CHAPTER XVII

~ the night of the reception jules
4 hands as she dressed were like ice.
~ She was so nervously apprehensive
that she could have screamed aloud, and
even the knowledge that she was to wear
her new green dress, and would doubtless
look as well as any woman present failed to
reaSsure her.
She was tired. All day she had been busy
with the preparations for the evening, but.
as usual it was Claudia who had superin-
tended everything, Claudia who had given
orders to the decorators, sent the servants
running hither and thither while Julie had
lowered around in the background. She was
furious at being so Intellectual, at having
so little confidence. Somehow she felt that
if she had been possessed Of unlimited nerve.
it would not have been so bad. The fact
that she could talk dramatically and eat
properly did not seem as important as the
knowledge that she could not take her prop
er place in her husbands home, and that
sooner or later he would discover what a
mess she was making of things.
Claudia had seen to it, that plenty of her
own friends had been, asked. She did not
intend to have dun time muling about
with the older people, and now as she
emerged from her bath and went about the
exciting process of dressing, she was look
ing forward to the evening with great an
ticipatiOn.
She thought of Julie, and her subtle
mouth curved into a scornful smile Well
at least there should be no scandal Julie
would be properly dressed, and she would
commit no glazing indiscretion but con-
trasted with the social poise of the other
women present she would be a dismal fail
ure, her father would not be proud of his
VIE, the seeds Of discord would be sown
ana all IN all Claudia was rather proud of
herself for what she wanted and what she
was working for, was to get rid of Julie as
eXpedIuously as possible.
The reception was set for nine-thir+v
and for that reason dinner was to be earlier
than usual 40
Just as she was finishing dressing, Mat
thew knocked at jules door, and at her
quick "come in he entered and looked at
her critically. She was wearing the green
dress and it was very becoming to her. 1t
brought out the lovely tints of her hair, and
maze her eyes seem strange and unfathom-
able. Julie had possibilities With GER
tain dash and pOise, she might have been
eXoucaIy lovely. But her timidity made her
seem meek, and it was this quality in her
that Matthew resented most
cam I all right?" she asked anxiously.
He nodded. Yes she did look all right.
This time there was nothing for him to be
was he so unenthusiastc? Why did her
Difference always irritate him? He was
vaguely ashamed of himself and to make
amends he made an effort to be more than
usually agreeable.
~ suppose you are little nervous at
meeting lot of strange people. What you
need is a cocktail Suppose you ring for
some TO be served up here? l could do with
one myself"
At his request. Julie rang the bell, but

when the 1916 presidential election is con-
sidered in connection with the money
pended by the two M. = parties. The Re-
publican national Committee admitted in its
sworn statement to have disbursed $2,212,-
SIS in it's effort to elect Hughes as against
$1,400,000 expended by the Democrats in
Wilson'S successful campaign.
OF course there is no way Of knowing
and there can be no way of knowing, the
exact extent to which the Republican slush
fun9 of 1920 Influenced the result, but it
must be obvious that, given anything like an
equal campaign fund, the Der, ats usually
win.
1t is this realization that is moving the
Democratic national committee in this cam
paign to its insistent appeals for na"N1ial
help. The leaders of the party full we'll I'M
derstand that the outlook for success was
never brighter than it is today, but they
know, too, that unless Democrats throughout
the country bestir themselves to get out
the vote in their respective states and to
help finance the campaign, the Republicans
may by the use of another slush fund de-
prive them of the victory which is right
fully theirs.
1t is gratifying that the Democrats of
Georgia are awakening to the fact victory is
within sight, and that within the last week or
ten days there has been disposition display
ed to help the party along. Funds are alb
solutely essential, and the party managers
are looking to the south to do It's part in
helping to defray the expenses Of the cam
paign. If the south responds as it should
! respond, we confidently believe that the
highly encouraging prospects of victory will
be fully realized by the results following
the election three weeks hence.

MY FAVORITE STORIES
By Irving S. Cobb

Affairs of banks are puzzles to the many,
if not to the great majority. To know the
workings of bank you must either own
one, work in one or have the bundle that
will entitle you to attention.
Mrs. Mary Hennessy, widow OF Malachy
Hennessy, was distressed when she found
that there was any formality about having
her money accepted. friend advised her
to go to one of the greater institutions of
the city. There she repaired, ready to give
the cashier man $4,000 of insurance money
and savings.
The banking official inquired something
about Mrs. Hennessys affairs and then asked
for her signature
What for?" said the caller.
''In case you want to draw any money
out"
81 don't want to draw me money out.
I'm giving it to ye to keep. Amt this a
safe place to be leaving it,"
Certainly, madam, but you may change
your mind about leaving it here"
"Me mind is made up"
After further interchanges it developed
that Mrs Hennessy could not write. Under
pressure, she reluctantly confessed as much
and now she became indignant that there
should be so many bothersome preliminaries
over matter so simple as transferring her
fortune from stocking to strong box
The cashier took a new tack.
''Weu, Mrs. Hennessy," he said, soothing
ly, "now that you have indicated that you
cannot sign a check and that you are not
going to give anybody the power of attorney
we shall have to agree upon pass word.
Whats that?"
why, some phrase or word by which
you can identify yourself in case you want
to make a withdrawal. While 1 know you,
[ might die, or leave here, and somebody
else must know you"
'Ye look healthy, but ye can have yer
own way. Introduce me to some of yer
pals"
"But they might die, too"
isn't it the sickly crowd We are Are We
up late of nights much?"
1t took long time, but the mystery of
this phase of the banking business was
eventually revealed. Mrs Hennessy was
asked to indicate for written record just
what she would say in case she should make
a formal demand.
In the safekeeping of this great institu-
ton the fact is now recorded that if a lady
answering to a given description comes up
to the paying teller's wicket and says, eye
omadhoun, l wants me money" the caller
will be Mrs. Hennessy.
