LONDON, Jan. 9.—Taking advantage ef the continued and increased cold weather, which has frozen the marshy land adjacent to the numereus rivers of North Poland, the Germans are be- ginning a new and important move- ment en masse on Warsaw, from the north, Coincident With their new movement from the north, the Germans have re- sumed violent offensive operations. to the west of Warsaw. The present assault on Warsaw from the north follows the demonstration of four weeks ago when, advancing from Mlawa, the Germans were repulsed across the border. This advance, h: w- ver, was made merely for the purpose of getting acquainted with the grovnd and to assist Gen MacKensen’s attack on Warsaw from the west. The present movement is in greater force and ou a considerably wider scale than the pre- vious one, swinging further to the easi- ward. The troops engaged in it dre said to include the army corps recently taken over from Belgium. The German. intention seems to be to try to force a route through Pryasnysz, Pultusk and 8 eroc „n mos Rivers to Cross. 8 taking this direction it will be nec- _ essary for the Germans to cross the vivers Narem nd Bug, the latter of which is not sufficiently frozen to pro- vide safe transportation for the heavy artillery. Meanwhile the Russian sweep througi the Austrian crown land of Bukowina continues unchecked, according to news dispatches reaching London, and this army is expected by British observers soon to be well over the mountains forming the boundary into Hungary. Servia, with her army more or less rehabilitated, is described in London as atacking the dual monarchy from the south with renewed vigor. Austria de- clares that the latest Servian attempts have been repulsed. “Nevertholess, credence is given in England to the reports that Germany ix planning to throw troops to the as- sistance’ of her ally in a third attempt to crush the country of the Hegg In Bdelum aes x the . are making some hard earned gains and the Germans also here and there are making progress.

Implicates Boy Friend. The actual killing, he said, was done Ey an older friend of his. He gave als friend’s name, but said he did not know his address. Even were his story true, his own criminal responsibility would hardly be lessened, but the offi- cers here do not believe that it is true or tvat anyone but young Coggins and his stepmother were in the house at the ime of the murder. When handcuffed and brought int the Sheriff's office to be given into, the charge of the St. Louis detective, Coggins smiled and examined his hand- Cuffs with the curiousity of a child looking at a new toy. “Well, I guess you got me now,“ he said to the St. Louis officer. ‘I hope you can catch the other fellow, too,“ he went on. He ought to be made to suffer for killing my stepmother. “It must have been the wine which I drank the night before that got me, he said. I had a few drinks of wine, and then some whisky with this friend of mine before I went to my step- mothers.“ Pawned Ring and Clothes. Coggins said that on Monday, the day before the murder, he pawned a gold signet ring and some clothes at a pawnshop on Sixth street, getting $2 on the ring and $4 on the clothes. He had this $ in his pocket when he went to the Coggins home, he said. Coggins said he was invited to his father’s house by his stepmother, and that he invited his friend to accompany him. He said they sat together at the table eating, when his stepmother reproved him for biowing his nose. Then, he said, he replied with a tauni, and his stepmother picked up a butcher knife an started toward him. He then related that his friend choked Mrs. Coggins, and asked for a handker- chief, and that he handed the friend his handkerchief, with which the friend strangled the woman. He said he vent out and left them, and that he stood at a door in the lower hallway. smoking a cigarette, while his friend killed the stepmother. Says Friend Dictated Letter. He said that after returning up- stairs, and finding his stepmother dead, he helped to place her body on the bed, and at his friend’s dictation, wrote a note which he placed in her hand. This was the note which spoke ‘of a future meeting in Chicago, and which ended with the words ‘‘A—i, comet, bound.“ This, he said his friend told him, was “yegg lingo,” and would cause the be- lief that professional crooks commit- ted the crime, “Why did you not knock him down when he attacked your stepmother?’ he was asked. Well,“ he replied, it was no affair of mine. She was no kin to me, and then he was a bigger man than 1 was. If I had killed him, you folks would have hanged me, so I thought I had better not take a hand.“ Says His Mind Was Hazy. “Then, while you were smoking a cig- arette downstairs, just inside the front door, you knew that she was being slow- ly choked to death?” he was asked. Well.“ he said, my mind was hay. You see, I wanted a cigarette mighty bad, and I didn't pay any more atten- tion to her. “She screamed once when he started to put my handkerchief into. her mouth, and that was why I went and locked the back door, went back upstairs and then down to the front door. I thought that some folks might come in and dis- turb us. “Then, too, I wanted to smeke a cig- arette, and did not want to smoke it before her, because she was a lady. and the best friend that I had.“ While Coggins admitted that he wrote the notes found on the folded hands of the dead woman, he denied having written the query which appeared in the Post-Dispatch Wednesda), asking 5 WOMEN ADVERTISE FOR A CANDIDATE, PICK SALOON MAN Chicago Club Chooses Alder- manic Leader From Broker, Clergyman and Others.

