THE FULTON COUNTY NEWS, McCONNELLSBURO, PA. SYRUP OF FIGS FOR A CHILD'S BOILS It is cruel to force nauseating, harsh physic into a sick child. Look batK at your childhood days. Remember the "dose" mother insisted on castor oil, calomel, cathartics. How you hated then, how you fought against taking them. With our children it's different. Mothers who cling to the old form of physic simply don't realize what they do. The children's revolt Is well-founded. Their tender little "lnsldes" are Injured by them. If your child's stomach, liver and bowels need cleansing, give only dell clous "Callfomlu Syrup of Figs." Its action Is positive, but gentle. Millions of mothers keep this harmless "fruit laxative" handy; they know children love to take It; that It never falls to clean the liver and bowels and sweet en the stomiieh, and that a tenspoonful given today eaves a sick child tomor row. Ask at the store for a GO-cent bottle of "California Syrup of Figs," which has full directions for bnliles, children of all ages and for grown ups plainly ou each bottle. Adv. Forgot His Sweetheart. Doctor IlrundeB, the Ihii!hIi mun of letters, who recently visited this country, tells u curious story of him self, says the Chicago News. At the very moment he hail appointed to keep a tryst with his sweetheart he was deep in Hegel. "With a passionate desire to reach a comprehension of the truth, I grap pled with the 'system,' began with the encyclopedia, rend the three volumes of 'Aesthetics.' the 'Phenomenology of the Mind,' thou the 'Philosophy of Law' sguin, and finally the logic, the natural philosophy and the philosophy of the mind In a veritable Intoxication of comprehension and delight." The lamentable sequel was that he forgot all about the young girl to whom he hnd to say i;ood-by. Students Study Grading of Grain. How the grain markets of the coun try handle and grade the farmers' pro ducts is being studied in a course which was started at the Ohio state university last year. The students taking the course are seniors in the department of agriculture. The students are given lectures on market distribution and study the field crops of the world. In the labor atory they study the grading of grain, testing It as to weight, color, percent age of moisture, quality, soundness and kind. Samples of ear corn and grain are "received from farmers in the Franklin county and from grain exchanges In the primary markets. Cause for Thankfulness. In a Sunday school in a northern town there was one little negro girl In the class. Th teacher asked each little girl to think of something that she should be thankful for. Knch girl told of some special bless ing that was hers. When she came to the little negro she said: "Now, Sa die, what Is your special blessing?" "Dat my face Is black an' I don't have to wash it but once a week," was the reply. Terrier Is a Vegetarian. Mrs. M. II. L. Freshel of lloston, president of the Millennium Guild, an organization w Mch opposes the slaugh ter of animals, hus a Yorkshire terrier that Is a vegetarian. Sister, as the terrier ls( known, according to Mrs Freshel, has never eaten meat. This Is what Sister likes: Lentils, peas, beans, celery, carrots, radishes, let tuce, apples, nuts, eggs, oatmeal and buttered toast. Force of Habit. "Kver since you've been in town," Said the city relation, "you've been go ing to a sotia fountain two or three times a day and ordering lemonade." "Yip." replied Farmer Corutossel "A habit's a habit." "Hut you don't drink the lemonade." "I don't want It. I'm wlllln' to pay the nickel so as t3 get a straw to chew." Washington Star. Explained.

"It's the hardship of the conditions," she said, softly. "Those conditions will chunge." A man hud come out onto the ver anda from the Inside, and was ap proaching the table. He was Immac ulately groomed, and came forward with the deference of approaching a throne, yet as one accustomed to ap proaching thrones. His smile was that of pleased surprise. The mountaineer recognized Far hish, and, with a quick hardening of the face, he recalled their last meeting. If Farbish should presume to renew the acquaintanceship under these clreumstances, Samson meant to rise from his chair, and strike him in .ha face. George Lescott's sister could not be subjected to such meet ings. Yet, It was a tribute to his- ad vancement in good manners that be dreaded making a scene In her pres ence, nnd, as a warning, he met Far bish's pleasant smile with