It appears that a | partner of Ethan Ffrench wanting an ex- I pert to race with the “ M ercury" at auto events, has engaged Destrange, and at the Ffrench factory Emily encounters the young man. They refer pleasantly to their meeting when Dick comes along and recognises the young racer. Dick likes the way Lestrange ignores their first meeting when he appeared to a disad vantage.

H a n e ve r m eant TO BE TESTED Suit la Begun A gainst Breakfast Food Concern. sold to retailer and consumer, prevent ing competition which would reduce the price to the public and creating a monopoly by concentrating the entire interstate traffic in this commodity in the hands o f jobbers and retailers who abide by price agreements exacted by the defendants. It is alleged that the defendants have invoked the patent laws through the use o f a patented carton in which the flakes are packed as a mere “ subterfuge and device” to escape the provisions o f the Sherman law. The government asks for injunc tions to prevent the company, its offi cers and agents from controlling the price o f the breakfast food after it leaves the hands o f the manufacturer. The suit is regarded by the govern ment as o f vast importance because o f its bearing on the right o f a manufac turer to control prices to the consum er. It is alleged that the company sells only to jobbers, refusing abso lutely to deal directly with the con sumers or with the retail trade. The commodity, according to the petition, is sold to jobbers at a uniform price, under an agreement that the jobbers will sell to retailers at a price fixed by the defendants. The defendants are charged with strictly enforcing the agreement o f sale by absolutely refus ing to deal with any jobber who fails to maintain the specified price. PRESI DENT-ELECT AT HOME Staunton, V irgin ia, Gives W elcom e to W ilson. N oisy Staunton, Va.— Virginia enthusias tically welcomed home Governor W il son, the eighth o f her native sons to be chosen president o f the United States. From the moment the presi dent-elect crossed the state line at Alexandria in the afternoon, after he had a ten-minute glimpse o f the na tional capital, until 9 o’clock, when he reached the little parsonage where he was born 56 years before, the recep tion was one o f great enthusiasm, noisy demonstration and spectacular display. Escorted by cavalry, m ilitia com panies and a torchlight procession, the governor and Mrs. Wilson motored through the streets o f Staunton to the home o f Rev. A. N. Frazer, pastor o f the Presbyterian church. In this home Rev. Joseph R. Wilson, father o f the president-elect, lived in 1856. “ It is fine to be back again,” ex claimed the president-elect, as he stepped indoors. Suffering from the effects o f his cold, he returned immediately to the room in which he was born to rest. Staunton was not alone in celebrat ing the arrival o f the distinguished visitor. Fireworks shot across the skies and red lights threw a festive M EXICAN SHOPM EN STRIKE glare at all stations along the route.

Go back to Europe and your low-born wife; there Is no lack In my household." The voice broke In an excess of sav age triumph, and Lestrange took the pause without movement or gesture. “ I am going, sir, and I shall never come back," he answered, never more quietly. " I can take a dismissal, ysa. It ever I have wished peace or hopsd for an accord that never existed be tween us, I go cured of such folly. But hear this much, since I am ar raigned at your bar: I have never yet disgraced your name or mine un less by the boy’s mischief which sent me from college. The money you speak of, 1 have never used; ask Bailey of It, If you will.” He hesitat ed. and In the empty moment there came across the mile of June air the roaring noon whistle of the fac tory. Involuntarily he turned his head toward the call, but as Instantly re covered himself from the self-betray al. “ There Is another matter to be arranged, but there Is no time now. Nor even In concluding It will I ever come here again, sir.” There was that In his hearing. In the dignified carefulness of courtesy with which he saluted the other before turning to go, that checked even Eth an Ffrench. But as Lestrange crossed the threshold of the little building, Emily ran from the thicket to meet him, her eyes a dark splendor In her white face, her hands outstretched “ Not like this!" she panted. "Not without seeing me! Oh, I might have guessed—” * His vivid color and animation re turned as he caught her to him, heed less of witnesses. “You dare? My dear, my dear, not even a question? There Is no one like you. Say, shall 1 take you now. or send Dick for you after the race?” Mr. Ffrench exclaimed some inartic ulate words, but neither heard him “Send Dick,” Emily answered, her eyes on the gray eyes above her. "Send Dick—I understand, I will come.” He kissed her once, then she drew back and he went down the terraces toward the gates. As Emily sank down on the bench by the pavilion door, Bailey brushed past her, running after the straight, lithe figure that went steadily on out of sight among the huge trees planted and tended by five generations of Ffrenches. When the vistas of the park were empty, Emily slowly turned to face her uncle. “ You love David Ffrench?" he asked, his voice thin and harsh. “ Yes," she answered. She had no need to ask If Lestrange were meant. you to know; he'd have left without your ever knowing, but for Mlaa Em ily. I guess I don't need to remind you of what he's done; If It hado't been tor him we might have closed our doors some day. He understands the business as none of us back-num ber, old-fashioned ones do; he took hold and shook