AN UNPLEASANT SURPRISE
AWAITS SANDRA.

Rose gushed abominably when
Barrett called for US. She was 30
ELUSIVE in her thanks, taking all
the honor of the invitation to herself
in a way that really mortified and
annoyed me.
Barrett complimented me, looking
unutterable things with his eyes, then
turned and said:
''If l may be 50 bold upon short
acquaintance, may l tell you also
how charming you look, Miss
Grandon?"
Thank you, woman is always
delighted to be told she is chamring,"
Rose replied, dropping a little curt
sy, and smiling at him in what she
probably supposed was an irresist-
able manner. For a moment | felt
almost sorry l had asked Rose to Wis
it me. Then | remembered that
were she not there l would not be
able to go out with Barrett Edmonds.
We laughed and chatted all the
way to the theater and between the
acts, Barrett never left us, altho the
men all about seemed scarcely able
to wait to go out the moment the
curtain rang down. Everett never
did so, and it pleased me that Bar
rett remained with US.
The play was delightful, society
drama full of laughs I enjoyed ev-

tween US, and was perfectly impartial
in his attentions. / saw several peo-

wore on Saturday. 1t was
made of dark brown chiffon
taffeta and lined with two thick

wide, straight piece of silk, laid
in pleats across the back of the
neck and continuing loose down
the front in scarf ends ending
in tassels. This scarf effect
could just be knotted and hang
long or else be tied in large

GOVERNOR IS THREATENED

Chicago, Dec. 28.-Two secret ser
vice agents in formal dress attended
the presentation to society yesterday
OF Miss Harriet Lowden, second daugh
ter of Governor and Mrs. Frank O.
Lowdcn, as the result of the recent
by the Governor of threatening let
ter, it was disclosed today. Postofficc
inspectors believe the author of the
threat was an anarchist.
The Governor took little notice of
the letter, except to turn it over to
the Postofiice Department. 1t was re-
ccivcd last Thursday by Mrs Lowdcns
mother, Mrs. George NJ. Pullman, at
whose residence her granddaughter's
debut took place. The letter follows:
"Mr. Governor:
"Your life will soon be taken. You
are mixing with the enemies of So
cicty-thc pluocrats and the CAPT
talistic class. This cannot continue.
You will not have long to wait the
time when you will pay the penalty"

of the note and green ink or water
color on the back, but the original
photograph can easily be seen
through these colors. The counter
fcits all bear No. F8G203-A and the

WANNANAKER SEES
COTTON co HIGHER

Columbia, Dec. 27.-"A painstakng
investigation by the American Cotton
Association through the most reliable
sources in Europe for the purpose of
securing all possible information on
the exchange situation and the Euro
pcan demand for raw cotton conveys
Ihe absolute certainty of world de-
mand for 100000 bales of Ameri-
can cotton" says statement issued
today by }. Skottowc Wannamakcr,
president of the American Cotton AS
sociation.
From whence can this cotton
come ?" asks Mr.. Wannamakcr,
Enormous contracts, some at far
lower prices, both for long and short
staple cotton must be filled, cotton. is
dirt cheap today at one dollar per
pound basis middIing.
"fhe best exports in the country
have confirmed our statements that
tn" world is facing a shortage in raw
cotton and that manufactured pro-
ducts from cotton are enormously
oVcrsod. Europe will export more cot
ton than any previous year since the
war between the states
"ln our investigation we consulted
with the largest dealers throughout
Europe. Our statements that the SUD
ply of raw cotton has been far over
sold at far lower prices has been con-
frmed. Many Of the mills of America
and Europe have sold enormous
amounts OF manufactured goods at
fabulous prices. Europe is alarmed
over the absolutely certainty of 4
shortage Of raw cotton.
"Direct offers have been made from
combination of the largest Euro
pcan dealers for the largest amount
of raw cotton ever sold at one time or
the largest amount ever sold in SOW
eral consecutive deals, the price Of
Tered being far above prevailing
prices. In desperation and to secure
raw cotton an offer was made to pay
the producer the amount now being
deducted for exchange by Europe, il
being realized that exchange condi-
tions will finally become normal
with the information in hand Oh
supply and demand, worldwide and
the price Of the manufactured pro
duct, | unhcsitatingly urge the pro-
duccrs to hold their cotton. Europe
has already exported 1000 900 more
bales this year than last. In addition
to this an enormous amount of cotton
now in America has been sold already.
We are facing the absolute certainty
OF cotton selling on the basis Of fair
price"

