CHAPTER V. (Contlnu.d.)
Rtanton gasped. Where bad his
memory been, not to recall the name
of HoydT A multitude of confueed
recollection rushed across hi mind,
of that famous manufacturer and
moor for abeer love of the sport, of
the ruperb cart bs had built, and of
his death In a railroad wreck, the
previous year.
"He tied ma In his car," continued
fiord, with a shadowy smile, "whan t
was too young to be trusted to hold
on. 'If you are going to take my me-t-ban'r-tRn's
seat, Jes.' he aatd to dm,
') on liee got to do my mechanician's
work.' And by the time I was fifteen.
I could. W used to race with tha
rhlaf car tester, for combination train
ing, on a mile practice track around
tha factory. I held the wheel myself
at seventy-five miles an hour, before
I was seventeen. And he took me
with Mm. as a spectator, to every big
race here and tome abroad. Of course
he was training me to take charge of
the manufacturing business with him,
not for racing myself. But, somehow
affairs went wrong. When he died,
eighteen months ago, everything col
lapsed and I found nothing left. Tbe
factory Itself hi tied up In a lawsuit; I
may get that out of the ruin; butkd
inga full of silent machinery I have no
capital to use, and so heart to tell."
There was a pause.
"1 wonder. " Stanton mused slowly,
"whjr you volunteered to act as my
mechanician that night?"
Floyd's gray eyes flashed to meet
his. all his color and animation rush
ing back.
"Because I love the racing. I love
it." be answered, impulsively frank. "1.

checked himself sharply. "Ought we
not to go back on the course?"
Stanton rose, signaling the waiter.
"You saw me through that difficul
ty." he acknowledged. "But. you said
ttils morning that you had a sister; I
wonder you stayed with sue for the
"My sister understands," Floyd ex
plained; be had risen also, and stood
for a moment besMe his chair, his
unseeing gase bent on the ground.
"She knows that I was aot brought up
to live womsn-fashlos. 1 wish, if ever
you hear anything of me that you do
not like, that makes you feel different
ly toward me, I wiah you too would
remember that I was reared by a man
to live among men and missed all that
women teach."
Stanton regarded him in an astonish
ment at once Indulgent and Ironic.
"I'm not likely to hear anything of
you that will shock me very badly."
he dryly returned. "De you think I
am a gentle girl, myself, Floyd?"
' "Not so you could notice It," spraag
the prompt opinion; the candid gray
eyes laughed out of ttaelr short
eclipse.
They went back to the course to
gether. The neat two hours were spent In
rqpeatedly circling the ten tnile course
in ten minutes; a reasonable practice
aK. from Htanton'a point of view. On
the last trip he and Floyd disagreed
over a question of mixture, aad came

"It's running Mho it never did be

sent the definite order after him.

It It the perfection of comrsdeablp to
be able to quarrel without bitterness.
There wat a tan-colored automobile
drawn up oppoaite the exit, when he
emerged.
"Mr. Stanton," tumuinned a low
toned, smooth voice, from the car;
Valerie Carlisle leaned out, extending
a tmall hand.
She wat the on sum in nil on of cool
daintiness and repose. It was Impos
sible to meet her beautiful, concerned
eyes without yielding admiration, at
least.
"I have been waiting here for an
hour." she informed him. "1 am ao
distressed that my car should have
hurt you, I shall reproach myself ao
much If anything happens to you to
morrow because of your strained arm,
that I wanted to ask you about it my
self. A weakness there might kill
you, might It net?"
"It might. If It existed," he con
firmed. "But the strain does sot trou
ble me. I deserved to pay more se
verely for such stupid carelessness."
she did not avoid his keen gate at
all. yet somehow failed to Imprest ber
sincerity.
"It wss sn accident." the deprecat

a Duplex or an Atalanta, tomorrow. I
do not like the Mercury, It is to often

"It It fsster than either of the eth

spite of himself by her anxiety for his
safety. "I am also obliged to admit
that It Is not responsible for any of
our mishaps, so fsr, st least; I lead It
Into trouble, myself, sometimes."
Her long, fair lashes fell; she tapped
her Angers nervously upon the door
panel.
"If you could not race, who would
be likely to win, Mr. Stanton?"
"Yon are taking It for granted that
I will succeed I easily may not- But
wit heart the Mercury, probably tbe Du
plex or the Atalanta on this long road

She listened attentively, then
smiled.
"I am such sn amateur; I do not

invitation from pupa. He wishes to
consult you about auto tires, those
for your next race, and he hopes you

