So the man turned from honor and went on
with his work. Each day greater demands were
made on him. He had scarcely a moment to think
of himself 1t was only in the morning, when he
woke, that he met the crime. Then he would be
spurred to fresh effort.
People close to him saw that he was aging:
his face was growing finer too more calm and
spiritual There was strange look in his eyes,
Some of them explained it by saying that he suf-
fered for others, for what they endured through
the injustice OF the world. No one knew the real
explanation Some of them used to wonder how,
after leading fine life far from evil he should
have SO much understanding and sympathy Moth
ing shocks him" said one. "He can enter into the
feelings of the greatest sinner. And he never
wants to punish. He says that to be sinner is
punishment enough. How can he know"
One of them ventured to repeat these semarks
to him. His face flushed. He turned away.
The time came when the man fell in the midst
OF his work. He had worn himself ont. They
carried him home. They placed him on the bed
where each morning, face to face, he met his
crime.
They told him he was dying.
He smiled family. AT last he said
He Teped sbod bneTd Iva Vas anything he
They decided to leave him alone for a while,
drawing down the shades that the room might be
dark. They moment they closed the door behind
them the crime appeared, no longer menacing but
radiant presence. 81 am here"
The man opened his eyes, looking with aston
ishment at the figure.
What has happened?' he asked.
"You have fulfilled your life"
"But my crimc-I do not it
81 your crime. Have you not learned to
know me through all these years? Do you not
recognize my voice?"
"Your voice l recognized. But you presence
has changed. What has changed you?"
''You have changed You have turned my
ugliness into beauty. You have made me the
means of your redemption. From an enemy you
have converted me into friend"
The presence disappeared. The arms dropped.
The man lay still.
When they found him there they said: "He
has had the kind of death he would have wished"
They spoke of his wonderful life.

sUzzARDs HOME TO BOOST

The appointment by the Legislature Of an emergen- cy committee to cope with the deplorabe situation brought about by the passage of the old Age and Mothers Pension law as an announcement to all Arizona that the buzzards matched by cacdng Socialism at the recent election coming home to roost The authors of the measure also credited with being the authors of those other bills the SOper cent and antblack mon. srosues which yokes now galing the necks of our laborng
 Each day emphasizes the fact that industry - Of which labor is less the backbone than capital has leen betrayed day calls for payment of the toll which win never be wiped until those who were re- sponsibe for originating the bills calling for tolls are deprived of their evil strength
 is not pleasant thing to hear that tbe sufferngs Of the destitute sick be increased by enforcement cf the pension It comes as shock that the aged homeless must be eicted It seems incredible for instance that right here in Cochse county there are sixty almshouse patients twenty of whom are bed rdden-who have only two days supply of food between them and the actual starvation unless help extended
 lt would loo poeti, justice .t not ,-acticaI justice
 ito compel those who placed the sufferers in this plight to feed and house and cothe administer those various offices of mercy which old age and sickness de msnds It would contribute slightly to the need of re- lief if Bert Davis of the Arizona Federation of Labor would volunteer to support the blind and the leper of whom senat~ Bacon Gin told No criticism would attach to Governor Hunt he permitted himself to act with sentiment and personally defray the sicbed expenses of Arzonas destitute Even Citizen Bill Cleary might make himself genuinely useful by sitting at the bed sides of the sufferers and repeating his fairy stories
 The aftermath of endorsing the of the authors of the pension bin is being reaped The aftermath of ue SOper cent and autiblackst measures has not as yet been demonstrated with the same shocking force. The day for these will come Governor Hunt continues 10 defend them his recent message to the Leg stature! Then think things over.

eHlvALRY lN WARFARE

Japan still has much to learn about civilized war fare That benighted country its conflict with Ger many has shown little conception of the military meth ods of enlightened nations The Begerent Jap betrays
 most absurd respect sor alien life and property He can't seem to get it through his head that morals aud courtesy have place in modern war
 When the Mikados government politely "adyscd' Germany to give her Chinese stronghold Of Tsngau permitted the German merchant vessels in Japanese Iorts to away safely instead of selzng them as prizes When Tsngta uwas captured and lantern pro sessions were held in every big city of the empire to celebrate the victory the authorities saw to that no demonstrations in front of German shops and houses. The paraders in some cases avoided whole streets in order to avoid humiliatng the German resi- dents
 Through the the Germans in Japan have been free to business and go where they pleased German teachers end professors in the schools and have continued their work without hindrarce end the ministry education has ordered the student to be particularly careful show them lack spect There prison camps for the enemy There Is no discrimination whatever against Germans.

 Hast thou seen ghosts? Hast thou at mid

 It was the voice of Hezekiah, knew before l faced her. She wore blue sailor waist. with a broad red ribbon tied under the collar and a blue tam.o-shauter capped her head. She bore tray that contained my omclet. plate of toast and other suudries incidental to a substantial breakfast which she distributed deft- ly upon the table.
 How did you get here| blurted, my nerves still out of control.
 The kitchen door. sir. had ridden in,o the garden. and. seeing Aunt De- tavia heading for the stables and Ce. cilia at the kitchen window, l pcdaled boldly in. Cecilia wanted Go borrow my bicycle, and, being a good little sister ! gave it to her. She also said that you required food. SO l told her Co go and l would carry you your breakfast. ] shall skip myself in a min ute. You may draw your own coffee. Mind the machine lt tips if you are not careful"
 She went to the window and peered out toward the stables

 "Certainlyl She's or for town to chase a cook and a few other people to run this hotel. l heard at the post office that the whole camp had dcsert- ed, so l ran over to see what was do- ing. And just for that I've got to walk home"
 But your aunt said that Providence would take care of the servant ques- ton She expected a whole corps of ideal servants to come straying in dur ing the day"
 Cecilia hasn't Aunt Octavla's conf- dence in Providence SO shes taking shot at the employment agencies She has left note on the Kitchen table to mform Aunt Octavia that she had for gotten an engagement with the dentist and has gone to catch the lOIS."
 "That. Hezekiah. Is He It isn't quite square 10 deceive your aunt that way" l rcnNrked soberly.
 Hezekiah laughed
 "You absurdity! Don't you know Aunt Octavla yet? She will be perfect. ly oyerjoyed when she comes back and finds that note from Cecilia. She likes disappearances, mysteries and an that kind of thing. But 1t is barely possi. be that you will have to wash the dishes cant. you see, for I'm not supposed Co come on the reservation at ali-not until Cecilia has found a hus- band. Isn't it perfectly delieiouss"
 "All of that daughter of kings! | think that as soon as 1 can regain con. hdence in my own sanity I shah like it myself But'-and watched her see. Hezekiah. there is really a ghost you know"
 Her divine laugh bubbled mellowly. Sbe had walked guardedly to the win dow and turned swiftly with a mockery of fear in her face.
