yes, sir" resumed the Dakota farm
or as the crowd Of agricuturists seated
themselves round little table--''yes,
sir We DO things 81 rather stable

big farms start ont in the spring and
pillow Il straight furrow until autumn.
Then he turned round aud harvested
back We have some big farms up

the mortgage was due Mt one end be-

everybody goodby."
"Where was he goingY'
lie was going half way across tho

"Sercndipity."

| This word is coinage of Horace
! Walpolo's. Writing about Il discovery
he had made in connection with his
picture of Blanca Capcllo. he says:
This discovery | made by tails
man. which Mr.. Chute calls The Sortes
Walpolian9. by which | find every
thing | want, n pointe nominee. wher-
ever | dip for IT, This discovery in
deed Is almost of that kind which 1
call serendipity, very expressive
word, which, as | have nothing better
TO tell you. | shall cndeayor 70 explain
to you, You VIII understand it better
by the derivation than by the defini-
ton | once read a silly fairy tale call
cd The Three Princes of Serendip.'
As their hiGhncsscs Travelled they were
always making discoveries, by acct
dents and sagacity, of things which
they were not In quest Of For In
stance. one Of them discovered that q
mule blind Of the right eye had trav-
clcd the same road lately because the
grass was eaten only on the left side,
where IL was worse than on the right.
Now do you understand serendipity?
One of the most remarkable instances
Of this accidental sagacity tor you
must observe that no discovery of the
thing you are looking for comes under
this description was of my Lord
Shaftesbury, who, happening to dine
at Lord Chancellor Clsrendons, found

which her mother treated her at Ia

eighth street, you see,. and / shall
| cheer them up
Leave care behind, all those who e,i-
ter here" he murmured. as K ne were
reading an Inscription.
The girl laughed in a pleased way.
Excellent. 4 public sympathizer is
really what we need | believe as
many people fail from lack OF sym
pathy and encouragement as from lack
Of ability"
She had grown suddenly earnest, and
her eyes filled with tears. Hazard
leaned toward her in real distress.
80 silly of me- she began, with n
little shake in her voice but there
have been some rough places-places
where Mrs. Lofty, for instance, has
looked on from her luxurious life and
said; i hope you'll get on all right.
Goodhy. dear" aud left me with lone
illness and encouragement eating my
heart, and have felt that in my House
OF the Loving Heart | should like to
have it different"
The old man in the next seat shifted
himself around SO as TO get n better
view of the girls face, but neither OF
the young people noticed him, and she
began her description once more.
"These bedrooms are the best in the
house | intend them for my poor
friends Still, have INDUCED in small
economies. Now. for instance, in these
rooms and with Il wave of the hand
she ushered him into another magma
ry suit-"thc appointments, though very
comfortable, are less luxurious. In
these | shall install my rich friends
when they visit me-
An unmstakahle chuckle escaped
from the old gentleman, and Hazard
and Miss Sherwin turned in his direc-
ton in surprise. But he was bowling
to the occupant of belated carriage,
all unconscious apparently Of their ex-
istencc.
Il shall entertain good deal for my
poor friends give them II chance to
meet interesting people and get out or
the ruts of their workaday lives" Miss
Sherwin resumed. but the rich ones
her eyes were dancing mischicvously
~ shall ask only on ordinary occa-
sons when | am having simple, whole
some dinners that won't make them
discontinued with their lot"
They looked at each other and broke
into long and merry laughter. Ilaz-
ards worldllness had vanished like n
cloud.
ITS a great idea, sweetheart" he
said softly. "and I'd like to work TO
make IL come true. Would You let me
do YOU think"--
But the bushes were so violent this
time that he got no further, and be-
sides the old gentleman was standing
before them.
81 am Jasper Clark he said simply,
and ut that name they both stared mt
! him in amaZemcnt Il know you'll for
give an old man for listening" Then
with bow he continued whimsically /:
II should very much like the pleasure
of your company nj dinner'-and he
made u gesture toward the Milliouaires'
club over the way. "You see. the time
may come when | shall want to enter
that quiet little door on Fifty-eighth
street" And he glanced with kindly
eyes az the future mistress of the
House of the Loving Hearg.

Milwaukee News: An ordinance
20 levy II tax upon the poles erected
in the streets of Milwaukee by tele-
phone, telegraph, electric light and
street railway companies has been
introduced in the common council
by Alderman Stiglbauer, and rec
commended for passage by the ju-
dietary COMMITTEE, to which it was re-
ferred. The proposed ordinance pro-
vides for tax Of 81 upon each pole
with a croasarm, and for an added
tax of ten cents for each additional
crossarm. That is measure that
should be passed, offering, as it does,
opportunity to the city to levy tax
upon public-service corporations
that escape paying taxes to the mu-
nicipality through the license-fee
system Of taxation adopted by the
state and which eXempts them from
taxation by the municipality.
