''It will do no harm to propose, at
any rate. -
Tom wrote the letter, as his friend
had suggested, sealed it carefully, ad-
dressed it to Miss Margaret Blake and
gave it to Sander to deliver. Sander in
closed it in one giving full particulars,
and in due time Tom received the fol-
lowing reply,
Mr. Tom Nsiuwrighti
DEAR SIR-I have just finished reading your
proposal and my cousins pleasant account of
you, which he was SO good as to send with the
proposal. In reply, will say that ] agree to
consider myself your betrothed for period of
three years and to release You at the end of
that time, provided you conduct yourself dur
ing that time as a gentleman should toward
the lady whom he esteems highly but does
not expect to marry. l do not like endear-
ments, but understand that society is some
what exacting in regard to the behavior of en-
gagged people, and l shall try to SO conduct
myself that we may not be commented upon.

known that we are engaged simply for con-
venience. 1t will please me to have desirable
escort during my stay in town, and Cousin

know from experience that am not simply
angelicl Yours truly, MARGARET BLAKE.
Tom found this letter quite satisfac
tory and could hardly wait for the day
when he was to see Miss Margaret, or
Daisy, as her cousin called her and as
he liked TO think of her. A number of
his best friends knew of his good for
tune in finding a charming girl who
was willing to be engaged to him for
period of three years and to give him
his liberty at the end of that time.
"It will," he explained, mot deprive
me of my freedom in any sense of the
term In fact, it will give me greater
freedom can be pleasant with other
girls without their thinking that I am
making love, and even if I should fall
in love with one of them my engage
ment to Daisy will not prevent me from
explaining natters.to the other girl and
declaring my sentiments.
1t was really quite a nice arrange
ment, and Tom would not have had a
moments uneasiness before he met Miss
Margaret had he not overheard two Of
his friends talking about him one day
at dinner.

Wainwright would be so simple" said
one of them, Gas to go and engage HIM

He depended upon Ridgway's judg-
ment, understand, :" replied the other.
"But she is Ridgway's cousin, and
one is always blind to the defects Of
ones relatives. Besides did you ever
know Ridgway to be acquainted with
any girl who was not charming? All
girls are alike i'll his eyes He has no
more Judgment than Hottentot. -
"There is no one, p" replied the other
speaker, "whom I would rather see
caught than Tom Wainwright. He is so
fastidious Think what it would mean
to him to be obliged to escort an ugly
woman for three long years and see
Sander walking away with pretty Alice
Griggs p

1t was something he should never
know, for he did not care to have the
wife of another know that she came
nearer to his heart than any lady whom
he had ever met.
"Why don't you become engaged
again?' asked Sander.
81 have gone my limit in that direc
tion, replied Tom. eff I am party to
another broken engagement, shall be
subject to heavy fine. -
"You are in a bad fix, old fellow,
and that's fact. Still you might let
the next engagement run for the three
years allowed, and then perhaps you
would be better fixed financially, and
the fine would not trouble YOU
81 wonder how that would work. I"
Toms face frightened perceptibly. 81
would have meantime the money that
would otherwise be spent in the matri-
monial tax to apply toward the payment
of the fine, and it would be great
help out of present difficulties.
eff you could find some girl in whom
you could confide-some one who would
agree to dismiss you at the end of the
three years
81 should be in trouble if she did
not. When man breaks the engage
ment at any time, it is bad enough, but
if he does so after allowing it to run
three years the law has no mercy on
him. 1t would mean financial ruin. "
"Clarissa Pearce is a sensible sort of
grip
"Id rather be dead than be obliged
to marry her. She would never let me
off of her own accord. Besides she is
2S OF 30 years old. She would not make
such an arrangement unless she thought
me in earnest, for it would deprive her
of her pension.
81 don't understand.
"Don t you know that if a woman
receives no proposal of marriage be-
tween the twenty-ifth and thirtieth
years she receives an extra amount of
money on pay day which is called a
pension for the unprotected? This pen
sion is paid once in three years, after
the age of 80, to those who have not
rejected suitor since the last payment,
Even if could make up my mind to
act as Miss Clarissa S escort during the
next three years [ doubt if she would
be willing to consent to the arrange
ment, unless she meant to hold me to it
at the end Cf that time. y
81 had forgotten the pension law. 1t
would deprive Miss Clarissa Of two
payments. "
''And J. should be taking an awful
risk. No, Sander, it won t do. We must
think of something else"
For several minutes there was silence
between thsytwo young men, Then
Sander startled his friend by springing
to his feet with most exultant shout.

