    OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
A GIRL AND A MAN
A New and Vital Romance of City Life
by Virginia Terhune Van de Water
CHAPTER XIV.
(Copyright, 1916, Star Company.)
Mr. Bainbridge closed the door be
hind him before speaking. Then he
stood regarding the girl.
ft Agnes felt his gaze rather than saw
t. For, after the swift glance that had
told of his entrance, she had dropped
her eyes to her typewriter and was
again hard at work writing over and
over the test sentence she had begun
before the Interruption. She was de
termined to seem as busy as she wish
ed she really was £t this moment.
"Miss Morley!"
He had spoken and she must stop.
Her hands came down on the keys
with a crash.
"I beg your pardon!" slve murmur
ed.
"And I beg yours," he smiled. "I
have come to ask a favor of you. Joe
told me that you thought perhaps Mr.
Hale was In—ln which case, of course,
you were engaged. But as I was sure
he had not yet returned I have come
to ask you if you will step over into
my office and take down a couple of let
ters that I am very anxious to get off
and to have well done.
His preamble before coming to the
point had given her a chance to collect
her thoughts and plan her reply.
"I am sorry not to accomodate you."
she said quickly, "but, as you see I am
rather busy now."
he smiled. "Can't that work
wait?" he asked. "I understood Mr.
Hale to say that you had finished all
his letters of this morning before
luncheon. In fact, he told me this as a
proof of how competent you are. That
Is the reason I have asked you to help
me out of a tight place. I am sure Mr.
Hale would be grateful at your doing
this."
"Did he"—she began.
"Did he tell me to call upon you
for your services?" he interrupted.
"No, he did not —because I did not
know until after my return from lunch
that I would need 1 them. I found some
special mall requiring Immediate atten
ti n. As Mr. Hale was sill eating when
I left him, he will not require you for
a while yet."
In a Dilemma
What should she do? There seemed
no way out of the dilemma. Suddenly
he crossed the room to her desk, and,
before she could guess his intention,
he had looked over her shoulder at
the sheet of paper In the machine. Her
eyes followed his to the type-written
page.
"Now is the time for all good men
to come to the aid of the party!" he
read softly. "Now is the time for all
good men"—he broke off with a hort
laugh. "You are indeed engaged upon
important work, Miss Morley." he
said. "Does it have to be flnislred at
once?"
"I—l—was practicing!" she faltered,
her face aflame. "I have Just taken
this position .and I want to keep my
self in practise"—
She stopped abruptly. Was this man
forcing her to lie? What was she fear
ing, anyhow? Her manner and expres
sion changed strangely. She stood up.
"I have not been frank with you,"
she said. "I did not care to take the
dictation you suggested. I was foolish
to say what I did. I am ready to do
the work you wish until Mr. Hale needs
me—if"—she hesitated—"you are sure
would approve."
• " I am very sure he would ap
prove," he replied, regarding her stead
ily. Then he laid his hand on her

MONDAY EVENING,
arm. "Child." he said, softly, "why
were you unwilling to do as X asked?
Surely," with a smile that made Agnes
writhe inwardly, "you are not afraid
to come over into my office—are you!"
"Of course, I am not!" she declared,
angrily. "I have told you, Mr. Bain
bridge, that I am r»ody to take your
dictation."
Picking up her notebook and pen
cil. she started toward the door her
head up, her eyes snapping, and he
followed her.
As she crossed he big outer office
with him, she was uncomfortably con
scious that Annie Mooney's eyes were
upon her and that Joe, meeting her,
winked at her slyly. What an ex
hibition she had made of herself!
If she was to be in the business
must meet such occurrences sensieta
world, as other women were, she must
meet such occurrences sensibly and for
get her own feelings. How absurd
Phil would think her actions had been,
could he know of them? Had he not
assured her that the very man whom'
she had just tried to avoid was "all
right?"
She Netda Her Skill
She did not look up as Bainbridge
motioned her to a chair, and, seating
himself, began to dictate rapidly.
She needed all her skill to keep up
with his swift-flowing utterances.
Indeed, several times, she was obliged
to ask him to repeat the last few words
of a sentence. She stilled the uneasy
suspicion that he was trylng'to confuse
her.
There were but three letters, yet
they were long. "When the last was fin
ished he told her that those were all.
She got up.
"I will go in at once and type these
at my machine," she said, "and send
them back to you."
"Thank you," he rejoined blandly.
"I will be much obliged. You will have
time to do them before Mr. Hale re
turns. It is not halfpast two yet," he
added, glancing at his watch.
As she passed him, the odor of
Spring flowers assailed her nostrils,
and she glanced at his desk. There
in a tumbler was the bouquet she had
seen nim bring into the office this morn
ing. He saw her look at It, and spoke
in a matter-of-fact tone.
"Kresias and daffodils make a pretty
combination in yellow, don't they?" he
observed, stooping to smell the blos
soms. "I always like ot have them
near me at this time of year. They
smell so Springlike."
Then he seated himself again without
further remark, and Agnes went on
her way.
It was borne in on her on her way
home that afternoon that she had been
far too rapid in Jumping to unwar
ranted conclusions.
She repeated that she was merely a
worker In a large organization and re
garded as a cog in a wheel and a very
small cog at that.
The more she thought over the day's
incidents the more she was confirmed
in her previous estimate of her own
foolishness.
After all, then, she told herself, he
had bought the flowers for nobody but
himself. Annie had been mistaken, and
she—Agnes Morley—had been a fool.
She had had ridiculous fears and no
tions. She must exercise more com
monsense hereafter. She was heartily
ashamed of herself.

RARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
IF ST IKE IS CALLED IT WILL
BE HANDLED FROM NEW YORK;
WOULD BE GREA I' CALAMITY
By Associated Press
New York, Aug. 14. lf President |'
Wilson fails to persuade the railroad |
men and their employers to settle their I
differences and a general strike is I
called it will be directed from head-i
quarters in this city. This announce- I
ment was made to-day as the leaders i
of the four big railway brotherhoods |
and the railroad managers reached j
Washington for a conference with the '
head of the nation.
At brotherhood headquarters it was
said that all preparations had been I
made for putting into effect a strike i
that would stop every train, passenger |
and freight, on the 225 railway sys
tems of the United States. The critical
state of affairs was indicated by the
anxiety displayed in every big in
dustry which would be crippled by the
failure of transportation.
"Unless the President can find a i
road out it means a strike,' said A.
B. Garretson, president of the Order t
of Railway Trainmen and official
spokesman of the employes as he
boarded the train for Washington at
midnight. Ellsha I-.ee, chairman of
the conference committee of railroad
managers, who \ylth the eighteen
members of his committee, went to
Washington on the same train that
carried the thirty representatives of
the brotherhoods, placed responsibility
upon the men for the failure of at
tempts at mediation. Mr. Garretson
said that the unbending attitude of
the railroad managers was to blame
for the break.
Summoned by President
The conference committee of the
railways and the leaders of the four
brotherhoods went to Washington in
answer to summons from the White
House brought here last night by
Joseph P. Tumulty, the President's
secretary. President Wilson in his
letter, pointed out that a general strike
at this time might have a disastrous
effect upon the country and said: .
"I feel that I have the right, there
fore, to request, and I do hereby re
quest, as the head of the government,
that before any final decision is ar
rived at, I may have a personal con
ference with you here."
Could Put Soldiers on Trains
Authorities here declared that
while the national labor law gave the
President no right to interfere offi
cially, the broad police powers vested
in him gave him authority to put sol
diers on the trains and even to de
clare martial law if he believed the
peril of the situation called for such
drastic measures. Attention was
called to the last national railroad
strike, in 1894, when President Cleve
land used the regular army to guard
locomotives and cars.
The tension in business circles here
to-day showed a realization of acute
danger of a national calamity. An ag
gregate of financial losses running per
haps into hundred of millions, labor
idleness and food shortage, were some
of the possibilities which a strike pre
sented.
Would Crinple Whole Country
It was to be remembered, business
men said, that there is scarcely a fac
tory of any importance which does not
depend on a railroad for its produce.
A strike, for instance, would mean
that the steel mills of Pittsburgh would
be cut off from their ore supplies in
Michigan, and Wisconsin, the automo
bile industries of Michigan from sup
plies of steel from Pittsburgh, the cot
ton mills of New England from their ;
cotton from the south, the garment
manufacturers of New York from their
cloth from New England, and every
industry everywhere would be cut off
from coal to feed their furnaces and
dynamos.
Food Question Serious
Of more immediate seriousness
would be the question of food supply.
The large communities which receive
the bulk of their food from long dis
tances would be forced to rely on what
products could be brought in by
wagon, automobile, trolley or vessel.
The suspension of the country's ex
ports, the congestion of imports at
coast cities, the stranding of hundreds
of thousands of travelers and summer
resort visitors far from tnelr homes —
these are other possibilities which the
strike situation presents, to say
nothing of its effect on the railroads
themselves, and their employes.

