her, Cherry lived through the next
three days. Alix noticed her mood,
and asked her more than once what
caused it. Cherry would press "a hot

pain, and flutter away. She was well,
she was quite all right, only she-she
was afraid Martin would summon her
sOon--and she didn't want TO go to
him!
Suspecting something gravely amiss
AliX tried to win her confidence re-
garding Martin. But briefly, quickly,
and with sort of affectiOnate and
apologize Impotence, Cherry refused
TO discuss him.

said breathing hard, and with the air
Of being more absorbed In what she
was doing than what she was saying.
"But do you mean that you are
really going TO leave him?" the older
sister questioned.

"But, dearest-dearest, you're only
twenty-four; don't YOU think you
might feel better about it as time goes

money is all yours, Cherry, and you
can have this nice home 10 come to

Cherry was looking at her steadily.

said.

can't people who don't love each other

with a half smile.
"N-n-ot as man and wife" Cherry
stammered.
Alix sat hack on her heels, in the I'M
graceful fashion of her girlhood, and
shrugged her shoulders

Senate Approves 80 Cent Tariff on
Wheat.

Washington, July by a vote of
IS to II. the Senate approved tod y a
tariff OF 80 cents bushel on wheat.
democratic leaders declared during
the debate which preceded the vote
that this rate would cost the Ameri
ca, people 100000, 900.
Senator McCumber \RepD North
Dakota, in charge of the me slrc,
stated frankly the purpose OF the rate
was to keep above the world level the
price OF Northern shipping, which
from the Dakols and Minnesota,
said he did not think the tariff pro-
posed would be carried on to the
coi istmer. but even if it was, it would
not amount to s. year to each con-
Srnicr.
With the wheat fight out OF the
way, the Senate made unusually rapid
progress in the bill, approving several
scores of committee amendments.
! he first to be agreed upon was a
duty of 7S cents per 100 pounds on
flour, all increase OF 2S cents over the
House rate.

Farmers Share Small in Price Paid
for Bread.

Washington.-A loaf OF bread, the
ielt commission on agricultural in
quiry said in report published, OF
fers a striking example of what hap
penns to :he farmer1 product in the
way of costs and profits before 1t
reaches the family table.
About so cents out of each dollar
the consumer pays for bread, the re-
port said, is absorbed in the cost OF
distribution The farmer gets only
200 cents in the locai market for
the wheat needed To produce it A
survey showed that the average cost
of getting the wheat ready for the
baking state was 81 cents, while the
average cost of manufacturing it into
bread was 1910 cents.
"A considerable factor in the bak
e-'s cost of distribution which aver
ages 1870 cents of the consumers
dollar is the service element" said the
report.
Our inquiry does not indicate that
the manufacturing baker has exacted
an undue profit in taking the So cents

DAUGHERTY is LET IN, TOO
Attorney General is Warned to Keep
Firm Hold on Job.

Washington, June 2o.--Attorney
General Daugherty was warned in the
senate today to look out for his job,
rs Senator Spencer was endeavoring
to dispose OF it in Missouri The
waning came from Senator Caraway
Of Arkansas, who brought before the
senate the letter Spencer wrote Jesse
w. Barrett, attorney general of Mis-
souri,. urging him not to be a candi-
date for senator and intimating that
he might be made federal attorney
general. Senator Caraway said he
was interested in what obviously was
an offer from Spencer to Barrett to
have the latter placed at the head of
the department OF justice, but that he
was unable to determine how Spencer
proposed to get rid Of Attorney Gen
eral Daugherty and what service the
Missouri senator had rendered the
Republican party that the office of
attorney genera.' had been placed at
his disposal
Spencer entered general denial to
the charge that he was conspiring to
put Daugherty out of the cabinet.
His statement in the senate followed
the lines of his explanation of his let
ter given to the newspapers yester-
Gay. He was frequently interrupted
b.; Caraway, who always shot back at
h'm the sentence from his letter to
Barrett.
Il do not think either the health or
ir c..naton of Mr.. Dlugherty will in
cline him to indefinite service in the
pc. ition which he now holds.
