WIEN TO BE IN FRONT RANIS AT NEXT CONVENTION Feminine Politicians Will Provide New Sensation at Democratic Meet. By DOROTHY SHVMATE (United Press Convention Correspondent. NEW YORK, June 17.—Political wiseacres at the Democratic national convention may wipe that bored “I’ve been coming since the flood” expression off their brows and prepare for a brand new sensation. For they VFill see women politicians at this convention, and there is no hokum about that. For the first time in history they will see women schooled in the gentle art of politics working right up in the front ranks on an equal footing with men. Work Hand-in-Hand Unlike the Republican women who ■were given fifty-fifty representation with the men in their party at the G. O. P. convention in Cleveland, the Democratic women have shared equal honors for four years. They know what it is to work hand-in-hand with yie political powers and now they’re prepared to “show off." In preparation for their offensive, armies of feminine politicians have already intrenched themselves in the various camps in New York and are Starting to maneuver. Silently but surely they’re getting the numbers of each delegate information is being card indexed. Caviar and Tea Meanwhile, as surely as men still stick to their good cigars, women are only women. They're not going to be done out of their social side. For caviar sandwiches and 5 o’clock tea may be just as effective on a party machine as cigar smoke, they contend. To this end the most elaborate social week New York has seen has been planned. Fine old Fifth Ave. homes of New York’s most exclusive 40 will be the scenes of every variety of political function from a waffle breakfast to a formal at-home. Dances, garden parties, luncheons, buffet suppers, dinners and outings are all on the program and all of course for the ‘sake of the party.

BEGIN HERE TODAY Peter Newhall. Augusta (la., flees to Alaska, after being told by Ivan Ishnun. Russian violinist, lie had drowned Paul Sarichef. Ishmin a set" retary. Ishnun and Peters wife. Dorothy. had urged him to flee to South America. He joins Big Chris Larson in response to a distress signal at sea. giving Larson his sea jacket. Their launch hits rocks. Larson's body is buried as Newhall’s. Peter, rescued, finds injuries have completely changed his appearance. Dorothy and Ishmin go to Alaska to return Peter’s body. They do not recognize Peter in their head guide. A storm strands them at the grave. ■'Change name,” a message from a seance. Dorothy believes to be from Peter telling her to accept Ishmin's marriage proposal. Ishmin goes for supplies. Peter falls in a gully on a hunting trip. Dorothy goes to his aid. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY HE was too terrified, now, for coherent thought: yet a dim l— glimmer of a startling truth came to her as she groped for the man’s bleeding hand. To her he was not merely a guide, a faithfyl servant. Her prayer for his life was heartfelt; indeed, it seemed 'the first theme of her own life. He was not just a fellow mortal who had given her service; he was her companion, her stionghold and shelter; but this was only the beginning. In that instant of stress the voice of her heart spoke clearly above the confusing babble of lesser tongues, and some deep tendei^iess —almost forgotten—was thrilled into life. This rough man of the opens made an appeal to her that could no longer be denied, that reached to the secret places of her being. The time might come when false pride would manifest itself again, and she would be ashamed of this heart secret that the fateful moment had revealed; but she yielded to it freely now. She took his rough hands and wounds, then she kissed his lips to see if they were still warm with life. Then she pressed his battered head against her breast and rocked him as a child rocks its doll. She kissed the homely, bleeding face, then tried to coax him back to consciousness .... They must not linger here, in the creek bed and under the cold roof of snow. He was not dead; she was sure of that now. As she mounted nearer the head springs of the little stream that flowed at her feet, the gully Itself

