CONGRESSMAN LlNDBERGH'S

We have read Congressman Charles

for governor at the Repub-
can primaries and mailed to voters
l Minnesota and must say that his
Jews are the most genuinely demo
ATTIC of anything in the line that we
ave read of late. Here are a couple

Writing about primary elections,

MiIlicent had found no positions open, however. Nobody seemed in need of stenographer without past experience or even a typist. Some business men, she found, wanted girl in their offices, but they expressed themselves as being more personally interested in Millicent's good looks than in her Tingleville certificate. So Millie wisely looked elsewhere. Wise ly maybe, but fruitlessly. Then one evening in her bare hall room this second week she came across the two line lad" of the National Film Manu- featuring company, which, it seemed, was lukewarmly interested in secur- ing a girl flor fling" A princely stipend of six dollars per week was the practical inducement offered.
 Six dollars loomed gigantic to our Millicent just then and, although the thought of being only an office girl was humiliating, it was considerably better than nothing. She determined to be first of the hundred-odd appli- cants at the studio on the morrow, and so, indeed, she was.

Millie occupied herself with a perusal ot the newspaper and therein read a long account of the stupendous pro- duction which the National Film Man. ufacturing company was about to re- lease. The names of fascinating Au.
 frey Arlington. darling of the movie fans, and of Ned Holman. her hand some male support occurred ire Quently. The release was to be iii no less than five reels. three of which the press notice stated were already done and desperate efforts were be- ing made to finish taking the other two for a theater presentation by Christ mas eve. "A mammoth, elaborate pro- duction no expense spared .' etc, etc., ad lib.
 Not knowing much about the movies, Millicent wasn't much inn pressed, however. At the moment her mind was fervently occupied with melancholy "reminiscences of Med" Harkins, who had pledged eternal fide1- ity to her in the shadow of hay stack one moonlight night years be- fore when both he and she were bare ly more than children. Ned-her Ned-had gone away to the big city three years before to make his for tune. She never had heard from him since.
 Unclouded eyes, fresh clean con- pleXion and simple direct address won Millicent her interview with the of flee manager in the film plant While he still was explaining her new filing duties, in rushed the chief director hair rumpled and gesticulating in wild excitement.
 Audrey Arlington fell down in the middle of her big scene in the last reel of the Christmas release. Complete nervous breakdown! hysterical are rushing her dl- rect to the nearest hospital now. What in heavens name will we do? There isn't a girl in the whole stock company who can make up to look enough like her to complete the personification for this final reel!"
 The head director kept wringing his hands and swearing frantically. The president of the company registered acute distress. Then his eyes acci- dentally fell upon pretty Millicent among her filing cases.
 Look! Look; MT. 1saacsohn!" yelled the head director, pointing. "As I live, that girl looks enough like Miss Arlington to be mistaken for her on the street! -.e9.s Come here, Miss Miss whatever.your-name is! Have

Act natural; that's what we're paying you for! Walk in- side of those tape limos on the floor and don't on any account move out side them. This scene is the parlor of your home. It's supposed to bc Christmas eve. You're to turn your back to the camera and be tieing a sprig of mistletoc to the chandelier. MT. Ned Holman, who plays opposite lead will do the rest. You simply act as any girl would under the cir cumstances. Hey you, Get MT. Holman from his dTessingroom. Tell him we're all ready again. Now, in you go miss!"
 Milliccnt did just as she was told although her heart beat fast and her head was in a whirl. With her back to the assemblagc behind the crank ing comora man, she raised both arms to tie the sprig of mistletoe to the chandelier. Quick footsteps sounded behind her and an instant later, a mans strong arms were around her waist and his handsome face thrust close to hers for a kiss.
 With cry of mingled fright and in- dignation, the girl sauirmed about in his arms and tried to push him away. Then for the first time she caught sight of the movie matinee idols face.
 "Ned?" she thrilled in joyous amazement Ned Harkins! You arc the famous Ned Tolman?'
 "Millicent!' breathed he clasping her closer as their lips met in a long, long kiss and the watching director yelled: "Fine. fine! Hold that!"
 Presently the whirr of the camera crank ceased and the grins on the faces of actor, extra" and set shifter broadened.
 Hey there." finally shouted the head director. Films run out; scenes over! We've had enough of that kiss now!"
 But l haven't" murmured Ned looking fondly down into his old sweetheart's happiness-flushed face Have you, Millicent?'

 Bewildered Millicent was pulled out of the busy offices and back to the huge glass-domed studio where the last reel of the famous Christmas release was being held in impatient abeyance for it's principal.

 Z Millicent had come to the metropolis abrim with the high hopes and dimi- nent enthusiasm of youth. Incidental ly she brought remarkable good looks with her too, although, being unso- phisticated and from the country, she was not as self-conscious of them as most city girls of her age are. The home farm was hopelessly mortgaged and for several years past she had realized with increasing poignancy what a tax upon her aged parents slender resources she was.
 As a girl grows older she craves more and better things, and, no mat ter how slightly she may be in- dulged in the matter, her support IS unayoidably more expensive from year to year. It was acute realization of this that had prompted Millicent to adventure citywards, armed with her diploma from the Tingleville Conner 7 cial college, proving her to be fully trained stenoMapher. --