a look of blank und studied lack of recognition. The circumstances out of which Far bish might weave unpleasant gossip did not occur to Samson. That they were together late in the evening, un chaperoned, at a road house whose reputation was socially dubious, was a thing he did not realize. Hut Far bish was keenly alive to the possibil ities of the situation. He chose to construe the Kentucklan's blank ex pression as annoyance at being dis covered, a sentiment he could readily understand. Adrlenne Lescott. follow ing her companion's eyes, looked up, and to ihe boy's astonishment nodded to tho newcomer, and called him by name. "Mr. Farbish," she laughed, with mock confusion and total innocence of the fact that her words might have meaning, "don't tell on us." "1 never tell things, my dear lady," said the newcomer. "1 have dwelt too long In conservatories to toss pebbles. I'm afraid. Mr. South, you have forgotten me. I'm Farbish, and I had the pleasure of meeting you" he paused 'a moment, then with a pointed glance added "at the Man hattan club, was it not?" "It was not," said Samson, prompt ly. Fnrblsh looked his surprise, but was resolved to see no offense, and, after a few moments of affable and. It must be acknowledged, witty con versation, withdrew to his own table. "Where did you meet that man?" demanded Siimson, fiercely, when he and the girl were alone again. "Oil, at any number of dinners and dances. His sort is tolerated for some reason." She paused, then, looking very directly at the Kentuckian, In quired, "And where did you meet him?'' "Didn't you hear hiiu suy the Man hattan club?" "Yes, and I knew that he was ly ing." "Yes, he was!" Samson spoke, con temptuously. "Never mind where it was. It was a place I got out of when found out who were there." The chauffeur came to announce that the car was ready, and they went out. Farbish watched them with a smile that had In it a trace of the sardonic. The career of Farbish had been an Interesting one in Its own peculiar and unadmirable fnshion. With no advan tages of upbringing, he had neverthe less bo cultivated the niceties of social usage that his one Haw was a too great perfection. He was letter-perfect where one to the manor born might have Blurred some detail. . He was witty, handsome In his sat-' urnlne way, and had powerful friends In tho world of fashion and- lli.ance. That he rendered services to his plutocratic patrons, other than the repartee of his dinner talk, was a thing vaguely hinted In club gossip, and that these services were not to his credit had more than once been con jectured. When llorton had begun his cru sade against various abuses, he had cast a suspicious eye on all mutters through which he could trace the trail of William Farbish, and now, when Farbish saw llorton, he eyed him with an enigmatical expression, half-quiz-zlcnl and half-malevolent. After Adrlenne and Samson had dis appeared, lie rejoined bis companion, a stout, middle-aged gentleman of florid complexion, whose cheviot cut away and reposeful waistcoat covered a liberal embonpoint Farbish took his cigar from his Hps, and studied Its ascending smoke through lids half closed and thoughtful. i "Singular," he mused; "very singu lar!" "What's singular?"- impatiently de manded his companion, "Finish, or don't start." "That mountaineer came up here as George Lescott's protege," went on Furbish, reflectively. "He came fresh from the feud belt, and landed promptly In the police court. Now, in less than a year, he's pairing off with Adrlenno Lescott who, every ono supposed, meant to marry Wilfred llorton. This little party tonight Is to put it quite mildly, a bit uncon ventlonal." The stout gentleman said nothing. and the other questioned, musingly: "Hy the way, Bradburn, has the Kenmore Shooting club requested Wll fred llorton's resignation yet?" "Not yet. We are going to. He's not congenial, since his hand Is raised against every man who owns more than two dollars." The speaker owned several million times that sum. This meeting at an out of-the way place had been arranged for the purpose of discussing ways and means of curb lug Wilfred's crusades. "Well, don't do !t." "Why the devil shouldn't we? We don't want anarchists in the Ken more." After awhile, they sat silent, Farbish smiling over the plot he had Just de vised, and tlie other man pulling with a puzzled expression at his cigar. "That's all there Is to it," summar ized Mr. Furbish, succinctly. "If