She looked so pretty In her gleam In satin and lace that James' Iriita Uoa vanished and be could do notb In; but agree that It bad been a l;vui? dinner, and that he was glad rlvy bad given It. Jane, when she chose, could still b very tender and alluring, and now, of course, she must be most carefully cherished and considered Perbaps after the baby came things would be different and Jane not so avid for excitement. Jamea knew be must have more time for lis work, more time for study. Jane wanted blm to succeed, expected aim to succeed, but some way she could not realize that she. as well la he. must pay a price for that suc cess. It was natural enough that lane should not understand. He would have to teach ber, lead her Instead of taking always the sasler course of letting her lead blm Very tenderly he drew ber down od bis lap beside an open window after switching off the lights; "Honey," he began, "I want to bave a talk with you" Jane yawned, "I know that you are going to scold and I am so tired," she coaxed. "I'm not going to scold, dear." "Then you're going to preach. I teel It in my bones. Can't we be happy like this on our anniversary without thinking of anything but pleasant things?" Naturally, James did not preach on this night: and It waa the same on other nights. As the months passed Jane was far from well and he grew more and more Irritable and leBS easy to please. James folt guiltily conscious that It was all his fault- i - Jane Impressed It upon him tbat tfia lot of women waa a hard one and carcely to be endured. Mrs. North rup looked at him accusingly every time her daughtor sighed or refused pudding at dinner, and Anna sniffed scornfully whenever she passed him his food. Their Suudays were more awful than James had conceived possible He finally had given up spending his free afternoons with his aunt after Jane cried and cried and al most had hysterics, claiming that he did not love her. Damn It! the lot of husbands waa not always a round of voluptuous enjoyment whatever Jane and her mother thought about It Heaven knows ha hadn't Invented the method and manner of bringing chil dren Into the world. He had thought that women wanted children and pitted old maids because of their childless state. nERHAPS it Is an exaggeration to say that all of New Concord was somewhat relieved when It be came common knowledge that Jane was "expecting." However, it Is true that all those who had James' In terest and welfare at heart were rellovcd. For some time during the close of the second year of their marriage the belief had become general that things weren't going Just as they should between this especially se lected and uncommonly well-suited young couple. It was not that James complained or Jane complained or that they , quarreled In public or wero seen loss often together. It was hard Indood to define Just what seemed to be the matter, but that there waa a vague "aomothlug" everyone agreed. And it waa felt or at least hopod. that whatever ripples there wore were caused enllrely by the state of Jane's hoalth and would be smooth ed out and forgotten "after the baby came." Nappy was perhaps the first one to "suspicion" that James was not as happy as he should be and he. being worried, passed his uneasiness on to the Judge. "It's Mlstor James' hair," he ex plained to Judge Holromb. "It ain't been acting Jest right, not for a long whiles." "Ills what?" boomed the Judge Impatiently.

"His hair, the balr on his bald 1 can most generally tell the state of MiBter James' sperrlts by making note of bow his hair acta. When he's raring round, feeling flttcn to bust, you'll notice as how every hair on hla bald Is standing upon Its hind lalgs looking the world In the face and shouting 'howdy.' " The Judge laughed. "Sounds like a Gorgon's bead, the way you de scribe It" "Yes, sir," said Nappy who had never heard of a Gorgon's head, but would not bave admitted It for a hundred dollars. "It's one and the same thing to my way of believing." "But what has James' hair beene doing now to disturb you?" "It ain't been doing nothing but lay down and play dald tor weeks , and weeks. Tbat's as onnatural as for a lamb to lay down with a Hon and as sure a sign a trouble." "Nonsense," said the Judge. "Jim's been putting aome kind of grease on bis bead to mnke it lie flat. You're not aa smart as I thought you were. going around making up trouble about nothing at all." But tbougb he dismissed Nappy and laughed at his diagnosis, he could not dismiss altogether the sneaking suspicion that perhaps Nappy was right and that James waa not looking nor acting quite like himself. He'd got him to knock off a few weeks, go down to Hot Springs or up to Chicago and tako in a few shows. A vacation would nut him right aa a fiddle. He should have thought of It before. JAMES dutifully took Jane and went tn nhfrnen tnr a tvanu ht when he came back Nappy roported that hla balr was "laying" as flat as when he left home. A few weeks later when James confided Jane's condition to the Judge the old man was enormously relieved. He patted James on the back, as sured him cheerfully that there was nothing to worr about, reminded him of Jane'a genera! health and of the billions of babies who came safely Into the world without harm to their motherB. Then the Judge very wisely set James to work on the very stlffest legal problem be had ever before had to handle and when he ImlBhed that Immediately found him an other. This last probably saved Jamea from going all to pieces In the following months, for he was horribly frightened thinking of the fate of his own mother. Nappy continued to accord to Mrs Stlmson all the respect and defer ence due to the wife of his beloved "Mister" James, but he never BRaln thoroughly approved of hor. In bis eyes any wife romnfned only a wo man and a hantllcnp to any rcnl man. But even Nappy forgave Jane one frosty morning In early Derember when James came stumping up the flight of stairs that led to the office and throw open the entrance door with a magnlflcont flourish. His eyoa flashed with their old Are, every single hnlr waved tri umphantly aloft and his feet could scarcely keep themselves on the floor as ha shouted out that there were twins at his homo -a boy and a girl. Aa Nappy remnrkod, "Missus Stlmson had more'n done herself proud." The entire tlrm of Stlmson and Holcomb stoppod work then and there and made a triumphal progreas up and down Commercial Street an nouncing the nows. giving awny flve and ten-cent clgara. receiving hilari ous congratulations nnd having one very devil of a time. When James went home he had a rocking horse under one arm, a doll under the other, a Jeweler's box In bis pockot and a bunch of flowers carried by a string In his hand. Anna opened the door to James' ring and gnve a contemptuous sniff when she ann the nnlure of his packages, hut as usual alio made no comment The house waa un naturally quiet and James tiptoed cautiously upstnlra. The door to Jnno's room waa slightly ajar nnd he pushed It open with his foot and entered quietly Mrs. Northrup. sitting by the win dnw sewing, held up a warning finger, but Jane opened her eyes and welcomed him.

April 22 (APt Five thcishand carloads of pota- : toea have rolled out of the Klamath j country to establish a new high for 1 the "baby industry" of this section i of Oregon. The crop, gaining top position In ! (he California markets, has brought to farmers of the basin approxi mately two mllUon dollars. Regulated marketing as well as quality, has been responsible for the j success of Klamath potatoes this year, many agriculturists believe. In former years the crop has been ship ped Irregularly, glutting the market one day and leaving it empty the next. This season shipment have ?one out of here In Just the propor tions to maintain an active demand. The average price ha been one dollar a aack. Right now the market In the south )s at a peak with pota toes brining $2 per hundred weight. Potato acreage has grown steadily here in the last few years. The new crop will cover about 15,000 acres, one thousand more than the old. Freight Loadings Continue Increase WASHINGTON, April 22.
