CHAPTER Xl—Continued —22— We spent two days with these people, recuperating in preparation for the stern task ahead of us. After parting with them we continued in leisurely fashion eastward, keeping well to the north of the Great Trail of the Long House and avoiding as much as possible contact with the Onondagas, Oneidas and Mohawks whose countries we traversed. Some ten days after leaving Oswego we found ourselves on the verge of that untracked domain which was roamed by the Keepers of the Doom Trail. In order to assure that our departure would be free from the observation of spies we left our last camp after dark and in two parties, Ta-wan-ne-ars and myself going in one direction and Peter in another. Our meeting place was a grove on the bank of a creek, one of the tributaries of the Mohawk. We reached it without observation, and lay in concealment most of the day, starting again in the late afternoon and moving warily through the forest, following no particular course, but addressing ourselves rather to the effacement of ail evidence of our passage. We discovered nothing, and the next day and many others went by with no better luck. Our provisions were exhausted, and we were compelled to live from hand to mouth upon such game as Ta-wan-ne-ars could snare or kill with his tomahawk —and certes he was wondrous proficient in both arts. But we kept on, bearing always eastward and quartering the country in every direction. In the very midst of this deserted wilderness we came upon what we sought. We had abandoned the headwaters of the Mohawk and were following one of its middle branches, a shallow stream with pebbly, shelving banks, wading close inshore so as not to disturb the close-growing shrubbery. We all saw it simultaneously—a tattered, weather-stained fragment of canvas, caught on a snag in the current. I fished It out with my musket barrel. “A pack-cofer,” declared Peter immediately. “And safely identified,” I added, putting my finger on an unmistakable thistle in green paint with three-quar-ters of a letter “M” above it. A mile farther on Ta-wan-ne-ars exclaimed and pointed upward to the trunk of a tall elm. Partly shaded by the foliage of the lower boughs a deep blaze was revealed in the bark. We waded ashore and investigated. | The underbrush was as thick as elsewhere, but presently Peter gave a heave with his bull-like shoulders and a whole section of grow ths, which had been laced together with vines on a backing of boughs, lifted gate-fashion. Beyond stretched a narrow alley, whose carpet of grass showed it to be seldcm traveled. “If this be not the Doom Trail ’tls worth a look none the less,” 1 whispered. Peter nodded, and slipped through the opening. I followed him, and Ta-wan-ne-ars brought up the rear. Here in tills hidden path the forest noises became remote. Even the birds ceased to twitter overhead, and the slightest stirring of the treetops made us drop to earth in expectancy of attack. Yet when the attack came we were taken completely by surprise. We were all of us alert, but the first warning that we were under observation was a green-feathered arrow which sang between Peter and me and buried Its head in the ground. “Don’dt fire, whatefer you do,” muttered Peter as he threw himself behind the nearest trunk. Ta-wan-ne-ars and I copied his example. I found myself on the right of the three. The others had selected standing trunks. I had chosen, perforce, a fallen giant which some forest wind had overthrown. I crawled along the trunk into the tangle of roots, and from there gained a clump of bushes growing about the hole from which it had been torn. The green-feathered arrow had ceased quivering and I idly followed the angle of its inclination. My eyes traveled forward —ana focused upon a hideous painted face which peered from a screen of sumac. The watcher motioned behind him, and a second painted visage glided to his side. Ta-wan-ne-ars, seeking to draw their fire, thrust out the end of his scalp-lock, and the first watcher instantly drew bow and sent an arrow that grazed the trunk. Nothing happened for a while. The Keepers waited, and Ta-wan ne-ars and Peter remained under cover. 1 surveyed the situation. From the hole in which I lay a depression of the ground ran eastward past the lair of the Cahnuagas in the sumac clump. I started to crawl up it, dragging my musket after me. but before 1 had gone a dozen feet I was obliged to abandon the gun in order to insure that my progress should be silent. When I was parallel with the sumac clump I sought shelter under a patch of wild blackberry bushes. Cautiously parting my screen —which was exceedingly thorny and painful—l was able to view the Keepers from the rear. They were ensconced in what was evidently a permanent sentry post. Beyond the sumacs was a low bark hut masked with boughs. At I heir feet were muskets. The bow s they held were employed for the purpose <>t adding mystery to their attack. I worked myself a little more in the rear of their position, then rose quietly and drew knife and tomahawk. I was an amateur at casting the ax, but this was no time for hesitation. I flung it with ail my might, and yelled the nearest apitroach I could compass to the war-whoojx