we can get these two men. South and llorton, together down there at the shooting lodge, under the proper condi tions, they'll do the rest themselves, 1 think. I'll take care of South. Now, It's up to you to have llorton there lit the same time." "How do you know these men have i,ot already met and amicably?" de manded Mr. liradburn. "I happen to know It, quite by chance. It 1b my business to know things quite hy chancej" Indian summer came again to Misery, Haunting woodland banners of crimson and scarlet orange, but to Sully the season brought only heart achy remembrances of last autumn, when Samson had softened his stoi cism ns the haze hud softened the hori zon. He hud sent her a few brief let tersnot written, but plainly printed. He selected short words as much like the primer as possible, for no other messages could she read. There were times in plenty when he wished to pour out to her torrents of feeling, and It was such feeling as would have carried comfort to her lonely, little heart. He wished to tell frankly of what a good friend he had made, and how this friendship made him more able to realize that other feeling his love for Sally. There was In his mind no suspicion as yet that these two girls might ever stand In conflict as to the right of-way. But the letters he wished to write were not the sort he 'a red to have read to the girl by the evangelist-doctor or the district school teacher, and alone she could have made nothing of them. However, "I love you" are easy words and those he always Included. The Widow Miller had been ailing for months, and, though the local physician dlaesos'd the cotidition as being "rigiu portly," he knew that the specter of tuberculosis which stalks through these badly lighted and ven tilated houseB was stretching out its lingers to touch her shrunken chest. This had meant that Sally had to fore go the evening hours to 3tudy, be cause of the weariness that followed the day of nursing and household drudgery. Autumn seemed to bring to her mother a slight Improvement, and Sully could again sometimes steal away with her slate and book, to sit alone on the big jowider, and study. She would not be able to write that Christmas letter. There had been too many Interruptions In the self-iui parted education, but some day she would write. There would probubly be time enough. It would take even Sam son a long while 'o become an artist. One day, as she was walking home ward from ber lonely trysting place, she met the battered-looking man who carried medicines in his taddlubags and the Scriptures in his pocket, and who practiced both forms of healing through the hills. The old man drew down his nag, and threw one leg over the poi.i.nel. "Evenin', Sally." he greeted. "Kvenin', Brother Spencer. How air ye?" "Tol'able. thank ye, Sally." The body-nnd-soul mender studied the girl awhile in silence, and then said blunt ly: Ye've done broke right smart, In the last year. Anything the matter with ye?" She shook her head, and laughed. It was an effort to laugh merrily, but the ghost of the old instinctive blitheness rippled into it. "I've Jest come from old Splcer South's," volunteered the doctor. "He's ulln' pretty consid'able, these days." "What's the mutter vlth Cnc" Spl cer?" demanded the girl, in genuine anxiety. Every one along Misery called the old man Unc Splcer. "I can't Jest make out." Her in former spoke slow ly, and his brow cor rugated into something like sullen ness. "He ain't Jest to say sici. Thet is, his organs seems all right, but he don't 'peur to huve no heart fer nothin', and his victuals don't tempt him none. He's Jest puny, thet's all." "I'll go over ihar, an' see him," an nounced the girl. "I'll cook a chicken thet'll tempt him." The girl spent much time after that at the house of old Spicef South, and her coming seemed to waken him Into a lllful return of spirits. "I reckon, Unc' Spicer," suggested the girl, on one of her first visits. "I'd better send fer Samson. Mebby hit mout do ye good ter see hi in." ' The old man was weakly leaning back on his chair, and his jyes were vacantly listless; but, at the sugges tion, he straightened, and the ancient fire came again to his face. "Don't ye do hit," he exclaimed, al most fiercely. "I knows ye mean hit kindly; Sally, but don't ye neddle In my business." "1 I didn't 'low ter meddle." fal tered the girl. "No. little gal." Ilia voice softened at once into gentleness. 