THE APPLE
CARTS ARE
SAFE
Woman Suffrage will not disturb
party balanc ein Pennsylvania. Nobody's
apple cart is in danger of being upset.
There are millions of women voters in the
country, but no feminist party—and there
never will be.
It is admitted, however, that parties
in order to hold their woman following
MUST RUN CLEAN CANDIDATES AND
STAND FOR DECENCY. IF WOMAN
SUFFRAGE DID NOTHING MORE THAN
THAT IT WOULD JUSTIFY ITSELF
FROM THE STANDPOINT OF MEN.
The party that sells out to the inter
ests invites disaster in equal suffrage
States. The woman forces politics to seek
a higher plane.
Between man and man, what would
you think of anyone who would oppose the
operation of such a force in politic*?
Vote "Yes" on the suffrage amendment on
Election Day.
The New Labor Law
The new Workmen's Compensation Act goes into
effect January Ist, next. If you are an employer of labor
you should be familiar with every phase of this most im
portant piece of legislation. We are prepared to supply
this act in pamphlet form with side headings for easy
reference. Single copies 25c with very special prices on

NO ACID STOMACH,
SOURNESS, GASES
OR INDIGESTION
In five minutes your sick, sour
upset stomach will
feel fine.
"Pape's Diapepsin" neutralizes
acids in stomach and
starts digestion.
Take your sour, out-of-order stom
ach—or maybe you call it indigestion,
dyspepsia or gastritis, it doesn't
matter—take your stomach trouble
right with you to your pharmacist and
ask him to open a 50-cent case of
Pape's Diapepsin and let you eat one
22-grain triangle and see if within
five minutes there is left any trace of
your former misery.
The correct name for your trouble
is food fermentation —acid stomach
—food souring; the digestive organs
become weak, there is lack of gastric
juice; your food is only half digested,
and you become affected with loss of
appetite, pressure and fullness after
eating, vomiting, nausea, heartburn,
griping in bowels, tenderness in the
pit of stomach, bad taste in mouth,
constipation, pain In limbs, sleepeless
ness, belching of gas, biliousness, sick
headache, nervousness, dizziness or
many other similar symptoms.
If your appetite is tickle, and noth
ing tempts you. or you: belch gas or if
you feel bloated after eating, or your
food lies like a: lump of lead on your
stomach, you can make up your mind
that at the bottom of all this there is
but one cause —fermentation of undi
gested food.
Prove to yourself in flue minutes
that your stomach is as good as any;
that there Is nothing really wrong.
Stop this fermentation and begin eat
ing what you want without fear of
discomfort and misery.
Almost instant relief is waiting for
you. It is merely a matter of how
soon you take a little Diapepsin.—Ad
vertisement.

