Two severe attacks on the admins

affairs, assaled the "dlatory" policy
followed in rehabilitation, asserting
that the administration Is as unpre-
pared for disbanding the army as 1t
was for the war itself. He warned his
party that II would be held responsible
politically by the returning soldiers
If 1t failed to adopt an adequate pro-
gram for taking care of them. The
other attack was made by Republic
an, Senator Weeks Of Massachusetts,,
who bitterly criticized the war depart
ment for delays and errors In compll.
ing casualties among the expedtionary
forces and for failure TO cooperate
with the Red Cross In the matter Of
forwarding letters from wounded SOL

the argument that II the league Of ma

must have "incomparably the greatest
navy in the world to defend the Mon
roe doctrine and protect the weak ma
lions. His program, according to his
own admission, is intended as an argu-
ment by which President Wilson can
bring the other nations to accept the
proposed reduction of armament. The
secretary says the president backs up
his policy If competitive building is to
continue. Mr.. Daniels new three-year
building program calls for the appro-
priation Of S600,000,000 to provide for
156 additional naval ships, including
ten dreadnaughts and six battle cruis-
ers.

George arrived In the French capital
Saturday. Conferences among the

the number Of delegates to the peace
conference will be enlarged so that
experts In certain lines may sit at the
board when the things they know most
about are being discussed. Great Brit
aims delegates include Lloyd George,

Sir Esme Howard, Sir Ralph Paget,
Sir Eyre Grove and Lord Robert Cecil

The numerous and complicated
questions that the peace conference
must take up and settle have given rise
to the suggestion that the congress

such, or else traitors to the country

CHAPTER XVII.

In the course of a few wretched
| days Clay picked up some of the facts
about Daphne's presence in Wether-
at her than ever and more incapable
of hating her.
He saw Baya1~d often, but Bayard
knew little and said less. One after
noon he invited Clay to ride with him
| to the hospital, whence Leila was to
graduate. He warned Clay not to be-
tray how shocked he would be at Lei
las appearance, which, he said, was
wonderful improvement on what it
had been.
She was, indeed, a mere shell, and
Clay was not entirely successful with
his compliments.
Leila sighed: 'Much obliged for
your good intentions. I'm a mere
sack of bones, but I'm going to get
well. The doctors say that if take
care of myself every minute and go
to q lot of specialists and go to Bar
Harbor in the hot weather and to
Palm Beach in the cold and spend
about a million dollars I'll be myself
some day. That's not much, but it's
all I've got to work for. Poor Byd1e
He didn't know he was endOwing
hospital when he married me-"
"What do I care, hOney?" Bayard
cried, with perfect chivalry. "The
money is rolling in and I'd rather
spend it on you than on anybody else"
"The moneys rolling out just as
fast as it rolls in,'' Leila sighed. "The
Lord seems to provide a new expense
for every streak of luck. And that's
my middle name-Expense."
She had actually learned one lesson.
That was a hopeful sign.
Clay sought Daphne in her odiOus
Ito him) place of business. She asked
him what she could sell him. He said
he would wait till the shop closed.
She raised her eyebrows impudently
and gave him a chair in corner. He
sat there feeling as out of place as
strange man in a harem.
Eventually the last garrulous GUS
toner talked herself dumb; the last
sewing woman went. Mrs. Chivvis
pulled down the curtains in the show
window and at the door and babe good
night.
Then Daphne locked the door,
dropped YEARLY into a chair, and
sighed, "Well, Clay?"
81 want to know why you don't give
up Tom Duane"
She shrugged her excellent shout

