From Saturdays Daily.
From our exchanges we learn that a
new graft is being worked among the
farmers of nearby counties by a land
concern from Iowa. The farmer is in
duced to list his farm for sale with tn n
for four months at a certain sum per
acre. Then the contract is ingeniously
worded and specifies that when the COM
pany sells the land OF otherwise performs
its part of the agreement | will pay you
$500 per acre commission" In a rev
words the farmer agrees to give the COM
pany $500 per acre for nothing. All the
company agrees to do is to sell the land
for that amount. The agents of the
company say that it means a sale or no
commission, but the company maintains
that all it was to do is to 'stry and sell
the land 1t viii pay farmers to be
on the lookout for agents of this COM
pany. Ifsthe farmer signs the contract
he will be held by the company for ex-
actly what the contract calls for.-St

to the conscript in the moonlight by
the studio wall "She walked always
with those big eyes that saw nothing,

The conscript levied a contribution
on both gifts. for he prided himself on
being a good soldier.
Torpenhow spoke very little to Mai

he was very careful to attend to all her
wants, to get her compartment en-

the matter had been accomplished.

was better than looking after trunks
and a red haired friend who never
seemed to take any interest in her sur
roundings. But there seemed to be a
feeling in the air that she, Maisie, of
all people. was in disgrace.
Therefore she justified her conduct to
herself with great success till Torpen-
how came up to her on the steamer
and without preface began to tell the
story of Dicks blindness. suppressing
few details, but dwelling at length on
the miseries Of his delirium. He stopped

the studio door snapped behind her.
Dick thrust the letters into his pocket
as he heard the sound. "HellO, TOrp! Is

His voice had taken the peculiar fiat
