Novelettes
five you that opportunity. Just
series of eight tories each complete
in itself, showing how the other half
of the world lives.
You may net have given much
thought to the little apprentice rail
liner whe delivers a hat; t the girl
selling odds and ends in a department
store basement; to the gymnast who
nightly performs a dangerous act in
theater that he and bis family may
have clothes and food.
Such lives are too commonplace to
suggest much of the romantic or the
interesting. Yet to such come the
greatest problems and the necessity
for prompt, momentous decisions. To
them love, either with happiness or
the keenest of heart trials. They
are susceptible to the same affec
tions, hates, vanities and ambitions
as actuate the remainder of the
world.
Let Fannie Ilurst, a master in ex
tracting great stories from humble
material, tell you about them. We
shall print this series of novelettes in
this paper.

for Them!

until they died, then turned to the

The kitchen clock ticked with ex

The recently occupied carpet rocker
and her own low chair were drawn
toward the room In the casual attitude
of en tetea-tete. She dragged them
back Into place. The swinging lamp
she detached from Its bracket and,
holding It high above her head so that

with a great spurt of energy she fell

A neighbor's dog hayed to the moon
as It rose. The spring air took on
the nip of late evening and came In
boldly through the window. After s
while a velvet and thick-napped si
lence completely closed her la, and
when she rose from her stiff knees
the moon had got high. She could see
it from the window.
At ten o'clock she made a careful
tour of the house. Memories like wild
flowers sprang out from every corner.
A steamer chair, bared of Its pniows
and folded against the kitchen wall,
set her to trembling. Tears would
come. She dried them on her sleeve.
Her own .room stripped of Its tittle
trappings took on suddenly the dol-lar-a-day
formality of a hotel room;
the cold, cavernous formality which
betrays its shifting world by no more
than an occasional hairpin left rusting
In an empty drawer; a screw-top flask
gathering dust la the webby recesses
of si closet shelf.
She barred the front latch and,
batte-d and gloved, tip-toed through
the kitchen And out of doors, folding
over tike grmn shuttrs, springing the
ttolt In the woodshed, rattling the cel
lar windows. On tho front lawn,
wtiiteued with moonltght, the Iliac

lawn it stood like a bulgy phantom.
For a while she hung on tha white
picket fence, straining her eyes to
ward the lights of the town. She
fell to crying silently. The moon-faced,
nioon-colored tower cloek boomed

A train whistle hallooed straight up

eyes still probing the shadowed walk

From the depth of the bordered
walk came the faint march of foot

presently, without turning her head,
through the bracken and tlmberland

THE END.
THE PARSON'S CORNER
By Rev. B. J. Mirort, Pastor of
the First Baptist Church, Alliance
REFORMERS OR PERFORMERS?
The other day a man came over to
the parsonage and wanted the writer
to fall in line with a plan laid out y
the organization which he represented,
regardless of whether the evils he pro
fessed to fight existed in Alliance and
Box Butte county or not.
Now, we do not object to falling in
line with any real progressive reforms,
but we do resent having every Tom,
Dick, and Harry running in on us with
out warning, and asking us to set
aside our plan of work in order to ac
comodate this and that reformer. It
seems that the land is very alive with
reformers and wanting performers.
These reformers are ever tryinr to en
act thi? or that law, and revising this
or that, or repealing this or that. They
do not give you a chance to think any
of their pet reforms over, but swoop
down on you without any announce
ment, and feel offended if you do not
fall in line without asking questions-
It seems that 90 per cent of the peo
ple of this world are trvina: to reform
the other 10 per cent. That this world
needs improvement, no one has any
doubt, but these cut and dried
programs, prepared in an atmosphere
wholly different from local conditions,
and by men and women who profess
to know more of the needs of your
town than you do, although they were
in it but twenty minutes, are of doubt
ful value.
In fact, our experience has been
that practically all reforms that have
ever been successful in the cities where
we have lived have been fostered by
local men. If the local men do not
know the need of a town, and how to
provide that need, then we doubt
whether outsiders can put it across.
So many of these non-resident reform
ers put on an air of authority and
holy indignation if you dare ask the
why of things.
Again, let me say we do rot object
to co-operation in reforms with local
organizations, but we do ouestion the
risrht of an outsider insisting that we
set aside plans that perhaps we have
made for specific needs, and have
them all knocked into a cocked hat to
accomodate some one who wants to pet
before the public. Why don't these
men who have the intersct of their
community at heart, at least notify us
that they are on the way, thus givi -"
ns at least a chance to prepare for
tiem?
The. writer has made it a habit to
never allow his plans to be set aside
even for the representatives of his own
denomination, unless he is at least
notified a reasonable time before they
come. If they come unannounced, they
take what we see fit t6 give them; if
they have made a reasonable prepera
tion they are given the floor.
Again, we maintain that local re-
fnnno fart K lnn0 hpt b local men.
Recently one of these reformers so cal
led said that "CO per cent oi tne gins
who go wrong, go wrong through the
moving picture Fhows." Well it may
I m, but we doubt it; in fact, do not
knlio,. it Ttipppfnre he urtred we
should make a drive against the pic-
. a M 1 i A
tures. His only piea tor xne siaiemem
was that the dim light encourages
voung people to spoon in the dark.
This may be in some cases, but we dare
so., tv,nt u-oro nhlp to iudcre from
reliable facts we would find that this
is not the case. We will not be drag-

