CHAPTER TX.

They got into a cab outside the
door. Perrichet mounted the box,
and the cab was. driven along the
upward-wtnding road past the Hotel
Bernascon. A hundred yards beyond
the hotel the cab stopped opposite to
a villa.
A hedge separated the garden Of
the villa from the road. and above
the hedge rose a board 4 with the
words ITO Let" upon it. At the gate
q gendarme was standing, and Just
within the gate Ricardo saw Louis

party descended from the cab, "in the

"Here?" cried Ricardo in amaze
ment.
The discovery upset all his theor-
ries. He had expected to hear that
it had been found fifty leagues away;
but here. within a couple Of miles OF
the Villa Rose itself-the idea SEEM
ed absurd! Why take It away at all
unless It was taken away as a
blind?
That superstition found it's way into
Ricardo's mind, and gathered
strength as he thought upon It; for
Hanaud had seemed to lean to the
belief that n of the murderers

glance at him showed that he was

SENSITIVE.

The Nonpartisan League managers are exceed
ingly sensitive to criticism. They are even sensi-
tive about a bare Statement of fact without COM
ment of any kind. They have been greatly disturb
ed by the publication m independent papers Of the
facts relating to the disturbance concerning the
control of the Courier News, although the state
ments OF fact were taken directly from the columns
of that paper itself.
The managers have apparently considered it a
high crime for Independent papers even to mention
the fact that a misunderstanding had arisen in
League circles. The cost of that misunderstanding
and the responsibility therefor of persons chiefly
involved have been given practically no attention
at all. It is a minor matter for one group Of League
employees to. accuse another Of wrong doing. but ii
is highly improper for those not within the League
inner circle to refer to the fact that there has been
such controversy.
So far as that particular quarrel IS concerned.

Calls from Ohio.

"I had more calls for advice from
people contemplating suicide in Ohio
last year than in any other state. Per-
haps the depression in the automobile
and rubber business had something TO
do with it."
Scarcely any PEOPLE who commit
suicide are insane, says DR.. Warren.
He declares nearly onc-half of all
suicides are due to sex problems.
Actual rcaGons for suicide, however,
he listed in this order of Importance:
Loneliness, i'll health, evil living, love,
family troubles business losscS-ana
last, poverty.
81 have had the silliest reasons for
suicide given me-" DR.. Warren said.
"a minister was going to kill himself
unless | could find him a rich wife so
he could perfect an invention! A man
being dunned for $5 he owed planned
suicide"
1t has cost the Save-a-Life league
an average of about S. to save 4

1t was suggested that someone with

Playing Same Game.-A free-lance
Journalist found himself on a train
without a ticket and decided to play
the deadhead game. When the con-
ductor appeared he told him that he
had left his pocketbook at home, but
that he was on the staff of The Daily
News. "Al right" said the official,
come forward to the next car.

aboard and he can identify you.
There was no turning back, so the
passenger followed the conductor ex-
pecting ignominious exposure, but to
his great surprise the editor, looking
up from his paper, said simply: Yes,
conductor, that's all right. The man
is on my staff" When the conductor
had departed the free-lace undertook

man for his magnanimous falsehood

Names of Days of Week.-The day

Names of Days Of Week.-The days
Of the week derive their names from
ancient iGolatry. In olden times each
god was worShiped on a certain day.
The sun became deity because OF the
impression it's glorious light and
warmth made upon man. Thus the
day set aside to worship the sun came
to be known as sunday"
The second day of the week, Mon
day. also goes back to ancient heathen
beliefs, for it was the day designed
for the worship OF the moon. Mon
day" comes from the old Anglo Saxon
word Monandaeg, in turn n transla-
ton of the Latin lunac dies. The root
of the word luna means ito shine,
hence its application to the moon.
Tuesday was dedicated to the wor-
ship Of war gods. Tiw in ancient
times was the god Of war. The An
5lo- Saxon name for Tuesday was
| Tiwes daeg. The E in dacg is soft
and the word sounds like daya; hence
it's resemblance to the present name
is more clear.
Wednesday was sacred to Odin, OF
Wooden, the supreme deity of the Sean
dinavians. He is identified with the
Roman god Mercury and the Gree'
god Hermes. Odin was the god OF
wisdom, poetry and war, as well as the
god OF the death and q god of agricul
ture. He was represented as a man
with hat and staff and with but ont
eye.
Thor the Scandinavian god Of thun-
der, the son Of Odin, gave Thursday
it's name. Thor was described rs =
vigorous youth, with red naif and
| beard who rode through the heavens
in a goat drawn chariot armed witt
hammer (the thunderbolU that re-
! turned after being thrown.
Friday. also derives it's name from
Odin's family. Frigu, the goddess D
marriage, was Odfn's wife. Our
word comes from frigedaeg, meaning
| love day. The goddess Frigu, accord
ing to legend. presided over mans do
mestic life and held dominion il
heaven and over the abode of the dead

DAMS RIVER TO HUNT RING
Woman Loses Jewels While Engaged

THE WONDERFUL sUNFLoWER
Commonplace Plant is Useful as Well
as Ornamental.

The sunflower, although it originat-
cd in this country, in the great plains,
is not used here so extensively as in
some other countries, especially Rus
sia, in normal times. 1t is a long
time since the plant first delighted
the eyes of Europeans, being then cui.
tivated in the gardens of Madrid. The
early Spanish explorers had found It
in this country and taken 1t home
with them.
The plant was utilized by the Am
erican Indians long before the days
of Columbus. When Champlain WIS.,
tied the Georgian Bay in 1915 he
found the natives growing it ard using
the oil for their hair. 1t was raised
chiefly, however, for the food afforded
by the seeds.
In Russia the seeds have always been
eaten in immense quantities, raw or
roasted. as peanuts are in this coun-
try, and tbe oil obtained by pressing
the seeds is an important article OF
diet The frequent religious fast days
in that country restrict the use of
meat and lead to the consumption Of
manufactur Of sunflower oil is always
of considerable dimensions. The best
seeds yield an oil which compares far-
orably with olive oil.
of a,,n
flowers are held to be quite equal to
most nuts in respect to palatability
and wholesomeness. The stalks and
dried leaves are highly priced for fuel,
being in some parts of Russia almos;
the only available Substitute for WOOD.
An acre of sunflowers will yield many
cords of good fuel.
The oil appears to possess more OF
the general properties OF olive oil than
takes about n hushel of seeds to
make a gallon Of oil and 80 bushels OF
seeds can be grown on one acre of
land. AS the oil sells for more than
81 gallon the profit is large.
or late years purified sunflower oil
has been used extensively in the adul-
teration of olive oil. 1t is of n pale
yellowish color and decidedly pala-
table. in crude state it is used by
Islintels to some extent, but it is in
ferior to linseed oil for use in paint.
In addition to the oil from the
seeds the stalks, when green, and the
oil cake make excellent fodder. The
fiber of the stalks, which Is fine, sill
ky and very strong also has value.
In China it is woven into beautiful
fabrics and 1t is believed that by the
use of proper machinery it might be
utilized most profitably in the United
States.-New York Herald.
