' The founders of this republic trust­ ed the people: trusted in their wil­ lingness to accept and operate in­ telligently a form of government in which the people choose their repre jentatives to transact the public biisi „ess with the same care that they display in employing a physician or a schi ol teacher or a chemist to do fortlem something they have not the time to do for themselves. I jheassiimption is, on the part of !demagogues and doctrinaires, that whileit takes trained men, give their entire time and thought to the task, to run a private business successful, a n y man is competent to decide the details of puplic business, on the bas­ is of what the demagogue politicans a n d journalists tell him. Therefore they cr>: "Awav with representative government: away with the republi­ can form of government; subsitute direct or ‘pure’ democracy for it; any other form of government im­ plies distrust of the people.” Theideal form of government is I that in which the people choose their representatives to transact the pub­ lic business, holding them to accoun tability for their act, and judging them by the result of their decisions Irather than by the promises, held jut, as to the effect of IegeslaUye ind executive proceedings. This form of government fails to j function satisfactorily when the people fail ro scrutinize with suiB. cientcare the character, ability and beliefs of the man who presents him­ self as a candidate for public place. Thisisnofaultof form of govern­ ment, but of the people who fail. to take advantage of its opportunities and to discharge its dutieB.' Pcrhapsthis kind of government does not furnish the highway to the millennium. The people are rather suspicious, as the result of-hard expe­ rience, of what the millennium pro- misers. The people have discovered that the politicans who promised too much, deliver too little. Profuse promising is of itself a pretty clear sign of dishonesty. No bank which basa proper regard for its own sol­ vency issues loo many notes on its own credit. The Millenium will get here about •lie time the human race attainB per fection. Wedonot seem .tp.be in bailing distance of that conBUmmati- 0IiSet. Prubablywhen the- millen­ nium gets here, this world will end Wd the next one will begin. But of Murse demagogues and doctrinaires •ill continue to promise the millen* jmm and produce patent processes ■if bringing it to pass, just so lonjr they can sell the recipe either for Wtes or money.

Most platforms are; written as trot- lines are set, with a hook for each particular fish and the purpose of such platforms is to help the people just like the bait on the hooks is in tended to benefit the fish. The Deinocratic leaders of 19i0^re starting out on the old line of crying ifor “the people’s rule,” of outcry against “bossed” and 'machines,” and "invisible government”' of the Republican opposition. The' people experience just such' campaigns in 1912 .and 1916 conducted by the same crowd of politicians that still claims to be lying to figure out what it can do for the dearly beloved masses. What this collection of Ieadera has done for the people in six years of complete control of the national goy- erment' nobody knows: what they have done to the people everybody understands. . If you don’t think the people are to be trusted just stand by and watch, what Uiey do to the politicians who, professing to be anxious to confer on them “the hew freedom” and “the Iarirer life” and all the other frills of Wilsonism, have under the cam­ ouflage of musical rhetoric and alliterative phrases, fastened the yoke of autocracy upon them and piled upon their shoulders a ' burden of debt and high IiviBg cost and staggering governmental costs. The 'conditions resulting from six years of Wilsonism are borne by the people patiently only because they know. they are getting about what they ordered when they took the promises and professions of present day Democratic leadership seriously, and because they expect to cancel the order- by their ballots on Novem­ ber 2 nd.—National; Republican. Catholics and Politics. The National Catloiic Register has published an editorial that is going the rounds of the press that is calcu­ lated to do considerable harm to Bome of the politicians. We are amazed that aCatholic paper shonld be so indiscreet as to show its hand in the way. the Regester has done. For instance here is what it says about an official with whom we are all more or less familiar: Next to the -Presi­ dent, Hon ’-Joseph Tumulty. Knights of Clumbus thirty-third degree wield the political power of any man. in America. As a true Catholic he is exercising the great trust God has given into hjs hands for the glory of the holy church; Through his tact and holy .zeal be has created a warm friendship, between the Catholic churchand President Wilson togeth­ er with the Democratic party. Other Presidents. have feared the power of the holy church and have courted its support politically by granting it childish favors -which de ceive no one. But this is the first time in the history of the country whon the President and a great politi cal party have openly sought an equal and honest alliance with the Catholic church.” We read in the daily pap­ ers that the San Francisco Conventi­ on was opened with prayer bv P. L. Ryan, vicar-general of the Roman Catholic arch-diocese of San Francis­ co. There are plenty of ProteBtant ministers who could have been Becur ed to opentthis ConVehtion with pray er. But the ReRister boldly claims that^bave 90 per cent, of the Cath­ olic, vote is allied with the Democra* ti^ :part^, ThiB political leaders, however, are not afraid-of IoBing the ^rotrataiiit- ypte. They know that Uie ^thirilics put church above party ^ ^ & (;ttw y will throw their strengih to the party that will pro miei^and' provide more power to the fiitholicB.

While the Democrats, wefe session in San Francisco and before Co^ was nominated, The Cinciiiat ti En­ quirer published the: . following e’d^ itoial: Some Democrats art making a loud outcry to; the effect that Cox, if nominated,iwii! carry Ohio over Harding. ... ; v It is a' pretty; theory. But Pat­ rick Henry said on one momentous occasion that the only way we cair judge of the future is by the past. Is there‘anything; in the racofd of Warren G. Harding and James Cox before the people of Ohio to indicate that Cox- could carry Ohio over Harding this year? _ :! .There have been two elections in Ohio which may reasonably be tak­ en as a test of Harding’s strength with the voters. He ran for. gov­ ernor in 1910 against Judson Har^ mon and was beaten by 100,377 votes.'. Nineteen ten, however was a year of: disaster for the Republi­ can party all over the country. Those internal dessentions which culminated in the smashup of 1912 had already afflicted the party with paralysis.; Harding ran for the- ' Senate in 1914. . He won by 102,373 votes, and was far ahead of the rest of the State ticket', which won by majorities of about 30,000. Now what about Cox’s record? He first ran for Governor in 1912 against a divided -Republican party. His plurality over Robert B. Brown, the Republican candidate, was 166- 828. His vote, however, was less 6or£8o -thanthe combinedvote OfBroWnj Republican, and Garford1' Progressive. *■•. ' Cox ran again In 1914 and was beaten by Frank B, Wills.' Willis’s plurality was 19,170. - In 1916 Cox carried- the State over Wrnis by a majority, of 6,604. On the same day Woodrow Wilson carried the State over Hughes by 89,408. . The final contest between -Willis and Cox came two years ago. Cox won by 11,944 votes. . Willis carri­ ed the State outside of Hamiltou County, however, and would have won easily except for' his effort to the Repiiblicaus of Cincinati. Cox’s inojority in Hamilton .County was 16,065. • There iis nothing in the records since Harding and Cox ' became prominent in politics .to warrant t he "belief that Cox wottld have an advantage over Jiardiug Ohio this year. Harding’s one defeat came in a year when Republican victories were as scarce .as hen’s teeth. His showing in the Senatorial race in 1914 was far more impressive than any victory Cox has won in Ohio. Otir present Governor had a big. plurality iri' .i gi 2 when the Republi­ can Party was split in two. On other occasions he has draggedl a- long, winning by a narrow margin when he won at all. - Local Democrats are building up a legend about the invincibility of Jiminy Cox; That is well eiidugh. so far as San Prauciscb is concerned. We .should be delighted to 'Biave Ohio captured both nominated in 1920. But if Cox is notninated at San Francisco. iRepublicans peed not be praticularly ‘ alarmed over the result in Ohio .in November.— Cincinnati (Ojjjpi Enquirer. o---. • . ■ ’■—-rr- Sarely Arborvitae.

Mr. Elitor: - 1 have read with much interest Chief Justice Clark's able article on the law passed by the legislature of - 1919 exempting the stock, held by. the stockholder in cer­ tain coropations from.taxation; I can­ not say that I fully grasp the whole question, for he does not make it plain that the corporation pays taxes- on all its assets, both real and person­ al and upon its entire capital stock also, or that it deducts its liabilities from the capital stock and pays taxes SB the remainder. Now to me it ap­ pears that ,if a corporation is tax­ ed on its entire holdings—real and personal—and|then pay taxes on all its issued capital stock in addition, that it would be 'double taxation to make the stockholder pay tax oh the same stock.' I leave that question, and place before the people a tax­ ation that is an outrageand injustice to-the poor man who is trying to own ahome.'andjhould be wiped out if we wish' tOVencourage home owing and home buying I will use “A” and *.‘B” as the too partiea and show how oiir tax laws are used to pull taxes out of .sonielhing that does not exist to hurt of .the home buyer. .“A” owns 'a farm-worth $5000,00 and is paying tax on same, “B” is a tenant and haB saved u[|$1000.00 and wishes to buy a farm home. -‘‘B” goes to “A” and offers him 5000 OO for his farm. The trade is made and “B’’ pays “A" $1000 OO secured.by a real .estate morgage on the farm for balance of the purchase money. Now "A” has $1000.00 in cash and a $4000.00 note on which on which he pays tax, a total q£'$5000 .00 . ' B” is in posaesBi- on of the land and tax giving time he gives it in for tax-and is required to give itln for $5000 .00 . It is plain -that IheAand Btogetherhadbefore the.tr££tf“ was made $5000 OO in land and $1000 OO in cash, totalling $6060,- 00 upon which taxes were levied and paid, but in some unaccountable way after the trade is made A has $5000 in cash and note, and B has “$5000 in land making a' total of $10,000 actually the money of A and tbeland of B has by soihe.means, which I am unable to fathom, jumped up from $6000.00 to $10,000.00 and its just the same property as before the trade was made. In other words, the great Stateof IjIorth Carolina collects tax on $4000.00 worfh of property that does not exist. It’s a pure figment of the brain and the tax on that $4000 00 is collected from that poor tenant fanner who only had $1000 00 and has invested it in a $5000 00 farm'in which be has an equity of redemp­ tion, A having Utle to same until th3 $4000 00 mortgage and note is paid. Now I contend that if A pays the tax on the thousand dollar cash pay­ ment and on the 4'4000.00 note, B has only a $1000 00 interest in the farm and should not be penalized by being required to pay tax on the $4000 00 he oweB A being in the shoes of the corporation and paying tax on B’s $4000 00 note, why not place B in the shoes of the stockholder and allow him to pay tax only on what he actually owns in the farm, to wit; $1000 00 , when that is done the State gets taxes on $6000.00 worth of prop­ erty just tlie same as before the trade was made; and you are reliev­ ing the home buyer of an dnj ust burd-^ en placed upon him at a time when he needs all the help and ,encourag- m ent possible. We cannot keep men on the farms and encourage them to buy farms arid homes by any such unjust IawS and the quicker our law makers realize that such injustices are working to the hurt and injury of the^entiice citizenship of the State, such outtaggs will cease to'disgrace our stature books arid a helping hand pill be extended to; the farm and home buyer,' and I ai^-constriined to believe-that it ^ill be worth ^one thousand timef more'than Gov.Bick- llt’s constitutional amendmant ex- emptipg the'maney lenders 5 1-2 per cent note iirom taxation. I - vyas a- gainBt that proposition from the Srart and think we should be allowed to vote for its-repfai at tng coming electioa—for it is vicious class Iegis lation and helps the wrong man. E. H.

Where in the Bible do we find that the/miraculous power of the church, according to divine plan, was even to be with­ drawn. It is not to be found. We do find that such , power ex­ isted for sometime after the apos­ tolic age, but as worldiness^crept in the Holy Spirit withdrew and>jtist here, the devil, so subtile inifiisdeal- ings, makes us believe thatf such things are of God and stirs up our zeal mightily, but with the;:- result that our efforts are of naught-^-our works die, not being of GojJ.-. ’ Jesus says these things goeth not out but by prayer and fasting. Why! oli why! do we neglect the plain teaching of the Bible,- which we profess to follow and substitute ways and means of our own! We cannot serve God and niam- mon, nor does God want mammon to draw people to the church but Jesus says “If I be lifted up I will draw ail men unto me.” Again- he says "Teaching them to observe all things whatsoeverl have command­ ed you: and lo, I am with you' al- way, -even unto the end of- the world.” Note, he says, not things of thewortd, but whatsoeverthingS I have commanded you. This a Christian finds joy not in worldly amusements but in sacrifice and service for the Lord, which is more real and abiding than any joy the world can afford. Why then- do vve keep right on draggingthe causes so dear to our Master right in the dust of the world giving the devil one grand and glorious picnic, thwarting God’s plans and prolong­ ing the age of sorrow while there are those around the throne who cry out day and night, “How lipng, how long will the Bridegroom de­ lay his coming!” and the.'Holy Spirit remains to quicken, guide and help. Seach the Scripture, oh worldly Christian, and see if these things be not so. Mrs. W. C. .M. A Big Wheat Yield.

Why, folks, last yeajfjpfer hall a million people used eatonic • and found relief. This is the secret: Eatonic sim* ply takes up the excess acids, poisons and gases, and carries them right out of the body. Of course, when the cause' is removed, the sufferer gets well. Stomach/trouble causes about seventy non-organie diseases, so, if you are suffering any kind of misery, not feeling well, go right to your drug­ gist today and obtain a big box of eatonic; cost is a trifle.

Hickory township, which in Claudes the towns of Hickory, Brook- ford, Longview, West Hickory and Highland, had a population of 9,240 in 1910 and 12,990 in 1920, being the most populous township In the coun­ ty. Newton township, which includes the towng of Newton, Conover and Maiden, showed 5,921 in 1910 and 8,257 , in 1920. The population of the entire county is 33,839 as against 27,918, or a gain of 21 per eent. The townships outside of. Hickory and Newton barely held their Own, where­ as ^these made good gains during the past 10 years, showing that the growth in population was largeiy in the towns and cities.

Today he would change it. “In sports attire my lady goes,” would be more accurate. Wheth­ er of silk or whatever else, sports clothes have almost agllpsed other wear for summer days. Since women look for this cheerful apparel with so much avidity, creators of it are mak­ ing excursions In atl directions In search of original ideas. It seems that sports clothes fit In almost any­ where, and the task of designers lies In making them suited to all person­ alities. For young women they have an easy task; for older ones, they must add a flavor of dignity to sportive garments. Ai sports coat of some sort goes without saying In every complete sum­ mer outfit. This season finds black ones of flannel, of silk or velvet, or any other material that the designer may choose so long as he knows how to give it-the chic touches that make it sm a rt‘But there are legions of coats that are In colors, some of them going so far as to flaunt red in large open plaids. What makes sports clothes enticing Is their general jaun- tlness, but color plays a le»s impor­ tant part this season than In the carlv history of sports attire, dpsigueis ar­ rive at their results by more subtle means. There is pletfcy of color, however, for'those who find it becoming and it Is used wit'-, delightful artistry In some of' 'this season’s sports sets—a set being a skirt and overgarment of some sort.' In the picture above there is a skirt and smock of coarse natural linen. The skirt is short and full and plain. The long blouse has convenient three-quarter length sleeves and com­ fortable round neck. What puts I this smock on the map of the fashion world is the vivid embroidery about the bot­ tom of the smock which might of course be an applique of linen .

Figures of birds and. geometri­ cal forms take the place of floral motifs occasionally. • Unbleached domes­ tic will make a successful get of this kind. -The small, soft hat is made of narrow ribbon and has a little clus­ ter of yam flowers applied to the up­ per edge of the brim. Flat-heeled can­ vas shoes and lisle stockings finish this sports dress correctly. iiimiiiiiiimimmiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuii GEHING OUTSIDE THE WALLS iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiimmiiiiiiiimiimiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii OUTDOOR life has come into Its own, especially In . the lands of brief summers. Everyone appreciates the benefit^ and the charm of life out in the open air and modern homes are built to allow much time to be spent outside of walls. Even city dwellers, with no bit of garden or scrap of ground with a single tree, have learned to make the most of such porches as they may be blessed with and are mi­ grating to the roofs and converting them Into a semblance' of gardens. The family that has a porch at its disposal can almost live In the open air. Eiveryone gravitates toward It as toward an open fire In the winter time. It is a good-idea to furnish it for comfort and as attractively as: possible, including a table !for serving breakfast, lunch, or refreshments, when one has guests. The porch fur­ niture may be of-wicker or equally fashionable painted wood. Colors shlould be quiet and cool and a coat of enamel used as a finish. The house­ wife will, find this use of the porch for meals a great labor saving and an exhilarating chSoge. from the dining room. Insteod of llnen for the porch table there is a vogue for plain oil cloths, white or colored, cut Into cen­ ter pieces and dollies and painted or', stenciled In colors. They do away with the laundering of linen, saving the precious fabric, now so scarce as. well as saving labor. With vines and flowering plants a porch becomes a IovMy place and guests enjoy In For serving refreshments, colored- linen, the embroidered, unbleached sets, take the place of oil cloth sets, or pretty center pieces and dollies of cretonne with edges finished with crochet. If one is lucky enough to have a lawn, a terrace, a grape arbor or even so much as a single tree on a bit of grass covered ground, outdoor meals are. more than a treat served thereon and a luncheon allows one to enter­ tain a considerable number of guests with little service. Since the “cafete­ ria” idea has become a fad the duties 'of the hostess are limited. She decks out her table, provides It with food, sees that there are plenty of com­ fortable seats scattered about and leaves It to the guests to do much of their own serving. Those who are buiiding homes now are providing for dining out of doors with • an out-of-doors room of some sort or a porch, ample enough to allow a part of it to be used for this pur­ pose. Every porch that is large enough— and it need not be very large—should have a swinging couch. For solid com­ fort nothing equals i t ‘ Some' member of the family Is sure to be benefited by sleeping on It at night: It will at­ tract everyone, for the daytime nap; for, the pleasant twilight and evening hours. In. fact It fulfills the mission Of the porch,-- which is. to provide com­ fort. % Watch Your Steps. The importance of graceful walk-, ing never has been more evident than now. AU the styles In fashion are In­ tensely feminine, and It Is no exag­ geration to -say their success depends almost entirely on the way they are worn and carried. Draperies floating from the waist demand spring in the step and light feet that do not lag. Short Slee7es ore: lamentable, unless the arms and hands are. well formed and well kept, and there Is no. charm In the display of silk stockings unless thev ankles be slim.

