Paul Van Buren naked the question, as he leaned over Frank Detnlng’s desk, with sn Insinuating toss of his head toward Helen. Paul was the son of the owner of (he firm that Helen worked for. He had Just returned from a trip around the world ami about all he had ever done In life was to spend Ills father's money. Frank Denting, the head of the de partment In which Helen worked, was voung, a hard worker -but after office hours usually stopped In a little saloon near the office, with some of his ac quaintance* for a few ''pegs." Frank was usually the last to want to leave the saloon at night. But no matter how late the evenings lasted. Frank was usually in the office on the stroke of the clock, sometimes with otilv one hour's sleep But lie was so big and at present healthy and clear-eyed, you could not tell his often nervous condi tion, unless perchance you noticed closely and saw Ids hand shake a hit unsteadily at times. His friends had often asked him why he didn't cut It out and told him It would ''get him" sooner or later To which he an swered: '•Why should I cut tt out and he miserably lonesome—nowhere to go hut a furnished room and, beside*, fm awfully tired of reading I'm bored to death with the thing* that most peo ple like" Then he would sometimes aa> to himself with a far-away look In his eye: "Maybe I WJI.I. cut it oat some day—ls it isn't too late then." But since Helen had been In the ofllce, Frank's acquaintances had noticed, by degrees, quite change In him. frank JACK'S STRATEGY. Ethel—Oh, Jack be careful tonight.

INDOOR SPORTS would often catch himself looking at Helen, day dreaming, and If one had stood close to lilm, might have heard him mutter: "What a dandy girl!" lie and young Van Buren had been rather chummy formerly. They had been out on many "part lea" together and while Frank detested many things that Paul did. he would pass oyer them tn his happy-go-lucky way. Pntll Paul asked that flippant ques tion about Helen, Frank had never quite realized how much he thought of her. Instead of joking with Paul about it, he bent closer over his desk, and the muscles of his big hands clenched. When Helen Hawthorn's father died she realized that she would have to go out and work for a living to help sup port her mother and little sister. She had a good education. Her father and mother had kept her In school, even when they had hard, hard trouble to figure out where the next month's rent was coming fron After leaving high school she had gone to business col lege and learned stenography. She was now working for a large wholesale firm and was looked upon as the star stenographer of the office force Helen was not only fast at taking dictation and on her machine, but was always the first at the office In the morning, and when there was any extra work to he dong the last to leave it at night. A* Paul continued to talk In his tnsln- I uattng wav about Helen. Frank could stand It no longer and said, "That's a good girl. Paul, and if T were you I'd cut that talk out " "Ho! ho!" said Paul "Pardon me If I stepped on your toes a hit." —H. C. (To be continued.) HE’LL REMEMBER.

THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA. GA. (IV: BILLY PIG’S BRAVERY. Billy Pig was walking down the road one day when he saw on the other side of the road all the Plggie Browns huddled together by the wall. “What is the matter?” asked Billy Pig. “We saw a big dog and we hid so he wouldn't see us,” answered Spotty Brown, who seemed to be braver than his brothers and stood in front of the frightened group. "Afraid of a dog," laughed Billy Pig. "I wouldn’t be afraid Of three dogs if they came right here this minute. “Oh, Billy Pig, what a brave fellow you are," cried all the Plggie Browns, gathering around Billy Pig; “I hope we will be as brave as you when we grow up.” Billy Pig felt very brave as he stood there with all the Piggie Browns ad mlrlnk him, but if he had known that on the other side of the wall Billy Goal had been peeking through, and had heard the boast he had made, he would have run home in a hurry. Billy Goat almost laughed out loud when Billy Pig boasted, but he kept quiet and decided that he would prove to the Plggie Browns just how brave Billy Pig was. He ran to the farmhouse where he i... lived and got Rover, the big dog, to come with him to the wall where Billy Pig was boasting of his bravery to the Piggie Browns. "1 want you to make the very worst growl you can," he told Rover, "and then Jump over the wall right into the midst of them. COTTON, A "SMALL FARMERS’ CROP.” It Is common to associate the term "cotton-planter" with large posses sions, wealth, and prominence. The truth is that the bulk of the cotton crop is raised by men who rent or own c< niparatively few acres, In Teotas, vv here approximately one-third pf the American crop is raised, most of the farmers cultivate less than twenty acres of land. More than 90 per cent of these farmers are whites In Mis sissippi there are 110.440 farms owned or operated by negroes. In the Caro lina;. the vast majority of the farms are small and the farmer is a white man. The old-time planter of lordly domain and feudal retinue is gone There ar» some great plantations re maining. hut most of them are con ducted hv coporatlons The present day 'planter" is not a farmer, but a merchant or financier He owns the lend and rents It to the real farmer, usually for a share of the crop or for a certain sum per acre. The renter hues through him everything tn the form of clothing, food or household or farming supplies. To finance a group of "enters from one season to another requires considerable money The planter necessarily Is a large purchaser of many kinds of goods am) By Tad "Then I will be coming down the road and chase you away. Billy Pig needs a lesson and the Piggie Browns will think I am a brave fellow instead of Billy Pig." Rover was a big shaggy black dog and he could growl like distant thun der, and a few minutes later he gave a fierce growl just as Billy Pig was tell ing the Piggie Browns about how he once scared a bear. Billy Pig began to tremble when he heard a sound like Old Black Wolf, and the little Plggie Browns huddled close to Billy Pig because he was so brave. "Oh, what Is it, Billy Pig?" they asked. “Do you think it could be Old Black Wolf himself? You will save us, won’t you, because you are not afraid of him and let us hide behind you.’” But Billy Pig had no intention of hiding any one. He waited until he heard the growl again, and just as he saw a head come above the wall he turned and ran. The poor little Pig gie Browns were so frightened they could not run, and they huddled to gether, trembling with fright. “What is the matter?” asked Billy Goat, running toward them. "Don’t be afraid; I will protect you.” “Oh, Mr. Billy Goat,” cried the Piggie Browns, running to him, "there Is a dreadful animal on the other side of the fence. We just saw his head, and he growls just like Old Black Wolf. Billy Pig said he was not afraid but he ran away and left us. Oh! save us, please save us;’’ “Of course I will save you. Wait a minute and I will drive away this dreadful creature that Is frightening you.” Billy Goat climl-reff'to the top of the wall and .jj.rfiiped over. Rover, how ever*..h*»B gone, for while he was wlll ■irric to help Billy Goat he was not will ing to let him butt him for the pleas ure of showing how brave he was; and when Billy Goat said he would drive away the dreadful creature, Rover took to his heels and ran across the field toward home. Billy Goat butted the ground and made all the noise he could while the frightened Piggie Browns waited on the other side of the wall, thinking how brave their rescuer was. “Did you kill him?” they asked Billy Goat when he jumped down beside them. “Oh! no, I did not do that,” he re plied.'

THE NEAR-PHILOSOPHER. He likes to give you good advice And says that things will be all right, Although he'll tell you In a trice That his own heart Is far from light. Perhaps he got but little rest And all night tossed from side to side; Terhaps the sorrow in his breast Is due to more than sleep denied. Whate'er the woe that weighs him down, To you he talks of cheerfulness. Although tls true misfortunes frown And still Increasing troubles press.
