Chicago. Jan. 25.--Britsh official utter
ances that were construed as adverse to an
early peace gave the wheat market an up
ward swing today, which. however. was not
we'll maintained. The market closed heavy
h9hc net higher, with May at S1.84% q

sions varied from 2hc decline to a rise Of
40c,
Advances that In some cases amounted to
2hc bushel on wheat resulted from the
purchasing. which was largely stimulated
by the British chancellors speech at Bristol
commenting unfavorably on President VIII
sons plea for a peace without victory. The
maximum Of the ascent In prices though,
was reached within an hour after the open
ing, despite the fact that the bulls put
considerable stress also on forecasts that
the next few weeks were likley to witness
heavy decreases in the domestic stock Of
, breadstuffs. Strength in coarse grains failed
| likewise to act as a durable prop for wheat.
| The main difficulty for the bulls was that
export buying appeared to be at a virtual
standstill.
In the absence of any sign OF important
| new business with Europe the wheat mar
ket in the last hour OF trading came very
near to losing all the preceding enhance

dy. The only way to make 1t free
Is to have friendship growing along
side 1t. So when ! can be your part
ner and your friend, I'll be your wife
too. But nOt-nOt, ROddy, till l can
find a way. I'll have to find 1t for
myself I'll have to go off >"
She broke down Over a word she
couldn't at first say, buried her face
In her arms, and let a deep, racking
sob or two have their way with her.
But presently she sat erect again
and, with a supreme effort of will,
forced her voice to utter the word !:
"Tve got to 60 off alOne-away from
you. and stay until / find 1t. II l ever
do, and you want me, I'll come back"
The struggle between them lasted a
week-a CHASTITY week, during which,
so far as the surface Of things showed,
their life flowed along In Its accus-
toned channels. But at all sorts Of
times, and In all sorts Of places, when
they were alone together. the great
battle was renewed.
The hardest thing about it all for
Rose-the thing that came nearest to
breaking down her courage-was to
see how slowly Rodney came to realize
1t at all. He was like a trapped AMI
NAL pacing the four sides of his cage,
confident that in a moment or two he
would find the way out, and then, In
credulously, dazedly, coming to the sur
mise that there was no way out. She
really meant to go away and leave him
leave the babies; go somewhere
where his care and protection could
not reach her! She was actually plan
ming the details of doing 1t! By the
end of n of their long talks, 1t would
seem to her that he had grasped this
mOnstrous intention and accepted 1t.
But before the beginning Of the next
one, he seemed to manage, somehow,
to dismiss the thing as a nightmare.
Somehow or other, during the calmer
moments toward the end, practical de-
tails managed to get talked about
settled after a fashion. without the ad-
mission really being made on his part
that the thing was going to happen at
all.
I'D do everything I could. of course,
to make 1t easier" she said. 1--WE could
have a story for people that I'd gone
to California to make mother a long
visit. We could bring Harriet home
from Washington to keep house while
l was gone. I'd take my trunks, you
see, and really 60. People would JUS
pect, Of course. after a while, but
they'll always pretend to believe any
thing that's comfortable"
"Where would you go, really" he
"Have you any plan at
ALP
II have a sort Of plan," she said. II
think l know of a way Of earning q liv-
Ing."
But she didn't offer to go on and tell
him what 1t was, and, after a little ST.
ence, he commented bitterly upon this
omission.

TRAPPING OF MONKEYS EASY
Curiosity, Greed and Initiative Faculty
Of Animals Furnish Vulnerable
Point Of Attack.

When we see In the street an or
gan-grinder with his little %red-capped
pet monkey, we seldom stop to think
Of the animals native home or how 1t
was trapped. AS a matter Of fact, the
monkey came from Asia, Africa or
South America. The aforementioned
have nOstrils widely separated where
as the old world monkeys have them
close with a narrow nasal septum.
One might readily imagine that the
trapping of monkeys is a difficult Op-
Grafton. However, nothing could be
further from the truth than this n.y.
pothesis. Monkeys are easily caught,
not by heavily built traps, but by
sheer ingenuity and the simplest sort
Of articles. A monkey has various vul-
nerable points Of attack, so to speak:
and these are cupidlty, curiosity, COW
etOusness or greed, and a truly won
derful initiative faculty.
A trapper al take a pair of boots
into the jungle. drop them down within
sight Of a monkey and soon have
that monkey In a cage. The boots on
his feet appear to be the same as the
boots he leaves; but here Is where
the monkey is mistaken. As soon as
the visitor goes away, the monkey de-
sends from some tree and thrusts his
own feet into the boots. The inside is
covered with glue. and he sticks fast;
also the boots are weighted with lead
and chained together.
The trapper may chain a gourd,
filled with corn or some other eatable,
a heavy log. Mr.. Monkey comes
along, tastes the food, relishes 1t, and
more. There is no limit to his
greed. He thrusts his hand into the
small opening In the gourd and his
close. around a large supply Of
food. Then he finds himself un-
to withdraw his hand. The trap
per advances and captures Mr.. Mon
key, because the animals thinking.
zap and his Unsuitable greed are such
hat the simple expedient Of releasing
he food never ecu to him as Q
means Of escape.

plinnces that Rose couldn't guess the
uses or the names Of. Mrs. Ruston
OF course, was master of them all
and Doris flew about to do her bid.
ding, under a watchful eye.
Rose surveyed this scene, just as
she would have surveyed u laboratory,
or a factory where they make some
thing complicated, like watches.
That's what it was, really. Those two
pink little objects, In their two severe
ly sanitary baskets, were factory prod
ucts. At precise and unalterable in
t%ervals. a highly scientific compound
of fats and proteids was put into
them. They were inspected, weighed,
submitted to II routine of other proc
esses. And in all the routine, there
was nothing that their mother, now
they were fairly born, vas wanted for.
Rose kept those ideas to herself
and kept an eye on young Doris, lis
tened to the orders she got, and stud
led alertly what she did In the execu-
ton Of them.
Rodney had a lovely time watching
the twins bathed. He stood about in
everybody's way. made what he con-
ceived to be allurlng noises, and finally
turned suddenly to his wife and said:
Don't you want to-hold them, ROse?"
A stab of pain went through her
and tears came up into her eyes. "Yes,
give them to me-" she started to say.
But Mrs. Ruston spoke before she
could frame the words. 1t was their
feeding hour, a bad time for them
to be excited. and the bottles were
heated exactly right.
BY that time Roses idea had flow
cred into resolution. But she mustn't
jeOpardize the success of her plan by
trying to put it into effect too soon.