For the backyard flock, kept to pro­ duce eggs only, it is not necessary to baxe hens of extra good standard quality. What breeders of standard poultry call choice utility hens are as good as any for egg production, and cost but little more Qian ordinary mongrels. Hens of this grade in the medium-sized breeds are usually a little under standard weights, and bave ,superficial faults—-as unsound­ ness of color, or irregularity of mark­ ings or of the shape of the comb— which In no way affect their laying capacity, but make them unfit for ex­ hibition and undesirable' for breeding purposes. When buying hens In person, par­ ticular attention should be given- to Good for Producing Eggs. the general condition—whether the bird seems vigorous and lively—and to the appearance of the comb and th e ' condition of the feet Healthy hens liave bright red combs and bright eyes, assert poultry specialists of the United States department of agricul­ ture. A slight paleness of the comb Ib simply an- Indication that the ben Is not laying at the time; but a bird whose comb has either a yellowish or a bluish cast should be rejected, for these are symptoms of internal disorders. The skin and scales of legs and toes should be smooth, and the soles of the feet soft and free from corns. DUST BATH VERY ESSENTIAL Best Results Cannot Be Expected If Hens Are Permitted to Become Overrun With Vermin.

Usually, there will be a place In the yard where the hens can dust themselves In the dry dirt. In the absence of such a place, a box about 2 feet square and containing ordinary road dust or fine dirt should be placed in the house.

CHAPTER I. Baln had been falling for five days u-ien I Srst saw Hartley bouse. The place had so much local distinction that a villnge not far from the estate was named Hartley, for It. Bren when drenched and dripping In a storm which had lasted for five days In late May, the spot was beau­ tiful and charming; It had antiquity, that rare thing In a nejv land. Its two thousand acres, handsomely arranged for decorative and agricultural pur­ poses, lay along the river bank, With ta indented and interesting littoral where the river was two miles wide. I had been an Interne In St. Julian’s hospital, ana at the dose of my last year Dr. Brownell had asked me If my arrangements would make It possible for me to undertake a case which he thonght might be profitable and In­ teresting to a young physician. It was that of Mr. Homer Sidney, the owner of Hartley house. "I never saw so strange a will to Jive," said the doctor when he dls- cnssed the circumstances with me. •The old man is indomitable. Por that reason he is interesting. He lives be­ cause he wills to live, for some tre­ mendous reason of which I know noth­ ing. It is enormous. You may live to see him die; I am afraid I shall not— and he Is seventy and I am fifty.” I decided to accept. It may have Meu professional weakness, but in ad­ dition to the financial certainty offered there was a professional ,interest aroused. If Dr. Brownell were at­ tracted by a human being's will to live there certainly was something Su-' perhnmnnly Interesting about that hu­ man being. The recollection of Hartley as I first sow it remains as an enduring Impression. The long downpour of rain had given the place a spiritual ac­ cent. One felt as If the soul were saturated. It is only occasionally In a normal mind that weather works a spiritual effect I thought my mind was qor- mal, but I felt the spiritual depres­ sion. The war from the station for thyee miles was through ordinary American small farm land. Then it changed ab- mptly. Antiquity began to show. The driver said we were In the Hartley grounds. I was so depressed by the rain, by my own uncertainty, by thinking over the decision I had made and seemed abont to regret, by the dismal pros- pects—or at least the uncertain pros- pects—that I should have been glad for any sustaining human association. At the end of my Journey I soon found tnch association and was thereafter Auppy In it, but approaching the place I was apprehensive. My. driver had Aeen1 if not unapproachable, at least stupid and dismal. It somewhat astonished me when snddenly he began to talk. We were then about a half mile from the house. nI wish you had come an hour earlier,” he said. I’lVhy?” I asked. ' u “'’m not a coward,” said the driver, —at least; no more than usual, but I don’t like to be In here alone, and Tvo got to go home alone.” In a fashion he expressed what might have been my mood if I had hnown more of the place. I could sympathize with him. The rain had done this for me. “'Vhat have you to be afraid of?” I asked. "Is something haunted around here 7” It seemed as If so beautiful a spot ought to have this In­ terest. He stopped his horse. 'Tm going back out of here like a 8«»red pig,” he said, “—that is, if the •Id horse can stand It. But you're go- mg to live here for a while, and I’ll •top a minute to show you where they saT Ike ghost walks.” ' 3« Pointed to where the river had •Men a substantial bit out of the bank, wing a pool or tiny bay. The road. . ,orvinS toward the river here, ,was "‘thin thirty feet of i t ; . it isn’t natural for a man to kill ms brother,” said my driver, “and something unnatural comes of Ifc A h kilted his brother there, and some- wh*8Utmatvtral ha® come of Ifc That’s m be ^ust as well.satisfied to you to the bouse and myself back , 0 here before dark;” Ilk. nlonS' then,” I said, “It looks *0 ordinary place to me.” / 0 me too,” said my driver. “And I don’t want it ever* to look extraor­ dinary.” “Who was killed there?" Tasked. “You’ll learn the story soon enough,” said the driver, “if you’re going to stay in- this house.v You’ll learn it better than I can tell you.” At the great coach entrance of the Old house I paid the driver and let him go. He was anxious to be gone. It was growing dark. Then I began ring­ ing the bell. At the third ringing there was a re­ sponse, In the form of a servant, a man, butler or doorman, past middle age. He was crusty. “What do you want?” he asked; I explained that I was Dr. Michel- son and wanted nothing that I was not wanted for. I did not like his manner and was Viot inclined to Ignore it or to propitiate him as ordinarily f>ne would. He had, at first sight, an ex­ traordinary power of exasperation. At the time I did not understand my weakness, hut afterward I did. The man was abnormal as an irritant. Thus my appearance at Hartley house was so unfortunate that if the servant’s contumacy and my resent-, m.ent had had another moment, the door would have been slammed In my face and I should have been walking back to Hartley station. At that hesi­ tant moment In my fortunes, a wom­ an’s voice intervened. " , “Jed,” it said, “who’s there?” The servant opened the door wider, 1>nd I saw a lady, a South American, I thought. “I am Dr. Michelson.” I said. “Yes, doctor,” she replied, “we have been expecting you. I am Mrs. Sidney. Where is your baggage?” “I have only a handbag with me here,” I said. “Come In,” she said, "Jed will take it’ He did, but made me see the ill na­ ture of his reception of ine and of his duty. He had also, at the direction of Mrs. Sidney, to show me to my quarters. “Jed,’-’ I said, in my room, “we have not made the best start for two people i r T l IOMM “A Dollar Won’t Make You Welcome,” He Said, and Laft Me Looking at the Coin In.My Hand, who may have to live together for some time.” I offered him a dollar as a peace offering. “Are you going to stay here?” he asked. “I am supposed to,” I said. "A dollar won’t make you welcome," he said, and left me looking at the coin In my hand. I was called to dinner and had It alone In a. large diaing room. When I had finished a maid told me that Mr. Sidney would be glad to see me if it were convenient for me—that he did not need me professionally, but' that socially he would be delighted if .I could come to him. He was sitting in a large arm chair In-Ja great room with a great fire­ place. Later I perceived the fascinat­ ing details of the room,Ibnt just then Mr. Sidney had all my attention. Dr. SrownelI had’told me of the re­ markable WlU to'llve which I should find. It was instantly apparent. The old man was wonderfully alive. He was abrupt but smilingly and charm­ ingly courteous: We talked for a quar­ ter of an hour, casually. Then he said: “I know you are tired, doctor.” “Not at aU,” I said, interested to see more of him if I might. . “That’s your good nature,” he. said. “And we certainly do not want to wear you out In one day. We only wanted to see you. We shall get better ac­ quainted,, and we hope JiouTI like us and be comfortable and happy here. We have a fashion of trying to be bappy.'We are going to- say good night and allow you to settle yourself to new surroundings In privacy. It Is the kindest thing we can H o.' Jed will show ’you to your room. Jed, take care of D r.' Michelson. Good night, doctor.” ' . Mrs. Sidney stood beside'Mr. Sidney -as he > was speaking. I had thought at first seeing her that she had been very beautiful and. that now she was very unhappy. • Seeing her again, I retained my first impressions. Jed preceded.me through corridors to my door and left me surlily. As he closed the door I thought I heard an­ other sound than that Of the clicking of the latch. I bad. It was the throw­ ing of a bolt on the outside: Jed had locked me in. I made sure of this by trying the door. It could not be opened. Here was an astonishing sit­ uation for a first night in a place. My Impulse was to make a noise and ask for an explanation, but on second thought I did not. My room was on the second floor, and I saw, looking out of the window, that it would not be impossible to make a descent on the outside in an emergency. I de­ cided not to begin my stay with a pro­ test against any habits of the house or occurrences in it. In the night I was awakened out of a sound sleep with an Idea that I had been disturbed by noises, but nothing I could hear sustained it, and I went to sleep again. I-was up early, dressed and found that my door had been unbolted. I examined the outside of it for a bolt and had difficulty in finding one, so ingeniously had it been concealetk-The knob seemed a part of the decoration of the panel, and the bolt was of thin steel. I found it only by finding the socket into which it could be shot. The rain had stopped, and although: the woods were dripping,' there was a glorious, radiant sunlight., The effect was exhilarating. It worked a spiritual change. Man, said the morning, was made to be happy. Exulting In pleasant emotions, I let myself out of the main door and re­ joiced In the beauty of the place and the moment. -I took a sshort walk across the lawn toward the woods. A gardener asked me if I were the new doctor and said if I had leisure .during the day he wished I would come to. the cottage beyond the gardens. His Infant had a cough. The house was astir when I re­ entered. ’ Jed was the first person I saw, and to my astonishment he was not only civil but pleasant and candid. “Did you have a fair night, doctor?” he asked. “Sometimes a first night in a new place is disturbed, and I owe yog apologies. We have had here oc­ casion at times for locking doors on the outride as well as on the inside, and last night I forgot myself and threw the bolt of your door. I am oc­ casionally in liquor, and last night I had a touch too much.” . I smiled at his candor and said something jokingly in comment. “A servant can’t be blamed, doctor, for that,” he said, “if his master leads him into Ifc We have coffee before breakfast. Fll serve you anywhere. The morning papers are in tha library. There’s a porch off it with a good view. It’s my favorite, spot of a morn­ ing. I recommend that you have your cbffee there.” . His friendliness was amusing, but I found his suggestion good, and being fond of coffee, enjoyed it with a half hour of magnificent view and a cigar- ette. The morning was odorous after the rain. The house was a Charming struc­ tural disorder of L’s . and wings, porches and balconies. It was very old, and one could see where different generations had contributed to its growth. The walls were backgrounds for hollyhocks or support for climbing roses cr ivy. It had plenty of sun­ light, but dense white oak woods came close up. I held myself in readiness to attend my patient at his convenience, but it was ten o’clock before I was sum­ moned. Mr. Sidney was pleasant and animated,. “We must arrive at a schedule," I suggested. - “This Is a little too late in the day to satisfy Dr. Brownell’s ideas of what my duties are.” “But, my dear doctor," he said, "I do not wake until nine. I need my sleep. I do not go to sleep until one.” “I should advise early hours," I said. "Of course, you wopld, but you must remember that you are dealing with a man, at the end of his life, trying to make the most of it. I like to remain awake late" “Then you must,” I said. “I shall consider it settled to see you at ten.” “And, I hope sometimes to sit up with me until one Do you like chess?” “I never played,” - “Luckily, Jed does, just, well enough to Interest me and have me beat him. Do you like wine?” “A young doctor does not drink." . “Luckily, Jecl does. It is a great satisfaction'to hagg some one whom you can beat at chess and whom you can see enjoying wine- Doctor, I have yielded to my friend Brownell’s " de­ mand for constant, attention, but as you can-lsee, there will not be a great deal for a physician to do. Feat well, I sleep well, and so long as my sensa­ tions are pleasant, I want to live. They are not always pleasant, but.mostly they are-so. Fd like to have you as a new friend In the house. .I-like to be talked to. I like to be read to. Will you relax and.be just a friend?" “With pleasure," I said, “so long as nothing. Interferes with the physician.” I1Thafs a .bargain,” he said.- .“At three o’clock this afternoon .you Shall read to 1 During my spare time I walked about the grounds. A part of the es­ tate, about thirty acres, which seemed to be. architecturally intimate and re­ lated to the house, was completely In­ closed by a' twelve-foot brick wall sur­ mounted by sharp spikes. It was built beyond the river's edge, and was con­ tinued out into the water in a heavily buttressed fashion. Only a good swim­ mer could have rounded it and come into the place. It looked like a care­ fully but strangely designed protection. In the dog kennels were mastiffs and a number of Airedales. I said to Jed that it seemed as if precautions had been taken against a perceived danger. He had been affable during the day, but his face clouded instantly. “The wall was here when Mr. Sid­ ney bought the place, but we are in a way isolated,” he said shortly. “It is reasonable to’ take precautions. It will be-a precaution for you not to go roam­ ing the grounds at night. The dogs are not friendly then.” His surliness was easily passed over, was good humored and wished to prove it. 11I have heard of the haunted bay,” I said. “What is its story?" 1Every fool in and about the place talks of that," he said. “You’ll get too much of the story only too soon. But that isn’t why we have the dogs. We don’t take any stock In ghosts In this house.” He was offended and went away. At three o’clock I saw my patient again, and he wanted me to read to him. I read to him for an hour. Tten he took a nap. I had been told that any time I wanted to go to. town I might tell one of the chauffeurs to take me. I needed a thin file for the bolt on my door. It annoyed me. I did not ask that who­ ever threw it at night should know that it was gone. It-suited my pur­ poses better that it should be gone and the person who used it should think It was still there. Therefore, after reading to Mr. Sidney I went to town for a thin file. I got my file, and for greater so­ ciability on the return trip I took the seat beside Charles, the driver. „ As we passed the pool, Charles re­ ferred to it. “What is it?" I asked. 11WhaFs the story?” j “A man killed his brother there," said Charles. “He Is now in the pen­ itentiary at Alwick for life. HlS brother’s ghost, they say, comes back. Fve never seen it, but some people say they have.” “Who were the brothers?” I asked. “They were the sons of the people who used -to own this place—the Dobsons.” He did not say anything more of it and I did not question him. I used .the file , on my bolt, leaving one end of it in the socket It could be thrown, but it could not bar the door. (TO BK CONTINUED.)

HUNTING THE SPERM WHALE One Taken Off West Coast of Scotland Realized Five Thousand Clollars - for Its Captore. A graphic account of the hunting and MlUng of a sperm whale is told by one who took part In i t Starting from the west coast of Scotland the whaler made for Rockall, a lonely granite pinnacle that juts out of the Atlantic about two hundred miles west of ithe Outer Hebrides. Why the whales go there is a mystery, but In early summer schools of them may be found in the neighborhood. The look­ out soon spies a “blow,” that is the fountain ejected by the whale as it comes to the surface to breathe. Away goes the whaler In pursuit. After some tense maneuvering the whaler gets into suitable position, the skipper 'takes aim, fires hla harpoon gun and a harpoon Is embedded in the mon­ ster’s body. The whale disappears taking yards of hemp line with him. Presently he rises to blow again, and immediately a second harpoon is fired at him and he goes down with yards of cable rattling overboard. About fifty minutes later he floats on the surface of the witer, quite dead. Immediately the sailors fall upon him. "Air Is pumped into the carcass to make it buoyant, his flukes are trimmed off, so that he will float In tow. and the whaler makes for Scot­ land again, with a host of screaming birds In her rear. This particular whale realized five thousand dollars. .It was a full-grown sperm, about sixty feet long. I your Blood Medicine and three of my friends are taking them to advantage.

The message declared that the ‘home loving women of the ■ south, who do ‘not’ picket, ca!rd-index or blackmail candidates, appeal to you as the leader of the democratic party to grant us a hearing not on woman suffrage, which any state can adopt for itself without changing a comma of the federal constitution, but on two fundamental principles, state ' rights, and party honor.” The suffrage plank in the demo­ cratic platform was declared to con­ demn the women of the south and the majority of the women of the country without a hearing and was characterized as a . “studied insult to the women of the south.” “Is the south to understand that the democratic party, whose , very ex­ istence is due to the loyalty of the south, now intends to treat with ut­ ter contempt those who have lifted it to power?” the appeal questioned. Declaring that the south was “fully aware that it can expect no mercy if this amendment is ratified.” ■ Governor Cox was entreated to ex­ tend to southern women “seeking neither votes nor offices” fair consid­ eration.

Washington. — Victory for soviet Russsla over Poland would result Vi bolshevism sweeping all of Buraps and eventually the entire world- is the opinion of General Eric Luden- dorff, the famous German war leader.

N6t even the seven seas can stpp it.” Addressing himself to the "civiliz- nations as a man who !mows war,” General Ludendorff pleads that his message “not” fall on deaf ear3. “Then, it will be too late,” he de Clares, and the present civilization will crumble as did that of Greece and Rome. And the cause will be the obtuseness of government and the iethargy of the burgeoise. Three Railroads Secure Loans Aggregating About $19,000,000.

