a thought. 1t was just Betty herself
that he wanted, but he didn't dare say
SO.
Now Betty had another failing, not
uncommon among American girls not
old enough thoroughly to understand
that Yankee husbands are the best In
the world, and that was firm belief
that the ideal condition In married life
would be that which would come from
husband who was a combination of
Englishman and English army officer.
The colonies are younger over there
said Betty to herself, "and they are
all OF aristocratic family, and oh
well, Englishmen are just too lovely
for anything"
The summer colony at LOwland Glen
was unusually large that season. There
We're punches OF swell doings, as the
slangy Yale counsln of Betty would
put 1t. The army officers from Fort
Sherman were much In evidence. and
one young captain In particular was
very much In evidence In the vicinity
OF Miss Betty Rawlins. Betty saw the
evidence clearly, and how she did wish
that the president would retire some
few hundreds OF superior officers so
that Roy Lanyard could tack the alb
breyiation Col" to the front part
OF his name
One day there was excitement at
Lowland Glen. Mrs. Calumet had in
vited two Englishmen, one Of them an
army officer, to spend the month with
them at their summer home. The
news reached Betty the morning after
the arrival Of the Calumet's two
guests. Twenty young women had
told her about It. Let the girls alone
for spreading news of this kind. And

''one OF the Englishmen Is colonel in

last" she murmured to herself.
The next afternoon Betty met the
Englishmen at the Dexter Country
Club. Her heart futtered little as
the younger of the two men-the other
was old and out of the running-was
introduced to her. Colonel Reginald
Southcote was his name. 1t fairly
rang OF aristocracy and militarism.
Betty knsw that he was simon-pure

Of his name, his accent and his clothes
which didn't ut.
For the next week Colonel Reginald
Southcote was Betty Rawlin's shadow.

A Historic Lemon.

Who ever thinks OF connecting such
commonplace article of diet as the
lemon with the romantic history of Ill
fated Anne Boleyn? Yet indirectly she
was the cause of Its first Introduction
into England and so into popular no.
tice Henry VIII. gave such splendid
fensts and pageants in honor Of the
coronation of Anne and OF their pre-
ylous nuptials as had seldom been
accorded to queens of the blood royal.
These klngly entertainments were in
turn followed by the great civic feasts
of London, for which the whole world
was searched for delleacies, TO add TO
the splendor.
At one such banquet, graced by the
presence of the royal pair, lemon was
introduced as an elegant novelty. To
an epicure such as Henry the acqulsi-
ton of Il castle In France would have
proved less acceptable, and such was
the importance attached to the dis
eoyery-so says an old biographer-
that special record was made OF the
fnct that the cost of this precious
lemon was six silver pennies.

Meanwhile bewildering rumors We're
floating around concerning the strange
lady, such as that she was a private
detective; that she was man In wo-

In her bag and was going TO fire the

She did not emerge from her room

When she reached the telephone box

1t is a pleasure to note the many
Improvements being made at the
present time in our little city.
Judging from the present activity
on the part of a large number of
our residents it will be but few
years until Crested Butte will be
counted among the pretty towns of
the state. 1t is only within the last
two years that people have learned
that lawn grass and flowers of many
varieties can be propogated sue
cessfully at this altitude. 1t is
worth the while of every property
owner to benutify his premises, not
only for his own good, but for the
good of the whole community.
The improvements which ure now
being made are not along this line
alcne. Many buildings, which
have for long time been in need
of new paint and shingles, are re-
ceiviug them These things added
to the neat and clean condition of
the streets and yards gives the
town a splendid appearance. Let
the good work so on. 1t has been
said many times that Crested Butte
is a coal mining town and that for
that reason it cannot be expected
to be pretty place. We need no
longer have this erroneous idea
With the splendid natural beauty of
our surroundings, there is no rea-
son why the "Buttes" should not
be noted for being one of the most
beautiful spots in picturesque Col
orado, rs well as for being one of
the most active mining camps in
the state. The new sidewalks now
being constructed are not the least
among the improvements. Now
let us demolish the old partially
burnt and totally dilapidated ed
i6ces which disfgure some of our
streets and then the visitors who
will come to US this summer, as
they do every year, will have moth
ing of which to complain with re-
ference to the beauty of the town.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
What The Eastern
Investor Wants.

The average business man,
wherever he lives and in whatever
undertaking he engages, is per-
fectly willing to take n business
risk in making an investment.
But in looking into mining he
sometimes seems to imagine that
ordinary rules of business are sus-
pended and do not apply in the
purshase of mines or mining stock.
And Judging from the manner in
which many such operations are
conducted this supposition seems
we'll founded. But the eastern
man with money who is asked to
invest nowadays is taking a new
tack. He does not want to lie as
sured that he is going to make 100
percent on his investment in a few
months. He merely wants to know
that the money he does invest will
be judiciously expended in the de-
velopment of the property repre-
sented; that the chances of divi-
dends with such development are
good and that he is making an in
vestment in which his legal rights
will be respected by an honest
management. With these factors
assured he is willing to put money
into mining or mining stocks. he
sometimes needs to be told that the
laws of Colorado afford ample Sc.
curity to the minority stockholdeI
and there is no danger of being
frozen out if he cares to contend
for his rights.
What eastern investors complain
OF most frequently is their inability
