Starbuck was frowning sourly.
"Suppose you make it a case of sus
pended judgment, Doc," he suggest
ted. "The few of us here who know
; anything about It are giving John
ithe benefit of the doubt. They'll have
i to show me, and half a dozen of us,
before they can send him over the
i road."
"He knew they were after him?"
"Sure thing:; and he had all the
i chance he needed to make his get
-away. He was shot while he was
jtrying to get between and stop the
■war and keep others from getting
ikilled."
"It's a pity," said the surgeon,
glancing across at the police cap
tain to whom Colonel Baldwin was
appealing. "They'll put him in the
! hospital cell at the jail, and that will
jcost him whatever slender chance
the might otherwise have to pull
through."
Starbuck looked up quickly. "Tell
"em he can't be moved, Doc Dan,"
he urged suddenly. And then:

fcician, and Colonel Dexter's, and

BE CANNY— '
Everybody can! Put your spare
£time into cans and jars.
Home canning is kitchen patriot
ism.
Don't have an empty preserving
jar in your neighborhood next fall.
If you have more preserving jars
. than you can fill, lend them to a
.neighbor who will make them worn
.for the nation.
Some neighbor surely can eat or
put up surplus products from your
place.
A quart of canned peaches or
tomatoes on the shelf is worth a
bushel rotting on the ground.
See that tha shelves in your pre
serving closet sag just a little this
year.
Weeding will seem easy next
winter when mother serves those
home-canned string beans.

"I can, and I will," said the sur
geon promptly.
Three days after the wholesale ar
rest at the dam, Brewster gossip had
fairly outworn itself telling and re
telling the story of how the High
I-rtne charter had been saved; of how
Crawford Stanton's bold ruse of hir
ing an ex-train robber to imperson
ate a federal court officer had fallen
through leaving Stanton and his
confederates, ruthlessly abandoned
by the unnamed principals, languish
ing bailless in jail; or how Smith,
the hero of all these occasions, was
still lying at the point of death in the
office shack at the construction camp
and David Kinzie, once more in keen
pursuit of the loaves and fishes, was
combing the market for odd shares
of the stock, which was now climb
ing swiftly out of reach. But at this
climax of exhaustion—or safety—
came a distinctly new set of thrills,
more titillating, if possible, than all
the others combined.
It was on the morning of the f third
day that the Herald announce'd the
return of Mr. Joseph Richlander
from the Topaz; and in the mar
riage notices of the same issue the
breakfast table readers of the news
papers learned that the multimil
lionaire's daughter had been private
ly married the previous evening to
Mr. Tucker Jibbey. Two mining
speculators were chuckling over the
news in the Hophra House grill when
a third man came in to join them.
"What's the joke?" queried the
newcomer; and when he was shown
the marriage item, he nodded grave
ly. "That's all right; but the Herald
man didn't get the full flavor of it.
It was a sort of running match, it
seems; the fond parent wasn't in- i
vited or consulted."
"I don't see that the fond parent
has any kick coming," said the one
who had sold Jibbey a promising
prospect hole on Topaz mountain two
days earlier. "The young fellow's
g>ot all konds of money."
I "I know," the land broker put in.!
"But they're whispering it around
! that Mr. Richlander had other plans
J for his daughter. They also say that
1 Jibbey wouldn't stay to face the
j music; that he left on the midnight j
' train last night a few hours after |
the wedding, so as not to be among
those present when the old man
should blow in."
"What?"—in a chorus of two —i
"left his wife?"
"That's what they say. But that's
only one of the new and startling
things that isn't in the morning pa
pers. Have you heard about Smith?
—or haven't you been up long
enough yet?"
"I heard yesterday that he was be
ginning to mend," replied the break
faster on the left.
"You're out of date," this from the
dealer in ranches. "You know the
story that was going around about
his being an escaped convict, or
something of that sort? It gets its
'local color' this morning. There's
a sheriff here from back East some
where—came in on the early train;
name's Macauley, and he's got the
requisition papers. But Smith's fool
ed him good and plenty."
Again the chorus united in an
eager query.
"How?"
"He died last night—a little past
midnight. They say they're going to
bury him out at the dam—on the
job that he pulled through and stood
on its feet. One of Williams' quarry
men drifted in with the story just a
little while ago. I'm here to bet you
even money that the whole town
goes to the funeral."
"Great gosh!" said the man who
was crunching the burnt bacon. "Say,
that's tough, Bixby! I don't care
what he'd run away from back East;
he was a man, right. Harding has
been telling everybody how Smith
wouldn't let the posse open fire on
that gang of hold-ups last Friday
night; how he chased across on the
dam stagings alone and unarmed to
try to serve the warrants on 'em and
make 'em stop firing. It was glorious
but it wasn't war."
To this the other mining- man add
ed a hard word. "Dead," he gritted:
"and only a few hours earlier the
girl had taken snap judgment on
him and married somebody else!
That's the woman of it!"
"Oh, hold on, Stryker," the ranch
broker protested. "Don't you get too
fierce about that. There are two
strings to that bow, and the longest
and shortest one runs out to Colonel
Baldwin's place on Little creek, I'm
thinking. The Richlander business
was only an incident. Stanton told
me that much."

