When you are in need of some thing b this line DON’T FORGET THIS The Model Submarine Bb GEORGE MUNSON (Copyright. 1916. by W. G. Chapman.) The quiet innn is often deceptive. Jim Hawtrey did not know that when he made love to Elliman’s wife. Elli nmn was an inventor, and he had rent ed a cottage on a very lonely northern lake to conduct experiments with his model submarine. He had known Hawtrey long before, and invited him to pay them a visit, to cheer up his wife. Nancy Elliman was lonely. She had married her hus band four years before, and when there are no children four years is the dangerous age of marriage. Hawtrey was one of those fellows who do not understand quiet men. He was the life and soul of his club, and he started a flirtation to while away the time. But what was play to him was tragedy to poor Nancy. Her quiet, sober husband, always pottering about his boat, was a foil for the brilliant blackguard who planned to betray his home. Hawtrey soon enlisted Mrs. Elliman’s sympa thies against her husband, yet so subtly that at first she herself was un aware of the part she played. When Hawtrey brought down a deer Elliman was sent to skin it, and Haw trey took Mrs. Elliman for a row, re turning to find Elliman in a disgusting state, and his fingers bleeding from a bad cut of the knife. It was Haw trey, again, who put a dead porcupine in Elliman’s bed. And it was Haw trey who feigned illness and sent him on a ten-mile tramp through the woods to a nonexistent doctor, while he made love to Mrs. Elliman during his ab sence. That was what awakened Elliman to the part he was playing. But then r """" ' "You Know You’ve Married a Clown, Nancy." Hawtrey was in every way Elliman’s superior. He could swim and shoot better, and outpace him; and once he challenged Elliman to a boxing match and bruised his lip and black ened one eye. Elliman was thinking. He found it difficult to detach his mind from his invention. But now and again the thought of Hawtrey would recur to him in an irritating way. The cli max arrived that afternoon when he came quietly through the woods and overheard Hawtrey’s declaration. "Why do you stay with that slow coach, dear?” he was asking. “What’s simpler than to throw him over and come away with me? He doesn’t care for you. All that interests him is that boat of his.” He put his arm about her, but she re pulsed him quietly. "You know you’ve married a clown, Nancy,” went on Hawtrey remorse lessly. “Yes,” she said gravely. “But still, he’s my husband.” That was all Elliman heard, for he came slowly up the path and they saw him. But Hawtrey called mockingly in welcome, and neither suspected that Elliman had heard. “I’ve got a surprise for you both,” said Elliman the next morning. “What, a surprise?” inquired Haw trey. “Really, Elliman, your inventive ness is astounding.” “You are the life and soul of the place,” said Nancy, mockingly. “I want you two,” Elliman went on, “to come aboard my boat. She’s fin ished, and I’ll take you on a submarine cruise round the lake.” “Not if I know it,” answered Haw trey. “None of your submarines for me.” “Of course, if you are afraid,” said Elliman. “What the devil are you talking about?” demanded Hawtrey angrily, with a glance at Nancy. “Well, if you think it’s too risky you needn’t come.” “I’m not afraid of an; .uing you can plan,” sneered Hawtrey. “Shall we go, Mrs. Elliman?” "I’ll go if you want me to,” answered THE DOUGLAS ENTERPRISE, DOUGLAS, GEORGIA. Nancy, not to her husband, but to Hawtrey. ■‘l guess we may as well see the poor old duffer’s invention,” said Hawtrey, with a short laugh. Elliman led the way along the plank aboard his craft. She was a big model —just large enough to contain the three of them. They were tightly wedged, however, and had hardly room to turn round. Elliman leaped aboard and pushed off. He started the electric engine. Then he reached tip, pulled down the hatch, and bolted it. They could see nothing through the i frosted pane, and the light was very ! dim. The clattering of the engine I seemed to fill the whole boat. “Huh ! Nice sort of trip!” sneered Hawtrey. “Won’t we see more than this on the observation trip?” The peculiar look on Elliman’s face startled him. The air was very stuffy, anyhow. “Put back,” Hawtrey said angrily. “What sort of practical joke is this?” “Nancy,” said Elliman, “do you love this man? Do you wish for a divorce, or am I your husband?” “What 1” yelled Hawtrey, leaping up. “So you’ve been eavesdropping, have you, you cur? Take that hatch off in stantly or I’ll thrash you!” “If you wish to drown here, you may raise the hatch,” responded Elli man. Hawtrey sank back with a curse. Elliman was undoubtedly the master of this situation. “Hawtrey, I’m not as brilliant as you,” said Elliman. “If I were a red blooded man like you I’d challenge you to a duel—not because I want to de tain Mrs. Elliman against her will, but because it’s my duty to protect her against blnckguards like you. As it is, I’m going to offer you another sort of duel.” He picked up three objects from beside him. “Two of these are oxygen masks,” he said, “with a reservoir of oxygen in side. The third has no reservoir. The air in here will be exhausted within half an