JOHN SMITH'S THEORY
Bj Frank i ?Ison.
(Copyright, 19I&. uy \V. <;. Chapman )
Ho felt pretty gloomy all the way
down to his office. Ile had begun to
earn enough lncotno tho year before,
as a lawyer lu the little manufactur
ing town, to Justiry him In claiming
Mollie, whom he had loved since he
entered college, au bia wife. But the
struggle waa a hard one, and ho had
only just been able to keep bis home
to?ether.
Then, a month previously, the
Adamson company had Invited several
of tho town lawyers to apply for a
salaried position as adviser. The
choice had reaily narrowed down to
two: himself and Herbert Johnson.
And he knew In his heart that John
son was Blated fe- the position.
If mere learr ; had counted, he
mlKht have got ... But thero were
other qualities. Johnson was a nian
nbout-town, a frequenter of the best
hotel, where he dined and met people.
Hut, most important of all. Johnson
WQ3 acquiring a reputation as a man
who took hard cases. The Adamson
corporation would undoubtedly prefer
a man who was wi'Jing to attempt to
drive through the law, if It could be
done, to a lawyer who had hits, own
ridiculous scruples.
"However," ho said to Mollie, "I be
lieve there Is a good futuro for a law
yer whose honesty will bo so generally
recognized that lt will go far *.oward
winning him every case In which he
appears."
And sho had agreed. But that did
not help him toward tho $2,000 posi
tion with the Adamson corporation.
And that Income, In addition to his
other work, loomed larger and larger
as the days went by.
Then he was Btunncd to receive an
Invitation to call upon the corpora
tion.
In his boBt Bult, which Johnson
would havo scorned to wear, except
for gardening, perhaps, he made his
way to the big factory downtown and
was shown Into the room of the presi
dent, George Adamson, a fussy look
ing old gentleman, who bade him sit
down and examined him with a very
critical gase.
But Mr. Adamson thawed percepti
bly when his visitor answered the
searching questions that he put to
him. There John Smith knew that he
was on safe ground. His credentials
were certainly better than Jo'hnson's.
and Adamson acknowledged himself
as highly pleased.
"Now let tis come to practical de
tails." ho said. "For Instance-an old
Inventor out In Dayton has n patent
that we aro very anxious to secure. It
is an Improved method of manu
facturing gas furnaces, and If we
had lt it would cut the cost of produc
tion 15 per cent. The old man is a
crank and has an inflated value of bis
property. He won't sell for less than
a million, which would mean no extra
profit to us for tbseo years. Morally
we are Justified in taking his patent
nnd manufacturing according to its
specifications, for the good of the
country. It ia intolerable that one
know that he could not hope to find
the money to sue. Anyway, the case
would run for years, and all the while
we could be manufacturing. Very
well! But now, suppose he moved for
an Injunction to prevent us manufac
turing while the suit was pending.
How would you go about stopping lt?"
"Pay him his million dollars or
stop manufacturing," answered Smith
quietly.
Old Adamson glared at bim. "Yon
mean?"-he bellowed.
'That I would not bo a party to such
a case," answered Smith. "No doubt
you con find men who would. I nm
afraid I am not the man you need.
Good-day, slr." And bo walked out of
the office.
"You'i: hoar from us tomorrow!" he
hecrd the irate old man bellow after
him. But the threat passed over his
head. An hour later he was telling
Mollie all about lt.
"Dear, you did Just right." sho said.
But tie saw tho tears which she
vainly tried to conceal, and presently
she was weeping unreservedly upon
his knee.
The next morning when he ft
letter from the Adamson people beside
his plate he remembered the presi
dent's threat. He laughed scornfully
as he opened it. ' What could the old
man do? If he threatened him he
would. promptly bring suit for dam
ages, or defamation of character. He,
John Smith, did not intend to a!!ow
thst old ruffian to ride roughshod over
him.
He opened the envelope. Next mo
ment he dropped the letter with a cry.
"Mollie! He's offered me the Job!"
he cried in exultation. Then:
"But I can't take lt. dear: I wouldn't,
work for such people."
"Let me read it, dear,'* aald blt prac
tical wife.
She took up the letter and read it.
Then, silently, she laid it before her
husband.
"Dear Slr." be reed, "We shall con
sider ourselves fortunate If you will
consent to act as our legsl represen
I tstlvn at ? salary ot $2.000 for the
. first year. It may interest you to
know that of the five lawyers before
whoso we placed our test question
I you were the OP1? one who answered
lt in a manner satisfactory to na .Our
business baa always been conducted
according to the best traditions of
American business life, and we have
use only for an honest man."
"Molrte!" gasped John. "There ls
room for working out my theory after
all."

The camp which sent the unani

"Temper, Not IasaJ?tj."

Mrs. Bunchanan made ? lucid st it??

were tho result on ungovernable
temper.
Then turning a disdainful eye to

"You've hear/* his statement, and
now you've heard from me. Gentle
men of the jury, you can decide 7or
yourselves and without any 'IfflcuUy
which cit us hes the most sense."

