WHERE HER THOUGHTS WERE

Though Not Quite Following Hus-
bands Reading.

The husband was reading a newspa-
per account to his wife. Now and
then he paused and asked question.
The nature Of her replies made him
doubt that she was listening closely.
He accused her Of having thoughts
elsewhere. and she Indignantly retort-
cd that she had heard every word.
He continued reading for few min
utes and then glanced at her. From
the faraway look In her eyes he knew
her thoughts we're not upon the item
he was reading. So. turning the sheet
as an excuse for the pause. he con-
tinued as follows:

If Spicer would surrender, the officer

Old Spicer South, restored to an

call of action, gave the clans verdict.
"Hit hain't the cote we're skeered

The officer had meant what he said.
He marched his prisoner into Hixon
at the center of hollow square. with
muskets at the ready. And yet, as the
boy passed into the courthouse yard,
with soldier rubbing elbows on each
side, a cleanly aimed shot sounded
from somewhere. The smokeless pow

That afternoon one of Hollman's

Flashlight pictures of gregarious

a fair-haired clerk waiting on her. they
found the building empty.
Back beyond, the hills were impene-
trable, and answered no questions.
Old Spicer South would ten years
ago have put bandage on his wound
and gone about his business, but now
he tossed under his patchwork quilt,
and Brother Spencer expressed grave
doubts for his recovery. With his
counsel unavailable Vile McCager. by
common consent, assumed something
like the powers of regent and took
upon himself the duties to which Sam
son should have succeeded.
That a Holman should have been
able to elude the pickets and penetrate
the heart of South territory to Spicer
South's cabin was both astounding and
alarming. The war was on without
question now, and there must be coun.
ell. Vile McCager had sent out sum.

with ancient custom the lanes would

Those men who came by the wagon
road afforded no unusual spectacle,
for behind each saddle sagged sack
of grain. Their faces bore no stamp
Of unwonted excitement, but every
man balanced a rife across his pom
mel. None the less, their purpose was
grim, and their talk when they had
gathered was to the point.
Old McCager, himself sorely per
picked, voiced the sentiment that the
others had been too courteous to ex'
press. With Spicer South bedridden
and Samson renegade. they had NO
adequate leader. McCager was a solid
man of intrepid courage and honesty
but grinding grist was his vocation,
not strategy and tactics. The enemy
had such masters of intrigue as Puryy
and Judge Holman.

side He was clad in overalls. and In
the pockets of his breaches reposed
bullying flask of red liquor, and an

Almost four years had passed since
Samson had left the mountains, and
in four years a woman can change her

the road, greet him once more as kins.
man and agree to forget his faulty
method of courtship. This time he
would be more diplomatic. Yesterday
he had gone to the boss and called

and free lance.

In the tariff and revenue

revenue; the new policy of

logical answer. There ia no
necessity for stamp tax with
an adequate protective tariff.

HARD SESSION IN CONGRESS
PREDICTED.

Congress is up against a
hard session for number of
very importantthings confront
the nation. Amongst these
we can name the question of
preparedness for war, the
mercantile marine, and the
ever. present tariff a nd revenue
troubles.
There will be hard fighting
between the parties on these,
yet the reasonable people OF
the nation Cannot see the ne
cessity OF any controversy over
these.
Upon the question OF pre-
paredness there should be no
reasonable doubt. Our coun-
try must be made ready to
meet any invasion, and strong
enough to repel any encroach-
ments from any possible quar-
ter. On the question of mer-
camille marine. there can be
no doubt but that our country
must have a subsidized mer-
chant marine if we are to en-
large our trade boundaries.