some life Into i t We can make cars, but he can make peo ple buy them. Advertlalng! Why. Just that fool picture ha drew on the back of a pad. one day, of a row of thermometers up to ona hundred forty, with the sign ‘Mercuries are at the top,’ made more people notice.” Bailey cleared his throat “ He was always making people notice, and laughing while he did i t He's risked his neck on every course going, to bring our cars In first, he's lent Ms fame as a racing driver to help us along. And now everything Is fixed the way we want, he’s thrown out. What did he do It for? He thought he needed to square accounts with you, for being born, I suppose; so when he heard how things were going with us he came to me and offered his help. At least, that’s what ha said. 1 believe he came because he couldn't bear to see the old place go under.” There was a skein of blue silk swinging over the edge of the table. Mr. Ffrench picked It up and replaced It In Emily's work basket before re plying. “ If this remarkable story Is true," he began, accurately precise In ac cent. “ You don't need me to tell you It Is,” retorted Bailey. “ You know what my new manager's been doing; why. you disliked him without seeing him. but you had to admit his good work. And I heard you talking about his allowance, Mr. Ffrench. He never touched It, not from the first; It piled up for six years. Last April, when we needed cash In a hurry, he drew It out and gave It to me to buy aluminum. When he left here first he drove a taxtcab In New York city un til he got Into racing work and made Darling Lestrange famous all over the continent. I guess It went pretty hard for a while; If he'd been the things you called him, he’d have gone to the devil alone In New York. But he didn't.” An oriole darted In one arcade and out again with a musical whir of wings. The clink of glass and silver sounded from the house windows with a pleasant cheeriness and suggestion of comfort and plenty. “ He made good," Bailey concluded, thoughtfully. “ But It sounded queer to me to hear you tell him you didn't want him around because Mr. Dick took his place. I know, and Miss Em ily knows, that Dick Ffrench was no use on earth for any place until Mr. David took him In hand and made him fit to live. That's all, I guess, that I had to say; I’ll get back to work.” He turned, but paused to ' glance around. “ It’s going to be pretty dull at the factory for me. And between us we’ve sent Lestrange to the track with a nice set of nerves." His retreating footsteps died away to leave the noon huBh unbroken. As before, uncle and niece were left op posite each other, the crumpled news paper where Lestrange’s name showed “ I thought there was to be no more trouble," she faltered, distressed. Lestrange looked down at her stead ily, his gray eyes darkening to an ex pression she had never seen. “ Have I no right?” was his question, "la there no canceling of a claim, Is there no subsequent freedom? Is It all no use, Emily?" Vaguely awed and frightened, her fingers tightened on his arm In a panic of surrender. “ I will come to you, 1 will come! You know best what is right— I trust you to tell me. Forgive me, dear, 1 wanted to— ’’ He silenced her, all the light flash ing back to his face. "A promise; hush! Oh, I shall win tonight with that singing In my ears. 1 have more to say to you, but not now. I must see Bailey, somehow, be fore I go.” "H e Is at the house; let me send him here to you." “It you come back with him." They laughed together. "I will— Do you know," her color deepened rosily, "they call you 'Darling;’ I have never heard your own name.” “ My name Is David,” Lestrange said quietly, and kissed her for farewell. "Uncle will like you when he knows you,” she laughed In her heart. "Any one must like you.” The servant she met In the hall said that Mr. Bailey had gone out, and Mr. Ffrench, also, but separately, the former having taken the short route across toward the factory. That way Emily went tn pursuit, Intending to overtake him with her pony cart. But upon reaching the stables, past which the path ran, she found Bailey himself engaged In an Inspection of the limousine In company with the chauffeur. “ You’ll have to look Into her differ ential, Anderson,” he wag pronounc ing, when the young girl came beside him. “ Come, please." she urged breath lessly. “ Come?” repeated Bailey, wheeling, with his slow, benevolent smile. “ Sure, Miss Emily; where?” She shook her head, not replying un til they were safely outside; then: "T o Mr. Lestrange; he Is In the pa vilion. He wants to see you.” “ To Lestrange!” he almost shouted, r> ° s' halting. I.estrango here?” “ Yes. There Is time; he says there fte Is time. He la going back as soon as he Bees you." "But what’s he doing here? What does be r ean by risking his neck wtttout any practice.” “ He came to see me,” she whle- pered, and stood confessed. "God!” said Bailey, quite reverently, after a moment of speechless stupe faction. "You, and him !" She lifted confiding eyes to him, moving nearer. "It Is a secret, but 1 wanted you to know because you like us both. Dick said you loved Mr. Lestrange." “ Yes," was the dazed assent. "W ell, then— But come, he la waiting." She was sufficiently unlike the usual Miss Ffrench to bewilder any one. Bailey dumbly followed her across the park, carrying his hat In Ms hand. A short distance from the pavilion Emily stopped abruptly, turning a startled face to her companion. "Some one Is there," she said. “ Well, Then— But Come, It W a itin g .” He “Some one Is speaking. I forgot that “ He Is married to some woman of In heavy type lying on the floor be Uncle Ethan had gone ou t" tween them.
