The Skeleton in His Closet

The soul-racking tale poured into the ears of little Ethel Murray could result only in one thing—a missive promptly penned to the profligate Emery Jarvis, assuring him that she had learned all, and asking to be released from ‘t»{;ue engagement. ; “I know of the skeleton in your closet, wrote Ethel (here she applied a ddinty bit of cambric to streaming eves ordinarily as sunshiny and blue as the sky of a June mo‘rn_lng).L“l am surprlsed at you! Had you come to me and told me all, I feel that I could have forgiven you—but never, now that I find {he truth thtoug()}\ other people. 1 rg’tur'n herewith your ring.”

The rest of the letter was/ a rambling plaint, save on one subject—the engagement existing between these two must be considered past history. That was plain. For more than a year the danghter of Burgess Murray, the biggest man pomi(";‘x!ly in the community, and Emery Jarvis, a clerk in Gisson's drug gtore, had beén; making plans for a future that would embrace them both. Jarvis was an ambitious young fellow, well liked by every one, and seeming{lv having the best of habits. i ' - Ethel had believed in him thoroughly, until the gossiping tongue of old Mrs. Pollet ' had disclosed -certain :.- ~ " 2 = .. o] ’ 2 t i I{ 1 i4' 1 * = ' o ej:.--‘/:'.a y (. .

things that no girl of spirit could tol-erate-in her fiance. Therefore the return of the handsome solitaire that she had so proudly worn and the letter to her betrothed asking for her Telease. . Jarvis read the Ilines in the seclusjon of the little prescription room in the rear of the drug shop and his dark eyes clouded as -he valnly strove to solve the cause of the maiden’s anger. “She couldn’t be cross about a little thing like this,” he ruminated. “I wonder how she found it out, anyway?” That evening Jarvis called- up the girl. She was not at home. During the ensuing week he made several other fruitless attempts to see her. It was after this that the ire of the youth assumed significant proportions.

“My dear Ethel,” wrote Jarvis, “I know, and yoeu have not been at home. Patience has ceased to be the proverbial virtue, and I shall not try to see you again. I am dome. I release you from the engagement, as you ask. I also' acknowledge the skeleton in my closet, but why a normal-minded maid should ‘take this amiss is beyond me. If anything, my dear, I am rather proud of it . " Ethel positively stormed when she read this communication. She clinched her fists until the nails bit cruelly into the tender flesh and angrily tossed her little blonde head.

FASHIONS IN WEST AFRICA

Natives Used the Telegraph Wires for ~ .Necklaces and the White China ¢ Insulators for Earrings.

The aesthetic and ‘decorative uses to which barbarians will turn objects which, to civilized races are things of the humblest utility are amusingly illustrated by this “fashion note” from West Africa:

For some time the officials of the German colony 1n Southwest Africa noticed that the .telephone wires and other accessories of the electrical plant disappeared as by magic immediately after they had been put up. The most diligent inquiries remained fruitless. » ; :

From other parts of the German predilections for articles of strange predilections for articles of German commerce, as, for example, rubber neels, garters, buckles, and so forth, things which tue natives of those countries do not generally use. " The governor of the colony gave an entertainment one year in honor of

more to do with men,” she complained bitterly. “The very brazenness of that Emery Jarvis--to say that a ‘normalminded’ girl sHouldn’t take such things amiss. I'm sure no girl with common sense would allow her fiance to act in that scandalous manner. Anyway, I'm glad it's. all over.” To prove this, Ethel burst into convulsive sobs and hid a flushed and tear-wet face in a convenient pillow. S

Weeks passed, but the two erstwhile lovers seemed hopelessly estranged. Ethel_(made no attempt to salve the wound caused by her letter, nor did Jarvis try to explain away the misunderstanding. : Gradually the gossips in the little

town—and there were many—grew accustomed. to the new order of things, and ‘everyhody ceased to interest themselves in the affairs of the young couple. It was a month after this that old Pollit (he was a portly butcher, owning the meat shop next to.the drug emporium) ventured to incorporate something of a remark that caught the youth’s puzzled interest. “What was that?” demanded Jarvis, ears metaphorically a-cock. *“Just repeat that last sentence.” “l saia,” came from the butcher, “that that there book I've been reading—Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde'—reminds me of your doings.” He poked a pudgy forefinger playfully into the ribs of the youth. . 1

“You'll have to be more explicit.,” snapped the drug clerk:.. “l can’t understand. What are you driving at?”

