There's q quarter of million dollars

what he said. And Mr. Foster is the
state treasurer, and he's gone fishing"
"Ffshing?"
He left word he had gone fishing.
Mr.. Foster and papa don't get along
together. and Mr. Bassford says he's

Ardmore's grin broadened. The Ap-

Ardmore read Gov. Dangerfield's

the space for the date on which the
