"I ran't remember the act

tut well, you need not be surprised
to hear thatthat I'm not married
any more."
"I knew ft!" she said, trium
jhitntly, "What did I tell you? It's that Mr.
Dudley. 1 tuppose he think she

lake my advice and get all you tan
out ot bun before you let him go.

to pay up. If I were you"
She topped short, sisriug . at
llarel; there was something tragic
in the younger girls face that even
Lrlia's sharp tongue, was silenced for
a moment, "tiood l.ord!" she said
then, lonrtcstly. "iou don't mean
that you rr fond of him fond of

Hurl covered her fare with her
shaking hand.
Oh, I am. I am. she laid, broken

think I shall die!"
CHAPTER XXXil
Delia looked at Harl with a queer
expression in her eye. .She hid
never cared for any one seriously in
all her life, She could not believe
that llsicl was serious.
She supposed that Harry' change
of fortune was in some way respon
sihle for it. She (tuck her feet up
on the fender again and (tared at the
fir.
It's no use howling about it, she
aid at last, unsympathrlirally
There are thousand more men in
the world better men than he is
and finite a rich. Even Hulhrrt
who hate the Idea of marriage more
than any man I know, would he only
too pleased to say snap if you said
snip. A for Harry Wicklow! Well
it hntn't taken long for him to make
up hi mind that you're not quite
what he want down at Kresoie J I all
I suppose it was different when he
didn't stand an earthly of ever
getting Norman' money. Don't let
him down too lightly, that' all. You
get every halfpenny you can."
Hazel dried her eye. She was
used to Delia' worldly wisdom by
this time, but it always made her
feel ashamed. She stood up, stretch
ing her arm wearily.
"Well there alway the future,
she aid, rather hakily. "And i
Mr. Greavc isn't disappointed.'
Delia laughed dryly.
"Its noting to do with Greaves,
my dear. Hulbert's the one who's
pulled all the tiring, and don't you
forget it. He' paid up for you. He
furnished thi flat.
Hazel flushed indignantly.
"I furnished it myself out of my
salary. I don't know how you can
say such a thing!
"Your salary I" Delia echoed, nas
tily. "What have you done to earn a

only a matter of arrangement. IIul
hcrt and Greaves could both tell you
that if they liked. You try throwing
Hulbert over and ee how much in
terest the other man will take in
you."
I don t believe you. Mr, Greave
told me himself that he was sure I
had a great future in atore for me."
Delia burst into thrill laughter.
"I like that I Lord, how green you
arel A great future I What at, for
heaven t taker Are you going to be
a second Ellen Terry, or a Bern
hardt?" She shrugged her shoulders,
Hael stood very still; there wa a
burning spot of color in her pale
cheeks.
"I shall tetl them both what you
say," she said at last. "I shall tell
Mr. Greavet, and ask him if it's
true."
"Do! I thouldl, I dare say he'll
persuade you that I'm jealous and
have just made it all up." She swung
round in her chair and leaned her
arm on it wooden back, looking at
Hazel with a teasing smile. "You re
not the only one they've run be
tween them, he said, more kindly.
"Bles your heart, they gave me
a chance once, only I didn't turn out
to be the swan they expected! If I
had I shouldn't be getting a living
by my wits as I am now, you bet
your life I You'll be all right if you
manage to strike it lucky. Your face
may pull you through; you're pretty
enough. By the way, that reminds
me what I came for. Are you doing
anything tonight?"
"No."
"All right. Well, I'll take you
along with me. Topsy St. Holier
you don't know her, by the way, do
you?"
"I think so. I've heard her name
-but"
"Well, she's having a supper party
tonight. She's going on tour tomor
row, and she asked me to take you
along. They've all heard of you, of
course, and, between vou and me
and the doorpost, my dear. Topsy's
a bit Jealou of th way Greaves has
taken you up. She wa hi latest
swan, vou see, till you came. Sht'i
not a bad sort; you'll like her."
Topsy St. Heliert lUsel tried to
remember where she had herd tht
nsme, but memory eluded her. She
answered with an effort that she
would bk to go; she was not in the
least Veen, really, but anything
seemed better than being left to hr.

