he has the power to make life easy
and comfortable for Sheba," she de-
Tended sturdily.
"Yet you turned down Arthur West,
the best catch in your set. to marry
Peter, who was the worst" he re-
lnInded her. "Have you ever been
sorry for it?' ,
She recurred to the previous ques-
ton. "Sheba knows more about Mr..
Macdonald than you think. And about
how he got her fathers claim, for In
stnnce-she has heard all that"
"You told herr"
"No. Colby Macdonald told her. BE
said he practically robbed her father,
and he gave her a check for nearly two
hundred thousand to- cover the clean
up from the claim and interest"
'Bully for him." On the heel Of
this he flung a question at her. "Did
Macdonald ask her to marry him the
night of the dinner?"
A flash of whimsical amusement lit
her dainty face. you'd better ask
him that. Here he comes now"
They were coming down the walk
together. Macdonald and Sheba. The
young woman was absorbed In his talk.
and she did not know that her cousin
and Elliot were on the porch until
she was close upon them. But at sight
of the young man her eyes became
warm and kind.
'Tm sorry I was out yesterday when
you called" she told him.
"And you were out again today. My
luck isn't very good, Is it?'
He laughed pleasantly, but his heart
was bitter. He believed Macdonald
had won.
"We've had such a good walk" She
ba went on quickly. Il wish you could
have heard Mr.. macdonald telling me
how he had n chance to save small
Eskimo tribe during a hard winter. He
carried food five hundred miles to
them. 1t was thrilling experience"
"Mr. Macdonald has had lot of
very interesting experiences. You must
get him to tell you about all of them."
answered Gordon quietly.
The eyes Of the two men met. The
steel-gray ones OF the older man an
swered the challenge of his rival with
long. steady look. There was in II
something Of triumph. something Of
scornful insolence. II this young fel-
low wanted war, he did not need to
wait long for 1t.
"Time enough for that, man. Miss
O'Neill and l have the whole Arctic
winter before us for stories."
The muscles in the lean jaws of Cor.
don Elliot stood out like steel ropes.
He turned to Sheba. "Am l to con-

The color in her cheeks grew warm.

II think it is l that am to be congrat.
ulated. Mr.. Elliot"
Diane took her cousin In her arms.
''My dear, I wish you all the happi-
ness in the world" she said softly.
The Irish girl fled into the house
rs soon as she could. but not before
making an announcement.
"We're to be married soon, very qui-
etly. If you are still at Kusiak we
want you to be one Of the few friends
present, Mr.. Elliot"
Macdonald backed her invitation
with cool. cynical smile. Miss
O'Neill speaks for US both, of course,
Elliot"
The defeated man bowed. "Thanks
very much. The chances are that I'll
be through my business before then"

den with the excuse that he had blue
prints to work over. Presently Diane
said she thought she heard one of the
children crying and left to investigate.
The Scotsman strobe to the fireplace
and stood looking down into the glow
ing Goals. He seemed In no hurry to
break the silence and Sheba glanced
mt hi strong brooding face a little ap-
prehenslvely. She knew Of only one
subject that would call for SO formal
n private talk between her and Mac
donald, and any discussion of this she
would very much have liked to post

He turned from the fire to Sheba. 1t
was characteristic Of him that he
plunged straight at what he wanted
to say.
"Tve asked to see you alone, Miss
O'Neill, because want to make con-

She had a sense Of suddenly stilled
pulses. '"That sounds very serious"
The young woman smiled family.
His face Of chiseled granite masked
all emotion. It kept under lock and
key the insurgent impulses that moved
him when he looked into the sloe eyas
charged with reserve. Back Of them,
he felt, was the mystery of purity, Of
maidenhood. He longed to know her
better, to find out and to appropriate
for himself the woman that lay behind
the fine veil of flesh. She seemed to
him delicate as a flame and as vivid.

such cases.

a considerable quantity OF impure

Prosecutions under the pure food

of the Police Courts jurisdiction was
challenged. The Supreme Court yes

nounced today. Payment must be
made on or before June 15 Failure

interests generally will pay on the

that they cannot borrow from banks

HIS OWN HOME PAPER
From the Macon Telegraph:

From the Macon Telegraph:
Personal letters from the soldiers in
France never fail to reveal the great
hunger the man in France has for the
little gossipy details, the routine and
completeness of the news from his
own home and community where his
folks are. A whole page of brief
enough letter has before now been
given up to describing the joy of
whole platoon at finding stray copy
of some American daily the majority
of them had been regular readers of
back home.
1t is a small thing for the civilian
stay-at-homes to do for the men at the
front-to put them on the mailing list
of the home town paper, the weekly
that maybe was printed half block
from where he worked back in the
U. S. A. whose every mutilated type
face he knew by heart, that daily came
into his home in the city where he
7 lived or to the nearby town or farm
that also got it every day-these pap
ers are dear to him and they can be
gotten to him in France at no more
cost than the annual subscription
price charge for delivering them next
door to their own printing plants.
The persoal letter doesn't tell all
the news he wants to know. AS a mat
ter of fact what he gets in the letter
he doesn't get in the papers and what
he gets in the papers he doesn't get
| in the letters At any rate the dough-
boy is strong for his good old home
town newspaper, to be large or small
when he gets in the trenches or back
at his rest billets and he always gets
it. 1t may be late once in a while but
he is none the less glad to get it for
that A small amount of money and
a very little troublt will put it in the
hands of some boy who'd never for
get the favor from the donor and there
are enough of us who can do this
to see to it every Georgia boty ges re-
gular while he is in France the papers
from "his own home town."
