GO ON WITH THE STORY.

During the stay of Alice and Dor
othy in her home, Kate discovered a
new Alice.
She seemed not at all tie tawdry,
cheap, tam-o-shantered little watE
who lad entered her sitting room a
few weeks before and shaken the
very foundations of her universe
with her statement about Dan and
her demands.
Dan wasn't mentioned during the
entire visit and Kate was glad.
Whatever the past, she had come to
have kindly feeling for the girl and
a genuine affection for her child.
Dorothy had become fond of Kate
and accepted her very much as a
part of her small life. The first
morning of her stay she looked to
Kate to button the little white frock
that she marched into the sitting
room with and demanded breakfast
before Alice appeared.
Kate loved the child for her very
ordering of her about and on Sun
day evening, when Alice was pre-
pairing to return to the little city
and her work, she suggested that
Dorothy be allowed to remain with
her.
cts hard to let her be away from
me for even one day." smiled Alice,
as she looked at the child. "Do you
want to stay, Dorothy" she asked.
Dorothy nodded and voiced a very
enthusiastic "Yesw
SO it was that when Alice boarded
the train, Dorothy remained on the
platform, clinging to Hates hand.
Alice raised the window while the
train waited at the station. She put
out her hand. Kate took it.
"There is something I'm sorry
for" Alice was leaning on the win
dow sill and speaking in low tone.
81 don't know just how"
The train was moving. Alice
stopped speaking. She waved and
was carried away.
Kate wondered what Alice had
wanted to say. She dismissed the
matter almost Immediately, how
ever, and chatted gaily with Dorothy
as they walked back to the cottage
of Justin Parsons.
81 do like to see you smiling
again. said her father as she en-
tered the gate, and I'm glad you
kept this little lady-she reminds
me just a bit of you when you were
little tad, Katie"

You are a wireless receiving set
responding to vibrations. These
vibrations are of two kinds-physi-
cal (materiaD and psychic.
About Is years ago, the world
was going along calmly, people
rather placid, few of really excit-
ed except when we found money,
narrowly escaped death or uncon-
sciously became attuned to the vi
brations of a soap-box orator or
a mob.
Then a restlessness broke. out
in Buenos Aires, in the form of a
dance called the tango. This dance
spread rapidly all over the world.
1t was, to the public's nerves inter-
nationally, like touching a match
to kerosene.
No one realized it then, but a
great psychic force had begun to
flow through US, working us up to
a half-mad condition of highly
strung nerves that was to find its
climax in the World War.
That psychic current went
through US like a cyclone through
Kansas village. The current
has nearly run its course. 1t is
vanishing in the distance, leaving
US behind-rather burnt out, ex-
hausted, weakened.
Periodically these terrific psv-
chic currents flow through the
worlds people and cause what psy-
chiartrists call mass movements"
or mob exhilaration."
Such a current was the wave of
desire for personal liberty that
started with our Declaration of In
dependence and is not yet at its
height.

hloltlon movement, a psychic
wave, IS sweeping the whole world
In every important country, drink
ers the talking about prohibition,

premonition, sensing of an on
coming invisible force.
When you have a few million
years to spare, try to figure ont

THE CAPPER
PISTOL BILL.

There Is bill now before con-
gress, known as the Capper bill
(senate 4012,) which is a proposed
law to control the sale, possession
and use of pistols and revolvers in
the United States.
The promiscous sale of pistols
can be and should be controlled.
The possession of pistols by crimi-
mails may be hard to stop, but the
Capper bill will help.
1t will also materially lessen the
sale of pisols to boys and other
irresponsible persons.
The Capper bill, it is understood,
has received the endorsement of
hundreds of chiefs Of police. detec-
tlVes and other law-enforcement
officers over the country, and
among other things, it provides
that
None but citizens, personally
known or properly identified to a
licensed dealer in firearms, are
permitted to purchase pistols or re-
VolVers. Each purchase must sign
a record of sale, copy of which
must be filed with the police.
No pistol or revolver may be de-
llvered to the purchaser until the
day after the sale.
owners of such firearms are per-
united to carry them on thei, per-
sons or in a vehicle without a H.
cense from the police.
Dealers are not permitted to dis
play pistols or revolvers. or imi-
tatlons thereof, where they can he

Possession ia pocket frearno

tempting to commit felony, is re-

criminal intent, and is punishable
Oy hVe years extra imprisonment
Heavy penalties are prescribed
for second and third offenders
Fourth offenders may be sentenced
to life Imprisonment.
Manufacturers serial numbers
or other identifying marks on pis-
lois or revolvers must not be al
tered or erased.
Aliens and persons who have
Oeen convicted of felony are NOT
permitted to possess a pistol Or re-
volver.
The object of the bill is to make
1t possible for the law-abidino,
citizen to possess a pistol or re-
Volyer for protection of life and
property and at the same time nro-
vide penalties sufficiently severe
to deter criminals from using such
weapons.

OPTIMISTIC CONCERNING
SOUTH GEORGIA GROWTH.

One of the most conservative
editorial writer's in 5nis country
and one who weighs we'll any state
ment he might make, has this para
sraph in his Albany Herald which
rings true regarding the outlook
in South Georgia. Re says:
"There appears to be no scarcity
of money in the country, and there
is more ready money seeking safe
investment here in Southwest
Georgia than ever before. Time
has been, and not so long ago,
when the man in this section of
the country who wanted to procure
a loan had to beg for it, and if
he required any considerable
amount he had to go away from
home for it. And there he had to
have ample security and favorable
endorsement. 1t is different now.
Ready home money is advertised
by real estate agents and attorneys
at lower rates of interest than ever
before. 1t is material conclusive
evidence of substantial prosperity
and increasing wealth that the
Herald is gratified at being able
to note"
And the same may well be said
regarding conditions and the out
look right here at home. Folks
at home have money to loan and
we opine that they had much rath-
er trust it with the farmer he
knows than to have him go else
where and pay exhorbitant inter-
est. Farm securities are the
safest investments in the world.
