REVELATI0NSOF*A WIFE
the flowers. What time is 1t .
By ADELE GARRISON

the flowers. What time is 1t
 Half past 1O."
 Only an hour until the train which vas bringing my, mother-in law to our home was due! She would be in the house within an. hour and a halft Would I have. time to dress, go after the flowers and cream and be back in time to welcome her
 Common sense whispered to omit tie flowers, and send Katie for the cream. But one of my faults Or vir- tues-I never have beeen able to de- eide which-is the persistence with which I stick to plan, once have decided upon it. I made Up my mind 10 take chance on getting back in time.
 What. dress should I wear to greet my mOther-in-laW? This was the next question that confronted me. I would have no time to change my at tire after I came back from the florists. 1 did not want to give the Impression of having 'dressed up'' for her, neither did I wish to appear shabby.
 I finally took down my best street suit, blue broadcloth coat and skirt There were several blouses which I could wear with it, and I chose one of dark blue silk, with a fichu and cuffs of lace. I rearranged my hair hurried into the gown, put on my fun cap and stole, and picking up my H1uft and purse, went to the kitchen.
 T am going now, Katie" I said. Set the table and get everything ready so we can serve luncheon al- most as soon as they get here.''
 Il fraid you no get back in time" Katie shook her head dubiously as she looked at the clock
 "Oh yes, I will. But" as a sudden thought struck me, If I shouldn't. I will be back immediately afterward, so tell MT. Graham that I went out after some f1owers.'
 For the realization had just swept over me, that the only opportunity would have to telephone to Jack be- fore he sailed would be in the hour before my mother-in-law arrived. could hardly leave the house during her first day with us, and I certainly could not telephone Jack from the apartment With the risk of Dicky's anger, and the disapprobation which l was sure would be his mothers.

 And isn't it true" shouted the District Attorney, suddenly leaning forward and fairly hurling his words at the witness, 'isn't is true that when you came in you saw Miss Page threaten MT. Pollock with this re- vOlVer?''
 He caught up the weapon as ne spoke and thrust it under her eyes The maid, with a quivering little scream of horror, shrank back amid a murmur of sympathy from the crowd. She could not speak.

 Bursting into a storm of tears Janet flung out her arms in wild gesture.

 At the words, Mary, whose hands had been twitching ncrvously throughout the maids testimony, rose to her feet with a little gasping cry as II she would speak; but before the words came she swung suddenly about and crumpled into a little heap on the floor.

"She is a born partner" So the Authorman describes girl whom we have recently met.
 It is an excellent description not only of that particular girl, but Of the whole type.
 Some people are born to be part ners and others are born to have partners.
 Some people are born to be foils and others to act as foils.
 To take two famous instances: Boswell was born to be a foil, and by good fortune (for both partics) he found jewel worth setting Off in Johnson. Again David found his destined partner in Jonathan. She Is Capable of Good Team Work.
 When the girl of whom the Au- thorman spoke plays cards she is all ways the partner. She plays per- feet supporting game, but she hates to take the initiative and never plays as well when she has to. The aggres- sive players all like her for their part ner, and with any one of them she is capable of beautiful team work, put IudIS nGE "llH d negative eth0 SoO break the current abruptly, as when you put two negative poles together.

NATIONAL CHILD
LAB0RLAW A|R.:T|CHT
Charges of Fraud and Joker
of No Weight Says
: -. :; Owen Lovejoy.

e. The National Child Labor commit
tee has issued today a protest against
current statements to the effect that
the recently passed federal child
labor law Is a fraud" and a: "joker."
We hope no one will be misled by
these :rumors," says Owen R.: Love-
Jay, general secretary Of the National
Child Labor COMMITTEES. 1.-THE bill
was carefully drawn and thoroughly
considered. 1t was =: not damned
through congress, but has been
pending three years. 1t is signifl-
cant that both Democrats. and Re-
publfcans were we'll represented on
the senate committee that passed on
the final form of the bill, that both
solidly for. it in this form, and. that
when. the: roll call was taken only
two Republicans, Oliver and Penrose.
and 10: Democrats, all. ~southerners,
voted against it. IF the law Is a
gold Brick, both parties. made the
brick, and the attempt to use it as
campaign material. is absurd. The
law is as air-tight as a law can be-.
The 30-day clause which has been
attacked as a .'joker" does not re-
late to shipment. in Interstate COM
merce but to removal from the fac
tory, and was intended, chiefly, to
prevent evasion of the law by the
storage of child-made. goods in
warehouse. It was necessary fur
thermore, because without it man
ufacturer who once employed child
labor would find his goods debarred
forever from Interstate commerce.
even though his child employees were
discharged. It has been suggested
that some thrifty manufacturer may
try to run the government blockade
with shipments of goods in 30-day
lots, hiring and firing: his children
SO as to evade the law, but we be-
lieve that such a manufacturer would
be an abnormally determined en-
ployer of children-for employers
have been telling us for many years
that they do not want to employ
children but are forced to do so by
competition with other child en-
ployers-and would soon call himself
to the attention of a public that has
already clearly signifed it's objection
to the existence of child labor. The
federal child labor law was framed
by the best constitutional lawyers in
the country; it was passed by a.
congress that had given it close at
tention; and we Of the National
Child Labor committee believe that,
whether the next president be Mr..
Wilson or Mr.. Hughes, the child la
Dor law can and will be enforced in
accordance with the will Of the
American people,"

