LIMITED ., MflbouiM. aa. Tvrcvl* j (Continued.) Foiter looked up with surprise, hut admitted that his partner might be right. Austin was a real estate ���gent, who now and then speculated in lumber and mineral claims. Hc had some influence at thc Crossing where, however, he was more feared than liked, since he lent money and bought up mortgages. On three or four occasions he had been a business rival of Foster and Feather- Stone'., and the former thought he might not have forgiven theni for beating him. "It's possible," lie said thoughtfully. "But you don't imagine Daly told liim what he knows about you?" "I should think it most unlikely," Featherstone rejoined. "Daly means to keep all hc can get for himself, but if hc gave Austin a hint that he tould injure me, the fellow might be willing to help. He's pretty often Up against us; but we'll let that go. You're a friend of Carmen Austin's, and as you'll meet her at the. reunion, it might be better if you didn't lell her 1 have changed my plans. Of Course, 1 don't mean to hint that she knows anything about her father's schemes." Foster laughed, lie liked Carmen Austin and was mildly flattered by the favor she showed him, but thought lie knew lur well enough not to attach unn-li importance to this. Carmen was clever and ambitious, and would, no doubt, choose a husband who had wealth and influence. Though very young, she was lhe acknowledged leader of society at the Crossing, "you needn't he afraid of hurting my feelings,'' lie said. "To some extent I do enjoy .Miss Austin's patronage, but 1 know my drawbacks and don't cherish any foolish hopes. If I did, 1 believe she'd tactfully nip them in the bud." "On the whole. I'm pleased to to hear il," Featherstone replied. "Now, if you don't mind, there's something I want to read." It The Mill Owner Big arc lamps flared above lhe railroad track that crossed the yard of the Hulton factory, but except for a yellow glimmer from a few upper window:;, the building rose in a huge dark oblong against the sky. The sharp clanging of a locomotive hell jarred on the silence, fnr the mill hands had ,onc home arid tlle wheels that otter, hummed all night were still. It seemed to Foster, who glanced at his watch as he picked his way among thc lines, that thc shadow of the recent tragedy brooded over lhc place. "1 don'l know that I'm imaginative, but I wouldn't like the night watchman's job just now-," he remarked to Featherstone. "Hulton's illness can't have spoiled his nerve, or he'd havc asked us to meet him at Ills house, in view of what he. probably wants to talk about."" "I suspect that Hullon's nerve is better than yours or mine, and although I'm sorry for the old man, it was a surprise to me when hc broke down," Featherstone replied. "This is the first time I've hern in the mill llnce Fred was shot, and I'll own lhat I'd sooner have, come in daylight." They went round a row oi loaded cars to the time keeper's office, where a man told them lhat Hulton was waiting and they were to go right up, A dark passage, along which their footsteps echoed, led lo a flight of Hairs, and lhcy felt sure there was something oppressive in the gloom, hut a small light burned near the top of the building, and when they reached a landing Featherstone touched his partner. It was at this Spot Fred Hulton had been found lying on the floor, with a fouled pistol of a make, hc was known to practise, with near his hand.

They went on and entered a small, plainly-furnished room, well lighted by electrics lamps, when- Hulton sal at a writing tabic 'nnd signed them to sit down. llis -���boulders were bent, his clothes hung slackly on his powerful frame, and Featherstone thought his hair had grown whiter since he saw him last. He looked ill, Inn his fare was hard and resolute, and when ho let his eyes rest on the young men his mouth was firmly sei. Hulton's business acumen and tenacity wcrc known, and it was supposed that lhc latter quality had helped him much in llie earlier part of his career. The other man, who sal close by, was lhc treasurer, I'crcival. "To begin wilh, 1 wanl to thank you for thc way yon gave your evidence," Hulton said lo Featherstone, who had been one oi the last to see Fred Hulton alive. "I don't know thai thanks arc needed," Featherstone replied. "I. had promised lo tell thc truth." "Just so. The trnll), however, strikes different people differently, and you gave the matter the most favorable look you could. We'll let it go at that. I suppose you're still convinced my son was in his usual health and spirits? Mr. Percival is in my confidence, and we have got to talk without reserve." "Ves, sir; 1 never found him morbid and he was cheerful when T saw him late that night." "Iu fact, you were surprised when you heard what happened soon after you left?" Hulton suggested in a quiet voice. "I was shocked. But, if I catch your meaning, 1 was puzzled afterwards and had better say I see no light yet." "Is this how you feel about il.'" Hulton asked Foster, "It is," said Foster, who noted thc man's stent calm, and Hulton turned to I'crcival. "That's my first point. These men knew my son." Then'he looked at Featherstone. "Fred went with you now and then on hunting ami prospecting trips and thai probably led to a certain intimacy, .'ou say he was never morbid; did you ever lind him anxious or disturbed;" Featherstone pondered. Fred Hulton, who was younger Hum he, had spent a year or two in F.uropc before he entered the factory. He had moreover, told Featherstone about some trouble he had got into there, but the latter could not tell how much his father knew. "You can talk straight," Hulton resumed. "I guess 1 won't bc shocked." "Very well. I did find him disturbed once or twice. Perhaps you knew he had some difficulties in Paris." ';i knew about the girl," Hulton answered grimly. "I found that out not long since; she was a clever adventuress. But 1 don't know where Fred got thc money he sent her. Did you lend it to him?" "I lent him some," Featherstone admitted, hesitatingly. "He told inc afterwards she had promised to make no further claim, and I understand she kept her word." Hulton turned to the treasurer. "You will see Mr. Featherstone about this tomorrow. I've cleared up another point; Fred was not-being urged to send mrirc money." Then he asked Foster; "Do you know if he had any dangerous friends?" (To Be Continued.)