“Can’t understand, eh?” commented the other, sourly. He was angry at the tone of the lad. *“Well, I' guess I can put it plainer, all right. [ mean that you tried to play double just like that. Jekyll-Hyde feller did. Every evening after you called on the girl you was engaged to, yvou went straight to the house of old Doc. Blyly to see his daughter. My wife she seen you do it time and again, she did.” The dull red stained the face of the angry butcher. “She’s the one that put a crimp in ¥ou, too. Ethel Murray is too fine a girl to be galavanting. around with a young fellow that she thinks thinks a heap of her, and all the while he don’t, but is making her out a fiool by sneaking away from her house to call on another girl.”

“So It was your wife that caused this trouble between Ethel and me. was it? Pity she can’'t learn to attend to her own affairs, isn't it?”

The butcher, his mind relieved, stamped heavily out of the drug store, but he left a knowing youth behind him. Mrs. Pollit was a gossip monger of some notoriety in the community. She resided just opposite the Blyly home, and now that the i ate meat man had given him his cue, Jarvis could understand many things. - That evening, his heavy jaws set firinly and his broad shoulders thrown deflantly back, the drug clerk mounted the steps to the Murray home and rang the bell. ; Ethel answered the summons. An angry flush dotted her cheeks when she saw who her visitor was, but Emory fgnored these trouble signs, and pushed by her and into the familiar parlor. . .

~ “I am here to explain,” began Jarvis. “Mrs. Pollet’s loquacious husband has just told things, and I think I understand.”

“I don’t care for explanation,” in. terrupted little Miss Murray formally.

“Nevertheless,” persisted Jarvis, patlently, “you are about to receive them. “Listen, dear, I have never called on Millie Blyly in my life—let alone after I left here. When _you referred to tlte skeleton in my closet, I took the phrase literally. There is a skeleton in my closet—a six-foot skeleton of a man that Dr. Blyly loaned me to ald me in my studies, because—well, I'm studying medicine with him, you see. I don’t want to be a drug clerk all my life. I—" But here his late flancee, face asmile, interrupted his sentence in a very pleasing way, ; :

the emperor’s birthday, and invited the chiefs of the different tribes to it. What was his surprise when he saw these native gentlemen appear with his stolen telegraph wire twisted round their illustrious necks. The higher the dignity the more rings of the wire were round the neck. Inquiries were soon started in the outlying villages and it same to light that the white china insulators of the telegraph poles had become earrings. A young lady of the highest distinction in native society wore a rubber heel hanging from her nose, and a young man who was a well-known dandy wore dangling from his ears a pair of beautiful pink silk garters.

Northwestern Recelved Severe Set- .+ back When Left Half-Back Re- . ceived Serious Injury.

Northwestern received a severe setback when Captain Manley was put out of the game for the rest of the season through an injury sustained in the contest with the Maroons. His leg was so badly swollen for a time that he was unable to leave his bed. Coaeh Hammett feels that he made a serfous mistake when he allowed Captain Manley to re-enter the game after he had once been taken out, as

YOUNG CORBETT IS WHIPPED

Pige pmaes . Willie Beecher Stops Former Champion in Fourth Round of One-Sided Match at New York. Willle Beecher, a young fighter with a sledge-hammer blow in either of his fists, whipped a little fat man called Young Corbett, once the champlon lightweight of the world, at the Longacre Athletic association in New York the other night. The bout was mercifully stopped by Mike Newman, the third man in the ring, in the middle of the fourth round, after Corbett had been twice knocked down. Newman, fearful of a coroner’s inquest, acted as a shield while Corbett, in a befuddled condition, was reeling around the ring blindly seeking his opponent, and Beecher was ramming a serles of upper cuts and hooks to the face, seeking for one that would yield the knockout. While the fighters were in this plight Newman pushed Beecher to his corner and helped Cor bett to his chair.

