give each other furtive glance, and
then seem to reflect upon their fathers

state Of the times. Florence did not
keep them waiting long, however.

The blackmailed partners made no
reply, on account Of an inability that
was perfect for the moment.
Florence made 1t clear to them that
henceforth she was sole editor Of the
North End Daily Oriole. (She said
she had decided not to change the
name, after .all.) She informed them
that they were to be her printers,
nothing more; she did not care to get
all inky and nasty, she said. She
would, however, do all the writing for
her newspaper, and had with her a
new poem. Also, she would furnish
all the news and it would. be: printed
just as she wrote 1t, and printed nice
ly, too; or else"look out!''
Thus did this cool hand take pos
session of an established industry, and
in much the same fashion did she con-
tinue to manage 1t. There were un-
suppressible protests; there was CO.
vert anguish; there was even strike
but 1t was a short one. When the
printers remained away from their
late newspaper building, on Wednes-

own door. He explained coldly that
