claim to the title of state meat in

newer country the possibilities of a
dinner party. Perhaps it is their high.

taken in governmental questions,
which gives the dinner table an i'm

life. A brilliant hostess. with heart
and soul wrapped up in her husbands
advancement, can do much to aid him
as he tolls rp the ladder of political
preferment by gathering at her board
the leaders of her husbands party and
also prominent men Of the opposi-
ton. One need have only a super
fetal knowledge of American politics
and American leaders to understand
why this is not generally possible
here. But there be some here, taking
a leaf from England's book; who make
the dinner party serve purposes not
apparent to all the guests. Judge
Amos Gilbert was one of these.
Fond, ambitious mothers held up to
their sons as an example the rise of
Amos Gilbert from an humble home
in frontier village to position as
the leading corporation lawyer OF Bel
mont. He represented the electric
light company. the street railway
company, the water company and the
stock-yards company. A person with

could be favored by some political
turn or damaged by some political
machination. They found 1t better to
employ Judge Gilbert than to trust to
luck that all would go we'll.
All day Judge Gilbert had been try
ing to get in touch with David Kerr
by telephone. Kendall. who repre-
sented the Chicago packers. had been
called back to that city and was anx-
ious to see Kerr before he left that
night. Failing in this. Gilbert could
make no definite promise as to Mr..
Kerr's attitude on certain PROPOSE
tions set forth by the astute Chicago
lawyer. On his own authority he did
say. however. that the master of Lo-
Gust Lawn was interested in watching
the Belmont News develop its new

The arrival of Gloria's trunks put
IN end to further conversation. as she
went to superintend their unpacking.
Long after she had gone. David Kerr
sat gazing into the fire. Many time
he had sat in that room and planned
each move of a political campaign
from its inception to final victory and
had seen those plans carried out to
the letter. But here was campaign.

be different. He would not be fighting

would See to 1t that she had a social
position which would be above cavil.
This much decided, there came the
question of how 1t could be brought

request for a box. He telephoned to
set It aside for him, that he did not
know whether or not he would use 1t,
but that he would send a check for
the amount in the morning. The
much fiustered treasurer stammered
that he would be most happy to put

have him as q guest of the theater,

permanent. The Tigers clever young