Heine Schoelkoft is assisting in coaching the Cornell varsity back field. By the way, is there any diminution in the number of flying tackles used? The loss of Earl Pickering is causing considerable worry in the Gopher camp. v

Officials appear to be slower than coaches and players in grasping. the new rules. -

. Isn’t it lucky there’s no such thing as a national commission for football? But then there is the rules committee. Some day when we have lots of time and space we will try to compare football teams by scores; not until then.

" Football players complain of their troubles with the new rules. Still they don’t have to read explanations of them in the papers.

In view of this season’s happenings, it doesn’t seem as if it were all Fred Speik’s fault that Purdue did not have a winning team last year. Michigan football players are sald to mar their fast team work by wrangling over the plays to be used. Too many orators; says Yost. The new football rules don’t seem to have affected the length and breadth of the list of killed and injured to any great extent.

Deming and Vansinderen, two of Yale’s first string of backs, have been dropped back to the scrubs on account of their, poor performances. A former football coach says the game will never be a success until the rules of the American college and English Rugby games are combined. Football experts the west over are agreed that the fault’ of the Maroon team lies in the forwards. The linemen arg said to be exceptionally weak. . Tomparison of baseball and football ticket scalping doesn’t look so bad for the diamond game when it is learned that a ticket to the Yale-Har-vard game sold for $5O. » :

It used to be quite the thing to wager ‘a team would not score, but with the forward pass and the rest of the open game the man who makes such a bet now is regarded as a sucker. : 3

An eminent statistician asserts that 99 per cent. of the Injuries suffered in football this yeaer are confined to the arms and legs of players, one per cent. being of a serious and lasting nature.

40W JOHN KLING GOT START Catcher of Chicago Cubs Says It Was . Partly His Own Fault and Partly Bad Luck. ; BY JOHN KLING. {Copyright, 1916, by Joseph B. Bowles.) How did I get my start? Well, {if the young fellows who want to be come professional players have! as much trouble getting started as [ did the crop will be short. 1 think it was partly my own. fault and partly bad luck that I had so much trouble, and the greater part of my fault was that I neither knew my position nor knew the game well enough. Perhaps | had been spoiled by too much success as a sesui-profesional player before 1 tried to get into professional baseball. Also I had learned wrong in *many thing: and wanted to play my way instead of playing the way the managers and the experienced players did. It took me a long time to discover that perhaps they knew more about it in the organized leagues than we did in the amateur ranks. 5 I don’t remember the time I did not play ball. 1 began about the time I started to school. ! .d¥covered when I went to work that baseball helped me a lot. I got a job, and. was advanced faster and ' given better chances than the fellows who did not play, so I realized baseball was valuable as a side line. A

as a pitcher. I was scared sick, being very young, but I got a job at Rockford, 111.,, and they fired me before I had my shoes broken in. That sent me back to the semi-pro field. We happened to need a catcher, and being the captain I 'made myself catcher, because we needed one, not because 1-was good. : It wasn't long until they told me I was too good a catcher to stay around Kansas City. 1 took their word for it and went to the Texas league. The only reason I quit there was because the team refused to pay me. 1 returned to the Schmeltzers again, and dfter a time signed with St. Joseph as a catcher. I had learned a lot, and the biggest thing I had learned was to keep cool and never lose my temper. I believe a catcher who can keep cool can outthink anyone who lets either temper or excitement get away with him. The catcher need not be brainfer, but if he keeps thinking all the time he will out-think the fellow who loses his head part of the time. I noticed also that even the appearance of coolness and steadiness on the part of the catcher helps the pitcher and helps the infield. So even when I lost my head I tried to appear perfectly cool. After a time it became habit and part of the job. :

When I learned that I think I really was getting my start. I was at St. Joe only a short time. when Chicago got me and brought me to the West Side team. There, with Chance and with smart pitchers, I got started right.

UNIQUE DECISIONS IN GOLF

St. Andrews Body Rules Ball Must Be Played on Where It Lays—--3 Query and Answer.