"Pros and Cons of the Great War,"
by Leonard Magnus, which E. P.
I Dutton & Co. have recently pub
j lished, brings together in compact
form with the greatest conciseness
of statement the arguments for and
| against the various incidents, phases
J and developments of the conflict.
The author describes it as "a com-
I pila'ion of opinions" and says that
the arguments "are stated primarily
from the foreign point of view." The
material has ben drawn in the main
\ from German and other foreign
I sources, with occasional reference to
official documents, and the book is
| dedicated "To the Enemy," with a
text from II Samuel, "Thy mouth
| hath testified against thee."
I "Yes, it is a fact that without any
I form of control it is possible that
we may be bare of breadstuffs in the
last three months of next year," says
Herbert Hoover.
"Without regulation." says Alfred
W. McCann, food expert, in his
book, "Thirty-cent Bread," Just pub
j lished by the George H. Doran Com
pany. "we shall have bread cards
I ana soup kitchens within a year."
Great minds think alike some
times! Is the inverse true? And, if
so, does it account for the log-jam
of food (and all other) legislation in
l Congress to-day?
The plot and characters of Mr.
Phlllpott?' new novel, "The Banks of
Colne," published by Macmillan, are
drawn from two intensely interest
ing industries of the Devonshire
country—a great flower nursery and
landscape gardening concern, and
the oyster fisheries on the coast.
The story develops in a leisurely
way with the remarkable descrip
tions of nature which have charac
terized all of Mr. Phillpotts' writ
ings. The people are real. They
have grown lip out of the soil on
which they play out their little
drama, and the natural settings
seem to envelope and color their
souls. This quality Is partly a result
of Mr. Phillpotts' way of working.
Hi goes to the locality which is to
be the scene of his story, and there
he lives among the people, getting
to know them Intimately and dis
covering the fundamental relations
between them and the background.
From the very start "The Banks of
Colne" is filled with unusual situa
tions, and though the climax caraes
as a startling surprise, it is both
dramatic and natural, the inevitable
result of evil doing in one case and
a wrong judgment in a great crisis
of love and devotion In the other.
Built Church Fropi
Old Paving Stones
East St. Louis, 111. The remain
ing $750 of a debt of $20,000 incurred
by the Winstanley Baptist Church
here, when it built an edifice out of
discarded paving- stones three years
ago has been paid. ,
The Rev. E. W. Reeder was going to
St. Louis on a street car when he saw
laborers tearing the paving stones out
of Broadway, in this city.
He had desired for some time to
build a new church, but money was
lacking. He conceived the idea of
using the discarded stones. They were
bought from the city for a small sum.
The new church was built by mem
bers of its congregation and Mr. Reed
er. The latter donned overalls and
directed the work. It required eight
months to complete the structure. The
site and the building cost a total of
SB,OOO.