'I knows ye didn't. I didn't mean ter be short answered with ye either, but thar's Jest one thing 1 won't low nobody ter do an' tiit's ter send fer Samson. Ho knows the road hoint, an', , when he wants ter come, he'll find the door open, but wo hain't a-goln' ter send attei him." Wilfred llorton found himself that full In the position of a mun whose course lies thrcugh rcplda,. end for the first time in his life his pleasures were giving precedence to business. llorton wus the most-huted and most a mired man in New York, but the men who hated onC snubbed 111 in were bis own sort, and the men who ad mired him were those vhom he would never meet, and who knew him only through the columns of penny papers. Powerful enemies had ceased to laugh, and begun to conspire. He must be silenced! How, was a mooted ques tion. But, In some fashion, he must be silenced. Society had not cast him o'K, but society hud shown him in many subtle ways that he was no longer her favorite. He hud token a plebeian stand with the masses. Mean while, from various sources, Ilcrton had received warnings of actual per sonal danger. But at these he bad laughed, and no hint of them had reached Adrlenne's ears. One evening, when business had forced (lie postponementof a dinner engagement with Miss Lescott, he begged her over Jie telephone to ride with him the following morning. "1 know you are usually uslcep when I'm out and galloping," lie laughed, "but you pitched me neck and crop into this hurly-burly, and I shouldn't have to lose everything. Don't have your horse brought. I want you to try out a new one of mine." "I think," she answered, "that early morning Is the best time to ride. I'll meet you at seven ;it the I'luza en trance." They had turned the upper end of the reservoir before llorton drew hlB mount to a walk, and allowed the reins to bans. They had been galloping hard, and conversation nad been Im practicable.' "1 suppose experience should have taught mo," begun llorton, Blowiy, "that the most asinine thing in tho world is to try to lecture you, Drennle. But there are times when one must even risk your delight at one's dis comllture." "I'm not going to tease you this morning," she answered, docilely. "I like the horse too well and, to bo frank, 1 like you too well!" "Thank you," smiled Horton. "As usual, you disarm me on the verge "Don't You Do Hit." of combat. I had nerved myself for ridicule." "What have I done now?" Inquired the girl, with an Innocence which further disarmed him. "The queeu can do no wrong But even the queen, perhaps more par ticularly the queen, must give thought to what people are saying." "What are people saying?" "The usual unjust things that are said about women in Bociety. You are being constantly seen with an uncouth freak who Is scarcely a gentleman, however much he may be a man. And malicious tongues are wagging." The girl stiffened. "I won't spur with you. I know that you are alluding to Samson South, though the description Is a slander. I never thought It would be necessary to say such a thing to you, Wilfred, but you are talking like a cad." The young man flushed. "I laid myself open to that," he said, slowly, "and 1 suppose 1 should have expected It. God knows I hate cads and snobs. Mr. South is simply, as yet, uncivilized. Otherwise, he would hardly take you, unchaperoned, to well, let us say to ultra-bohemlan re sorts, where you are seen by such gossip-mongers as William Farbish." "So, that's the specific charge, is it?" "Yes, that's the specific charge. Mr. South may be a man of unusual talent and strength. But he has done what no other man has done with you. He has caused club gossip, which may easily be twisted and misconstrued." "Ho you fancy that Samson Smith could have taken mo to the Wigwam road-house if I had not cared to go with him?" The man shook his head. "Certainly not! But the fact that you did care to go with him Indicates an influence over you which is new. You have not sought -the bohemian and unconventional phases of life with your other friendB. There Is no price under heaven I would not pay for your regard None the less. I repeat that, at the present moment, I can see only two definitions for this moun taineer. Either he Is a bounder, or else he is so densely Ignorant and churllBh that he Is unfit to associate with you." "I make no apologies for Mr. South," she said, "because none are needed. He Is a stranger In New York, who knows nothing, and cares nothing about the conventionalities. If