MARY,
MAVERICK
By A. MARIA CRAWFORD

There had been no quarrel. AS U.S.
ual Mary had answered his letter I'M
mediately, but no reply had gone to
her. Pride kept her from inquiry.
Only her mother could read between
the lines of her paragraphs In the
daily papers and her stories In the
magazines. and knew her hurt.
1T had been a college love affair
that later matured in warm intimate
friendship. Bob Heiskell had gone to
the southwest and succeeded In build
ing up a great gin business In the cot
ton belt Mary Gaines letters had
kept him In touch with the old home
place and with that period Of his life
when youth generously squanders her
time on dreams. He had never strug-
gled through business fight without
feeling that a part Of his conquering
strength came from the brave, en-
thusiastic help that his college mate
gave. He could turn at will from the
endless. dun-colored plains to, an in
MIGRATING breath Of the mountains as
she saw them every day. There was
a vigorous uplift even in the memory
of them.
A year of silence went by and then
one day the girl was invited to visit
in the very town where he lived. She
had met the CAROLS at resort In
the mountains where she and her
mother were spending part Of the
summer They insisted on taking her
home with them for fortnight's visit
and she had decided to 90.
She did not ask about Heiskell.
even tried to persuade herself that
she hoped he would have moved from
there, yet she knew that she was
glad when she caught a glimpse OF
him as she drove from the station.
Mrs. Carroll mentioned his name as
ran over a list Of guests for dinner
she planned to give.
y am going to have about dozen
OF our young people for dinner tomor.

And Them

A woman who does her own house
work was invited out to dinner the
other night, and when she rose from
the table, remarked:
Well 1t is pleasant to eat some
thing that l didn't cook"
Indeed 1t is" said her husband,
before he bethought himself Of con-
hequences.

YeweIl Speaks to a Small Crowd al
the Court House.

Hon. Tandy 0. YewelI, of Carroll
county, candidate for Lieutenant
Governor. spoke to a crowd which,
with most liberal estimate could
not have been over l5O. Thursday
night.
Mr.. Yewell was introduced by
Hon. NJ. Mccullough, of Brookhav-
en-, and at once waded into his dis
sertation of over two hours length.
The purpose of his speech all the
way through was to defend the
secret caucus of 1910. Vardaman
and Bilbo were roundly denounced
as breeders of strife and discord.
He has no differences with his op-
ponent, Nash.
Mr.. Yewell is a plain, terse
speaker but lacks in personal
magnetism and enthusiasm and at
times is rather slow and halting in
his speech. The applause he re-
ceived which was always after some
joke or witty sally helped to relieve
the monotony.
He said Bilbo lacked the moral
courage think Of IT'D to meet him
on the stump and deprecated what
he averred was the cowardliness of

AUGUST TRADE
DAY is NEXT
A Parade Of Candidates
and Talk F est to Be
Features.

4
Next Trade Day will take place
on August 5th, three days after the
first primary. Lincoln county
will then contain about 49 glad
men-at least twice that number Of
very sad mortals and probably two
or three lucky ones who will be
exceedingly glad over the fact Of
not having to make the race again
in the second primary.
The Trade Day Committee has
decided to devote one Trade Day to
politics. 1t will be given in the
interest Of the county officers ex-
clusively. Every candidate dead,
or alive" from and including
those running for the district at
torneyship, down to the constable
ship. is invited to be present and
show himself to the anxious voters
that day. Each one who desires to
do so will be allowed to appear on
the rostrum and say a few words
to the dear people.
No State candidates will be per-.
United to make a speech. They
can join in the procession and talk
on the street corners. but cannot
talk from the rostrum. They can
only parade and mingle or sit on
the rostrum labeled as follows: !:
Dumb" if eligible for the second
primary; Dead. !" if not eligible.
We want all the candidates,
whether dead "or alive" to join
with US on Trade Day, Saturday,
August 5, 1911. and make jolly
good day of it. If you are win
ner it will do you good to meet,
mingle and speak to the people:
and if you are an 'salso ram it
will do you no harm to show that
you are able to take defeat grace
fully. 1t won't be so long until
the next one, so keep on the good
side of the voters.
He likes you just as we'll in de-
feat as he did when you were a
husky. hustling candidate. and
he'll change his mind probably ten
times between August, 1911, and
August, 1915. Let's all go IN to-
gether and have rollicking good
time.
The program will be as follows:
Band; mounted police: city off
cials on horseback: winners No. l.;
the very successful candidates.
(only one to a hill; winners No. 2.
the successful candidates, those
that come two in a hill; the af
winners the also rams: the
voters.
Note The successful Candidates
will walk but the others mag ride
either in wagons, buggies, autoino
biles or ambulances, just as their
feelings suggest.
The candidates will be allowed to
wear badges or carry banners, pro-
vided the wording on same does not
contain any allusion to the Secret
Caucus, "the Peoples Choice,
or My War Record. /"

THE MARCH OF CIVILIZATION.

This expression, so common among
the orators in Hyde Park and which,
we believe, is used by Mr.. Buckle,
finds eXemplifcation in a dispatch
published by a Paris contemporary to
the effect that Constantinople is to
have the telephone. Under the reign
of Abdul Hamid some Eastern mer-
chants tried time after time to intro
duce the instrument. The Sultan al
ways met them with direct refusal,
and this Notwithstanding the strong
representations that were made to his
majesty by the ambassadors, who,
during the summer months, reside at
Therapia, about a dozen miles from
their embassies. Following upon the
disappearance of Abdul Hamid is the
advent of the telephone. Our Paris
contemporary expresses the hope that
the young ladies of the telephone at
Stamboul and at Pera will not be so
slow as their sisters in Paris in an
swering calls.

TIE FEMALE HOUSE ELY.

A female house fly which has hiber-
mated in a clearinghouse, or else
where, may produce in the spring, at
the lowest estimate, 100 eggs. Assum-
ing that one-half of these hatch as fe-
males, and allowing that the breeding
goes on without check for four
months, we have as the descendants
Of a single alternating individual 215,-
557,S4432O,O 1000, 100000 flies. Now
house fly measures exactly one-fourth
of an inch in length: the distance
around the earth at the equator is said
to be 24,S00 miles. 1t would take,
therefore, 3,6SS,312O0O flies placed
end to end to go around the world
once. Using this number as a denom-
inator, and the number of flies pro-
duced in four months from one moth
er as a numerator, we find she will
give rise, in the course of a summer,
to enough flies to encircle the globe
at the equator 5000 times, and have
plenty of progeny to spare-Profes-
sor F. L. Washburn in Popular Sci
ence Monthly.
