Children's Skins. ■i Every now and then a child’s skin | will break out In some kind of a rash and folks think it caught the trouble at school or somewhere away, from home. | Half the time the trouble is caused [ by the use of unwholesome yellow I soaps for washing clothing. They leave the dirt in the goods and make the clothing harsh and irritatinig to the skin. I No wonder the rash breaks out. Easy Task soap is clean and white and sanh ( tary and is best for children’s clothes and yours, too. uet it at your grocer’s. Get After the Flies. With the warm days flies multiply amazingly. Now is the time to attack them and prevent the breeding of millions from the few hundreds that already exist. Perhaps the most effective method of destroying flies is by burning pyrethrum in each room. This stuns the flies and they can be swept up and burned. Flies are dangerous carriers of diss ease and an enemy of humankind. Do your part toward keeping down the i pest and improving the health of your community. .[ YELLOW CLOTHES ARE UNSIGHTLY.

CHAPTER Vl.—(Continued.) Merriam tapped his riding boot with the whip he had kept in his hand. “Yes; the war’s over,” he said, “our war. There’s been another since, but it’s preposterous to call that Spanish dress-parade and target practice war.” The two men went out together, and Major Congrieve twitted Merriam about the thoroughbred’s pedigree. “I’ll see you again before you go. Luncheon to-morrow at -the Tippecanoe Club? That is well. Good-morn-ing!” As Merriam rode out toward the street, Captain Pollock came from ooqp I of the storehouses and walked briskly across the grounds in the direction of the office. A curve in the path brought him face to face with Rodney Merriam, i who saluted him with his right hand. “Good-morning, Mr. Merriam!” and the young officer lifted his hat. Captain Pollock’s eyes followed the i houseman to the gate. “I don’t know who you are, Mr. Merriam, or what you do,” he reflected, “but the sight of that horse makes me homesick.” “He’s a nice little fellow,” Merriam was saying to himself, as he passed the gate and turned toward the city. “He’s a nice little fellow; and so was 1 his father!” i As the thoroughbred bore him rapidly back to town, Rddney Merriam several times repeated to himself abstractedly: “He’s a nice little follow! CHAPTER VII. It is no longer so very laudable for a young man to pay his way through ■ college; and Morris Leighton had done this, easily and without caring to be praised or martyrized for doing so. He had”enjoyed his college days; he had been popular with town and gown; and he had managed to get his share of undergraduate fun while leading his classes. He had helped in the college library; he had twisted the iron letterpress on the president’s correspondence late into the night; he had copied briefs for a lawyer after hours; but he had pitched for the nine and hustled for his “frat,” and he had led class rushes with ardor and success. He had now been for several years in the offices of Knight, Kittredge & Carr at Mariona, only an hour’s ride from Tippecanoe; and he still kept in touch with the college. Michael Carr fully appreciated a young man who took the law seriously and who could sit down in a court room on call mornings, when need be, and turn off a demurrer without paraphrasing it from a text-book. Mrs. Carr, too, found Morris Leighton useful, and she liked him, because he always responded unquestioningly to any summons to fill up a blank at her table. Young men-were at a premium in Mariona, as in most other places, and it was something to have one of the species, of an accommodating turn, and very presentable, within telephone range. It was through Mrs. Carr that Leighton came to be well known in Mariona; she told her friends to ask him to call, and there were now many homes besides hers that he visited. An errand to- a law firm in one of the fashionable new buildings that had lately raised the Mariona sky-line led him one afternoon past the office of his college classmate, Jack Balcomb. “J. , Arthur Balcomb” was the inscription on the door. Leighton had seen little of Balcomb for a year or more, and his friend’s name on the ground-glass door arrested his eye. Two girls were busily employed at typewriters in the anteroom, and one of them extended a blank card to Morris and asked him for his name. The girl disappeared into the inner room and came back instantly fallowed by Balcomb, who seized 'Morris’ hand, dragged him in and closed the door. “Well, old man!” Balcomb shouted. “I’m glad to see you. It’s downright pleasant to have a fellow come in occasionally and feel no temptation to take his watch.” Morris cast his eyes over the room, which was handsomely furnished. There was a good rug on the floor and the desk and table were of heavy oak; an engraving of Thomas Jefferson hung over Bg-lcomb’s desk, and on the opposite side of the room was a. table covered with financial reference books. “What is your game just now, Jack, if it isn’t impertinent? It’s hard to keep track of you. I remember very well that you started in to learn the wholesale drug business,” said Morris. “Oh, tush! don’t refer to that, as thou lovest me! That is one of the darkest pages of my life. Those people down there in South High street thought I was a jay, and they sent me : out to help the shipping clerk. Wouldn’t that jar you! Overalls —and a hand truck. I couldn’t get out of that fast enough. Then, you know, I went to Chicago and spent a year in a broker’s office, and I guess I learned a few up there. Oh, rather! They sent me into the country to sell mining stock and I made a record. They kept the printing presses going overtime to keep me supplied. Say, they got afraid of me; I was too good!” “What’s your line now? Real estate, mortgages, lending money to the door? How do you classify yourself?” “You do me a cruel wrong, Morris, a cruel wrong. You read my sign on the outer wall? Well, that’s a bluff. There’s nothing in real estate. And the loan business has all gone to the bad—people are too rich; farmers are rolling in real money and have it to lend. There was nothing for little Willie in petty brokerages. I’m scheming —promoting—and I take my slice off of everything that passes.” “That certainly sounds well. You’ve learned fast. You had an ambition to be a poet when you were in college. I think I still have a few pounds of your verses in my traps somewhere.” “And then, you remember,” Balcomb went on, in enjoyment of his own reminiscences. “I wooed the law for a

