The new governor of a western

of lassitude and dudlshness.
The two sons and the father were
Id the library one night and the name
of a prizefight referee came Into the
conversation. The 'rah-'rah boy had
been sitting by, twiddling his thumbs,
but hlg ears pricked up at the man's
name and he drawled: "I rather like
that chap. He's all right."
"What do you know about him?"
the other brother asked, rather con
temptuously. "Oh, he gave tue a shade the best

"Gave you the best of It?" both
father and brother shouted.

CHILDREN AFFECTED
By Mother's Food and Drink.
Many babies have been launched
Into life with constitutions weukened
by disease taken In with their moth

ful as to the food they use while nurs
ing their babes.
The experience of a Kansas City
mother Is a case In point:
"I was a great coffee drinker from a
child, and thought I could not do with
out It But I found at last It was do
ing me barm. Kor years I had been
troubled with dizziness, spots before
my eyes and pain In my heart, to
which was added, two years later, a
chronic sour stomach.
"The baby was born 7 months ago,
and almost from the beginning, It, too.
suffered from sour stomach. She was
taking it from me!
"In my distress I consulted a friend
of more experience and she told me
to quit coffee, that coffee did not
make good milk. I have aince ascer
tained that it really dries up the milk
"80, I quit coffee and tried tea and
at last cocoa. Dut they did not agree
with me. Then I turned to Postum
with the happiest results. It proved
to be the very thing I needed. It not
only agreed perfectly with baby and
myself, but It Increased the flow of
my milk.
"My husband then quit coffee and
used Postum and quickly got well of
the dyspepsia with which be had been
troubled. I no longer suffer from the
dlsdness, blind spells, pain In my
heart or eour stomach.
"Now we all drink Postum from nfy

