Ind virtues and vices showing out
through them"
! And Samson met every gaze with
smoldering savagery. searching for
some one who might be laughing at
him openly, or even covertly, instead
OF behind his back. The long-suffer-
ing fighting lust in him craved oppor-
tunity to break out and relieve the
pressure on his soul. But no one
laughed.
One afternoon late in November. a
hint of blizzards swept snarling down
the Atlantic seaboard from the polar
foes, with wet flurries Of snow and
rain. Off on the marshes where the
Kenmore club had its lodge, the live
decoys stretched their clipped wings,
and raised their green necks restively
into the salt wind, and listened. With
dawn, they had heard, faint and far
away, the first notes of that wild
chorus with which the skies would ring
until the southerly migrations ended
the horizon-distant honking of high
flying water fowl
Then it was that Farbish dropped
in with marching orders, and Samson,
yearning to be away where there were
open skies, packed George Lescott's
borrowed paraphernalia, and prepared
to leave that same night.
While he was packing, the telephone
rang, and Samson heard Adrienne's 8
voice at the other end Of the wire.
Where have you been hiding?" she
demanded. I'll have TO send truant
officer after you"
I've been very busy" said the man,
"and / reckon, after all, you can't
civilize a wolf. I'm afraid I've been
wasting your time.
Possibly, the miserable tone Of the
voice told the girl more than the
words
You are having season with the
blue DEVILS" she announced. you've
ben cooped up too much. This wind
ought to bring the ducks, and"
I'm leaving tonight" Samson told
her.
1T would have been very nice OF
you to have run up to say good-by.'
she reproved. But III forgive you
If you call me up by long distance
You will get there early in the morn
ing. Tomorrow, I'm going to Philadel
phia over night. The next night,
shall be at the theater. Coll me UP
after the theater, and tell me how
you like it."
1t was the same old frank2ess and
friendliness of voice. and the same
old note like the music of a reed in
strument. Samson felt so comforted
and reassured that he laughed through
the telephone.
I've been keeping away from you,'
he volunteered. because I've had a
lapse into savagery, and haven't been
fit to talk 70 you When l get back
I'm coming up TO explain. And, in the
rleantme, I'll telephone"
On the train Samson was surprised
to discover that. after all, he had Mr.
William Farbish for a travelling com
paDlon. That gentleman explained
that he had found an opportunity to

BUYING LOWER CALIFORNIA.

The old proposal that the United States should ac luire Lower California is receiving mere attention lat y There are two reasons given for such step On of particular interest to California and the other be country in general

scANolNAvlAN DEMOCRACY.

Thore may soou be women in the Danish parliament The constitutional amendment recently adopted by the Diet not only grants the of the country ,he right to vote national elections but makes them elig ibla to membership in Chat governing body national campaign is now in progress with this amendment as main issue IL is cosdered certain that the Diet to be elected will ratir the amendement
 This Is in line with the steady progress Of the Scan dnayan countries toward the complete democracy that can exist only when all political inequality between the sexes disappears. The women of Norway already enjoy the full rights of citizenship In Sweden as Denmark hey already possess municipal suffrage; Sweden may be expected soon to follow the Danish example There win then be a considerable section of Ewope-gener- ally regarded as the most democratic and enlightened section providing good object lesson for American democracy.
 The number of persons anected by the Danish policy is small as we reckon populations. In New York state alone fall the male citizens will vote on similar measure for the enfranchsemeat of three and half times as many women as there are in Den mark Such popular movements however, travel in waves and a small splash may ripple far. The Danish example win have influence determining the result this year in several American states.

 This declaration is linked logically with the notice served on the German government by the President Feb TO- that if in pursuance of the proposed zono submarine campaign Aheilcah NthHels anu lNeH NciL destroyed this country would hold Germany "strct accountability" The note Of May 1s demands the ac counting for the offences committed in spite of that warning.

The people who did these things didn't
need any pity; they were as absolutely happy
as it was possible for mortaEs to be. They
were the sort Of folks who gathered about

books, and games and woFk-baSket OF two.
and they didn't have the call of the moving
picture show, nor the cabaret, nor the cheap
excursion, to take from them the delights of
family life
These were the people who lived so closely
with each other. that the question of wom-
ans right to live otherwise, never entered the
head nor mind of any Of them. Father, as
head of the home, was all that brave man
should be, and while he may have been In
some instances tyrant, for the most part he
was truly, guide. philosopher and friend"
And Mother-weFl, she was Just what
mother should be. too
Probably, because simplicity was almost the
universal keynote, the capacity for ENJOYING
simple things was keener Money was not
depended on to so absolutely supply every
thing; the mind and the heart seemed to
enter into all plans that were made for the
individual, or for the family generally. There
was no life but the home life for those who