AUGUST 11, 1910.NUMBER S Not Over Enthusiastic. | The esteemed Raleigh News and Observer is manifestly not enthusi­ astic as yet over the nom ination of Cox and Roosevelt. In a recent editorial discussion of the two Demo-I eratic candidates it sets forth reas- | ons why it thinks they will he elect- I el bull’expresses* no joy over the prospect and indulges in no ful-1 some praise of their virturs. They' were the choice according to the .1OH Reliable” of the German and Irisit elements in Chicago, Cleve­ land and Cihciunati and they are expected to put their candidate a- cross the line; Mr. Hryau a few weeks ago said that Cox had been identified with the liquor forces all of his life and that he was more objectionable, as a candidate than Governor Edwards himself. Thisisprobably the opin­ ion of leading prohibitionists every­ where and the News apd Observer is certainly in that class The truth is that there is a big difference between Northern and Southern Democrats. This is true' not only of the liquor question but of other questions as well. We cheerfully admit that we think the Southern Democrat with all his faults is lietter than his Northern i brother. The unspeakable corrup­ tion often practiced by the Demo­ cracy of New York, Chicagoand other big Cities does not exist in the South. Down here they may Steal j a few votes occasionally but they do I not levy tribute on brothels and gambling houses.—Beaufort News. Listen At Henry. Henry Ford, in the' of his paper I July 17th has the follpwingto say Ufthenatinal Democratic conven- ; Iioi held in San Francisco: "The hand of the defunct, dis­ graceful whisky business was heavy upon men who controlled that con­ vention. Paid agents, who were both public officials and private re­ tainers, were in] evidence every­ where. There was no question, not even the League of nations, which received the slavish attention which booze received. The whole con­ vention resembled more a ‘ ‘hang over" from the saloon regime than a gatheriug of American citizens selected to formulate policies for the solution of the problems which harass the nation and the world.” And this is the same John Henry whom Wilson elected to the United State Senate over Newberry. . 1 That Revaluation AcL One house we know of in a small city was assessed at $1,200 last year mid Slate and county tax was less than $40. Now it is assessed at $5,- 900 and the rent remains the same, and tax at same rate next year will I* $210, Wliat are you going to do about ii, brethren. Bickett says if you don”,,believe in this assessment, ‘you are a liar and the truth is not in you.11 By the eternal and internal, too, we know what you ouSllt to do. Just vote and put Kckelt and his dynasty but. You can’t put them to . work, if what Jadge Clark intimates is so Bickett "dll feather his nest right.—Garton Times. Candidates And Papers.

Will they give us school books-'and school reform, the Australian ballot, woman suff­ rage, and last and greatest will they repeal the infernal Bickett1 s Revalu­ ation Act? Well, for one we say if they do not give us each and every one of those things without any jokers, or strings tied to them we will vote in a set of men who will. ■ Judge Clark says if the people will give the command we will be obeyed. It is true the Greensboro News said last winter we were a set of fools (in so many words) and did not belong to the best class, etc.. Yet we think we will have sense enough 'to vote without ad­ vice of any politicians or news­ papers, especially one that claims to be independent, and yet is inde­ pendant (or dependant) all for the Bickett machine.

The Democratic Monroe Jouihal says it “will receive scant applause in Monroe, where he is known to be a man of high, char­ acter and integrity. He may have been in error in his statements re­ lative to the railroad assessment un der the revaluation act—we ratner think he is—but he is usiijg Democra­ tic authority for the basis of his al­ legation.- Judge Pell should have struck at the root of this charge by questioning the statement of Mr. Bailey, who was the authority for the charge made by Mr, Parker, when it was first.published, and not have waited until the Monroe man had an opportunity to give it wide publici ty in his speeches.

The Pace That Kills. - The accident is about the common­ est item in the newspapers. The machines avfi smashing more people than all other means of locomotion combined,, including trains, airships, and mules. It. is no doubt finely ex­ hilarating to race through the coun­ try at 30 miles per hour, to jump railroads crossings wi thout stopping, Iooding or listening, to round -.sharp curves on two wheels, and to pay no attention to sand banks and greasy places in the road ' The rush of the sweet, cool air through one’s hair the admiring gaze - of awestruck maidens as'ybu fly, and the reaching of your destination on unheard of time-make. the blood tingle, and the nerves jingle, and the cheeks ruddy and girls wonder. But the price is high. It is too often scrapped ma­ chinery, broken backs and death. You can’t drive a mule fast enough to make him fall down and kill him­ self. The average chaffeur' hasn’t as much sense as a mule. —Danbury Reporter 1 Our Coffee Bill. In the old and sinful days the pro hibitionorato s told us how many million dollars wtre spent for strong drinks and how many useful and worth'while things the same millions would buy if no. Btrohg drinks was made.and sold. Now that'the traffic in alcohol is legally debarred some body with an itch for figuring has discovered that the people of the United States are paying over a mil­ lion dollars a day for coffee. Trade authorities say we are not only im porting 42 per cent more coffee than Iastyear butare paying nearly dou­ ble last year's price the average im­ prove price having increased 80 per cent. The import value of coffee for the fiscal year is over $3000,000 , 000 and the added of freight, roast­ ing and distribution makes the aver­ age for the year iflore' than a million dollars a day, against about one-third that sum two years ago. The in­ crease comsumptiofi'of coffee is be­ lieve to be partially the result of the prohibition of the liquor traffic. Coffee is harmless, if not beneficial for most people and there is no at­ tempt to put it in the whiskey ciass in its effecton the physical or men tal powers. But it is a luxury, not a necessity. Qne can get on with­ out it and in many cases is better off without it just as one can do with out tobacco and in many cases is help­ ed by “omitting the use of the weed. Is it not order for the statistician to view with alarm the million dollars a day wasted on a useless if not harmful drink? Think how much the race conid be benefited if that million a day were expended for re­ ligious and social service work, for instance. Then if we would save the millions and mill101?3 we spend for tobacco.—But that would interfere with business here in North Carolina!

Is Greatest Plane Motor in World Most Powerful Airplane Engine Ever Built in United States Made in Detroit. INTENDED FOD GENERAL DSE Capable- of Driving Machine at 200 Miles an Hour, Says Designer, One of Liberty Motor Cre­ ators—Is Fireproof. Detroit.—A new 300-600 horsepower airplane engine, the most powerful ever built In' this country and the most powerful in the world except for a few racing freaks, has been completed here. It is expected to develop speeds far greater than anything yet achieved. In addition it is fireproof, and it can be started “cold” after a long dive, thus ending two of the greatest dangers that aviators have had to face. This announcement was authorized by Col. Jesse G. Vincent, designer of New Type of War Craft Developed — I ©Kadel #f Hcrbed' The latest development In war craft Is that of a mother ship for mine Jcrs that Is also a battleship. It carries 12 small mine layers on specially- Iistrueted steel beds. Huge cranes which lift the mine layers bodily out of j 6 "filer are on both sides of the vesse* the engine, who Is known as one of the creators of the Liberty motor. The new engine, in spite of its great power, Is no freak. It is intended for steady, long-time service, either for heavy duty or for great speed, and Is designed for American quantity pro­ duction methods. Made for General Use. While the men who are handling the new engine expect that it will push a plane at least 200 miles an hour, the engine was not designed for this pur­ pose alone, and Is capable of wide and general use. It- weighs only 1.94 pounds per horsepower. The lessons which Colonel Vincent learned during the war in his study of the actual performance of the Liberty motor, as well as of the best makes from both allied and enemy countries, are embodied in this design, and as a result there are several notable ad­ vances. Most important is that the motor Is fireproof for all civil purposes. This has been attained by putting the car­ buretor below and outside of the crank case, with all vents outside the cow­ ling so that thfire is no possibility of conflagration from a back fire. This arrangement also has the advantages that it gives gravity feed, thereby eliminating the weight of extra piping and of the feed pump, and that It makes the carburetor much more ac­ cessible. Exhaust Valves Changed. Another change has been in provid­ ing two inlet and two exhaust valves for each cylinder, instead of one. The result has been a bigger and steadier flow of gas to the cylinders, and a very high mean effective pressure even at great speed. A double finger valve 'lift is used, and this permits changes in the cam-shaft and rocker-arm me­ chanism which make this engine much superior to any predecessor In the troublesome matter of leakage from the cam-shaft housing. A third change is in the use of a single duplex carburetor, instead of the usual two carburetors. The diffi­ culty of synchronizing the throttle and altitude controls of two carburetors has always been a bugbear to aviators, but it had been felt that two or more were necessary to give the requisite flow of gas. It has been found in the tests, however, that this single duplex gives splendid economy and other de­ tails which, In the opinion of Colonel Vincent, fully Justify the design. He predicts that it will promptly become a universal practice with airplane en­ gineers. H L REPORT BT IEB SR GOTTON PRICES PAID FOR 1919 CROP HIGHER THAN WAS PAID IN FIFTY-THREE YEARS.

But she was delighted to lieitr the news and questioned him eagerly about it. “How many clothes closets are there, Henry.” she demanded. “There are six.” replied the man. proudly. “But that’s hardly enough.

B. Loats, writing from his home at Lay, Md., says, “I lfud been taking medicine from four specialists, but believe me, friends, one box of eatonic has done me more good than all the remedies I have ever tried. I was in awftilly bad shape. About half an hour before meals, I got nerv­ ous, trembling and heart pressure so bad I could hardly walk or talk. One box of eatonic stopped if.” Eatonic quickly produces these tru­ ly marvelous results, because it takes tip the poisons and gases and car­ ries them right out of the body. Of course, when the cause is removed, the sufferer gets well. Everyone that wants better health is told to have just a little faith—enough to try one box of eatonic from your own druggist.

Judging from reports from druggists who are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr, Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success. An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on the subject, made the as­tonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are rv ; jected is because kidney trouble is eo' common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applica­ tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. It is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, • medium and large.However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N.

Augnst 2, that thousands of Japanese are smuggled into the United States from Japan yearly, is giving evidences of a tendency to in­ crease the feeling with regard to the United States created by the arrival of-the recent American note and sub­ sequent newspaper attacks against America. The foreign office made the following statement: “We can only express surprise at the extraordinary statement made by Congressman Johnson at Tacoma. Details of the scheme, as outlined, by Mr. Johnson, appear fantastic and most improbable. While solitary cases of smuggling come to our no­ tice from time to time, it is unimagin­ able that such an involved and intri­ cate program as described by Mr. Johnson should be systematically practiced by any group of individuals or organization. “The Japanese government would gladly co-operate with the American government in exposing any such ille­ gitimate and underhanded system. It is hoped that Mr. Johnson will give the names of the bank, associations or individuals concerned. All such in­ formation must be in the hands of Mr. Johnson, who otherwise would not have made the statement.” Paris.—Warsaw will have 'to be evacuated within two or three days, in the opinion of the French and British military experts there, and the government is expecffed to be moved within that period, probably to Cra­ cow.

This river was Warsaw’s last line of defense.

The experts reported that the Polish forces were demoralized on the whole northern and central fronts.

DENAi IO HI IS OERISED BT BEDS WHEN CAPTURED, WARSAW WILL BE LOOTED BY BOLSHEVIK SOLDIERS, IT IS SAID. GERMlT WILL GIVE NO HELP Preparations Being- Made by Huns to Stop by Force of Arms Invasion of Territory by Allied Troops. London.—The Russian soviet’s re­ ply to Great Britain’s call for a halt of the bolshevik advance in Poland is a refusal, according to the London Times. The newspaper says the ground taken is that the armies would not obey an order to halt, and will only be content when they reach Warsaw, which has been promised to them for loot. The German government is deter­ mined to prevent by all means the entente from sending troops through Germany to help Poland, according to a declaration made in the Reichstag by Dr; W alter Simons, the foreign minis­ ter. Dr. Simons intimated that if the necessity arose, Germany would fight to prevent such a “violation” of Ger­ man territory. London.—AU advices indicate that the sTuation in Poland, from the Polish-allied standpoint, is approach­ ing a crisis. The Polish delegation, which went to Baranovitchi to negotiate an armis­ tice, not only failed to obtain terms from the Russians, but was sent back to Warsaw by the 'soviet authorities, who demanded that the emissaries ob­ tain a mandate to take up peace nego- tations. This will delay even the be­ ginning of the armistice negotiations. Meanwhile, the resistance of the Polish army, which apparently had been stiffening, has again relaxed un­ der the tremendous pressure of the bolshevik armies. - Warsaw, from which the Russians now are only 60 miles distant, seems critically menac­ ed, if not doomed, to capture. Ameri­ cans remaining there have received official intimation that they stay at their own risk. Coincident with the serious military developments comes an announce­ ment from Moscow that a soviet gov­ ernment has been set up in the por­ tions of Poland which bolsheviki have overrun.

I a w m m JT IS certain that one-piece dresses for street wear are to rival suits during the coming fall and winter, and they may achieve leadership in the be­ ginning of the season. Quite as cer­ tainly every fall wardrobe will con­ tain one or more of these neat, con­ venient and economical garments. They are of the same character as suits, made of the same materials and adorned with the same trimmings. This makes it easy for the thrifty to convert a last year’s suit Into a this year’s dress. An ingenious seamstress enjoys this remodeling of gowns and will find a variety of styles, ranging from very plain dresses to those that allow touches of bright color and the introduction of clever draperies, which she can follow in her work. It is refreshing to have these changes in everyday clothes and substitutes for suits. Combinations of two materials, as satin tmd wool In the same color, solve the problem of sufficient material in made-over dresses. The frock shown here will hardly tax the abilities of the average seam­ stress. Its skirt is straight-hanging, with rows of silk braid encircling it at intervals of about five inches and ma­ chine stitched, on one edge, to place. It is joined to a plain bodice at the waistline and has a narrow panel set on at the left side over the ends of the braid. S«.tin covered, round but­ tons, set on In pairs, make a telling finish for this panel and the skirt may be taken as a criterion as to length. The bodice has several details that are. interesting. It opens at the side and on the shoulder, closing with snap fasteners. The sleeves are 'a little longer than elbow length and depend upon braid for their adornment, hav­ ing no cuffs. Braid redeems tlie low­ er part of the bodice from uninterest­ ing plainness and a close-set row of small satin-covered buttons extends from the braid to the throat. The col­ lar is very nejv, being a wide ruche of accordion plaited material like tlie dress, banded by a tie of narrow rib­ bon finished with a rosette at the left side. A wide girdle ig made of satin ribbon having a single long loop at the back, but tlie girdle may be ,of the same material as the dress and fin­ ished at the left side,- where it fastens with satin-covered buttons. This is a little more practical than a sash end. What Late Summer Discloses a / w Vrv*ttVvV I ~y. ■VH % ONE thing distinguishes this par­ ticular summer from others that have recently preceded it, and that thing Is its late summer millinery, Au­ gust discloses hats that have no hint of autumn in then!, hats that belong to the heart of summertime aud none that are out of tune with it.

