He told me how be had blowed clean acrost Lake Erie In that there balloon. And then when he got over land agin and went to pull the cord that lets the parachute loose it wouldn't work at first. He jest natcherally drifted on into the midst of nowhere. he said miles and miles into Canada. When he lit the balloon had lost so much gas and was flying so low that the parachute didn't open out quick enough to do much floating.

So he lit hard and come near being knocked out fur good. But that wasn't the worst of It fur the exposure bad crawl ed into his lungs by the time be found a house, and he got newmonla into them also and like to of died. Whilst I was laying sick he had been sick also, only his'n lasted much longer. But he tells me he has jest struck nn Idea fur a big scheme. No little schemes go fur him any more, he says.

He wants money, real money. We left the restaurant and went along the brag street of that town. which It is nwful proud of. past where the stores stops nnd the houses begins. We come to a fine looking bouse on a corner.

"This." snys Dr. Klrby ns we walk ed by. "is the house that Jackson built, Dr. Julius Jackson, old Dr. Jack son, the man with an idea.

The idea made all the money you smell around here." 'What idea?" 'The Idea, the glorious humanitarian and philanthropic Idea, of taking the kinks nnd curls out of the bnir of the Afro-American brother," says Dr. Klrby, "nt so much per kink." This Dr. Jackson, be snys, sells what he calls Anti-Curl to the niggers. It Is to straighten out their hair so It will look like white people's hair. They is millions and millions of niggers, and every nigger hns millions and millions of kinks, and so Dr.

Jnckson has got rich. Ho must be worth or $3,000,000, Dr. Klrby says, and still a-maklng It, with more niggers grow ing up nil the time fur to have their bnir unklnked. especially mulnttoes and ynllor niggers. Dr.

Klrby snys thinking wiint a great Idea that Anti- Curl wns give him his own great idea. They is a gold mine there, he says, and Dr. Julius Jnckson has only scratched a little off the top of it, but he is going to dig deeper. "Why Is it that the Afro-American brother buys Antl-Cmi?" he asts. "Why?" I asts.

"Because." he says, "he wants to be as much like white man ns he possibly can. lie strives to burst his birth's invidious bar. Danny. They talk about progress and education for the Afro-Amorlcnn brother nnd uplift and advancement and industrial education and manual training nnd nil that sort of thing, especially we northerners. But what the Afro-American brother thinks about and dreams about and longs for nnd prnys to be when he thluks at all Is to be white.

Weil put up and sell a preparation to turn the negroes white!" That was his great idea. He was more excited over It than I ever seen him before about nnythlng. It sounded like so easy a way to get rich it made me wonder why no one had ever done It before, if it could really bo worked. I didn't believe much It could be worked. But Dr.

Klrby he snys he has begun his experiments already with arsenic. Arsenic, ho snys, will blench anything. Only he is kind of afraid of arsenic too. If ho could only get hold of some thing that didn't cost much and that would whiten them up fur a little while, he snys. It wouldn't make no difference If they did get blnck agin This here Anti-Curl stuff works like that it takes the kinks out fur a little whllv and they come bnck agin.

But that don't seem to hurt the sale none. It only calls fur more of Dr. Jackson's medicine. The doctor takes me around to the place he boards at nnd shows me a nigger waiter bo has been experimenting on. He had paid the nigger's fine In a police court fur slashing another nigger some with a knife nnd kept him from going into the chnln gang.

So the nigger agreed he could use his bide to different kinds of medicines on He was a velvety looking, chocolate colored kind of nigger to start with and the best Dr. Klrby had been able to do so fur wns to make a few little liver colored spots come on to him. But It was making the nigger sick, and the doctor was afraid to go too fur with It, fur Sam might die and we would be nt the expense of another nigger. reroxlde or hldergln hnln even phased him. Nor a lot of other things we tried on to him.

Which he flnnlly struck It I don't exactly know what she had in her. but she was a mixture of some kind. The only trouble with her wns she didn't work equi nnd even left Snm's face looking peeled and spotty in places. But still in them spots Sam was six shades lighter. The doctor says that Is Jest what he wants that there pass-lng-on-to-the-next -cage we have the spotted-glrocutus-look, as he calls It The chocolate brown and the lighter spots side by side, he snys.

Dr. Jackson he looks Sam over very thoughtful, and he snys: "Yes, it will do the work well enough. I can see that But will it sell?" Doctor Klrby makes him quite a speech. I never henrn him make a better one. Dr.

Jnckson. he listens very calm, with his thumbs in the arm holes of his vest and moving his eye brows up and down like he enjoyed it. But. he jjop't get excited none. Finai- Suffragettes formance of star music hall artists.

The favored "stars" are David Devant, the well known illusionist; George Graves and company in a sketch "Koffo of Bond-street;" Neil Kenyon (Harry Lauder's most dangerous rival), George Form-by, the Lancashire comedian; Tom Edwards, ventriloquist, and a musical dancing party. The earl is en- tertaining a select house party, the names of the guests having been submitted to, and sanctioned by the king and queen. THE BEACH Perfect weather, good management and good luck combined made the Independence Day festivities the 4th and 5th at the beach the most thoroughly enjoyable celebration of its kind in the history of the Casino. The largest and best behaved crowd that has ever gathered on Santa Cruz' matchless marine pleasure ground thronged the seashore all day long, disported in the surf and enjoyed the tuneful music of the band and the Casino's numerous amusement features.

