Protecting the Birds The federal government has thrown the mantle of protection over the migratory birds. Secretary Houston of the agricultural department recently announced the rulings of the government. Birds need protection to prevent their extermination. It is a shame that thousands of them have been slaughtered for commercial purposes and out of mere lust to kill. All insectivorous birds are protected indefinitely under the secretary's order and protection until September 1, 1918, is provided for bandtailed pigeons, cranes, wood ducks, swans, curley, willet, upland plover and smaller shore birds. Open seasons for other waterfowl, coots, gallinules, jacksnipes, black breasted and golden plover, greater and lesser yellow-legs, rails and woodcocks are defined state by state..

The Maine Election The election in Maine this year is causing both parties severe headaches. It will give them the first line on how the Progressive vote will go in the fall election. In 1912 the Roosevelt vote was 48,493, Taft received 26,545 and Wilson 51,113. In 1914 the Democratic candidate for governor received 62,039 votes, the Republican candidate 58,862, and the Progressive 18,225. The combined Republican and Progressive vote exceeded the Democratic by 15,048. The New York World discusses the outlook in this manner: In order to carry Maine this year, the Democrats will have to win 12,000 of the votes cast for Taft and Roosevelt in 1912. That would mean approximately 25 per cent of the total Roosevelt

vote. On the basis of. the 1914 vote, a change of 8,000 would be enough, but this would be practically 45 per cent of the vote cast for the Progressive candidate for Governor two years ago. Neither side knows how this Progressive vote will split, and thus an importance attaches to the Maine election this year which has brought great anxiety to the campaign managers of both parties. That is why the Republicans are sending Mr. Hughes and Mr. Roosevelt to Maine in a desperate effort to hold the Progressive vote in Une for the Republican candidates. A Trade Challenge If leaders of industry in the United States believe that Germany is bleeding to death and that her commercial barons will sit by .while the Entente powers gobble up the world's trade, they

would do well in appointing a commission to

study what Germany is doing now to be ready for business war when the great conflict ends.

Philip Heineken, director of the North Ger

man Lloyd Steamship Line, has giyen out a statement in which he declares that every German ship destroyed in the war has been replaced and that his line has built four new passenger steamers and that it intends to build a large number of 4,000-ton steamers of a uniform type to enable it to send out a swarm of ships with great rapidity when the war is over. We do not know what is going on behind the lines in Germany. Her efficiency engineers are not sleeping, but are devising plans now to counteract losses sustained in the war and to enable the Germans to go ahead with their program of selling in all the markets of the world.

Trade Prejudice Let a group of men or a community become obsessed of an idea that a city is not treating them fairly and the prejudice engendered by the thought will cost the affected municipality thousands of dollars. Every city must use good judgment in the enactment of ordinances so that no class will feel that the law works a hardship on it. Hasty and ill advised City ordinances often do more damage than they do good, not because that which they set out to do is incorrect but because the ordinance is so framed that it fails to accomplish what its designers had in view. For instance, traffic regulation is necessary. But that does not mean that an ordinance which has been found effective in Dayton or Hamilton can be applied here effectively. Local conditions and local demands must regulate all ordinance making.

I am sorry that I lost my temper," "While I have the courage to speak of the matter I want to tell you that she pleaded. Perhaps" looking up into his face with wide eyes "you will forgive me when I tell you how unhappy I am. For the man who has been paying me attention and has made me like him, told me -and believed him that he was John Redfield." Kelley Delaine was off his guard for the Instant, and started violently. "The d scoundrel!" he exclaimed. Then, as he looked at the girl, a cold hand seemed to be closing slowly about his heart. For he knew that the lied. It was not strange that the hours dragged in Delaine's study after the conversation between him and his stenographer. The author tried to keep his thoughts on his work, but before him there arose visions of the woman he loved and his heart ached at the futility of expecting her sister to be truthful. Again and again came to his mind the question: "What was Caryl Marvin hiding, or trying to hide?" Yet. even while he distrusted Caryl, Kelley Delaine was sorry for her when he noted how her lips twitched and how nervous she was as she attempted to take his dictation. At last, out of sheer pity, he suggested that she would better put in the rest of the morning in doing some copying for him. Then, handing her the first draft of an article he had written, he left her alone, explaining that he had some business to attend to. "Do not work later than twelve, Miss Marvin," he said courteously.