"Unfortunate

Strengthening ot l't h
Cummins Law.
Omaha ISm l4 M lra,
W'sshingtan, Aug. 2i I'rrtidcnt
Harding' addrrtt to congress was
"unfortunate" and it interfered sen
outly with progrex of negotiation
to end the rail strike, Samuel Gotiip
era, prcsi'li nt of lb American l ed
eration of Labor, declared m a Hale
meiit, "It wa unfortunate that the presl
dent should hav gone before con
gress with the coal strike well on ii
way lo complete scttli-ment and with
tatisf.irtory progress being made
towards settlement of the rail strike,"
said Mr, (ioinprri.
"I am informed from New York
that the rserutive assumed a dif
ferent mood and attitude after the
conference adjourned (or lunch and
theyi learned the nature of the presi
dent' iiK'ss.inr,
"The president suggested nothing
th.it could alleviate the present situ
ation and his address might well
have been deferred until the nego
tiations had ended one way or an
other or until an opportunity was
had for the exercise of cool judg
ment," Condemn Proposal.
Mr. Gmnprr strongly condemned
that portion of the president's ad
dress recommending the ultimate
strengthening of the Cuinmins-Lsrh
law so a to make the decision of
Ibe railroad labor board enforceable.
He declared he had "the utmost
faith that congress would never enact
such a law," which, he said, would
impose a condition of tlavcry upon
me railroad worker.
"The president' position is noth
Ing new for him," (aid Mr. Gompers,
"As a member of the senate he was
paired in favor of a provision of the
transportation act which contained a
proposal to outlaw stnkrs and com
pel men to work against their wil .
In his hrst regular inrssaue to
congress in December, 1921. he rec
omrnended measures of the kind that
would invoke the power of the gov
emnicnt to compel workers to obey
the decisions of a body or court af-
Ivcting wages and conditions.
Work or Go to Jail.
'He says now that the decisions
of the railroad labor board must be
made enforceable. No other con
struction ran be placed upon that
statement but that if the railroad
labor board or anv other similar
body render a decision further re
ducing wage or imposing repugnant
condition upon the worker they
will have to CO to work or so to
jail," .
Notwithstanding Mr. Gomner'
view, the president' determination
to use everv nower at the mmmiml
of the federal government to keep
the railroads in operation was gener
ally regarded here as constituting a
loirni- innuence toward success ot
the mediation conference now' in
progress in New York between the
leaders of the railroad brotherhoods
and the railroad executives, to the
shopmen's strike.
Officials close to the nresidenf de
clared that the president, in his
message to congress, meant everv
word be said in his warning to the
strikers and railroad executives that
government by law must be main
tained and that the conspiracy laws
and safety laws would be invoked
to the limit,
Freshmen to He Welcomed

this fall, the Iron Sphinx, a sopho
more men's society, is planning an

and 19, at which tags with places to

These tags are to be worn through
out the week by both sophomores

More than l.500 men are expected to

The first blue skv law in Ne
braska was pasted in lOt.t, at the re
fiiet of Governor Aldrirh. When
the b gilatuie linithed with it. it was
full of loophole and jokers. It
administration was turned over to the
stale railway communion. There
are hardly any records of thote first

having been given orally. 'J wo men

'1 he present bureau came into ac

sales were at their height. Since that
year there have been many prosecu
tions, but ihe claim is apparently
wen auiiienticaied that not a single
fraudulent rase coming before the
courts originated under this bureau.
Under the railway commission per
mits were given for a year, and, arm
ed wilh these, some fake companies
continued to sell their tork. Today
there is not a tingle outstanding

Nipt Fraud in Bud.
Some have proposed the aboli.h
mrnt of the blue tky division, on the
theory that many small investor! get
the mistaken impression that com
panies patsed by the state are guar
anteed to .be rertainly profitable.
Other hold that the statute punch
ing fraud should be sufficient. To
this it is replied that punishment for
fraud is like locking the stable after
the horse has been atolen. Whereat
the fraud statute contemplate the
punishment of the fraud promoter
after he had taken the money of the
investors, blue sky legislation aim
at nipping fraud in the bud.
The state bureau of securities doe
not attempt to eliminate the ordinary
hazards of business, nor even specu
lation, but only fraud in the organiza
tion and promotion of commercial
enterprises. It does seek to eliminate,
unconscionable risks, but. 10 far a
spallation is concerned, 95 pr cent
oi its worx is wnn speculative con'
cerns. All it demand is that invest
or be given a run for their money
It strives to make ure that pro

but actually apply it to the estab
lishment of the business they adver
tise. On occasions companies are
required to deposit the proceed from
dock sales until it is clear that they
will be able to found the business
that they propose. If the project
appears not to be feasible the money
is on hand to repay the investors.
Forty Per Cent Cut.
The bureau of securities volun
teered the largest reduction in its ap
propriation of any branch of the
state government. By improving
its system of handling work it was
able to stand a 40 per cent cut by
the special session. The staff is
composed of a chief, five examiners,
four stenographers and a counsellor
who is paid by the office of the at
torney general. Salaries run from
one at $1000 to $1,200 a year,
Thus, in almost every function, the
code department of trade and com
mcrce acts as the financial watch
dog of the people of Nebraska. Sec
retary Hart is authorized to grant
and revoke licenses to bankers and
to insurance agents. When evidence
ot bad practice, misrepresentation,
collusion or unfair settlement is
found he acts in behalf of the public
and deprives the cinltv man of his
permit to work in any institution of
the kind.
The political attacks on this, along
with other code departments, have
made the woik of the secretary more
difficult than it otherwise would have
been, 1 1 is faith iu the code system,
however, is secure, and he believes
that if the democrats should get in
office and attempt to repeal the code
law, as their platform promises, every
legitimate interest in the state would
suffer.

Common Sense
Do You Want a Grouch Cure?
Want to get rid of that grouch of
yours?
Here is a way to do it: Get up
early and go where the birds are
singing their morning greetings,
watch the unfolding of nature in the
cool woods, or spend a little time
where the air is clear and invigorat
ing. Give nature a chance and she will
do wonders for you as you stroll.
There is a freshness, a critpnes
about nature in the morning.
Nature responds gladly to the call
of the morning sun.
The drewdrop glisten, buds un
fold and turn their faces to the east,
in apparent happy expectancy of
another day,
1 here is nothing commercial or
sordid about the picture as nature
paints it at break o d.vv.
A morning stroll, alive to the
beauties to be bad on every side in
the country, makes the day brighter,
no matter how irktome the tasks,
in a stuffy cooped up office, later,
earning a living.
Win s cannot live long in the light
of the morning sun.
