A gain of 73 congressmen by the I Republican party will put it in control of the house of representatives and enable it to checkmate the enactment I of lavra which it way not approve. The pi speci of Republican house I is Iinqr--Siionably ne reason why the administration is 'ashing congress on I the anti-trust measures at this time. If the iaws a j not passed at this ses sion. it is likely that they will not be j passed at all, in the form desired by I the administration. Republican members of the house of representatives are eager to begin the faii campaign. They believe that the record of the administration fur nishes an abundance of material for reversing the Democratic majority In the house. They point to the business depression as affected by the tariff, I Miiplert with the steady increase in the cost of living; the failure to settle the Jiexican question; the repeaj of tolls exemption; the proposal to pay £5.000,000 and apologize to Colombia for alleged wrongdoing; the disturb- ouce to business on account of threat ened drastic and unnecessary legisla tion; the breakdown of the govern ment's foreign policy, and numerous other matters which have aroused public criticism. The Democratic administration is Pecessarlly on the defensive. It can not win by making promises, because it is in a position where the perform ance of obligations, and not the mak ing of them, is in order. Every devia tion from the Baltimore platform con stitutes a point of weakness, and the violation of the canal tolls plank alone vill call for the most energetic de fense on the part of the administra tion’s friends.

President Harrison announ ces that Southern Eailway Com pany has permanently withdrawn from participation in such rates from points where they have been in effect by Southern Eailway to meet similar rates offered by com peting lines. - This announcement is in accor dance with the policy of- President Harrison to do everything possible to discourage the movement of people from the South. For a number of years Southern Bailway has endeavored to discourage the offering of low colonist rates from the South, and has only placed them on sale at points where it wns felt necessary to meet compe tition.

Southern Eailway will continue to offer homeseekers rates into the South and will do everything possible to enconrage the coming of desirable settlers to the territory along its line. .PresidentHarrison feels that the Sonth offers greater opportunity than any other section and that people living in the South cannot improve their conditions by mov ing and that consequently the de cision to withdraw permanently any rates which might serve as an inducement to some persons to leave the South iB in their interest as well as in the general interest of the South and of Southern Bail- way Gompany. Criminal Negligence. Lexington Dispatch. A short time ago we printed a little bnlletih from the State Board of Health about what the preacher said ae the baby's funeral. You remember that the man of God stood over the little white coffin, iu the presence of the sorrowing parents and their friends, and said? “The Lord givetb and the Lord taketh away, blessed be the name of the Lord.” The lamily physic ian, who waB in the audience, knew better than that, though he did not say so, for he knew that the child died because of unsani tary conditions surrounding it dur ing its few short menths of exist ence. Father and mother had been indifferent about flies and the mother, like many another mother, had left the child to the mercies of a dirty, negro nurse maid, and it wasn’t the Lord that took the child away. The baby died be cause of the criminal negligence of its parents. That’s all. Colonel Fairbrother Again. Statesville Landmark. Col.

Some Hot Shot, Clinton News-Dispatch. The Wilson administration has disgraced itself and humiliated the American people in the cowardly manner in which it has handled the Mexican muddle. Wilson and Bryan seem to be afraid to fight Huerta and managed to get media tion in order to give their friend, Villa; an opportunity to-fight his way to Mexico City and proclaim himself President, and then they will perhaps recognize this ex- bandit and murderer, with the blood of innocent men dripping from his fingers, blackened with nameless crimes against women. This is the scoundrel that the Wil- Bon Administration is making an effort to place” over 13,000,000 Mexican people. ‘In his address before the Editors of Virginia, President Wilson said: “Give'me the laws I ask for and I promise you prosperity,” but say, Woodrow, isn’t your Congress giv ing you the iaws you ask for just, as fast as it is possible for Demo crats to make laws? Whiy the country was never more prosperous in its history than it was the day yon were inaugurated President and you called Congress in extra session and it began to give you the laws you ask for and you soon destroyed prosperity and brought hard times ou the country.

The writer has always been a very busy man, so busy in faet that he neyer had much time to play, and;we are inclined to the opinion that it would have paid us to have taken more time for recre ation as. we went along, \fe don’t mean laying off from work or loaf ing, but we mean taking time to play. There is a vast difference between the two as we see it. * \Ve older folks are nothing but grown up-children, anyway, and the thing for us to do is to keep young in our hearts by getting out for a day now and then and play ing with the kids. A good Jolly picnic is something we can all 'afford andlfind time for, even if we are so tied to our farms by interests that we can’t turn over to any one else. It .may be also that we cafinot afford to hire others to look at ter our interests, or could find no one we would trust. In which event it is out of the ques tion to think of going away for a week’s vacation to the seashore or the mountains or any where else. That is the Way ye were fixed. We couldn't get away for more than one reason, and just so long as we stayed around there was al ways something staring us in the face that heeded to be done, so that even picnics were rare things with us. ; Now, work is all right jn its place, but after a while it wears one down to a point where some sort of ehange'is almost a necessity it we are to continue to do our best Otherwise1Vwe sort of run down, get slowe^and slower and what we ■doVdoeajMte£*iBni'.to.chttnt.

London, July 31.—Only two factors to night are giving the faintest hope of averting a general war, Russia and Aus tria are engaged aiiain tonight in indirect negotiations and France and England are working hard in favor of peace. - _ On the other hand Russia has ordered a general mobilization and Germany has declared a state of war which is undoubt edly a prelude to, if it does not cover, mobilization. France has not mobilized, but the'cabi net councils issued a decree taking action which only would be determined upon the eve of war. Unofficially the Frencharmy is being virtually mobilized. An unconfirmed' report published in Rome says that Germany is about to de mand that Russia and France cease mobi lization. Another rumor is that the Ger man ambassador has notified the French government of his early departure. England is practically, but not officially, mobilized. The smaller European coun tries, as a precaution, have ordered mobi lization to protect tL.eir territories’ being used as a highway for the belligerents. Italy makes no announcement though rumor credits her with a decision not to participate. There is little doubt, how ever, but that she is making-ready for mobilization. Communication across Eu rope has been cut oif with the universal application of censorship. AU code tele grams are refused.