"There is no rush about that stuff and to-morrow will be another day." "Thank you," Caryl murmured. "I will, of course, work steadily until twelve." She kept on at her typewriting after she had heard her employer close the front door behind him. Might he not return and listen to see If she was busy, or might he not order his servant to spy upon her doings? Surely higher than one's self can no man or woman think! When the noon whistles blew Caryl closed her machine with shaking hands. She did not remember that in all her life before she had. ever been as nervous as she was now. Kelley Delaine was, she felt sure, determined to ferret out her affairs. He had discovered that she had lied to Julia and to him. While she tried to comfort herself with the thought that perhaps she had thrown him off the scent by telling him that the man from whom she had accepted favors had posed to her as John Redfield, it would be only a matter of a few days, or a few hours, before Delaine would learn by detective work who this man was and charge him with masquerading under another person's name. Then Hadley

would possibly drop her. She could not part from him now! He was going to marry her he had as good as asked her to be his wife and now all her beautiful castles in the air were likely to tumble down about her ears. To Be Continued.

RON (TLAW"

BY ARTHUR STRINGER

Read the Story in the Palladium and See It at the Palace Theirs ""were certain pnarffes of that hurried pursuit, however, which had not entirely escaped the attention of a circumspect, stranger who had motored casually about the fcuiet streets of Cedarton earlier in the evening. Aunt Jemima Watson, in fact, had scarcely recovered from the shock consequent upon the sudden Invasion of her cottage when she discovered herself confronted by still another stranger. And the fact that this stranger wore a yellow mask did not add to her immediate peace of mind. "All I want to know, my good woman, is where those men axe taking your husband." "Dey's takin him back f whar he done got dat bird," explained the negress. The stranger started for the door. Then he stopped, dead short. For lying overlooked on the floor, close beside a battered water bucket, he caught sight of a familiar-looking oblong of yellow paper. In another moment he had possession of it. "Where did that paper come from?" he demanded. For he knew that it was the long-sought Golden chart which he held in his hand. "Dat done come from mah offus sweepln's," explained tho other. "But mah Rastus allows it hain't even wuff a green tradin' stamp!" "Your Rastus may be right," was the stranger's quiet reply. "But it's worth this much to me." And Aunt Jemima found a ten-dollar bill thrust into her astonished pink palm. "That is yours, my good woman, if you do just one thing, and do it quickly. I want you to go to the sheriff's, wake him up,' and get him to the house where that woman called Hannah works. Tell him to got there in a hurry, and to bring his men, or there'll be murder done in this village before the sun rises!" The man in the yellow mask waited for nothing more. A minute later he was off, running shadowlike through the darkness. Shadowlike, too, he approached an ivy-bowered bungalow in which three women were quietly playing "preference" in the light of a green-shaded reading lamp. But the man in the mask, preferring to leave that peaceful game undisturbed, stole quietly in through the back of the house, locked himself in a small room above stairs, and there adroitly but quickly made a facsimile of the map. Before that map could be completed though, strange events were already transpiring directly beneath where he sat. For Margery Golden, glancing up from her game, stared Tdly'nto the old-fashioned mirror of bevel plate facing her from the opposite wall. And peering in at the window reflected in that mirror she saw a bearded face seamed with an unmistakable scar. She did not scream aloud, as her first Impulse had prompted, but she

