| he ever goc to any domestic matter, jand Isabelle confided to her almost all her duties and cares. Nina, insatiably ] curious, had gathered no more than 1 hat Miss Harriet's father had been a college professor of languages, and that her only relative was a married sister, Linda, much older, who had l four children, and lived in New Jer sey.
 She was a master of the art of keep ing silent, this young woman, and but for her beauty she might have been as incOnspicuous as she sincerely tried to be. But her simple gowns and her plainly massed hair only served to emphasize the extraordinary dis tinction of her appearance, and her ut most effort to Obliterate herself could not quite keep her from notice. Old | Mrs. Carter, who for reasons perfectly comprehenSible in an old lady who had once been handsome herself, de tested Harriet, and said to her daughter-in-law that in her opinion
 there was something queer about the girl.
 She was of that always-arresting type that combines a warm dusky skin with blue eyes and fair hair. The eyes. in her case, were a soft smoky blue, set in thick and inky black lashes, and the hair was brassy gold,
 banded carelessly but trimly about her rothar hraa1 fnrohooA Hor rnnufh i was wide, deep crimson, thin-lipped i; it was a mouth of secrets and of mys- tery, of character, mouth that had known the trembling of pain and grief perhaps, but a firm mouth now, and beautiful one.
 Looking at her, an artist would have fancied her a bold and charming and boyish-looking little girl, fifteen
 years ago, with that Greek chin and
 that tawny mane would have seen her sexless and splendid in her early teens, with q fiat breast and an untamed eye. And a rOmancer might have wondered what paths had led her. in the superb realization of her beautiful woman hood, at twenty-seven, to this subor- dinate position in the home of a self made rich man, and this conventional tea table on a terrace over the Hud- son.
 Nearly half-past five. Nina," she said, presently. "GO and change and brush, that's darling! You look rather tumbled."
 Nina raochinp for a marron ohedt- ently wandered away. and immediately the empty chair beside Harriet was taken by newcomer, Richard Carter himself, the owner of all this smiling estate, who had come up from the little launch at the landing, had changed hastily into white dannels, Harriet saw at a glance, and had un- expectedly joined them for tea.
 "Tea, Mr. Carter?" Harriet ven. tured.
 He was watching his wife with a sort of idle interest. She had to re- peat her invitation.
 If you please, Miss Field! Tea
 sounded right. somehow, to me today. It's been terrible day!"
 "I can imagine itl" Harriet's voice was pleasantly commonplace. But the moment had it's thrill for her. This lean, tall, tired man, with his abstract manner, his perfunctOry courtesies. his nervous, clever hands. loomed in oddly heroic proportions in Harriet's life. His face was keen and somewhat lined under smooth crest of slightly graying hair; he smiled very rarely, but there was a certain kindliness in his gray eyes. when Nina ar W"-"

band knew it, everyone knew 1t. There was always some man paying desperate court to her, and always half-a-dozen other men who were eager to be in his place. Isabelle lived for this, went from one adven- ture to another with the naive conti- dence of Q woman whose husband smiles upon her playing, and whose position is impregnable.
 But this boy, this Anthony. was diff ferent. In the first place he was yOung-but twenty-siX. In the second place he was, or had been, her own sons closest friend. Ward Carter was twenty-two, and his mother nineteen years older.
 Anthony was young, and he was ab- sIrd, but he did not know it. and Isa- belle began to feel the difficulty of keeping the whole world from discov- ering it before he did. He made no Sc cret of his passion. He came straight to her in any company; he never looked at anybody else. To her own daughter Nina. seventeen years old. his attitude was almost paternal; he ignored Ward as If their friendship had never been.
 Isabelle saw that she had made a

urgent need in Virginia, and was
held in general esteem.
Since passing into the hands of
Mr.. Davis, however, while still
furnishing information to the
farmer, it has assumed the politi-
cal complexion already noted. OF
course we have no criticism to
make of Mr.. Davis in owning and
publishing this journal to promote
his political fortunes. That is his
unmistakable prerogatiye, If he
chooses to do so; and its praise OF
him and his works, and criticism
of others, is for the most part a
matter of good taste and judg-
ment, the propriety OF which must
be determined solely by him.
Our main interest in the matter
is that the people of Virginia, and
especially the farmers, shall be ac-
quainted with the facts OF the
ownership and control OF this pub
lication, in order that they may
give proper weight to its utteranc'
es and political propaganda. 1t IS
very apparent that when The
Southern Planter commendS' Mr..
| Westmoreland Davis, 1t is the
president and owner praising hlm-
self; and that when it expresses
political opinions, it is the presi-
dent and owner speaking for his
own advancement.
This fact, once understood by
the electorate, will doubtless have
its due influence in determining
the makeup of its ballot at the pri-
maries in August.

