Old English Furniture.

That fine old furniture is yet found
in Britain in many unexpected places
Is said to be largely due to the stir
ring UP of the country that was given
by the great exhibition at London Of
1851. This was soon after the devel-
opment of the railway system in Eng
land, and there f1ocked to London, a
large number of squires and their
wives. A new world had opened to
the country DANES. The new things
had a wonderful fascination for them.
On returning home they got rid of
much Of their old furniture and
bought new. Much of the Did furni-
ture found its way to secondhand
shops, and was sold to poor folk. who
could not afford to buy new. This &C.
counts for the finding today of much
good old furniture In small houses In
provincial towns and among country
people.-Indianapolis News.

Suppose we send 10000 bombing air
planes V e Germany. They alone will
not win the war. Ten thousand or
fifty thousand tanks alone will not win
the war. A thousand land battleships
or a thousand other fearful land cruis-
ers alone will not win the war. Rain
ing death and destruction upon the
civil population as a rule has only one
result: 1t infiames the people to
greater deeds, to greater sacrifices, to
greater hate, to greater determination
TO win the war. France, England and
Italy are shining examples of this. No,
any n invention is not likely to win
the war. Some day, perhaps, someone
will invent an atomic ray which is
capable of ~pulverizing whole regiments
at a stroke. Nothing of this sort is
impossible. But it is not very prob
able. Rmher it Is the whole-hearted
devotion of the noncOmbatantS to q
great and just cause that will win the
war. The nation that can throw into
the scales the greatest amount of war
implements, the heaviest weight of
metal, the greatest amount of fighters,
coupled with a ~prodigious use of all of
the best war Inventions, Will win In
the end-providing that every man and
woman behind the lines constantly
thinks and dreams of war and victory
and is prepared to put every last ounce
of strength as well as all worldly be-
longings into the righteous u with
out stint or restraint. The greatest
war invention is the fiery. undying will

CHAPTER w.

And the years passed, and Mark
Wallace grew grayer and older, and
more set and dispirited, with long al
t~ernating intervals of resignation,
when he took life as he found it and
was satisfied. But he always came
out of these into brief periods of I'M
rest, with the sense hat he had awak-
ened from some lethargy that was
damning his soul as the alkaIi and the
+ winds of the plains had scanned his
face and taken the last particle of his
youth away.
Now in Texas, now in Arizona, now
In some lonely border post in the
freezing Northwest. he remained a cap
tain. He had no friends in Washing
ton. In time-in long time he would
reach his majority, no doubt, to be re-
lieved 500 after, and waddle, with
stout old majors of his own age. INTO
ornate clubs in army centers not quite
so far removed from civilization. He
looked upon this prospect with ~ironical
patience, and now and then asked
himself the unanSwerable question
why he had remained in the army.
Eleanor was grown up and donnciled
permanently in Colonel Towards town
house, and her letters had grown more
infrequent and perfunctory, until their
arrival became a quarterly affair in
stead of a monthly event, and not al
ways that, either.
And by and by the feeling came
over Mark that If ever he were TO see
her again there would remain no COM
mon link between them. From doubt
ing his future he had come to doubt
himself. He doubted whether the des-
ert life had not blunted him. blunted
his finer instincts, and made him unfit
for social life-certainly rendered him
unfit for the guardianship of a young
girl.
But that he had ~relinquished to Col
Onel HOward-grudgingly but uncOm-
promisingly. Never in any of his let
tiers did he put forward the shadow
of his former claim.
Then, swiftly, and unexpectedly,
chance turned and beckoned him.
The Aberdeen weekly. [volume] (Aberdeen, Miss.) 1878-1933, 1918-11-29

