That night she and Irene

her a venomous look and didn't

ominous thing happened. 1t was

a taut exclamation went vibrating

Then Phyllis got up quickly and
nominated Chickie for the editor

long business training; her ability
to type. She said: 1--WE want

"I suppose you can't prevent

stayed because the food sounded
good to him-not because of met!
She became suddenly indignant at
the shabby interview and the ris-

Irene? / don't want DR.. Har-

Chickie took q book from her

Irene came up and snatched 1t
from her hands: you think
you'll pass it off like this,
Bryce? See how far you get!"
She walked out of the room.
From then on she refused to
speak to Chickie. Norma Talbot
also ignored her.
One night, when Chickie came
off duty at IL, Myrtle was
sprawIed on the bed, a magazine
before her, a box Of fudge Jennie
had sent, open on a chair. She
propped a pillow under her head,
and, with a great air of relish,
tossed the magazine aside: $50

Myrtle had a high, wheezy
laugh. She kept it up so long
now Chickie wondered If she
was choking. Say, now-that's
mean. Those engagements that
maybe are and maybe amt are
the most dangerous kind to bust
up. Too bad for Woody! She'll
never get another chance"
In two or three days every one
knew that Irene Underwood and
Kenneth Harmon no longer

times Chickie passed group Of

Redbird Got Its Name
From Church Dignitdry

At first thought II ID difficult TO see
the relationship between the common
redbird. or cardinal, and the hinges OF
the front door. The explanation is
simple enough, however, when the
words are traced to their source. The
redbird was originally called card
inal because his plumare bore the
coloring of the hat and cassock OF q
cardinal of the Roman Catholic
church. The use OF the word "cardi-
nal" as denoting a Hgpitsry Of the
church came about through the poetic
fancy Of an early pope, who spoke OF
the cardinals As THE hinges by which
all things are moved" In connection
with church government In the Latin
language ''cardo, cardinis," is the
equivalent Of the English hinge.
For this reason the dignitary was
called a cardinal, as signifying his
function as one Of the hinges" Of the
church. From this early usage card
inaI" came to be applied TO anything
Of prime importance. including the
cardinal numbers, fhs cardinal points
OF the compass and the cardinal VIZ
tues. The use of the word as apply
ing to color came about from the
fact that the color was the striking
feaiure Of the drsss OF cardinal.
This explains the Use Of the word III

The Barney stone is not unique in
having received an immense number
of chaste salutes. ST. Peters statue,
in the nave of ST. Peters church, In

in the world, namely, the celebrated

Said to have been white originally,
the Black stone is stated by those to
whom IT is an object of veneration to
have been turned to its present color

the tremendous number Of kisses

The Radiometer

An instrument by which radiant
heat and light may be directly con
verted into mechanical energy is an
invention of Sir William Crookes. II
consists Of an exhausted globe of glass
In which is needle support carrying
a rotating four-disk vane, the faces
being blackened on one side. Placed
In a field of light, the blsckened side
Of each disk absorbs more of the radi-
ant energy than the other side, and
the molecules Of residual air that
strike 1t are thus given greater energy,
The resulting pressure does not be-
come quickly equalized for the two
sides, as would be the case in air of
the ordinary density, hence the vane
rotates. An adaptation Of the Crookes
radiometer has been devised by Mich
OILS of sufficient sensitiveness to detect
the radiant heat Of some Of the Axed
stars.

No Regular Nail Sizes

Up until about the Fifteenth century
nails In England we're sold by the hun
dred. Nails which sold for 10 cents a
hundred were called 10-penny nails,
those which sold for 6 cents, 6-penny
nails, etc. When the prices changed
the names persisted and, finally, came
to be used to designate size, says the
Detroit News.
The I'd" is used as a sign OK penny
and is derived from the Latin "dena-
RUS" According to Webster's Inter
national dictionary, the explanation
that penny" in this connection is q
corruption of pound" is wrong. There
are no regular standard sizes for nails
by pennies" For instance, the length
of 10-penny nails varies. depending
upon the kind Of nails and the firm
manufacturing them.

NOT BUYING AT HOME

absorbed a large per cent of their
OUTPUT and in order to supply the
needs of the local merchants had
been obliged to take some from the
large order. But they informed the
merchant that if he would weigh the
spades he would find that they were
considerably lighter than those he
had been getting and also that the |
handles were not selected stock but
seconds. A test showed that their |
statement was true.

tive of a mail order house appeared |
at the office and offered to take the
entire output of the factory but they
would only pay s1.49 each. The |
management refused the offer at first
but the efficiency expert from the
mail order house offered to show
them they could turn out the chair
for the low price and still make
more money. How did he do it?
Well. he showed them they were put

FARMERS TAKE NOTICE

Five years ago, one Montana range
that served about 20 stockmen had
almost that many kinds of beef
stock; their calves were piebald
mongrel brutes that always brought
the bottom prices-where there were
any calves to sell. Then the ranch
ers got together, bought several car
loads of pedigreed Hereford bulls,
and sold off or shot the other breed
ing stock. The result has been a
100 percent increase in the calf crop ;
a 100 percent increase in the finish
ed steer price; and the ranchers need
no laws to make them money. The
plan of standardizing fruit, grain,
livestock or poultry production for
any locality, is the road to financial
salvation.

ISSUES PRESENTED TO PEOPLE

A student of public affairs and a
lawyer of national reputation who
has the background of long expert
ence on which to base his opinion
and judgment, says:
MY observation leads me to be-
lieve that on the whole it was a
good thing for the country that Sen
ator La Toilette was a candidate for
president on the platform which he
dictated. His proposal for the gov
eminent to buy or condemn the rail
roads and operate them and his pro-
posal to do away with the power of
the United States Supreme court to
declare an act of congress unconsti-
tutional have really been considered
by the people as they never would
have been without the issues being
Joined and it seems to me that the
issues have been settled and settled
right. If such be the fact, is not the
country rather indebted to Senator
La Toilette than endangered by his
radical proposals.
There is truth in this statement.
People never prize their possessions
until some movement is started to
deprive them of the same.
Let the people be informed upon
basic principles of business and gov
eminent and they will apply the rule
to local questions and state and ma
tional issues when they arise.