ler, Ralph D. Arnold, Samuel C. Tay
lor, George I. Carpenter, Thomas E.
Clark and Edwin Shoop. Bricker was
held under $1,500 bail and all the
others under S3OO bail each, on a
charge of conspiracy.
Union leaders declared to-day that
the men on bail will be furnished at

were not at the place of the attack.
To Arrest .Jitney-men
Chief of Police Zeil stated to-day
that informations are being made
against a number of auto drivers,
charging them with driving jitneys
without licenses. The warrants will
be served probably to-morrow, he said.
Organizer Thorpe reiterated to-day
that autos were being operated on the
"tip" system, and that more are to ap
pear in the streets.
Forty-seven cars were operated on
the lines of the Harrisburg Railways
Company to-day, and the number of
extra cars in the morning and evening
is being increased to almost normal
numbers.
Organizer Thorpe in replying to the
statement of Mayor Meals on Satur
day, that the executive was given no
notice of the strike, said that before
the men decided to vote on a strike, j
he called at the home of the mayor j
and asked to see the official. Mr. I
! Thorpe said that he was told that the j
mayor could not be seen. Mayor |
Meals said this morning that he is
determined in his stand to keep un
licensed jitneys off the streets.
Two Globe Men Are

1)R. RAUXICK ISSUES REPORT
OF JULY'S TESTS OF MILK
Of the nearly fifty tests of milk
samples made during July by the city
bureau of health and sanitation, only
one showed as low as 500 bacteria
per cubic centimeter, and three
showed as low as 3,000. One showed
28,000,000. Not a single trace of colon
was found in eighteen of the samples,
while in the others the number ranged
from 300 to 30,000.
Twenty-one tests of cream samples
were made and these showed from
112.5 to 30 per cent, of butter fats.
PROSPECTS OF
STAYING STRIKE
[Continued From First Page]
Garrettson did most of the talking for I
the men and he and the President dis- |
cussed the situation thoroughly. Mr.
Wilson promised to take the demands
up with the managers in an effort to
find a common ground on which the
two sides could meet. He said he was
I anxious to settle the difficulty as quick
ly as possible and was pre
pared to remain in continuous confer
i ence all day if necessary.
The conference was held in the
Green Room of the White House.
Large crowds of tourists gathered on
the lawn in front of the White House
to hear news of the proceedings.
I 1 "resident May Head Board
While the President and the Repre
! sentatives the men were conferring
| Mr. Chambers got in touch with the
i railroad managers and told them to
I be ready to come to the White House
| as soon as the conference was over.
I The managers waited at a nearby
hotel.
There were some suggestions, purely
informal, emanating from neither side
nor the other, but from sources in
touch with both, that the men were
regarded the possibility of arbitration
with the President himself, as chief
arbitrator.
It was arranged that the managers
should see the President at 3 o'clock
this afternoon and that meanwhile the
President would keep one or two other
important engagements, including one
with Mr. Chambers of the Federal
Board.
At the White House it was said no
indication could be given of the pro
gress of the negotiations until after
the President saw the managers.
After being with the President two
hours the representatives of the men
left the White House and Mr. Garrett
son said they expected to see the Pres
ident again later in the day after he
had conferred with the managers.
Mr.Garrettson refused to say whether
the outlook was hopeful.
Confidence lixpressed
"AF long as me matter is in Presi
dent Wilson's hands we will have no
statement to make," said Mr. Garrett
son.
The President immediately sent for
the railroad managers to lay before
them the position of the workmen.
Mr. Garrettson was asKcd whether
the negotiations were off. He replied:
"Absolutely not."
While no grounds for the feeling
was given, administration officials ex
pressed confidence that the President's
investigation would result in averting
a strike:
Expect to Return to New York
The men were expecting to return
to "New York for furthen conferences
with the managers to-morrow, and
had re-engaged the hall whefe they
have been meeting for to-morrow
morning. Officially, Mr. Garrettson
said to-day, the brotherhoods had no
knowledge of Secretary Tumulty's fly
ing trip to New York nor of the mes
sage he carried from the President.
"The chief objection to the existing
form of arbitration on the part of the
brotherhoods," said Garretson to-day,
"centers on the aitliculty that has
been experienced in selecting neutral
arbitrators who could do justice to the
cause of the men. In the past there
have been neutral arbitrators of high
standing and intelligence such as John
H. Finley of New York and Seth Low,
former mayor. No matter how honest
their intentions, they could not bring
to bear on the questions at issue the
disinterestedness necessary. Finley's
future relies entirely on the direction
of corporate influence, while Low, al
though honest, was surely influenced
by the fact that he is a large owner
of stocks and bonds.
Ajjainst Arbitration
"The appointments of neutral arbi
trators in the past under the provi
sions of the Newlands Act have damn
ed arbitration as a practical, proposi
tion in the minds of the men."
W. L. Chambers, of the Federal
Mediators, conferred with President
Wilson early this morning and ar
ranged for the conferences. There
was a suggestion that the President
might urge an arbitration by a board
of 12 members so that each of the
railroad brotherhoods could be rep
resented. The President, it was indi
cated very clearly, would appeal to
both employers and men on the high
est patriotic grounds to meet and
settle their, differences without resort
to a strike. President Wilson can
celled a long list of engagements in
order to give all his time to the
situation.
Railroad Strike Would
Eclipse All Previous Troubles
New York. Aug. 14. lf the great
railroad strike does finally become a
reality, it will be to all previous labor
troubles what the great war of Europe
is to all other wars. In the number
of men involved and in the extent of
territory it will have no precedents in
the history of railroad disturbances.
It will cover 250,000 miles of track and
nearly 400,000 men in railroad service
alone will quit work. And they will be
only the advance guard for the march
of other hundreds of thousands of men
and v omen away from work and
wages to idleness and scant rations,
because with the stopping of transpor
tation all other industry will end, too.