The Allies and Wheat The Exceptional Advantages of Western Canada in Aiding the Situation United States and Canada should redouble their efforts in the production of wheat. Of the world's supply it has been estimated that lhc United States supplies 19 per cent, Canada 6 per cent., Italy 5 per cent., France 8 per cent., India 10 per cent, and Russia 18 per cent. With Russia in a muddle her 18 per cent, is going to dwindle. Australia and Argentina might alto bc asked to speed up but to the great distances for transportation it is more advisable lo look to North America. Hitherto the question of rates was thc all important factor, but war has added another phase. The nearest grain supply to Europe is North America. The distance between Quebec and Liverpool is 2,000 miles, while between Buenos Ayres and Plymouth it is S.,100 miles. A vessel on thc North American route could make two and one-half trips at least in the same time that would be required for it to make one trip if on the South American route. When it is a case of necessity it is not a question of rates so much as a question of time. In contracts for the supply of foods time will bc of the essence. Kngland must get her food supply as near to home as possible and look to North America. India with its 10 per cent, would prove an important factor but her trade route through the. Suez canal and Mediterranean sea is still infected with submarines. To journey around Africa would consume too much time. Wheat is a commodity that lends itself to cheap transportation. Its nature is such that without injury it may bc loaded and unloaded by machinery, it does not require sacks or barrels to contain it, it is more economically handled in its looso condition, it gives little or no trouble on the water���fill the "hold" and there is no shifting of cargo during a storm. Of the two North. American field* Western Canada has the advantage It possesses large areas of wheat Iand9 yet untouched. The country has proved itself suited to the raising of wheat. With thc method ol handling adopted in this country, with the system of internal and terminal elevators, with thc possibility of the shortest route through the Hudson's Bay, Western Canada will have the advantages of the lowest rate and the shortest route to the Brilish markets.

School Children Find New War Work in Making Books of Clippings The school children of Canada and the United Slates have assembled all the literary lights from George Adc and 11. C. Witwer with their "Fables in Slang" and baseball stories . to Henry James in the utile collections of stories which they have pasted into paper booklets for the use of T.B. soldiers in the sanatoria of the military hospitals commission. The question of keeping the men affected wilh tuberculosis supplied with sufficient reading matter is a problem. Every so often the books in service must be burned for sanitary reasons, and to destroy valuable books in this way seems a great pity. The effort of the children to supplement these libraries which must be replenished ever so often with reading such as soldiers like, is one of the most appreciated supplementary services wliicli anyone has yet thought of rendering the boys. Teachers have supervised thc selection of stories, and the collections are varied. There arc. love stories, sporting talcs, adventure, detective mysteries, humorous essays and poems, everything bright and cheerful that can be found in the present day monthly publications. Pasted on heavy white paper and stitched down the back tlicy arc very fine little books. In each one is a little letter from the child who made it hoping in his best copybook form that the soldier will enjoy it as much as he did making it. They come in lots to thc sanatoria from points even as far distant as Spokane and North Carolina, and some of the children engaged in making the collections arc as young as eight years. YES! LIFT A CORN OFF WITHOUT PAIN I Cincinnati man tells how to dry up a corn or callus so it lifts off with fingers. You corn-pestered men and women need suffer no longer. Wear thc shoes that nearly killed you before, says this Cincinnati authority, because a few drops of freezone applied directly on a tender, aching corn or callus, stops soreness at once and soon the corn or hardened callus loosens so it can bc lifted off, root and all, without pain. A small bottle of freezone costs very little at any drug store, but will positively take off every hard or sod corn or callus. This should bc tried, as it is inexpensive and is said not to irritate the surrounding skin. If your druggist hasn't any freezone tell him to gel a small bottle for you from his wholesale drug house, it is fine stuff and acts like a charm every time. Hampering Restrictions Bread Cards Necessary for Wedding Guests in Sweden In such sorely pressed neutral countries as Sweden thc war has resulted in rich and poor alike b ing subjected to many restrictions heretofore unknown, says thc January Popular Mechanics Magazine.

