he said, with humorous gleam in his eye. "Go easy on me. Don't forget I'm her father"
 Bud laughed through the flush that rose in his cheeks
 "No, I won't forget that. But have you decided what to tell Peabody and Stevens as your plan of action if they come in here at 12:30Y
 "If they come?" exclaimed Langdon 'Ihey'll come. Watch 'em."
 Then he hesitated worriodly.
 "Pll have to incubate an idea be- tween now and noon somehow. But don't forget this, Bud-we're worried about them, true enough, but they're worried a heap more about us"
 Senator Langdon stepped into an ad- Joining room, where he could be alone, to "incubate.''
 AS Haines resumed his work Caroli- na Langdon entered.
 Avoiding the secretary's direct gaze, she asked for her father.
 "He ought to be back shortly, Miss Langdon," responded H&ineS. You can wait here. I must ask pardon for leav- ing, as I must run over to the library"
 AS the secretary bowed himself out of the door he almost cOllided with Congressman Norton. Both glared al each other and remained silent

CHAPTER XXV.

CAROLINA LANGDoN's $ RENUNCIATIoN. |" ENATOR LANGDON'S commit tee room at the capitol present
 ed busy scene at an unusual Az ly early hour the morning after the entertainment at his home. Bud Haines, reinstated as secretary, was picking up the thread of routine where he had dropped it the day before, though his frequent thought of Hope and the words that had thrilled him ''I love you, 1 love you fondly''-made this task unusually difficult. He i'm patiently wished the afternoon to hasten along, as he knew he would then see her in the senate gallery, where she would go to hear her fla thers speech.
 This speech had to be revised iD some particulars by Bud, and the work he knew would take up much of his morning. The senator's speech was 1.-The South of the Future," which he would deliver when recognized by the president of the senate in connection with the naval base bill, that officer having agreed to recognize Langdon at
 
 naval affairs committee would be re- ceived. Just how Langdon would turn the tables on Peabody and Stevens and yet win for the Altacoola site not even the ex-newspaper man, experienced ill politics, had solved. Clearly the sena tor would have to do some tall think ing during the morning.
 The junior senator from Mississippi burst into the office with his habitual cheery greeting, his broad brimmed black felt hat in it's usual position on the back of his head, like a symbol of undying defiance.
 "A busy day for us, eh, senator" Gueried Bud.
 'Now, look here, my boy, don't be- gin to remind me of work right off,"

Norton started toward Carolina, q look of apprehension on his face He gathered from the trend of her words and her demeanor that she had turned against him.
 You couldn't be so cruel, Carolina" he protested.
 "Charlie." she went on determinedly II will always cherish our friendship, our happy younger days down in Mis- siSsippi. but must give up thinking of you as my future husband. We've both made mistake, mine probably greater than yours, but I now am convinced that I should not marry you.

In the beautiful Berkshire Hills of Massachusetts is made the finest writing paper in the world. This has been the writing paper center of the United States for over a century. It-was selected by the pioneer manufacturers on account of the clear atmosphere and the abundance of pure, sparkling spring water, both indispensable requisites for the making of really good paper.
 The Eaton, Crane x Pike writ ing papers are to- day the best that are "made in Berkshire," which means that they are the best in the world. If we could obtain better papers we would do so. We can not, neither can you.