POCKETBOOK DIAGNOSED Ethical“ Rules Allow and Up“ Rates According to Patient's Wealth and Social Standing. Doctors who belong to the St. Louis County Medical Society have a price list which prescribes the minimum fees which they can ethically charge, but permits an elastic maximum “and up.,“ according to testimony in the suit of Dr. John H. Armstrong of Webster Groves, against Harry A, Block of the same place, in Justice Matthews’ court, at Clayton, yesterday. Dr. Armstrong sued Block for $176, of which $100 was for a gallstones op- eration and $76 for visits. He testified he had charged the minimum allowed by the medical society price list for an operation of that character, and he felt that the charge was also reason- able, inasmuch as he had removed more than 2000 galistones. Francis M. Curlee, who defended Block, wanted to know how Armstrong computed them. Armstrong said he counted 1100, ranging from the size of a strawberry seed to that of a pea, and there were at least as many more that he did not count, so he estimated the number at 2000 to be conservative. Thought Fee Too Large. Block admitted he felt better after- ward and was willing to pay m- strong a fair price, but he thought $176 too much. When Dr. Armstrong was asked how he arrived at the $100 fee, he produced the fee book of the medical society, in which it was set forth that the ethical charge for any operation on the stom- ach, liver or gall bladder was $100 to $500 and up.“ He explained that mem- bers of the society, in fixing their fees, were not allowed to go below the mini- mum amounts named in the fee book, but based their maximum charge on 2 diagnosis of the patient's — book. Patients were charged, in other words, according to the doctor's impres- sion of their financial ability and social position. It was very unethical, he explained, for a doctor to charge less than the minimum. If a patient was not able to pay the minimum charge, as set down in the fee book, a doctor might treat him for nothing. Society Called “a Conspiracy.” Attorney Curlee contended that $176 was an excessive charge against a man earning only $75 a month and having two children to support. He resisted payment also on the ground that the medical society waa a trust and a con- epiracy. Dr. Armstrong asked Curlee if lawyers did not charge according to the financial ability of their clients. Curlee said it was true, but the lawyers had no fee scale and no minimum charge. ‘The jury gave a verdict for the doctor. Curlee filed notice of appeal to the Cir- cult Court. The fee book sets forth the principles of medical ethics of the American Medi- cal Associataion, one of which is that doctors should as a general rule make it a point of honor to adhere to minimum charges with as much uniformity as varving circumstances permit. The fee book specified charges for about 200 operations and treatments, the minimum charges ranging from $1 for an office treatment to 38590 and up for different operations. Some of the charges are: Fracture of nose, $15 to 650; any fracture involving a joint, $25 to $100; amputation of finger or toe, $10 to $60; incision of the drum membrane of the ear, $10 to $60; rupture, $100 to $500 and up.“ FAIR, WARMER TONIGHT, UNSETTLED SUNDAY THE TEMPERATURES, Yesterday's Temperatures.

