BILE. And Lucy was just beginning
where he was now.
The thought of those endless pat

idly the young man had stuck to his
post, hoping for better things.
He had wanted to become a sales
man. DevOe, the sales manager, to
whom he had had a letter of introduce

The new girl in the pattern depart
ment was so patheticaIy tired. Tom
Roberts watched her furtively all that
first day of her arrival, as she stood
at the next desk to his own, YEARLY
sorting and checking the patterns for
the Ladies Fashion Realm Co.
The other young men watched her
less secretly. In fact, winks and
nudges were thick in the pattern de-
partment that morning. For the new
girl was undeniably a beauty. The
other girls noticed that fact, too.
She was hardly more than Is, and
there was an air of breeding about
her which more than one girl in
stinctiveIy resented. Lucy Whitman
was, in fact, born to better things
than this siX-dOllar position. Her ia
ther had been a small shOpkeepeT
with ambitions for his children. When
he died Lucy had to get position
and the only one which offered was
that of waitress in a restaurant. She
stood that life for two months. But
it was impossible for girl Of her ap-
pearance to endure it longer. Besides,
the proprietor was angry that she re-
fused to make up to his customers.
A pretty girl meant increased trade
and he saw no harm in her accept
ing the cheap badinage of the clerks
who frequented his place.
Lucy had always resolved to study
stenography, but when she got home
she was too fatigued to do anything
more than slip into bed and fall asleep

Editorial Opinion
REUNITED REPUBLICANS.

From the Washington Post.
The Republican party will meet in
Chicago week before the Democratic
party meets in st. Louis, and will define
the issues upon which IL will attempt
to elect successor to Woodrow Viii
son. The convention will do its best
to choose candidate who personifes
the reunited and aggressive spirit of
the Republican party.
Republicans everywhere will approve
the aggressive attitude of the national
committee in arranging for an carly
convention at Chicago. The forthcoming
struggle will be as fierce as any political
campaign ever conducted in the Tinted
States. Chicago, where the Republican
party split open, is the place where the
breach should be healed The memories
Of the passions that led to disaster will
chasten the delegates next year aud con.
strain them to sacrifice everything to
the cause of victory.
IL is fitting that the opposition should
make the attack. " need not wait for
the Democrats TO nominate Mr. Wilson
or publish their platform. What the
Democrats win do is as well known now
or will be as this session Of Congress.

main question before the people Is what
the Republican party will do in selecting
its champion and stating It's position
That party has much 10 gain by energy
boldnoss and initiative. IL would lose
much by hesitation or feebleness in dc.
filming the issues or by choosing a weak
leader through compromise.
The Republicans feel instnctively
that defeating Mr.. Wilson is no small
mans task. They recognize the fact
that circumstances have given him
some strong weapons. They believe,
however, that they can win, and they
give proof of their confidence by return
ing to the scene of their disaster and
making the first move in the coming
battle.

Great Britain is calling up her re-
serves of money as well as her re-
serves of men. There is a coincidence
more than interesting in the COM
pletiOn Of the campaign for adding
millions or voluntary recruits to the
British army and the Inauguration of
the scheme to render the vast private
investments of British subjects avail
able for national use to cope with the
financial strain OF the war. Both are
Enthusiastically significant Of the British
attitude toward the stupendous con-
fiict.
1t was obvious from the outbreak
of the war that If circumstances re-
quired it, such Z resort would be had
to the liquidation of British foreign
investment represented by fixed cap
ital securities. In the first national
balance sheet which Lloyd George as
Chancellor of the Exchequer drew up,
by way of exhibiting the nations finan-
cial resources for the conduct OF the
war a leading place was assigned to
the item Of foreign investments, par
ticularly American investments. His
successor. Chancellor McKenna, has
simply developed I'm the form of a
definite plan an idea which existed
from the first. and when the govern
ment has made all possible use of the
American and Canadian securities
which il can obtain there will remain
an immensely valuable amount of
South American. South African and
Australian investments to be liquidated
in time or borrowed upon.
Yet in order to achieve the results
which it desires il is obvious that the

will show.
To what extent the Chamber will dsintegrate as

Another important thing be taken into considera-

The contention made by the Chamber is that the

useful purpose OF placing upon the court records def

that those responsible for drastic action taken by
