Ihe pjy.at is emphasized that the women will Ht form an auxiliary, but will be a Hart of the federation itself. ¥ This announcement apparently lnangtif rates anew policy for the women. 1 past the so-called weaker sex Las bee i content for form auxiliaries, aid societies and other similar helping hand organizations to be known as complementary to societies formed by men. The practical result has been that the fraternal, religious and social orders founded by the men have come to depend to a great extent ‘for. success upon the women's auxiliaries. Xhe annual banquet of the Ancient and Independent Order of Cuckoos, for instance, has been successful only insofar as the wives and daughters of the members have decorated the hull, prepared the food, served the banquet, washed the dishes and swept out the remains of the banquet cigars. Now the farm women have suggested a different order. At a meeting to be held la Indianapolis next month they uill form their organization aud, unless plans go astray, will be admitted to the Sti.'e Farm Federation on an equality with jnen. Women delegates from each county in the State are expected to attend the meeting, Perry H. Crane, secretary of the federation, believes the admission of women will prove beneficial to the organization. “Many problems confront the wives of the farmers which such a:i organization coold'help solve,” says Mr. Crane. “We believe that through the combined efforts Os the farmers and their wives the federation will render a greater service to the State. The women's branch will not be an auxiliary, but a part of the federatioa itself.”

In love with Myra, Is attorney for tho insurance company. Tile story is intense with Intrigue and romance. Read on from here. CHAPTER Vlll—Continued. On* could hear tha crowd breathe. Even the Judge turned and looked at the women. Milllcent was still a "good witness." She had answered without hesitation. Her placid pose seemed to Indicate that she knew wlsat was coming, and known from the moment she went on the stand, perhaps even long before, and was prepared for the ordeal. M; ra >egan dimly to guess at what Arthur 1 rowr.son meant when he said he could not permit a pur* and Innocent girl to make a friend cf Millie Campion. “With whom did you live in Chinatown ?” ■ “With other g'r!* ” Tlie villainous locking men and women, the “bunch of yeggs,” showed signs oi great interest. “Were yon born In Chinatown.

"You don't know your father's name?” name ?” “No." “Yon don't know wear father's came?" “N o." “Your mother's name?” "No.” "Do yon mean yon wars a foundlingV A naif?” "I auppo*s so, I don’t know." "Where vrer* you brought up?" "New York Juvenile Asylum, Randsil's Island." “What name did you bar* there?” ‘'Y'l'.ter. Mlllls Y'sfer.” “IT-iv did you c‘.me by Chat narn*’" “I get It from a girl I lived with.” “Mrs. Campion, the question 1 asked you was, where you were brought up reared, not when yuo were committed to an Institution. I *sk you again, where did you pass your enrllest In fancy, what Is your earliest recollection ?” “We object, your honor. What Is the sens* of all this digging luto the wltbabyhood.

She gazed at Ar ib-ir Brownson with scorn. Why was baring the sorb’d, drab facts of a poor little derelict’s awful brlnglng-up

by some dissoluat* woman among Chinamen In Mulberry street ?. Their eyes met. Arthur's were the first to fall. He went on as though he had not seen her: “Have a happy life with the Agnew woman and Charley Foo ?” “No. They beat me all the time." “How long did that last?” “Until I went to live with Mru. Sing Fat.” “Chinese woman?” “No. American.” “How did you com* to go there?” “She told me she wanted a daughter, so she bought me from Charley Foo.” “Bought you?” “She told iue she gave Charley Foe S2O for me.” “Did she treat yon well?" “When she was sober." "llow long did that last?” “Till I was 9 or 10.” “Then what happened?" _ “Mrs. Slug Fat died and a girl named Ynter took me.” "She gave you the name of Yater?” “Yes." "And then?” “The police arrested her and the Gerry ” pause “the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children got me and sent me to Randall’s Island.” ivra wondered why Milllcent revealed all this fearful Infancy without hesitation. but a glance at the evil men and women on tbe other side of the room showed that Arthur and his colleagues W"rn aware of all this history and that Milllcent knew- that they knew. The in is was still plu' id. unassuming, apparently the least Interested person In the room. Her brain must have been on !h alertost sentry duty against traps nnd pitfalls, but no sign of the strain showed op her facet “How long wore you In tl-e asylum?” "One year—about." ' \\ hat were the c!rcumster.ee* of your leaving ?” "I ran sway." 1 rota Randall’s Island? How did you get Ri-ross the river?” "1 hid on the boat back to the city," ‘“Why did you run away?” "The life was too hard.” The crowd laughed. Why? They *on-tra.-fej the orderliness, the regular mealp the qnlet dormitories, the certainties of th* asylum with the fierce ordeals of Doyers street. They overlooked Its liber!y and adventures. “1\ here did you go then?" •'Bn-k to Mulberry street. AM* Halligan hid me.” "Who was that Indy?” "Few Mulligan's wife; her father was a Chink—l mean a Chinaman.” “Did Mrs. HaFlgnn support yon?” “She lik'd me. I worked In The Northern Light, Ha'ignn's case, selling things, cigarettes, and did housework for Mrs, Halil gun, but had to hide from the Gerry agent*.” “The Northern Light, was that the notorious dance hall?” “They had dancing.” “Who were the patrons?” “People In Chinatown.” "How long did you lead that life?” “Till I was 14" “Beyond the school ago, tin you were safe from the Gerry Society. Then what ?” ‘I did fancy darc*e In HalHsran’e til! I couldn't stand him any longer. He was always striking me.” “Men eeeiued to have been hard on yon.” “I met only one kind of decent mnn in all my Ilf* till I meet my hueband.” “How long were you with Mr*. Ilalligar. ?” “Till I was 15 or 18.” “Then what?” "TTalllgan went out of bustness.” "Closed by the police?" “Y es.” “You and all tho ©thorn arrested?” "Yes.” "What happened tc yon?” "T> • y sent rue to another asylum." “What asylum?” “The Magdalen FTnme." Again one could hear th breathing of the crowd a end sigh. Myra was overcome with sorrow. She had the curious sensation for s moment that there were but three persons in that face-filled room, th- woman with the copper hair on th* witnese stand, Arthur Brownson stid her-.-lf. and that he was laying bare MIIII- - life for her alone to so*. “So at fifteen you were n Magdsl“n?” F!ere* protests from all Myra’s counsel. V, hit had all this to do with a suit to m ko the Foresight Insurance Company pay li * Just debt to Benjamlu Campion's daughter, that noble member of the Red Gross? “How long were you la the Magdalen Home?" “Threo months.” "Run away?” “I ran away.” "What did yon do then?” “I posed for an artist—Mr. Mantell.” “Mr. Mantell was a dletlnguished artist. llow did you get such a position ?" “ll* saw me In Chinatown end said 1 had a figure ho needed. lie Is the man T meant was kind to me.” “You lived In his studio?” “Yes." “Did Mr. Mantell leave you some money when he died?” "Yes. lla left me $5,000.

