GO ON WITH THE STORY

But now she was going blackjack
Kate kept saying to herself.
When the first grazing light finally
came through the cracks between the
window frame and shade, Kate Ward
gathered her things and went to the
dressing room.
She was eager! There was some
thing of the girl about her eagerness
1t was little after when the train
pulled into town. Palestine was DC
ginning to awaken. Its folk who
titled the fields of Illinois corn had
finished their harvesting and were
taking it easy for a SPELL"
Kate Ward wanted to see the man
whom she hoped would still be out
in the little washed house near
the cemetery. She wanted his well

of any of the others. So, instead OF
going down the one main street, she
took a by-way and skirted the town,
making way with hasty steps toward
the spot she hoped had remained I'M

like the same birds trilling in the trees.
But IL years are long! Hates heart

these years?
How could women care so much
and then bury it In their hearts like
some beautiful, fragrant flower that

selves and cruel to the one they loved.
A half sob caught her breath and

land we all know those over there

and the profiteers made millions dur
ing the war, all the lime over here"
There were men in the Civil war in
the south that got very rich-made
merely during the war, running the
blockade, getting cotton out and
over, and other things.
Compare two brothers-one went
to France, one stayed at home and
got SIS per day, and to promise the
same bonus to each as a compensa-
ton. You prat about the dis
abled, but don't tell it, that all the
disabled are being cared for at vast
expense, spending millions to do it..
That's all right, should be, but to
give the 100000 that never did
anything but draw SIS per day
against 100000 who went over to
France, is preposterous."
Ut is known that the government
Is now spending $1,000,000 per day
to care for the disabled and keep
up hospitals) Oh! What a political
scheme this bonus bill was. The
fellows THAT draw IS per day over
here, were nagging their congress
men to get "more," like the horse

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 2S.-Detectives
today closely questioned Mrs. Harry
Bren--, German war bride, to ascer-
tain her knowledge of the robbery
of the grave of Miss Celeste Schnei-

The police are trying to learn

of beir her husband, was that of
Miss Schneider, who was buried Sep

That Mrs. Brenn had made such a

The detectives connected the burn

finding on Wednesday Of an open
grave in the cemetery. A sexton

The Bonus Law Defeated

The Bonus Law Defeated
One of the ablest speeches made
in the United States senate, when
the final result of the bonus law
was completed, was made by Senator
John Sharp Williams, of Mississippi,
approving the veto of President Har-
ding. I copy some extracts: '"This
is bill to give bonus to something
like 100000 men, over one-haf of
whom never faced a shot, over one
half of whom never went across the
seas, one-fourth of whom never
served outside a military camp, one
tenth of whom, men and women,
were serving with shoulder straps
in Washington departments and
never got anywhere to illustrate
their courage. Why did they not
confine this bill to the men. who
faced fire, who offered their breasts
to the gunshots? Why did they take
in all the clerks in Washington, who
never did anything but wash them
selves every morning and live
more sanitary life than they had
been used to? If you hadn't put them
in, the politician wouldn't have got
much consideration. AS Joe Can
non said, those in these departments
wore spurs, for fear their feet might

Compromise Rumor
Follows Farley Of
N. Y. Democrats

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Sept. 28.-As
the Democratic delegates of the state
swung into action for their conven-
ton here today, party harmony"
became q dominant keynote for
everyone from Charles F. Murphy,
Tammy Hall leader, down the line.
There was no announcement that
a compromise had been reached by
which some ticket could be selected
without a hitch. but as plans for the
opening the the convention were
completed there was a distinct
change in the atmosphere.
The new development hinged on
a conference which began late last
night between William A. Deford,
spokesman for William Randolph
Hearsts followers; Mayor Hylan,
Edwin S. Harris, assistant campaign
manager for Hearst, and Mr.. Murphy.
The conference, of course, was
secret. But it was noised around
that the leaders had reached a de-
cision but not one Of them would
admit it
Apart from the possible result of
the conference, the belief among
delegates continued that they would
go into the convention on distinct
Hearst or Smith basis. They saw
chances for a compromise candidate
but they insisted that unless some
thing was developed when the four
men got together last night to
change the situation, they would be
asked to cut the line sharply be-
tween the two Heading competitors
for the nomination.

Blackheads-big ones or little ones-soft

just dissolves them. To do this get about
two ounces of calonite powder from your
druggist-sprinkle a little on a hot, wet
cloth-rub over the blackheads briskly for
a few seconds-and wash off. You'll won

calonite powder and the water dissolve them
right out, leaving the skin soft and the
pores in their natural condition.
