SELLING THEM OUT
BY n. M. EGBERT.

When Allan Gray walked out OF the
Office of Smiths Weekly, after hav
ing applied successfully in response
to an advertisement for an assistant
he thought that his future was as
sured. Twenty-four, just out OF col
lege. with all the enthusiasm of a
young man facing the struggle OF life
he appealed to Smith, although fol
different reasons than those which
Smith outlined.
"We're here to fight corruption IN
Bender" said the middle-aged editor
and proprietor, humping his fist
down on the table. "And we're going
to clean up the rottenest town in the
whole state. That is my purpose, and
that's what we are going to do-to
gether, Mr.. Gray"
There was a girl in Allan Gray's
life. Her name was Mildred and she
was twenty-five. She was earning a
living in the metropolis two hundred
miles away. Each of them was put
ting by money toward the day-the
great day when Allan would be able
to earn an income for both of them
At the end of his first month OF
service Gray's salary was raised from
fifteen dollars to twenty-five. Smith
was rapidly, handing over to him the
charge of the Weekly. The young
mans stinging editorials in particular
aroused the editors appreciation.
"Give it 'em hot!" said Smith
"Well done, young man! see made
no mistake in taking you"
With more sophistication Allan
might have suspected that something
was wrong. Actually, he was delight
ed. He detailed the entire situation tC
his sweetheart in his twice-a-week
letters.
Its this way, DEAR" he wrote. eve

Certainly the appearance of the new
weekly created prodigious sensation
in town of 100000 inhabitants. To

Who got the contract for the roads,
and why? On the day following the
appearance of the first issue a deputa-
tion of local merchants made their
appearance and announced that Smith
need look for no advertisements from
them. Smith was not counting on ad-
vertisements. He laughed them out Of
his Office. When the circulation ran
up to 10000 he guffawed. Smiths
Weekly was success beyond all
doubt. Everyone bought it, from
Boss Gregory to the high school boys.
At the end Of three months Allan
was writing nearly all the editorials,
under Smiths guidance. The older
man confessed that the youngster
could beat him at his own game.
Then Allan wrote gleefully to Mil
dred:
"The time is coming, dear. After
the approaching elections we shall
have a new government. Then busi-
ness will flow our Way, Gregory and
his satellites will be consigned to the
outer darkness. shall be raised again,
and we will ba-mnrrieC! Think of
that! Married."
Four weeks before the elections, to
his amazement, the young fellow was
waited on by deputation of citizens
a. his clearinghouse. They wanted
him to run cor the office os sheriff,
paying $4,000 yearly.
"Bnt I don't know anything about
the work." acclaimed the boy, de-
lighted.

very little chance OF your election"
said the chief of the deputation can
