He resumed his position again, COW

on me-"
She placed her round white hand,
with taper fingers, over her eyes in
becoming fashion and said:
You are not thinking of anybody
that is, anybody but yourself. You
are thinking how when your vacation
comes you go up to the lakes and find
new girl who will be silly enough to
trust you implicitly
"What'n you be doing all that time?"
Don't break the spell. I'm mind
reading. I'm telling you what you're
thinking about. And you'll leave her,
come back here and devote yourself
to-
Edith Harrison?
This was bit of prod. A severe
expression came back to her face
DO you suppose that care how de-
voted you are to Edith Harrison"
And she snapped her fingers viciously
Certainly not. 1t is the new girl up
at the lakes who was silly enough to

There was no reply to this-that is,
nothing more than a pout

eleven for a miserable total of rs.
The inning of the Philadelphians
opened with King and White at the
bat, and the team compiled the fine

they were behind and scored % of

Waterproof SHINGLES.

Shingles are now made under a pat
ented process from asbestos fiber and
portland cement. Owing to the enor-
nous pressure under which the
shingles are manufactured, it is said
that they absorb, wnen fresh, only
about fave per cent. of their weight
of water; and when exposed to the
atmosphere for a year or two that
nydration and subsequent crystalliza-
ton make them absolutely impermea-

COMMISSION GIVES BOND.
Amount Placed by Judge Pritchard at

Columbia Stale, 10Th.
The three members of the State
diSpcnsary commission yesterday filed
the required bond ordered bv Judge
Pritchard amounting TO &175.00O. The
bond was made through j. II. Rollin
Il Co.. the Columbia representatives
Of the United States Fidelity and
Guaranty company Of Baltimore. and
tins action practically v settles the case
until the court Of appeals or perhaps
the United States supreme court
passes upon the validity of the order
issued by Judge Pritchard. which held
that his court had jurisdiction over
the dispcnsary funds.
In recent order issued by Judge
Prltchard the bond was reduced from
T2o0.ooo TO $4,000 and that part Of
the order requiring the commission
10 turn over the $S00.00O in securities
to the federal court or to the rcceiv-
crs was revoked. Otherwise the COM
mission would not have changed it's
original plan, which was that no bond
could be given for the securities now
in the State treasury.

PART FOUR.

Then with matchless cloqucnce and
pathos Boy gave most touching and
convincing recital of all her many
toublcs. How "papa' had toiled
and sutfcred-ncver ,nurmuring or
complaining. How she had tried so
hard to get school and had so mis-
crably failed. How she had read the
wantcd' columns of the city papers,
hoping vainly to find that some one
wanted girl. but. nn--all the
"wants' were for boys, boys. How
she had at last decided "to be a
boy' and how she had so completely

"Boy, I've set my heart on taking
you into society and shall not give it
up without a struggle" turning her
face from those yearning eyes.
"Well, Aunt, you'll have to give it
