''Is it true that you are going to
adopt twins?" l asked.
YES" she answered, "but let's
don't talk about it until we get into
the car"
She fairly ran down the hall to the
elevator, and when we got into the
big limousine she turned to me and
burst into torrent of tears. Sobs
shook her frame. She could not
speak.
For PHYS sake, what is the mat
ter, Eliene?" 1 asked. Surely you
are not crying this way because you
are going to adopt some children.
Have you had a quarrel with Harry
over it? Have you chosen babies in
stead of husband? What are you
making all this fuss about?"
Harry don't know l am going to
take the children" at last she found
time between her sobs to answer,
but l am taking them home today,
nevertheless, and I know he will let
me Keep them, IoT, MarSle, Lney De-

man who used to be a maid to his
mother, but l shut my eyes to it all.
You see, had more to make me I'M
happy than you thought. However,
two days ago these baby boys were
born to the girl, who, it seems, had
broken with Harry about six months
ago, and in giving birth to them the
mother died.
An older sister came to the house
yesterday to see Harry, and, as he
was out, she told me her story. then

his speech he says: Il believe the

Mr.. Gooding has been engaged I'm

No Return to Barbarism,

Would the parents of the children of
Washington vote now. on q referendum,
to return to the old style celebration
of Independence day? Yesterday every
body had fun and suffered no injuries,
There was a lull at the hospitals and
the Police Courts were scarcely ;usti-
fed in keeping open In the morning.
The day was peaceful. but pleasant in
all the aspects of holiday. Abundant
amusement was afforded to everybody.
and without a heavy outlay of money
for senseless semakers.
There was no falling of in patriot
ism because the city was quiet and
well behaved. No small boy failed to
understand the meaning of the ami
versary simply because he was not al
lowed to discharge fireworks under the
windows of the neighbors and put his
own life and those Of other children in
jeopardy.
Counting up the cost Of the two
kinds of celebration. that of the bar
barrie period. when there was practical
license to burn all the powder that
could be bought. and that of yester-
day. with provision of sensible pleas
ure for multitude, there Is no ground
for doubt as to the preference. In
former days each parent spent dollars
for fireworks that were from morning
TO night a source of anxiety and often
the cause of terrible suffering. Yes
terday a delightful city-wide celebra-
ton. with opportunity for many thou
sands to participate enjoyably, was af-
forded at a per capita cost of few
cents.
Whether the cost of yesterdays COM
munity celebration was great or small.
the fact remains that 1t involved no
sacrifices of life or limb. that it was
not accompanied by destructive fires
and that 1t did not make thousands Of
people unhappy because OF the deafen-
ing. nerve rackins explosions that
formerly accompanied the day from
dawn to midnight There will never
be return to the barbarism of the
so-called old fashioned Fourth. in this
city at least.
