He stuffed the bills into her clasped
hands. She tried to close her hands
against it with sudden instinct
which she could not fathom. tried to
draw away from the money, but his
fingers were the stronger, and. laugh
ing, he kissed her and Strengthened up
to put the balance of the money in his
pocket. She looked at the bills, while
a slow flush of crimson came mp over
her face. Why should this have en-
barrassed and Inundated herr, It
seemed absurd, for this was a part OF
marriage.
Ned sat beside her and put bis arms
around her. and she held up her lips to
be kissed. Suddenly she buried her
head on his shoulder and cried. Some
thing had been swept away from her,
something had been broken. The man
had given, and she had received.

1t had been all right for June to coax
her mother and wheedle her father,

Yes, Ned would give her all he could

It to her! She would be the recipient

arrived at the startling fact that this
was the status Of every wife. 1t was
a most disGuieting thought, destructive
of self respect. 1t was unbearable.

braced himself against the arm Of the
seat for fifteen minutes. while the tired
head dropped lower and lower. Poor
little girl! Her neck would be stiff

ever SO gently, but the gentleness was
an unnecessary precaution When he
tried to shift her she slid into his arms
without flicker OF ner eyelids and lay
there sleeping like a baby, her long
lashes curving on her cheeks. her red

WEAKNESS OF F-4 SUBMARINE
Board of Inquiry Makes Report Or
Inflated Boat.

Washington, D. c. Sept. SERIOUS
weaknesses common to all four of the
Navy's F type of submarine are
pointed out in the report, made pub
lie today, of the board of inquiry
which made in investigation at Hon
olulu Immediately after the loss of
the F-4 with her crew of % last
March. So far as could be deter
mined before the boat was raised The
board found that every possible pre-
caution had been taken within the
limitations Of design, and the report
pays tribute to the efficiency of tha
men who lost their lives.
With the F-4 now in drydock at
Honolulu, a new board, headed by
Rear Admiral Bousch, has been ap-
pointed by the Navy.
Although the first board reported
that it could draw no conclusion as
to the cause of the accident RESPONSE.
BILE for the sinking the possibility that
the crew might have been killed by
chlorine gas is indicated in the finding
that:
"Sea water has at times seeped into
the cells of the storage batteries of
the boats Of the F class causing the
evolution of chlorine gas, which is
quickly destructive of life"
