The American Legion is th< thing now to amuse fadists. The suggestion to rise a volunteei army of "First Reserves" give an opportunity for bravado and exploitation. To our mind the United States had better have; care how it goes about prepar ing for eventualities; it was thi preparedness that brought abou the death struggle in Europe andJt is this same preparednes which will get, us into troubl Ooner or later. Why, some a the jingoes in this countri would' do something to bring oi -&conflict just to have their pho %ographs taken in uniforms.

Monday's~ News and Courier contained .a story' of a destitute lamily found near Adams Rut consisting of a man 71 years o. age with six children ranging from six to 13 years. Sheriff Martin and the Gospel Mission rescued the family and supplied *their needs. The head of the -family gave his name as R. N. James. He claims to have been living at Walterboro, and hasa brother and an aged mother ir --Sumter. Referring to th ese un frtunate people, The News and Courier of yesterday says "it is .expected that in - a short whilt the family will be sent to Clar endon County where Mr. James, the spetuagenarian father, says he has prospects of securing em ployment." There is a Jame: family originally of Clarendon, -some of whom moved to Sumte a number of years ago, an'1 an other James family which has only one survivor, when the ar tiele appeared in The News and Courier we thought perhaps the the R. N. James spokeri of wa: a Clarendon man, but a carefu - avestigation cannot locate binr as being from this county,nor re lated to those that originally went from this county to Sum. ter. - It was not surprising, althougl commendable, that Sheriff Mar tin, and other people in Char leston went to the rescue of this unfortunate family. No hiuar being can suffer in that city an% " longer than the condition be comes known. Charleston may have her fatilts in the eyes o: a some, but never will she turt a her back on friendship, charity and benevolence. THE GALLON A MONTE LAW.

In other words, Mayor Grace has frankly said Charleston has no. tolera tion for prohibition nor have his people any respect for the dispensary, and,itherefore, will not submit without re sistance to the dictation ot the other counties in the state when it comes to the regulation of her 1 internal affairs. There is only thing left for Governor Manning to do,that is, i to place a strong constabulary in Charleston, made up of true and tried Prohibitionists from the country with instructions to never sleep on guard, -watch everything and everybody from the Battery to the Ashley Jgnc tion, and too, keep a close eye on those long winged birds fre quently, seen about the dumps; lest they turn out to be airships ladened with a beverage which will produce intoxicat.ion and i contains over one per cent alco hol. It will not do for Govern or Manning to counsel -with former Mayor Rhett, or present Mayor Grace, or would-be May or Hyde with regard to select ing a constabulary for Charles ton, because, they are politicians and may mislead him, but he wuuld be safe to counsel with members of the anti-saloon leag ue, the law and order league, or the business men's prohibition league of every other commun ity except Charleston; when he organizes his force, he should arm each and every one of them with a spv glass and motor cycle their clothes should be with out pockets, and a muzzle should be locked on their mouths, then will the city-by-the-sea become as dry as Sumter, and Spartan burg and Anderson will envy Charleston's righteousness. Governor Manning has ap pointed the tax commission pro vided for under a recent Act. and in doing so he was especially happy in the selection of Hon. A. W.

Mr. Jones has been a student of taxation for many years, and if any reforms can be accomplished we believe, that he above all men. will be able to succeed.

In front of im the blue waves rippled in the sun hine. The air was warm and balmy. t would have been difficult for any mne not acquainted with the country, .nd the temperature of July, to real ze that this was Alaska. "Dear Mr. Benson," ran the letter. 'We beg to inform you that, in accord mnoe with the terms of your late fath ir's will, all the property except the. imited estate entailed, goes to your rounger brother. You are, however, 3aron Linfield, and, as such, are now he owner of Linfield Maior. Kindly vire us instiuctions as to your plans. "We wish to add that, Inasmuch as he upkeep of the estate far exceeds he rent-roll, it would be to your in erest t~o sell this to your younger >roth, r. There 'S, however, a codicil 0 tht, will, made by your father in fls last illness. Should you decide to eave the woman with whom you are iving, an annual sum of five thousand pounds is to be paid you, to enable rou to keep up your title respectably. "Faithfully yours, "Dench & Dench." "The woman with whom he was Uv ng." Benson saw the words staring Lt him out of the typewritten page Efis father had known. He had mar -led a half-breed. Natusha had been educated at a nission school, and, save for the jet )lack hair and rather high cheek )ones she might have passed for a white woman. But in the eyes of his acquaintances she was a squaw, and ie a squaw-man. H6 had married her when he was despe'ately loiely In the remote North, and half-crazed with: Irink besides. Natusha had redeemed him. She. lad thrown the whisky bottles away. She had made him a home. She had Loved him, and be had loved her, too. A violent revulsion of feeling came aver Benson. He seemed to smell the 3ussek air, to see the beautiful coun try of his birth. He had friends, many, n England. Benson resolved to run away. He :ould walk to the nearest port and :atch the morrow's boat. He would leave everything to Natusha. She' would doubtless go back to her own people. He saw her watching him silently that night. Like a faithful hound she knew his moods-her lord's moods. gTatusha watched him with a dumb, aching at her heart. She had seen the change in him. At midnight, when he-thought Nata sha was sleeping, Benson arose noise lessly from his couch. He had his mackinaw and overshoes ready, for the nights were cold. When he had disappeared Natusha kneeled at the bedside a moment in prayer. She prayed to the God of whom the missionaries had told her, as she had ,never prayed before. Then she slipped out after him. As Benson strode along the trail all memory of Natusha seemed to slip Erom him. He was a boy once more, in the Sussex lanes, heartfree. He remembered the final angry scene with his father,. the old man's !utile wrath at the son who had dis lionored his name. It had been the act of a goaded man, desperate for money, but BEnson could only hang his head before the old man's scathing words. "If ever temptation comes - to you again, sir, remember what you have done and try with all your might to lonquer It," he had said. Suddenly he stopped dead. Why, this was the temptation of which his rather had spoken. He was doing now a thing still more dishonorable than that which he had done before. What was the use of being Baron LInfield If he was a scoundrel to boot? Benson sat down and fought his battle out. And, with her,,woman's in tuition one who watched him from a zear hiding place knew that the God af the mission people was wrestling with his adversary for Benson's soul. The agony on the man's face was stronger than the suffering on hers. Forgetting all, daring his wrath, Ratusha glided up to him. She kneeled it his side and put her arms around aim. And, in this position, she whispered something to him, a woman's secret hat made his heart leap as hers was Meating then. Benson rose to his feet. The hag ;ardness was gone fromt his face. He saw his duty. He saw the years of mae and dishonor stretching before aim, on the one hand, and, on the oth 31r, years of honor. He could make uimself respected. If he could not win 'ecognition for Natusha, he could for als daughter-or his son. And the aeir would be Baron Linfield, if It was boy. If a girl-well.... Natusha drew his arm through hers, md together they went back in si ence toward the cabin. Tliey entered, tnd Benson, taking out the letter, de iberately tore it to pieces. He would zot answer Dench & Dench. He would not even take the money from be estate. Let the dead past go. Benson put his arms about Natusha. She was pretty and girl-like, this lit. le wife of his. He knew now, too, hat the heart of a womazn beats the ame, and always true, whether be meath a pink or olive skin. "It's all right, Natusha," he said ~heerily.

