HAVE A LESSON IN FRENCH
Family and Friends of Young Indian. apolis Officer Learn the Meaning
 of Sans Origin"

The son of prominent Indianapolis business man recently received com mission and was called for service in France, relates the Indianapolis News.
 The family and many friends of the young lieutenant were anxious to learn of his safe trip across, and the father received many inquiries about his sons welfare during the weeks of si- lenee following his departure.
 Finally eablegram was received and the word was passed around that the soldier boy had landed safely. Someone thoughtfully inquired just where the eablegram came from, and close inspection of the message re- vealed what was thought to be either the port of landing or the headquar- ters of American troops. It was writ ten plainly enough, across the top of the message-"San Sorigin." Specu- lation was rife; office associates brought out aliases maps and encyclo- pedias were consulted to find out, If possible. whether the young officer was near the scene of activities, at port, or in the south of France. Finally someone with d knowledge of French spoiled all the fun by informing the eager group that Sans origin" was the French equivalent to somewhere, :" or, literally, without origin. The ca- bie operator who had copied the mes sage had merely divided the letters in the two words at the wrong place.

CHAPTER VII.
Each in His Own Trail.

CINCE nothing in this world is abso- lutely immutable = the human
 emotions least of all perhaps Billy Louise did not hold changeless her broken faith in Ward She saw it broken into fragments before the evi- dence of her own eyes and the frag- ments ground to dust beneath the weight of what she knew of his past things he had told her himself. So she him, and her heart went empty and aching through the next few days.
 But. since Billy Louise was human and woman-not altogether because she was twenty-she stopped after awhile. gathered carefully the dust of her dead faith, and, like God, she be- gan to create. First she fashioned doubts of her doubt. How did she know she had not made mistake there at that corral? Other men wore gray hats and rode dark bay horses: other men were slim and tall. and she had only had glimpse. after all, and the light was deceptive down there n the shadows. When that first doubt was nodded and she had breathed into it the breath of life so that it stood sturdily before her she took heart and created reasons, whole company of them, to tell her why she ought to give Ward the benefit of the doubt. She remembered what Charlie Fox had said about cireumstantial evidence. She would not make the mistake he had made.
 So she spent other days and long, wakeful nights. And since it seemed impossible to bring her faith to life again just as it bad been, with the glamor of romance and the sweetness of pity and the strength of her own in- noeenee to make 1t beautiful faith indeed. she used all her innocence and all her pity and a little of romance and created something even sweeter than her untried faith had been She had a new element to strengthen it. She knew that she loved Ward. She had learned that from the hurt it had given her to lose her faith ill him.
 That was the record of the inner Billy Louise which no one ever saw. The Billy Louise which her little world knew went her way unchanged except in small details that escaped the no- tice of those nearest her A look in her eyes for one thing; a hurt. ques- tioning look that was sometimes re-

 It's a wonder that the kiss did not wipe out completely the somber mood that held him. That it did not, but served merely to tangle his thoughts in most hopeless manner. perhaps proves how greatly the inner life of

Two Thinqs Worth Having.

Growing plants are healthfal in two ways. First, they absorb carbon diox- ide given off by the lungs of persons in the house. and give off pure oxygen to the air. Second, the evaporation of moisture from the foliage and from the porous flower pots is one of the best ways to prevent the harmful dry ing out of air artilicially warmed. You can't have too many plants or too many children in the house.

Won AINTzE GETS PLACE
Succeeds Won Kuehlmann as
German Foreign Secretary.
Considered Most Notorious Master OF
Intrigue in German Diplomatic
Service.

London, July IA pan-German VIC
tory is interpreted in the resignation
of Foreign Secretary Won Kuehlmann,
finally confirmed.
This view is strengthened by the
report that Admiral Won Hintze will
succeed Mr.. Kuehlmann as he not
only is close to the kaiser, but is a
friend and supporter of Admiral voa
Tirpitz and Admiral Schroeder, lead
ers of the Belgian annexationists.
However, it is considered here that
a pan-German foreign minister is not
so dangerous to the Allies as one of
the Kuehlmann type, who masked Ger
many's plan of conquest under con-
tinual tricky peace offensives, giving
Allied pacifists debating material.
London newspapers devote consider
able space to discussion of Won
Hintze's history. He is generally char
acterized as the most notorious master
of intrigue in the German diplomatic
service. .. -":. ..

dipatches received here, Ukrania is
in state of countrywide revolution.
The Germans are pouring in rein
forcements, which now have reached
q total of 42O, 900 men.
The peasants have several small
armies of $1,000 to 10000 each, all
we'll armed with artillery and machine
guns. These are defending the vii
lagos and whole sections of trenches.
The fight Is not of political char
acter, but is due chiefly to the sur
render of land by the Germans back
to the landlords. Homestead sections

This revolution, together with the
increasing power of the Czecho-Slo-