P ii:! .:fe; M jl ;i FINDING A FATHER •+ •------ By HAROLD CARTER. Bobby was lost It Is very hard to be lost when you are only five years old and hare gone out Into the world to find a father. He had wandered away from the little apartment uptown, and, having found the' street, had run on and on, past big, friendly policemen, and hos tile districts where bigger boys lay In wait for five-year-olds. Then he had come into a place of taxicabs and street cars, and how he crossed that he never knew. But finally he was In a crowded street, and—and he-hadn’t found a father yet. He held the scrap of paper wMch was to be a talisman in his hand. He had taken that from mother’s desk when she was in the other room. He knew that this would help him to find a father such as he had always wanted. Suddenly Bobby’s legs gave out He was tired and bewildered by the rush of traffic and the busy pedestrians, who did not seem to have time to look where they were gqjng. Several times he had been swept into doorways, and once he had been knocked down, and it required all his manliness not to cry. If he had' not been looking fr ‘-‘Well; Sir, What Can I Do for You?" •for a father he might have let the / tears come. And they did come now. He sat down upon the curb and -rubbed his eyes with two grimy little hands, and still he could not rub the tears away. ‘‘What's the matter?” asked a big policeman, striding up to him. “Are you lost, boy?” Bobby handed him the piece of pa per. The policeman looked at it and whistled. “Mr. Swanscott!” he ejaculated. “Saints alive! Is he your daddy?” Bobby nodded dubiously, more be cause he felt that it was the right thing to do than because he under stood. And the policeman picked him &up and led him across the street to a big building that seemed to tower into the skies, and spoke to the porter. The porter took Bobby to the door of a little room that was moving up and up, with people standing In it _ and pressing against the walls. Upstairs John Swanscott was hold ing a company meeting. The directors were all assembled and ready to be gin business. John Swanscott walked restlessly about the room. His heart was not in the company that day. He was thinking of the girlish wife who had left him five years before be cause—because— Well, that was ancient history now, and he had repented his fault in sack cloth and ashes ever since. And he had tried to find her so many times. But Hilda’s pride had lent her power to evade' him, and he had learned nothing. He did not know, for in stance, that he-,was the father of a boy. He did not know that he was a father at all. Certainly he did not know that Hilda wrestled with her pride every night in her lonely bed, and tried and tried and could not bring herself to write to him, even for Bob by’s sake. But with the shrewd instinct of five years Bobby had long ago divined that something was the matter with moth er. True, he did not know that moth ers ought not to cry at night, and sometimes during the day as well; it was only a subtle instinct that in formed him how happy he would be, and mother, too, if he could bring home a father. He had noticed particularly that the piece of paper with the name on it was treasured, and that often mother took it out of the desk drawer and began to write a letter, and that she always ended by tearing up the paper on which she had written, and throwing the pieces into the basket. Ah, well, it was not necessary for John Swanscott to know all this. He had troubles enough. He had thrown himself unreservedly into his work, an embittered man, and not a very generous one. The name of Swanscott had- become feared in Wall street. There was not one of the directors, - who stood nervously about the room, who was not .afraid ,of him. - \ , u “The meeting is called, gentlemen,” he said—and just then a clerk came In through the private door. “To see me!" exclaimed John Swanscott incredulously. “The porter, did you say?” Then anger got the better of him. “Did you tell him I had a company meeting ?” he began. And Just then a dirty little boy with a tear-stained face and grimy hands that clutched a scrap of paper, came toddling into the room., Bobby looked round gravely, and he stared into the face of each of the amused directors in turn before plant ing himself, upon his sturdy , little legs in front of Swanscott. "Well, sir, what can I do foryou?” inquired Swanscott gravely. “Have you come to attend the meeting of this company?” “Yes,” answered Bobby, with equal gravity. "I w antafather." . Tlie words stung Swanscott to!!the quick. He glared at the little boy, and the directors, each of whom knew the tragic story of Swanscott’s life though he did not know they knew, tried to suppress their interest. “So you have come to me to find a father for you, have you?” inquired the president "What is that you have in your hand, young man?” _ Bobby stretched out his hand, and offered him the paper, with the assur ance of five years old. Swanscott took it and gave an involuntary start It was Hilda’s handwriting that he saw before his eyes. It was impossi ble to mistake that. How many times had he not seen it upon those letters at home, every one of which he had read so often that he knew it by heart! “Mother is always /crying because I haven’t a father,” explained Bobby. “She cries all night, and sometimes she writes things on a piece of pa per and then tears it up and frows it away. So I thought—I thought I would get a father.” John Swattscott looked round him, and suddenly a warm sense of human ity filled his shrunken heart. And the directors, seeing the look upon his face, drew together into a corner. “What is your name?” asked Swanscott of the boy. "Bobby?” That was his name—his second name, and it had been arranged that if there werC a boy he was to inherit Swans cott reached for his hat “Well, Bobby, I guess you have -found one,” he answered. "Geptle- men " he added, turning to the direc tors, “there will be no company meet ing today.” (Copyright, 1914, by W. G. Chapman.) Height of Tower of Babel. The details of the great Tower of Babel, the remains or which utilitar ian Turkish contractors removed from the face of the earth, are insured to us by the finding, recently, of the clay tablet or book, describing the tower at Babylon. It was Geoige Smith, the Assyri- ologist, of the British. Museum, who had in his hands the inscription, but died before being able to complete his examination of it. His description of the tablet was often quoted, but no one knew its whereabouts till it came to light again in the hands of the Rev. V. Scheil. After descriptions of the temples and shrines, the writer turns to the Tower itself. This is the Tower’s de scription: One hundred fifty feet square, 55 feet high, of worked brick, was the lowest stage. One hundred thirty feet square, 30 feet high, enameled) the second.

