of good size. The apple men of this
county say that the drouth has not hurt
the apple crop this year. They say that
apples are as large and of better flavor
than last year and that the trees are not
so heavily loaded as in former years.
The grapes were damaged some by the
dry weather and the crop is not as large
as expected and the fruit is not OF as
good favor as last year. The water
melon crop is fine this year. Last year
the melons were small and not of good
flavor, but this year they are extra
choice.

Something might happen. A dray
might get in front of the car and de

Il don't mean impatient in that

seeing you at last have known men
kick because their wives kept them five
or ten minutes or so beyond an ap.

will ever find me complaining. just

"But the train doesn't start until

Enthusiastically. 1T won't seem like five

why can't you say what you've got
to say now? 1t will be at least three
quarters of an hour before anybody
gets home"
"All right, ! WILL" said Wilmot, and
he whispered in her ear. She drew
back and laughed and said that she
didn't believe it, and besides, he had
told her that before, so that it was stale
news. "Is that all you have to say"'
she continued.
"That comprehends it, but there's

nection that you might like to hear
Just in order TO get an idea Of the CON
dition I'm in"
But you win get over 1t after VIC

Wilmot packed his suit case that
night and saw to his razors, so that
he could eat his breakfast and rush out
in the morning without any unneces-
sary delay. He prides himself on be-
Ing able to wake up at any minute
that he likes, and he set his mental
alarm clock for six, but for fear of ac-
cidents he also borrowed one of the
everyday pickeled variety from his
Iandlady and set that at six o'clock,
after carefully testing 1t and regulate
ing 1t by his watch. In the morning he
sprang out Of bed with horrible fear
that he had oversight, and, looking at
the nickeled timepiece, found that it
was 4;45.
For a few moments he stood, with
heavy eyelids, drowsily considering the
ACCESSIBILITY of going back to bed and
trusting TO the alarm. Then he dis
missed the weak thought and stag
gered to his bath That woke him
up aud he shaved and dressed in a lei
surely manner aud gent back to his
room and looked at the clock 1t was
I5:15. He had thought it must have
been six at least.
Raising the window shade he looked
lntot the street, hoping to see the yellow
glare Of the gas lamps contending with
the light Of dawn, but as far as ap-
pearance went II might have been mid
night, so he pulled down the shade
Rgain and tried toread. The book, how

In his chair. He awoke with a start
to look al his watch, and found that
he had not yet put It on.
