us. Say Mr. Harnlsh That You Whipped Roundly

by the smoothly operating ma
chine of a lackey who Inhabited the
place, while Dowsett took Scotch and
soda and Daylight a cocktail. Leon
Guggenhammer arrived In the midst
Of the drink, and ordered Scotch. Day
light studied him curiously. This was
one of the great Guggenhammer fam
lily; younger one, but nevertheless
one Of the crowd with which he had
locked grapples in the North. Nor
did Leon Guggenhammer fail to men,
ton cognizance of that old affair. He
complimented Daylight on his PROV
ess-"The echoes of Ophir came down
to us, you know. And ! must say. Mr..
Daylight-er, Mr.. Harnish. that you
whipped us roundly in that affair"
Leon Guggenhammer was young and
fat Not a day more than thirty, his
face, save for the adumbated pun
sacks under the eyes. was as smooth
and lineless as a boys. The talk
soon centered down to business. Dow
sett preached the plan, aided by an
occasional remark from the other two
while Daylight asked questions, What
ever the proposition was. he was go
ing into 1t with his eyes open. And
they filled his eyes with the practical
vision of what he had in mind.
Meade County news. [volume] (Meade, Kan.) 1900-1918, 1911-12-21

"They will never dream you are
with u.s." Guggenhammer interjected,
as the outlining of the matter drew to
close, his handsome Jewish eyes
flashing enthusiastically. They'll
think you are raidlng on your own in
proper buccaneer style"
"Of course, you understand, Mr.. Har-
nish, the absolute need for keeping
our alliance in the dark" Nathaniel
Letton warned, gravely.
Daylight nodded his head.
"And you also understand" Letton
went on, that the result can only
be productive of good. The thing is
legitimate and right, and the only ones
who may be hurt are the stock gam
blers themselves. 1t is not an attempt
to smash the market. AS you see your
self, you are to bull the market. The
honest investor will be the gamer"
Yes, that's the very thing" Dow
sett said. THE commercial need for
copper is continually increasing. Ward
Valley Copper, and all that 1t stands
for-practically one-quarter of the
worlds supply, as have shown you
is big thing, how big, even we can
scarcely estimate. Our arrangements
are made. We have plenty of capital
ourselves, and yet we want more.
Also, there is too much Ward Valley
out to suit our present plans. Thus
we kill both birds with one stone.
Not only will you bull Ward Valley,
but you will Mt the same time gather
Ward Valley In. This will be Of ines
Unable advantage to us, while you
and all of us will profit by 1t as we'll.
And as Mr.. Letton has pointed out,
the thing is legitimate and square.
On the eighteenth the directors meet,
and, instead of the customary divi-
dend, a double dividend will be de-
clared."
There will be all sorts Of rumors
on the street." Dowsett warned Day
light, but do not let them, brighten
you. These rumors may even origin

why clearly. But rumors are to be

sentences seemed gorged with mys-
terry. Our Mr.. Howison will call up
on you at your hotel. He is to be
trusted We must not be seen to-
gether. You will understand after we
have had our talk" Daylight conned
the words over and over. That was 1t.
The big game had arrived, and it
looked as If he were being invited to
sit in and take a hand. Surely, for no
other reason would one man so peremp-
torily invite another man to make a
journey across the continent.
They met-thanks to our" Mr..
Howison-up the Hudson, in a mag
nificent country home. Daylight, &C.
cording to instructions, arrived in a
private motor car which had been fur
nished him. Dowsett was already
there, and another man whom Day
light recognized before the introduc-
ton was begun. 1t was Nathaniel Let
ton, and none other. Daylight had seen
his face a score of times in the mag
azines and newspapers, and read about
his standing in the financial world,
and about his endowed University Of
Daratona. He, likewise, struck Day
light as a man of power, though he
was puzzled in that he could find no
likeness to Dowsett. Except in the
matter of cleanness-a cleanness that
seemed to go down to the deepest
fibers Of him-Nathaniel Letton was
unlike the other in every particular.
Thin to emaciation, he seemed cold
flame of man. Not more than fifty,
matched with sparse growth Of iron
gray hair, he looked several times the
age Of Dowsett.

JUDGED BY THEIR CLOTHES
Smart Cigar Store CLERK Ready With
Apology That by No Means

Herman Fellner tells this story on
himself, according to the New York
correspondent of the Cincinnati Times
Star. He was In Washington on busi-
ness recently and met three or four
friends on the street. After a mo-
ment's chat he beckoned them to
come with him. Pm off the stuff"
said he, but want to buy you each

They happened to be In front of a
combination cigar and news stand at
the moment. Led by Mr.. Fellner, they
all trooped in. The clerk hurried to
the cigar case to wait upon them. Be

he. Best dime smoker In town."
Mr.. Fellner is sort of fussy about
his smokes. He looked at the cigar
then showed the box away. Have
you no other price?" he asked.
The clerk showed the box In the
case. Sure thing" said he. my mis-
take and your treat"
Having pulled off this time-worn
witticism, he addressed Mr.. Fellner
confidentially. "Your clothes sort Of

Then he put another box on the coun-

PUcKERLEss PERsIMMoNs.

Apparently the scientists cannot be
prevented from robblng us Of all our
cherished traditions and privileges.
After having upset about everything
else in the world they have now dis
covered a way of taking the quicker
out of the persimmon. although why
they should have thought this neces-
sary no one seems to know. The sci
entists clearly are interfering with a
law of nature and also robbing life OF
one Of its sources of Joy. There are
few more mirth-provoking things IN
the world than watching the uniniti-
ated attempting to eat green persim-
mon. The pucker Of the persimmon
comes from tannic acid and we fall to
see what the scientists are going 10
accomplish by removing tannin from
the persimmon. One might as well eat
a cucumber and be done with 1t. The
danger In the discovery is the harm
It may do to the persimmon In the
later stage of its development. How
do the scientists know that nature did
not put the tannic acid into tho per-
simmon as one of the elements that
when the frost comes. conspires to
make the once puckery and unedible
persimmon a richer, rirer. sweeter
morsel than science ever smacked It's
lips over?
