It will be interesting to com- pare this report with the result of the examination of the wreek, hull soon to be raised. Jr. Robert Meighen, ofe the Lake of the Woods Milling Co., says he is oppos- ed to the merger of milling companies lately talked of. He is also strongly op- posed to the great bakery eemliine or to any policy "to control the poor man's bread." He characterises many mergers as schemes "to pay dividends on eapital that has no existence, eeeept on paper." Mr. :deighen is probably sound on this question. Rev. Joseph Vance, Chicago, recently alleged that Mayor Harrison, of thite city, had "gone into office with an un- derstanding with the 'lower world' that It was to have four fat years." When the Mayor heard of the "moral reform- er's" assertion, he said: "The mem -who makes sub a statement. as is credited to the Rev. Joseph A. Vance utters an absolute falsehood. Were it not for the servicelin which he is engaged, I would tree stronger language." 4 - George E Howard, Professor of So- ciology in the University of Nebraska, wants "a college of domestic relations" which will "give sound training in the problems of sex, parentage and the houSehold."

The sight of that other girl, so .dif- ferent from her stela had brougeet a strange sharp pang, but that was lost in the pain she endured when she thought that Stuart had agreed with the cruel remark, and that his friendahip was gone forever. She wended her way along dm paddock, and was turning through the gate to enter the gardenetee path again, when a hand was stretched out from beside her, took the basket from her, and, putting a finer under her ehip, raised leer head from its drooping position. • "Well?? Bahl Stuart quietly. "Give me my basket, please, aer, Stu- art?' Margery murmured hurrieely, a erimson wave of color dyeing her cheeks. "What for?" asked the young man "I must get home.

"Please give it to me, Mr. Stuart." "Then r must go without it!" she ex- claimed; and, suiting the action to the word, she began' to move down the path. Stuart followed at once, and put a de- taining hand on her arm. "Here is your basket,. Margery. I was only teaeing you. What a time you have been! I have been waiting there for you foe the last five minutes." Margery's heart grew lighter again. "You might have been better employ-. ed," she returned, with the quaint sharp- ness Stuart always admired. "But, if you have time to waste, 1 Imam not: Listen!

He pushed open the gate and rnotioued her into the paddock again. "Now," he continued, ainging the basket on his arm and turning beside her across the field, 'why are yott cross with me, Miss Mar- gery?" "I ron not -crose with yon," Margery' answered hurriedly.
