PANSY BLOSSOM Higer's The Reliable Shopping Center of Quality THIS IS LEONARD WOOD 77 Ma; ff7o JFow ? Unqualified Endorsement of Theodore Roosevelt, Greatest American of His Time. and the man who should get your vote in the Primaries, April 5th A vote for Leonard Wood Is a vote for Roosevelt's principles, for the very same things that Roosevelt would be advocating if he were alive today. A vote for Wood Is a vote for a candidate whose backers have pledged themselves to see that the voice of the people of Michigan Is heard In the state and national conventions. Wood Is fighting fir the nomination, not merely to gather up delegates to be transferred to some other candidate when the party leaders decide that the psychological moment has arrived. General Wood, In his public utterances, has shown a thorough understand. Ing of the farmer's problems and a warm sympathy for the farmer. He says: "Our stability reets largely In the agricultural population. The red flag never files over the house of a farmer who owns his farm. If the Amer loan farmers had not played the game as they did, we would have lost the war, becauso we would not have been abte to feed our Aides In the field as well at ourselves. If the American farmers had struck, the Germans would have won the war. The farmers sent their sons to war, and In spite of the shortage of labor they, by tremendously Increasing their efforts, gave the frortd the biggest crop In hictory. Agriculture Is not only the principal source of our wealth, it Is the groundwork of our most stable citizenship. "We must have a department of agriculture conducted for the farmer by men who really know farming from the furrow to the crop. It should be the Intention of the national government at Washington to make farming condi tions such that there would be fewer tenant farms and more owned farms." Theodore Roosevelt said of Lenoard Wood: "He has mado all good Amer icans his debtors by what he has done."

VJekte smiled. She sat looking dom at the water rolor sketch which the Japanese had placed In her hand. "lotl are poetical. Kato," she re plied, "and an artist, too. I ilke your pansy hlosxnni. ai d I like your pretty way of naming women." Vickie sighed "KverytMng here is beautiful enough to Inspire one to poetry and art. Kato, can you imgalne a lovelier Fpot? Tin sea sparkling before us In the sun shine, and the tall background of trees, before the hotel. One ought to be happy here, Kato." The girl moved her pretty hand Impatiently. "One would be If " she laughed idiaklngly. "If some one were not a! ways taking the Joy out of life." "Some eiu'V" questioned the Japan ese softly, raising his brows. Vickie drew nearer. "I Just nave to tell you," she said. "It will be such u comfort to eonllde, and you are a sphinx, Kato; wild horses couldn't draw a contldence from you." The youth bowed gravely. "At your service, Tansy r.lossora," he assured her. "Mother's apparent purpose in bring ing me here," said Vickie, "was that I might enjoy the pleasure with her of a seaside resort. The real underlying reason was to break off an attachment which she had discovered between my self and Ilruce Masters. Mother has other plans in view for her debutant e daughter, than being the wife of hon est Iiruce Masters. Ilruce Is not rich, you see, Kato, also he has still his profession to light for. liut he loves me, and I " The girl gazed out to sea, a tender smile curving her lips. "I love Ilruce," she ended softly. And this Bruce whom you love I worthy?" Kato asked. She nodded vehemently. "There's a wealthy banker In the ofiing," she explained, 'upon whom mother has set her ambitious heart. She can't make me marry him, Kato, but she can prevent mo from seeing Bruce. I'm sure I don't know how It's all going to end. You must see, how slight I'm growing, Kato no appe tite at all. And If It were not for your wonderful musical performance at the theater each afternoon, I real ly don't know what I should do. You help me to pass the time, too. You're very interesting, Kato. I'm so glad you are 'the fashion" at the hotel. "You are sorrowful, disappointed," Kato went on; !'may be some way I can help you." "Dear Kato," Vickie said. "Please try." He arose, assisting the girl with a courtly air. Vickie slipped her hand through his proffered arm and the two went stroll ing together down the beach. "My dear Mrs. Varden," an Impos ing looking woman upon the hotel teranda said, to a woman In an ad Joining rocking chair, "are you not afraid to allow your charming daugh ter so much of that fascinating Jap's society? Young people have roman tic Ideas, you know, and the accom plished musician may be dangerously entertaining." Vickie Varden's mother turned, sud denly startled; then she laughed. "My daughter Is not so easily fas cinated," she replied. But the uncom fortable suggestion rankled. That evening the mother felt called upon to drop a warning remark. "Don't you think that you are be ing too good to that Japanese?" she drawled. "Surely there Is nothing about him to so constantly amuse." To her surprise the girl whirled about In Indignation. "Kato doesn't amuse me," she re torted. "I like him ; he is my friend." Speechless, the mother gazed after her daughter's wrathful departure. Then In anger, she followed swiftly as the girl passed out upon the hotel veranda and deliberately down to a dusky secluded corner. The mother's newly awakened fears were realized. The Japanese was already there, evi dently awaiting her daughter's appear ance. Mrs. Varden drew back against a Jut of the wall, and shamelessly listened. "Pansy Blossom," greeted the youth, "the hours are long wheu you are not here." "I have been thinking," he contin ued, "that an elopement must be the solution. True love should not be de nied. It grieves me to see you suffer, and I " Mrs. Varden's patience could stand no more. "You dare," she burst out, "to plan an elopement with my daughter I You" But Vickie Interposed. "Mother," she reproached, "you would not let me marry Bruce." "Rather a thousand times Bruce," cried Mr. Varden, "than this pre sumptuous Oriental." "Then," agreed Vickie with alacrity, "I will send for Bruce." In the darkness KhIo's hand reached out to touch the girl's. v "Mother needn't know that It was an elovemnf. with Bruce which I sug rejtcd." ie fald. "Me, Pansy Biossom, Pm jour friend."
