She looked very mischievous as she
insisted on having the bets put in

over the dining room mantel.
After dinner she played discreet

Nothing to be alarmed about

DIR. Burr hurried out into the corri-
dor while Miss Giles was looking out
of the door.
Quickly Kennedy reached over and
abstracted several drops from DOL
tie of tonic on the table. pouring 1t
into his handkerchief, which he rolled
up tightly and stuffed into his pocket.
Mrs. Crsnston watched him plead

appeal, with a hasty glance at MISS
Giles.
Kennedy said nothing. either. but

Giles shut the door and turned to US.
The excitement subsidized almost as
quickly as it had arisen, but it had
been sufficient to put a stop to Nny

Down the hall a door had been

hastily closed the door as we passed

STATE TREASURY MAKES A
SHOWING

"A Pierre report states that while
the showing of cash in the general
fund of the state at the close of
business April 30, was at S2,350,00
this will not be on hand for long,
as 1t is planned to call one million
dollars of tax anticipation war
rants, which were sold several
months ago and no new ones will
be issued in their place.
In fact this means that on May
q, there will be no general fund
Indebtedness for the state, every
thing being on cash basis.
This will be the first time for
quite a period when there were
no obligations standing out against
the general fund, but there has
not been registration of warrants
as tax anticipation warrants coulG
be sold for far less interest," rate
than registered warrants bear.
Amonts carried in other than
the general fund are S1,6l1,000 in
the soldiers bonus fund; this has
been reduced since the last of the
month; the interest and income
fund for public schools is S793, 1872;
and the cement fund is at $27S, 900
the Irvine plant fund showed a
balance of S47.8l9; the motor We

way fund was $99,9S6; the hail in
surance fund $358,0O0; the soldiers

ty agricultural extension fund is
S65,39S; and the federal Smith

home their youngest baby girl
passed away. 1t seemed in its us

once only on the return trip 1t
grew restless and cried, after
which nothing unusual occurred.
Imagine their surprise and sorrow
and the awful shock it gave them
to find on their arrival home that
their baby was dead. The funeral
took place at four o'clock Satur-

friendship never dies Well meet

no sting to death and so the grave
