“There are two letters on the par-
lor table,” Lulu answered. To Ina
she added: “Let's go in the parlor.”
Dwight lighted the gas. “Better turn
down the gas jest a little,” said he,
tirelessly.
Lulu handed him the two letters.
He saw Ninian’s writing and looked
up, said “A-ha!” and held it while he
leisurely read the advertisement of
dental furniture, his Ina reading over
his shoulder. “A-ha!” he said again,
and with designed deliberation turned
to Ninian’s letter. “An epistle from
my dear brother Ninian.” The words
failed, as he saw the unsealed flap.
“You opened the letter?” he inquired
incredulously. Fortunately he had no
climaxes of furious calm for high

came in a tone of no deeper horror
than “You picked the flower”—once
put to Lulu.
She said nothing. As it is impossible
to continue looking indignantly at
some one who is not looking at you,
Dwight turned to Ina, who was horror
and sympathy, a nice half and half.
“your sister has been opening my
mail,” he said.
“But, Dwight, if it’s from Ninian
”
“It is my mail,” he reminded her,
“Hhe had asked me if she might open
jt. Of course I told her no.”
“Well,” said Tna practically, “what
does he say?”
“I shall open the letter in my own
time, My present concern is this dis-
recard of my wishes, Why did you do

Tulu smiled faintly and shook her
head.
“Dwight,” sald Ina, reasonably,
“she knows what’s in it and we don’t.
Hurry up.” tne Augie
“She is,” said Dwight, after a
pause, “an ungrateful woman.”
He opened the letter, saw the clip-
ping, the avowal, with its facts.
~ “A-ha 1" sald he. “So after having
“heen absent with my brother for a
month, ou find that you were not
sparred tohim.” Sel me.

Dwight laughed.

For Congress, Elisha K. Kane.
Up to You.
This advertisement closes my cam-
paign. All the money which I can af-
ford has been spent on the circular
letter which I am mailing to your
homes and on these newspaper arti-
cles for which I pay direct advertis-
ing rates. Not a dollar pays for per-
sonal work. Not a single promise or
pledge has been made to any person,
corporation, organization or interest
except as shown in that letter, the
photo card and these advertisements.
I haven't even delivered a single
speech. (Yet all who know about me
are aware that I can speak effectively
and to the point. My father, General
Kane, taught me to “think on my
feet.”) I want to be sure myself, and
to make you sure, of just what you
are getting when you vote for me.
You have a right to my whole-hearted
service. I propose to show myself
worthy of seven terms in Congress.
Then, like my mother’s father, Wil-
liam Wood, I can retire at the age of
80. Thus I can impartially serve the
ing “Cameron county’s turn.” And
my fellow Congressmen dare assign
me to important committees without
fear that I must quit soon after I have
learned the work. On the ballot, my
name will be marked Prohibition only.
I do not claim to be a Socialist, Dem-
ocrat or Republican also. I shall be
elected by votes of ten times more
Republicans, Democrats and Socialists
than the entire enrollment of my own
party. I'll remember that fact. While
Harding remains President, my dis-
position will be to make his adminis-
tration successful, even though, to do
so, I must tone down extreme meas-
ures. I hope to find the broad-minded
William Jennings Bryan representing
Florida in the Senate, and introducing
measures which I can support. And,
if Meyer London, the Socialist, in
Congress offers measures inspired by
love for the poor instead of hatred
of the rich, I'll try to blend such
measures to reasonable practicality.
Party quarreling must stop and public
business prosper.
I have published some interesting
original ideas. Hope you liked them.
My time in Congress will be princi-
pally taken up with work on the usu-
al lines. Tariff, banking, railroad
regulation, domestic and foreign trade
must be attended to. I'll try to avoid
unnecessary changes.
Concluding, I want to thank the
newspapers for not saying a word
against me. I had not asked it of
them. I thank also my competitors,
Swoope and Snyder, for not having
uttered one published word which
would hurt my feelings. When I am
in Congress, their suggestions will re-
ceive the friendliest welcome.
ford Star Tuesday afternoon is un-
true in practically every particular.
My letter was mailed to forty-five
thousand voters without knowing their
party. Except one hundred dollars
from Davis McCalmont no one but my
wife has contributed one cent to my
campaign. My influence in past has
secured prohibition endorsement and
thus elected dry Republicans as often
as dry Democrats.

56,000 tons of grain of the prssent
