The rugs for the camp were duly
purchased and the Randalls left the
store by another entrance.
Truly, Tom Randall was reaping
the rewards of obedience, for IL he
had not accompanied his mother on
this quest he would not have discov-
cred Nellie Eustace.
All that afternoon he devoted to
tracing Berkely Eustace and his af-
fairs, and 1t was just at dusk that he
received the clew that perhaps un.
raveled the mystery Of Nell's disap,
pearance. Judge Fenton, an old
friend of his fathers, happened into
the office and it was through him
that Tom learned the story.
"Berkely Eustace?" asked the judge,
reminiscently. Yes Boston Eus-
tace-went all to pieces in the street
a couple of years ago. Swept clean,
everything he had. Seems he was
abroad with his daughter when he
heard the news, and he went off his
head. She brought him home AMI
he's been in sanitarium ever since.
Plucky girl, sir. Went into business
somewhere or other and supports her
self. Proud as Lucifer."
"And Mr.. Eustace?" asked Tom.
"Dead-happened year ago"
Thank YOU" said Tom simply.
The judge eyed him keenly "Bet
it's the girl" he muttered.
Several days afterward Tom Ran.
dali appeared again in the main aisle
at Wood & MAYORS. He approached
the lace counter without hesitation.
The girl with the golden coroner
was alone at the counter and her
back was turned to him while she ad-
justed boxes on the shelves.
Tom laid his hat on the counter
and, removing glove felt in his
pocket for the scrap of lace he had
begged from his mystified mother.
III you please" began Tom meekly.
The girl turned. A lovely color
flooded her face and her gray eyes
shone like stars. Tom smiled
"My mother sent me to inquire If
her lace had arrived" he said.
Il am sorry - no - it could not
be matched" faltered the girl, all the
color gone from her face by now. She
leaned against the counter.
THANK you," he said Then he

There was silence-a long silence.

conclusion.
DR.. GLADDEN. and Mr.. Sunday are
fundamentally different. Each is sin
cere in his convictions that the diner
ences of belief hold them apart. Dis
interested observers, however, incline
to the opinion that it is temperament
rather than theology that separates
them.
While a man Of deep and tende
emotions, DR.. GLADDEN. Is essentially
intellectual.
While q man of very considerable
intellectual attachments, Rev. Mr.. Sun
day Is essentially emotional. He has
the advantage in this, that more peo
pie are controlled habitually through
the emotions than through the mind
therefore, he has the lead in point Of
supporters.
DR.. GLADDEN. has said that it Is toe
early to judge definitely the results
Of Rev. Mr.. Sundays work. Yet, this
must be apparent: either good car
come Of evil, which is a conclusion
most men are loath to accept; or else
that from which good proceeds must
be itself worthy. From this deduc
ton it seems impossible to escape.
No one regrets that Rev. Mr.. Sun
day came to Columbus.
No one regrets that Dr. GLADDEN. con
tinues to reside in Columbus, where
he is generally esteemed the first
citizen of the city.

Eastern railroads have secured from
the interstate commerce commission
consent to increase their freight rates
5 per cent on nearly half their freight
tonnage and il Is blazened to the world
that we will now have prosperity. The
western roads with appetites sharpened
by anticipation have started a suit for
the same privilege.
Whether or not advancing labor
costs have made it necessary and
equitable for railroads TO increase their
freight rates IS very complicated
question Clifford Thorne is very con-
vincing in the showing he makes in
his contention that the railroads Go not
need TO increase prices # they Will base
their needs upon an average period
instead OF upon the abnormal condi-
scare. Il Is certain that every line OF
industry IS IN need of tonic to its
earnings in times like these and yet
the tendency OF prices IS downward in
stead of upward.
The plea that raising railroad rates

Railroads Go rot create prosperity or
anything else They haul 1t Ii in
creased railroad rates would bring
prosperity any big town could boom
itself by doubling its street car fares.
Increased employment upon the rail-

the effect upon an individuals pocket

When prosperity IS abroad in the

tracks and order new cars, but their
activity is the result OF prosperity and
not the cause OF IL Give railroads in

will do more business. Increased
freight rates will have about as much
to do with creating prosperity for the
country as boost in the price OF gaso-
lene makes prosperous times for the
nen who own automobiles.