The tomahaw’k struck one of the Keepers with the flat of Its blade, felling him. The other savage turned r quickly and loosed his arrow at me, . aiming wide in his confusion. He ! Ftooped for his musket, but 1 was on , him with my knife and he was forced f to leap back and meet me on even j terms. Ta-wan-ne-ars and Peter came running between the trees, whooping , encouragement. , They arrived in the nick of time, for I the Cahnuaga 1 had tried to tomahawk was on his feet, ready to shoot me as I dodged the knifeblade of his mate. The Seneca brained this man with the butt of his gun, and Peter methodically tripped my adversary , and helped me pinion him. Ta-wan-ne-ars paused long enough to remove what was left of the scalp of his victim, then crossed to us and set his bloody knife to the throat of the survivor. “Is it to be torture or a quick death, Cahnuaga dog I” he demanded. The red eyes of the Keeper glared at him. “Death," the man spat, and strove to gnaw at the hands which held him. “Then speak truly. Who travels Doom Trail today?” “Nobody. We watch always.” Ta-wan-ne-ars pricked him slightly. “You watch always," assented the Seneca. “Yes. And who comes?” A shout echoed through the forest aisles. The red eyes of the Cahnuaga flared exultantly. His mouth opened. " Y aaa-aaaa-aaa-ah—” Ta-wan-ne-ars drove his point home, and the scream ended in an awful bubbling gasp. The shout was repeated. The crashing of branches sounded ue-IRS AN® I JC.” XW’r x ' X Mgvh j as some heavy body ran along the j Doom Trail. “Did you hear that screech?” ! siiouted a rough voice. “Yaas, Red, me hear him. He bery j much like feller feel somet'ing he not like." Peter nudged me, and Ta-wan-ne-ars seized the bow’ and quiver of one of the dead Keepers. We crouched beside the bodies behind the sumac screen. My gun was still where I had left it in the gully by which I had approached the lair of the watchers. In its stead 1 selected the musket of the man the Seneca had just knifed. A third voice was raised —in the Cahnuaga dialect, which was a corruption of the Iroquois speech and perfectly understandable to my comrades. “Qua, O Keepers who watch,” shouted the third speaker. "We acquaint you that we approach. We have with us the Red One and the Black One.” We remained quiet, but Peter possessed himself of the gun of the second Cahnuaga and placed It where he ! could reach it as soon as his own , piece was discharged.

Orange Flowers Much Used for Perfumery

A sight often to be seen in northern Italy in the distilling season is a carload of orange flowers and leaves, their strong aromatic fragrance leaving a long trail of scented air behind. One way of obtaining the perfume is by distilling the blossoms with waer, and the flowers of the bitter-fruit-•d orange tree are chiefly used for this purpose. These smell more strongly and more deliciously than those of tlie sweet-fruited “Golden Apple," as the Romans called it in the Middle ages. Like so many oilier things this deliciously fragrant oil owes its fame to the whim of fashion. About the year 1(JS0, when great ladies and their squires loved strong perfumes. It came into high favor under tlie patronage of the Princess Neroli, and Safety in Tall Buildings A geological authority who has given some special attention to earthquakes has given some consolation to the people who are employed in the very tall buildings and who have been fearful of the results in case of an earthquake. He figures it out that those in a 200-foot structure are safer than one 100 feet in height. The former is just the height to correspond with the period of rocking of the earth and therefore the structure receives tlie full force of the motion, whereas in the taller buildings this does not coincide with the swing of the earthquake, and hence it is practically Dumune from danger.

