 Something in Sylvia's eyes stopped him, and, following their direction, he turned around to find Quarrier stand ing at his elbow, icy and expression less.
 "Oh," said the aged jester, little disconcerted, 'I'm caught talking out in church, see! It was only harm less little fun, Howard"
 DO you mean you saw me-" asked Quarter, pale as sheet. You are in error. I have not been in Tiffany's in months"
 Belwether crestfalIen under the white menace of Quarters face, nod ded and essayed a chuckle without success.
 Sylvia, at first listless and uninter- ested, looked inquiringly from the ma jor to Quarter, surprised at the sup pressed feeling exhibited over so triv- ial a gaucherie. If Quarter had chosen a collar like Agatha's for her, what of 1t? But as he had not, on his own statement, what did it matter? Why should he look that way at the foolish major, to whose garrulous gossip he was accustomed and whose inability to refrain from prying was notorious enough.
 Turning disdainfully. she caught a glimpse of Plank's shocked and al- tered face. It relapsed instantly into the usual inert expression, and queer, uncomfortable perplexity began to in- wade her. What had happened to stir up these three men? Of what impor- tance was an indiscretion of an old gentleman whose fatuous vanity and consequent blunders everybody was familiar with? And, after all, How ard had not bought anything at Tiff fany's. He said so himself. But il was evident that Agatha had chanced on the collar that Belwether thought he saw somebody else examining. | She turned and looked at the dead white neck of the girl. The collar was wonderful-a miracle of pale fire. And Sylvia, musing, let her thoughts run on, dreamy eyes breeding. She was glad that Agatha's means permitted her now to have such things. It had | been understood for some years that the Caithness fortune was in rather an alarming condition. Howard had been able recently to do q favor or two for old Peter Caithness. She had heard the major bragging about it. Evident ly Mir Caithness must have improved the chance if he was able to present such gems to his daughter. And now somebody would marry her.

The above picture is a likeness Of Hon. Edwin M.
Taubman, Of Lexington, Mo, whom many Of the Re-
publicans of Saline county are supporting in his can
didacy for the nomination at the August primary as a
member Of Congress from the 7th Congressional dis
district.
Mr.. Taubman was born June End, 1868, in Lexing-
ton where he grew to manhood and has by his homes
ty, fairness and business ability made himself one OF
the leading business men Of the city and county.
Mr.. Taubman succeeded his father. the late
Robert M. Taubman, in 1898 to the presidency Of the
Commercial Bank, of Lexington, and by his close at
tention and business ability has made one Of the
strongest institutions Of the kind in the state.
Mr.. Taubman is forty years Of age. and if nomi-
mated will make a vigorous campaign Of the district
and with Taft and Sherman our national standard
bearers and our gallant leader of the state, Herbert S..
Hadley, for governor, we will carry the nation and state
and place the unshapely 7h in the Republican column.
Mr.. Taubman is both worthy and competent for the
position he seeks and with his energy and ability
coupled with the fact that he is young and active
guarantees to the Republicans of the district that there
will be a vigorous campaign and that the district
will have in the coming session of congress alive. wide
awake and competent member to look after the inter
ests Of the people and a strong supporter Of our next
Pres de 1t, William H: Taft, and the Chicago platform.

For Representative In Congress
the Republicans OF the Seventh

taking their pick OF two good
men-Edwin M. Taubman. OF our
neighboring county OF Lafayette,

Hickory county. Both ire men
OF character and ability and the
District will have a good repre-
sentative with either OF them In
Congress. Mr.. Taubman IL young