THE PEOPLE’S RIGHTS MAINTAIN; UNAWED BY INFLUENCE AND UNRRIRED BY GAIN ” XVI.MOCKSVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA. WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 12. 1914 NUMBER 4 S LOSER Foreigner Getting Money That Should Be His. Adverse Balance Works Out at One Million Dollars a Month, and Consumer Has Not Benefited From T ariff Reduction. In the ten months ended April, 1914, tie value of foreign foodstuffs iin- sorted into the United States in creased $10,000,000 or $1,000,000 a month. This money, which should Jiave gone to the American farmer, went to foreign farmers. In the same period the exports of American foodstuffs decreased $64,- 116,000, or $6,400,000 a month. TAe adverse balance against the American farmer, so far as dealings with the outside world are concerned, Is $75,000,000 in ten months. During the ten months ended April, 1914, there were Imported 20,058,989 bushels of oats, as against 714,767 bushels imported during the same pe riod ended April, 1913. Comparing the same periods, there were imported 1,854,054 bushels of wheat, against 769,329; others breadstuffs, $2,602,952, against $1,362,630; fruits, $26,155,168, against $21,635,382; nuts, $722,217, against $636,290; butter, $1,633,516, against $253,513; cheese, $9,302,438, against $7,683,399; olive oil, $6,444,- 247, against $5,815,810; prepared vege tables. $3,015,545, against $2,772,100; vegetables, $1,468,396, against $1,308,- 821. The importation of eggs during the ten months ended April, 1914, amounted to 5,043,765 diozens, valued at $1,000,000. These are staples produced by American farms, orchards, and gar dens. The new tariff reduces the duty upon these articles sind opens the market to foreign farmers. I The for eigner has seized this opportunity and is now making $1,000,000 a month which formerly went to the Ameri can farmer. The consumer gets no benefit from this tariff reduction. The price has not gone down on a single article mentioned. The high tariff .formerly kept the foreigner out and gave, this business to the American farmer. The new tariff throws the business to the foreign farmer, who, with the middleman, pockets the benefit, and the consumer pays as much, as he did before. The only lo^er is the Ameri can farmer. '.

There are many comparatively worthless people who own comparatively worthless dogs. It is so fatally easy to con tract to support a dog—a dog of that sort. The pups have little or no money value; the grown dogs are passed around as gifts. It is the great bulk of mongrel, irre sponsible dogs under the nominal ownership of irresponsible people that is responsible for the disap- pearance of the Bheep industry. This sort of dogs constitute the rural dog problem, and in the mam the dog problem of the towns; for the average responsible citizen, having a dog with any valuable qualities, is likely to keep a regu lative eye on his property, which is also usually his valued friend. Lay a sufficient tax, once for all, on every man who acquires a dog ia any manner. The theory is that the great majority of people will thereupon cease to accumulate dogs for which have neither any real use nor any especial desire. It might be contended that the onery man has as much right as any one to comfort himself by the ownership of a dog; but we dispute that, in the first place. Ifo man has a right to own a dof unless he looks after him properly, and an oneiy man never looks after any thing properly. In the second place, a reasonable tax would be a small sum compared to what the cost of feeding the' dog will be, so that if a man can manage to feed a dog he can manage to pay_for him. In the third place, if a man realizes be has to pay for a privilege, he is likely to take it more seriously. We think that, in a word, the imposition of this sort of a tax would operate in at least two ways to minimize the dog problem, after a few years. It would have to be worked out, in actual practice, as a tax on dog ownership; but the owner would know at the time he acquired the dog that that tax would have to be paid. And there Should of course be adequate pro vision for the enforcement of the law. Coining of The Robes. Summer is at hand, and likewise the annual coming of the eity rubes. Treat them gently, handle them with care, for though they may not be marked “ fragile,” they are as babes ia the woods. Give freely of your store of knowledge, that they may return to the abode of innocents with wis dom to spare, for as we give in this life so shall we receive in the one to come. Instruct them carefully in the fine arts of the milking of the cow. the feeding of the fowls and the pitching of the hay, and smile not when they ask yon to remove the “thick yellow scum” from their milk. Assure them that when the cock crows at break of the day it is not an alarm of fire, nor yet an earth quake and neither is.it a signal for lights oui in the bar room.

Some people think that yelling and shaking the fist is oratory, and it is of a low grade calculated , to attract the ignorant and thought less. Sensible people don’t; listen to it. W hatappealsto them is rober and quiet talk, something that awakens their reason and not their prejudice. It is a crime a l. most, to arouse a persons spite and hate in discussing some public L sue. But that is Borne people’s idea of oratory. They thinkthey have to get people mad at some other people and to blind them to. the truth of the other side. And yet so much of our public affairs is conducted upon that plane. [Sorry to confess it, but that’s about the only kind of orators we have in.Davie.

ThcMSeageGraft , Congressmen, under an ancient jaw ,enacted , in. the stage coach .doys, receive 20 cents a mile for transportation to Washington al though the actual cost of the trip ,is two- cents a mile! This graft on the part of our law makers is not ,.Confined to parties. It is not a irtisan question At all but one that is? wholly personal and selfish. !A recent bill to reduce this mileage |o a reasonable basis was defeated /ln Congrees, and we are sorry to say-that our. two Senators and itepresentative Kitchin helped to defeat it. The leaders in the jphmse on both sides, Messrs. Un derwood and Mann, both iined up favor of'this.rake off, so that !neither can shake his fingers in the other’s face, for they are tarred with the same stick. AU sorts of excuses are offered for this an -reasonable graft, the strongest being (and it is pitifully weak) that, this 20 cents a mile .covers the expenses of a congressman’s family, ^and unless a congressman has bis wife along he is liable to fall into temptation! Bue the congressman without wives get 20 cents a mile, and the man with one child gets as mnnh for the tranportation of that one as the one with ten children! The whole thing is. wrong and no excoee can be offered for it. In deed it would be more manly to come right out and say that it is the money they are alter, rather than to prop up their canse by the flimsy arguments they present. Mr. Small advocates the best plan that has yet been proposed, and that is-for a congressman to keep account of his actual out lay, ^present it on his arrival and be Reimbursed by the government, the Whole account to be published so that the public can Bee it. But Mr. Small will hardly make much headway with his proposition. KotwithBtanding the clamor that is always raised in campaign times about ecpnomy and reform, when the opportunity presents itself for economy and reform to begin among the members, they are found wanting. It wonld look much bet ter and inspire more publie confi dence if these gentlemen would 8weep about thoir own doors before raising a hue and cry about the trash in other’ people’s yards.— Charity and Children.

According to an estimate j ust made there have been approximately 12,000 automobiles sold in Kortb Oarolina since they were first intro duced into this State. In Guilford county last year there were 578 machines and in Greensboro alone there were 299 car owners. It would be a safe estimate to say that 100 automobiles were sold here during the past year. Takenonan average each car costs about $1,000 and this means that for automobiles in this state there has been expended $12,000,- 000 all of which is sent out of the state, save about 20 per cent, al lowed agents in the state. Provided the agents are paid as mnch as 20 per cent, there would yet be as mnch as $10,000,000 that has been paid out of the state by automobile owners. Not So Strange After AU.