The latter wcrc members of two wealthy families in Stockholm, and the handsomely engraved missive included an invitation to a banquet at one of thc finest hotels in thc Swedish capital.

Black as Dirt About the Eyes Liver Was All Upset and There Was Pain Under the Shoulder- blade���Two Interesting Letters So many people suffer from derangements of the liver that ive feel sure these two reports, just recently received, will prove interesting reading and valuable information to many readers of this paper. Mrs. F. L. Harris, Kealley, P.O., Sask., writes: "I was suffering from liver trouble���had a heavy pain under onc shoulder blade all the time, and was nearly as black as dirt around thc eyes, so I concluded to try some of Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills. I did so, and before I had taken onc 25c box the pain had left mc and I commenced to gain in flesh, and by lhe lime I had taken two boxes I was completely cured and felt like a new person. My trouble was caused by heavy work out-of-doors, and, of course, heavy eating and constipation. I would advise anyone suffering from kidney or liver trouble lo give Dr. Chase's Pills a trial." Mrs. Charles Terry, Tweed, Out., writes: "Before I was married I was troubled with enlargement of the liver. My liver became so enlarged that you could detect thc swellings on either side, and it was only with difficulty that I could get my clothes on. A friend advised mc to get Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills and take them. I commenced this treatment, and used nine boxes, which cured me at that time. Then, about two or three years afterward I was troubled again with the swelling, but only oir| my right side. I secured some more Kidney-Liver Pills, and took them, which finally cured me. I havc not been troubled in this way since. I can cheerfully recommend Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills to anyone having kidney or liver trouble. "Wc have also found Dr. Chase's Linseed and Turpentine excellent for coughs and colds. In fact, any of Dr. Chase's medicines which we have used havc been good."

Dixon, health commissioner of that state, who advises them to eat less of this food aud of meat, He admits, however, that since onc man's meat is another man's poison, thc requirements of a food administrator should bc clastic enough lo leave room for every man to avoid thc foods which experience has taught him are harmful and still lo get adequate nourishment. "Most of our food stuffs are made up of different constituents." hc says. "A potato is largely composed of starch whereas beefsteak is largely- composed of nitrogen or protein. Starch represents so many heat-producing units, and beefsteak likewise produces its own quota. This is so when you consider the matter from a laboratory point, but if you made a test of the same values by feeding these foods to human beings, you would find the values varied greatly because of the variations of the. human or organic machinery which handled them. "The people of the slate of Pennsylvania cot too much potato. The large proportion of, this vegetable produces a catarrhal condition of the digestive tract, which interferes with digestion and leaves the patient over a long scries of years producing starvation. Meat, as a rule, is also overeaten by Pcnnsylvanlas. Just now, however, during thc tension of war wc need more meat than usual." Minard's Liniment Cures Diphtheria. Finest Flower of Anarchy Preparing Way for a Sane and Orderly System of Government For warning Russians that tltey would be German slaves if they fell into the Bolshevik! trap and inadc a separate peace with Germany, General Duklionin, thc commander-in- chief of thc Russian forces, was brutally assassinated by the crazed followers of Lenine afid Trotsky. In the murder of Duklionin Bolshevik- ism reached its finest flower of anarchy and violence. It was a notification to all patriotic Russians of what their fate would bc if lhcy fell into Bolshevik! hands after resisting the plans of the arch-traitors, Lcninc and Trotsky. It is absurd to think that Russians will long submit to domination by such lawless aud tyrannical forces, and there is good reason to believe, that after a few more excesses of this sort a reaction will set in against the Bolslic- viki that will sweep them out of power and prepare the way for the establishment of a sane and orderly system of government.���Springfield Union.

Farm Book-Keeping Only one per cent, of the farmers of Dundas county, Ontario, wnere the commission of conservation is conducting illustration farm work, were found to follow a satisfactory method of farm accounting. A proper system has been installed on each of the illustration farms selected by the commission, which will show where profits arc made and where losses are incurred, and will bc valuable and educative to the rest of the community.���Conservation. Not Guilty An Tv.CO. on duty at a German internment camp was looking through the bathrooms and grouching at their untidy condition. Suddenly turning a corner, he chanced upon a diminutive Fritz, who was peering through thc doorway. "Hi, you!" shouted the soldier. "Have you been taking a bath?" "Ach���vy you say dat?" queried the little man nervously. "Is dcrc vun missing?" German Efficiency Not Certain That It, Is the Result of the Form of Government Germany was well governed, ia certain particulars; it had grown rich and powerful; it surpassed most other states in a variety of ways not necessary to enumerate here. But why? To the mind steeped in l'rus- sianism there was but one answer possible. It was the government! To this two objections at once present themselves, The first is that there arc two kinds or degrees of efficiency; the onc like theirs, which, for want of a better name, we may call mechanical; the olhcr of a less tangible quality, easily recognized, but hard to define, the efficiency of the individual as opposed to the corporate efficiency of thc community. It is not possible here���perhaps it is not possible at all���to determine which of these is the more to be desired. But it is very apparent that what wc call thc spirit of liberty aligns itself rather with individual than with communal efficiency. And thc second answer is not unlike the first. It is that wc still await the proof that the desirable factors in the position which the Germans have attained, arc due wholly or even in considerable part to their form of government. That is an assumption which, like too many assumptions proceeding from the same source, remains a dogma rather than a provable proposition'.���Wilbur C. Abbott in the January Yale Review. A.

