CHAPTER X.

When Gloria Kerr returned from
st. Louis she found half a hundred
calling cards awaiting her. The wom-
en- she was anxious to meet had called
while she was out Of town. Those
who delayed their visits until her re-
turn were people whom she readily
recognized as being quite on the
outer fringe of society. In them she
was not interested. When Gloria went
to return the calls of those whom she
had come to know were regarded as
the first families Of Belmont, she
found no one at home.
Somewhat mortified, but making no
confession of her feelings even to
Mrs. Gilbert, Gloria threw herself into
the work of remodeling Locust Lawn
with all the vigor she would other
wise have expended upon social du-
ties. Her active superintendent kept
her a good part of the time in the
country, although she still made her
home with Mrs. Gilbert. Sometimes
she would pass the night at Locust
Lawn out of a sense of duty to her
father. The evenings spent in his
company were not ones of unalloyed
pleasure. More and more she was
coming to acknowledge to herself that
her father did not, could not enter
into her life, into the activities which
gave her pleasure.
Kerr honestly tried, but it was i'm
possible. For one thing, he was en-
gagged in heated political campaign
fighting to retain supremacy. Gloria
on her side, saw that she had beer
rebuffed socially, and was not on Close
enough terms Of intimacy with he
father to tell him about it. The CIR
knew that he had been the social lead
er in Belmont, and she was ashame'
that she had not been able to win al
hearts as he had done

AsQUITH SHOULDERS WAR OFFICE BURDENS
Premier Solves Problem in EngIand's
Crisis With Ulster-Chefs Re-
sign From Army.

London.-After all the many sOlu-
tons of the government crisis which
mad been proposed and discussed, Pre-
mier AsQuith announced solution TO
the house of commons Tuesday which
none of the prophets had suspected or
even expected. The prime minister
himself will assume the burden Of the
war office, in addition to his other
and almost crushing duties. He Will
resign from the house at this critical
stage, when the second reading OF the
home rule bill is about to be taken
up, and will appeal for reelection to
his constituents in East Fife, Scot
land within a few days.
On one side charges Of plot to Sc
duce the army and on the other SIDE
plot to crush the Ulster CovenanterS
were met with denials and cOunter-de-
malls and heated personalities in the
house of commons Monday.
No member of the Irish nationalist
partv, of which John E. Redmond IS
the head. uttered a word in the house.
The Irishmen are letting the English
fight it out alone. Premier Asqulth,
Viscount Morley Colonel Seely, Gen
eral French and General Ewart all
visited the king during the day.
Field Marshal Sir John French
Chief of the imperial general stall
and General Sir John Ewart adjutant
general, declined to withdraw thelI
designations in spite of the army or
der issued Friday, which Viscoun'
Haldane cleverly framed as platform
on which the generals might stanc
with consistency and honor.
It thus became impossible for Col
onel J. E. B. Seely, who was co-slgnel
with them of the assurances to Brlga
der General Cough, that the arm!
would not be used to suppress tn'
Ulster opposition to home rule to re
, tain the secretaryship of war. I'LL
! resignation therefore was accepted
after he had been for some days un
| der fire from the newspapers OF hi
own party, whichs insisted that h
must so.

HER OWN WORK
And is Glad to Do So, as She Was
Denied this Privilege
For Two Years.

Richmond, Ky.-Mrs. N. V. Willis, OF
this place, says: Il suffered for over
three years with womanly trouble, and
tried many different treatments, but
none of them seemed to do me any
good. | had almost given up to die,
when a friend of mine begged me to
try Cardui, the woman's tonic. got
a bottle, and began to feel great deal
better after the first few doses.
then got four bottles, and after TAX
ing these | was cured.
| don't know what a female pain IS
now, do all of my work, eat anything
i want, and feel like Is year old girl
never expect to be without Cardui
in my house as long as live, as
firmly believe it saved my life, and
will praise it to all of my suffering
lady friends"
Cardui is a purely vegetable remedy,
containing no harmful mineral prod
ucts. It's ingredients act in a helping,
building way, on the womanly consti.
tuition. 1t has been relieving woman
" troubles for over half a century,
during which time it has proven Of
more than ordinary value as a tonic
for weak women.

