have to go about as she was for an
indefinite period.
She met Mr.. Holden at luncheon
downtown, as they had agreed, and
was somewhat astonished to find him
dressed in the height of fashion.
In almost the same breath she
asked how he came to be attired in
such glory in one long morning and
explained the predicament she was in

water everywhere, nor any drop to
drink
'Ready-made Clothes" he told her.
IT bought these things while the 9TH

for you. my dear"
So Mrs. Holden devoted the after
noon to buying ready lie things,
enough to enable her to face the real
ly exclusive persons she wished to
trade with without a shock to any
body concerned. And at Mr.. Holden's
instance she began her purchases of
even the ready-made things by the
display Of a large roll Of hundred
dollar bills.
Next week she hopes to get what she
thought could be had for the asking.

LAWSON APOLOGIES TO
FOSTER.

On December % a dispatch from
New York was printed in The Call
regarding Thomas w. Lawson in the
Bay State Gas litigation, referring to
the amount of money paid to settle
the Delaware suit, and stating that
$225,000 was carried down to Will
mington to be paid to various claim
ants and that among the persons who
handled the money was Roger Foster,
an attorney.
We have received note from r.
Foster stating that Mr.. Lawson has
apologized for using his name, as fol-
lows: II dealt with you in the entire
Bay State reeeivership affair In con-
nection with Mr.. Braman. and / had

The attendant smiled in profess

two years old and worn by sun, winds

looked older, and observed:

I do not blame the poor woman for

The world is full of just such men

only interfering with the harmony OF

There are hundreds of men dissipat-
ing brain force in worrying about the
coal bill, or the gas bill, or the price of
potatoes, when, by employing that
same energy in their work, they could
earn more money and have a great
sufficiency to meet all demands.
To every man who in the past has
deemed it his duty or his right to pry

his wife's management OF the home, I
would say: "Don't"-with a capital ID.

Men of His Regiment.

In my regiment, organized at the
beginning of the Spanish-Amerlcan
War, think that there were more men
whose fathers wore the gray than
there were men whose fathers wore the
blue. The only rivalry that ever en-
tered their heads was rivalry as to
which man could show himself best en-
titled to the praise of having done all
that in him lay for our country and our
flag.
I noticed that the statue of Stone
wall Jackson has been raised as gift
by certain Englishmen. The best bog
raphy of Gen. Jackson was by an Eng
lishman, Col. Henderson. 1t is curl
GUS and lamentable fact that one died
lust as he was about to undertake an
other biography, which l had earnestly
asked him to undertake. l had written
him urging that he should finish his
very remarkable military study of
Stonewall Jackson by writing militia
ry biography of Gen. Lee, and he had
written me back that he intended to do
SO. Shortly afterward learned of his
death.
Gentlemen, l cannot sufficiently ex-
press to you my deep appreciation of
the way in which you have greeted me
to-day. You cannot be nearly IS glad

to challenge as our own all of the valor,
all of the self-devotion, all of the stead

each man to see the right, shown alike

part as follows:
Mr.. Mayor, Governor and You, My

great Virginians at the time when this
nation was born-(and quote, gent :

no longer New Workers, New England
ers, Pennsylvanians or Virginians; we
are Americans; and surely, Mr.. Mayor,
the man would be but poor American
who was not touched and stirred to the
depths by the reception that | have met
with to-day in this great historic city of
America. Coming to-day by the statue
of Stonewall Jackson, in the city of Lee,
l felt what privilege it is that |, as an
American, have in claiming that you
yourselves have no more right of kin

it does not rebound to the good

ought not to be forced to inflict
punishment for such crimes, but
only determine the guilt or inno-

the party charged, and the law
should place the punishment.

should have just such men to guide and
inspire the school forces of each county

very strong man or old Casey will roll
up very strong majority for Lawhorn.
Politics should not interfere to defeat
the school interests of a county when
such material can be had.

because Prof. Lawhorn was Principal
of our school for two years, during
which time l learned of his ability. He
can handle difficult situations in many
ways and is therefore, preeminently
equipped to do great work for his ma
tive country. If the Casey voters dc

they will see that Lawhorn is harness

four years at least.