Thoroughly surprised, be promptly
declined.
"Excuse me to Mr. Carlisle; I must

CHARTER VI.
Missed.
The most agitated man In Lowell,
on the race uiornlug, waa tha assist
aut mausur of the Mercury company.
Aud ii.i i e wss s maddening irony In
hia sltusiiou. At s quart after tss,
fifteen minutes before Mis frrtt est
was to start, the Mercury stood ready
with. In his plsoe, tha trim, khakl-clad
mechanician, concerning whose pot
slble desertion Mr. Green had spent
much worry. But tbe driver, Stanton
the unfailing, wat ralislng. Is the
midst of the gay hubbub of tbe scene,
the Mercury camp wat on the verge
of frenty.
"You've telephoned to his hotel?"
Inquired Floyd, no lets troubled be
cause quiet, st Mr. Green came up
wiping his browa.
"Telephoned! I've telephoned to
every hotel In the town, to the police,
to to every one. He went to hta ho
tel and dreased for the evening, after
bs left here yesterday, and went off
In an Atalanta automobile wltb some
confounded woman; thst's sll I can
learn. He never came back to tha ho
tel, at all."
Floyd's slender brown hand shut
hard on the edge of the seat, tils lip
curled slightly.
"A woman?" he repealed, hit mer
diet! young voice atlnglng.
"They say so and I'd at toon have
thought of Ralph Stanton getting
drunk."
"You'd better phone to the means
asylum," advised tha mechanician,
and turned hit back to the whole af
fair, watching the brilliant spectacle
before him with scornful gray eyes.
Five minutes passed, ten. Tbe first
car was called to Its station. The Mer
cury had drawn fifth in the lottery for
place. Just four minutes before the
starting hour, a taxlcab bowled furl
outly across ths crowds, came to s
Jerky stop st ths edge of the court
and opened to emit its passenger
"Stanton !" hailed hit manager, choky
ing with exasperation and relist
"Stanton, for Heaven's take where
what"
"Sick," the driver flung at him,
springing across to his car, from
which Floyd slid out to give him en
trance. "Mfsk, gloves, you others."
"Sick?" echoed the unbelieving Mr.
Green, amid the flurry of preparation.
"You, you sick?"
Stanton, in his seat, turned a color
less face toward him before claapinf
on the mask.
"Sick," he reiterated explicitly.
"Are you ready, Floyd?' 1
The Mercury drew up to her line on
exact time. And In the moments while
the cars In front were being sent away,
Floyd found an opportunity to put a
question.
"You have been 111?" he coldly
asked.
"Acute indigestion; I've been in a
doctor's office since nine o'clock laat
night," mapped Stanton. "Did you
think I wat lying to you?"
"No. Are you tit to drive?"
"If you're afraid I'm not, get out and
leave me."
The signal was given. Whan the
Mercury flashed across the tine, Floyd
was almost at pale from anger as
Stanton from recent ..
Extending a Small Hand.
The rsc was for three huudrwd
miles, thirty times over the ten mile
courts with Itt sharp elbows And sleep