RAYMOND Illu stra te d b y IRWIN MYERS I SOBELl Synopsis. — Dr. John 'M lchelson, Just beginning his career, becomes resident physician and companion of H om er Sidney a t H artley house. Mr. Sidney is an American, a semi­ invalid, old and rich and very de­ sirous to live. Mrs. Sidney is a Spanish woman, dignified and reti­ cent. Jed, the butler, acts like a privileged member of the fam ily. H artley house is a fine old Isolated country place, with & m urder story, a “haunted pool,” and m any w atch­ dogs, and an atm osphere o f niys- tery. The "haunted pool” is where R ichard Dobson, son of a form er owner of H artley house, had killed his brother, A rthur Dobson. Jed begins operations by locking the doctor in his 'room the very first night. Os CHAPTER II. That evening T had dinner with Mrs. Sidney and her daughter Isobel. I had been in the house twenty-four hours and did not know there was a daugh­ ter until dinner'brought the three of us together. Mrs. Sidney was Spanish. She was a lovely woman, gracious and charm­ ing, bat I thought there was a great deal of steel hidden in her disposition. She did not seem to ask that life be soft or to expect to find it so. She had a Roman dignity'of self respect which did not, I could be sure, permit moaning. It would not have taxed any one’s perceptions to recognize In Mrs. Sidney a human being living an ex­ traordinary life. The fact was so ap­ parent that it seemed a part of her personality. It must be remembered that I had come to Hartley house prepared for abnormalities. There was first, the man with the wonderful will to live which had interested Dr. Brownell. There was the alien beauty of the house, the strange servant Jed, the haunted pool—Insignificant as it was, to a rational being—the lovely woman who was so apparently a tragic figure. There was the fact of my being locked In my room the first night. There were the forbidding defences of the place—walls, dogs and keepers. I may be excused for taking a fanciful view, of my new surroundings. " Then there was Miss Sidney—IsobeL She came into the dining room-an un­ expected If not astonishing phenome­ non to me, who did not know that there was a daughter In the family. Mrs. Sidney presented me. “How do you do?” said Miss Sidney, and she seemed to find It tiresome that a stranger had taken a place at the table. Jed served us, and the dinner was excellent. Although the ladles had only a glass of sherry each, I was of­ fered a variety of liquors. My habit Is abstemious except upon rare occa­ sions, but I was so embarrassed by Miss Sidney’s boredom that I took two glasses of champagne, and they made ■‘Selling a dress suit to a man who into the shop to buy a celluloid She Seemed to Find It Tiresome That a Stranger Had Taken a Place at the Table. me a more tolerable dinner companion. It was some champagne stimulated re­ mark on feminism which caused Miss Sidney to stare at me as. If I were an animal which, being smooth skinned, suddenly had grown a coat of fur. She stared for an instant and then laughed. She was quite frank. She bad been bored; she had become In* terested. 'I could see; that'she dis­ tressed her mother., Mrs. Sidney, any one could know, held toy conventions as the salvation of Ufe; Miss Sidney did not Isobel Sidney was. a very attractive girt. I guessed her age to be twenty-- three. I also guessed that/’.candor and honesty were outstanding points In her disposition. Her youth and her beauty were magnetic, and ! "must confess that my romanticism was touched Instantly. I .had seen Just enough of Mr. Sidney to understand how this girl could be the daughter of Mrs. Sidney. V By the time dinner was over we had found a pleasant agreement In ideas and taste. I. was Er an ecstacy, foil of the sensation which comes to a diffi­ dent man, unaccustomed to women, when he dares to think for the first time that he has been interesting to a young and beautiful girl. It is one of the Elyslan emotions. We grow old and bald, and women are adventures dismissed from, our lives, We know we do not interest them. We do not think of interesting, them. We become pantalooned lay-figures. too scared of scandal or too confirmed In propriety to break out of the narrowed way. There is an age which comes to a man, a condition In which he finds himself, to which he submits if he have any morals, and when it comes and when he submits, the gates are closed upon fanciful, romantic adventures. If he has been fortunate, he is content. He sits at the west window, and his pros­ pect is the sunset. He no longer asks the great question of youth: “Could I make that girl like me?” To me, after that first dinner with Mrs. Sidney and her daughter, the ecstacy was a romantic folly. Isobel had captured me, my sense, my ra- tiohalityr-my judgment, my mind, fancy and emotions. Beauty’ and youth alone are enough to do this for an Imagina­ tive young man, and when .attractive aspects of character are back of beauty and youth, and when the young man looks forward to a probability of that conquering circumstance, propinquity, he may be excused if his feet lightly touch the floor. I was captured and knew it after that first dinner—knew it, and both loved and dreaded it. I was about to make a fool of myself and be at once a happy and a miser­ able fool. In the exalted state of egoistic emo­ tions which I have outlined, I went to Mr. Sidney’s room after dinner and sal with him for two hours. I began to appreciate how charmingly his life was decorated. A really rare subtlety of art was used to bring a warm color into this indomitable'but feeble man’s winter of life. I did not fully appre­ ciate until later what thought and care lay behind the unstudied comforts and sensations Hartley house offered. Mr. Sidney was white haired and very gracious. His manner was a warm cordiality. It was not precise. It was robust, but it wa£ benignant. LateirI saw how his presence pervaded the place. - - ' We had a cheerful talk. What he said suggested to me that my world could not have been more than a hun­ dred years old at the most, and that his included the period of inorganic evolution in which the period of or­ ganic evolution is but a pin prick. Youth is startled by such conceptions of life, but I had an interesting even­ ing. Before I said good night, Jed came in with two bottles of wine. He stood and looked at me unpleasantly. I arose to go, and Mr. Sidney said: ''I think we shall like each other. At least, I hope you will be comfort­ able, even happy. And don’t be dis­ tressed about the wine. I don’t drink it any more. Jed drinks it, and I en­ joy seeing him do it.”• • ■ * * * • A whippoorwill was reiterant In the woods at.night, and its call came from dark recesses odorous and myste­ riously veiled. Having said good night to Mr. Sidney, I had gone to my room with a book from the library. The night :was fresh, sweet-smelling and cool. I had read for several hours when I heard the cut bolt In my door thrown against the piece of metal which had been left In the socket. There was no transom above the door, and evidently the threshold kept light from appearing beneath it. I had been reading, as I said, for three hours at least, and whoever tried to bolt me in had good reason to think I was asleep. I knew who the person was:. It was Jed. Knowing I was. not locked. in, I was undisturbed and continued read­ ing- Shortly afterward I heard a woman’s voice In expostulation iar down the hall. It arose abruptly to a sharp-cry, and I had . to lay aside my book and expose the fact that my door was not locked, a thing I had not wanted to do until the secret of its being locked could be discovered by revealing that it was not. I hurried out, and down the halL Jed had a woman by the wrist. Both of them saw me coming.. She released herself from his relaxing grip by a quick jerk and ran. He stood until I came up. / * "What is the matter?” I asked. “What makes you think anything is the matter?” he asked. “Doa’t take me for a fool," I said. “That Was Mrs. Sidney \vho screamed. You were holding her. It , seems to me lt needs an explanation.” “Who are, you that .you need an ex­ planation?” said Jed. , “Yon are, drunk, again." “I know I am. If that's satisfactory to my employer, why. should It bother you?” ‘ “I doubt that It is satisfactory to your employer,.that, you should be mak­ ing his wife .scream in midnight. Look here: yon’re a servant in fliis house. What have you «o sartfor vom-sewS Pm ■going to hnve an exiilmmtini) 0f rhls” ..Jed bad been suilv angry; but now he grinned. “All right," he said, “but if you want to be decent about It, ask Mrs. Sidney first whether she wants your help and your asking. That’s my advice, young fellow. And while we’re asking, how did you get out of your room? Yon’re not supposed to be out. We don’t want people in this house running around the halls at this time of night.” “I opened the door and came out. Why shouldn’t I come out. I heard a scream and came.” He looke.d at me as if he were doubt­ ing himself. I think he was uncertain whether he had thrown the bolt or not. It transpired later that I was right, but for the time J was worried. IVhen I went back to my room, I was restless, as oae naturally would be, a stranger in so strange a house. It was impossible to sleep and difficult to •read. - I sat by the window and alter­ nately dozea and read until day broke and the woodthrush began to sing. Then, quieted, I went to bed and had two hoOrs' sleep. I thought it wise to speak to Mrs. Sidney about the incident of the night. She had seen me, she knew I had talked to Jed, she might or might not know that I recognized her. I might add to her perplexities by speaking to her, but I might obtain an insight into mat­ ters which would enable me to act discreetly and usefully. If I remained ignorant of motives, prevailing in the house, I might at any time blunder into a serious mistake. It seemed best to speak to Mrs. Sidney. I could see when I spoke to her, she had .been greatly disturbed, but she was Roman. “It was nothing serious or important, doctor,” she said. “I’ll not say that It was pleasant or that I liked it, but it had no significance. Jed is a faithful and invaluable servant He has a vice for which he is not responsible. He was a perfectly sober man when he came to us, and if he isn’t now, it is our own fault My husband corrupted him.without intending to do so. My husband, when he was well and strong, loved to drink wine. He drank it in great quantities and without any dis­ turbance of his sobriety or good na­ ture. It mellowed 'and at the time in­ tensified life for him. He cannot use it now, on account of his health, but -lie enjoys seeing the use of it, and Jed has been made the victim of Mr. Sidney’s vicarious enjoyment Jed is not always considerate of his position when he is not sober, but he never is dangerous, not even w'hen, like last night, he is exceedingly annoying.” I admired the lady’s resolution .and fortitude, but I did not think she was telling the truth—not all of it. “That was the fir?1 time anything of the kind ever occurred,” she said. “I am sorry it disturbed you. I met Jed in the hall. He was-not sober, and he had a preposterous request to make. When he has spent such an. evening with Mr. Sidney, he resents being a servant In the family. He wants to be accepted as a member of the fam­ ily.”' M . “I have had something to do with that,” I suggested. “No douDt it has inflamed his ego­ tism to have you enter the family. The situation with him is difficult. His pride was hurting him last night He had lost all sense of proportion. He was Uke a child. He remonstrated with me: he was too important as Mr. Sid­ ney’s crony to be merely our servant! It was only a drunken mood, but he_ forgot himself and grasped me by'the wrist I had been trying to control him and restore his common sense. Then I became indignant, and you heard my voice. I am afraid it was shrill, but I was not alarmed. I was meiely indignant.” 1 “You speak of Jed, Mrs. Sidney,” I said, “as if he were merely an annoy­ ing alcoholic, tolerated when he is an­ noying, because of his general useful­ ness but that does not explain why he tries to lock me In my room while he is sober and before these disturbances begin. That shows design and intent to have a free hand when he makes the disturbance. I do not like being locked In my room.” "It is outrageous,” said the lady ner­ vously. “I did not know that it was done. I shall see that it is not re­ peated.” “I am not so sure you can,” I said, “and I wish you would not try. I have protected myself ugalnst it; and I'd rather Jed did not give me any more thought than he thinks is pgoessary now.” “I am sure, doctor,” said Mrs. SM-, ney, “that you will understand Jed and the situation better when you have been here longer. It may be annoying to you now, but we all here "live for the pleasure and comfort of Mr. Sid­ ney, who is worthy of all we can do for him. He did everything he could for us while he was active, and if thoughts would benefit us, he would be working for us now.” ■ Mrs. Sidney was determined to pro; tect the secret of the situation,, and I had no right to cross examine her. The next time'I went to town I bought my­ self-a forty-five caliber pistol.

Ecstatic and morose youth i The beau­ ty of Hartley house became a hollow and dark melancholy, making sad sounds. Vibrant life had gone from It Its perfume was lost I cannot now tell quite what It was that made Hartley house, a place so comfortable and genial, at the same time a place so threatened. The threat could not be ignored: It was there. The story of the ghost at the haunted pool could have.nothing to do with it. The ,.threat had tangible aspects. Mrs. Sid- Iiey1S worry, unspoken but graven in her resolutely Homan face, was one evidence. The extraordinary behavlor of Jed was another. The atmosphere of the place was one of mystery. During the pleasant peaceful, odor­ ous summer months, when our life waB one of undisturbed routine, I' never es­ caped the sense of dread. I hoped the Intangible would take shape; surely something intangible that would be em­ bodied, hung over the house., I may not be able to make this cer­ tainty appear so vividly to you as It did to me. It permeated; it was in the atmosphere; It hung over the woods; it filled the house. It came with the odors of blossoms; it was expressed in the summer winds; It was threatened She Had Been . Greatly Disturbed, but She Was Roman. in the lightning which flashed over the river.' I could not reconcile this effect to such a cause as that feeble ghost story of the pool. I could not dread that ghost or feel its presence. It- was a benevolent ghost needed for decoration. I asked the people of the house, the servants, and found that for them It was largely a superstition. They all had been brought from the city, and only a few, such as Jed, a gardener, the housekeeper and the cook had been long enough in the house really to be associated with it. Jed was the only' one that willingly would be in the vicinity of the pool at night. The others might laugh at the suggestion of terror, but they would not willingly test their superiority to superstition. If they had been really frightened, they could not have been kept in service.T hey were not The place was large, comfortably inhabited and genial. There was a touch of dread at one spot They avoided the spot, and it was negligible so long as they did avoid it In the small town of Hartley there was more of the legend than there was at Hartley house.

Mr. and Mrs. Sidney bad come from ' South America, from Montevideo, where they had lived many years. The circum­ stances of their selection and purchase of the place were normal, but the vil­ lagers spiced a great deal of gossip with notions of the alienism, wealth, aloofness and odd habits, concerning which gossip ran from our servants to the Hartley householders.

Addressing the N o rth C aro lin a Cotton Manufacturers’ A ssociation in Astieville Mr. T heodore H . P rice, of New York, said in p a rt. We are justified in assum ing th a t Adam was not w orried ab o u t th e high cost of living until h e had ea t en that famous apple and h e and Eve Iiegiin to think ab o u t clothes. From that time to this, th e a r t and business of making textiles h as grow n until it is today th e m ost im p o rtan t industry in the w orld. It is prehistoric, and th e sto ry of its growth is literally w oven in to th e history of our civilization. V ery earlv in its developm ent it becam e specialized. The d u ty o f spinning was assigned to th e u nm arried wo* m en or "spinsters.” because it did not require the atten tio n o r concen­ tration that was necessary in th e "wiefen” or wives who did th e w eav­ ing. This was, how ever, befo re th e days of the autom atic loom . Yes. the textile in d u stry is a very ancient and honorable one. In its beginnings it an tedates civilization and to its present developm ent- it generates a trad e th a t em ploys th e physical and m ental en erg y o f an amazingly large nu m b er o f people. But it was no t u ntil co tto n w as commercialized th ro u g h th e inventi­ on of Ilie cotton gin arid th e spinning frame that the tex tile|in d u stry cam e to occupy the place th a t it does -to­ day, and although it is h ard lv m ore than one hundred years since cotton became available in q u an tity w e now take it for granted th a t a constantly- increasing supply is assured and a re enlarging our m an u factu rin g capaci­ ty and our use o f co tto n g o o d s-ac­ cordingly. While th e history o f civilization sustains th e belief th a t w henever there is an.overw helm ing need a means to m eet it is found. it is also true th a t betw een th e acuteness of the need and its satisfaction th ere is often an aching and distressful hia­ tus against w hich society m ig h t have protected itself if it had been m ore forehanded. It is n o t such fo re­ handedness in th e m a tte r o f cotton supply sufficient to keep th e ir spind­ les going and m eet th e w orld’s re ­ quirements th a t I w ould plead, w ith the cotton m anufactures today. Cotton—gun cotton m ade fro ta the hitherto despised lin ters—m ay he said to have w on th e w ar. T he automobile industry is dependent on cotton for the fab ric in its tire s and the “fabrikoid” w ith w hich its cars are upholstered and its tops a re made, The tobacco crops needs m illions of yards of cotton cloth to -protect it and our hospitals w ould be crippled without absorbent cotton bandages Most of our ru b b e r hose is m ade o f cotton and there is a suspicion th a t the same thing is tru e resp ect o f our woolen goods. F lannels have been made of cotton ev er 'since th e Revolution” a t G reensboro becam e successful, and those w ho have re ­ alized as they heard th e “ C an n m booming there th a t cotton tow els save now entirely displaced those that were form ely supported to have been made of linen. L ard and olive oil are m a d e 'o f cotton oil. T he cotton seed are used fo r fertilize r and for bread and even -the p ap er m oney that we are a t p resen t spending so wishly is m ade of cotton m ixed w ith Bilk, I will not go in to figures, b u t •a the United S tates alone w e now consume about 7,0000,000 bales, o r 3.500 .000,000 pounds o f cotton annu- Mly. which is a t th e ra te o f 35 pounds apiece for each m an, w om an and cbild in the country. T he w orld’s Population is supposed to n u m b er a- bout 1,700 ,000,000 persons. I f they ® I consqihe as m uch cotton as w e do >n America, 112 m illion bales o f 500 Pounds each w ould be req u ired to supply them , w hereas less th a n 20 Bilion bales are now grow n, and th e Pfoduction appears to b e decreasing father than increasing, it is this tendency tow ard a de­ fease in cotton production to w hich would specially d irect yo u r a tte n ti vol. 5t im Peri*8 th e enorm ous in- ment th at th e cotton m anufac- Ming industry represents and un Iih !t is reverse(i. m u st ultim ately Pfices for goods to a good point th a t will reduce th e dem and below th e o u tp u t upon w hich th e prosperi ty o f th e m ills is conditioned. I t is all very well to say th a t th e law o f supply and dem and will cor-, re c t th e situation. I t does n o t seem to do so. S ixteen years ago th e U nited S tates produced m ore cotton th an it w ill in th e season upon which w e a re now en terin g , and in th e in­ terv al th e price o f cotton has risen fro m less th an ten to m ore th an 40 cen ts a pound. U n tilw ith in th e la st decade a price of over tw elve cen ts a pound seem ed to w ork an increase in production b u t latterly this has n o t been th e fact. - V arious explanations are offered fo r w h at seem s to be a case o f a rre st­ ed devolepm ent.

The lure of the city and the hope of higher wages under more desira ble working conditions is not the only reason for young men leaving the farms. Big farmers reaching out and getting more land within their grasp have put more than one family off the farm. The number of our farms is decreasing and the size increasing. The large farmer is growing larger and the small-far­ mer is quitting because he is finding it -harder and harder to compete with a more wholesome way of till­ ing the soil. This is not wholly a desirable state of affairs but it is a fact, nevertheless, and we. must admit it and face the problem, as it is. The small farm, well tilled, Has ever been held up as the ideal to­ day as- ever, but we are drifting a- way from the conditions that enable the small farmer to live and improve his small farm to live and improve his small home in competition with the farmer who reduces production by cutting a wide swath.—Ex. Rnds $18*000; Reward Is $12. Ellwood Landis, a' twelve-year- old newsboy at York Pa., found a Wallet containing $18,000 in-cash and-securities and took it to the owner, who had advertised the loss: The man gave the boy $12 and said that he would pray for him. Up To Morrison. John J. Parker is campaigning the State all alone. How come Mr. Morrison don’t meet him? He claimed in the primary fight he could just eat him alive. Let’s see if he can.—Hickory Times-Mer- cury. ' Democrats Acknowledge. Mistake. In his statement regarding the appointment of a secretary of ag­ riculture, Senator Harding said he was graitified to know of the 1 ‘ac­ knowledgement of at least one mis­ take of the Democratic administra­ tion.” ‘‘I note,”- the statement said, ‘ ‘that the Democratic candidate an­ nounces as one of the first. reforms he has in mind, to appoint a “ real” dirt farmer as secretaryof agricul­ ture. That is a reform the Republi­ can party does not" need to adopt. For 16 years; under Republican ad­ ministration, we had a real farmer from a real farm, as secretary of agriculture—Uncle ‘Jim’ Wilson of Iowa, who made the department the greatest of its sort in the world. He ran it for the farmers, made it an instrument to-fight for the farmers and to serve them in a thousand ways. ' . “ When the Democrats came into power they brought a university president as secretary of agricul­ ture and after him " a publish­ er. The Democratic-party certain­ ly needs to be reformed in this re­ gard. The Republican party certain­ ly does not. As in the ~ past, the Republican party will go on develop­ ing the department for the service of real farms .and real farmers. “The truth is that if the great department of agriculture that Jim Wilson built up under McKinley, Roosevelt and Taft, had been main­ tained and carried forward under" the old. Republican ideals of practi­ cal usefulness half our problems of, high cost of living would have been solved for us in advance. :“It it' gratify to see this- early recognition of at least one mistake of the Democratic administration, and purpose to correct it by return­ ing to Republican methods. "A lot of others will be found that can best be corrected in the same way and when the country comes to pass on the program it will decide to apply the Republican method of correction directly—thru a Republi­ can administration.” Another caller today was Senator Cummings of Iowa, chairman of the senate interstate commerce com­ mittee Who discussed the transpor- tatiom situation. In a statement later the Iowa senator’ praised the Republican candidate, who he de­ clared “is as progressive as any man in the country, bar none.” Mr. Wilson’s ambition to be the last of the Democratic presidents setnis to be in a fair way of fulfill­ ment. — St. Louis (Mo.)

