A suuBre yellow ticket bore
tho word "Discharged.
It was Mary Carroll's permit to
leave the hospital.
"A lot of Rood It will do me.'
she mused bitterly. "I've no place
to go. And no money."
Two pound notes' and a aingle
sixpence in Anna Winters' pocket
book was her entire capital.
"About $t0 III American money,"
she thought.
She had resolved to begin life
anew under the severe handicap
of an altered uppeai'Huce ami a
muffled, halting speech. And how
she would begin her strange neiv
existence as Anna Winters, a for
mer English governess, she had not
the slightest Idea In the world.
"You're looking better already."
the busy floor nurse said briskly,
".lust. Uio thought or lining released

"Thanks." Mary murmured, but

"You'll find this dress very serv

Mary drew bark. She who bad
been a fashion stylist she who
had worn only the most expensive
elolhos clad in castorfs.
Then, everything thut had Imp

lessly she dunned tho coarse gar

on approvingly. "The very thing."
Fho said animatedly. "You'll do

Mary started to laugh at the

"Oh. but you are too good. I
couldn't accept."
"But they're no uso lo me. The
lease is taken until spring and
they're already paid up. You could
use them, at least until you've
found a job."
Mary tried hard to keep tho
teal's from falling.
"You mustn't think that I'd
bother you," he spoke eugerly. "1
never uo there at ail. So you
might iiH.well be using them.
Here's the key."
From his pocket he produced a
large, old-lashiiilied brass key.
"A key like this means busi
ness." be tried to speak lightly.
"You English don't fool , with
flimsy patent locks."
"We English?'' Mary started to
say. Bui she remembered In lime
thai she was Anna Winters und
English, as far as Dr. Lenox knew.
She was grateful that he seemed
not to hole the Interrogation In
her voice.
"And here's the address, all
written out." He bunded her a slip
of paper designating au address in
Soho. "Mrs. Simmons, my land
lady will lake good care or you.
She'll even char for you if you
like." '
Without walling for Mury to re
fuse be walked away.
. She stood irresolutely twirling
tho key In her hand. Should she
go there? Should ho tuke ad
vantage of the doctor's kind offer
to use the rooms he no longer re
quired? She wondered.

By Nazis, Opinion
BERN, Switzerland. May 13
(AP) A "nerve gas" which pene
trates ordinary gas masks and
renders Its victims helpless and
unable to coordinate their muscles
may he the "surprise weapon''
which enabled the Germans to cap
ture Fort Eben Emuel und thus
drive an opening wedge Into the
HelKinn defense lines.
That belief was expressed today
bv ncutrul mllltury attaches in
Switzerland, through whose humij
1 passes a great deal of the war's
I military information.
I They suld a gas of this type had
been developed In Germany ami
studied in other countries In re.
cent months, and that soldiers ln
haling it would lie overcome by las.
situile and would stagger and fall.
(Hownrd Blakeslee, Associated
J Press science editor, reports that
Ihe American Chemical society at
'a meeting two years ago suggested
thai liquid acetyl choline. If It came
,ln contact with a wound or break
in the skin, would make a soldier
unconscious fur as long as an
hour.)
Tho military exports explained '
that the gas, said to leave no ill
after-erfects, to be almost impos
sible to detect but to smell faintly
like geraniums, would be effective)
against the Belgian - garrison at
Fort Eben Emael because they
wero eouipped only Willi standard
army niter masks.
I They added that such n gas un-
idoiibtedly would be more el'I'ective .
In this typo rort than In the belter-
I ventilated fortifications, such as
those In Ihe French Muglnot line.
1 They reported that allied ami
Belgian authorities were studying
gas masks carried by German sol
diers who weje taken prisoners.
PIONEER PERIOD BRIDGES
FOOTBALLS OF POLITICS
Hilllor News-Review: I fiave
been asked by a number of per
sons to write some of my early
recollections of outstanding events,
so I will slart by telling that I
well remember when there was a
bridge over only one branch of the
t.'iniiriua river. That was the Yo
cum spun north of Cunyonvllle;
and how tho bridge problem was
used as u political football far
ninny yours.
All crossings not fordablo at low
water were equipped with ferry
boats and some nf, them wcvf v
mc.ney-niaklng concerns.
The ferry at Winchester, thoiuii
on u military road, because of Hit
LETTERS
to flic Editor
pollllcal pull, survived many years ;
past. Its time. And every time I
cross the Winchester bridge now.
inlays I think what u lime tliey
would have now handling the traf
fic. Then, when people began lo gel ll
brKigc-iuillded, bow the delegates w
from the various precincts would
come to the conventions with rese
lutions demanding that li bridge be '
built at a given point and endors
ing candidates lavoruhle to same.
Everything wus done, open anil
above board, then bridges began
In be built thut resutled in the
lino net work or spans we now en
joy. That was before wo had tho
cumbersome indirect primary law-,
as each precinct, sent its quoin ol
de legates to tho couvenl Ions, they
lo select the candidates tor the va
rious oirices, county, state and na
tion; and- I know that wa the
most reprosontutlvo form of gov
ernment, for the people, of the
people und by the people, as ex
tressed by bur martyred presi
dent, Lincoln.
