MUST GER ALL,

Richard Parr, the discoverer of the
sugar trust frauds, was talking in New
York about the generous reward grant
ed him by the government.
Some folks thought I was going to
get a reward of a couple of millions
or so. They put me in the lawyer
class"
"The lawyer class?" said the report.

We've won the will contest for
him, said the junior partner, rubbing

But the senior partner frowned.

NOTHING TO LOSE,

They were impecunious "penny-a-
liners" and they lived together, partly
because they didn't mind each other
much, but principally because they
were about the same size, and one

In the silent watches of the night,
one of them awoke to hear a suspici-
GUS creaking in the room. It was
bungling burglar, who had mistaken
their room for an adjoining suite, oc-
cuped by a wealthy fshmonger.
"George!" he shrieked, there's a
burglar in the room"

The Girl Who Came Back

By TEMPLE BAILEY

The little mother sat and sewed.
There was the party dress for Emily.
She knew she wasn't making 1t well.
1t needed the more artistic finish Of
one who kept in touch with styles.
The little mother was too busy to 20
out into the world and see things.
Since Jean had left there had been so
many things to do.
She shipped of a thread and sur
veyed the garment. Jean could have
tied the bows differently. But she
must not wish her back when she was
so happy in her life in the city. In
the store where Jean worked people
came to be fitted and tried on, and
there was always life and excitement
and plenty of money.
She is very happy" the little
mother told Andy Wentworth when
he had come in the night before.
Andy had said, thoughtfully, 81 hope
So" and had stared into the fire.
The little mother wished that Jean
might have cared for Andy, The big,
double house on the hill would have
held them all--Jean and Andy living
on one side, and Emily and her moth
er on the other. And in the spring
they would have looked out on the
blossoming dogwood and would have
heard the birds sing and in the fall
there would have been the flame of
the trees and the sunsets over the
lake.
There was no view of sunset from
the little mothers window. Only the
squalid streets OF the mining town
and bit Of bleak north sky,
When the lamps were lighted it
was better and the little mother
sewed in a circle of light until Emily
came. Emilys hair was like spun
gold and when she tried on the new
pink dress she looked like rose. But
the little mother didn't think of that.
She was worried about the tit EN-.
