That al ltnnss come to them who
faithfully w1rk .nG have patience to
wait seemed alout TO be the case FOR
Brian. Thruogh Mr.. Mandel's influ-
ence, clients came to him as the days
passed-paying clients who helped him
have confidence in himself and in his
earning power. A feeling he had al
most lost when his country called him,
Major Williams was constant visit.
or. SO, very often, was Mollie King,
who had not given up her war work
with the coming of peace, but who, the
Msjor declared, "worked harder than
she did overseas"
Mollie was working in one of the
large base hospitals which had been es-
tablishcd in New York. She had taken
a room in private family and what.
ever time she could spare from her
work she gave to her fiancee, who
grumbled that the most uninteresting
private, if he had been gassed or wound
ed, had first place in Mollie's affec-
tions, and first claim on her time. But
Mollie only laughed and went quietly
on her way, knowing the man she had
promised to marry not only understood
but approved.
Only once did Ruth and Mollie refer
in any way to what had happened in
the days when Brian used to go to the
little Greenwich Village studio. They
were alone, one evening, waiting for
Brian and the Major when something
concerning an eseapado Of some one
they knew, caused Mollie to say:
"lf married women only knew that
half the time they were jealous without
reason, there would be fewer divorces
less scandal. Why, half the time when
married men go to another women gives
her his time, buys her dinners, it is

times, when neglected, indigestion re-

gerous things. And all these disorders
arise because the food is not properly

country from Portland. The present
low prices show a fall of 80 cents a
dozen and drop of 20 cents pound
on butter from the holiday prices.
These are about the only commodities
in the Salem market that have given
the housewife any relief, the only
vegetable that shows weakening be-
ing the humble potato which nobody
loves anyway. Dealers state that there
is no likelihood of decline in other
vegetables or in groceries generally

LONDON PRESS DIVIDED.

LONDON, April 25.-The peace con-
ference crisis continues to be the par
amount topic Of comment in London's
morning newspapers. The support
they give to President Wilson's and
Italy's views are, respectively abou.
evenly divided but with two or three
exceptions, opinions are expressed
cautiously and with manifest desire
to show friendliness for both Mr.. VIII
son and Italy and to avoid saying any
thing likely to hinder the speedy res
toration of harmony.
Four . newspapers emphatically
champion President Wilson's view
point, although, without exception,
with cautious moderation. The others
with equal moderation, sympathize
with Italy's claims, but chiefly plead
the necessity for composing the diver
gent views, lest the consequences be
disastrous to the conference. Two
others vehemently attack the presi-
dent.
