Bell West 4101 FRIDAY, JANUARY 14, 1921 WAVES OF THOUGHT The world may owe every man a living, but it takes a hustler to collect it. Many a man would have kept out of hot water had he stuck closer to cold water. The world may be growing better, but locksmiths keep right on making locks. Yes, Elsworth, more people squint with their brains than with their eyes. As a rule, a man doesn't know he is temperamental until he is told that he is. It's time to cross your fingers when you hear a man boasting of his good deeds. There may be 198 objects in a boy's pockets, but he knows every one that is there. People who agree to everything you say are about as entertaining as a phonograph. If a man could only see himself as his neighbors see him, he could easily see his finish. A man may forget to wind his watch, but the flight of time goes on just the same. It is perfectly proper for the thin girl to expect the dressmaker to make the most of her. The glittering words of an orator often remind us a small piece of soap can make many bubbles. An ounce of contentment is more beneficial to a woman's complexion than a pound of cosmetics. Some women look upon a husband as a money-earning convenience rather than as a domestic necessity. And He Didn't See the Joke. The subway train was swaying from side to side and the passenger who hadn't got a strap to hang onto was suffering as a consequence. Three times he landed on the lap of a stout matron, who finally lost her temper and inquired: "Here, what are you doing? What do you call yourself?" "Well," came the smiling reply, "I think I must now describe myself as a lap-lander." The joke appealed to the matron, who not only forgave him, but decided to retain his humor. She tried it first on her husband. "Yes, dear," she said, "three times he lauded on my lap, and when I asked him what he was he said he was an Eskhno." An eight-year-old Columbus boy recently asked his mother to tell him the meaning of the word "canine," which he had found while reading. The mother explained the meaning of the word, as connected with dogs, then broadened her information by telling him of the words "feline," "horne," "equine," etc., as pertaining to other animals. The youngster was duly impressed with the knowledge he had gained, and remained thoughtful for a moment, evidently turning it over in his mind. Suddenly he explained: "Oh, yes, mother, I understand! And porcupine means something about pigs, doesn't it?"—Indianapolis News. Consideration for Daddy: A six-year-old Columbus boy has been insisting, since Christmas talk began, that he must have a watch for Christmas. His mother remonstrated with him, polling out that he was rather young to have a watch. "Of course," he said. "I want you to get me other things, too, but I just must have a watch." "Well," asked his mother finally, "just why must you have a watch?" "I want a watch so when I'm in church I won't have to wake daddy up every time I want to know what time it is."—Indianapolis News. Analysis of the gunnery exercises of the American navy during the past year shows that the greatest progress toward efficiency was made by vessels of the battleship class, due to the large number of men aboard such ships and the comparative stability of the personnel. The navy department considers that battleship gunnery is at present about equal to that of foreign battleships. It is believed that next year vessels of other classes will be brought up as regards gunnery to the level of our battleships.—Scientific American. The Spotlight Scramble. "I'd kind o' like to go to an old-fashioned dance," said Farmer Corntossel. "You mean one of those affairs where the fiddler called the figures?" inquired St. Sinlin. "Yep. Wonder if we couldn't get one up? "Not a chance. You couldn't get any kind of a crowd together these days that 'ud think of allowin' one man to do all the talkin' besides beln' the instrumental soloist." White Fleas. Robert Lee Phillips, six years old, living in East Washington street, is much impressed with all he learns at school, says the Indianapolis News. The other evening he was busy cutting out "paper animals" and as he played he kept repeating to himself, "Fleas is white, fleas is white." His older brother grew tired of hearing it and said: "Where do you get that?" Very emphatically he answered: "At school. 'Mary had a little lamb; its fleas is white as snow.'" A Mistake Somewhere. "Ma, did you ever hear a rabbit bark?" "Rabbits don't bark, dear." "That's funny! My story, book says that rabbits eat cabbage and bark."