Sweet Spanish peppers, pimentos.
Chili peppers and cayenne seasoning
add to the appearance as well as'to the
-tste of foods and deserve to bp used
far more often than they are all
through the year.
But even the mildest peppers are too
hot for the average palate unless they
are drawn and tempered before they
are cooked. To do this eut the tops
from the peppers and remove every seed
and as much of the white fibrous lining
as you can get out for this is the '.'hot"
part. Nbw soak the peppers in cold
salted water for several hours, then
prepare them for the table.
If you are in haste you can draw them
by blanching them, after seeding them,
in boiling water.
A delightful way to cook peppers is
to cut them in strips, after they have
been soaked or par boiled, and cook
them in cream. Season with salt and
butter and thicken the mixture a little
with moistened cornstarch.
Louisiana excels in cooking peppers,
perhaps because the best and sweetest
peppers are raised there and the cooks
have more opportunity to perfect the
recipes. Or it may be that peppers
taste better in the south because they
are always accompanied by other foods
that blend well with their sweet, pep
pery, spicyness.
Green peppers, stuffed with ham,
is a recipe from a notable Creole cook
who recommends it as a quickly made
and satisfactory combination. Soak
eight green peppers ns directed above.

the peppers with this, replace the tops,
or not. as you like, and stand them in
a shallow pan of water in a hot oven.
When they are brown and tender serve
them with the main dinner course.

The red peppers are "cooked" by the

then the insides are spread with melted
luster, the force meat tilling may be
the same as above, or all meat. A very
well liked filling is boiled rice and to

How to Cure a La Grippe Cough
"Coughs that hang on" demand treat
' ment. Stop and think! Reason and
! common sense tell you that it is folly
jto "grin and boar it." Those racking
| la grippe coughs that wrench the body
j and cause soreness and pains in the
lungs yield more quickly to Foley's
! Honey and Tar than to any other treat
ment. Forty years' record of success
| proves this. For coughs, colds, croup
and other distressing ailments of throat,
chest, lungs, larynx and bronchial tubes,
you can find nothing that will compare
1 with this reliable remedy. Geo. A. Gor