All's Well That
* Ends Well M
How One Family Moved I:
Their Neighbor:
By JAXE McLEAN.
Human nature is a funny thing.
Sometimes one never knows what it
is one really wants until some one
else voices a desire for it. Mrs. Per
kins never knew that she wanted to
move into the country until her life
long friend, Mrs. Starr,
that she was going. The Petßns J
family had lived next door toßhe
Starrs for many years. Mrs. Permns
and Mrs. Starr were fast friends, the
children had grown up together,
family problems of finance had been
openly discussed between them, and
now the Starrs had amassed enough
money to take a house in the sub- j
urbs.
It -wasn't exactly the fact that !
Mrs. Perkins was going to miss Mrs. j
Starr, for miss her she would, but it
was listening to the wonderful in
ducements set forth by the real es
tate agent, and knowing that there
wasn't sufficient capital in the Per
kins coffer to permit of going with
their neighbors.
"I shall miss you so much,' Mrs.
Perkins said, wiping a stray tear
from her eye on the day that she
saw the last of her neighbor. "Life !
is going to be so strange without;
you."
"Oh. you will be coming along out
yourself before long," Mrs. Starr re
turned confidently. And the two
women kissed, and promised to see
each other often. "The latch string
will always be out for the Perkins
family out at Wood Crest," called
Mrs. Starr as she said good-by for
the last time. But Mrs. Perkins
knew that it would be a long time
before they could afford to buy a
house in the suburbs, even on the
easy payment basis.
That night she was very quiet.
The children made the same hubbub
that they always made at the even
ing meal, and Dave Perkins looked
across at his wife understandingly,
a tender look in his tired eyes.
"Guess we're going to miss them;
Eh. Jennie. But cheer up, we're all
well and we have each other."
And Mrs. Perkins could not help
but respond to this. She was not a
selfish woman and not for the world
would she have had her husband
suspect that it was because they
couldn't move to the suburbs, too,
that she was so downcast and for
lorn.
Time passed and the Starrs slowly
got settled. Mrs. Perkins went out
to spend the day one Saturday and
took the children with her. Mr.
Perkins was to come out with Mr.
Starr on the late train. The little
house was all that it had promised
to be. Set in a small square of gar
den it was small, but it had a wide
veranda, and all the little modern at
tachments like casement windows
and winding stairs that are unknown
to the ordinary city apartment.
Mrs. Perkins fancied that Mrs.
Starr looked a little tired as she wel
comed them, but she put this down
to getting settled, and after the chil
dren had run out to play the two
women sat down together in the cozy
living room.
"It's lovely," sighed Mrs. Perkins,
"Just what I imagined it would be.
Imagine having a bedroom with four
windows, and this room is so sweet,
the entire place is perfect. And
your veranda, how I do envy
sitting out there in the evening."
Mrs. Starr smiled. "Yes, it's all
lovely," she admitted, "but there are
drawbacks, Jennie, that I never
knew about. For one thing, the ver
anda has to be screened and as we
did not think of that we shall have
to pay for it ourselves. Then things
are much higher here than they are
in the city and John is tired out
every night after that stuffy trip
down. I don't sleep well, either;
there are dogs that bark all night
and chickens that begin when they
leave off. Oh, it isn't all as splendid
ar we had thought. Of course, we
like it, and we're not at all sorry that
we did it, but I hope these discom
forts are not going to last."
Mrs. Perkins laughed. "Of course
they won't last," she said brightly.

into the Country and What
s Thought of It
"You're just tired out from getting:
settled. It's always that way after
you move." But somehow she felt
more satisfied than she had for a
long time. If there were really
darwbacks about moving into the
country, she could accept her own
fate with less reluctance.
They all had a pleasant day. The
two men came down for dinner and
there was much fun and laughter at
the cheery dinner table.
"Tou people will be moving down
here yourselves, before long," said
genial John Starr, as the Perkinses
prepared to go.
Dave Perkins shook his head.
"Well, it isn't all as rosy as we
had expected," Starr returned. "This
commuting is an awful nuisance. I
had no idea it would bother me so.
And I have to get up so much ear
lier in the morning, too."
The Perkins children were tired
out when, after the train ride, they
reached their own home. Somehow
the apartment looked very cozy to
Jennie Perkins, and, after all, the
country was lonely.
"I don't like the country," said
small Jerry, disdainfully, as he was
getting ready for bed.
"Neither do I," returned his sister.
"I'm glad we don't have to live down
there."
And as their mother heard the en
suing conversation she smiled a lit
tle and murmured to herself. Every
thing has come out for the best."

Dangerous Gas and Acids That
Hurt the Stomach—Sour the Food
Cause Dyspepsia, Indigestion
Recommends A Safe Way To Treat Stomach Trouble
At Home.
Many stomach sufferers who are
always full of jras and whose stom
achs burn with acid after nearly
every meal think these thinjrs are
the RESULT of indigestion when in
reality they are the CAUSE.
It is just as foolish to give arti
ficial digestents such as pepsin, etc..
to a stomach full of gas and acid
as it would be for a man who had
stepped on a tack to rub limiment
on his foot without removing the
tack.
Some stomachs generate too
much gas and acid. Gas distends
the stomach walls causing a full,
bloated oppressive feeling while
the acid irritates and inflames the
lining of the stomach. Naturally the
food ferments and sours, digestion
is often delayed and stomach mis
ery is the result. Artificial digest-

ents will push this sour, ferment
ing mass into the intestines and so
relieve the stomach pain but the
acid still remains in the stomach
to generate more gas and produce
more trouble at the next meal.
If you are using digestive aids
after meals drop them for a while
and instead get a few 5-grain tab
lets of pure bisurated magnesia
from Geo. A. Gorgas or any drug
gist and take two with each meal.
Bisurated Magnesia does not digest
food but will neutralize the exces
sive acid in your stomach, keep the
food sweet and will drive the gas
and bloat right out of your body.
As Magnesia is prepared in various
forms he sure to get Bisurated
Magnesia for this purpose as it is
not a laxative and in this refined
form will not injure the stomach
in any way.