sat staring down at her carat, trying to study out the dilemma which confronted her. For the face she had seen was Legar's. The move she quietly decided upon was to call the strangely reticent chauffeur of her strangely elusive deliverer and ask him to make ready for an immediate flight to the city. She watched that chauffeur as ho threw on a heavy bear-skin coat and cap, wound a muffler about his neck, and started for the garage. She watched him as he stepped out Into the darkness. 'Then the bear-skinned figure became the center of strange and unlooked-for activities, for it was plain that several men, lurking there in the darkness, had sprung upon him. It was equally plain that they lost little time in overpowering him, for before the startled women could rise from the card table they found that home of peace invaded by a group of audacious-eyed ruffians headed by Legar himself. The latter bowed ironically to the white-faced girl as he confronted her. His advance towards her, though, was interrupted by the suddenly renewed struggles of the chauffeur, who, as he tried to break away from his captors, called loudly for help. Legar, looking nonchalantly about, crossed to a door, swung it wide, and saw that it opened into a closet. "Throw that grizzly in here until he learns how to keep quiet!" was their leader's crisp command. "And now, my girl, I guess It's your turn again!" was his next sinister exclamation. At tho same moment that these words were spoken still another unexpected intruder enter e- the room. Only this time it was the oddly Interruptive figure of that man of mystery known as the Laughing Mask. "Not a move from any man here!" he cried out as he faced that threatening circle, gun in hand. It was Legar himself who stepped back a pace or two, closely watching the automatic. "Before we start any shooting around here," the Laughing Mask calmly suggested, "I want Just a word or two, Legar, with you. I know what you're after. You want Golden's portion of a Windward Island chart. Well, I have that chart, and I have it with me. But there is no reason why women should be dragged into this fight. So the first thing you have to do, if you want that chart, is to allow Margery Golden and her mother here to return quietly to the city with my chauffeur, and return tonight!" Legar's lip curled. I - ! "And then you'll as quietly hand me over the paper, I suppose?" he scoffed. ' i "I'll hand you over the paper," agreed the Laughing Mask, for above all things he knew it was necessary to pjay for time.

'The gun and the map together," was the prompt demand. "And then what?" Inquired the Laughing Mask. "Then you wait In this closet until I make sure It's the map I've got," announced the audacious Legar. "I await your decision, gentlemen, In the jury room." mockingly announced the latter ashe stepped into the closet. ' Quick as a shot Legar shut and locked that door. "We've got htm, whatever his game is!" he announced as he darted across the room to the green-shaded lamp and placed the sheet of yellow paper down on the card table close beside a second piece which he had already drawn from his pocket "By God, I've got it!" exulted Legar. "Let out that driver in the bear skins first," he commanded, "and if that fool in the mask tries to move, plug him one." He handed the automatic to one of the men and motioned to him to unlock tho closet door. Then he Ordered the chauffeur to step out. "Now, you beat it with these ribs, and beat it quick!" That chauffeur had not taken six steps across the rcom before a sudden cry broke from one of the men standing close beside the card table. "Your map's gone!" was the bewildering message that fell on Legar's ears as he leaped to the table side. The man in the bear skins at the same moment Hepped out through the door. "That guy gave you a copy, a fake copy done in disappearing ink." . Legar gave one glance. Then, with an oath, he leaped for the closet door, flung it open, and sprung bodily on the masked figure, dragging it out to the light as he tore away the band of yellow that covered the latter's face. "That's the chauffeur!" cried one of the men. "They switched makeups in that closet, and the main guy's got away!" Then came a sudden trample of feet, a chorus of shouts and the charge of armed officers of the law through the house. For the sheriff had at last arrived. Legar, knowing what that meant, with one sweep of his hooked arm flung th.i green-shaded lamp from its

table; jumped fhrbi&i a window and vanished from sight The Shell of Deceit, : Margery Golden, all things considered, was once more in very excellent spirits. There were even moments when young David Manley considered those spirits as both deplorably and disturbingly excellent For the girl's happiness, he felt assured, was due to the presence of young Count Lugi da Espares. He had come, as more than one Impoverished young nobleman had come to America, to dispose of those canvases and curios which. If they had not once graced his own ' ancestral halls, had at least been conscientiously made, on the far side of the Atlantic, after models bearing every earmark of

the authentic. And one of the treasures which he had succeded In disposing of to Enoch Golden was a fall suit of medieval Japanese armor, complete even to the long-bladed Kagisaki dagger and grotesquely fashioned metal face mask. That leering metal face David Manley had hated from the first moment he saw it in position at the far side of the somber Golden library. The ugliness of that metal monstrosity. In fact seemed accentuated by the soft-toned canvas painting which stood Immediately behind It "Just what do yon see to like about that thing?" he somewhat brusquely Inquired. The girl's face grew seri-. ous. That leering metal face makes me think of the Laughing Mask, and now I'm almost certain I know 'who this Laughing Mask is." "Who?" " ; Count Lulgi da Espares himself!" ": I don't believe it!" "Yes, hut listen: Quite by accident yesterday, when we were having tea together, a yellow domino dropped from his pocket He was confused and seemed unwilling to make any real explanations about It" "Even a count could afford to invest in a ten-cent domino," was Mauley's; retort - - To Be Continued.
