A poET.s GEM OF a GIRL.



He Nearly Lost Her When He sprinsfed
Whale OH ON Fasorite He'd of Roses
New Jersey is proud of a poet who
has house In that state and publishes
In New York, and the poet himself is
proud of a gem of a servant lie came
near losing her the other day. This
particular girl came from an old whal-
ing town in Maine three years ago,
and she has been in the poets house
hold ever since. She made no acquain-
lance among the neighbors' girls, and
she had no steady company. In other
respects she was worthy of the poets
concentrations. During the three years
that she has worked for Mr.. Poet she
has never asked for vacation to visit
her old home.
II never think OF the place" said
Mary. ''for if did / am afraid that
would get homesick.
1t was tilrough the poets own care
lessness last week that he nearly lost
Mary. There is thrifty bed of roses
in front of the poets house that is his
fad and pride. Destructive bugs and
worms. whichever they might have
been, swooped down on that bed q
week ago and threatened to destroy it.
The poet took advice and, as conse-
quence, invested in whale oil that was
warranted to kill bugs at long range.
As he sprinkled the bushes with the
whale oil a light breeze carried the
odor Of it back to the kitchen, where
Mary was working Both Mr.. and
Mrs. Poet noticed that Mary's mind
seemed to be wool gathering while she
was serving them at luncheon. She
mixed the orders that were given to
her, and she made Mrs. Poet unhappy.
Before dinner was served Mary raped
at Mrs. Poets door.
''Come in. Mary" said her mistress.
"Are you ill?"
mo, marm," said Mary, ill at ease,
land don't know why it is, but-but
but"
"Well. but what?"
"Why, marin, I'm homesiek. I've
been thinking of Maine all day. There
seemed to be something in the air that
suggested home. If don't get over IL
tomorrow shall have to go home.
It's in the air to-day"
Mrs. Poet summoned her husband
from his study and told him OF the
calamity that threatened the house
hold.
''Dear, dear; that's too bad. How
can we spare Mary? HomesiclS, Ell
poor girl? Strange. too. for she ha.
been here contentedly for three years
| Said it was in the air? Wait minute
BY Jove! have it. She was right
1t was in the air. It's that whale OF
| on the rose bushes.
Mr. Poet played the garden hose OF
the rose bushes for an hour after din
sner, and Mrs. Poet scattered lime neal
the kitchen. Mary's homesicknesswa
gone the next day.
at was just something in the air,
she said, and I'm sorry, marin, that
troubled YOU"
Half of the Poets rose bushes ar
stripped of leaves, but Mary remained
IN. Y. Sun.
