PERSHING SHIP RAGES TO LAND GENERAL IN TIME TO GREET FOCH

f;r Associated PrN NEW YORK. Oct. 27. The American Liner George Washineton, bringing General Pershing home from England, was racing to port today in an effort to get ahead of the French Liner Paris with Marshal Foch on board, bo that the former commander of the

American expeditionary forces may be

on hand to greet the distinguished: leader of the allied armies.

A wireless message received late

list night from the captain of the

Paris said he expected to reach quarantine about 2 o'clock Friday afternoon, while one from the George Washington indicated that she would make port the same day. The message from General Pershing's ship did not give the hour of probable arrival. Both vessels are being buffeted by high westerly winds, but It is expected that the engine room force of the George Washington, in response to a request from the American Legion to bond to the task and drive her through will do their utmost to keep the fast French liner astern. The George Washington had a two day start on the Paris. The French boat, however, has a maximum speed of 22 knots, fompared to her rival's 19. The George Washington's position at noon yesterday was given as 807 miles east of Ambrose lightship, which

should bring her to port Friday fore

noon.

Costly Fires Traced

to Very Small Causes (From the Washington Star.) A workman smoking a cigarette while cleaning a carpet on board the I

giant steamer Mauretania in dock at Southampton, let fall a spark which ignited the "petro" he was using as a cleansing fluid. Immediately a flame resulted that spread and before the fire could be extinguished the great ship was almost a wreck. Three of her decks had been gutted and it is estimated that it will require at least half a year to repair the damage. Traced to their sources most great fires start with insignificant causes, and are the result of carelessness. The tradition of Mrs. O'Leary's cow kicking over a lamp in a shed, and thus starting the great Chicago fire of half a century ago, has become established as a type of needless destruction. -Accepting that story as true, it is easy to see how the fire could have been prevented. A lamp should never have been used in a stable, or if takeu ihere, should have been put out of reach of the cow's heels. Despite the obvious danger, people continually work around inflammables with pipes or cigars and cigarettes. They light their smoking materials snd throw away their matches without care. Tn passing along the street thev will toss burning matches into

cellar gratings. They will throw lighted matches and cigarettes out of windows to ignite awnings and perhaps to fall into the clothing of persons in the streets below. Practically all fires are preventable, originating in some act of carelessness, or through inattention to some detaii of supervision. In anrient days the fire was cherished and guarded as a priceless gift. Today it is handled heedlessly and recklessly. The invention of matches has cost the world an appalling sum in loss in flames.

The Stock Broker's Clerk

Sherlock Holmes rubbed his hands j with delight, and I stared with astonishment at our client. Pycroft went on. You may well look surprised, Dr. Watson; but it is this way: Wlien I was speaking to the other chap in London, at the time that he laughed at my not going to Mawson's, I happened to notice that his tooth was stuffed in this very identical fashion. The glint of the gold in each case caught my eye, you see. When I put that with the voice and figure being the same, and only those things altered which might be changed by a razor or a wig. I could not doubt that it was the same man. Of course you expect two brothers to bw alike, but not that they should have the same tooth stuffed in the same wav. He bowed me out, and I found

myself in the street, hardly knowing whether I was on my head or my heels. Back I went to my hotel, put my head in a basin of cold water, and tried to think it out. Why had he sent me from London to Birmingham? Why had he got there before me? And whv had he written a letter from him

self to himself? It was altogether 100 much for me, and I could make no sense of it. And then suddenly it

struck me that what was dark to met Holmes.

