WASHINGTON. Dec. 23,-Secretary
Knox conferred today about Chinese
affairs with Masano Nanigara, charge
Of the Japanese embassy pending tho
arrival OF the newly appointed am-
bassador. Neither would disclose the
nature Of the discussion, but It is un-
derstood that the conclusion was
reached that there was as yet no rea-
son to abandon hope that the Chinese
peace commissioners In Shanghai
would reach "A basis of agreement.
Want Speedy Pence.
The nations desire a speedy restora-
ton of peace and are believed TO be
earnestly considering the advisability
OF supplementing their Identical note
delivered at the beginning Of the peace
conference to set out the earnest hope
Of these nations that success would
attend the conference. The supple
mentary note, If It should be agreed
upon, probably will make II appear IN
no uncertain terms that the powers
dc not propose TO look with favor
upon the continuance of hostilities. a
fact1 that is deterring the element in
favor of making such strong repre-
sontations at this moment is fear
that the effect might be to arouse a
feeling Of resentment among the re-
publican advocates in China that not
only would endanger the success OF
the attempt to restore peace, but ac-
tually would jeopardize the safety OF
foreigners now in China.

felt that he could endure it no
longer, that the last and most desper
ate extremity had arrived and that
now he must spend his dime. He
was plunged deep in meditation when
he felt someone touch his arm and
turned about.
Beside him there stood gaunt man
with cavernous cheeks, feverish, wild
ish eyes, and a stomach that curved
the wrong way. The apparition adj
dressed him in croaking voice.

Wellington stared into the evening

smoothly worn dime. He knew well
enough what this other man was suf-
fering, for had he not been in the
same stage twenty-four hours before!
And to give a man a dime in such a

They entered the restaurant and
Wellington walked straight up to the
proprietor "Bob,' said he, 81 owe
you pretty stiff bill, but am going
to go to work in a week and then l
will begin paying you off. Now | want
you to do me a last favor. l owe you
about forty dollars, and a couple of
dollars more won't make much differ

my friend over there is starving. Now
l want you to fill him up to the chin

The proprietor looked at his old pa
iron thoughtfully.

length. Beings its Christmas eve
I'll take a chance on you even if you
are down sud out. Tell your friend to
order what he wants" So Wellington
and the stranger sat down together
and Wellington watched his compan-
ion fill himself with good things until
at last with his stomach again curved
the right way, the droop gone from his
shoulders and the feverish light van
ished from his eyes. the gorged one
arose.
my friend said the stranger. "I
could not have endured it another day
but of course you have never known
what it is to go two days without
food. And when tonight you go home
and sit down to your table to your
feast, remember that there is an out
cast fellow being upon the streets who
is blessing every mouthful that you
eat. Good-by, Christian"
Wellington held out mis- hand Good
by, stranger, and good luck to you It
was a mere trifie. Happy to have
been able to give you a lift" Then
he went up to Frenchy's hash house
and had his dimes worth Of coffee and

what could he do? He turned about.
Close before him was a restaurant
where he had spent hundreds of dol
lars in his palmy days and whose pro-

bill there for his last big after theater

he had never had the courage even in

there was no chance to send them a

sure can never tell which,
But Mr. Plat is one of the incest men
in the office, that is, he was before
this happened. So I felt we ought to
do something for him, just to show
our good willard, anyhow, we've
dug down for others we thought much
less of, so why shouldn't we for him?
But the wedding was over, without in

they were housekeeping before we

Cured In His Own Home Town I

fellow townsmen to be cured of
kidney and bladder ailments as he
himself was cured. For Is years |
had kidney trouble. There was
severe pain across my back and the
action of my bladder was annoying
and too frequent. l got some Of Foley
Kidneys Pills and took them and in
few days time the pain left my back
and the action Of my kidneys and
bladder became normal. After taking
four bottles I am better than [ nave
been for years. ]. 7. Bennett.

The next day I looked again. But
either a thing was too expensive or
would have money left. 1t is remark
able how few things there are in the
world you can buy for $26.60, no
more, no less.
And then I saw it. 1t was in a de-
partment store, and marked down
from $50 to $3.50! There it was, to
a cent! A great big, glittering, mag
niicent Punch Bowl! Nobody had
thought of that!
But, to make sure, l sent the sales
ticket with it and told the Platts they
could exchange the punch bowl, if
they wished, for something they liked
better.
And what do you suppose those
Platts did?
