Was Established by John Stevens in
1911, Running Between Hoboken
and New York.

The first ferry in the world was
established in 1911 by John Stevens be-
tween Hoboken and New York. TAX
ing up the study Of steam in 1889, it
is recorded, he took out patents on ma
rine engines three years later, and
in 1898 completed his first boat, sue
cessfully operating it on the Hudson
river. In 1904 a second boat was
equipped with two screws and the
style of propeller designed by him was
for many years preferred above later
inventions. Though this was the first
application Of steam to the screw-pro-
peller, yet this design was the identi-
cal short, four-threaded screw used
today. 1t is remarkable that this form
Of propulsion was not practically intro
duced until 1887. His original steam
boat also contained the first condens-
ing ~double-acting engine ever made in
America, and a m~ulti-tubular boiler.
In 1907 he built the sidewheel steam
boat Phoenix, which was a few days
behind Fulton'S vessel in attaining the
legal speed, and was thus shut out
from the Hudson river; but he boldly
steamed her around to the Delaware
by sea, being the first to navigate
the ocean with the new motive power.

WORLDS FIRST STEAM FERRY CROW IS ENEMY OF FARMER
Under Modern Conditions There seems
Little Reason for the Birds Con-
tinued Existence.

The record of the is like It's
coat-about as black as black a be-
a writer in Detroit Free Press says.
It may be that in the great plan OF
nature, some time in the past, the
crow served a useful purpose-like-
wise the hawk and the buzzard. Take
the buzzard, for example. Once pro-
tected by human laws everywhere be-
cause useful for removing carrion,
the stencil of which offended the nos
trils of all animal life, it is now out
lawed, because man realizes that it is
better to burn or bury the dead-leaV-
ing no excuse for the existence of the
disease-carrying buzzard. So, in the
beginning, the mission of the crow, we
may conjecture, was to preserve some
equilibrium, some balance in the econ
omy of nature. 1t may be he was
placed here to hold in check the weed
seed and grain eating birds, because
weeds were a factor in the past in
covering the waste places of the earth
and making them fertile. However
that may have been, there seems to be
no excuse for his existence now since
man, the agriculturist, seeds the
waste places to useful grains and
grasses and needs the help of the in
s~ectiverous birds.

Stormed, already converted to the
shop religion. customers must no.
find the door shut. Run open it at
once. Suppose Mrs. Romilly dropped
in. We'd lose her-unless this no.
tOriety drives her away" A little
blush of shame fickered in Daphne's
pale cheeks a moment and went out.
She sighed: 81 suppose Mr.. Duane
has stopped that check, too-if he ever
sent it. Oh, dear!"
Then a nurse knocked; brought in
q card growing in a large little aza-
lea tree. Daphne scanned it. "Mr.
Thomas Varick Duane!" She peered
closer at the pencilings and read
aloud: "T just learned. I'm heart
Broken. Isn't there anything l can
do?"
Daphne felt as If outraged society
had forgiven her.

Mrs. Chivvis begrudged a stingy,
''Well, of course" She had the poor
folks conscientious scruples against
wasting praise on the rich. You'll
want to see him, l presume"
But Daphne had had enough of evil
appearance. 'See him here? Never! !"
She glared at poor Mrs. Chivvis with
a reproof that was excruciating to ac-
rcept, and ordered her to go down and
meet Mr.. Duane and incidentally learn
about the check. Business is bust
ness,'' she said.
Mrs. Chivvis descended in all the
confusion of a Puritan wife meeting
a Cavalier beau. She came back later
to say that Mr.. Duane was really very
nice, and spoke beautifully and had
sent the check and would send an
other if Daphne wished it, and would
make old Mrs. Romilly go on with the
order, and would she like some spe-
cial fruits or soups or something? He
was really very nice.
Daphne eyed her with ironic horror
and said, you've been flirting with
aim and me so helpless here!"
"Daph!-nee!l Kip!!w Mrs. Chiv-
Wis screamed. The only counter-thrust
she could think of was, "And what
does Mr.. Wimburn say?p
This sobered Daphne. Why had

MARTYRS"

The word martyr" has various
meanings. Specifically, it is still con-
fined to those who give their lives for
their religious convictions. The "Holy
Innocents'' are a notable example of in
voluntary martyrdom. The word mar
tyr should not be applied to a
person who loses mere property, but is
used to persons who have died while
striving to attain their object. The
dictionary gives as the primary definf-
ton of "martyr'-"One who submits
to death rather than forswear his re-
ligion; specif., n of the early Chris
tians who suffered death for their re-
ligion." In general, the word is used
also to denote one who sacrifices him
self for a cause, as a martyr to the
pursuit OF gealth.

CHAPTER XVI.

Leila was determined to endure
everything that might be necessary to
regain her beauty. She would go
ter casts or splints or. medicines for
that. She was quite grim about it.
Her resolution extended to the spend
ing Of as much of Bayard's money as
might be necessary on surgeons fees
and doctors bills. If she bankrupted
Bayard it would be with the tenderest
motives.
Five times she went to the operat-
ing table, made that internal journey
into %etherland, knowing what after
anguishes waited her, what retching
and burning and bleeding. She braved
death again and again, took long
chances with covering bravado. And
all for Bayard's sake.
One morning when Bayard reached
his Office after a narrowing all-night
vigil at Lella's side he was just falling
asleep over the first mail when his
telephone snarled. He reached for it
with alarm. A voice doomed IL his
ear:
"Ah you thah?"
eyes"
keep the line, please. Now. you ah
through. sir?"
Then a growl replaced the boom, a
growl that made the receiver rattle:
"Ah you than, Mr.. Kip? This is
Colonel Marchmont. I dare say you
remember our conversation about
those damned contracts with Weth-
erell. A little farther discussion
might not be amiss-if you could
make it perfectly convenient to drop
.ovvah at, say, a Quawtah pahst fab?
Good! 1 shall expect you at that
ah."
Bayard pondered. What new per-
~secution was fate preparing? AS he
went to the office, he bought an eve
ming paper. A heavily headed cable
gram announced hat the laborers in
the British munition works were strik-
ing or threatening to strike. A CLEAN
of understanding came into Bayard's
eye. When he reached the desk of
Colonel Marchmont he looked I'M
abaShed into the revolver muzzle of
the old war horses one eye.
Without any preliminary courtesies
or any softening of his previous tone
the colonel snorted: "Those devilish
contracts you made with Wetherell-
The poor fellow is no longer alive
more's the pity, but Well, I'm afraid
/ was a bit severe with you. l fancy
we might see our way to renewing
those contracts at a reasonable figure
say at a % per cent reduction from
the terms you quoted"
Bayard smiled and shook his head.
He bluffed the buffer. 1.-THE prices we
quoted included only a fair profit,
colonel. Since then materials have
been going up in price every minute,
owing to the demand from abroad.
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 a wallet full
of business. He got back to his office
on feet fledged with Mercurial wings.

II won't have you assaulting the

He groaned aloud at this, not TO-

She ran on. She had not talked to
him for so long that she was a perfect
c%hatterbox.
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 / 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 a pay
Duane off with interest. / 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 p~artner!" Clay rallied. "I'm
no partner in this business! / 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 a pile OF
money and still he was not happyl
