tion.
No one IN the convention was
more surprised over the sudden Cox
landslide on the 44th ballot than the
Cox managers themselves. the gov

he might eventually be nominated.
OF course, but they had no idea II
was coming so suddenly.
ut was generally understood that
McAdoo, having been given one
more chance for rally, which
failed, tho Cox forces were TO be
given The same opportunity and It
was said to produce the same re-
suits.
I'VE had agreements by which
Alabama voted two to six for Davis

solidly for him on tho 18th ballot
and this was to be followed by
enough other states to run his vote

While admitting his disappoint-
ment in the failure OF the conven-

whose smoke they inhaled and pulled
out of their mouths and noses. Later
they discovered that the leaves of a
plant were rolled In the leaf Of maize.
The first clear account of smoking
was given In 1925 by Gonzalo Herman
dez de Oviedo In his "Historia General
de las lndias" He said the practice
was pernicious and fused to produce
insensibility." He reported that In
Cuba and most of the islands the ma
tives smoked rolls Of herbs, (which
they called tobaccos,' while on the
mainland they inhaled through the
forks of Y-shaped hollow cane which
they inserted In both nostrils. This
instrument the natives called "tobago."
The Spaniards thought the name was
that of the fuel instead of the pipe,
hence our word tobacco. Oviedo point
ed out the mistake, but tobacco" had
worked itself into she white mans Ian
guage, and there it stayed. The herb
itself was variously known among the
natives. 1t was "cohiba" to the Caribs,
"petun" to the Braziians, "piecelt" to
the Mexicans and "uppowoc" to the
Indians of Virginia.
Nicotine, the active chemical prin-
ciple of tobacco, Is an intensely poison

introduced tobacco into France as a
medicinal plant. Hence, finally, "My

In 1868 not enough cigarettes were
consumed In the United States to be
subjected to the internal revenue Tux
In recent years the Increase has been
/ by billions. From 1899 to 1914 1t was
| 500 per cent. In the past two years
the demand has advanced prodlgiously,
probably largely because of the war.
In 1910, for the first time, the man.
ufacture of cigarettes exceeded that of
cigars, their relative numbers being
| $500, 100000 and S,0O0.0 100000 Since
then, while cigarettes have multiplied
cigars have Just about stood still. In
the year ended June 30, 1919, the num-
Der OF cigarettes was 46.500, 900 900.
and of cigars approximately S,000,OO0,-
600, as in 1910. For the first time moro
leaf tobacco went into cigarettes than
into cigars, the two numbers being
TT, 100000 pounds and 1872 100000
pounds.
The government derived from the in.

of the tobacco money came from ciga-

been heavily increased.
Altogether we used 497, 079.920
pounds of tobacco last year. We got
away with 174,697 ,40S pounds of plug.
1890, 465 pounds of twist, $500, 225
pounds Of finecut, 257 1893, 44O pounds
of smoking tobacco and 37,1SO,3S2
pounds of snuff.
The value of the tobacco crop to the
farmer was estimated last year at
S542 SAT 900. The average price he got
for it was 80 cents a pound. He gets
more now.
More than $1,000, 100000 year Is
the value of tobacco products manufac-
tured in the United States. More than
million and half acres of land are
devoted to the growing of the weed"
On the manufacturing side the govern
ment estimate of the capital invested
In 1914 was $500, $4,000, which was
low figure even then and is greatly
exceeded now. The number of wage
earners in manufacture in that year
was 17SS72, and their annual earnings

1t is variously figured that 20 per
cent of our adult male population and
a third of our total population use to-
bacco in one form or another The per-
capita consumption, counting each man,
woman and child. is seven pounds
year. The average consumption among
the tobacco users is twenty pounds.
There are, according to one of the COM

smokers each lighting $500 cigarettes
year and 100000 cigar smokers

The Streets of Life

a reflection of that dream OF hers in
which she had been hurrying
through narrow streets passing peo-
pie who did not look to left or
right. Only she never saw that
light reaching her from a great dis
lance, that light that, streaming
ahead, spilled its radiance over the
street of happiness.
One afternoon after a concert she
wandered into a crowded taaroom
and sat alone at one of the small
tables. a slender. arresting figure. 1t
was an unusually warm day, and
she wore a suit of gray silk and a
wide gray hat. Snowy frills fell
away from her throat, and half hid
her slender ringless hands. She
wore a long heavy rope chain of
silver, TO which was attached a
heavily carved locket. This had
been her mothers.
AS she came into the place a man
seated at a table nearby half rose
from his chair and then sank back
into 1t. OF course 1t was impossible,
this girl could not be Anne Carter,
but the resemblance as she came in
had been uncanny. She sat with
her face half turned from him, the
shadowy brim successfully hiding
her. Then Is the music trembled
into sound she turned, and looked
directly into his eyes with wide,
startled, gray mes. 1t was Anne,
and Dane Grey was on his feet In
an instant.
Her face vas absolutely white and
her eyes dark as he bent over her,
and she raised her gray eyes to
blue ones so passionate that her
own fell before them. They were
both oblivious of every one else in
the room, and she was only vaguely
conscious Of the fact that he was
paying her check and hurrying her
out. She had IN absurd feeling that
she would follow him anywhere,
that tomorrows did not matter, yes
terdays were forgotten, nothing
mattered but the present and the
fact that they were together.
Outside he helped her into a tax
icab and the minute the door closed
behind them she was in his arms.
He kissed her tenderly and she
yielded to his embrace. For the
present there was no need of expla-
nations, no need of questions and
answers and the clearing UP of mis-
understandings-all that would
come later. For the present they
had each other and they were alone
in the dusky twilight, that was
enough
