Little Girl DefPisnds AIRED Woman
and Il Left = Fortune.
Like the heroine Of a fairy tale,
Miss Elsie ]. Murphy, Of 1888 Hager-
man street. Wissinoming, has been re-
warded for kind deed by the sudden
gift Of riches, says the Philadelphia
Press. Several years ago, while living
at Horsham, Pa, Elsie befriended an
aged woman by defending her against
other children Of the village who be-
lieved her to be mad and who accept
ed every opportunity to plague her.
The Murphys moved to Wissinoming
and Elsie had forgotten even the name
of the aged woman, when only a few
days ago she received bulky enve-
lope stamped with the letterhead of a
Philadelphia lawyer. Inside was the
copy Of the will of Mrs. Howard Frey
Irwin, who died in the city of New
York early in July and who bequeath-
ed the bulk of her estate, amounting
to several thousand dollars, to Elsie
Johanna Murphy, ''in memory Of her
great kindness to a stranger"
Inclosed with the will was letter
from Charles Bowman, the lawyer, who
had forwarded it. The letter said that
several weeks had been required to
find Miss Murphy's residence, as the
only address given in the will was the
one at Horsham. The letter further
said that Identification was now COM
plete and that Miss Murphy was the
heir to a small fortune.
The young heiress did not seem at
all overcome by her good fortune the
other day when reporter called. She
was sitting on her front doorstep, q
very pretty girl in a very much muss-
ed gingham dress.
Eyes, I'm Elsie Murphy" she said.
Eyes, I'm the one who had all the
money left to me, but I won't get it
for a long time. I'm only IL now and
they won't give it to me till I'm 21.
That's ages" she said, and seemed to
lose all interest in the matter.
Elsie's mother was more commune
cative. II remember Mrs. Irwin very
WE'LL" she said "The children used
to think she was crazy, and whenever
she would walk past the village school
they would run out to make fun of
her or even to throw stones. Elsie
never liked to see any one hurt, and
would take the old lady's part, often
walking home with her to see that she
was not molested. One day she called
at the school and asked the teacher
who Elsie was, and after that she call
ed to see us several times. That was
almost two years ago, and I'd forgot
ten the old lady's name, but I'm sure
It must have been she who left Elsie
the money"

ELEVATED HANDSHAKE.

How the Fashion Originated-Em.
press Josephins's Handkerchief.
1t appears that some Of the present
day fashions owe their origin to physi-
cal defects, says the London Globe. The
elevated handshake is one Of these, and
a Paris contemporary throws an inter
esting light upon its origin. 1t appears
that prince, leader Of society in the
French capital, had a carbuncls or
some such inconvenient and painful
growth on his shoulder. Whenever a
friend gave him handshake the oper.
alton as far as the prince was concern
ed was most painful. To prevent this
he raised his hand horizontally to his
shoulder, and, If We may use the e1-
preston, had "the whip hand"
The new method Of handshake was
the astonishment and admiration of
certain persons always on the lookout
for the latest in society, who thought
that the prince had inaugurated a new
fashion which one sees daily in opera
ton in the Strand.
The dainty lace handkerchief which
ladies use owes it's origin also to the
defects Of nature. The unhappy En-
press Josephine introduced the fashion.
She suffered from bad teeth, and living
In the time when American dentistry
was unknown, she cast about her for
some means to hide the defect. The
cambria handkerchief with rich lace
was the outcome. If the empress wish
ed to laugh or had to open her mouth
widely the handkerchief was requisi-
toned.
Again, yellow lace has its origin in
sadness, according to tradition. A lady
Of distinction had lost her husband by
shipwreck or some other cause. She
was impressed with the idea that he
would return and vowed to continue
wearing until he was restored to her
the lace which adorned her dress when
she said farewell. Like Josephine's
her intimates thought her
soiled lace was an innovation in fash.
ion and adopted means to copy it.

How to Make Windmill.
The odd looking air engine Is not
a flying machine, it is windmill, ana
when properly constructed, has been
known to develop from 2 to 3 horse
power, with foot wheel. small
er wheel, say with 2 foot blades, Will
easily run a churn, small grinder, corn
shelter, wood saw, etc. The height OF
the frame work, size Of timbers, eetc.'
will depend on the location, and size
Of mill. 1t should have clear space
with no buildings, or nearby trees TO
obstruct the wind. The structure may
set in any position, as it will run with
the wind in any direction. The two
blades Of the wheel are half circles,
as shown, and may be made of any
wood handy, they are set In the wood
pieces that are bolted around the iron
shaft, and braced and held in place
by the iron rods, A. A. and the strops,
e. e.. the blades are set at an angle
Of 45 degrees from the SHAFT, as shown
in the right hand figure IN the Illus
tration. Small wheels may be built of
three-quarter inch lumber, and larger
wheels, Of corresponding thickness.
The frame work should be AKA inch
lumber, for a small wheel, and larger
stuff used for larger wheels.
The four guy wires shown at Q. G.
G. serve to hold the frame upright, and
1t Is not necessary to set the two
outer posts over 2 or 3 feet in the
ground. The iron shaft will usually
be found in almost any old scrap pile,

Live Stock and Fertility.

