Her voice broke. At her first words
Blackford's face had taken on an ex-
preston of amaZement, which grew
deeper and deeper rs he listened and
glanced from one to the other of his
two friends. Now, as her voice fall
tered. his astonishment broke out:
''Toinette, in heavens name, what is
the matter?"
She answered wearily, listlessly, her
voice sinking to whisper, so that
she seemed like an exhausted bird
that is scarcely able to skim above
the waves of the sea:
"He has been here as British spy!"
Blackford started, then laughed in
credulously.
'Tolnette, you're joking!"
But she buried her face in her hands
and spoke through sobs that shook
her from head to foot.
"Oh, if it We're not true! E.
Ask him. :"
Blackford turned to David. His
friend had taken step backward at
Toinette's first rush of reproach and
now leaned against the low counter,
trembling, pale us one who has re-
ceived n mortal wound. The shock
of her accusation coming on the heels
of the very moment when he had
\ lsked his life to confront Cranmer.
stunned him.
Only his high, indignant pride rose
against the sorry riddle--a stubborn
pride which bade him listen to her
wild charge in silence, holding himself
in his angry conceit above the violence
of contradictlng her, above STOPPING
to drag their love in the dust of quar-
rel. Blackford. striving to pierce be-
meath the mask of that white, tense
face and the inscrutable eyes, cried
out In alarm ct David's silent accept
ance of her words.
ITS not true, is 1t, David? NV
God, 1t can't be truew
David was silent.
Blackford tried to laugh off his own
alarm:
You two are playing some silly joke
on me, of course. All right-Tll own
you gulled me. Satisfied, ToinetteY"
Toinette threw back her head proud
ly. The blue eyes that had so often
danced with merriment were blazing
sapphires.

voice rang out. II do not doubt but
you will! find evidence enough to sat

lke's eyes looked into those of his
friend with passion of pleading for
denial. But David's voice answered
evenly, coldly:
There Is no need to search. pre-
sumo that these papers ave the ones
which Miss O'Bannon Wishes"
And with steady fingers he unfas-
tened his coat and waistcoat, and,
while Blackford gazed in horror, slow
u drew out the packet Of papers he
had wrested from Cranmer. He put
them In 1ke's hands and bowed to Toi-

The Way Out

To get self-respect | must do those
things that bring my approval.
l never approve of myself unless do
what | know ought to do.
That means l must do right. Right.
to me, is that of which approve.
Self-respect. therefore, goes back to
morality. When / am moral respect
myself When l am immoral despise
myself
IL you ask what gain by being good,
by doing what is just and fair, answer:
| gain my own self-respect, which brings
with il a sense of satisfaction.
This means happiness, the very foun-
dation of all happiness: for without a
feeling of self-approval any other pleas
ures rest on basis of concealed wretch
ednesS.
Many are gloomy. restless, pessimistic,
and profoundly miserable, and do not
know why. 1t is because they do not
respect themselves.
] am an eternal companion of myself.
am the one person l cannot get away
from. II | despise this me with whom
I am doomed to live all my days, how
can l be content?
How, then, can | have self-respect?
The answer is simple. In every mo-
ment Of my life | am called upon to de-
eide whether 10 do this or that. Life is a
continuous choosing. II | make ii an
invariable rule to choose to do that
which feel ought to do, will be guild
ed into the way Of peace.
To do right is the path to happiness.
II you stop 10 think you will see that this
is not lust preaching it is plain. psy-
Geological truth. There isn't any way to
be comfortable with anybody else unless
you are comfortable with yourself.
Suppose. therefore. you pause. amidst
your soul-writhings and mental torments
and tangled beliefs and distressing unbe-
liefs and dark moods and the general
spiritual stew you are in, just suppose
you pause and say:
There are million things | don't
know. know enough to do right, and
III do it. Life is mystery, but the feel
ing that | ought TO do this thing and
ought not to do that is no mystery, but
plain as a pikestaf. ] will simply begin
Immediately to do what 1 know ought
TO do. and will quit from now on doing
what know ought not.
That is the way out.
| don't know by what ways 1t will lead
YOU. but know whittier it will certainly
lead you-to self-respect.
And only where self-respect is do we
find those two Jewels of our hearts de-
sire-peace and poise.

The Hardest Battle That
Funston Fought Was One
He Fought Against Himself

General Frederick Funston was a
fighting man.
He liked the glamor of war; the TO
nance of it; the excitement of it; the
opportunity il afforded for the reahza-
ton of ambitions that were a part Of his
nature.
In his book, Memories of Two Wars, -
he wrote that he joined the expedition
to Cuba, voluntarily, because he wanted
the adventure.
II did not take him long TO establish
his ability as fighting man.
He shared the distinction of being one
Of the very few men in the volunteer
service to gain promotion TO brigadier-
generalship in the regular army.
This was the reward bestowed upon
the fighting bantam for the capture Of
Aguinaldo, at the outset of which vet
eran general OF the Civil war said 10
him:
Funston. this is desperate under
taking; | fear | shall never see you
again"
How, then, would Funston have relish
ed orders from Washington TO start fir
ing in Mexico, when he was in Vera
Cruz, charged by President Wilson with
orders to uphold the policy of his coun.
try's government toward Mexicans, and
not to fire unless fired upon.
Alarmist reports were brought to him
from the interior that his forces were
needed. but Funston ignored them, real.
ling that an attempt TO move into the
interior would result in complications
that would embarrass Washington.
His soldiers we're set upon and suffered
TO be pummelled by individual Mexicans
but Funston refused repeatedly to permit
himself to be stfmpeded into the use Of
Ksinpowder.

And now we are reaping the reward OF
our own iniquities
.As We SOW so shall ye reap the only

The sower holds out 10 the last minute
for the last possible margin Of profit' even

There is food riot in New York.

She considers this right and duty
IL involves no crime.
II society will not show her justice. she
throws aside all obligation TO society.
She has been the victim of ever tight
ening thumb screws Of want. thru the
high price of living in the great and ter
rible city Of New York during a long
winter.
She has borne this and lived on lower
and lower rations, as the prices scared.
She has seen her children droop and
pine; yes, often die, for lack OF proper
nourishment, but the breaking point was
not quite reached.
Now. with the knowledge that food Is
being purposely withheld; knowing that
car loads of provisions are within a
stones throw of her city; realizing that
she is the dupe of the moneyed interests
who would see her children starve while
sending their produce to Europe for q big
ger profit, she has found herself

What matters il if big business gives
