And Sam left the room in fat, . Ting anger. b.sle entering, fell into the conversa with the three. Wallace told Josie hat after he had gone over the matter xvltli Jackson he himself had become thor ighly eonvtnced that the best thing and • . only thing for Broadway to do was hold to the plant and fight it out. After Clara had rejoined her mother in works, Wallace talked frankly with . “bandy man” of the Jones family. A proposition that will show a profit '. ,1* this did last year,” he said, “with any advertising, is wonderful. I know what I'm talking about. I'm with' the biggest advertising firm in New York city.” Josie sighed as she went on: But we couldn't afford to advertise except in a small way, and the big firms wouldn’t handle a petty contract.” “Why didn’t you try the Empire peo ple?” "We did. They refused to handle us at all. They do most of the Consolidated work. I fancy that’s the reason." "Oh, no; we don’t make that kind of agreements,’’ answered Wallace promptly. No corporation dictates to us. The Em l ire’s my firm. My father is the pres ident.” Josie got for him her correspondence with the Empire firm. It was as she had -ii. Wallace asked permission to use the Jones factory telephone, and put in a call for his father, Grover Wallace, at l is downtown New York office. Surrounded by the happy and proud Spotswoods. Broadway Jones, his chest entered the office, preening himself after the fashion of the most successful campaign orator who has just made a bit. For in his own mind proadway did not know himself. The judge slapped him on the back. "My boy,” he said, “IT'S the greatest day this town's ever seen.” SOME PRAISE. "Oh, 1 don't know,” said Broadway, in feigned modesty, “I just told them—” Mrs. Spotswood broke in with: BETTER THAN SPANKING. Spanking does not cure children of bed-wetting. There is a constitutional cause for this trouble. Mrs. M. Sum mers, Box W, Notre' Dame, Ind., will send free to any mother her successful home treatment, with full instructions.

There was no scorn for him there, but the earnestly sweet expression of that young woman made him feel of a sudden that he was rather “small potatoes"—a Jonesville term. "Mr. Wallace, you really should have heard Broadway's speech.” said Mrs. Spotswood, “I heard it last night," put in Wallace, dryly. Mrs. Spotswood and Clara took their leave. They had to "go ,l< wn to Main street” and do some "shopping.” But be fore they went, Wallace and Clara ex changed sheep's eyes, and Mrs. Spots wood had invited Broadway, Wallace and Josie to dinner that night. What do you like with your supper.” she went on, forgetting that a moment before She had called the evening meal "dinner,” "tea or coffee?” ‘Lemonade.” saill Broadway, thinking of the bit of liquor she had added on the previous night. i 111 make it myself," she. promised, with a smile. The judge had thoughts of going with the women of his family, but Wallace and Jackson persuaded him to stay for the. promised and expected visit of Pem broke. They thought that they might need a lawyer when the trust magnate beard that they’ would refuse his offer of $1,500,000 for the Jones business. A “HOODOO” DESK. As it lacked but a few moments of 11, the hour at which Pembroke was to come, the men ehatted together while Josie went back to her desk and looked over some correspondence there. "The old gentleman'had pretty good of fices "here,” said Jackson. "Yes.' answered the judjt. "seems rather strange not to see him sitting at that desk there. First, old Oscar Jones sat there. an,i he died: then John sat there, and he died: and then Andrew sat there, and he died, and- and—now-*” But the judge was not permitted to finish by Jackson, who had been seated at the desk of his forebears. He sprang to his feet. "That's the last time i'll ever sit there," j announced Jackson. While he was on his feet moving his chair a little way off from fjie ill-omened desk, Sammy came in. “Mr. Pembroke and Mr. Leary' to see Mr. Jones." announced Sam,' in the care ful. real-office-boy manner he could adopt when he chose. “Tell them to come right in,” ordered Jones. “Judge," asked Wallace, "did you ever see a man refuse to take fifteen hundred thousand dollars?” / "Not yqt,” said the judge. “Well, watch the professor." said Wal lace, adding a moment later to Jones: "Sit at the desk and look business-like.” Broadway laughed shortly. "In that chair?” he exclaimed. "Not after what he said.” Josie came up to Jackson. "Shall 1 go?" she asked. In a tone she. tried to make appear merely that' of the secretary, the stenographer, the employee to the enjnloyer. Broadway was entirely alive to his op portunity’. This girl should see how en tirely master Broadway Jones was of the situation. For to Broadway nothing ap pealed more at the present moment than showing this young woman that he was not a wastrel, and also he*hoped that she would see that he was not acting solely from a desire to pose. He was ashamed of the old self, though not yet completely in the self. character that she or he had evolved out of the old Broadway Jones. Perhaps Broadway was not yet the altru ist he thought himself, but he was on the way. Looking at the charming face, the fair hair and the blue-blue eyes—there was no gray' in them now—Jackson an swered the girl’s question as to her re maining. Should she go? "Not for all the world,” he Said, softly. Then he stood behind the desk of his ancestors, thrust one hand into his bosom and, with a grin, muttered: “Trot on your victim." BROADWAY TURNS DOWN THE TRUST. Followed by his stenographer. Pem broke strode rapidly into the room. He greeted each pleasantly by name, calling Wallace "Wilson.” Broadway pushed for ward the chair concerning which the judge had made his remarks of the suc cession of deaths and with his hand in vited the trust vice president to sit down. Pembroke, however, preferred to stand. The Consolidated official introduced his stenographer as Mr. Leary and then di rected the latter to sit in a corner and take the conversation. Up to this time Broadway had been chiefly celebrated for his “dinners with a punch." Today fie began to develop that business punch which was afterward to win a fame equal to the former name he 1 had made. “Take the entire conversation. John," Pembroke had said. Broadway walked to a door leading into an outer office and beckoned to a young man he saw sitting there. "Take this entire conversation. Henry," he directed in his turn. "Are we to talk In the presence of all here?” demanded Pembroke, slightly warm at Broadway's prompt response to his own move. Jackson replied, that he was satisfied if Pembroke was.

"1 love the tarn," she announced to a driiJping assembl.v of rubb r-coated ami goloshed people, and then she blushed | quickly and prettily, because we alii looked so glum. “I have been riding horseback in it all I the morning." she said, trying to evoke I some enthtisiasni. No one said any- ' thing, and then she blushed again, this j time to a deep crimson. "Miss Davis, I’ve always been inti r-j ested in people who blush. Do you | know that j’ou are blushing, and if you! do. why are you? We're not alarming. I though we are dripping." inquired the | interviewer, bent on getting informa- i tion for the countless young girls who ask how to cease from blushing and be at rest from embarrassment. "I never knew that I blushed until just ’recently.” said Miss Davis, and 'this time the color that had ebbed to a soft pink flamed back into her cheeks like a Killarney rose. >■ “I think it was really cruel of the people to call my attention to it, for, while I must have blushed all my life, as long as I don’t think about It, it real ly doesn't matter, does it? "I sympathize flow with girls who are teased about blushing by their family and friends, for litre's nothing quite so distressing as to feel that you are rush ing a signal of embarrassment to your cheeks' when you’re not embarrassed at all.

For the rest she is a tail and graceful girl, with big blue eyes and a lovely round throat, which shows that white skin in all its purity. "It’s queer how few people love the rain." said Miss Davis as she settled herself comfortably, threw back her big mackintosh, and looked at us under the rim of a smart little taffeta hat.