I chose to waive them, 1 think it was my right and my responsibility." Horton said nothing, and. In a mo- tnent Adrlenne . Lescott's manner changed. She spoke more gently: "Wilfred, I'm sorry you choose to take this prejudice against the boy. You could have done a grout deal to help him. I wanted you to be friends." ','Thunk you!" His manner was stiff. "I hardly think we'd hit It off together " "1 believe you are Jealous!" she announced. "Of course, I'm Jealous," he replied, without evasion.' "Possibly, I might have saved time In the first plnce by avowing my Jealousy. I hasten now to make amends. I'm green-eyed." She laid her gloved fingers lightly on his bridle hand. "Don't be," she advised; "I'm not In love with him. If 1 were. It wouldn't matter. He has " 'A neater, sweeter maiden, " 'In a greener, cleaner land.' He's told me all about her." Horton shook bis head, dubiously. "I wish to the good Lord, he'd go back to her," be said. CHAPTER XI. One afternoon, swinging olong Fifth avenue In his down-town walk. Sam son met Mr. Farbish, who fell Into step with him, and began to make conversation. "By the way, South," he suggested after the commonplaces hud been dis posed of, "you'll pardon my little pre varication the other evening about having met you at the Manhattan club?" "Why was It necessury?" Inquired Siimson, with a glance of disquieting directness. "Possibly, It was not necessary, merely politic. Of course," he laughed, "every man knows two kinds of women. It's Just as well not to dis cuss the nectarines' with tho orchids, or the orchids with the nectarines." Samson made no response. But Farbish, meeting his eyes, felt as though he had been contemptuously rubtiked. His own eyes clouded with an Impulse of resentment. But It passed, as he remembered that his plans Involved the necessity of win ning this boy's confidence. At the steps of a Fifth avenue club. Farbish halted. "Won't you turn In here," he sug gested, "and assuage your thirst?" Samson declined, and walked on. But when, a day or two later, he dropped Into the snme club with George Lescott, Farbish Joined them In the grill without Invitation. "By the way, Lescott." said the interloper, with an easy assurance upon which the coolness of his re ception had no seeming effect, "It won't be long now until-ducks are flying south. Will you get off for your customary shooting?" "I'm afraid not." lescott's voice be came moro cordial, as a man's will, whose hobby has been touched. "There are several cunvuses to be finished for approaching exhibitions. I wish I could go. When the first cold winds begin to sweep down, I get the fever The prospects are good, too, I under stand." "The best In years! Protection In the Canadian breeding fields Is bear ing fruit. Do you shoot ducks, Mr South?" The speaker included Sam son as though merely out of deference to his physical presence. Samson shook his head. But be was listening eagerly. He too, knew that note of the migratory "honk" from high overhead. "Samson," said Lescott slowly, as he caught the gleam in his friend's eyes, "you've been working too hard. You'll have to take a week off, and try your hand. After you've changed your method trom rlflu to shotgun, you'll bug your share, and you'll come back litter for work. 1 must arrange It." "As to that," suggested Farbish. In the manner of one regarding the civilities, "Mr. South can run down to the Kenmore. I'll have a card made out for him." "Don't trouble," demurred Lescott, coolly, "I can fix that up." "It would be a pleasure," sm!ld the other. "1 sincerely wish I could bo thero at the Bume time, but I'm afraid that, like you, Lesco'.t, I 6hall have to give business the right of way. However, when 1 hear thbt (he flights are beginning, I'll call Mr. South up, and pass the aews to li'm " Samson hnd thought it rather sin0ii- 9 LESS HOSTILE TO FOREIGNERS Lives of European Explorer in Tibet Comparatively Safe Work it ' Going On. Tibet continues to hold Its special fascination for explorers, and it Is therefore Interesting to leurn from the experiences of Captains Bailey nnd Moreshead, who recently cleared up the long standing mystery concern ing tlie connection between the Tseng po and Brahmaputra rivers, that a noticeable change has come about In the attitude of the Tibetans toward foreigners. These explorers encoun tered no signs of hostility or distrust, except when they were mistaken for Chinese, who appear to be held In great dread. No objections were made to the surveying operations, and Capt. Morshead asserts that "it is now pos sible to traverse the country from end to end, openly, with plane-table and theodolite, and without even the for mnllty of a pass from Lhasa." Ap parently the Tibetans have learned that the British are their best pro tectors from Chinese aggreslon. Apro pos of the Tsangpo-Brnhmaputra, the current number of Petermann's Mit tellungen announces that the Austrian explorer, A. K. Gebauer, who is now traveling north' from Burma along the Chinese-Tibetan border. Intends ulti mately to strike west to the Tsangpo and follow this river through Jhe passes of the Himalaya.

