you think it would comfort you to talk
with a woman who has experienced and
suffered much you won't have to put
your shoulder out Of joint at my door.
Thomas had not given q single FUR
ther thought to Julie. He was surprised
that an experience can SO quickly be
completely obliterated. He tore up the
letter, and threw it in the waste basket.
He began his morning rounds, knocked
at various doors, saying Good morn
ing" and How are you?" He passed
cabins 35 and SO; he also passed cabin
"a.
On the foredeck Boris Mergentheim
was sitting in deck chair. and beside
him Prince Vladimir ON a camp stool.
The nurse was leaning against the rail-
ing at q discreet distance.
Mergentheim was telling about his
war experiences. He had been on three
fronts, before a piece of shrapnel had
struck him on the thigh at Verdun
1t was quite an unimportant wound but
it had got infected. requiring one opera
ton after another. Six months after
the armistice he still could only hob
BILE about on crutcheS; in bed he could
lie in only a single position.
Now understand" said Thomas
THAT was when you developed the
morphine habit"
you are wrong, Doctor. Time and
again the doctors offered me morphine
but always refused it. In spite Of in
describable pains and countless sleep

which is the doctors last remedy for
those who are hopelessly i'll.
''Of course, you will get across. DON t
| worry about it in the least. not even If
the pains come again. We shall just
blow them away-like yesterday"
The patient turned unbelieving eyes
upon Sister Martha. The nurse smiled
as If the doctors words had filed her,
too, with confidence.
She is an angel" said Mrs. Weber to
Thomas
"Of course, she is, but she doesn't like
people to tell her so," he replied with a
smile.

said Martha and blushed with diSpleas-
ure. But Immediately afterward she
said with her usual gentleness: How
can I be an angel II / am not even re-
ligious? don't suppose have said my
prayers since I was years Old
There was a letter on the desk when
Thomas returned to his consultation
room. He saw Immediately that it
hadn't been Sybl who had written his
name on the envelope. In spite of that
he was convinced it was from her. Ac-
tually, 1t was from Julie Kaposi.
You have treated me abominably
and I have hated you all day long. 1t

nections And never again in my
| life will touch card"
Soon after sunrise Thomas awoke and
couldn't get to asleep again. While he
was lying there with his eyes wide open
he knew perfectly well that Sybil. who
was accustomed to sleeping late. would
not come to see him at an early morn
ing hour like this.
Sybil might at least have sent me a
line to tell me when and where the in
terview might take place, he thought.
1t had hardly occurred to him that Sybil
might do this when he was convinced
that she would do it. He simply could
not imagine Sybil's giving no thought
to the restless torment which she must
know he was suffering while waiting
for her. Toward half-past 6 he got
up. Toward half-past he was with
Stephenson. Toward 8 with Mrs. Weber.
Shall really get acroSs?" asked the
patient. And as if she might persuade
him to favorable decision, she pointed
to photograph in the pine frame on
the table. 'That's my son, my Franz"
Thomas lied with that perfection

REAL CHANCE SEEN
FFOR a(HOUR WEEK
Miss Perkins Asserts Black
Bill Will Be Given "Se-
rious Consideration"
n the Associated Press.

n the Associated Press.
HARRISBURG, Pa April 13.-Miss
Frances Perkins, Secretary of Labor,
last night asserted the Black bill to es-
tablish 30-heur work week has a
real chance for serious consideration"
Miss Perkins spoke at a meeting at
which Gov. Pinchet said the two prob
lens raised by the economic distress
are the care of the unemployed and
reasonable security for workers against
future disaster.
The addresses were made at a meet
lag sponsored by the Pennsylvania Fed
Grafton of Labor, the Pennsylvania La
her Standards Commission and the State
Department of Labor and Industry.
Program Of Standards.
Miss Perkins gave a program of labor
standards as:
Minimum wage standards, shorter
work day. abolition of child labor, old
are pensions, security for workers, sanl-
tatien and prevention OF industrial dls-
eases and accidents and better housing
for workers.
She asserted every one wants prog
fess to social and industrial justice with
peace" and added that her program
could be accomplished I'm the tmmedi-
ate future"
Miss Perkins, in speaking of the 80
hour work week, said many manufac-
turers and managers of great industries
favored such legislation as q curb on
''uncivilized competition in industry"
Want Wages Pegged.
She asserted the prevailing request for
modification of the Black bill was to in
clude some way of pegging wages so
''they will not fall lower"
The next contribution of workers
leaders, she said, should be to see that
all working people receive the benefits
that organized groups have been able to
secure"
She asserted the safety of democratic
institutions rests ON the high level Of
purchasing power Of the wage earners
and asserted that there should be a
minimum below which wages could
net 60.

