I beg to call the attention of Demo cratic precinct chairman, and precinct secretaries, that all Democrats who desire to vote in the coming Demo cratic primary election, must have their names enrolled upon the club list for their precints five days before the first primary election. If you fail to enroll and are refused the privilege of casting the ballot, no one will be to blame but those who neglect to enroll Nr. registration certificate will be required to vote in the Democratic primar>. but every Democrat should go before the county supervisors of registration and register under the constitution of South Carolina, and HE gardens of Mme. Sonia Sa- dowa's villa, just outside Paris, were gayly decorated for a law'ii fete. The grounds were dotted w ith laughing groups of bright ly dressed men and women, lor Sonia had particularly requested that all her Marsovian guests wear their pictur esque nutiva costume, and the result was a veritable kaleidoscopic carnival of color, a perfect riot of gorgeous hues and striking figures. Ambassador Popoff. his long, lean figure draped in vivid green, was pac ing the alleys of the garden near the entrance gate, pausing nervously now and again to scan late arrivals in s' .a h of some one. At length he de scried the man he sought. Nish was just bustling into the grounds, and the ambassador at once beckoned to him “Now, then, Mr. Nish,” cried Popoff as soon as the little dork had sham- have as good eyes as any man. i think, sir. I can detect love when I see it. And fr *m the way De Jolidon looks at the widow why. man, I don’t know a single thing that doesn’t point toward his being in love with her.

I inc 'u ’in ’rried.’” “Mr. Nidi." interrupted Popoff, "if you can stop wriggling around like an inebriated centiped long enough to talk plainly, will you do me the honor to put your blitherings into plain words V" “Well, -.our excellency.” stammered Nish, “1 iiappeu to know M. de Joli don is already head over heels in love with a lady who has a husband. He”— “Mr. Nish.” thundered Popoff, “you are demeaning yourself to the con temptible act of talking scandal! Are you aware of that, Mr. Nish? If so, go on talking it and tell me who she is.” “You fool!” whispered Danllo in Nish’s ear. "Everybody but the am bassador himself knows it is Mme. Popoff whom De Jolidon loves. Be careful!” “Well. Mr. Nish,” repeated Popoff majestically as he eyed the squirming clerk with lofty majesty, "I’m wait- wake of hks chief. “I’d like to think so. It—it would make it less exclusive, less of a monopoly. And to think his excellency never recognized his own wife's fan! Where ignorance is bliss why read up on divorce laws?” Laying the fan on a nearby table. Danilo was turning away when a voice behind him called mockingly: “Still in retreat? So you are afraid if me!” Whirling about, the prince faced Sonia. She was bewitchingly pretty in the black and gold Marsovian dress that snowed to fullest advantage every willowy line of her figure. “I’m not retreating,'' he contradicted, “only skirmishing in light cavalry when I'm married I shall live in Paris.” “I thought you were more patriotic.” he sighed. “It seems hard that you should turn your back on your native land, marry a Frenchman and settle here." “Yet it is what I have decided.” she answered. "This is probably the last time I shall wear our native costume or dance our wild national dances. To day’s fete is a sort of farewell to old times.” “No: our dances and costumes would not appeal to a Frenchman. Who is it you are going t,o marry?" “The engagement isn’t announced yet,” she evaded. “Then.” he returned, with a shrug “I suppose I shall never know ANNOUNCEMENT.

"By the way,” she added, “how do you happen to be here? You | declined my invitation.” “I’m here,” he replied bluntly, “be- | cause I’m making it my business to get riil of every Frenchman who shows ! tal man could resist, signs of proposing to you.” “But why?” she asked in wonder. "For my own amusement; that's all.” “You—you don't happen to be in love with me yourself?” she asked, a tinge of wistfulness in the light mockery of her tone. "Certainly not!” he retorted, with suspicious promptitude. "You’re very, very rude!” For Cor.yreas.
