 Corn traders acted on the assumption that enlarged arrivals of corn here had been brought about by utilizing railway equipment made available through current heavy reduction of general freight busi- ness, and that consequently for at least the time being the influence of the coal strike was more bearish than bulish as to corn. Curtaiment of buying on the part of big industries tended further to re- press the market.
 Oats weakened with corn. Domestic call was very slow.

"Have You Kept theFaith?"

I was rather proud of Crittenden that evening, however. He aroused himself sufficiently to climb out of the dumps and helped me to make his father and mother welcome. He was quite himself at dinner and man. aged even to appear at ease in the living room afterward, however much it may have distressed him to sit in a chair that had not been placed eX- actly where he desired it by his own precise and particular hands.
 Mother Hayes smiled at me the moment we entered the living room and her smile was all that was nec- essary between us. It said as plainly as though she had spoken: "I see you have re-arranged the room. That was right and proper"
 I was thus bound to feel com forting moral support when l had her backing me up. She was a real mother, not a mother-in-law.
 "And how is what-do-you-call him ?" asked Daddy Hayes, turning to me.
 "Pegasus?" smiled, "just as fine as he was when he was in your blue grass pasture. He is the pride of all the bridle paths in Chicago, can assure you"
 Have any trouble keeping him?' lie asked in an undertone as Critten- den and his mother fell to talking.
 "Not much" l whispered.
 He smiled blandly.
 But that was all he ever knew about it. Somehow the fine old gen. tleman who was fine in spite of the fact that he, too, as Mother Hayes we'll knew, always wanted his way. seemed to understand that I did not

want to say any more about it. He asked me no more, aRt any rate, even when I took him to the garage the next day and proudly showed him the beautiful thing he had given me.
 Then Crittenden took Daddy Hayes to his den for smoke and chat leav- ing Mother Hayes and me together.
 "How have you been, daughter ?" she asked. Have you fought good fight; have you kept the faith ?" she inquired, smiling at. me.
 nodded.
 'Yes, l believe | have. At least I have tried to, Mother Hayes. Some times it has been hard, trying tt match my inferior strength against his, but I am blessed with more than my share of courage, perhaps, and I have managed it."
 She slipped her arm about my shoulders and drew me to her.
 "I am prouder of you for being able to say that, Bess, my dear, than if, by a miracle you had become my own daughter" she. said. T can see in your face that you are resolute, that your heart beats true and strong. have no doubt of your suc- cess in the thing at which I failed"
 She sighed. I patted her cheek.
 "I know you will go on and on to win splendid victory" she continu- ed. "And I know, too," she added sweetly, winning more of my love and affection, "that when you shall have won you will hold victory grace fully and graciouslv. You will be good to my boy. I know that and l rest content about him at all times and about your treatment of him."

tribute, Cit is wonderful of you to love me like this!"
 With that last expression of con- fidence in me, Crittenden's mother never again referred to our domestic problems. She had satisfied herself that all was we'll. As she had said, she was content.
 Long we sat and talked, we four, when Crittenden and his father re- turned. Daddy and Mother Hayes had not been in Chicago for years and they marveled at the big city's growth and development which we discussed at length. They praised our home and it's appointments as we took them over it, pleasing us greatly thereby. And they seemed to be as glad to be with us as we were to have them. They were de- lightful gusts.
 They were to stay until New Years We promised to show them about. That would be easy to do with the car and l was to have that pleasure almost wholly to myself as Critten- den was busily engaged right then with new orders at the office. So he left their entertainment by day to me.
 "And that will be all right" said his father. "Well be satisfied to have her to ourselves, won't we mo- ther? You go and attend to busi- ness, son."
 l smiled at Daddy Hayes compli- ment and then reassuringly at Crit tenden's boyish look of jealousy that he was not grown up enough to mask. And yet l was glad to see it for two reasons: That his parents love for me was sufficient to arouse it, and that he cared enough about them to show it.