Nest spring she ought to be in a position to make the weight of her sword tell upon her adversaries, and her lighting squadrons will join wilh (lie British and the French iu asserting a joint maslery of the air. Those who arc templed to give way to tiller despondency when lhcy read bad news from Italy or Russia pay but a poor compliment to the superb courage of the British and French soldiers and do but convict themselves of a deplorable lack of imagination if they cannot conjure up a heartening vision of America in arms at their side. But, after all, the best Britisii asset in a war of endurance is the stubbornness of British character, and il is on that supreme quality that wc rely to pull us through.���London Daily Telegraph.

Wc should now plan for an army of 5,000,000. England has done nearly this with fewer men and less resources. England's interest in this war is no greater than ours. England, France, and the United States, with their forces thus augmented, can drive the Germans back and win victories which will destroy the power of the present Herman dynasty ovcr its people. What in must plan for is to beat Germany on the western (rout. The release by Russia of German divisions will give to the Germans for lhe time being, greater offensive power, but some of this has already been consumed. Thc Germans arc suffering great losses on both fronts and in spite oi English losses the mere process of attrition which Grant used in defeating Lee is working against Germany. With the addition' of au army of 5,000,000 Americans, with lhc control of the seas, with the drawing of thc fangs of the the submarine monster wc can end German domination. But wc should nol minimize thc job. We should not lengthen it by an effort narrow- anil contracted which may fail, and failing, call for a greater effort. Wc should make the greater effort now.��� William II. Taft in the Philadelphia Public Ledger. "Are you fond of dogs?" "Very.

The muscles of the back are under a heavy strain and have but litlle rest. When Ihe blood is thin they lack nourishment, and thc result is a sensation of pain in those muscles. Some people think pain iu the back means kidney trouble, but the best medical authorities agree that backache seldom or never has anything to do with the kidneys. Organic kidney diseases may have progressed to a critical point withoul developing a pain in thc back. This being the case pain in the back should always lead the sufferer to look to thc condition of his blood. It will be found in most cases that thc use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to build up thc blood will stop the sensation of pain in the ill-nourished muscles of thc back. How much better it is to try Dr. Williams' Pink I'ills for the blood than to give way to unreasonable alarm about your kidneys. If you suspect your Kidneys any doctor can make tests in ten minutes that will set your fears at rc6t, or tell you thc worst. But in any cvcnl to bc perfectly healthy you must keep the blood in good condition, and for this purpose no other medicine can equal Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

