Make Hay While the Sun is Shining. There is a big volume of good sense in this old proverb. Herbert Kaufman recently amplified it by adding, "but put some of it in the loft." By this he 'meant, save some of the money you are making now. Leaders of the industrial world are trying to forecast what effect the declaration of peace in Europe will have on American industries. Right now they are running at full blast. Mechanics are drawing the highest wages ever paid in the history of the world, factories are running over time, brokers are revelling in wealth, the whole country is enjoying a "boom." How long will it last ? What will happen when Europe sends back millions of men, trained to concerted action, disciplined to obey, to work in the factories and shops? Will the competition prove too strong for us? Will we be able to meet the influx of cheap goods ? These are some of the factors that industrial leaders are trying to solve. They are divided in their opinion. Some of them assert that American supremacy cannot be questioned now, that we will hold our lead. Others fear the dumping of good here by our foreign competitors. The advice that all give as a general principle is save now, or to use the proverb, "make hay while the sun shines and be sure to put some in the loft."

... The Manila Outrage. The New York American sees provocation for another note in the holding up of an American merchant vessel in the entrance of Manila Bay by a British scout cruiser. The incident calls forth the following editorial: A British scout cruiser of the destroyer type has had the impudence to enter our territorial waters at the entrance of Manila Bay, halt an American merchant vessel, search the ship for an Irish passenger supposed to be on board, and then to rob the vessel of her manifest and paper. The object of stealing the ship's manifest was, of course, to spy out the private business of American shippers. When an alien warship enters our territorial

waters and forcibly halts and searches a mer

chant ship it commits an act of war and inflicts

upon our flag and sovereignty the most con temptuous of all insults.

Of course, all high-spirited Americans will be delighted to learn that Mr. Lansing has already

announced his determination to SEND A NO lb

to the British Government about the matter.

There is no possible insult or injury the

British Government can inflict upon the Ameri

can flag or upon American citizens which finds

Mr. Lansing without a note ready to be hurled.

M. Lansing is the most indefatigable, indus

trious, defiant and heroic hurler of notes known

to history.

It is a fine thing for the British Government that it does not have to pay the cable tolls. That

would indeed be a dreadful blow upon their ten derest spot. Frankly and candidly, .the cowardly submiss

ion of our State Department to the insults and injuries inflicted upon our commerce and our

citizens is a humiliation which has become in tolerable to decent Americans.

We are all tired of Mr. Lansing and his futile and farcical "notes," which England treats with

contempt and does not even deign to answer.

Happily for our honor and good name we also all have votes and a rapidly approaching oppor

tunity to use them to restore the nation s rights.

honor and self-respect, as well as the respect of

the rest of the world.

"Where you goln' to take him?" asked Mac Alarney, warily. "You can't hids him from them in town." "Who's talking about hiding him!" Elaine demanded, with contemptuous Impatience. "Your brain must be taking a rest cure. Mac! We'll go straight to Miss Lawton, deliver the goods and get the reward, before they beat us to it! It'll be easy to explain matters to her; she won't care much about the story as long as she's got him again alive, and at that you've only got to stick to the truth, and I'm right there to back you up In it. Any 'fool could realize that you'd have produced him ind claimed the reward. If you had known who he actually was. Whoever brought him here gave you the wrong dope and you fell for it, that's all For the Lord's sake, hurry!" "You're right, Mr. Blaine. It's the only thing to do now. I fell for their dope, all right, but they'll fall harder before I'm through with them! Lend me your two men, here. There's no use having any of mine except Al get wise. You and the Doctor wait in the ar. and we'll bring him out." Henry Blaine motioned to his operatives, with a curt wave of his hand, to follow Mac Alarney, and turning, he went out of the door and down the steps to his car. with the Doctor at his heels. "You don't suppose that he saw through your Btory, do you, Mr. Blaine?" the latter queried in an anxious whisper, as they settled themselves to wait with what patience they could muster. "Could that suggestion of his have been merely a ruse to sepnrate your assistants from, you?" "Hardly, Doctor. It's part of my profession to have made a study of human nature, and Mac Alarney's type Is an open book to me. Added to that, I've known the man himself for years, in an offhand way. I've got his confidence, and now that he realizes he is in a hol, hp's a child in my hands, even if he thinks for the moment that as a detective I'm about the poorest specimen in captivity. Steady now, here thy come!" The large double doors had been thrown wld open and Mac Alarney, the burly Al. and the two operatives appeared, bearing between them a limp, unconscious, blanket-swathed form. As they eased it into the back seat of the limousine. Blaine flashed his eloctric packet light upon the elanntn? face. !

