come into his eyes as he enumerated
them specifically: "Rebecca, Rachel,
Ruth, Jacob and Levi"
But the big family did not entirely
represent kith and kin Of the generous
hearted fellow who had come from
his home across the water with wife,
to lose her In year, and to have her
aged father and mother, neither now
fit for hard work, as pensioners upon
his bounty. How gladly and unself
ishly this was awarded, the uniform
willing kindness and care of Ivan
manifested to all the world. He did
not earn much and their quarters
were confined, but not only did he
manage to make the old people COM
Portable, but when a close friend,
widower, died, Ivan adopted his five
little ones.
Il have none; they shall be as my
own," he pledged himself, and never
failed In the sacred pledge.
Ivan was peddler of pins, needles,
yarn, and hose.
An incident occurred about six
months before Christmas that gave
Ivan secret to keep, but the result
Of which lie did not experience until
later. One day quite a distance from
the city, seated eating his humble
lunch on the veranda of road house

mentioned name that caused Ivan
to prick up his ears. 1t was that of
Alma Helmsby, the daughter of his
wealthy landlord. Ivan was quick
witted, pieced together the facts
named. and comprehended that one of
the men expected to have Miss Helms
by meet him soon In her automobile
and they were to elope. Enough was
CLEANED by Ivan to confirm the fact
that the fellow was merciless scoun-

the money Of the rich heiress.
1t was by pure circumstance that an
hour later Ivan came upon Miss
Helmsby In her automobile In his

Of the true character of her fiance.
She believed him, and pale and in
tears returned home. offering him
money for his service, which Ivan re-
fused, and imploring him to keep the
entire matter secret.
Ivan had forgotten all about this In
cident as time passed on. 1t was near

from one of his trips with bag full
of farm plumber for the little ones
and a great fat white goose. It was

They are strung on silk cord with or

fuel and perishahles were confidently
awaited by railroad officials. who Sat
urday appealed tn the commission to
use all of the emergency power vested
in it by the transportation, They ex-
pected the commission also to bar tenn
po ,arily the transportation of all dead
freight so that necessaries of life could
be rushed TO communities where short
ages soon will exist.
Developments in the last "a hours
showed that decidedly menacing con-
dition confronted the commercial world
through the tie-up of the financial re-
sources of business houses. Delay in
movement of products was declared to
have brought many plants face to face
with imminent shutdown, because of the
failure to finance further production
without heavy borrowings to replace the
money temporarily tied up.
Interest rates at this time are 50
high as to make that course out of the
question for most of the manufacturing
concerns, according to treasury officials.
1t was said the congestion WAS costing
the nation millions IA day" through un