while. But I guess what I learned wouldn’t have embarrassed Chancellor Kent. I really had a client once. I didn’t see a chance of getting one any other way, so I hired him. He was a coon. I employed him for two dollars to go to the Grand Opera and buy a seat in the orchestra when Sir Henry Irving was giving “The Merchant of Venice.” He went to sleep and snored and they threw him out with rude, insolent, and angry hands after the second act; and I brought suit against the management for damages, basing'my claim on the idea that they had spurned my dusky brother on account of his race, color and previous condition of serviture. The last clause was a joke. He bad never done any work in his life, except for the State. My client got loaded on gin about the time the case came up on demurrer and gave the snap away, and I dropped out of the practice to avoid being disbarred. So here I am; and I’m glad I shook the law. I’d got tired of eating coffee and rolls at the Berlin bakery three times a day. One of the typewriter operators entered with a brisk air of business and handed a telegram to Balcomb, who tore it open nonchalently. As he read it, he tossed the crumpled envelope over his shoulder in an absentminded way. Then, to the girl, who waited with note-book and pencil in hand. “Never mind; don’t wait. I’ll dictate the' answer later. How did it work?” he asked, turning toLeighton, who had been looking over on the table. “How did what work?” “The fake. It was a fake telegram. That girl’s trained to bring in a message every time I have a caller. If the caller stays thirty minutes, it’s two messages—in other words, I’m on a fifteen-minute schedule. I tip a 'boy in the telegraph office to keep me supplied with blanks. It’s a great scheme. There’s nothing like a telegram to create the impression that your office is a seething caldron of business." “You have passed the poetry stage, beyond a doubt. But I should think the strain of keeping all this going would be wearing on your sensitive poetical nature. And it must cost something.” » “It does, but Carr keeps a whole corps of rascals to spread apple-but-ter on the Legislature corn-bread.” “You’d better sp<tk to him about it. He’d probably tell Mrs. Carr to ask you to dinner right away.” “Oh, that will come in time. I don’t expect to do everything at once. You may see me up there some time; and when you do, don’t shy off like a colt at the ch6o-choos. By the way, I’d like to be one of the bright particular stars of the Dramatic Club if you can fix it. • You remember that amateur theatricals are rather in my line.” He looked at his watch and gave the stem-key a few turns before returning it to his pocket. “You’ll have to excuse me, old man. I’ve got a date with Adams. He’s a right decent chap when you kndw how to handle him. I want to get them to finance a big apartment house scheme. I’ve got an idea for a flat that will make the town sit up and gasp.” “Don’t linger on my account, Jack. I only stopped in to see whather you kept your good spirits. I feel as’though I’d had a shower bath. Come along.” Several men were waiting to see Balcomb in the outer office and he shook hands with all of them and begged them to come again, taking care to mention that he had been called to the Central States Trust Company and had to hurry away. He called peremptorily to the passing elevator-car to wait, and as he and Leighton squeezed into it, he continued his half of an imaginary conversation in a tone that was audible to every passenger. 'T could have had those bonds, if I had wanted them; but I knew there was a cloud on them—the county was already over its legal limit. I guess those St. Louis fellows will be sorry they were so enterprising—here we are!” And then in a lower tone to Leighton: “That was for old man Dameron’s benefit. Did you see him jammed back in the corner of the car? Queer old party and as tight as a drum. When I can work off some assessable and non-interest bearing bonds on him, it’ll be easy to sell Uncle Sam’s Treasury a gold brick. They say the old man has a daughter who is finer than gold; yea, than much fine gold. I’m going to look her up, if I ever get time. You’d better come over soon and pick out an office. So long!” Leighton walked back to his office in good humor and better contented with his own lot. CHAPTER VIH. “Well, I butted in all right,” said Balcomb, cheerfully. “I suppose you’re saying to yourself that it’s another case of the unfailing Balcomb cheek.” “You’re a peach, Jack, xu£L no mistake, as I’ve said before. I I had your nerve ” “But say, they just had to have me in this show! It proves how every little thing helps as we toil onward and upward. You know I was tenor on the glee club at college, ahd you’ll remember that when we came over to town and gave that concert for the benefit of the athletic fund I was a winner, all right. Well, I’m going to throw my whole- soul into this thing “You’ll leave an aching void if you do.” “Thanks, kindly. As I was saying, I’m going to do myself and Mrs. Carr proud. .She’s one of the grandest women we ever had in this State. Mrs. Carr knows that all this woman’s suffrage business is so much Thomas Rot. She works her sisters just for fun, and they never catch on a little bit. She just has to be president of things, and she’s an ornament in the community.” T elyhtnn thanked his stars that Mrs.

