PRECAUTIONS TAKEN AGAINST CORN BORER
WASHINGTON. March 13. The enormous value of cirn. the premier crop of the nation, has made it nect.sary fr he government to take all possible precaution to prevent further infestation from the Huro-P-an "corn borer" which is supiosed to h ive entered the country in shipments of broom corn and h:us obtained a limited foothold in the eastern part of the country. I,arce sums ar hdnu: spent in an effort to control it and a rulint: soon Is expected from th federal horticultural board as to whether a u:arantine shall t. imposed against al! i'oiein countries to prevent further entrance of stalks anil ears of lnlian ciri:. t room orn or other plants that niav brimr tiie brers.

lU'KNOS AlHi:s. March 1;:. Interchange of news between North ami South America through connection of the South American newspapers with the news agencies and newspapers of the Cnited StaU'S has brought about "a belter and more thorough feeling f commercial and "ocdal brotherhood in every nation than would have been possible in anything less than decades under other condUion.V' Don Jorge Mitre, direct. of I a Nacion. told members of the American Club of Buenos Aires, at a luncheon recently. Speaking as a prb'.isher Mr. Mitre said: "I consid r this to be one of the great missions of journalism." "After all." he asserted. "he gratet service a newspaper or a news agency can render to the country in which it is located, in particular, and to the world in general, is to spread informative items that will assist prospective investors. mTch;ints, bankers or any other persons interested in obtaining a definite and true knowledg "f conditions in a country where their future may lie." Mr. Mit re said the ideals and duties ( f the newspapers in the upper and lower halves of the western hemisphere were the sam "The m thods of newspaper making" are diil i. nt, ' he added, "and e a n these diocrenc s aio bt-comiiiK smaller and smaller."
was a hunchback, and with the crinsini; nature of his kind, tried to hide hims-elf from the world. NiKfl was on a trip to the Riviera, ami his mother hai died, which left liosalie alone in the court, which was tumbling down for lack of repair. With plenty of money at her call, and with plenty of courage, Hetty set about her work of transforming Itosalie, and buibling up the house, which soon changed from a dingy, gloomy pile, to the stately Ihiglish eountry-house it should have been. She superintended the repairing of several of the houses in the village, and one day. during her regular drive about Stornham, she went farther and visited the grounds of the Mount Dunstan estate. Mount Dunstan was almost as badly in need of help as Stornham. There was a superstition which had come down through the years that the l'arls of Mount Dunstan were cursel. and the last earl, James Hubert Saltyre. shared the dislike which hail been given his fatlu-r. CJoing through the grounds. Hetty found the man who had been the secondclass passenger on the Mauretania, aud assuming from his dress that he was the keeper, she talked to him nnd learned something of the family of Mount Dunstan. As she was goinsr. she offerel him money, when to her surprise she learned that h was th earl. More annoyed than confused. Hetty forgave him for the deception, and gradually friendship sprang up between the two houses. Then, as if to omont their friendship, the Shuttle twisted in the web of G. Seiden, th junior salesman for the Delkoff Typewriter Co. of New York, who made Mount Dunstan's acquaintance, and. learning that the daughter of Reuben S. Vanderpel was in Stornham, went to see her, in the faint hope of selling her a typewriter, and contrived to break his leq in front of Stornham Court. They carried him into the house and cared for him. and through his slangy, care-free manner, he unconsciously broke down the barrier of prejudice that surrounded Mount Dunstan. and went back to America happy in th? posses
sion of a letter to Mr. Vanderpoel, the establishment of a longed-for "territory," und the order for six typewriters which were to be sent to England. The long summer days found Uosalie very nearly restored to her former self, and perfectly contented to have Hetty there; when Nigel tired of the Riviera, and, having exhauste! his resources, returned to Stornham, there to lind the place built up and repaired. Rosalie almost free of her fear of him, and I'.etty. rich and beautiful, in full charge. No sooner did he appear than Rosy fell back into her obi timid ways, but. with a view to propitiating Betty. Nigd treated his wife with as much kindness as he could assume. Everything he did was done with the hope of making Hetty like him. until at last he found that Mount Dunstan. penniless as he was. lovel Hetty, ami. although she did not confess it. Hetty loved him. Nigel was crafty, however, and bided his time, until there came a dreadful scourge of fever, that swept the villages and terrltied the people. Mount Dunstan gave up his home as a hospital, and heedless of his own well-being, he acted as doctor, nurse, and minister, and won from everyone the love and respect that was his due; and then, as the fever was abating, he was taken ill. An awful day followed for Hetty, for they had told her of his illness, and she knew that if the worst happened they would toll the bell in the church tower. Sundown came, and with it the ominous tolling of the bell, the pitiless rotes that froze her heart, and blindly, she rode away from Stornham. trying to shut out the sound of the bell. Her
the w then had
followed her. Ho found her rud-
inc: in a little hut, and claimed ht-r for his own, and in answer to his demands, she said: "There is one who stands between us on? who tiled today." He laugh( d at her, and tried to take her in his arms, but she managed to evade him. and ran. as best she could, with her injured foot, and hid from him in a tiny clump f bushes, whispering ceaselessly, "Come you who died today you who died!" And then he came the man she thought had died, the man she loved, and who loved her. and finding her there, ami tindin: Nigel with evil in his eyes, he led her gently to the littb hut ar.d then went back to Nigel. What followed would not be cond to repeat, but Hetty heard sounds like the howling of a dog, and when Mount Dunstan finally came back to her, it was with flashing eyes and clenched fists, his broken horsewhip trailing on the ground. Then he told her how it had happened howbe had simply had a. headache, and the bell had tolled for someone else, and how, when he found she had gone, he knew that it had been for love of him. For a few months Nigel lingered, stricken with paralysis, and then the kindly weaver of the Shuttle slipped out his black thread, leaving liosy contented with her father n,nl mother, while the golden threads of the love of Betty for her mnn wove themselves in and out, forming the perfect web of happiness.