WIFE TRAPS HER HUSBAND AND K WOMAN N Holt. „e Number She Found in His Pocket. A. quarrel which begau last April, when Leroy P. Gremmer bought an au- tomobile and took. his wife riding in it just once, resulted in the arrest, about 2:80 a: m. today, of Gremmer and a young woman in the Marquette Hotel. The young woman gave her name to the police as Mrs. Edith Rosears. Gemmer formerly conducted the West- ern Labor Ageney. 5 North Eighth street. The double arrest was brought about’ by a long course of detective work on the wife’s part. Gremmer and the woman were taken to police headquai- ters, and the wife said she would prose cute them on a statutory charge.’ But Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Wilson, after hearing the wife’s: story. declined to issue a warrant. He said the wife had failed to make a previous prosecution, on a charge of wife aban- donment. stick,“ and that he saw. no use of taking the husband into court again. Assistant Circult Attorney Baer, to whom the wife then went, took the same view. So Gremmer and Mrs. Rog- ears were freed. Mrs. Gremmer, who is 24 years old, has lived for four months past at the home of her father, J. C. Stubbs, 123 North Garrison avenue. She told Post-Dispatch reporter her estrange- ment from her husband. started when he bought a seven- passenger automo- bile last spring, Ker having pawned her three diamond: rings to make the initial payments on the machine. Got Only One Ride. As her jewelry had helped him to buy the machine, the wife said, she thought Gremmer would at least let her share the use of it. But one little ride, she declared, was all she ever got. After that, Ker husband would motor away without her, and she began to hear reports that other women were riding with him, in various parts of the city. They separated early in September, but not, the ite said, until she had “got @ line“ on Gremmer's associa- tions, by means of a telephone number which she found written on a card in his pocket. There is publication which contains a backward telephone directory, and by consulting this. Mrs, Gremmer could have seer in a minute to whom the number belonged But she did not know this, and she went through an ordinary telephone direct- ory, proceeding in alphabetical order, tot five hours, until she found the num- ber.

ADMITS SHE HAD PLANNED DIVORCE Him Repeatedly Despite Promises He Made. Qin By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Jan. 9.—The silence of Mrs. Caroline Giddings Rogers, legiti- mate wife of Lorlys Elton Ro , has been broken by a statement i d on her authority through Emery R. ‘Buck- ner, retained by her to obtain # divorce from the romantic lawyer. She has been repeatedly duped by her husband, she said. She had discovered him in many infidelities, had forgiven him on his promises of giving up such conduct in the future, and had repeated- ly discovered him in new derelictions. Che admitted that she agreed with Rog- ers that if, at the end of a certain period, he found his feeling toward Mrs. Walters possessed the dignity of a steadfast love, she would divorce him. Mrs. Ida Sniffen Walters, from her sick bed in Lebanon Hospital, at a time when it was thought certain she would die, said that her reason for trying to kill herself and her. children was that she had been convinced that Mrs. Rogers would never give up Lorlys Rogers. Later she told District Attorney Martin that she had begun to fear also that Rogers was tiring of her and experi- companicnship of his wife. Remeves Cause for Act. Mrs. Rogers’ statement strips from Mrs. Walters the cause for her des- perate act, save as Rogers may have represented to the woman of the Bronx household that Mrs. Rogers was op- posed to a divorce, Mrs. Rogers says that at the end of the period of Rogers’ last probation, as agreed upon between them, she made no further effort to retain her hold upon him, and on Oct. 1, last, determined upon divorce. that direction when the poisoning of the two children and Mrs. Walters’ attémpt at suicide brought the case into sudden notoriety. “Mrs. Caroline Giddings Rogers has known Rogers since 1891, Buckner said. “when she met him casually in New York City. In 1901 she moved to Chi- cago, where she kept house for an aged uncle until she married Rogers in 190). At that time Rogers had been divorced by his first wife. The wedding took place in October, 1909, at the home of her uncle in Chicago, and the marriage met his entire approval. “At that time Mrs. Rogers believed that Rogers was deeply attached to her, as she was to him, and there was abso- lutely no talk of any mutual agreement for divorce in case either party should regret the marriage, as has been stated. If at that time she had not confidently expected that the marriage would be happy and successful, she would not have entered into it. ‘Mr. and Mrs. Rogers moved at once to New York City and took an apart- ment at 552 Riverside drive and for some time their life was very full of happiness, until the story of Rogers infidelity with Mrs. Walters was told. Agreement for a Separation. ‘Then there began an exhibition of loyalty and devotion and struggle for an ideal the like of which I have never witnessed. It was during this period of ‘struggle to save her husband that Mrs. Rogers, at his request, finally agreed that if, after a certain period, he should find his affections perma- nently elsewhere and should no longer desire her to be his wife, she would give up the struggle. “At last, in October, 1914, Mrs. Caro- line Giddings Rogers realized that her patient loyalty and long struggle had been in vain, gave up the fight, defi- nitely separated from her husband and determined quietly to seek a divorce.” News that Mrs. Rogers means to sue for, divorce was told to Mrs. Walters yesterday. She grew half hysterical with happiness. “Then perhaps all my waiting ani suffering have not been in vain,“ it is reported she said, and even this awful thing I did will be the means of bring ing happiness and giving my children the proper place before the world.” She has not been told her children are dead GREAT MASS OF PROOF of 30,000 Cases of Kid- ney Trouble, Some of Them St. Louis Cases.