Carr had discovered her tenor without his help. He and Balcomb were standing in the Carr library, where the last undress rehearsal of “Deceivers Ever” was about to begin. Leighton, who was stage manager, also sang in the chorus, which appeared in one act as foresters and in the other as soldiers. Mrs. Carr always had a reason for everything she did. Her reason for insisting that the Dramatic Club, of which she was president, should give a comic opera was thoroughly adequate, for at this -time she was exploiting a young musician who had lately appeared in Mariona, and who was not, let it be remembered, a mere instructor in vocal music, but a composer as well. He was a very agreeable young man, who wished to build up a permanent orchestra in Mariona, and Mrs. Caqr was backing this project with her accustomed' enthusiasm. Nothing could help matters forward so well as a social success for Max Schmidt. He had written an opera, which many mana, gers had declined for the reason that i •the music was too good and the book too bad. “Deceivers Ever” was the name of the work, and Mrs. Carr was preparing to produce an abridged version of it on •the night before Thanksgiving. The scene was set in Germany, and there were six men—the gay deceivers —all of them officers in The chief girl character was the daughter of a new commandant of a post, but at a ball given in his honor she changed places with her maid, and no end of confusion resulted. Mrs. Carr had urged Zelda to take the principal role, and Zelda had consented, with the un- ; derstanding that Olive Merriam was to be elected a member of the club and given a part in the opera. While Leighton and Balcomb stood talking- in the library, Herr SAmidt, in the drawing-room, lectured the rest of the company in his difficult English. He now fell upon the piano with a crash and nodded to Zelda, who began one of her solos. When this had been sung to his satisfaction, the director called for Olive and Captain Pollock. Pollock was greatly liked by the people he had begun to know in Mariona. The men about the Tippecanoe Club had the reputation of scrutinizing newcomers a little superciliously, in the way of old members of a small club, who resent the appearance of strangers at the lounging-room fireside. But Pollock fitted into places as though he had always been used to them. He told a good story or he sang a song wejl, when called on to do something at the grill-room Saturday nights. Mrs. Carr had given him one of the best parts in the opera. The young officer and Olive carried | off with great animation a dialogue in song into which Herr Schmidt had been able to get some real humor. “You haven’t told me how much you like my cousin,” said Zelda to Leighton, when he sat down by her in an interval of parley between the director i and Mrs. Carr. “I expect something nice.” “Nothing could be easier. She’s a great hit! She’s a discovery! She’s an ornament to .society!” “Humph! That sounds like sample sentences from a copy-book. A man with a reputation as an orator to sustain ought to be able to do better than that.” “Not having such a reputation ” “Not even thinking one has . ' “Oh, I’m conceited,, am I?” “I hadn’t thought of it before, but no doubt it’s true,” said Zelda, looking across the room to where Jack Balcomb was talking with his usual vivacity to a girl in the chorus whom he had never met before. He was perfectly at ease, as though leaning against grand pianos in handsome drawing-rooms and talking to pretty girls had always been his mission in life. „ Morris did not follow Zelda’s eyes; he was watching her face gravely. He had tried in many ways to please her, but she maintained an attitude toward him that was annoying, to say the least. (To be continued.) BATHING TROUBLES IN JAPAN. Unconventional Bathroom Arrangements In* Country Towns. The bath in Japanese inns was often | something of a difficulty, says a writer in the Worldwide. Once we were invited to bathe in the kitchen, where the steaming bathtub stood amidst a little group of men, who had gathered in. the room in the evening to gossip and smoke. Often the bathshed had no dow, and when it had it was not infrequently a glass one. Much as the country folk of Japan stare at foreigners, they do not, however, take advantage of these defenseless bathrooms, so that the anticipation was always worse than the event. Often at the busier inns, two people have to bathe together. I have often been invited to share the bathroom with a Japanese lady guest. To avoid this awkward necessity, Z and 1 usually went to the bathroom and it was on these occasions that our little dog proved himself so useful. It is impossible to take anything but a cotton ukata to a Japanese bath- ■ room, as there is scarcely ever a dressing room attached to the bathrooms of the country inns, and the room Itself is wet everywhere and contains neither peg nor shelf —in fact, all Japanese guests divest themselves of their garments outside-Qhe door. 'So we generally tied'our moneybag round the dog’s neck. He was a most ferocious little watchdog and never allowed anyone to enter our room in our absence without a noisy protest. Had we left him loose he would not have permitted anyone to enter without getting bitten.

For several months Mr. Buzzard had been ill and had domestic difficulties. There are eight children ranging in age from two to twenty-one years. Houghton.—Forest fires are raging all through Keeweenaw peninsula and along the railroad lines. They are fanned by western winds. The copper range railroad station at Elm River, south of Houghton, was destroyed with a large amount of money and tickets. The fire in that section is now under control. .
