Her sister, for whose recovery she
had come to California, and for whom
she had been determinedly hopeful,
had just been pronounced to be in n
sinking condition, and desired to go
back to her mother. Beneath this grief
the brave girl was also hiding a fore
taste of the loss of this new friendship,
and it had suddenly become known to
her how deeply her life and hope were
involved.
The interview was short, but it left
a notable effect in the girls bearing,

of his sentiment, and he felt, every
time, as Il he himself were being
taken possession of and laid away in
the treasury that her strong, sweet
life was gathering.
It was getting to be time for astute
diplomacy to sanction some casual ad-

u Panic- Industries Daily Launched
without Adequate Capital.

Stockholm, Oct. 25.-The extraor-
binary scarcity of money which has
been growing more acute for month
is so seriously affecting commercial
circles us TO threaten crisis. The
balance of foreign trade continues
against Sweden and the repeated con-
traction of gold loans abroad fail to
palliate the situation. Industries are
daily launched but adequate capital
is not available and the newspapers
are filed with appeals from manu-
facturers in desperate straits for
money. Rural people attracted by
the industrial activity are flocking
to the towns and. consequently, the
demand for houses is so great that
rents have advanced 20 to 80 per cent.
The civil servants have already been
granted 20 per cent. increase in pay
to meet the hard times and II is en-
pected employers generally will have
to follow suit.
