When Warren T. McCray memorizes a speech on subjects nearer than the Dinjdey Tariff bill perhaps he can tell where he stands on the Goodrich tux law.
Dr. McCulloch's slogan. “ A dollar's worth of roads for a dollar’s worth of taxes” is certainly timely in view of the State Highway Commission's extravagance

n > n m i n 1111«>« Mis. Putter was careless. She was careless about her clothes, about her mom y (and incidcnially her husband's), about her liamllaigs, ahou packages, about almost everything. It the truth must be told, h r pathway was tri wn with misplaced article-, of various sizes and descriptions and of greater or le.-s value. In a less ai mirable person this fault might not have been so glaring, hut as she hud no other flaws in her husband's <■><: this particular trait look on gigant c proportions to him. “H’s inexcusable lor a grown womui. to be so heedless,’’ Potter remarked 1 ■■ edly one evening aftei he bad had ! .i jieculiarly exasperating linie putsu ling to it lair a handsome muff which ; k. i x\ ite had carelessly feft on lie* train. I Mrs. Pottei dropped a kiss upon bis ' bald spot. "U bat’s the diff when 1 have a nice old thing ’ ’-e you to run around and , find them for me?” she inquired 1 blit hely. , "You may not always have mo,” reJoim d Poller darkly. “Toots!” replied Mrs. P >Uer, frlv n lously. "I couldn’t lose you.” “Well, i’ni a>raid yoti’ll gt i a severe lesson some day," J’oltvi said sentCP tiously. The annoyance of his hunt for the muff was still rankling to a certain extent several mornings later, whet., along toward noon, after haVing spent most of the morning at home going over some important papers, he paused beside the table in the reception hall and serowled down upon a hand bag which lay there. ‘ I II bet anything she’s left that *2 0 bill in it that I gave her last night," he thought. Then lie tried the Iron', door. “I Tiloeked of course,” he conliinteu his angry musings. He picked up the bug, lu Id it ui eertainly for a moniuit while he glanced about the ball, and then dropped it into the umbrelki stand. After tvbielt he proceeded to Itis offiee with the serene consciousness ,,f having begun the teaching ut a good moral lesson. Several hours later ns she took lown the 'eeeiw:- cf the ttlephom !n answer to its rippling demand for attention, his wife's voice, agitated, came to him. “Oh, George, George, ph isi plea -1 ’ I don't know what to do! The mo.-l awful thing has happened. Oh, please hum I don't know ” “Hurry where?” “Here, home.” ilie fairly shrieked “Don't wait a minute! Don't w lit x second!" Potter hurried out of the offiee, h it in one hand, eoat in the o; her, nr.-l pitiit red madly into a t-xi, Imrlin • half i dollar and a lire of Instructions to the chauffeur. Just what tortures Potter, naturally of i*.n apprehensive turn of n ml, vent thru during that short drive lioim Inonly knows, lie dashed up thi fiord steps of his ran e vv u h his mi mi \vl 'i Iing with vison-t of the awful cantrophies which had, he felt, most ci i tain’y overlakci hi., cheiislied lamily. At the door his wife flung h< t seif into Iiis arms crying hysterically. “Wait just a minute.” she ga ped, “till I tell you i limit It. She's 111 there.” “\\ ho?” queried Potter < xeitedly. “The woman the book agent," his wife tiuiveted. “She says—oh. it’s br-r perfectly terrible, George! She cant' .his morning while 1 was brushing up the ball and she just would come in and then when I wouldn't buy anythin:, she was mud, anyway, and so she h it her bag, and then, after a while si a oaiirv hack and she says that she left it here, and I'm sure I never saw it. about it she's going to get a policcmai., and I didn’t know what on earth to do, so 1 just e lied you up.” “What - what kind of a hag?” Pot fer, stiff with sensation previously unknown to him, put the question wuh chilled lips. ‘‘Oh, just any kind of a bag, a hand bag, I suppo.-i*. What difference does t: make? She says she knows she lell. it here, beemi e she's perfectly sitie site did, ami lie’s been here for an hour, and we've looked’every wheie, and I'm suie I never saw it, and I've been so wreiched and just in anolbei ininule she says she's going for a jio llceman, and I think she’s going to have us all at rested, and 1 don't know what on earth we’ll do." “Nonsense,” said Potter, but he realized that his voice sounded weak and ineffectual. "Are you sure you lookrit everywhere? Did you look in the i Me drawer and- and under the slip and und tinder the hat rack?" Mrs. Potter twit'hed In impatient ass- i t at each suggest ion. “And—and 'he urn brelln stand?" Mrs. I’otiei » shoulders j became rigid for a second. Ti en lei lore herself from his arms am! I .ped hopefully toward the umbrella stand Some time later in reply to Mrs. Patter’s reiterated wonderinga as to how on earth the bag rotild have got into the umbrella si and, be ventured litis craven suggestion. “Perhaps,” lie said, but hi-' eyes did not meet hers with a Isild, Lee stare, “perhaps the baby did it." It whs not until then that the germ »f suspicion entered Mrs. Pol '• ; ’« pi e \ lously trust fill mind. She looked searchingly into her husband's partly averted face. "George Potter,'’ site said, “do you mean to tell me ” “No,” said Potter (irmly, T don't.'' Mrs. Poller slill loses tilings, but Poller has no suggestions :o offer when -he m jiorts these mis! ups - only a patient forbturin| smile.
