There was no chance to get another

one-horse cart driven by peasant
who said he would take us to Verviers,
where he thought we could get train
for Liege. He gave us some crusts OF

his sensations; however, during the
past few days things had occurred
which had given a new turn to his
thoughts. And he found himself scru-
tinizing his relations with Winifred
with greater care than usual.
He had been married five years, and
his marriage had been failure; there
was no doubt about that. Winifred' s
parents had been poor. She was coun-
try-bred, too, and the plunge into New
indeed. She ought to have been CRATE
ful, at least, even IL she had no love
for him.
John thought rather grimly about
those past five years. There had
never been a child. There might have
been, only Winifred was lazy and lux
urious, and seemed to think Of moth
ing but her woman's clubs and tea
parties. John had nothing in common
with any Of her friends. And she
never hesitated to sacrifice his COM
fort to them.
Yes, it was strange, her coming
home to dinner. Usually she dined
alone, before he came in. He was a
very busy man, and had been buster
than usual until that evening. In fu-
ture he did not expect to be SO busy.

posite his wife at the table. He no.

Hardships in Their Thrilling
Flight From Carlsbad
Through Belgium.

New York-James A. Patten, the
former wheat operator of Chicago,
who was one of the American refugees
returning by the Red Star liner Fin
land, told thrilling story of his es-
cape from Germany after war had
been declared. With Mrs. Patten he
left Carlsbad on August 2 and travelled
via Herbesthal and Liege, where they
arrived just as hostilities had begun.
1--WE left Carlsbad for Nuremberg by
train, as the authorities took my auto

know the war had broken out then, as
no news of the situation was given

"Trouble began as soon as we
struck the German border. We reached
Nuremburg at 9 p. m. and were