Japanese Fabric Haa Many Uses Siunc luni' ago notices il Necessity for Speeding Up on the Farms of the Dominion was Never so Urgent as at the Present Time, and Authorities Should Take Action to Secure thc Required Help Day hy Jay, with growing insistence, the call of thc firm for labor is heard. If Europe is not to suffer from famine on a scale heretofore unknown among civilized men there must be a great speeding up of agricultural production uu this continent. The tolal ol thc world's food stocks Is not far short ol the normal consumption, .'inil if shipping were available to carry the surplus of cereals and ments to he found in Australia, India, and South America to thc European consumer there would he little danger of serious shortage. Hut ���hipping is not available in sufficient tonnage to make the long voyages required lo bring the food surplus of the Orient nnd of South America within reach of the Brilish, French and Italian consumers, The North American continent, because of its proximity to Europe, must continue to bc the chief source of food supply for the allied nations uniil the end of thc war and during lhc earlier stages of reconstruction. The necessity for speeding up on the farms of the Dominion was never so urgent as it is today. Yet it Is doubtful whether Canada during the coming crop year will produce as large a surplus ol' food for export as In the earlier years of thc war, when lhc need was not so great. Many careful observers, including the leaders of the farmers themselves, slate lhat there are not enough workers left on thc farms���apart altogether from the scarcity of labor due lo the operation of thc military service act ���to maintain production even at the level set in former years. Mr. Harry Frankland, who is not an alarmist, and who is in a position to undcr- Itand the town dweller's point of view as well as the farmer's, made a strong appeal in yesterday's is- lue of The Globe for the help without which the farms of Ontario cannot bc made to yield their accustomed increase during the coming sea- ion. He says: "It is up lo the citizens to organize ind send help to the farms during My and August and half of September this coming year, or farmers will be loath to sow grain or food. They will be afraid that their labor will be In vain, and they will turn good wheat and oat ground into pasture. I would respectfully rcci ..eiiU those who can and know Im to organize lo do so now, and show the farmer before it is too late thai lie will havc issistancc to harvr ��� his grain next leason. Prepare to closr stores, factories and warehouses, if necessary, jnd let us havc volunteers. The time ������ now opportune; wait not for tomorrow." Mr. Frankland's call is for volunteers. But why volunteers? If men lo grow food arc as necessary to the juccess of Ihe allied cause as men to bear arms, why should nut the principle of selective conscription bc as applicable to thc growing of food as to the raising A armies? Britain penalizes the fanner who turns good wheat and oat ground into grazing land. Britain insists on the breaking np of pasture suitable for cropping. But in doing so the men charged with the task of increasing the British supply of home-grown food sec lo it that farm 1-bor is provided where required. Men in thousands wcrc released temporarily from the army last spring lo get in the crop. A very complete organization exists Io direct women's labor lo the farms, although compulsion is not yet applied in the case of women workers. Ought not similar measures to hc laken in Canada? Among the hundred thousand unmarried men lo be called up for service from time to lime under the military service act, there must bc many thousands who are accustomed to farm work and who could bc used to advantage early In the season in preparing llur ground and sowing the crops. The militia department docs not propose to call up the whole hundred thousand at once for training. It may he well Into the summer before the last call conies (or overseas service. Why not utilize now for farm work some of the men who will not bc included in lhc drafts to bc sent abroad immediately? There arc other sources of farm labor that should be drawn upon without hesitation. ' Government offices all over the country are full of men and women who came from the farm and arc still able to do farm work. It would bc a mighty stimulus to war effort were the announcement to bc made that the members of the Dominion and provincial civil services had, by lengthening the hours of labor and voluntarily increasing the work done by each, released a thousand men and women to aid in food production. The call for volunteers from private offices, workshops and stores would come with much g'_atcr force from men who, as servants of the people, were urging oth ers to follow llieir example. "Come on" is always a belter cry than "Go on." The soil of Canada should bc used to the utmost possible extent for the production of grain, dairy products, and food animals from now until the end o( the war. It is the duty cf thc government to see that land capable of use is not held idle for lack of labor. And if lhat duty cannot be performed withoul recourse to the principle of compulsion there should be no hesitation in applying it. Here iu Canada, with peace and prosperity surrounding us, we do not yet understand lhat our own liberties and our own future are at stake in thc grim struggle thai is being waged ill Franco and Flanders. If the allies fail for lack of food, that failure will be ours as much as theirs, and its consequences will he felt by us and Ihose who conic after us for many a long year. Growing foodstuffs in Canada is not an ordinary business at present. It is a war industry, and must bc so regarded by thc govcrn- men and thc people generally, as well as by thc men and women engaged in it. If voluntary workers cannot be secured to carry on the industry the state must step in and exercise thc power of compulsion.���Toronto Globe. W. N. U. 1193 The Zeppelin is ��� Failure Germany Has Only Thirteen Airships Left of a Fleet of Fifty-three Germany's Zeppelin program, announced with boastful pride in 1914, stands a dreary failure today. Accurate figures show that of fifty- three Zeppelins put into commission since 1914, thirty-five have been destroyed, two havc been badly damaged and put permanently out of commission, two possibly destroyed, now missing, and one is badly damaged and temporarily out of commission. Of the thirteen remaining in service eight arc detailed to the North Sea, two to the Baltic and three as experimental school ships. Kaids over France, England and Belgium have cost thc Germans seventeen Zeppelins, eight having been account- for in England, live in France and four iu Belgium. Accidents by tire, wind and lightning have destroyed at least eight in Germany. Zeppelin numbers, according to accurate calculations, started with the L-l and ended with L-57. Numbers between 25 and 30 have not been employed, leaving 53 to bc accounted for. L-l and L-2 wcrc destroyed before the war. The first fell in the North Sea and thc second was accidentally burned at Fuhlshbuttel. In addition to her Zeppelins Germany has had in commission since the beginning of the war at least thirteen airships of the Schuttc-Lanz, Gross and Parsc- val types. Of these possibly seven remain in service, two, however, as non-combatant instruction ships. Meanwhile the Empire is Growing The British Empire Still Continues To Expand Thc Germans may well be discouraged if they aim to smash the Britisii empire. They arc no nearer thc hate-England heaven than Napoleon was, or Louis XIV., or Philip of Spain. Napoleon overran Europe as the Germans have not succeeded in doing, yet thc Britisii empire stood like a rock. Today, it is true, the Germans and their allies arc in parts of Kussia, Rumania, Italy, France and Flanders, but the Britisii havc recently driven the last German out of Africa and have now made their grip on the Suez canal and Egypt stronger than ever by taking thc heart of Palestine. Europe's great continental wars always overshadowed the contemporaneous events in other continents, particularly the decisive little battles on the outskirts of Christian civilization, whether in North America or Asia. Thus Wolfe conquered Canada and Clivc India. When Europe stopped fighting and bleeding, the British empire had usually grown in size.��� Springfield Republican. ��� "My friend, there is really no excuse for your not looking neat and clean."

