Anne lay in bed, listening to BORROWING It was the day of the school entertainment, and the audience consisted mainly of mothers, proud or envious, according to the parts their children were playing.

THE RUB Disappointed, through her inability to put finishing touches to her costume for a dance, Anne Chamberlain is irritated by the stolidity of her escort, George Hildreth. At the dance a visitor in the community, ' Neal Conrad, young lawyer, is impressed by Anne, preceding her fine character. A few days later she accompanies bim and his hostess, Mrs. Griffin, on a picnic. At the end of the day Neal declares his love and they become engaged. The At Washington, on marriage is solemnized. their honeymoon, the Conrads meet Clarence Hathaway, friend of Neals, young diplomat. The young couple start housekeeping.

CHAPTER VI He had uot seen, the next morning when, earlier than usual, he left for his office He still had not seen, three weeks later, when the duly registered voters of the district signified at the polls their willingness to have him rep resent them in the legislature at that winter, and he came home, in the gray dawn following election day, to tell her so. During the intervening time, struggling, striving to beep od her feet, and do her work, Anne had waited, at first hopefully, then despairingly, for the confidences which she had expected he would pour Into her ear, the advice which he would seek from her worn She was sure there anly intuition, must be principles at stake, great principles by which he must either stand or fall. Instead, she heard, when he had time to talk to her at all. about rallies, about advertising space in newspapers, about quantities of cigars and dozens of bottle of whisky. Sick as she felt, she longed to have him ask her to go with him to some of the public meetings, but he never did. He had a secretary at his office pow, Miss Lillie Letts, who chewed gum and wore transparent, shirtwaists; but she was efficient she did everything for Neal that Anne had pictured herself doing some day. Anne sat at home, coughing her head off for her cold had settled in her chest and ach ing all over, mentally as well as physically. There were no evenings together in the Morris chair, her head on his shoulder, his arms about her. She tried to wait up for him. night after night, but she was so tired, and he was so late nearly always after midnight. She was never asleep when he came in, but whether he hesitated to risk disturbing her, or whether he was too tired himself to crave for her knew companionship Anne never which it was he tumbled into bed beside her without a sign that he was aware of her presence. In the morning he never wakened until she shook him gently, telling him that he had overslept, or the telephone hell Jan gled across his blurred senses. Then he bolted his breakfast, and was gone Then finally he came to her and told her that he had won. . . . So that was what a campagn was Bel-for- Rabbit Whats the cause of ' your grouch?

Neal felt that he must, as far as possible, catch up with his neglected profession. Tt had been neglected, of course; but it had not suffered. He had gained prestige as a successful candidate, and new cases poured in upon him. He decided to beep an extra room, and Miss Letts. He really needed both. At last, he talked to Anne about his plans for going to Bel ford. shall have to be there at least from Monday to Thursday every week. I The sessions will be over in April Of course it isnt as if you were in a house all alone. I know Mrs. Simmons is right here, and you can call on her, if you need anything. This time, had any reply been expected of her, Anne could not have made it. He meant to leave her behind The idea bad never occurred to her, and here it was all mapped out, in orderly fashion, in his mind. He would miss her so little, with his new interests, that be could face with resignation with approval the thought of being separated from her more than half the time for several months. And she would not have left him, for any known bribe, to spend a few days during the torrid summer among the mountains, that were so dear to her. She had slaved for his comfort, for his well being, and she had insured both, at the cost of her own radiant health, for try as she might, she could not seem to pull herself up physically. Mercifully, she did not doubt either his love or his sincerity, as indeed, she had no reason to do. He was looking at the situation in the reasonable, logical way, the way he always looked at everything, the way that enabled him to get ahead so fast In the flush of his victory, Neals dormant passion for her awakened again and burned more hotly than ever before. But it had a different quality. If it was more Intense, it was less tender. He sought to possess her the more completely in the present because the past had dispossessed him, and because the future was about to do so, fiercely resentful of a condition for which he had only himself to There was a lack of sponblame. taneity, a weariness, in Annes response, which changed it from an answering flame to a mere affectionate and dutiful acquiescence; still she never failed to respond. And Neal noticed the change in her far less than she noticed the change in him. . The holidays brought a flash of Neal had whipped his affairs into shape, and was ready enough to Join in a few festivities before his departure. Somewhat tardily, he became aware that Annes trousseau had grown very shabby, and that neither she nor he had suggested that she might like to have some new clothes. Neal gave her two dress lengths a black satin and a green voile and she made them up herself, on the superior sewing machine. On a visit to Boston, he bought a long, coat, with hat to match, and sent them to her. He never knew how seldom she wore His days in Hinsboro which them. dwindled to one, or at the most two, a week, were spent in feverish activities at the office. He gave up all pretense of getting home to supper, not even telephoning any more to say that he could not do so. From Belford he wrote her hurried little notes on scratch paper every day well, nearly every day. It did not surprise him that her letters were not much longer, and not much more communicative than his own. He did not dream that day after day when he was not at home and Indeed often when, nominally, he was, she did not get up at all, or very little. The cold had vanished.at last, leaving her weak and listless; but uncontrollable nausea had taken its place. She grew steadily worse, while the tiny flat In which she had taken .such pride and which she had kept so sweet and shining was left to neglect and disorder. And still Neal didnt guess, didnt notice Of course he loved her, loved her dearly, but was he blind? 1 gay-ety- d the wind howling, to the icy tapping of sleet against the window panes.