i knew I wasn't mistaken!" he

whispered exultantly to Mac Alarney and the Doctor. "It's young Hamilton, all right. Now, let's be off. The others crowded In, and they whirled down the drive and out once more upon the wide State road, in the opposite direction to that in which they had come. A bare half-mile away, and thev came abruptly upon the ambulance.' screened by the clump of raked elms at the side of the road. "You get in first. Doctor." ordered Blaine, significantly. "You've got to look after your patient now." As the Doctor obeyed. Mac Alarney, with a shrewd gleam in his eyes, turned to the detective. "I think I'd better ride with him, too, Mr. Blaine," he observed. "You don't know who you can trust these days. Ycur ambulance driver may give ycu the slip." "All right, Mac!" Blaine assented, with bluff heartiness. "We'll both ride wSth him! Did you think I'd try to double-cross you, too? I can't blame you, after the rotten deal that's been

handed to you, but we won't waste time arguing. Here's the stretcher. Come on, shove him in!" The Doctor had been wondering when the denouement of this adventure would be. Now it came without warning, with a startling suddenness which left him dazed and agape. The inert body of his patient was laid carefully beside him, and he glanced out of the ambulance door in time to see Mac Alarney dismiss his burly assistant, and turn to enter the vericle. His foot was already upon the lowest step, when the Doctor saw Blaine raise his hand to his lips. A short, sharp blast of a whistle pierced the air, and in an instant a dozen men had sprung out of the darkness and leaped upon the two surprised mis

creants. Then ensued a struggle, brief

but awfyi to the onlooker in its silent,

grim ferocity, as the two separate

knots of men battled each about the

hard-packed road, the mutter of curses, the dull thud of blows, the

hoarse, strangulated breathing of men fighting against odds to the last ounce of their strength, came to the Doctor's startled ears in a confused babel of

half-suppressed sound,- with the purr

ing drone of the two engines as an un

dertone.

A minute, and it was all over. The thick-set Al went down like a felled

ox, and Mac Alarney wavered under

an avalanche of blows and crumpled to his knees. Handcuffed and securely bound, the two were bundled into

Blaine's waiting car.

THE KING AND HIS BROTHER Part I Once upon a time there was a King who had a wicked brother named Kato, who wanted to reign in his place. He tried every way he could think of to get his brother off the throne, and when he had exhausted his wit he went to a wicked old miser that lived in a forest and who had magic power and asked him to help him. "For half of your kingdom when you get it I will help you," 6aid the old miser. "Will you give it to me?" Kato did not want to do this, for he wanted to be very rich as well as to rule, but he thought that half a kingdom was better than none at all, so he consented to give the old miser half of the kingdom when he was rid of his brother, the King. But the old miser was crafty and knew if he would he unjust to his brother, the King, he would not keep his word to him, so he told him he must leave with his sister, who was a witch and lived in a cave near him, his daughter, who was young and beautiful. Now, Kato really loved this daughter, whose name was Neta, and he did not want to give her to the witch, but the miser told him that was the only way he could have his help, and at last he consented to leave his daughter with the old witch, his love of glory was so great, and so poor Neta was carried off by the old witch to her cave in the woods. The old miser did not wait long to begin his wicked work, and one day when the King was riding through the forest with his servants, who had been bribed by Kato to take the King into the forest and not to interfere with anyone who attacked the King, he struck the King a blow with a long staff he carried and turned the King into a tree. Now the miser had the power to change the shape of persons or things once, but having changed them he could not change them back again, and it was to his sister, the witch, he had to go when he wanted to do this. So after he had changed the real King into a tree he went to his sister to ask her how to change him back into his own shape In case the King (Kato was now called King,) did not pay him for doing his wicked work. Little Neta was listening and heard the miser say he had changed the King's brother into a tree and if the

ewspaper Syndicate, New York.

King did not give him half the kingdom he should change the tree into a man : again and ' also Neta must be changed into a toad and hop about the rest of her life. Poor little Neta almost screamed out with fright when she heard this, but 6he knew her safety depended on keeping quiet, and also her father's life, for she thought, of course, her uncle, the real King, had caused this wicked thing to be done to her father. The old witch told the miser that the only way was at the hour of midnight, on the last stroke of the hour, and the one who worked the spell must get a magic wand that was guarded by a dragon which lived in the side of the mountain. This seemed to poorNeta, who was listening, an impqssible task for her to do, but she thought of her poor father had been changed into a tree, and that was the reason he did not come for her, and Bhe now must try to rescue him. So that night, when the old witch was sleeping Neta stole out and went to the mountain. When she came to the cave where the dragon lived she could hear him roar and see the flash of his fiery eyes as he lay stretched in the doorway, with one paw resting on the magic wand. Neta closed her eyes and said a prayer, and then, without knowing what would happen to her, she crept softly around the cave. She could feel the hot breath of the dragon now, she was so near, but she knew the old witch would find her, and she would be changed into a toad if she did not rescue her father, who was, as she thought, imprisoned in the shape of a tree. Tomorrow I will tell you how she got the magic wand.

Mr. Morris Tells His Experience. The following brief account of an interview with a Richmond man over seven years ago, and Us sequel, will be read with keen Interest by every citizen. J. W. Morris, proprietor meat market, 421 Main street, Richmond, says: "I suffered from backache for several years, the attacks at times being so severe that I could hardly straighten up. I was told it was lumbago. The kidney secretions were sometimes profuse and then again scanty in passage, making it plain that my kidneys were affected. I began doctoring, but it was not until I had taken several different medicines without success that I chanced on Doan's Kidney Pills. I used three boxes and was cured of the backache." The above statement was given on Dec. 12. 1908, and on Sept. 15, 191-5, Mr. Morris said: "Since giving a former recommendation for Doan's Kidney Pills, I have had but few occasions to use them. When I have, they have never failed to relieve me." Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mr. Morris has twice publicly recommended.
