ATLANTA, Oct. 3'l.—The mem
bership campaign of the Georgia
division of the American Cotton As
sociation is making fine headway, ac
cording to announcement made to
day at the state headquarters at the
capitol.
“Already we have hundreds of
members signed up, and paid up, and
every mail is bringing in new re
ports,” said Major D. F. McClatchey,
state campaign director; “Every
county in the state will organize in
good shape. This same campaign is
being put on in every cotton pro
ducing state. The result will be that
the cotton farmers through their or
ganization can say just what shall be
the price of their staple.”
The passage by congress some
weeks ago of a bill permitting banks
to loan 25 per cent of their capital
and surplus to one customer on ware
house receipts for cotton stored in
warehouses under either state or fed
eral control, and which was signed
by President Wilson October 22, is
regarded as a great victory for the
American Cotton Association by offi
cers of the latter, as the association
first suggested the legislation and
urged its passage. National banks
are this week being notified of the
President’s approval of the new law.
This change in the national bank
ing act, which was steered through
the senate by United States Senator
Hoke Smith, will prove, it is stated,
the most beneficial piece of legisla
tion to the South that has been put
on the statute books in the last quar
ter of a century Most important of
all, the result of this new legislation
will save millions upon millions to
the South. The matter of distress
cotton, that is cotton thrown upon
the depressed market regardless of
price because the holders cannot get
it financed will be largely removed.

BARRETT EDMONDS CALLS AND
TALKS OF ROSE KEMP.
CHAPTER XCIII.
Everett was strangely quiet all the
way home from the theater. Some 1 !
way, I felt sorry for him. He wasn’t
to blame for being old,' if he were to
blame for marrying me. Finally 1I
stole my hand into his, and his closed
around it in a strong warm clasp.
“Am I so horribly old, Sandra?”
His question was asked in a whimsi
cal manner, but I knew he had been
hurt.
“I never think of you being old
except when you are stern and cross j
with me; or when you treat me like
a child. Then I think of you as old- ■
er, but never at any other time.”
“I suppose you are referring to my
insistence tjtfat. Miss Lanq remain
with us? Oh, Sandra, when will you
learn! I cannot, for the sake of hu
moring your likes and dislikes .allow
the boy to suffer. What do you know
of taking care o fa baby—or chil
dren’s diseases—of what to do for
him when he is fretful? I don’t'
want you to lose your looks by be-!
ng deprived of sleep. And until he !
is older we cannot trust him with :
some young thing simply because :
it would please you better to have I
her around, than to have a compe- I
tent, settled woman like Miss Lane.
When he is older we can perhaps
have one of the trained nurses for .
children. Until then we must have .
Miss Lane, or someone like her.” ’
I said no more just then. He had
spoken kindly. I had noticed before
that whenever anyone spoke of Leola
or anything he had done (like marry-
ing me when I was so young), he | <
was always rather obviously kind. I , ’
sometimes wondered if he felt sort ;
of guilty.
The next day Mrs. Barton called.
“I heard you were at the theater, |
last night, so felt I might run in and !
see that baby I hear so much about.’’ j
“Indeed you may!” I replied. All i <
feeling of jealously had left me since | <
Irma Barton had told me she was to 1
be married, and we had been friend- ■ ‘
ly. We never would be intimate. |
I sent Hetty for the baby.
“Tell Miss Lane a friend of Mr. | <
Graham’s has called, and wishes to 1
see Junior,” I explained. I half fear- ; .
ed she might tefuse to allow him to
be disturbed. She often had, when i
he was asleep, or feeding. !
Irma Barton looked keenly at me. ’
“Nurses are awful autocrats aren’t
they?” she asked. “But it makes a ,
perfect slave of a woman not to have ;
a good one, one who understands ]
children.” It was one of her un
canny speeches. It seemed always
she could read my thought...
“Miss Lane is very competent, the '
doctors says,” I said demurely, then j
as I caught the twinkle in her eye, i
wejboth laughed.
“It’s no use, Mrs. Graham, you i
don’t like her, and hate to have her ,
bossing your baby—usurping your I
rights. But be glad.you have some-!
one to relieve you of responsibility I
while he is so young. Oh—what a j
darling!” she broke off as Hetty
came in with the baby. “Ok, you
precious angel!’-’ and for the remain
der of her visit her attention was all
given to Junior. As she gave him to
me, saying she must go, she remark
ed: “I expect that husband of yours
is at last satisfied. I know he has i

always longed for a son.”
“Yes, I think he is,’’ I respond
ed gravely. But she was hurrying
out and didn’t seem to notice. I was
ready to cry, but had no time be
cause Barret Edmonds came in right
away.
“Have you heard from Rose late
ly?” he asked after he' too had ad
mired the baby, before I sent him
back to Miss Lane.
“Yes. I had a letter the other day.
Why?”
“Nothing much. But I have just
been to Chicago. Kemp is up to his
old tricks. I hope it is nothing more
serious. But his name is being link
ed with that of a wealthy widow in a
way that looks bad for Rose. Poor
girl, why in the world did she run
off with that lady-killer?”
“She was absolutely infatuated,
Barret. I do hope things aren’t as
bad as you think. It would be terri
ble for her if he should leave her.
Did you see her?’’
“Yes, but she didn't see me. I
passed her in the street. She was
with him, and had been crying. She
has gone off terribly in her looks.
She looks ten years older. I should
have stopped and spoken, but they
seemed to be having a heated discus
sion over something, so I passed on.’’
“I used to build air castles about
you and Rose,” I told him.

GOOD MEDICINE”
Says Rock City, Ala. Santliaan, Altai
Having Given It ConsolentioßS Trial.
Ziron is a new scientific combination of
pure, inorganic, official, U. S. Pharmaco
peia iron, with the hypophosphitesof lime
and soda and other valuable tonic ingred
ients, recommended by the best medical
authorities in the treatment of anemic
conditions.
Ziron helps to put iron into your blood
and this helps to build strength for you,
when you are pale, weak, nervous, de
pressed.
Read what Mr. Sidney Fry, of Rock
City, Ala., says, and then try Ziron. He
makes the following statement:
“Something over a week ago I used
Ziron for the first time. I was troubled
with indigestion and had a spell of weak
ness. Ziron helped both troubles. I felt
stronger and my stomach quit hurting. 1
really feel that Ziron is a good medicine.
It surely helped me.’’
Your druggist will sell you Ziron on a
guarantee that if the first bottle does not
benefit you, he will refund the money you
paid him.
