YER loving cup, offered BY the A.

The Moline delegates not only

will insist on having the 1898 con-
vention staged in Moline. Moline
wanted the convention this year,
but the request was deferred pend
ing the completion Of the LeClaire
hotel.
More than score Of Moline real
tors will attend the meeting. An
entire day will be devoted to the
discussion Of taxation. with partic-
ular stress on the subject Of en-
ploying permanently q county tax
commissioner.
The convention, 1t is understood,
will recommend the election of q
county assessor, who will be at the
service Of the taxpayers all the
year around, instead Of devoting
only three months to the work as
is the practice now. Under the
present system, assessors are
elected from each township to serve
three months. According to the
realtors, no man can properly take
care of the assessors duties In that
time.
Payment of taxes twice . year in
stead Of yearly also will be advo-
Gated at the convention.

Jack Asks Helen to Drop Barnes.

CliAt T. II lgNll.
Helen's club activities had grown
until they had assumed alarming
proportions as regarded all other
interests in her life. Had these clubs
been literary. political, or of some
broadening or helpful nature II
might not so have mattered. But
they were not. They were all card
clubs, or claimed to be. That other
games were occasionally played Is a
matter of no importance, What was
important especially to Jack, was
that Helen spent her days. and his
money over the card table.
She had taken series after series
OF lessons of Mrs Newell, although
she claimed to play as well as any
of her friends. She seldom now
told Jack when she won. never,
when she lost. But he knew! Her
pretty face would harden and look
In her eyes invariably told the story.
Save for absolute necessities and
to keep himself looking neat, Jack
gave Helen all he earned often he
begged her to open a bank account,
to save something, and always she
answered:
when you earn enough I will.
But 1t is out of the question until
you do"
She insisted that Jack have dress
clothes. that he look well-groomed.
She also insisted that whenever they
went out at night they have a taxi.
People in full dress look like
fools in a street carl" she replied TO
Jacks objections. Neil Layton says
she would rather stay at home than
ride in a car when she is dressed"
Let's stay at home then. That
would suit me right down to the
ground"
Indeed we won't stay at home
Neither will we ride in the street
cars. Run along. dear. and call a
taxi" And dear" would do as he
was bid. That a growing rebellion
was dawning in his soul, not even he
scarcely realized.
In spite OF Jacks dislike OF play
Ing cards for money. Helen had in
sisted upon Joining one club OF men
and women that met one evening