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a very
unhappy wife. I have been married
fourteen years. l have no children,
and so l went back to the office
where I was formerly employed. All
went we'll until two years ago, when
man came into the employ whom
l loved at first sight. We became
good friends and now we truly love
each other. He understands me as
my husband never did.
My husband loves me all he is
capable of, l know, but not as this
other man does. l thought it all right
to work until this man showed me
that had my husband loved me as he
did, he never would permit me to
work
He put his arms about me one day
and apologized and said he could not
help it. 1 have been in agony since.
l can't bear my husband in sight since,
for l received a glimpse of what real
soul love Is. 1t would break my hus-
bands heart If he knew. l am so
unhappy. If l had seen this man
first l never would have looked at
my husband the second time. Please
help me and tell me If l ought to go
to my husband and tell him, as my
friend wants me to, or should l keep
on in this agony?
THE UNHAPPIEST WIFE.
1t is not pleasant to scold some
one, but can do nothing else in your
case. You need to be awakened in
some way Selfishness is back Of all
your trouble.
When you went back to the office
to work, didn't your husband consent
to your going because he thought you
would be happier there? You knew
of your husbands love for you when
the other man came into your life;
therefore you should have given uI
the position and staid away from
temptation.
Many women have tried soul love
and have found it poor substitute
for the steadfast love Of former
husband which they so selfishly dis
carded.
The man who processes his love fol
you now is contemplate and too lack
| ing in a sense of honor to make any
woman happy.
Have you character enough to dc
the honorable thing? If you have
give up your position and remain a.
| home. doing your housework, or else
get position at a place where yot
| will not see the man you think you
! love. At the end of six months i
you both care for each other as much
as you do now, tell your husband the
! truth and ask him to release you.
You seem to lack imagination, o.
you would not consider yourself 1.-THE
Unhappiest Wife" 1t would do you
good if you knew of a few really I'm
happy cases. Usually, however, {
woman who has a great deal to bear
does so uncomplaingly.

the REFUGE OF THE POOR

finger stopped running down the list.
Yeah, KEN in this mornin'. Ward 50,
through the court and up them stairs

ness in the offer. Some wistful quail
ity in Armies face evidently touched
the case-hardened orderly.
Annie thanked him, but picked up
Robbie, who was a substantial load
now, and started off in the direction
the man pointed out. At last she
found the right building, the right
floor, the right door, outside of which
fat scrubwoman was at work with
a stopping pail and rag.
That hospital smell! The faint,
sickish odor blended of carholic and
| soapsuds, anesthetics, illness and the
cooking foods. So slight in the cor
ridors of expensive sanitariums. so
grossly apparent where the poor
wards" are.
The whimsical thought struck Annie
that blind man might easily smell
his way about the city-through the
streets where markets were, the var
| ious districts devoted to produce. or
| chemicals, or leather, or flowers-into
| the tenements, into churches, theatres
and the scented homes of the rich.
OF them all, this hospital breath
must be the most melancholy, she
thought.
The ward distressed her with its
none too tidiness, its long row of beds

with pillows and looking at her
hungrily as she entered, hoping it

| She found Bernie near the end of a
row. On one side of him was a col
ored man, his head grotesquely band
aged; on the other poor fellow who
kept turning and muttering and pluck
| ing at the coarse sheet

! moment. Annie went close to Der

Annie was grateful for the sugges
gestion The doctor would tell hel
about everything. She sat gently
down on the foot of Bernie's bed
holding Robbie on her lap. The ware
had a desolate look, and the patients
in their unironed, unbleached muslin
gowns, their faces haggard and I'm