The Masonic Picnic. Thursday was a big day ■ fc Mocksville, Davie county and th surrounding country. The forty- seco&d annual Maconic picnic was held at Clement Grove, and at least ten thousand people were here to help participate in this great home­ coming. The features of the day was the annual address by Hon. Gilbert T. Stephenson, of Winston- Salem, the concert by the class from the Oxford Ophanage, and tlie old- fashioned country dinner which was spread on long tables which groaned beneath the ,/weight of the good things. People traveled more than a thousand miles to partake of these good-things. The ,Cooleemee band dispensed sweed nfusic for the exercises. The address by Judge Stephenson was one of the best ever heard on a similar occasion, and has been highly complimented. The behavior during the day could not have been better, as not a single ar­ rest was made: Only two or three of the picnicers seemed to have been under the influnce of Iiquoii, and nothing occurred to marthepleisuie of the day. People were here from all the sarrounding counties and many different States were represen­ ted. The day was a success in every way. The proceedj/not including the excursion froPfiWinston-Salem1 amounted to aj»ut $2,000. Davie Farmers To Visit Iredell. The Davie county farmers will go tq,.fhe Iredell Test Farm, near Statesville, on Friday, Aug. 20th. This picnic was to have been held on Thursday, Aug. 5th but was rained out. All farmers with their wives and children are urged .to meet in Mocksville at 7:30 Friday morning . and go on this outing. Bring weil-filled baskets. The trip will be worth much to all those who attend. . . FarmiDgton News. The Baptist revival meeting at Farming­ton chorcb closed Sunday Aug.’ 8th. Rev. Bradshaw, of Hickory assisted Rev. Hall. His very able preaching was helpful and fa; reaching in its influence. Thirteen united with the church and were baptis­ed. The meetiai s were largely attended througbout the entire week. The people expressed their appreciation of Rev. Brad­shaw not only by their Ioyality to the meeting but added ageiierous offering at the close.The Methodistpeople began their re­vival Sunday. Rev. Vestal will be assisted by Rev. Snow of Mt. Airr. A large con­ gregation attended Sunday. Rev SnowJs a very interesting and convincing speaker. He helped Rev.

An Outlina of W tot Wo Saw, Ho^rd . And Enjoyed.' At 11:30, July 28, we boarded No. 22 for Mocksville. The train was crowded. Despite the autonipbi- lescpnstantly running, there,never was more traveling on trains'thau now. The cause, what it means, and what will be the result, 'fio one knows. MOCKSVIttE REACfiED. We reached Mocksville at I :$2- There was not a big crowd loung­ ing around that depot. Of course-, the two boys were there to ; meet grand-pa. Tfae firet man we met was D. V. Ddvis1 a consin-iti-law, and an ex-Coafeder-ate soldier. But he is the same matter-of-fact “Dan” We were glad to see him again. Mr. Will Clement, one of Davie’s farmers, was there. Not in an auto­ mobile, but in a buggy. In a good old spirit of his father, he kindly asked us to get in and ride tjptown. The ride and his conversation re­ minded us so much of his. father and of the good old-way we. used to travel together in his day. AT d a u g h ter ’s. Of course, we found ' daughter, Mrs. C. F. Stroud, waiting and watching for us. Though she thought we had been to dinner, yet one of the first things that appeared was milk and apple pie. Milk was the first thing that was given us in this life, and we don’t care if it is the last. Andapplepie is better than political pie, because the hands that prepare it are cleaner, and it fits one for serviep, aad not to be served. TBE SMAI1LfiST WOMAN. That evening, with daughter, we visited the smallest woman in the world. She was visiting in Mocks- ville, the home of her birth. We have known her since we were child­ ren together. She knew us, and was the sam$ talkative and clever little piece of humanity. She pro­ mised to come and spend a week with us some time. Hermaiden naaie-was Mariah Nail. Shemar-. ried one of the smallest men in the world, Maj. John Mertz. For years they traveled vpith a show. They now live ip Silsbury. She is 68 years old and is not one hit grey. And theugh a low, fat, chunky little german, yet she only weighs 48 pounds. She n£ver did weigh over 55 pounds. It was a treat to see Manah again. A GOOD PRATER MEETING. At night, we attended the prayer meeting at the Baptist church. They have one of the prettiest little church buildings in the State. Rev. Penry conducted the Service for the pastor. His subject was: “Protect-, ing children from high-up popular danger.” A timely discourse. AU enjoyed it. A 15-year-btd girl is the organist, and a natural, gifted- one. We had a cool aad pleasant night’s rest. MOCKSVIIAE A GOOD TOWN. Tuesday, we met many old friends whom We had not seen in 35 years. We met a few school­ mates., and pupils which was a rare treat to us if we did have to be in­ troduced to each other ' , again Mocksville is small, but a , good country town. There we saw more horses, mules, wagons and buggies in one day than we see here in three days. Andwe saw fewer auto­ mobiles, because they have.fewer of that kind of folks as.yet, v, , WHERE WE DISCOVERED AMERICA. About 5 o’clock, our only;-. living and half-brother, H. M. Deadmoa, came for us and carried us six; miles out home which took about 15 minutes, as the roads are good.^JTe call it “home” because it was* there that we first discovered America. On reaching home again,. Wej at once became a boy* and while there lived over our first 25 years again in the yet, sacred memories of juVinile events, and of the “many who long ago, finished life’s work and areresting and waiting en the other shore which has gotten so near, we can almost see them be- coning and hear them calling us. Our stay around the home ofchild- hood and mother, was indeed," an earthly “haven of rest” to us.: JERUSALEM CHURCH HOME-COMING. Saturday morning about.'-eight of us piled into ;one automobile, and went to the “ Home Coming” day at Jerusalem.

After devotional exercis es, tlie address of welcome was made by the pastor, Rev Benry. Miss Vera Ruth, who was te make the responsive address being kept at home on account of sickness, Rev Freeman, the young and clever pas'- oj: of Cooleemee church, in behalf of the visitors, accepted the hearty welcome. In Christian spirit of love and fellowship, thage were heart-to-heart addresses. After a beautiful duet by two young sisters of the First Bapt st church of Salsbury1 Rev. C. S. Cashwell of Statesville—but a for­ mer pastor of Jerusalem^—preached. His subject was:. “Christ in the home.” He discussed Bible re­ ferences of Christ being asked and permitted in the home: A home of a feast; a home of trouble;- a home of sickness; and a home of death. ' And by it, every ona received his love, his sympathy, his admonition and his blessing. The need today,, he showed, is Christ in every home. It was a timely, gospel sermon, and all en­ joyed it. A FINE DINNER. After the sermon, prayer and song, the meeting was adjourned tor dinner. It was a fine, large dinner. It was so willingly given, and so cheerfully and freely serVed that it reniinded us of the good old- time dinners of 40 years- ago. It consisted of ice watSr, mefcts of all kinds, flies, eakes, pickles, fruits, etc. The most delicious part of, and during it all was, the oneness of spirit that spiced, flavored and sweetened it. After dinger, for an hour, with hearts as full of good things, as tnffr stomachs were, it was a treat to hear them talking a- bout days gone by, and the lives of loved ones gone just across the Jor­ dan into the promised land. It was indeed a heavenly feast. About 2:30 we reassembled in the church. Aftertwo eongs and d pray­ er, the meeting was thrown open for tiHks by the brethem. Several re­ responded. By motion, the home- comers adjourned to meet there a- gain on the first Sunday in August 1921, and all went away happy. It was a successful home (joming. HOME COMING ,AT PORK CHURCH. Sunday we-piled into that same automobile again and went over to a home-coming at Fork church the mother of Jerusalem Church and the grandmother and a half-grandmoth- grof at least four other churches in fh&t county. There were about 600 present. They had singing, speak­ ing and a big dinner, and thac some more speaking and singing. About 58 years ago, we were bap­ tized into that churiih. A few years later, 25 or more of ufe received let­ ters, and organized Jerusalem Church. Although we had not been afFork C&urch in 40 years, yet it appeared like church-home to us. We met many friends who have be­ come mothers and fathers since we saw them last. It, too, Vas indeed a home-coming.to us.

Before the cherries nre all gone, you may provide a tasty relish by canning Cherry Olives.— Fill a jar with well washed, firm, ripe, large, good flavored cherries, without removing tlie stems. Half fill the jar with cold water and fill to running over with good vinegar; add one teaspoonful of salt to every pint, seal as usual. These cherries are especially good'with meats. Raspberry and Currant- Preserve.— Take six pounds each of currants and sugar with eight quarts of raspberries. Pick over, wash and drain the cur­ rants. Put them into a preserving ket­ tle, adding a few at a time, and mash. Cook one hotfl', strain through a double thickness of cheese cloth. Beturn to the kettle, add sugar, heat to boiling point, and cook slowly twenty 'minutes.* Add one quart of raspberries when the sirup again reaches the boiling point; skim out the raspberries, put in a jar, and repeat until all the raspber­ ries are used. Fill the jars to over­ flowing with the boiling sirup and screw on the tops. Preserved Peaches.—Teel and cut In lialves sufllcient peaches. Fill the cans, packing as full as possible, flier add granulated sugar to fill every crev­ ice; seal and put into a hay lined hole, deep enough in the ground to escape frost. In the spring when the frost is gone, dig them up and you will find the most deliciously flavored peaches. A pit or two left in the peaches adds to the flavor. Be sure to mark the spot where they are buried, or the whole garden may have to be spaded to find them. Green Apples and Onions Fried.— Slice two or three medium sized onions very thin; put to cook with a table­ spoonful of any sweet fat. Wliqn soft­ ened sitltl a pint of sliced green apples unpeeled. Add a little water, sugar and salt and cook until the mixture is well browned. Serve as a vegetable with steak. ■ '-Net Contents 15PluidDiaotiiil Tt1-O Y ALCOHOL-3 PER CENT. ’ l « similatin^theFood by Eegular timtthaStomactoandBawelsg. C h i l d r e n C r y F o r I !

Yet it is more reasonable for an infant to sleep with grown-ups than to use a man’s medicine in an attempt to regulate the delicate organism of that same infant. Either practice is to be shunned. Neither would be tolerated by specialists in children’s diseases. Your Physician will tea you that Baby’s medicine must be prepared with even greater care than Baby’s food. A Baby’s stomach when in good health is too often disarranged by improper food, Could you for a moment, then, think- of giving to your ailing child anything but a medicine especially prepared for Infants and Children ? Don’t be deceived. Make a mental note of this:—It is important, Mothers, that you should remember that to function well, the digestive organs of your Baby must receive special care. No Baby is so abnormal that the desired results may be had from the use of medicines primarily prepared for grown-ups.

When the blood becomes in­ fested with millions of tiny dis­ ease germs that attack the skin, then the fiery irritation and in­ tense itching will remain with you until these germs are removed from the blood.

With fresh ber­ r ie s , cherries. ’ melons or citrus fruits one has a g r e a t variety from which to choose. A most dainty fruit cup may be prepared as follows: Cut the edible centers of uiuslimelous into balls with a Frencli potato cutter; arrange them in the glasses; have both fruit and glasses chilled. Pour over a sauce made from Canton ginger, using some of the sirup and a tablespooitful or two of the chopped ginger for a half dozen glasses. For those who do not enjoy the ginger flavor, make a mint sirup and garnish the glass with a sprig of fresh mint. Au orange sauce with the mint is another good comhination. In fact one may use any sauce at hand. The pink heart of watermelon cut in balls and served with any desired sauce is another attractive dish. Chard In White Sauce.—Cook the midribs of chard until tender then serve in a white sauce or with a drawn butter sauce as* if it were celery or asparagus. This makes another veg­ etable dish and one which is very wholesome. Chicken With Asparagus.—Cut up a chicken and stew until tender, saving the broth. Cut up the chicken and keep hot over, hot water, not to lose its moisture. Cook a bunch or two of as­ paragus in .the chicken broth, saving the hroth nnd later cooking noodles in the same broth; In this way the sea­ soning qf chicken and asparagus will season the noodles. Prepare noodles by adding flour to beaten egg until thick enough to roll out, then cut In strips and, after standing a few min­ utes to dry. cook them In the hroth. Have all hot, put. a layer of noodles on the serving plate, over this a layer of cooked asparagus, then a layer of seasoned chicken; Serve hot. Celery salt, pepper and salt are used for Sea­ soning. Celery is used In place of the asparagus in a dish called warmein, which is most savory when prepared according to directions, using'nt least three bundles of celery to one fnlr- sized chicken.

A neighbor saw him across the street one morning and the next day called his attention to the fact that he was out of the zone map­ ped for him. He was one of the busy ones about a vegetable wagon. “Yes,” he said, “I had to get some sings.” The next morning he asked his mother for the market basket. He immediately disappeared and soon re­ turned, accompanied by the vegetable man. In the basket were three pounds of potatoes, a box of berries and two cantaloupes. Mother had to settle whether she needed the goods or not. At any rate.

They seldom crowd the roads in northern Minnesota, but on our last tour, when we headed into a tamarack swamp and had to take our top off because of the low-hanging trees, we did feel a trifle uncertain about the route. “Do many cars travel this road?” we asked some children who happened along. , “Oh, yes,” came the proud reply: “lots of ’em.

Earthquakes. The origin of earthquakes has been traced to two principal causes, the first of which is tectonic, and the second ,volcanic. The former refers to move­ ments In the earth’s crust, known as faults, possibly caused by the shrink­ ing of the interior of the earth by rea­ son of cooling.

EGGS FBOM PEKIH Young Fowls to Be Marketed Should Be Fattened .for Two Weeks Be­ fore Killing—Fish Aid in Reducing Feed Bills. Ducks may be fed on the rations recommended for fowls and chickens, but better results are usually secured by feeding more green and vegetable seeds and a larger proportion of mash. Eggs from Pekin ducks are used large­ ly for hatching, and the profit Is se­ cured In producing green ducklings; therefore lhese ducks are fed a main­ tenance ration after they stop laying In the summer until about December I, when a laying ration is given and the amount of mash increased. Runners for Eggs. Indian Runner ducks have been In­ troduced as producers of commercial eggs, so they should be fed laying ra­ tions throughout the year if kept for egg production. The ducklings to be marketed should be fattened for two weeks- be­ fore kiiiing on a ration made of three parts, by weight, of corn meal, two Darts of low-grade flour or middlings. I 1 1 1 ► t i Kb' FISH MEAL GOOD AS SUPPLEMENTAL FEED Excellent in Hog, Poultry or Dairy Rations. Large Duck Farm on Long Island. one part of bran, one-half part of beef scrap, with 3 per cent grit and 10 per cent green feed. Feed this mash three times dally, or use a mash of three parts com meal, one part low-grade wheat flour, one part bran, 5 per cent beef scrap, and 3 per cent oyster shell, with the green feed and grit added. Influence of Feeds. The green feed is Sometimes left out of the ration during the last seven days of fattening, as it tends to color the meat and may produce a slightly flabby rather than a firm flesh; how­ ever, it is easier to keep the ducklings in good feeding condition on a mash containing green feed. Boiled fish may replace the beef scrap, but should only be fed up to within two weeks before they are killed, as it may;give a fishy taste to their flesh, United States de­ partment of agriculture specialists suggest A considerable quantity of boiled fish is also fed in the mash to laying ducks In sections where the duck farms border on the water and •where fish is available at a very small cost. This fish aids materially in re­ ducing the cost of feeding. NEVER KICK HORSE ON FOOT Lateral Cartilage Is Liable to 1Be Bruised, Causing Inflammation^ and Latneness. ’ When examining the foot of a horse or mule never kick the foot to make the animal lift it off of the ground. In kicking the foot you are liable to bruise the lateral cartilage causing in­ flammation and deposit of bone cells. This deposit of bone cells is the start­ ing of a side bone, which will cause lameness. This lameness once started is extremely hard • to stop. So never kick the horse on the foot. Bureau of Chemistry Knowing High Protein Content of Scrap Has Been Active in Converting Material Into-Food. The common domestic pig will never be able to write a book on table man­ ners but he knows how to order a meal as well as anyone. He is in a fair way to demand a flsh course to supplement his salad and vegetable diet. He will take his flsh In the form of flsh meal, the refined by-product made from sound, wholesome raw material at the sardine, tuna, and sal­ mon canneries, or from the menhaden. The flsh meal is not to be confused with “fish scrap,” a coarser by-product much used for fertilizer; the meal Is made from clean, sound material and is Intended to be used as food for cat­ tle and hogs. Formerly, the cannery waste was all made into “scrap" for fertilizer purposes, but the bureau of chemistry, United States department of agriculture, knowing the extremely high protein content of the scrap, has been active in converting this material into a high-grade protein feed. The cleaned, selected portion Is ground to a fine, palatable meal which may be used to replace tankage in hog, poul­ try, or dairy rations. 1 Fish meal has been recommended as a supplementary ration before now. but popular prejudice against a badly prepared product has discouraged its use. The department of agriculture lias proved by feeding experiments that fish meal equals the high-priced tankage as a ration ingredient, and better methods of selecting and milling have removed the causes of prejudice. The oil contest of the meal adds materially to its feeding value. So far the experiments have shown that the meal does not taint the animal prod­ uct, whether it be pork, butter, eggs, or milk. Moreover, by diverting the fish meals to his animals Instead of supplying it directly to his- land as fertilizer, the farmer loses but a trifle of its fertilizing value and gains its entire feeding value—thus making the material yield two profits in the place of one. KILL OUT PERENNIAL WEEDS Quack Grass and Canada Thistle Are Most Troublesome and Offer Greatest -Resistance. Perennial weeds offer the greatest resistance and require more thorough and persistent effort to destroy them. Two of the most troublesome of our commoD weeds are quack grass and Canada thistle. The former may be distinguished from other grasses if its characteristic features are known. Whatever method will destroy quack grass will also kill Canada thistle.or any other perennial weed. Fallowing or cultivation without' a crop is the most certain method of eradication on large areas and may be used to good advantage except on sandy soils and those continuously wet or very porous. Success depends upon the depth of plowing and fre­ quent cultivation. The prevention of all leaf-growth In weeds means their certain death. Certain cropping sys­ tems will usually be successful- with quack grass. SUCCULENT FEED INSURANCE Mighty Good Plan, to Fill Silo During Favorable Seasons for Feed in Dry Seasons. The silo Is the best feed insurance that can be provided. Even when sea­ sons are favorable and there is plen­ ty of rain it is a mighty good .plan to fill the silo with green succulent feed arid carry it over to the next year, when a dry season may come and cause a shortage of both feeds and pasture.