—Boston Transcript. FLYING CHAFF White lies soon become solled. To win aim high and stick to it. Swift men are seldom fast friends. Dodging duty never brings success. A strong man without confidence is weak. The man who courts trouble is soon married. Man is a reasoning being—up to his limitations. Many a college owes its fame to its football team. A prayer that is long drawn out in apt to be narrow. Even those who say but little may talk too much. A big head is often the result of a few small ideas. It is never too late to mend, marry or get a divorce. Picture frames are often hung because of their gilt. All family jars are not manufactured in a pottery. The man who lives to no purpose lives to a bad purpose. An orator often moves his hearers—to get up and go out. Thieves are bound to their profession by hooks of steal. To make a tall man appear short strike him for a loan. Graft is something else we cannot cure—only scold about. Life's chief compensations do not come in pay envelopes. The scorn of egotism is as barbarous as the slurs of ignorance. Be sure you are wrong before you go back and sit down. One of the things oftenest lost at sea is the sight of land. Censure from a wise man is better than approval from a fool. If the necessary work is well done, don't be too particular how. Nature sometimes stores a lot of brains behind a pretty face. Any man possesses the ability to be as big a fool as he pleases. We always feel sorry for the married man who talks in his sleep. A woman may love flattery and yet despise an awkward flatterer. It takes a clever woman to refrain from posing as a clever woman. A rolling stone gathers no moss neither does it bemoan its loss. No. Alfred, it is not the bad eggs that produce the tough chickens. Great discoveries were never made by people who traveled in crowds. What a man is and what he might be are as different as day and night. All beginnings are hard enough in a career of crime; there the end is hard. After dinner sit a while, after supper walk a mile, and if another settles—smile. As a man grows older, his feet can get plenty cold enough without taking a sleigh ride. The wisest man may always learn something from the humblest peasant.—J. P. Senn. When a widow tells a man that she has never been kissed before—well, that's the limit. Really, to know a man you should stick around until something goes wrong with him. As a rule, the padlock accomplishes more than the watchdog, and makes less fuss about it. Opportunity is like a woman; she favors those who seek her out and make the most of her. Who is the busiest man? We'll say, from all appearances, a watchmaker is. Ever see one idle? A wife never hates to ask her husband for money any worse than he hates to have her do it. Walk up to every day like a man. It may be better feed in the rack than it looks from a distance. Too many people in this world are not happy unless they are bubbling over with unhappiness. Speaking of mustaches: Many a man has more hair under his nose than he knows under his hair. KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE Robbers broke the lock of the office of the Leary Coal company, 2059 North Twelfth street, sometime Sunday night, and attempted to blow the safe, which contained books and papers of no value to anyone except the company. For the benefit of any burglar who comes burgling around the coal office, Mr. Leary had pasted a paper on the door of the safe inventorying the contents and explaining that there is no money kept there and that the combination to the safe would be found on the reverse side of the inventory. Neighbors said they heard a noise at about 2 o'clock Monday morning that sounded like someone hitting blows on a hard substance with a sledge hammer. Only four murders were committed in Kansas City, Mo, the first week of the new year. This record, while good, is not up to the standard set by Chicago and New York, and the chamber of commerce should take action. A capitalist, a Negro woman and two men who were neither capitalists nor negro women, met death at the hands of alleged robbers or otherwise. The good government club is offering a reward of $1,000 for the arrest of the murderer of the capitalist, but it is not interested in the other victims. Until January 19, applications will be received by the district secretary of the United States civil service commission, St. Louis, Mo., to fill the vacancy in position of skilled laborer at the postoffice, Kansas City, Kansas, and other places, at a salary of $1350 per year. Application blanks and further information may be secured from the secretary civil service board, postoffice building, Seventh street and Minnesota avenue. California's new and more drastic anti-alien land law, an initiative act approved at the general election last November, is now'in effect. It withdraws the three-year agricultural land leasing privilege from aliens ineligible to citizenship and seeks to close loop-holes in the original law of 1913 through which Japanese were charged with continuing to gain control of farm ladn'in this state. The diphtheria epidemic is abating, but it pays to be careful. Last Saturday night in the Elecetric theatre there were more than fifty babies and small children with hard coughs. Coughing in a crowded house, none too well ventilated, is a source of infection, physicians say.

