A STORY OF
A GIRL sToDAN
A MYSTERY

There had been a queer atmos-
phere In the store the whole after
noon. / knew that gossip had been
stirring about, but no one said any
thing to me.
About O'Clock l saw Mr.. Robin
son strolling complacently down the
aisle, and my blood boiled as 1
thought of poor Miss CleaVer as [
had found her in the rest room, her
face covered with a cold clammy
sweat. She wasn't a pretty creature.
He probably would have thought she
was not. He was looking for some
thing fresher and more beautiful.
Evidently this man didn't know
that 1 was the girl who had seen
Miss Cleaver in her agony, for he
said to me with an unctuous smile:
IT am afraid. Miss Dean. that you
have not been under the discipline of
the workaday world long enough to
know that all the rules of the store
must be obeyed. I happened to OBJ
serve that you were away at lunch
for almost two hours. II am going
to be lenient with you this time, how
ever, because I think you didn't
know
II returned In time. Mr. Robin
son. I was only gone an hour. But
when I Nent into the woman's room
to hang up my coat I found Miss
Cleaver very i'll. I was afraid she
was dying. and stayed to help. Was
that against the rules of the store?"
1t did my heart good to see that
man crumple.
He grew pale and leaned over the
counter toward me.
"DoTt, please don't tell this to
anyone. 1t would hurt the business
of the store if anyone should hear
the story. There would be all sorts
of gossip going about. I am afraid
that someone would even say that
she had tried to poison herself"
"NVell, didn't she?' I asked tersely
"Of course not, OF course not" an
swered Robinson quickly. Doctor
Flint told me that he thought it was
a kind Of epihptic attack He had no
doubt that she will not recover
"I am glad YOU told me that, Mr..
Robinson, for I thought it was poi
son she had taken. You see, I saw
her. and | picked up bottle on the
floor with this label on it."
Before he could recover from his
establishment thrust the bottle with
the red skull and cross bones on it
into his hands.

Summer Wife

Dear Martha Lee: Is there anything
wife can do to insure herself against
other women getting her husband when
shes away i'll the summer Last summer
| took the children to place in the
Maine woods. We went early and came
home late in the fall. In the meantime
my husband began running around with
some girls. and by the time ] got back |
found he was in love with one OF them
and / had to set to work and break that
up. l did IL. But I'd like to go back
to the same place this summer. 1t was
so ideal, but I'd want to be sure about
my husband. MRS. q. D.
Great Hat! Haven't yau learned
your lesson yet? Ihoyds, Inc, used
to insure love, but 1 don't believe
they do anymore-too risky. There
are loads OF ideal places around
Indiana to summer in for the child
ren's sake, and yet be close enough
to home to keep track Of hubby for
yQNr own sake. By the way, I'd
love 10 know what you did to get
him back! That's the eternal cry
of most Of the women writing in to
mellow can l get him back!'
And II would be pleasant to have
actual facts instead Of theories!

For it isn't human nature TO go
very long without other human
companionship. And most wives
would be surprised to find how
easily they could be supplanted in
their husbands hearts. Many a
young man has wanted to mean I'll
never love any other girl but you
Sally!7 but there's C. limit to human
endurance, and presently some other
fair damsel comes along to storm
the fortress of his ''impenetrable'
heart, and we know before she starts
her campaign that she'll be success

you've seen each other for fifty
weeks, day in and day out, it isn't

ment. Each has a real vacation,
with something different from the
other fellows. and something to
start the marital conversation going
for another fifty weeks. But these
wives who go off to spend a whole
summer are taking chance--some
female of the species is sure to feel

GEORGIA OFFICIAL OFFERS
REWARD FOR MOB LEADER

nounced reward of $500 for the first
member of the masked mob who

day morning and lynched Dave
Wright, held at Douglas, Ga, for the
Staying of Mrs. Zelphia Rolling, two

additional reward of 500 for the ap-
prehension of any other member of

out from the governors Office to Sher-
iff Tanner, of Coffee county, and to

MORE DESTRUCTIVE ADvER-
Using FOR THE SOUTH"

Says the Arkansas Gazette: "The
1926 record of lynchings in the South
now bears another indelible entry,
written there by a band of Georgians
who stormed county jail, seized a
white prisoner, charged with the muir
der of woman, tied him to tree and
riddled his body with bullets The
authorities who failed to protect their
prisoners are, as usual, working to
identity the members Of the mob.
THE effective time to deal with
lynching mob is before, not after, its
lawless work is done. And the sheriff
who resorts to extreme measures, if
necessary, to uphold the courts and
maintain order, can always count on the
backing of public opinion. The South
has suffered too much from these out
bursts OF evil temper by lawless men.

STOREKEEPERS LOSE DREAD

Sales by Telephone Counterfeit Slump
When Weather Keeps Patrons
Indoors

Progressive storekeepers no longer
dread rainy day. THEFT was, not
very far off, when a day with a hard
rain from morning to night meant a
considerable loss to tradesmen, large
or small, but the increasing use of the
telephone is serving largely to coun-
teract the effects of the weather.
In rainy weather, when many Gus
toners are kept indoors, the telephone
rs especially useful The up-to-date
storekeeper does not wait for calls to
come in, but he calls up some of his
customers, particularly when he knows
he has something special to offer that
would be Of interest to them. As a
rule, customers like to feel that the
store they patronize constantly is also
interested in them, and an occasional
telephone call of this sort often sue
ceeds in selling goods which might not
have been brought to the customers
attention had he or she made the call

MAN BURIED ALIVE SAVED BY
AIR PIPE
preston News Service)


New York City, Sept. 10.-Buried in
a huge sand bin for one hour and
thirty-fve minutes Thursday morning,
William Clark, thirty-hve, was saved
by the cleverness of fellow workers
who, while digging for him, inserted a
pipe in the tightly packed sand,
through which Clark was enabled to
breathe.
Clark was at work on the new
Eighth Avenue subway at Central
Park West and 8lst street. His duty
was to control the chute which allows
sand to flow into the concrete mixer
to clog. He climbed in and soon was
buried, his weight carrying him to
the bottom of the pit and the loose
sand packing tightly about and cover
ing him over.
Workmen, realizing his danger, be-
gan hacking at the stout sides Of the
bin, hoping to break it open. For an
hour and fifteen minutes the workmen
dug at the sand, which seemed to
grow deeper, not knowing whether
they were digging for a corpse or
man.
Then their labor was rewarded.
Clarks' head and shoulders appeared
and he was conscious, though care
fully saving his breath. "A barrel was
jammed down over his head and shout
ders to prevent the sand again sliding
and undoing the work Of is fellows
Fifteen minutes later the crew were
able to move the entombed man. BY
this time harness and swing had
been rugged SO that Clark would Be
hoisted out Of the treacherous, cling
ing, sitting sand. He was swung in