This boat was said to weigh hut n few pounds and could bc folded up Into a very small compass. Upon Investigation some very Interesting information regarding the paper used in the construction of this boat was secured, The rrar admiral's invention consists not of si new paper, bu^ratlier if a chemical process whereby a very tough fibre paper is rendered waterproof, This paper has been manufactured by the Japanese for centuries from the fibre ol the mulberry trees, The paper is made up into any desired shape by cutting and cementing with an especially prepared adhesive; a lapped joint of onc-cightll to five thirty-seconds of an Inch lias as much strength as the surrounding material. With the above mentioned adhesive any number of thickness can bc cemented together and an almost unbelievable strength obtained. The paper is nearly lis pliable as doth and no amount of folding or crumpling seems lo diminish ils strength, A hole made in the body of the paper shows less tendency to enlarge than a similar hole in cloth, When desired the paper can bc treated with au antiseptic which renders a sack made of this material capable of holding water continuously for several months. Owing to lack of capital the. admiral turned over his invention to a company which is at present engaged principally in making and testing oul sample articles of this paper; There seems to be no limit to the different uses to which this paper can be put. Some lime ago a sample sandbag was submitted, upon request, to thc British government; if this proves satisfactory thc company agrees to furnish the sacks at the rale of one million a month until lhc end of the war. These bags posses all the strength of canvas sacks, but unlike theni they arc waterproof, hence can bc easily emptied, carried lo an advance position, refilled and placed in any desired spot. Life preservers, inner tubes for motor ear tires, bladders for footballs, air cushions, air mattresses, sacks for Portland cement, ponchos, "pup" tents and mothproof hags for clothing arc a few of the things that have been made and tested out and as far as can bc ascertained lisivc proved successful.���Scientific American. ALL GERMANY'S WELL LAID PLANS DOOMED TO COMPLETE FAILURE INCLUDED THE UNITED STATES IN THEIR LIST Investigation has Caused Considerable Information to be Brought To Liglit in Which it is Clearly Shown that the Germans Had Planned to Overrun the Great Republic Captain Gives Life In Fight with U-Boat Victoria Cross Awarded to the Family for Brave Battle With Submarine Never was the Victoria Cross more fittingly awarded, observes the London Morning Post, in telling the story of Thomas Crisp. On an August afternoon at about 2:45 thc trawl was shot from thc Nelson, while the fishing smack was on the port tack. The skipper was below packing fish. One man was on deck cleaning fish for lhe next morning's breakfast. The skipper came on deck, saw an object on the horizon, examined it closely and sent for his glasses. Directly he sang "out, "Clear for action. Submarine." He had scarcely spoken when a shot fell about 100 yards away on the port bow. Thc motor-nan got to his motor; the deck hand dropped his fish and went to the ammunition room. The other hand at the skipper's orders, "Let go your gear." Meanwhile the gun- layer held his fire until the skipper said: "It i.s no use waiting any longer; we will have to lct them have it." Away in the distance thc submarine sent shell after shell at thc smack and about thc fourth shot the shell went through the port bow- just below the waterline. Then the skipper shovcr her round. There was no confusion on board not even when the seventh shell struck thc skipper, passed through his side, through the deck and out through lhc side of the ship. The second hand at once took charge of lhe tiller and thc firing continued. All the lime water was pouring into thc ship, and she was sinking. One man, thc gun-layer, went to the skipper to sec if hc was mortally wounded. "It's all right, boy; do your best," said the skipper, and then, to thc second hand: "Send a message off." This was the message: "Nelson being attacked by submarine. Skipper killed. Send assitance at once." All this time the smack was sinking and only five rounds of ammunition were left. The second hand went to the skipper, lying there on thc deck, and heard him say: "Abandon ship. Throw the books overboard." Hc was asked then if they should lift him into the boat but his answer was: "Tom, I'm done; throw me overboard." He was too badly injured to be moved, and they left him there on his deck and took to the small boat. A quarter of an hour afterward the Nelson went down by the head.