The combination of simple harmless medicines found in Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills is especially effective in relieving pain without bad after-effects. For more than thirty-five years sufferers from headache, neuralgia, backache, toothache, sciatica and pains from other causes have found relief by taking these pills. Why don't you try them? ASK YOUR DRUGGIST Besides being a good fireman, Bob Mayer, night chief of the fire department, is one of the best performers on the piano in the city, not to be a professional. Had Bob been elected sheriff when he ran for the office, music lovers would really have broken into jail to hear him play. Robbers got $550 from the Muncie State bank last week and slugged the cashier, who is recovering in Bethany hospital. Coming back to town the robbers met a deputy sheriff, who had been informed of the robbery, but the deputy didn't know he was the man, and he escaped to the Missouri side. Two new fire trucks, ordered recently by the city, will arrive from the factory next week, according to word received by John McNarrey, chief of the fire department. Mr. Mills of the state free employment bureau says there are a lot of men out of work in Kansas City, Kansas, who are willing to do anything but kill, and they have large families and have been citizens of the city for many years.

He discovers that the car carrying him to the vessel is in charge of a young lady who wears a chauffeur's uniform. Unseen forces try to prevent them reaching the vessel. They are arrested and taken to a police station. They are released by the desk sergeant in charge when the girl impersonates the daughter of a prominent political "boss." Marchbanks attempts to pay a second chauffeur and is accused of passing counterfeit money. Finally they reach the vessel, the "Cleo." They are pursued by a tug, and Miss Person a passenger jumps overboard to join a man on the small boat. The tug is repelled with hot water. The enter the Ocos river, during the play of a secreblight, which causes Rountree to commit suicide, fearing arrest. sea and was coming straight toward us. The sun had risen and I could see that but a narrow strip of land separated us from the sea. At the peak of the little craft floated the Stars and Stripes. "What do you make of her?" I asked. "United States revenue cutter," Crawford replied lacronically. "What's she doing here, I wonder?" "If she keeps her present course she can land men and they can board us inside of an hour." tell the others to stay below." Standing there, appearing not the least perturbed, he lit a cigar and slowly made his way out. --- A few seconds later I excused myself and followed Crawford. As I passed out I turned to the Misses Rorntree and said: "Would you mind going over a list of what we must carry on our trip inland at once? Mr. Crawford and I have some things to see to about the vessel before we will know exactly when we can leave." Then I joined the mate on the bridge. Silently he pointed seaward, through an opening in the trees. A small, low craft, built, as I could see, for speed more than anything else, was about three miles out at but we will do our best. May the little animals who were the primeval seed of our race" (I think he meant the monkeys, who were beginning to wake up in the trees overhead) "drop a flower on his mound, and may the wind blow softer and the sun shine brighter because a good man lies buried here." He closed the book and directed the men to place the bodies and cover them with earth. As we were walking back to the Clen I contrived to take the arm of the elder Miss Rountree, leaving Crawford with his fiancee. They did not-return to the steamer for twenty minutes after we did. When we all sat down to breakfast, however, they placed themselves in the same positions they had occupied the night before. After drinking a cup of coffee Crawford left and went on deck. Just before I had finished my coffee, he came down again and leaned over my shoulder, disregarding the others seated around. "Don't appear to be excited, sir," he whispered, "but come on deck as soon as you can. Make haste, but "Of one of the men laying here I shall have little to say. He died at his post of duty and the Almighty has already taken him to his breast. but of the other, who has been my friend and mentor for years, I would speak at length. "Doctor Rountree had plans to evangelize the world. Had he lived succeeded there would have been no place in the world where the Bible was not known and no peoples who were not Christians because of lack of knowledge of The Christ. Some of his plans went awry at the start. He found he would have to commit a crime in the eyes of man to carry on his larger plan. He did this only after asking the Great Redeemer to forgive him.. It was fear of premature exposure and the ruin of his plan that caused him to take-that which was not given to man to take—his life. We will take up his plan, and, in our small way, try to bring it to a consummation. It will cause trouble, and worry, and work, and death, "But surely Fred hasn't any pull with the United States revenue service," I said. I was wondering if Crawford had learned anything from Miss Rountree that morning while they were coming from the burial "I hope he hasnt, but do you re-collect what that man Archibald said