Campaigners who take a bracer before be- ginning a speech may have designs on the cock- tall without its influence. The trouble with bracers is thelr uncertain and erratic effect on the mental vision. On one occasion they may bathe the candidate's hopes in cheerful rose color, bring the finish up to the three-quarter pole, as It were, and inspire a disposition to d— the torpedoes and go ahead. A night or two later the same bracer may reveal lurking terrors and gloomy possibilities and suggest the looping of a loop or the employ- ment of a bodyguard. It is the “onsartin” and fractious nature of the beast that makes it dangerous. vote which js not > “T hear that people always open thelr mouths wide whenever they come to see you.

On the sunny ‘wide of thirty, he had the pose and polve of a man of forty. In February, 1900, his father asked him to go to New Orleans, consult with thelr correspondents in that city and endeavor to make arrangements for shipment of an unusually heavy lot of wool, New England mills hi ing sald that a rush of orders would exhaunt thelr raw stocks, Strong presented his lette esche & Garesche and was wel with a cordiality that delighte astonished hir:.

She sank Into a seat and motioned to him to take a place beside her, He obeyed wonderingly. Will you unmask?" she asked, and with the words threw back the hood of her own domino and suffered her half- mask to fall into her lap. Strong gazed on a face strange and wonderfully beutiful. He sat enthralled. seemed to flow wave on wave of mag- netism. Mechanically he removed his mask and she looked at him In turn. Mi From her to him So they gazed Into each other's eyes, al- lent.
