"If you can spare a few minutes to come with an old woman," she beâ€" gan mysteriously, "there‘s someone as would be glad to see you, someâ€" one as is grateful forr all you done for him. That there was a sense of gratiâ€" tude even among the least likely of men was further confirmed when a few days later Adam, walking down Hayne Street on his way to the colâ€" lege, encountered Mrs. Hagar. She had evidently been waiting in the hope of waylaying him, for she stepâ€" ped into his path as he approached and put a timid hand on his arm, Cases still rolled in, criminal cases mostly, and the man worked like a slave on them. He was always in his office when the staff left at night, no matter how many hours of overtime they had accomplished. The work went on and there seemed to be little suspicion among the clerks that they were on the verge of a scandal that would destroy the busâ€" iness. Only Mr. Brewster seemed worried, though it was impossible to get him to say anything, Probably he had better sources of information than the rest of the staff, So far the only effect of the gratitude evinced by the barrister‘s sharpâ€"faced â€" clerk was that Adam had become, next to Mr, Brewster, the most harassed man in the whole office. UNJUSTLY ACCUSED. I don‘t forget that it was you who brought us that bit of information about Hagar, and if I can give you a word of advice in return I feel as if I ought to do so. But keep it under your own hat, my son, and watch points, that‘s all." He left Adam in a state of great perplexity but determined to watch his employer as carefully as posâ€" sible for hints of the correctness of these allegations. It was true unâ€" doubtedly, that Mr. Perkin was short of temper, and, looking more gaunt and parchmenty than ever nowadays, but he still maintained his ascendâ€" ancy in the office, still went to the court with his head high and his umâ€" brella and gloves as immaculate as ever. If he were embarrassed and in deep water he contrived to put a good face on things, outside the ofâ€" fice at any rate, He winked again, then coughed" steadily for a whole minute before, ; observing Adam‘s look of perlexity, | he added: "I‘m saying more to you than I ought to say to anybody, but | Pipe Smokers! fill up with ar ¢ Smokers‘! fill up wit "GOLDEN VIRGINIA® and enjoy a really 79033" smoke!

Norway and Denmark are almost equal to Sweden in their faâ€" cilities for treating cancer, INCREASING RADIUM SUPPLIES. Cures were obtained in 6§$ per cent, of 200 cancers of the skin of the face; 68 per cent, of 66 lip canâ€" cers; 62 per cent, of 113 cancers of the mouth; 22.4 per cent. of 500 cases of cancer of the neck of the womb; 43 per cent. of 46 cases of cancer of the body of the womb, All of these. cases were what is known as fiveâ€"yearâ€"old cures, that is to say, a relapse had not occurred five years after treatment.

She has promoted newspaper cirâ€" culation campaigns and once nearly took a job in Mongolia as assistant to a missionary. The only time she was ever broke was in Florida when a bank closed. _ She‘s philosophical about that experience, though it was not so nice at the time. She‘s never afraid of anything says the only place she ever locks her door is in New York City, by the way. She expects to travel until she is too old to getâ€"asound. Then she‘ll sit in the sun on some remote island and write her memoirs. "If you‘ve ever actually been broke, why, then you can never be afraid of it or mind it again," she says. "So really, it was worth it for that bank to fail just to show me." It was just by a lucky fluke that Neill got to Pitcairn Island at all. Ships don‘t usually stop there, but hers did on account of an 8OS from the island. Somebody was very ill. That‘s the way things happen to her. as a stenographer and typist in many lands and nearly always has found good jobs in the diplomatic service. "You know Piteairn Island will only support two hundred people," she explains, "so when more than that get on it, the inhabitants draw lots to see who will leave, Well, I noticed that they all went barefooted there, because of course they have no leather. I had brought some bamboo sandals from Japan and they had the bamboo on the island, so I taught a few of the girls to make sandals and now they‘re doing it.

And there are so many countries, and even a lot more ways to go around . the world, I want to try them aill." The country where she found the most jobs was Russia, Miss James says. Only because of her visa runâ€" ning out, she couldn‘t stop to take any of them. The time she felt most useful was on Pitcairn Island, where she started a new industry. "I climbed ill the mountains in those parts and then looked over the field and decided it was a good time to go to Honolulu. No, I didn‘t have a job there. I‘ve found it‘s best to go without a job and look around.‘ _ In Honolulu her luck held and the brownâ€"eyed Neill persuaded an jce company to create a job for her. She took charge of the complaint depariâ€" ment and set about making the whole district iceâ€"conscious. Succeeded, 1oo. Then, as she says, seeing the ships go by all the time sort of made her restless and she decided to go to the Orient. The ice company gave her a six month leave of absence and she set out for Japan. This time she lanâ€" ded a newspaper job and never went back to the ice company, which was desolated to lose her and cabled her a raise!
