! 81 must go, I suppose. After all,
my parents are mourning for me.
They love me. 1 have my duty. You
will come"
"No," said Harding. 81 shall stay
here"
The struggle was a piteous one.
'Foscari watched with quiet triumph
in his eyes. And Elsa yielded. With
out a word, with lowered head, she
followed him.
Half an hour later the fishing boat
returned. Harding was waiting on
the shore. His life seemed altOgeth-
er empty now, and he did not know
what he was going to do, but he
wanted to leave the island where life
had become so fair, only to cloud it
self again in gloom.
Push OFF, he said, and stepped
into the boat.
And at the moment there came a
rustling among the trees and Elsa
stood before him, radiant She
sprang forward and Harding took
her in his arms and placed her in the
boat. There was no need of eXplana-
tons. At the last, love had tri-
umphed.
Quietly the little craft put out in
the fragrance of the afternoon,
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1916-12-23


And he bent and kissed her.
Whether or not Foscari saw that
kiss, his glances were so malignant
afterward that Elsa grew, afraid.
However, on the following day he
withdrew to the other side of the
island.
They did not see him and there
followed golden days of happiness in
each others love. They had decided
that, being dead to the world, they
would never return. Harding had a
little money and he meant to take
Elsa to some quiet place in southern
Europe where they could live with
each other for the rest of their lives.
Then came the hOped-fOr fishing
boat. It came sailing toward the
island in the dawn and the two came
out of the hut to see the swarthy
Portuguese looking in wonder at
their shack. They started back in
terror as the two emerged; they
thought they were spirits.
Harding, speaking in Italian, man
aged to make himself understood.
The fishermen agreed to take them
to the main island as soon as they
had uade their catch that afternoon
on the tide -,
They went away and the hours
went by. 1t was early afternoon
when suddenly Foscari burst through
the trees exultantly and ran up to
them.
I'VE are saved" he shouted.
Elsa looked at him, but said moth
ing.
"a steamship is on the other side
of the island. She has seen the flag.
A boat is coming. Elsa, we will for
get what has happened. We shall be
aboard in half an hour"
Elsa's lip quiVered, With the pros
pect of this new rescue all the hap
py dreams of the past were shat
tered. Again she seemed to be in

Secretary Redfield, In prepared

is the cause Of the enormous in
crease in the cost Of such products
to consumers in the United States.
He estimates that the 100000
men engaged in fighting on the
European battlefelds consume
enough food for SO,00G,OOO meh and
enough clothing for 80,0O0,000 men
during times Of peace, and Ia ad-
dition these fighting men are pro-
ducing nothing. Mr.. Redfeld said
The world is at war. 1t is prob
ably within the truth to say that

time fighting. The world is there.

votes in California is progressing
and as far as reported with no loss
to Wilson, but were errors found in
that state which might turn it to
Hughes and by that means give the
election to the Republicans, the ex-
tremist Democrats would almost be
laughed out Of the country. We be-,
lieve that Wilson is safely elected,
but it is not wisest to crow too loud