had decreased in depth, and Pete had fallen scarcely more than thirty feet. The fall, too, might have been somewhat broken by striking first the almost sheer wall of the gully just above the water. Yet he might 'easily be mortally injured. His present deep sleep might usher him, without waking, straight into death. She began quietly to bathe his wounds. The cold water was an effective stimulant, and soon he stirred and opened his eyes. It moved her to the depths to see a little faint echo of his friendly smile come to his lips. It was almost Imperceptible, yet its meaning was plain; that he would stand between her and disaster, that she need not fear. "Don’t trouble about me,” he told her faintly. The drops of water on his bleeding face were not wholly from the cold stream. Her tears lay there, t<#o. “Don’t try to talk,” she cautioned him. He closed his eyes, rested, and full consciousness came back to him. “I don’t believe I’m badly hurt, Mrs. Newhall —just shaken up and scratched. Maybe I can get up.” “You mustn’t try it. I’ll run back for help—” “I’m atraid It wouldn’t be best to wait. . . . It’s pretty cold down here —almost freezing. The best plan is to try to reach the camp.” He spoke softly, with evident difficulty; yet she was convinced at last he was not mortally injured. She realized that life itself, however, might depend on getting him at once into camp. At least he must not be left under the snowbank to the mercy of the cold. *fehe took his hand and he trieyl to get to his feet. Evidently the entire mechanism of his central nervous system had suffered from the shock of the fall, and at first his muscles refused to respond to the commands of his brain. It was only with the girl’s help that he was able to get to his knees. Very slowly, unsteadily, pulling with his own free hand on the overhanging roots of the gulch from which the soil had been carried by his sliding body, and leaning on Dorothy, he managed to stand erect.
He paused for breath and they met each other’s eyes. The fact that Pete had not been mortally Injured did not mean that he was safe. He could not walk unaided over the hills and across the barrens with such strength as he now had. He could not wait for help to come from the ♦amp; hours would pass before the natives returned from their hunting, and hours more would be required to bring them here, even if Dorothy could find the way alone. Safety depended upon the fighting spirit, the courage and fortitude, of one person. SHE TRIED TO COAX HIM BACK TO CONSCIOUSNESS. That one person was Dorothy. If she did not get him to camp and shelter, it might easily mean that cold and exposure w’ould put out the spark of his life before the morning. There was no further time for terror and vain tears. For one of the in her life she had work to do. Encircling him with her arm and sustaining him against her shoulder she started away with him down the creek and out of the shadow of the snowbank. He was unsteady, faltering, and at first they could go only at a snail’s pace. All the time she encouraged him with her words and her voice, and most of all by the pressure of' her hand. And soon they were from under the snow roof and were seeking a path up the steep wall of the gully. Without a word from Pete, she continued on down the ravine until she found an old game trail that permitted fairly easy egress. This had been part of the guide’s own teaching in their many excursions into the wild. The narrow, brown trailing path up the hillside was quite

steep, but at least it was a way through the brush and offered them the greatest margin of safety. Slowly laboriously, resting every few paces, they reached the crest. The fight was not only to surmount the grade. She also had to guard against a lapse into unconsciousness on the part of the injured man. the results of which would have been to throw all of his dead weight against her and hurl them both down the steep grade in a perilous fall. Pete gave his own strength of will to this battle; and he was breathless amt fainting when he relaxed on the crest of the gully. "It’s not so cold up here,” the man told her, when he had rested. “There’s no use of you breaking your heart open trying to half-carry me. I think you can leave me here and send the natives to bring me in.” Dorothy glanced at the white sky and heeded the threat of winter in the wind. “We’ll go on,” she said. They went on, and that first, long, nigh-insuperable mile proved definitely the quality of ¥>orothy’s basic metal. She found that she not only had spirit to endure, but that her physical strength itself was greater than she had ever dared dream. An unconquerable spirit moved in her body—its mystic origin she did not yet know of attempt to trace —and she would have got the injured man to shelter if she had had to carry him on her back. This was spared her, however, because after the first mile Pete slowly but steadily began to rally. Ever his heart beat with greater power; the vital energy flowed through the floodgates of his nerves in an even greater stream. He carried more of his own weight, depending less on the strength of his companion. When vivid consciousness swept back to him and he saw the girl’s white, drawn face, he took her arm from his and tried to go on unaided: but she would not hear of this. She drew’ his arm through hers again with a.strange, tender urgency; and she would not let it go. “But I’m all right now,” he objected. She studied his pale face and somber eyes. “Let'me help you a while longer, Pete,” she told him. Down the steep grades, through the brush thickets, across streams and over hills she led him, sustaining him with the touch of her hand, leading him, cheering him with her voice and her smile. At last she laid him on his cot. She built up the fire, with fast, eager motions, and heated a pot of water. Then sitting beside him, she bathed his wounds. She did not

know why he quivered at the touch of her warm, caressing fingers, or whence came the sea of tenderness that flowed through her finger tips upon him. The moment, to Pete, seemed actually to redeem and brighten some of the darn, r.ollows in the trail of his life. Dorothy helped him off with his wet boots, and still postponing the dread moment of self-analysis, tucked his blankets about him. Then she built up the fire and prepared a warm nourishing soup which she fed him, spoonful at a time. She did not remember that she was dead tired herself, that she was accustomed to receiving, rather than giving service; and she let herself forget, for the moment, that this man was of a plane and sphere far below hers. Unaware of her own aching muscles she worked cheerfully about the camp, tending to Pete’s every comfort, warming his great, cold hands between hers, even cutting

I had been taking everything and getting nowhere, but my very first bottle of Tanlac had me well on the road to good health. “Two years of stomach and intestinal troubles had me so weak and exhausted that I could hardly move about. In fact, I was all out of fix, suffering day and night, and felt tha I was about done for. “Tanlac arrested my troubles, halted my downward course and then my energy \ and strength returned like a tidal wave, so to speak.
