John Itiiil.e of the Progressive Com
pany, composed of veteran dealers at
the yards.
"Mefore and during the war a car

"Protests- against thesi high rates
have been pmiilug Into the l.lve Stock

strong that a committee was appoint

Together with many other conimis-Ion
men who feel that (he rates are too

for some action, but the committee
has done nothing, and so far as we
can learn has not even held a meet

effort to get the commission charges
down to a Imsl fair to die farmer,
who must also pu heavy freight anil

Practically every car of stock sent
to the Chicago yards Is consigned to
some commission firm, the percentage
consigned direct to the packers or

Elsie Leaeroft looked around her
for the last time ut the houo she was I
leaving forever.
She strolled through the living room,
inspecting the Persian rugs, the marble
statuao, the pictures by modern mas- j
tei's, the grand piano on which she
had loved to play. She passed through
room after room and then slowly us-
cended the stairs to her bedroom.
Here, too. she took a Dual leave
taking. Never iigaln would this lux
ury ho -iVH, The man for whom she
was leaving her husband was com
paratively poor, a struggling proles
fesslonal man, who was throwing up
what little practlca he had, for her
bake, and taking her to a distant city.
She hud been married 12 years, and
there had been u time when she loved
her husband with nil the devotion
of which her heart was capable.
Ah, but that was when Harry was u
struggling lawyer, before he became
famous, acquired the representation
of a do.en of the biggest corporations
In the country.
In many ways she ndmlred him.
lie was the soul of honesty. Again
and again he had refused to handle
cases which he believed unjustllled.
All the more they believed In him.
All the more they crowded to his of
lice. In those early days when they had
a three-room u .utiuent In llaiiem,
ll ey had adored each other. It was
only when Harry glow rich that their
uenlih had come between them.
lie had showered gifts and luxuries
iipua her and the.v Iind meant so littlo
to her. She wiiii'od onl.v love. P.ut
material things bad Intervened, and
for a whole year now thej had been
nothing to each oilier.
Sh sii, peeled' l !'iit there had been
other women in ll.irr.v's life, but she
had been ton proud to Investigate the
stories that had been told her. She
bad simply waited until a new love
came to her.
Then she had met King, a struggling
lawyer, and she knew It was love
. v if it ut last. Like many women, she
needed love more than anything In the
.lorhl. Their hearts had leaped to
gether. At last she had consented to
.ihiindon everything and come away
with him.
Sue was to meet him at the station
that. night, and they were to go away
together.
And this was the last leave-taking
of the big house In which Harry and
she had spent the past live years to
gether. Years of heart-breaking neg
lect and loneliness and yet, in spite
of It till, lender thoughts would arise
unbidden when she remembered what
they hud meant to each other lu tho
long ago.
If only he had ever .shown her Hint
he still cared! She would have been
everything to him!
P.ut (here was no time to Indulge
In morbid introspection. The lime for
that was past, and In another hour
King and she would lie on the train to
gether. Feverishly" she began to put u few
things together In her bag. She was
Inking away only a few personal ef
fects. The iv-t all Harry's gifts, all
her Jewel r.v, she was leaving behind
her.
It was done, and the snap of the hag
sounded lu her ears like something lr
revocable, she crept down the stairs.
Tilklns, the lnnler, wu.s In the dining
room, lie neist not see her.
She was on the lust flight when she
heard a ke.v In the front door. It was
Harry. Home early and he was
hudlly owl Inline before ion. Panic
smote her. She cowered against the
wall, watching his tall form go Into
the living rnojn.
Then, picking up tho bag, she went
on. Now she was In the hall, past the
dining room, in which she could hear
Tilklns moving. Ittti the door of the
living room was open, and she could
see Harry silting with Ids head In
Ids luilllls.
And a sudden Irresistible desire
eaiue to her to tell him what she was
going io do. A desire not to steal
away like a thief, but to confront him
bohlly end openly.
She went In, leaving the hug In the
ball. Harry looked up. His face was
haggard.
"Whut Is It?"
. "W'o'io ruined, that's all. I've been
hiding ll from you. I didn't want to
worry you." She hoard him dimly as
he went on. L'nforlunnlo specula
tions . . -. the corporations hud
grown tired of Ids Inllexihlllty and
gradual! fallen away, gone to younger
and lof-s scrupulous men.
"It means llaiiem again not so bad
as Hiirlem. perhaps, hut a Hat. Can
you can you let things he as they
used to be?"
"Harry!" Suddenly she know. She
was kneeling at Ids side, her arms
about him. Shu knew now that the
past had been only an evil dream.

That -defeat ended North Platte s

would have to lose lxth remaining
games while the Ncbraskans were
wlnn'ng, and that is scarcely possi
ble, as Wr.y will be the Capital
City's opponents Sunday next.
Denver hrs been fortunate during
the shoot. For a club vf high-cla a
shnotetM they havo performed poorly
and yet, whoever their opponent hap
pened to be, Hint opponent did just u
b.t worse in ne rly every instance.

tory over Denver in the shootoff that
followed n tin dllWnir Oin cm-'im nnd
the Denverites fear the coming con
test while Fort Collins, holding the
edge in averages thus fi r compiled,
are firm in the belief that they will
repeat their victory.
But there are two others to be ser
ously considered. Pueblo and Lou's
ville are tied with Fort OMlins for
second place, and should the Col

they meet, cither one of the two mav
make it a triple tic. This will be de

FORTIETH ANNIVERSARY
The Christian Home Orphanage,
Council Bluffs, Iowa, will hove round
el out forty years of .service in be
half of orphan and destitute children
on March 16th. This great institu
tion, known in all parts of the coun
try, has been built up and maintained
wholly by the voluntary contributions
of the people. It hus no other means
of support. It cares for a daily
average of more than two hundred
children, received from all parts of
the country, and also conducts a
hospital department, a department for
aged, dependent women and a depart
ment for the crippled and deformed.
At present a most' serious epidemic
of flu has stricken the Home, more
than one hundred being s'ck, many of
them seriously. Funds are badly
needed to help meet the expense of
this onslaught, and to help keep the
work from debt. Every department
of the institution is crowded, and ap
peals are made to the people to help.
It is hoped that a Fortieth Anniver
sary offering to this work will relieve
a pressing s'tuation which, if long
continued, will work prions injury to
the Orphanage. Send something to
these little ones. Address Tho Chris
tian Home Orphanage, Council Bluffs,
Iowa.