He was loved and esteemed by all the people of the county, white and black, rich and peor, and he will be missed more than any other man in the county. He was a Confederate soldier, and served the county in various ways For ten years he was sheriff, atid latercoanty commissioner and re presentative. He w as connected with various enterprises .throughout this section, and was president of the Bank of Davie since its organization in 1901, and was a director of the Mooresville Division of the Southern Railway. He has been a great figure, politically and financially in Davie, and had amassed a large fortune. The funeral and burial services were attended by one of the largest crowds that has ever assembled in Davie for a like occasion. The editor has known Mr. Bailey for many years, and in his death we lose one of our best friends—a man whom we loved, and respected, and who stood by us since we came to the county. His place will be hard to fill. His wife mourns a loving husband, the coun ty mourns one of her foremost citi zens, and all who knew Mr. Bailey are saddened by his death. Peace to his ashes.

Mr. Editort-Here is a ticket that we wish to suggest to the Republi can voters of Davie county and we feel that if this ticket is nominated and elected that there is not a man on it that will be muzzled or will lick the boots of any self constituted boss of Davie county Republicans; For House—James L. Sheek. “ Clerk Gourt—Ed Morris. “ Reg. Deeds—Geo. Tutterow. “ Sheriff—Geo. Wineeoff. “ Treasurer—Thos. T. Watkins “ Commissioners—John L. Fos ter, Spergeon Garwood, John W. Etchison. For Coroner—W. T. Shermer. “ Surveyor—M. C. Ijames. The above ticket will reassure the voters of Davie county and will in spire them to the idea that the gov eminent of Davie county will be re turned to the people who pay the taxes. Thewriterwishesto callthe attention of the voters to three great movements in the county of Davie. The 1st was the Prohibition move ment which was met • and decisorly ,settled for the best interests. 2nd the Good Roads movement which was more decided than the above. The 3rd, which.is yet to'be;settled is the equalization vof the taxes, in Davie county so that the rich man will pay proportionality to the poor man—these things have got to be settled. Mr. Voter where do you stand? With the rihg who believes in suppressing everything from the public and who stands for rotten politics. Now is your time to ex tricate yourself from this yoke of bondage, be men, think and act for ycurself. V oter. ' Mrs. WiUon Dies At White House.

IEIC j By SELINA ELIZABETH HIGGINS- • When Pietro Sanchez returned from putting down the insurrection in Mo- dlva, he brought to his home town of OPiasta but one trophy of the -war— a large brass cannon. Pietro was an honest, sturdy black smith. He had fought just as he set tires on the wagon wheels or shod a horse—his whole soul in the task. He had been the leader of the company which drove the marauding gang of ,Rivolla, the bandit, out of the dis trict Who had a better right to adopt the great field piece as a sou venir of those troublesome battle days? • The blacksmith shop was located on the topmost bluff overlooking the broad Rio Brazos, commanding the valley for miles. Just at its edge Pietro had set the cannon. “It-is a memento, a monument and a trade sign,” said Pietro. “There it shall remain as a record, reminder and sign manual of the trade of the anvil.” "But, neighbor,” spoke a fear-mind ed nervous old man, “these are days of peace. Why remind of war?” “It shall not be moved,” persisted ,Ketro stubbornly. “Who can say what may come?” • There came new disturbances as the year passed by, but these were centered in a distant province.. Pie tro looked grim and thoughtful as he heard of new depredations of the Ri volla banditti. Airy, fairy Ninez, full of all the joyous hopefulness of youth, only smiled on. She was light-hearted and happy.. Had she not Each Night Some One Had Watched. Luis Guarez, the handsomest gallant at PJasta ? His stalwart arm, his loy al heart would spring to action in re sponse to any patriotic call. As to Rivolla, some day the gibbet. Tet she recalled the dark, perfidious face of the cruel outlaw with a shudder. For the family of Pietro had known Rivolia in the past. Two years be fore he had lived at Piasta for a time. He had appeared as a suitor for Ninez. Sternly old Sanchez had or dered him away from the threshold, learning of his cruel . and cowardly past And Ninez had felt relieved when the fierce yisaged bandit had departed from the village. Then there had come a misSve for the little Mexican'maid. It was from the renegade Rivolla, now devastating a peaceful district, driving oS cattle, burning peaceful homes, blotting out the lives of worthy patriots,, in cold, murderous riot and hate, “Have a care!” the words of the message ran. “I have sworn to make you mine, and Rivolla never fails in his purpose.” It was of this that Ninez and Luis were speaking one moonlit night. They had strolled along the bluff, where the clear cool air was like balm. The river flowed by, a spark ling sheet of silvery sheen. The air was heavy with perfume of flowers. The pair had seated themselves on a bench that ran beside the old field piece. ‘‘Another month, mio Ninez,” spoke the young man fervently, "and you will be mine. Then adios! to all your needless fears of this terrible Rivolla.” “You do not know his treacherous nature,” fluttered Ninez, shrinking closer to her manly escort as though from a sense of projection. “My fa ther tells me he has broken loose again with his wicked, horde. They have ravaged one province. They have sent a'demand to the governor of Mitall demanding large bribe money, else they will visit his people next He has refused. When they march thither, my father says ai slight detour from the trail would bring them near to Piasta. It is like Rivolla’s evil nature to make a raid upon this peaceful town out of sheer revenge.” ' . "Rivolla is a braggart and a cow ard!” declared Luis. “It was in the last campaign that he threatened our little army so direfully, only to run and hide when we advanced upon his .stronghold.” < Nlnea smiled and forgot her fears as they strolled homewards. Luia “was so brave, so proud of his clear family name and of herself! He did not tell Ninez as he bade her good night, but he knew there was some foundation for her words. Others as well were in the secret, but were not spreading: it to alarm the quiet town. Thus, it was known to many of the old guard that Rivolla was once again on a raid. If his band was of any numerical strength he might Invade Modiva. Otherwise, he, would scarce ly venture. • Each night for a week some one of the old war company had watched the river and its opposite shore. It was from that direction Ri volla would come, if at all. After leaving Ninez, her lover re turned to the bluffs. It was his night for patrol duty. For a long time he sat by the side of the can non, his mind going over the blissful hour he had spent, that evening with his fair inamorata. His cloak wrapped about him to guard -himself from the usual mid night chill sweeping down the valleys, Luis suddenly aroused, as chancing to glance across the broad stream he saw a faint blue glimmer of blue light. It changed to red, to amber, back to blue, and then three miles nearer to the point, directly opposite the town, there were responding signals. Familiar with the tactics of the out laws Luie in an instant understood that peril hovered. Without disturbing or alarming any other melnber of the family, he aroused Sanchez. A grim smile crossed the face . of the smith as -ha listened. His clear eye glowed with the coherent resolve of a resolute and intelligent man as he gave his direc tions. Luis was to carry these out. “Mount your swift horse,” directed Pietro, "arouse the gunsmith and send him to me at once. Then make for the ford and reach Modiva. Tell the mayor there to rouse up the old guard and hurry to surround Rivolla and his crew.” "But if they cross the river before then?” submitted Luis quite anxiously. “They will not cross the river,” de clared Pietrow itha grim, determined flash of his lion eyes. At daylight over one hundred grlm- visaged, determined men were gath ered on the bluff where the historic field piece stood. The mists slowly lifting showed the camp of the out laws on tlie opposite bank of the river. They had employed the night in scouring the shore up and down stream for every stray raft, yawl ano rowboat they could find. A formida ble flotilla, all centered in a group in a little cove, showed. Beside the canndn stood old San chez, in his hand an unlighted fusee. His old companion gunner was sight ing the field piece. “Aim low,” directed Pietro, and the fusee was lighted. “Grand old thunderer!’’ commented the patriarch of the village, as boom and flash and destruction haunted the face of the waters: There was confusion on the oppo site shore, as almost to the last ves tige the flotilla was destroyed. And then new excitement as Luis, with the Modiva contingent cut off the inland retreat of the baffled bandits. Routed, prisoners or destroyed, their evil career was summarily and per manently checked and the power of Rivolla broken forever. And in the -white moonlight, hov ering near the brave old field piece that had saved Piasta, Luis and Ninez renewed their plighted troth. (Copyright, 1914, by W. G. Chapman.)

