I really think it’s gone by the board.” “All right, thanky’,” said Pole as he - stunned away. He marched straight in the jury room and without rapping opened the door and went in, cloflng the door after him. He found the men Ill discussing the matter and was de- mted to find that the strength of the Xmosition now rested chiefly in Bartell land a few men who seemed afraid to pull away from him. Pole slid up to f Bartel] and said as he drew him to one line, “Say, Mr. Bartell, what on earth have you got agin Alan Bishop?” “Why, nothin’, Pole, as I know of,” aid Bartell rather sheepishly. “Nothin' Is I know of.” “Well, it looks to me like you got a mighty pore way 0’ showin’ good will. Why, he’s the best friend you got, Mr. Bartell, an’ totes more votes in his vest pocket fer you than any man in this county.” .“Huh! You don't say!” grunted Bar- ton in slow surprise. “Well, he never told me about it.” “Beca’se you hain't announced yore- it yet,” said Pole, with a steady eye und a set face. “Why, he said t’other day to several of us at the log rollin’â€" you remember you rid by on yore bay, ladin’ a milk cow by a rope.

He’s got brains, he has.’ ” “You don’t say!” Bartell's beamed, his eye kindled and flashed. “That’s jest what!" thoughtasmucho’ measAlandoeso’ 3703-" “I never knowed he was fer me,” was Bartell’s next tottering step in the right direction. ' “Well, vote fer the right 0’ way, an ’ from Atlanta durin’ sessionallrail.

Put up or shet up.” “I’ll do what I kin," said Bartell. a new light on his face as he turned to the others. “Gentlemen,” he began, “listentomeaminute.

The road’s a settled thing. They say they don’t want no specks, and they ain’t a-goin’ to have ’em. Hooray!” The audience was electrified by the announcement. For an instant there .was a pause of incredulous astonish- ment, and then the floor resounded worn the clatter of feet, and glad shouts filled the air. Alan, his face ablaze with startled triumph, came toward Adele and Mil- ler. “Pole worked the rabbit foot on them back there,” he said. “I don’t know what he did, but he did some- thing.” "He told me he had a card left,” laughed Miller. “I’ll bet he had it up his sleeve. There he is now. Oh. Pole, come here!" The man thus addressed slouched down the aisle to them, his big brown eyes flashing merrily under his heavy brows, his sun browned face dark with the flush of triumph. “Ef you don’t back me in it, I’m a speaking to me,” she said, a catch in Tumut and gone dog,” said Pole to Alan. “All I want you to do is to vote for Bartel] ef‘ you kin possibly swallow the dose.” A light broke on the two men. “I’ll do it if you say so, Pole,” said Alan. “Not only that, but I’ll work for him if you wish it.” Pole looked down and pulled at his heavy mustache. “Well,” he smiled, “I reckon he won't harm us any more in the legislatur‘ than the road ’11 do us good, so you’d better support ’im. down a minute ago, an’ I didn’t have no time to consult you. face}. a bigger lie ’an that to clinch this thing.” .

For a moment they met in a full look into each other‘s eyes. Adele’s voice shook when she replied, “I believe I’m the happiest, proudest ml in all the world.” ‘Then you love me?” “I believe I’ve loved you from the very minute I met you in Atlanta last summer.” Alan saw Dolly looking at him and waving her handkerchief, her face ,warm and flushed. He was tempted to go to her, but she still sat by her father and mother, and that fact checked him. Mrs. Barclay caught his eye and, ris- ing suddenly, came through the crowd to him. She extended her gloved hand. ' “You and Dolly must stop your fool- ishness,” she said. “I've been thinking of a plan to help you two out. If I were you I wouldn't say a word to her now, but next Sunday night come and take her to church'just like you used to. I’ll attend to Colonel Barclay. He is just tickled to death over this thing, and he won’t make any fuss. He is as stubborn as a mule, though, and when 2 he has to give in it’s better not to let 5 him think you are gloating over him. I He won’t bother you any more. I’ll see , to that." Alan thanked her. He was so full of i happiness that he was afraid to trust; his voice to utterance. As Mrs. Bar- clay was going back to her husband and daughter Pole Baker passed. Alan grasped him by the hand. 1 “Say, Pole,” he said. his voice full and quavering, “I want to tell you that I think more of you than I do of any man alive.” “Well, Alan,” said Polo awkwardly, yet with an eye that did not waver, “I kin shore return the compliment. hit it hadn’t been fer you an' yore advice, I'd ’a’ been in hell long ago, an' as it is I feel more like livin’ a straight, honest life than ever I did. You never and! i l me but one thing that I didn’t grant, an’ that was to give up whisky. I don’t know whether I ever will be able to do it or not, but by the great God above I'm goin’ to keep on tryin’, fer I know you want it Jest fer my good. I don’t want a dram today, fer a wonder, an' maybe in time I’ll git over my thirst.” As Alan was about to get into his buggy with his uncle, the colonel and his wife ,andfislughteli- 98.8.8911. With a sheepish look on his face the old man bowed to the two men, but Dolly stopped before Alan and held out her hand. “You were going away without even her voice. “Think of it, today of all days to be treated like that!” “But your mother told me”â€" “Didn’t I tell you she couldn't be re- lied on?” broke in Dolly, with a smile. “I have more influence with papa than she has. I know what she told you. I made her confess it just now. Are you going to town today ?” “Yes," he informed her; “we shall complete the arrangements there.” “Then come right down to see me as soon as you possibly can,” Dolly said. “I’m dying to see you, to talk with you. Oh, Alan, I’m soâ€"so happy!" “So am I,” he told her as he pressed her hand tenderly. “Then I shall see you again today.” “Yes, today sure,” she said, and she moved on. . “She’s all right,” said Abner Daniel the Wild-'Of'oplfi content. “Live always as Alan climbed in the buggy beside him. “She’s all wool an’ a yard wide.” “I reckon you are satisfied with the w “Rm-.5 rmC?-o I ‘0 Z , I 'mamm who Mir-ed pYlVOBKS. owl-1w" House. as claims unit byth 'a'littl'e of this curious concoction into the moisture tray under the egg drawer in the incubator, it will be automatz ically evaporated and diffused by the internal beat. this is not all.
