It's what an American Legion man said after he had pufFecl a Spur for a moment or two. He knew cigarettes. Found how com forting a good one is. Had' 16 months in France. And he ncw what he was talking about when he said: "More Lie a Smoke" That's because you can taste the good tobacco in Spurs. You get the aroma of a new and delicious blend of the finest leaf grown in Turkey, fine Bur ley and other homegrown tobaccos. Unmarred bystarch because the seam is crimped not pasted.

The llrt oni' liml been called Straight treut from time Im mi'iiiorlnl nnd w.if uptly so designated. Itruiichlug nil" from it wu what hud been originally n more cow path. No effort was made to untangle lt.s sltni 0'iltlcM. The precise opposite of tho hi oud, fur extending struct called Straight, II was nnttirally termed Crooked stieet, Ah time went on and the town grow they changed tho name to IScllcphiluo nvenue, hut the old set tler nnd even the younger generation very often called It by Its old name. It was probably mere clrcumstnncu thnt lodged Vernon Blnlr on Straight street. The thoroughfare was respect able nnd he was of a character that would peek such an eirvlrontnent. It wns predilection, however, thnt drift ed I'.lake Massey to Crooked street. Gradually that avenue had b.'cotne ob scure, Its houses dilapidated. It was Hip social dumping ground of the town uud what there were of drinking plncei and the like found a harbor that suit ed them. Massey had decent rooms nbove a pawn shop. lie liked to be ntnld scenes of nctlvlty and excitement and tho place stilted him. He never stopped to think that the eomp'nnlon ship ho Incidentally gained wns not elevating, hut he cherished his lively evenings among men who liked to see what they called "life." He had charge of it lloor In the principal department store of the town and Vernon lllulr was tho man ager of another paying the best sal ary In the establishment. l.Inlr had worked hard and faithfully to gain thl pre-eminence. He had honest dreams of a future nnd when ho fell In love with I.esblu Htirrow he fan cied he saw .success before him. Jllnlr was uneasy when he learned that Massey had been Introduced to Lesbln by a mutual friend nnd noted thnt his flnhy ways had a certain effect In Interesting Lesbln, her fami ly nnd her friciuR There was' n Haunting, specious fel low named Orcg Barth with whom Miioy trained and one day nt tho noon hour these two met In a restau rant near the store, "Well, I fancy I've set the ropes," wns the greeting of Bnrth. "So far its this Burrows girl you are so wild over, Is concerned, I don't think her folks will tolerate much of Blnlr's company after a letter I Imvo got a particular friend of mine In Etnpton to write reaches them. That will bo his quietus." "Now then, nbout his position at tho store." . "You know that little cousin of mlno, Ned Trotterr, wns transferred to Blnlr's department last week?" "Yes." "Well, leave the rest to Ned. I've posted him and he Is clever ns they make them. Pretty soon Blnlr's de partment will be In a muddle, missing goods, neglept In deliveries nnd all thnt. You understand?" "I do," nssented his unprincipled confrere, "nnd I won't begrudge a liberal rake off when I get the new position." A month Inter to the amazement of everybody who knew him, Vernon Blnlr was dismissed from the service of the store. Because the parents of Lesbln began to act coldly and sus piciously toward him he left Mill vllle, attempting no explanation of his dismissal, and took a subordinate posi tion In Empton. Thifi confirmed n cortnln suspicion Mr. nnd Mrs. Bur rows entertained, for a letter that coupled his name with n young lady who came from that town had reached them. Lesbln mourned, but she bore her grief In silence for clrcumstnuces allowed no meeting with Blair again. One day Lesbln was passing a street corner when nn automobile furiously driven turned It Sharply. A Ind of about sixteen was directly In its path. lie was borne down nnd then tossed against the curb. 'Iho spot wns only n square from Lcsbla's home. She recognized tho lad as Ned Trotter, know thnt ho lived poorly with strangers and In her sympnthy and Interest In nn orphaned hoy had him conveyed to her own home. For n week Ned wns given tender nnd willing enre by tho Burrows fami ly. Ills Injuries were quite serious, hut he mended rapidly. Ho was seated In an invalid chair on tho porch one dny, when he noticed Lesbln gazing nt a photograph, her eyes brimming with tears. The original of the pic ture at a glance ho knew to be Ver non Blnlr. Tho better nnturo of Ned stirred within him. lie rccnlled tho plot ngnlnst Blair In which he hnd been In duced to act. He knew nbout tho falso letter, no had come to Idolize these new friends who had done so much for him. "Miss Burrows." he ppokc, "I have done you and Mr. Blnlr a great wrong. Will you help me right it?" And then the whole story came out. It presented Ned In no enviable light. "But I'm willing to suffer If I have to," ho docfared plucklly. "My pn.rt I will freely, confess. All I say, about tho letter I will prove." It took only a few days for Lesbln to straighten out the tanglo thnt threatened to destroy her happiness and that of Vernon Blnlr. Quietly Massey wns discharged, as quietly Blair wns reinstated. The plotter de parted for parts unknown. Ills victim won the bride of whom ho wns truly .worthy. . ....,.' E. S.
