newer sections of the state reports the
arrival of settlers, well supplied with
stock and farm implements. They
are coming from all over the central
west and northwest, especially from
Iowa and southern Minnesota. One
important factor about the newcomers
is the fact they are equipped for farm

agricultural work and the greater
majority are supplied with sufficient
funds to get started in comfortable

a. After all the talk, congress
enacted no postal legislation at the
last session and the newspapers still
survive. An occasional fake magazine
is put out of commission by the Off
Gals and the situation for the news
papers is not as serious as some
editors fear. The editors of country
.weeklies are in little danger compared
to the publishers of dailies. If the free
county service is maintained, even an
increase in the rate on the other pa

matter. Free service to all county

tors of the weekly press, and means

CHAPTER V.

The Hon. and Rev. Wilfred Elliotsen
took possession of the living of Great
Wilton, having been appointed to it by
Lord Avon. And the Rev. Rye Baum
garten remained, as before, at Little
Whitton.
Changes took place. They take place
everywhere. The most notable one was
the marriage of Mr.. Baumgarten.
That he had been grievously disappoint-
ed and annoyed at the appointment of
another to the living, which he had been
led to suppose would be his, was a bitter
fact. He set 1t down to the caprice of
great men. and strove to live down the
sting. The chief difficulty lay in his con-
templated marriage; and he deliberated
with himself whether he ought for the
present to abandon it, or to carry it out.
He decided upon the latter course. 1t is
probable that he deemed he could not in
honor withdraw now, and II is more than
probable that, once having allowed him.
self to cherish his hopes and his love, he
was not stole enough to pu: them from
him again.
Mrs. Dane gave permission readily. As
long as she lived and was with them her
small income would augment theirs. And
within a month of Mr.. Baumgarten's dis
appointment, he and Edith became man
and wife.
"You do quite right" warm-hearted lit
