CHAPTER xI.-continued.

The long day wore along. Mother
White was baking. The men would
be ravenous when they came back.
Many would stop there for something
to eat before going on to their homes.
1t might be tonight, it might be to-
morrow, it might not be until the day
after, but whenever the time did come,
knowing the men of the range coun-
try, she must have something by

E At last came the doctor and Gordon,
driving up in the doctors top-buggy,
weather-stained, mud-bedaubed with
the mud of last spring, of many
springs. The doctor was a badly
dressed, pleasant-eyed man, past mid
die age, with fringe of gray whisk-
ers. He was a sort of journeyman
doctor, and he had drifted hither one
day two summers ago from the Lake
Andes country in this self-same trav-
el-worn conveyance with its same
bony sorrel. He had found good
picking, he had often jovially remark
ed since, chewing serenely away on
brand of vile plug the while. He
had elected to remain. He was part
and parcel of the cattle country now.
He was an established condition. Peo-
pie had learned to accept him as he
was and be grateful. Haste was a
mental and physical impossibility to
him. He took his own time. All must
perforce acquiesce.

high fever, Miss Williston, that's what

Gordon drew up a chair and sat
down by her, saying with grave kind
ness, "You are fretting. We must not

all night and shoe the COLLINS away. "
you are kind" said Mary, grateful
~. May 1 tell you when they come?
If some one speaks to me they go
away"
Indeed you may, dear child" he
exclaimed, heartily. He had been half
Joking when he spoke of keeping
things away. He now perceived that
these things were more serious than
he knew.
The doctor administered medicine to
reduce the fever, dressed the wounded
arm, with Gordon's ready assistance,
and then called in Mother White to
prepare the bed for his patient; but
no paused nonplussed before the
weight Of entreaty in Mary's eyes and
yUice.

another opening at this point into the
shaft, GxS inches, which can be opened

openings at the ceiling are used in

closed tightly or when the air is in
such a condition that the moisture and
frost begins to collect on the ceiling.

Our illustration shows the interior
view of the corner of a narrowing pen.

the inside of the pen which keeps the

large SOW will often do. The tenders
should project at least eight inches

The distance from the bottom of the
outlet shafts in the pens to the top OF
the main shaft is 80 feet. The intakes
slightly exceed the outlets and are so
arranged that there is one for each
pen. The air enters an opening at the
outside near the wall line and, passing
upward in the partitions, enters the
pens near the ceiling.

They Need Variety.-It is mistake
to try to raise hogs on an exclusive
diet. You ask what kinds of feed can
be produced on your farm and in your
locality, then give them variety Of
it These feeds should be given in
such relation to each other as to meet
the varied needs of the swine sys-
tenn.

Don't Do lit is a mistake for the
city farmer, living in town, to trust
lice that may be on him. And the hog
hired man. He is not likely to make
a success of it.

not need as much grain when not hard
at work. but they should have it just
as regularly.

BURIAL ASSOCIATIONS
Must Not Take Any New Business
Until They Comply With
the Law.

Columbus, O., May 14.-Burial asso-
Citations, which were placed under the
control of the state insurance depart
ment, cannot write any new business
until they have complied with the
law recently enacted by the general
assembly. This will have to be done
at once if they care to continue, and
for the purpose of a full explanation
Of what has to be done by them In
surance Commissioner Charles G.
Lemert has made the following rul-
ing:
"The amendments to Section 2S9
and 3631a of the Revised Statutes of
Ohio by the second session of the
seventy-seventh general assembly
make amy association formed for the
exclusive purpose of providing for the
payment of the funeral expenses of
the members of such associations by
assessments upon such members when
the amount of such payment on ac-
count of any one member does not
exceed the sum of $780,, known as
Burial Associations amenable to the
provisions of Sections 3630a, b, C, I,
g and h, and Section 1851 of the Re-
yised Statutes relating to Mutual Pro-
lection Associations. All such asso-
Citations are directed to cease writing
new business until the law has been
complied with, and a certificate of
compliance Herewith has been issued
by the insurance department of this
state.
"The department has ruled that the
amendments above referred to will not
affect existing contracts. Corpora
tions or associations heretofore or
ganized may continue in existence for
the purpose of carrying out the con-
tracts heretofore written, but not for
the purpose of doing any further busi-
ness, or they may, pursuant 10 the
provisions of the Revised Statutes,
proceed to wind up their business and
dissolve, protecting the rights of the
contract holders and the interests
which such persons may have in the
assets of such corporations or asso-
Citations"

PLANS TO SURPRISE;
DEATH STANDS IN PATH
Aged Woman Travels Secretly From
Seattle to st. Louis, Aiming to
Astonish Boy. But Dies
on Leaving Train.

st. Louis, May 14.-Death played its
family life that was enacted in the
Union station here early this morning.
Death, by stepping in inOppOrtunely,
spoiled the surprise which an aged
mother had planned for her boy and
has plunged his whole family into
grief.
When Mrs. e. w. Thompson, 80
years old and feeble, left her home in
Seattle, Wash, to visit her son George
here, she thought it would be pleasant
surprise to him, and so she failed to
let him know that she was coming
She thought she could find his store
at 1015 Olive street unassisted, and
she depicted to herself the reunion
after so many years. 1t was to be her
little joke to walk in upon him un.
announced.
Weary with the long journey and
somewhat worried to find herself sud
denly thrust into the hurrying crowd
at Union Station here Tuesday even
ing, she was guided to the matron' S
room and asked to be allowed to pass
the night there. In her confusion she
still pluckily stuck to her original plan
and did not tell the matron who she
was or where she was going. She
didn't want her son notified and plan
ned to take a cab the next morning.
Shortly before o'clock this morn
ing, when the matron handed the old
woman glass of water, she seemed
to be recovering her strength and con.
fidence and did not complain of feel
ing particularly i'll. Half an hour later
it was discovered that she was dead.
The body was removed to morgue
and it was there that a police officer
in going through her hand satchel dis
covered a note from her son in st.
Louis containing directions as to how
she might reach his store in case he
missed her in the crowd. Mr.. Thomp-
son was notified and Immediately went
to the morgue, where he identified
his mother He said that he had
known she was coming, but had not
expected her so soon, and that she
had failed to notify him when she left
the West. Another son, Charles, with
whom Mrs. Thompson had been living
in Seattle, died a month ago and she
had planned making her home with
the son in st, Louis.

FORAKER men
ACTIVE IN 18TH

Special to Morning News.
Millersburg. o., MAG 14.--The Re
publican congressional convention OF
the 17th district will be held at CO.
shocton tomorrow and there are evil
dences that lead one to believe that
the Foraker crowd will make some
trouble for the Taft boomers who
count on solid Taft delegation
from Ohio. The death of Judge Smy-
ser, of Wooster, has disarranged mat
ters somewhat and the slate must be
changed. Not much interest in the
candidate for congress will be mani
tested because no Republican stands
ghost of chance to defeat Hon.
w. A. Ashbrook, Democrat, for Sec
ond term. He will poll large num-
ber of Republican votes in this coun-
ty, especially among the old soldiers
who are all for him for his tireles
work in congress in their behelf.
