You ca hear it if yez listen when you be pass ing," said Mrs. Grady to little Mrs Flaherty, the carpenter's wife. The two women were residents Fi the same tenement house in the city It was not a squalid part, though thi congestion made it an unhealthy one It was clean enough, and Mrs. Fla herty's deft fingers kept the interlo: of her four rooms almost spotless But Michael had been out of work fo: six weeks, owing to the businesA de pression, and cleanliness was abou all that Nora Flaherty could manage She could not provide more food fo the four hungry little mouths. Day by day Michael tramped thi streets in search of work. And ever: evening the bread and milk somehov seemed to go less far. The childrei were growing thin. Bridget, the old est, was five, and the rest followed a regular gradations down to Phil, th baby of ten months. "If it wasn't for the children, Nora, Michael would say wistfully, "you an me could start out on the tramp an do chores in the country." That had always been their longiA -a country home. But it seeme more remote than ever, now that ther were six mouths to feed. Nora Fraherty listened as she stoo at the entrance to the tenement house Sure enough, she heard the pitiful cr of the child. She had seen him once a thin little boy of six or seven yearE The father was a Pole. He dran] away his money every Saturday nighi and returned home mad with liquoi Then he would beat the little boy, whi lay neglected all day In the darl - cellar-like place. She heard him cry, and the mothe instinct overflowed in her. Softly sh crept down to the basement. It wa quite dark, except for the faint Mit mination from a small, dirty windoi Sat Beside the Bed In Fear and Trerr bling. near the ceiling. She turned th handle. The door yielded. Upon th floor, crouched on a pile of rags, th - little boy lay, He was thin and ems - cated, and he stared at her in terrol - like a little wild animal. The good wonlan's indignatiol brought a storm of angry words ti her lips. The child, thinking they wer meant for him, began to whimpe again. Nora hurried upstairs an' stood looking at the remnants of th loaf of bread and the thin milk in th .pitcher. There was just enough fo that night. Perhaps it would go roun< -if one of them did not eat. Ana Nora's appetite was not very large jus now. With a half-guilty manner she cut: thick slice of bread, poured out a cui ful of milk, and carried the food dow: to the boy in the basement. When sh saw him fall upon the food ravenousi; the tears streamed down her cheek! *' That afternoon Mrs. Grady came t the door of her tenement. "It's all right, Mrs. Flaherty," sh said. "Somebody's written to the Chi siren's society, and they're going t take the child away. The man's bee: put in prison for stabbing another c thim Poles whin he was drunk. Th society will be here in the evening. Nora's heart misgave her. Some - how the thought of the little, darl - eyed boy growing up inside th shadow of the society's big, barracli j.likte building was dreadful to conten rplate. She thought of her own babie! Land she sat in her chair, a picture c helpless woe. Suddenly a burning thought came t Lher that made her sit up and star ~wildly about her. Why not? Wh: rnot? In another minute she had crep ~'down to~the basement again to wher the boy was lying. At the sight c 'her he sat up and stretched out hi thin little hands. rShe lifted him in her arms and his him beneath her shawl. How pitifull; ~light he was! He did not understani her words of motherly kindness, bu "" the tone is the same in all language! He snuggled down in her arms, and: Icouple of minutes later he was restini upon her own bed, while the four chi dren stood around, staring at the littli stranger. Ten minutes later, when the boy wa asleep, Mrs. Grady came to the door Send you an NU "Mrs. Flaherty!" she gasped, "the man has come from the society, and what do yez think? One of that PO lack's friends has been and taken the child away." Nora Flaherty looked at her friend with a stare of misunderstandlhg. "The man from the society is ask ing if anybody's seen the child," con tinued Mrs. Grady. "Yez didn't hap , pen to see him, did yez, Nora?" L "No," answered Nora Flaherty in - a mechanical manner. "No, I didn't." But after her visitor had gone away she sat beside the bed in fear and L trembling every time a footstep sounded outside the door. And there was another reason for her dread. It had been an impulse to take the lad, an impulse which she had not followed r to its logical conclusion. Perhaps she had merely wanted to give him some r bread and milk and to show him a - little of that mother love that he had t never known. But now-what would . Michael say? r He loved his children and he had always been kind to her, but-well, another mouth to feed meant a dread- I r ful tax iipon their scanty means. And r he was out of work, might be for I weeks to come, although he had re - ceived a half-promise of something in t the near future. She sat there in an agony of sus- 4 pense until she heard her husband's tread along the hall outside. In an j other moment he was In the little ten I ement, and, as she went out to meet him, he clasped her in his arms and kissed her. She looked at him with j pride. What a good husband she had! a He never drank or beat her, even if he was a little petulant at times. And 4 j he had been so patient all through that dreary time. ' "Nora, girl," he exclaimed, "I've got . a job and I go to work the day after tomorrow. And it's in the country, E lass! It's in the new Richardson , plant, twenty miles away-a steady job, my girl, and all expenses paid. y And we move tomorrow!" K He saw a strange look on her face. She was trembling. r "What is It, Nora?" he cried, con a scious of some dreadful fear. s She told him. And then she led him into the bedrooni and showed him r the pinched little figure upon the bed, and the dawning smile upon the child ish mouth. She turned down the cov erlet and showed him the weals upon the little body. "Michael, my man," she whispered, "there's only four of our own, though, praise God, there'll be more coming to us later. Can't we feed five, Michael?" The man looked in a dazed way into his wife's face. "Good Lord, Nora!" he ejaculated. "Is it keep the little nipper yez mean?" "Michael! Think of one of our own babies growing up in the society's home-in the city, without ever sight of a tree or a flower. .Let me keep him, Michael! I've asked little of yez before, but now I want him-Oh, I want him so rmuch!" Michael bent over the bed and took the little hand in his. I"Well, girl, I guess