congress from this county, addressed
the voters of this county who were
here attending court at the recess

that will arise both to the nation
and the individual sections from d
system OF first class highways.

proVement Of the rural free delivery
service, and advocated the extension
of existing routes in preference to
the creation and establishment Of
new ones.
He strongly favored a merchant
marine sufficient to handle the ship

quoted Mr. Fuller E. Galloway. of
LaGrange, who recently told the
ways and means committee of con-

accurate information on questions of
national legislation, past, pending
and prospective. Summerville News.

 Well, wherever it is take me there -quick!' snapped Langdon. "If you want authority for it go downstairs and tell Barney that MT. Philip Lang don wants you to take him there." At the name the boy gave a quick, choked cry, and with a untitled 1T thought it wasn't any funny joke," led the way rapidly back down the cor ridOr.
 Almost simultaneously the door of the banquet room opened and Daniels face, strained and uneasy, peered into the hall Seeing Langdon, he hur- ried towards him and was but a few feet away when the boy paused abruptly and pointed to the door of Pollock's suite.
 She's in there,' he muttered, and scutt1ed off. But not far, for even as Langdon's hand was on the knob there came a woman's scream and the loud report of a revolver echoing higA above the clamorous gaiety of voices and orchestra. There was an instant's terrified silence, and then the waves of humanity came surging down the corridor headed by the hotel authori- ties. But Langdon and Daniels were already across the threshold of the room where lay the dead body of David Pollock and beside it the un- conscious form of Mary Page with a revolver lying not five inches from her limp fngertips.
 A thin dribble of blood was run ming across the carpet towards her, and Langdon snatched her up out of it's way with sudden horror, and his great fear. voice in a desperate cry:
 Mary! Mary did you do this ?'
 It was not Mary who answered, but the hotel detective, who said sternly:
 ''Not did she do this, but WHY did she do this, MT. Langdon," he cor rected.

"SEVEN KEYS TO

The more sincerely one enjoys the thrills of genuine iead-in-earnest melodrama, the more surely and keenly will one realize the frankly fearless and hilarious fun of Geo M Cohan's delightful farce. Seven Keys to Baldpate," which will be the attraction here by the Alfred Cross Players January 31 at the Lyceum theater following the present big suc- cess, '"The Christian.
 In this, the latest output from the pen or Wizard Conan, he fools his audlence to the top of his bent At the opening or the play the audience learns that William Hallowell Magee
 a novelist of the lurid type. has made a wager of $5,000 that he can write a ten thousand word story in twentv- four hours, the only stipulation be- ing that the work be done in "tho 1onesomest spot on earth.''
 seven Keys to Ba1dpate' is a most unusual play. It will lift you right out of your seat it is that full of thrills and surprises Tn it MT. Conan runs the gamut of human emO- tons, beglnnlng With the weird man ner of introducing his characters who

 The story is intensely interesting and proves again the astonishing versatility and supreme self conf tdence of MT. Conan, whose genius in the art of play building is acknowl- edged the world over, and never more convincingly than in this laughing, thrilling, melodramatic farce.

Ouerulousness

NIT THAT a wonderful word and a most disagreeable quality? Some words sound like the things or the characteristics they represent. And surely none ever belonged in that class more surely than querulousness. That's what I mean by it's being a wonderful word
 As to it's being an exceptionally dis agreeable quality-well I don't be- lieve anyone who has ever suffered from it would want to argue with me on that point.
 | Know There Was Something the Matter.
 This morning as I sat in the trolley car reading I had vague sense of something unpleasant without reallz- ing just what it was. This conscious ness finally grew upon me so that I came back into the world from a very absorbing story to find out. And be- hold, it was simply that somewhere m the car a child was talking in quer- ulOus voice.
 child's voice ought to be a beau- tiful thing, full of sweet, high notes and sunshine and hope. It is a posi- tive sin to permit querulousness to creep into it. Not for the child, of course. He isn't old enough to real ize of himself what he is doing. But for the older people about him who permit it. In one house of which 1 know, a request is never granted when put in a querulous tone. Say
