Business Chat. The Greatest Fourth Ever ' Probably never in the history of the wotfd has a national holiday been celebrated by so many people as observed the Fourth of July yesterday. Our Independence day was marked in London by the Stars and Stripes flying from the tower of the House of Parliament, placed there by order of King George, from whose country we declared our independence 141 years ago. There was an elaborate and interesting pro
gram in Paris in observance of our holiday. The
neonle made it an occasion for greeting our troops
and for an expression of their friendship for us. 1 11 A.
In that connection, announcement is maae max,
plans are under way for the erection of a memor
ial to commemorate the gratitude of the French
people" for the kindly interest and help of the United States in this great world war.
- Little Cuba made the observance ot yesteraay . . ii.
almost, a national affair. The President oi me
republic with officers of ,Jiis civil and military staffs joined in the ceremonies held in Havana.
There was rejoicing m Panama, ana unusuai interest was reported from Russia, South Africa, Italy and even Mexico. In fact, the major portion of the civilized world paused long enough yesterday to manifest its interest in our annual
ooservance oi iuucpcnucu-c. j. . .. , All that means more than mere international
courtesy. This war has drawn us out of our traditional isolation and has drawn the nations of the world closer together. Great Britain, France, Russia, Italy mean more to us than ever before, and we mean more to them. The international barriers have been leveled as never before. , The world is getting better acquainted on all sides. That understanding will be longerAived than hostilities on the war fronts. It means that the world will be a great brotherhood of neighborly peoples when peace is established, instead of national units keeping largely to themselves. And when the struggle is all over and the reasons for bitterness have been wiped out, it is likely that those whom we are now fighting will understand us and the rest of the world better and they, too, will be able to rejoice with us on the anniversary of the birth of our independence.

Creeping forward with both anna j outstretched against the left-hand wall, he reached the spot where the horse had been, and shuddered on the smooth dark edge of a hole that went the full width of the floor. There came whispering up out. of it, and a dank wet smell, as if there were running water a mile away below. He could . feel that a little air flowed downward into it. Twenty yards away on the far side the path resumed, but there was neither hand or foothold on the smooth- damp walls between. He went back to his men with a shiver between his shoulderblades, and the mullah, standing in the gap of the mosque wall, blinked at him with lashless eyes. , "Many have entered," he chanted maliciously. "Some went out by a different road!" "Come!" Ismail growled at the other men, seizing the mule's bridle himself and leading to the left "The ghosts will have a charger now for their captain to ride! Lead on. hakim sahib!" Come!" called the one-eyed guide from the neck of the fork ahead. And as they all pressed forward after King the hairless mullah gave the signal and the great stone door slid slowiv inMniiFA It was like a tombstone.

After two sharp turns they came out unexpectedly into the blaze of blue day, nearly stunned by light and sound. A roar came up from below like that of an ocean in the grip of a tyrhoon.

What Become of Them ?
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands, July 5. .Five and a half million pigs have
mysteriously disappeared in Germany in six months. According to a memorial laid before the War Food Bureau
by ( the Progressive reopie s party,
13,000,000 swine were actually slaugh; . tered in the half-year between -Sep-;"-tember 1. 1916. and March 1. 117,' whereas officially controlled ' slaugb-; , terers in that period only show a total of 7,600.000. Such an enormous secret slaughter of pigs shows how dif- ... flcult it is for the authorities to exercise the requisite control over the country's food stocks.

formed a sort of road along one side of a mouth-wide , chasm. Above him,
it seemed a mile up, was blue sky, to
which limestone walls ran sheer, with
scarcely a foothold that could be seen.
Beneath, so deep that eyes oould not
guess ' how deep, yawned the stained gorge of the underworld, many-color
ed, smooth and wet. And out of a great, lagged slit in the side of the cliff, perhaps a thou- . . i j

down into thunderous dimness a wa
terfall whose breadth seemed not less than half a mile. It spouted seventy or eighty yards before it began to
curve, and its din was like tne voice
of all creation. ' Ismail came and. stood by King. in
silence, taking his hand, as a nine
child might." Presently he stooped and picked ' tip a stone and tossed it
over. . --i f- "
"Gone!" he said" simply. "That

"And this is the 'Heart of the Hills'
men boast about?"
"Nay! It is not!" snapped Ismail. "Then, where " Rut the nre-eved ffuide beckoned im
patiently, and King led the way after him, staring at hakim or prisoner or
any man had rignt to ao on nrsi aamission to such wonders. Not to have
stared would have been to proclaim
himself an idiot.
The- least of all the wonders was that the secret of the place should have been kept all down the centuries; for It was the hollow middle of a limestone mountain, that could neither be looked down into from above, because the heights were not scalable, nor guessed at from the conformation of the country. The river, that flowed out of rock and went plunging down into the chasm, must be snow from the Himalayan peaks, on its way to swell the sea. There was no other way to account for that; but that explanation did explain why at least one Indian river is no greater than it is. To be continued
"Within the Law" will be seen with the Otis Oliver Players at the Murray for three days starting this evening. It tells the story ot a shopgirl wrongfully convicted of theft and
harshly punished by ner employer s influence. She revolts against society, sharpens her wits on her sense of injustice and returns to New York city to open a campaign of swindling and blackmailing, all within the law. Matinees will be given Friday and Saturday.

food director of the. united states, is
of the opinion tnat n tne women oi the country can be interested in conserving the vast crop of fruit and vegetables, the question of the food supply for the coming year will be largely solved.
The first machine ever to "talk back", to a man, from which the modern phonograph has been evolved, Thomas A. Edison's favorite invention, is on exhibition in Richmond, having come here direct from the inventor at Orange, N. J. The little machine, Invented in 1877 was sent to Richmond after several months of dickering and is on exhibi

Use Cocoanut Oil 1 For Washing Hair
. If you want to keep : -ur hair iu good condition, be careful ' hat ;ou wash it with. Most soaps and picpared rv-r:noos contain too much tlkali. This dries the seal makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Just plain mulslfied cocoanut oil (which is pure ana entirely groaseless). is much better than the most expensive soaii or anything else you can use for shampooing, as this can't possibly injure the hair. Simply moisten your hair with water and rub it in. One r: two tea&poonfnls will make an abundance of rich, cream v lather, and cleanses the hatr and san -thoroughly. . The lather rinses out easily, and removes every narticle of dust, dirt, dandruff and exeeive oil. The hair C.:es ouickly and evenly, and " leaves it :ine and sjlkly. bright, fluffy nd easy to mana8You can get mulsif led. cocoanut oil at most any drug store.

You can buy a Jeffery Six now at $300 less than its actual value If the material that are used in the manufacture of a Jeffery Six were purchased at the present market prices, the car could not be built to sell, even by the big, economical factory of the Nash Motors Co.," at a figure less than considerably over $1700. That's why you are saving at least $300 if you buy a Jeffery Six at $1465. - Existing conditions make an advance in price inevitable. If you like the Jeffery Six, and you will like it if you have a demonstration, place your order for one today. See your local dealer-about this proposition. t Mr. Frank G. Geers