CHAPTER XV. Continue.
"There's a line of the South Caro
lina militia crawling through the
woods toward Raccoon creek They
Insist that It's a practice skirmish and
that they've come over here h'-cause
the landscape Is naturally adapted to
their purposes."
"It's awfully nice of them to like
my scenery. You'd better send your
best man out to meet Col. Cillingwa
ter of the North Carolina militia, and
tell him to march all his troops Into
the estate by the north gates, and to
be in a hurry. Tell hini- tell blind
Ciov. Iiangerfleld Is anxious to have
the stalT present In full uniform at a
grand ball at Ardsley tonight."
Ardmore rode off alone toward Rac
coon creek to catch a view of the
enemy. How far would (irlswold go?
Ardmore could go as far as Orls
wohl; yet he was puzzled to know
why tirlswold was in the field at all.
These reflections carried him far to
ward Raccoon (-reek, and when ho had
reached that tortuous stream be dis
mounted and tied his horse, the more
freely to examine the frontier. liy
Jumping from boulder to boulder he
crossed the turbulent tide and gained
the other side with a sense of enter
ing the enemy's country.
"Now," he muttered, "1 am in South
arollna."
He drew out his map and held It
against a tree the better to study it,
reassuring himself that his own prop-
rty line embraced several sections of
the forest on the south side of the
state boundary.
"If Grlssy shoots me, it will be on
my own land," he said aloud.
He cautiously followed the stream
until, several hundred yards farther 1
on, and overhanging the creek, he
came upon the log cabin In which lllg
Paul had reported the presence of a
ghost. Paul's story bad not Inter
ested him particularly, but now that
he was In the neighborhood he re
solved to visit the cabin and learn If
possible how ghosts amuse themselves
by day. He had thrust a revolver Into
his pocket before leaving the house
and while he had no Idea that ghosts
may be shot, he now made sure that
the weapon was In good order. As he
sat on a log slipping the cylinder
through IiIb fingers he heard whis
tling farther along the creek, followed
quickly by the snapping of twigs un
der a heavy tread, and a moment later
a tall, slender man broke Into view.
The stranger was dressed like a
countryman, but be was unmistakably
not of the Ardsley force of workmen,
for these wore a rough sort of uni
form. Ills hands were thrust careless
ly Into the side pockets of a gray
Jeans coat. They were thrust In deep,
so that the coat sagged at the pockets.
His trousers were turned up from a
pair of rough shoes and he wore a
gray flannel shirt, the collar of which
was guiltless of a tie. lie was smooth
shaven, and carried in his mouth a
short pipe, which he paused to relight
when about a dozen yards from Ard
more. Then, as he held the lighted
match uhove the pipe bowl for an in
stant to make sure his tobacco was
burning, Ardmore Jumped up and cov
ered him with the pistol.
"I beg your pardon," said the mas
ter of Ardsley, "but you're my pris
oner!" The stranger shook the flame out
of thy match stick carefully and threw
it away before turning toward his
captor.
"Young man," he said with perfect
self possession, "don't fool with that
gun, It might go off."
His drawl was characteristic of the
region; his tone was one of amused
tolerance. Ardmore was short of
stature, and his knickerbockers,
leggings ami Norfolk jacket were
not wholly consonant with the re
volver, which, however, he leveled
very steadily at the stranger's head.
"You are an intruder on my proper
ty, said the master of Ardsley, "and
unless I m much mistaken you have
been playing ghost in that cabin. I've
beard about you. Your gang has been
cutting off my timber about long
enough, and this game of playing
ghost to scan' my men won't do."
"Stealing your timber?" And the
stranger was clearly surprised He
held his pipe in his hand with bis
thumb over the bowl and seemed to
take a more serious interest In bis
captor.
"And now," continued Ardmore,
"I'm tired of having tills end of the
country run by the Applewelghts, and
their disreputable gang, so I'm going
to lock you up."
The stranger turned toward the
cabin, one corner of which was plain
ly visible, and shrugged his shoulders.
"I have nothing to do with the Ap
plewelghts, and 1 assure you I am not
a timber thief."
"Then you must be the one who has
lifted a few steers out of luy herd. It
makes no difference Just what branch
of the business you are engaged In,
for we're picking up all the gang and
you've got to come along with me."
The captive showed signs of anger
tor the first time. His face flushed,
Ml
and he took a step toward Ardmore,
who Immediately throw up the revol
ver so tliat It pointed at the man's
head.
"Stop right there! We've got old
man Applewelght, no you've lost your
leader, and I tell you the Jin's up.
We'll have you all in Jail before an
other .1 hours has pawned."
"I Judge from the tone of your re
mark that you nre Ardmore, the own
er if Ardsley. Am 1 light?"
"You are quite riKht And yon nre
a member of a disreputable gan of
outlaws that has been brltiRiiiK Khnme
upon the state of North Carolina. Now,
I want you to march straight ahead
of me. Step lively now!" And Ard
more flourished the pistol menaelnKlv.
"March!"
The man hesitated, ft 1 1 11 ir no hln
read defiantly, then moved slowly for- I
w ard.
"We will cross the creek light
here," he ordered; "it's a pretty jump
there from that boulder there, that
was bully! Now right along there
over the log see the trail! Good!"
It was warm and the captive was
perspiring freely. Ho moved along
do'ilely, and finding that be mani
fested no inclination to bolt, Ardmore
dropped the revolver to his side, but
with his finger on the trigger.
They soon reached a field where
some laborers were at work, and Ard
more called them to him for Instruc
tions. "Hoys, tills is one of the timber
thieves; put him In that corn crib un
til I comu back for him. The nights
are warm; tbo sky Is perfectly clear;
and you will kindly see thut he does
not lack for food."
Two of the men jumped forward and
seized Ardmore's prisoner, who now
broke forth In a torrent of wrath,
struggled vigorously.
"That's right, boys; that's light;
easy there! Now in he goes."
"You're My
A series of corn-cribs fringed the
ibid, and into one of these, from
w hich half the corn had been removed,
the prisoner was thrust Bprawilng
upon the yellow ears, and when he
rose and Hung himself round, the
door of the corn-crib slammed In his
face, lie bellowed with rage now, see
ing that his Imprisonment was a seri
ous matter, and that It seemed likely
to be prolonged Indefinitely.
"They always told uie you were a
fool," he howled, "but I didn't know
that anything as crazy s you are was
loose In the world."
"Thank you. The head of your gang
Is much more polite. He's sitting 011
his case of Chateau liizet in my wine
cellar, playing solitaire."
"Applcwelght in jour wine cellar!"
bawled the captive la astonishment.
"Certainly. 1 was afraid to lock
him in a room with bath for fear It
might give him hydrophobia; but he's
perfectly content in the wine cellar"!
"What ,iiv you going to do with 1
him?"
"I haven't decided yet Just what to
do with him. but the scoundrel un
doubledlj belongs in South Carolina,
and 1 haw- every intention of making
his own state punish him."
The prisoner leaned heavily against
his prison door and glared out upon
his jailer with a new. tierce Interest.
"I tell you I've nothing to do with
the Applewelghts! I don't want to re
veal my Identity to you, you young
beggar; but 1 demand my legal
rights."
"My dear sir," retorted Ardmore,
"you have no legal lights, for the writ
of habeas corpus doesn't go here.
You seem rather intelligent for a barn
burner and tlmlu r thief. Come now,
what Is your name?''
The prisoner gazed down upon the
imperturbable figure of his captor
through the slats of the corn crib. Ard
more returned his gaze with his most
bland and child like air. Many people
had beeu driven to the point of mad
ness by Ardmore's apparent dullness.
The prisoner realized that he must
launch a thunderbolt if he would din-