Washington. There It Stfll keen
anxiety among the Democratic leaden
lest s minority of the Democrats In
the sennte may make up their minds
to fight against the adoption of certain
of the provisions which the house will
mske sr. s part of tha party 'a great
tariff program. Thsrs Is still s dan
gsr. It la said in other dispatches, that
a minority of the Democrats Joining
tbe Republicans and progressive Re-'
publicans may change parts of the
tariff bill so radically that the house
may refuse to accept ths senate's
findings in the cases In point. This
will mean a long controversy in the
conference between the two houses
snd It msy possibly lead to compro
mises of which President Wilson may
fatl to approve.
This does not mean that Mr. Wilton
would veto the tariff legislation but it
means, if It should corns about, that
he may urge with all hit power the
necessity of following the spirit of the
Democratic platform and may take a
personal hand In the conference at he
has in the committee rooms already,
and insist tbat pledges shall bs ful
filled at be thinks the members of his
party at large believe they should bs
fulfilled
One Democratic tenttor said the
other day that sugar was alwayt tweet
excepting that when it entered into
the tariff rup and then it became In
stantly exceedingly bitter. There are
other things besides sugar which may
cause trouble In the senate. Wool and
lumber bave not yet paased safely the
stage of troubling. There have been
several tariff sessions In the last few
years and in every one of them these
three articles have been causes for
bitterness of feeling, long drawn out
debates, personalities which tome
times have been almost offensive and
"rows and ructions" generally. The
party in power admits that it will look
with much more complacency on life
when new tariff legislation Is on tbe
statute books approved by congress
and by the president, and watting ap
proval by the people.
Other Work Ahead.
I . mi
jhl
W ti
Tcotfcp.- things oeeidss-tariS
blch soon must occupy the attention
the Democrats, and a few of them
are occupying their attention today
Here are tbe principal things which
the party In power hopet to put into
legislative form before the congress
now in session ends its life in March
1915: :
Tariff revision.
Currency reform.
Revision of the Sherman law.
A budget system to make easier the
consideration of the appropritlou bills
and legislation which will make for ef
flclency and economy In the govern
ment's departmental service.
Philippine Independence.
Panama canal legislation again In
volving the question of free toll for
coastwise ships.
Legislation looking to flood pre v en
tion.
Conservation wtth a leaning toward
control by the states
Revision of the rules of the bouse,
but rnvislonof a kind which will not
make It appear that the dominant
party wishes to restore a one man
rule.
Legislation for the compensation of
federal employe wbo are Injured or
wbo suffer from occupational diseases
in the course of their employment,
legislation which In another form will
cover employes engaged In interstate
commerce.
This ts recognized by the Democrats
as a most ambitious program and com
paratlvt'ly few ef them apparently
think that all tbe things here set down
can bo accomplished within the life of
one congress. Some of the leaders say
that If any three ef the greater thlnga
are done and Snd acceptance with the
country, tbe Sixty-fourth congress,
like the present one, will be found to
be well within the control of the Dem
ocratic party.
Old Line Senators at Sea.
President WUsou aad the Dauiecrata
la official life In Washington generally
are not the only ones In the capital
deeply interested in the outcasts of
tariff legislation in the upper! house
At this extra session It Is perfectly

tha future of their party, and Judging
froui apissarancea tbay would give
much to know today Jual what pros
pect there is of ultimate concord
among the Democratic seiialots on ths
subject of the house bill.
In tbe senate tbe progressive Kepub

srt moderate tariff revisionists and It
is not likely thst they would stand
wtth the old line Republicana in oppo
sition tS those provisions of the new
bill which make only moderate cuts
In some of the schedules.
Old Tlmtrs in Doubt.
Tbe senste Republicans of tbe old
school do not know whether or not to
sit back and let the tariff bill go
through without much protest If tbey
csn get tbe support of the progree
slvss of their party tbey may be will
ing to make s stand and to protest vir
tually against every provision In the
bill, but otherwise they may elect to
Allow the messure to go through with
out math debate and ths trust to ths
lowered rstes to bring destruction to
ths Democratic psrty."
Some time ago, even before tbe new
Democratic tariff bill waa under dis
cussion by tbe house wsyt and meant
committee, some of the high protec
tion Republicans in the senste ssld
publicly that It would be better for
the party not to enter any vigorous
pretest against the passage of ths
bill, but simply to allow It to go
through with sn extremely limited
amount of opposition debate, and to
make a faw speeches tsylng tbst tbe
bill would be disastrous t the coun
try, snd then to sit back . let the meas
ure go through "aad trust the result
to God snd ths ultimate consumer
Now It msy be thst s change of
mind w ill come to the old Una Repub
licans. It It certain to come If the
progressives of thstr party will Join
with them In s program of ssssult
upon sll the provisions of tbe bill.
The old line Republicans, bowevsr,
say they do not believe it would do the
future of their party any good If the
Progressives were to Jotn with them in
their attacks on parts of the Demo
cratic measure snd to Join with the
Democrats In tile defense of other
parts of It. The high protection Re
publtcsns say that such s course sim
ply would accentrate the difference u'
tariff opinion in their party.
May B Little Opposition
So it may be that tbe tariff bill aa
framed by the Democrats will go
through the senate without much Re
publican opposition, but It is possible
that if the Republicans find there are
enough Democrats willing to Join i lien,
in opposition to the cat in the sugar
and wool rates tbey may agree to en
ter the light even though the progres
sives of thsir party will not go along
with thsm wholeheartedly.
As has been Intimated, President
Wilson htmself Is still in the twilight
zone on the subject of the outcome in
the senate on tariff legislation as pro
posed by the bill which has been In
troduced into the house. No president
ever has been able to know definitely
in advance hxt the senators ware
going to do.
president Wilson seemingly is op
timistic even while he does not see
his wsy yet perfectly clesr to com
plete success for his tariff measure
in congress. The friends of the ad
ministration declare that the president
thinks all tbe Democratic senators
eventually will be brought Into line
and that the bill which will go through
will bear so few marks of compro
mise that it rightly can be called an
administration measure and a Balti
more platform measure. The progres
sive Democrats in the senate are doing
everything which they can to bring
their higher protection brethren Into
line on sugar, lumber and wool. It
they succeed it will make little differ
ence probably what the Republicans
do, for the Democrats have a solid
majority of six In the upper house aud
this Is as good as if It were six hun
dred.
May Fine Absentees.
I'ulesa the members of the new con
gress are more regular in attendance
at the sessions than were tbe members
of the laat congress It is the Intention
of the leaders to adopt rules for the
first time in the history of the govern
meut which shall compel the presence
of members at the session, and "com
pel" is the word the leaders are using
when they speak of the projected reg
ulation.
Mluntly, it is the plan to propone
and to secure the adoption of a rule
under which heavy fines shall be in
dieted on representatives in congress
who abaeut themselves from the legis
lative chamber without adequate ex
cuse st times when their presence not
only Is needed but It merely desirable
It must be understood that tbla at

