What's this I see in the Blade about you and Molly?” “It’s a mistake,” said Bert When he returned from the tele- phone, Molly dropped six diamond rings into his hand. “Don't any of them fit?” he asked regretfully. “Go home,” him. Bert tried for a solid hour to slip the largest of the diamonds on her finger, but was giving up in despair when Fern came running she haughtily advised in with the home edition of the| Blade. The picture of Molly was the| same as the one in the noon issue. but, from the panel formerly oc cupied by Hert, gloomed the funere. al features of Sledge, and the three. | column announcement had spread until it now covered the front page, at the top of which ran an intensely black line declaring that Sledge de- nied Molly's engagement to Bert. Molly grabbed all six rings, and put them on her fingers. “T'm part of the deal, Bert! she exclaimed, “No, you can’t kiss me!” Glider left Molly in a high state | of elation because Molly was now and soul with him tn project of fooling Sledge. “T'll bring you his goat at the the} political history which I will pass over to the Blade, and Willie Wal- ters will attend to the rest.” Bert, planning big things in the ay of revenge upon Sledge, rode wntown, and swaggered into the! mmercial Club, where Dicky Rey |nolds and Wee Willie Walters were finishing a three-hour fight at bil ards. At two o'clock Bert was circum- spect enough to acknowledge that this was the saddest night of his Mfe. At two-thirty, he was led to confess that he still had bopes. At three o'clock he was promising invitations to the great event, which, tho deferred, must certainly | transpire, in spite of Ben Sledge. As this interesting stage of his party occurred in the Occident sa- Jloon, several of sert’s friends! warned him that he was talking} | too much, but Bert protested that he was a free-born American cit!- ren. The yellow-haired bartender o: the Occident, who carried Sledge's stetn of beer in to him next morn- ing, laughed as he set it down. “Bert had a@ fine dill on last nigbt,” he observed. “Celebrating,” Blondy went on “Think I'll have to enftch on him a little, Chief He's passing you a double X.” w'" protested Sledge. right, maybe you know,” in- sisted Blondy. “Just the same, he claims the girl's wearing the ring.

The Society of Politics The governor's ball being consid- ered by common consent the first social gun of the season, everybody who was anybody made it a point to be there and compare artillery. Molly Marley, in the first breath- ing moment after the grand circle of tntroductions, led Fern about the stately modern mansion with an air of proprietorship, for this was her second visit, and she displayed with glee the conservatory foun tains, the marble swimming pool, the pipe organ, the outdoor sleeping rooms, and the sunken gardens, “It's a dream,” declared Fern, with awed enthusiasm. “Wouldn't you like to own « wonderful place Mike this, Molly?” “It would be nice,” Molly of mitted. The girls were having the time of their lives at the party. Molly, always @ favorite, danced every dance, and her guest was accorded hardly less attention.

His hundred and seventy-five thou sand dollars’ worth of street rail- way stock had been increased to two hundred and sixty-two thow sand five hundred. He was to have eighty-seven thousand five hundred | dollars cash out of the undivided surplus of the old company. “The street railway company has always made money, and the city needs additional transportation facilities.
