with cordiality.
"a little personal business" And
Baker seated himself.
"How's the London branch7' asked
wiles by way OF making conversation.
Doing very nicely" was the curt re-
ply, and Baker shook hands with Dolly.
BY and by the voices OF the men rose
as they became more interested in
their conversation. and there noated
up to June an emphatic speech Of
Bakers which she could not help hear
ing.

were clean cut "In my absence OF a
year and a half you've overdrawn your
account $4,000. Fifty thousand dol
lars was the exact amount Of your In
vestment. That makes Us quits. You'll
turn over your share of the business
TO me Immediately"

was not harsh 1t was simply cold.
you've spoiled them. A wife should
be a help to a man. and most of them
would II they were given a chance.
You made toy Of yours"
The next morning Mrs Wiles came
up to June. She had been crying. but
there was a light in her eyes which
was good to see.
81 am very sorry" she said simply.
I'VE have had business reverse. and
We shan't be able to keep you. The
fact of the matter is that we don't hap
pen to have a cent in the house. L
took all Of Harry's pocket money yes
terday. and spent it yesterday after
noon. I-I-I-that isn't quite the
TRUTH" she suddenly blurted out. 1--WE
are absolutely broke. We haven't any
money at ALL"
1t hurt June to part with them. She
had liked them all, and when the little
girl hung around her neck they cried
together. all three-June and Mrs.
Wiles and Dolly.
Halfway up to the avenue June.
walking along and dabbing her eyes
occasionally, was confronted by some
one. Blye!
(which way?" he asked.
ITO the employment Office" she told
him. and showed him her little purse
with laugh.
cts n shame that a pretty girl like
you has to worry about money" And
his coal black eyes gazed down at her
glowingly.
He tried to detain her. Catching her
gently by the arm, he tried to urge her
into his car, using all the persuasive
ness OF his eyes and his smile and his
suave courtesy. but she was obdurate.
Suddenly he jumped into his limou-
sine and whirled away. He was at
the employment agency before June
reached 1t, and he had a cordial chat
with the employment agency woman.
He handed her an address and went
away.
June was delighted when she secured
an opening quickly and started out
Immediately for the place. For a mo
ment June felt an intense dislike to the
ugly looking house at the address given
her and all that 1t might contain: then,
laughing at her own fancies, she strobe
up the steps and rang the bell. The
door swung open silently, but no one
appeared Wondering. June walked
in, and the door slammed behind her.
Two minutes later Gilbert Blye walk
ed up the steps, took a key from his
pocket. inserted 1t into the lock and
smiled.

SWEARING IN JAPANESE.
(Leslie's s.)

The Jap Is always polite, but once in a while he slips from grace-and when he does he is up against it, for there are no swear words in the Jap anese language. When a Japanese meets you he bows three times and takes off his hat, but does not shake hands. When he greets you his first concern is about your ancestors and next about your stomach. It would be almost an open insult for one Japan
 t to meet another without asking how how his stomach fared. On the third bow he asks, This morning how is 1t with your honorable insides?" As you come up on your third bow you answer to the effect that the place mentioned is doing a well as could be expected and in turn ask him what news he has had from the front Then he lifts his hat again and says, "Your delightful head this morning, l hope it have no commotion." When you tell hlm that you are pleased to report that it feels we'll this morning, he asks about a few generations of honorable
 prestors and then you are free to take up the weather
 Even though they are elaborately polite, once in while one Japanese will get mad at another. Their anger kindles slowly at first, finally flaming into blaze that knows no staying But even though there is a torrent of emotion seething in his soul there are no words to give 1t vent; 1t keeps surging harder and harder until he throws aside all restraint and gives up all decency by putting into one phrase all his bitterness and snapping square ly into the other mans astonished face the worst thing that can be said in the whole language.

REQUESTING THE KISS.