By Associated Press. GERMAN ARMY HEADQUARTERS POSEN, Dec. 19, delayed in transmis- sion, via London, Jan. 9.— Even the occupation of Warsaw and of the Vis- tula line would/by no means signify the end of the campaign. The Russians, with their immense territories, can fall back indefinitely. Defeated at Warsaw. they can fall back on Ki, from Kiev on Moscow, and eventually even on Viadivostok. Of course, we cannot fol- low that far.“ Thus spoke Germany’s popular here, | Field Marshal von Hindenburg, to a correspondent of the Associated Press, in the course of a four hours’ conver- sation today. He explained how the midwinter Poland campaign in which the Russian advance was checked and rolled back had involved frightful blood- letting. Never in the days of the Battle of Tannenberg and the retreat of the Russian General Rennenkampf's army from the Mazurian Lakes did the Rus- sians lose so heavily as in the san guinary fighting around Wloclawek, Kutno, Lodz and Lowicz, said the Field Marshal. He added that at least 140,000 Russians had been killed or wounded since Nov 13 and that 110,000 other Russians had been made prisoners. The contest, ac- cording to Von Hindenburg, had been proceeding everywhere favorably to the Germans and Austrians since the fall of Lodz and the commencement of the Russian retreat. Yet, Field Marshai von Hindenburg declared, all the fight had not been taken out of the Russians - Enquisttive About United States. So large of frame is the Field Mar- shal that he seemed under, instead of over, the average height. He has a large head and rugged shoulders and wears a heavy sweeping mustache, less aggressive in curve than the Emperor 8, but equally characteristic. The Associated Press correspondent dined with Von Hindénburg and during the meal the conversation was informal, cares of the army leader seemingly hav- ing been forgotten. In the workroom of Von Hindenburg was a staff map of Poland, overflowing from the table on all sides to the floor. Von Hindenburg was inclined to switch the conversation from the war to the United States, which he had long been anxious to visit. He was not so much interested in the skyscrapers of New York as he was in the country west of the Mississippi Val- ley—California, the Yosemite, the Grand Canyon and other places of scenic grandeur, of which evidently he had read much. ai ed, g The Interviewer, with effort, however, turned the conversation to the war. Von Hindenburg said that the situation was very favorable. There was not much to justify the extravagant hopes based on the announcement of the col- lapse of the Russian offensive, he said. The Russians are tough opponents and are not easily brought into motion,” he said. They have prepared a long series of positions, All the way from Lodz to the Vistula they are falling back slowly with all the advantage of position on their side. Yet I think they are hardly able to bring on many moro troops of quality to oppose us. Says Fall of Lodz Turned the Tide. “To raise army corps on this front, the Far East and the Caucasus have been stripped of regular troops, and un. drilled men, good only for guarding communications and other services, are in the rear.“ Asked as to the fighting qualities of the Russians, Field Marshal von Hin- denburg said it was hard to make a general statement in this respect as the quality of the men varied with the dif- ACTRESSES’ GOWNS ATTA*HED Jefferson Hotel, However, Hold First Lien on Fritsi Scheff’s Property.