trail w’hich forked Into the one we had followed from the stream with the pebbly banks. And at this point apparently they came to the junction of the two branches. The Indian who had shouted before repeated his hail. “Them Keepers done gone away, Red," declared Tom. “Mebbe some Maquas (hostile term for Mohawks) come dis way. The Keepers chase ’em out o’ hyuh.” “ —! I’m agoin’ to find out,” returned Bolling. He trotted out of the mouth of the trail into the open space on the brink of the muskrat swamp. “Nobody here,” he called back after a casual look around. “Guess the Keepers got after somebody—or else the lazy dogs have turned in for a sleep. I’ll find out later for sure. Now you rustle them packs up, and I’ll get the dugout ready.” He dragged a canoe hodowed from a tree trunk from its hiding place in a bed of reeds, and produced two pad- i dies from the prostrate trunk of a hollow tree. But we paid scant attention to him. Our eyes were fastened upon the odd procession which emerged from the trail in obedience to his summons. First walked the negro Tom, a huge pack bowing his enormous shoulders. After the negro, in single tile, came eight Cahnuagas, each with a large pack braced on a ga-ne-kv-ua-ah, or burden frame. They carried their muskets in their hands. “We've got to hurry if we’re goin’ to get everything ferried over the swamp tonight,” grumbled Bolling. “Waall, what's bitin' you?” This question was addressed to a Cahnuaga who, in unslinging his burden frame, had chanced to see the arrow in the ground which the Keepers had shot in their first attempt to bait us. The Cahnuaga pointed silently to the green-feathered shaft. “By —1” swore Bolling with a start. “D’ye see that, Tom? Something's happened here.” Bolling glanced about him uneasily. “Tlie Keepers have gone, that's sure,” he announced. “What most likely happened was some party broke in here,, and the Keepers chased ’em." He chuckled wickedly. “Ain't no blood nor nothin’ around, so it 'pears likely the Keepers got the jump on ’em.” Ta-wan-ne-ars, who had been occupied in extracting arrows from a quiver and setting them in a row before him with points lightly thrust into the ground, now notched a shaft. “Shall we begin, brothers?” he whispered. “Hold your fire until 1 run out of arrows.” "Ja," agreed Peter. “Budt do not ! shoot Red Jack or der nigger. We will । safe them if we can.” "You can take on the negro,” I spoke up. "Leave Bolling to me." Peter looked doubtful. “He is a goodt knife-fighter,” he commenced to argue; but Ta-w an-ne-ars chose that moment to open his bombardment, and the Dutchman's remonstrance went for naught. A green arrow streaked across the grove and buried its barbed bone head in the chest of one of the Cahnuagas. The man shrieked and tore at the shaft with his hands. His companions scattered right and left. But Ta-wan-ne-ars gave them no respite. His shafts filled the air. The green arrows drove into the packs, quivered in tree trunks, pierced another unfortunate. The Cahnuagas let off a ragged volley which whistled over our heads. Ta-wan-ne-ars discharged the last of his arrows and reached for his musket. We saw two of the Indians collapse. Peter caught up his second musket j and he and Ta-wan-ne-ars shot again, j 'Twas impossible to miss. Besides j Bolling and Tom, only two of the ; enemy were left. “Knife and hatchet for the rest," said Tawan-ne-ars grimly. “Are my brothers ready?” (TO BE CONTINUED.)

There lias been contusion among botanists and laymen for centuries as to tlie identity of the true lotus of the Nile. Many have supposed that the sacred lotus of India and the sacred lotus of the Nile were the same, but they are not. The Indian lotus has a pink flower, while that of the Nile has a blue one. It was only with the identification of the ilowers used in the funeral wreaths of Karneses II and Amenhotep I that It was established that the true sacred lotus of Egypt was the blue water lily.— Chicago Daily News.

He gave much alms (4) He was respectt^l by his family. It Is the finest compliment that can be paid to a man, to have the respect of bis family. II The Supernatural Preparation for the Transition of the Gospel to the Gentiles (10:3-33). This was of divine arrangement. No barrier is too great to prevent the coming together of |»ersons whom the Lord desires to meet tn order to bring this about: 1. Two visions were given. (1) The vision of Cornelius (vv 3-8). While engaged In prayer, an angel of God announced that his prayer and alms had come before God as a me morinl, and instructed him to send to loppa sot Peter who would tel! him what to do. The angel told him that Peter lodged with Simon, a tanner, to show Cornelius that Peter was not the st ri (lest Jew. (2) The vision of Peter (vv. 9-1(5) lliis took place while Peter was praying (v 9) He saw a certain ves sei containing clean and unclean ani mals let down from heaven, and heard the command. “Rise, Peter, kill and eat.” Peter protested that he had never eaten an) unclean thing God replied.

The meeting of Cornelius and J Peter (vv 23-33). (1) Peter took six witnesses along (v. 23) He bad the good judgment to know that on a matter of so great importance. he must have witnesses. This was proven at the Jerusalem council in the consideration of the question of Ihe reception of the Gentiles into the church (11 JIS). (2) Cornelius waiting for Peter (v. 24). He called together his kinsmen and near friends. (3) Cornelius about to worship Peter (vv 25, 2G). Peter repudiated his act and pro tested that he was but a man. (4) The reciprocal explanation (vv 27-33). Peter explained to him how God had taken from him his Jewish prejudice, and asked that Cornelius stale the purpose of his having sent for him. Cornelius explains how God had appeared unto him and instructed him to ' send for Peter. 111. Peter's Sermon (vv, 34-43). 1. The introduction (vv. 34, 35).

