount Duty to Be Present At Coming
 Peace Conference.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. D. President Wilson, addressing joint sesion of Congress, formally an-I nounced his intention to go to Paris for the purpose of attending the peace conference to be held shortly.
 He said that he considered it his paramount duty to attend the con- ference in person because the gov ernments of the Allied nations had accepted the principles enunciated by him as basis for the peace ne- gotiations. He will be in constant touch by cable and wireless with Congress, he said, and Congress, would be kept fully informed of all the happenings at the peace con- ference.
 He stated that France and Eng land had agreed to remove all cable restrictions upon the transmissioa of news of the conference to Amer ica and that he had taken over the American cable system on expert advice for the purpose of making the unified system valuable. He expressed the hope that the public and Congress will cooperate with him; the constant advice and coun- eel of Congress during the progress of the conference is made possible through the cables and the wireless service.
 Regarding the railroad problem, the President said that he had no solution to offer at present, but thought that it would be inadvisable to permit the railroads to return to the old conditions without modifi- cations.

 ADVANCE INFO
 HUN TERRITORY
Americans Cross the Luxemburg
 Frontier Into Germany; the Headquarters Now Treves.

With the American Army of Occupation--The American army of occupation, under the command of Major General Dickman, entered German territory today from the Luxemburg frontier. They advanced twelve miles into German territory, reaching Ragden and Saarholzbach. The coming of the American sol diers was met by calm silence on the part of the people of the country they passed through, and there were no demonstrations of any kind, friendly or otherwise. Even the children were evidently schooled in the role to play in greeting the Americans.
 The American governor for the i occupied territory established his headquarters in the large city of Treves, on the Mosselle river and about five miles from the Luxem- burg frontier. With the Army of Occupation After their first nights sleep on German soil, our boys are again ready to continue their march to- wards the Rhine, advancing towards
