him. She was shown to that as matter
of course She took it, What else could
she do?
Now it takes great deal of grace to
sit opposite a clean-cut, manly face. smil-
ing gray eyes and quizzical mouth. and
look as if you don't notice them. and not
look too much that way, either, because
he had SPOKEN to her once or twice, with
the little girl. as chaperon, and had
answered a polite question.
The gentleman passed the menu. His
expression really was admirable, consider
ing all the circumstances. She tried to
adjust herself While she studied the card.
Then something compelled her to look at
the man. His eyes were questioning, an
interested expression was dawning on his
face. his lips parted She wanted to run i;
she knew he was going to speak to her.
He did.
Pardon me-" he said, but do you-it
seems rather ridiculous thing to ask
merely because you come from New Or
leans-but do you happen to know Miss
Eleanor tloyd?'

it was absurd? She didn't even know that
he came from Mexico. 1t was only the
end Of sentence she had caught.
But she couldn't keep from noticing him
out of the tail of her eye. He really was
different. he fairly exuded vitality, sort
of jack-in-th e-box with the lid down. Oc-
casionally he ran his fingers around in
side his collar as IL he were unused to

remark he made to man that he'd been
four days on the train, and he guessed
they were getting pretty close to New
York now. Pretty close. Heavens.
The little Carleton girl came from
another car to see her. Eleanor answered
innumerable questions. They discussed
dancing school-and cats-and dogs-and
fairies. The gentleman across the way
seemed amused. His newspaper sagged
leaving an attractive picture sticking out
from the underside of it, The little girl
went over

she said sociably;

some time discussing blue skes-and water
and trees-and fairies
Eleanor was amused, too. and very for
maily. very casually. one or two remarks
passed between the gentleman and herself.
When the little girl went back to her
mother the gentleman went with her, and
when he returned Eleanor thanked him as
il he had conferred personal favor. They
were almost acquainted.
At Atlanta, Eleanor asked tiny formal
question concerning the exact time, and if
they were late. She had made up her
mind dozen times about that Morton
question She would lead up to it. Of
course, with little conversation about
the country 1t seemed perfectly easy, but
her lips always closed tightly at the last
instant.
She was restless. so was the stranger.

she noticed him out on the side of the
track letting Off energy in swinging

gracefully. but when the car passed on
she dove head-first into her book with a
startled expression. and later found some

Is Causing the Council Much
Trouble.
Residents Along Avenue Diff
fer as to how to Change
the Wrong.

About the onlysbusiness Of i'm
portance to come up before the
council at their meeting held on
Tuesday evening was the quest
ion of changing Washington
avenue so as to straighten it out
in some manner satisfactorily TO
the property owners along the
avenue. During the past week
r. w. Smith, a surveyor, and
Street Com mission Mike Larson
made a survey of the avenue and
they presented their report at
the meeting Tuesday. 1t seems
that when the line was run for
the avenue that some mistake
was made and the center line
was placed too far to the east.
The addition known as Vaughn
and AusGrians addition to Wash
burn was surveyed from this
line and tn e whole addition now
projects out into the street.
Not only are the first blocks
wrong but the whole addition
is wrong down as far as eighth
avenue and to change it back
where it belongs would cost the
city tremendous amount of
money. and this change is en-
tirely out of the question. The
people on the east side Of the
avenue are the ones that are
making the kick. Those owning
land on the avenue believe that
they have not got the land that
rightfully belongs to them and
they want the change made SO
that they will get the land. In
order to give the people along
the east side the land that
they believe that they
own, without interfering with
the west side, would make a
slight angle in the avenue. The
angle would begin at fourth
street west and continue north
for one half mile and it would
come out to where the avenue is
straight again. This would
throw the walk out into the
avenue a distance Of six or eight
feet at the Catholic church Cor
ner, and would narrow up the
avenue this amount. The cOun-
ci, mmittee is to make further
Investigations before the pro-
posed changes are made.

Will Kill DandeliOnS.

An expert in Salt Lake City in
searching for means for roofing out
the dandelion pest from the lawn,
claims to have found the following
Elective:
Two pounds of sulphate iron was
dissolved in two gallons of water.
1t was then poured into spraying
pump. In one place a patch of dan
delions was sprayed heavily. another
was sprayed medium. and third
patch was sprayed lightly. Inside
Of an hour the dandelions were burn
ed as black as coal. The lawn grass
and clover were not touched at all
and all stood as fresh as ever.
The grass was not effected where
the dandelions were sprayed the
heaviest.
The dandeions were killed to the
roots. The body of the roots ab-
>orbed the sulphate, and it is said
that the sprouts will not come up
from the roots again. The grass
looks brighter than any other on
the lawn.
AS the cost is light this is worth

Conductor Paints
From Terrible Pain

Nicholas Gluckman, formerly con-
ductor on the Brooklyn Elevated, re-
siding at 100 Havermeyer street.
Brooklyn. and who has just recently
recovered from long illness, gives
the following account of his expert
ence with the Cooper remedies, which
are now being demonstrated in this
city by l.. T. Cooper. Mr.. Gluckman
says:
For two years / was conductor on
the Brooklyn elevated, but suffered
so severely from stomach trouble
that finally | was compelled to quit
work. On several occasions | tainted
as result of the terrible pains in
my stomach. My head ached almost
constantly and the gas on my stom-
ach after eating nearly drove me
wild.
Il took al kinds of medicine in an
effort to get relief, but it did me
no more good than SO much water.
Doctors diagnosed my trouble in all
sorts of ways, and twice / submitted
to surgical operation. These opera
tions did more harm than good, for
they not only failed to give relief,
but left me perceptibly weaker.
by this time my condition was
