ANDREW AND IMOGENE
BY ROE FULKERSON,

They had finished dinner and were still
at the table, Ida had placed an ash tray
in front Of Andrew and he had lighted his
after-dinner cigarette.
''Dearie,' he said looking across at Imo-
gene, II was sitting in my office this after
noon thinking about you. ,
81 was just thinking that I am not al
ways as nice to you as I ought to be.
81 don't believe any man is as nice to his
wife after they have been married eighteen
or twenty years He sort of gets into the
habit of fencing her off when she asks for
money jumping on her when things do not
go right at the office, and just sort of gets
grouchy without any reason at all except
that he knows she is the one person who
will stand for 1t and not fight back
81 am sorry for all that, dear, and as
sat there made up my mind that l was
going to cut out all that stuff and try to be
nice to you now when we were first
married.
81 know I was grumpy as the dickens
the other day when you said something to
me about money to buy robes for that lit
tie car of yours, and there wasn't any use OF
my being either for Of course knew they
would have to be bought
81 started to go down this afternoon
when I was thinking about it, but then
concluded that you had better taste than
have and SO you go and pick them out when
you like and go as far as you want n l
est believe as long as / have any money
I ought to let you have the fun of spend
ing it, for goodness knows that's all I
hustle around and get it for.
''Now I know Of course that you have to
have some new stuff for winter, something
to wear around the shows and places where
we go to blow ourselves.
"You are as good looking as any that
trot around these places and l believe you
entitled to have the scenery to set you
off and you going to have it to the
limit of my bank roll.
Figure it out for yourself and let me
know the amount and 1 will dig her up for
you if it takes a leg. I want you to put
their eyes out.
''There are no pockets in shrouds, you
know, Puddin' Pie, and don't see any rea-
son for US trying to pile up too much for
an old age when we won't care to spend =
"Now L want you to ask me for any,
thing 49,.
Andrew" interrupted Imogene, looking
him steadily in the eye across the table,
"What have you done?"
Huh" said Andrew, puzzled.
''You heard what l said" replied In7ogene.
81 asked you what you had been dolngA
You know very we'll what 1 mean.
81 have a sort of a sword of Damocles
feeling feeling that you have been doing
something awful and that it is hanging
over my head suspended by a hair, and
don't like it.
eff you are building a foundation on
which to stand and tell me you have said
enough Out with it,
''Why honey" said Andrew, in a hurt
tone. 81 am not establishing any alibi or
anything like that I mean just what L
said, and there is nothing behind it. just
feel that I haven't been nice to you that's
all"
81 don't know" said Imogene, doubtfully;
sit doesn't sound natural"

THE OLD GARDENER SAYS

While few amateurs are familiar with corn
salad, this is an excellent plant to grow in
the vegetable garden at this season of the
year. 1t keeps green for a long time after
winter comes, and often can be dug out from
under the snow In appearance it is much
like loose-leaf lettuce, but is smaller. The
individual leaves are gathered and served
IN salad often being mixed with potatoes.
celery, or other vegetables. You can SOW it
either in drills six inches apart or BROADCAST
il on ground which has been worked over
with an iron rake. Just barely cover with
soil. When the ground begins to freeze cover
the plants lightly with straw or leaves.

The Drainage Congress
-HE converting of the eleventh annual
American Drainage Congress, at Kan

American Drainage Congress, at Kan
sas City, Missouri, today directs
tion-wide attention to matters of vital import
to both agriculture and industry, particular
Z y to those of the South.
Authorities estimate that in this region
there are some fifty million acres Of swamp
and wet lands now worth, at the highest al
lowa5le average, not more than ten dollars
an acre, and in large part probably not
more than one, which, if properly drained,
would be worth, at the lowest, one hundred
dollars an acre. That is to say, the value of
this immense aggregate of soil could be in
creased from five hundred million to five
billion dollars; and that would be but the
beginning of multiplied returns from its pro-
ductive power.
If there were chance of securing for the
South a government appropriation of even
one billion dollars, every city and country
side within the regions bounds would be
stirred to enthusiasm and exert the utmost
possible energy to win that good fortune.
Yet, by persistent effort in the drainage
cause, which receives but meager popular
support in comparison with it's Importance,
the South can secu4 many billions of in
creased and ever-inci easing values.
Nor is there a commonwealth from the
Potomac to the Gulf more materially con-
cerped in such opportunities than is Geor-
gia He" area of swamp and overlooked
lands is the largest, with the Ole exception
of Florida's on the Atlantic seaboard, COM
prising approximately one-seventeenth of
her entire territory. Upwards of seven mil
lion seven hundred and twenty thousand
acres of the state are involved much Of this
being 'incomparablJ fertile soil. Less than
twenty thousand ACES of this vast total, &C
cording to the records now before us, have
been reclaimed This means that the great
labor, from which Georgia can derive mil
lions upon millions of increased prosperity,
has barely begun.
The National Drainage Congress will take
renewed notice of these and kindred prob
lens. May it's sessions be richly profitable
in results both for the south and for the
common country.

May CHANGE METHOD
or ENGINE STAMPING

New York, Feb. Recognizing
that the first step the automobile thief
takes in changing the Identity Of stol.
on automobiles is to alter the engine
numbers SO that the automobile en-
CINE cannot be identified, the engine
division Of the Society Of AutOm0tve
Engineers, at the suggestion Of auto
mobile insurance companies, has
recommended revisiOns in the method
OF numbering engines which was ap.
proved for general use in 1916. The
revisions proposed are believed to be
the simplest, most effective and praC
tical system for numbering engines
which has been devised for protecting
automobiles against theft.
How Numbers Will Be Placed.
These recommendations provide
that the engine serial or Identification
number shall be placed near the top
OF the right-hand side Of the crankCase
proper in a position in which it can
be read easily. 1t shall be between
two vertical ribs of beads a in. wide
"a in. high, 3 in. long and 3 in. apart
The surface of the casting between
the ribs snail be left rough as cast
and Imprinted on the finished engine.
The numbers shall be evenly stamped
III the casting 1872 in. deep and shall
be 4 in. high and of script form
The first digit shall be stamped
close to the left hand rib and the last
digit shall be followed by a large star
or other character to prevent adding
digits. A star or other character also
shall be stamped Immediately above
and below each number to prevent
adding another number. The num-
Der shall be stamped twice on each
casting, to permit correcting any err.
rors made in stamping either number.
No other number or character shall
be placed within the space provided.
Will Reduce Premiums.
BY this method in case an error is
made in stamping either number, an
additional number would be stamped
directly under or above the number,
