quiet fellow over draft age. who had
given up a nice, fat salary "a mining
engineer somewhere in the wilds Of
Mexico and enlisted out Of pure pa
triotism. He came to the door Of the
hut and watched the dancera q while:
he did not dance himself. Then 10
saw Allie and he thought that she
was the prettiest little thing that
he ever laid his eyes on. He edged
around the crowd and finally found
courage enough to ask her to sit
out the next dance with him. Allie
had promised it. and she was not i'm
pressed with him enough to give him
much encouragement. Nan, standing
by. saw him turn away in disappoint-
ment. and, not realizing what she was
doing. she began to say nice thinga
to him to make him feel good Nan
just loves for other people to be hap
temptation is to keep from telling
stories to make people feel good She
had the sergeant. pretty soon, sitting
down by her and was promising to
arrange date for him with Allie
II he would let her know when he
could get off and come to town. Man.
fashion. he did not see how different
Nan was from most girls then. but
he went on worshiping Allie and Just
doing for him.
Soon after that Camp Quantico was
quarantined.
When. at last. letter did come from
him. stating that he was coming to
see Allie, unless written not to, 1t
reached Nan on the afternoon of the
evening on which he was to arrive,
delayed from being forwarded. Nan
rushed over to our old boarding house
to meet him. He guessed what she
had to tell him as soon as he saw
her. and. poor boy. it seemed to hurt
him as much as If he had really
known Allie.
That is the preface to the story Of
Mans sergeant.
Chapter number one begins with his
taking Nan out to the dinner and
show he had planned for the little
New Orleans girl. and he entertained
her by telling her that Allie was tho
living image Of his dream girl and
that he had dared to hope for some-
thing more than friendship. He could
not have interested Nan more. and
she listened to him so attentively (and
did not once tell him that his thoughts
were those of every man who saw
Allie) that when he told her goodbye
he asked If he might come again.
Isn't that enough to make an op>
timist out Of any manhater?

Is clear. 1t is the secret order of
the Five KOS or brothers, and the
five cash constitute their mystic sign.
This whole thing is the work of the
brotherhood, and 1t only remains for
US to find out exactly who are in
1t and why they released Ling Took"
You believe. then. that the sedan
Is the special property of the brother
hood and Is used for their secret
meetings%
Most certainly l do. 1t is used
to carry the trusted ones to the
place of meeting. and there Is some
way by which they can enter and
leave 1t without detection; and" he
added with especial emphasis, ut was
by that way that Ling Took escaped.
Go to headquarters tomorrow and ex-
anime the base of the chair, and, es-
pecially the floor boards, and report
to me In the evening at the temple"
1t was late in the evening of the fol-
lowing day when Wang Foo entered
the abbot's private apartment and re-
ported to him the results of his in
vestigation. He had found that in
stead of being securely nailed on as
usual the entire floor boards were in
a solid frame. and that on releasing
two wooden pins, which could be
easily pushed out with the hand, the
entire inner chair could be removed
without touching the rest of the
sedan. He explained it all carefully
to his host.
Exactly what I supposed. So If the
sedan were placed over trapdoor the
chair and Its occupant could slip
through 1T without disturbing even
the curtains. could they not?"
Venerable father, it Is as you say"
The abbott went on: Now. some
where between the magistrates
yamen and the Bridge of the Silver
Cloud that sedan was stopped, and
he added most significantly with a
gesture Of his uplifted hand-"the
chair and its contents went down
through the trap. The prisoner was
then unbound. the knife and the pa
per plunged through the cushion and
the chair returned to it's place again
before the bearers moved on! Do you
see it now?"
Venerable sagacious one. I do"
I'VE need only one link more in the
chain. We must find the exact house
in front Of which the bearers rested
with their burden. We must mark the
spot carefully. for it will not only
give US the clue to the All Sam murder
case. but-which Is Of far greater i'm

FACTS ABOUT
new TAX LAWS
WHAT IS ALL THIS HULLABALOO
OVER TAXES ABOUT
ANYWAY,

The opponents of the League pro-
gram seem to be charging that the re-
cent Legislative assembly has increas-
ed our taxes to an exorbitant amount.
They only state part of the truth,
thereby their claims are pure bunk.
We will take the city of Bottineau
for an example. In the year 1918 the
total tax levy was 1872 mills on the
assessed valuation.
The part that went to the state was
4.3 mills, the remaining 1879 mills
were for county taxes, city and school
purposes.
All the legislature attempted to do
was to incur certain expenses which
will necessitate an increase Of the
state taxes and the state tax only
constitutes 1-18 of the total tax for
all purposes in Bottineau. The man
who pays $500 in taxes pays $1.O0
for state purposes. If that $1.00 be
increased rs per cent which seems to
be what the State Tax Commission
claims, it means in place of paying
$1.00 of the $500 the taxpayer will
have to pay $1.25 for state taxes max
ing the total tax $18.25 instead Of
$500 as heretofore. Even if the state
tax was to be doubled or trebled what
would it amount to as compared to
the benefits derived.
It seems that no one should find
fault with the " mill tax levied to
take care Of our returned soldiers.
Neither should any one criticize the
one mill tax provided for the paying
Of the interest and creating a sinking
fund to pay off the $17,0O0,0 100000
bonds to be issued, as the state will
have these public utilities in place Of
the bonds.
And if the carrying out of the pro-
gram entails some additional expense
of rs per cent or such matter that
does not in any way affect local taxes.
Local taxes are left in control Of the
people at home or their local repre-
sentatives and have not been changed
by the Legislature. y.
If the assessment is increai6d the
rate of taxation will be proportionate-
ly decreased as there is only so much
money to be raised in any case for
county requirements for schools and
for township and city purposes.
A calm analysis Of the situation
will show the utter falsity Of the
claims set forth by those who are try
ing to advocate submitting laws fol-
referending.