Without Rennenkamp’s inaction there would have been no Tannenburg.“ “Is it true that so many thousands of Russians perished in the Mazurian Lake swamps?” Von Hindenburg was asked. Not at all,“ came the reply that de- stroyed another cherished legend ‘of the war. “There are ho swamps in Tannen- Lerg into which we might have driven the Russians, whose losses were San in prisoners taken.“ The conversation tan a wide range of topics: The Field Marshal talked to whom he said he would give bayo- nets; of the bravery of his Austrian ally; of the clothes basket full of let- ters he received daily, some of them from the United States, and with spe- cial amusement of the quantities of gifts that were being forwarded to him. Today he received 5000 pints of beer for his personal use, 1000 cigars (he does not smoke), an immense eake, which was brought in during the dinner and which bore in -icing an advertisement of a lady’s blouse which has beeti named in his honor. At 10 o’clock the Field Marshal ex- cused himself and went into his of- fice with his chief of staff for the nightly consultation.

Following are the most striking utterances from President Wilson’s Jackson day speech last night: Democracy Is Progressive. WOULD not speak with dis- respect of the Republican par- ty. I always speak with great respect of the past. The past was necessary to the present and was a sure prediction of the future. “The Republican party is still a covert and refuge for those who are afraid, those who want to consult their grandfathers about everything. You will notice that most of the ad- vice taken by the Republican party is taken from gentlemen old enough to be grandfathers and that when they claim that a reaction has taken place, they react to the re-election of the oldest members of their party. They will not trust the youngsters. They are afraid the youngsters may have something up their sleeve. “My friends, what I particularly want you to observe is this. that pol- itics in this country doés not depend any longer upon the regular members of either party. There are not enough regular Republicans in this country to take and hold national power; and I must immediately add there are not enough regular Demo- crats in this country to do it either. This country is guided and its pol- foy is determined by the independent voter, and I have come to ask you how we can best prove to the inde- pendent voter that the instrument he needs is the Democratic party and that it would be hopeless for him to attempt to use the Republican party. I do not have to prove it; I admit it. What seems to me perfectly evi- dent is this, that if you made a rough reckoning you would have to admit that only about one-third of the Republican party is progressive; and you would also have to admit that about two-thirds of the Demo- cratic party is progressive. Therefore, the independent pro- gressive voter finds a great deal more company in the Democratic ranks than in the Republican ranks. I say a great deal more because there are Democrats who are sitting on the breeching strap; there are Democrats who are holding back. There are Democrats who are nerv- ous.

The Democratic party and only the Democratic party, has car- ried out the policies which the Progressive people of this coun- try have desired. There is not a single great act of this present great Congress which has not been car- ried out in obedience 60 the public opinion of America, and the public opinion of America is not going to permit any body of men to go back- ward with regard to these great matters. “Let me instance a single thing: I want to ask the business men here present if this is not the first Janu- ary in their recollection that did not bring a money stringency for the time being, because of the necessity of paying out great sums of money by way of dividends, and the other settlements which come at the first of the year? J have asked the bankers if that happened this year, and they sey no, it did not happen: it could not happen under the Federal reserve act. We emancipated the credits of this country. “And is there anybody here who will doubt that the other policies that have given guarantee to this coun- try that there will be free competi- tion, are policies which this country will never allow to be reserved? “T have taken a long time, ladies and gentlemen, to select the Federal Trade Commission, because I wanted to choose men and be sure that I had chosen men who would be really serviceable to the business men of this country, great as well as small, the rank and the file. These things have been done and will never be undone: They were talked about and talked about with futility until a Democratic Congress attempted and achieved them. “But the Democratic party is not to suppose that it ia done with the business. The Democratic party is still on trial. The Democratic party still has to prove to the independent voters of this country not only that It believes in these things, but that it wili continue to work along these lines and that it will not allow any enemy of these things to break its ranks. This country is not going to use any party that cannot do continu- ous and consistent team work. If any group of men should dare to break the solidarity of the Democrat- ic team for any purpose or from any motive, theirs will be a most unen- viable notoriety and a responsibility which will bring deep bitterness to them. “The only party that is serviceable to a nation is a party that can hold absolutely together and march with discipline and with the zest of a con- quering host.” Team Work Only Can Win. . AM not saying these things be- cause I doubt that the Demo- cratic party will be able to do these things, but because I believe that as leader for the time being of that party I can promise the coun- try that it will do these things. “I know my colleagues at Wash- ington, I know their spirit and their purpose, and I know that they have the same emotion, the same high emotion of publie service that I hope I have. “I want at this juncture to pay my tribute of reapect and of affectionate admiration for the two great Demo- cratic Senators from the State of Indiana. I have never had to lie awake nights wondering what they were — to do. And the - is — — ee — —— — ee That If They not going to trouble itself, ladies and gentlemen, to lle awake nights and wondering what these men are going to do. “If they have to do that they will choose other men, and that is all there is to the business, Team work all the time is what they are going to demand of us, and that is our individual as well as our collective responsibility. “That is what Jackson stood for. If a man will not play on the team, then he does not belong to the team. You see, I have spent a large part of my life in college and I know what a team means when I see it; and I know what the captain of a team must have if he is going to win. So it is not idle figure with me. “Now what is their duty? You say, ‘Hasn't this Congress carried out a great program? Yes, it has carried out a great program. It has had the most remarkable record that any Congress since the Civil War has had; and I say since the Civil War because I have not had time to think about those before the Civil War. “But we are living at an extraordi- nary moment.

