"Mt Randall on the wibway this morning," announced Warren, as he
stirred hl :tf ter-d:nner no: "Oh. yo-,1 did:" H'dn -ard with -".cr lntc-rt. forhe a "Haa position yet '" "I believe he's trying to sell somrthinir or othf-r on commission. H uiin't communicative, rnd you ca.n"t J imp a fellovr v.hcn he's down and out. hut I know he hasn't any regular Job." "Didn't fay anything about Mr3. Randall and the children?" "Yes, they've suMot their apartment rurni.hol nii pon to board. He said they wer.Vt slvlnzt heir address, but he thought -Mrs. Randall would Ilk? to .-e you. You ought to i,-o don't you think so?'' "Oh, of course, if you think she really wants rne." "Hhe wouldn't have said no if she didn't. I started to tell him h.e could count on me for anything I cou'.d do, but he shied changed the subject. Jove it must po hard with a man of his pride to be up afcaim-t It like that." "J5ut. d-ar, don't you think ho'll fit pnmpthin? soon? Surely a man o hia ability " Ability Not Counted. "Now you've U-cn over all that before," interrupted W'arrr-n, irritably; but this time his irritation was not at Helen, but at the creneral injustice of , the business world to men of Randall's type. "I told you a man's ability didn't count when he .seeks a Job with uray hair and no capital. Osier has it about rit,rht a man over forty's out of the running." "You didn't t;ive mo their address," reminded Helen. " XV. Twenty-Second St.." read TTelen from the clip. "I wonder what kind of a place it is." "Some cheap boarding hous You'd better call tomorrow maybe you can cheer her up. As'k 'em here to dinner, if they'll come. I intended to ask R.mdall, but he was off before I Kot the chance." Helen had seen Mrs. Randall only once since her husband had lost the position he had held for over twenty ears with Crane & 1 la r k v r. They had not friven up their apartment then, and Mrs. Randall had cried that they could not Rive it up that they could not live cheaper anywhere than they were living there. Yet she had admitted helplessly that the restn was 51.200 a year, and that they had always lived up to every cent of his salary savins' nothing". And Helen had wondered pityingly she looked around the expensively furnished apartment, how lonK it would be before Mrs. Randall would have to realize that they could live cheaper. Evidently that realization had come very soon for already they had moved. The next afternoon Helen paused before a din fry brown-stone house on V. Twenty-Second st. It was only one of the many in that block. They had once been well-to-do homes, each with its individuality, but now there was the rtamp of the boarding and rented-reorn houre about them all. She went up the stone stoop to the shabby doorway and ran? the bell. There was no response and she was about to ring acrain, when a man ran up thes teps. feeling in his pocket for a ke. As he stooped over to unlock tbi door, Helen noticed his overcoat with its worn fur collar and his general seedy air of the lower class actor. He held the door open as though expecting her to enter. It was an awkward situation, for ho was plainly one of tho roomers. "Do you know if the Randalls have booms here?" faltered Helen. "Don't know anybody. Wait, I'll call Kusan." leaving the door open, be went to the top of tho basement stairs and shouted. 'VSusanl Ilel, Susan, somebody's up here!" Then he glanced over the letters on tb-j hall rack, selected one and hurried upstairs. A moment later a slatternly maid came up from the basement. "Who'd you want to see, ma'am?" r taring at Helen, who was still standing in the open door. "rM?. Randall." "Third Moor lack." briefly, as sho slammed the front door and shufiled down the back stairs.

more pronounced. Slowly Helen climhedvthe three Mights. There wero rubber treads over the worn stairway carpet, and hf-re and there, the white plaster ph-amed through the scarred wall paper.