Tin's prophesied Dr. Otto Hotscll professor at the War Academy in Berlin in art article in the Alldeutschc Blatter, on August 23, 1902, and lhc learned doctor has certainly prophesied better than he knew. How completely America has upset the whole German apple-cart can only hr appreciated when it ia realized that decades ago Germany planned first lo conquer Europe and then to attack and dominate au isolated and helpless America. Open avowals of this conspiracy have bee. collected by the United Stales iimcnt in a bro chure entitled- - ..jqucst and Kultur," compiled by Professors Notc- steiu and Stoll, of the University of Minnesota, and issued by thc committee of public Information at Washington, From the evidence there collected it can bc seen that the Germans have been by no means reticent about their intentions, and tlicy seem to have calculated upon thc good-natured Anglo-Saxon's refusal lo believe the. Teuton capable of such depths of long-sighted.villany. This side of the queslion is emphasized by the committee on public information when it quotes the letter of Dr. W. T. Homaday in the New York Tribune of August 11, 1915, containing thc statements made to him by Maj. M. A. Bailey, who recounts how he traveled with . Count von Goctzen, onc of Germany's military attaches, from Santiago, Cuba, immediately after the Spanish-American war. On llieir way to America Count von Goetzen confided lo Major Bailey, twenty years in advance, the history of thc beginning of this war and Major Bailey's account runs: "Apropos of a discussion ... on the. friction between Admiral Dewey and the German admiral at Manila, I von Goctzen said to mc: '1 will tell you something which you had better I make a note of. I am not afraid to tell you this because if you do speak of it, no one would believe you and everybody will laugh at yon. " 'And fifteen years from now my country will start her great war. She will be in Paris in about two months after thc commencement of hostilities. Her move on Paris will be but a step lo ber real object���the crushing of England. Everything will move like clockwork. Wc will bc prepared and others will not be prepared. I speak of this because of thc connection which it will have with your own country. " 'Some months after wc finish our .work in Europe, wc will take New York, and probably Washington, and hold them for some time. Wc will put your country in its place with reference to "Germany. Wc do not purpose to take any of your territory; but we do intend to take a billion or more dollars from New York and other places. The Monroe Doctrine will be taken charge of by us, as we will then have put you in your place, and wc will take charge of South America as far ns wc want to.'" This project of an invasion of America subsequent to a German victory in Europe was developed at great length in 1901 by Baron von Edelsheim in his book: "Operations Upon thc Sea," and it should be recollected that when he wrote it he was in the service of the German general staff. He said, probably with sonic foreknowledge of German habits in conquered countries: "The fact that onc or two of her provinces arc occupied by invaders would nol alone move thc Americans to sue for peace To accomplish this end, the invaders would have to inflict real material damage by injuring the whole country through the successful seizure of many of the Atlantic ports, in which thc threads of the entire wealth of the nation meet. It should bc so managed that a line of land operations would be in close juncture with the fleet, through which wc would bc in a position to seize in a short lime many of these important and rich cities, to interrupt their means of supply, disorganize all governmental affairs, assume the control of all useful buildings, confiscate all war and transport supplies, and lastly, to impose heavy indemnities . . . as a matter of fact, Germany is the only great power which is in a position to conquer the United States." There has becn a slight dislocation in this interesting program, but a still more marked miscalculation was made regarding the German immigrant and his functions, which were, of course, to prepare the way for the ultimate absorption of America into the bosom of the Fatherland and until that happy day arrived he was to asisst by every means in his power that program of active Germanlza- tion of American institutions which we know to have been directed from Berlin. For example, Wilhclm Hub- bc-Sclileidcn, writing in the Alldcut- iche Blatter in 1903, said: "It is lhe duty of cwry one v.ho loves languages to sec that iho fu nic language spoken in America shall bc German. It is of the highest importan , keep up tlie German language ul America, to eslab- lish German universities, improve the schools, introduce German newspapers, and lo scc that at American Universities German professors are more capable than their English- Speaking colleagues, ri"d make their influence felt III ...lakably on thought, science, an and literature. If Germans hear this in mind and help accordingly, thc goal will eventually he reached. At lhe pr.-sent moment the center of Germs n intellectual activity is in Germany: in the remote future it will be In America." The German emigrant was traincil lo feel that in leaving his native shores he was followed hy the protecting hand of the Fatherland, and wc find the kaiser himself paying iu a speech as early as June 16, 1S96: "The German empire has become a world empire. Everywhere in distant quarters of the earth thousands of our countrymen arc living. German guardians of the sea, German .science, German industry, are going acros.-t the sea. It is my wish that, standing in closest union, you help uie to dn my duty not only to my countrymen in a narrower sense, but also to the many thousands of countrymen i'i foreign lands. This means that I may be able to protect them if I must." Nearly twenty yearn after tlm kaiser made this utterance we slill find in thc mind of the All Highest the conviction that he can do what he pleases with America. Just before we threw in our lot with tho rest of thc world in this fij-'it for democracy, our ambassador in Berlin, Mr. James W. Gerard, had an inlervievv with the emperor ot significant import. In bis book, "My Four Years iu Germany," he thus describes the. incident: "The emperor was standing; so naturally I stood also; and, according: to bis habit, which is quite Roosevcl- lian, he stood very close to ine, anl talked very earnestly , . . Hc showed. however, great bitterness against tha United States and repeatedly sail America had better loots, out after this war; and 'I shall stand no nonsense from America after the war.' "I was so fearful in reporting the dangerous part of lhis interview, on account of the many spies not only in my own embassy, but also in the state department, that I sent but ., very lew words in a roundabout way by courier direct to the president.* We were not only to bc conquered but also to bc turned out of our home. Thc fate ill store for thosi who did not respond gracefully to Germanizatipn is told In Klaus Wagner's "Kricg," published in 1906: "By the right of war thc right ol strange races to migrate into Germanic settlements will bc takrn away. By right of war thc non-Germanic population in America and Greal Australia must be settled in \i'rica." ���Literary Digest. Some Reciprocity California Sending Prune Trees to France to Rehabilitate Orchards Devastated by Huns Five and one half millions pound, of seed beans and 1,500,00*) two-year- old French prune irecs arc being gathered in California for shipment to Northern ranee to rehabilitate the fields and orchards devastated by the Germans in their retreat. Thc beans are pink and black cyi varieties, and the quantity is sufficient to plant 69,000 acres. The prune trees will convert 15,000 acres into hearing orchards within two years. There is a bit of sentiment in California's sending young orchards to France, as it was this war torn republic, that gave the state its first prune trees. This was in 1S56 and since that time the prune orchards cover nearly 100,00*) acres and bring to thc growers more than $10,000,000 a year. If an average crop is raised from the California seed it will mean an addition to the food supply of France of morc than two and ore half pounds of beans next summer to each of the 40,000,000 residents. Shipments will begin immediately. "I'm on speaking terms with a dozen editors," said the budding author. "Docs that get you anytbing?"

