"And that's how Dalton-Sturges
Realty Corporation came to be,
eluded Pat, flinging back his gray
head with the old B P ir ' t .f d rl A®mlte
and sending out a brilliant smile
that embraced Carlotttt, N c<
"~We were a strange quartette to be
lunching together. . in ,'u o
stranger still to know tha *:
lobby of the very hotel There we
were sitting, Virginia and Vhocbe
would meet at 3 o clock. But
story Pat had just finished telling
me seemed strangest of all.
On the day I had left him waiting
for Neal to reappear in the lobby of
the Eyersham building, the germ of
the idea lodged in Pat's brain, ror
a long time the Sturges Construc
tion Company had been trying to in
duce Pat to give up his own real
estate offices and take a position wlin
them. „ .
"I couldn't." said Tat. "I eoUldn t
make it —fhen." . .
And it flashed across my rmna
that ht must have had a strong
sentimental reaction against going
into the company that had hec" ,r J"
strumental in ruining A irginia s
father. ~ . -
For a second I lost the thrqad of
Pat's story, hut presently I heard
him going on to tell how he had
skirmished around until finally lie
dug up young Neal's address through
a soldier of his division whom ur
lotta spotted at the Canteen. Then
the growth of the idea—partly ( ar
ietta's partly Pat's—Pat could well
afford to take a position with the
Sturges Construction Company if
someone he could trust were in
charge of his own books. Neal was
an expert accountant "with a head
for figures," so Pat up it up to Neal,
who was delighted.
In the final working out of the
plans, Pat's own company was made
a sister corporation of the big com
pany. Pat himself took office in
the Sturges Construction Company
with the understanding that he was
to divide his time between liis new
position and his own company. Ami
the Dalton-S'urges Realty Corpora
tion was left in charge of Neal and
an expert real estate man, long in
Pat's employ.
Neal smilingly took up the refrain
with which Pat had rounded out his
story:.
"And that's how the Dalton-

"I had a very annoying sensation
on the back of my neck. Finally

were hard and large, and
the itching was so bad
that it kept me scratching.
I could not sleep at night.

I didn t know. I couldn't guess.
As for Neal, he was safe from

with the foes of the house of'Har
rison, I knew the pride of that fam
ly well enough to fear that the
•breach between Neal and Jim, be
tween Neal and Phoebe, was now a
chasm too wide for any bridging.
But the question to which my
mind circled back hopelessly was
this:
"Why had Pat gone over'to the
Sturges Construction Company in the
end? To help Neal? To hurt Vir
ginia? To further his own business
interests?"
I didn't know, but I knew that I
must make it my business to find out.
All this whirled through my mind
while Pat was telling his story and
Neal was commenting on it: but
when it came my time to speak I
managed to show no trace of my
worried thoughts. Instead I said,
expressing the one reaction it was
safe to make public:
"Oh, Neal —this is so just right
for you that don't know how to
thank the friends who have made it
possible! The real estate business
strikes me as the big thing to-day
and I'm so glad you're to learn it.
I suppose there'll be building again,
and you'll be there to watch things
start up. And to build! Pat, Car
lotta. you're making me very happy
when you give my brother his
chance."
"Say, it's pretty blamed lucky for
rue that I have Neal to help me
take about ten jumps up the ladder,"
said T'at, generously. "I need money
I've always needed it. But things
never were right before. Now—
with this pal and side partner, they
are right. Oon't thank me."
"Nor mo, Carlotta took her cigar
et from between her lips and waved
the whole thing away like smoke.
"1 have to be doing something. To
work off surplus energy, you know.
And there was that little debt about
I.ootie and the Canteen. I haven't
began to pay you yet, Mrs. Jimmie."
On that note our luncheon ended.
The big clock over the door pointed
to 3:15. Virginia and Phoebe.would
be gone.
\ Bu-t I had reckoned without fem
inine carelessness in regard to time.
For when -we got to the lobby, there
sat Virginia—alone.

NEW CALENDAR SUGGESTED
WITH THIRTEEN MONTHS
Each Would Have Exactly Four Weeks; Would Help in
Business Calculations