She had not tried to get np at all since it made her faint with dizziness even to cross the room to her bureau, and, after all, what was there to get up for? She drew the tumbled sheet up about her head to shut out the sound of the storm. As she did so, the doorbell rang. At first she paid no attention. It rang insistently. At last she staggered to her feet, thrust them into her and threw her soiled kimono When she about her shoulders. reached the front door, some one was pounding on it.

World Slow to See Value of Morses Idea Dana, Morse conceived the idea of the telegraph in 1832, while returning from abroad. Because of lack of funds he was prevented from completing a working mode) until 1835. In 1837 he produced a more perfect system and filed his caveat at Washington. In 1838, thinking his Invention sufficiently perfected for commercial use, he asked congress to construct an experimental line to show its practicability; but his request encountered only skepticism and ridicule. Disappointed, Morse turned to foreign governments for aid, but again met with sharp rebuffs. Determinedly, he struggled on, bearing the severest privations. When on the verge of despair, he received word on March 4, 1843, that congress had appropriated for the proposed trial. Work on the project, a line from Washington to Baltimore, was completed early In Simple Explanation A parachute contest was held recently. One man who drifted a long soon, bein? He had carried her back to bed, still SURE PROOF It was on May 24, 1844, that the Inventor, Samuel F. B. Morse, sat at the key in the United States Supreme Court room, at Washington, and sent the words, What hath God wrought, over the telegraph line to the receiver In Baltimore. This successfully climaxed the many long years of toil and hardship which Morse had endured to produce the Instrument by means of which the commercial methods of the world were to be radically changed. Morse was born at Charlestown, Mass., April 27, 1791, and grew up in an atmosphere of learning, his father having been a minister and noted geographical writer. Graduating from Yale at the age of nineteen, young Morse wert to England to study painting, and upon his return proved him self adept at the art. Becoming In terested in electrical matters through his intimacy with Prof, J. Freeman Largely through the research of the Department of Agriculture, many improvements in insecticides, and fumigants have been perfected.

Dr. Henry G. Knight, chief of the bureau of chemistry and soils, explains that one of the serious problems connected with the general use of insecticides is the possible effect of their residues upon human health. Restrictions as to the arsenic content in products for both domestic use and for export have been met by improved methods of washing fruit, but these methods add to costs and may cause storage losses. Department experts constantly are experimenting to develop more effective insecticides that are harmless to man. 1844, and the test demonstrated to the world the practicability and utiltic ity of the Morse telegraph system. Morses telegraph was quickly adopted by many nations, and he wafl showered with honors by European governments. When in later years his claim to the invention was disputed, Morse successfully defended his rights. Much of the money he received, however, was spent in the virtually ceaseless litigation over infringements upon his patent rights. Morse died April 2, 1872, as he approached his 'eighty-seconbirthday.
