Luther Ben Keep!"
"Criclly, you don't!'
"Cricky, do. Well cut down cher
ry tree!"
"Hooray!" began Luther Ben, and
then with the shout midway to the
rafters, it changed to groan. Luther
Ben was the practical twin. "Where
you goin' to get your cherry tree?" he
inquired, witheringly.
Slowly, defeated Hannibal recrossed
his Alps and sat heavily down in the
empty chip basket. His face was dole
full.
"1-never thought" he muttered
There amt cherry tree on this
farm, so, 'Nibble Keep-not a single!
We can cut down an apple tree or a
pear tree or the weepin' mulb'ry Can
then l guess she would weep!)-or we
can" Luther Ben introduced his lips
to HannibaPs ear and whispered the
rest shrilly-"cut down one O. Dan'l
Sears cherry trees"
why, Luther Ben Keep! You
OluSh Oil ONCIs NO, We can
celebrate any way but honest, same as
George Washington did. You don't
s'pose he'd We cut down anybody's
cherry tree but his pas, do you? I
should smile"
This nice bit of ethics was lost on
Luther Ben. He had his own doubts as
to the eminent responsibility of cut
ting down ones own fathers cherry
tree. Rnt Hannibal was indisputable.
Just then the door opened and Black
Auntie's shiny face wedged through
the crack and regarded the Keep twins
indignantly.
"Ain' dem right smart liz white
trashes?" she cried, in scorn. G'way,
dis ole auntie d rather sem mig
ger chillen after her chips. 'nough

Luther Ben hurriedly gathered a
handful of chips, but Hannibal sat
down in the basket unmoved.

Monterey High School d Going

The school at Monterey opened
on Monday under quite favorable
circumstances. 1t was d bright
sunshinY morning, and teachers as
well as pupils had taken on good
supply Of both, before beginning
the day and appeared to be very
happy and eager to begin the work
of another session. Brightness and
sunshine are very necessary IN
school. and we would suggest that
as the secord story of the building
is not now in use that surplus
from the many pretty days we hope
to have before all the leaves fall,
be stored away and issued out IN
instailments during the bleak,
cherries winter months.
In Prof. Stout's room. as starter
there were 20 pupils, in Miss Birds
room, the intermediate grade 10
and in Miss Clara Gibson's depart
ment, the primary grade Fl.
From the county we found III
attendance, Misses Pattie and Mol
lie Mauzy of Crabbottom. Misses
Lena and Bessie Seybert, and Frank
Wagner of Strait Creek and Miss
Mollie Kramer of Crabbottom.
The total of Sc on the first day
will likely be doubled before the
beginning of October. 1t should
be, at least.
Parents should remember that
they do their children an irrepara-
bile injury when they keep them
from school. The school age is
short, the actual time spent at
school quite short, and every day a
child is kept from school he is
cheated or cheating himself out OF
certain portion Of his valuable
capital with which he is to COM
mence his life work. Remember
this, and do not keep your children
at home for a trivial matter. THEIR
TIME IS IMMENSELY VALUABLE. Far.
ents OF the county contemplating
sending their children hele for this
session should lose no time in hay
ing them enter. We think we can
safely predict that the most success
full term that Monterey has known
in many years will be the one now
just entered upon. Board in prl-
yate families can be secured at a
reasonable price.

Jacob K Warner Adjudged Insane

Mr. Jacob X Warner, who with
his family lives near Monterey, was
on last Saturday adjudged a lunatic
and on Tuesday, by Sheriff Arbo-
ga,t, assisted by Henry A. Slayen
taken to the Western State
Hospital at Staunton for treatment.
As is always the case unter such
circumstances, and especially so in
Dir Warmers case, because of his
having to leave his wife and chill
dren.some of whom are quite young,
it was a pitiable sight to witness
his departure for the hospital and
he and his family have the sincere
sympathy ofthe entire community.
We trust that Mr. Warmers I'M
paired state of mind may prove to
be only temporary and that under
the skillful treatment administered
at the hospital he will soon be re.
stored to health, and returned to
his family.
1t seems, from what can be gath
cred from his conversation. that
Mr. Warmers mind became unsettled
on the question of saDcitification.
The ministers of the county who
hold solely to it, and preach it ex-
clusively, have, Mr. Warner 80 states,
produced in his mind an uncertain
ty as to his standing with regard
to the question, telling him at one
time that he was "sanctitied" and
at another time he was not.

MACARONl WHEAT GROWING
Successful Experiments In Sew
eral Western States
Secretary Wilson of the Agri-
cultural department has accom-
plished another valuable thing
for the farmers of this country
by the introduction of macaroni
wheat, the growth of which
has met with great success in
some of the western states. The
secretary, in his report for 1901
stated that the imports of
macaroni exceeded 100000
pounds annually, worth nearly
sS0O,00O. The product is made
from a special class of wheats,
which had never been given a
thorough trial in this country.
He secured quantity of the
wheats and distributed them in
the Dakotas and in Kansas and
Nebraska. TO his qualification
their cultivation was a COM
.plete success.
They yielded one-third to
oae-half more per acre than
any other wheats grown side by
side with them, and when other
wheats were almost a complete
failure in the Dakotas the
macaroni varieties produced a
very good yield of excellent
quality. The yield is from one
third to one-half more than that
of any other standard wheats in
the same locality. The macar-
oni wheats can be grown sue
cessfully in localities where it
was not considered possible to
grow any kind of wheat before,
owing to the light rainfall.
Over 100000 bushels were
produced last year, and the av-
erage this year has been large
ly increased.
The demand for this wheat
has exceeded the supply, the
macaroni made from the wheat
being of the highest quality.
Besides there is a good market
abroad for the wheat. The inn
Iportation of macaroni has al
ready largely decreased, so that
the success of the industry is
assured. While this wheat is
chiefly used for macaroni,
breld is made from it which is
regarded as very nutritious and
oalatable. Philadelphia Press.