one more won't make much difference," he said. "But 'the last one-except our own, I mean." (Copyright, 1914, by W. G. Chapman.) IANY FALL FOR SWINDLE New "Card Conspiracy" Game Is . Really ingenious and Its Victims Have Been Numerous. aA new "card conspiracy" is being a worked by clever swindlers. People a who never have been swindled before .are "fallingj for" this newest of card ,tricks. It is worked with an ordinary deck of playing cards, the telephone 1 and a good memory. y This is the way the game Is worked: a In a restaurant or cafe where a tele r Iphone is handy the swindler gets into I conversation with a likely victim. He a cleverly leads the conversation to a mind reading, second sight and telep r Iathy. Then after the victim has be I come Interested the swindler tells I about his wonderful friend. t I"Why, I have a friend," he says, I"who can tell over the telephone what a card out of a whole deck has been - chosen by the person speaking. He i can do this without a hint from me, a even if the person is an absolute i stranger to him." .The victim doesn't believe this. A bet Is made. Then a card is chosen by the victim. He shows it to the a swindler. He does not leave his seat. - He does not telephone. All he says Is, S"Go to the phone, ask for No. --, 2and ask him what card you have f Ichosen." a The victim goes to the phone. He "gets the number and the party asked a for. Then promptly he receives over -the phone the correct name of the a card he has selected, thus losing the -bet. -The secret Is simple. The swindler , has memorized the thirteen cards of f one suit against thirteen common names. If clubs have been chosen, a the ace will be Mr. Brown, the deuce a Mr. Smith, the treyMr. Jones, etc. If 7a diamond Is selected, a Christian t. name is added. Other Christian names a are added for othe'r suits. f The confederate at the other end of a the wire has a list of the names. A ring at the phone. A man asks -for i Fred Woods. The confederate looks y at the list and knows that the victim i has picked out the king of clubs. t The victim seldom realizes he has been swindled.

Speculation as to the effect of the war upon the European monarchies is most fascinating, especially to Americans who have an ingrained suspicion of every form of government save their own. There are many who maintain that it is a war of dynasties, entered upon for territorial greed or because of h animosities of the reigning houses. The Hapsburgs are fighting to extend their boun daries toward the Aegean, the Hohenzollerns have dreams of world dominion and the great er glory of their name; the Romonoffs are seeking to main tain their hold upon the loyalty of the Slavs outside of their em pire and to bind them more at closely to St. Petersburg so that It the ultimate extension of the Russian frontier to the Medi terranean may be facilitated. There is no doubt that these n. are among the potential rea: son's for the conflict. But theiy er are not all the reasons. The " German army is merely the kaiser's fighting machine. It is Germany in arms. When bi 5,000,000 men respond to thecall to the colors, or stand to respond e to carrrv out the plan of the kaiser's, it is pretty safe to re assume that the cause of the n- kaiser is the cause of German y, and that national as well as dynastic reasons lie behind the great enterprise. The same rea ur soning will apply to Russia and to Austria only to a lesser degree. Germany and Austria are in alliance because of their com st mon interests. They both seek n- an outlet to the east to the Ae gean and to the markets of east. The dynastic policies are supported by the commercial in e terests of the two empires, and I in a large sense the Hohenzol lerns and the Hapsburgs are the spokesmen for and leaders Se of their people and leading in the direction in which they would Lfo. There is no dynasty in Frar.ce a to be glorified, but the French people have been arming for - forty-four years for this great conflict. The Frenchman who r, took their hoardingsfrom the ir stockings to help tWeir overn ment pay the indemnity to Germany in 1870 have been waiting foi the opportunity tn get it back again, and their children have inherited the same relentless purpose. They have watched and waited near ly half a century for this one great, over-whelming' all-ab sorbing oppoitunity of "rev anche!" Despite the fact that the am bitions of the people and the dynasties are in accord, the effects of the war upon mon archical inst itutions will l e momentous. The spirits of democracy is' abroad. It has practically abolished the British house of lords. It has forced the est.b'ishment of a parliament in Russia. It is aY so active andl alert in Germany 4- that the Social Democracy is Sparty is the largest and most at powerful political organi; ation tin the i mpire. In France it overturned t he monarch y ncarly half a century ago, and is now so firmly esta blished that only the wildest dreamers ever im agine that republican institution can be replaced. It is regnant in Portugal and nearly so in e Spain. A nation in arms, as in Germany now is, will not long be cohtent to remain a nation rk without a ministry responsible dto its parliament. The demo acratization of German institu Stions is inevitable after the war, whatever the result. The peo ple, even in Russia are no longer driven serfs. They think they ar reason and a demonstration of re the power of 5,000,000 men on the battlefield will not be lost on y the patriots who wish also to demonstrate the power of the hsame number of millions in de. rcidmng at first hand the causes for which they will take up arms. Whether the kings and an the emperors remain on their thrones matters little. Great ho Britain, though ii retains the "I fiction of a monarch, is esdemo it cratic as the United States~,and d its parliament responds with greater precision to popular sentiment than the American .congress. -The war means the end of autocracy whether the kings remain or not.-Philad6l pphi:. Ledger. The Test of Love. n.Of course sincerity and purity of affection has not one but many tests. If you love you must know where the er- other doubts and persist where the world deprecates. Love is because it is. For this reason one stands with ea it against the world and does not wield the weapons of the world ''against it. .Surely its assurance in the face of the storm is one of its sweetest tests. No Chance. "There's always a moment after din ner when the prettiest woman in the world has no chance against the at tractions of a good cigar.-From "The Marriage of Kitty." Moving Upward.