so long you might have, though.
Where've you been, Clay? But wait
you can tell me on the way over to
the new shop"
When she led him into her new en-
porium the graceful fabrics displayed
were all red rags to him. He was a
bull in crimson shop.
Daphne made Clay sit down and
asked him if it were not all perfectly
lovely. He waited until Mrs. Chivvis
went on to the workroOm. He had a
glimpse Of a number of girls and
wome on sewing bent. They were
laughing and chattering.
He answered, cts perfectly 1oath-
some"
Instead Of resenting this insult
Daphne laughed till she fell against
the counter. The worst Of it was that
her eyes were so tender.
"Where did you get all the capital
for all this stock?" Clay demanded,
with sudden suspicion.
''Oh, part Of it we bought en- credit
and part of it on borrowed money"
Borrowed from whom?"
"From Mr.. Duane"
This was too much Of too much.
Clay stormed: "Ill get hint" =,
ooh, no, you won'ty'
'Oh, yes, will !"
81 won't have you assaulting the
best friend I've got in the world"
He groaned aloud at this, not no
ticing how she used the word friend -
She ran on. She had not talked to
him for so long that she was a perfect
chatterbox.
"He lent me five hundred dollars
when didn't know where else to get
it. And it nailed our first real con-
tract-a big commission from old Mrs.
Romilly. We paid back Mr.. Duane's
five hundred and then" She giggled
in advance at what was coming to
Clay. "And then I borrowed a thou
sand from him. We owe him that
now"
Clay was as wroth as she had
wished. He took out a little book.
'Well, I'll give you a check for that
amount-or more. And you can pay
Duane off with interest. I won't
have you owing him money"
"You won't have!" Daphne Knocked
''You won't have? Since when did
you become senior partner here?"
"Senior partner! !" Clay rallied. ''rm
no partner in this business! I hate
this business. It makes me sick to
see you in it."
"Then step out on the walk" said
Daphne. "You're soaring away Gus
toners and using up the time of the
firm. The boudoir is no place for you,
anyway"
A young woman with a bridal eye
walked in and Daphne left Clay to
blunder out sheepishly. He did not
see that she cast sleeps eyes after
him. He was a most bewildered
young man. He had made pile of
money and still he was not happyl

Thin PEOPLE
SHOULD TAKE
PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro-PhosphatO
to Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and
to Increase Strength, Viqor
and Nerve Force.

Judging from the countless preparations
and treatments which are continually be-
ing advertised for the purpose of making
thin people f1eshy, developing arms, neck
and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and
angles by the soft curved lines of health
and beauty, there are evidently thousands
OF men and women VINO keenly feel their
excessive thinneSs
Thinness and weakness are often due
to starved nerves. Our bodies need more
phosphate than is contained in modern
foods. Physicians claim there is nothing
that will supply this deficiency so well an
the organic phosphate known among drug
gists as bitro- phosphate, which is mex
pensive and is sold by most all druggists
under guarantee of satisfaction or money
back. BY feeding the nerves directly and
by supplying the body cells with the nee
essary phosphoric food elements, bitro-
phosphate should produce a welcome
Transformation in the appearance: the in
crease in weight frequently being aston
fishing.
Increase in weight also carries with 10
q general Improvement in the health.
Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack Of
energy, which nearly always accompany
excessive thinness, should disappear, duh
eyes become bright and pale cheeks glow
with the bloom of perfect health
CAUTION: - Although bitro-phosphatO
Is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness,
sleeplessness and general weakness, Il
should not, owing to its tendency to in
crease weight, be used by anyone who
does not desire to pEt on flesh

BUDDHA IN PLACE OF GOD
Eastern Leaders Shrewd Attempt to
Stem the Onward March Of Chris
tianity in East.

Yamanaka was a strong Buddhist
and a leader in the movement to re-
vive and reform Buddhism and estab-
lish it as a bulwark against the rapid
encroachment of Christianity.
He decided an excellent way to do
this was to found a school for girls
which would be more attractive than
the Christian wOmen's. So he erected
fine buildings and installed modern
methods. He hired good teachers. All
the paraphernalia of the best western
schools was taken over. In fact, the
curriculum was about as close as it
could be TO that of the Christian school
not far away. Buddhism was prom
inent feature of the institution-nOt
the old-fashioned Buddhism, but the
new form which has borrowed from
Christianity, even down to the Sunday
school hymns. The girls were taught
to sing the famous old Christian
hymns with only the word Buddha sub
Stituted for that of Christ.
