CHAPTER XVI.

Paying his court to the ex-schOol
mistress on the next day, Hardymar
made such excellent use of his op
portunities that the visit to the STUD
farm took place on the day after
His own carriage was placed at the
disposal of Isabel and her aunt, and
his own sister was present to confer
special distinction on the reception
of Miss Pink
Miss Pink held forth on education
to Mrs Drumblade in the parlor,
while Hardyman and Isabel were on
their way to a paddock at the farth-
est limits Of the property
II am afraid you are getting a lit
tie tired" said Hardyman. "Won't
you take my ARM"
Isabel was on her guard; she had
not forgotten what Lady Lydiard
had said to her. mo thank you,
Mr.. Hardyman; l am better walker
than you think"
Hardyman continued the conversa-
tion in his blunt resolute way. II
wonder whether you will believe
me-" he asked, eff 1 tell you that
this is one of the happiest days of
my life?"
Il should think you were always
happy" Isabel cautiously replied,
having such pretty place to live in
as this
Hardyman met that answer with
one Of his quietly positive denials.
"A man is never happy by himself"
he said. HE is happy with a com
panion. For instance, 1 am happy
with you"
Isabel stopped and looked back.
Hardyman's language was becoming
little too explicit. Surely we have
lost Mrs. Drumblade and my aunt ?"
she said. Il don't see them any
where"
"You will see them directly; they
are only long way behind" With |
this assurance, he returned, in his
own obstinate way, to his one object
in view. Miss Isabel, l want to
ask you question. I'm not ladies'
man. I speak my mind plainly to
verybody-women included Do
you like being here today?"
Isabeps gravity was not proof
against this very downright question.
I should be hard to please" she
said, laughing, "if 1 didn't enjoy my
visit to the farm
Hardyman pushed steadily forward
through the obstacle of the farm {
Q the question of the farms mas {
err "You like being here" he re-
'eated. do you like me?"
This was serious. Isabel drew {
ack little and looked at him. He {

THE TONSIL QUESTION

Shall my child who has had al
occasional sore throat have the ton
sils and adenoids removed? This
question should be met by every par
ent truly interested in the future
health of his children.
To bring the subject to a point
the dogmatic statement is made that
every one over the age of five who
| has had two attacks of sore throat
such as to put him in bed should
have the tonsils and adenoids re-
moved. By removed" is meant
completely removed, not merely
clipped or burned.
The above statement holds good,
no matter how small or how pink
and normal the surface of the ton
sils may look during the period fol-
lowing the attacks of sore throat
Very often only very small amount
of the surface of the tonsil is seen
on examining the throat, the major
portion Of the tonsils being hidden
under the other throat tissues.
Original Function Uncertain
Consider first the nature and
structure of the tonsils and adenoids
and see wherein their danger lies.
Their original function is uncertain.
They may have been intended. to
act as filters of disease germs. At
any rate they do pick up lot of
disease germs. Continuing the COM
parison with filter, you know that
filter becomes dirty and has to be
cleansed or its usefulness is lost and
it serves no longer to purify but
to contaminate further. Unfortu-
nately, we cannot take out and |
cleanse and replace our tonsils;
when they become clogged with dis |
ease germs they lead to a formidable
array of diseases which cannot be
cured until the tonsils are removed 7
because the tonsils are the source
Of the poison pouring into the blood.
ihese poisons are carried by the
blood to distant parts of the BODY
md lead to great variety of COM
plants. These are known as the
oxic results. They are many and
7aried and frequently hard to rec
'gnize as due to disease of the
onsils.
Among these complaints, acute
nd chronic rheumatism and "heart
rouble' are probably most common.
should be generally known that
lseased tonsils are responsible for l

Il oughtnt to have wanted re
minding; but I have so many things
to think of at the farm And l am
afraid l must be getting old; my
memory isn't as good as it was.

used to carrying ladies'; she would
be just the thing for you. Did l
beg you to give my best compliments

are looking! our air here agrees
with you. 1 hope I haven't kept
you standing too long? 1 didn't
think of it in the pleasure of meet
ing you. Goodbye, Miss Isabel
goodbye till tomorrow"
He took off his hat to Isabel, nod
ded to Moody, and pursued his way
to the farm
Isabel looked at her companion.
His eyes were still on the ground.
Pale, silent, motionless, he waited
by her ike dog, until she gave
the signal of walking on again to-
wards the house
you are not like yourself, Rob-
ert," she said. why is it? What
are you thinking OFF,
He was thinking of the bright
blush that overspread her face when
Hardyman first spoke to her; he
was thinking of the invitation to her
to see the stud farm, and to ride
the roam mare; he was thinking of |
the utterly powerless position in
which he stood towards Isabel and |
towards the highly born gentleman
who admired here. But he kept his
doubts and fears to himself. 1.-THE
train won't wait for me- he said,
and held out his hand once more.
Don't quite forget me-" he said,
in low, faltering tones, and left her.
Miss Pink met Isabel in the hall.
Refreshed by unbroken repose, the
was in the happiest
frame of mind for the reception of
her niece's news.

