Those whose incomes are not over the line will not have to pay. If this bill Is defeated at the election this fall, another measure will be Init iated and , will be modeled along harsher lines." Governor Piej-ce compared busi ness with a' tree,' horticulture 'and agriculture being the roots; manu facturing .; the trunk; transporta tion the branches, and wholesalers and retailers the leaves.

ASKED ' :. . . ! : '.-' At the sight of Hugh Grant land's tall figure standing beside the car I broke intoi a little run, my hands stretched out to him. To me he represented my one chance of getting my baby boy back in my arms again, for I have infinite faith in his resources; and the sight of him roused my hope of my little lads recovery, a hope which had 'well nigh gone out In the terrible Tiouts of despair since the child had disappeared. ' There was infinite pity and tenderness in his eyes as he strode I forward," took my hands '' in his and held them firmly. But. char acteristically, he wasted no time in greetings or commiseration. "Get into the car please and sit down," he said, almost brusquely. "Tell me this thing from the. be ginning every minutest detail. It won't be too much for you " nV interrupted , himself anxiously. No" I hesitated, for the tell ing of the story meant revealing the fact that "Grace Draper was an Inmate of lour home,' and I had only 'a- too. vivid memory of, the pains this', man had taken o guard me from the girl.1 " ; "Oh, I know that , Grace Draper U here," he said a bit impatient ly. V'We'll not consider her for the present. Tell me, your stbry.'' f I obeyed him,1 relating every de tail of ' Junior's disappearance! He listened quietly, attentively, checking me only with one ques tion. , s t V "Miss Draper, then, was In your sight constantly from the moment tbe child ran, back to the studio until you both began to search for him?" I !Yes," I answered, startled fo the moment, thed realizing that nis intense prejufllcs against' the girl would no doubt lead him to suspect ' that she baaY a hand In any similar happening in my vi cinity. ; ' .,- ' j UAU righL go on". ' He did not speak again until 1 had finished, and he had sat for a long minute In deep reflection. Then he began a series of stac cato questions. J "Whose suggestion was it that Grace Draper take your place to cau your i boy when .you were com pelled to come In?" f'He's Not There." I thought for a moment: "Hers.- " ' I ' " S "You say you met her when yon rushed out of the house In response to, the call you fancied you heard. Was she where you supposed she was? " "No-o. She was to have stayed at the edge pf the woodland, but sne said she had heard me and rushed toward me." ; ' Then he shot a perfect fusillade of questions at mej all dealing with Grace Draper. His face grew sterner and sterner at my replies. and lightened only at the infor mation that Edith Fairfax was oc cupying an . adjoining room to hers at the Ticer. farmhouse. "CSester," he called, and the young man. who had been stand ing respectfully out of earshot he evidently was boyishly - Im pressed by Hugh Grantland's old military rank, as well as his per sonalitycame rapidly forward. -vvm you take a note to Miss Edith Fairfax at fhe .Ticer farm house?" He tore a page from his notebook as he spoke, and wrote rapidly, while Tom j Chester was expressing his willingness to do anything the major wished. "Mrs.' Graham will ero with von back to the farmhouse," Hugh Grantland said. "See her safely there, then T wish you to get Mr. Graham and his friend, Mr. Dur- kee, out of the vicinity on some pretext. I have Insured Miss- Draper being kept oat of tbe way in this note, and Mrs. Graham, do you keep Mrs. Durkee and Katie in the house. I want a free hand to begin at the first .place the baby disappeared Chat corncrlb studio. I. want to tear it down, if need be." . - - h ."Oh," I moaned. "You donltj think",. j ... o! No!", he almost shouted. 'He's not therev But I may find but some things I want to know by looking it over." I ' v "I will attend to everything you wish." I replied. . , ! "Chester,: come back for ; me when the coast la clear," he said. then alighted, from the car and lifted me down. . 