The campaign was set for four days. In two days the goal had been reached and passed. But the workers would not stop. Today and} tomorrow they will strive to make the record even more im- pressive.

' EE AN RE REDON ee EEO 7 RET ? A BONUS LIKELY ' “Passage of a soldier bonus by the national congress is extremely more probable since the.election than before. In the last election Illinois, Iowa, Okldhoma, Kansas, Montana | and-California voted a bonus —or adjusted compensation — : to men in service in the World‘War. This brings the total of states which have enacted soldier bonus laws to 27, or a ; majority. President Harding has declared himself in favor of the soldier bonus in principle, his objection in the past | kaving been that an improper. method was provided for rais- . ing the necessary funds.’ There is a suggestion: made in| Washington that the soldier bonus be made a 50-50 measure—! | tke government to pay half if the state pays half. The } remark of former Commander MacNider of the American Legion after the recent executive veto, that the soldier bonus | fight has just begun would appear to have been well founded, | for so far ds sentiment may be judged in the recent elections it was deciedly favorable to the demands of the former serv- , ice-man. ‘ “MOONSHINE” a The country’s best “moonshine” liquor is made aroung Peoria, Ill, according to John W. Fonner, governme chemist. He should know, having analyzed nearly 26,0 samples of “white mule” in the last few years. | Even at that, Peoria’s “moonshine” is a poison. Custoni-| rs of bootleggers should remember this: All whiskey is| “moonshine” in the raw state, before years of aging in wood.! In the old days it took a very unscrupulous bartender to sell/ “green whiskey,” even triple-distilled. Seven-year-old was} the safety line. ; Fonner, says the reason the best “moonshine” liquor is} made around Peoria, Ill., is because that section had so many big=distilleries before/prohibition. | Distilleries, most of them ,have shut down. But the art | of making liquor lives on-as part of community knowledge.) others of far greater merit have) ahrough succeeding generations it has become almost here- ditary. Possibly a few generations will produce some excellent! home-brewers in our community. But present samples make! this extremely doubtful. Liquor-making marches to join the lost arts. i FREAK ey el The body of a male infant, imperfectly formed but recog- | nizable, is found in a sort of sack inside the abdomen of a! man dead in Springfiled, Mass, Dr. Schillander, who per-! formed the autopsy, says the infant probably had been there! since the man’s birth.

Guy Lewis of McKenzie. Rev. Lewis is the pastor of the M. E. church at that plqce but worked at the printing trade for 18 years be- fore entering the ministry. He will, for the present do job work, etc., for his brother members or local) parties that have any work to be done during his spare hours, and may at a later date decide to start a newspaper.—Pingree Patriot. IMPENDING DANGER Regardless of the political affili- ations the average North Dakota voter may claim he cannot help but be impressed with the cise in which an initiated law may be put across‘in the state. This is a vici- ous practice and should be abrupt- ly halted. : Not an election has passed since the league first came into power in jthe state but what one or more} initiated laws or constitutional {amendments have been placed on| | the \ballot to befuddle the voter.| Too often the voter marks his bal- lot without knowing the purpose of the law or amendnient, placed be- fore him. He marks it/beeause the independents, tell him ‘it’ is right and the league tells him it is wrong and vice versa. He marks it with- lout first considering the effect it may have upon the state or the wel- fare of its people. Because of this vicious practice measures have been put across because they were initiated ‘by the majority while failed: because they -were proposed by the minority.: The fact of the matter is that under the present system it is too easy to amend the constitution of the state and to jchange the laws on the statute, bocks.—Dickinson Press, LADY ASTOR AND OTHERS Lady Astor has come out on top ff, fight .of Plymouth voters for and against her return to the British Parliament. Some of the men commentators, attribute her victory to her personality—a very re thi in s her ‘native land and adopted ‘home. ady Astor doesn’t em io think her loveliness or graciousness had much to do with determining the result. She pre- form on which she ran.