Blang! The glass of the window
shivered and Jingled to the floor,
and a sharp report followed. Tlje
vogue cried out in fierce anguish,
and reeled against the wall. William
whipped out his revolver, but. even
from his favorable angle, he was not
quick enough. The hand that had di
rected the first bullet was ready to
direct the second.
All thi3 took place within the count
of ten. The girl and I sat stiffly in
our chairs, as if petrified, it was all
so swiftly accomplished.
"Drop it!" said a cold, authori
tative voice, and I saw the vague out
lines of Haggerty's face beyond the
broken window-pane.
Wiliam knew better than to hesi
tate. His revolver struck the floor
dully, and a curse rolled from his
lips. Immeriately a heavy body pre
cipitated itself against the door, which
crashed inward, and an officer fear
lessly entered, a revolver in each
hand. This tableau, which lasted f;J
ly a minuV. was finally disturbed by
the entrance of Haggerty hi nisei f.
"Don't be alarmed, Mifs,"
hfcA: tily; "it's all over. I'm sorry for
the bullet, but it had to be done The
rascal has nothing more serious than
a splintered bone. I a-.n a dead shot.
A fine night!"—triumphantly. "It's
beon a long chase, and I never was
sure of the fitiisl). You're the clever
est rogue it has been ray good fortune
tt> meet this many a day. 1 don't
even know who you are yet. Well,
well! we'll round that up in time."
Not till the candles again sputtered
with light, and William was securely
handcuffed and disarmed, did 1 recol
lect that I possessed the sense of mo
tion. The smoke of powder drifted
across the flickering candles, and
there was a salty taste on ray
tongue.
"Horrible!" cried the girl, covering
her eyes.
The master rogue and his valet
were led out into the assembly-room,
and we reluctantly followed. I saw
it all now. When Haggertv called up
central at the club, he ascertained
where the last call had been from,
and, learning that it came from Holly
wood Inn, he took his chance. The
room was soon filled with servants
and stable-hands, the pistol-shot hav
ing lured them from their beds. The
wounded man was very paie. lie
sat with his uninjured hand tightly
clasped above the ragged wound, and
a little pool of blood slowly formed at
his side on the floor. But his eyes
shone brightly.
"A basin of water and some linen!"
cried the girl to Mortarty. "And send
all these people away."
"To yer rooms, ivery one of ye!"
snapped Moriarty, sweeping his hands.
'"Tis no place for ye. be off!" He
hurried the servants out of the room,
and presently returned with a basin
of water, some linen and balm.
We watched the girl as she bathed
and bandaged the wounded arm: and
once or twice the patient smiled. Hag
gerty looked on approvingly, and in
William's eyes there beamed the gen
tle light of reverence. It was a pic
ture to see this lovely creature play
ing the part of the good Samaritan,
moving here and there is her exquisite
gown. Ah. the tender mercy! I knew
that, come w?\at might, I had strange
ly found the right woman, the one
woman.
"You're a good little woman." said
the rogue, his face softening: "and a
good woman is the finest thing God
ever placed upon earth. Had I only
found one!" He turned whimsically
toward me. "Are you engaged to mar
ry this little woman?"
"No."
"Surely you love her!"
"Surely 1 do!" I looked bravely at
the girl as 1 spoke.
But she never gave any sign that
she heard. She pinned the ends of
the bandages carefully.
"And what brought you to this?"
asked Haggerty, looking down at his
prisoner.
The prisoner shrugged.
"Tou've the making of a fine mar
in you," went on Haggerty generously
"What caused you to slip up?"
"That subject is taboo," replied the
thief. "But I want to beg your par
don for underestimating your cun
ning."
"It was all due to a chance shot at
the telephone."
"I kept you guessing."
"Merrily, too. My admiration is
wholly yours, sir," returned Haggerty,
r h« Girl and I Out of Holly
wood Inn.
picking up the telephone exchange
book. He rang and placed bis lips to
tne transmitter, calling a number.
"Hello! It this the chief of the Blank
shlre police? Yes? Well, this Is Hag
gerty. That idea 1 hinted to you was
a mighty good ane. Prepare two strong
cells and have a doctor on hand.
What? Oh. you will find your horse
and carriage at Moriarty's. Good-bye!"
My money was handed over to me.
I returned it to my wallet, but with
out any particular enthusiasm.
"It's bad business. Wiliam," said I.
"It's all in the game, sir," —with a
look at Haggerty that expressed in
"ini'e hatred. "In our business we
can't a.Tcrd to be careless."
"Or to talk too much," supple
mented his master, smiling. "Talk,
ay friend, rounds me up with a bul
let in the arm. and a long sojourn be
hind stone wails. Never talk. Thank
you, too, Mr. Cornstalk, for the saving
graoe of humor. If it were possible,
I should like to give Miss Hawthorne
;he pick of the jewels. This is a sor
did world."
"Ye'er car-r is coming!" shouted
Moriarty, running to the window.
So the girl and I passed out of Hol
lywood Inn, leaving Haggerty with his
mysterious piisoners. I can't reason
it on' even to this day, but I was gen
uinely sorry that Haggerty had ar
rived upon the scene. For one thing,
he had spoiled the glamour of the ad
venture by tingeing it with blood. And
on the way to the car I wondered what
had been the rogue's past, what had
turned him into this hardy, perilous
path. He had spoken of a woman;
perhaps that was It. They are al
ways behind good actions and bad.
Heigh-ho!
Ouce we were seated in the lonely
car, the girl broke down and cried as
if her heart would break. It was only
the general reaction, but the sight of
her tears unnerved me.
"Don't cry. girl: dor.'t!" 1 whispered,
taking her hand in mine. She made
no effort to repulse me. "I am sorry.
The rascal was a gallant beggar, and
I for one shouldn't have been sorry to
see him get away. There, there!
You're the bravest, tenderest girl in
all this world; and vhen 1 told htm I
loved you, God knows I meant it! It
is one of those inexplicable things.
1 You say I have known you only eight
! hours? 1 have known you always,
only I had not met you. What are
eight hours? What is convention,
! formality? We two have lived a life
time in these eight hours. Can't you
i see that we have?"
"To shoot a human being!" she
I sobbed. Her head fell against my
| shoulder. I do not believe she was
j conscious of the fact. And T did not
! care a hang for the conductor.
I patted her hand encouragingly, "ft
had to be done. He was in a des
! perate predicament, and he would
have shot Haggerty had the detective
i been careless In his turn; and he
j wouldn't have amied to maim, either."
j "What a horrible night! It will
haunt me as leng as I live!"
I said nothing: aiul we did not
j speak again till the first of the Blank
shire lights flashed by us. By this
I time her sobs had ceased.
"I know I haven't done anything
especially gallant to-night; no light
ing. no rescuing, and all. that. They
just, moved me around like a piece of
stage scenery."
A smile flashed and was gone. It
was a hopeful sign.
"But the results are .the same. You
have admitted to nic that you are
neither engaged nor married. Won't
you take me on —on approval?"
"Mr. Cornstalk, It all seems so like
a horrid dream. You are a brave
man, and, what is bstter, a sensible
one, for you submitted to the inevit
able with the best possible grace. But
you talk of love as readily as a hero
in a popular novel."
"I never go back," said I. "It seems
incredible, doesn't it, thai I should
declare myself in this fashion? Listen,
for my part, I believe that all this was
written, —my Tomfoolery in Mou
quin's. my imposture and yours, \he
two identical cards, —the adventure
from beginning to end."
Silence.
"Suppose I should say," the girl be
gan looking out of the window, "that
in the restaurant you aroused my
curiosity, that in the cellars my ad
miration was stirred, that the frank
manner in which you expressed your
regard for me to —to the burglar
awakened—"
What?" I cried eagerly.
'Nothing. It was merely a 3upposl
Hon."
"Hang It; I love you!"
"'Are you still the Capuchin, or sim
ply Mr. Cornstalk?"
"I have laid aside all masks, even
that which hides the heart."
She turned and looked me steadily
In the eyes.
"Well?" said I.
"If I took you on— on approval,
what In the world should I do with
you In case you should not suit my
needs?"
"You could return me," said I laugh
ing.
But she didn't.

