 Why, whats this?'' asked the H. bTaTian, as the little lady of nine sum mers did not deign to speak.
 ''I owe it to you," sad the child
 What for?'' asked the librarian, still mors. surprised, for she had not seen the child for months.
 Fine on my book" said the child, still holding out the pennies.
 Why, you have no fine. don't be- lieve you get books here. dc you?'
 ''Oh, yes I do." said the little lady. and then she toId the last book she had read and related the incidents of he story. The librarian locked the n-atter up and found that the book was really charged to her.
 Well. every time papa gives me money to spend I'm going to give you some. He gave ne five csnts today" And the sp5aker showed her apprecia- ton Of the two cents which she had reserved for herself by chewing vigor- ously upon her mouthful Of gum.

litigation is likely to be the Anal out

The curbstone brokers, or at least
some of them. protested against the
action Of the board in declaring con-
tracts void and claimed that they were
not governed by the exchange. Other
brokers were likewise of the opinion
that the exchange had exceeded its
authority and threats were freely made
of resort to litigation.

can be induced to sell out to the pro-
moters. Much Of the money to finance
the big scheme will come from the
east. George F. Townsend, of Phila-

prospective company, but nearly all tho
other promoters are local people. At
