CHAPTER XIV.
A Premature Divorce.

Suddenly Marjorie's heart gave q
leap of joy. She was having another
idea. 'I'll tell you, Harry. Well pre-,
tend to quarrel, and then"
And then you can leave me in high
dudgeon."
. The ruse struck him as a tritie un.
convincing. Don't you think 1t looks
kind of improbable on-on-sucn an
foccasion?"
: Marjorie blushed, and lowered her
eyes and her voice: Can you sug-
lgest anything better?"
) mo, but"
Then, We'll have to quarrel, darl-
ing"
He yielded for lack of a better
idea: "All right, beloved. How shall
we begin?"
On close approach, the idea did
seem rather impossible to her. How
could | ever quarrel with you, my
Ilove?" she Cooed.
! He gazed at her with a rush OF
lovely tenderness: And how could |
ever speak GROSSLY to you?"
We never shall have harsh word,
shall WEI" she resolved.
"Never!" he seconded So that
resolution passed the house unani,
mously.
They held hands in luxury while,
then she began again: Still, we must
pretend. You start 1t, love-"
7 mo. you start it," he pleaded.

The word slipped out. Mallory
started: Mess! How is 1t my fault?
Good Lord, are you going to begin
chucking it up?"
We'll, you must admit, darling,
Marjorie urged. that you've bungled
everything pretty badly"
1t was so undeniable that he could
only groan: And ! suppose I'll hear
of this till my dying day, dearest"
Marjorie had little temper all hel
own. So she defended it: If you are

tily named "Snowdrop," scenes were
lenacting that would have thrown our
Observation-Disclosures into tits-scenes
which, if we found them in France, or
Japan, we should view with alarm as
almost uncomfortable evidence OF the
moral obliquity of those nations.
But this was our own Countrywide
part of it which admits that it is the
best part-the moralest part, the
staunch middle west. This was I'LL
nois. Yet dozens Of cars were behold
ing similar immodesties in chastest
Illinois, and all over the map, thou
sands of people, in hundreds OF cars,
were permitting total strangers to
view preparations which have always,
hitherto, been reserved for the most
Intimate and legalized relations.

ing the hasty passer-by, homely Of
fees were being enacted. The popu'
Iation of this little town was going to
bed. The porter was putting them to
sleep as if they were children in q
nursery, and he a black nanny.
The frail walls of little sanctums
were bullying with the bodies OF peo
pie disrobing in the aisle, with moth
ing between them and the beholder's
eye but a clinging curtain that ex
,plained what it did not reveal. From
Iapertures here and there disembodiec
feet were protruding and mysterious
hands were removing shoes and Other
things.
: Women in risky attire were scoot
ing to one end of the car, and men In
shirt sleeves, or less, were Fastening
to the other.
When Mallory returned to the
"Snowdrop," his ear was greeted by
the thud of dropping shoes. He found
Marjorie being rapidly tmmured, like
Poe's prisoner, in a Jail OF closing
walls.
She was unspeakably i'll at ease
and by the irony OF custom, the one
person on whom she depended for pro-
lection was the one person whose
contiguity was most alarming-and
all for lack of brief trialogue, with
a clergyman, as the tertium quid.
, When Mallory's careworn face ap'
.peared round the edge Of the partition
now erected between her and the
abode of Dr.. and Mrs. Temple, Mar
jorie shivered anew, and asked with
all anxiety:
Did you find a minister"
Perhaps the Recording Angel over
looked Mallory's answer: Not a
damn minister"
When he dropped at Marjorie's side
she edged away from him, pleading:
ION, what shall We do?"
He answered dismally and inet

tending to be-just friends"
But everybody thinks were mar
ried."
That's sol" he admitted, with the
imbecility of fatigued hope. They sat

them at any moment. Something must
be done, but what? what?

CHAPTER XVI.
Good NIGHT, All!

The car was settling gradually into
peace But there was still some muir
muir and drowsy energy. Shoes con-
tinued to drop, heads to bump against
upper berths, the bell to ring now
and then, and ring again and again.
The porter paid little heed to it;
he was busy making up number five
Qra Lathrop's BERTH for Marjorie,
who was making what preparations
she could for her trousseauless, hus-
bandless, dogless first night out.
Finally the Englishman, who had al
most rung the bell dry Of electricity,
showed from his berth his indignant
and undignified head. Once more the
car resounded with the cry Of Paw
tab! Pawtah!"
The porter moved up with notice
able deliberation. Did you ring,
sah?'
Did I ring! Paw-tah, you may
draw my tub at eight-thutty in the
mawning."
DRAW yo'-what, sah?" the porter
gasped.
"My tub"
"Ba-ath tub?"
"Bahth tub"
"Lawdy, man. Is you allowNa' to

"Of course / am"
Didn't you have one befo' you

GRAIN GROWERS
Annual Meeting to Be Held at
Mitchell Next Month

Mitchell, Dec. 23.-The dates for
the annual show of the South Dakota
Corn and Grain Groves association
have been fixed for January 70 to 10,
and the show will be held in this
city next month. coming a little
earlier than last year. Secretary
Hume states that the premium list
will be issued within a week, and
that it will disclose some fine premi-
ums. both special and regular, which
will induce a large competition from
the various sections of the state. Several
noted lecturers have been secured to
speak throughout the week for the corn
show, and all subjects of the farm will
be discussed from a practical and scien-
ti6c standpoint. The splendid crop OF
corn which was grown in South Dakota
this year will be well displayed in the
exhibits from the three sections of the
state. A boys corn contest will be
held in connection with the state show.