The enthusiasm with which he attacked his dally schedule carried him fur, and made his progress phenomenal, but he was spending capital of nerve and health, and George Lescott began to fear a break-down for Ins protege. He llscussed th. matter with Adrlenne, and the girl began to promote In the boy an inter est In the duck-shooting trip an In terest which had already awakened despite the rifleman's Inherent con tempt for shotguns. "I reckon I'd like It. all right." he said, "and I'll bring buck some ducks ir I'm lucky." So, Lescott arranged the outfit, and Sumson awaited the news of the com Ing flights. That tamo evening. Furbish dropped Into the studio, explaining that he had been buying a picture nt Colliisso's and had taken f i rn-ortiinlty to stop by und hand S.iii.sun a vi. Mor s card to the Kenmore club He found the ground of interest fallow, und urUully sowed It with well chosen anecdotes calculated to stimulate enthusiasm. On leaving the studio, he paused to say: "I'll let you know when conditions are Just right." Then, he added, as though In afterthought: "And I'll ar range so that you won't run up ou Wilfred Horton." "What's the matter with Wilfred Horton?" demanded Sumson, a shade curtly "Nothing at nil," replied Farbish. with entire gravity. "Personally, I like llorton Immensely. I simply thought you might llnd things more congenial when he wasn't among those present." Samson was puzzled, but he did not fancy hearing from this man's lips criticisms upon friends of his friends. "Well, I reckon," he said, coolly. "I'd like him. too.' "I beg your pardon," said the other. "I suppose you knew, or I shouldn't have mentioned the subject. I seem to have said too much." "See here, Mr. Furbish," Sumson spoke quietly, but Imperatively; "if you know any reason why I shouldn't "I Will Arrange So That You Will Not Run Up on Wilfred Horton." meet Mr. Wilfred Horton, I want you to tell me what It Is. He Is a friend of my friends. You say you've said too much. 1 reckon you've cither said too much, or too little." Then, veiy insidiously and artistical ly, seeming all the while reluctant and apologetic, the visitor proceeded to plant In Samson's mind an exagger ated and untrue picture of llorton's contempt for him and of llorton's re sentment at the favor shown hint by the Lcscotts. Samson heard him out with a face enigmatically set, and his voice was soft, as he said simply at the end: "I'm obliged to you." tTO BIS COXTINUEIM 'VUTI ;"- v y WAR WILL HELP POTTERIES American Industry Bound to Benefit by Changes in the Commerce of the World. The American demand for several minor mineral products will be stimu lated hy the changes in trade with Eu rope, with the result of Increasing materially the production for 1914 and following years, says a bulletin of tlie United Stiites Geological Survey. In the case of pottery this movement to ward a stronger hold of the domettl!? market Is already well under way. Tho production In 191:1 was the larg est In the history of the Industry. The underlying cause of this prosperity Is no doubt the improvement In the character of the American product in texture, finish, color, decoration, and the prevention of crazing, the higher grades of American pottery equaling if not surpassing some of the best Im ported ware. For many years tlie valuo of the Imported pottery exceed ed the value of that made at home, but about the dose of the nineteenth century domestic production caught up with Imports, and since' that time it has greatly exceeded them, the pro duction In 1913 being nearly four times as great In value as the Im ports. There was, however, last year a considerable decrease In exports of pottery, a record which should now be reversed by reason of the changes In the world's commerce that have become Inevitable.
