Tho, two gov- ernors and the National Guard officers who had spent the night in the house were not in the alightest bimy to break up the party, for such company, they all knew, could baldly be assembled again. The governors were a trifle nervous as to the attitude of the press, In spite of Collins' efforts to dictate what history should say of the affair on the Raccoon; but before they loft the table the Raleigh morning papers were brought in and It was clear that the newspaper men were keeping their contract SYNOPSIS. During the next three months, the bill boards of the United States will display 20,000 educational posters on to an an tubercuioHiH, according Douncement made by the National Ah oclatlon for the Study and F'reven lion of Tuberculosis. This will conclude the campaign be. run a year ago, when tbe National Dili Pouters' asHocluatlon donated free pace lo the tuberculous cause, the Poster Printers' association offered free printing, and nine paper ninnu factarers gave tbe paper for the post era. The combined value of these sev eral donations for this three-montcampaign la nearly $100,000. The poKttsra are In six different do signs and are all .printed In three col ora. They are seven feet wide and nine feet high. Already nearly 2,500 of these posters have been hung on Jttie bill boards of 46 different cities, and It Is planned to distribute 20.000 more belore April 1 In over 400 towns and cities. Any anti tuberculosis society in tbe United States may re ceive free of charge, except for trans portatlon, as many of these posters as can be hung on tbe boards In its tor rltory. The National association with the tuberculosis committee of the Na Uonal Billposters and Distributors are conducting the campaign. The posters show In graphic form how fresh air, good food, and rest cure tuberculosis; how bad air, over work and closed windows lead to con umption; and how the careless menaces the health of bli family by spitting on the floor. "Thomas WALTERS THE WHITE PLAGUE Roth governors had decided upon an inspection of such portions of their militia as were assembled on the Raccoon, and a Joint dress parade was appointed for six o'clock. Ardmore, anxious to make every one at home, saw the morning pass without a chance to speak to Jerry; and when he was free shortly before to lose my Job." "You ought to have something to "As do," said Jerry, thoughtfully. near as I cun make out you have never done anything but study about pirates and collect pernicious books on the sinful life of Cant. Kldd. You should have some larger aim in llf than that and I think I know of good position that is now open, or will be as soon as papa has cleared out the peanut shells we left in his desk, I think yon would make an excellent adjutant general with full charge ot the state militia." "Hut you have to get rid of Glllingwater first," suggested Ardmore, hit heart beating fast. "If you mean that he hns to be re moved from office, I will tell you now, Mr. Ardmore, that Rutherford Gilllng water will no longer sign himself adjutant general of North Carolina, I removed him myself in a general order I wrote yesterday afternoon Just before I told papa that you and could not act as governor any longer, but that ho must resume the yoke." "Hut that must have been a matter of considerable delicacy, Miss Danger field, when you consider that you are engaged to marry Mr. Gllllngwater. "Not In the least," said Jerry. broke our engagement the moment saw that he came here tho other night all dressed up to eat and not to fight, and he is now free to engage himself to that thin blonde at Golds- boro whom be thinks so highly Intel lcctual." Jerry held up her left hand and regarded its ringless fingers judicially, while Ardmore, his heart racing hotly against all records, watched her,' and with a particular covetousness his eyes studied that trifle of a hand Then with a quick gesture he seized her hand and raised her gently to her feet. "Jerry!" he cried. "From the moment you winked at me I have loved you. I should have followed you round the world until I found you. If - Continued. "No!" cried Jerry. "We shall do nothing of the kind! I met Mr. Ap- plewelght under peculiar cireum stances, but I must say that I formed a high opinion of his chivalry and I beg that we allow him to take a little trip somewhere until the Woman's Civic League of Raleigh and the carp ing Massachusetts press have found other business, and he can return in peace to his home." "That," said Gov. Osborne, "meets my approval." Two more prisoners were now brought in. "Gov. Dangerfkld," continued Ard more. here is your state treasurer, who had sought to injure you by de faulting the state bonds due which is the first of June. And that frowsy person with Mr. Foster Is Sec retary Hillings of the Dronx Loan & Trust Company, who has treated me at times with the greatest Injustice and condescension. Whether Treasurer Foster has tho money with which to meet those bonds I do not know; but I do know that I have paid them in full through the Uuckhaw Na tional bank of Raleigh." Col. Daubenspeck leaped to his feet and swung his cap. He proposed three cheers for Jerry Dangerfield ; and three more for Iiarbara Osborne; and then the two governors were cheered three times three; and when the bungalow had ceased to ring, It was seen that Ardmore and Griswold were In each other's arms. "Surely, by this time," said Mrs. Atchison, "you have adjusted enough of these weighty matters for one day, and I beg that you will all dine with us at Ardsley at eight o'clock, w here my brother and I will endeavor to mark in appropriate fashion the signing of peace betweeu your neighboring kingdoms."

"Don't ever refer to it again, If you love me," spluttered Grlswo'd, amiably, as he washed off the lather. "1 too, have ruled over a kingdom, and I have seen history in the making, rjuorum pars mngna fui." "Hut I say, Grlssy, there is such a thing us fate and destiny and all that after all; don't you believe Jt?" "Don't 1 believe It! 1 know it!" thundered Griswold, reaching for a towel. He lifted a white rose from a glass of water where It had spent the night and regarded it tenderly, "The right rose under the right star, and tho thing's done; the rose, the star and the girlthe combination simply cau't be beat, Ardy."
