The Indianlzation of the Indian army, which has, been one of the most disturbing questions In Indian politics during recent months. Is being made a leading subject for discussion at the present session of the national legislature. The object sought by the Indians Is to have only Indian officers for Indian troops. Agi tation along this line has been In creasing gradually for several years. and Is expected to result In legisla tive action at an early date. In a recent meeting of the legisla tive assembly, Yamln Khan moved to recommend to the governor general In council that he get king's commis sions for Indians by direct recruit ment until all Indian regiments are wholly Indlanlzed. Yamin Khan, In urging his resolu tion, made It clear that he did not un- Mystery of Missing Nuts From Truck Solved Iron Mountain, Mich. John Stefa nelll, this city, owns a rooster that is very fond of automobile bolt nuts. He swallowed so many of them that be held up a repair Job on a truck. The rooster was killed and five bolt nuts were removed from his throat. His carcass served as a Sunday dinner for the Stefnnelll family. While I Pancherl was making re pairs to the engine, he placed the nnts on the ground, one by one. The roos ter reraa!ii;ci close to the truck, and as each nut was dropped he walked over and swallowed it. When the mechanic begun to reas semble the engine he wondered where the nuts had disappeared. He noticed the rooster's throut was bulged out An operation was decided upon the parts were recovered and the truck was put together. kiy, aba. - It might not have made your mouth water that street car picture of corn bread-but Hope Mawson had lunched early and lightly, end the yellow square of com bread, steaming hot, with a cup of coffee at the side-also steaming and two nice, neat butter balls on a butter plate-all this was pleasantly tantalizing to Hope Maw son, even though the picture was only an advertisement for Folger's corn meal. Hope was riding homeward on the street car and the advertisement was directly opposite her, so It was not difficult for her to dwell upon the tempting sight for many minutes. Her meditations ran sometnmg ue u . "Strange that people don't eat more corn bread so inexpensive and so nourishing, and as the advertisement assured, so wholesome, even when it was eaten hot. That is, of course, if made from Folger's cornmeal. Funny why It would be any more wholesome If It were made from Folger's. It would he worth trying. "It was Diana's night to cook din ner, to be sure, but Hope would stop at the corner grocery store, buy some corn bread and have It ready by the time Diana had finished the rest of the dinner. "There'd be a recipe on the side of the box, of course; If there wasnt let's see. how was It that old sauy used to make It? Two cupfuls of corn meal and two cupfuls of regular flour and some salt and sugar and baking powder. There would have to be milk. Was It a cupful or two or one and a half that Sally used? Well Sniiw dlrln't measure the milk, she just poured It In' until she thought she had cot the right batter. "Funny how those old cooks used to get such good results without meas uring. Must be they had gooa eyes, Probably they measured just as ac- curatelv as the up-to-date cooking school guardian, only they measured with their eyes, not with graded cups." Here Hope's meditations were sud- denly cut short. The conductor was calling "Love-a-lavenue," and Hope knew that Lovel avenue was five blocks beyond her own street She glanced once more at the ad vertisement got what nourishment she could from the depicted golden square of corn bread and hurried to the door. Brandon Jones, who had been sit ting beside her, rose with her and also went toward the door, Hope hesitat ed for a fleeting moment and then de cided not to take a car back, because she would pass a grocery store on her way and could buy cornmeal besides saving the extra car fare. It was that cornmeal advertisement that had made her ride past her street that must be a sign that her system really craved corn bread for supper. She walked three blocks and then stopped at the grocery store. Oddly enough, Brandon Jones went Into the grocery store, watched her as she made her purchase and stammered out with considerable embarrassment "Dog biscuits, please," when the gro cer's clerk asked him what he wanted, Then Hope proceeded, and the man proceeded. She saw him from the tall of her eve saw with approval his good proportions and easy stride. he was following her, as It seemed quite likely that he was, he was the first man who had ever had the nerve to do such a thing. Hope concluded that It was quite an Interesting experience, as long as was broad daylight and the man looked so harmless. Then he walked faster and overtook her, thus putting her In the position of the pursuer rather than the pur sued. But Hope couldn't help pursu lng because he went exactly where she wanted to go. He evn crossed the street where she wanted to, and preceded her Into the hall of the apart ment where she and her companions, Diana and Daphne, lived. The hall boy spoke and let him pass. Obvious ly he was a resident. Yet why, If he lived in that apartment, did he .ride on to Lovel avenue? Hope was Interested In this appar ent mystery, but not so Interested to forget her cornmeal. She quickly changed from her office clothes to washable house frock, and In five min utes more had the cornmeal and flour and milk beaten up as she had seen old Sally do so often In her child hood. After the bread was In the oven and Diana, now arrived on the