BIG EATERS GET
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take a Glass of Salts Before Breakfast
If Your Back Hurts or Bladder
Bothers You
The American men and women must
guard constantly against Kiduev trou
ble, because we cat too muXh and all our
food is rich. Our blood is filled with
uric acid which the kidneys strive to
filter out. they weaken from overwork,
become sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog and the result is kidney trouble,
bladder weakness and a general decline
in health.
When your kidneys feel like lumps of
lead; your back hurts or the urine is
cloudy, full of sediment or you are
qbliged to seek relief two or threo
times during the night; if you suffer
with sick, headache or dizzy, nervous
spells, acid stomach, or you have rheu
matism when the weather is bad, get
from your pharmacist about four ounces
of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys will then
act fine. This famous salts is made
from tlie acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate clogged kidneys; to neutralize
the acids in the urine so it no longer is
a source of irritation, thus ending blad
der disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive,; cannot in
jure, makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water beverage, and belongs in
every home, because nobody can make
a mistake by having a good kidney
flushing any time.—Adv.
HUNTERS BLAMELESS IN FIRES
Game Warden Dispels Charge in South
Jersey Forest Blaze
Chatsworth, N. J., Jan. 14.—Ineffi
ciency ot the State forestry service and
not the act of deer hunters, as charged
by the State Forest Commission, was
responsible for the great fire that swept
across the pine belt of Burlington coun
ty last, November, according to a spe
cial report of the conflagration sub
mitted to the State Fish and Game
Commission by Game Warden Charles
C. Morton.
Warden Morton's report is given
! sdded importance because it contradicts
statements by the State Forester, in
which the big fire which burned over
the Wharton tract was used as an argu
ment for a law permitting the killing
off of deer and all small game in the
State.

RIVER SWIRL DIOWNSTIBEE
Two Who Went to Rescue of Promi

'Pittsburgh, Jan. 14. —Robert Oli
ver, aged 36, son of David B. Oliver,
piesident of the Board of Education
and nephew of United States Senator
Ueorge T. Oliver; William Niebaus, of
Evansville, Ind., and Thomas Mooney
were drowned in the Monongahela riv

down. Hetzel was rescued.
About 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon
Oliver and Hetzel boarded a skiff at j
the river frontage of the mill and j
started rowing about the river. Near
the Smithfleld street bridge they were |
caught in a swift current and their I
frail little craft was swirled around in
the turbulent waters. Hetzel stood up '
in the boat and cried for help.
The boat continued and finally cap
sized, throwing both men into the wn

Oliver sank almost immediately.
The cries of Hetzel had been heard
by several men on the boathouse of
the Monongahela River Consolidated
Coal and Coke Company's landing, who
threw ropes into the stream, and 'Hetzel
managed to seize one of them. 'He was
pulled to safety.
William Niehaus and Thomas Moon

a hoat and started across the river to
the Tescue. About half way across an
oar lock broke and, after much diffi
culty, they managed to steor their boat.
Their boat, finally caught in the
swirl, capsized, and both men sank be

SAGE TEA TURNS
GRAY HAIR DARK
It's Grandmother's Recipe to Brijig
Color, Lustre and Thickness to Hair
When Faded, Streaked or Gray
That beautiful, even shade of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brewing
a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Your hair is your charm. It makes or
mars the face. When it, fades, turns
gray, streaked and looks dry, wispy
and scraggy, just an application or two
of Sage and Sulphur enhances its ap
pearance a hundredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the tonic; you
can get from any drug store a 50-cent
bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound," ready to use. This can al
ways be depended upon to bring back
the natural color, thickness anil lustre
of your hair and remove dandruff, stop
scalp itching and falling hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's" Sage and
Sulphur because it darkens so naturally
! and evenly that nobody can tell it has
| been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
| this through the hair, taking one small
I strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair has disappeared, and after another
application it becomes beautifully dark
and appears glossy, lustrous and abun
dant.—Adv.
