Tears rushed to Amy's eyes. 1T is

the floor beside her friend.
"Well?" asked Amy.

you be reconciled?"

She ratified the teacups and made
a fuss over pouring another cup Of
tea for her guest Evelyn Beers
arose and Strengthened her hat be-
fore a Venetian mirror. A vista OF
the adjoining room was reflected In
the mirror and what she saw there
held Evelyn petrified with wonder
1t was a long room furnished as q
studio, and standing before an easel
with palette and brushes in his idle
fingers was Amy's husband. He
wore paint-stained blouse and as
his patient brown eyes met the as
tonished ones of Evelyn Beers In the
mirror, he calmly wiped his brushes
and came forward.
Evelyn turned swiftly to Amy.
Il thought you said you didn't

Amy was beside her In an instant.

She looked from the familiar sur

"Oh, what a dreadful mistake,"
cried Amy with burning cheeks, for
the situation had its ludicrous side.

laughed awkwardly, but a pulse
throbbed in his throat Just above his
stiff collar.
Amy's fair face was hidden in her
hands. "Oh. Allen" she sobbed. Il

to proceed.
However you express 1t, Evelyn"
he said more kindly, you cannot
deny that 1t Is money-or rather my
lack of it-that is separating us. But
perhaps. as you say, 1t is better now
than later. I suppose men do not
always understand such things. I
know I never dreamed of my mother
as being unhappy or overburdened."
That evening Frederick Woodland
sat in the silent little white house.
Everything was as his mother had
left 1t. Perhaps only those who are
blessed with such a mother as his can
realize what q homo means. How
many hours he had spent here since
the house was tenantless! And now
Evelyn had said she could not come!
He did not moan or bewail his fate.
He jammed his hands deep into his
pockets, and looked straight ahead
with hard, unseeing eyes.

1t seemed like sacrilege when the
girl tremblingly begun her search
among his possessions for the key. In
a small box 1t lay, with picture OF
his mother and-one of herself! She
kissed them all in infinite relief. Then
she fastened TO the little white house.

Sugar Trust
Hearing Begun

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE taking of
testimony In tho Federal action for the
dissolution of the American Sugar Rein
ing Company was commenced here today
before Special Examiner Wilson Il. Brice.
This action. together with the suit
against the L. s. Steel Corporation,
makes two big cases brought by the gov
ernment for the dissolution of the two
so-ealled trusts that are now under way
In this city.
These two cases are brought ,nnder the
provisions OF the Sherman antitrust law
and are expected to continue for many
months. but the trial of the so-caled
sugar trust is expected to offer fewer
features oil popular interest than that of
the steel corporation, because most of the
evidence sought by the government Is
understood to be of a documentary ma
ture.
Much of the evidence that was devel-
oped at the recent trial of the sugar of
ficials under indictments for restraining
Interstate trade will be brought out
again.