yearly letters had always assumed too
much for granted. Mark had practf-
cally relinquished Eleanor to the Ma
jor, and he had never learned anything
about her that he had really wanted to
know. He had not imagined the pre-
c%ocious. high-strung, idealistic girl
whom he now saw. He knew h the
disclosure of her fathers dishonor, if
ever ii came about, would shock her
into a revulsion of feeling hat would
be fatal to the true development of
her character.
He had often wished that he had not
pressed that idea OF the regimental
mascot upon the major. 1t had been
born in a mind attuned to the victory
Of teat bloody day; in normal mo-
ments he would never have enter
tanned it. Yet Major Howard had
been more impressed than he had adj
mitted to Mark. The Idea had
spread through the minds of the other
officers. There was never d Guard din
ner but Eleanor was solemnly toasted,
though she was not permitted to be
present, and somehow the child had
become q symbol in the minds of these
plain men in business and professional
life who spent two weeks in camp
each year.
After the war Mark had gone to the
regulars; but he was still in touch
with the officers of the SEVENTEEN, and
he knew that, if ever war came, he
could obtain an appointment to it.
II am sure that my father will prove
to have been a brave soldier" said
Eleanor, clasping her hands eagerly.
And sometimes she continued, Il
think that there must have beer a
great mystery about him."
"Why?" demanded Mark, startled.
Because of the man who watches
for me-"
Watches for you? 1t is magma
ton, Eleanor"
She shook her head. 1--WE seen him
three or four times" answered the
girl. HE waits at places that we pass
when we go out together. And he
watches me then, though he never at
tempts to speak to me-"
And you've told Miss Harper?"

shrewdly.
Mark could see that, but he was
certain that it was hysteria, that the
idea had come to the child as the re-
suit of brooding owe the mystery of
her parentage. The entrance of the
lady principal put an end TO their con
versation. Mark rose reluctantly. His
visit had been all too brief, and it
might be years before he saw the girl
again.
well, Eleanor. this is au ~revoir,"
he said. Perhaps for years"
She looked at him in sudden alarm.
You are not coming back before you
leave for the West, Uncle Nark?" she
asked.
They won't allow me the time. I
have to go TO Washington tomorrow,
and then back to Texas"
She returned no answer, but went
with him to the house door. and turned
and faced him there, pulling at the
lapelS of his coat.
"Send me a new photograph. Cap
tain Mark" she said. I'm not going
TO call you Uncle Mark any more"

ing. though he had a strange sinking

home to him, and he had been home

"You must forgive me-" she said, a
little wistfully. Captain Mark,
there's something ! want awfully to
say to you, but 1t takes a lot of cour-
age" she added.

Mark. you know. my dear, / want

And If Major Howard won't give 1t to
you, you just let me know. He has as
sumed the responsibility for your up
bringing. and I'm going to have the
fun Of giving you pleasure"
Its something that Major Howard
can't give me, Captain Mark"
Can II"
"Yes," she said In a low voice, pull
ing at his coat. and suddenly raising
her eyes to his. Mark Wallace saw thu

She a gone In a flash, running
along the corridor, while Mark Wal
lace stood dumfounded at the door,
hearing her footsteps grow fainter as
she hurried into the recesses Of the
Misses Harpers' School for Select
Young Ladies.
Mark went down the walk like a
man dreaming. 1t va absurd it was,
perhaps, characteristic of the girls age
and temperament; and yet, in spite Of
the a~bsurdity, Captain Mark Wallace
felt as If he had suddenly regained
the grimy little child whom he had
found upon the hillside in front of
Santiago, and lost again.

Borino Pole Holes.

The tiresome and time consuming
work of digging holes for telegraph
and electric service poles Is now at an
end, says Scientific American. At least,
there has been evolved a gasoline
driven earth-boring machine which
makes an average boring time per hole
of one and one-half to two minutes.
The equipment is mounted on a horse
drawn truck and is operated by two
men. In ordinary soil it maintains an
average of 100 holes per day, each
measuring five feet deep by "a inches
In diameter. The equipment consists
of q truck, which carries a gasoline en-
CINE, driving mechanism and a huge
auger which is slowly rotated and fed
downward. The augers are furnished
IN sizes from 2 to "a inches.