you've got to knife your Ticket
SOS these fool reformeTs cant carry
Belmont"
"What'd I get out OF it," drawled
out the senator.
Seven votes in the house and two
in the senate"
Again the apostle Of practical poll
tics sat back and took stock or the
situation. Belmont was nothing to
him. 1t mattered nothing at all to
him how the town went as far as city
affairs we're concerned. Nine votes
were not to be despised. He was eau
tious. however, and wanted paTtlcu-
lars.
How you going to deliver" he
asked.
We've got that many to run this
fall and I'll let the opposition have 1t
their own way. Name your men now
if you want to-"
THAT many's bound to make the
legislature ours on joint ballot"
Kerr knew this, but he was quite
willing to change the political com
plexion of the legislature OF a great
state, perhaps hamper the governor
in wise and necessary legislation and
keep the state from having a senator
of it's own choice, all to hold Belmont
for his own. McMinitry was no less
willing to change victory into defeat
and hand the city over to the rapacity
of the Interurban Railway Company
only to retain his senatorial office.
"An right" he consented, but
you've got to do two things: take
care of some of the boys and muzzle
the News. l can't have that paper
making trouble for me-"
I'll take care Of the boys all right
and I've told you what I'm going tc
do-I'm going to buy the News"
Can you?"
1--WE got to have it, and I don't care
how, but it's got to be mine"
Got any idea?" asked the senator
mo, but every mans got his price
Jim, in some form or other" If N
had time for reflection, David ker
would have enjoyed this remark, sine
it was given humorous turn by tn
fact that he had just discovered tn
price of the junior senator from nj
own state.

have anything to say about it."
well, you don't seem to be going
about it very actively" retorted Kerr
with the nearest approach to sarcasm
he permitted himself during the inter-
view. Even if the legislature is con-
trolled by your party, you've got a
fight on your hands. There's Con-
gresham Jenkinson and old man Ora
ham down in Washington County.
He's almost as strong as you are, and
his part of the state amt had no rec
ogpition for long time"
McMinitry did not answer at once
He got up from the table and walked
to the window. When at last he
turned to Kerr the question had been
gone over thoroughly in his mind.

Contradictory Terms.

An American visitor to Cambridge,
England, sought explanation of some
unfamiliar terms, which genial Don
was delighted to elucidate. Full
term he explained, SIS three-quar-
tiers of a term, and the May week
is the first fortnight in June. A day
of general admission is the day on
which men leave the university, an
ordinary degree is one conferred by
special exam, and an inspector OF
art is one who has been an arts stu
dent for at least six years

In the last days of the campaign the

In the last days of the campaign the |
anti-Kerr leaders learned with sur
prise that Senator McMinitry, their |
state boss, was coming to Belmont for
a day. They had not sent for him,
and were at loss to account for the
visit. He had not taken any one into
his confidence, merely saying he was
coming on business. Why he should
journey from Washington to Belmont
for so short a stay they could not I'M
derstand He gave it out that he was
making flying visit to his home, but
he came straight to Belmont. Only
two men besides the senator knew his
mission, the emssary who carried the
message to Washington and the man
who sent for him. David Kerr wanted
to see him.
1t was only three days before cleo
ton when Senator McMinitry visited
Belmont. He went to the Hotel Bel
mont and took a suite Of rooms, but
did not register. After talking to Da-
vid Kerr over the telephone, he or
dered an early luncheon for two served
in his private parlor. Kerr arrived
before the table was spread and i'm
mediately began to explain the sItua-
ton. All through the meal the two
men talked, McMinitry questioning
and Kerr explaining.
Practical politics was the business
Of Senator James McMinitry just as
it was Of Mr.. David Kerr. Jim Nc
Minitry liked to pose before the pub
lie and to make fiamboyant speeches
Kerr preferred to sit in his dingy real
estate office and pull the strings that
made the puppets dance. To him

how | can help you this trip"
Kerr slowly set down his glass OIL
water and Strengthened up in his
chair, for he knew that the deal was
now under way. He had played fail
with Jim McMinitry and told him JUS
the exact situation.
