And the home market is booming. We
can sell all our product here, and
more, too, than we can make"
Colonel MarChmont squirmed, but
he was a soldier and loved a good
counter-attack. He smiled as he
squirmed. Wetherell was avenged
when his successor signed new con-
tracts at a higher price than he had
made. The changing times changed
everything; yesterdays exorbitance
was today's bargain.
Bayard departed with wallet full
of business. He got back to his office
on feet fledged with Mercurial wings.
His feet were beautiful on the rug Of
the presidents office.
Bayard felt so kindly to all the
world that he hurried to the hospital

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 a 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
glimpse Of a number of girls and
wome' on sewing bent. They were
laughing and chattering.
He answered, "It's perfectly loath-
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 on credit
and part of 1t on borrowed money"
Borrowed from whom?'
"From Mr.. Duane"
This was too much Of too much.
Clay stormed: 'T'll get himl"
"Oh, no, you wcn't!" T..
"Oh, yes, I will"
II 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 perfect
chatterbox.
HE lent me five hundred dollars
when l didn't know where else to get
1t. 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 thou
sand from him. We owe him that
now"
Clay was as wroth as she had
| wished. He took out little book,
"Well, I'll give you check for that
amount--or more. And you can pay
Duane off with interest. won't
have you owing him money"
"You won't havew Daphne Knocked
you won't have? Since when did
you become senior partner here?"
"Senior partnerw Clay rallied. "Tm
no partner in this businessl I hate
this business. 1t 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 happyi

to scatter good news like flowers over
Leila's couch. She was in that humor
when anybody else's good fortune was
an added grief to her.
"I'm no use to you now" she walled.
II never was much. But at least
dressed and kept looking fit. And you
said I was pretty. But now Oh,
Bayard, Bayard! You used to call me
beautiful, and I tried to be beautiful
for you. But now To be ugly and
useless both-its too much"
Wise pathfinders say that when you
are wandering in strange country you
should turn every now and then and
look back at the way you came. 1t
wears different aspect entirely from
its look as you approached, and you
will need to know how 1t will look
when you return.
From childhood on, Leila had been
warned against extravagance-as Bay
ard had, as have we all. But only
now that she was looking backward
could she realize the wisdom, the in
tolerable truth Of the adage, "Waste
not, want not"
Meanwhile Daphne was having so
different a history that she felt
ashamed. 1t seemed unfair to her to
get well quickly and with no blemish
except a scar or two that would not
show, while Leila hung between death
and deformity.
But seeing Bayard alone and hear
| ing Leila fret, she felt confirmed in
her belief that she had done the whole
some thing when she joined the labor
| ing classes. There were discourage
ments without cease, yet Daphne was
learning what remedy for how many
troubles there is in work. 1t seemed
to be almost panacea. 1t was exciting,
| fatiguing, alarming, but it was objec-
tive. She was on her way at last to
that fifty thousand a year she had
dreamed of. She was uncertain yet of
earning thousand a year, but she
was on the road.
Clay Wimburn, seeking chances in
the West, did not see the New York
papelS or any other record of Daph-
ne's accident. When he got back to
New York, his pockets full of con-
tracts, Bayard, equally successful,
greeted him enthusiastically. Then he
learned Of the accident and the fact
that Daphne was Gin trade" He was
indignant at the news and wanted to
see her at once.
| Bayard gave him the address, and
Clay wasted no time asking further
questions. He made haste to the sub.
way, tuning; left the train at the
Grand Central station and climbed NJ
to taxicab.
Then he found Daphne.
She led him into little shop empty
Of everything but the debris Of re
moval.
"Where are weT said Clay.
"This was my shop"
"What's the matter2 Busted al
ready?" Clay asked, with a not unflat
tering cheerfulness.
"Not in the least" Daphne ex
planned. "We've expanded so fast W.

She spoke instead: II don't ask you
to give up your stenographer."
"Oh, it's like that, Ell? Well, then,

"And you wouldn't give up your
shop for me?"
Certainly not"
He looked at her with baff1ed emo
tons. She was So delectable and so
obstinate, so right-hearted and so
wrong-headed. 1t was intolerable that
she should keep a shop. He spoke
after long delay:

WASHINGTON, Aug. So President

estimates will be s1,5oT,776 by Decem-
Der 81. will be investigated by the
House Appropriations Committee be-
fore the appropriation OF sS25,ooo.
which the President aslSs TO complete
the work, is granted. Chairman Good
Uowa) said to-day.
1t is evident that the majority of
the House Appropriations Committee
is not satisfied with the general out
line of the expenditures of the peace
mission, as recently submitted to Con-
gress by the President, and Mr.. Good
says the committee intends to inquire
into them in detail. So as not to de-
lay the appropriations absolutely nee
ossary to complete the work and the
deficiency bill now being framed,
which will include the additional ap-
preparations necessary to reduce the
cost Of living, it is probable that only
a preliminary investigation of expen-
ditures will be made, but particular at
Nention will be directed as to how the
President expects to spend the appro-
priation he will ask.
Although the question has not been
fully decided. Mr.. Good said, State De-
partment officials. probably including
Secretary Lansing. would be called to
explain the expenditures and the f,tnre
needs. Mr.. Good made the general
statement that in line with the Rcspub-
lican programme of economy the Pres
idential appropriation would be limited
to absolute necessities.
Resolutions have been introduced ask
ing for an investigation OF the peace
missions expenditures. and 1t was
learned to-day that Republican leaders
are considering a special Investigation
aside from the preliminary inquiry by
the Appropriations Committee, after the
deficiency bill is disposed of.

gress.

nous Fields Report Stable
Gains in Week.

Recovery to New High Level
Attributed Partly to Less
Labor Trouble.
SOFT is UP II PER CENT.
Special Despatch to THE suy.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 80. - Good news
from the coal regions was contained in
the weekly report of the Geological
Survey on the situation both in the
h!tuminous and anthracite fields of the
United States.
Increased production over the mid
summer slump in production is noted.
The increase in production of btu
minous coal in the week of August % to
1o,671.o00 tons from e,ose,Oo0 the pre-
vious week represents a gain of 17.s per
cent. Whereas production in the week
of August 1s was 100000 below tho
week of last year, that for
the week of August % is only 1000, 900
below the high level of 1918 at this time
The recovery to a new high level for
the year is attributed to quickening of
demand and the abatement of labor
trouble. mainly on the railroads.
The production of anthracite like that
of bituminous coal, recorded a good in
crease in the week OF August %. the out
put being estimated at ,S6S. 900 net tons,
with l,642,00 tons the week
of August 16.
