 The man who descended from it and bore down upon him was not, however, Armitage, but man nearly as brown of hair and eyes and skin. Damn nearly Armit- age" marvelled Mark, whose head vas clearing with most opportune speed
 The young man smiled and his likeness to Armitage proved to be that of type only. The set of Armitage's mouth had always something hard. about it; whereas this cheerful grin radiated a pup py-like conplacence.
 "Oh. I wonder if you're thinking of coming along yet? Armitage thought perhaps you might be. I'm the secretary-Kenneth Poole he left me behind in New York, yknow-I only got back today. Can I find your coat?"
 It was quite evident to Mark that someone, probably McLough- in, had reported him at Brandish Place as being incapable of speech 2r movement, and he took pleas Ire in removing this impression.
 Thanks, I wish you would. I vas half-expecting Armitage to end someone. When you're a ame duck, you see, you take kind lesses like that entirely for grant, d People are so immensely de- ent."

 flash of surprise showed.

 Then he made the mistake of drinking a good deal of : every thing that was pressed upon him; and gradually the flatJery and the laughter and the music and the chatter all merged into an irregu- lar drumming rhythm that was not unpleasant but had a tendency to beat it's way right into his head and interfere with his conversa- tion. There was, however, a cur- ious lucid interval when gaunt grey-haired man stood by his chair and said Ns

 The confusion fell from Marks mind. The two women who hao their arms around his neck screamed together as he wrenchec himself to his feet
 Tt isn't what I'I planned you should look at first. These people just a lot of it-What a pity I'm too drunk to explain"
 Tt is rather. .. Didn't Farrell Armitage speak to me about you?'
 He promised to, sir"
 Well, when you've slept this off, come round and see me. Or not" His eyes had found the erutch-"I'l come round to you He flicked a nod towards the tableful and went.
 The next clear interval showed Mark his own face in a long mir TOT in which the dawn was faintly reflected. He was sitting on a blue sofa in the outer lounge;

People Eager for Harmony.
(Seattle Times.l

Democratic Party control of the Legislature and of all State office warrants the hope of common purpose and cooperation which have been sadly lacking at the State capital for the past eight years Regardless of party affiliations all the people are eager for such harmony in State government as may arise from determination to give good service Governor Martin has sounded keynote for that kind of harmony. It is not joyous note grave, rather than gay-but it is to which hopeful and helpful chorus may readily be atuned
 And it is in spirit of hopefulness corresponding with his own that the people of Washington greet Governor Martin and extend to him, and to those who enter office with him, their best wishes and their earnest prayers for an Administration that will be of benefit to all.

laughed and pushed it into his pocket.
 If you'll jot down your an- swer," Armitage suggested, still in- tent on the fire, 'I1l get it sent off at once.."
 "Oh, but I don't think it really requires an answer" smiled Mark. Its prepaid, I understand" Ar mitage had turned to face him. 'Is it?. Waste of money then. Barbara might know by now that I never answer silly questions. Well I'll turn in, I think, Armitage, and a thousand thanks for rescuing me-"
 But you can't"
 Yes, I can manage perfectly thanks, if Poole will give me an arm. I gather the elevator isn't working yet. Goodnight, and many thanks again"

Elisabeth Marbury.
(New York World Telegram

Energy, versatility and brains, combined in gen. erous quantities and happy proportions, made Elisa beth Marbury a national and even international figure.
 Agent for famous foreign playwrights of an older generation, literary adviser prominent suffragist, war worker, ardent foe of Prohibition, excellent talker and the best of company she had made hosts of friends both sides of the Atlantic before she strode buoyantly into American politics and | to be Democratic National Commtteewoman. | To at-home women her career seemed en- viably full of excitement, variety and color. Yet she held that there is only one real success for woman-to marry happily and have children have never yet seen any eminence woman can reach that excels successful marriage and the bringing into the world family of children" That doubtless sincere. She had too strong la sense of humor to pose Her career was anything but tragic. Yet perhaps it's lveliness, movement and countless friendships instnctively sought Compensation for simpler thing that fate decreed she should miss If so compensation was not skmped.

FALLING FOR FAKE SCHEMES.

Under the above caption the Slaton Texa Slatonte discusses "faking in the advertising tiel for which Texans as well Alaskans seem to fal The experience of the Saton folks is not differer from that of Juneau, and it seems to be commo in all sections of the country.
 The Texas newspaper said
 Never within the recollection of the pres ent generation have as many fake schemes come to light within the last two years. Almost every day papers in some part of the country are called upon to expose new scheme. But a rule, the expose comes after the faker has gathered in the money and hied himself to other territory, where his game is still unknown. He manages to keep one jump ahead of the denouncers.
 This section has in for it's share of schemes and fakers, and it's citizens have contributed their share of coin to the schem- CTS It has never been plain why local citizens will bite at something a home town citizen couldn't sell them in hundred years. 9sss
 Along comes a perfect stranger selling advertising space on a time-card, calendar cook book or some other fake scheme. He sells his space readily in form of adver- Using that usually isn't worth the paper it is printed on pockets the money and is on his way And then, when the advertiser fails to get results-as he does nintey- times out of a hundred-he goes around declaring that advertising doesn't pay" The fact of the matter is such schemes are not legitimate advertising and that is the only kind that ever did or ever will pay
 There is something funny about human nature when it comes to these fake schemes Nobody can understand why merchants and professional men will "fan for them when they wouldn't buy nickefs worth of space if a hometown man was doing the soliciting.
