George, my negro servant, to lock the
house and put the key under a certain
stone near the steps. He agreed to
do so. 1t was late at night when re-

which the key was supposed to have
been hidden. 1t was gone. l hunted
around for about fifteen minutes, but
still no key. Finally l went to

Ben Erankiin's keenness.

Two Incidents recall the keenness
and the thoroughness-the great twin
abilities, to see and to utilize--of Ben
Franklin. One day he CHANGED to OBJ
serve lady in the possession of an
imported whisk broom. With his usual
interest and careful consideration he
examined it as novelty. He discov-
cred on the brush of the broom seed,
which he carefully removed. Present
ly he planted it. and the growth from
this seed was the first crop of broom
corn in this country. Again one day
when DR.. Franklin was walking by
Dock creek he saw stuck in the mud
wickerworll basket, which had
sprouted. Carefully he fsled out the
basket and carefully took it apart. He
gave cuttings to his friend, Mr.. Charles
Norris. who planted the tWigs in his
garden, where they grew to great size.
They turned out to be yellow willows
and, as Franklin had foreseen, proved
of great commercial value.
