not make a fitting epitaph for thou

to branch out; they were afraid to at

until the habit of putting off had be-

to get ahead.

Andrea's eyes started at the top OF
the zigzag path and followed it DELHI

reached and swept the cleaning cres-

stared at the placid moon. Nine
weeks, no more, had passed since last

was packed the germ of all her life

memories She felt a yelling within
her of all the major emotions and

CHAPTER XIV.

They were all early to bed, the word
having gone out to break camp at
dawn for safari. The bishop and his
companions were northward bound
Andrea and her man headed for the
south and the coast. In the cold mist
of the morning they parted with tight
handclasps and earnestly murmured
"God-bless-yOu's."
Incidents, following rapidly one after
the other, kept Andrea's mind off the
coming encounter with her old world
until she was actually on It's verge.
Late one afternoon they came upon
the bay and Trevor waited expectantly

said, "Well my dear, that settles it

"Most certainly" answered Trevor
gravely and opened the door for his
lordship.
In ten minutes the associates were
persuaded; in half an hour with the
assistance of the diamond magnate's
engagement ring, Andrea and Trevor
were made man and wife according to
the ancient usage of the Church OF
England; and just five minutes after
that, Bathtub announced dinner. IT

The strong probability that prohi-

is one of the reasons more than per-
functory attention is being given to
plans for capturing the woman's vote,
Liquor Stand Is Question.
Time was when the "drys" regarded
the woman vote as certain to be cast
in their favor. But from reports
brought in from various parts of the
country to party headquarters here,
the women this Year would be just as
likely to vote for a more liberal policy
of prohibition enforcement as their
menfolk.
But political scouts report that the
women are no more enthusiastic about
the treaty than the men. but that both
men and women want some kind of
league or organization that win pre-
vent war.
Old Theory Exploded.
So that when the political wise men
here sit down to figure out the effect
of the womens votes this year. they
can't do it. They say the old saying
that women will vote as the men vote
has been exploded and that the women

votes on any particular issue might in
a degree be measured. politicians said

English Investors Will Try CC ton Raising
 in Georgia
(By International News esrv1ce.


 London, Dec. 20.-Any Englishman who wishes to invest in a cotton growing estate in the vicinity of '"rlle Garden City of Albany now has the chance, according to an advertfseme1 published in the Manchester Guar dian.
 Referring to cotton-growing in the vicinity of Albany is liable to give the average New Yorker somewhat of a shock at first, until a perusa1 of the advertisement discloses that the Al bany mentioned is in southern Geor- gia.
 "A group of Lancashire investors having acquired a large estate in south Georgia, U. S. Az to grow cot ton for their own use, are prepared to dispose of a certain amount of their land in plots suitable for cotton-grow- ing or mixed farming says the ad- vertisement.
 Among the many advantages men toned is the tfact'' that three crops a year 'tare ordinary farming practice in these regions tI does not state. ! however, that cotton is one of the pos abilities in these three crops. A concluding note states that only applications backed by both capital | and character can be entertained.
