One day, the son, William,
passing through the factory, was
struck by Mary's beauty. He
stopped and talked to her, and
soon after sent for her to, see him
in his office.
Mary was frightened. But
William F. Peters was the boss,
and it does not do for working
girls to offend the boss.
So when William F. Peters
asked her for permission to call
on her, she gave it. -
He called, not once, but many
times. And he made love to her,
and one night he asked her to-
marry him. She consented, for
she, too, loved him, although she
never had expected to win the,
boss for a husband.
Her happiness was biighted
little when young Peters asked
her to keep the engagement Sc
cret for a little time because of
the difference in their Social
positions. But she had faith in
him, and did not mind-much.
Followed wonderful weeks
when Mary was so happy that she
scarcely could think.
And then her fance suggested
a trip to Fox Lake, and on that
trip he betrayed her.
''What does it natter?" he
asked. well be married soon"
After that he still came to see
her, but always he kept putting
off and putting off the marriage.
At last there came day when

baby came, it was born in a Chi
cago maternity home, a nameless
child without legal standing.
Still Mary believed in her lover,
and still she hoped for the gold
band that would put her right in
the eyes of the world.
She went on hoping until she
saw in the papers the announce
ment of young Peters marriage
to Florence Mallory Booker, So
ciety belle of Washington, D. C.
Then came the bitterness and
the end of hope. She still heard
from the man who had betrayed
her, occasionally. Sometimes he
enclosed a S. or $40 bill.
Now even that has ceased, and
Mary is left with a nameless child
and an So a week job.
She has filed suit for $4,000
against Peters, charging him with
breach of promise
She doesn't want the money
for herself-but there is the child
to bring up.

Good pubic Roads

Public roads are public necessi-
ties and the benefits to be derived
from their construction in the vari-
Gus counties composing the state is
not only of great value to each
county but also to the state.
Public roads are ready to serve
all classes, they are the common
property of all the people and all
the people have the right and priv
ilege to use them; therefore why
should not all the people bear some
of the expense?
To carry out thisSwork the quickest
and to the best advantage the couu-
ty should issue bonds in order to Sc
cure the necessary funds.
Many OF the counties throughout
the state have already issued bonds
for the Construction OF macadam or
other forms of improved roads.
The result has been that these coun-
ties have been more thoroughly de-
veloped and become much more
prosperous than those which have

The Curfew.l

The quaint old custom of ringing
q curfew bell at evening appears
70 be obsoiescent. Am, appeal for
its re4estahlishment in New York
borough which from changed modern
conditions seems to be a sort Of echo
from the misty past, arouses a
Washington newspaper to the CON-
ment that a4curfew isreally an un-
necessary and possibly an injurious
thing, as follows:
The good folk of the borough of
Bronx, In Greater New York, have
protested to the authorities against
the discontinuanee OF the curfew.
Since thesFinging OF the curfew has
stopped, complain the citizens, their
children do not know when to come
home, as they have long heen &C
cnstomed to depend upon the ben
for notification as to their bedtime.
What are the children to do when
they grow up and move into commu-
mites that have no curfew? seri-
ously Is not the rising generation be
ing jeopardized by too much red
tape and rules? They are con-
fronted on one side by line Of

Reed the Right Man !.

Some reasons advanced by the
Charleston Mall show conclusiyely
that Stuart F. Reed should be re-
nominated for the once Of secretary
OF, state, The Mail says:
Here are Just few of the reasons
why Stuart F. Reed should be re-
nominated and reelected secretary
of state of West virginia: He is
the personthcation of honesty, up
rightedaess and honor-qualities
that should beyessential to the mind
of every Republican voter selecting
a candidate for this high Office.
He possesses the ability to intelli-
gently, discharge the duties Of this
important ofice-a requisite that
should be considered FIRST and fore
most by the voter on June 4 He is,
and has always been. a Republican
never. wavering in his allegiance
to the Grandaold Party, and serving
it to the best that is in him through
each and every campaign. He has
used his Office toi advertise to the
great outside world the splendid re-
sources of his native state. He has
made his, Office the bureau OF infor-
nation that it should be to all who
desire knowledge OF thestate or any
part OF It's business something that
few secretaries Of state, and of any
statef can pride themselves on to a
greater extent than he. He is the
ideal candidate in that he has the
ability and willingness to go out on
the stump in the interest of the
whole ticket and intelligently and
fearlessly talk Rep1blicanism ofithe
first water to the voter something
that every candidate should possess
to reach the goal OF success in the
November election. West Virginia
never had state secretary who
made more enviable record than
Mr., Reed. A man OF strong con-
yicuons, he is not afraic to proclaim
those convictions to the world. He
has never swerved from the path of
rectitude as dictated by the highest
type of American citizenship, and
those who know him best know that
he never will. Exercising the ut
most care in the transaction of the
duties of his office, he has insisted
that all the attaches of his Office
practice the same care, the same
courtesy, the same faithful service
as he gave and is giving to his state.
If the Republicans of West vir-
GINA admire qualities of this kind
in a candidate, they will renoniaate
Stuart F. Reed for another term
in the secretary's office; and If he is
nominated and elected he will give
to his office the same splendid ad-
ministration that he has given for
four years. past; if nominated he
will lend great strength to. the
ticket; in campaigning for himself
he will campaign for every man on
the ticket, from governor down, anc
Will helpeiwin the victory complete
that should come to the party in
November.

Probe Of English Nost1n1ns ;.


The English government recently
appointed a select committee to in
vestigate the sale of patent medi=
cines" (nostrums) and their adver-
tisement The vendors have inn
mediately taken alarm and under
the chairmanship of Sir Joseph
Beechman. the proprietor Of Beech
mans pills., committee o. the
owners of Proprietary Articles Sec.
ton" Of the London Chamber OF
Commerce has met for the purpose
OF defense. There are some 300
firms engaged in the manufacture OF
proprietary medicines and foods. /
The magnitude of the trade interests
involved may be judged from the
fact that the revenue derived from
the tax on proprietary medicines
(there is no tax on proprietary
foodsl amounted last year to. 81
100000.
The, committee. or nostrum-owners
has issued a pamphlet setting forth
the position of its members. This
deals principally with the sugges-
ton made by the medical profession
that the composition of all adver-
tised remedies should be stated on
the label. The attempt to argue
against this suggestion is extraor-
dinarily weak-so weak that 1t is
surprising the nostrum-owners have
not preferred silence. They say
that such a declaration would not
protect the public and would enable
INSCRIPTIONS persons to manufac-
ture similar articles and to trade on
the expediture and reputation of the
original manufacturers.
At present, they say, "the public
know that when they purchase a
well-known proprietary article such
Article is always of uniform quality
and efficiency. II the formula is
thrown open to the world and a. sim
liar article is manufactured by
others there would be varying stand
ards, and the qualities of the article
would not be guaranteed or main
tanned. The pamphlet further
states that "the agitation against
proprietary medicines and foods has
been. mainly propagated by the med
ical profession and is largely
founded on the desire of the pro-
fession to extend their monopoly and
to require the public to purchase
medicines only on a medical prescrip-
ton" The public, it is added. sis
protected at the present time when
the drug proprietary article contains
poison even in an infnitesimal de-
gree, as all such preparations have
to be labeled poison in large let
ters.
The London correspondent of the
Journal of the American Medical
Association points out that the main
charge against the present system
that it allows the most extravagant
and fraudulent claims to cure all
sorts of diseases to be made freely
by the proprietors OF patent medi-
.cines-is- absolutely unmentioned
in this attempt at defense. The sin

ton of tie composition on the label
