War Prosperity

War prosperity must end some time. Indus

try In the United States has been stimulated. by the excessive orders for munitions and supplies placed hewTby the Allies. The condition is regarded as abnormal by. students of economic

conditions. Many of the ablest

sounding a warning to the American people ask

ing them to save while they have opportunity and begging them to prepare for the day of depression.

None of us can foretell exactly

pen when Europe calls back her fighting men and peace settles over the battlefields. All of us can take time by the forelock, however, and shape our affairs so that we will be prepared for any eventuality. In the light of this observation, the statement of Charles M. Schwab, president of the Bethlehem Steel works, may assume significance. It follows in the form of a news dispatch from St. Louis: & . "Because the American people have not learned to economize and have become extravagant, Charles M. Schwab believes a period of increased prosperity after the war will be followed by a period of depression. "Mr. Schwab was quoted as saying that the fact that this country with less than one-seventh of the population of the world, owns more than one-third of the world's wealth, carries with it the knowledge of a temptation to be guarded against."

THE GOLD OF THE GODS

BY ARTHUR "Do you know anything more about these men, Lockwood and de Moche?" he queried, as we 6ped uptown. "I dont know a thing," he replied cautiously. "I I'd much prefer not to talk of suspicions." "But the dagger," Insisted Kennedy. "Have you no suspicions of what became of It and who took It?'' "I'd prefer not to talk of mere suspicions," ho repeated. Lltt!e was said a -3 we turned In at tho campus an'l at last drew up before Ncrton's wing of the Museum. "You will let me know of any development, no matter how trivial?" asked Kennedy, as we parted. "Your dagger seems to have stirred up more trouble than there was any reason to euppose when you came to me first." "I should say so," he agreed. "I don't know how to repay the Interest you have 6hown in its recovery. If anything else materializes, I shall surely get word to you immediately." As we turned to leave, I could not ' help thinking of the manner of Lockwocd and Norton toward each other. Tho name Stuart Whitney ran through my head. Stuart Whitney was a trustee of the University who had contributed heavily, among other things, to Norton's various expeditions to South America. Was it that Norton felt a peculiar loyalty to Whitney, or was he jealous that any one else should succeed in interesting his patron In things South American? The actions of the two young men, Lockwood and de Moche, recurred to me. "Well." I remarked, as we walked along, "what do you think it is a romance or a 6imple crime-hunt?" "Both. I suspect," replied Craig abstractedly. "Only not simple." "I think I'll go into the University Library," Craig remarked, as we left , Norton before his building. "I want to refresh my mind on some of those old Peruvian antiquities and traditions. What the Senorita hinted at may prove to be very important. I support you will have to turn in a story to the Star soon?"

"I think you'll find It worth while. Anyhow, this will give you a chance for a breathing space, and, if I have this thing doped out right, you won't get another for some time. I'll meet 1 you over in the laboratory in a couple or nours. . Craig hurried up the long flight of white-marble steps to the library and disappeared, while I jumped on the subway and ran downtown to the office. It took me, as I knew It would, considerably over a couple of hours to clear things up at the Star, so that I could take advantage of a special arrangement which I had made, so that I could, when a case warranted it, cooperate with Kennedy. My story was necessarily brief, but that was what I wanted just now. I did not propose to have the whole field of special-feature writers camping on my preserve. Uptown I hurried again, afraid that Kennedy had finished and might have been called away. But when I reached the laboratory he was not there, and I found that he bad not been. Up and down I paced restlessly. There was nothing else to do but wait. If he was unable to keep his appointment here with me, I knew that he would soon telephone. What was it, I wondered, that kept him delving into the archaeological lore of the library? I had about given him up, when he hurried into the laboratory in a high state of excitement. "What did you find?" I queried. "Has anything happened?" "Let me tell you first what I fdund In the library," he replied, tilting his hat back on his head and alternately thrusting and withdrawing his fingers in his waistcoat pockets, as if in some way that might help him to piece together some scattered fragments of a story which be had just picked up. "I've been looking up that hint that

