back. There were the lessons that
had been assigned for the next day,
Of course, and I supposed probably
Father would want me to study those.
But I couldn't imagine Father teaching
me all alone. I couldn't imagine my
self reciting lessons to Father!
But I needn't have worried. If !
could only have known. Little did !
think-But, there, this is no way to
tell a story. I read in book, "How
to Write Novel," that you mustn't t
"anticipate." q thought folks always
anticipated novels. 1 do. I thought
you wanted them to.)
Well, to go on.
Father got home at four o'clock. I
saw him come up the walk, and I
waited till was sure he'd got settled
in the library, then I went down.
He wasn't there.
A minute later I saw him crossing
the lawn to the observatory. Well,
what to do didn't know. Mary said
to 60 after him; but Marie said nay,
nay. And in spite Of being Mary Just
now, I let Marie have her way.
Rush after him and tell him he'd
forgotten to hear my lessons? Fa-
ther? Well, I guess not! Besides, it
wasn't my fault. I was there all
ready. It wasn't my blame that he
wasn't there to hear me. But he
might remember and come back. Well,
If he did, I'd be there. So went to
one of those bookcases and pulled out
q touch-me-not book from behind the
glass door. Then I sat down and read
till the supper bell rang.
Father was FIVE minutes late to sup
per. I don't know whether he looked
at me or not. I didn't dare to look at
him-until Aunt Jane said, In her
chilliest manner:
IT trust your daughter had good
lessons, Charles"
had to look at him then. l just
couldn't look anywhere else. So I
was looking straight at him when he
gave that funny little startled glance
into my eyes. And into his eyes then
there crept the funniest, dearest little
understanding twinkle-and I sudden
ly realized that Father, Father, was
laughing with me at a little secret be-
tween US. But t was only for a Sec
ond. The next moment his eyes were
very grave and looking at Aunt Jane.
81 have no cause to complain-of
my daughters lessons today" he said
very quietly. Then he glanced over
at me again. But had to look away
quick, or I would have laughed right
out
When he got up from the table he
said to me: II shall expect to see you
tomorrow in the library at four, Mary"
And Mary answered: "Yes, Father
polite and proper, as she should; bu.
Marie inside was just chuckling with
the joke Of it all.
The next day I watched again at
four for Father to come up the walk;
and when he had come In went down
to the library: He was there In his
pet seat before the fireplace. (Father
always sits before the fireplace,
whether there's fire there or not.
And sometimes he looks so funny sit
ting there, staring into those gray
ashes just as If it was the liveliest
kind Of fire he was watching.)
AS I said, he was there, but had
to speak twice before he looked up.
Then. for q minute. he stared vaguely.

Are to Be Disposed of
tRy the Associated Press)

Washington, Aug. 7.-An agree
ment under which amendments to
the more important sections Of the
tariff bill are to be disposed of be-
fore the close of the week was in ef-
feet today in the senate. The agree

final vote could be had before Sep
tember l.
The agreement to get the more inn
portant items still in dispute cleaned
up this week, so far as amendments
are concerned, came during debate
on the sugar schedule. 1t will serve
to curtail sharply discussion on many
points and was worked out by sew
eral hours Of conference between
majority and minority representa-
tives. Tuesday. and before adjourn
ment that day vote will also be
taken on amendments to paragraphs
dealing with potash and white ars-
enic. On Wednesday the leather
schedule, boots; shoes and hides, will
90 through the mill and on Friday
will come action on sections propos-
ing flexible tariff adjustment and
also on scientific" tariff proposals.
Saturday will see remaining
amendments taken up in order but
beginning on that day Senators will
be limited to fifteen minute discus
sions of any amendment and to
thirty minutes on the bill itself.
Senators will work on time limit
during the entire debate this week,
being restricted to an hour on any
of the amendments included in the
agreement.

is WAIVED

Bottincau, N. D., Aug. 7.-Waiving
preliminary examination when ar
raigned on charge Of shooting with
intent to kill, Jack Smith, OF Mo-
hall, was bound over to the next term
of district court in Bottineau county
under $4,000 bonds. 7
Smith has not furnished the bonds
as yet. He is still held in the Bot
tineau county Jail.
The charge against Smith came
about, following the shooting OF Ed.
Jones, also of Mohall, harness
maker. Trouble over financial mas.
ters between the victim and alleged
assailant is believed by authorities to
have been the direct cause of the
shooting.

FRENCH TAKE
STERN STEPS
ON WAR DEBTS
First of Measures to Penalize
Germany Are to Be Put
Into Effect ~,

Paris, Aug. 7.-Premier Poincare
at noon today notified the German
| embassy at Paris that the first of a
series of measures to conserve French
interests against lapse in Ger
many's pre-war dest payments would
be put into effect Immediately. Til.
notice followed the receipts of note
from Germany refusing to meet tb,
100000 pounds installment of these
payments to French citizens due Au-
gust Is.
The first Of the French measure.
consists of the immediate suspension
Of all payments to German nationals
for debts contracted with Frenchmen
before the war, bJth in France and
Alsace Lorraine. The Offices in Paris
and Strasburg which were set up to
liquidate the debts were notified TO
cease functioning at once and to pay
no more German claims until further
orders from the premier.
The initial measures also include
the suspension Of all further pay
ments to Germans for German prop
erty sequestrated in France. This
property includes estate, villas, art
collections, etc. IL.
1t was explained at the foreign Of
fee that these first measures taken
are not penalties, in the strictest
sense of the word, but merely action
to safeguard the French interests
which have been jeopardized by the
Germans refusing to pay. @
If these measures fail to bring a
satisfactory settlement further and
more severe measures, it was said,
will be enforced. The nature of these
is withheld pending the effect of the
present action. .