Oats make good summer feed if you can get the fowls to eat them freely. Most fowls will take readily to clean, sweet, heavy clipped oats weighing 40 pounds per bushel, while they would refuse that which has long points or Is light In weight or musty. A bushel of oats contains only half as much i nutrients as a bushel of corn or wheat. PROFITS IN POULTRY FLOCK Farmer Should Be Careful to Gather Eggs Regularly and Market' Them Promptly. The marketing of the product, par­ ticularly eggs, has an important bear­ ing on the profits of the flock. Under most conditions it is impossible for the farmer to seek a special market for his eggs, but he should be very careful to see that the eggs are gath­ ered regularly and frequently and promptly taken to market. Failure to. do this is responsible for the spoiling of a great many eggs. When the methods of buying are such that payment is made for good eggs only, a plan which is becoming more widespread and bids fair -to be compulsory in ihost states, the farmer Will suffer n decided money loss if he Carefully Packed and Graded. does not make it his business to see that all the eggs delivered are fresh and marketable at full value.. One of the greatest causes of spoil­ ed eggs during the hot summer season is the development of chick embryos in fertile eggs, poultry specialists of the United States department of ag­ riculture say. This loss is prevent­ able simply by producing Infertile eggs. All that is needed to accom­ plish this is to separate the male birds from the females as soon as the breeding season is over. All the eggs sold will then be infertile and incapa­ ble of embryo development. DISPOSE OF SUCKER FOWLS Hens, Too Old or Too Lazy gp Pay Their Way Should Be Eaten, Canned or Sold. The slackers are hens too old or too lazy to pay their way, those using their feed for making fat and those that have finished their year’s pro­ duction of eggs and are beginning to molt. The poultryman cannot reason­ ably expect to maintain a high pro­ duction if he has many birds of this Stamp. Cull them/out at once. They Should be eaten, canned or sold. DON’T CHANGE FEEDING PLAN Various Methods May Be Successful as Conditions Are Different— Make Study of Flock. If your method of feeding gives good results do not change it just be­ cause you read of other methods used by other poultry raisers. Various methods may be successful; condi­ tions are so different Uiat they de­ mand different methods. A poultry raiser must study the conditions of his own flock, their surroundings, the climate, etc. FOR BETTER EGG PRICES Produce infertile eggs. Gather- twice a day. Keep in a cool place. Market twice a week. Protect eggs from sun on way to market. Feed oyster shell for stronger egg shells. s' Do not market eggs from stolen nests. Hogs have been reduced rel­ atively about 5 per cent during the first four months of this year on the farms of the United States as compared with the trend durifig the .first four months of 1919, reports the bu­ reau of crop estimates, and there has been a relative reduc­ tion of 6 per cent in cattle dur­ ing these four months of this year Im comparison with tlie -same time last year. EXERCISE FOR LAYING HENS Good Way Is to Feed Oats, Wheat and Barley in Litter—Change the Straw Frequently. One way to furnish exercise for laying hens is to feed oats, wheat and barley In litter. The floor is covered with straw 6 inches deep. In this the grain feed is scattered. The straw is changed frequently as it becomes soiled from droppings. Some of the poultry diseases are spread through droppings. - DOUBLE YARD SYSTEM BEST While Fowls Are Using One, a Cron of Oats or Rye Is PIagted In the Other. Tbe double yard system is the best for yarded fowls—that is, each pen has the run of a front and back yard, and while they are using one a crop of oats or rye Is planted in the other As soon as the green blades are uri three inches the fowls are turned Into It and the other yard dug up and planted. “ Neither Satisfactory.

Ho was attached t(j it, proud of l,is work and fond of it and its results. He Iiiiil a neat little cottage beyond the amleris. His wfe was very pleas­ ant mill thought too much of my serv­ ices. Williamson himself was a fine roan, anil I am interested in gardening. ConsMinently, having to visit the fam­ ily every day or every other day, I fornu’il a habit of talking with him. When, by chance, I spoke of the ghost story to Williamson, with no more purpose than I ever had had In these inquiries, I noticed that he -vas a bit embarrassed. "I take no stock In the stories about the pool," he said. "I’d just as lief pass It at midnight as midday—al­ most.'’ “Be honest, Williamson,” I suggested lau;hiiigly. “Almost, I said,” he replied. “But I did see something at the pool.” HenttS a straightforward,'unimng- Imtire sort of man. I was sure he Was not about to indulge In romance. "I know something of these stories,” he said, “I have not gossiped mine about—I was coming from town late —otter midnight. It was the second year of our being here. It was In the fall or late summer—I do not remem­ ber, As I came along the road by the pool, I saw the figure of a man stand­ ing by the edge of the river. It was light enough for me to see that the figure was leaning on a stick or cane. I stopped and was going to call out, but for some reason—I don’t know just why—I didn’t. The figure, did not move, I began to feel creepy and ■went on as gently as I could. Fifty feet farther, I heard a rustling In the brush and I thought I saw a face. I couldn't be sure, but I thought I did. I knotv I heard a rustling. When I Sot out in the open, I ran the rest of the way home on the turf.” "There was nothing very alarming about that," I suggested. My romance needed more substance. "You saw a fflfin and heard a noise.” “There was nothng In seeing a map and hearing a noise,” said Williamson. "It was the efTect.” “That was due to the hour and the place.” * “No. I’m not superstitious. I was ®ot thinking of the place. The man ■ on the bank was different from a man. I could not see why. I didn’t think he was a man. it was not because I was scared—at first. I became scared as I looked at him. He did not move. He did not seem to be alive. When I felt shivers starting up and down my back. I knew I was scared. , Then when I heard the rustling, I went home as Quickly and quietly as I could.” c' CHAPTER 111. Jed certainly was the most slgnlfl- taBt disagreeable fact in the house, Md his Influence the most significant Malignancy. He had been sobered by •he discovery of his attack upon Mrs. Sidney, but as he Iiegan to recover from hu discomfiture! and as the sense °f caution began to lessen, he again asserted, or suggested, control, par­ ticularly when he was drunk. He never allowed Mr. Sidney to know this. In tnelr strange association at Horatlan wine feasts, Jed was tactful, respect- ™1. considerate and jovial. To Mrs. Sidney he was at time .cour­ teous and thoughtful, at other times disrespectful or even brutal. Some­ times be seemed to frighten himself. When I saw that he was again begin­ ning to show disrespect for her, I was Ior Putting an end to It. Mrs. Sidney horrified when I said tlyit Jed cou il be brought to terms. She held tlP hor bauds. "No, no,” she said. "Not In any 'IMlltl Nevcr> Please, speak to Mr.. awney. i>ieU„e never think of It. Jed invaluable to Mr, Sidney. He Is not Ihi ,.lsfinlrteOUS to me as you might ' • He Is gruff, and drinking does Iimke him better, but It Is Mr. Sld- ' 8 whim that he should drink. Xt would be unjust—don’t you see It would be unjust?—to make a point against him-of behavior that Mr. Sid­ ney causes. Please never mention it.” She was very much In earnest and was not satisfied until she had my promise that I never, would speak to Mr. Sidney of Jed until I had her con­ sent. • She then' showed relief,, and I felt more distressed. Jed had some hold on this resolute lady that I should have Uked to break. Jed’s attitude toward - me was a thing to drive distracted a person who cared what it was. I did not. He cojild be interesting, and then I was interested in him. He could be stupid, and I avoided him. He could be surly, and I Ignored him. He could be quar­ relsome, and I fought him back. It seldom was a matter of sobriety or insobriety with him. He was best natured to me at times when he was most intoxicated. He was surliest at times when he was perfectly sober. At other times he quite reversed this. One never knew from his physical condi­ tion what his disposition might be at the time. , He served at dinner when Mrs. Sid­ ney, Isobel and I, more ceremoniously than we cared to, dined. Certain do­ mestic ceremonies pleased Mr. Sidney and he liked to know that In some re­ spects the baronial character of his place was being maintained as he would have maintained it if he had been active. When Jed was In good nature, he frequently sought me out for talks, and when he was in good nature, I en­ couraged him. I did not want to open up any secrets the house might have, merely to Yearn what they were, but I knew Mrs. Sidney needed help, and I thought I might give it if I knew how. I also thought that Jed some evening when pleasantly and good naturedly drunk and garrulous might say more than he intended. There were many opportunities, but he never did. One night—this was In September— I was walking about the place with the mastiffs at my side. I stood a while tat the edge of the woods looking at the house. In its shadowy bulk it seemed fit container of mystery. Only a few windows were illuminated. It wa^the river side of the house that was bright at night. I walked slowly across the lawn toward the side where Mrs, Sidney’s rooms were. A small balcony opened off her sitting room. I could hear her talking to some one on this balcony. The person she was talking to, as I heard In another moment, was Jed. I was then almost under the balcony. “I am a resolute man,” Jed was'say­ ing. ‘TH have my own way. I’ll have what I want. I’ll make you glad to come to terms. I’m a reasonable man, too. Now, admit that I’ve been con­ siderate.” I started to get out of hearing as quietly and rapidly as I could, but I heard Mrs. Sidney, her voice vibrant with indignation, say: “I ought to have you whipped.” “That is silly, unreasonable passion,” said Jed. “I shall not hesitate to kill you,” said Mrs. Sidney. Then I went out of earshot. The fact that Jed could threaten Mrs. Sid­ ney In this fashion was inexplicable. It could not be explained by his serv­ iceability to Mr. Sidney, great as that N I Might Better Have Been a Wax Fig­ ure Taken From a Display Window. was. I walked about for a while, dis­ tressed 6 nd depressed;, then I patted the heads of the mastiffs, went Indoors and to my room. ■ ( " ■ 4n hour later I opened my door In response to a light rap. Mrs. Sidney was there. •‘May I come In a moment?" she asked. “Thank you. I have a request to make which you cannot help but think Is extraordinary—preposterous,” I placed a chair for her . 1 Shb thanked me but remained standing. I thought she must be In an agony of mind, but Aeam lliid.' “I hope it ~ls to ask raj to take Jed In hand,” I s'aid. "No; it is to ask you to permit me to announce the engagement of my daughter Isobel to you. Don’t be alarmed. It shall not make any dif­ ference In your life. It is a desperate expedient I am using out of a diffi­ culty.” I felt as if I were In a spiritual fog. “Is that the only way I can help you out?” I asked. “The only one,” she said. “I have thought of everything'” “Has it to do with Jed again?” I asked. ' “With things I cannot possibly ex­ plain. Is there any one who would be distressed by such an announcement?” “Not a soul,” I said, “—except Miss Sidney.” “I would not cause pain,” said Mrs. Sidney. “Are you sure there is no one?” “Mrs. Sidney,” I said, “you are the only lady who eveT has given me a thought since I knew my mother. I am merely wondering what Miss Sid­ ney will think of me in such a role. Will she understand why I take it? I am not hesitating. I hope I do not seem to be, but I know—I suspect— that your decision is sudden.” “Isobel’s affection for us is greater than her demand for independence,” said Mrs. Sidney. “If she knows that I asked you to consent to this an­ nouncement, she will think of you as a proved friend.” I had suggested all the precautions that were reasonable. “You certainly may make any _nse of me yon want to,” I said. She thanked me and said good night. • <» » • * * * * * Isobel’s view of our engagement was purely comic. She may have had a second of spiritual revolt, but comedy and consideration for her mother as­ serted themselves. Mrs. Sidney, when she told Isobel of the engagement, had me present. The mother was really embarrassed, almost flustered, but she was determined. Isobel was greatly amused. It may be imagined that I was not heroic. I might better have been a wax figure taken from a display win: dow. I felt like one, a thing with a wax smile and no animation. “It is merely precautionary,” said Mrs. Sidney uneasily: “It is quite, im­ possible to explain. You will have to accept my judgment, Isobel. Dr. John” —an odd halfway house toward inti­ macy she reached and stopped at— “Dr. John has been kind enough to do as I asked him. I need and want the support of my children in wlmt I am doing." ' I felt a touch of emotion at that. Unconsciously, Intent upon her main point, she had included me at the fire­ side and had spoken of her “children.” “Anything you do or have done is all right, mother,” said Isobel, recov­ ering Irom her sense of humor. “Dr.— John—will not be unhappy—I am sure —will you, doctor? And I—mother— I’ll get an advantage of you In this— see. if I don’t.” “You mustn't try to, lsobei,” said Mrs. Sidney anxiously. “I am doing the- best I can.” Later in the evening I saw lsobei, finding her alone In the library, where she was reading. I went in to get a book before going to bed. She was by a lamp near the fireplace, and she .looked very beautiful. “I want to talk to you,” she said when she saw me. “Do you know the explanation of this?” . “No,” I said. “You are not quite honest,” she said. “A man engaged to a girl he never asked to marry him might suspect that something was out of the ordinary.^ "Of course, something is extraordi­ nary,” I said. “Do you know what it. Is?” “No, I don’t,” she said. “Why don’t you sit down?” With a soft witchery of femininity she pervaded and glorified the room, but she was peremptory. I was-.not Kullen, but I felt defiant “Because I don't want to sit down," I said. Is9 bel smiled Indulgently at me. "Oh, sit down. Dr. John,” she said, "I want to talk to you. We are en­ gaged, you know, and engaged people ought to have a talk after the event, if not before.” “You understand how this hap­ pened,” I suggested. “I do,” she said. “My mother is fitghtened. Jed has been trying to marry me.” “What can give him the privilege of such insolence !” I exclaimed. “I imagine he is enamored,” she said serenely. “It may seem impossible to you.” “Has this man approached you di­ rectly?” I asked. “He has been gallant, amorous, sug­ gestive, tender, soulful, aggressive, pleading, threatening, subservient and —I think that is all—but only in man­ ner.” "I.don’t understand it,” I said help­ lessly. “Neither do I,” •she said. “And I know just enough to know that I shall not understand it. I do not like to find a Romeo among the servants, but I have learned to accept some strange condition* here—among them you.” “Don’t disturb yourself, about me,” I said. * A good deal of my hurt pride must have found expression In that remark. “I. am unjust.” she said. “I" know that you are doing what my mother wants done and that you are not con­ sidering yourself. I shall be reason­ able. I want to make my mother’s life as pleasant as.lt can be made. I can­ not understand everything -that she needs of me, but I kuow that you have done everything that you could do for ' hev. I do not want, to seem Inconsid­ erate." . r ■ - 'Td like to protect you and your mother,” I said. “We are indebted.” said Isooel, with a chill and unkind restraint. Then she smiled and said: ‘‘Good niglit, doctor. If I am incon­ siderate at any time, put it down to a naturally bad temper.”*».* * » » » m Jed had taken a small shotgun and said that he was going after rabbits, which were unusually numerous and threatened to be damaging to the young brush about the place. It was an October afternoon with a warm sun. An hour or two after Jed had gone, I went out for a walk, going down by the pool. I was in .the brush for fifteen min­ utes, and it happened that while I was there I saw from a little prominence the figure of Jedi on ahead with his shotgun. He:was some distance away, but I could see that he was going stealthily from tree to tree In an odd fashion for one hunting for rabbits. It was as if he were stalking something rather than trying to kick rabbits up out of the brush. I went on toward the pool. Once again I saw Jed ahead of me. I came out on the path and went‘on to the river bank, where I sat down. Whenever I saw a piece of drift in the pool and watched its movements, I thought of the body of the slain brother. It had been whirled out into the current and had been carried down stream. On the bank had been found a few tom bits of clothing—the sleeve Mya+s "I Do Not Like to Find a Romeo Among the Servants." of a coat, a collar spotted with blood, a necktie and a piece of a white shirt There also had been found a heavy walking stick, bloodied and with hair in the blood. I had not been sitting on the bank five minutes when I was startled by il shot from the nearby thickets, and a bullet hit within two feet of where I was sitting, knocking off the bark of a tree. The report was not that of a small shotgun such as Jed had car­ ried. It was the report of a rifle or pistol. . The chipped bark showed that 9 bul­ let, not shot, had hit the tree, and I was unpleasantly conscious of what had happened. Jed had shot at me, probably with a large caliber revolver. He could not have had a rifle, unless he had one hidden In the brush. I had seen what he carried, not only as ne left the house but as he was dodg.- ing through the thickets. It likely was a pistol or a revolver, and that was why he hnd missed me. I was stupefied for an Instant, and I did not jump or start I was motion­ less, not even looking around, but I was thinking' rapidly. A subconscious protective Idea formed almost instant­ ly. and when the next moment another shot came from behind me, I fell for­ ward on my face, rolled a couple of feet to a bush, turned my face in the direction from which the shot came, got out my pistol and lay still. After a minute or two which seemed a very long time, Jed’s face came In view In the brush. He looked malevo­ lent but seemed undetermined and cautious. I think he was uncertain whether to leave my body where It lay and have It discovered, or throw it into the river and have my disappearance unexplained. His decision was given him by the noise of a farm wagon ap­ proaching on the road, and he disap­ peared. I was ready to shoot him If he came near me. I was young and had youth’s confi­ dence, but nevertheless this event would have sent me away from Hart­ ley If it had not been for Isobel and Mrs. Sidney. They needed even my small help and I had to remain. I had to remain, but I had also to protect myself. Another time Jed might not miss. On the way back to the house I thought out a plan which I believed would work. I Inquired for Jed and was told that he was with Mr. Sidney. I found him there drinking, and my entrance gave him a shock which he plainly indicated. His fright made him so u£ly that he was comic. “After all, we are engaged.” ITO BE CONTINUED.)