hour. Mrs. Elliman will wear one of these masks. You shall take your pick of the two others. They look exactly alike, only one is not charged. The one who picks the oxygen will win Mrs. Elliman.” “What nonsense!” yelled Hawtrey, breathing heavily. “Let us out at once, confound you!” He raised his fist threateningly, but Elliman only looked at him quietly and held out the two masks.. Nancy said not a word. Her eyes were on her hus band’s face. “Which do you choose?” asked Elli man. Hawtrey began to bluster. “Let me out!” he shouted. “I didn’t come here to fool with a lunatic. Old man,” he added, “I’m sorry for what I did. I’m sorry I’ve fooled you. It was only a joke between Mrs. Elliman and me. For God’s sake let me out,” he pleaded, clasping Elliman about the knees in his abjection. “I’ll go straight away, I swear it. I—” Elliman unbolted the hatch. A flood of daylight streamed in. As Hawtrey leaped for the entrance he saw the plank still in position and the shore within ten feet. The vessel had never moved. That was what Nancy saw as she turned to gaze at her husband wonder ingly. “Ha, ha!” laughed Hawtrey. “I guess you fooled us, slowcoach, didn’t you? Mrs. Elliman—” But in the pointing of Nancy’s fin ger there was something so imperious that Hawtrey hurried away. A minute or two later they saw him slink through the bushes, and out of their lives. And Nancy turned to her hus band. “Forgive me —forgive me!” she mur mured. ARE FACING THE INEVITABLE Churches Can't Fight Autos, But They Can Make Them of Service. To fight fire with fire is an admir able method where fire is concerned and other extinguishers fail. Why shouldn’t the application of the sys tem be serviceable in other fields? Like cures like, and there are poisons that neutralize one another, the Cleve land Plain Dealer observes. Now for the special applications. The churches, many of them, realize that the automobile is not an encour ager of church going. The allure ments of a ride through the town, or about the countryside, are hard to re sist. The automobile is responsible for many empty seats. What can bo done about it? In certain churches all they do is to lament the affliction. They can’t legislate against it; they can’t bar it from the streets. It has come to stay, no doubt, but they said the same thing of the bicycle. Anyway, the automobile is here, and it is very com fortable, and very exhilarating, and very alluring. How can these charms be met? A Philadelphia congregation thinks it can answer the question in a prac tical way. Instead of standing back and abusing the cars, it comes to the front each Sunday and marshals its automobiles and sends them out right and left with orders to gather up the parishioners and give them a free ride to church. It’s a delicate attention* and not to be lightly turned down. The congregation realizes it cnn’t fight the automobile, and so it fraternizes with them. The plan is said to work well. The plan of giving motion picture shows under church auspices is said to work well, too. And the lesson would seem to be that it is well to meet the in evitable and make the best of it. PROPER METHODS FOR KEEPING MANURE PILING MANURE WHERE THE RAIN WILL WASH OUT ITS FERTILIZ ING ELEMENTS. Stable manure should never be thrown out on a' field where it will not soon be mixed with the soil; nor should it be piled out in the open, for much of the fertility will be lost by leaching. If the manure cannot be placed on a field that is to be planted shortly, It is best to allow it to accu mulate in the stull, being careful to keep the stall dry and well littered. Corn stover, wheat, oat or rye straw, leaves, or pine straw can be used for litter. It is a good plan to use ns much SILAGE OF DIFFERENT TYPES Material Used in Construction of Silo Has No Influence on Quality of Its Contents. (By C. 11. ECKLES, Missouri Agricul tural Experiment Station.) One of the questions tlmt comes up when a new silo is to be purchased or built Is whether the material used in the construction of the silo has any Influence on the quality of the silage. The Missouri experiment station has been studying this problem for two years. Samples of silage were taken at the wall and at the center in silos of the stave, Iron, tile, Gurler, and concrete types. These samples were analyzed and the results compared. The results are given in detail in Re search Bulletin 22, recently issued. The results of the analysis showed no dif ference In any way between the silage from the different types. No one should be persuaded to base the selec tion of the silo to be used upon the statement or supposition that one type of silo makes better silage than an other. Any silo that has a tight wall that keeps out the air and is strong enough to withstand the pressure will preserve silage. If the corn has sufficient moisture when put into the silo the only thing that can interfere with the making of good silage is the admission of air ns the result of a poorly built silo or In sufficient packing at the time of filling. FINE RECIPE FOR WHITEWASH Directions Submitted By Expert of Oklahoma College—lntended for Exterior Work. In reply to a request, Dr. Charles K. Francis of the Oklahoma A. and M. College submits directions for whitewash as follows: 1. Place 02 pounds (one bushel) of quick lime in a watertight barrel or tub. Slake this by pouring on 12 gallons of hot water. Keep covered until steam ceases to rise, and stir oc casionally to prevent scorching. 