help you out of this scrape like magic.
I know the very girl" :"
"You do? Old boy, if you help me
now, I'll never forget it. y

"Have / seen her?''
"No; she lives III the country"
"Pretty?"
"Pretty as picture-graceful, tGo,

and no mistake, butt

"She has an awful temper. "
"That doesn't count may show
you an interesting case of Tanning of
the Shrew. 1t would add variety to my
humdrum existence. Really, believe l
should like it.
"Well, suppose you sit down and
write note explaining the situation
fully. Daisy hates anything like de-
ceit. :"
"Do you mean that I must tell her

period as long as the law allows that 1

THE CLOTHING OF CHILDREN.
Don't Make it Ridiculous.

wish that every mother pos
sessed artistic taste, at least so far
as the dress of her children is con-
cerned. Indeed it is not SO much "a
matter of money as of taste and
neatness, that makes the difference
between a well dressed person and
a dowdy.
l believe the children suffer be-
yond the comprehension of their
elders, from ill fitting, ill-made, or
out of date clothing. A friend told
me the other day that no one could
understand the suffering he had
undergone from being obliged,
when a child, to wear to school a
blue and white checked gingham
blouse, when other boys of his age
were wearing cloth jackets. With
the hope of getting jacket, he had
repeatedly made holes in his blouse
by putting it over sharp picket
fence, only to have it patched or
replaced by a new garment of the
same material and shape. He has
been careful to guard his own boys
against a similar experience.
A woman of most retiring
temperament said that she had
suffered agony when a child, while
wearing a dress of orange colOred
merino trimmed with rows of wide
black velvet.
A farmers wife once told me
that having no money to buy an
overcoat for her eight year old boy
and possessing no skill to make one
from material in the house, she had
obliged him to wear an out of date
Jacket of her own. The brave little
fellow came home in tears for
several days, but afterward endured
his suffering like martyr for the
rest of the winter. 1t seems To me
cruel to subject a sensitive boy or
girl to ridicule and its consequent
distress.
| am not an advocate of over
dressed children. | wish to see
them simply and neatly dressed
with enough conformity to the pre-
vailing style to prevent any undue
attention on account of Oddness.
"When | was a little GIRL" said
another friend, "it was the custom
in making children's clothing, to
allow for growth. Accordingly we
never had anything that fitted us
well until it was about worn out.
That seemed very ridiculous in our
family as there were several child
ren and if the clothes had been
made to fit each one, they could
have passed to the younger ones as
fast as outgrown and the necessary
economy would still have been
practiced."
Some one has said: "The con
sciousness of being we'll dressed
affords more comfort than the con-
solations of religion"
To be well dressed is to be pro-
perly dressed for ones occupation.
The boy who milks the cows in the
suit he wears to school, will soon
render it unfit for school, and will
find it of no especial comfort to
him in the COW yard. If he has
a suit. or at least overalls, to don
for milking, his self respect will in
crease rather than diminish when
ever he arrays himself for the cow
yard.
A mother who has a sense of
form and color, and certain
degree of initiative faculty, is
capable of dressing her children
well at comparatively small eX-
pense.-Country Gentleman.

HOW TO SUBSTITUTE FOR WHEAT

1t IS a COMMON error with many farm
ers to grow as few varieties Of produce as
possible and it is not of rare occurrence to
ind farmers, except for such vegetables
their attention betWeen four or five pro-
ducts, viz: wheat or rye, hay, oats, pota-
toes and possibly corn. Why bright, in
telligent farmerS should, year after year,
continue to sow crops which they know
there IS little or no profit in is difficult to
solve. Is it to be wondered at that grain
is Improbable with this condition of af-
talrS! Until M learn to watch the
markets and use more intelligence in the
selection of products, this overproduction
in certain lines must exist.
My method of planting 100 acres is as
follows: First estimate the required area
necessary for home consumption OF hay,
oats, corn, ~paSturage, ETC., which we will
say is 40 per cent. of available land. OF
the remainder, l would use % acres for
potatoes, 10 for wheat or rye, 10 for buck
wheat, . for cabbage, one each for tur-
nlpS, carrots, parsnips and celery. The
remaining 6 acres could be profitably de-
voted to the cultivation of berries which
under favorable circumstances bring
large returns
Many farmers err in not planting sufi-
cient cereals for home consumption, thus
being obliged to resort to the markets for
articles that could nave been produced at
a much smaller inquire. A farmer should
also use great care in the disposition of
his products Potatoes and apples are fire.