this morning about the doctor committing a crime to secure the means with which to "prosecute his plan of—what do you call it? Oh, yes, religionizing the world or something like that?" "Youthink—?" "He's in bad with the people who wear a little gold badge and keep their business to themselves." "Secret service officers?" "Sure." "It must have been some crime he committed if they would send a boat clear down here after him," I protested. "I read in a newspaper once about the government officers following a man around the world for the crime of embezzling ten dollars from a postoffice. I know of a secret service officer who followed a man overland from Valdez to Nome to arrest him. He had robbed a postoffice of something like fatty dollars. He was arrested in Nome after navigation closed. The officer handcuffed the man to him and for five months they were twins, joined together by steel." "You try to keep the officers here for an hour," I said. "I'll take the ladies and travel. If they arrest you, show them the doctor's grave and tell them we're gone up country and know nothing." "Depend on me," the boy said. "You'll have at least three hours' start. Can I go down and have a word with Miss Rountree before you leave?" The little steamer belched black smoke as she cut the water. Once I had hagges as it turned north, that she was not after us, but she swung around and resumed her former course as before. For three or four times she did this, and I was glad of it, for it would give us more time to get away from the Cleo. I was still watching when Crawford touched me on the shoulder. I turned. They want to see you below," he said, as he took my place on watch. There were traces of tears on the face of the younger Miss Rountree, but the face of the spinster aunt was as serene as if she had been in a Frisco drawing room, instead of inside a grounded steamer in a tropical jungle, with a crowd of revenue officers ready to pounce upon her. "Auntie is going to say with the ship." Elsie said, as I entered the cabin. "Elsie is telling the truth," the aunt averred, "and if I had any control over my niece she would stay, too. It isn't womanly for a girl to go into a jungle with a man—even a gentleman," she added quickly, "and a black negro, in search for something that may have been destroyed by now. My money purchased this steamer, and I vote we go farther down the coast, load a cargo with which to pay expenses and go back to civilization." "Mr. Crawford has told you what is going to happen?" I inquired. "Yes," said the spinster, "and as the only man aboard who has committed a crime lies out there in the jungle under four feet of earth, I say let them come." "I am going to find what we came after," Elsie said, stoutly. I could see she wanted to cry, but held back the tears. "You may lose command of the Cleo, Captain Marchbanks," the spinster warned. "Crawford is a good navigator," I said. "I've been out of a position before this." I turned to Elsie. "Get ready," I commanded. "And tell Archibald if he's not ready within ten minutes we shall leave him behind." "I am ready, Captain Marchbanks," Archibald said, as he entered the cabin. "I have compasses and the map. What else will you require?" The spinster took one parting shot. "I'm going to get the Cleo out of here as soon as possible," she said. "Archibald, you may have to walk home—and it's many miles." The black faced her. "The one who sees each sparrow fall will take care of me in Guatemala as He did in the United States," he said. "I haven't forgotten how to walk." Five minutes later we left the steamer. We passed the graves of the men we had buried that morning and went on into the jungle. When we reached a small clearing made by nature I looked back in the direction of the sea. The revenue cutter was landing a small boat and men armed with rifles were stepping ashore. Then we went on and I looked a good-bye to the old Pacific Ocean and we plunged into the jungle. Of the three Miss Rountree was the only one really dressed for the KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE walk. Archibald wore regulation civilian clothes, and in addition thereto, his clerical collar. I wore a pith helmet and at the last moment I had put on a pair of leggings. I think they belonged to Crawford. But Miss Rountree wore what I think women call bloomers, a dark waist and a pith helmet. I must say the dress became her. Her hair was done up under the helmet. Archibald carried what baggage we needed. After we got away from the vessel I relieved him of the case containing the nautical instruments. I found out afterward that this case also contained the plans and data relative to our destination. and looked at looked the m climb it and a sort of a court travel through been a desire out the sea. at ease in the brushed off m Elsie start Archibald snatched a rifle him. "I'm going over there and plained. "The on our journey We had walked perhaps an hour when Archibald, who was leading, stopped under the shade of some trees. We had left the jungle and were entering the higher ground, away from the river. We could see the volcano of Santa Marie looming up above everything. It was this volcano, for centuries inactive, that devastated a large area of Guatemala when its eruption started, and instead of the lava and ashes coming from the