The Republican campaign commit t e e is enthusiastic and aggressive, ihila the Democratlo committee is on .he defensive.

Lower Tariff, Dearer Beef. The great law of supply and demand still rules the meat m arket Statistics show that the number of cattle grown In the United States does not Increase so rapidly as the number of people to eat beef. Taking all the duty off of dressed beef was hailed at Washington as a sure method of increasing our supply snd reducing the price thereof. . An nouncement that the price is to ad vance 15 per cent comes as a dismal auawer to that promise and a chal lenge to the economic theories em bodied in the Underwood law. > It is true that taking the tariff off beef is not responsible for raising the price at this time, but neither has it been able to prevent the increase. However, a real tragedy is being en acted in another direction. Under free wool American sheep are rapidly disappearing. They had a bard enough battle for existence when lbelr fleece, enhanced In value by a Wgh tariff, made a larger profit for ihe farmer and the ranchman. But free wool is resulting In a widespread daughter of American sheep. The ef fect of this is sure to be dearer mut- Wn in the future, while the direct beneflts from free wool are still to be learned. , Country Must Be Patient . me one bright feature of the busi ness situation is the big crops.

Mr. Editor:—How long, oh how long will poor old Davie submit to its present state of affairs? Boss- ridden, hob-curbed and ring tailed by one or two men, and its voters for the past twenty years have gone up to the polls'and voted like sheep driven to the slaughter. There is no use conceeding the fact that something must be done by those who stand lor clean government and the enforcement of the law. It is immaterial with the citizens of the county which party is in pow er so we get-a purer government and a square deal for all and unless the present ring is dethroned we need expect nothing but the same old regime that we have had for several year. It has been the ease for Io these many years that a man who ran on the Republican ticket in Davie should have some money; no poor boy need apply, and anoth er thing, I want all true Republi cans of Davie to stop and -reflect just one moment on one thing. Who have you been. voting for? Have you voted for Republicans, or have you been voting for ex- democrats? Name me oyer three genuine Republicans holding office in Davie couuty. I have no ob jection to ex-democrats holding a reasonable number of the offices, but I do object to them holding all as the case has been so long. I be lieve that the great majority of these offices should be filled by true blue Republicans that have helped to fight the battles of the party when it tried men’s souls to be Republicans. Give the bulk of your offices to the old horse tbat has pulled the plow, not to the man who has come in at the elev enth hour and demands as much or more than the man who .has worked all the day. The writer believes it commendable of any man who sees the error of his way and turns to what he thinks is right, both politically or other wise, but I do not think it Tight as soon as he sees the light .to bring him in and set him up on a high pedestal. Try him out and he can easily wait if he is true until there is an opening without crowding out all the Republicans. I waut to aopeal *to every Re publican of Davie county to go to his primary and see that his vote is recorded for his choice, not the choice of the Boss. Have it re corded for men who have back bone enough to do right regardless of whether it offends the Boss or not. The Democrats of Davie are also as much under the Boss sys tem as the Republicans and it is the critical moment for all clean government people to strike their blow. Here’s for turning out the entire shooting match and putting in a goodly number of Republicans ann a few ex-democrats. ' The writer has a chip bn his shoulder. If any citizen of the county wishes more light turned on, he has the stuff that it takes to turn it on; C itiz e n . Eibaville News.