There were two lonely, longing bearts in Reedville and both beat es pecially in unison. The possessors of the hearts were practically prisoners, beating desperately but in vain ,at the erue) bars of fate put up by relentless parents. Earle Rodney loved Marah Ellis and she fairly idolized him. He was twen ty and she seventeen. Their families were wealthy, but the heads of the families were at enmity in both busi ness and social relations. Mr. Ellis had nipped budding affections in their incipiency when he discovered that Marah had engaged herself to Earle. The father of. the latter sat down upon the glowing hopes of his impres sible son ponderously. Marah was kept practically a prison er in charge of a vigilant duenna, pend ing shipment to some isolated relative at a distance. Meantime.- poor Earle wandered about the extensive home grounds, read, smoked and grieved., He ex pected every hour to hear that his lady love had been dent away, or to receive a mandate to begiii his own irksome exile. Lolling in a amnock one at t4rnoon his interest was awakened as a kite came whirling down with a dive, landing in a thorn bush, and lay there pierced and tangled. "Hey, mister!" hailed an anxious facel lad a few moments later, mount ing the garden wall, "that's my kite." "Well, come and get it," directed Earle, and then, interested in any cir cumstances that alleviated the tedium .of the hours, he assisted the boy in getting the kite extricated from the greenery. He was tying up two pieces of broken tall when a sudden idea shot- through his mind in a vivid glow of brilliancy. - "See here," he said abruptly, "do you want to make a dollar?" "Me? Oh, my!" ejaculated. his juve nile visitor In a sort of ecstasy. "You know where the..Ellis people' live?" "Oh, sure I do." "Could you break your kite loose, or acrange it any way so you-could get an excuse to go into their garden, just as you have here?" "Sure I could," asserted the lad con fidently. , "Then, see here," and Earle whis pered in the boy's ear the substance of a derpp dark plot. Then he wrote -a note and handed It with a dollar bill to the boy, "Now, remember," he warned, "give the note to nobody but Miss Ellis. YoA land the kite while she's aboutthi garden." "Oh, I understand!' grinned the in telligent lad. Now the plot was carried out. The expert kite f!yer manipulated his air sailer just as he deftly calculated. The kite fell within the walled-in garden of the Ellis grounds. That note told Marah to steal from the house at dusk, toreach a-certain remote corner of the garden.. A light rope ladder would be thrown over the wall. She would fall Into her lover's arms on the other side. There wouldie ahurriedcurry to a sheltering grove of trees a bit far ther on, where a closed carriage would be waiting. Then the nearest Gretna Green.- Oh, how easy! Oh, how delightfuil! To a dot the plot went through. Flutteringly Marah reached the wall, scaled the ladder, dropped into a fond waiting clasp. - "My darling!" thrilled Earle. "Oh, dear! What will become of all this?" breathed the quivering girl. "Love, happiness, forgiveness!" de clared Earle buoyantly. '-Thunder!" They had reached the carriage. He helped Marah in. She screamed. He got in himself and-collapsed. - There, upon the rear seat, blandly smilng, were Dukes and Mrs. Faire. "Discovered-baffled!" cried Ead'e. "Mistake!". chuckled Dukes, benev olently. - "You heartless meddler!" flared out Marah to her duenna. "Dear - child!" smiled Mrs. Faire, blandly. "So near happiness!" murmured Earle. - "Nearer than ever, my boy!" chuckled Dukes. 'Il won't go back to that-that pris on!" sobbed Marah. "Never!" assured her duenna. ".mr. Dkes, tell them." "Why, yes," said Dukes, "we're not going to take you back. We're going with you." "Going-" "With you." - "Where?" "To -the elopement. Double affair see?" "No, I don't," said Earle. "Well, our hearts have bled for you." explained Mrs. Faire. "We've been your friends all axong. Only, you see.. we would lose our situations if we helped you-" "So, meeting Mrs. Faire, the finedt woman In the world," added Dukes. "we decided to resign and get marric d. I've a small plum of a fortune-" "And I a sIster who will be glad ta house you over the honeymoon." sup plemented Mrs. Faire.
