The following morning Mary rose early and walked into the nearest village. There were some medicines she must buy for Dick.
 Passing watchmaker's shop sho spied some imitation jewelry in the window, rings, brooches and geW- gaws of various kinds.
 There was an imitation diamond" ring on sale for s1l Curiously enough, the diamond" was very much the same size and shape as her own that she'd posted up to town!
 Mary, looking at it, had thought. Perhaps 1t would be well to pur- chase the fake stone
 She couldn't analyze her thought. But she went in and for the modest sum of s1 bought the ring.
 She asked the jeweler to remove the stone from it's setting, which he did, a trifle huffily, assuring her that the little ring was perfect Of it's kind.
 Mary didn't argue the point. And it was not long before she left the shop with the fake stone in her pos session, carefully wrapped in tissue paper.
 She then returned to the Barley Now, gave Dick his medicine, had a cup of coffee, and proceeded toward the railway station.
 It was pleasant, sunny morning -"exactly like the morning of my dream" she told herself, laughing little at her last nights fears
 On a clear, fresh day like this one couldn't possibly be nervous.
 And yet-when she reached the railway staton-she asked the sta ton master If he'd seen Cingalei around.
 The station master hadn't. Marys mind was quite relieved. The train, when it came in, was almost empty. She took a hurried survey of the cars. They held no sinister Oriental.
 She found a comfortable seat in an empty car which she had all to her self The train was an express one and didn't stop until they were close to town. She was glad of that. The whistle blew. The train set off.
 Mary glanced below the seats. laughing a little at herself over her

HOUSE OVERRULES
 COMMITTEE ACTION
Completes Consideration ot Contested Schedules of
 Tariff Bill
Bv As.oclated Press

Washinggotn, July 19.-The House finished consideration of contested schedules In the Fordney tariff bill today by placing asphalt on the free list and, thus, In four of the five par agraphs open to seperate votes, over ruled the action of it's ways and means committee in framing the measure Dye control provisions of the bill as drawn, were the only sec tion of the five not upset by House votes.
 After dsposing of the asphalt amendment which rejected proposed duties ranging from 50 cents to g 8 to,, the House began consideration of the numerous 'perfecting" amend ments which the ways and means committee deemed necessary. It raised the proposed duty on dried beans from 1A to 1% cents a pound, and increased the duties on shelled almonds from 8 cents to 12 cents a pound, and shelled walnuts from 5 to r cents pound in rapid order. The business of ''perfecting" the l bill then was stopped by a long par i liamentary fight. It was recur- renee of the controversy or yesterday l ranging about claims of the demo- c7ats that the republican members Of the ways and means committee had not allowed the minority to pass on the amendments before they were of- i fcred. They wrangled for two hours Some members declared there was nothing fair in the treatment; others that it was an old-time custom.
 May Be Offered
 Al the end of the argument, Repre- sentative Campbell of Kansas, pre- siding ruled that the amendments could be offered. The decision was immediately appealed by Represents tive Garner, democrat, of Texas, but the House sustained the action by a narrow margin.
 1 The democratic side took advant- age of the time offered for discus sion of the amendments designed to l clarify and define provisions of the l bill to deliver denunciatory speeches about the bill in general. Severa i times they were thwarted by re- l publican points of order that they were not discussing the amendment under consideration. These objections were sustained without exception. In the course of the slough of five minutes talks, several democrats pressed Chairman Fordney of ths ways and means committee, for 2 statement as to when they would be permitted to offer amendments. Mir Fordney paid no heed for a while but when the demands became in sistent, he fairly shouted:
 Just as soon as the democrats gel control of the House, they car amendment the tariff. They can't dc Lit here"
 The democratic fight embraced z wide range with little or no response from the republican side except iron Mir Fordney, but charges that tht bill was drawn in the interest of "tht trusts" kept cropping out continual l ly, but MT. Fordney contended non' would derive more protection thar the smallest infant industry"