But I am not quite so malevo- lent as that. “Some of them are misguided; some of the mare blind; most of them are ignorant. I would rather pray for them than abuse them. But the great voice of America ought to make them understand what they are said to be attempt- ing now. I have to say, Are said to be at- tempting’ because they do not come an dtell me that they are attempting them. I do not know why. I would express my opinion of them in par- liamentary language, but I would express it, I hope, no less plainly because couched in the terms of courtesy. This country is bursting its jacket, and they are seeing to it that the jacket .is not only Kept tight, but is riveted with steel. „The Democratic party does know how to serve business in this coun- try, and its future program is a pro- gram of service. We have cleared the decks. We have laid the lines now upon which business that was to do the country harm shall be stopped and an economic control. which was intolerable, shall be We have emancipated America, but America must do some- thing with her freedom. There are great bills pending in the United States Senate just now that have been passed by Representatives which are intended as constructive measures in behalf of business—one iN ; great measure which will make avail- able the enormous water powers of this country for the industry of it; another bill which will unlock the re- sources of the public domain, which the Republicans desiring to save locked up so that nobody could use them. “The reason I say the Republicans have not had a new idea in 30 years is that they have not known how to do anything except to sit on the lid. “Now, if you ean release the steam so that it drive great industries, it is not neecssary to sit on the lid. What we are 1 rying to do in the great conservation bill is to carry out for the first time in the history of the United States a system by which the great resources of this country can be used instead of being set aside so that no man get at them. I shall watch with a great deal of interest what the self-styled friends of busi- ness try to do to those bills. Defends Mexican Policy. OW there is one thing I have got a great enthusiasm about, I might almost say a reckless enthusiasm, and that is human. liberty. Tue Governor has just now spoken about watchful waiting in Mexico. I want to say a word about Mexico, or not so much about Mexico as about our attitude toward Mexico. 1 hold it as a fundamental prin- ciple—and so do you—that every people has the right to determine its own form of government and until this recent revolution in Mexico, un- til the end of the Diaz reign, 80 per cent of the people of Mexico never had a ‘look in’ in determining who should be their governors or what their government should be. Now I am for the 8 per cent. It is none of my business, and it is none of your business, how long they take in determining it. It is none of my business, and it is none of yours, how they go about the busi- ness. The country is theirs. The Gov- ernment is theirs. The liberty, if they can get it, and God speed them in getting it, is theirs. And, so far as my influence goes, while I am President, nobody shall interfere with them. . as long as they wanted and spilled as much blood as they pleased in settling up their affairs, and shall we deny that to. Mexico because she is weak? No, I say! I am proud to belong to a strong nation that says: "This country which we could crush stiall have just as much freedom in her own affairs as we have.’ “So I feel, my friends, in a very confident mood today. I feel confi- dent that we do know the spirit of the American people, that we do know the program of betterment which it will be necessary for us to undertake; that we do have a very reasonable confidence in the support of the American people. J have been talking with busi- ness men recently about the present state of mind of American business. There is nothing the matter with American business except a state of mind. I understand that your Chamber of Commerce here in In- dianapolis is working now upon the motto, ‘If you are going to buy it, buy it now.’ That is a perfectly safe maxim to act on. “It is just as safe to buy it now as it ever will be and if you start the buying there will be no end to it, and you will be a seller as well as a buyer. I am just as sure of that as I can be, because I have taken counsel with the men who know. I never was in business and, therefore, I have none of the preju- dices of business. I nave looked on and tried to see what the in- terests of the country were in business and I have taken counsel with men who did know, needed in America now is to be- lieve in the future; and I can as- sure you as one of those who speak for the Democratic party ‘that it is perfectly safe to believe in the fu-- ture. We are so much the friends of business as we are for a little time the enemies of those who were trying to control business. I say for a little time because we are now reconctied to them.