Wonder Why? ’ - An Open Letter. * - Editor Record:—I .read the ar tide togetherwith the ticket sug gested in the last issue of The Re cord. I want to thank whoever it was for the kindness that prompt ed him in suggesting my name for clerk of the court. I am not. a candidate lor clerk of the court, aud hope my name will not be further considered in connection with that position. . My friends from various.sections of the county have talked to.nie - ,about running for some office in th e .county this year, and I have ^een reluctant to consent to enter the race at all. believe my friends in. - the county generally understand my position I have stood up for and contended for the will of the ; people as ex !pressed in the.primaries, being the supreme Iawviu ’.!he convention. Certain men' and - their methods have not, and;will not .receive my support in the/future unless they Squarewiththe right. I do not approve of the harsh language used in the article suggesting the ticket. The rank and file, .of the party in Davie eounty' know w hat is what,' and who is who, and it is not ne cessary for us to abuse any one or stir up unnecessary - strife among the people. We can advocate men of our choice and-work for their nomination without abusing those we oppose. It’s a: good idea to suggest men for the various offices, acd in this way get the people to thinking, and in this way the peo pie will become interested and will inquire into the records of the men suggested, and thus - find out of their character and, fitness for the office for. which they; are aspirants. It is.more than necessary that we nominate dean, honest, capable men to fill the offices, for the peo pie want honest and capable men, men in whom they have confidence. The poet in speaking of times like this, said: “God give us men), A time like, this de mands. Great hearts/strong minds, true faith and willing hands.;: - Men. whom the: lusts of office does not kill, Men whom the; spoils .of office cannot buy. Men who possesses convictions and a will. Men who love honor, men who dare not ' He." :'V ■ Mr. Editor, if there ever was a |ime when just the type of men above described were needed to fill all of our offices it is now, for the world is confronted; with some of the greatest and most ? difficult of problems, and upon their proper solution the destinies, of nations hang. A spirit of unrest pervades the atmosphere it seems, and today a large portion of the civilized world is engaged in what looks like the greatest and most destruc tive war of the ages. Tbecountries whose people are pow engaged in this terrible war : across the seas are already groaning under debte exceeding twenty billion dollars, debts whose interest charges an nually stagger the ordinary mind, and we who are at peaee with all the world are fast traveling in the same direction, ,and unless a - halt is Called in the issuing of bonds, and the increased burden of high taxes, We too, will have a problem on Our hands. I tis a self evident proposition, incontrovertible, that continued bond issues and the in creasing of taxes do not make the people rich, nor add to their love ofa government that'continues to pile the burdens upon them. There is a limit to human.endurance and there is going to come a time when the people are going to say there must be a limit to-bond issues and high taxes. We can discuss can didates, and all other questions of. importance to us all, without bit terness or personal, abuse. - - Yonrs truly, . E. H; Mokkis. - Mocksville, N. C., Aug; 12, ’14.

C. ■ The;36th Annual Masonic picnic was held at Clement Grove, this city, last Thursday. .Despitethe threat ening; weather a large crowd were present from, all parts of Davie and adjoining counties, arid a number of former Dayieites from the west and east. ' The exercises were very good, and the address by Hon. Thos. Bick- ett, of Raleigh has been highly com plimented. The music by the Wins ton band was extra’good, and it was " very sorry man who did not enjoy . The rain prevented a large num ber of people from hearing the exercises, as the arbor was not half large enough to accomodate the large crowd. Abiggerarbor is needed. TheiCrowd1 while large, was not near large as last year, and the receipts were cut down to seme extent. There were three or four arrests made during the day, one of them being for selling liquor. There was a good deal of drinking and cursing on the grounds, but considering the large crowd present the people were mighty nice and well behaved. The price of dinner was raised this year to 75 cents, notwithstanding the high cost of living is said to be coming down, But those who had the 75 cents felt after the dinner that they had no kick coming, and went away well pleased, declaring that the dinner was the best they had ever eaten. AU and in all, the day was one of en joyment and good feeling all around, and those who did not come this year missed a treat. Sorry we did not have the time to hear the exercises so that we could have given a better report of them. Sheffield News. A large crowd from here attended the Masonicpicnic at Mocksville Thursday.

AU Winter long Sydney Blair lived In a 6x10 room in a poor lodging liouse. He did light housekeeping, so light at times that heat, illumination and even food were under eclipse for days. It was then that he huddled close TUider the bedclothes daytimes, stealing out nights to gather up a few morsels In his unique way. He was a poet at soul. As to his ef fusions, only thrice in his life had he received real pay from a real publica tion. This had not broken him of the poetio habit, however. He watched the birthdays of people, great festal events, all kinds of occasions where an acrostic, a tribute, an eulogium would catch the fancy of the rich and bring in a few dollars for the effort. The present winter had been a hard one for poor Blair, however. He was obliged to write advertising doggerel, and this discouraged him. “Oh, for the time to hit the road!” he pined, and with the first venture some robin reported in the city parks the tramp poet began his annual hegira to the shrines of nature. Once a year his soul swelled. It was when, as now, he turned his face fr>m the turmoil, dust and hollow ex citement of the city. It seemed to him as though he was passing into a new life, as the sprouting grass of the coun tryside, the budding moss flowers, the f t Was Aroused by a Shriil Echoing Cry. nesting birds, the warbling brooks uni ted in a welcome to the passing way farer who loved them. Js5al Outside of a little bundle, usually strung across his stout walking stick and containing a change of linen and a blanket, Sydney Blair had one other possession of some utility and value. This was a piano tuning key. He was a natural musician, but the itinerant minstrel, caroling forth old-time lays, was a thing of the past. There were many pianos - in hamlets and farm houses. From the profession of poet In winter our good friend enacted a broad transition to piano tuner at sum- mertide. He was a dreamer, his physical wants limited. The heather formed a sweet-scented mattress,, it was delight to watch the stars across the curtain of night twinkle tired’'eyelids close. Sydney simply strolled, talking to the flowers, communing with free, grand soul thoughts, composing poetry he could not sell. It was a tender solace, however, to work over these and at night repeat them to himself. Once, at dusk-tide, Sydney, resting under a great gnarled oak, was aroused by a shrill echoing cry. He ran to wards the highway to observe three rough-seeming fellows disappearing in the dim distance. He stumbled over a prostrate form. It was, that of an old man. His face was bedabbled with blood. There was a cruel gash at one side of his head. A button hole of his vest was torn apart, showing where his watch chain had been torn from place. A pocket was turned inside out Evidently footpads had robbed this victim. Sydney ran to a brook near at hand. He soaked a handkerchief in water and did all he could to remove the traces of violence from the insensible man. Finally the latter sat up. He put his hand confusedly to his head, his eyes were somewhat glazed and unsteady as they surveyed Sydney. “See, here,” spoke the latter, “who are you and what has happened?” The victim seemed to make a des perate effort to concentrate his thoughts, failed' and shook his head blankly. “H’m!" soliloquized Sydney, “ a bad blow* See here, old friend, I must get' you to a doctor.” The victim placidly allowed Sydney to lead him to a nearby village. There a doctor looked him over, plastered up the wound; on his head and ques tioned him as to his home. “I don’t know,” was the monotonous response. Sydney had tuned a piano that day. He secured lodging for his charge. He himself slept in a haymow. With the morning the same cloud of haziness hung over the victim. AU that morn ing Sydney led him about the vicinity. No one knew him. He was an utter stranger to the district. . “See here," said Sydney, “what am I going to do w itt you? What do you want to do?” “Go with you,” replied the old man, simply. “I like the sunlight, Uie woods, the birds. I feel rested, I feel happy, only—I forget what was.” “AU right, I make you my partner," said Sydney. The old man grew quite blithe and talkative during the next day of idle wandering. He was like a pleased child. Some injury to his brain, it was apparent, had blotted out the past. Sydney observed that he was an edu cated man, his attire evidenced re spectability. There was not a mark on his clothing, not a scrap of paper found to give the slightest clue as to his identity. Every morning and evening, how ever, the old man took from an inner pocket an exquisite little medallion. It held the portrait of a beautiful girl. He would gaze at it raptly for nearly an hour. And then Sydney got to sharing his mute adoration. The fair, wistful features came to form an ideal In his mind. Like nomads those two passed along the flower-fringed by-ways. Bach day the old man seemed to grow happier and more contented with the careless, joyous life. One evening, while seated in a little wayside inn, Sydney struck up an ac quaintance with a physician. He told the story of the old man. The doctor became interested; He examined the patient. ‘'There is a depression of the skull,” he said. “This man’s memory can be restored by a surgical operation.” It would cost fifty dollars, the doc tor said, for he would have to call in a surgeon. Sydney made arrangements for the housing of his friend in the vil lage. Then he started out tuning pi anos. It was a glad, proud day for his good, kind heart when he returned with the money to pay for the operation. The doctor had predicted rightly. Tbe operation concluded, the old man rose up, a new intelligence in his face. He listened to the story of the doctor. His eyes were filled with gratitude and love as he was told of the noble sacri fice of the tramp poet. “Bring me a check book,” he said, “and a pen.” His apparent whim was gratified. He scratched out “Bank of Milton," substi tuted “State Bank of Wareham,” signed a name—Henry Morse—and handed the check to Sydney, filled in for five thousand dollars. Then came his story of visiting some land at a distance, of being assaulted and robbed. Sydney must accompany him home. A sorrowing daughter, who mourned him as dead, greeted him at his own palatial home. She was the original of the cherished por trait, Eva Morse. When all the beautiful story of the soulful fidelity of Sydney Blair to a stranger was told, gratitude shone in those lovely eyes. And then love, and in the golden days that passed by as a joyful dream the poet knew no more of loneliness, and deprivation, and neglect. (Copyright, 1914. by W. G. Chapman.)