Defying and setting at naught al hygenic law the kiss, that historic ve- Aicle of the affectionate greeting o1 humanity, is to go, if not all at once tIrn ultimately.
 There have been undercurents ot protest for some years and individual lapses from the custom, but the state of West Virginia has brought the issue to public attention officially through it's health commission. The state will try to dispose of the practice of oscu- lation by admonition, and if not sue cessful, intends to protect public health by law.
 he board of health obligingly sug gests that intimate greetings hereto fore accentuated by the kiss be now imparted by the "pit-pat" Friends, relatives, or possibly the affianced, thus approach within reaching dis tance, pat each other gently on the cheek, and smile. There Is, of course danger that husband or wife, after bad day at the office or home, may pat trife hard or fail to temper the greeting to one of gentle sympathy
 frenship.
 Alternative suggestions are now in the hands of the health commission for their consideration. The officials are asked to recommend the long range kiss, which should properly stop about two inches from the target, the explosion of the lips proceeding as usual, but in vacancy Then there are insistent inquiries why kissing the eyebrows, the eye-lashes, or even the back of the neck, should not be en- tirely permissible from d hygienic health officials of the state are now struggling with
 There should be the most serious deliberation in the West Virginia is sue. Whatever the final decision may be, the authorities should realize that they are pioneering for the whole of the United States of America. There will be large public interest in the practical operation of the pit-pat, or of the blank cartridge kiss, or of the neck eye, brow or eyelash salutation Whatever West Virginia may conclude to do, the remainder of the country will probably cling to the older usage.

CHINA 10 GARRY AMERICAN
 INDUSTRY
(New York American.)

From San Francisco comes the news that an association of Chinese business men has undertaken to establish a ilne of vessels to engage in trans Pa cific trade with America.
 If such an enterprise Is undertaken it will be successful. China, long re- garded as the most unprogressiYe ot the nations, is still able to take from us all the maritime trade we still hold on the Pacific.
 Indeed, were she to enter the Atlan- tic field, he would have no difficulty in driving our few remaining merchant men from the seas.
 The reason for this is simple. China is no more maritime nation today than she was ten y~ars ago. But, al though racked with internal dissen- sions, although threatened continually with Japanese aggression, she is in a better position to undertake the Paci- lie carrying trade than the United States.
 i Because of unwise and Al-considerd legislation enacted by Congress with the aid and encouragement of the ad- ministration our ships have been practically driven from the ocean.
 Under the pretense of legislation for the sailor, congress has legislated the sailor out of job.
 At a time when the Panama canal promised a development of our mer- chant marine such as had never been known congress first handicapped our ships by levying tolls upon them for the use of d canal built by American money, and second passed a merchant marine bill which made it impossible for our ship owners to compete with those of foreign countries.
 Even when the exigencies of the war eliminated European competition, such was the pass to which our mer- chantmen were brought that they were unable to survive competition with Japan and China.
 Ordinarily the proposal of Chinese merchants to undertake trans Pacific commerce would be laughable. Today 1t Is anything but laughable matter. Unless congress at the earliest pos sible moment undoes what was done in Washington last year the American flag will disappear altogether from the seas, and, until peace is restored in Europe, American travellers and Am erican exporters and importers will be obliged to entrust their lives and their

NOT IN VAIN.
(Boston Transcript.


 With all due respects to editors of great newspapers, l have to say to them that l never take any opinion of the American people from their edito- rials, so that when some greatdailies, not very far from where l am tempo rarily residing. thundered with rising scorn at "watchful waiting" Woodrow sat back in his chair and chuckled, knowing that he laughs best who laughs last."-From President Will sons speech at Indianapolis January s. 1915.
 With all due respect to the president of a great nation but without any in clination to emulate the Woodroyian example and chuckle over the change in presidential policy, the Transcript ventures to believe that the newspa- pers have not "thundered with rising scorn at "watchful. waiting In vain. Else why is that ignomin -ous impolicy now abandoned unless it be because it's one result in Mexico Is the awful anarchy that curses every corner of that country today?