Just the thing—awfully jolly,’ said the boy, giving me a squeeze that near- ly broke my neck. “*Then not a word to your uncle,’ I said, as soon as I could speak. ‘Mum's the word,“ said the boy with a wink. “Si I fixed him a bunk on this ere couch we're a-sitting on, and, as it was bitter cold, started a bit of fire in the grate.

Then he was aroused, poor chap, by a Tow murmur of voices, and sitting up he Saw on the hearth two figures talking together—one a girl with long black hair, and the other a young man who held her hands and was bending his face down to hers. Both of em was dripping wet, and he could hear the trickle of the water as it fell on the big stone hearth they were standing on. Their faces were turned from him, but in the girl's hair was tangled a quan- tity of seaweed. “Did I tell you Jack was a plucky little fellow? he was, to the backbone. He said to himself that what he saw was ‘an optical delusion,” I believe he ealled it, that there was nobody but himself in the room—there couldn’t be, because the door was locked. ‘What do you want—who are you?’ cried, and with that jumped out of bed and came straight towards the two figurés. As he advanced they retreated towards the ‘| window; and when he reached the win- dow there wasn’t anything there, though the window was shut except for @ little space at the top.

He was perfectly healthy, Jack was, and hadn't much idea of the gu- pernatural. “But now comes the strange part of it; for as he was dressing the next morning what did the boy find but a pool of salt water on the stone hearth, in that little hollow you can see from here that has been worn in it, and lying in it a bit of fresh seaweed, in which was tangled a long black hair! Then, as Jack told me, his own hair began to rise in good earnest,.and he was scared. “So that morning after breakfast he takes the bit of seaweed to his uncle ge asks him if he'd ever seen any like "Lhe professor looked at the piece of wet weed, and his color went like the out of a lighted taper.

It makes them better people to come in touch now and then with the joys of children, even though they be other people’s children. Yet there is a limit to such appre- ciation and interest. When, oh, when, will a mother realize that nobody can possibly see all the cute and cun- ning little traits that Johnny is de- up? When will she take the cue to keep her little boy or girl behind the scenes instead of in the center of the stage of other people’s do- mains? The few folks, dear mother, who are so close to you that they will want to know every littie thing your Johnny does will ask you for such minute details as you are no doubt anxious to give about him. But, aside from this, remember that no matter how bright his sayings or how clever he is, no one can possibly see him through the rosy magnifying glasses that belong to the equipment of motherhood. It is a hardened individual indeed who doesn't respect a mother and ap- the like of which love is yaknown elsewhere in all the world. At the same time she will keep her friends and draw to herself the sympathy and friendship of others if 4 re- spects the truth that it is a re to have the doings of her little one re- counted to people whose interests are It is a prevalent attri- ing for thefr own comfort and that of their friends.