Healthful Signs Are General Through- 0ut the Country—Results Will Be Seen in the Next Presiden tial Election. - ^ eDepublicans and the Progressives lgve formally united in Nebraska in He support of the same ticket. They ,till work for the same congressional candidate8 and they expect to carry all but one or two districts, if not every one in the state. Nebraska is especially out of tune with the pol- icv” of the Wilson administration in respect to the sugar tariff and the du ties on farm products, and the tide is running strongly against Bryan’s party in bis own state. Tlie harmony movement goes on naturally and convincingly in many states. It is general throughout tie country. There is every reason for predicting its complete success H more than enough districts to give tie Republicans control of the next louse of representatives. It will work out decisive results in more than the number of states required to elect the uext president. It is not the fruit trading and dick ering by party leaders of managers, but the outgrowth of a natural, spon taneous desire swaying many millions of voters. They are making union's fact, not for the sake^bf any party, primarily, but for the benefit and wel fare of the country and of their own interests as American citizens. See Democratic Defeat. "The complaint of the New York city congressmen because of the fail ure to get their share of patronage is not peculiar to New York,” said James J. Golden, a lawyer of California, at the Raleigh. “I have traveled through several states, East and West, and I found the same spirit of discontent. The only thing tllat ms>" sav^ the next house to the D er .is is the popularity of Speahter v.imkr and it is doubtful if even the stand of Clark and Underwood on great public ques tions can placate discontented Demo crats. Any member of the house who voted for the tolls repeal bill, except, of course, in those; southern states where nomination is equivalent to election, is doomed to defeat, as I Bee it.”—Washingtom Post. Providential Harvest. It Is fortunate for the country that in a year of Democratic misdeeds Providence has so bounteously blessed the soil that a near-billion-bushel wheat yield is probable;, with a total crop production to the .value of $10,- 000,000,000. That business has been disturbed greatly undier the Wilson regime cannot be denied, even though thn- president still persists in declar ing depression purely a psychological condition. Tariff revision lias been without beneficial result to the con sumer and hafi injured American in dustry by diminishing the domestic market for home products. The* re action has been felt by labor ar>d has oxtended to every branch of com mercial activity. Democratic Failure. The question ,of the high cost of Iking, on whilch the Democratic party bases its piesv for power in 1912, will aot down. H' the cost of living had been reduced, the party candidates might easily have explained away any impairment of employment or wages. Even with financial and business condi tions at their best, however, the ques tion might still be asked: “What was gained hy lowering the tariff?" The mmwer that the Democrats expected t° give us was: “The cost of living lJaa teen reduced.” Unfortunately, iowever, it has not been reduced, and * EurGpean. war will not tend to re- !tacefo. f Not a Leader.

NUMBER 6 .The Davie county Farmers’ Union Picnic will be held at Center, Satur day, Sept. 12th. A big crowd is ex pected. Senator Overman writes: “I shall be greatly pleased to meet the peo ple of Davie county on the occasion of the Farmers’ Annual Picnic and will give myself that pleasure pro vided Congress has adioumed at that time.” CongressmanPage has accepted the invitation to be present without qualification, saying that whether Congress adjourns or not, you may expect me. Other prominent speak ers have been invited. Let every body come and have a good time. Though this picnic is given under the auspices of The Farmers' Union, vet these Union people want it un derstood that this picnie is for ail the people, and everybody, of what ever calling or vocation, is cordially invited to come and enjoy the day. This, of course, is a basket picnic, and the people are requested to bring baskets. W herethisisnot conven ient, dinner can be had on the pay ment of a small sum. Let every body come. At one time it was contemplated to hold a fair in connection with the picnic, but owing to the dry weather and the shortage in the crops, the fair feature has been abandoned. There prevails to some extent an idea that the farmers want this pic nic to themselves. This is entirely a misconception. Nothing would please the farmers more than to have a fine turnout of their friends of other vocatfons. Remember the date, Sept. 12th. Can You Do It? Fool Killer. Say, Mister, here is a little job Iw ouldlikesorsom e man to un dertake; just to see how is works- out. If you want the job, I will give you the instructions. Here they are: You go out in your town or com munity, buy you a plot of ground and build a house on it. Put heavy bars on the windowB and heavy locks on the doors. Also build a strong high wall around your house. Then go out and en tice a gang of young woman into your prison and lock them up. and act iu other ways to arouse suspic ion that something is wrong about your institution. Then when the officers of the law come around, wanting to know what is going on inside, you tell them it is none of their blamed business. If they insist on going in to see for Chcmselves, you bristle up and tell them to keep out. Tell them that you are trying out some kind of a new-fangled religion in there and that they have no right to interfere with your religion. Now, Mister, do yon think you could pull off such a stunt as that and getaway with itl No, not to save.you from the devil. But the Roman Catholics are doing that very thing all over America today, and the officers of the law are not lifting a finger against it. Roman ism is. the only institution in America that can ruB a question able business under lock and key and compel the authorities of the law to keep out. WHY? .