peak at the center it broke forth at one side of the slope of the mountain, throwing ashes for miles, and completely running thousands of acres of fine timber and numerous "fincas" or plantations. It was to this country, still covered with a layer of ashes, we seemed to be going. After we had rested the black drew forth a paper and began explaining it to me. "What we seek, Captain Marchbanks, is one league north and six leagues cast of the central peak of Santa Marie, which you see there. There is a peak the natives call little Santa Marie, but which we cannot see from here. Our objective is five leagues east of the central point of the little mountain, hidden in ashes. Now, it is possible for a man trained as a navigator, to locate such a point or place 'if it is covered with ashes and all landmarks obliterated?" "Yes," I replied, "if you are correct as to distances. It's a simple problem in geometry. And when we get there—?" "We will find what we are after," the Negro replied. "Now, there are several ways to get there. We could go to Limones and start from there, having a good road until we reached the devastated country. But that would mean certain discovery. Is there no way we can reach approximately the spot by traveling due south until we are on a line with Santa Marie and then west to where it 's located?" "If we can cross the streams and find food, there is no difficulty in navigating the country. Are there no settlements at which we can find "squamous in the sun are I, food?" "There are numerous places, but we will have to be discreet while dealing with the Indians. We will let it be known that we are naturalists, traveling in the direction of Quezaltenango, which is leagues beyond Sant a Marie. Miss Rountree is your sister; I am servant and guide." I looked at Elsie. She was listening and I thought I saw a smile wreath her lips when Archibald mentioned sister. I wondered what Crawford would say when he heard of the arrangement. We traveled until the sun rose in the sky far enough to make traveling uncomfortable, and I was just going to suggest a rest. when Archibald laid down the burden he was carrying and announced that we would camp until the sun had passed the zenith. He had carried some food and he prepared to make coffee. "If Miss Rountree does not care for coffee, don't make it for me," I told him. "If I had my choice right now I'd drink a large cool glass, of lemonade through a straw." "You make me wish I was back in civilization, Captain Marchbanks," the girl said. "Never mind the coffee, Archibald. I wonder when we will get back to where there's taxis and brigh tights and crossing policemen. I could almost hug one if I could see him now. And I wonder how they all are aboard the Cleo?" "It seems cowardly to leave them," I suggested. "Not at all, sir; not at all," Archibald said, breaking into the conversation. "It is better for a few to suffer a little discomfort than for the expedition to fail." We ate and the black composed himself for a siesta. I lay on my back and gazed at the sky for a while but could not woo sleep. Miss Rountree leaned her head against a hummock and dozed. At length I sat up and looked around. About a hundred yards away stood a larger tree than any near us. It may have been because it stood on the top of 'a small hill. I sat there and looked at it and the more I looked the more I had a desire to climb it and see if I could tell what sort of a country we would have to travel through. Again it may have been a desire to see if I could make out the sea. I, a seaman, was not at ease in the jungle. I rose and brushed off my trousers. Elsie started at my movement. Archibald snored. It would have taken a rifle shot to have disturbed him. "I'm going to climb that tall tree over there and take bearings," I explained. "They may come in handy on our journey this afternoon." "Do you care if I walk there with you?" she asked. "Not at all," I replied. "Archibald is sleeping the sleep of the just—we'll be back within a few minutes—we'll not disturb him." "All right," the girl replied, leading the way. The tree proved to be a greater distance from camp than I had anticipated and between it and where we started from was a deep gully, which we had difficulty in crossing. We reached the tree at last, however, and it was no work at all for me to shin up it until I caught the lower limbs. From there I made the top without trouble. To the west a blue haze was all I could see of the Pacific. To the south a hill obscured my view. North I could see over miles of jungle and east the ponderous peak of Santa Marie frowned down upon me. Beween it and where I stood I could see what looked like a carpet of snow, and I knew it was the volcanic ashes that had covered the surface of the countryside. At the edge of the desert of ashes I could make out the outlines of a small settlement of native grass huts. Far away, so that it looked like a miniature toy house, between the big mountain and what I took to be Santa Marie, I could see the roof of a building. On the side nearest the big mountain there was what appeared to be snow drifted to the top of the building, but on the lower side for some distance the ground was clear. It was as if a blizzard had blown the snow against the building and cleared the other side. But I knew it was ashes. The house had