graceful chapters of the volume has to do with 0. Henry's sentence to prison for embezzlement. Mankind has steadfastly adhered to the principle that after a man's death his mistakes are to be forgotten and forgiven. The professor who wrote 0. Henry's biography has been ruthless and uncharitable in his portrayal of this chapter in the writer's life.. Some one has rightly remarked that he wished to be spared the arrows and flings of a biographer. Too often a carping critic goes into the details, dragging to publicity weaknesses and errors that a charitable mankind has forgotten. We believe that a man writing the biography of Lincoln, if he reproduced the calumny and vituperation hurled at the Emancipator during his heated political campaigns, might produce a volume that would give a distorted and unfaithful account of his life. During a man's life, many charges are brought against him ; after he is dead, he has no one to defend his good name. The common proprieties of life suggest that a man be given a square deal and a fair chance to defend himself. This opportunity is denied a man after he has crossed the great divide. The daughter of 0. Henry recently gave out the following statement about her father's biography: "Naturally the main question at issue was the handling of the prison chapter in my father's life. Neither the members of his family nor his friends ever mentioned it, nor did he himself ever speak of it. It was not the arrest, conviction, and sentence itself which was so terrible, but the injustice of it all. I think my father would not allow himself to think about it because of the fear that his . sense of injustice would embitter his whole viewpoint and rob him of the sweetness, the kindliness, the charity, and understanding that permeate everything he has written. The only letters written by my father while he was in prison were to my grandmothermy mother's mother. These letters were, of course, absolutely necessary, if the biography were to be complete. She earnestly, it now appears wisely, opposed

giving these letters to the world, which means that she opposed the biography itself." We believe the people of the United States will not condone the chapter that calls attention to 0. Henry's mistake. It takes the side of the family and of 0. Henry's friends.

Keeps Her Chileren In Perfect Health

Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin the Fam-J My Laxative for Many Years. Mrs. Aug. Doellefeld of Carlyle, 111., recently wrote to Dr. Caldwell, at Monticello, 111., that she has used Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin in her home for a number of years, and would not be without it, as with it she has been able to keep her four children in perfect health. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin that acts on the bowels in an easy, natural way, and regulates the action of this most important function. Nearly all the sickness to which children are subject is traceable to bowel inaction, and a mild, dependable laxative, such as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin should have a place in every family medicine chest. It is pleasant to the taste and children like it, and take it readily, while it is equally effective for adults. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold in drug stores everywhere for fifty cents a bottle. To avoid imitations and ineffective substitutes be sure you get Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.

Copyright 1916, by the MeCture N WILLIAM'S SACRIFICE William had almost everything he wanted when he was a boy, but the thing he loved best was his dog Ruff. Raff was a bulldog, and could fight any dog around, if need be, and whip him, too, but he was a good dog, and never started a fight unless the other dog came to hie yard and 6tayed too long. Not far from William's house lived a crippled boy named Ralph, and William often went to see him to carry him books to read, for Ralph was the son of a poor widow who did sewing for William's mother. One day William took some work for Ralph's , mother to do, and Ruff went along. When Ralph saw the dog his face lightened up, and he called the dog to him, patting his head and saying, "You good old fellow, how I should like to have a dog like you." Ruff made friends with Ralph at once and sat by him all the time William was there. When It was time to go William had to call the dog before he would lave Ralph's side. "I guess he likes you pretty well," said William. "He never had to be called before when I started to go out." "I think he knows I like him and thatvl am a cripple. Animals know those who like them, and they are also very sympathetic," said Ralph patting Ruff and telling him to come again with his ma6ter. The next day when William came home from school he could not find Ruff. He called several times, but no Ruff could be found. After dinner William went out to look for him and went in the direction of Ralph's house, when to his surprise he saw Ruff in Ralph's yard looking up at the window where he sat. Ralph beckoned for William to come in. "He come here this morning, and when I thought you would be home from school I asked mother to put him out and tell him to go home, but he came back to the window, and here he sat looking up at me. I am sure he is sorry because' I cannot run and walk as other boys do and he is try ing to show his sympathy for me." That night after dinner William said to his mother and father, "I am going to give Ruff to Ralph. He loves dogs and he has to sit alone so much; I am sure Ruff would be great company for him." His father and mother looked surprised, for they knew that Ruff was the best loved of all William's pets. "But who will pay the license for Ruff? You know Ralph's mother has all she can do now to get along," said his father. I : ''" "Oh, I have thought rofi that too," explained William. "I am going to pay it out of my allowance. It would not be a gift If I did not do that." The next day William took Ruff to Ralph's bouse and led him up to him. "Here is your dog," he said. "I have brought him home." "What do you mean by saying he that a facsimile of Dr. Caldwell's signature and his portrait appear on the yellow carton in which the bottle is packed.

is my dog?" asked Ralph, looking surprised. "Why, your name is on his collar, so I thought he must belong to you, and brought him home," replied William, smiling. Ralph looked at Ruffs collar, and sure enough there was his own name, and the street and number of his house also. Ralph looked up at William with wonder in his eyes. "It is aSl right, Ralph," said William, smiling bravely, "you need him more than I do, and I think he likes you best; anyway he knows you need him, and I am giving him to you to keep; I shall come to see him often, because I shall come oftener than I ever have, and you need not worry about the license, that goes with the gift." William hurried out before Ralph could thank him, striving hard to keep back the tears. "Our boy has made a real sacrifice," said William's mother after dinner Here's a New One FRESH Grated Coconut in cans not shredded or dried, but fresh grated, packed in its own rich milk.
