Gelestia's great eyes asked questions TO
which Mrs. BaSter gave no direct answer.
'Pvet done all can for YOU" she said.

1t did not take Celestia long to eat her
breakfast and mako her exceedingly
simple toilette. But during these processes
she thought and thought. until things be-
came clear to her. and she knew that she
had been in grave PERIL.
Mrs. Baxter burst into sudden tears at
Celestia's departure.
Il may never SEQ you again. But I'll
never forget you-oh, Two been q wicked
woman; but I'll try not to be wicked any

And she thrust the bills which sweetzer
had given her into Celestia's hands.

said Celestia simply. "Good-by and God
bless you"
Her eyes bright as stars she went out
into the early sunshine. and walked
slowly in an easteriy direction, her head
high and the band OF Jewels cleaning
brightly RcEOss her brow.
By the time she had passed under the

show her any disrespect at first perhaps
because she had such n royal look of
selfssufficienoy. But as the crowi in
creased persons in its outskirts who
could not see her well, began to make
themselves unpleasant. And this example
began to be followed by those who we're
nearer to her. She was not angry or
frightened, but progress became more
and more difficult, and she looked this
way and that for way of escape.
The door of mean little house stood
wide open. Furniture was being carried
out of the house. and there was a middle
aged woman who kept dabbing her eye
with her apron.
Celestial made a dart for the open door,
the crowd now hooting and threatening,
reached It, closed It behind her. and was
alone in a narrow hallway with the
woman who wept,
''What is the trouble?" she asked
gently. ..,. t...
The woman's eyes wldened with wonder
as she looked upon her chance visitor,

ECLIPSES ARABIAN NIGHTS
Twelve Years Ago Not a Dollar Of
FOrd's Millions Existed.

The latest story about the Ford Motor
reads more like one of Schehera-
zede's fairy tales to her hloodthirsty Sui
tan Schariar than like a prosiac statement
of modern business, SAYS the Springfield
Republican. Indeed. It eclipses the Ara
bian Nights romances, for even the Asia
tic Imagination never pictured such a
vision of wealth as this that is spread
before tho eyes Of Detroiters
Fancy nor history has approached the
marvel Of the Ford growth. From nothing
an idea in the brain of one man has de-
veloped into the tangibility Of Industrial
buildings TO which no geniS- built palaces
could compare. of seigntorial estates. of
vast and intricate mechanical plants. ~
worldwide employment for thousands up
on thousands Of people, Of money in stor-
ed cold cash beside the pile IF which the
tabled treasures Of Croesus would he an
anthill. Of luxury for some and ~ new
convenience for the multitude.
And all this has grown up before the
sight OF those who have lived in the city
of Detroit a mere dozen years or so.
What former romance Of quick fortune
rivals II? No other business ever came to

up one OF these lays and returning to the
humdrum routine of life with a sigh for
the wonderful things We have gazed upon
in our sleep,
Sixty million dollars is the measure
of the accumulated assets, Twenty-seven

The balanced accounts show a surplus of
