An
Adventure
Romance


when the weary Herbert dared to in.
terrupt.
"Please, Mr.. Randolph, the officer
on the beat says the grass is lifting
your cab, sir, and he thought he
ought to report anything like that"
Tell him to undo the check and let
1t feed itself down again." grOwled Mr..
Randolph.
The day passed; night fell. Now

youth of this nation had forestalled all

corner Or some other convenient base
Of supplies and returned to set new
money to catch old. But Mr.. Ran
dOlph had no occasion to do this. His
heap of chips and cash Of the realm
rested IN too solid q base Of its own.
There may be recorded an amusing
diversion from the serious business in
hand. 1t was ushered in by the crest
fallen Herbert, who confessed that ac-
tual physical exhaustion had driven
him to forty winks, during which time
a professional purloiner of motor-car
accessories had stopped, spellbound by

stolen the prepOsterous clock, and was
now on the club steps offering to set
tie with whoever was the interested
gent on a fifty-ffty basis.
Great was the CONSERVATION Of the
enterprising Spectator in theft when he
was confronted by two persons in one;
namely, Mr.. r. H. Randolph, lessee
of Car No. 1898, and Mr.. II. II. RAN
dOlph, alias Slim Hervey, the irate
driver Of said cab. His glib tongue,
loaded to the gills with arguments as
to how much the fare would save
through the sudden exit Of the clock
from the ken OF man, tripped hopeless
ly on this vision Of wrath in the shane
Of q driver in whose interests the tick
er had been faithfully shaving.
1t took Mr.. Randolph just thirty-two
precious minutes TO force the crest
fallen n to replace and readjuSt the
busy bee of meter readings. When he
returned to the fray upstairs, he no.
tINCu tiNI phenomenon VI DOhtI-
age, unmistakable age, had settled on
the faces of the five youths. He put
his fingers to his own c~Ountenance; he
could feel the added years.
The game ended, as do all titanic
battles. In absolute silence. Mr.. Ran
dOlph sorted. stacked. tabulated his
winnings, and stuffed them into all the
pockets on his person. He then noted
the hOur-eleven o'clock of a bright
Thursday mOrning)apd, proceeding to
the nearest telephone booth, called up
Mr.. William Verries of VerrieS & Cat,
stock brokers'.

Randolph. William, I've got sixteen
thousand dollars in my jeans at the
moment Of speaking. What's the low
est margin you'll give me to sell Anal.

"Sell Anal. l. S. & c. short !" gasped
Mr.. Verries. "Why, you're crazy!

EXTRA MILK FED STOCK.
Massachusetts Producers Claim Price
Is Too Low for Delivery.

Westfield, Mass.-Milk production
has reached a state where this pro
ducers are unable to dispose Of their
product at the present scale of prices,
and are feeding it to their livestock.
The retail price varies from 13 TO Is
cents a quart. and in spite of the de-
mand there has been no movement by
dealers materially to decrease the
price and insure a greater demand.
Many producers on the outskirts of the
city claim that only 8 cents a quart
will be paid for extra production by
the large dealers, and this price is a
losing proposition.
Efforts have been made TO increase
milk consumption. School children
found under weight have been sent
rome wearing tags advising their par
ents to use more milk, but parents
to buy more than what is alb
sOlutely necessary for the table.

Observation-Disclosures of "all-day

the five per cent excise tax on candy
eliminated and the lawmakers put

lion and more long enough to take up
the pennies and nickels and dimes
that go for candy.