NEW YORK PAPER.
LAUDS F.:P. WALSH
Has Put Hand Into His Own
=: Pocket for Cause" Says

From Committee on Industrial Re.
lations.
NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-A recent
editorial of the New York Sun pays
an eloquent testimonial to the in
tellectual sincerity and personal dis
interestness of. Frank P. Walsh,
chairman Of the committee on indus
trial relations, and chairman of the
late United States commission on In
dustrial relations:
The importance and value of the
work of the commission of the sue
ceeding committee, as estimated by
The Sun, is DETECTED in the editorial.
The Sun fights consistently the
program of industrial justice to la
Dor which the commission on indus
trial relations recommended in the
Walsh, or Manly, report and for
which this committee contends. Its
tribute to Mr.. Walsh, whom is op-
poses, and to a program which it
fears is all the more convincing.
The editorial printed in the morn
ing edition of The Sun of Sept. 10,
follows:
:.tMR. WALSHS RELATION TO THE
LABOR MOVEMENT.
1.-The Sun is convinced by its in
quiries that Francis Patrick Walsh
of Kansas City, recently the chair
man of Mr.. Wilson's federal commits
sion on industrial relations, is actu-
ated neither by improper ambition
to become the political leader Of la
Dor nor. by greed Of money. We be-
lieve that many of his notions are
mistaken and his efforts unfortunate,
and we shall continue to differ with
these ideas and deplore these activi-
ties While giving him credit for in
tellectual sincerity and detachment
from pecuniary considerations
1T has even come to our knowl-
edge that instead of being the bene-
flciary Of labor agitation or promo
ton. as so many of the leaders Of
labor VIGOROUSLY are, Mr.. Walsh has
put his hand pretty deep in his own
pocket for the benefit of the cause
II which he has been active. This
at least is valid certificate of his
personal disinterestedness.
I'VE state this creditable fact of
our own motion and in simple fair
ness to Mr.. Walsh. We are glad to
learn it and glad to publish it, and
We believ, that the readers Of The
Sun will be glad to know H..

in 1900, $34,000,000. The Interstate
Commerce Commission stated that
the increase in land values of the
Burlington railroad is estimated at
$15O,000,000, and that the value of
land owned by mary railroads in
creased several hundred per cent in

RIPLEY OF SANTA FEE
REMINDER OF PAST

And now we see that our more OF
less disesteemed friend E. p. Ripley
president of the Atchison, Topeka AMI
Santa Fe Railroad company, has told
the United States government to &c
to the hot place with the Short name
Indeed, the only part Of the afore-
said United States Mr. Ripley recog-
nlzes in the supreme court thereof
and we are in joyous expectation that
If you will forgive play on words
the rampant Ripley will not recog-
nize the United States supreme court
since the last additions thereto!
But be that as it may, Mr.. Ripley,
says he will notoobey the eight-hour
law unless, and until he is ordered TO
by the supreme court. Now, good
people, while you wonder at the
colossal impudence of Ripley of the
Santa Fe, please do not forget that
the supreme court of these United
States in the past has assumed 20
hold this law or that as unconstitu-
tional and therefore null and void,
and while it is not claimed In so many
words, SO long as the said court ar
rogates to itself the right to say what
laws are and what laws are not con-
stitutional, 1.-THE COURTS the real
ruler of the country.
Moreover, in the past the railroads
have seen to it that no real believer
in democracy has got on the bench
in that high court. One or two
democrats (mark the lower case letter
d. have run the gauntlet and have
served to make an anti-Federal. anti
Tory, anti-Bourbon minority in the
supreme court, and they have kept
alight the fires of hope in the breasts
OF the people. But the fact remains.
that here is no law in the land that
is not challengeable by whatsoever
may challenge it until the supreme
court gives it force by declaring it
constitutional.
The impudent. insolent, contume1i-
