CHAPTER XVI.
Ernest Hears the Truth.

Arnold hailed a hanson and was
driven 10 the Lyceum club. There
he found dear old Mrs. Buckley. who
was engaged In writing notes TO var
ious intimate friends and then tearing
them up.
"Oh. dear, oh, dear" she moaned.

This love affair of Ernests will drive
me mad, and besides | can't remem-

Never mind the jewels at home.
said Arnold. Il think Ernest has
found one that Is priceless"
do you mean this-gypsy?"
Yes. She is a most charming
young woman and I honor Ernest for
his choice. ! would advise you to at
once write her note inviting her
out to Grangeworth. During her stay
there We may all observe her at close
range and form our final opinions"
Ernest is on his way TO see her
now" she said. IF | write note
1t will reach her while he is there"
Mrs Buckley placed implicit faith in
Arnold's Judgment. and II was with
an air OF relief that she penned
most cordial note inviting Isis" TO
visit her at .Grangeworth. the country
estate OF the BIckley's I'm Surrey.
"Ieisv Receives Ernest.
At the moment she was writing Ii
Ernest entered the house OF mys-
terry" over which Isis" presided.
Hello, old darling!" he exclaimed
as he burst into the consulting room.
j Il told you never 10 come TO see
me during business hours" said the
girl with assumed severity.
II know" replied Ernest, somewhat
crestfallen.
Il am glad you dlsobeyed me-" she
murmured.
Really" exclaimed Ernest, his
courage returning.
"You are In love with me. aren't
you, Ernest?" asked Eleanor. She had
made up her mind to tell her fance
Just how she felt toward him.
"In love with you? Well, rather"
gushed Ernest, as he advanced to-
ward her.

replied Eleanor. The girls manner as
she said this convinced Arnold that
she was not In love with Ernest And
then he kept thinking over and over
again that she was most extraordln-
airy young woman-just the sort he
would have chosen for wife II he
had not passed into the days of bache-
lorhood.

get from the girl more OF her hypo-

Arnold in tone that seemed start

this with an air OF authority, but

TREES ON ABANDONED FARMS

q ORPORATIONS and private citizens
- throughout New England are beginning to
realize the opportunities which that region offers
for profitable forest planting. This year about
2soo acres have been planted in the six New Eng
land States by private citizens. In addition,
number Of water companies have adopted forest
policy The largest plantation of this character
which comprises over 1000 acres, belongs TO the
Metropolitan Water and Sewerage Board OF Chm
ton, Massachusetts,
One of the most important phases of refores-
tation in New England is that Of planting aban-
doned farms and other waste land, which at pres
ent are bringing no income In Massachusetts this
waste land amounts to ten per cent. OF the total
area of the State, while the latest reports in
Rhode Island show 228 abandoned farms. 1t is
this type of land which is now being planted.
Rich men sec good investment, and number
of them have planted tracts of at least so acres
each this year, with the intention of increasing
the size of the plantations annually.
The owner in Massachusetts, who started
white pine plantation of O. acres this year, ex-
poets to plant so acres annually for the next ten
years while others intend to plant tracts of vari-
Gus sizes ranging upwards OF 200 acres apiece
next spring.
White pine is, of course, the species most gen
erally planted, but other species which make ex-
ceent growth and are being used more and more
are Norway spruce, for timber and pulpwood
chestnut for telegraph poles, posts, ties and lum-
Der; red oak for piles and ties; black locust for
fence posts, and sugar maple for variety OF
products
It is not only on these tracts of waste land that
planting is beginning TO play so important part.
The practical farmer now realizes that the cheap
est and best way to get the special wood products
which he needs on his farm, is by planting the
trees. He realizes too, the protective value OF
plantations which serve as shelterbelts and wind

A ser on HIGH-cLAss Candidates..

M . WONDER the Smyrna Times is doing
little justified growing in the political
barnyard OF Kent county. The town of Smvrna
has been honored with a considerable number of
nominations on the political tickets and the
Times reloices in the fact that they are all spen-
did citizens. Rightly does the Times saw that If
all the nominations in the State were as good as
those that have been made of Smyrna residents
the State would be in no peril of suffering
through the lack of competent officials.
Indeed, judging by the candidates from
Smyrna, we no reason why even the
ducks and brakes in ancient Duck creek
should not Join in an anthem of praise Of
the Smyrna candidates for office, for indeed the
nominees are good men. Smyrna more or less
politically neglected in the past, has its share of
the candidates. and it could have had still another
if Mr. Walter O. Hoffecker had consented to take
the nomination for acknowledgements on the
Republican ticket.
The Times points out that on the Republican
ticket are Mr.. A. +. Jardine for the Legislature,
and Kent will not have a man more qualified for
the position; Mr. Edgar Spruance, for register Of
wills, deserved nomination, for Mr. Spruance
will record deeds with the same care that he re-
cords orders for plum puddings, and Mr. John P.
Hudson, for Levy Court commissioner, and as
the Times says, Mr.. Hudson is one of the best
court commissioners that the district has ever
sent to Dover.
On the Democratic side, there is Mr.. Megear
the candidate for insurance commissioner a
worthy man in every way, who, unfortunately for
him, is up against of the strongest candidates

highly qualified business man. Mr.. Charles II.
Lefevre, for prothonotary a BRIGHT young
lawyer of Kent county, and Mr.. Truax, repre-
sentative farmer, for Levy Court commissioner

have nominated such personally admirable men,

that community.