This does not mean that I Cornelius was already in a state of ■ grace, thereby saved, but that he was eligible to hear rhe gospel and ac cept the terms of salvation. 2. His discourse (vv. 36-43). In the discourse he touches briefly upon the mission of Jesus, showing that by means of His baptism and anointing with the Holy Spirit. He was qualified tor His work as mediator. He ihen exhibited the work of Christ : (1) In Ills life (vv. 3(5-39) Il was one of beneficence. He went about doing good, even casting out demons as a proof that God was with Him (v. 38). (2) In His death (v. 39). I The Just suffered for the i njust that i He might bring us to God (I Pet. 3:18) (3) In His resurrection (vv 40.41). In this discourse is set forth: (a) The basis of salvation —the crucifixion of Christ. <h) The scope of salvation—whosoever believeth in Hirn. (c) The method of appropriating salvation —believing on Him IV. The Holy -Spirit Pouted Out (vv 44-48). This was a new Pentecost.

I Home-Grown Feed Saves Dairymen Not Difficult Matter if Crop Rotations Are Correctly Arranged. c (By F. B MORRISON. Assistant Director. Agricultural Experiment Station, University of Wisconsin.) Right now, many dairymen, who have been paying heavy feed bills month after month, are asking themselves, “Is there not some way of growing the feeds on my own farm which will make a balanced ration for my herd?” It is entirely possible for them to do this if they will plan their crop rotations right. Experiments have shown that a simple ration, made up of plenty of good ' alfalfa Kay and corn silage, with a mixture of ground corn and oats is I satisfactory for cows producing not I over about one pound of butterfat ; daily. Ground barley may be subi stituted for the ground corn. Home-Grown R; tlons Stand Test. In each of two ti ials a ration of alfalfa hay, corn silage and a concentrate mixture of equal weights of corn and oats was compared with another ration made up of the same feeds plus linseed and cottonseed meal. One mixture was fed to one group of cows and the other to another lot. the same amounts being fed in both cases. In each trial the home-grown ration maintained the yield of milk and butterfat as well as the ration to which the linseed and cottonseed meal had been added. These trials, together with the results of nutrition experiments by the agricultural chemistry department, show that when cows have plenty of choice alfalfa hay there Is no need of purchasing expensive protein-rich concentrates to keep up a fairly good production. This is because alfalfa hay Is sufficiently rich lu protein to balance the ration. For the best cows, those producing more than a pound of butterfat daily, ' it is advisable to add some proteinrich feed to the ration even when there is plenty of alfalfa hay. Soy Beans for Emergency Crop. If a farmer will have no alfalfa this summer, soy beans will prove a good I substitute. The county agent or ag- I ricultural college will tell how to get a good stand and care for the crop. Feeding experiments carried on by . the agricultural college during the last | four years have shown that soy-bean bay Is worth about three-fourths as : much as alfalfa for dairy cows, which | gives it a high rank as a dairy feed. (’lover hay is much lower In protein ■ than alfalfa, making it less suited for i an entirely home-grown ration. There- i fore, even with plenty of first-class j Hover hay and corn silage, consider- ' able protein-rich feeds such as cot- > tonseed meal, linseed meat, wheat bran or gluten feed are necessary to | balance the ration even though the , cows are not producing more than a ' pound of fat daily. I System of Brooding and Rearing Chicken Flock Proof is definite that improperly ; brooded chicks never produce as many • , eggs and never are as vigorous and ' healthy as the same quality of chicks ; I properly brooded. Poultrymen cannot safely depend on ' buying pullets of good quality each fall to replenish their flocks. They must raise their own young stock to be sure of getting the desired quality. Since the chicks must be raised by some method it ought to be by some good system of brooding and rearing the flock. If best results are to be obtained ' during the brooding season, practices adapted to the chicks and to the region they are grown in must be adopted. Adding New Blood Although promiscuous and yearly I additions of new blood is undesirable, | an occasional introduction Is advan- ' tageous where the poultryman does not have time to trap-nest his stock. Decided improvement can be made by this method if it Is known that the stock from which the blood comes is j superior to one’s own flock. The purchase of hatching eggs is one of the cheapest methods of introduction of new blood. j Agricultural Items ; Garden slogan : Weed ’em and reap. | Modern farming requires brain as well as brawn. The hoe is a mighty good machine sometimes. But it is a mighty slow wealth producer. • • • Where wheat or rye pasture can be used it cheapens the winter ration both for cows and young stock. • • • Sweet clover honey is of the highest quality. If you grow sweet clover, why not keep a few hives of bees? • * * Sweet clover is one of the best honey producing plants known. The plants bloom abundantly and bees are very fond of the nectar. • • • A silo increases the producing capacity of a farm at least 10 ]M*r cent, and will often increase its stock carrying capacity 25 per cent. • • • The Ohio state experiment station has found tomato plants that are resistant to fusarium wilt. These plants are from the Bonnj' Best variety. • • » Thinning of the rows is best done when the plants are in their second or third leaf. It disturbs them less than if left till later, and makes for stockier growth. * • • Two ounces of dry copper carbonate will treat one bushel of wheat for smut.
