Mrs. Harry Murr's persistent ad-

There was one loss which hurt her
keenly. She and Mrs. Warning had
been closest friends; and the fami-
lies were intimate. The two moth
ers had even discussed the possible
ty that Phil might marry Ann War
ing. But week after Mr.. Sentry
was indicted, Mrs. Warning took Ann
away to Europe to school there. The
decision was sudden; Mrs. Sentry
knew it had not been planned in adj
vance. And Mrs. Warning left with
out even a note to say good-by.
Mrs. Sentry never spoke Of this
hurt to anyone. In the same way
she ceased to resent the curious

They talked a further while; and
Mrs. Sentry said at last that she
would let him know her decision

For all these things, Mrs. Sentry
found strength and courage; but one
thing she could not face. She could
not read the newspapers, or look at
them. Since the first few days, re-
porters had been kind. Carl BEETLE
had been of service in that respect.
He had put through with the pub
fishers of the other papers an agree
ment not to print photographs Of
Mrs. Sentry or Phil or Barbara,
and to use their names as little as
possible in news stories. When Mrs.
Sentry thanked him, he said:

friends know; all of them are feel

And she thought again, desperate
1y: Perhaps Mr.. Falkran can per-
suade some woman to say she was
Arthur's mistress, that he went to
her that night. Pay her to say it,
perhaps. No price would be too
high, to save him!
And she reflected that by thinking
this, she was admitting to herself
her actual opinion Of Mr.. Falkran;
and she felt contamination of the
spirit. Felt herself unclean. To be
pitied by her friends, to seek the
help of scoundrels :.
Nevertheless, for all their sakes,
if Arthur was to be saved, Mr.. Falk-
ran it must be.
The weeks that elapsed before Mr..
Sentry could be brought to trial
were long, but they were curiously
empty; and Mrs. Sentry, used to
activity, came in the end to accept
this emptiness, to understand that
their world would hereafter be thus
CONSTRUCTED, whatever the outcome
of the trial. It was not so much
that her friends dropped away.
Some did so; yet others, upon whom
she had not counted, surprised her
by their understanding loyalty.
But the larger world in which she
had been active, all the organized
benevolence in which she had TAX
en- a vAogous part, now-though
with polite expressions of regret
nevertheless closed its doors against
her. The designations which she
felt it her proud duty to offer were
accepted. She hid as she could her
fierce resentful pain.
She missed Mary dreadfully;

Phil. Linda came often to the house,
and Mrs. Sentry thought: Perhaps

this. I had hoped Ann Warning

A curious crowd stared at them as
they came out, and Phil said, as
they drove away, "You can wear a
veil next time we come, Mother"
II shall not wear veil," she an
swered, fighting to forget Arthur, to
forget how gray and lifeless the
flesh on his cheeks had seemed, and
how dull his eyes were. She must
forget, so that she could be brave
enough to come to him again.
At home. Barbara was waiting
with questions. They told her he
was fine; was cheerful, confident,
and unafraid. They brought her
back to comfort for a while.
Dean Hare, a day or two later,
brought Falkran to see Mrs. Sem
try and Phil. Phil was not at first
favorably impressed. The lawyer
was big man, bald save for a
fringe of red hair above his ears,
with the wide, loose mouth of the
natural orator; and Phil thought he
studied the rugs and the furniture
with a shrewd appraising eye, and
he saw his mother visibly conquer
her distaste for the man.
She asked, after introductions
were done, care you familiar with
my husbands case, Mr.. Falkran?"
II see the newspapers have con-
victed hin?"
Her eyes hardened. "You think
him guilty."
Falkran, suddenly, smiled; and
Phil at that smile felt a quick liking
and trust for him. The lawyer said.

II asked whether you think my

He smiled again. His smile had
won many jury. He said reason
ably: "Mrs. Sentry, I haven't even
talked with him. don't know his
side of the case at all. I only know
the published facts. Mr.. Hare has
told me nothing. The evidence is
damaging, difficult; but there are a

Phil saw that his mother too was
being won to liking. She put her
question in another way. eff you

James Roosevelt Comes Out or Operation Successfully

Rochester, Minn., Sept. 12-(UP) President Roosevelt divided his attention today between his eldest son, James, and the critical interna- tional situation. Although he spent most of his time in St. Mary's hos pital at Mayo Clinic, where James underwent an operation yesterday for removal of a stomach ulcer. he studied reports of the latest Euro pean developments, sent him by Secretary of State Cordell c. Hull. Mir. Roosevelt was cheered by the findings of physicians that the ulcer had been non-malignant and count ed on the good physical condition of his son to pull him through.
 He and Mrs. Roosevelt and James Roosevelt's wife. Betsy, visited at the hospital three times yesterday. He said he would remain here until he was convinced that his son was tout of the woods" which may not be for another 48 or "a hours. He is living aboard his special train which brought him here from Hyde Park, N. Y.

T understand the doc- tors had a tough time getting through your old rowing muscles. " James, like his brother, Franklin, rowed in the Harvard University varsity ahell.
 Dr. Gray told the president that his sons blood-pressure, pulse and respiration were virtually normal. He said he would be up in 13 or IA days provided there were no com plications but would have to remain in the hospital for at least three weeks. He said that the next five days will be the period during which complications might develop. Dr. Gray said that the ulcer, which was one and one-fifth inches in diameter. was of the penetrating type and eventually would have perforated the wall of the stomach. The opera ton. which had been planned for tomorrow, was advanced 24 hours, It was performed a short time after the president arrived and gave his consent.
