boken.
This particular discussion dwindled
to an out-and-out argument which
generated some heat, about whether
women were as resourceful as men,
and If not why not, and If so why so.
The last straw was Walters assertion
that women are dependable on men in
emergencies, whereupon Lucille told
him that she would prove that she
in particular was not dependent on
any man and never would be.
Men overestimate their impor-
lance" she acclaimed. They are not
In the least essential to a woman's
success or happiness. You're one Of
those narrow minded beings that think
a woman can't do anything for herself.
You disgust me. that's what you do.
I wouldn't have such a man hanging
around the house. Kindly forget my

The reporters at the wreck were so
busy asking questions Of trainmen and
doctors and scribbling notes that nei.
Their noticed the other. It was not un
til they got ready to leave that they
became aware of each others pres
ence, and then 1t was only through a
mishap.
"Tl get the story in for the second
edition and scoop the Tribune" said
Walter as he scrubbed one last un-
readable note on some folded CODY
paper and thrust 1t into a pocket.
At the same time the whistle of the
relief train sounded and Lucille knew
she must get aboard or be left. She
was not far from the train, but In Or
der to get to 1t she had to scramble
over eope wreckage. In so doing she
slipped and fell to the ground, a sharp
pain darting through her foot. Invol-
unfairly she uttered a slight cry, and
1t was heard by Walter, who was
standing a short distance away, look
ing around In vain for the automobile
that had brought him to the scene of
the wreck.
He hurried to her and found her
huddled on the ground. When he saw
who 1t was that had suffered the sc-
cident he hesitated a few brief sec

His voice made her curious to know
In whose arms she was resting. Hith-

eyes and they met two gray blue ones,
and then her mouth Strengthened out

Just Why Men Become Bald.

Each time man lifts his hat his
head experiences a sudden change Of
temperature, and 1t Is this constant
heating and cooling Of his head, accord
Ing to recent medical writer, which
causes the hair to drop out In the
long run.
1t is very seldom that soldiers go
bald early, for they do not raise their
hats, but salute.
Women, too, never 60 bald so soon
as men that is because their hats are
retained on their heads when they are
out Of doors, and are only taken off
when indoors.
Another reason why men 60 bald
is said to be because they so often
wear their hair clipped close.

November was styled by the ancient

which are SO prevalent at this season

First American Legislature,


The first colonial assembly to en-
Joy the right Of initiating legislation
was the Maryland assembly, which
convened in 1885 aud was composed of
representatives of the whole people
8 purely democratic legislature. In the
beginning every adult male citizen was
permitted to sit In the assembly, but
with the increase In population 1t was
found necessary to limit the number,
although there was still no legal re,
striction on the number Of delegates
the people might send.
Under the charter Lord Baltimore
had the power of enacting all neces-
sary laws for the colony, with the
advice, consent and appreciation of the
freemen Of the province" The assem-.
bly, demanded the right Of initiating
legislation, however, and this was
granted by Lord Baltimore in 1893,
and the following year the assembly
met and enacted the first statutes of
Maryland. In their law-maktng the
pioneer Marylanders were entirely In
dependent Of the British parliament
and enjoyed a greater degree Of au.
tonomy than any other English colony.

The holdup man drew a gun and

his finger felt for the trigger before
Jack was in mid -air in wild leap for

had gone, and his master was leaning
over him frightened but unframed.
Witnesses of the attempted holdup
went in pursuit Of the robber and his

the store, but lost track Oh them in the
darkness. The police were notified and
general search was begun at once.
At late hour this afternoon the of
ficers had uncovered no clue to the
whereabouts or the identity of the

In the meantime Mr.. Canavan was
doing everything in his power to save
the dog that had saved his life. The
bullet had struck the terrier in the head
but not IN place to cause immediate
death. A veterinarian was called and
everything possible was done to save
the life of the little hero. All night
Mr. Canavan cared fos him. He dressed
his wound several times and brought
water when he seemed thirsty. For a
time it seemed that the dog might sur
vive, but toward morning he grew
much worse. Fearing that he might
become violent, his master called the
veterinarian and asked that he put him
out Of his misery. It was done pain
lessly-with strychnine.

he painted laboriously or whined pite

was not at all ashamed to be doing
what he could to relieve the suffering
of {" a mere dog
There was reason. Like others, de-