"Mr. Artlmoro, I dlallke to do It, but
your amazing conduct make it nec

and the man's manner showed real
cmbarrassmpnt.
"I knew It; I know It;" nodded Ard
more, folding bis arms across Ms
chest. "You'r either the king of Slam
or tho prince of Petosky. As either, X
salute you!"
"No!" roared the captive, beating
Impotently RKalnst th door of the
cnice with his hands. "No! I'm the
governor of South Carolina!"
This statement failed, however, to
produce tho sIlRhtest effort on Mr.
Ardr orp, who only smiled slightly, a
smll less Incredulous than disdainful.
"Oh, pshaw; that's nothing." he re
plied "I'm thp governor of North Caro

gravely lifted his hat to the prisoner
and galloped away.
While Mr. Ardmore was securing
his prisoner In the corn crib It may be
Interesting to return for a moment to
the haunted log cabin on Karcoon
creek, the Interior of which was
roughly but comfortably furnished.
Above were two small sleeping rooms,
and beside the bed In each stood a
suit-cHA and a hand-satchel. In each
room hung, on convenient books, a
loi.g, black frock-coat, a pair of trou
sers of light cloth, and a broad brim

were exactly alike.
In the room below sat a man In his
shirt slceveH, his feet on a cheap deal
table, blowing rings from a cigar. He
presented a picture of the greatest
ease and contentment, as he occasion
ally stroked his short brown beard,
or threw- up bis arms and clasped his
hands about his head or caught lazily
at the smoke rings. On the table lay
an array of playing cards and poker
chips.
"It's too good to last forever," the
lone occupant reflected aloud, stifling
a yawn, and be reached out, with
careless indifference, toward a bun

a piece of twine and drew one out
and spread it across bis knees. He
yawned again as though the thought

stamped In printer's Ink bored him Im
mensely; and then the bold head lines
that shouted at him across half a
quarter of the sheet caused him to
gasp, and his feet struck the bare

He read breathlessly the startling
story that followed the head lines
then rose and glanced anxiously at his
watch.
"Am I drunk or mad? I must find
Osborne nnd get out of this."
He leaped to the open door, and
gazed into the forest from a little
platform that commanded all sides of
the cabin. And there, to his utter
amazement, he saw men In khaki
emerging cautiously from the woods.
They were unmistakably soldiers of
some sort, 101 an oiucer was giving
sharp commands, and the line opened
out like a fan along the creek. The
observer of this maneuver mopped Ills
head with bis handkerchief as he
watched the alert movements of the
figures in khaki.
He was so absorbed that he failed
to bear stealthy steps at the rear of
the platform, but be was now rudely
aroused by two untloruicd youngsters
with S C. N. (1. 01, their caps, who
sprang upon him and bore him wiih
a crash to the puncheon floor.
"You're our prisoner!" shouted one
of them, rising when he found that

