kusTIN'S ideal

When Tim saw her, sweeping grace
fully through the Offices, her golden
hair falling lightly over her sturdy
Young shoulders, he forgot all about
the little stenographer. The girl was
Madge Jenkins, daughter of Mr.. Dud-
ley jenkins, senior partner Of jenkins
& Barr.
The girl had gone straight to her IA
theirs office and few minutes later
was seen going out again at her IA
Tiers side apparently to have lunch
with him at his downtown club.
Somehow the air was fresher and
the day was brighter to Tim Austin
because of that visit of Madge Jenkins.
She was just in her teens at the time
and Tim, at sixteen, was beginning
his career.
Once-it was two years later and
by this time Tim had come to regard
the girl as his presiding divinity
Madge had brought her dog to the
office with her.
Would you be so good-could you
just hold him in leash till l come out?
Then, after he had returned the dog
to it's pretty owner, after he had been
introduced to her by Mr.. Jenkins HIM
self, he realized for the first time the
breach that lay between them. What
must be her contempt for him? The
fact that he was no longer Office boy,
that he had obtained rapid promotion
and had even been taken out to lunch
at the club by the boss" seemed to
make no difference. Then came the
day when Mr.. Jenkins asked him to
have dinner with him at his home.
AS they were taking the elevator it
was akin to a blow to have Mr.. Jen-
kins say: My daughter will be dis
appointed not to be at home. But it
is the night Of some sort of school
festivity."
Then came a time when Jenkins and
Barr parted company, and for bust
ness reasons Tim was retained by Barr
instead of jenkins. All that happened
before Tim was two and twenty.
Now, with anyone but Tim it might
have been simply passing memory
that little experience with the gold
en-haired Madge. But to Tim it was
much more than that. 1t was even
enough to account fox the fact that he
never took more than a very passing
interest in the girls he met. At TWEEN
ty-six or seven, when the sign over his
office door read Barr & Austin he
had earned for himself the reputation
of being immune SO far as pretty girls
were concerned.

as this Mr.. BARR" She, the one
who asked this question, was quiet
ly dressed little person who had been
ushered into Tim Austin's presence by
his office boy as young lady looking
for a job" Austin was somewhat an
noyed by the intrusion, but as matter
OF fact, he needed a new typist and
made a rule always to interview per-
sonally those whose names went down
on his pay roll. This time, however,
Tim scarcely looked up at the young
woman. Something in her general APP
pearance and in the tone Of her voice
treasured him that she would be a
satisfactory employee"
For a week or so Tim saw little Of
the new typist. Once or twice he
heard Barr say chat she was pretty,
but the idea of pTettiness In any en-
ployee interested Tim not at all. If
any interest did come to him with re-
gard to the new typist it was because
she apparently wanted to avoid him,
because she found an excuse always
to leave any room he happened to
enter.
1t was in March when the big snow
storm of the winter occurred that
year, and Tim Austin was not espe-
cially surprised that out of the four or
five members of the entire establish
ment who ventured out that day and
arrived at work on time, the new
typist was one. Needless to say, Tim
was also on time. His own stem
ographer had not arrived and it oc-
cured to him that the new typist
might be able to take his dictation.,
Hurriedly he made his way into the
large. light room where she did her
work. When he opened the door she
gave a little cry of alarm. She was
standing before the radiator somewhat
the worst for her encounter with the
storm. She had spread out her coat
to dry and was holding her hands to
the heat. But what Tim noticed and
what had caused the cry of alarm was
that the new typist's hair was hang
ing, disheyeled and moistened by the
snow, over her shoulders.
Tim stopped with sudden surprise.
For the first time he looked searching,
ly at the girl. Yes, it really was. 1t
was the same hair those were the
same eyes, and that was the same
voice. 1t was actually Madge jenkins.
Il have always been faithful to the
memory of the only girl that ever
charmed me- he said as soon as he
could trust himself to speak. Il sup
pose II is always that way when man
really loves, even ii he is only a cal
low Office boy at the time"
but why did you never let me
know" she asked, with the same
voice that had charmed him SO many
years before.
80 long as you had money and posi-
ton | never could have told you
loved you Tim said, but now it isn't
so very difficult, It seems strange
that ! should be glad of your apparent
misfortune. Perhaps ! can . some
thing for your father IL he has failed
It is a long time since have heard
OF him.
Madge looked UP at him with glow
ing checks and sparkling eyes. They
kissed.

TOWNSEND AND MADDOX
MAKE BIG COTTON SALE.

The members of the planting
firm of Townsend and Maddox,
of Baltzer, Miss, who have been
operating ON the 5. l.. Dodds plan
tation for the past several years,
are highly elated over the sales
of 200 bales Of high grade cotton
this week through the Shipwith
Cotton Co, and the Delta Gro
Gerry & Cotton Co., both of this
city, their product bringing 20
and 81 cents.
These gentlemen are originally
from Hickman, KY, and have had
fair success since coming to the
Delta but this year has been a
record breaker, and they have
each made a good size fortune
from the 1916 crop and now there
can be found no more staunch be-
levers in or boosters for the great
Mississippi Delta.
Then too, this is the kind of
men that Mississippi is seeking,
men who will not become dis
couraged because conditions seen
to go against them the first year
or two, but who will stick, and
Thereby become handsomely en-
dowed with worldly possessions
And we may say right here, thai
we have our first case to hear Of
where the man failed to max.
good who came here to make hi,
permanent home. = Clarksdal

Comes Back to His Three
Squares a Day at Local

NOTHING TO EAT ONE

Hawaiian Dancers Ward
robe Scant Meal for Hun
cry Son of Desert

Abdul the Wanderer, has returned
to Bridgeport. He arrived at the
circus winter quarters last night,
thereby rejoicing himself, several per-
sons in New York city and more than
all, little Mary Pickford, to whom the
camel has been a white elephant fig
uratively speaking.
1t should be known that Abdul, a
doclle dromedary of the camel genus,
is the same that stands forth in pic
tor1al relief on the packages. of a GER
tain we'll known cigarette.
He was originally from the desert
sands but later became the possession
of the Ringing Brothers. He has
many times been loaned to actors in
experienced in dromedary ways and
has never injured anyone. His last
experience probably was the hardest
for in the production of LESS Than
the Dust" he became a part of the
picture and was so beloved by Miss
Pickford that he was presented to her
by John Ringing.
Fed by actors it was milk and honey
one day and a seven days wait for the
next meal. Furthermore as Miss
Pickford began to travel it was found
that the various animal commissioners
and the railroad officials did not look
with kindly eyes upon the son of
the desert. The result was that Abdul
was farmed out to New York moving
picture owners as street display for
LESS Than the Dust" Many days
shivering were spent in this manner
until last week when the climax was
reached.
At a Bronx theatre where motion
pictures and vaudeville was shown,
Abdul was an equal attraction with
six hula-hula dancers. Things went
along smoothly until he was stabbed
near a costume rack on the stage on
which the grass fibre abbreviated
skirts were hung. Abdul with a keen
sense of smell only to aid him, mis-
took the trappings for feast where
by at the afternoon performance of
the dancers, the nature of their scant
attire caused official action by the
censor of shows and the fate Of Abdul
was decreed. He is now in the
warm winteruuarters among friends,
and will regret the advent of another
moving picture engagement.
