 Campbell. One of the wooing scenes in The Clansman, Thomas Dixon's latest nov el, has its setting in Washington Clty' in the latter sixties. when Elsie stone man, the gentle daughter of vindic- tive reconstructionist, Is confidlng to Ben Cameron. her South Carolina lov- CT, her anxieties and fears as to the possible harm her father might do 10 Ben's people. Promptly he begs her to 'aeave politics alone" and to let him tell her something that counts" and 'sListen," he whispered, T was dreaming last night after I left you. of the home we'll build. Just back of our place. on the hill overlooking the river, my father and mother planted trees in exact duplicate of the ones they placed around our house when they were married. They set these trees in honor of the first-born of their love, that he should make his nest there when grown. But 1t was not for hin.s He has pitched his tent on higher ground, and the others with him. This place will be mine. There are forty varieties of trees. all grown elm, maple, oak, holly. pine. cedar, magnolia and every fruit and flower ing stem that grows in our friendly soil. A little house. built near the va cant space reserved for the homestead. Is nicely kept by a farmer, and birds have learned to build in every shrub and tree. All the year their music rings It's chorus-one long overture awaiting the coming of my bride.
 Last night l dreamed the South had risen from her ruins. l saw you there. saw our home standing amid a bower of roses. your hands had planted. The full moon wrapped 1t in soft light, while you and I walked hand in hand in silence beneath our trees. But fairer and brighter than the moon was the face of her I loved. and sweeter than all the songs of birds the music of her voice.
 And then, as Dixon tells 1t, that dig nified Northern girl repudiated her tra- dltions, lifted her face to the hand some Southern boys and said: Kiss me-"
 Reverence for woman was a religion with Ben. Unblushingly he announced as part of the catechism in which he was drilled: The chief end of man is 10 glorify the girl he loves" As 10 politics he avowed: My politics are bounded on the north by a pair of amber eyes. on the south by a dimpled chin, and on the east and west by rosy cheeks"

Tho following is received as the opinion of one of the sweetest and most influential women of Montgomery and while can't endorse it wholly can leave it to be thought over by the hostesses at card parties.
 My Dear Mrs. de Cottes:
 Cant you do something to discoar- aEe the giving of articles of lengenee. hosiery, neck wear, etc, as card party prizes? I think it points too much to the poverty of the guests who should be supposed to be able to purchase the wardrobe necessities, while the prize compliment should be extended in some article of bric-a-brac. china, or silver which could be kept as a trophy of war, or souvenir of happy occa- non.'
 'sNow, as a card club woman, I wish to enter my protest. or in event my views are overruled. wish to put In my application for pair of shoes.
 Now can not endorse the above protest, as I think hostess should not be dictated to as to the nature or prize. save perhaps by the members r;oo or her club, and that is a very question: able point. but there are few cara -don'ts" fer players and hostesses that do heartily endorse.
 Don't when a number of invited friends have received the same cordial invitation to be your guests. pick out some close friend and show more plain" Iy than you think you do, that you wish her to win your prize. Even 70 the extent of giving her an extra punch or two. Some one Is always watching. and by 1t you do her ano yourself an injustice.
 Don't have two first prizes hidden out, the handsome one to be given in event of some one worth cultivating. winning, the other not so handsome, to be 'it'' in event of the lucky one be- ing one of your obligation guests. For the occasion both are your guests and should receive equal hospitality.
 Don't, If you do not play for prizes or take punches. say to your partner when you make a ten, You may have my punch" and if your partner extends such unfair generosity to you. don't accept 1t. You did not make the ten and have no right to score by 1t aooVe some one who has made her own ten.
 Don't play carelessly to help an op- ponent who is near the prize. It is jusr as unfair as to take a punch unearned. By 1t you are being very unjust to some one. or perhaps several others who are also near the prize"
 Don't show the joker as evidence that you have euchred ten or twenty. 1t is the person who takes the first trick who euchres, and the first trick may be taken with an ace or smaller card when you must follow suit and can't play your joker.