AUGUST 25, 1920.NUMBER 7 “Sounds Good Bat Won’t Work.” Mr. Kditor; The Winston-Salem Journal’s editorial in issue of July 30th interests me. and with your per­ m ission I shall briefly show the edi- tnr of t he Journal that it will work. Now I am ffoing to quote a few lines from Chapter 90, laws actio raise revenue. Section -I of said act, thus: “Individual of 1919—An a portion of and it raads stockholders in any corporation, joint stock associa­ tion. limited partnership, or .com­ pany paying a tax on its capital stock shall not be required to pay any -tax on said stock or list the same, nor shall corporations upon which the tax has been paid by the corporation issuing the same be required to pay any tax on the said stock or list the same. Nor shall any individual stockholder of any foreign corpora­ tion be required to list or pay taxes on any share of its capital stock if two thirds in value of its entire pro­ perty is situated and taxed in the State of North Carolina, or if such corporation has tangible assets with­ in this State assessed for taxation at a value of the total stock owned by citizens of this state, and the corpo­ ration pays franchise tax on its en tire issued outstanding capital stock at the same rate as paid by domestic corporations.” Now I will give you a portion of Article 5, Section 2. in part; and it read as follows. “Laws shall be passed taxing by a uniform rule all money, credits, investments in bonds, stocks, joint-stock compani­ es or otherwise.” The only way that I can see why or how the legislature seemingly igno­ red the above part of section 2 article o.of the constitution in passing its Act to raise revenue, was that it re­ garded double taxation as not con­ forming to a uniform rule if you take that to be true for its ignoring of the constitution I which is a debatable question) now if it so construes dou­ ble taxation when it comes to apply to corporations why cannot it alst exempt indviduals similarity situat­ ed? If I owe $5,000 for a farm-and the party from whoml buy the farm pays tax on the note and the mortg­ age. please tell me why I should not hold my farm exempt from tax long as the seller pays tax on my note? A certificate of stook in a banker other corporation is proper­ ty. A promissory note is also pro­ perty and is taxed as such; then why; discriminate against the individual' who holds property pledged to the payment of a debt fofHune? A stock certilicate and a bond aka.^ip/ning but a promise to pay the*holder the amount for which it is written. I believe that our constitu­ tion will have to be amended before these reforms can be made in our tax laws but now is the time to ask the legislature to appoint a com­ mission to investigate and make re­ commendations to the next session of our legislature so that a just, fair ond impartial taxation system be enacted into law—and written into our constitution. To my mind the putting in the law a provision to ex­ empt holders in stock in corporations from taxation where the corporation pays tax on its issued stock—is a rank discrimination against the man who has to pay tax on property, which >3 pledged to the payment for a debt when the holder of a note or other evidence of the debt is paying tax on same—it is doubie taxing in the latter ease and is exempting from double taxation where the corporation is concerned—I admit there are serious and vexatious problems confronting us in adjusting our taxation, system hut that every citizen of our great State be given a fair square and hon- Bt deal is worth all an honest effort to bring it about in time and effort takes. Equal and exact justice be­ fore the law should be our slogan and watch word from now on. Noth m? less will satisfy our people, as 'a Pe >ple we must hang together, or s >me of us may hang singly, —E. H MORRIS. Page Oa Morrison. j At the opening of the second pri­ mary contest between Gardner arid: Morrison, Mr Gardner make hisfirst speech at Aberdeen on June 17th. Mr. Gardner paid his respects to Mr. Morrison as follows: “ Mr. Gardner’s opponent is a man superlatively unfitted oy nature and lack of grace to fill the high office to which he aspires. I have been as- How About It, Mr. Farmer? ' The Canadian farmer sold his wheat at .threshing time last year for $2.15 a bushel and, in addition a participating certificate- showing the number of bushels he had mark­ eted and which entitled him to what­ ever, advance there was. When the business of the year was closed each wheat grower received in addition to sociatad with him in various capaci- the $2.15 cents a bushel, between ties for 30 years,' His highest con ception of the functions of a politi­ cal party is to capture places of pro­ fit for leaders of the partj'3 . He has not and never has had any idea that government shouldbe adopted for 50 and 60 cents a bushel on every bushel marketed, upon presentation of the participating certificate: Here is a fair, square way of deal- The prices established at de- the inimate needs of the people.Iliver^P ut th eGovermem “insafe” Mr. Morrison is wholly out of har- 1 aud Save the grower his needed re mony with everything in the state except the machine. Those who wish to do business with him must take a long a revenue doodler to be intro­ duced. He is incapable of being more than a cog' in a wheel or at most a wheel in a machine. The political machine, now coming to .Morrison’s aid fought every progres­ sive measure to come before the leg­ islature while I was a member of it.” If half of what Mr. Page says of Mr. Morrison is true then he is unfit to be Governor of the great State of North Carolina. No one will charge that Hon. John J.-Parker, the Republican candidate, is not fit for Governor. The Democratic county paper of Mr. Parker’s home town says that he is a man of the highest character and one who prizes the welfare of his state above every considerstion.—Ex. Rubbing Au Old Sore. Mr. Average Citizen is now inform­ ed that he will probably have to pay 36 per cent more freight, half a cent per mile more1 for a train ticket, more for a berth, more for milk and ex­ press transportation.

Undpr the Canadian plan this would have bfeen returned to the growers, to whom it belonged, but the Ameri­ can farmer received none of it. In­ stead he had to witness the spectacle, many times, of his own -board o"f control keeping down the price of wheat with threats of dumping a large accumulation on 'the market whenever there were indications of a recovery in the price. Neverthe­ less, fh ; control was ended with a prcfit of more than 50 million dol­ lars, beside paying immense salaries to'numerous' officials, all of which was wheat money, that rightly be­ longed to the folks who produced the wheat.—Gaston Times. ‘ .

If you want to run for a county office you will have to speak quick or wait two years for another op­ portunity. North Carolina wouldn’t but Tennessee did—so the ladies can get busy and see that all the sisters vote this fall. North Carolina Senators who vot­ ed against woman suffrage in Ral­ eigh last week -will have a picnic when they arrive home. It is said that if Cox is elected President the League of Nations treaty will be ratified within sixty days. AU the more reason why he should be defeated. If the women are going to vote in November election this year they should attend the primaries and the county conventions and help select the men that are to fill various "ounty offices. It might be a good idea to put one or two on the county tickets. John Parker, the Republican no­ minee for Governor has stumped the State in favor of suffrage, while Cameron Morrison, the Democratic nominee has remained at home and is opposed to the women voting. Wonder which of these men wiU receive the women vote this fall. Put in plain words, the issue Mr. Wiison wants to put before the people is: Shall we mind our own business, or shall we try to1 decide European affairs? He will find the AmericanpeopIesaynext Novemb­ er that we had better attend to our own business.—Kingsbury County (S. D.) Independent. From what we can hear and read Senator James L. Sheek, of Mocks- ville, Davie county, North Carolina, must be right much opposed to wo- mfin suffrage. He voted to postpone ?'the direful moment until 1921. Senator Jim will no doubt retire from public, political ,life from thenceforth and forever. Of course the democratic plat form will deplore the hiy;h cost of living, commend the Paln ier cheap­ er cuts, and declare that under a democratic administration all goods will sell below cost.. Brit wonder what it will say aboutl sugar?— Houghton (Mich.).MininIgGazette. Sober-minded business / men who have voted the Democratic ticket at the last two elections will welcome the opportunity to vote/ for level­ headed men of Harditig-Co olid ge type. And among men who will cast their first vote next November will take advantage I of the oppor­ tunity to align themselves with a forwardlooking, constructive, , sane political party.—Nashua (N. H.) Telegraph. / WHICH' SHALL IT BE? Harvey’s /Weekly, in discussing the acceptance speech of Governor Cox, on the Democratic presiden­ tial ticket, closes its article with the following language: No; ,if words have meanings, and if anything is made plain in a speech whjch is prefaced with the remark that. “ We are in a time which calls Jor straight thinking, straight talk- /'ing and straight)acting,” it is 'cer­ tain that Governor Cox has comple­ tely surrended hamself to President Wilson’sLeaguej of Nations policy, so in the coming; election a vote for him will be a volte for the conven­ tion, Article Ten, reputation of the Monroe Doctrine, and all the rest without reservations, without so much as the dotting of an i or cross­ ing of a t. The ‘ ‘great and solemn referendum’ ’ has got him in its grip, beyond all power of quibbling or evasion. O ur Country: T iia t is the issue. The United States of America, free and independant, or a League of denationalized nations, dominated by an alien military alliance: Which for Americans? Republicans of Davie Take Heed. Mr. Editor:—Below is a para­ graph taken from a recent inter­ view of Rep. State Chairman Frank Linney. I want the rank and file of the party to read it and go out to the primaries on the 4th of Septem­ ber and see that such men as Mr. Linney says should be put up for officers, and let’s see that men are nominated that the best women of Davie County will be proud to walk up to the polls and vote for in Nov­ ember. FIere is what Chairman Linney says. “I personally favor woman suffrage, and as a matter of party' policy, when the Rep­ ublican party cannot put out candi­ dates clean - enough for the best women of the State to support, it should go out of business as a poli- cal organization.” Thisringsclean and clear and every Republican in the County should see that it is heeded in the coming primaries and convention. It is more likely that the women of Davie County will vote at the approaching election, and should that be true, we may look for the true and good woman­ hood of the County to demand that men may be nominated and elected to office in this County who will see that the laws are enforced, and that their sons and daughters are prote­ cted from the debauchery going on at this time in certain sections of the count}-. Lawsandordershould be tne tvacch word, and. none but good and rue ir.eu should be put on guard. The true and good woman­ hood of the county should assert their power and influence whether they are given the ballot this year or not. Many of the best men of our county are asleep or are too busy chasing the dollar to take a hand in governmental affairs. Its no time to sleep and slumber when the enemy is at the gate, when the good name, character and future lives of your sons and daughters are going down before the debauchees. Go to the primaries, comes out Mon­ day September the 6th, and see that your wishes are heeded. We are passing through one of the most crucial periods of the world’s history and it’s a wise man who can see enough ahead to foretell what is in store for us. Let’s put Davie county in the front rank of law and order counties. We can do it, and it should be done. E. H. MORRIS. Turner Reunion. The seventh reunion of the Turner family was held the 19th of Aug. at the home of G A. Rwdacil and his wife Jane L. Rudacil, the youngest one of the Turner family, and not­ withstanding the night before was raining and the day was cloudy and threatening, there was a good turn­ out of the Turner family and their descendants who came from Davie, Powan and Cabarrus counties, and was increased by a large turnout of friends and neighbors, and were honored by the presence of two hon­ ored Confederate veterans namly, C. A. Guffey of Rowan Co., and John L ipish, of Dayie Co. The exercises were opened with prayer by Pinkney Turner and the speech of welcome was made by H. F. Turner, and also enlarged by giving history of the Turner family from James Turner who was born in the year of 1690, down to the present Turner fam­ ily, which was the sixth generation. It was listened with close attention after which Pinkney Turner discuss­ ed the importance of well spent life against an ill spent life, and illustrat­ ed and enforced it by using the first division of the Psalms after which a sumptuous dinner was spread by the ladies on the table 36ft long and the divine blessing was asked by Pinkney. Then the joyfull eating such as only the former can do be­ gan by the large concourse that sur rounded the table and after all had eaten there was much left on the table.

Mr. Harding does not fear that the failure of any of his plans or pol­ icies will “break the world’s heart. In the first place, his plans and policies are all American .and;..the world is not immediately concerned in them, and thdn he is not, reach­ ing out in perspective to entangle this government in the world’s af­ fairs; he isn’t even contemplating a visit of. several months to Europe when he becomes President.—Kans­ as City Journal. _ Warren G.

I have never, nor am I now opposed to equalizing values, or placing a fair and reasonable value on all pro perty. but at this time of imflated values-when Governor Bickett in his message to the legislature (Aug 10, 1920) says that "the dollar is now re­ latively worth 40 cent,” it strikes me as being unwise to place an inflated value on the farm land of our State. We need to give every reasonable encouragement to keep our young men on the farm, but to tax the mortgaged farm and leave untaxed the investment in Stocks is a rank and unjustifiable discrimination a- gainst that class of our people—the legislature snould correct this in- justifiable discrimination agrinst that class of our people—the legislature should correct this .injustice at the earliest date possible. There is no question but what our taxation sys­ tem needs overhauling, and I hope for its early consumation, that equal and exact justice may be meted out to all alike without regard to wealth or poverty.

And it was indeed a happy gathering and everybody seemed to enjoy the day to the fullest. At 1.30 o'clock the large table which had been placed on the spacious lawn, was loaded with everything to eat that anyone could wish for, and the crowd was well filled, and then there still remained several basket of fragments to be taken up, and it was said that some ate so much, that' they were awful glad that Dr. G. V. Greene was there too, so he could administer help if it was needed for over-eating. After that the tables were filled with nice watermelons and cantaloupes which were also greatly enjoyed. ' Attorney Arthur Williams, of Greensboro, made a short talk about the anniversary of this much beloved couple, and with fitting re­ marks presented them with some nice gifts from their children, thenT. LCaudeii of Cooleemee1 made a talk and led in prayer, after which the crowd soon began to disperse each wishing that this good couple may enjoy many more such happy occasions.

FAMOUS OLD BOSTON ABODE Province House, Once One of the Most Famous Colonial Mansions, Has Been Partially Preserved. There stands, today on Bossworth court in Boston but a portion of the old Province house, a most interesting relic of Colonial days; and the rest of the court is lined with modem of­ fice buildings. But in 1820 it was con­ sidered a rery genteel part of town. Oliver Wendell Holmes lived in the old TrovinCe house for 18 years. -It Ilio farther end of the court sands an iron-wrought archway, dec­ orative u[ design, wfiich was used in die early part of the nineteenth cen­ tury as an entrance to the governor’s garden, a part of the Province house grounds.

The bureau of entomology offers the following information: The chinch bugs spend the winter- in clumps of bunch, grass and under dead leaves and rubbish. In 'the spring they I emerge and fly to fields of young wheat, where they lay their eggs on the root tops and stems. AVhen the wheat commences to ripen and dry, the young bugs leave the wheat fields in armies and walls—for most of them cannot fly—to the cornfields, where they do the greatest damage. The fact that they make the migra­ tion from the wheat to the com by walking gives the farmer his, oppor­ tunity to check the invasion by pour-, ing road oil along the bottom of a shallow furrow dug across the line of march. Deep holes should be dug every 25 feet along the furrow on .the side nearest the wheat to trap the bugs. Spray Infested Cord. Corn already Infested may be sprayed with kerosene emulsion along Chinch Bug. the first rows to prevent the bugs from -going farther. Some com will be Injured by the spray, but the bal­ ance will be safe from the. bug. As- a preventive measure, bum all trash and dried grasses, especially such as grow In. clumps like “broom sedge” during early winter or early spring. Roadsides and pastures should receive.most thorough treatment of this character. ..' •. WORKING FOR BETTER SIRES Virginia .Farmer Enrolls. In “Better Sires—Better Stock” Movement— Discards Grades.

Lacking Essential Can Bd Overcome by Providing Air Duct of Wood, Metal or'Terra Cotta, Fitted in One of the Windows. It is necessary to have good'venti­ lation if food and vegetables are to be kept safely in storage. In many cel­ lars under dwellings the lack of venti­ lation is the only essential that is lacking. However, this can usually be easily overcome by providing an air duet constructed of wood, inetaf: or' terra cotta, which, fitted in one of the windows, is desirable, as it permits the cool air to enter at the bottom of the room. Two or more joints of fl­ inch stovepipe, one with a damper, and an elbow may be used. A piece of board with a hole the size of the pipe is fitted in the window in place of one of the panes of glass. Another pane of glass may be removed from &Ut JhvAirJ Details of construction for the ven­ tilation of a storage room in a base­ ment The air duct may be made of wood, terra cotta, or metal and in­ stalled in place of a pane of glass, thus avoiding cutting through the cel­ lar wall.

In cold weather both, the hinged door and the damper In tfie stovepipe must be closed. The windows in the storage room should be darkened in order to protect the vegetables from the IighL Barrels, crates, boxes, dr bins may be used as containers for the various vegetables, but movable containers are preferable to built-in bins, as it is possible to remove them for cleaning. It is advisable to'construct shelves or a slat floor to keep the crates, boxes, baskets, and other containers off the ground. This is highly desirable to in­ sure a free circulation of air and to prevent the containers from harboring mice, rats, and other vermin. The shelves • for canned goods along one side of the. room need not be more than 6 Inches wide. MARQUIS WHEAT IS POPUUR Yielding Quality Greater Than That of Any Other Variety, With Exception of.

Gargantliau size is as unfamiliar to many as the only terms In which it may be fittingly expressed. Prelim­ inary figures compiled by the* bureau of infernal revenue show that during the fiscal year ending June 30 the peo­ ple of the United States paid into the federal treasury the staggering total of $5,410,284,S75'-in taxes. It is the greatest annual ,,tax bill ever assessed against any nation; it Is neatly 75 per cent more than the taxes paid during 1918 or 1919, when war expenses were at the peak. Estimating the population of the United States at~120.000.000, the taxes paid last year amount to an average of $45 per capita. It is a sum no oth­ er nation on earth could stand.T he total represents about 2 per cent of the aggregate wealth of the country. Much of this enormous debt was sad­ dled on the country by the waste and extravagance of the administration,- particularly,during war.- but still con-- tinning. The revenue derived from Income and excess profits taxes dur-' Ing the fiscal yeaij amounted to $3,944,- 555,737. This was a heavy handicap to place upon industry struggling to- rench a normal^ status. The American people never .again should be called upon to pay such a tax bill and-much of It could have been avoided this time by the administra­ tion which is asking the people for. a new lease of life. With the . reason­ able economy promised by its oppos­ ing party it should Ite possible to re­ duce the tax burden from year to year as that party reduced them after the Civil war. To see that it is done Sen­ ator Harding has pledged his brains; his strength and his sacred honor. Asheville. Corn $2.00 bu; wheat $2.50 bu; Irish potatoes $6.00 bbl.

In nn editorial In which it speaks of Governor Coolidge donning the work­ ing garb of his forefathers and toil­ ing, as the? did. ip the fields, the New York Times, Democratic, says of the Republican candidate "far vice presi­ dent: “In putting it on Governor Cool­ idge honors a vanished race of clear­ headed. ironical, independent and most desirable citizens. He Iiqs their cour­ age, their honesty, their shrewdness, ■ their capacity for hard work, their pub­ lic spirit. There is no political mas­ querading about him. He has gone back to the old place. It has inter­ ested him to, don , his grandfather’s working clothes.

When you feel bilious, sluggish, con­ stipated and all knocked out and be­ lieve you need a dose of dangerous cal­ omel just remember that your druggist sells for a few cents a large bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone, which is entirely vegetable and pleasant to take and is a perfect substitute, for calomel.

In 1818 Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth f '"Iv Slauton called a woman suffrage convention at Seneca Falls, N. Y„ which launched a “Declaration of Sen­ timents'’ and passed a resolution .de­ manding equal suffrage. These are two Immortal names in American history. .Lucretla Cofiin Mott (1793-18S0) was born In Nan­ tucket, Mass.. of Quaker parents. Aft­ er teaching, she became “an acknowl­ edged minister” of the' Friends. She married James Mott, who worked with “is wife against slavery.

