Gloria's eyes widened. Her fingers
clenched and crunpled the paper in
anguish. Her father, looking up from
his paper, saw the wild terror in her
eyes. He hurried to her. She hand.
ed him the paper. and while he read,
she rose to her feet unsteadily, lean
ing on the table for support.
AS soon as her father understood
the news he put his arms about her.
But she gently thrust him from her
and stood gazing great-eyed into
space. She was seeing again what
she saw that night beneath the monu.
ment. All her girlhood seemed to
drop from her. Her small figure grew
terrible with agony, her little white
mouth was drawn with determination
to have revenge.
She lifted her hands to heaven in
solemn conservation and made her
vow:
Il will not rest until discover the

NEW ORLEANS IN GRIP
OF CLEANUP WAVE

The New Orleans American has
succeeded in getting the other
papers of the metropolis lined-up
for the reform wave and at this
time it really looks as tho the gamb-
lers, thugs, and highwaymen would
have to take a vacation for time.
However, the other papers are not
with the American in the fight. In
fact they are very much against it,
but as that paper exposed condi-
tions in such light, it was neces-
sary for the other papers to declare
for a cleaner city.
Publisher .O'Donnell has furnish
ed the grand jury with the list of
the names of the prisoners who
we're used by the administration to
cleanup the palm garden at the
race track. These men were for the
most part serving 80 days on loiter-
ing and D and S charges.
The superintendent of the work
house said that the prisoners asked
to be allowed to cleanup the palm
garden in order that they might
look for small change dropped by
the followers of the races.
The American is getting much
advertising and a lot of new sub
scribers as result of the cam
paign. The publisher, Hugh Arnott
O'Donnell is being sued by the city
administration for libel.

The telegraph company notified her
that her telegram to Freneau at his
hotel was not delivered: Party not

Before she could recover from her
bewilderment, close on the heels Of
this message came special delivery

the hotel paper and postmarked ~.
bany.
Gloria was completely dazed. her
brain in a whirl Of contradictions.
What could she do? Where could
she find her lover? Was he alive or
dead?
At this time, in the boudoir of her
home Lois Stafford paced the floor,
staring at the photograph of Freneau
which she had stolen from Gloria.
Despair tore at her heartstrings She
sobbed and beat her breast. A knock
at the door brought her to herself andl
she called: who's there?" The
voice of her husband came through
the door. She cast look of anger at
the door, then hid the photograph and
dried her eyes hastily. Then she
forced smile and admitted David.
He carried an offering of flowers in
his hands.
Il thought you were on your way
South Lois exclaimed as she en-
braced MIN with apparent fervor.
Il decided not to go and turned
back. Are you sorry" he asked hun
grily.
She answered: MY love!" and
clasped him close.
She was afraid to ask him any ques-
lions lest he ask questions of her.
The following morning Gloria, still
see-sawing between Joy and anguish.
received a telegram from Freneau at
Buffalo. She telegraphed to him at
his address there. Later the message
was reported undelivered. Yet in due
time . letter came from Freneau on
the hotel paper.
The next day q message Of love
from Cleveland. Now she called the
hotel on the long-distance telephone.
The clerk insisted that Freneau was
not there and had not been there.
It was the same with messages
from Detroit. Chicago, st. Louis. and
Pittsburgh. Gloria felt that she was
being slowly driven insane. But her
bodily health improved throughout the
week in spite Of her mental distress
and Doctor Royce told her that she
might 60 down to the dining room for
her breakfast She was glad Of this
because Dicks letter from Pittsburgh
had promised that he would call on
her that morning. She wanted to vel.

She herself had . royal reception
from the servants. She was dressed
In . trailing breakfast gown Of orchid
chiffon, and she bent to the bowling
old butler as II he were her prime
minister. Her father escorted her to
her place, then whipped open his pa
per to the financial page and vanished
behind It.
Gloria turned to the page OF social
gossip in another paper. She had
pretty we'll lost track of the world.
She laughed a. she turned to the

headlines announcing: "Frencau

In handling other peoples money the principal must be kept intact. If, as a trustee. those to whom you are respon- slble insist upon an income which you in your heart know eannot.be obtained without taking some slight chance, give up the trust without hesitation, says Worlds Work. There Is no more bit ter experience through which an hon. est trustee or executor can pass than the rendering of an accounting for a lost or depleted trust. No reason or ex- cnse can weigh for an instant against the actual result which he faces. A single slip in the handling of funds like this may doom all future genera tions of that family to lives of poverty. This Is the greatest responsibility ever laid upon a trustee. an executor, q banker or an adviser, and no honest man should assume 1t unless he is pre- pared to endure for the sake of the future all the criticism that may cen ter upon him on account of extreme conservatism In the present.

SIX SIDED SNOW CRYSTALS.
That is Natures Law, but Why lt IS
 So Science Cannot Explain.

That is Natures Law, but Why lt 10
 So Science Cannot Explain.
 Snow crystals obey an immutable law of six. They are six sided jewels or six pointed stars. They never an- swer to the law of four or five. Snow Is crystallized water, and water always crystallizes in six sided forms. Why? No one ever will know. There Is no more apparent reason for the sixness of crystallized water U an there is for the monoclinic prisms of sugar crys- tals. Water and sugar and the com plex minerals which make the granite rock all follow laws which are utter ly unchangeable, but which are, as far as we can see, without any special req son. It Is as profitable to speculate why the chlorophyll of vegetation is green and why the blood of animals is red.
 The whiteness of the snow is under standable. It is due to the fusion of prismic colors scintillating from the countless surfaces of minute crystals. Human science comprehends this. It also comprehends the fact that snow Is a poor conductor of heat and thus prevents terrestrial radiation and keeps the earth and the things In the earth snug and warm under the white blan- ket which is softer and finer than lambs wool or eiderdown. Science knows why snow Is white and why 1t is beneficent. but 1t cannot explain the law of six.
 It Is we'll that snow cannot be al- together explained. It is one of the earths most beautiful mysteries. It would lose something in beauty were it to lose all It's mystery.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

It is reported that Rockville will soon have a new industry. which may develop into a large establishment. The Connecticut aircraft company of New Haven has secured the Winder- mere mill on the outskirts of the oity which has not been operated for many years. The company also got about 80 acres of land with the mill and will establish factory for the manu- faoture of balloons. There will also be a training school for operators of various kinds of air machines. and it is understood that the government is interested in the matter. It is con- sidered an ideal location for the train ing school, and the students will in- olude quite a number of men from Yale college which is interested in the work of the company.