It jis a fair statement, perhaps, to, say |that Miss Allery who has eon | serving on tHe bench of the com- mon pleas court,in Cuyahoga coun- ty (Cleveland) ,has been made the recipient of the highest poliical honor ever conferred in this coun-; jtry on a woman. Her further | judicial career is bound to be of great interest to the whole country. As a jurist Miss Allen is not Ikely to ‘be subject to the partisag banter- jing that a woman repreésentative in |Congress encounters. ‘She may; ‘show that women are better fitted “for the.bench than for legislative halls, but it will not follow, if she disclose a nice sense of right and equity and impartiality, that wo- ;men 2s a class are, so endowed. | Being a good judge id more a mat- ter of mentality, temperament and learnedness in the law than of sex. —Minneapolis Tribune.

An Arab in a white burnoose was pushing the gate. gently open. He was stooping over, and carried the dagger bayonet of a German rifle in his lean,-brown hand. Behind him was a black face, and a blue caftan after that. It_is the strength of England in the East to act first and masterfully. The man knew what this furtive en- tering meant, what the boom of the gun meant, and he hesitated. no fraction of a moment. “Keep inside,” he said, and he went-out of the room and down the steps.— In the hall he looked about an ir- stant, as for a weapon. There was none, but on a.rack by the door with crops and walking sticks, there was a heavy dog whip with a long | Plaited lash.

And a moment later the whole evil- featured troop went crowding ! through the gate like jackals. = { He shot the bolts and made the gate fast. Then he felt a hand \t {slipped through. his arm, and the it) girl was beside"him. Her face was n. 1 full of color. Thére was something soft’ and fiery in the pose of the} head, the ‘chin thrust out, and the} teeth set on the velvet underlip. “It was fine!'

And he wanted to take her in his arms and ¢lutch her to his mouth, He felt, in a sort of panic, that in a moment his head would go. | “They were only a pack of dogs,” ! ‘he said. Words seemed to steady him. Then, far out in the city, he heard the cackle of a machine gun, and he got himself in hand. “We must /see what this thing | means,” he said. “How does one go up?” and he indicated the housetop She pointed out the way, her hand e/on his arm, now with a firm hold, now. sliding along the sleeve. And, ! on’ the stair, step by step as: they | went up, the man felt this soft, | caressing hand fingering his heart. | On the housetop the soldier under- | stood. Islam had risen and her i jnumerable hordes, swarming’ like | |vermin, held the city. The. whole desert had entered under pretense jof honor to the sacred carpet. The procession had been cunning- ly delayed, and the English ~regi- ments, separated by the crowds of | people, were being cut to piec | Suddenly wedged in, they were \the ‘mercy of the Arab knife. |. The city was a pot of sound. The {mah saw instantly that the regi- jments were lost. He looked out ; southward, toward the citadel, and junder his eyes there leaped up a long crimson blur and, above the in- |numerable scents of Cairo, he caught |the smell of fire. Moreover, the na- |tive regiments had gone over to iIslam; they were forming here and |there under the green crescent in |perfect order. | |. The man stood motionless, every | muscle tense, his face like-iron. The | fingers of England were: slipping | | off of Egypt! ns | Then a cool, firm hand entered his jown. He looked down and, all at |once, as by some sorcery, the white | tity with its hell of sounds became a| |thing unreal. He saw only the girl} | who stood beside him, straight,'slim, jlithe, and beautiful’ as Naiad, her \dark hair banked around her face. 'He noted every detail of her—her jlong lashes, her exquisite mouth. |And the most mysterious, the most jirresistible impulse in the world seized him. He turned _ swiftly, caught her up in his arms, and kissed her. As their lips met, the girl's arms went out around him. Her warm ody seemed to melt into his own, to become a part of him, of every nerve, of every blood drop, of every fragment of his flesh and her voice, |broken with kisses, seemed to mur- mur in his heart. “ “Oh, my love! I shall be with you always! “You came an ugly cropper, Sir Henry,” said the big surgeon; “been unconscious until we got the bone ap.” ) The man looked about him. He} was in the English hospital.
