''Mr. Purvis" took his pay in salts
and stayed with US until my first great
adventure cut him off. 1t came one
July day when was in my sixteenth
year. He behaved badly, and /, as any
normal boy would have done who had
had my schooling In the candle light.
We had kept Grimshaw from our door
by paying interest and The sum of $50
on the principal. 1t had been hard
work to live comfortably and carry the
burden of debt. Again Grimshaw had
begun to press US. My uncle wanted
to get his paper and learn, If possible,
when the senator was expected in
Canton.
So he gave me permission to ride
with Puryis to the post office--a dis
lance of three miles-to get tbs mail.
Purvis rode In our only saddle and

I peered through the bushes. The
light was unchanged. I could see
quite clearly. The horses were gone.
1t was very still. The stranger lay
helpless in the road and a figure was
bending over him. It was man with
handkerchief hanging over his face

and she had grown so fond of me that
my whistled call would bring her gal
Looping from the remOtest reaches of
the pasture. I had named her Sally
because that was the only name which
seemed to express my fondness.
"Mr. Purvis" was not an experienced
rider. My FLY led him at a swift gal
lop over the hills, and heard many
a muttered complaint behind me, but
she liked q free head when we took
the road together, and let her have
her way.
Coming back we fell in with another
rider who had been resting at Seaver's
little tavern through the heat of the
day. He was a traveller on his way
to Canton and had missed the right
trail and wandered far afield. He had
a big military saddle with bags and
shiny brass trimmings and pistol in
holster oil of which appealed to my
eye and interest. The FLY was little
tired and the stranger and I were rid
ing abreast at a walk while Purvis
trailed behind us.
We heard quick stir in the bushes
by the roadside.
"What's that?" Purvis demanded in
half-whisper of excitement. We
stopped.
Then promptly voice-a voice
which did not recognize-broke the
silence with these menacing words.
sharply spoken:
"Your money or your Iife!"
"Mr. Purvis" whirled his horse and
slashed him up the hill. CHANGING
backward, | saw him lose a stirrup and
fall and pick himself up and run as
if his life depended on it. l saw the
stranger draw his pistol. A gun went
off in the edge of the bushes close by.
The flash Of fire from it's muZzle
leaped at the stranger. The horses
reared and plunged and mine threw
me in clump of small peoples by the
roadside and dashed down the hill.

HOW CAN YOU TELL YOUR
FAVORlTE TOBACCO?
As Plain as the Nose on Your
Face-JuSt Smell 1t

Smokers do not have to put tobacco
in their pipes to find out if they like it.
They can just rub the tobacco between
the palms of their hands and smell it.
The nose is an infallible guide to smok-
ing enjoyment.
All smoking tobaccos employ some
flavoring ito improve the favour and
burning qualities of the leaves, to
quote the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Naturally, there is considerable differ
ence in the kind of fiavorings used, and
the nose quickly detects this difference.
TUXEDO Tobacco uses the purest,
most wholesome, and delicious of all
Observation-Disclosures. And the almost
universal liking for chocolate in great
measure explains the widespread popu-
larity of TUXEDO TOBACCO.
Carefully aged, old Burley tobacco,
plus a dash of pure chocolate, gives
TUXEDO Tobacco a pure fragrance
your nose can quickly distinguish from
any other tobacco. Try it and see.

Uncle Peabody. He had started out
to meet me in the storm and Shep was
with him.

shouted. "I'm blind and tired out and

''I'm all right, but these horses are

After we got to the barn door at last
he went to the house and lighted his

in blanket and Aunt Deel came with
him.
How proud IT. made me to hear him
say:
"Deel, our boy is man nOw-made

She came and held the lantern up
to my face and looked at my hands.
"Well, my stars, Bart!" she ex-
claimed in a moment. ~ thought We
would freeze up solid-ayes-poor

We carried the grist in and Aunt
Deel made some pudding. How good
it was to feel the warmth of the fire
and of the hearts Of those who loved
mel How I enjoyed the pudding and
milk and bread and butter!