2. Dissolve two pounds common salt and two pounds of zinc sulphate in two gallons of boiling water. Pour 1 into 2, add two gallons skim milk and mix thoroughly. Whitewash prepared in the manner outlined is intended for exterior work, such os fences and outside buildings, but may be used for interior work. INJURY DONE BY CHINCH BUG Sucks Juices of Corn, Wheat, Sorghum and Other Plants May Be Trapped in Ditches. The chinch bug sucks the juices of corn, wheat, sorghum and other plants of the grass family. They may be trapped In dusty ditches, if they go from wheat to corn, or In rainy weather an oil or tar barrier may be necessary. If they get to the corn, spray It with soapsuds, emulsion or tobacco solutions. The clump forming grasses by roadsides and in waste lands may be burned in late fall nnd early winter to kill chinch bugs which collect there for the winter. GOOD FEEDING IS IMPORTANT Folly to Expect Profit From Animals Not Well Kept—Good Breeding Is of Big Value. The more we study the live-stock business, especially as generally con ducted in the South, the more thor oughly we become convinced of the ut ter folly of expecting a profit from animals that are not well fed. Breed ing is of great value, but to the South, good feeding is even more Important, for good breeding without good feeding passes for naught.—The Progressive Farmer. litter as possible for bedding; for by being mixed with the animal manure it Is more readily decayed. Much waste material can be made Into good manure in this way. The stalls should be fairly deep, so that they will hold nil the manure which accumulates between times of planting the various crops. The ani mals will pack the manure by tramp ing, and it keeps best when packed. It should be moist, but not wet, and should be protected from sunshine. — Clemson College Bulletin. DANGER IN SPRAYING CELERY Carelessness in Applying Bordeaux Mixture Often Results in Leaving Copper on Stalks. A note from the United States de partment of agriculture calls attention to the fact that bordeaux mixture, made of lime and copper sulphate, is much used to prevent the destruction of the Florida celery crop by blight, and that carelessness in the application of this mixture sometimes results in leaving excessive amounts of copper on the stalks. Tills appears to be often due to the use of knapsack in stead of power spraying outfits, the former not operating at a pressure high enough to make a fine spray or mist. Accumulations of copper are indicated by a blue-green appearance of the base of the celery. As this deposit Is injurious to health, stalks on which it appears should be thoroughly scrubbed before use, after which there will be no danger of bad effects. —Sci- entific American. BRIGHT PEA HULLS AS FEED Keenly Relished by Mules and Other Kinds of Live Stock—Avoid Those Moldy or Tainted. Bright pea hulls that are not moldy may be used as a rough feed for mules and are keenly relished by all kinds of live stock. They should lie fed dry, like hay. Be careful to see that they are free from dust and dirt or other wise it will be necessary to wet them before feeding. However, no moldy or tainted cowpea hulls should be fed to mules or horses, although they tire all right in the steer ration. To lend relish to the pea hulls a lit tle salt may be sprinkled over them. If they are clean, bright and properly cured the work animals will clean them up in short order. Only a small quantity of hulls should be fed for the first two or three days until the ani mals get used to the roughage, when 8 to 10 pounds a day may be given to each mule. HABIT OF ALL-COTTON MAN Must Pull Fodder or Buy Roughage Both Very Expensive—Growing Hay is Cheaper. The all-cotton farmer must pull fod der or buy roughage, both very ex pensive. Fodder pulling has a very strong hold on the small farmer and the all-cotton farmer. There is not any better way to break away from this habit than to plant cowpeas and sor ghum for hay. As long as the farmer makes no effort to grow hay he sim ply must pull fodder or buy hay. To produce hay is cheaper than either. Cut down on some of the cotton acre age and plant enough in peas and sor ghum to furnish sufficient roughage without the fodder. Learn to grow more hay, and soon fodder pulling will lose its charm. Certainly it is a very unpleasant undertaking during the hot days of August and September. FEEDING OF MOLTING FOWLS Should Not Differ Materially From That of Laying Hens—Sunflower Seed Hastens Molt. The feeding of molting hens should not differ greatly from that of laying hens. Both eggs and feathers nre rich in nitrogen, so a food adaptable for eggs will also make feathers. How ever, the latter are richer in oil than eggs and some food of oily nature should be added to the ration to sup ply this want. It has been conclusive ly proved that a liberal amount of sun flower. flaxseed or oil meal to the ra tion makes hens molt faster and leaws them in a stronger condition and with more vitality.
