There wouldn't have been o'clock, Daisy and Mr. Dabster stopped before Joe's booth. Dabster wore « silk, hat, and—well, Daisy was a woman, and that hat had no chance to get back in its box until Joe had seen it. A stick of pineapple chewing gum was the ostensible ob- ject of the call Joo supplied it through the open side of his store. Hoe did not pale or falter af sight of the hat. “Mr. Dabster’s going to take me on top of the building to observe the view,” said Daisy after she had in- troduced her admirers, “I never was on a skyseraper. I guess it must be awful nice and funny up there,” “Hm? said Joe. “The paporama.” mid Mr. Dab ster, “exposed to the gauze from the top of a lofty building is not only sublime, but instructive, Mise Daisy has a decided pleasure in store for “It's windy up there, too, as well| as here,” said Joe. “Are you dressed | warm enough Daise?* “Sure thing!

Deportation of a leper woman, the first case of its kind in this distric’ gnd the fourth in the history of the dGepartment of labor in the entire ‘United States, was announced Thurs- day morning by the immigration of. fice here. The case extends over a period of nearly four years, and has cost the government many thou -gands of dollars, according to Henry SW. White, commissioner of immigra Avka Kapetlo Bradanovic was born ‘in Austria about 33 years ago. In 1914 she came to the United States to live with relatives. She had a brother, a sister, and a brother-in- law in Bellingham. She was admit- ted, and went to work in a fish can mery there. ‘Two years later some white spots were noticed on one of Avka's hands. Little was thought of them, but as they became more pronounced it was rumored that Avka had con tracted leprosy. The report spread rapidly among the workers in the) cannery, and soon reached the ears of the mayor of Bellingham himself. ‘The chief executive of the city re quested an investigation by federal ofticers. He did not care by whom, fust so the alleged menace was re moved from his town. THREE DOCTORS EXAMINE HER The immigration authorities in Se ttle took the matter up with the department of labor at Washington, but were turned down.

But the war came on, and simply for lack of trans- Portation facilities the woman was Placed in the quarantine station of the U. 8. public health service at Diamond Point, near Port Townsend, Expenses to the government mount- @4 up rapidly during this period, for p@ rurre had to be kept with her at Leper Woman Loses Fight to Stayin U.S. immensity of space. “Bipeds,” he said. solemnly. “See all times, and thelr maintenance and specialists’ fees to be met.

Upon her arrival in New York Thursday the costly and dangerous passenger was immediately transferred to a quarantine compartment aboard the | liner Rochambeau, which sails Sat-| urday.

Suxie Price, in our store—her brother sent her Ucket to go to San Framgeisco—that's only three thousand miles.” The philosopher amiled indulgently “Our world,” he said, “is 91,000,000 miles from the sun.
