CScotland Yards most famous detective, Fred

down criminals. He plans to devote his time to his
home and his garden."-Newsi tem).
Scene: A room in the Wensley cottage.
Wensley Staring at the telephone: Why doesn't
the damned thing ring?
Housekeeper: It seldom rings, sir.
WensIey: Hasn't it rung at all this morning?
Housekeeper: No, sir.
Wensley: Haven't I had any messages or anything?
Housekeeper: No, sir.
Wensley Gmpatiently): Well, do something to di-

Housekeeper puzzled): Whatll I do, sirP
Wensley: Oh, ask me to solve something. And
none of your simple problems; give me a hard one.
Housekeeper (stupidly): Solve something?
Wensley Cmpatiently): Yes. Haven't there been
any murders in your family?
HouSekeeper (startled): Murders! Oh, no, sir, I
hope not, sir.
Wensley: Don't you know Of anybody nearly muir
dered, somebody who clutched a strand of the as

You don't forge, do you?
Housekeeper: Certainly not, sir.
Wensley: Do you steal or crack safes or anything?

Otto Wahrrnund

Otto. Wahrmund has passed on to his reward. he
opened his eyes in the historic town of FrederlcKs-
vurgh IA years ago. His ~forebears were among the
pioneers in a wilderness and the builders OF Freder-
icksburg and Gillespie county. He moved from Gil
lespie to Bexar county in early manhood.
He became one of the most powerful figures IN the
civic. the industrial and the political life OF his Sec
ton. He was the head of a great brewing concern
He was interested in manufacturing. He was proml-
nent in banking circles. He served many terms III
the state legislature. He was the friend ana the
hacker of Charles A. Culberson. He was the frleno
and hacker of Oscar B. Colquitt.
He was a colonel on the staffs Of four Texas gov
errors. He attended as a delegate state and national
conventions of the democratic party. He was a large
contributor to the campaign chests OF the democratlc
party in national and state and local campaigns. he
subscribed literally to charity funds, welfare WORK
funds Of all kinds, the funds of his church ana was
recognized as one of the most hospitaole entertainers
that the Alamo City had ever known.
A new civilization came in just as an old clVllza-
ton passed out. Otto ahrmund face disappeared
from the political picture. Brewing was a thing Oh
the past. His old comrades had been called to an
other land-that land invisible. Now Otto has joined
them in the shades of the trees "f there are trees and
shady places over there"

Spillar of Texas

E. B. Spillar of Texas representing the Texas and
Southwestern Cattle Raisers association, appeared be
fore the senate subcommittee and bluntly told the
members of the committee that the house proposal OF
10 per cent ad valorem duties on hides and giving
leather and shoes a 20 per cent duty sis undeniably
unfair" He backed up the demand OF the livestock
association that a duty of 6 cents per pound for green
hides and 10 cents for dry hides be substituted in the
senate bill.
He pointed out that the hide industry is strictly
competitive throughout the world and that the day
a duty was placed on the commodity cattle raiserS
would feel its effects to their benefit"
Speaking of hides. the Texan let it be known that
only four other products-raw silk, coffee, crude rub
Der and cane sugar-are imported into this country in
larger amounts.
Hides are on the free list; feathers are on the free
list; shoes are on the free list. Why not equal pro-
lection for hides and feathers and shoes? Why the
turkey for the makers and the feathers for the pro-
ducers or growers?

Jardine on Beet Sugar

William M. Jardine is for a 6 cent duty on sugar.
He is the voice and the principal lobbyist for the beet
sugar growers or producers. He is former secretary
of the department Of agriculture. He was on the
rack for his methods as a secretary and southern con-
gressmen and senators placed him on the rack. This
while a cabinet officer by appointment of a republic
can president. He appeared before the senate COM
mittee on tariff making. He declared he was inter-
ested in expansion Of the beet sugar industry, He
described it as q non-surplus and good rotation crop
now produced by 100000 farmers in II states. Texas
may become a beet sugar producing state. 1t is said
both soil and climate are ideal for the production of
the beet. There is a sugar combine, an amalgamation
of the forces of cane and beet, and Washington ad-
vices indicate that the combine is in the saddle.

Advice to Girls

DEAR ANNIE LAURIE:
I am a girl Is years Of age and
am considered good-looking Dy
everyone. But, Annie Laurie, this
is my problem: Just lately I have
met a nice young man whom I love
dearly. He seems to be my equal
in every way. I have recently heard
that he is married. / do not be-
lieve this but I cannot afford to
lose my reputation by keeping COM
pany with him.
Please advise me, as I love him
as I can never love anyone else.
PUZZLED.
Puzzled: If the man is married
do not see him again. 1t is wrong
for a married man to cultivate the
friendship and possibly win the love
of a girl, but a girl who goes out
with a man whom she knows is
married, is equally guilty. Have you
told this man that Dame Rumor
says he is married? Ask him If 1t
is true. And, Puzzled, do not think
that you can never love again.
There are few deaths from broken
hearts.

scanning the June sky, when he
heard the familiar roar.

He trembled with relief as he ran
in the house and called to Kent,
who was anxiously bending over the
weak and seemingly Iifeless Celeste.
"Vivian-Vivian just passed over.
If she makes the landing all right
she'll be here any minute"
He had wanted to set a blazing
pail Of gasoline as a landing torch
for her, but he knew the rain would
put it out. And when the moon
came out so brightly he believed
she could make a good landing if
she brought the ship down SLOW

Vivian was thankful when she
saw all the lights were burning in

familiar she had nc fear in making
the landing. When the wheels hit,
she would have to be careful of the

the ships nose a little they came
down safely.
When Vivian stumbled into the
cottage with the two doctors fol-
lowing closely behind, Kent caught
her in his arms.
ooh, my dear, why did you do
it? You might have been killed.
She was worn out from shock and

words warmed her heart. He had

She smiled at him family, her
head on his shoulder.

went out and saw what was to be