It is plainly evident to all observers
that the number of people who take
an Intelligent Interest. In house plan
ning and house building Is increasing.
fhe popular press reveals this ten
!ency very clearly. Illustrations and
descriptions of modern houses nnd
discufsions of architectural subjects
are overflowing from the technical
press, finding a place In the newspa
pers and popular magazines.
This growing Interest among the
people Is all to the good. Architecture
has suffered too long from popular Ig
norance and popular apathy. General
ly speaking, people get the kind of
architecture they like and the kind of
building they are willing to accept.
There Is enough architectural genius
and enough skilled craftsmanship In
our midst today to transform every
town and village Into n thing of beau
ty and to provide every family with a
beautiful and healthy home.
If the genius of the architect and
the nklll of the workman are unem
ployed, or are wasted on unworthy
objects, It Is becaiiFe the demand for
this beautiful architecture has not
fvt become general and Insistant. No
i 1
doubt, is Is also due to the fact that
some who appreciate and desire good
architecture have not the means to
command It. But the want of money
is secondary. The matter of primary
Importance Is that people should
have right Ideas as to what consti
tutes good architecture and sound
building, and should Insist whenever
they caase buildings to be put up
upon having only those which are
both well designed and well built.
Good Building, the First Essential.
And here, no doubt. Is a point of
danger. The popularlzlug of architect
ure Is a good thing so long as the de
mand Is for good architecture. A
great unlnstructed public demanding
"quaint" houses and "picturesque"
bungalows would get what It wants,
but the result is not likely to make
for real progress In architecture, or
for healthy conditions In the building
trade.
When the house-hunting mnn turns
with disgust from the "desirable villa
residences" to which the house agents
have directed his attention, and tried
to sell to him, and determines to build
himself a house according to bis own
and his wife's Ideas he takes a very
right and proper course, but he 1b apt

tites an architect to design him a
"picturesque" house, with nooks and
bay windows and overhanging eaves.
It Is to contain accommodations w hich
might reasonably be supplied for
$4,000, but It Is to cost not a ivenny
more than $2,000. That Is to begin at
the wrong end.
If a man's chief ambition Is that all
the landscape painters in the neigh
borhood should come and erect their
easels before his house, he does well
to concern himself primarily with
gables and nooks; but if he hold with
Bacon that "houses are built to live
In and not to look on," he will do well
to give more attention to the sound
ness of the walls and the roof and
the relative positions of dining room
nnd kitchen let the man with $2,000
to spend determine that he will have
as much good sound building ns $2,000
will buy and therewith be content. If
this means being cuntont with two sit
ting rooms Instead of the desired
three, 'or abandoning a projected In
glenook, there Is a solid consolation
in the knowledge that all the material
used In the bouse Is thoroughly sound
and has been put together in a work
manlike manner.
When the essential thing good
building Is secured, a man may find
It possible to indulge his fancies U

