PROPHET WITHOUT HONOR.

1t is a question with all the ear
marks of a platitude but why dc
the people of small town unceas-
ingly and forever knock any one Of
their members who strives to better
himself?
A young man ventures into pro
fessional lines and all the gossips
discuss his audacity and predict his
failure unanimously. Generally he
succeeds. Almost anyone with aver
age brain power and large quanti-
ty of push can occupy a professional
position. There are many positions
high up waiting, not for genius, but
a capable and trained brain to oc-
cupy them.
Franklin has turned out many a
boy who occupies position of
prominence, and Franklin is proud
of them. YES" boasts one citizen

The reflection of glory in this in
stance is very desirable thing, yet
the time has been when the success
full mans ambition was an object of
speculation, wonderment and scorn.

America must forge ahead.

A year or two ago hundreds Of
thousands of our people were buy
ing German marks, expecting to get
rich quickly by buying at what was
then considered the low cbb and sell
ing out again when the rise came.
But the rise didn't materiaize. In
stead, the price of marks is now
only fraction of what it was then.
And they have either pocketed their
losses or are still holding the bag.
It is not our purpose to tell people
what to do with their money. That
is their business-certinly not ours
But as a loyal American citizen we
feel justified in suggesting that
there is no better investment than
good sound American stocks or
bonds. Six per cent in pocket is far
better than hundred per cent in
imagination or anticipation.
Your money invested in American
securities keeps American people
employed and American business on
the up grade. When thrown to the
birds it is wasted. Even they can
not eat it. Think twice before in
vesting once and you will be able to
retire much earlier in life.

for she hau seen him. Mr.. Mouse
knew by the switching of her tail, as
well as by her big eyes. There was
no place to run for shelter. 1t was all
open around him. so he dashed off
without knowing where he was going.
But luck was with Mr.. Mouse that
day. as you will see. He was on a
almost frozen over, for right In the
middle of that pond was one very thin
place.
Mr. Mouse did not know about this
thin ice. of course. but it was his lucky
day. you see, so right across the pond
he ran, with Madam Puss after him.
Mr.. Mouse was very light and Madam
Puss was plump, for she had been
we'll fed.
When they came to the thin ice, over
went Mr.. Mouse safely. But. alas
poor Madam Puss 1t was hard enough
anyway trying to chase mouse over
the ice. but when she came to the
thin place it cracked and in went her
front paws. and for II minute 1t looked
very bad for poor Madam Puss.
Mr.. Mouse found it hard to run over
the ice, but he did not stop when he
heard the cracking. He kept right
on and reached the bank on the other
side and up he went.
He was pretty cold, as well as
scared, and when he came to place
where he could run in he did not wait
to look it over. and as it was his lucky
day he found he was in house where
there was plenty of food.
Mr.. Mouse was soon nibblng away
in the pantry and thinking himself
very fortunate to have found such a
nice place for his new home when a
| great disturbance in the kitchen made
him stop and peek through Il crack in
the door.
There was the very Madam Puss
who had chased him and the cook
making great fuss over her because

did you get so wet and cold? You shall

She was wholly unable To gain on
the fire. Only by dint of the most
heart breaking toll was she able to Sc
cure any dry fuel for it ut all. Every
length of wood she cut had to be
scraped of bark, and half the time the
fire was only sicllly column OF white
smoke. 1t became increasingly dill
cult to swing the AK. The trail was
almost at its end

gers were numb.

saplings but she stumbled and almost
went to her face at the first blow. 1t
was the instant that her gray watch
ers had been waiting for. Tie wolf
that stood nearest leaped-a gray
streak out of the shadow-and every
wolf in the pack shot forward with a
yell. 1t was short, expectant cry ;
but it chopped off short. For with n
half-sob, and seemingly without men

fired

Device Overcomes SleepIessness

No one need suffer from sleepless-
ness any longer. A device has been
invented which, 1t is claimed. will
send the worst case Of insomnia to
the land of nod in a few minutes.
The machine, which in appearance Is
rather complicated, consists of num-
Der of discs which, when the starting
handle is moved, rotate in opposite
directions. All that the sufferer has
to do is to keep his eyes on the discs
as they turn, until after a short spell
of watching he gradually sinks into
sound sleep.

CHAPTER lil-Continued.

Good evening, Cranston." he said
pleasantly.
Cranston was also upon his feet the
same instant. His instincts were en-
tirely true. He knew If he leaped for
his rifle, Dan would be upon his back
I'm an instant, and he would have no
chance to use it. The rifle was now
out Of the running as they were at
about equal distances from it. and
neither would have time to swing or
aim it.
Dams sudden appearance had been
SO utterly unlocked for, that for mo-
ment Cranston could find no answer.
His eyes moved to the rifle, then to
his belt where hung his hunting knife,
that still lay on the pallet. Good
evening, Falling he replied. trying
his hardest to fall into that strange
spirit of nonchalance with which
brave men have so often met their ad-
versaries, aud which Dan had now.
I'm surprised to see you here. What
do you WANT"
Dams voice when ne replied was no
more warm than the snow banks that
reinforced the lean to. II want your
rifle-also your STOW shoes and your
supplies Of food. And I think I'll take
your blankets, too"
"And / suppose you mean to fight
for them?" Cranston asked. His lips
drew up in smile, but there was no
smile in the tone of his words.
you're right" Dan told him, and
he stepped nearer. mot only for
that, Cranston. We're face to face at
last-hands to hands. I've got knife
in my pocket, but I'm not even going
to bring it out. It's hands to hands

perhaps you've forgotten that day
on the ridge?' Cranston asked. "You
haven't any woman to save you this
time"
81 remember the day, and that's part
of the debt. The thing you did yester-
day is part of 1t, too. It's all to be set
tied at last, Cranston, and l don't be-
lieve could spare you If you went to
your knees before me. You've got a
clearing out by the fire-blg as prize
ring. Well go out there-side by side.
And hands to hands we'll settle all
these debts we have between us-with
no rules Of fighting and no mercy in
the endI"
They measured each other with their
eyes. Once more Cranston's gaze stole
to his rifle, but lunging out. Dan
kicked 1t three feet farther into the
shadows of the lean-tO. Dan saw the
dark face drawn with passion, the
hands clenching, the shoulder muscles
growing into hard knots. And Gran
ston looked and knew that merciless
vengeance-that age old sin and
Christless creed by which he lived
had followed him down and was
clutching him at last.

MIR. MOUSE'S GOODLUCK

TT HAD been cold and Mr.. Mouse
had almost starved, for in the house
where he made his home In the
vail there was little to eat, the family
having gone away for the winter.
At first Mr.. Mouse did not care. he
VAS the only mouse in the house, ana
here were plenty Of crumbs and bits
If food left by the careless cook. Then
when those were gone he found shoes
ma many other things that he could
aat, even though he would not have
chosen to eat them If there had been
plenty of other things.
But at last there came day when
there was not one thing he could eat
n that whole house. He was sure,