Why did you leave him?” “I was nrr*Kted.” “Where?" “In Doyers street.” “Y'ou went bark to Chinatown?” “I was visiting some girl friends. Wa

BY A ONES AYRES. Btar In Paramount Pictures. Glistening, glittering, glowing, gleaming, no Cinderella was ever more wonderfully frocked than the lady In the sketch. Cloth of gold is brilliant and wonderful, but not more brilliant and wonderful than this French dreßS, made entirely of Iridescent blue green sequins. Os course, with the present French vogue for sequins, with the fans and accessories made all of sequins, one might have eipected It, but one didn't. It burst on my view in all Its glory with startling unexpectedness. It Is severely plain as befits its material, h'gh In the neck and sleeveless, after the present mode, and Is unrelieved in color save for the small amethyst beads at neck, armholes and hem. Repeating the not* of amethyst, the very low three strand ribbon girdle Is of grosgraln ribbon la the same shade, and Is caught on the hip with a spray of pluk and blu- and emethyst flowers. Os course, Ilk* most of onr styles, It 1s made for the film figure—the slim figure that will be s§ alluring and sinuous as Clcpatra under Its straight, loon* frzcjj of shining scales. No plump little thing need try It. With It oue should wear a simple, dark cloak, seal, dined with ermine, perhaps, and only tha most conservative accessories, black satin slippers and black silk stockings, no brocade or lac*, and as little Jewelry as possible. Perhaps a matching bandeau or a dark Spanish comb. were all arrested.” “What was the charge?” “Drunk and disorderly." Tha crowu gasped, Myra shut her eye*. “Innocent—of—course.” “Guilty—of course.” The Inst two words esm* ont withdefiance. That was tha first time e’.e had mad* a retort, the Ctel i'.uie sh 6 was not a “good witness.” “How old were you then?” "Nearly 22.” “So yon admit thnt when Campion met you at 22 you were drunken ami dissolute?” “Y'our honor! Yonr honor!” The crowd was aghast at the ferocity of Arthur's attack. He seemed determined to bring out to the uttermosv degree the degradation, the utter rlleness of Mtlllccnt's life. Myra felt again he was thinking only of her. letting hot see the unworthiness of her friend. The girl, however, was not revolted. She had not served that six months’ part at her training in a charity maternity hospital without haring learned to read the secret soul of many such girl as MillL cent who had passed their lives In city slums lik* outcast animals. Her heart was filled with a great pity, a great sympathy. “Well, you met Campion. He supposed you pure and Innocent?” “He did not." Tha long grilling had begun to fray her nerve. Now she burst out. "Ha knew all about me. I couldn’t foo! any one Into thinking that. I don’t know what the words mean. I nevei was pur* and Innocent even when a child.” The blue summer eyes glinted now like steel, her lips shut tight. Her whole manner changed. She half leaned out of her chair as though inviting an attack. The crowd thrilled again. Not In many a long day had there been such a sensation. Myra suddenly lost her own mastery. She wns swept away by Mlllicent’s words, that wild cry from the depths. She sprang to her feet. Her voice rang out: “Your honor I abandon the case. 1 give up the suit.” (To Be Continued.)
