The power involved ip a typical summer thunderstorm would provide, electricity for a year in over a million nojiseholds, if it could be placed under leash, while the energy released by a' hurricane is thousands of times as great as that generated by an atomic bomb. ( \ The theory that atomic explosions have capshd vast Dneteorologicaj changes lj a s no weight. The enetgy ■ released by 100 atomic bombs would be small in comparison with the forces released by nature in a single storm over the Atlantic sdaboard.

ing the. diagnosis. As a part of the . treatment, .it is alSo important that other related disorders, such as bowel disturbances and inYectinns receive the proper cajre.

Answer.: The character of tht skin /varies in different individ uals. In some persons, the’skin iAIX- while in others it is moist which seems to depend, somewhat on the amount of secretion from the fat glands in the skint. Disturbances in the glands ofj internal secretion, such as lack of thyroid secretion, mhy be contributing causes. However in these instances, symptoms, such; as dry ncss and thickness, of the hair, lack 1 of energy, and excessive gain in weigh! will be noted. .Io c ases w here the skin is naturally dry. there does' not seem .Io be much that be done out side of applying a igland ointment, such as cold cream, toi the skin once a day. .

SYNOPSIS Impending war 11812). Rnoda. nia matleious wire, ma Tory Brother. Alex, me unexpected visit ot ms winsome young niece. Jennet, combine to complicate Quint Darby's lite as ne pioneers on the Niagara border, across from Canada. The loss ot bis arm la another handicap. He dreams or building merchant mips. He fears for Jennet's safety nere, >s greatly alarmed when ane openly and ardently admires a handsome half-breea Indian, named Peter Brant. But more and more Quint finds himself turning for escape to thia lovely girt. Spies are infesting the country, and Darby's eccentric lodger, one Pettlptece. falls under suspicion. The frontier wonders on which side the Mohawk Indians will fight, U war actually strikes. CHAPTER ELEVEN CYRUS CATON came to the table, stood over Quint. "We know whei-e the Mohawks will fight, come war. They hate us! And who can say the Senecas may not be persuaded to join them ? That this young walkabout may not be with them now, persuading them? What’ll happen to us if we have the one tribe at our faces and the other at our backs? Care to think on that. Darby!” He gaggled a finger in Quint’s face. “I'm told you know something about it." \ “The Mohawks and our Seneca neighbors are a more civilized people than those western tribes. They’ve gone further than we in education. ...” “Education! Pah! They've the same savage blood and they’ve their grudges. If it is pointed out to them that they can reclaim the lands they lost—and if enough whiskey is toted in to them—the younger chiefs won’t listen to old Red Jacket or Cornplanter. And I understand the young Mohawk is glib ot tongue.” ’T will stake everything I possess on the boy’s loyalty to his mother’s people!” “So?" Cyrils Caton gave a long glance over the room ’’You’re very well set up here, Darby. It’d be a pity to risk such a commodious place.” He brought his glance back to Quint. "There’s another matter ot which I must spealf—it’s known that your brother crossed the river a day or so ago—-what \ business took him Into Canada?" Quint closed his lips on an impulse to tell thib man that his brother’s business was his own affair. And while he hesitated Jennet came to the door. there, ip some confusion. “Oh, Tm most sorry I intruded! I needed more *thread—l did not know anyone was here!” Cyrus Caton was regarding her with an astonished curiosity. Evidently, thought Quint, word of,her had not yet reached his ears. ! “This is Mr. Cyrus Caton, of the Buffalo village, Jennet. ’’ Quint turned to the other man. “My brother has left his daughter yvith us until he finds residence to his hking in the village of Newark. He has tired of business and plans to live the rest of his life in leisure and he has been told Newark offers such. His son is with him and Miss Jennet will join him in a few weeks ” Then, to Jennet, “Get your i thread, cLxld.”

Jennet went to a cnest in a hbr thread from it and ran from the room. “A most winsome young lady,” observed Caton. Then, with a meaning smile, he added, “But isn’t it a liftle odd \ that your brother shouldbe willing to expose hes to our rougher ways of living, even for the few weeks of which you speak!" Quint yearned to slap the smile off his face. But he controlled himself, even hi& voice. “Odd—when I am of close kin of her? And, now if you’ve finished, 1 suggest we go to the taproom and enjoy some refreshment.” “Another time. I’ve others: to talk to. 1 can report back that you will serve on our committee? ;lt’s one thing you can do, Darby." The man’s eyes rested Just tor an instant on Quint’s’empty sleeve. . “You may tell your committee that 1 am as loyal a citizen of this country as the rest of you and rtjady to- serve it—to the best of my ability. But it’ll be in my own way. Goodnight, sir.” With, a scarcely audible goodnight in answer. Caton went out through the door. Quint saw his face red with anger. They’d parted enemies, he kiiew. He dropped : down heavily , into his chair, leaned his head in' his hand. War? With every fibre in him he rejected the thought. The democracy was too young, too Unready, to take up arms again against'the English. If the common men, the length and breadth of the land, shouted no to it, wouldn’t those parlor statesmen in Washington listen? , ' There was a light step behind him. Jennet touched his shoulder. “Uncle : Quint .. ” Her voice was' lovp and troubled, “I had to come back—your face when I stpod in the door—and why was that man asking about my father’s business?” ’ He would not tell her the real reason. “Curiosity, my dear. No one comes to the frontier with the display that attended your father without , . . ” ' \ | Jennet broke in, impatiently, "You > are making that up, Uncle Quint!., It was tnore thkn curiosity. Do youknow why my father sold everything and chose to go to live in Canada?” "I am not in your father’s confidence „ " began Quipt, speaking carefully. Then he looked; up at her. j “Do you, Jenhet—do you know?" F She spook her head. “But 1 don’t believe it is to live in quiet leisure. I haven’t believed it from the first.