■ CHAPTER XLI.
Pestilence.
As Annette's party passed along,
■lngle file, up the narrow overgrown
shore road, slapping and swatting
mosquitoes to their heart's' content,
ti'.ey heard a quick step behind them.
They turned. An officer closing up
their rear, saluted.
He was the ship's surgeon. He
strode on with brisk pace. "Let me
get ahead there if you please," he
said, "there's something that I don't
like about this place—l want to have
a look."
Scarcely had he said it before a
native woman darted out of a tumble
down hut—one of many that fronted
on the shore road.
"Madre di Dios," she cried In shrill
accents. "Americanos —help—succor.
For the love of heaven."
She kneeled by the roadside and as
the surgeon swung along, she clasped
him by the knees.
"My child —my man child —my only
one," she wailed, in the Spanish
tongue, "he is at death's door. Help,
Senor, senora, senorita—help."
The surgeon lifted the woman to
her feet. He spoke soothingly in
Spanish to her. and turned and told
the others what she said.
"Go on, everybody," he cried, point
ing up the road, "let nobody follow
me. Go your way."
Annette and her little party pro
ceeded forthwith to the hotel —a flimsy
affair, rejoicing in the cognomen ol
the Inn of the Spanish Don.
Hut after hut the surgeon entered,
glancing quizzically into the face of
some sufferer —nodding solemnly with
pursed-up lips—left tablets and direc
tions, and then went on his way.
Finally he found his way to the cen
ter of the town and made an inquiry.
He was directed to a somewhat formal
looking building.
The surgeon strode on into the
house. He found the mayor in his
pajamas, smoking a cigar.
The surgeon seated himself and ac
cepted a palmleaf fan. "Sorry," he
said, "but your place reeks with yel
low fever —you've got an epidemic on
your hands —"
Mayor Ramon Carrol started up
"Madre di Dios," he cried, "what —not
another one. They will impeach me—
it is ruin. Say not so."
The surgeon nodded. "Don't get ex
cited, Senor Carrol," he returned, "for
tunately the Albany is in the road
stead. I'll fetch over a hospital force.
We'll do what we can. Have you got
a piece of paper—l want half a dozen
sheets. That's what I came here for."
He got them and went on his way.
His way lay past the Inn of the Span
ish Don. He stopped.
"Here, Gunner Hardin," he cried,
"come out in the road and spray me
with this." Neal sprayed him. The
surgeon sat down in the hotel office
and harangued Annette s party. He
harrangued them from a distance. "You
people," he said, "are no danger—
not even Mrs. Hardin—if you follow
my instructions.
"The important thing," went on the
surgeon, "is the mosquitoes. It isn't
likely the bites you've got have done
you any harm. I'll leave you tablets
anyhow, to ward the fever oft. But
I'll do more—l'll have mosquito net
ting fetched over from the ship and
you can sleep under it at night. Now
I want help—"
He distributed the sheets of official
paper he had obtained fiom Mayor
Ramon Carrol.
"Sit down—all ot you—anywhere,"
he commanded, "and write out what I
say. It'll be in Spanish—and it's got
to be plain. I'll spell the words so
you won't go wrong. Begin."
And then he dictated the warning
that was posted that afternoon in all
the public places of the town.
NOTICE.
All people are hereby warned
that yellow fever la carried by
mosqultoea. Avoid being bitten If
you can and kll! all the mosqui
toes you find.
RAMON CARROL, Mayor.
In co-operation with U. S. 8. Al
bany.
"Gunner," he said to Neal, "you'r«
on shore leave, I know. But I'd be
glad if you'd buckle to and tack these
up in town. I'll go back to the ship
and get my squad and a few supplies.
Until then good-by."
That afternoon Ramon Carrol, the
mayor of Tortuga, stood, now clad In
his official uniform, in the middle of
his doorway, surrounded by a clamor
ing mob.
"See, now v my people," he ex
claimed, "there is no cause for alarm.
See what I am doing for you—what
other mayor has done so much? Note
the magnificent cruiser—of the United
States—the Albanez— I have sent for
It—it has oome—at my requesL Up
on that cruiser are the most wonder
ful specialists in the world —they are
among you—see, yonder—see their
white coats —here, there, everywhere.
Out of my private fortune (which Is
vast, my children) out of my private
fortune I am paying all these special
ists. . . ." He sighted suddenly a
figure on the outskirts of the crowd.
His manner changed. The figure was
that of the surgeon of the Albany—
he pressed forward and joined the
mayor.