Faraola Brothers' launches were kept busy all day carrying visitors to the war vessels, the presence of which added a feature of great in terest to the occasion and to the scenic effect of the harbor. Captain Morrow's fine schooner-yacht Seafarer dropped anchor opposite the Casino on the Fourth, joining the smart little flotilla of vessels now In port. The plunge has been so popular during the past three days that several hundred bathers of the mascul-Ing gender had to be content with open air dressing accommodations on the roof of the building, and the plunge was so well patronized yesterday and Saturday that a waiting line of bathers extended from the entrance to the natatorium to the eastern end of the collonade.

"It seems a pity that such a beautiful harbor should be without one. If there were shel tered anchoring ground here," he add- ed, "I would keep my yacht here all the year; and many other yachts men would do the same." Captain Morrow is a leader in yachting 'circles around San Francisco bay.

Elaborate pre cautions had been taken by Scotland Yard to guard against suffragette out rages when King George and Queen left London today on their official visit to the manufacturing districts of Lancashire. Euston Station was swarming with detectives and only a few privileged ticketholders were allowed on the royal departure plat form, while detectives and plain clothes police officers patrolled the whole of the 190 miles of railroad track to Warrington, where their ma- estics alighted in order to drive to Knowsley hall, the residence of the earl of Derby whose guest they will be during the next week or ten days. True to his reputation at "the king who wants to see things," King George will cover some two hundred miles of the busiest manufacturing district of Lancashire, visiting the importnnt towns of Widnes, St.

Helens, South- port, Preston, Blackpool, Accrington, Rochdale, Burnle, Blackburn, TSolton and other neighboring indus tries of the district, and today the fac tory hands gave their majesties a rousing welcome to the north. Knowsley hall, the magnificent res idence of the earl of Derby, Is very central for the purpose of the visit, but In addition to being one of the largest landowners in Lancashire, the earl and his countess are personal friends of the king and queen, and it was for this reason that their majesties made Knowsley their headquarters. As a relief from the strenuous round of visits before them, the earl has arranged numerous entertain-ments for their majesties, one of the most interesting being a special per- ly siiys lie will undertake to show that it will sell mo and him will make a trip down into the blnck country ourselves and show what can be done with it and take Snm ulong fur nn object lesson. Well, they wns a lot of rng chewing. Dr.

Jnckson (Jon't warm up none, and he asts million questions like how much it costs a bottle to make it, and what was our Idea how much it orter sell fur. He snys filially If we can sell ll Ul tIiiiu na will nut aitmu liuuinv turn lr Only, ho says, they will be a stock company, nnd he will have to have 51 per cent of the stock or he won't put no money iMo it. He says If things go well he will let Dr. Klrby be manager of that compnny and let him have some stock in it, too, and he will be president and treasurer of it himself. Dr.

Klrby, he didn't like that and snld so. Said lie wns going to orgnn- They Was a Lot of Rag Chewing. lze that stock company nnd control It himself. But Dr. Jackson said he never put money into nothing he couldn't run.

So it was settled we would give the stuff a tryout and report to him. Before we went away from there it locked to me like Dr. Klrby and me was going to work fur this here Dr. Jackson instead of making all them there millions fur ourselves. Which I didn't tnke much to that Anti-Curl man myself; he was so cold blooded like.

I didn't like the scheme itself any too well neither not any way you could look at It. In the first place, it seemed like a mean trick on the niggers. Then I didn't much believe we could get away with It. The more 1 looked him over the more I seen Dr. Kirby had changed considerable.

When I first knowed him he liked to hear himself talking nnd he liked to live free nnd easy and he liked to be running around the country and all them things, more'n he liked to be making money. But now he was thinking money and dreaming money and talking of noth ing but bow to get it. He was willing to tnke up with most any wild scheme to make it (To be continued) i FOR WOMEN Is Easy to Have, Natural Colored and Beautiful So many women have grey or faded' hair; neglect it until it becomes dry and lifeless, begins to fall out and makes them appear much older than, they really are.

II 9 3 TTTlELL, It give me quite a turn lAj I to run onto the mention of II I that there David Armstrong 1 agin In this part of the country.

Here he had been jilting Miss Hampton way up in Indiany and running away with another girl way down here in Tennessee. Then it struck me mebby It Is jest different parts of the same story I been bearing of, and Martha had got ber part a little wrong. "George," I says, "what did you say Miss Lucy Buekner's grandad's name was?" "Kunnel Hampton des de same as my Miss Lucy befoh she done ma'hied Mnrse Willyum." That made me sure of It. It was the same wonuin. She had run away with David Armstrong from this here same neighborhood.

Then after he got her up north he had left her or her left hlin. And then she wasn't Miss Buck-tier no longer, nnd she was mud and wouldn't cnll herself Mrs. Armstrong So she moved away from where any one was liable to trace her to and took her mother's mnlrten name, Hampton. "Well," I says, "what ever become of 'em after they run off. George?" But George 1ms told about all he knows.

