Fierce. He knew he ought to know,
but couldn't for the Life of Him re-

"Well. Sir, why do Turkeys have No

Because they have their Necks

WASPER PEYTON was a stranger

most unpleasantly brought home
to him at every opportunity by
the good people of Oreville.
He was sweet tempered fellow, and
1t disturbed him nightly when his eff
forts at sociability were ignored. How
can l help it that there was trouble at
the works and that my predecessor
was fired?" he exclaimed rueSully to

Maria shifted. She had her opinion
of people who failed in appreciation of
her young master. Had she not come
all these weary hundred miles for the
sake Of his sunny smile?
But Maria did not know that most Of
Jasper's irritation was caused by the
house next door. No, not the house. 1t
was a pretty little frame dwelling EN-

rival. She was so undoubtedly pretty
that his nelghborly good morning had
unusual feryor.
And the girl-there was "a contemptu-
Gus curl on her lip, and her eyes flash
ed before she lowered her long lashes.
She passed on without u word.
Jasper stared after her in astonish-
ment and then cursed the custom that
some small towns have of aping city
conyentionalities. Later he found out
his mistake The girls name was Carl
ton, and her father was the man whose
dismissal had made room for Jasper.
There was a flush on the young mans
cheek as he realized that the girl held
him accountable for the change of fam
lily fortunes.
BY dint of carefully yelled inquiry
he found out much more. Mr.. Carl
ton, it seemed, had obtained an in
feror position in a town fifty miles
farther south. But as he hoped for a
better opening in the near future he
had delayed moving the family goods
and chattels There was much not

bloom through untoward frosts and
protracted drought. turtledOves that
whirred and cooed and summed them
selves on the fiat roof of the leanto
and the fine flock of turkeys. Marion
Carlton refused to part with one of
these. Had she not triumphantly
reared the entire Matching when the
spring winds, pip, rats and other enc
mics of turkeykind had dashed the
hopes of neighborlng raisers? If any
one was to feast on fat turkeys, lying
peacefully on snowy pillows Of mashed
potatoes with garlands of parsley
round their necks, it should be the
Carlton family. And as the Carlton
family had but two members, Marion's
will was generally law.
The frost had turned the scarlet sage
to black, and the vines no longer
screened the house next door. But
every falling leaf seemed only to add
to the rampant that the girls pride had
raised She was evidently a fAyorite
In the town, for in the evening the
young folks trooped to her door, and
through the partition walls came
bursts Of laughter and snatches of mu-
sic. That they all followed Marion's
example In leaving him strictly alone
was partly Jasper's fault. After the
first few rebuffs his free and easy
manner changed to one of aloofness.
Maria sighed as she noted the
change And it's the hard hearts
you're all after hayin'," she said as she
sat in her kitchen and listened to the
laughter from the house next door.
Just then Jasper dashed into the

-Tow can I count thy mercies up2

But ever through the stormest years
My peace was greater than my care.

'Ah, Biddy. If you a4hed for 1t
