"A Man Named
Smith"

r/EBULON SMITH dealt in real es-
Il tate at Arkville when there was
anything doing. When real estate
was dull he sold coal and wood, rent
ed houses and placed insurance His
career for 25 years had been an un-
nroken one, when two important
events o CURED. His good wife died and
was in the new edition to the
CEN had sold to tba +o,rr
himself, and the funeral was hardly
over when he received news that a
distant relative had died and left him
a legacy of $4,000 in cash. A few
weeks later, when the money came,
Zebulon Smith astonished Arkville
and the surrounding country by de-
claring that he was going abroad. He
not only declared his intentions, bu.
he packed his trunk and left 5000
people holding their breath in amaze
ment.
Mr.. Smith spent three or four DAYS
IN New York before sailing. He had

hardly registered at a hotel when he
observed stranger looking him over
with apparent interest, and later ON
TINS stranger found opportunity TO
introduce himself as MIR. Carter. a
resident of Plum Creek, Wis. Mr..
Carter stuck to Mr.. Smith like a burr
Tor the next 26 hours and proved
himself good companion. He was
laxative, jolly and open-handed. and
M. Smith was regretting that thew
must part, when Mr.. Carter an

run over to Europe on the same
steamer. Some men become old
friends In day, as it were. 1t was
SO IN this case. Mr.. Carter's business.
when at home, was shingles, laths
and clothespins, with wooden tooth
picks as side issue. What partic-
ular incident was responsible for his
trip abroad he did not state. In
qeed, 1t was evidently a weie-hty Sc
cret, and one he felt he must guard
with is life.
In their confidential talks NJ
smith would tell of his early strug-
gle to get ahead-the lodges prac.

his domestic happiness-his homes Of

return. He kept nothing back. In
return, Mr.. Carter would tell of 90

-of earning his first dollar, and final
~ being able to sell the public laths
and shingles by the car load. He had
also enjoyed few family quarrels.
and had found the world cold and
heartless; but his story always
stopped right there, and Smith was
unable to tell whether Mrs. Carter

THE LESSON OF THE LEAF.

The frost-tinged. golden leaves sgain
Come sailing to the sod,
And Autumn walks the dappled plain
With rustling sandals shod.
When one surveys a single leaf.
So tinted. vedned and fair.
The marvel is that life so brief
Should have such marks of care.
And wonder more. great Nature seems
To be In very haste,
When most her work with glory CLEANS,
To yield 1t up to waste.
For robbers from the frosty stars
Steal down to loose its hold.
And swift winds from their Northern bars
Break through and steal the gold.
But yet In spite of wind and frost
And slight OF Autumn's sun,
The leaf it's mission nath not lost,
Nor left its work undone.
1t duly spread its grateful shade;
Its breath made pure the air;
lis building In the branch is laid.
In strength and fiber fair.
Though gone, It lives in Fancy's eyes,
Its grace y n my heart;
Here, too. its treasured lesson lies
ARD Will not soon depart.
When 1 my clasp on life shall yield,
Twill make the parting sweet
To know that 1 have held shield
Where suns and tempests beat:
To know that have builded. too,
Ihough small should seem the gain,
Something OF goodness where 1 grew.
That may long years remain:
To know, when I cannot endure.
That still earth's atmosphere
Is made more vital, sweet and pure.
For my brief staying here:
That when L loose my trembling hold
On ufe's unsteady spray.
Still all the seasons dnwrought gold
Shall with me pass away.