"Ah, senor," said the mayor, speak
ing in a low tone and rapidly, "I have
been telling my people—see I have
congregate them for the purpose—
how noble, beneficent your country Is
—how you have, free of all charge
and without expense—come to our
prosperous little community and have
fight the pestilence. They are grate
ful."
The surgeon snorted. "Excuse me
for a moment," he exclaimed. He
darted down the street and caught a
young woman by the arm just as she
was entering an adobe hut.
The young woman was Annette ll
ington.
"You young renegade," he cried,
sternly, "I thought I told you to keep
away—hands off—you'll kill yourself."
From inside there came a low moan
ing sound —a wail.
I Annette broke away from the sur
geon's grasp. "Gee whiz," he said,
"you're strong.'
The wail inside turned to speech—
quavering Spanish—
"Little white angel," cried the
voice, "come, little white angel—and
lay your hands on me. Come quick,
before I die."
CHAPTER XLI I,
I *
Pernicious Plots.
It was after dark. Out of a clump
of trees upon a hill there sauntered
j forth a man—this man was Ponto. He
picked his way carefully—warily. Be
fore he knew it he was where he
wanted not to be—in the streets of
! the town. Once in, he started out,
but something attracted his attention.
A little crowd of men and women
stood about a placard tasked upon the
j fcide of a hut. Ponto read it swiftly.
Ponto raised his eyebrows signlfl
-1 cantly. He had heard rumors—this
J confirmed them.
I "Mosquitoes," he said softly to him-
I self, "mosquitoes." He tucked the
I word mosquitoes back in the inmost
| recesses of his mind and went his
[ way. Skirting the town he reached
J the Inn of the Spanish Don. From
the rear he spied a figure in a win
j dow. He whistled softly.
J A woman in the window started
slightly, and peered out.
Ponto clambered up to the window
and noiselessly tore the net from it,
immediately replacing it as best he
might. He sniffed the air.
"Ah," whispered Inez Castro softly,
"I am smeared with crude oil—face
and hands and ankles. I am immune.
Here, you smear also, Ponto."
"Where," queried Ponto, "is the
map?"
"So far as I determine," answered
Inez, "she has it still."
"You cannot get it?"
"Not unless I show my hand," said
j Inez.
Ponto shook his head. "Not," he
returned, "until the chief says the
word. What of mine host?" he quer
ied.
"A blood-sucker," answered Inez;
he'll do anything for coin."
"Summon him," said Ponto.
The proprietor was summoned. At
the door, at sight of Ponto he started
back in surprise. But Ponto held his
finger on his lips, and exhibited a
' multitude of coins in the open palm
! of his hand. The proprietor advanced
and quickly appropriated the coin.
"More later," whispered Ponto, "sit
down—confer with us."
An hour later Ponto —a black patch
on the background of black night it
self —stealthily pushed open the door
of a hut in the middle of a clump of
small trees on a hill.
A man ins'.de, waking suddenly, as
suddenly sprang up, knife in hand.
"Soft, capitan," whispered Ponto, "it
is but I."
The two men struck a light and sat
down facing each other.
Ponto spoke in measured tones —ev-
ery word that he uttered from now on
contained portent. He knew what he
was about. In the back of his head
ho had an idea —baleful but useful.
"Yes," he said, "the mosquitoes car
ry the pestilence. One might call it
the mosquito sickness just as well.
And at dusk, then is their time —then
they bite the worst —"
"Go on," commanded Hernandez,
grimly. He felt that Ponto was hold
ing something back.
"The little white angel," went on
Ponto as though rectting a lesson.
"Eh," cried Hernandez.
| "Our young friend of the map—
i that is what they call her—every
where. The little white angel. She
goes about from hut to hut —from fe
ver-stricken patient to fever-stricken
patient—yet she survives. But she
will answer any call."
He leaned forward. "You under
stand, capitan," he said, 'she will an
swer any call. Let sickness call to
her, she goes."
"Ah," said Hernandez, "that is well.
And the gunner—where is he?"
"Everywhere—he, too, will answer
{ any call."
"Um," said Hernandez, "go on—go
j on."
Ponto's eyes gleamed. "Ah," he
said, "one mile out of town —and
through this clump of bushes where
we sit —down in yonder hollow —"
"Go on," commanded Hernandez,
"what lies down in the hollow by this
hill?"

BIG PERCENTAGE

Interesting Deductions Made
by John L. Rockey, Chief of
Industrial Statistics
Over 52 per cent, of the population
of Pennsylvania is occupied in some
gainful manner, according to a state
ment made by J. L. Rockey, State
chief of industrial statistics in the De
partment of Internal Affairs, in a pre
liminary statistical report to Secretary
Henry Houek. The studies made by
the chief are based on census figures
and original compilations and show
that the State has 3,130,681 persons
gainfully employed. New York, which
has 4,003,844, or 54 per cent., of its
population so occupied, is the only one
that leads the Keystone State. Illinois
is next with 2,296,778, or 51 per cent.,
gainfully employed.
The chief says in his report:
A consideration by sex of the popu
lation of these three States, 10 years
old and more, who had gainful occu
pation, indicated these particulars:
New York—Males, 3,020,158, or 81
per cent.; females, 983,686, or 26.7 per
cent,
Pennsylvania—Males, 2,525,245, or
81.3 per cent.; females, 605,436, or 20
per cent.
Illinois—Males, 1,865,422, or 80 per
cent.; females, 431,356, or 20 per cent.
Pennsylvania's population, 10 years
old and more, considered by nativity
and sex, can be arranged In tabular
form to show the number who had
gainful occupation, and their per cent,
of the whole population of that age of
such nativity and sex:
Native white of native parentage,
male, 1,239,765, or 77.4 per cent.;
female, 307,270, or 18.8 per cent.
Native white of mixed or foreign
parentage, male, 451,201, or 76 per
cent.; female, 157,261, or 25.3 per
cent.
Foreign-born white, male, 763.472,
or 92.2 per cent.; female, 101,092, or
18 per cent.
Negro, male, 68,515, or 86 per cent.;
female, 39,671, or 48.7 per cent.

Just after the start of the third heat
Peter's hobbles broke and Driver She
