BARBARA IS WORRIED OVER NELL.
CHAPTER XLVII.
At last I imagined I knew the cause
for the intimacy between Neil and
Blanche Orton But how did it start
in the first place? How did he come
to talk of business matters to another
woman, and absolutely refuse to dis
cuss them with me?
It is a terrible feeling to ask one
self questions of this sort; to ask them
over and over and yet find no answer.
But one possible explanation came to
me __that we were living far beyond
our means. If not, why rad it been nec
essary for anyone to help Neil, even if
Scott had threatened him? If we could
afford to do the things we did, live in
the manner in which we did, surely
Neil must be rich? Rich enough to
take up even the large block of stock
owned by Scott.
I wondered why Scott had threaten
ed Neil; what made :t possible for him
to do so. Had I known that the stock
Neil had sold him was what he, Scott,
called “phoney stock,” and that he
had insisted upon having his money at
once, I might have understood many
other things, at this time. But that
Neil would sell stock that was worth
less, knowing that it was, would have
not only seemed impossible, but ridic
ulous to me.
You see, T knew absolutely nothing
of business of any kind. Neil earned
the money, gave it to me, and I spent it
as I pleased. But I have since learn
ed that one may be quite a goad busi
ness man or woman and still not un
derstand the devious ways of many
promoters; especially if they are pro
moting schemes based so far away that
purchasers of stock must take their
word for their value, reinforced by an
elaborately printed prospectus, in- .
stead of investigating the property for
themselves.
I decided that Scott had “cold feet,”
as Neil had sa’d. and wanted his money
back, that he had threatened to sue
Neil if he didn't return it. That he
had to have some other reason to
bring suit aside from the fact that he
had changed his mind, never occurred
to me.
I had an almost insane desire to
run away; away from my thoughtsand
everything. It may seem strange to
some women, that I was not satisfied
to let Neil run things, and not worry
OLD AGE STARTS
WITH YOUR KIDNEYS
Science says that old age begins with
weakened kidneys and digestive organs.
This being true, it is easy to believe
that by keeping the kidneys and diges
tive organs cleansed and in proper work
ing order old age can be deferred and
life prolonged far beyond that enjoyed
by the average person.

weaknesses and disability due to advanc
ing years. It is a standard old-time

you would a pill, with a swallow of

because I did not know the details.
But there had been many little things
in my life with him to make me uneasy.
Yet often I took myself to task for
my anxiety. Neil was so vigorous, so
alive, so strong-willed. It seemed im
possible that life could play any tricks
with him. Had he been a weakling, it
would have been impossible for me to
have stood for so long the half-doubts
which had been mine almost since we
had married. But he was so strong,
so masterful, that one could not vision
him in trouble or not dominating any
situation,
Neil was the most convincing talker
I ever heard. It wasn’t that he said
so much, it was the way he said it.
i went into my baby—little Robert—
but for the first time he failed to hold
my thoughts from my worry. I played
with him, but in a half-hearted way
that he seemed to realize; for his tiny
fingers pulled at me, and he whined a
little —something very unusual with
him. He had always been a wonder
fully good baby, healthy and happy.
I laid him down, and went into the
library. I wandered about the room
for a few moments, then, noticing that
the cellarette was slightly open, start
ed to close it. Then I looked inside.
I was shocked to see a bottle of whisky
that Neil had opened the night before
nearly half gone! I must speak to
Tonko. He should not touch the cel
larette. Neil must keep it locked here
after.
I turned the key in the lock .and
put it in my pocket. When Neil came
in I would tell him to find a hiding
place for it —that it was a temptation
to leave it in the lock.

ALFALFA FILLS
UNIQUE PLACE,
EXPERT SHOWS
Alfalfa has never been properly ap
preciated by the Southern farmer, ac
cording to a paper recently issued by
C. K. McClelland, agronomist of the
Georgia Experiment Station. Here is
"hat Prof. McClelland says of alfalfa:
‘ Though we have been growing al
falfa for many years at the Georgia
Experiment Station, we have never
pla. cd sufficient emphasis on the value
es the crop to the Southern farmer and
the unique place it this in general
ft ming operations. It is of especial
va.ue in supplying pasture and in sup
plying a good quality roughage at a
time when no other crop can. Being
firmly rooted and ready to start off in
rryid growth with the first warm
growing days of spring, it produces
feet at a time when otaer plants have
not yet started up or are just begin
ning to take on a good gCA.-th.
‘ Small grains that havj been plant
ed on rich soil in very early fall and
n; ve made a heavy pre-wiuter growth
only approach alfalfa in the amount of
feed it will produce in late February
and early March, and, of course, they
di not come up to it in the quality of
the feed. The so-called winter le
gumes, too, burr clover, crimson clo
ver and hairy vetch are all far infe
rior to it at this time of year; like
the small grains, they do well in late
spring, but are not ready to grow off
rapidly in early spring, as is lafalfa.
“Whenever the production of cow
pea hay is light and there promises to
be a shortage of hay in the spring, the
alfalfa can be depended upon for two
or three good cuttings of hay to fill in
the interval until other hay crops can
be grown, or until oats, wheat, or rye
yet large enough to cut for such pur
poses.
“For the grazing of hogs, too, it is
more dependable at this period of the
year than is any other crop. Every
one who raises hogs, and who should
be left out of this list, knows that the
cheapest pork they can make is that
made on pasture and that permanent
pasture of Bermuda and burr clover
and semi-permanent pasture of alfalfa
will contribute greatly to economical
pork production.
“Not only will the alfalfa be the most
dependable pasture crop for late win
ter grazing, but it will often happen
that the alfalfa will fill in at other
times of the year when other crops are
not yet ready for grazing; for in-1
stance after the maturing of the win-!
ter legumes and small grains, there
will be some little time before cow
peas and other grazing crops are
available for use and the alfalfa can
usually be depended upon to fill in the
interval, though during dry summers
it is less dependable.
“The supplying of feed and pasture
during the late winter period is the
unique part it fills, this justifying the
carrying of from one to five acres of
this crop upon every farm of the
South.’’

War-Taught Thrift
is Urged in Georgia
ATLANTA, March 26.—The United
States treasury will continue the sale
of war saving and thrift stamps in or
der to “make war-taught thrift and
the practice of saving, through lend
ing to the government, a permanent
and happy habit of the American peo
ple,” according to the war loan or
ganization of Georgia.
Not only will the educational cam
paign urge the purchase of such
stamps, but it will promote an inten
sive movement to bring about wise
spending, avoidance of waste in gen
eral, the resultant savings to be safe
ly invested.
According to the plan of the Geor
gia organization, the school will begin
on next Monday, or as close as possi
ble to that date, to give systematic in
struction in the class room to show
not only the patriotic service render
ed in the purchase of government
thrift stamps, but the benefit that will
come to the state as a result of the
people’s developing as a permanent
characteristic the habit of thrift.
