Wonld Hare Llairrretl Longer If Ha Had Sot Discovered That It Wad Not Kiactly the Sort of Ileforai Party He Believed It to Be. ICopyrlght, 1300, by C. lb Lewis.] I Tlint Mr. Bowser had something or < his tulnd was plain enough to Mrs, Bowser tlio moment lio entered th? house, nud all through the diuuer hout she saw that he was anxious to comntunicate it, but she expressed no curlosity and held him off until they wer? seated for the evening. Then she car?lessly inquired If he had discovered fl new spring and summer tonic. "I shall have callers this evening," he said as lie smiled ot her benignly, "and the result of the call may change our whole life." "What sort of callers?" ixeuucmcn, or course. 1 iicro win be from three to live. Yes, this evenMI!. BOWSKK SAID NOTHING. tug may be considered an epoch in out history." "If there are any epochs going on, 1 Huouiu iikc 10 kdow wnai mry nre Hadn't you hotter explain matters?" Mr. Bowser walked up and down foi n few uilnutes with dignified tread, and the family cat, which had beer sleeping on the lounge, opened one eye i HE BOWED E I fp ft lpey way and watched bis movo meut.s. By and by lm turped and said "Mrs. Bowser, you nre uo politician, of course, but you may possibly under stand that just at this moment the politics of this country is corrupt be> yond comparison." ' J think I understand that," she re plied. "Unless a change is made for the bet tor we shall bo disgraced before the eyes of the world as a nation. V/hal yvp want Is a wave of reform." "Apd you are going to start the ware?" she sarcastically qnprled. "I?I am- that Is, I probably am. The gentlemen are coming here this even lng to talk about it. If, in their Judg ment, I am the proper person, I shall have the honor of setting the wnvo It motion. I nni for honest politics and a pure administration." "I thought it was some such nou sense," she slowly replied. "On three or four occasions you have mixed lr politics and made a donkey of your Self, but It seems you haven't gol ptyough." '.'There ypu go! That's you!" he ex claimed In tones which Jumped the paf to the floor. "If I had n plan tc put a Bible Into the hands of every heathen on earth, you'd oppose It. I was an ass to say anything to yot] about It." "Mr. Bowser, you have been voting for 30 years. Have you ever known honest reform iu polities?" "Of course I have!" "Never! There Is no such thing It's tho same thing over and over agnlc each year. If anybody lias made yot believe that you eon bring about any change for the better, they have taker you for a fool. Why, when they want ed you to run for alderman in tbit ward on a reform ticket, they wanted a fund of $1,000 to buy up votes anc pay saloon bills!" "But this is different," he protested "What is wanted is moral Influence I.ot good men band together tc pijrlfy politics, and the movement wil spread from state to state In a week It Isn't a question of money, but ol character. I am simply to lend my IB fluence?to be one of the stepping tones, ns It were." "Well, you'll get stepped on fns1 enough. Your committee is ringing the doorbell, and I'll go up stairs. Don't get so excited over reform ns to put t on the furniture." Mr. Bowser received the committee There were fire of them. They wert headed by an ox-alderman who had de Uhemtrlf sacrificed a #8 ttchet to I ? f , boxing match lu the Interests of political reform. Even before all the gen, tlemcn had taken their seats he whisper^ In Mr. bowser's ear: "Bay, old innu, If you want this movement to be n success you waut to i bring up decanter and Kinases. The i Ik>.vs are expecting something at least > 7 years old." Mr. Bowser mined pale, but said nothing in reply. Neither did he produce the uutidote for dry cotton. When the committee were seated, he looked [ thein over and mentally rejoiced that . Mrs. Bowser had not caught sight of 1111*111. i lit'ii uu sum; "Geutlemcu, as 1 was given to understand this tiling this afternoon, the Idea Is reform in politics?" "That's It." chorused the Ave. ' "We propose to start a wave of reform which shall roll from Maine to Texas?" "We do." "I am no politician, as 1 informed your delegate. 1 have never held a political office in my life. There have been years at a time when I have not even gone to the polls to vote." "But you are an honest, respectable man and desire honest methods," said the ex-aldermau. "Yes, 1 can say that." "Then yon are the man for us, and we'll figure a bit. You don't happen to have anything iu the house to driuk, eli V" "I haven't." "You ought to have prepared for the wave of reform, but wc can all go out to a saloon after the business is done. I've got our ward ticket made out. ion sec. tne boys want me for alderman again. I don't think any of 'em bad reason to complain of me when [ was in." "Not much!" answered one' of the group with great heartiness. "It was always a square divide." "And what is my part in the campaign to be?" asked Mr. Bowser as he laid down the ticket. "Speaking, sir," was the reply. "You are to go about speaking and start the wave." "And wave this crowd into office, I * suppose?" "That's it. and you'll find it a paying : Job too. Here are the figures." "The figures about what?" ' "The profits, sir. There are six of ' us, ajid I figure that there will be at :ach one out. least $20,000 to divide among us per \ year. You'll get your whack of that ' as straight as a string. Any campaign ' funds you advance are to be paid back ^ out of the pot before It's divided. Is that plain?" "I?I don't think so. We start In to reform?" "We do." "And we reform?" ?'\Ye do." * t'Aud then?then wlu.t?" ' "We divide the prolits." "But how do we make any profit?" ! "Why. we crowd the other fellers out find get their places nud their chances, } don't we? A blind man can see that. Got your tirst speech ready?" Mr. Bowser had about 20 words to say In reply. They wore words that 1 lifted each member of the committee ' out of his chair and opened his eyes very wide. Then he headed the procession down the hall, and the cat ; , brought up in tin- runr. It was a sol' oiiin procossioii. There was painful silouco as ouch caller put on his hat ' All wore ready to go out when the exalderman said: "Old man, you've frown dis crowd ' down, hut don't get giddy over it. We 1 know how to get even." ' "Good night, sir?and good night, sir!" stlllly replied Mr. Bowser us he 1 bowed each one out and closed the door >vith tj bang. ' lie whs standing in front of tho man1 tel when Mrs. Bowser came down stairs and quietly asked: "I thought I heard a roaring, boom ing sound down here, and I came down 1 i to see if tho wave cf reform had been 1 set in motion." ' Mr. Bowser glared at her, but made 1 no reply. "Or won't the wave start until you gei jour wiihck or naicrmnnic stealings?" she continued. ' Mr. Bowser gasped and choked, but ho could not get out n word, and as Mrs. Bowser returned to her room the cat followed her and left him to won ' der how the bottom had dropped out. ) * i r??.. , f Panne velvet and exquisite velvet powers will flourish on the autumn : hats. nut It For Id t entity, t The Phoenicians were great road f builders.