For instance, not only your driving-horse and buggy, but the single harness, blankets, -whips, currycombs, brushes, horse-shoes,, pitchforks, feed-bins, etc. In their place you have a speedy, dependable, dignified, roomy Ford Car���complete in itself. It is vastly superior to the narrow, cramped buggy that travels so slowly. And when a Ford is standing idle it does not eat three meals a day, and it requires no "looking after." A Ford will save you time, trouble, and money. It is the utility car for the busy farmer and his family.

Engineer Harry Austin was seti- ously injuted, and fireman Oscar Droube sustained a fractured arm in a wreck oil the E. '& N, ou Friday afternoon, when the train, in I chat ge of Conductor Pat Fletcher I which left Courtenay at 11,45 a. ni. tor Victoria, plunged into sin opening in the track caused by a cave in of the old Soutbfield slope, which passes under the K. & N, ut ja point about midway between Stark's crossing and .South Wellington. S > I The train, consisting of the loeo- I motive, mail and baggage cars and thrje coaches, was a little behind time leaving Nunninio, nnd nfler , leaving Stark's Crossing put '>n a little speed iu order to make up a I little lost time, reeling oil uliout 30 1 miles an hour, Owing to the fact that the r..ils and ties were still iu I position nol having gone down J with tlie roadbed, the two men in ! the locomotive did not see any d.in ! ger abend until the train wus vvith- I in a few yards of llie cave, Throwing on all brakes and shutting off steam, Austin and Droube jumped from the engine which was going over the cave at this time, llie locomotive going over, but in doing so the rear wheels of the tender broke tlirougli allowing the mail coach to drop into tht cave, the coupling breaking which allowed to continue ou partly off anil partly on tlle track until it came to a stop about fifty feet beyond the cave. llefore they could get away after jumping from the engine, Austin and Droube were pinned to the ground by the tn iii car, which inflicted their injuries. After con- siderable effort thev were extricated from under the wrecked car and made as comfortable as possible until the arrival of Dr. McPhee Wilks and Ingham from Nanaimo, who, after giving temporary treatment to the injured 111.11, had them removed to the local hospital where it was found that Ausin'sriijht foot was broken aud a portion of the heel torn completely away. His pelvis is also badly injured if uot fractured and it is feared that he lias also sustained internal injuries, Droube's injuries were less serious consisting of a fractured arm and a number of biuises, besides being badly shaken up. Mr, D. H. Shiuneg, clerk iu the mail car, had a very nawow escape. When the weight of the tender snapped the two heavy steel rails tbe ends crashed through the bli.id end of the mail car. passing through its eitire length and into the baggage car, which telescoped the mail car for a distance of several feet, Shinneg was assortiug mail at the time, and when the car came to a stop he found himself amongst a mass of wreckage, with a steel rail on either side of him, and how he escaped being impaled is nothing short of a miracle. As It was, apait from a few slight cuts aud a shaking up he escaped injury None of the passengers, amongst whom were Mr. Duncan Thompson and Mrs. Merryfield of Cum- beiland, were injured, although they were all more or less thrown about when the coaches were brought to a sudden slop. Some of the passengers returned to Nanaimo, while the majority walked from the scene of the accident to South Wellington, at which point they awaited the arrival of the north bound train from Victoria, which, after transferring its passengers, mail and baggage, turned back towards the capital, When You want to hear the latest VaudevilleHits Yoa'll find it at its Best on Columbia Double Disc Records Even if the instrument vou own i.s not a Columbia, all Columbia Records vlll play perfectly on it ���don't let anyone tell you that vou must go without the exclusive Columbia records of the world's greatest artists who can be heard only on- Columbia Records.
