MISGIVING8. When John was too far down the road to wave at them longer, Edith and the children went back Into the house which wore that Juat-moved-in aspect than which there Is probably nothing more discouraging except a cyclone. There were three trunks in the living room, barrels and a packing case in the middle of the kitchen floor. The living room chimneypiece was piled with books tied up with clothesline. The reading table, its legs wrapped In burlap groaned under a mass of folded curtains, ornaments, dishes, toys and odds and ends nobody knew what to do with. Never mind, thought Edith, smothering a sigh and tying on her biggest apron. It would be more cheerful when things were set to rights. As soon as she had the children settled nicely in the new stone schoolhouse which was Arcadia's proud boast, and found a scrubwoman and laundress, and learned where to do the household marketing, and arranged for a regular, milk supply, and ordered the paper sent, and saw about the garbage man, and the Ice delivery and got the windows washed and the curtains up, and the rugs down, and the electricity turned on, and had bought a little new furniW.

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM,

irTMirmiijininnii r ture to eke out, everything would be all right. The thought crossed her mind that John's Job just going to town to work seemed simpler than hers. But she promptly crushed down the thought and set to work. By lunchtlme Edith was too dead tired to eat, but when Virginia and little Jack thumped noisily onto the porch and into the house clamoring for food, one glance at their rosy faces gave her new strength and cheer. Then Lillian Blake came over. Lfl looked a bit fagged, too. "Come on, Ede, let's go'marketing! I'm goini? to murder tha man that keeps the grocery. Phoned him this morning for some things and what do you suppose he had the nerve to charge me for eggs? Sixty-three cents. Why, I only paid 55 in town! Coffee 38 cents; it was only 35 in the city for the very best. And I wish you'd seen the lettuce he sent up! My dear, it was positively mangy, and he asked 18 cents for it. I returned it Hurry, dear, and get on your things. Come, kiddies, Lil'll buy you some lollypops." Arcadia had two stores. One was a survival of the days of the "postoffice and general etore" when there was no land improvement, no concrete houses, no modern bungalows rented by commuters and their city-bred families. The other was a grocery ,and meat market combined, which catered to the new and more affluent population. Most of the newly arrived residents began with the up-to-date- looking shop. Mrs. Ferrol and Mrs. Blake now entered and were greeted with the effusive politeness of a profit-hungry proprietor. City follts were usually "spenders." Lil opened the attack, but the shopkeeper stilled her exuberant complaints with harsh facts. "We have to get everything from town," said he. "I paid 17 cents myself for that head of lettuce. Some days we can't get any at all. Same with eggs."

" CENTRAL AUTO STATION

They listened at length to his explanations, left small orders for their immediate needs and made their exit, their spirits dashed with vague misgivings. ' . "I tell you what," said Edith, struck with an idea, "let's find some nicw farmer and buy -direct from him. There must be lots around here. We can get there wives or daughters or somebody to come to us twice a week too for washing and cleaning." The two housewives spent the afternoon In fruitless quest. Every farmer declared he sent all his truck to town because it only paid to sell In quantity. Every farmer's wife was above "going out to service." The daughters worked In a neighboring factory. They recommended that the ladies go to the "Eyetalian settlement over by Kent's Bridge." They - had truck gardens and their womenfolk occasionally took in washing. Or the ladies might try the regular laundry in Danville, three miles away. The children were fretful, tired and hungry, and Edith and Lil went wearily home. Edith felt like cryitg, but Lil Blake was an optimist. "Ohr -don't fret, - dearie," she said. "Let the men take the laundry in to town to some Chinese. As for the feed we will soon be having fresh things from our own garden. Come on to my house for a cup o' tea." (To be continued.) v

Schaffer Gets Honorable Discharge from Navy Camp Eddie E. Schaffer has received an honorable medical discharge from Great Lakes following a confinement of five weeks in the camp hospital after an accident at the station in which he was seriously hurt. Schaffer will remain iin Richmond for the present. No food "rationing" will be necessary this year, so Mr. Hoover informs us. But economy is still to be our watchword. The more we save the more we have to put in War Savings Stamps, so we should worry.

NEW PARIS MAN IS IN PANAMA CAMP Leroy Arnold, formerly of New Paris, O., is now located in Panama, about one mile from where Balboa stood when he discoverd the Pacific ocean. "The Locks are very Interesting," he stated, saying that one could scarcely Imagine the immensity of them. "Our cots are all well screened on account of the mosqultoB. On our hikes we pass dense jungles which are inhabited with lions, wild cats, monkeys, parrots, boa-constrictors, and lizards," said the soldier. "The vegetation is very abundant, but similar to that of Ohio. The climate is splendid and the flowers beautiful. But we North Americans have not desired very strenuously to enter the Jungle yet." At presnt Arnold is in charge of a hospital ward, and has ten patients under his care. Along with this he is taking a course in First Aid and Pharmacy. His address is Private Faunt L. Arnold, Med.

Former Member of Co. K Is Now in Action

Corporal Robert Mendenhall, formerly member of Company K, Indiana State Militia, still thinks about his friends in the company. In a letter to Frank Benn, he asks about the kinds of drills the men engage In and how the company is progressing. Mendenhall is very profuse in his praise of .his officers. '"You have heard of the wonderful success which Uncle Sam's boys are having at present," he writes. "Wish I could say more on this subject, but will have to wait until I return home. I hope after the war Is over that they continue the state militia, for' I would like to be one among you again if I have luck to pull through O. K., I received my discharge papers from Capt. Malsby and want to thank him." COUGHED FIFTEEN YEARS. Coughs that hang- on and grow worse in the night and weaken the sufferer are relieved by Foley's Honey and Tar oftener than by any other remedy. R. F. Hall, Mabe, Va., writes: "For 15 years I was afflicted with a troublesome bronchial cough and irritation of the throat. Foley's Honey and Tar relieved me; after taking ojie bottle the cough ceased and has not returned." No medicine stands higher as a family remedy for colds for children and grown-ups. For sale by A.

Touring C&r

In the first power phase, you travel at any moderate pace, one or two to twenty miles an hour on a lean mixture, conserving fuel taking you quickly and easily about town, through traffic, up hill and down. And then, when speed and power are needed (second phase), step on the accelerator. You will be amazed at the showing- of speed and power.'