Five minutes later, his cab was car
rying, in he persons of Mr.. Morgum
above mentioned, and another, the pO
tential pivOtS of very t~ight-veSted in
tereStS to the tune of twelve billion
dollars. 1t may be thought that it was
Slim Hervey's intention to watt this
precious pair to some bOSky retreat,
cover them with leaves, and hold them
for ransom, but such was not the case.
He desired nothing from these two
potentateS among q race Of lucre
giants beyond what might come to him
through his ever-Open speaking slot.
This is all he heard:
"Lewisfader Is getting kind Of
fresh"
That's what I been thinkin'."
"When?"
"What about Friday, when the Bun
kers-Bollweevil report comes out?"
Good idea! Friday 1t is"
Not another word, but, as 1t hap
pened, 1t was enough to start Mr.. Ran
. dolph hOnking uptown the moment he
had dropped his laconic fares at their
next board meeting. No one had to
tell him who Lewisfader was; he had
been to college with that financier's
son, and if there was one thing above
all others that said offspring vas good
at, 1t was blowing his fathers horn.
Lewisfader was this and Lewisfader
was that, but principally and especial
~ he vas the central rock in the money
maelStrom known to the stock market
as ANAL. l. S. & c." which had only
lately dared to swell its pOrtentOuS
belly in the company of the most de-
veloped and vicious saurians of the
financial world.
All the way uptown, Mr.. RandOlph's
face was concentrated In the nearest
approach to q frOwn Of which II was
capable. He was not, however, weigh
ing the substance of what he had heard
this way and that. for the simple rea-
o that the moment the n word.
"Lewisfader," had reached his ears. he
had seen the great light and grasped
his bunch beyond any thought Of look
ing back. That part Of 1t was settled:
what worried him now was the amount
Of ways and means in his pocket. BY
thinking very hard, he added up his
capital without bringing it forth to the
light Of day. The exact sum vas six
ty-eight dollars and fifty cents.
No n had he passed the test in
mental arithmetic than he drew up a
little beyond the front door Of the Rock
ct club. He started to leave his cab.
paused, considered. and then deliber-
ately lowered the flag. AS he entered
the lobby Of the club, four sCandalized
fronts leaped to bar his way. They
asked him a variety of biting queS-
tons: Did he think 1t was a night
lunchwagOn? Which chambermaid
was he calling on? Was he looking for
Mills hotel?
Herbert" rOared Mr.. Randolph.
The fu%nctionary named, head door
man for the Rocket club since first 1t
started on its appropriately meteOric
career, leaped from his dignified seat
on the somnolent side lines and stared
wide eyed at the servile apparitlOn
that had dared shout the open sesame
TO that inviolate portal.
"Mr. Randolph" he gasped at last,
and the stunned fronts started to stink
away.
Hold on, there!" said Mr.. Randolph,

Cleaning Up Orchard
Prevents Mice Injury

Field mice which frequently in
jure young trees and even those sew
eral years old by gnawing them near
the ground, may be eliminated for
all time from the orchard by clean
culture in and about the trees, ac-
cording to specialists in the Horti-
cultural Department Of the College
of Agriculture. These mice make
their natural home in runways under
old matted grass and among weeds
and rubbish along fence rows. The
cleaning up of the orchard will de-
stroy these runways and expose the
mice to their natural enemies, such
as hawks and owls.
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1921-05-12

Housewives need not worry about
next winters supply Of jams and
jellies because of recent freezes
which have threatened decrease
in fruit production, according to J.
s. Gardner, extension specialist in
vegetable growing from the College
Of Agriculture. Fortunately there are
many vegetables which may be sub
stituted for fruits and berries in the
making Of preserves. There is still
time to arrange for including these
in this years garden.
The tomato is one Of the most
common vegetables which may be
made into delicious marmalade.
Either ripe or green tomatoes Of the
regular planting or the yellow pear
or yellow plum varieties may be
used. These latter varieties are bet
ter suited to the purpose because Of
their mild flavor which makes it ad-
visable to grow them expressly for
preserving. The husk tomato or the
ground cherry is also excellent in
this respect and requires nothing ex-
traordinary either in garden soil or
in treatment.
Carrots make an excellent con-
serve with a flavor which is surpris-
ing even to people who think they
do not like carrots.
The rinds of watermelons and
cantaloupes may be transformed
into spiced pickle so good that the
housewife will include them even
when the supply of fruit is plenti-
full. Citron is another vegetable
