DO you know why like you, Miss
Gray" inquired Doris Dinsmere, seat
ing herself in her friends comfortable
chair. It's because you're SO sensi-
ble."
That's a mixed sort of compli-
ment," answered Elizabeth Gray,
laughing. Il think know what you

come to for advice" said Doris, pat
ting her friends hand coaxingly.
Elizabeth Gray and Doris Dinsmere
had been school friends. Five years
afterward they had met in New York,
where Doris was studying art, at the
expense of her well-to-do parents,
while Elizabeth lived in a tiny fiat
and worked as stenographer.
Miss Gray was the sort of woman
who would never be quite beautiful, as
Doris was, but there was more in her
head than had passed through Doris
Eighty one in all her life.
You are in love again." said Miss
Gray calmly.
Doris nodded. ITO Charlie Ross,
she answered. We're engaged"
Elizabeth was unable to repress q
little sense Of pain. It was she who
had introduced Charlie to Doris. Char
lie had been quickly infatuated with
the empty-headed little girl, who rep
resented all that was sacred in his
eyes. She thought with pang how
much he had begun to mean to her be

to her apartment. They had discussed
things together; he had told her every
thing that was in his life, all his ideals
And he had been thrown OF his bal

how to answer them"
Just be natural, DEAR" said the
older woman. Don't try to say what
you don't mean. Charlie will come to

Doris plaintively. 'He thinks / am

Doris was very winning when she
meant TO be. And so her friend capitu-
lated and, conscience stricken. sat
down to inlite letter to Charlie Ross
that should sound Nike Doris and yet
be what Doris was not.
She wrote 1t from her own heart.

THE GREAT FREER COLLECTION GIVEN
 TO THE NATION

tamia, Persia, China, Corea, Japan the history of the ancient world re- corded by itself, preserved by Mother Earth and it's temples, palaces, tomhs, and the treasure chests of Celestial generations; history written in terms of art and of domestic and political life, in objects of daily use enchanced and exalted by the imaginative, the creative, mind and skill of the artist and the artisan. This history the museum is to open to scholar and or- ti3t, to specialists and public, proffer
 ing to all the elevating influences of ancient attachments by diverse peoples for the encouragement and expansion of kindred sympathetic workers here
 where an all-in..usive diversity is yet to be assimulated, amalgamated, and 10 find it's true expression in art.
 "A thing Of use made beautiful' is a favorite defination of work of art with MT. Freer, and he has sought to form "an intellectual collection of beautiful objects" Such, indeed, it is, evoking visions for the higher capaci- ties, as well as pleasing the eye with an object of the moment and suggest ing beauty to the craftsman. Aesthe- tic delight. the pleasure of historical review of man in the early civiliza- tions. and stimulation to greater beau ty in the intimate surroundings of life all potential in a single institution.

Peace RumOrs and New Talk
Of an Export Embargo
Cause Selling.
FIRMNESS IN INTERIOR
Chicago Board Closes Saturday
General Grain Market
Holiday Probable.

The wheat market was again unset
tied yesterday and prices moved fever
ishly over a range Of 2h to sac. De-
covering by belated shorts, but toward
the end the late months were weak. and
the close was net unchanged to 3 cents
lower.
Sentiment was much divided and the
situation at large was looked upon as
complicated n puzzling to the average
trader. Peace rumors were somewhat
more insistent late in the day, and this.
together with revived ak OF an export
embargo. caused the heavy selling.
There was u scattered export demand.
but sales were small. being estimated at
only abou; 100000 bushels. Traffic CON
di,ions are still much congcstcd, and 1t
was said that exporters are still from
thirty to sixty days behind in their
shipments on old contracts. and consc-
uucutly not disposed to make new pur-
chascs. especially when they are having
difficulty in getting authority from the
proper sources to make shipments ON
account Of the scarcity Of ocean ton
rage.
Interior cash markets were said to he
nrm, with comparatively small oncrs from
the country. and this sustained cash pre-
miums. especially H. the Southwest Under
prevailing disturbed conditions operators
are becoming ,imid about. taking chances
either way and the market has become
