The Country for Roasting-Ears

From one truck farm a couple
of miles out from Brownsville, the
first roasting-ears of sugar corn
were sold in the city market on
April IS. The first crop, on about
ten acres, was marketed and sec
ond crop sowed on the same land.
From this second crop, the first
roasting-ears were sold in the city
market Sept. 1st. Both crops yield
ed abundantly and melted the
planter about $500 a bushel.
This enterprising planter is Frank
Champion, who when not occupied
with the cares ofthe city secretary
ship or of his brokerage business,
makes a side issue of his thriving
little truck farm, and delights in
driving out of afternoons to see
how it is progressing. Mr.. Cham
pion says he could easily raise an
other crop of roasting-ears on the
same land before Christmas, but he
will not tax the soil to that extent.
IH4c also has a fine cotton patch at
his place, which is yielding very
satisfactorily despite the boil wee
vii, and has raised quantities of
truck besides.

den OF the Tuileries bright with the
sunshine OF an autumnal day. Two
boys, seated In the grass near a path
not far from one OF the ponds, were
playing with turtle they had cap
tured.
The humble origin OF the elder, a
lad OF thirteen. was evidenced by
those physical signs which are usu-
ally associated with people of his
class; but the other, three years
younger. bore all the indications OF
gentle birth. His sire was a baron OF
the 'ancien regime" while Pierre's
father had been peasant, and his
widowed mother the faithful nurse OF
her who had lived but two months
after giving birth to the boy Jean,
whom Margot loved as her own

Presently there came along the
promenade a trio of court gallants.

Ing fashion, beruffied, bejeweled, and
perfumed. One Of them was a slen-
derby built young man, whose sharp
features, pale-blue eyes set closely to-
gether, thin lips, and weak chin, gave
ample proof of his nature and dispo-
sition.
A more striking contrast to the
younger boy could not we'll be imag-
ined. Yet the same blood ran in
their veins, for the newcomer was
Jeans half-brother. who had,
for some time past, been occupying
an unimportant position at court.
He espied the two boys before they
noticed him, so engrossed were they

'tinct seemed to tell 1t how to find a
way to the nearby pond.

pathway; and Etienne, stepping |
quickly over the grass, gave the tur-

plashing into the water
