Read and there will unfold TO,
you a romance from which you
will learn how two Pzucky daugh-
tiers of the farm, yearned for a COL
lege education; HOW their father
gave then, the use of wornout
orchard to secure the money nee
essary; how they grappled with
the apple raising problem and
Snyder, the sharper, who was COR
nering the apple crop; how their
ambition had much to do with
the futures of two young men,
one rich and one poor; how the
,vornouf orchard influenced di-
recfly or indirectly not only the
lives Of four young people, but
college work, college sport and
college morals as we'll, and hon
SOME of those concerned in this
idyl of farm, and college we're at
last persuaded to exchange APP

Boone May 12.-Oie Olson, a Swede
of Madrid, did not have to be natural
lied, SO he thought to cast his vote in
Madrid short time. ago for municipal
officers. He went right ahead and vot-
ed and Judge Albrook, today, in the
ways and the foreigner is shy about
and a bit wiser
1T came about in this way. Olson
went to the polls and insisted on vot-
ing. He said that he was a resident of
Madrid and had been for some time,
He didn't know anything about natur-
a!ization papers and this is what got
him into the trouble. He voted and
some one who was familiar with the
situation and who belonged to the side
opposite to that which Olson was sup
porting got busy and reported the mat
ter. Ole was arrested and taken be-
fore Judge Hull, in that city. The
judge told Olson where to get off at.
but Olson didn't think that Hull knew
what he was talking about, so he came
to Boone and had attorneys appeal the
case to the district court
In the lower court he plead guilty to
voting, but said he thought that 1t was
customary for people to vote that he
heard people exhorting the men to get
out and vote, and he thought he was
merely doing his duty. Judge Albrook
thought he went beyond the bounds of
his duty and fined him $50 and costs.
which brought the total up to $40 and
the same was paid. Olson vows that
he will never vote again.

fered terrible anguish since learning
of the death OF her son, and collapsed
on reaching this city.
Her condition at noon was some-
what improved and she fought bravely
to bear the shock. The telegram In
forming the parents of the accident
was delayed many hours and did not
reach their home until Sunday morn
ing. They live several miles from
railroad, and 1t was necessary to con-
vey the message by slower means than
it would ordinarily have taken. Young
Millett was buried this afternoon.
Miss Elsie Scott, the young lady
who was seriously injured at the time
that Millett was killed, is getting along
very WELL Her condition yesterday
morning was encouraging. She is still
ignorant of the death of her sweetheart
and it is feared the shock of that in
telligence will be such as she may not
be able to withstand. Her heart Is
weak and she continually requests that
something be told her of his condition
That something serious happened to
Jesse she realizes, but she does not
know that death has claimed him.

his father spoke
He turned quickly and almost fell

BurIeson Writes Women Of Minnesota,
For Opinions.
Washington, May 12.-Representative
Burleson, of Texas, is trying to get ex-
pressions from women's organizations
favorable to his oleomargarine repeal
BILL and especially some from Repre-
sentative Tawney's district. Among
those to whom he wrote was Mrs. NJ. L.
Grattan, president of the Browning
Club of Preston, MINI. Mrs. Grattan's
reply was a distinct disappointment to
Burleson for she says:
The effort to make it appear that
br.ter is more dangerous food than
the miscalled oleamargarine which con-
tains no margarine, may alarm many
persons not familiar with the constitu-
ents of the latter
by all means stamp out tubercu-
losis and label foods truthfully. Let
butter be sold as butter and grease for
what it is, so that buyers may know
what they eat; limitations should be
taxed and doubly taxed"

"Goodby!'

to Mabel as they turned into the main
road.
"Jefrs good If he is awkward" Ma
bel answered. II don't like pretty
boys"

Gladys. "Apple trees are so much
more interesting
Mrs. Sanders met the girls with a
white face as they turned into the
yard.
"Your father is hurt awfully" she
cried. "He cut his foot while he was
chopping wood. and l can't seem to
stop the bleeding" She caught her
breath with frightened sob.
"Did you phone for the doctor?" ask
ed Mabel as she sprang to the ground.
Something's the matter with the
line" her mother answered. II can't
get any one"
Gladly gathered up the reins and
quickly turned Mollie around.
"you can't drive that colt to town
in the darli!" cried her mother. You
go with her, Mabel"
"I'm not afraid, mommie," spoke up
Gladys. "You need Mabel more than
l do. Come on, Mollie!'
It was six miles to Brighton, the
nearest place where she could get a
doctor, and Gladys we'll knew that
there was no time to lose. II the
bleeding didn't stop She leaned for
ward and spoke coaxingly to Mollie.
The little mare seemed to realize that
something was wrong and swung into
stride that made Gladys heart swell
with pride.
The fenceposts sped by in long.
jumbled procession. just visible in the
dim, ghostly snow light. Gladys kept
her eyes fixed on the strip of white
road ahead. Just over the end of 1t
the north star shone brightly. Gladys
