died. In consequence of his bitterness
toward his relations no one was to be
informed of his death, nor was any one

said.
In his viii he had not left penny

him, too, she is at the cross roads.
They are ruined.
In a sudden passionate abandonment
he begs her to let him take her away
out of her troubles. Go with him, and
when his wife sets him free he will
marry her. For moment Ethel shows
she feels the temptation. Poverty to
her is horrible. She almost yields.
Then another mood follows, and she
refuses. He pleads.

brought up with the idea that he
would never have to do anything for
his livelihood, he came down from his
university with slight knowledge of
grammar and a tennis racket he had
won as runnerup in tournament.
These were his only assets II life.
To be suddenly confronted with beg
sgars gave him a thrill of discomfort
he never thought he could have been
made to feel. Taking courage from
his sisters resolve, he decides to work,
too, to preserve the family fortunes.
Into the pathetic family scene came
Mr.. Christian Brent, man of dis
tinction, of breeding and of wealth.
Left alone with Ethel, he tells her that
the previous night he had had the final
quarrel with his wife They had not

stand She had heard gossip about

sisted by representatives of the en-
ployers and employees. Such law is
uniformly opposed by the representa-
tives of labor on the ground that it is
entirely in favor of the employer, who
utilizes the period or delay to make
preparations for breaking the strike.
1t is also insisted that such delay
would be in violation of that provision
of the constitution of the United States
which prohibits involuntary servitude.
except for crime"
Regarding trades unions and en-
ployers' associations, the commission
announces that it Is making a compre-
hensive study of a large number o.
typical organizations. The commission
says:
Against many of these associations
and unions grave charges Of serious
import to the welfare of the country,
if they be proved true, have been laid
before the commission, and it is only
by the most painstaking, impartial and
examination that the facts
can be developed, and such examina-
ton we are now prosecuting"
The commissions experts also are
looking into questions of unorganized
labor, scientific management in shops
as it effects employees, women and
children in industry, land problems,
unemployment, social legislation and
labor and the law. OF unemployment
the report says:
Nothing comes 50 clear to the com
mission as the imperative necessity of
organizing market for labor on a
modern business basis, 50 that there

will be no vacant jobs and idle work
ers in the same community at the
same time, or within distance where
the transportation is practicable. The
concensus of opinion is that legisla-
ton for national system of labor ex-
changes is an immediate necessity.
The plan of the commission proposes
to establish bureau of employment
in the department of labor, which
would cooperate with state and NUM-
cipal employment Offices, regulate pri-
vate agencies doing Interstate BUSH
ness and establish clearing houses for
distributing information, uniting all
labor exchanges into one national sys-

tually all witnesses, with the excep-
ton of those representing the Indus
trial Workers of the World, to be in
accord. AS to any suggested method
of application of that principle, how
ever, wide divergence Of opinion was
noted. In this connection the report
adds:
"A majority of the best informed
witnesses who have appeared before
the commission have insisted, how
ever, upon the necessity of securing a
proper basis upon which such collec-
tive bargaining can be carried out. 1t
is impossible to analyze these sugges-
tons at this time, but it may be well
to note that practically all of the most
experienced witnesses have insisted
upon the necessity for strong organi-
cation of both employers and en-
ployes as a fundamental basis for the
successful conduct of collective bar
gaining"
The report takes up in detail criti-
cisms of existing trades unions which
it says came from employers and rad
icals who advocate other forms of la
Dor organization. There are eighteen
detailed criticisms in this list with
an additional list of seven specific OBJ
jections to present labor union meth
DDS made by the Industrial Workers
of the World ....
Paralleling these lists, twenty-one
detailed criticisms of employers or
CARNATIONS are presented, coming
from labor representatives. The labor
men, however, were unanimous in ia
voring strong organizations by en-
ployers to further collective agree
ments with employees.

While virtually unanimous agree
ment of witnesses was found in favor
of the formation of federal commits
sion of mediation and Cancellation, the
report points out that practically ev-
cry witness has expressed the strong
est disapproval of any form of com
pulsory arbitration. Arbitration was
suggested only as last resort and
then to be purely voluntary. Wit
nesses agreed that mediators should
be bipartisan; that they should have
full power of investigation; that their
contact with industry or industries
with which they are expected to deal
should, if possible, act before dis
pute has come to a head, and that ade-
auate inducements should be offered
to obtain the best possible men.