Local golfers are having a few chuckles over a decision recently made by the rules committee of the St. Andrews body sthat sets itself up as the oracle of golf rulings. In brief, if your ball lands in the turned-up portion of your trousers or in the rim of your hat, you must play it as it lies, says the Chicago Evening Post. But if the ball were to fall into the caddy bag when you endeavored to drop it on the fair green, you may take it out and redrop it! The St. Andrews decision, together with the query about a dropped ball going into play, that prompted the Scotch club to make the ruling, follows: : q

Huntley Hill Golf Club—(l) Pursuant to a local rule. A lifted his ball dropping it over his shoulder; the ball fell into his golf bag, which was swung over his shoulder. Was A entitled to redrop without penalty, or should he have played the ball from out of the bag, or given up the hole? Some contend that the ball “should be treated as lodging in anything noving” rule 17).. (2) Is there any difference in principle between a “ball played into the turnedup part of the trousers which the player is wearing” and a “ball dropping into a golf bag which the player is carrying?”

Answer—A was entitled to redrop the ball without penalty. The: player, his caddie and his clubs cannot be held to come under rule 17. * (2) The difference between the cases mentioned, is that, in the first case, the ball is in play, and in the second case, the ball is not in play until dropped.

Judas hasdi betrayed his Master with ! a kiss, agd the great mingled company { of rulers, Romans, offrers. and sol- | diers with lanterns ard swords :mdi staves., were Lbe,f:innin_sz their home- | ward march to the eity. i Peter immecdiately alone. ' single | handed, drew his sivord anl ‘efieca the | whole Roman and Jewish 'r-(.nvers. Ha | In his imretucus, loving, couragec 18 way, began to spow that he would live up to bhis promise that he would 1"1 for Jesus before be would desert him. | Attacning the nearest one. who may | have been officious in the taking of | Jesus, a servant of the bigh priest, Malchus by name, Peter struck wi!dlvé and missing his mark cut off mer 1y: the ear of bhis eremy. Jesus imme- | dlately stopred "him. For i: was un- | necessary, since Jesus could have at:f any time tweolve lezicns of angel de- | fenders. Perer's defense was contrary | to the_teaohings and plans of Jr‘sus.; It was useless, for Peter could not | overthrow by the swor! the Roman power. It was the worst thing he | could do for his Master; it would ruin | his cause and his defense, for it placed | him in the attitude of a rebel a;'ninsti the Roman government, and Pilate | could not have pronounced him inno- | cent, for it would give color to the | charges of the Pharisees that Jesus ! was an enemy of Caesar, and a rebol | against the Roman government. Peter | might have been arrested for rebel | lion, and perhaps the other disoinlesi with him, and their work of founding | the kingdom have been hindered. | Jesus remedies the evil by miracu | lously healing the wound. This Heal | ing showed that Jesvs was no rebe!| against the Roman power. It showed | the nature of his kingdom, as the king | dom of peace and truth and love. [t showed his own character and howi he lived up to his own precepts. It showed his divine nature and power i It is recorded only bv the physi | cian, Luke, (22:51) “Thus,” says | Tholuck, “the last act of those hands | before they were bound was a work | of mercy and of peace in healirg that slight wound, the only one ever in.-' flicted for his sake.” ) |

The trial before the Sanhedrin was illegai according to all the above tests, It was beld in the night. “It was a packed fury. a star chamber of self. appointed assessors.” The object of the enemies of Jesus was to condemn him and to give him- over to the Roman authcrities for crucifixion before his friends could rally and inter pose in his behalf. Socught false witness aga‘i.nst Jesus,- for it was impossible to condemn him by any true accusations. To put him to death. This they had determined for reascns of their own. What they wanted wag some plausible pretext that would enable them to persuade the Romin authorities to put Jesus to death. Jesus held his peace. They would not accept a denial, and they would have perverte! tpe xreanmg cf any explanaticn he could maKe. e re fused to *‘cast rearls before swine” or to “give that which was holy to dogs.” There are nfany times when it is well for Christians to imitate their Master fn this. Do nret waste time and strength in replying to those who are .etermined to. cppose Christiarity under all circumstances. Replying often advertises the enemy; and arguments take the attention from tre main work of the Gospel, the saving of the world from sin. Attend to the business of the church, save men from sin: culture them into a noble character, help the needy, visit the sick. preach the Gospel, and the werks of Christianity will answer s ensmies. At the same time explanations of difficulties to those who wish to learn are®*always in order.

