That was the real reason he never let

1T must be an immense fortune,
Judge, isn't it," asked Wallace.
The Consolidated people offered
him twelve hundred thousand dollars
for the plant and trademark"
Yes; We know that" said Jackson
"Mr. Wallace means aside from the
gum business
Well" said the Judge refectively,
you see those trust fellows have been
so anxious to get the Jones Gum that
they've been making business pretty
warm OF late. They knew, for instance,
that We had fund for advertising.

Dave came with the cigars.
Their mere arrival made both Wis
itors nervous. and when the Judge pre-
sented them to Broadway he was glad
to find 1t reasonable to disclaim cigar
smoking entirely and light a cigarette.
Wallace had no such excuse He had
been smoking steadily since his ar
rival until within ten minutes He
never felt like thinking save when he
was smoking and there would be much
hard thinking to be done this evening
But to smoke one Jonesville perfecto

She dropped her voice to a loud