LOVE WAS NOT BLIND
Ky George Munson.
(Copyright, 11U5, by \V. G. Chapman.)
"Julia! Is that you, dear?"
Tho Bick men stirred uneasily upon
the bed, and Julia Crothers ran out
to where ber younger sister, Dulcie,
waited upon the ?anding.
"It is terrible. I cannot stay there,"
she w hispered.
Dulcie, who had been trembling,
suddenly managed to pull herself to
gether and entered the room with a
firm tread. She went up to tho bed
side.
"Is that you, Julia?" murmured the
sick man again.
"Yes," answered Dulcie bravely.
Two days before. Jim Rldgely, her
sister's fiance, had been struck by
lightning. Ills recovery, at first de
spaired of, now seemed assured, but
ho was blind, and thc doctors held out
no hope of his regaining his sight.
"The optic nerve ls paralyzed," they
said. "There is the barest chance,
but the cure must be a spontaneous
one, and it must happen within the
next two or three days. Unless by a
miracle that should happen, he will
be blind the rest of his life."
Julia Crothers was the boll? nf the
town, and Rldgely a rising young law
yer. Though Julia and Dulcie were
alike in speech and manner, and were
often mistaken for each other, when
side by side lt was plain that Dulcie
was only a poor Image of Julia. She
was generally considered plain: the
difference, however, existed principal
ly in Julia's dashing ways and Dulcie's
unattractive ?nd simple ones.
Poor Dulcie, whose tender heart
went out to Rldgely. knew that her
heartless sister would never dream of
marrying a blind man. She could
trace the unconscious processes la
Julia's heart even now. And it
seemed to her that she must do her
best to shield Rldgely until he recov
ered. Possibly his sight would come
back to him. and then he need never
k.iow that It was she, and not Julia,
who bad sat at his bedside all those
long hours when he- lay racked with
pain and fever.
"He ls sleeping," she told her sister,
when at last she went out to her.
"What shall I do, Dulcie?" moaned
Julia. "I cannot bear to look upon Buf
fering. What shall I do?"
Then Dulcie told her her plan. And
it worked surprisingly. A week
elapsed, and at the end of that time,
although the doctors announced that
there was now no hope of Ridgely's
ever recovering his sight, he was able
to sit up. And he had not guessed
that It was Dulcie who had sat by his
bedside and read to him in her gentle
voice. Ho had thought lt was Julia.
And in the midst of the pain Dulcie
felt to think of Ridgely's coming disil
lusionment, there was a fierce exul
tation in her heart.
For Dulcie loved Rldgely. She had
loved him from the beginning, and
now more than ever before her heart
went out to this blind man, doomed to
-be dependent throughout his life upon
tho help of others.
Rldgely had been brought Into the'
Crothers home simply because he had
no one to care for him. Old Mrs.
Crothers, a gentle old lady, alternately
dominated and petted by Julia, bad
assented to the plan with alacrity.
But when she understood Julia's Inten
tions she shook her head mournfully.
"He thinks I am Julia, mother,"
Dulcie whispered to her. "I don't
know how to tell him."
t The old lady flared up for the first
.time in many years. "If you ask me,"
oho said, tossing her head, "I think
that Jini Is well rid of her."
i "Will you tell him, motherT" asked
.Dulcie, eagerly.
? "No. nfy dear. That is for you,"
said the old lady.
! And then, resolved tp end a situation
which had become unbearable. Dulcia
'ran up the stairs and Into Jim's room.
i He waa lying on the eora, locking out
;of the window with his sightless eyes.
; "Do you know, dear, that I have
neither asked nor received a kiss dur
ing the whole ot my Illness?" asked
Jim patiently.
j Dulcie blushed painfully.
r- "Jim. there is something ?hat 1
must tell you," she. stammered, seat
ing herself at his side.
< "Is lt something terrible?" he asked
gayly. "Tell nie. Julia, and let me sea
.whether 1 find it aa bad as you think
.'it ls."
"Oh, you don't understand." the girl
burst out. "And yet I don't know how
you can have been so bil-so unable
.to understand. I am not Julia. I am
Dulcie, and Julia-Julia-oh, Jim, how
can I manage to tell you that ehe doea
;not care for you any moro, and has
.not been near you since the second
.day of your illness? Oh, Jim, sha
doesn't care for you and never did
care, and it ls hard to have to tait
.you, and-and-"
t And Dulcie broke into a storm of
passionate tears.
Jim's hand fell lightly upon her own.
"I knew lt was you, Dulcie," he said
softly.
Dulcie raised her tear-stained face
'Incredulously.
"You see, dear, you only deceived
.me for a few honra." he said. "You
.'aaa,. Dulcie, love opens one's ears, and
I have come to realise that lt is you,
and not Julia, and I have dared to
hone-"
He drew her toward him.
"To hope that you might learn to
care for me, Dulcie. And I have dared
to tell you, because-I have aeon yon
for the past week aa clearly aa I ever
saw in my life."

Cotton should be side dressed just as soon
after it is thinned out and clear of grass as can
'be done, so that the plant will get the full benefit of all this
extra fertilization and of all the early rains. It does a great
deal more good when applied early.
Fertilizer was used lightly this spring, and
side dressing will pay handsomely this year if
put on early. We are making a 6 5 2 and a 4 7 2 especially
for side dressing. You will find .it profitable to use it. It
should be applied last of May if possible, if not then early in
June.
11 cotton is cheap the more you make to the
acre the better you are off. If cotton is high
the more you make to the acre the better you are off. For
every dollar you pay out for side dressing you get back from
three to five dollars. But apply it early. These foods are
ammoniatcd with soda, blood, tankage and fish.
