had been much in her mind during

The ride at last was ended. 1t had

her room n tried to plan what to do.
The sight of Scathlin worried her. If
the old man knew what papers the
wallet had contained he probably knew
the significance of each. The conve
sation she had overheard seemed to
includ him in the plot, II plot there
was, against Holt. OF course, since
he had returned. he would seek out
the other two men and explain why he
had sent the wallet; and perhaps he
had the other missing paper himself,
the one that contained valuable infor-

have known it was in the wallet when
he gave it to her and it would be on

Finally, after careful thought, and

Eachmanufacturing operation must
be done with expert skill and scientific

take care of our intricate problems.
Alert wisdom and judgment must

Hoodoo Shin Redeems Herself.

The American transport Sierra,
which steamed into harbor recently
carrying more than 1900 wounded
soldiers. is a ship that "came back"
according TO stories told by Old-timers
who follow the sea. A dozen years
ago she raInmed a coral reef in the
south seas and was, apparently,
wrecked beyond hope of salvage. If
the stories told about her are correct,
she has crashed into vessels anchored
in harbOr. but she has sailed serenely
through the mined waters of the Eng
lish channel and evaded the German
submarines on the high seas as she
carried the troops to France. So she
has evened the score and lifted the
spell.
Incidentally, despite her misfor-
tunes, she is a comfortable ship and
garded as unlucky and it was almost
impossible for her owners to get a
crew. When the war broke out the
Sierra broke her spell of misfortune
and performed her share in driving
autOcracy and militariSm into exile.
Any sailor viii tell you that ships
have a personality. The Sierra just
cascades personality and tempera-
ment. Having shown the world what
she could do in the line of tantrums,
she reformed. She has made money
for her owners, despite her accidents,
and has an excellent record in the
service of her country.

BUREAU OF MARKETS
is MOST RELIABLE
Information Given Relative to
Chicago Stock Market.
So Accurate Have Estimates Been
That Shippers and Farmers in All
Sections Place Utmost Conf
dence in Reports.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture)
Communication has been voiced by
live stock farmers and the trade con-
corning the work of the United States
bureau of markets in issuing all tele-
graphic information of a public or
commercial character relative to the
Chicago live stock market. Previous
to the last few months such reports
were sent out lpromiscuously by pri-
vate individuals who, in some cases.
we're accused of manipulating the re-
ports in favor of one interest or an
other. At least, this sentiment per-
vaded the trade to the extent that the
live stock industry was injured by the
mere existence of such opinion.
It was on this account that Uncle
Sam was requested TO collect facts and
figures daily about the market condi-
tions and receipts and TO disseminate
this authentic information as widely
as possible by telegraph. The daily
market reports include an estimate of
the daily receipts of each class of live
stock, this Delng one or the important
features of the service, as trading at
Chicago is based to large degree on
the Chicago run" Furthermore, the
trading on the outside markets is also
determined more or less by the vicissi-
tudeS of the Chicago trade Hence il
can he seen readily that any serious
discrepancy in the estimate of GER
tain day compared with the actual re-
ceipts, whether intentional or acct
dental. might influence the entire days

stock centerS.

cuiiar; Horse Thieves SummariIy
Dealt With.

The Little Russian costume became
fashionable for women In the Ukraine
AFTER the formation of the republic;
req boots, short skirt, allowing the en-
Droldery Of the chemise to be seen;
pretty apron; jacket without sleeves,
around the neck large beads of many
coiored glass, always In great num-
Ders. The married women wear on
uelr heads a kind of fichu arranged
as diadem, the unmarried girls a
SIMPLE Ukraipian kerchief, the be-
trothed, flowers.
1hey have an amusing custom: az
Ter the marriage celebration the whole
procession goes to drive, adorned with
broad red ribbons; even the horses are
abundantly provided with them. That
Is sign of the brides virtue. If the
contrary is the case, she has neither
ribbons nor music, not even a white
veil, because the pope refuses to bless
the marriage
The Little Russians are very super
stitious. At midsummer they light
large fire of ferns. The young people
jump over the fire. Those who succeed
in not touching it will marry within
the year. If anybody puts it out, it is
a sign of death. Everybody tells for
tunes with cards, predicts what will
happen in the future On the eve Of
Saint Andrew somebody places mys-
teriously under the bed a pond and a
bridge Ca saucer filled with water and
few pieces of wOod). Without know
ing it one sleeps ION the bridge" Then
one may be sure that the dream of the
night will come true If one wanted to
act according to the rules one ought to
spend the night on a bridge above a
real pond and look at the water; there
you would be able to read your whole
future life.
In the country some of the old bar
barian customs are still in force; the
kOnOkrades, or horse thieves, are con-
demned to be quartered, or to be at
tached by a rope to a horses tail and
dragged until death follows.

Millions are now suffering from the
after effects of the deadly FLU"
fever or a cold. Their appetites are
poor; they are weak. and they are
waiting for their strength to come back.
If these people could only realize
that the return to health and strength
would be greatly helped by giving at
tention to the StOmach-that is, remOv-
ing the acidity and toxic poisons from
the entire digestive tract, making 1t
act naturally, so that the body will
receive the full strength of the food
eaten-a great deal of suffering would
be saved to humanity.
Everyone knows that the disease it
self, and the strong medicines that
have been taken, upset the stomach,
leave it hot and feverish the mouth
dry, the tongue coated. nasty taste,
and no desire to eat. This is a poor
foundation to build new strength on.

over this country are using EATON1C
for the purpose of cleaning these
poisonous after-effects right out of the

SAFE, GENTLE REMEDY
CLEANSES YOUR KIDNEYS

For centuries GOLD MEDAL HARLEM
Oil has been standard household remedy
for kidney, liver, bladder and stomach
trouble, and all diseases connected with
the urinary organs. The kidneys and blad-
der are the most important organs of the
body. They are the filters, the purifiers of
your blood. If the poisons which enter
your system through the blood and stom-
ach are not entirely thrown out by the
kidneys and bladder, you are doomed.
WEAKNESS, sleeplessness, nervousness,
dependency, backache, stomach trouble,
headache, pain in loins and lower abdo-
men, gall stones, gravel, difficulty when
urinating, cloudy and bloody urine, rheu-
matism, sciatica and lumbago, all warn you
to look after your kidneys and bladder.
All these indicate some weakness of the
kidneys or other organs or that the enemy
microbes which are always present in your
system have attacked your weak spots.
GOLD MEDAL HARLEM Oil Capsules are
what you need.
They are not "patent medicine" nor