of President Taft to act on a request
for the pardon of Charles i. Hyde OF

TRADE REVIEW
General Situation Better Bank
Clearings Show Increased
Business

New York, Dec. 23.-Following is
the weekly review of business by Brad
streets commercial agency:
Trade in the larger lines presents
the usual preholiday characteristics.
which implies that salesmen are com
ing off the road and that inventory
is the rule. A conspicuous feature
connected with holiday trade is that
iobbers continue to report good sales
for that account. On the other
hand, distributive trade in s~easonable
wearing apparel. except at north vest
ern c%enters, has been retarded by open
weather, the lines principally affected
being clothing, shoes and rubbers
P~urveyors of wool products say hest
tany is a feature in some quarters and
that buyers are not disposed to operate
unless they are protected against price
changes that may result from the
tariff revision.
Business failures for the week in
the United States ending December 10
were 322, against 2s1 last week.
The weeks statement of bank clear
ings at the principal cities in the
United States again makes a favorable
comparison with the two preceding
years. the total a~ggreeating So, 243,
1871 ,291, a gain as compared with the
same week last year of 1919 per cent
and of 9.16 pei cent as compared
with the cor responding week in 1910.
The bank exhibit by New York
city, which reports gains of 1875 per
cent and 1871 per cent, respectively
over the two previous years, indicates
that current business in ordinary com
mercial lines is very active, as opera.
TORS on the stock exchange and in
| other speculative markets this week
show comparatively a moderate expan
sion compared with the same week iu
1911 or 1910. with the total of the
thirteen cities outside the leading
center showing a gain of s per cent
over last year and l47 per cent over
1910. Boston reports "A moderate con
traction compared with last year and

THE "SENAI0RSHIP
Gamble an Avowed Candidate
Against Sterling Lay.
ing Pipes

Redfield, Dec. o.. -The roll call O,
the United States Senate since De
cember 2 indicates that Senator Gam.
BILE has not been in attendance. Every
other representative from this state
has been present regularly except Mr..
Gamble. He has not been there al
all. On the Saturday before congress
convened, MIR. Gamble was attending
a political conference at Aberdeen.
Since that time he has been scouting
over the state and seeking to get Others
to scout for him in an attempt to defeat
Dean Sterling for the United States
Senate. 1t will be remembered that
Mr.. Gamble was a candidate against
Dean Sterling at the June primaries.
1t will also be remembered that he
caused a statement to be published be
fore the primaries stating that he
would abide by the result of the pri.
maries. 1t was supposed Of course
that he would abide by this state
ment to the people, put the corporate
interests had to have some candidate
against Dean Stei ling. Their commit
tee sought long and diligently to find a
candidte other than Mr.. Gamble. No
one was willing TO be the Lorimer of
South Dakota. No candidate could
b. found. Appeal was mad. to Mr..
Gamble and it now appears that he has
consented to act not that he has any
hope of election, but as a part of the
scheme TO divide the vote and thus pre.
vent the election of Thomas Sterling.
Mr.. Gamble has nothing personally
against Dean Sterling. The primary
contest was conducted without per
sonalities. But the corporate inter
ests need a candidate, and Mr.. Gamble
is the only man they have found thus
far who will sacrifice himself. 1t will
be remembered that he supported Lori
mer diligently until Lorimer was nm
seated, hence it is appropriate that he
be the Lorimer candidate In South Da-
kota. He sees nothing wrong in being
such candidate, even though there is
not the ghost Of a chance for his
election. Ii he can hold a dozen or
10 votes away from Sterling, and If
other candidates can later be found
who will each hold few more votes
away from Mr.. Sterling. then a dead
lock may ensue and the plan of the cor
porate interests will have borne fruit.
This plan was successful in Illinois and
1t is being played here in South Dako-
tn. The talk about Sterling not being
a republican is the decoy. The agents
the interests who are advancing this
story know it to be false, but that is
immaterial if 1t can be used to bag
Legislators. If a Legislature can be
bagged on this misrepresentation, it
will not be necessary to offer any
other Inducements. but as money has
been freely used in Illinois and else
where, to accomplish the purpose so
money will be used in South Dakota |
II any member Of the Legislature can
found who might look with favor
npon this form of argument. A sena-
or from South Dakota is just as yalu.'

TRAVELLING MEN
Proposition to Permit Them to
Vote Anywhere


statutes of neighboring states made by
the Legislative reference department in
regard to the possibility and permits
sion of travelling men to vote on gener-
al elections wherever they happen to
be in the state on election day reveals
the fact that Minnesota seems to be
the Only state having a direct law on
the subject, Our constitutional pro-
vision is very similar to that of the
Minnesota constitution when it says
that the elector ''shall be entitled to
vote aS any election in the election
district of which he shall at the time
have been for thirty days a resident"
and it would seem as though such a
provision as is being agitated would
be in violation of that clause. Min
nesota just enacted her law on the
question in 1911 and it probably has
not been adjudicated as yet, and if it
came to ad %judication might be ciassed
unconstitutional.
