Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-07-21

SINCE I discovered what a marvellous
cigarette I can make with Prince Albert,
I'm rolling 'em and smoking 'em all day
long. A hand-to-mouth existence that is
all pleasure. I've made cigarettes before,
but never any that tasted like these. Let'
me tell you about them.
Z First you get some Prince Albert and
the rnal<in's papers. You put a pinch in
a paper and roll. The fragrance of the
tobacco speeds-up the rolling process.
You can hardly wait TO taste such to-
bacco. Then you light up and pull that
cool p. A. smoke into your system!
Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-07-21

Mild and mellow as morning in the
tropics. Sweet as maple sugar, with a
sweetness that never clogs. p. "A. is easier
to roll, too. It's crimp-cut and stays put
in the paper. If you've never made them
WITH P. A., it's high time you got started.
Try this better tobacco.
Prince Albert makes a wonderful
cigarette, no doubt about that. And it
is equally enjoyable in a pipe. No bite.
No parch. Nothing but pipe-joy in every
load. If you've always wantedto enjoy a
pipe, but never found the right combina-
tiOn, try P. A. ON my say-so.

if Diane Gray would ever marry. An old
school teacher Of DANES pitied her.
Then Ralph Bennett came to Saran-
ton. He was from Brooklyn, cousin Of
the Delmars Of the bank.
He was a tall, slim, well groomed young
man. Captain Of his own soul. He was
the self-contained kind, who can pack a
new yellow suitcase and leave cities be-
hind, perfectly ready to try smaller, surer
spots. He was a. dapper as should be a
promising young lawyer.
His first day in town acquainted him
with Diane. His roadster needed repairs
and lodgings. In white silk jumper and
white wooden skirt, she was a delightfully."-
unexpected feature in a garage. Nor was
she hard to know. She made out his bill,
and later his receipt, with a pleasant
smile. Correct to the cent was the bill.
By her father and brother Diane was
salaried on commission basis. Hence the
pretty silk jumpers.

lous Ralph that five years ago DANES

IN TWO PARTs-PART ONE

rN THE beginning Saranaton watched
the open display Of old Lothrop's hate
for young Diane Gray with an inter-
est which was touched with discom-
fort. The town had only two thousand
population. Every one knew everybody
venomous as the old mans persistent
feeling toward the girl was disagreeable,
like a family quarrel over Sunday roast
chicken.
Lee had nc business to steal, Of course.
Everybody severely said that. Everybody
began generally to agree, too, that Diane
was a gray eyed little beauty who might
have been suspected Of being the sort to
lead a boy into trouble. Diane leaned
to Jazz records for the home monograph,
and her chestnut head was among the
first in town to be bobbed, shingled,
pineappled, and neck-shaved.
On the other hand, Jesse Lothrop, al
though not a rich man, had enough to
save Lee from consequences, and some
folks held hat he might lave let the
matter slip under the moss Of oblivion
instead Of keeping it alive like a pet
snake.
But he did not do this. Whenever they
met, at church or on the street, he would
fasten his blazing, age-faded black eyes
on the girl. Openly he tried to pour all
his venom and rage nto a glare that
passed him, invariably he would pull out
his clean white handkerchief and blow
his high bridged old nose with so much
fury Of sound that it was like the blast
Of a locomotive.
It got so that whenever the storekeep,
ers on Main street heard that blasty
sound, they knew the two had passed
each other.
"Yahoo-o!" stout-waisted Ed Bail,
would call from the door of his butche,
shop to 'Saih Veskins next door. "OlC

mans hate to hold out" 'Saih would
yawn, coming out with a yard OF dry
goods. mo. Amt natural, somehow.
ANY one heard from Lee lately?" Heard
he was doing pretty good in his Chicago
writes to the old mar often enough"
In the beginning Diane blazed defiance
effectively to meet the hate cast toward
her. That is, as effectively as a plump
bit Of immature girlhood with chestnut
hair and a natural bent toward gtggl1ng,
could defy a powerful-wilIed old man
whose longish gray black hair under his
worn black felt hat would have, a hun
dred years earlier. been called demonish.
Jesse Lothrop was Of the older school
of lawyers and marked by the seedy,
careless insignia. He had worn one knot
ted green taffeta DOW tie for ten years
at least. Diane a a taste for ta1eta,
too. But pink and blue and nearly knee
length.
Lee and Diane had known each other
since the days when pink and blue rib
bons marked their sex. In their teens
they got better acquainted. Diane was a
giggling, registering, up to date-ah! and
perhaps a little morel-leader OF the
young high school crowd. Lee belonged
to the group Of boys who hired hivvers to
take girls riding.
It was laughing, tumbling, shriektng
courtship for the most part.
Saranaton, with pursed lips, was just
beginning to read magazine articles on
the jazzy younger generation, and tc
hope, albeit uneasily, that it had escaped
the fate Of other towns and other young
er generations. Perhaps its climate OF

father gave him a good deal to spend"
But steadily, at meetings, the hate
came from the old faded eyes, like a vim
dictive fire from a well banked CRATE.
An ugly fire. It was exaggerated enmity.
1t was abnormal. Presently people did
not like to see the encounters Of the two
pairs Of eyes; the n old, steady, and
malignant; the other beginning to hold
forced defiance, even theatrical.
BY chance, one night at an entertain
ment in the opera house, Jesse Lothrop's
seat was just behind DANES. He rose,
glared, Stalked grimly out OF the place.
The girl nearest Diane giggled nervously.
The boys looked uncomfortable.
Another time, he entered Ole Burg's
shoe store while Diane was being fitted
with satin pumps. She had a too plump
calf, but a narrow foot, n argued every
three months with Ole because, Il can
wear a four, Ole, if you'd buy the right
styles" Jesse listened a moment, raised
a bony forehnger to engage Ole's atten-
ton. Hereafter I buy my footgear across
the street" And vindictively, grimly
stalked across the way to the poorer
stocked shelves of old Isaac Cohen. Ole
looked down, nom too pleased, at Diane
who had been in his store a full hour.
So the display Of hate became steady
like an unparalleled icy wind, and the
town was impressed in spite Of it's OWL

liquors, cold chicken sandwiches, saxo-
phones, free air, and long distance serv-
ice, do not furnish recreation for young
people without hope Of payment.
Discovery did not mean the worst
catastrophe for the boy. The two uneasy
realtors, newcomers in town, and anxious
not to a~ntagonize old residents, protested
hastily and p%leadingly that there'd be no
prosecution. Goo Lord, mol They'd not

Tight Tipped, the father paid. Sulky
Tipped, scarlet, squirming. Lee admitted
in a mutter that he'd had no sense or he
wouldn't a done 1t. And thereupon
Lee put put a tongue at its future home
and left town on the Number Eight,
which went through Saranaton at three
a. m. He said no good-bys. Just left in
the night.
The next morning the old man began
to WELD the ball that thereafter dangled
at DANES ankles, so that in time she
spiritually hobbled.
Jesse, it proved, was n Of the reticent

inhibited paternal vanity worked like

and was easily upset. Her reaction was
