"You mean this—are you serious? 1
expected the offer of a generous salary,
Cal, but this is simply stunning."
"I told you I'd make you a proposi
tion so big and generous you couldn't
get away from it But mind you, I've
the best reasons for making it We
are entering the last phase of a world
struggle for financial supremacy. This
country is to be the real center of
modern power. We must become and
will become quickly the economic
masters of the world. When that hap
pens somebody is going to be master
here."
Bivens rose and paced back and forth
a moment
"Somebody's going to be master here,
Jim." he repeated, "and it's not going

To Freshen Air.
To freshen the air of a sickroom,
ground coffee should be sprinkled on a
shovel or coal-scoop previously heated
in the fire. A match should then bb
held to a small piece of camphor-gum,
and when this is alight it should ba
placed in the center of the shovel.
The burning coffee gives an aromatic
aroma to the room, which is very re
freshing.