If the E x Governor could, rise from his grave and hear the sound of the pistols and view with alarm the newly made graves, caused by the assassin’s hand, he perhaps would hang his in shame of the political party he once loved.—Clinton News Dispatch.

The people of Davie are getting tired of arrogance and ignorance running their affairs. It seems that one or two or our officers think that the county would go to tfce bow wows if they failed to inject their peanut ideas into every matter that comes up. The sooner they get this out of their heads the better for them and the people also. Take the road matters in the county, especi ally the location of the Highway. There never has been a cheaper frame-up in this county. Eight miles of this road, that portion from Farmington to Hall’s Ferry, stands out pre-eminently showing the hon or and business judgment of the Board. That one act has given Eas tern Davie county a blow- that she will not get over in 25 years, yet I learnthatthese self-same patriots are binding for the offices again. It is high time that the voters of the county awaken from their political lethargy and swat the self-agrandiz- ing politician. Go to your primary if it is called before the election and vote for clean men and wrench our county and Republican organization out of the hands of arrogance. IGNORANCE. Smith Grove News.

You are able to do work without constantly taking drill apart to regulate the action of the different parts. There are no chains to work loose or wear out.

Don't wait until potato-digging time to select your seed- potatoes—don’t I wait even until the vines are dead. Ii iyou do you are as liable to pick out {large potatoes from a small, undevel- joped hill as you are from a thrifty one. Right now, while the vines are in !full bloom and show which are vigor- | oils and productive, is the time for (marking the hills you will dig later for !seed. Small sticks driven beside the {choice hills serve this purpose very (well. Hiis insures seed that will propa gate sturdy plants next season. And remember, both large and small pota toes from a strong hill may he plant ed; but any size, either small or large from a puny hill—never! Use the same care and judgment in the selection of your seed- potatoes that you do in selecting other seeds and you will find it a little time very profitably spent USE FOR OLD SCRAP LUMBER It Is Profitable to T ake Good Care of the Little Pigs When Butcher's Stufr Is High. (By J. W. GRIFFIN.)One of the best ways to use scrap lumber is to build hog houses out of it If there is no lumber lying around In the way it will pay to buy new, even at the present high prices, and build the hog houses. If it pays to take care of the little pigs when the butcher’s stuff is bring ing four and five cents a pound, it is doubly profitable when they are eight or ten cents. We have ten Duroc Jersey brood sdws and ten colony houses, built and fenced off, as shown in the drawing. These houses were built out of lum ber that came out of an old frame building once used as a saw mill. I We bought the old mill, the frame of which was 33 feet wide, 100 feet long Colony Hog House. and two stories high; all the framing timbers were as good as when put in the building. The scrap lumber we worked into the hog' houses and the frame and the best lumber we used in building an up-to-date feed bam. Keep a Record. Get your record book properly head ed, then as each sow farrows write down how many and what kind of pigs she has. Watch them, see how many live and record this also. Then when another winter comes you will know which sows you want to keep and which you want to sell. Source of Profit. There never was a better profit for the young man who wants to use brains with muscle than now in the breeding of profitable dairy cows. He should not start unless he is deter mined to stick to it as a business for many years. Dog Refuses to Aid Law. Unable to decide the disputed own ership of a dog, Jlagistrate McQuade, in the New York "night court, left it to the dog. But doggie made the con fusion more confounded. Walking on Broadway; near Forty- second street, with the bull-terrier, Henry R. Stevens, of 127 West Forty- seventh street, felt the leash snatched out of his hand. Policeman Grogan stopped Frank Merado1 of 254 West Thirty-seventh street, with the terrier. : In the night court the terrier went to Merado, but just as he was being awarded by the court to the presumed owner the dog rushed to Stevens.

As a result partly of the widening influence of our agricultural colleges and partly of numerous co-operating agencies, a new set of ideals is being created with regard to country life. The nation as a whole, in fact, is making a re-estimatiop of rural life. With the coming of dear lands, city people have awakened to a new in terest in country affairs and a new respect for country inhabitants- There is before us in the United States the opportunity to develop pel* haps the finest type of rural civiliza tion that the world has ever known. The ownership of land In past ageq has always been most honorable, but the working of it has been regarded generally as degrading. The actual farmers, equipped with their poor, pitiable instruments, and condemned to unceasing and disheartening toil, have been slaves, serfs, heathen, pagans, boors, peasants. But today the use of machinery and new facilities for communication make it possible for the same individual to be a tiller of the soil and a gentleman.—William J. Trimble, in June Atlantic. Too Much for Him. Paul Ker, one of the principals in "The Midnight Girl,” was invited by an acquaintance who has the reputa tion of being a "tightwad” to a cafe in Longacre Square after the matinee, relates the New York Telegraph. It was not long before a party of con genial spirits were gathered about the festive board, and things went merrily until the hour drew near for Ker’s return to the theater for the evening performance. Thus far the aforementioned ac quaintance had managed to escape pay ing any of the checks and Ker deter mined that before the party broke up Mr. Tightwad should be forced to pay for at least on round. -Accordingly the waiter was instructed to hand him the next check. This was done and, find ing no evasion, he reluctantly paid and immediately left the cafe. As the door was opened a motor car tire blew out with a loud explosion. “Good Lord!” exclaimed Ker1 "he’s shot himself!” > Approaching the LimiL “Mrs. Henpeck seems to have her husband so well trained that he’d jump through a hoop if she held it up and gave him the word.” “It’s worse than that. She even makes him help her celebrate the an niversary of her marriage to her first husband.” Reminded. “What poem does that very thin woman with the low-cut waist, which is held up by two narrow straps over the shoulders, remind you of?” “Heavens! She doesn’t'remind me of any poem. .Does she you?” "Yes.
