Young Jerry Cowles, slumped in his chair, looked moodily up at his father towering over him. "Harsh words, dad!" he said soberly. "Tha may be," growled his parent, "but I mean them, nevertheless.

What you need is a wife and a home o give you a sense of responsibility. Only, mind you, I have no use for the sort of girl you seem to fancy. Surely, somewhere, there's a girl who isn't all speed fiend, jazz, cigarette devotee, fashion plate " Jerry winced. Was his father vis ualizing Becky Lenox, to whom at leas some of those terms applied? Becky Lenox, with whom he was frightfully smitten. about the intended deception of his father. Once married o Becky, his father would surely capitulate to her charms and forgive he trick played upon him. "If father approves or your sister, we'll elope. How about it, dear?" And Becky whispered "Yes," as would haae most any girl held close in the arms of- a nice youth like Jer ry. With characteristic energy, Jerry put in motion at once the wheels of his plan. Told his father he was en gaged to one of the Ledoux twins and invited him to supper with them to Lord, Jerry, when I was ! meet her. Sure he'd be surprised at he paused in exaspe- i the sort of a girl she was. ' Bess, under heaven knows what in ducements from Becky, had agreed to help matters along, and did her best to be entertaining. Ably she denounced the evils of modern exis tence, punctuating her remarks with pertinent allusions to ancient civili zations, theories of Kant and slum conditions abroad. Jerrv's fathpr sat as one absorbed, and when Jerrv iiuiu,j u uer away to a pray down in the village he gazed after them with an expression in his eyes which would vaguely have bothered Jerry. It was late that evening when Jer ry figuratively, mopping hi brow, deposited his companion at the door of the Lenox home. He was anxious to get back to his father and learn the verdict. , . But as he turned away the door Hot Propaganda. Augusta Chronicle) A Coweta farmer makes the sug gestion that each farmer shall haise one hog to the plow for the payment of taxes, because cotton can no longer be depended upon for bring ing the necessary cash. "Some of our farmers," says The Sandersville Progress, "are not only raising one hog to the plow, but quite a number of them, and they have found that by, starting with the improved breeds they can make more clear money raising hogs than they could culti vating cotton under the most favor able conditions."

DURHAM-CHAPEL HILL ROAD IS XEARIXG COMPLETION Expected To Be Completed Next Month. Unless the mortality reckonings are wrong most of us now living in Durham will be here to take part in the celebration of the completion of the Durham-Chapel Hill Boulevard some time next month. If the plans mature the highway will be something more than a thoroughfare. It will be beautiful in a way that will be restful to the eye. No road can be long or weari some that is shaded by trees that have been selected for a purpose. The width of the highway will be sixty feet, electrically lighted and with a water system that will be sat isfying. Durham Sun.

I've had nothing to do but think how we weren't being fair to your father, and he is just right about not wanting you to marry a flyaway creature like me and " I'm sick of this jazzy life anyhow. I'm going to settle down and oh, you didn't turn around and fall in love with Bess?" "Why my little sweetheart!" Jer ry drew her close. "Your sister is a fine girl and all that, but as for lov ing her instead of you: as for father we'll tell him all about it and take the consequences ! But when Jerry reached home he got the surprise- of his life. "Jerry, my boy," said his father, "I take back air I said about the crowd you travel with."

I'm that anxious to have you make a success of your life!" Jerry rose impulsively. "I I thanks dad," he said. "I'll think it over." But as he turned away to dress for the Lenox dance at he Lawn Club his heart was heavy within film. Becky was a little peach, but never in all the world would she meet his fath er's old-fashioned requirements. Yes, dad belonged to a bygone gene ration to whom a love for the pre vailing style of dancing spelled no less than total moral depravity and for whom the slightest hint of arti ficialty in a girl's complexion utterly dimmed, and damned, whatever else of beauty she possessed. It was during he intermission on the cool, darkened veranda that Jer ry poured out his woes to the spark ling, daringly dressed piece of feniin ty that was Becky. And he used his predicament as an excuse for letting Becky know he loved her. "You see, dear," he wound up ear nestly, "I wouldn't speak before be cause I had nothing to offer you. And now, why. I'm afraid just because' you're so gloriously up to dtae and oh, snappy and full of pet that dad won't see you're he real thing and the only thing for me!

A Grateful Letter. It is in trying conditions like that related below by Mrs. Geo. L. North of Naples, N. Y. that proves the worth of Chamberlain's Colic and Dirljoea Remedy. "Two years ago last summer" she says "our little boy had dysentery. At that time we were living in the country eight miles from a doctor. Our son was taken ill suddenly and was about the sickest child I ever saw. He was in terrible pain all the, time and passed from one convulsion into another. I sent my husband for the doctor and after he was gone thought of a bot tle of Chamberlain's Colic and Diar rhoea Remedy in the cupboard. I gave him some orf it and he began to Improve at once. By the time the doctor arrived he was out of danger." BETTER DEAD Life is a burden when the body is racked with pain. Everything worries and the victim becomes despondent and downhearted.