RALEIGH, April 24.-Sine die
adjournment OF the 1888 general
assembly depends on how soon the
two branches can come to an
amicable agreement on the reve-
nue. bill. and while it is generally
admitted that this can not be &C
complished until the first week iii
May, there are plenty of other
things that indicate that the 1888
session will soon be history.
For one thing, all the commit
tee clerks, with the exception OF
the finance committee clerk, have
been dismissed. Most of the COM
mitteeS, with the exception of the
finance committees. have virtual
" ceased to exist, since bills OF
statewide import have stopped
flowing into the hCppers, and It
has become the rule rather than
an exception for local bills to be
placed on the calendar or passed
under a suspension of rules with
out the formality of committee ac-
ton.
The reason for the cessation Of
statewide bills is obvious for the
reason that everybody realizes
that the legislature is now in rs
diving days and with the calendars
Of both houses fairly cluttered,
there would be little chance OF
new bills completing their course
through the legislative mill, what
with the revenue and school ma
chinery bills yet to be disposed of.
For the past week there has
been a food of local bills IN both
houses, but these almost invariably
have been placed on the calendar
or passed under a suspension OF
rules. Ordinarily, a request for a
suspension of rules to pass a local
bill is not made frequently, but
now that adjournment is in sight
no member wants to take a chance
on his bills being held up in COM
mittee and finally lost in the rush
to get home. For everyone knows
that as soon as the general assem-
bly, enactS revenue and a school
machinery bill, it is going home
without further ado.

WASHINGTON, Apr. IA. (UP)
Disarmament was suddenly wheel

between President Roosevelt and
Prime Minister Macdonald during
one of the busiest Sundays Wash
ington has seen since wartime.
British and American experts
spent the entire day at the state
department over monetary ex-
change and other problems upper
most in the international situa-
ton.
They were called to the White
House last night to make a report.
While awaiting the results OF
the weekend work Of the experts,
the president and the prime min
lister spent the day cruising down
the Potomac.
On their return they issued a
Joint statement saying that they
had been discussing the Geneva
disarmament conference.
To-day was occupied in Il thor
ough survey of the business OF the
disarmament conference at Cen
eva" the joint statement said. 1T
was felt by both the president and
the prime minister that the result
of the days conversations would
considerably advance the prospects
of success, both of the disarma-
ment conference and of the inter-
national economic conference.
"The president will continue
the discussion of disarmament
problems with M. Herriot."
Meantime the former French
premier had arrived. He declared
on his arrival that he came with
a sincere desire to cooperate and
that recent financial events made
the world economic conference
more necessary than ever.
His government has announced
determination to remain on the
gold standard. Premier Daladler
of France in a speech yesterday
expressed the hope that Great Bril-

PEIplNG. China. April 81 =
(UP).-Unitcd States diplomatic
authorities waited somewhat M
patiently yesterday and today tGT
satisfactory answer to shlrp
representations through the lcsa-
ton here against the confined
bombing by Japanese arpIaneS OF
United States mission property IL
North China.
The Japanese charge daitalns
forwarded the protest to the mil
tary headquarters OF Japars
Kwantung army, in charge of tie
advance into China proper, below
the Great Wall, and a reply from
the military was expected. l
The japanese had promised %
refrain from further bOmbingS It
American mission property n
their invasion below the Greh
Wall, but the Rev. Oscar kautp
reported that Church Of tie
Brethren mission property at Ta-
towying had been bombed a set
ond time. !.
Nelson r. Johnson, United
States minister. took no officisl
action following his dispatch of a.
note to the Japanese charge da.-
flares. S. Nakayama, and it WIS
not clear what steps could R
taken further in the event tffs
japanese military failed to &C
knowledge and reply to the note
promptly.
The entire exchange so far has
resulted in further straining the
diplomatic atmosphere in Peiping,
where foreign legations have
looked askance in recent weeks
at Japan's threat in North China,
endangering foreign lives as well
as property.
Foreign sources over the week
end reported that 1000 Japanese
and ManchoukuO troops were en-
gagged in Il battle with Il large Chi
nese force supported by an arm
ored train at the Shihem railway
station, five miles east of Laun-
chow.
