It Is probably quite natural that there should be considerable rivalry at Ft. Harrison between the student officers of National Guard training and those with no previous military expe rience, and sometimes stories are told which might not be told if it were not for tills rivalry, says the Indianapolis News. A young student oflicor was putting a squad of fellow-students through squad formations the other day of a rather intricate nature and the proCess proved to be like climbing a roof. It Is easy to climb Into a perilous position astride the cone, but difficult to climb down to safety. The young stu dent officer got along very well until he attempted to get his squad back in to its original formation. Somehow It wouldn't work out right.

Recompense (Copyright, by W. G. Chapman.) It was a seed sowed in receptive and fertile soil, that nugget of a dark sus picion Instilled by a chronic gosstper within the mind of Mrs. Gordon Hall. "Isn't It awful what deceivers the men are? Ohl I'm not mistaken about Mr. Winters. You see, ray sister who lives in tho city, spent a week here last summer and met Mr. Winters a score of times." "And she wrote you that she saw him in the city under suspicious circumstances?" 'Twice," pronounced the spinster gossip with zest, as though rolling an appetizing morsel under her tongue. "First, two months agoshe positively saw him going into a notorious gam bling place. A month later he was coming out of a common saloon." "Dearl dear! what hidden wicked ness ot the worm I" murmured Mrs. Hall. "What you say tallies with tho visits of Mr. Winters to the city. The llrm ho is with hero as a bookkeeper sends him there regularly once n month. What would, his wife say to all this? I won't tell her, for it would break her heart." But Mrs. Hall did toll Mrs. Wintors. She was a shallow, frivolous piece of femininity, slipshod about her housekeeping and a virago and a scold on occasions, as likewise idle, ignorant and a gossip. She did not like Mrs. Winters any too well, either, for tho latter was all that sho was not and tho vivid contrast nettled her. As to her husband, she mado him a poor wife. Sho was always parading her rich relatives beforo him and nagging him to provide for her more liberally than he could afford. Unconsciously sho was making herself a sort of terror to him aud driving him to Involve himself deeply to cater to her extravagant notions. It was the next day that sho called upon pretty, peaceful, happy Mrs. Win ters. By degrees she drew nearer and She Was Horrified as Them. She Scanned nearer to the climax of revelations, like a wily cat pouncing upon a poor, unsuspecting canary bird. "I don't want to distress you, dear," she said in her smooth, sinuous way, "but Mr. Winters is on his regular trip to the city?" "Why, yes. You are not bringing me any bad news, are you?" fluttered Mabel apprehensively. "Oh, nothing now, just general," repiled Mrs. Hall and then she repeated what her associate scandal monger had imparted to her. Arnold visit a gambling house ! Arnold go into a saloon !" gasped Mabel. "Oh, Mrs. Hall, that is a vile slander !" "I hope so. for your sake, dear," purred Mrs. Hall speciously, "but I got the information from a very reliable source." "I'll not believe it!" cried Mabel. "Why, Arnold does not know the taste of liquor, nor ever knew one card from another. Oh. if it were true!" "Do as I do," advised Mrs. Hall practically. "I keep Gordon, my husband, tightly under my thumb. When he goes to the city to make his weekly returns to the house of his trips, I make sure ho isn't gallivanting about the country somewhere else." "I trust you will not repeat your information,' spoke Mabel with dignity, but there was an aching sense of sorrow aud dread at her heart. She wept and fretted. A score of times the sinister impulse was imparted to her reason to watch her husband, to have others watch him. Thou she abandoned the suggestion as utterly, unworthy of a true and loving wife. When he returned home the next day she had locked her secret closely within her soul and was kinder and more caressing than ever. She was glad as the days wore on that she had not repeated the story Mrs. Hall had revealed to her to Arnold. Then, the very day he again went to the city Mabel made a discov ery that utterly crushed her and gave