THIS IS THE WHOLE CALENDAR. EVERY MONTH JUST LIKE THIS
FOR A MILLION YEARS.
Now Year Day it not included in any week or month.
"Correction Day" once each four years not included in any week or month*'
The remaining 364 dayi divided into 13 montha of exactly 4 weeks each*
every month commencing with Monday. A Bill already in Congress.
The months are January, February, Liberty, March, Etc.
The above shows a cut of the
much talked of new Liberty Calen
dar. The mere suggestion that this
plan of measuring time should take
the place of our present calendar is
enough to make any real nice, old
fashioned, conservative person gasp
for breath. To such a person it
would seem preposterous that any
one should have the nerve and ef
frontery to propose such a radical
change in our time-honored and
much-revered, though atrociously
consctructed, old-time calendar.
It would be bad enought if some
one were to simply offer a slight
amendment to the calendar, —such
for instance as Caesar Augustus
asked for when he got peeved be
cause his month of August con
tained only thirty days, while July,
named for Julius Caesar, contained
thirty-one. The august personage,
in his petty jealousy, asked the
Roman Senate to add an extra day
to his month, and straightway it was
done. They did it by simply rob
bing poor little February of one of
its twenty-nine days.so that through
all .the ages since, this little, sawed
off month has had to get along with
only twenty-eight, barring each
•fourth year. However, it was a com
mon thing in those days to change
the calendar semioccasionally.
But, —to get back to this Liberty
Calendar scheme: It is not simply
a slight change which is proposed
by the men who are advocating
this new plan, but they want to do
away with all of the 420 little
squares—thirty-five to the month—
which Are now used to make up our
yearly calendar, and place in their
stead an insignificant little bunch
of only twenty-eight squares. Not
content with this, these people pre
tend to say that this little Liberty
Calendar of only twenty-eight
squares will not have to be printed
new every year, but that a person
might simply cut ontthe above very
simple form, paste it on a card, and
use it all the rest of his natural
life. Indeed, these men claim that
after a few months' experience un
der this Liberty Calendar, everyone
would have it memorrized, and
thereafter all printed culendars of
every sort might be thrown into the
waste basket for good and all. In
cidentally, this would mean a sav
ing of $15,000,000,000 a year now
spent for printed calendars.
The people referred to are the
fifty Minneapolis business and pro
fessional men who a few months
since organized the American Equal
Month Calendar Association and are
now "seeding down" the whole
country with their pet calendar idea.
Strange to say, the organizers of
this association do not belong to
the ancient and accepted order of
cranks, but they are hard-headed,
practical businessmen. In fact,
among them are bankers, lawyers,
merchants and manufacturers, while
four of the six officers of the as
sociation are officers of banks or
other leading corporations. The ten
directors are all business or profes
sional men of high standing in the
community.
In framing the calendar, only
three slight changes were made in
the present form. First, New Year's
Day was made an independent legal
holiday. It is placed between the
last day of December and the first
day of January, but it is not in
cluded in any week or month. Then,
the remaining 364 days are divided
into thirteen months of exactly four
weeks each, every month commenc
ing with Monday. This is certainly
simplicity itself.
Of course, the extra day in Leap
Years also had to be provided for.
but the same unique plan was again
followed, and another Independent
day called "Correction Day" is pluced
at tho end of each fourth year be
tween the last day of December and
New Year's Day of the following
year. These two independent days
are to be known by their names
and not by number dates. For in
stance, "New Year Day 1923," or
"Correction Day 1924." Thus every
calendar year for all time to come
is provided with just thirteen
months of exactly four weeks each.
In order to retain all the funda
mentals of the present calendar,
"Correction Day" is omitted from
the last year of all centuries not
evenly divisible by 400. This is nec
essary because our calendar year is
out of joint with the true Solar year
to the extent of thirty-four seconds
per annum. Some people suppose
our present months are governed by
the moon, but this is a mistake, as
the use of Lunar months was dis
continued ages ago.
The new month of Liberty is
placed next after January and Feb
ruary in the new form simply be
cause of similarity of sound. It is
explained that the new calendar was
constructed not so much with an
idea of furnishing a convenience for
the next few years, but it was con
structed with a view to furnish
ing a well thought out and scien
tific plan which should be used and
appreciated through all the ages to
come. And because Of this fact,
people must not complain about a
little inconvenience in observing
birthdays or about other matters
of a trivial sort. Speaking of birth
days—most people do not know that
George Washington was not born on
February 22, but on February 11.
He was born before our present cal
endar was adopted by Great Britain
and the American colonies.
The summer season under the
new form is given four months, but
each of the other seasons is given
three months as heretofore. It is
claimed that this arrangement will
be more true to nature than our
present division.
The plan also provides that Good
Friday and Easter Sunday shall al
ways be observed on certain fixed
dates. This was contemplated when
our present was adopted.
The officers of the association are
informed that the French Academy
of Sciences favors their plan and
will advocate its adoption by all the
nations which shall join the new
international league. A bill for the
adoption of the Liberty Calendar
has already been introduced in our
Congress, and another bill will be
introduced in both the House and
the Senate at the extra session. The
bill provides that the change to the
new form shall take effect on the
first day of the year, 1922. This will
make the transition very easy, as
that day will be Sunday "as well as
New Year's Day, aud the next day
will be Monday, January 1. There
after, at the end of each four weeks,
a new month will begin, and this
will be the regular order to the end
of time. All the months will be
exactly alike, and this will continue
for all the ages to come.
It is shown that under this sim
ple Liberty Calendar one will be
able to tell on what day of the week
any future date will fall, even
though that date should be a thou
sand years hence. Also that under
the new form there would he no
more five Sundays to the month to
upset all our calculations. Every
holiday and every anniversary will
always fall on its particular day of
the week. It will be on the same
day of the week in every year
Strange to say. the Fourth 'of July'
Thanksgiving pay and Christmas'
will all come on Thursday every
year, after this change is made
A promissory note given for any
number of weeks, months and years
will always mature on the same dav
of the week it was given. Hundreds
of thousands of notes and contracts
are executed every day of the year
and it would be a great conveni
ence to both part'cs to the contracts
if they could know on what day of
the week each obligation would ma
ture. This is impractical now, but
under the Liberty Calendar the ma
turity day would be known at once
The new plan will also be a great
convenience to both employers of
labor and to employee.

