SHIP EARLY
CAMPAIGN

A "Ship Early" campaign is, being
waged up and down the coast by
agents OF the United States Railroad
Administration, who hope thereby to
avert the winter congestion OF traffic
and lessen the demands that will be
made upon the railroads during the
season OF heavy shipments. How the
public may assist in the campaign is
pointed out by the traffic officers;
Cd Industries should store during
the present summer months sufficient
material to meet their needs for the
coming winter.
~ Wholesale concerns and dis
tribt,tors, should persuade customers
to take Immediate delivery of goods.
60 Encourage the use wherever
possible of additional storage space
for factory products nearest the point
of ultimate consumption.
ca Fuel oil consumers should
stock up for their own protection.
60 Hold question of early move
ment and storage OF lumber for COM
mercial purposes in allegiance for the
present.

A. R. c. HEIFERS.

Cattlemen with large herds on the
western range are preparing to reap
rich reward for the Red Coss the COM
ing winter. Practically every range
has few heifers branded ARC and
these are being fattened for the Janu-
airy Stock show in Denver. After
receiving the inevitable blue ribbons
these ARC heifers will probably be
sold and resold many times. The for
mer governor of Colorado, Elias M.
Ammons, predicts that hundreds of
thousands of dollars will be realized
for the Red Cross through this, move
ment Many stockmen have announc-
ed their intention of keeping few
ARC branded calves for this purpose
throughout the war period.

A statue of William III. stood in
St. James Square. Around this statue
the Y.M.C.A. has erected its hut. The
wings radiate from the statue like the
spokes, OF a wheel At the present
time there are 100 bedrooms but pro-

have paid visits to the building which
is known as Washington Hut"
Even the grass plot upon which the

The demand was so great that they
had to be taken off the menu. None

hours, but in spite of this, thousands
of pancakes, with syrup, are served
daily between meals.

Keeps Romance a
Secret to His Death

Norwich, Conn. Jan. 4.-Men in
the office of the North British and
Mercantile Insurance Company in
New York City will be surprised to
learn that their old time manager,
thet late Henry Eckford Bowers.
cherished a secret romance through
out his long and active life.
Mr.. Bowers was a native of Nor
wich. Back in the days before the
Civil War, when his family resided in
the unpretentious section of Norwich,
known as THE Falls" young Bowers
was a student. at Norwich Free
Academy, graduating with the class
of 1862. His vacations were spent in
work of different sorts, sometimes in
OFFICES in the neighboring mills.
Poor, but proud" when he fell in
love with the daughter of Christopher
Z. Brand, who had amassed what
was then considered a large fortune
through his invention of a whaling
gun and bomb lance, he kept his
secret to himself.

Diane came into the sickroom
stripping her gloves after the walk.
Macdonald smiled feebly at her and
fired the first shot of his campaign
to defeat the enemy.

ne asked weakly.
The keen eyes of his hostess fast
ened upon him. Captured What
do you mean? 1t was Gordon Elliot
that brought you in and saved your
life"
Brought me from where?"
From where he found you uncon-
scious-at the ford"
That's his story, is it?'
The young woman stood with her
gloves crushed tight in both hands.
II was her nature to be always a
partisan. Without any reserve she
was for Gordon in this new fight
upon him. What had Wally Self
ridge been saying to Macdonald =?
Did the mine owner mean to sug-
gest that he had identified Elliot as
one of his assailants? The thing
was preposterous.
And yet-that was plainly what he
had meant to imply. If he told
such a story things would go hard
with Gordon. In court it would
clinch the case against him by sup
plying the one missing link in the
chain of circumstantial evidence.
Diane, in deep thought, frowned
down upon the wounded man, who

young Bowers had then little hope of
climbing.
Through his attractive personality
and gentlemanly manners Henry
Bowers got employment with the
Norwich Fire Insurance Company, of
which Ebernezer Learned was the
treasurer That gave the ambitious
boy his first real boost toward sue
cess.
When Mr.. Bowers died his estate
was left subject to the life use of his
widow. Her death during the early
months of the present year has freed
the money for distribution.
Meantime, Susie Brands parents
and other relatives had died. the
family fortune had dwindled through
business reverses and Miss Brand
had left her native Norwich home
TO make her home in Springfield,
Mass, where she has kinfolk.
When the will of Henry e. Bowers
was read, it showed that he had left
over $4,000 to the old school where
he had received his education, the
Norwich Free Academy, a good sum
to the ancient Otis Library and the
Eliza Huntingdon Memorial Home
for worthy Episcopal women in the
city of Norwich, generous bequests
to a number of cousins, and to Miss
Sue Brand share of his estate suffi-
cient to restore her to that place of
comfort, even luxury, to which she
had been accustomed. She inherits
much of the wealth of the man who
vainly loved her in their youth.