Break colds with vapors
The favored treatment now is a salve rubbed
on, that ive8 off penetrating, healing fumes.
Try the vaporizing treatment
for colds Vicks VapoRub.
At the first sign of a cold, ap
ply Vicks over throat and chest.
Rub well in. Lay on a flannel
cloth. Apply again at night
and arrange the bedclothes like
a funnel, so that the vapors,
released by the body heat, will
be freely inhaled.
This is the treatment favored
today by doctors and nurses for
colds, bronchitis, tonsilitis,
Just rub it on and
breathe in the vapor
god into such a non-essential reform
movement. That there are evils con
nected with moving pictures, we will
not deny, but we do deny that they
are with the pictures, but with the
folks' tendency who tro there. If thev
have evil design, they will find it, if
nut they will not.
I. personally, do not anmove Sun
day pictures, but I shall not try to do
away with them for this cause alone.
We attend occasionally, and we have
wutched for these so-called indecent
acts, but found none so far.
Now. I am not savin? that the nic-
tures are the sonum-bonum of life, out
I do deny that as they are conducted
in this town they are conducive to im
morality. In Omaha perhaps they are
so, I know not. Before we attack any
local institution we want to see the
infraction of morals, and be certain
that we shall not base our case upon
hearsay.
We have received invitations to at
tend dances. Some day or evening, we
will, but it will be for the purpose of
getting an exact view or the exact
condition of things, and with the idea
of suggesting remedies, or perhaps to
sugpest sending the victim to the
orpiit hevonri because he is bevond
cure. Who knows? Let us have more
performers and less reformers. lt us,
Alliance people, reform conditions In
Alliance and not call on outsiders
who know little or nothing of local
conditions. Performing, not reforming,
is the great need.

Old Marriage Cuotoms.
The custom of sprinkling grain tip.
on the bridal pslr was In enrly use
among the Semitic peoples. With them
grain was a symbol of frultfulress,
and the Jews considered fruit fulness
In marriage the greatest blessing that
could be grunted them. In ancient
Persia In Tnliniidlc times fruits and
flowers were strewn In the path of
the pair, and they were showered with
barley, which had been planted In
S pot shortly before the wedding. In
Englnnd the use of wheat at marriages
continued for many centuries, and un
der the Tudor kings brides bore
wheat sheaves on their heads, the
grain was scattered over Ihem and
garlands made of wheat, finely gilded,
were carried by the chief maidens of
the district In ti e hrhle's procession
to the church. The custom of seat
terlng grain over bridal couples was
also observed or. the continent of Eu

money makes the world go round, it