second peril that OIL Kate spoke Of"
said Aunt Deel as l went upstairs.
Uncle Peabody went out to look at
the horses.
When I awoke In the morning OBJ
served that Uncle Peabody's bed had
not been slept in. hurried down and
heard that our off horse had died in
the night of collie. Aunt Deel was cry
ing. AS he saw me Uncle Peabody
began to dance a jig in the middle

THAT'S the talk! If Necessary We'll

He and Purvis roared with laughter
and the strength of the current swept
me along with them.
'We're the luckiest folks In, the
world, anyway" Uncle Peabody went
on. 'Bart's alive an there's three feet
o. snow on the level an more comm
an it's colder'n Greenland"
1t was such bitter day that we
worked only three hours and came
back to the house and played Old
Sledge by the fireside.
Rodney Barnes came over that after
noon and said that he would lend US
a horse for the hauling.
We had good sleighing after that
and got our bark and salts to market
and earned sos. But while we got our
pay In paper 'bank money" we had
to pay our debts in wheat, salts or
corn, so that our earnings really
amounted to only $3.50, my uncle

bushels of wheat to Mr.. Grimshaw for

PEACE BY EASTER
SAY The ENJOYS
Two Weeks More Required to Re-
wise Treaty, Says Core
Spondent.
LLUYD GEORGE IN STATEMENT
Declares the Great Congress Is Near
ing the End-Asks Public to Have
Patience and Not Judge
Work Now.

Paris, April 7.-"Peace by Easter
or bust is the current slogan here,
meaning that the allies must agree
and summon the German delegates by
April 20. Two weeks more are re-
quired for putting together and revis-
ing the entire treaty.
No final judgment was reached at
Saturdays discussions of the question
as to how the damages done by the
Germans are to be repaired, but the
differences of opinion. it is understood,
have been Whitfield down almost to the
vanishing point.
The same holds true of the Rhine
frontier problem; previous decisions
on which are now being modified by
experts.
Adr.atic Biggest Question.
The biggest question at issue re-
mains that of the Adriatic, but on
this, too, optimists are confident the
negotiations will reach an agreement
before the end of the ensuing week.
What course shall be pursued to-
ward the German delegates when they
finally come to Paris is as yet unde-
cided. Some predict they will be al
lowed to discuss every point. which
would probably take as long as it took
the allies to agree.
Others think the practice observed
in the armistice negotiations will be
followed, which would mean the en-
envy plenipotentiaries would be al
lowed to make few obServa-
tons and then be told please sign"
This much seems certain: If the
Germans are to be allowed to dis
cuss everything new chickering's would
ensue among the allies with regard
to concessions, and in that case peace
would be extremely remote.
League Meet This Week.
One of the big events of the COM
ing week will be a meeting of the
full commission on the league of ma
tons, at which the revised covenant
will be discussed, together with
changes covering the Monroe doctrine
and race equality.
. LET public opinion wait another
fortnight, We are nearing the end"
Lloyd George is quoted as saying in
an interview with a representative of
lie Matin.
agreement will not be long in com
ing on all questions concerning Ger
many" continues the British premier.
"The peace prelminaries will be ready
by Easter"
'But why" asked the interviewer,
"ShOuId not the amount of the war
bill. whatever it may be, be submitted
to Germany before anything else, and
why should she not be compelled to
recognize her debt?"
"Who says we have not decided
that?" was Lloyd Georges reply.
Cant people wait until we have fin
ished? Can't people judge our work
instead of seeking always to judge
our intentions? This conference has
had to meet and discuss matters I'M
der conditions without precedent in
history. All eyes are turned toward
it and, what is more serious STILL all
ears are listening at the door. The
enemy's ears Jingle with JOY when
they think they observe some hesita-
ton, while the ears of our friends,
who hear only confused rumors, in
terpret them badly.
LET public opinion wait few
more days and it will then be able
to form an opinion, not on rumors,
but on facts"
