NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
SHE WAS A PEACH
BY SETH MONROE.

Anthony? You mean Jim Anthony
who used to cover this territory for
King & Co.? Why, he has another
route now. and he amt travelling for
King & Co. any more, neither. And
Letty-you remember Lefty, who used
to be in service here. Well-say, I'd
best start right at the beginning.
Lefty was the housemaid at this
hotel when Anthony was King & Co.'s
best salesman. Her mother had
brought her up very strict, and when
she died Lefty was only eighteen and
knew about as much Of the world as a
child does. The house was worth about
two thousand, for property had been
going up for a long time; but Lefty
couldn't live on nothing while it was
on the market, so she came to the
tavern as second housemaid. In those
days service of that kind wasn't con-
sidered anyways lowering in Wake
field.
Anthony was staying over night 1t
was small town on his route, and he
hadn't made many sales that year, and
he was naturally bit depressed. But
when he saw Lefty sweeping down the
hall he frightened up bit. Anthony
always liked pretty face. So he
comes up to her.
Hello, kid. you sure are peach,
he says, and kisses her. That done,
he goes into his room. thinking no
more about it.
Lefty was flabbergasted. She had
always been taught that to kiss girl
meant you wanted to marry her, and
here was perfect stranger who had
kissed her the minute he set eyes on
her. The little fool put down her
broom and began to cry with happi-
ness. Anthony was about forty and
rather fat and flashily dressed, but he
was all gold in Letty's eyes.
Next morning Anthony. having re-
newed his crouch, went out of his
room carrying his suit case. He met
Lefty, who had been waiting on the
stairs. Morning, MISS said Anthony
and passed on, leaving Lefty still more
fiabbergasted.
Il guess she cried all that day, but
when night came she had made up her
mind. OF course fine gentleman like
Anthony wouldn't want TO marry u girl
in service. Her little head was full of
romanccs. She had read about men

RICH In HISTORIC INTEREST
Excellent Reasons Why Msslssippi'a
Old Capitol Should Be Pre- served
by People of State.

A bill for renovating Mississippis
old statehouse calls for the legislature
of the state to consider n question
moro or less continuously discussed by
MiSsissippians ever since the compile
ton of the present capitol in 1903 For
comparatively modest sum the old
capitol may be restored and put to ex-
cellent and appropriate use. So that
today the sentimental plea for the
buildings preservation is strongly re-
inforced by unitarian arguments.
Mississippi's old etatehouse should
be as dear to Mississippians who take
pride in their states history as tho
Cabldo is to Louisianians. Built In 1899
the old capitol at Jackson is identified
with the most stirring events In the
most stirring period of MissIsslppi's
history.
In 1S49 it housed the convention that
formally asserted the principle of
secession as state right. In its hall
the convention of 1861 was assembled
and the ordinance of secession passed,
During the stormy years just following
the war 1t witnessed the dspossession
Of two governors by federal troops,
and staged the notorious black and
tan" convention. 1t was the scene of
the Impeachment trial of Governor
Ames. In 1890 II sheltered the consti-
tutional convention which framed and
enacted the franchise plan that solved
the south's most portentious problem.
Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay, Prem
tiss. Lamar. Walthall George and
other makers of history have ad-
dressed Mississippi audiences in the
historic structure. 1t Witnessed the
election of jefferson Davis as major
general of Mississippi troops at the
beginning of the struggle between the
states. From its rostrum the Confed-
crate president in 1884 delivered his
farewell address to the people of Mis-
sissippi.

being true to death, and all that. and
she made up her mind to make herself
worthy of Anthony.
"She took her savings and went to
night school with them. BY the end
of the year Lefty was fair stenOg-
rapher and bookkeeper, and, as the
young woman who kept books for the
tavern was leaving to get married,
Lefty stepped into her shoes. The
salary was dollar less than her
wages had been when she held the
broom, but she was mighty glad.
at the end of the year Anthony
comes on his route again, and when
Lefty looked up from her books and
saw him standing. waiting to register,
her heart beat 80 that she couldn't
speak.
Anthony looked at her, and his
crouch began to clear away. He al
ways liked pretty girls.
You sure are a peach, kiddo,' he
said, and chucked her under the chin.
How about the movies tonight?'
with that he was gone, leaving
poor Lefty in a heaven OF ecstasy. Her
god had noticed her again; he was
going to take her out. That nashy
chap was king in Letty's eyes.
81 guess Anthony wanted to take
her out all right, though he hadn't the
slightest notion that he had ever met
her before. Bat he fell in with some
of the boys, and they got him into a
poker game. and when he got cat, at
midnight, he was $72 in the hole, And
by that time he had forgotten all about
Lefty, who had been waiting all
primDcd up since eight o'clock.
Lefty cried herself to sleep, and
next morning Anthony was gone be-
fore she was down in the office.
She gave up hope then, but she
stayed on at the tavern keeping the
books. She wouldn't have anything
to do with the young fellows of Wake
field, but she was always nice to trav.
cling men. About the time when An
thony was due again she began to ask
timid questions about him. But no
body told her much; you see, they
guessed something had happened be-
tween them. But at last Lefty got the
truth from young salesman who was
making the rounds.
Anthony he asked. Why, he
won't be here any more. I'm covering
his territory now for King & Co. You
see, they caught him with the goods,

"'Goods?' inquired Lefty, puzzled.

taken to gamble with. His case comes
up for trial pretty soon, and he'll likely

NtCKWEER OF THE MOMENT
Styles Are as Pretty as Those Of the
Summer, Though Materials
Are Different.

Just as last summer the lovely
touch of white neckwear was organdie
and lawn, so now 1t is of cream net
and lace in the finer costumes, and Of
pique in those dresses that smack OF
the tailormade.
There is less wiring of the collars
to make them stand up, as the necks
are higher as far as decollete Is con-
cerned; they can, however, be lightly
wired If they are more becoming.
Fine venise, applique and point laces
are noted in the collars of the new
dress models, and there is always
enough net added to the neck decora-
ton to keep the lace from looking too
hard against the skin.
Some of the lace euimpes are Of
embroidered net Of the applique type
OF lace. and they finish at the top
with round neck that does not come
quite up to the base Of the throat.