They went north, according to what everybody thinks, he says, front McMakln. he follored and hunted, nnd Colonel Tom Buckner he done the snme. Fur about a year Colonel Tom he was always making trips away from there to the north. But whether lie ever got any track of his sister and that Dnvid Armstrong nobody know-ed. Nobody never asked him.

Old Cnhinel Ilnmpton he grieved and he grieved, nnd not long after the run-awoy he up nnd died. And Tom Buckner ho finally sold all he owned in that part of the country and moved further south. George he didn't rightly know whether It wns Alnbnmn or Florida, or it might of been Georgia. I thinks to myself that mebby Mrs. Dnvis would like to know where her ntoce is nnd that I bettor toll her about Miss Hampton being in that thero little Imllnny town nnd where it Is.

And then I thinks to myself I better not butt In, fur Miss Hampton hns likely got her own reasons fur keeping away from her folks or else she wouldn't do It. It sot me to thinking about Martini too. Not that I hndn't thought of her lots of times. I had often thought I would write her. But I kept putting It off, and pitrty Boon I kind of forgot Mnrthn.

Moving around the country so much makes It kind of hnrd to keep thinking steady of the same girl. Besides, I had lost that there hnlf of a ring too. But knowing what I did now about Miss Hampton being Miss Buckmsr or Mrs. Armstrong and related to these Dnvlses made me want to get away from there. Fur that secret made mo feel kind of sneaking, like I wasn't being frank and open with them.

Yet If 1 had of told 'em I would of felt snenkinger yet fur giving Miss Ilnmpton away. I never got into a mlxnp thnt-a-wny betwixt my conscience and my duty but what It made me feel awful uncomfortnble. So I guessed I would light out from there. They wasn't never no kinder, better people than them Da vises either. They wns so pleased with my bringing Bud home the night he wns shot they would of jest nntchornlly give me hnlf their farm If I had of ast them fur It.

They wanted me to stay therethey didn't say fur bow long, nod I guess they didn't give a dern. But I vrtis in a sweat to ketch up with Dr. Klrby agin. I made purty good time, nnd lu a couple of days 1 was in Atlanta. I knowed the doctor must of gone back Into some branch of the medicine game the bottles told nie that.

It's hard work looking fur a man in a good sized town. I bung nronnd ho tel lobbies nnd places till 1 was tired of it, thinking be might come in. And 1 looked through all the ofllce buildings and rend all the advertisements in the papers. Then the second day I was there the state fair started up and 1 went out to it. 1 run acrost a couple I knowed out there the OrBt thing it wns Watty and the snake charmer woman.

Only she wasu't charming them now. Her and Watty hud a Parisian models' show. I ast Watty where Dolly was. He says he don't know, that Dolly has quit htm. By which I guess he means be has quit her.

1 ast where Reginald is, and the Human Ostrich. But from the way they answered my questions I seen I wasn't welcome none around there. I suppose that Mrs. Ostrich and Watty had met up ngin some-wheres, and bad Jest nntcherally run off with each other and left their fam-blles. It was at the freight depot that I found Dr.

Klrby at Inst. Tickled? Well, yes! Both of us. "Well, by George." says he, "you're good for sore eyes." Before he told me how he happened not to of drownded or blowed away or anything he snys we better fix up a bit. Which he meant I better. So he buys me duds from head to heel, and we goes to a Turkish bath place and I puts 'em on.

And then we goes and eats. Hearty. "Now," he says, "Fldo Ctitup, how did yon find me?" Author's Note. Can It be- that Danny struggles vaguely to report some reference to fidus Achates? I told him about the bottles. "A dead loss, those bottles." he snys.

"I wanted some nonreflllnble ones for a little scheme I had In mind, nnd I had to get them at a certain place, nnd now the scheme's up in the air and I can't use 'em."

MICROBES IN YOUR SCALP Authorities say that a microbe causes baldness. If you are losing hair try our remedy at our risk. Professor Unna, of Germany, and Dr. Sabouraud, the great French DermatoloKlst, claim that a microbe caUBes baldneBS, and their theory hna been verified by eminent scientists. This microbe destroys the hair in time causing the scalp pores to close and the scalp to become shiny.

Then, It is believed nothing will revive the growth. If treated before this occurs, baldness may be overcome. We know of nothing that has given such universal satisfaction in treating the scalp and hair as Rexall "93" Hair Tonic, It has been designed after long atudy to overcome the cause of falling hair as discovered by Prof.Unna, Dr. Sabouraud and other scalp and hair specialists, and we believe It will do more than anything else can to re-' move dandruff and stop falling halrj and if any human agency can promote a new growth of hair it will do that, too. We want you to make us prove It.

"We will pay for a month's treatment of Rexall "93" Hair Tonic used during a trial, if you will use it according to directions, and are not thor- oughly satisfied. When we will da this, you surely should not hesitate to at least try it. Start the treatment today. Your mere request will get your money back it you want It. Two sizes: BOc and $1.00.
