THE SHORT STORY

Forbes and the subject matter of the
articles deeply interested her. FREE
quently she would pause and ask some
intelligent question; then would ensue
discussion. Meanwhile Aunty Kate
was sympathetic in good cause and
pretended to be deeply interested in
the Bently family history.
So things went along, Major Angre

the evenings visit. and the nurse only
enduring her days because Of 1t. But
1t took another bad storm to bring
them both to a realization Of whittier
they were drifting. All day, all night
and still another day the sodden
downpour continued. Mrs. Bently,
of course, wouldn't venture out. And
when, rather late in the evening OF
the second day. she had gone to bed
and to sleep, utterly worn out by her
constant railing against fate, the
nurse took the chance to slip out to
the beach for breath OF fresh air.
The rain had almost ceased. Miss
Forbes stood In the darkness watch
ing light streak In the clouds to the
eastward. Suddenly some one ap-
peared out of the night and stood be.
side her Even in the starless night
she knew him.
"This makes twice you have ap.
ueared to me out of the darkness"
the young nurse said, very softly.
The blind man started at the sound
of a voice so near him and put out his
hand instinctiyely in the direction
from whence 1t came. 1t fell on the
girls shoulder and he kept 1t there
as he answered: you have entered
like a ray Of light into my darkness.

THE MAKING OF
A FAMOUS
MEDICINE:
How Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
Is Prepared For
Woman's Use.

A visit TO the laboratory where this
successful remedy is made impresses
even the casual looker-on with the rei-
ability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman's ills.
Over $50, 900 pounds Of various herbs
are used annually and all have to be
gathered at the season Of the year when
their natural juices and medicinal sub
stances are at their best.
The most successful solvents are used
to extract the medicinal properties from
these herbs.
Every utensil and tank that comes in
contact with the medicine is sterilized
and as final precaution in cleanliness
the medicine is pasteurized and sealed
in sterile bottles.
1t is the wonderful combination of
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in its preparation
which has made this famous medicine
so successful in the treatment Of
female ills.
The letters from women who have
been restored to health by the use of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound which we are continually pub
fishing attest to its virtue.

state council of defense to authorize
the advance payment of 80 per cent of

Big War Garden Becomes "Piggery."

Twenty acres near Glendale, Ohio, do.
mated for community garden project,
proved unwieldy, and the Glendale Gar
den club called in the county agent, He
advised abandonment of the garden pro
ject. putting the entire tract in corn and
getting enough pigs to provide hoof
market for the crop. So the garden club
turned over its interest to a new organ
ization called the Glandale piggery. A
farmer agreed to put the 20 acres in corn
on shares, and from him the club bought
40 pigs with the understanding that he
would maintain them until the corn crop
was harvested and then feed them on the
clubs share Of the crop. The club got
nearly 500 bushels of corn as its share
and this corn is being fed to the pigs
which are making gains that promise
substantial contributions to the clubs

Loose smut, which reduced the wheat
yield of Shelby county, Ind, more than
100000 bushels this year, meaning a loss
of more than $4,000 to the farmers, is
expected to be wiped out in that county
within two or three years as a result of
the combined efforts of the county agent
and farm bureau A central treating
station was established and 200 bushels
of seed wheat were treated this fall by
the hot water method for the purpose of
obtaining a strain of pure, disease free
seed. The treated seed was distributed
among 40 farmers, Next year the wheat
from the 40 treated plots will be sold as
seed to other farmers in the county, and
they in turn will sell their disease free
seed to others. The treating work will
be done on more extensive scale next
fall. In the course of three years, ac-
cording to farm bureau plans, loose smut
will have been eradicated and the aver,
age yield Of wheat in the county should
be increased at least two bushels an acre.
This county grows 10000 acres of wheat
annually, and such an increase at present
prices will add over $3.50, 900 to the value
OF the crop.

WEEKS FINDS
MUCH FAULT
Massachusetts Senator Crit
icized the War De-
partment
FOR MANY ERRORS
IN CASUALTY LISTS
Thinks the Red Cross Was
Hampered in It's Work
of Mercy

Washington, D. G., Jan. 2,-The war
department was sharply criticized in the
Senate to-day by Senator Weeks of Mas
sachusetts, Republican, for delays and
errors in compiling casualties among the
expedtionary forces and for failure to
cooperate with the Red Cross in for
warding letters from wounded soldiers to
relatives in this country
Criticism was directed especially at the
Office of the adjutant general of the
army, Senator Weeks saying that Major
General Mccain, the adiutant general
who retired last summer to command q
division and who was succeeded by Ma
jor General Harris, should have been re-
tanned.
Senator Weeks declared the war de-
partment's information as to casualties
often had been wrong.
During the week ended Dec. a." he
stated, ''the Red Cross received an aver
age of 20 letters a day from parents who
had been advised by the war department
that their sons had been killed on q spe-
fitII hdAts III tNtiN pIt Oh lUtHF GASES
the parents wrote that they had received
communications from their boys subse-
quent to the date given by the war de-
partment, II seems almost miraculous
that so many errors could have occurred
in cases of this kind"
1t also was worth nothing, the senator
continued, that in sending the reports of
casualties to families the department
simply stated that the individual had
been killed or wounded without further
explanation.
THAT work" he added, has very prop
crly been taken up by the Red Cross, and
il is testified that in the neighborhood of
10000 letters week have been sent to
the families Of those killed or injured,
giving the facts relating to the death or
condition of the injured man."
Describing Red Cross methods, Senator
Weeks said that agency in August locat-
ed in French hospitals 200 American sol
diers reported missing by the war depart
ment. These men, he declared, had com.
municated with he Red Cross, believing
that through il their relatives would
learn of their condition, but the informa-
ton never was transmitted because Of
an order by the department prohibiting
the mailing of such letters. Meanwhile
the relatives had no knowledge as to the
location of the men, though later the or
der was modified and the agency permit
ted To forward the letters entrusted to its
care.
Adjutant General Harris, he explained,
was not responsible 70. the order.
One of the most glaring errors shown
in the lack of coordination between the
war department and the Red Cross serv-
ice" the senator said, rs found in the
fact that hospital lists we're not, until the
latter part of November of this year, fur
