Your daughter was just showing

Your daughter was just showing me round" he replied, forcing a smile. It occurred to him a second later that it was rather an unusual hour of the night to call anywhere, and that, in any case, he had no right to be on terms of acquaintance with the daughter of a wealthy Chinaman.
 "Ah." commented the other. "She has not shown you everything, be- cause she does not know everything that there is to show We are some what different in our treatment of women, MT. Brabazon. We keep them in many respects, uniformed. We do not allow them the freedom that Western races do, we do not permit them to meet casual strangers During my enforced absence. dis cipline has relaxed. came back as quickly as possible to remedy this. find it is beyond my powers. I see that it is too late'
 Brabazon placed his hands on his hips and jerked out his chin.
 I'm afraid I don't quite follow you, MT. Chai- Hung" he said.
 The girl had fallen to her knees, Ter head buried in her arms.
 After leave you here-together,"

WHEAT PROBLEM IS
 BEING EXAGGERATED
This Is Statement Made by Ez- Secretary of Agriculture
By The Associa,sa Press.

Des Moines, Ia, July 28.-General effect of the drop in wheat prices to below a dollar bushel has been ex- aggerated in the minds of many peo- pie. both as regards its effect on farm CTS generally and upon business other than farming. declares F. T. Meredith, secretary of agriculture during Presi- dent Wilson's administration in a statement to The Associated Piess.
 Those tEot grow wheat exclusive- ly or nearly so and consequently are dependent ron the erturn from their wheat crop almost entirely for tkeir income" he said. have had their Cutcomes cut by the recent decline in wheat prices and the seriousness of the situation so far as they are is a matter of interest and importance to every other interest of the nation, labor and business being concerned as we'll as the farmer. Certainly steps should immediately be taken 10 pre- cent such a situation being again forced upon a group of people who are producing one of our staple pro- ducts.
 The entire income American faryr- CTS receive from wheat however rep resents but ten per cent of the total income of the farmers as a group. Then that comodity which repre- sents ten per cent of the total income Is only ten per cent lower in price than it was a year ago. It apepars then, that so far as the price of wheat alone is concerned the present price of corn is as much higher than the price for that grain years ago as wheat is lower and inasmuch as there are more than three times as many bushels of corn produced as there are of wheat. this very increase in the price of corn greatly exceeds the shrink in what

, scream broke upon the night.
 The Chinaman sprang erect and dived behind the screen, In his left hand he held an automatic pistol, but the weapon with which he silenced the sentry at the door was the knife in the glossy black sheath that he had first seen in the joss house in the fair hand of suey-Koo. ,.
 To Brabazon-confiden that the Commissioner had driven the re- doubtable Chai-Hung into the jungle --there was something delightfully."- intimate in this invitation to drink tea-in true Chinese fashion, sitting on severe, high backed chairs before a black wood table. Suey-Koo drew him gently to an inner room Sud- denly a scream of terror from the girl at his side, caused him to glance sharply round. He stared in amaze ment into the evil eyes of the great Chai-Hung. His hands were folded over an enormous paunch, the cor ners of his mouth turned ominously down, and he nodded his head like one of those Chinese figures Braba- zon had seen in tea-shops.
 We meet again, Mir. Brabazon," he said smoothly, and, can assure you. it is for the last time!"
 Instinctively, but without hope, Brabazon's hand shot to his pocket. He had not thought to come armed to meet Suey-Koo.

TO CLEAR
 A P|MPLY SKIN
Pimples Are Impurities Seeking An Outlet Through Skin
 ppv,nc

Pimples, sores and boils usually re- suit from toxins, poisons and impuri- ties which are generated in the bow els and then absorbed into the blood through the very ducts which should absorb only nourishment to sustain the body.
 It Is the function of the kidneys to filter impurities from the blood and cast them out in the form of urine, but in many instances the bowels ere ate more toxins and impurities than the kidneys can eliminate; then the blood uses the skin pores as the next best means of getting rid of these impurities, which often break out all over the skin in the form of pimples.
 The surest way to clear the skin of these eruptions, says noted author ity is to get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts and take a tablespoonful in glass of water each morning before breakfast for one week. This will help prevent the formation of toxins in the bow els. It also stimulates the kidneys, thus coaxing them to filter the blood of impurities and clearing the skin of pimples.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia. Here you have a pleasant. efferves- cent drink which usually helps make pimples disappear.