Forest Fires Are
Costly to Nation

EVERYBODY is loser when the forests
burn, and from five thousand to six
thousand fires occur each year in the
national forests alone.
Lightning causes from 25 to 30
per cent of the fires The remaining
70 or rs per cent are classed as
'man-caused' fires, which are set
by campers, smokers, railroads, brush
burners, sawmills, and incendiaries,
according to Charles Lathrop Pack
in his School Book of Forestry"
The annual loss from forest fires in
the Federal forests varies from
few hundred thousands of dollars in
favorable years to several million In
particularly bad fire seasons. During
the last few years, due to effective
fire-fighting methods, the annual
losses have been steadily reduced.
The best way of fighting forest
fires is to prevent them The forest
officers do their best to reduce the
chances for fire outbreak in the
Government woodlands. They give
away much dead timber that either
has fallen or still is standing. Lum-
bermen who hold contracts to cut
timber in the national forests are
required to pile and burn all the
slashings
Dry grass is a serious fire menace. |
That is Why grazing is encouraged |
in the forests. Rangers patrol the |
automobile roads to see |
that careless campers and tourists
have not left burning campfires.
Railroads are required to equip |
their locomotives with spark arrest
ers. They also are obliged to keep
their rights-of-way free Of material
which burns rapidly Spark arrest
ers are required also on logging en-
sines.
But the individual has the great Il
responsibility, as the figures in Mr..
Packs book easily show. Every man II
md woman who loves the out of
loors should make it their personal
BUSINESS to use the greatest care
When in that out of doors they love IT

Rehearsals for "A Night in China

The Misses Marcy and Lily
LeGrande, representing the Lee
Grande Sisters Production Co., will
arrive in the city Monday and will
Immediately commence the rehearsals
for "A Night in Chinatown, the
home-talent musical comedy which
will be given at the Lincoln high
school May Sth and 9th under the
auspices of the Woman's club.
The LeGrande Sisters will be
remembered by their work in Iron
wood recently, in directing 1.-The
Doings of the Bowsers," which was
given so successfully by the Knights
of Columbus lodge of that city.
Having been on the stage since
they were children, the LeGrande
Sisters are especially fitted for their
present work of directing home
talent productions, and there is no
doubt but what their work in Hurley
will be up to their usual standard.

Skilled Mechanic. Needed

Approaches are needed in all
lines of skilled labor, according to
an officer of the New York Build
ing Congress. There is an in
creasing shortage of competent
workers in the building industry and
many others.
Perhaps one reason why many
trades lack apprentices, is that many
boys have been going into auto
mobiles and electrical work. These
two lines have SHOWN tremendous
expansion, attracting many who
formerly went into the building
trades
The fact that the men in these
trades have to wear overalls and get
their hands dirty may repel. They
may think there is more chance tC
rise in business Offices and stores
One would think that the average
young fellow who enters a skilled
mechanical trade, and studies it in
diligently would get recognition
perhaps more quickly than he woul,
on a white collar Job. The worlt
will pay good prize to-day to any
one who can reduce reduction
costs.

The four small cars, which com
prised part of the new rolling stock,
received by the local street railway
company last week, were put in
service Tuesday of this week be-
tween Hurley and Jessieville. The
cars are being operated under the
old schedule until they have become
worked i'm, and by that time the
company officials viii be able to
determine what changes can be made
in the schedules to provide better
service.
The pay-as-you-enter feature,
which was inaugurated along with
the new cars, is something new for
Gogebic range residents and it will
probably take little time for them
to get accustomed to it. To "have
the right change ready" is the secret
for successful operation of this
system.

Some people think that the wide.
sprea use of the radio in country
towns will hurt church services.
They believe that people will "hsten
in" to the services in big city
churches, and not take the bother to
resort to their own home town
services.
Yet it should work just the other
way in many instances. Listening
by radio to an inspiring service from
some big church, ought to stir people
up with desire to have the benefits
of the same movement in their home
towns, and it should incite them to
become regular attendants of the
home town church Perhaps also
peonle could be attracted by INSTALL
ing a radio equipment in country
churches, and occasionally offering
the congregation the chance to
listen to sermons and music from the
big centers.

Is Siashed.

Appropriation for National Guard
Is Slashed.
Madison-The annual appropria-
ton for the Wisconsin National
Guard was slashed in the senate on
Tuesday from 100000 to S2OO, 900.
The committees recommended an
appropriation of 1925, 900 but
Senator II. A. Huber offered an
amendment for 100000 and it was
adopted u to IS.
The senate defeated the Hirsch
amendment cutting the appropria-
ton to 100000 annually.
Senator A. f. Carey, of Edger-
ton, made a strenuous fight against
the Huber amendment.
IF you are going to cut the APP
preparation to less than 1855, 600
you might as well appropriate 81
and be done with it," declared
Senator Carey.