Un­ dismayed, she • carried the campaign to congrqss and to the states. During the Civil war she demanded, that wom­ en be given equal rights with* the new­ ly enfranchised negroes.. The answer she got w as: . “This Is the negro’s hour.” For several years after the Civil war Miss Anthony endeavored to secure an interpretation of the four­ teenth nnd fifteenth amendments which would nllow women to vote. Finally, In 1872 at Rochester, N. Y;, she tried to force an Interpretation by voting at the polis. She was arrested and fined? She refused to pay the fine, b.ut was not sent to JaiL In 1875 Miss Anthony drafted the amendment to the Constitution which has now been : ratified. In 1878 the amendment was.introduced in the sen­ ate'by Senator Sargent-of California. It was defeated in 1887 and thereafter was not even debated In congress un­ til 1914. 'During the years the constitutional amendment campaign was making no progress the women won many vic­ tories in the states. They secured fuir suffrage In Wyoming (1869), Colorado, Utnh and Idaho -’(1894),- Washington (1910),.California (1911), Kansas, Ari­ zona nnd Oregon (1912), Montana.and, Nevada (1914), New York-(1917), Ok­ lahoma, South Dakota and Michigan (1918). They won presidential suf­ frage In Illinois (1913), Nebraska, Rhode Island and North Dakota (1917), Iowa, Wisconsin, Indiana, Maine, Minnesota, Missouri and Ten­ nessee (1919) and Kentucky (1920). Partinl suffrage prevails in many of the states. In Illinois, for example, women vote for candidates Tor all of­ fices not mentioned by the state con­ stitution. ' 1 ' _ The National American Woman Suffrage association In 1912 opened headquarters in Washington’ and be­ gan an active campaign for the passage of the amendment. In 1916 it established branch headquarters there which were devoted entirely to the amendment campaign. The National AVoman’s party, or­ ganized in 1910 by Alice Paul, estab­ lished AVashington headquarters' In' 1913 nnd introduced the militant iDto the campaign. Alice Paul—the third Quakeress tb immortalize herself—Is the spectacu­ lar figure of the struggle. She Is a practical politician and developed the deadliest card index on members of congress that practical politics has ever seen. Pretty soon she was serv­ ing notice through -the AVhite House pickets that the president was the “man higher up.” The arrest of near­ ly 500 of these pickets and the’ imposi­ tion of jail senteSfces had no effect. Incidentally MisssPaul herself served seven terms in jail. The amendment was beaten three times In the senate anti once In,the 'house before it was finally passed by the Sixty-sixth congress June 4, 1919,' .by the necessary two-thirds majority. The resumption of woman suffrage work after the Civil war was marked by the organization in 1869 of two na­ tional organizations: National AVom- an Suffrage association, with Mrs. Stanton and Miss Anthony leaders and headquarters in New York; American Woman Suffrage association, with Mary A. Livermore, Julia Ward Howe and Lucy Stone leaders and headqunr-. ters In Boston. The line of division was this:, The former wished to concentrate .on the passage of a con­ stitutional amendment; the latter was In' favor of obtaining the suf­ frage through amendments to state constitutions. In 1890 the tvfo organ­ izations were united under the name of National f American Woman Suf- fage Association, ' and work ; was pushed along both lines of endeavor. Mrs; Stanton was president until 1892. Mlss Anthony served until I960, resigning nt the age of ,eighty. Mrs. Can-ie! Chapman Catt 1 was its head, 19(jp-1904. Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, recently deceased and possibly best loved of all the leaders—n wom­ an of transcendent gifts nnd elo- quenee—was president until 1915. Mrsi Catt was then again chosen. Mrs. Frank Leslie left a large legacy to Mrs. Catt to be used In the work. The , National association made ar­ rangements at the St. Louis conven­ tion of 1919 to dissolve‘-its organiza­ tion and become (he League of AVom- en Voters.- These arrangements be­ came effective at the Chicago conven­ tion In .February last. . • sscS j y r lo w By CLIFFORD S.

Is Jed drinking ' too much for my heglth?” '■ At that moment no possible amount of liquor would have b&en too much for Jed. The wretch must have thought I was a ghost ' "Jed may drink himself -tb death,; for all me,” I said. fllThat probably is the best, end .he can come to. I think he'is gallows meat, but I want to talk to hlin when you can spare hlnj.” 11AVe can’t spare- Jed to have hijn hangedj” said Mr.-Sidney. “He's too useful. AVho else could drink my wine of an evening? Go along with' the doctor, Jed, and see what he wants. It's probably a matter of pills or pow­ ders for me.” Jed was recovering from his shock, but he'still showed the effects of it. “No hurry,” I said. “I’d rather wait a half hour. I’ll be In my room.” I went there and wrote two letters. Both were to one point. They related circumstantially w hat; had happened that afternoon. One I addressed to' a lawyer I knew, and the other to Dr. Brownell. Jed knocked at the door as I finished them. He was stilly un- nervedi “I have ■ something I want you to read,”' I said, and gave him the letters. He read them and moistened his lips. “You don’t neOd to talk, Jed,” I. said.' 1TIl do all the talking that's neces­ sary. I am not going away. I am go­ ing to stay right here, and you;d better be very careful of my health. These letters go out tonight. • The men who get them will keep their mouths shut so Ibng as I am alive.

Jed came to me the next day In one- of his candid moods. “I did shnot at you yesterday,” he said. . 11I know, you did,!’ I replied. 11Anil': you’re' ivonderlng why and you're wondering if' I intend, to do it again:” , ■ ' “ji don’t wonder at anything you do.” I said, "And you know that if ymi'; do it again, the evidence Is pre­ pared against you. I think I am per­ fectly safe. I know you are a cow- ard/’ o “No, I’m not a coward,” he said, as If he were stating a fact and not; mak­ ing a boast. “I Sever do anything withouLa purpose, .and when I have a purpose, I do it no matter what the consequences; may be. • The reason I wanted to shoot you was because you Were engaged to Isobel. I intend to marry Isobel. Now I know that you are not going to, m arry. Isobel. You are just the foolish fence that her mother' thought she could build up around Isobel and keep me from try­ ing to marry her. Isobel "doesn’t want you. She is, laughing at you. So we might as well be friends again.” “You’preposterous old fool t” I said. “You senile'alcoholic I You are va vio­ lation of decepcy. You enfeebled, ex­ asperating old goat I You AvouId sicken the moral .conscience of a mummy. If you ' ever, associate your aspirations with the name of Miss Sidney again, n l cut your throat with a paper knife.” , J^d. smiled and made me feel -ridlcu-i Ious.'.■ : '■ ■ ■ ■; “I am a more intelligent man th.an you,’’ he said/; 11You are too simple for Uie complexities of life. You could'not' possibly be sufficient for a girl of Miss Sldaejr1S character. She would die of boredom in six months. There is noth­ ing preposterous about my candidacy for Miss Sidney. I am older than I’d like to be, but that is all.” “You are a hideous old fool,” I said, “but I think I can handle you, and I give you warning.” •*I am going to be quite friendly,” said Jed. “You flatter yourself,” I said. 11AVell,'anyway,” he said; 1Tm friend­ ly.” •He proved to be so. The life of the bouse went placidly from day to day. Isobel, with a sense of our posturing toward each other, made mocking ges­ tures of affection which shocked her mother. She particularly delighted tp. demonstrate, when Jed was serving dinner. I thought she would end by getting me shot In the back, but Jed had rated me finally as unimportant, which did'd y egotism no good.- For such a rascal to discard me, formally betrothed as I was to isobel, in his scandalous pursuits of that beautiful girl, was preposterous.' If-Mrs. Sidney had known that I was idiotically in love with Isobel, she would not have sought relief from her distress by the arrangement which made me her daughter's protective -fiance. The only thing I could take credit for In this absurd situation was that Mrs. Sidney was" not allowed to know the state of my feelings. I was as sensible as a corrupting* ro­ manticism would permit me to be. I knew that any affection I might place in this fashion was a real and serious emotional vice, which if not controlled might lead to unhappiness. That con­ sciousness had steadied me, but it had not delivered me. * Isobel walked brightly through the old house of tragedy—as surely it was, however hidden , the tragedy. She was -the glint of sunshine in the aisles of the dark woods, the'odor of' roses against the wall. She had the charm of the hollyhocks, the freshness of the hepatica in the spring, the beauty of the wild rose in June. If,I showed my feeling more than a liver sausage shows a soul, I hope I may be punished, AVhat I thought of Isobel was my own affair, so loiig as I kept it strictly my own affair." I took myself in hand with as much energy and promptness as I could, fol­ lowing the announcement of our en­ gagement. I did not want to confess myself a fool. I diif not intend to do so if I could help it. . I overdid it. I became disagreeable. I kept as much out of Isobel’s presence as possible. I never willingly was alone with her. I did my best to avoid meeting her or speaking to her. Isobei met the situation with her natural frankness after I had been giving this demonstration of myself for some time. “Doctor,” she. said, “this household necessarily imposes friendships upon the people In it. I wonder if we cpuld not. be a little more agreeable to each other.” • I did not know what to say. Ihoped not to be a hypocrite, nnd I did not want to be absurd. . • “I shall be glad to be as agreeable us I can,” I said after some mental stuttering. "I (rant to be, but I ,am so awkward.” - “I want to be, too,’" said Isobel; "and if we both want to be, we shall not have to glower at each other every time we meet. Even mother does not require it and father would detest it.” AVithout saying anything more, she made me see that I had used a cheap device to escape the consequences of a foolish affection. The girl in a very friendly fashion had shown me that my avoidance of her was marked, cool and unreasonable. It was wholly rea­ sonable from my poor standpoint, but from no other. I saw that I. was meeting my difficul­ ty by running away from it, and I not only did not like the timidity of escape In this fashion, but furthermore, I did not like the’Opinion Isobel formed of me because of It. I had to face the music, and1 after that I did. It ought not to have astonished me that I felt better instantly. I knew that a cow­ ard only increased his troubles. I imagine if I had not seemed such a professional stick, such a thing aloof from human emotions, Isobel would have been* merely friendly and kind. As it was. she was tantalizing. She liked me well enough, but that meant very little. , If she did/not drive, ride, walk or play tennis with me, she had a choice of the servants. If was I or nothing, - I was with Mr. Sidney a number of hours every day. They varied, some­ times seV-en pr eight a day In different periods, sometimes three or four; Very little of this time was occupied In pro­ fessional duty. Life at Hartley house would have been intolerably lonesome if I had been there merely as a prac­ titioner.’ Aiid therefore I welcomed a routine that waS outside my profes­ sion. Mr. Sidney had a delicacy of perception which told him when at­ tention-upon even so amiable an in­ valid might.be drawing-upon the phys­ ical reserve of the people waiting npon him or being w|th him. He. always managed that they never should feel the fatigue of It, ffe .saw. no company at Hartley house. AVe made no calls and received none.' AVe extended no invitations and received none. The estate was baron­ ial, and it had baronial, habits, but it brought no friends to the doors. It was nearly always with regard to Isobel that the condition seemed un­ natural. For an invalid like-Mr. Sid­ ney it was natural enough. Mrs. Sid­ ney was wholly devoted to him; I was engaged in professional duties; and for Jed and the servants in the house, it was natural to be content with what! they had of life or with the perform­ ance of duties for which they were paid and which they might abandon at will. But-this was Isobel’s life.' She was young, vibrant, beautiful, but vistas opening into human prospects were closed to her. And she was en­ gaged to a piece of professional dead wood who happened to be the only masculine thing available when her mother was In great distress. Later Isobel said that as a' woman she knew of course that I loved her, but this Is evident- fiction. She did no such thing, and it would be an Ui kindness to her to think so. AVhat? was only comedy-if I were, as she thought I was, an indifferent, unfeel­ ing man, would have been cruelty if it had-been known that the position was mockery of denied hopes. Isobel used me to gain her liberty. She affected familiarities and called me “John” derisively, or worse “dear” or “old dear.” I protested, In more pain than she could guess. ' 11AVe are engaged," she said. 11AVhat should I call .you?” “You might consider the fact that we are not engaged.” I suggested. 11Biit we are. If we don’t act as if we were, you’ll not be any protection against Jed. Don’t you want me to call you John?” “Of course I do,” I said. “It’s per­ fectly straightforward, natural and proper.” - “Then it’s the 'dear1 and 'old dear’ you object to, and I perfectly delight in calling you ’old dear.’. It fits so &• Isobel Used Me to Gain Her Liberty. well—it is really wonderful. It is al­ most a complete description as well as a charming appellation. I adore it.” “I object to unnecessary freedom,” I said. “But it helps to deceive Jed.” “Nothing deceives Jed. He was de­ ceived only for a short while. Tlien he tried to kill me. He apologized after­ ward for his mistake. He knows the character of our engagement.” “Just the same, he has not bothered mother since then as he did before.” “That is because he. is a coward and I have him where I can control him.” Mrs. Sidney did not. understand her daughter. That was not astonishing; Isobel was a young American woman; Mrs. ^Sidney had Spanish traditions. Isobel' came naturally, through her father, to a candor which never ceased to amaze and—occasionally—to dis­ tress her mother. Isobel said what she thought. Her frankness came from honesty of character. Her lovely mother regarded life as something to be managed by reticence and denial. Mrs. Sidney was esthetic, and if a fact. were nnesthetic, she denied it and put it out of her consideration. It was, to her. the'only proper thing to do. Isobel was it clever tennis-player and I a poor one. She beat me three or four sets every fine afternoon. She liked to drive a car and ride a horse. I drove and TOde1With her. AVhen Isobel said for the first time that she wanted to take me for a drive In the car, her mother made a gesture of dismay. Isobel stood before her and smiled. - “You know-we are engaged, mother,” she said.- I thought of the hen at the pond's edge seeing her brood of ducklings in, the water. Mrs. Sidney was not In a panic and she did not flutter, but her distress was acute. She knew the girl- had to develop and she knew that she Iihd to live In North, not South Amer­ ica. But knowledge, is not a complete anodyne to pain. *. . IsoDei took her mother’s hand and kissed IL and. then her lips. SIiesmiied In such ah honest, frank, perceptive fashion—I know that a smile: can con­ tain ail the human understanding In the world, because I saw Isobel’s—and then, holding her mother’s hand, she allowed Mrs. Sidney to have the mo­ ment of distress with tlje intimate sup­ port of her own presence. It may seem a small struggle that mother and daughter went through, but it did not seem small to me who Witnessed it, and it had no rhetorical pud little emotional expression. Isobel knew her mother suffered, but she was wise. Mrs. Sidney dreaded her daughter's adopted mode of life, but knew her daughter. “Good-bye, mother,” said Isobel. 11AVo sha’n’t be gone long. Come on, John.” That was the first’ time she had called me John honestly and without comedy. I knew her finesse. She did it to give her mother the comfortable sense that she was not going upon a wild adventure of an automobile ride with an unrelated man but was within e strict intimacy of the family. AVe went driving, Isobel at the wheel. >he liked to drive fast and I do not. I am timid. I do not think that loco­ motion Is a genuine human pleasure. Possibly it is, behind either a fast or a plodding horse. I prefer the plodding horse. Locomotion then merely reveals gradually changing facets of the scene r one likes to see-the manifold aspects of a landscape unfold. But an auto­ mobile driven as Isobel wanted to drive it revealed no facets. It merely blurred the vision and gave the idea that the ^satisfaction sought was a cer­ tain amount of wind blown In the faces. For such as love IL not for me! “That was a difficult scene, doctor,1* she said. I knew that was what she would call me next—“doctor.” I came di­ rectly down out nt the clouds. 1T know it was,” I said, “and I ad­ mired the honest way In which you managed it.” “I think I shall continue to call you John just that way,” she saitl. 1Tt seems more honest and decenL After all, we are engaged.”* • ' * * . • * • fM Sometimes Mr. Sidney could bo taken out in an automobile, of a warm, fair afternoon. It was not often that his strength permitted this, but when­ ever it did, I was glad not onfe- to al­ low but to suggest that he make use of all opportunities. ’ The most beautiful of our river drives brought us, within the limitation 'of Mr. Sidney’s strength, to the peni­ tentiary nt Alwick. It was a hideous structure of barracks, work-rooms and 'walls, of cells and armed guards; but it was In lovely surroundings, and if ^we took the best roads, we came natur­ ally to the prison walls. Mr. Sidney would. look at the en­ closure and the guards In the turrets as if interpreting his own life in the terms of prison existence. AVe may have taken this drive by the prison road ten times when, approaching it on another of our outings, Mr. Sidney had the driver stop at the entrance. “I feel very strong and well today,- doctor,” he said, “and if you do. not object, I think I should like to go in­ side. I have seen the outside so many times, I have a curiosity to see the in­ side.” . • • I .consented, thinking that with Jed and me helping him—we acted as his legs, guiding and sustaining his feeble motions—he was strong enough to make the effort. I did not know whether it was good or bad pyschology to give him a sight of so many impris­ oned men. hut my instinct suggested that it would, in his case, be good., He was a logical, reasoning man—a rare phenomenon in the human race. If he had been emotional nnd sentimental. I -should have had more doubt. Mr. Sidney was important enough to be known In the neighborhood. The warden of the prison came to meet him In the office as soon as we had entered. He was very cordial to Mr. Sidney, who himself never showed more his aristocracy of democracy. I am a democrat I am most fond - of an aristocratic democrat Such was Mr. Sidney. Mr. Sidney visits the peni­ tentiary. CIO Sc.

A light was placed in the piano to drive out the dampness, and the ■ piano caught on fire and was badly damaged. Quick work by those in the build­ ing saved the contents of the room and the house. Despite the inelement weather a number of Davie citizens jrumeyed to the StateTest Farm, near States­ ville last Friday. The day was well spent looking over the growing crops, the fine poultry, sheep, hogs, cattle, horses, etc. Superintendent Meachem gave the party warm welcome and spent the day showing them around. He has the thanks of those present for his hospitality. A melon feast, plenty of lemonade and fine grapes were enjoyed by the visitors. Those who missed this trip were out of luck. } It was worth much to all those who .took the time to go.
