Story of a Par sol.

In the history of the umbrella is told
a story of a beautiful fringed green
silk parasol Of the time Of the French
Restoration.
One summer afternoon more than
seventy years ago two pleaSant-looking
people sat in rented chairs in the
Champs watching the passers-by and.
enjoying the beautiful day. The gen
tleman looked as if he might be a pros
porous tradesman; the young woIna
vas beautifully dressed and very at
tractive in appearance.
When they rose to go away the ge1-
tleman found that he had ne money.
The woman who owned the chairs
stormed and scolded, and denounced
them as swindlers. until, to pacify her,
the gentleman took the lady's parasol,
an exquisite affair of green silk. fringe,
and with a rosewood handle. and gave
1T to her. He handed her one of the
lady's yellow gloves also, and said:
Keep the parsol as n pledge of what
| W you, and do not give it up to any
one unless he shows you the mate to
that glove"
Then be and the lady walked away
across the Place de In Revolution and
the Boulevard de la Madeleine. Sud
denly rain began to fall. There were
no carriages passing. The couple hur-
ried into Il doorway.
Immediately the concierge Of the
house came out and invited them into
his office. He gave them chairs. and
offered them, if they did not wish to
wait until the rain was over. the loan
OF his fine green-serge umbrella. The
gentleman accepted these attentions
gratefully, and he and the lady made
their way through the ain under the
borrowed umbrella.
An hOur later a foOtman in livery re-
turned to the good-natured concierge
his umbrella, with II gift OF several
bank-nOtes and the compliments of the
Due de Berri, nephew of the king.
Then going to the Champs EIysees
the fOotman sought OFT the ungraciors

Bland was born on a Kentucky farm
in 1885. His father died when he was
Z, his mother a few years later, but
the boy, dependent on his own re-
sources, worked his way through
school. He managed to get an academic
training and then taught school in Ken
lucky and Missouri. In 1866 he went to
California and spent ten years teaching
school, studying law, practicing law
and fighting Indians. In 1866 he re-
turned to Missouri and in 1868 settled
on a farm at Lebanon. his present

having been defeated in the landslide Of