A conceited puppy! I doubt if any
other three words in the language can
call up such an obnoxious picture.
We all have had to endure him
as the son of some friend or in other
circumstances which restrained us
from homicide. gritting our teeth
helplessly as he paraded before us
his strutting mannerisms and affecta
tions.
And his feminine counterpart is no
better—whether as the supercilious ,
high school girl who takes delight in
correcting her elders, or the Liydia
Languish who at sixteen has all the
airs and graces of a woman of the
world.
Conceit is essentially a fault of
youth—the one fault of youth which
Experience finds it hardest to bear.
And Experience does it best on every
occasion and at every opportunity to
knock the conceit out of Youtn. Ex- j
perience regards this as a duty; it is |
for Youth's own good. Yet after all, I
conceit is Youth's greatest asset.

him. He was about seventeen when

upon some similar errand of purely

Here Is One Thing That
Is Absolutely Impossible
Rheumatism Has Never Been
Cured By Liniments or Lo
tions, and Never Will Be.
You never knew of Rheumatism
—that most painful source of suf
fering—being cured by liniments,
lotions or other external applica
tions. And you will never see any
thing but temporary relief afforded
by such makeshifts.
But why be satisfied with tem
porary relief from the pangs of
pain which are sure to return with
increased severity, when there is per
mament relief within your reach?
Science has proven that Rheumatism
is a disordered condition of the ;
blood. How, then, can satisfactory
results be expected from any treat- i
in en t that does not reach the blood,
lion and send him slinking in retreat.
The young man did not • get the
recommendation he .vas after. In
stead, before he left, he had received
j the offer of a responsible position
with the financier himself, and ulti
mately he rose to bo the tatter's right
hand man.
Some one once asked that eminent
personage how he could stand such a
conceited puppy about him?
"I can't," replied the financier; "but
I keep him because with my knowl
edge and his conceit I find there Is
nothing we cannot together accomp
lish."
| And'it was not only in the domain
of business that this precious youth
shone. To hear him talk about him
self, one would have imagined him a
second Admirable Crichton. There
was apparently no province of human
endeavor literature, science, art,
music sport—in which he did not be
lieve he could excel, if he but chose
to put his mind to it. He looked with
lusterless eye upon the achievements
j of the great, and always seemed to
i imply that he could easily go them
| one better.
And the worst of it was that he was
constantly proving his contention.
Xfe published a book before he was
20 which attracted wide and very
favorable notice. He was a crack
swimmer and tennis player, an adept
on the violin, an amateur actor, who
might have passed us a professional,
and the inventor of a valuable and in
genious electrical device.
But, to use the vernacular, he got
there. And what is more, he has
learned the art and the grace of con
cealing his ingrained belief in his
own abilities, and is now a very
agreeable person.
That joyous certainty of its own
untried powers is Youth's particu
j lar contribution to the world and
j something the world needs. And
! what, after all, is experience? Isn't
j it, mqre often .than not merely; an

fit It. A OH) IN THE SYSTEM
By Lee H. Smith, M. D.
Uric acid is now generally recog
nized as the cause of more diseases
than was heretofore believed. When
the kidneys are out of order uric
acid accumulates within the body in
! super abundance. The disordered
kidneys do not filter the poisons out
of the blood, as they ought to do.
and so the poisons remain in the
blood and float around until they
find a place to lodge, in form of
urate salts. The tiling to remember
is that you may have rheumatism in
any part, of the body you may have
pains anywhere your back may
ache and your head may be dizzy
but the trouble is not where the
pain appears. The trouble is in the
kidneys, and what is the first thing
to do? You must get that excess uric
acid out of your system, which can
be done by taking Anuric Tablets,
the splendid remedy which Dr Pierce,
of Buffalo, N. Y., has put on sale in
the drug stores at a low price. Anuric
Tablets (made double strength),
when taken- into the system as medi
cine, hav the peculiar power of dis
solving the uric acid deposited there.
DrOp a bit of sugar or salt into hot
water, and it will disappear. In pre
cisely the same way do these Anuric
Tablets dissolve uric acid. Of course,
after ridding the system of uric acid,
it may return again unless you eat
.the right foods and live the right
kind of life, but Dr. Pierce will ad
vise you fully on proper food and
correct living if you write and ask
him. He makes no charge for such
advice. Take Anuric Tablets today,
by all means, and get that uric acid
out cf your system. Don't, don't,
don't, put the matter off.