WISE WOMEN

times states regarding his writings
that they were but collection of

Women"
Do you realize that in those times
the women, and not the men, knew
about the healing properties of medi-
cinal plants, roots and herbs? From
the earliest times, women had a
knowledge of the treatment Of dis
ease and of the healing merits of
roots and herbs.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound was originated by a woman,
lydia F. Pinkham, and is now known
and praised by women of all ages. 1t

ing medicinal action of great value
in the treatment Of troubles women
so often have.

NEWSPAPER ORGANS IN
POLITICS

Some years ago Congress
passed a law requiring newSpa-
pers and certain other publications
to publish in their columns, as
well as to make affidavit to be filed
with the Post Office Department.
a statement giving the names OF all
persons owning one per cent or
more Of their capital stock.
This law was designed III order
that the public might be informed
as to the actual ownership OF the
publications, thereby enabling 1t to
attach a proper valuation to the
political or other propaganda con-
tanned in their editorial and news
columns. The intent of Congress
has for the most part been carried
out, in that it has made 1t difficult
for an individual or a group OF
individuals to conceal their selfish
purposes under the guise OF an I'M
partial presentation OF TACT or
opinion designed for the benefit OF
their readers. =
An examination of the files OF
the Southern Planter, would, IN
pur opinion, reveal some highly
interesting facts. While ostensl-
bly, devoted to the farming inter
ests OF the state, yet it has an APP
pearancc Of being more especially
dedicated to the furtherance OF the
political fortunes OF one indivld-
ual. .a..4sA
We find that on April /, 1922,
MIR, 3. Morgan Shepherd made
affidavit before a notary public
that the stockholders OF The
Southern Planter Publishing
Company, owning one per cent or
more OF its capital stock, were
Westmoreland Davis, OF Lees
burg, Va, and &. Morgan Shep-
herd, On January Il, 1922, as
required by the laws of Virginia,
there was filed with the State Cor
poration Commission at Rich
mond, a statement setting forth
that WeStnoreland Davis was
President of The Southern Plan
ter Publishing Company. As but
two persons, Messrs. Davis and
Shepherd, are certified to as own
ing one per cent or more OF the
capital stock, it is apparent that
these two gentlemen control the
publication, and it is generally I'M
derStood that Mr., Davis is the
larger stockholder and controls the
corporation. !
For many years the Southern
Planter was devoted strictly to ag-
riculture and the interests OF the
farming population. 1t did not
originally participate in politics,
but was purely an agricultural
journal, and as such supplied an

PARAGRAPHED

Richmond. Virginia,-The new
Virginia child labor law went
went into effect yesterday, with. pro
visions differing materially from
those of the status formerly in Ell
feet. With the exception of chll-
dren employed in farming, garden
ing or fruit culture, no child under
the age of ID may be employed IN
gainful labor. Between the ages
of IA and 16 children are permitted
to engage in certain occupations
under restrictions, among which is
that they must obtain an employ
ment certificate. Over 10000 of
the various forms of these permits
have been mailed out by the State
Department of Public Instruction
through the State Department OF
Labor. These certificates will be
issued upon application. Severe
penalties for violations of the law
are provided, and employing child
rem contrary to its provisions IS
considered prima faoie evidence of
guilt, both as to the employer and
to the persons responsible for the
care of the child, it is understood.
Lynchburg-The breaking Of the
aoueduct which carries the CheSa-
peake and Ohio canal over the
Blackwater Creek in front of the
Union Passenger Station here, has
put several plants out OF commits
sion because they were depending
on the canal for power, while others
have ben forced to use auxiliary
power. Thousands of fish, mostly
carp and cats, were killed by the
canal being emptied of its water
A bridge force is repairing the
break and it will probably require
all week to restore the water in
the canal.
