says the trend Of newsprint across
the ocean will have to be in the con-
trary direction. Speaking to the
Editor and Publisher, Mr.. Dodge
said:
"If present conditions continue
the publishers will have to go to for
eign countries for paper The gov
eminent and the publishers are
driving the newsprint business out of
the United States.
" In the past ten years no new
mills for newsprint have been erect
ed. In that time only two com
panies, the International and the
Great Northern, have materially in
creased their output. In the last
two years many mills equipped for
making newsprint have gone to
making other kinds of paper

been expected in happier times.


"Some of the manufacturers are
even now saying that they think Sc
fiously of turning their machines to
the production of other grades of
paper, Notwithstanding the fact that
since hostilities ceased consumption
of several kinds of these papers has
fallen off and that last month a num-
Der of mills producing board, wrap
ping, manila, ETC., were shut down
for considerable periods for lack of
orders.
"To aggravate the situation, there
is the menace Of export. South
America is sadly in need Of news
print, and is willing to pay high
price for it. Some South American
countries refuse to allow their YES
sells that touch at American ports to
return without some print paper in
cargo. England is suffering from a
shortage, and France, Belgium and
Italy are in almost desperate straits.
The United States has always been
an importer of newsprint, never
having produced enough for us
needs. AT present bottoms to carry
any considerable amount to other
countries are not available. 1t is
predicted that when they are the al
ready short supply, which has been
growing during the past year, VIII
be farther depleted by exports in ex-
cess of the unusual high figure of
$4,000 tons a month. 1t is unneces-
sary to say what will happen then
to those American publishers who
cannot even now assure themselves
that they will get enough to keep
their presses running during the
coming year.
Notwithstanding, Phillip T. Dodge,
president of the International Paper
company, who as a rule expresses
the sentiment of the manufacturers,

AswELL READY TO APOLOGIZE.
Author of Bill Taking Over Telegraph
 and Phone Lines Sorry.

Washington, April 7.-Representa- duced the bill which led to the gov ernment's taking over the telegraph and telephone lines, is sorry for what he did and is going to apologize to congress for his action.
 "I am the author" said Mir. Aswell today, "of the resolution that was made the basis of the existing law taking over the control of the tele- graph and telephone wires for the duration of the war. I believed in. it heartily and worked for it faithfully, but l am very frank to state that am greatly disappointed and discour- aged to note the increase of 20 per cent ordered on telegraph rates. 1 am not yet ready to admit that any such increase is justifable or neces- sary.
 "This means the death knell to gov ernment control or ownership of tele- graph, telephone and railroad lines. I owe it to my people and to Congress to apologize for my resolution if gov ernment control means increased rates"

CHAPTER XXI.
The RaInbows End.

The journey to the coast was made by easy stages and Esteban' stood ii fairly we'll Jacket, of course, went along. Upon the announcement of O'Rellly's intended departure for the States he had promptly abandoned Cuba to her fate. He foreswore her utterly and declared himself a loyal American citizen.
 Relying upon the best information obtainable at Cubitas, O'Reilly had counted upon securing a sailboat from a certain fisherman whose sympathies were known to be loyal. but In this he was disappointed. The party arrived at It's destination, tiny clearing on an unfrequented part of the north shore, only to find it deserted and al- ready grown to weeds. The house was empty, the boats were gone--all but one old hulk, too rotten to warrant moving, which lay high up on the sand, It's blanks worm-eaten, It's seams wide spread by the sun.
 O'ReilIy was in quandary. He gravely doubted Esteban's ability to stand the rough return Journey, and when he spoke to Norine of turning back she was panic-stricken at the sug- gestion.
 ''No, no r she cried, anxiously. "We must get him away. Ills heart Is set on going through and 1t would-kill him to go back"
 "Then guess we'll have to go through" he smiled.
 For the first time in their acquaint- ance Norine lost control of herself.
 .Promise that you won't go back" she implored him.
 "very well, if you'll consent to risk this miserable tub we found on the beach"
 'T'll risk anythlng-a raft, even. Is there an even chance of our getting across2"
 "Perhaps. It all depends upon the weather"

 It was O'Reillyl
 Dumb with amazement, blind with tears, Norine found herself staring up- ward into his face, and heard him say ing:
 q told you I would bring her home" :"
 The next instant she lay upon his breast and sobs of joy were tearing at her.
 The story of Rosa's rescue came slowly and in fragments, for the news of O'Reilly's return caused sensa- ton. His recital was interrupted many times. "As a matter of fact, our get away was ridiculously easy" he said, flor we had luck at every turn-regu- lar Irish luck. I made Morin fnde- pendent for life. but it wasn't the money, it was Jacket who induced him to bring us clear to Turiguano. He landed us one night, this side of the Moron trocha. Since then we've waded gwamps to our armpits. we've fought the jungle and chewed bark-but we're here." Johnnie heaved deep sigh of relief.
 "Where did you get the money to hire schooners and corrupt captainsT Branch inquired.
 O'Reilly hesltated; he lowered his voice to a whisper. We found the Varona treasure"
 Norine uttered a cry. Not Don Es- teban's treasurer
 "Exactly. It was in the well where young Esteban told us 1t was"
 Johnnie produced from his pocket handful of coins.
 Branch's eyes bulged. he touched gold piece respectfully, weighed 1t care fully, then pressed 1t to his lips. He rubbed 1t against his cheeks and in his hair; he placed it between his teeth

 T haven't the strength to refuse," Hbteban murmured. "And yet, how can I leave Cuba7 What right have I so accept happiness and leave Rosa"
 This was a subject which Norine dreaded, question to which she knew no answer. She was not in a mood to discuss 1t, and made no attempt to do so. Instead, she laid the invalid upon his pillow, saying:
 'Teslie is waiting to wish you joy and quick recovery. May ask him in?'
 She stepped to the door, only to be- hold her late companion making off down the village street in great haste and evident excitement. Approaching between the drunken rows of grass huts was little knot of people. Even as Norine watched 1t grew into con siderable crowd, for men and women and children came hurrying from their tasks. There were three figures in the lead, man and two boys. and they walked slowly, ploddingly, as If weary from Q long march.
 "Estebani" Norine cried in a voice she scarcely recognized. She retreated into the doorway with one hand upon her leaping heart. "Estebanl Look 1 They're coming-here Yes It's-it's O'Reillyi'

 Many who suffer from backache and weak kidneys are unnaturally .rrl- table, fretful and nervous.
