few were like 10 Papo we saw yester-
day, who knew only the year his father
was lost; but the time always was the
time that the A1iwaka disappeared"
Disappeared" she repeated. Her
veins were pricking cold. What did he
know, what could any one know Of the
Miwaka, the ship of which nothing
ever was heard except the beating Of
the Indian Drum? She tried to make
him say more; but he looked away now
down to the lake. ~
"The Chippewa must have come in
early this morning." he said. "She's
lying in the harbor; I saw her on my
way to the telegraph Office. If Mr..
Spearman has come back with her, tell
him I'm sorry I can't wait to see him."
"When are you going?"
"Now."
She offered to drive him to Petos-
key, but he already had arranged for
a man to take him to the train.
She went to her room after he was
gone and spread out again on her bed
the watch-now the watch of Captain
Stafford of the Miwaka-with the
knife and coins Of more than twenty
years ago which came with 1t. The
meaning Of them now was all changed;
she felt that; but what the new mean
ing might be could not yet come to
her. Something of it had come to Alan !;
that, undoubtedly, was what had so
greatly stirred him; but she could not
yet reassemble her ideas. Yet few
facts had become plain.
A maid came to say that Mr.. Spear
man had come up from his boat for
breakfast with her and was down
stairs. She went down to find Henry
lounging in one Of the great wicker
chairs in the living room. He arose
and came toward her quickly; but she
halted before he could seize her.
whats wrong, dear?"
"'Alan Conrad has been here. Henry"
"He has? How was that?"
She told him while he watched her
intently. "He wired to Buffalo about
the watch He got reply which he
brought to me half an hour ago."
"Yes?%
"The watch belonged to Captain
Stafford who was lost with the MI
waka, Henry"
He made no reply; but waited.
"You may not have known that 1t
was his; I mean, you may not have
known that 1t was lie who rescued the
people Of the Winnebago, but you must
have known that Uncle Benny didn't. .
"Yes; knew that, Connie" he an
swerd evenly.
'"Then why did you let me think the
watch was his and that he must be-
dead?" (.
That's all's the matter7 You had
thought he was dead. ISbelieved 1t was
better for you-for every one-to be-
lieve that"
She drew little away from him,
with hands clasped behind her back,
gazing intently at him. There was
some writing found in Uncle Benny's
house in Aston street "a list Of names

their lives upon the lake. Wassaquam

Insect Kills Boil Weeyil.

Pee Dee Advocate.
A bug that kills the boil weevil has
been found. He has been found in
Marlboro county and caught in the
act. He was found by Mrs. Floyd
Prevatt near Lester last Saturday on
quilt in her yard, with his bill
thrust into a boil weevil and holding
the impaled weevil up in the air,
sucking the life out of it.
Mr.. Prevatt put the bug into bot
tie with several boil weevils and the
bug Immediately attacked them by
sticking his bill into their backs and
sucking them to death. Several
weevils were killed in few hours.
This weevil killer is about a half
inch long and a quarter inch or more
wide. He is black with a small yel-
low spot in the middle of his back,
and yellow fringe on his wings. He
has a long bill, tucked back under
his throat when not in use. When in
action this bill is thrust into the
weevil, as the weevil punctures a
cotton square.

ARTIFICIAL STOMACHS.
Department of Agriculture Is Using
Them for Test Purposes.

Experts of the Department of Ag-
riculture have developed an 'artif-
cial stomach to test the digestibility
of foods. A glass jar is used instead
Of the human tummy.
''It is now possible to determine
the digestibility of protein in foods
and whether it is necessary to cook
them without conducting feeding
tests, thus saving much time and ex-
pense'', the specialists assert.
By the use of certain laboratory
apparatus, it is explained, it "is pos
sible to initiate at least part of the
digestive processes.
Here is the plan:
t'The proteins to be tested, those
from beans, for instance, are placed
in LASS containers in a dilute solu-
tion OF hydrochloric acid, similar to
that f.~1.7 normally in the stomach.
Tht .loyer quantity Of pepsin is
aided. and the mixture is placed in
an uc"bator, where the temperature
is Kept al the same point as that of
the human stomach, about 81 de-
aces ( grade.
After a certain number of hours
ti,e contents of the container are
sampled and analyzed. The digestive
effect is measured by the ratio of
what is known as amino-nitrogen to
total nitrogen. BY rushing through
cooked and uncooked protein from
beans it is possible to determine
which is thu more easily acted upon
by the chemicals in this artificial
stomach, and consequently by the
stomach itself.
after the food has been acted
upon by the pepsin and hydrochloric
acid, it is treated with trypsin and a
dilute alkaline solution, as nearly as
possible like the digestive juices
found in the small intestine. The
second process tells the investigator
what the probable digestive action on
any particular food will be in the in
.testine''
The department experts assert
that the F'art:fcial stomach" will tel
if one pro Elm is more digestible thar
another and whether it is more diges
tible when cooked or raw.

A SuInmer Bargain.

It was a summer evening and the

the inscription:
"If Winter Comes Special Next

dripping brow. "Ah'll gibe mo n dat.

Kill 1923 Boil
WeeulLs During Fall
&C. A. Whittle, Soil Improvement
Committee.)

COmm1CCSS.J
One of the most effective steps II
boil weevil control is the early de-
struction of cotton stalks. Just as
soon as the cotton can be harvested
20 into the cotton field and either
turn under the cotton stalks or rlI
them up with a plow. The object is
to destroy the cotton plants.
Weevils can not feed on dead COT
ton stalks. When their food is de-
stroyed they migrate to where they
can feed or else go into winter quar-
tiers. Whether they are thus driven
away from your farm or driven into
winter quarters the probabilities OF
their damagin you again next season
are greatly reduced.
Over most of the cotton belt IL IS
possible to gather the cotton early
enough to permit of the destruction OF
the cotton stalks three to four weeks
before a killing frost will destroy
them. Three to four weeks earlier in
going into winter quarters means
that death of weevils from starvation
and cold will be greatly Increased.
It is the last weevils that go into
winter quarters that cause damage in
the cotton corp the next year. If all
of these were starved out by Destroy
ing cotton stalks early there would,
of course, be an end of the weevil.
While one can not expect that cotton
will ever be destroyed early and
completely enough to accomplish a
complete eradication of the weevil, it
is true that to the extent that this is
done the number of weevils and their
damage will be reduced.
Chopping down stalks leaves stubs
that sprout new growth on which the
weevil can feed; therefore, the only
safe way is to uproot the stalks or
else, with the aid of drag chain,
to turn them completely under the
furrow slice.
knowing that many cotton farmers
do not plow deep enough to cover up
cotton stalks, the safest general ad-
vice is to uproot the stalks with
plow and to watch that no new
growth starts up.
AS long as there is green cotton
growth left in the field, the weevil
will be found.
1t will crawl into lock of cotton or
half opened burr to keep warm and
come out when the sun shines to feed
on the green stuff.
Don't burn the cotton stalks. Let
them lay on the ground. When the
ground is plowed they can be turned
under where they will decay and add
the organic matter which the soils so
much need.
Why not organize community
wide. or countrywide movement for
the early destruction OF cotton stalks?
1t means less trouble from the weevils
next year.
