AN ADVENTURE IN FOOD Edith eat still alter Mrs. Blake bad made her Indignant exit, whipping her thoughts into practical shape. She was a little dashed at Lil Blake's prophecy that nobody could "make a nickel doing fancy cookery unless they did It on a big scale, with things costing so much." Yet the idea of turning her talent for making goodies into a means of earning money appealed to her with tremendous force. She determined to try at any rate. Accordingly, on the next afternoon when her work was done and the children playing comfortably on a neighbor's porch, she put on her best-looking clothes and 6et out, as countless women have done before her, to try to "earn a little money." She took the trolley to a rather busy corner in a neighboring village where a fancy, grocery flourished. This was patronized by the wealthier families of the district and Edith felt sure they would want some of her kitchen products. Blushing painfully, she entered the shop and asked for the manager. "I'm Hardman, madam e,"' bowed a stout man, "owner of the place. I shall be glad to take your order personally. Have we the pleasure of your account?" Edith wanted to turn and run, but gathered her courage and replied, "I I didn't exactly wish to give an order. 1 er was hoping you might take one from me. Do you ever, Mr. Hardman, have inquiries for homemade cakes, jellies, mincemeat or simple candles for children?" The proprietor's face and manner changed abruptly at Edith's halting explanation. He put down his order book, replaced his cap and coughed. "Ah well, not much market for 'em," he said. "People around here either makes their own fancy stuff or has it out from the city. We got a good demand for flavoring extracts. Know how to make flavoring extracts? No; Edith did not know how to do that. "Well, you might send us a few Jars of your preserves, on memorandum that is, we'll give you what we get for 'em less 20 percent. But if I was

you, lady," he added practically, "I'd try the big stores in the city. They sell to thousands where we have only a local trade. Them things has to be made on a big scale or they ain't much profit in it. Not at all. Good afternoon." Almost Lil Blake's words! Edith felt abashed and flustered by her first experience in anything along business lines. She walked some distance into the residential part of the town, wondering how women ever get started in the remunerative enterprises she read of in magazines and newspapers. Presently she found herself in front of a handsome estate, parked and beautiful to the last degree of lavlshness. She slowed down a little in her walk, taking In the details of the house. Just then a plum-colored lim ousine swung from the road toward the private driveway of the mansion. A woman looked at Edith through the window of the car, and as Edith turned, the woman bowed, at the same time signaling the chauffeur to stop. Oh beg your pardon," aid the limousine lady the next instant, "I mistook you for a friend of mine." But she did not ell the man to drive on. 7 She looked at Edith Ferrol, apparently taking pleasure in her fresh pink lace, brightened by the walk and the excitement of the call on the groeeryman. "Perhaps you are lookCOUNTY DEMOCRATS WILL MEET TONIGHT County Democrats will meet tonight at 223 Colonial building for the purpose of party organization. Harry Strickland, democratic nominee for congress, William Jones, treasurer of the state fair and democratic candidate for auditor of state, and Walter Chambers, district chairman, will be present. Joshua Allen, democratic county chairman, stated that it was not to be a "pretentious meeting, but just a meeting of local Democrats." September 25, 26, 27 ! "Deserter" Turned Out to Be Common Tramp The deserter who was reported end brought in to the sheriff's office yesterday turned out to be merely a common tramp, who had been in jail here several times before. "He didn't look like he'd make a very good fighter, anyhow," said one of the witnesses "He looked to be between 45 and 50." After staying over night once more he was shipped down to Cincinnati.

ing for some one?" she added with the delightful smile of an old lady who has been young for a long time and still rejoices in life and people and the march of events. - Her manner impelled Edith to tell her errand. "Get In here with me," said the lady. "We'll have a cup of tea in the sitting room and talk things over. I know everybody around here." Feeling somewhere between an adventuress and a book canvasser, hut not embarrassed as she had been with the grocer, Edith did talk to the whitehaired hostess. "I like your independence and your spirit, child." said the older woman. "If your marmalades and your mincemeats are as good as your breeding, I will take them gladly. I have a chef and nine other servants but I'm hungry for something good to eat. Send me a trial batch of all you make." (To be continued.) 124TH INDIANA REGIMENT MEETS Thirty-nine veterans of the 124th Indiana Volunteer Regiment register' ed at the opening meeting of the annual reunion which held its first session at the court house Wednesday afternoon.

CLOSING OF SMITH STREET CONFIRMED The bond for the boilers and stokers to be placed in the Light plant, according to the ract of the Hatfield Electric company of Indianapolis, was approved and signed by the board of works this morning. The closing of Smith street, as was petitioned in a resolution presented to the beard, was confirmed. This street had been opened merely for the benefit of Minck's brewery, In conformity with a law which provided that all bottling works should open onto some street. Since this property has now been taken over by Harsh's coal yard, there is no reason for leaving the street open. Chief Gorman appeared before the board to call attention to the parking ordinance, which provides that parking only shall be done on the west sides of the streets, from Sixth to Tenth street, where in reality all the hitching racks are on the east side of the street. A suggestion was made that attention might be called to the fact that North A street, which is the widest street in the city, was open to parking on either side, and that it was within easy distance of the business section of the city. No action was taken by the board on the matter. Nimrod Johnson, manager of the Light, Heat and Power company's office, appeared and asked tr-at if the committee appointed by council, together with the board of works and the city attorney were going to confer upon the matter of gas rates that they meet before tomorrow evening. .

HOUSE APPROVES TAX PROVISIONS IN RECORD TIME t :( aaaaaM aBHaaBBaBMaa Sections Raising Many Mil- - lions Passed Without Protest.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19. All of the principal tax provisions of the new war revenue bill were approved by the House Wednesday almost as fast as two clerks working in relays could read them. With only a few minor provisions and amendments now to be considered leaders believe a final vote will be reached Friday. After adopting within an hour the war excess profits provisions without change, the House . passed important sections raising many millions of dollars without a word of objection or even discussion. . Every amendment proposed either was rejected summarily or passed over so that the Ways and Means committee can consider them before final action is taken. Adopted by House. Besides the war excess profits sections, which yield the greatest returns to come from the bill, provisions adopted to-day were taxes on estates, estimated to raise $110,000,000; transportation, $187,000,000; amusement admissions, $100,000,000; excise taxes, including automobiles, jewelry, luxuries and semi-luxuries, $518,000,000; beverages, $1,137,000,000; tobacco, $341,000,000; capital stock, $70,000,000; the federal automobile license provision, $72,930,000; stamp taxes, $32,000,000. The luxury taxes caused some discussion, some members contending the bill's rates to low and others that they are too high. An amendment by Representative Piatt, of New York, to reduce the luxuries rate from 20 to 10 per "cent, was defeated. The most important matters remaining to be disposed of are the proposal to tax cotton $3 a bale and to impose a 5 per cent, tax on products of child labor. The cotton tax was formally proposed today by Representative Moore, of Pennsylvania, and the amendment met instant and spirited opposition. Leaders predicted that the amendment would be rejected. .
