Thereupon she made her way down Central avenue and stopped at the sales room of the Ferguson -Keeler company. The Apperson appealed to her, she told an obliging salesman of that institu tion, and she would really consider a demonstration. No. thank you, she need not have a driver, for she was perfectly capable of driving herself and would really prefer to do so.
 The wager was won by Mrs. Gar wood, but all unbeknownst to the obliging salesman and the generosity of Billy Ferguson, until after her re- turn late in the afternoon when she

 So enthusiastic had she become over the performance of the Apperson and because of the many flattering com ments she had received from her friends, regarding the cars beauty, that she decided she would really make her bluff good and buy the car.

First sorshevik Republic.

A writer in a French newspaper has
discovered that a bolsheyik republic
existed In China seventy years ago, at
Chetuga, in Manchuria. 1t was found
ed by conscript miners who had been
sent by the Chinese Emperor to dig
for gold. These men, treated as slaves,
deserted and established Communist
republic in the mountains. Their e1.
ample was followed by an entirely DIFF
ferent class, q race Of brigands, who
however, continued to spoil the
Egyptians" while leaving their COM
munist neighbors unmolested. Their
menfolk are now policing Manchuria
on behalf of Japan. which adopted the
plan Of setting thieves to catch thieves,
and in return for their services pro-
tected them from Chinese and Russian
prosecutors.

Mind Working One Way.

Hopelessly imbecile, an inmate Of a
Devonshire (England) poor.law home
for the insane possesses wonderful
memory. If the number Of any psalm
be mentioned this man can at once
recite the whole psalm. Given the
number Of hymn, he can repeat all
the verses, But, more wonderful still,
If he be given a date In any year. he
can tell the day Of the week on which
that date occurred.
Here is g poser for mind experts.
This poor mans brain lacks all the
qualities which make for sanity, save
one. The faculty Of memory may have
been normal at the mans birth, and
constant practice may have marvel
lousy developed 1t. Whatever the e1-
PLANTATION may be, the marvel Is that
mind capable Of such tremendous
feat did not grow into an organ Of
reason.

bill. and drew a sight draft on the
merchant through the local bank.
which returned the draft unhonored.
The wholesalers then wrote to the

the postmaster replied laconically that
It was O. K.
BY return mail the wholesalers re-
quested him to "hand the inclosed
account to the leading lawyer" Of the
place for collection.
This is the reply that they received !:
"The undersigned is the merchant

your worthless goods. The undersigned
Is president and owner Of the bank to

Unteruational News service.)

PARIS. April 13.-Americans are
gradually gaining control of the prin-
cipal dancing palaces Of Paris. and
there are murmurs Of discomfort COM
ing from the French dancing man
ayers. .... ..s4-.
The Americans got their foothold
during the war, when dancing was Of
ficially banned, but when several clan
destine places were operated by wide
ly separated parts of the city. They
were, for the most part, former MEM
bers of American ambulance units
serving with the French army, who
combined slight knowledge of
French and French business affairs
with a considerable knowledge of how
to run a dancing place. that would
attract a crowd OF "allnighters." The
police made nightly descents upon
these dancings and closed them, only
to learn that they had reopened in
another place a few nights later. ANY
empty private house with large
ball room or several rooms connect
ing with each other was speedily con-
verted into a rendezvous for the early
morning tango fiends.
When dancing was officially rein
stated Harry Pilcer put the Ameri-
cans on the map by opening a gay
dancing place in the Apollo Theater.
Pilcer's success was SO great that
dancings began springing up all over
the city. Moving picture houses,
theaters, skating rinks and even pri-
vate houses were turned into ball
rooms, and one enterprising youth
was about to convert an abandoned
church into a fox trot parlor when
the ex-parishioners intervened and
| stopped him.
The American jazz band stepped
right in along with the American
dance promoters. The Washington
Square Palace, big dancing hall In
the Champs Elysee district. was
opened, with several Americans as
part owners. Another dancing hall
with special Chinese ballroom.
sprang into life in the Rue St Didier.
also owned by Americans.
In the Montmartre district at least
three of the dancings to which tour
lists and sight-seers flock nightly are