protected a spot from the fire of the volcanic blast. A hail from Elsie caused me to drop down a great deal more quickly than I had come up. I reached the ground in no time. "I heard someone calling," she said, "and I think Archibald has finished his siesta and is hailing us." As we went toward camp I hailed him several times, but received no reply. He was not at camp when we reached there and we waited for several ours, during which time I called at intervals. At last, when the sun had sunk below the level of the tallest trees I gave up. "Archibald said we would find a settlement of Indians before nightfall," I said. "If we wait longer we will be compelled to spend the night in the jungle, and I'm not delighted with the idea. Shail we go on? I can come back and renew the search tomorrow." "It is best," Miss Rountree replied. "Something must have happened to Archibald. He would never have left us this way of his own accord." We started in the general deirection of Santa Marie. Before we had gone half a mile the girl stopped and pointed to something white which had caught in a thorned bush. "What is that?" she asked. She was frightened and backed until she was near to me and I held her with my arm around her waist. "What is that? Poor, poor Archibald!" With one hand I held her near to me and with the other I drew the weapon she had given me aboard ship. Together we went closer to investigate. For a moment I had something of a longing to jump the whole business and go back to the Cleo, or to Porto Ocos, and ship back to Frisco on the first trump that stopped there. Rolling the events of the expedition over in my mind, it occurred to me that perhaps I might be the Jonah of the whole thing, for when Doctor Rountree picked m cup. I was something of a derelic. To go on with Miss Rountree meant, in the eyes of the Mistres Grundy, to compromise her eventually, and she was the fiancée of another man. I had about "given up the ship" when we reached the bush on which hung the white thing. I picked it up gingerly. It was the clerical collar belonging to Archibald. The button holes had been torn out. It told me but one thing: The black had met with violence while we were away from him on the trip to the lookout tree. I took a seat on the ground. I was dishartened, and wished I never had left the sea, where I was at home. Above all, and perhaps you will regard it as foolish, I wondered where I was going to sleep that night. It was now 4 o'clock and the sun had ceased penetrating the jungle. I began to feel cold, for a thin, penetrating fog had crept among the trees. "Miss Rountree," I began, "we were foolish to leave the Cleo without having a larger party along. I vote that we make ourselves as comfortable here as possible for the night. In the morning we will go back to the Cleo, enlist a few sailors in our party and come back and rescue Archibald. He's an American and I'm not going to leave him to the merey of a band of Guatemalan Indians. From what I know of these jungles, if we sleep out a few nights we'll have the fever—and they'll wait until doomsday on the Cleo for us." The girl, who, before we had found the collar, seemed badly frightened, laughed now. "I've known for a long time that sailors were cowards on land," she said, "but you are the worst. If I go back the probabilities are that I will have to remain aboard the Cleo—uncle burned his bridges behind him unless the expedition is a success. I've a few ounces of quinin to guard against possible fever and if you want to we'll camp here for the night—to go on tomorrow. Will that suit you? With the coming of the sun I'm sure your fears will vanish." WEEKLY PAYMENTS LIBERTY BONDS BOUGHT AND SOLD Credit Investment Co. Room 208.

ALL KINDS OF INSURANCE. LET US WRITE THAT NEXT. FIRE INSURANCE WE MAKE LOANS. SEE US. FRIDAY, JANUARY 14, 1921 We were in the midst of a grove of the smaller trees. I suggested that we go down the hill for perhaps a quarter of a mile to where the trees were heavier. I had an object in view in request this. Somewhere or other I had read about tropical jungles being infested by large snakes. I planned to make beds in trees for the girl and myself and there sleep in safety. We reached the larger trees and I picked two which seemed to answer my purpose. They were scarcely 20 feet apart, and I knewe we could converse easily if we felt lonesome. Then I set about to construct the beds. While I was about this, Miss Rountree busied herself with building a fire and making coffee. I think it was Sinbad the Sailor who claimed to have made a tree-bed. If he really did it, he was better at invention than I am. After half an hour's work I gave it up and constructed a sort of lean-to, in which Miss Rountree could sleep. For myself I made a bed near the door, or open side of the structure; so as to protect her against any prowling animals. We drank our coffee and regaled ourselves on such canned goods as we happened to carry. One thing that struck me forcibly was the fact that whoever had ambushed Archibald were not hungry, evidently, as were the three natives who had come aboard and left the Cleo the night before. None of the fod we carried was disturbed, nor was the package of maps and instruments. (To be continued) + Seal you buy provides added periculosis association in the fight and curable disease.
