Frances sailed on the first of June.
Don went to the boat to see her off, and
the band on the deck played tunes that
brought Jumps to his throat Then the
hoarse whistle doomed huskily, and from
the Hoboken sheds he watched her until
she faded into nothing but speek of
waving white handkerchief. In twenty
minutes he was back again in the office
of Carter, Rand & Seagraves- back again
to sheets of little figures with dollar signs
before them. These he read off to Speyer,
who in turn pressed the proper keys on
the adding machine-an endless, tedious,
irritating task. The figures ran to hum
dreds, to thousands, to tens of thousands.
Nothing could have been more unin-
teresting, nothing more meaningless. He
could not even visualize the sums as
money. 1t was like adding so many
columns of the letter IS" And yet, it
was the accident of an unfair distribution
of these same dollar signs that accounted
for the fact that Frances was now sailing
out of New York harbor, while he re-
manned here before this desk.

Something seemed wrong about that.
Had she been steam yacht he could have

desired steam yacht he would have ac-
cepted cheerfully the fact that he did not
have the wherewithal to purchase it. He
would have felt no sense of injustice. But
it scarcely seemed decent to consider
Frances from this point Of view, though a

"OEESTR|CK sKULE"
HERE WEDNESDAY

The 'skollars" in the 'Deestrick
Skule," which will be given at the
Opera House next Wednesday night,
Nov. 18th, in ordinary life are dignified
ladies and gentlemen, prominent in the
professions, in business, and in the
social lift of the city. But from the
way they are entering into the spirit OF
the 'skule' it proves that men and
women are only grown up boys and
girls after all.
/ And nothing is more worthy of the
time they are so ungrudgingly giving
than the work of the Music Study
Club. This club is not only adding to
the fame of Americas, but it is build
ing up the musical feature of the city.
Among the musical numbers at the
"Deestrick Skule" next Wednesday
night there will be singing by the High
school sextette. This sextette will sing
against the "Deestrick Skule" sextette.
DR.. Frank E. Cato, Macon N. Dudley,
john Mathis, Walter Page, Zach Chit
ders and the other "Deestrick Skule"
boys will give the High school boys a
close race. Everybody is going to
"Skule" to hear them Wednesday
night.
Other characters in the playlet are:
Skule Master, Lee M. Hansford Mrs.
Honeysuckle, Mrs. Jas. w. Harris, II
Committeeman: Prof. ]. e. Mathis.
Frank Harold, Chas. R. Crisp, Judge
R. L. Maynard, DR.. Lansing Burrows,

TO POSTPONE IMMIGRATION
LAW IN ARGENTINA

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina, Nov
Sl.-On the representation of the
British, Italian, Dutch and Spanish
ministers to the Argentine, the decree
restricting immigration to this coun-
tly which was to take effect this
month, has been postponed for four
months, which means until the new
administration has had time to CON
slider, and possibly rescind it. The
decree, which was recently reported
in these dispatches was of a very
drastic nature, aimed particularly
against a possible influx of undesir-
ables after the war.

HOW FRENCH PEOPLE CURE
STOMACH TROUBLE

A household remedy of the French
peasantry, consisting of pure vege-
table oil, and said TO possess wonder
full merit in the treatment of stomach,
liver and intestinal troubles has been
introduced in this country by George
H. Mayr, who for twenty years has
been one of the leading down town
druggists of Chicago and who himself
was cured by its use. So quick and
effective is its action that single
dose is usually enough to bring pro-
nounced relief in the most stubborn
cases, and many people who have tried
it declare they never heard of any
thing to produce such remarkable re
suits in so short time. 1t is known
as Mayr's Wonderful Remedy and can
now be had at all leading drug stores.
1t is sold with the positive under
standing that your money will be re-
funded without question or bubble if
ONE bottle fails to give you absolute
satisfaction. adv.-4
For sale by Chas. G. Rhodes and
all other reliable druggists.