Rreathles from the unaccustomed stairs, Helen knocked timidly at tho door of what she thought was the third floor back. It was Mrs. Randall who answered the knock, flushing" Iainfully as she recognized Helen. But after tho embarrassment of the first few moments Helen felt she was glad to sefi her. Shf hud been sewintr. and as ?oon as Ilfln was seated the took up her "work aain. Tfio Wort She Did. "I'm makrur these," she said simply, holding ur a dainty boudoir cap, "for tho Woman's Kxchanpe. Of course, they won't buy them, but they let mo put them there on sale." Then, as though lad of the chance to talk to some one of the hardships of the last few months, she told of irvng up their apartment. There waa no way of keeping- it unless they went into debt. "And at least." with a sort of fierce pride, "we don't owe a penny. We may have ben foolish and extra vagant In living- up to our Income, but we never lived beyond it. And so we choose this." vith a plance about the dingy, cheaply furnished room, "rather than g-o into debt now." "I'm sure you were riglit," murmured Helen. "This is much tho better way." "And we were fortunate In subletting the apartment furnished for $140. a monrh $40 more than our rentHere we pay only $8 a week for this and a tiny hall room for Frank; we're trying to keep him in school; Eleanor and Betty are with their gTandmother. and Betty are with their grandmother." "Then you go out for your meals?" asked Helen. "I get our breakfast here," nodding toward a percolator and a tin box on the table. "And we go to some little restaurant for dinner; we found one that's both clean and cheap." "Oh, I think you've been very brave. This is so much better than trying to keep up appearances by going into debt. And when Mr. Randall does get on his feet again you won t have anything hanging over you. "Yes, if he ever does," with a break in her voice. "Oh, I feel now that I can stand anything if only he doesn't get despondent. But the papers are full of the tragedies of middle-aged men who can't find employment. Did you read Just yesterday about that man, an expert bookkeeper I think he uas, who had lost his position and couldn't iret another because of his gray hair? He left a note saying he wouldn't be a burden on his relatives. I hid the paper, so Henry wouldn't see it." Helen's Admiration. "Oh. you mustn't let yourself think of such 'things," protested Helen. "I'm sure there're. a great many firms who would be glad to have a man of Mr. Randall's experience and character." Then she added, a little awkwardly, "And you mustn't shut yourself up here too close. We should so like to have you and Mr. Randall for dinner. Could you come some evening next week ?" "That's very slightly, 'but kind of you," Hushing I don't think either Henry or I could go anywhere just yet. "ijater, perhaps, when things are a little, more certain, we-'d love to come." When Helen rose to leave, eh glanced hesitatingly at the boudoir cap. She wanted to offer to buy it, but was afraid Mrs. Jbandall might resent anything that even bordered on charity. Perhaps it would be much jnore delicate to get one from the Woman's Exchange. As she went down the stairs, now so dark that she had to feel her way by the railing, her thoughts were full of Mrs. Randall and of ways she misht help her without hurting her pride. Hut somehow the problem of the Randalls' future did not seem so hopeless as it wiw two months ago, when she had left their luxurious apartment with iMrs. Randall's helples3 cry of "What shall we do? We can't live cheaper than we're living nof," ringing in her ears. Adversity seemed to have strengthened her, as adversity so of ten does. And Helen had a profound admiration for her determined effort to keep out of debt. When she thought of tho many families who under slmiliar circumstances go on living on their tradesmen find borrowing from their friends, the Randalls' radical methods of giving up everything until they coudld get another start seemed to Helen a very line and splendid thing. And she could not believe, that any further adversity would follow where such an overwhelming blow had been so bravely met. 10 HARUESTJBIG CROP Secy, of Labor Asks Commission For Trunk Lines to Run Excursions.

Members of International Association Do Not Look With Favor Upon Recent Activities of Sleuth.
GRAND RAProS, Mich.. June 16 Detective William J. Burns, head of tho Burns National Detective agency. Is In bad with the International Association of Chiefs of Police which opened a five days' convention here on Monday. At the opening business session Tuesday resolutions will bo introduced by Chief Michael Regan, vice president, of Buffalo, and F. J. Cassada of Elmira, N. Y asking that the detective be ousted from tho organization. Members of the association have not looked with fyor upon the activities of Burns for some time, but the part he played in the Leo Frank case recently when he attempted to clear tho Atlanta manufacturer from a charge of murder upon which he had J been convicted and sentenced to death, j has aroused police chiefs all over the United States and the 200 delegates in attendance at tho convention are united in the move to oust him. Do Not Want Him Longer. "Wo have been watching Burns work for some time," said ChieX Cas-sad-a Monday, "and we have about decided that we do not care to have him considered one of us any longer. His work in the Frank case is ncjt the only thing the association has against him. There are several Instances where ho acted in a manner which we consider unbecoming for a member of our association. There is not a police official in tho business who believes in trying his cases In the newspapers before the case is taken into court and from my point of view Burns has been violating the confidence of his clients to gain publicity for himself." It was also intimated by some of the chiefs that when the case is taken before the convention some of the real inner secrets of tho investigation of the McNamara case will be given publicity for the first time. Kver since the wholesale arrest of the dynamiters stories have been going around that Burns took more credit in the arrcsta than was due him, and some of the chiefs say they are now ready to talk. Jcnnsen Elected President. The business meeting of the National Bureau of Criminal Identification was held Monday. John T. Jennsen of Milwaukee, was elected president, Michael Regan of Buffalo, N. Y., vice president, and Major Sylvester of Washington, secretary and treasurer. Next in importance to the Burns question to bo considered Tuesday is the question of amalgamating the police chiefs organization with the special railroad agents and all police organizations, forming a national body with 50.000 members. According to Major Sylvester, the chiefs will only lend their moral support to the plan and will not enter In. "There is no reason why we should associate ourselves with the sheriffs and railroad agents," said Major .Sylvester. "Our work is entirely different. Although they have besieged us with invitations to go in and lead tho organization I am sure that we will decline." Supt, Carr of Grand Rapids, who haa been secretary of the chiefs for 20 years, announced positively today that he would not accept another term of office. Frank J. Cassada of Elmira, N. Y., is the strongest bidder for his place. t. n. ii. srKciAU All members of Beech Tree court No 211 are requested to meet at hall Tuesday evening, June lGth, 8 o'clock sharp.