Bcene, had been cautioned to watch It, Hope slipped out. of the kitchen and Into the hall. She simply had to solve the problem of the pursuing and pursued young man. She rang the elevator bell and when the elevator boy appeared slipped quarter Into his hand and asked him who It was he had brought up In the elevator with her that afternoon. "He looks so much like s sort of a cousin of mine that I'm practically certain he must be," said Hope, largely ex cusing herself. "That's Mr. Jones, miss," grinned the boy. "He certainly must be a cousin or something, because he has Just been after me to ask what-all yon-all was named. Would Jones be the right name, misnT' "It would do," said Hope and then, "What Is his other name?" "Mr. Brandon Jones, miss," said the boy. "Very nice gentleman all the Joneses Is fine folks. Lives in the apartment Just above yours, only It hasn't any kitchen, because he gets all his nieais out and the kitchen's done been made over Into an extra room to hold his books. He's a very learned gentleman, miss, I. should say." And all this though interesting, did not any better explain why Mr. Bran don Jones had ridden on to Lovel avenue. Daphne and Diana declared the corn bread to be exactly like the corn bread old Sally used to make. They were feasting merrily on It when the bell of the apartment rang. They ex changed surprised glances, for callers never came unannounced In that apartment. Hope fled to the door, and there stood Brandon Jones. Excuse me," he began, and before he had time to go further with his apologies he whiffed and said: "My, but that smells good! I smelled it way up In my apartment, and that's hy I came. You see " 'I'm sure we all would like to have you come In and share It with us," said Hope, looking at Daphne and Diana, who had now appeared In the hall. And so Brandon Jones was ushered Into the living room, where the large table had been spread for dinner, Brandon then explained. He hoped Miss Mawson the elevator boy had told him her name would accept his apologies. He had sat beside her on the car and had been Interested In the Inter est she showed in that corn bread ad vertisement. He had seen her be fore and knew that she lived In this partment, so when she rode past her street he knew It must be because of her preoccupation In this advertise ment He got off where she did and fol lowed her Into the grocery store, and to his delight she bought the corn meal. Later he got the tempting smell of baklne; corn bread through his open window above corn bread and coffee, Just as the picture had suggested. He was looking for a good rule for corn bread he thought perhaps he might be able to secure hers. "But why all this excitement about corn bread?" said Daphne, who was blunt Mr. Jones said It was absurd of him not to have begun at the beginning and explained that at first "You see, m an advertising man Jones & Hancock " 1 "Oh, I didn't know you were that, Mr. Jones," said Daphne, with much respect, hearing the name of the larg est advertising concern In the city. "And we Just took over the account of Folger's corn products want to make a big thing of It. I thought a picture of corn bread would make a good street car card tried to get our artist to make It as real as possible. Mr. Hancock thought that was a little too simple wanted to try something clever, you know. But we thought we'd try It out. So when I saw you, Miss Mawson, reading the advertise ment I felt that at least one street car rider was Interested. And then, by Jove, you went to the store and bought the cornmeal. I'll have to tell Hnncock " Mr. Jones ate two, then three pieces of the corn bread and declared that Miss Mawson was the best cook In the world, and Diana made a face behind his back because she had cooked all the rest of the dinner, which they had urged him to share with them, and he never thought to say what a good cook she was. But then right from the first Mr. Jones had eyes only for Hope. "And that was as It should be," said the prnctical Daphne a month later when Hope and Brandon announced their engagement, because usually the men they knew admired all three "and divided admiration," continued Daphne, "is not conducive to diamond solitaires."

The reign of Canute, the second king of Denmark of that name and the first Danish king of England, Is very Important In the constitutional history of Denmark, says the Detroit News. Canute Issued the first nation al coinage of Denmark and published the first written code of Danish law wherein the custom of private ven geance was. prohibited. He raised the clergy In their corpo rate capacity to a separate estate of the realm and Instituted the Thlngllth or royal guard of 3,000 men. The members of this body were all of good family and rich enough to equip them selves at their own expense. From them sprang the Danish order of no bility. In England he compiled a code of laws which Is still extant. In this code he denounced those who kept up the practice of pagan rites and superstition, and forbade the sending of Christian slaves out of the country for sale. 1 From the pope he obtained privileges for the English school established at Rome and an abatement of the sums demanded from his archbishops for the pallium and from the various princes, relief for all English arid Danish pilgrims and merchants from all Illegal tolls and detentions which they had endured on their route to Rome. Canute Is most popularly known, aot by his extended rule and legisla tive enactments, but by the familiar story of the monarch, the courtier and the disobedient sea. St. Helens.
