BEGIN HERE TODAY Clare Jeweit. in love with the Reverend Daniel Gilchrist, marries Jerry Goodkind for hia money. Daniel is dismissed from th’ fashionable Church of dhe Nativity in New York because of his radical sermons Gilchrist is sent to tbs coal mines by Goodkind senior and wires that a big- strike is settled. A delegation of strikers--'omes north to interview the president and directors They are received in Jerry’s home. An agreement which Gilchrist had made tentatively with the miners is shown to Goodkind. Daniel calls to see Jerry's father. Jerry meets him aud forbids him to speak to Clare. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY Benfield, sensing his perturbation, came alongside him and peered over his shoulder. Gilchrist stood patiently, but a look of hardness was coming into his eyes that usually were all gentleness. “What's what?" demanded Benfield. Goodkind read from the sheet. “ ’Hereby agreed—the men are to be epresented on the board of directors— ’ ” “Nor* came from the none-too-sur-prised Benfield. “Yes—and look here.” Goodkind read aloud again. ‘‘All disputes—referred—to a committee of arbitration —’ ” “The man’s gone crazy,” stormed benfield. Gilchrist took a step toward them ■nd lifted a hand. “When you’re through I —” he started. Goodkind was reading again. “ 'One-half of all profits, over and above a fair dividend, to be divided pro rata, according to wage and length of service.'" He looked up. “Why—” he started, then seemed to choke. “What Is this?” he demanded.

“I'M KEEPING MY SOUL!” “Jerry told you what It Is," stormed Benfield. “It’s surrender. ' Daniel cut in now. in voice as loud -<s their s. “No! NO!” he protested. "It’s Justice.” * '■! s nothing." returned Goodkind angrily. "It’s a scrap of paper until I lap Say “Bayer”-Genuine!

SAYS KIDNEYS CLOG AND NEED FLUSHING When your kidneys hurt and your l>ack feels sore, don't get scared and to load your stomach with a Sot of drugs that excite -the kidneys Hnd irritate the entire urinary tract. Bleep your kidneys clean like you keep Bour bowels clean, by flushing them F with a mild, harmless salts which helps remove the body’s urinous waste and stimulate them to their normal activity. The function of the kidneys is to biter tr s blood. In twenty-four hours they strain from it 500 grains of acid and waste, so we can readily understand the vital importance of keeping the kidneys active. Drink lots of good water—you can’t drink too much; also get from any pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts. Take a teaspoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for years to help clean and stimulate clogged kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in the system so they are no longer a source of irritation, thus often relieving bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent hthla-water drink which every one should take now and then to help keep their kidneys clean and active. Try this: also keep up the water drinking, and no doubt you will wonder what became of your kidney trouble and backache. By all means have physician examine your Iddneju at least twice a year,—Advertisement.