{ Macaulas In his essay on Milion says, "Actsto tells a story of a fTairy, who, by some mystericus law of her ' nature, was condemned to appear at ' certain gseasons in tte form of & foul, poisonous snake. Those who injured ‘ her during the period of her disguise were forever excluded from participa!'tion in the blessings which she bestowed. Rut to those who, in shite: ot her loathsome aspect, pitied and protected her, she afterward revedled herself in the beautiful and celestial form which was natural to her, accompanied their steps, granted all their wishes, filled their houses with wealth, made them happy in love and victori,ous in war.” So what is done to Christ in his disguised and lowly form is a test of our character and of our love, and will be rewarded and blessed by him when he comes in his glory; while those who reject him in his hu-

mility must come before his judgmentseat{;when he sits on the right hand of the power of God.

A possibie array of witnesses if they had wished to learn the truth. What an array of witnesses they might have found had they wished to learn the truth! Here a company of those who had been lame, but now were running to tell the story of their healing; there a band of those who had been blind, but now could see; lepers who had been cleansed; demoniacs ciothed and in their right mind; sick raised from their beds, and deaa brought to life again; sad hearts comforted; sinful souls redeemed; ignorant minds anlightened, and the wandering ones restored.

Godlike Giving.

God so loved that He gave. That is the expression, as it is the test, of love. Giving—not receiving, not withbolding, not condemning. We sinners can receive and withhold and condemn. Can we love? That is to be Godlike. God is love, and whosoever loveth is born of God and knoweth God. God loved, and just because He loved He gave. Can we measure that love? Only by His gift. Can we measure that gift? Only by His love. Both are megsureless.

the popularity at Washington this winter that was hers while a student at Bryn Mawr, she will nrake for herself an enviable record.

In appearance the president’s daughter is tall, well built and very dignified, with clear white.skin, which is usually well-browned by outdoor exercise. Her hair is brown and wavy and her eyes brown as berries She is so fond of wearing brown that she won for NWerself at Bryn Mawr the sobriquet of “‘nut-brown maid.” ) In manner, Miss Taft is as cordial

and frank as a child. She has a clear, resonant speaking voice, - and she enunciates her opinions on all sub-

BABY WASTED TO SKELETON

“My little son, when about a year and a half old, began to have sores come out on his face. I had a physiclan treat him, but the sores grew worse. Then they began to come out= on his arms, then on othef parts of" his. body, and ther one came on his chest, worse than the others.” Then I called another physician. Still he grew worse. At the end of about a year and a half of suffering he grew 80 bad that I had to tie his hands in cloths at night to keep him. from scratching the sores and tearing the flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton, and was hardly able to walk. “My aunt advised me to try Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Qintment. I sent to a drug store and got a cake of Cuticura Soap and a box of the Ointment and followed directions. At the end of two months the sores were all well. He has never had any sores of any kind since. - I can sincerely say that only for Cuticura my child would have died. I used only one cake of Cuticura Socap and about three boxes of Ointment. & “I am a nurse.and my profession brings me into many different families and it is always a pleasure for me to tell my story and recommend

DRINK WATER TO CURE KIDNEYS AND RHEUMATISM

The People Do Not Drink Enough Water to Keéep Healthy, Says Well-Known ~ Authority. .

“The numerous cases of kidney and bladder diseases and rheumatism are mainly due.to the fact that the drinking of water, nature’s greatest medie cine, has been neglected. Stop loading your system with medicines and cure-alls; but get on the water wagon. * If you are really sick, why, of course, take the proper medicines—plain, common vegetable treatment, which will not shatter the nerves or ruin the stomach.”

To cure Rheumatism you must make the kidneys do their work; they are the filters of the blood. They must be made to strain out of the blood the waste matter and acids that cause rheumatism; the urine must be neutralized so it will no longer be a source of irritation to the bladder, and, most of all, you must keep these acids from forming in the stomach. This is the cause of stomach trouble and poor digestion. For these conditions you can do no better than take the following prescription: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mix by shaking welli in bottle and take in teaspoonful doses after each meal and at bedtime, but don’t forget the water. Drink plenty and often. s

This valuable information and simnle prescription should be posted up ‘n each household and used at the first sign of an attack. of rheumatism, backache or urinary trouble, nc mabd rer how slizht :
