"P.ob. you're greedy! Just beeausi;
It happened t tin t you got more than
your share of dunces once you expect
the same thing forever."
"Vmi are begging the question, Sue.
If one must use plain Knglish, here
goes : You know I love you. I told
you so two months ago. nnd you prom
ised to answer my question in a week
That was the week Pert Kwiiitf came,
and you scarcely looked my way onet
while he was here. I guess you for
get that I'm still waiting. I runt stand
this suspense any longer. What is It
to be yes or no. Sue?"
She temporized. "Suppose it's no!"
"It's Jti-t about what I expected!"
bitterly.
ft was the spark needed to send the
tinder Into llauie.
"You're Jealous that's what you
are, and I'm sure It would be anything
but bliss to spend the rest of my days
with you. So I'll say 'No' since you're
so uuxious to hear it."
Hob made no answer. The music
had stopped inn! the return to the
house was made in silence.
Susy convinced herself that she had
done exactly right in refusing P.ob. "If
I had said 'Yes' to 1 1 i lit tonight, that i
would have inetmt slavery for the rest
of my days." i
Hut that night, after she got Into ,
bed, somehow things looked different.
T,-e despair In Hob's eyes had gone 1
straight to her heart and stayed there, j
So she cried herself to sleep. j
Daylight lightened her remorse, how-
ever. She realized now that although J
she was sure she loved Hob, she whs
Just as certain th.it he was unduly '
jenleus. And so her busy brain
hatched n plan that was calculated to ;
set everything right in the future. j
So she wro the following letter to j
Pert lOwing nnd dispatched it forth- 1
with: j
"ler Pert: You told me to count .
upon you when I needed a friend. I ,
do need one now, and I want you to i
do me an unusuiil favor. I don't want
to be cimig d to you for two reasons '
first, because I don't love you, and
second, because you don't love me '
but would it be convenient to let peo
ple think we are for a little while?
You see (I may as well tell you) It's !
P.ob. He's so Jealous and I want to ;
cure him before I take him for good j
'ind all. 1 refused him last night. I
"Faithfully,
"SUE." j
To which letter Pert replied in the
iillirniiitive. declaring his intention of i
si'i i'diii;.' the next two weeks In town
ins;, way nnd saying they could "tlx j
things up."
So Pert arrived nnd. by paying Susy
constant attention nnd acting the part
of the devoted lover, the rumor soou
gut abroad that they were engaged.
Put, to Susy's consternation, the ef
fect upon Pob was uot all that could
have been desired.
His spir'ts had risen like u barometer
on a blight sunny day, the cuuse be
ing apparently pretty Isabel Klemiug,
whose brother happened to be Perl
Swing's host.
Secretly Susy raged. "Hob's making
a perfect goose of himself. The ideu
of pretending to be so completely uu
inhibited when I said 'No.'"
I'fert had to leave llnally, nnd Susy
went with him to the station. There
they met Isabel and Pob waiting for
the same train. Susy's heart sunk
when she saw the traveling bags. It 1
looked like a honeymoon! Put, to her !
relief, Isabel said good -by to her escort '
and turned to Pert as the train came
in.
"Take good care of her!" cnlled Pob. '
"You be? 1 will !" returned Pert as
he and Isabel disappeared inside.
Pob faced Susy. "May I drive you 1
home?" It was the first time he had
spokeu since t'- night she had refused
Mm.
"Yes," she answered. And then with
a catch iu her voice: "Oh. P.oti, v hen
feu cnu't ,-et Isabel ou want me! Io
,ou think It's fair! You've scarcely
looked nt me lately." 1
"It works both ways, I think," he
H:ild grimly. "You haven't had much
time jolirself."
"Put I didn't mean anything, Pob. i
ICeally there was nothing iu it all."
"All right. I'm glad of it, but 1
don't see why you're telling me." !
"Pe because I dou't love anyone
but you, Pob, and I'm sorry I said 'No.' ' j
They were iu the motor now and had j
taken the long way home. The road, I
walled ' by trees on both sides, wn'
quite secluded. I
"You're sure you mean that, are you.
Sue?"
"Yes, I'm sure ! Very sure !"
He drew a long breath. "It's good
to hear you say so, dear. I've ulwuyf
loved you devotedly and I do this inin
ute, dear little Susy."
"Put why were you so nice to Isa
bel T"
He hesitated. "We were gooc
friends; that's all. Just like you and
Ewlng, I suppose. Do you know where
they are going?"
"They? No."
To be married. They've been en
gaged all along."

Prohbton
in Action
Tlie following signed statement lias just been issued by some prominent business men
of Denver, some of whom, before tlie state went dry, were openly opposed to state-wide pro
hibition :
"We are firmly convinced that prohibition is a great step forward for the
moral and commercial betterment of our citizens, our government, and our business
interests. We have come in contact with many business men who were formerly
opposed to prohibition, but who are its staunchest supporters at this time, because
business is better, bills are collected more promptly, and the benefits of prohibition
are everywhere evident. Denver has never been so much alive. The banks show
tremendous increase in deposits and earnings, and this year has been the largest
tourist year in our history, proving conclusively that tourists are not influenced by
the amount of booze they can get."

Prohibition is in action in 19 states, most of Canada,

building new savings accounts, stimulating business,
increasing labor efficiency and creating a happier stand