glaring color to the insinuations of Mrs. Hall. For chancing to mend a coat he had worn, some papers fell out. She was horrified as she scanned them. One was a receipted bill for a wine supper nearly fifty dollars. And there was a memorandum "I. O. U." card game, seventy-five dollars." She was so worried that she slept none at all that night. She was tormented with haunting mental pictures of rioting, revelry and extravagance in the city. She recalled that Arnold had allowed several household bills to become overdue, which was not his usual wont. She could scarcely resist the impulse to go to the city and find him. Mr. Hall passed her on the street next morning. He looked pale and worried. "Do you expect Mr. Winters home today?" he inquired. "Yes," replied Mabel, "he will be here by evening." "Please tell him I wish to see him particularly, will you?" pressed Älr. Hall, very anxiously, Mabel thought. She did not allow her husband to detect any hint of tho suffering she was enduring when he returned. Arnold was in fine spirits. He seemed to be secretly pleased at something he did not tell her about. She repeated the message Mr. Hall had left. "Oh, yes," spoke Arnold, "I must see' him, indeed. I will be back in an hour, dear." Ho sauntered down the gravel path leading from the house to the street and Mabel stood alone, debating with an Irresistible Impulse. It was to follow him. This she did. "It is unwomanly, but I can't help It!" she whispered desperately to herself. "There Is some mystery about his going to see Mr. Hall. I am going to find out what it is." Mabel was surer than over that she was on the right track as sho followed her unsuspecting husband at a distance. He passed the Hall home, but did not enter it. Instead, he whistled loudly a peculiar tunc, proceeded to whoro a vacant lot held some high shrubbery and waited there. In a few moments Mr. Hall appeared. The two wore Instantly engaged in a rapid colloquy, some papers passed between them. Mabel crept closer up to them. "And now, Hall," she heard her husband say, "I've paid off those wretched gambling debts of yours and havo cleared up the situation. I couldn't very well spare the money, but If you will keep away from those allurements in the future I shall feel well repaid, for I value you as an old friend." Enlightened, relieved, but fairly shamed, Mabel hurried back home. Never did she tell her husband of lies discoveries, only she Loved him, trusted him more than over. Two years went by, a fortune had been left to Mrs. Hall by one of those wealthy relatives she had so often boasted of. She and her husband moved to another town. There came a period of pinching
i economy, almost distress to the Win ters family after that. The firm for which Arnold worked went out of business. He was compelled to take a minor position. It was while affairs were at their worst that one evening they received an unexpected visit from Mr. Hall. He brought great news. "Winters," he said exuberantly, "my wife's uncle has left her a business that requires brains to manage. I am looking for an expert accountant at five thousand dollars a year. Pack up and come, for you are the man I want" And then Mabel knew the wayward, but true-hearted friend of her husband had not forgotten the kindly deed of the past. Curious Siberian Jewsl Box. A curious jewel box made of fossil ivory by the natives of Siberia is on exhibition at the Museum of Natural History in New York. The sides and top are composed of flat pieces of ivory and are carefully fitted together, the corners being dovetailed. They have carved in them scenes of the northland, the front side representing a hunter returning from the chase riding a reindeer. The box is made from the tusks of mammoths that have t)een buried for ages beneath the ice in Siberia, says the Christian Herald. Some of these tusks weigh from 200 to 300 pounds. Elephants' tusks furnished the ivory for the Jews. Solomon made his throne of it. . Odd Wedding Custom. An odd wedding custom prevails among the Santals, a tribe in India, by which, after an agreement has been reached between the parents, who usually do the bargaining, the youth's friends, after a short interval, visit the girl and give her a piece of cloth as a sign of betrothal. The money is then paid. This is called "the binding down of the thatch" and a date for the wedding is fixed. The next step is for each party to tie a knot in a string for each day that is to intervene before the wedding day. Then the parties separate ; day by day a knot is untied, and when the end of the string is reached the real knot is tied that makes the couple one. Very Obliging.

Quit Hippy. Through the wild way of her good-for-nothing husband, a hard-working charwoman had to remove to a little two-roomed cottage, where there was scarcely space to sneeze without shaking the ornaments from the mantelpiece. "It's hard lines for you to be brought down like this, after what you've been accustomed to," said a sympathetic neighbor. "I don't doubt you feel very miserable, Mrs. Jones." "No, I don't," the charwoman stoutly denied. "I'm happier hero by a long way than I used to be In the old place. For one thing, when my husband comes home in a brute of a temper, he can't throw me down the cellar steps, as he used to, 'cos there ain't none now!" Pearson's Weekly.

That proves that this 25.9 miles per gallon of gasoline is the ordinary, the average performance of 234 Saxon "Sixes" taken right out of stock. And it proves as nothing else would prove, the gasoline economy your Saxon "Six" will give you. No other car in its cfass can match this record. Furthermore, these 234 Saxon "Sixes" averaged 175 miles per quart of oil. And not a single instance of mechanical trouble occurred throughout the entire 70,200 miles. There is the proof that Saxon "Six" is yoar kind of a car. Price f. o. b. Detroit, $935.
