1t was n hopeless plant that Arthur
Wayne uttered. Around him was lux
ury, nothing betokened business or
money troubles, yet to him his envir-
onment was desolate, the ties of home
and family the source of bitter dis
appointment.
To him love seemed mockery, hap
piness delusiOn, loyalty, unselflsh in
tereSt mere meaningless words. He
sat staring into vacancy, a wretched,
unhappy being. II was in no vindlc-
tive mood that he summoned up q
memory Of the past, but mournfully
and clearly he balanced up the results
Of loyal adherence to q wife he had
never loved, devotion TO her children,
to find them lacking both in gratitude
and respect.
1t was through the clever maneu-
vering Of worldly sister that he had
met and married q widow with three
young children.
' Alas, the rude awakening It did not
take long for Arthur Wayne to faith
ON the shallow nature of the woman
he called wife. She was flippant, in
dolent and unresponsive. To her this
man was simply one who provided her
with what money she chose to spend.
Wasteful, extravagant, her spoiled
children followed in her footsteps af-

two boys to the verge of manhood, the
girl to the manageable age. One Of
the boys had become dissipated, the
other had no thought in mind save to
get out Of "the old man" what he could
coax or scheme for. The girl had be1
come vain coquette, having no ambl-
ton except to trihe away her time in
a favored social set.
And now the climax had come. At
the end of ten years, made widOwer,
Wayne had sought to arouse his
charges to q sense Of the real purposes
of life. They resented direction or

Washington, May 26.-Secretary of

morals of the army which soon will
go into training camps. In a letter
to all governors of states he asked
their cooperation in banishing the

Baker said:
I am determined that our new
training camps, as well as the sur
rounding zones, within an effective
radius. shall not be places of tempta-

intends to do its full part in these
matters, but we expect the co-opera-

munities- II the desired end can not
be otherwise achieved, I propose to
move the camps from those neighbor-
hoods in which clean conditions can
