Which accounts for the lady reformer, the other night. who took the responsibility of condemning to perdition “all who handle tobacco in any shape or form"—silver offering ‘The lady knew all about it: “To- bacco a vice.

Furthermore, “the Bible holds out no hope of salvation for a smoker of the flithy weed.” It might be argued, of course, that the Scriptures show no evidence of ever having heard of | tobacco, butyanyhow* While she was giving her talk an- other woman who had happened in on the meeting accidentally—business— dropped her little quarter in a basiet with no turther knowiedge than cnat any good cause is worth helping along. But after the lady had fin- ished up, the stranger within the gates made the modest statement that she wanted her money back. It was treason and they made the most of it, but the donor stood pat. “You have the right to fight tobac- co, if you wish, but you couldn’t ex- pect me to give a cent to help you down what I uphold.” - g She got her quarter. Then she gave it to a small boy among those pre: ent.

Memory holds for her no fat worms that look like jade until the turkeys gobble them, nor under-jungles of ground leaves that mean a new frock or u very own pig to the child that picks so many for early prizing; of damp days in the barn when tobacco stripping goes on to the rich, un- studied melody of song and laughter of the brown man; of the hauling in them—by ' patient steers to a gray wharf, to wait until a steamer comes along: of the prayerful expectancy of what the crop wiil bring after the in. spectors get through with their prod- dings— She ignores the millions whose lives have depended on such crops since America’s childhood, when .tobacco was colonial currency, and forgets how tobacco planters helped to make the laws of this country and died on land and sea in their defense. Still, she was a nice, earnest wom- an—only when it comes to turning smokers out of heaven it would seem that she might let St. Peter attend to his own affairs. 2 * ko k x HE couldn't have been a pretty girl, and she hasn’t improved with age.

Fa- ther Time has just been giving me the third degree in there, in that chamber of horrors, and I won't get over the shock—ever!” The other woman didn’t ask for de- tails. She waited: “If I had my choice between buying a frock and going to the dentist, give me, the chair every time! But I had to have one, and, of course, I got through all right, thanks to the pa- tient clerk and the fitter who pinned me up for alterations. but—honey—as I stood there with that sun glaring down. and that wall of mirrors showing me up everywhichway—front, back and sideways from top to toe— why.
