Besides, it is your plain duty to stay here and entertain me. l have come here as a dinner guest, my hostess mand a substitute"
 His whimsical smile, his brilliant eyes with a slight trace of mockery in them, told me that he had prompt ing my embarrassment. The same eyes evidently meant me to infer other things-that my new blouse was especially becoming that my whole appearance was not displeas- ing and that seeing me again was a rare pleasure
 The tinge of mOCkery in his eyes and smile put me on my mettle in an instant. l nave always felt for Allen Drake a bit of antagonism, even in the moments when I was most com pelled to admire his wonderful ability. I know that to him a womans mentality is not a serious thing, and that his general opinion of the sex is not especially high one. He has always given me the impress sion that feminine idiosyncracies, of which he necessarily sees many in his profession afforded him the keenest amusement, and I have always an un- easy impression when with him that he is watching my brain processes much as he might watch the antics of some insect impaled upon a spindle.
 There are few women staid enough to resist the temptation to compel recognition of their power from a man of Allen Drake's type. I felt a little thrill of anticipated mental jousting as I turned back from the doorway.
 'I can never be a substitute for Mrs. Underwood" I murmured meek 1 ly, but it is always my aim to please"

FEARED HIGHTAXES AND
HOSTILE LEGISLATION
These Are Suggestions for the Sale
of Coca-Cola Company. $25,OOO,-
600 Considered Small Price.

ATLANTA, Ga.-The announce
ment of the sale of an option on the
Coca-Cola Company to firm of New
York bankers for S25,000,OOO has
created an immense sensation in At
lanta.
In the first place the public was
astounded to read that the company
was to be sold; in the second place
there was much surprise that 1t
should be sold for s25,OO0,OOO'
which was considered by most peo@
nile to be a small price.
The latter is explained upon TWO
suppositions;
/ That the company is being be.
set bv much hostile legislation OF
one kind and another.

cd at $4,000, which has the effect
of making it pay very heavy eX-

CHICAGO.-Chicago plants are

''Ir fact, labor unrest is pronounc-

"Another class of labor making

NEW YORK, N. "a city-coun-
try home, the only house of the kind
ever planned for New York city, will
top new apartment house at Madi-
son avenue and Seventy-second

are eager to rent the place, although
the price is $4,000 a year. More
than S1,OOO,OOO will be invested in
the two new and interesting struct-
ures.
Even Shrubbery and Gardens.
The first New York city-country
home will be Italian in design, 80
feet wide and 80 feet long. 1t will

where there will be an open all
sleeping porch.
The third floor will be girdled by
a heavy stone balustrade. Back OF

PARIS TALKS OF
YIELDING TO CONGRESS
SOME LEADERS, IN DESPAIR,
ADVOCATE GIVING WAY TO
SENATE. WANT OUR AID.

IS.-Ex-President Taft's let
ter to Chairman Hays, summaries of
which have been published in Paris,
has produced comment in allied quar-
tiers that shows a curious reaction.
So great is the anxiety to have the
American senate ratify the Yer
sailIes treaty without delay and per-
nit the United States to enter the
league of nations that some of those
who deprecate the senate's opposition
are becoming resigned to the rather
despairing view that it is better to
swallow the dose embodied in the
proposed reservations than have the
present world disturbance continue
through the disquietude caused by
agitation in America.
One or two-perhaps as many as
thereof those prominent, or fairly
so, in the American peace contingent
are of the opinion that reservations
by the senate in the league covenant
!
will not necessarily keep the United
States out of participation in the ex-
ecution of the treaty for any great
period.
Opposed to Wilson's Contentious.
In modification of this view 1T is
explained that the allied powers
might assent to the admission of the
United States into the league of ma
tons without the acceptance by these
allies of the reservations which SEN
ate critics desire to make.
Some British and French observers
express the opinion that reservations
by the senate might not keep the
United States out of the league until
the president had accomplished what
is regarded as the possible task of IN
ducing other signatory governments
subscribe to the senate's exceptions
These suggest that if the senate ratl-
fies the treaty in time to permit Its
reservations to be considered by the
supreme council of the peace confer
ence the members of the council, act
ing for the powers, may accept the
American ratification as regular, but
without giving assent IN behalf OF
the powers to the senate's qualifying
| clauses.

Sweets That Never Reached Young

MACON, Ga.-A two-pound box
of candy that never reached its own

FOOD PRICES DUE TO
SOAR STILL HIGHER
GOING TO FIGURES NEVER BE-
FORE DREAMED OF. ENGLAND
is IN HARD STRAITS.

LONDON, Eng.-Prophecy that
the price of food next winter will
,"climb to level never dreamed of"
was uttered by Sir Auckland Geddes,
the British minister of reconstruc-
ton, in an address at Crewe recent
ly.
A member of the audience shouted,
more wages" Sir Auckland replied
that there would be no money to pay
wages because it would have to go
overseas to pay for food.
The minister warned the public
that it was squandering its money in
colossal way on things that did not
matter.
"You cannot live like millionaires,"
he said, eff you're as poor as church
mouse. This nation is now poor. 1t is
living as if it were wealthy"
More Beer.
More beer is being brewed ia
Great Britain, yet people complain
of a shortage. This he attributed to a
doubling of the amount of beer con-
sumed because, since the war, there
was more time to drink it and more
money to pay for it.
By sending overseas for beer, silk
for stockings and feathers for hats,
Sir Auckland said, the people were
increasing Britain's debt for things
that did not matter. what you ought
to get are food and raw material, F."
he declared.
Sir Auckland denounced the limi-
tation of output as "stark, staring
lunacy" The mill owners, he said,
limited output to obtain higher prices
and the operators limited it to make
work for more people.

PROFTTEERING in
COAL Is ALLEGED
ALABAMA CONGRESSMAN DE-
CLARES EXORBITANT PRICES
ARE CHARGED PEOPLE.

WASHINGTON, D. Coal oper-
ators now are profteering, George
Huddleston, Alabama congressman
and owner of coal lands, charged
here on Thursday.
"If you buy your winter coal now
you'll pay exorbitant prices dictated
by a combination" said Huddleston.
But if you wait until later to fill your
cellar you may be forced by the coal
combination to pay still more, un-
less congress acts or the department
Of justice throws a scare into the
operators, he said.
Huddleston recently asked the jus
tice department. to investigate the
coal situation.
"There is no doubt that a combi-
nation, either expressed or implied,
exists among men who have to do
with coal production and distribu-
tion," said the Alabaman.
"The combination is intended to
maintain prices and restrict produc-
ton"
Goal operators now are spending
a mint of money on bluff propaganda
to brighten the nation into buying
coal now," said Huddleston.
Operators say the reason coal
production has dropped off is because
there is no market for coal. They
declare that is the reason so many
mines are idle.
"The truth is that coal prices are
too high. Prices now are exorbitant.
That's why there is no market now.
"The propaganda threatens that a
coal famine will occur next winter
unless orders pour in now. Higher
prices are also threatened.
"The operators say they can not
get miners because 100000 foreign
born diggers have gone back to Eu-
rope. They also say the railroads
next winter will be unable to handle
the coal shipments because cars will
be short.
"All of this is a misstatement of
facts. have letter from j. B. Dens-
more of the United States employ
ment service saying that 100000
men now are working in connection
with mines, and that thousands of
miners have been idle since the ar
mistice.
"That shows the operators can get
miners if they want them"

There is said to be no direct prece-

is causing wide discussion in Legal

Legal experts of England have dis
