He stared at her Indignantly, his

"Oh, I'm not such fool!" he ex-
claimed. You must think I'm a con-

his heel and started for the door, just
as Claire stepped out of the elevator
and hurried over to him.
Their ride began with ominous sill

Claire's kittenish vivacity. She gurgl-

every other sentence. He glared at
the road smoking furiously. and re-

Claires open bid for his favor annoy

veiled insolence with which she had
ordered Sally about that morning. I'm
sorry she couldn't come with us to-
, day"

refused because she didn't want to
drive with him. He almost laughed in
his delight at that discovery.
And Claire, likewise, was delighted.
He was pleased to know that she could
go with him whenever she liked, she
told herself happily. She had really
made an impression on him, Mr.. Rex
Mallory-Claire Finch Mallory she
could see the name in the society col
ums of the newspapers, could easily
imagine the position that would be
hers as his wife. She let the wings of
desire carry her far into the future.
How'd you like to have dinner with
me at that new road house that's just
opened?" he asked her presently, as
they swung over the brow of a hill

valley. "They tell me it's pretty zippY

THE first of the week." he sug-
gested. You'll have to bring your
chaperone, of course-it would never
do for young girl like you to dine
alone at a place like that with a man"
But my mother wouldn't mind"
protested Claire. She had no desire
to take Sally with her. Really, it
would be all right if l went with you"
mo siree-I think too much of you
to compromise you," he declared, and
Claire, flattered at his thoughtfulness,
replied:
well, of courst it would be best,
perhaps, to take Mrs. Pemberton."
Mallory wanted to pat himself on
the back. Sally's Indifference had
aroused his interest, and he flattered
himself that he had arranged this
meeting very cleverly.
Meanwhile Sally, back at the hotel,
had given up the pretense of writing
letters and settled down to face a new
situation. Petted and favored all her
life, she had never before been treated
as Claire treated her. To submit to
insolence, to take orders, to give up
doing what she wanted to because it
was her duty to do so-this was new
experience for her, and one that she
did not enjoy. Not that she cared

out:

R0BBING PETER TO PAY PAUL.
Perhaps few of the farmers in the

country realize that the twenty mil
lion dollars which the republican
congress so generously voted for the
aid of a comparatively small section
of Russia came out of the pockets
Of the wheat growers, many of whom
are in real need of aid themselves.
In other words, it was appropriated
from the funds of the United States
Grain corporation and not from the
United States treasury, and the
funds of the grain corporation rep
resent profits made off the wheat
growers. These profits amount to
more than thirty million dollars. An
other phase of the matter is the fact
that congress set precedent in this
case, for Chart yof this kind in the
past has been by private subscrip-
ton.
In 1845 the country was so moved
by the distress of Ireland, where the
potato crop had failed under the bur-
den of furnishing the principal sup
port for the eight millions of people
in the island at that time, that mil
lions were raised by private subscrip-
ton, but even then the congress was
not asked to make an appropriation.
In the case of Russia there was
plenty of food in the country, but
communism does not run true to its
name, and the parts of Russia where
food was abundant would not furnish
it to the famine region without a
price, and the price could not be rails
ed by the sufferers. 1t must give

TAKE THE JUDGES
OUT OF POLITICS.

A meeting of the State Democratic
Executive Committee has been called
for February % at Jacksonville and
there will be many important matters
TO consider, despite inference during
the last few years that the state COM
mittee has become impotent adm had
almost wrecked the party during the
Catts-Knott campaign.
But the committee can regulate the
method of holding elections, and can
designate who shall go into the prima-
ries. Under the laws of Florida Cir
cult judges and States attorneys are
not elective offices, but under reso-
luton passed by the State Committee
the judges and states attorneys We're
placed in the primary. Everybody
knows why this was done. 1t was to
take from the then governor the ap-
pointive power, allowing the people to
select the judges. 1t is believed now
that there no longer exists a desire
on the part of anyone to take from
the Governor the prerogative of des-
ignating the judges. Under the reso-
luton passed as an emergency meas
ure by the committee the judges went
into the primary and the Governor
made his appointment in accord with
the vote. He could, however, have
set this aside, and it was thought at
one time that Governor Cats would
do this. 1t is very certain that if the
method of procedure is continued by
the State Committee that Governor
Hardee, being a good Democrat and
always submissive to the will of the
people, would make the appointments
in accordance with the primary. But
this would leave the courts in the
hands of politicians, an admittedly
pernicious system.
