CHAPTER XIV.
The New Days Come.

One afternoon in the late autumn
Annie was sitting watching Hyde
playing with his dog, big mastlff OF
noble birth and character The crea-
ture sat erect with his head leaning
against Hyde, and Hyde's arm was
thrown around his neck as he talked
to him of their adventures on the
Broad that day.
Outside there was in the air that
November feeling which chills like
the passing breath Of death. But in
the house Annie and Hyde and the dog
sat within the circle of warmth and
light made by the blazing ash logs,
and in that circle there was at least
an atmosphere of sweet content. Sud-
denly George looked up and his eyes
caught those of Annie watching him.
what have you been reading, An
nie?" he asked, as he stopped forward
and took thin volume from her lap.
,"Why!" he cried, "tis Paul and Vir-
ginia. Do you read love stories?"
"Yes. The mystery of a love af-

shall not tire of love stories till we

Love has been cruel to me. 1t

You still love Cornelia?"

so hopeless. However as l see no end

Why Robinson Was Deserted by His
Acquaintances.

Ruggles-Poor old Robinson! It's
sad, the saddest thing in the world,
perhaps, to see a man deliberately
ALLEVIATE his friends, estrange his fam
lily, and make himself an outcast and
a horror to everybody, an do 1t sim
ply to crafty whim, too.
Struggles-Why, what do you mean?
l saw him not so very many days ago,
and he seemed perfectly happy, and he
told me he never was more prosperous
in all his life.
Ruggles-Yes. that's just it. Poor
fellow! He's one of those weak-kneed
men who can't stand prosperity, ap-
parently. AS soon as they get few
dollars-well, you know the rest.
Struggles-Do you mean he's drink
ing too much?
Ruggles-No. No, indeed. It's pos
sible to feel some sympathy for man
who can't resist that temptation. But
poor old Robinsonl It's different with
him.
Struggles-You can't mean that he's
in the tolls of a siren? He's too de-
voted a husband and father for suck
an escapade.
Ruggles-No. oh, no. One could
wean him perhaps in time from such
miserable infatuation, If it we're pos
sible to think of him in such an en-
tanglement. But there seems to be nc
hope in his case.

The Tariff as a Business
Proposition.

No industry can flourish without
a demand for its product, and the
greater the demand for its product
the more it will flourish. And this
is true of the entire massed indus
les of the country. The greater
the aggregate demand for their pro.
duct, the more they will all flourish.
But the massed industries of the
country are simply the country it.
self, wherein every American finds
employment and wages. So the
greater the demand for the products
of domestic industries the greater
the comfort and the happiness Of
the whole people.
But what is ''demand?" Merely
the expressio of want of some
commodity. What is the CONNER
cial representative of this demond?
Simply money. Money, represent
ing all forms of goods in a, univer-
sal barter, is practically the only
form in which commercial demand
tinds expression in these latter days.
Therefore, the greater the volume
Of the country's sound money, and
the more widely it is distributed as
wages, the more facile, fluent,
abuedant and certain is the demand
on thN products of our industries.
Now anything which lessons the vol
ume of our sound money in domes
tic circulation, or narrows the cir
Gle of its dirtribution, lessons the de
mand for the products of our indus
tries.
Open the ports by Free Trade,
and out goes your demand in a
wasteful stream of the country's
money to be soaked up by the cheap
supply Of the rest of the earth, and
Doth its volume and the circle OF its
distribution are lessened at home.
Close the ports by Protection, and
not only does your own money re
main within the gates, 10 flow in
| | quld demand upon all our indus
ries, and so distribute itself more
and more widely, but more money
flows in from abroad to avail itsel
of investment in our rich domestic
market, and we not only get sounC
national prosperity in universal do
nestle employment, but we get ou
foods in the end al the price whicl
will return to capital rate of int II
est as low as that paid anywhere ol
.arth. This is question for bust
ness men to settle.-Economist.

Third District Congressman.

This talk about Geo. Cole butting
into the congressional fight in this
district is probably all little hot
air gossip by the space filters. Phil
Campbell is entitled to longer
term than two years if he makes a
reasonable showing and seems Q
be gaining in popularity all over
the district. The fact that he did
not care to ally himself with any
faction in the party strengthens him
with the Third District people.
This district is not very factlonal.

Republican party in the state than