I Cor. 11.4,
This is tbe first of seven lessons
dealing with Joseph, a fact which sug
gests to us Sis importance in the his
tory and the working out of Qod't plan.
This particular lesson occurs about
ten years after Jacob s return to the
land of Canaan. There are msny
points of similarity between Joseph
snd Christ (1) JUs name means "add
Inge. ' ses Isa. :, 7; Lake i . 31-33 and
John 3:3ft (2) His birth which re
moved RsrneVs reproach (30: S4) even
so the birth of Christ has removed
ths reproach of sin, Col. M2 15, Ron.
1:1; (t) Tbe love of bis father, see
Matt 3:17. (4) His sufferings st tbe
bands of his brethren. Ps. 69:4; John
16:36. (6) His deliverance from prts
on which was a sbsdow of Christ's res
n rrection Acts 2:23-14. (() His
marriage to one of another race, Bpb
1:8.4. (7) file revelation of himself
to nit brothert, see Zacn. 12:10, 13:1.
Their Envy Aroused.
The cause of the enmity of Joseph's
brethren waa four-fold. (1) Hit tab
bearing. 37:2, his pure mind could not
brook their Infamous slanders and be
reported the same to his father (2)
His father's partiality as evidenced by
the cost of msny colors (v. 31). Only
the opulent and noble, kings' sons,
wore such a garment, and Joseph waa
thereby differentiated from bis ls
boring brothers.' (3) His dreams, n
6-7. Ood was revealing himself In a
marked manner to this young man.
which fact aroused their envy (v. 11),
and (4) bis very virtues were a re
buke to bis evil minded brothers.
Five wordB will serve to fix this les
son hi our minds: Deprivation, Dis
grace, Deliverance, Deceit and De
portation I. Deprivation v. 23. Joseph's coat
was symbolical of regal power and au
thority. It wss not a mere patch
work, but A long woven garment of
bright hues. His dreams, too. hsd
had to do wltb bis exaltation above
his brethren. As a matter of policy,
perhaps, be ought not to hsvs worn
the garment, but who can quest. ou
God's providential dealings. Bom. 8:
28. Joseph's reception was like thst
of Jesus. John 1:11: Matt. 37:38.
1 a. Prirjrae, va-tfi&r. Stride c:
the coat, Joseph is cast into a pit.
One wonders if the fact that there wss
no water there is evldencs of the
malignity of bis nine brothers or of
their somewhat tempered wrath. Jo
seph had pursued a long Journey snd
was doubtless hungry and thirsty, yet
these men sat outside eating and
drinking while murder lurked In thfelr
hearts w. 20, 26. 26). Joseph stAi-v
lng. wss, however, in a better case
than these brethren. One smong
them, Reuben, had averted a trag
edy (v. 22). now God intervenes and
sends this way a company of Ishmael
its traders from the land of Mldian
(see Judges 8:22-24). Cupidity prompt
both the traders and the brothers as
they made merchandise of Joseph,
thus svoidlng murder (Gen. 4:10).
Vslued Cheaply.
ITI. Oeliverar.cc. V. 28. Like Ss
Christ wss sold by one of his chosei
ones, so Joseph Is sold by the very
ones to whom of a right he should
have looked for love and protection
and how cheaply be was valued, prob
ably a little more tban 312. His bitter
cries were of bo avail (42:31), bu
this slavery was the road to a sov -erelgnty.
IV. Deceit vv. ?9:S8. These broth

eration of character which results
from evil courses. It took place witb
ln a very brier time, probably not to
exceed In years. Their Jealousy was
the outcome of their own evil courses

not ons of them had any esteem of