Just before she died she wrote to
Nathaniel Kingsnorth for the first
time and asked him to help them. He
replied, "You have made your bed-lie
in it!'
The remembrance haunts the dying
ment. If that child is still alive he
wishes to see her before he dies.
They make inquiries and find the
child, now grown to young woman
hood, is living in very poor circum-
stances in the city of New York.
He sends money for her passage to
England with a request to her father
to let her visit him.
The father consents.
Before the girl reaches England, how
ever, Nathaniel Kingsnorth dies.
Now, in his will he directs that the
sum of $1,000 year be- paid to any
lady of breeding and refinement who
will undertake the training of the girl
in the best traditions of the Kings
north family.
He also directs that the training
should continue to the age of twenty
one if she showed any desire to acquire
the education necessary for her posi-
ton, and when she reached that age
she should inherit the sum of $4,000 a
year.

50 N June /, 1912, Mrs. Chichester
sat in her morning room in
u Regal villa, Scarboro, Eng

Regal villa, Searboro, Eng
land, facing the supreme crisis
of her life.
In her hand lay an open letter; be-
side her stood her son and daughter,
panic stricken.
The bank containing every penny her
dead husband had left her had closed
its doors. They. We're beggars. She
must live on charity the rest of her
life with relatives she disliked and
who disliked her. Tears were stream
ang down her face.
Her daughter, Ethel, took the ca
lamity calmly. She would work or
teach children-anything.
Alaric, her son, was indignant. What
right had any bank to close its doors
especially that particular one? 1t
ought to be made to open them again
and at least pay them what they in
trusted to them. They should do this
even if they did not pay any one else.
Alaric could not understand any one
causing him a moments discomfort.
That was the fault of his mothers
training. At school and at college he
had done just as he pleased. Provid-
ed with all the money he needed,

other one of the most pathetic, dis
reputable Irish terriers it had ever
been the distinguished Chichester fam
ily's misfortune to lay eyes on,
And this was her niece.
This was the creature Nathaniel de
sired her to train.
But for the prospect of abject misery
she would have turned the little girl
out of her house.
The thought of the thousand pounds
a year restrained her.
"What is your name|
peg, maam," replied the little red
headed girl.
Mrs. Chichester sent for the servant.
Take away those parcels and that
dog" she said.
Peg clutched the little animal to her
''No, not Michael" she said. "You
mustn't take Michael away from me.
He was given to me by my father"
And so began Pegs career in Lon
don. 1t was month of conflict.
She had only one bright little spot
in the history of that wretched month
"a friendship for an old friend of the
family whom she only knows as
Jerry"
Jerry" brought her home one night
from a dance. The house was fast
asleep.
Just as he was taking his leave of
her he heard a footstep on the path.
Warming her to hide he turned to
the window and found Christian Brent
coming up the step.
"Hello, Brentr' said Jerry. 'Just
coming from the dance? / didn't see
you there"
mo" replied Brent 81 was rest
less and just strolled here" He tried
to pass Jerry and enter the house, but
Jerry intercepted him. Come with
me to the road,' he said coolly; 1.-THE
house is asleep"
They walked to the road, where
Jerry saw Brent's Mercedes car wait
ing at the bend.
Jerry watched him go away, then
walked up and down the road, watch
| ing the Chichester windows as if won
dering if Peg were all safe.
| Meanwhile Peg, the moment Jerry
had taken Brent away, crept quietly
upstairs. Just as she got to the top
| Ethel appeared fully dressed and carry
ing a small travelling bag.
She ordered Peg down into the room
and demanded what she was doing
there.
Peg, divining why Ethel was there,
| asked her interloctor what she was
doing fully dressed at that time OF
night.
"Were We going away with that man.
He was here minute ago and Mr.
Jerry took him away"
"Who was hereY'
"Mr. Brent Were you going away
with him?"
Ethel burst with tears and poured
out her own wretched story. For the
first time the two girls opened their
hearts to each other and mingled their
| tears.
Reused by falling receptacle, Mrs.
Chichester and Alaric came down into
the room and found the two girls.
Peg made up her mind instantly to
save Ethel She declared that she
had taken Ethel's hat and cloak and
bag to the dance with Mr.. Jerry.
Mrs. Chichester was furious.
Later Peg was confronted by Jerry
and the family

Jerry introduced himself to her as
the chief executor of the late Mr..
Kingsnorth's will and made her ac-
quainted, with the conditions of the
will.
Peg was indignant when she learned
that Mrs. Chichester was paid thou
sand pounds year for treating her
so shamefully.
They all begged her to stay, until at
last Ethel told her that the day she

came into the house they did not have
penny. She had literally fed and
housed them for the past month.
Then Jerry told the Chichesters that
he happened to be also a director of
their bank and that it would shortly
reopen its doors and every depositor
would be paid in full.
The family were immensely relieved.
Now there was no occasion to house
Peg any longer.