1 ''Remember, keep up your courage," he said. Only One Thought, But this was an almost impos sible thing for me to do in the hours that followed, during which Hugh .Grantland secluded himself 1 the corncrlb studio, , and upon emerging,, covered, with dust, and as near excitement, as I, had ever seen him, drove madly oft with Tom Chester, vouchsafing only the hurried information to me that he could not tell anything yet. L.,,,,,.a,;,;:Vs . I saw nothfnar ttf either nf (bant for He. text, eight, hours ot dead- ly, anxious waiting, LA which '.were yet filled with hurry and bustle J For thfi actttlties: of the Legion j under. Tom Chester in bunting ror Junior had 'been "the. cause of at tracting the attention of the, city newspapers to the story, and the house all day was the centre ' to which" gravitated reporters ' and photographers, keen-eyed, alerti courteous young men, each with an air pf Indolent lelsureliness masking intense activity. Knowing that I could. have no better aid in the search for my baby than newspaper publicity, I saw them all, gave them photo graphs of Junior, and tried to do everything in" my power to ' help them. But the effort' to keep up exhausted me, : and when my fa ther came in response to a wire I had sent to Washington bead quarters I was in bed, with Leila and Mrs. wDurkee administering to a ; racking headache. I was able only to return my father's anxious kiss , of greeting, to note dimly the anguish which furrowed his face, to listen, almost unheed ing to his explanation' that ' he had not brought Allen Drake with mm nor toia mm or junior s dis appearance, because of the serious illness which had seized the bril liant, secret agent but a day be fore. . . ; .Theye was only one .thought running through my brain. What, if- anything, had Hrfgh Grantland discovered about Junior? " ' :' ' S - CHAPTER NO. 434 -WHAT MRS,. TICER SHOWED i - 'f ; : ' ' madge. . -.. . v : Whatever, if , anything, Hugh Grantland had discovered concern ing Junior in his search of the corncrib studio, he kept it to him self 'out of he way, I suspected deliberately, that .he might not have to answer my questions. ': Early in the morning following my ; father's arrival, ": young " Mr, Chester appeared again : with .' a note frome the army officer, whlph held no heading or salutation. "Must go away for day or two," It began. "Nothing to tell you yet, but remember courage. couragel .You have been so brave, be patient a . little while longer. Caution. No matter what devel opments, stick outwardly to your theory that the child wandered away, and is lost. You may trust Mr. Chester absolutely. Hurried ly, f -GRANTLAND." I read the note .two or three times, puzzling over it. If it meant anything at all, it . meant that , .Hugh", Grantland. had some dl8ti net clew as to Junior's fate. And he had'left me in uncertainty when he knew how vital to me was every trifle. ' A Resolve. 1 . had long suspected that he, like Allen .Drake, did not look with any degree of confidence on feminine mentality or Judgment in emergencies, and with 'a sudden access of hysterical anger, 11 crumped the note in my hand and flung it to the floor of the ver anda. And I acquit myself of any touch of personal vanity ! In the action or, the thought behind it. Fpr Hugh Grantland's opinion of me in this stressful hour I cared no whit ..But he thought of his possessing any scrap of Informa tion concerning my baby boy which he was not sharing with me lashed me to fury. ' " ' The knowledge that young Mr. Chester's eyes were upon me, no doubt In wide astonishment, brought me back to a realisation j that I must not justify by my be-, havior Hugh Grantland's rett cence. That the young- soldier j was In the confidence from which j I was barred I felt sure. iThat. he was generous to a fault, and eas ily led by his sympathies, 1 was also certain from his face In my days as a teacher, I was assured many times that I had an almost uncanny faculty of reading peo ple's characteristics from their physiognomies. - Now, with no trace of shame or self-condemnationindeed, I do not think I knew a really sane moment from the time of my child's disappear anceI resolved to learn what Tom Chester knew of Hugh Grant land's plans If I could compass it by any chicanery. What Has She Heard?". -i 'Please pardon me for this ex hibition," I said humbly, and I did not need, to feign the tears which came only too readily Into my eyes. . "But I . ami almost crazed for the want of any trace, no matter how slight, of my baby. X think from this note, MaJ Grant- land' must he - on tbe track of something. Yet he will not ten me. Oh! I cannot , bear ? it. I think I shall go madf. ! I had planned deliberately to make some apeal to Tom Chester, but I found. myself swept away by my real terror, forgetting fo note its possible effect upon him. 4 His answer, when It came was husky, and his jroice trembled. ''A "I know,' he said, pityingly, It must be , terrible, and I don't see for my, part" : H at what he saw or didn't see. I was not to know, for before he coujd , finish his , sentence, Jerry Ticer, . breathless,' from running. dashed up to the veranda. "Mis' Graham!

While he brought the car up I puzzled over his "offer to accom pany me, and there came to me the conviction that MaJ.