It had taught me among other things to leave the old Susan behind, to be willing to say: “Not my will, but Thine.”’ Often as I thought of my life, what I in my ignorance had intended it should be and what it was, I wondered at my DARING to plan for such a selfish ex- istence. My dreams of wealth, of plea- sure, were all over. Work for those I loved filled my days and my mind. So in the main I was happy; happy and contented—strange as it may seem with my husband in prison, my children away. My little hoard in the savings bank increased slowly but surely. I used to gloat over each small deposit as bringing nearer the little home I fair- ly ached to possess. Religion had never meant much to me until I felt the NEED of God. I wanted now to know Him.

FLAM was strangely, silent V about the time he spent with Jack and when my _ curtosity compelled a question he only said: We talked of business, my dear, and subsided into his paper. But I felt a sensation of mystery about him. He was doing something for us, for Jack, and as was his way, did not want to talk about it. Had I sus- pected what it was I should have been impatient of the hours, yes the min- utes, until it was an accomplished fact. Knowing me, Mr. Flam realized this, and so kept his own counsel. Fer several days after our return I noticed an air of expectancy about Mr. Flam. Then there were strange vis- itsrs, visitors I knew had no interest in Wal street. His mall, too, came in for an unusual amount of attention. He took to putting letters in his pocket fafter he had read them, and to send- ing me into the outer office when the strange men were shown in. I un- consciously became so excited that I could scarcely attend to my duties, and it was only by the greatest exercise of will that I compelled self to keep my mind on my work. After the departure of his visitors Mr. Flam at times would appear highly elated, then again unaccountably de- pressed. What could it all mean? Would he keep me in ignorance, or would he tell me when it was decid- ed? That it had something to do with Jack. I was positive. Among the other hard lessons I had learned was to be more patient. But it was almost more than I could do not te question Mr. Flam. (To Be Continued.) * “The Duke’s Walk.“ O meet one in the duke's walk,’ This is an invitation to fight a duel.

Walker. NE day a fish that lived in O large pond came to the surface and flopped upon the bank. Then he flopped along until he was quite a way from the pool, for he was an in- quisitive ‘fish and wanted to know how the people who came to the pond figh- ing lived. He thought they were 50 queer looking he felt sure their homes must be queer also. When he saw the houses and the win- dows and doors he became a discon- tented as well as an inquisitive fish, and, hurrying back to the pond, he flopped into the water and down to the depths and to tell his companions what he had seen. “Now, what you want is a house,” he told them. “If we had a house with windows and doors we would be safe from those fishermen who come here with the cruel hooks.” „But how can we get those houses? asked another fish. “We cannot build houses, and we must live in the water.” “No, we cannot build houses and our house must be one that holds water.“ said the big fish. “I have a plan, and if you will agree to stay awake tonigh:« and do as I tell you we may be able to have a house.” „We will do anything you say.“ said his companions. “How long will we have to stay awake? ; “Perhaps all night. Anyway, it will be midnight before the fairies come down by the pond,” said the big fish. HEN the fairies came to the pond that night they were surprised to see hundreds of heads sticking out of the water, and still more surprised when the big fish made known his strange request. ; „We cannot do a ped selves, said the Queen, “because you must have a house in the water, and we cannot work where it is wet, but we will see the gnomes and see what they can do for you. “Come here tomorrow night and We will tell you what they say.” But the gnomes could do nothing, and the fairies went to the goblins. “We cannot work with water all around us,“ said the goblins. “If they want to live where it is damp but no: all water we will see what we can do.“ So the fairies told the fishes what the goblins said, but that would not do. It must be a house that holds water,“ said the big fish. „We might try the cave witch,” said the Queen; “she knows everything Even if she cannot do it herself, she knows how it can be brought about.“ So they went to the cave witch. “No, I cantiot do it,” she told them; “put you ask Jack Frost. He is a snappy fellow, and 1 am sure he will think of 4 way to help.your friends.” So all the little fairies put on their fur hoods and Goats and oversnoes and away they went te Jack Frost.

While it is not known what Huggins will get for Wingo, unless he gets “Rube” Benton, Buck Herzog and Gar- ry Herrmann, he will have far and away the worst of the deal.
