Something IN Clara Spotswood's face told
him that she would like to point out the
way to him, and so he pretended to mis-
understand the directions Clara at once
volunteered, saying that she was going
that way anyway. SO Wallace and
Clara set out, the young advertising man
with manner more jaunty than he had
worn in months.

Her yellow hair, escaping from either

background of harmony. Upon her face
Jackson thought for a moment that there
was a bitterness a contempt for the
man she was beholding for the first time.
He could not be sure. and when he looked
again there was absolutely nothing in the
face except a grave interest. Beneath
the calm, piercing Of those blue gray
eyes Broadway lowered his own. There
was a sound of drumming in his ears.
The voice OF the fudge seemed to come
from great distance, as, forcing him
self into the attention of Broadway, Il
broke the strange influence over Jackson.
This is the little lady I've been tell

Richards. And this gentleman is Mr.

Through force of a wifi that sometimes
seemed to be slumbering within him.
Jackson resumed his normal manner, il

HOBSON SEEKS TO
FLOOD The LAND
With His Great Speech on
Prohibition

Washington, d. c., Feb. 20-The
democratic economists of the house
We're startled when they discovered
| that Representative Richmond Pearson
Hobson, of Alabama, had made appli-
cation for and was being supplied with
a million and a half envelopes free OF
cost to himself, in which to send cop
les of a speech he made recently ad-
vocating an amendment to the consti
tuition, prohibiting the manufacture
and sale of intoxicating liquors in the
United States.
The million and a half envelopes
will cost about 1920, it is estimated
which will have to be paid out of the
contingent fund of the house, if Hob
sons order is filled. Steps were TAX
en- by the controllers of the house
purse strings to shut down on filling
the order.
1t is customary for each house of
congress to supply it's members with a
reasonable number of free envelopes
for the circulation of copies of their
speeches, the printing of the speeches
being done at the members expense.
But never befor has a mmber of
either house, it is said, tried to put
over an order for a million and a half
envelopes, or any approximately large
number.

GINNERIES Still HAVE
MUCH GINNING TO Do
Figures For Crop Here Con-
tinue to Grow

A visit to any of the public ginner-
les of Sumter county reveals the fact
that the cotton crop here has not yet
been marketed by a good deal. At one
of these big plants yesterday, seven
teen farm wagons, loaded with cot
ton to be ginned, awaited their turn.
What remains in the field of last
seasons bumper crop is, of course, al
most worthless, so much so that some
of the public ginneries will not handle
it, but a considerable amount of cotton
finds its way to the gins nevertheless,
and promises to add 1000 or 5000
bales, at least, to the total of As 500
already received at the Americas ware
houses.

Hope of releasing them until the

Some fear was expressed for the