AS rule, the best farming is done
where some form of live stock grow
ing and feeding is being practiced ;
however, it is not correct to say that
fertility can not be maintained without
live stock. The matter of maintaining
soil fertility by the use of legume crops,
aided by mineral fertilizers used to in
crease the growth of these crops, is
possible, although as general propo-
sition it is not profitable.
1t is not the fertility alone which
live stock brings to the farm, but the
organic matter which their presence
brings to the soil. In addition to the
humus and plant food contained in
stable manure there are present GER
tain bacteria that assist in the work of
making the plant food contained in the
manure available to the growing plants.
After completing their work of max
ing the plant food in the manure avail
able to the plants, they seize and con-
tinue their work of nitrifcation as long
as conditions are favorable.
Ihls explains why small applica-
ton Of manure to certain soils will
produce results far beyond the actual
fertilizing value of the manure that ia
used. Another point in favor of live
stock growing and feeding is the fact
that all rational plans of maintaining
soil fertility depend upon growing
crops in the rotation that are adapted
for animal feeding.
There are many live stock growers
and feeders who are not keeping the
productive qualities of their soils with
all of the manure they are making, as
well as the crop growers. By proper
cultivation and care a small amount Of
manure goes 4 long ways-Agricultural
Epitomist.

NOVelfsts and Love,

"What do you think of an old Iellow
of 55 having three fine women in love
with him at the same timeT'
II think it is absurd"
"Well, think so, too; but then you
and l, thank fortune, are young And
when Henry James was young he
agreed with us. When, in his youth,
Henry James was writing Daisy Miller
and The Portrait Of Lady, he didn't
have his fine women falling in love with
some old grandfather, and he didn't
take old grandfathers for his heroes.
But he does so now. In his 'Ambassa-
doris there are three women in love
with the fascinating Strether, and two
Of them propose. Yet Strether Is IS.
James, you see, was little over 55
when he wrote that book, and he there
fore believed that man of that age
could inspire passionate love in a wom-
ans heart.
''This Is sad commentary on human
nature-that we never grow too old to
think we can still love and be loved.
Writers unconsciously prove this COM
mentary. The older they grow the
older they make their fascinating
heroes. Marion Crawford and all the
old hands now write books wherein the
lady killers far and away the most sue
cessful are invariably go or so-that
is to say. about the authors own age"

A young Scotch emigrant was
brought before the magistrate of q
Nova Scotia court, charged with hav-
ing deserted his work on a certain
farm without giving due notice to his
employer. When asked what he had
to say in his defense, he replied, "Weel,
they gied me nout but brakeshaw to
eat" Bradshaw, it may be explained,
is the flesh of animals which have died
a natural death.
"How was that7" asked the magis-
trate.

CHAPTER XIII.


Constable's mind was slow to inform
this great concept. The day had left be-
hind in his brain q crowd Of unassimilat-
ed acts, and into this dull, formless COM
pany swept the climacteric joy. Figura-
lively speaking, he had to grope about
until lantern and matches were brought
together, before he could adjust and meas
ure and proportion. He halted at last In
the empty street, seized the girl by her
shoulders, saying, as one would evoke
the heart out Of miracle:

"Are you the little girl who handed

She revelled in the Joy she was giving
him, and thrilled under the Tightening
pressure of his hands upon her shoulders.
And when you grew up-you came to
me?"

The huge fellow was lost in his LADY,
rinth OF happiness. The doubts that had
smothered her answer were lifted now,
and he heard his victory without a breath
Of Its expression hampered. The shop
had indicated her daring. With all the
eagerness of brimming wemanhood, which
bursts the bonds Of repression for the first
time, she gave him her heart of hearts.
She was like a queen who summons a
man Of her people into her inner sane
tuary and bids him rule herself and her
kingdom. Resistless, trembling, whisper
ing, she was drawn into his arms.

Breen's ready answer was a sterling de-

They turned and faced the empty cliff.
To the left was an open door, and the
form OF woman was carved in the light.
The woman In the doorway spoke wocds
warmed and vitalized from her very heart,
and Breen answered and took her in his
arms. Lara brushed past the two and
into the shop.
The huge figure hunched forward upon
the table had not moved. Lara stepped
forward and touched his shoulder. He
stirred uneasily, muttered as if in pain,
but did not lift his head. She pressed
her hand more heavily upon his soiied
coat.

quick, frightened way.
The haggard face turned up to her. The
jaw dropped q little. His eyes, though
fixed upon her own, seemed to have lost
their direction. He gained his feet slow

He put his hand forth to touch her.
She caught it in her own. Pere Rabeaut
entered the rear door.
"And now" Breen was saying, you
two must not forget that Pelee is still
alive, and that my part Is still undone
while you are here-even tho Ugh togeth-
err" He spoke in English, which neither
Soronia nor her father understood.
"But are you not going?" Lara asked.
"Oh, no, Miss Stansbury. Peter I'M
derstands. l have told him that Nicholas
Stembridge ceases to compromise him af-
ter this night. 1t really is the better. the
only way"
He turned to Pere Rabeaut and added
lightly In French: "Our guests are going.
Let US all start last sunrise of Eper-
nay"

Really, am not afraid Of you," she said

There was moment in which Breen
and Constable stood close together. Lara
and Soronia were whispering, and strange
1t was, but out of their whispers was
evolved kiss.
"Look, Peter-ths lily and the tiger lily
bend together" said Breen.
The door was shut behind them. They
faced the harbor and started down the
sloping way.
But you-T she whispered.