many matters of detail; but he shouli
be warned against too earnestly strit
Ing after the Ideal of the picturesque.
Having determined on the accommo
dation he desires and can afford, he
will be well advised to be guided In
regard to the design by his architect.
The little cottage illustrated here
with Is an example of a building
thoroughly constructed and arranged
according to the very best Ideas
for convenience; yet at the same
time some little thought has
been given to make the building at
tractive In appearance without adding
materially to Its cost.
For JI.DOO this five-room cottage
has been built, using the very best
methods of construction and finishing
the building on the Inside with oak,
birch and yellow pine.
A glance at the floor plan will show
the desirable features of Its arrange
ment The living room and dining
room are of large size and open to
gether by means of an arch opening.
The kitchen Is well away from the
rest of the house, being separated
from the dining room by the pantry,
v. arrangement which has been found
to be very satisfactory. There are
two good sized bedrooms very well
placed. The bathroom Is convenient
ly located.
The sttlc space in this cottage Is
valuable for storage purposes, and
since it 's well ventilated servos to
keep the first story cool during hot
rummer weather. The exterior Is
stded with clap-board, having band
courses and corner boards used for
ornamental effect. The cornl :e Is rath
er wide and Is of open timbered con
struction. Altogether this Is an ex
ceptionally attractive and economical
little residence for the small family.
EUROPE TAKING TO BUDDHISM
Religion of the East Is Making Rapid
Strides In the Countries of
the Occident.
Buddhism has been making great
strides In Europe for the past year.
The membership of the Buddhist so
ciety of Great Britain and Ireland Is
now counted by hundreds and branch
cb have lately been established In Liv
erpool and Edinburgh. Prof. Rhys Da
vids, the writer on Pall and Buddhist
literature, Is its president, and among
the vice-presidents Is the earl of Mex
borough. A Scottish convert to Budd
hism, who Is now a monk. In Burma,
Is shortly to start a campaign In Great
Britain, having been appointed first
resident missionary.
Great progress has also been made
by the German Buddhist society,
which has two important press organs,
In Ielpzig and Breslau. Buddhist
progagandists have been especially ac
tive lu Hungary, where five editions
of a Buddhistic catechism have been
exhausted.
For the first time In Europe an at
tempt has been made there to get
Buddhism officially recognized by the
state, so that it could be taught In the
b hools. The plan was not successful,
how ever.
In Switzerland and Italy the num
ber of adherents of the ancient orient
al faith iB also growing steadily.- At
Lugano appears the Coenobium, one
of the nioBt Important BuddhlBt publi
cations in Europe. New Buddhistic
colonies, It is announced, will shortly
be formed near Lausanne and also In
the Italian province of l.'mbria.
Relics of Stone Age.
Arthur I nosy, K. R. G. S., has re
cently completed a series of explora
tions In Yucatan which bring to light
many new facts about the stupendous
ruins which stretch through the coun
try In a chain IW) miles long.
The most amazing thing about
these ruins, according to Mr. Diosy,
Is that the people who possessed such
high architectural skill and the knowl
edge of rich and graceful decorative
arts, belonged to the stone age and
had no knowledge of metals. These
wonders in stone were carved with
film Implements and a civilization
which has Ix-en compared to that of
Egypt grew up without even the use
of bronze and Iron.

COULD NOT STAND SUFFERING
FROM SKIN ERUPTION
"I have been using Cutlcura Soap
and Cutlcura Ointment for the past
three months and I am glad to say
that they cured me of a most annoy
ing skin eruption. It began by. my no
ticing red blotches appearing on my
face and scalp. Although they were
rather disfiguring, I did not think any
thing of them until they began to get
scaly and dry and to Itch and burn
until I could not stand the suffering.
Then I began to use a different soap,
thinking that my old kind might be
hurting me, but that didn't seem to do
any good. I went to two different doo
tors out neither seemed to relieve me
any. I lost many nights' sleep In con
tinual scratching, sometimes scratch
ing till I drew the blood on my face
and head. Then I started lu to use
the Cutlcura Remedies and In two
months I was entirely relieved of that
awful pest I am so delighted over
my cure by Cutlcura Remedies that I
shall be glad to tell anybody about
It" (Signed) O. M. Macfarland, 221

Nine or Ten Deposit.
"It is expensive to learn to fly," said
Clifford Harmon at Mlneola. "Your
aeroplane corts more than $5,000. You
must pay a fee of $500 for tuition, and
you must deposit too, about 1500
more for damages. All the damage
you do to the machine you learn on
must be paid for, and your deposit
may easily be eaten up.
"I was talking one day at Nice to an
English flyer.
" 'I learned to fly in a week,' I said.
'How long did it lake you to learn?'
" 'Oh, nine or ten '
"'What!' I Interrupted. 'Not nine or
ten weeks?'
" 'No, aeroplanes,' said he."
Rattlesnakes Appear Early.
The unusually warm weather
throughout central Wyoming the last
few weeks has caused large numbers
of rattlesnakes to leave their dens and
many have been killed by ranchmen
and others. Not In the recollection of
the oldest Inhabitants have rattle
snakes appeared so early in the year.
