"See. Here's where we are" he
explained, putting a forefnger on
the map. "You just follow the main
road from here, going left, until you
come to this road. Wait; I'll mark
it for you. Then you follow the
other road. It's little twisty, but
you can't miss it. Keep right on
the way Pm showing you until you
come to this turn. You keep bearing

The Wreck nodded and the judge
folded the document again.

the road is fair. Just hang onto
that paper and you're all right. If
you want to know which way TO

improved public document, useful
in more ways than one. Amt that
so, Bob?"
But the sheriff was striding down
the trail in the direction of the
horses.

judge, as he shook hands. '"rhe

hands. | reckon it ought to be
easier than rolling flivvers."
Sally and the Wreck were Left
alone. They stood silently until the
last member of the posse disap-
peared. Then the Wreck looked at
her awkwardly, coughed, Redeemed
and kicked at stone that lay in
the trail. Suddenly he walked over
to the fivver and cranked it.

She got in, settled herself in
the seat and stared ahead Of her.
They followed the pike for near
ly an hour, until they came to a road
that crossed it. Not a word was
spoken. He fumbled with the deg
cared document, unfolded it and
found the license uppermost. Hast
lily reversing it, he studied the map.
This is where we turn off," he
said.
Sally merely shrugged.
He turned the fivyer into the new
road and rode on for while.
The Wreck shut off the engine
and jammed the brakes. He began
to gesticulate. He became abruptly
voluble, without any clear idea of
what he was saying.

system has given the women OF the

tablished factories in a number of
protective countries. That admission
was conclusive proof OF the effective
ness of the protective laws in those
countries. for protection secured
factories and payrolls for them.
Recently we had . similar illus
tration in the United States. Op-
ponents OF protection issued q pham-
phlet in which the statement was
made that the women of America
do the buying for the $4,000, 900
families in this country and that
they spend for food. clothing, furn-
ishings. etc.. about $40. 900, 0O0, 00O,-
900 = year. or about $500 per fam
lily. OF course the free trade ad-
vocates were trying to give the
women the impression that under
free trade they would need 10 spend
less.
But that IL not the conclusion
the women will draw. They will re-
nect upon the fact, As told to them
by the free traders. that they have
this enormous sum to spend-and
this is the only country in hte world
where 30 much money per family is
available for spending And that
condition has been reached under a
protective system. The women of
the country will not take kindly to
the suggestion that the tariff sys-
tenn be changed for one that might
greatly reduce the amount they have
to spend.
THE existence Of a low tariff law
from 1913 to 1922 does not alter
the truth of the statement that our
amazing prosperity was developed
under a protective system. From
1860 to 1893 we were continuously
| under a protective system. We had
four years of low tarin and hard