offices of the Franco-Midland Hardware Company, Limited, would be a rather interesting experience for both of us." "But how can we do it?" I asked. "Oh, easily enough," said Hall Pycroft, cheerily. "You are two friends of mine who are in want of a billet, and what could be more natural than that I should bring you both round to the managing director?" "Quite so, of course," said Holmes. "I should like to have a look at the

gentleman, and see if I can make anything of his litle game. What qualities have you, my friend, whilch would make your services so valuable, or is it possible that" He began biting his nails and staring blankly out of the window, and we hardly drew an

other word from him until we were in New street. At seven o'clock that evening we were walking, the three of us, down Corporation street to the company's offices. "It is no use our being at all before our time," said our client. "He only

comes there to see me, apparently, for the place is deserted up to the very hour he names." "That is suggestive," remarked

he bought one from him. Then, clutching it in his hand, he vanished through a door-way. "There he goes!" cried Hall Pycroft. "These are the company's offices into which he has gone. Come with me, and I'll fix it up as easily as possible." Following his lead, we ascended five stories until we found ourselves out

side a half-opened door, at which our client tapped. A voice within bade us

enter, and we entered a bare, unfurnished room such-as Hall Pycroft had described. At the single table sat the man whom we had seen in the street, with his evening paper spread out in front of him, and as he looked up at us it seemed to me that I had never looked upon a face which bore such marks of grief, and of something beyond grief of a horror such as comes to few men In a lifetime. His brow

glistened with perspiration, his cheeks were of the dull, dead white of a fish's belly, and his eyes were wild and staring. He looked at his clerk as though he failed to recognize him, and I could see by the astonishment depicted upon our conductor's face that this was by no means the usual appearance of his employer. "You look ill, Mr. Pinner!" he exclaimed. "Yes, I am not very well," answered the other, making obvious efforts to pull himself together, and licking his dry lips before he spoke. "Who are these gentlemen whom you have brought with you?" "One is Mr. Harris, of Bermondsey,

and the other is Mr. Price, of this; town," said our clerk, glibly. "Theyi are friends of mine and gentlemen of

experience, but they have been out ot a place for some little time, and they hoped that perhaps you might find an opening for them in the company's employment." "Very possibly! very possibly!" cried Mr. Pinner with a ghastly smile. "Yes, I have no doubt that we shall be able to do something for you. What is your particular line, Mr. Harris?" "I am an accountant," said Holmes. "Ah, yes, we shall want something of the sort. And you, Mr. Price?'' "A clerk," said I. "I have every hope that the company may accommodate you. I will let you know about it as soon as we come to any conclusion. And now I beg that you will go. For God's sake leave me to myself!"

These last words were shot out of

him, as though the constraint which j lo, N. Y.

he was evidently setting upon himself had suddenly and utterly burst asunder. Holmes and I glanced at each other, and Hall Pycroft took a step towards the table. "You forget, Mr. Pinner, that I am here by appointment to receive some directions from you," said he. "Certainly, Mr. Pycroft, certainly," the other resumed in a calmer tone. "You may wait here a moment; and there Is no reason why your friends

should not wait with you. I will be I entirely at your service in three min-

utes, if I might trespass upon your patience bo far." He rose with a very courteous air, and, bowing to us, he passed out through a door at the far

ther end of the room, which be closed behind him. ,

! SLICED HAWAIIAN I

Many People Are Fried Into Bad Health With Animal Fat Animal fats, because of their low smoking point, decompose into other than their natural fatty acids and glycerin. The develop acrolein and other products irritating to the stomach and intestines.

This favors under-oxydation especially of the end products of protein digestion and stand in loco parentis to a whole hatful of trouble. Why not avoid all this? Stop the use of all animal fats in cooking and use MAZOLA instead. MAZOLA is a pure vegetable oil already fluidified and therefore more readily digested than fats that melt only at relatively high temperatures. MAZOLA stands a high degree of heat before the smoking point is reached, so it is not nearly so likely to develop acrolein or other oxydation products harmful to the digestive system. Many physicians are also recommending the liberal use of MAZOLA as a salad oil to increase heat energy in patients who are undernourished or those needing a palatable, easily assimilated protein sparing food.

One must discriminate as to fats. Unless a fat, when taken into the stomach, will melt at body temperature, it becomes an actual source of poison, the same as any other undigested food. Why not use a fat that remains a liquid at any temperature and stay away from digestive troubles ?
