Her action in boarding him in his den was not sur prising, even though it might have been considered unusual. He had been well aware for some time that she was sorely uneasy and that 1t was only a question of time when she would make the expected advances. Since the announcement of Jane's engage. ment Bansemer had been punctiliously considerate. And yet underneath his faultless exterior Mrs. Cable felt that she could recognize the deadly boise of other intentions. She lived in fear that they would spring upon her as If from the dark and that she would be powerless to combat them. Something stronger than words or even intuition told her that James Bansemer was not to be turned aside by sentiment.
 Driven at last to the point where she felt that she must know his intentions, she boldly ventured into his copsulta- tiOn room, a trembling but determined creature whose flesh quivered with chill despite the furs that foiled, the wintry winds. Elias broom passed her on into the private room, with a polite grin that set her teeth on edge.
 She left the building fifteen minutes later, nursing wild but forlorn hope that James Bansemer meant no evil after all. Without hesitation she told

CURES MADE BY RADIUM
May Even be UssfuIfor Internal Tumors
 Says Sir Frederick Treyes.

London. Jan. 27.-Sir Frederick Treves sergeant-surgeon to the King and con- sulting surgeon of the London Hos- pital. cited yesterday in featuring at that hospital some interesting in- stances of radium cures he had wit messed. including vascular tumors, birthmarks. moles. eczema. cheloids, rodent ulcers and epitheliomata
 He said it was almost uncanny to see the rapid manner in which radiunl sometimes accomplished healing. After the first application. say on Monday, nothing happens until about Friday, when the skin suddenly becomes red and irritable. Then a sort of crust forms. which comes away in two or three weeks.
 About a month later there is a sec ond application of radium. after which in many cases the patient does not need to see a physician again
 Sir Frederick pointed out that one of the greatest uses of radium in the future might result from it's curious radioactive emanations. He described how a penny enclosed in jar with an unsealed vial of radium became itself radioactive: if the penny were remov- ed and washed with nitric acid it's radiactivity was transferred to the lat ter. while the penny was no longer radioactive.
 As an instance of possible future usefulness the lecturer told how a solution of such radioactive deposit was injected into a mouse suffering from an artifically induced abdominal cancer. The result was that the growth entirely disappeared. It would be a mistake to rely too much on this or similar cases. but they were very suggestive. It was conceivable that lung diseases might some day be found curabe by inhalfng a radioactive emanation of vapOr.

SEEK TO EXCUSE
 ACCEPTED JUROR
Prosecution in Carmack Trial Alleges
 One is an HabituaI Drunkard.
Special from United Press. }

Especial from United Press.)
 Nashville. Tenn. Jan 27-When court re-convened to-day in the trial of John Sharp. Colonel Duncan Cooper and Robin Cooper for the murder of Former United States Senator Edwin W. Carmack, most peculiar state in the litigation had been reached. The actual trial is off until Friday. Deputy sheriffs are securing the country To- eating a venire of 500 from which to complete the jury and meanwhile, the presiding justice is passing upon the qualification of two of the men al- ready accepted. These men, J. S. Leigh and L. M. Jackson, were ap- proved by both sides. In the case of Jackson the defense tried to get rid of him, his appearance was not striking the attorneys favOrably. so he is not expected to oppose the states effort to erlease him.
 , Leigh's case is different, however, and Q large number of witnesses. 21 for the state and 15 for the defense are being heard. The state asks that he be excluded while the defense seeks to retain him on the panel. In his ope1'ing address. States Attorney Jeff McCarn averred that Leigh was an habitual drunkard: that he was intoxi- cated when called to the stand for dS IO HIS Furthermore McCarn specifically al- legged Leigh has several times declared it was a ''good thing for Tennessee" that Carmack was killed.
 In lengthy speech Attorney Ander- son for the defense explained they had no special desire to keep him in the jury box. "But we want to try this lawsuit" the attorney declared "and we will never do so if the state is to examine and accept men and later on get cold feet and try to reject them. This man is the father of eleven chill dren and the grandfather of IF. He takes a drink when he wants to. his people say. but he is an exemplary husband and father and he should be able to return an honest verdict"
 Judge Hart announced he would take evidence on this point and the states witnesses were examined.

Chicago knows Jane Adams and her
work at Hull House What it thinks
of them is well Indicated by an article
in The Daily Tribune on her new book

Streets"
Self consciousness is a vice of which
Miss Adams never is guilty in books
or out of them. and the genuine beauty
OF her style is fostcred chiefly by tIat
fact. She takes no thought OF SELF The
theme is the thing. To say that her
genius for human sympathy grows by
what il feeds on would be superfluouS.

tivity can flow through the fields of tho

II doubt if there were two mer
among the patriots who had a clearer
view of the situation from the start
than Mercy Otis Warren and Abigail
Smith Adams, wife of President John
Adams. or whether today. with all our
higher education and enlarged oppor-
tuntes we are able to produce bet
ter type than these two womenpro-
ducts of the best traditions of their
day.
"Both were Massachusetts born
both came from families OF intelligence
and serious purpose, before they were
20 both had married educated men who
were active in the government of Mass
achusetts and who from the first re-
sisted Great Brltain's growing tenden-
cieS to exploit the colonies. Neither
Abigail Smith nor Mercy Otis ever had
anything of what we should call school,
ing They had been taught at home to
read and write and keep accounts. and
that was the end of IL. but they had
access to good books. and they had
practised unlimited letter writing.
"The approach OF the Revolution
found them both women with families,
Mrs. Warren living at Plymouth and
Mrs. Adams at Bralntree, Familiar
with every detail of colonial politics as
they were. their homes were soon CEN
ters of red-hot patriotism. The Adams
es and Warrens had been accustomed
to visiting and writing back and forth.

tween them. letters bearing every scrap

sci and encouragement While the cor
reSpondence was most active in this
circle OF four, 1t was not confined to 1t.
Mrs Warren. particularly. had large
list of distinguished correspondents.
and with them the exchange of news
and opinion was constant So helpful
did Mr.. Adams and Mr. Warren find
the letters of their wives that finally
the latter suggested that groups he
formed throughout the colonies for
similar correspondence. The idea was
was eagerly seized upon. and was the
beginning of the committee of corres-
pondence which played so large part
In the Revolution.
Largely because of Mrs. Adams's
urging, Mrs. Warren became a verita-
BILE pamphleteer in verse She was. so
thought Mr.. Adams and many of her
friends, an Incompatible satirist.' and
they urged her. for the good OF the
cause, to revIle the Tory and canon
iZe the patriot.
while Mrs, Warren was pouring out
poems. dramas and history. Mrs. Adams
was writing TO her husband and to
her friends, from her troubled home in
Braintree, volumes of frank, pictur-
esque letterS-a series which furnish
the livelest sketches we have of the life
OF the Revolutionary patriot and his
family.
