sions of James r. Keene today are val
ued at $4,000 Taking the Castleton
Stud into calculation, about 81 200, 900 is
invested there. The product of the stud
in one season yielded 1922. 900. Even if
it needs replenishment frequently there
is still left large margin of profit and
the question as to whether racing in
America pays is answered in the af-
firmative by the gentlemen above al
luded to.

DOES RACING PAY
Read This and It Will Help to An
swer the Question.

New York. Dec 23-It will be pleas
ant news to friends of James r. Keene
when they realize that the famous Cas-
Teton Stud, where nearly all of the
Keene racers for the last few years
were bred, is now regarded as a verita-
bic gold mine. So valuable has high
class horsefiesh become under Jockey
club control of racing that Mr.. Keene

I wish she would look into the fire al.

But do make it eighteen. Phyllis, =
said !. soberly.
1 took hold of her arm and turned
her round SO that she was facing me.
but she still held her head down ana
could only see her eyelashes. Phyllis
has long eyelashes.
And you'll marry me, Phyllis?" l
whispered. 1 don't know whether
raised my voice interrogatively or not
1 hadn't the same control over my
voice that 1 had the other seventeen
times.
Phyllis looked at me with a funny
little smile. She never will take me
seriously.
Il suppose this will make a new cli-
max" she said.
But her looks belied her words and
for once I was bright enough to see.
NO I replied, as distinctly as my
throat would let me, this is not a
climax. This is a beginning. st.

Q. HOPE JONES.
He Delivers a Lecture in the Interest
of Truth.

Citizens of Frenchman's Corners: For
some days past it has been known to
you that would arrive on this date to
deliver my celebrated lecture on
Truth" and the freight train which
reached your picturesque town two
hours ago had me on board.
1t is needless to say that 1 am more
than delighted to behold such an out
pouring of citizens. You have outpour-
ed to the number of thirty-five, which
includes several children in arms, and
though the collection to be taken up at
the close of the lecture may not amount
to cent apiece, shall throw my whole
soul into my talk just the same. / am
not of those who ride about the country
in palace cars and demand extravaganza
sums for appearing on the platform.
On the contrary the bumpers of any
freight train are good enough for me,
and If get one square meal per day
l am satisfied.
will begin my lecture by asking you
what is Truth? There can be but one
reply. Truth consists in not telling d
lie, even if you lose money by it. There