sign it, and I wouldn’t sign it if I had to shut up every mine in West Virginia. Why should I? We’ve got ’em licked.** “If you’ll only let me explain,” said Daniel, softening. “Explain what?” roared Goodkind. “They’re licked. They sent a delegation up here and we’ve won over the delegation.” Gilchrist's abundance of patience was ebbing. The hardness that had come to his thin, earnest face was not the hardness of wrath or malice. Rather It was the uncompromising flame of conviction. “You mean yoli've bought the delegation.” he said, hotly. “Who said so?” asked Goodkind. with a curious inflection. “Jerry—not ten minutes ago,” answered Daniel. “Stedtman’s a- N company man. Hennig’s for sale. Buy h.m, ’ he stormed, ‘‘and I’ll go back and tell them he’s bought—and prove it.” “You’re working for us” put in Benfield. * “I’m working for—” Daniel's voice softened. Good kind’s shrewdness ed his anger f# a moment. He saw danger in G.lclirist's firmness and earnestness. “Wait a minute, Benfield,” he said, waving a hand at his associate, "We’ve all lost our heads.” H.s tone was calmer. “Daniel and I have just been over all this and he has admitted I was right." Daniel looked at him amusedly. IJakirht as far as you went,” he said forceßilly, “but you only went part way. You have a right to a profit on your ideas, and your investment and the labor you put back of it v The public has a right to coal and transportation, and all it needs and pays for.” He paused a moment and lifted a finger toward the two. “But above everything else,” he went on. “the workman who works honestly has a right to someth.ng more than the barest kind of a bare living, and it can all be done if you don't sink everybody's rights to accumulate a fortune you don’t need and can’t see. All the argument on earth can't make you all right so long as there’s a Umanski in the world.” "If these people succeed there's no limit to what they'll do,” argued Goodkind. “If they fail, three's no limit to what they'll do.” returned Gilchrist. “There's no good transferring control from the intelligent few to the ignorant mob.” Goodkind has lost his tone of ire. He was talking to convince—talking In that suave, cool manner he had used on innumerable occasions in swinging a board of directors to his support. It was not so successful with Gilchrist. "There's no good in anything so long as we fight each other like beasts, instead of helping each other like brothers,” he answered. He was calm, too, and cool, but glowingly earnest. “There’s no hope anywhere except in the great teacher, and in the understanding that what He taught was not only good morals, but good sense and good business.” Goodkind was a good listener. He was trying to win Daniel by apparent sincere consideration of his scheme of things—a consideration that would make more convincing his ultimate rejection. He saw that stirring this man would serve no purpose. The great barrier he had to overcome was his indomitable honesty and sincerity. It was no time to goad these qualities. Hot talk would not rout them. Fast talk might. But Charlie Benfield was neither a diplomat nor a tactician. “Highfalutin’ nonsense!” he flung at Daniel philosophy. The remark swept away the careful approach Goodkind had sought to build. He scowled at his colleague, then, seeing there was to be no cooperation from this quarter in a program of clear-headed appeal, he abandoned his tack and aligned himself with the Intolerant, restive Benfield. “What?” asked Daniel. In all inno-

cence. “Millions!” exploded Goodkind, with a gesture that took In all the woiftf and indicated that the fate of civilization was a tstake, as well. “Oh, is that all?” There wasn’t the trace of a smile on Gilchrist's thin, drawn, whi{e face. “All?" stormed Benfield. Somehow he felt this “upstart” was trying to make fun of him. With the sensitiveness of the inferior he was more infuriated at this than he would have been had Gilchrist struck him. Again, too. Daniel’s tranquillity roused In him an anger that he could not explain. Daniel took the cigar from his moutht bung it aloft, then cast it aside. “Am I costing you one cigar?” he asked quietly. “Am I costing you one blanket frpm your warm beds, or one stick of furniture from your comfortable homes?" He looked about the room, with its priceless tapestries and rare furnishings. “Am I costing you anything else you’ll ever miss? I’m taking nothing from you and I’m giving thousands of men like you a chance to live.” “You're costing yourself your last chance of success!" There jyas a tone of threat in Goodkind’s remark. Daniel looked at him -with eyes that held both pity and scorn. “I don’t want your kind of success,” he shouted. "I’m through. He swung his arms in a gesture of resignation. “I give you back your job as I gave you back your church and—” This time it was he who threatened, but in a different tone “I give you twenty-four hours to sign that agreement.” Goodkind narrowed his eyes and glared at him. “If I do, you’re finished,” he shot Daniel was calm again now. There was a trace of a smile about his eyes. "I am when you’ve signed,” he said quietly. He had picked up his hat and was moving toward the door. Goodkind took a step forward. "If you walk out that door, you’re throwing away the chance of your life!” “I’m keeping my soul!” Gilchrist threw open the door and stood there, his figure framed by the arch againsrt the b’Jck background of the dark hallos*. “Yo'Vjudast” snorted Benfield.

"You damned fool!" muttered Goodkind. “Good night,” said Gilchrist. CHATTER XV. ** “Overcoat Hall” There was an air of patriarchal dignity about “Overcoat Hall.” It looked one of New York's old down-town streets in the face with something akin to pride, despite the fact that it’s red-brick front w r as dulled by defacing dust and its low stdbp shambled a bit under the burden of age N Years ago it had been a “mansion,” prided, almost petted. But when New York crept uptown it had been tor cumbersome to carry along. And now it was “Overcoat Hall,” sur rounded by new and noisy human neighbors who knew nothing of Its tradition. There was something of the same mien in the man.who stood before it tnis Christmas eVe, looking at its lighted window's rather doubtfully. His indecision vanished as a cold wind caught him knd set him quivering unpleasantly. With a careless gesture cf resolve he strode in. The room he found was warm. It seemed comfortable enough, too. He surveved it skeptically At one i-nl wu a platform, with a .hair and a tah’o.
