ofhis Contract, But VIII stick tott.
Contractor Michael Connolly, who is re-
constructing the Jackson VENUE sewer
from C-ommunipaw avenue to Bramhall
avenue, undertook a much larger task
than he bargained for. Mr.. Connolly said
that he is losing money on the job, but
will live right up to his contract.
The work was started ABOUT three
months ago on the ConamunipaW avenue
sewer. This job after much delay caused
by the weather was completed last Mon
day.
The street is now in a deplorable con-
distance of two feet and in other spots
distanceo f two feet and in other spots
much deeper. =.
The Traction Company has not vet laid
its eastbound track for fear that the track
will sink when cars are run over 1t, and
a serious accident result. The company
has decided to wait until the earth set
ties and then fill in the holes. 1t Is
thought thai it will be at least a month
yet before the track will be relaid.
The work Of reconstructing the jack
son avenue sewer has advanced about 100
feet. This sewer will no doubt be COM
pleted within another month. The resi-
dents hail this news with JOY, as many
have been complaining about the objec-
tionable odors which arise from the
trench. The atmosphere about two-thirds
Of the time is filed with nauseating doors
and the residents can find no relief. Con-
tractor Connolly said that he was sorry
that he had undertaken the work, but
that he would stick to it and complete the
job to the best of his ability.

GREENVILLE UP IN ARMS.
Complaints Against Making the Sec
tSon = Dumping Ground for Refuse.

Contractor Harrington is making him
self very unpopular in Greenville these
days because he is having the garbage
dumped in that section. The people haye
long suffered at the hands OF the garbage
collectors and are determined that II
must cease. Last summer complaints
were made that the refuse was not coli
iected. and hat it lay for weeks at a
time in the barrels in the front Of
houses. Now the people are to put up
with a dumping ground in that section.
For some time the refuse has been
dumped in the lots at the foot of both
Danforth ard Girard avenues. This the
people claim. and especially the property
owners, hurts the real estate business,
thai no property can be sold in that
vicinity because of it. One complainant
said that several men had been 10 see
him about buying property, but when
they learned that refuse was being de-
posted there they wouid not invest.
Others are wondering what they are go
ing TO do in the summer with the horrible
stencil which is sure TO result from the
refuse. There is talk about appealing to
the courts for relief. There is trouble
d brewing for the contractor. and unless
he finds another dumping ground there
will be a big fight.

Jupiter made her recite 1t all, "preeept

Mrs. Coffin thought 1t over for few
days, and then came to the conclusion
that Mr. Jenkins was right That was
In the little village. The idea was
placed before Geraldine, and when she
heard of Jupiter's proposal she smiled
n smile that made her mother look at
her twice. But Geraldine had the key
TO certain kinds of human nature which
was far beyond her years. She thought
she would like to go, and it was great

She tried no more of her subtle ways 10
disturb Jupiter, and the boys found a
change in her, which at once set their
former interest at naught.
"She amt no more fun" they all
agreed and they troubled her no more,

and passed her preliminary examina.

life's road lies before to choose what is
best and highest, to be lazy and Ian
guid. and not to reach the arm to grasp
the golden apple of Hesperides, is the
greatest wrong
1t was then that Geraldine, her color
slightly brighter and her head tritie
higher, would return to her seat and
write, "Jovi non placet'-"lt is not
pleasing to Jupiter"
There We're certain rare facts about
Geraldine that Jupiter Jenkins, in his
teachers enthusiasm had not noticed
One of these was that she was very
pretty girl. But If he had been imper-
vious to this fact there were others who
had not, and among those were some OF
the big boys in the school.
Geraldine was growing, and she was
now tall and 1.-the Of figure, with her
big blue eyes clearer and more express
i've, as she looked at people The true
soul of a rather designing maiden was
showing forth from them. She was
glad to receive attentions, and 1t smote
Jupiter hard when he observed that she
walked with one and then with another
in the still and balmy spring evenings.
Just why it smote him as 1t did Mr..
Jenkins never knew until few years
later.
But 1t did, and Geraldlne's face SEEM
ed to have framed itself into the center
of his thoughts. She REQUIRED to his
consciousness constantly, and when he
thought of these big boys he was truly
uncomfortable.
He had another conference with Mrs.
Coffin, In which he suggested that Ger
aldlne had better be kept In the house
and made to give closer attention to her
lessons. When he called her In reclta-
tinns be was also doing his best to

tions with extraordinary success. She
was one of the highest three out of a
large class. The veteran principal Of
the school knew human nature at a
glance. He wrote to Jupiter letter
which confirmed all that worthy had
said about the wild, nomadic Geraldine.
When Geraldine had finished her
course in the normal school she received
the highest commendation, and the old
principal happened to find a good place
for her in the same city where Jupiter
was making his way.
When Geraldine had come into his
office at the end Of the first quarter II
was the first intma ton that he had
received of her presence in the city.
She said she had come TO make pay
ment, and while she spoke poor Jupiter
was turning all sorts of ruddy colors.
