l had carefully chosen my words
and l remember saying, with some dig
nifty, like one In story book, although
with trembling voice:
ut Is an honor to meet you, sir, and
thank you for the right to vote-when
am old enough"
Nividly, too, l remember his gentle
smile as he looked down at ME and
said In most kindly tone:
II think 1t great honor to hear
you say that"
He put his hands upon my shoulders
and turning to the senator said:
Wright, l often wish that l had
your modesty."
Il need it much more than you do"
the senator laughed.
Stralghtway l left them with an
awkward bow and blushirg to the
roots of my hair.
AS l neared the home Of Mr.. Hacket
l heard hurrying footsteps behind me
| and the voice of Sally calling my name.
| stopped and faced about.
How charming she looked as she
walked toward me! had never seen
her quite so fixed up. ..
Bart" she said. II suppose you're
not going to speak to me-"
"If you'll speak to me-" answered.
II love to speak to you," she said.
i've been looking all around for you.
Mother wants you to come over to
dinner with us at iast twelve o'clock.
You're going away with father as soon
as we get through"
wanted to go but got the notion all
at once that the Dunkclbergs were in
need Of information about me and that
the time had come to impart it. So
then and there that ancient Olympus
of our family received notice as II
were.
81 can't" I said. "Tve got to study
my lessons before so away with your
father"
1t was blow to her. l saw the
shadow that fell upon her face. She
was vexed and turned and ran away
from me without another word and |
felt pang of regret as l went to the
lonely and deserted home of the
schoolmaster.
At twelve-thirty Mr.. Dunkelberg
came for me, with housekeeping
horse In n new harness and a shiny
stillrunning buggy. He wore gloves
and beaver hat and sat very erect
and had little to say.
81 hear you met the president" he
remarked.
"Yes, sir. I was introduced to him
this morning" l answered a bit toe
proudly, and wondering how he had
heard OF my good fortune, but deeply
gratified at his knowledge of 1t.
"What did he have to say?"
described the interview and the
looks of the great man. Not much
more was said as we sped away
toward the deep woods and the hlgi
hills.
/ was eager to get home but won
dered why he should be going with me
to talk with Mr.. Grimshaw and my
uncle. OF course l suspected that Il
had to do with Amos, but how ! knew
not. He hummed In the rough golnl
and thoughtfully fllcked the bushes
with his whip. l never knew a more
persistent hummer.
Aunt Deel shook hands with Mr.
Dunkelberg and then came TO me ant
said:
"Wal, Bart Baynesl / never was 81
glad to see anybody In all the days O
my life-ayesl We been lookln' III

Under. the circumstances Mr.. Grim
shaw is afraid that Bart's story will
make 1t difficult for Amos to prove
his innocence"
Uncle Peabody shooi his head With
a look of frmness.
Again Grimshaw laughed between
his teeth as he looked at my uncle.
In his view every man had his price.
II see that I'm the mouse an you're
the cat" he resumed, as that curious
laugh ratified in his throat. Look a.
here, Baynes, I'll tell ye what I'll do.
I'll cancel the hull mortgage"
Again Uncle Peabody rose from his
chair with look In his face which
have never forgotten. How his voice
rang out
mo. slr!" he shouted so loudly that
we all jumped to our feet and Aunt
Deel covered her face with her apron
and began to cry. 1t was like the ex-
plosion of blast. Then the frag-
ments began falling with loud crash:
mo, SIRl YE CAN'T BUY THE
NAIL ON MY LITTLE FINGER OR
HIS WITH ALL YER MONEY
D-N YOUR
1t was like the shout of Israel from
the top of the mountains. Shep
bounced into the house with hair on
end and the chickens cackled and the
old rooster clnppcd his wings and
crowed with all the power of his lungs.
Every member of that little group
stood stock still and breathless.
I trembled with a fear l could not
have defined. Mr.. Grimshaw shuffled
ont of the door, his cane rapplng the
floor as If his arm had been stricken
with palsy In roment.
Mr.. Dunkelberg turned to my aunt,
his face scarlet, and muttered an apol-
ogy for the disturbance and followed
the money lender.
"Come on, Bart" Uncle Peabody
called cheerfully, us he walked toward
the barnyard. Lets go an git In
them but'nuts."
He paid no attention to our vlsi-
tors-neither did my aunt. who fol-
gether moment, unhitched their
horses, got into their buggies and
drove away.
"Wai, I'm surprised at Mr.. Horace
Dunkelberg tryin' to come 1t over us
like that-nyes be-" said Aunt Deel.
"Wal, / amt" said Uncle Peabody.
"Or Grirhshaw has got him under his
thumb-that's what's the matter.
You'll find he's up to his enrs in debt
to GrImshaw-prob'y."
AS we followed him toward the
house. he pushing the wheelbarrow
loaded with sacks Of nuts, he added
"At last Grlmshaw has found some
thin that he can't buy an he's awful
surprised. Too bad he didn't learn
that lesson long ago."
He stopped his wheelbarrow by the
the edge of the stoop as he added:
II got mad-they KEEP plckin' on me
so-Im sorry, but couldn't help 1t.
We'll start up agin somewheres II we
have to. There's good many days

ACCURACY Better Than Speed.

People who go In for speed records
are not as wise as they think they are,
for speed without accuracy is of no
avail. True, time is at a premium In
every line these days and we should
not under any circumstances waste
minute unnecessarily. But IL we aren't
sure about any phase Of our work we
must take sufficient time to 60 into 1t
and not rely on chance to help us
where we can possibly help ourselves.

stincts Of a Profiteer.

- Nine-year-old Virginia's aunt hat
gone visiting and left her small niece
in charge of her flowers, garden and
strawberry bed. "You can have all
the money you get for selling straw
berries" her aunt told her. "Since
you're going to sell them to mother
and grandma, you'd better just charge
them:about 10 cents a quart"
Virginia was frankly disappointed.
She wanted to make money from those
strawberries. Auntie, noticing the
hesitation. told her how disappointed
both mother and grandmother would
be If they had to pay the same price
they would have to pay at the grocery.
Still Virginia was not impressed.
She frowned and frowned until sud-
denly a look Of relief came. "Oh,
auntie," she exclaimed. II know what
I'll do. I'll charge them 8 cents war
tax on each box."-1ndianapolis News.

REALTY TRADE
RETURNS JOBS
TO SERVICE MEN

A few days after the armistice with
Germany was signed the Realty Man
ayers Association passed resolution
urging its members to take back t'1eir
employees who had entered the nation
al service The members of the ass ,
citation are abiding faithfully by the
resolution. and at present very few
Of the ex-realty employees who have
been discharged from the army and
navy are without their former posi-
tions.
In the building trades the employ
ers' association has adopted the same
wise policy. Business is still not up
to the pre-war standard, although
building operations have increased
greatly since the signing of the arm
istice and the release of building ma
terials by the war labor board. The
building employers are urging the
cities of the United States to embark
on large policy Of public improve
ments. which will not only give work
to hundreds of thousands of people
throughout the United States, but
will have a stimulating effect upon all
classes of business.
Colonel Arthur Woods assistant to
the secretary of war, has Endorsed the
policy. and is urging the chambers OF
commerce TO lend their aid in this
fight. The larger cities of the coun-
try. like New York. Chicago and Phil
adelphia, have already commenced
their program of increased public i'm
provements. Colonel Woods has ex-
pressed his opinion that before long
there may be a shortage of labor in
stead of a surplus. and advises all Ear
sighted employers to insure them
selves against that contingency.