Many are the treasures which He ]

"Destiny's Toy" dreamed that the sea
at the Regent had cast its riches
at his feet, but his
vision never was realized until one day
he waded out among the rocks to pull

girl!
It all happens in "Destinty's Toy,"
which is shown to-aay and to-morrow,
at the Regent. Nan's arrival at Mar
tin's doorstep in the guise of a mer
maid was due to a shipwreck in which j
she had lost her mother. Her other I
name was Carter, and her fathfer was a
very wealthy man. who retired heart- j
broken to his beautiful home and lived
in practical seclusion when he learned
of the supposed death "f his dear ones.
When Joe suddenly dies. Nan is left
alone in the world. Through force of
circumstances, this innocent young
girl becomes a member of a gang of
crooks who unwittingly send her to rou
her own father's house. It is when the
girl is caught by the young minister,
who has been adopted by her father j
and placed under his guardianship that
the clergyman finds himself facing a
serious situation. Matters came to a i
climax when Robert's interest in his I
ward is discovered to be more than I
philanthropic and he is in serious dan- I
ger of losing his congregation. Then
the reappearance of the gangsters puts
a new light on the whole situation.

WOMAN
———— V.
Due To Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.
Bridgeton,N.J.—"l cannot speak too
highly of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta
— ble Compound for
,| yjgglH inflammation and
other weaknesses. I
■■PPPHL was very irregular
_jH and would have ter
1K 55? rible pains so that I
V 4 J could hardly take a
jfr jj|raf step. Sometimes I
f would be so misera
/ I ble that I could not
sweep a room. I
\~',J doctored part of the
'—-—J time but felt no
change. I later took Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound and felt
a change for the better after the sec
ond day. I took it until I was in a good
healthy condition. I recommend the
Pinkham remedies to all women as I
have used them with good results."—
Mrs. MILFORD T. CUMMINGS, 24 New
Street, Bridgeton, N. J.
Such testimony should be accepted by
ell women as convincing evidence of
the excellence of Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound as a remedy for
the distressing ills of women such as
displacements, inflammation, ulceration,
backache, painful periods, nervousness
and kindred ailments.
