might have been a good evening!” The neifct day, around noon, Tony
Ellen wanted to cry_ out, “I won’t
forget it. You’ve got to hear my side!
I won’t be put down in your mLn<l as
an unscrupulous little fortune hunt
er?”
Instead she folded her hands in her
lap aiKl shirt her mouth tight and^
didn’t ^aay anything at all. In fact,
nrither ahe nor Tony spoke again un
til the car droye up to the door of
EXlen’s house. Until Tony, ndt even
touching her hand, tonight, bade her
a brief “Good night.”
Ellen went slowly, drscglnfirly> up
. the stairs to her room, «fter aihe had
left Tony, and threw herself, fully
dressed, across her bed—as had,
in the aftentootn.
All through the next day Ellen sat
. in her'room — waiting for Tony to
phone her, waiting for hia flowersi'to
arrive.^ There was no reason why she
should sit there. She would have been
' working. But ahe didn’t want to work,
somehow. She juet wanted to wait for
^Tony.
Morning lengthened into noon, noon
became afternoon, and then twilight
settled down. But there wasnT any
ring at Ellen's doorbell, and her phone
was soundless. •
By gentle stages twilight became
evening, and evening bwame eig^
o’clock. And still there was no call
from Tony, and still there wm no
florist’s boy. And then th^ came a
knock at the door and EIIct, opening
it, saw Gay on tbs threshold.
“Tell me you're glad to.(j»ee me,”
was Gay’s giving. “Wall street’s
shot, and so am I!”
(Jay flung her hat across the room
-and sank into one of Ellen’s easy
chairs.
‘That’s why I’m here, really,” she
sakL “All joking aside. Someone told
me you were feeling low, so I thought
I’d stop by and see if I could do you
for an^hing. I’ll bet you haven’t had
any dinner ...” She paused, went on
with a rush.
‘?Say, Ellen,” she asked, “come
clean! Are you and Tony fighting?
Don’t think people aren’t talking,’,
she said, “and speculating. Sandy
tells us that be took you out to din
ner once, and that you met Tony and
the g. f. eating together. Qaire tells
^ me she saw the g. f. again—pussy
footing it toward Tony’s office. And
that famous house party—why didn’t
you stay it out? How do you suppose
~ that looks, to us!”
“What do I care how it looks?” an
swered Efll«i aavagely. “Lend me a
haxAj, Gay; I thiidc maybe Fm going
to cry.**
^ Ellen was sniffling into the hand-
_ kerchief. —
“Tony hasn’t said' or done any
thing,” "she told Gay., “I'm the one
that’s L You see,”' she gul^;
telephoned. Ellen had been up at sev
en, expecting his call. The hour.s from
i«*ven until noon had 8eeme<l unlveliev-
ably_^and brutally long. Again she
didn’t understand, she wuldn’t under
stand! Tony’s voice ididh’t sound at all
like Tony’s voice, to Ellen. It sounded
like a tired, older man’s voice.
“You wanted me?” asked Tony,
Wanted him! Ellen wished that she
might have crawled into the tele
phone, that she might go to Tony
across the wires, she wanted hjm so
badly-: V '•'
“Tony,” she said, “Fve got to'see
you right away. There’s something
we’ve got to talk about.”
Tony’s voice was weary. “I can’t
help wondering,” he said, “what it
IS
»»»
Ellen took a hard grip <m her cour
age.
“You said, Tony,” she told him, “the
night you ask^ me to marry you,
that you’d give me everything I ever
wknted. That I could have the biggest
apartment on Park avenue, and live
with"you in it. Well, Tony, I want to
liye with you in it, nOw. I’m ready to
make the advances. I don’t want to
go on this way, any longer.”
There was silence for a moment on
the other end of the phone. And then :
“Oh, God!^’ said Tpny. and hung up
the receiver. ’
It waa two o’clock wh^ a special
messenger„,^^K>ught a note. It was a
sharp, cult iRtle note.
“Fm sorry, Ellen,” it began, wi^
out any word of greeting, “but jmu
picked the wrong time to ask fdr an
expensive apartment and aB ^cat goes
with. it. It's utteriy imppwVble, as
things are, for me to <5<^ply iVith
your wishes. In fact, afraid-it’s
goodbye as far at ^’re concerned.”

- With qniveripg fingers she was
reaching for her hat, -was pulling H
over her curls. And then she was rac
ing down the stairs, feeling ill and
dizzy and lost. On the street she hailed
a taxi and gave the jdriver Dick’s ad-
my mot lier. Wt*’d livtsl together, all
alone, for scv^ntiet'n years, Dick. And
from the time I was old enough to un
derstand wo^s, she .tol<l me that 1
should love. lightly. She’d ha<l a very
cruel “"lesson, Dick. You. see, my
father ...” \
It didn’t take such a long while to
tell the story—^not nearly as long , as
H had taken to gain courage to tell
the story!
Strange how futile it seemed at this
telling and retelling! Strange how ar
tificial and unreal it waa.
“I think,” for the fi^t time Dick’s
voice waa unsteady, and it -was an un-
at^adineae bom of renunciation, “I
think that I’d better take you down
to Tony’s office, I want you to tell
him everything, dear-—just as you
have told it 'to me."

Spartanburg, Jan. 29.—Peach tree

An exhaustive survey of the Spar
tanburg orchards made recently by
Mr. Rawl shows a total of 222,939
trees in 90 orchards, ranging from an
acre to 200 acres in size and totaling
2,064 acres. Only 39 per cent are now
in fdll bearing, but Mr. Rawl ©sti-
inates a produertion of 1000-cart an

as if she could hardly wait until H had
reached the studio building where
Dick lived!
But when she opened the door, the
world began to take shape again. For
Didc was standing in front of his
easel, just as he had always stood, and
waa painting away, just as he had
always painted. —
“Wdl, has the prodifaL come
home?” he called out. And then, peer
ing arirund the easel—
“For God’s sadie, Ellen, what’s hap-
perred?”
It was as it had been the night of
her marriage. Ellen waa in his arms,
crying and laughing, and a button on
the front of Dick’s shirt was rudrhing
against her nose, f
it «M hard to make the admission i.« ^

Tony’s left me! He’s* through
is planned for ,the near future.
In the Ridge Spring peach area in
Saluda and Edgefield counties, where
a survey was made last year, a rapid
increase in new plantings was sho^,
Mr. Rawl states.
Another' commercial peach area is
in the sandhills section iiKluding
Ghesterfieid, Richland, and Kenhaw
coimties. That area has shown a rap
id decline in number of trees in recent
year*. ^ A survey will be’ made there
also when prcstical.
The present annual commercial
peach production for the state, ac
cording to Mr. Rawl’s figures, is'the
equivalent of 1000 cars, as contrasted
with 16 cars in 1923. The increased
plaiitings in the Spartanburg and
-Ridgr'Spring areas will ihore timn
double the present production if pro

that one man should have'a million

In ba<l years, there is plenty of
grumbling here, and sometimes a lit
tle rioting, but it matters little. For
here ihe sufferers are not the rulers.
The supreme power is in the hands
of a class, numerous, indeed, hut se
lect, of an e<lucated jclass, of a class
which is, and knows itself to be, deep
ly interested in the security of prop
erty and. the maintenance of order.
Accordingly, the malcontents are
firmly, yet gently, reHtraine<l. The bad
time is got over without robbing the
wealthy to relieve the indigent. The
springs of national prosperity soon
begin to flow again; work is plerrtiful,
wages rise, and all is tranquility and
cheerfulness.