To Win Respect
DEAR MISS FAIRFAN.


l am young lady, twenty-one en-
gagged for about a year to a young
man about twenty-three. While his
father never showed a paternal af-
lection for him before he met me,
two years ago, he has been since
came into his sons life. feeling, or
showing, strong antipathy for the
boy, as well as a repelling antagon-
ism toward me. The reason is pri-
marily that his father wanted him,
and is still insistent to marry o. GER
tain other girl. Love, however, de-
creed that his heart should belong
to me. His father once grossly,
without provocation, insulted me,
and considering the fact that he is
ignorant and lf-opinionated, l am
not very much surprised at the con-
ditions. Neither my friend nor / talk
to his father, who hates not only the
sight but the mere mention of n
friend, apparently for no other rea-
son but the "disobedience" in ques-
ton. Miss Fairfax, as I intend short
ly to get married, is there any pos
sibility of our winning, under the
circumstances, at least the good
grace or respect of my intended
father-in-law? What, if anything,
are we to do-how are we to guide
ourselves in this matter? j. L.
While you continue to take your
bitter and critical attitude toward
your sweetheart's father, there is
practically no chance for either one
of you to win his regard. Love be-
gets love. If you are sincere in
your desire for the respect of your
intended father-in-law, why not go
to him simply and sincerely ask him
to let by-gones be by-gones, and tell
him that Won long for a hannV nnit-
ed household. While you are think
ing in terms of hatred, calling this
man ignorant and opinionated, gloat-
ing over the fact that you won his
son in spite of him, how can you eX-
pect to attract his liking?

The Easiest Way
To End Dandruff

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de-
stroys it entirely. To do this, just get
about four ounces, of plain, ordi-
nary liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it in gently with
the finger tips
BY morning, most If not all, OF
your dandruff will be gone, and three
or four more applications will COM
pletely dissolve and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace of it, no
matter how much dandruff you may
have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and.
look and feel hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drugstore. 1t is inexpensive, and
four ounces is all you will need. This
simple remedy has never been known
to fail

Advice to the LoveIorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Is It Wrong?
Dear Miss Fai


a, b and G are friends. B is
twenty-five years old and a married
man. A and c are single girls Every
Sunday A meets b at church and
later B sees A home, as ne lives
near her. Now Miss Fairfax, c con-
demns A for allowing b to accom-
pany her to church and later seeing
her home, b being a married man.
is c doing right to condemn A when
A and only see each other on
Sunday mornings. b knew A before
he was married. ANXIOUS.
There doesn't seem to be any par
ticular harm in this situation, unless
AS own conscience tells her that
she is using her church to masque
her ttirtations. Just why does the
mans wife not accompany him? Is
he sincere worshiper or is he
making a deceitful and contemptihle
use of a house of worship?

seemed already to have fallen into a
light sleep. She told herself that
this was some of Wally Selfridge's
deviltry. Anyhow, she would talk
it over with Peter.
The reason Wally was so pleased
with himself was that he had
dropped n hint into the ear of the
wounded man not to clear Elliot of
completely in the attack upon him.
The news that the special investi-
gator had been arrested for rob-
berry and attempted murder, flashed
all over the United States, would so
far to neutralize any report he might
make against the validity of the
Macdonald claims. If to this could
be added later reports of an indict-
ment, a trial, and possibly a con-
viction, it would not matter two
straws what Elliot said in his Off
cial statement to the land office

FOR A BAD COLD

Get small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea at any pharmacy. Take
a tablespoonful of this hamburg tea,
put a cup of boiling water upon it,
pour through sieve and drink q
teacupful at any time. It is the
most effective way to break a cold
and cure grip, as it opens the pores,
relieving congestion. Also loosens
the bowels, thus breaking a cold at
once.
It is inexpensive and entirely veg
etable, therefore harmless.
