Charity May stepped briskly to and fro before
the spinnng-whee which she had brought out to
the door-stonc of the gray farmhouse the hill.
Occasionally she lifted her brown eyes from her
work and gazed out over the rolling pastures of the
fair island of Prudence the strip of bay to
the Rhode Island shore.
"'T is fine day. Polly" she said at length, to
the small girl who sat beside her sewing Il think
perhaps mother will let go out in the boat when
our work is finished"
"Oh, Charity! Does thee think she wi?" chirped
little Polly. in her excitement taking rather longer
stitches than usual. "'T will be beautiful on the bay
this morning"
Charity studied the and sky intently.
There's very little breeze stirring" she replied
"I am almost mother will say may go for
while if do work particularly we'll Take
care of those stitches Poll The last ones had best
come out. They will thee jaunt, but
more like an extra long psalm"
Polly pouted, but in a moment laughed and pulled
out the offending stitches grooming softly to herself
she set them again with great care Charity
worked with will, and her task was soon finished
She disappeared into the house. and in few mo-
ments her voice rang merry through the open door.
Mother says yes Pollykins. Put up thy work
for to-day"

Sweet Mother May followed her elder daughter
to the door. and gazed lovingly after the two young
figures,
Though Charity was Polly's senior by five years.
the sisters were loving comrades. They were both
very happy when their brother Ben built for them
a boat
This morning the boat lay the sand where
Ben had left it after fishing trip the day before.
Polly, with joyful gurge, climbed in, and took her
seat in the stern. Charity pushed off with little
difficulty, and they were floating the wide
bosom of Narrasansett Bay. On this August morn
Ing the warm, blue haze made all distant points
vague and indistinet. Presently Charity dropped
her oars and sat still with casped hands, and even
Polly for once was quiet as the little boat drifted
with the ebbing tide down toward Newport and, the
ocean:
"rhe French ships sailed out yesterday to meet
Admiral Howe's squadron at sea- Father was
telling Ben last night" Charity said at last break
ing the long silence "How can men fight and kill
each other in this lovely summer weather."

II don't know answered her sister, "but
must find way and she gently touched the gold
braided sleeve. Again the soldier opened his eyes.
Suddenly he made weak effort to rise
"Can thee not move little way now if we help
thee?' Charity asked looking out bit anxiously
the wide strip of water to Prudence Island.
fresh westerly wind had sprung up, and Pollys
white rufHes" of an hour ago had become whole
caps uow
Once more the soldier endeavored to rise, and
this time, with the girls help, succeeded
"If thee can only get down to our boat" Charity
urged. "we take thee home, and then mother will
, care for thee
Come, poor soldier" Polly echoed, Dear
mother will make thee quite well"
A smile crossed the officers pain drawn face.
Bless your dear heart, pretty one" he said.
Limping painfully with the stiffened leg drag
ging, he made his way to the beach, Charity just
behind him, supporting him when he stopped to rest,
and Polly by his side patting his red sleeve when
she felt he needed encouragement The mans
breath came in gasps, but he smiled at his
Good little Samaritans," he whispered
Suddenly Polly cried out, "Oh, Charity! Look,
there's storm coming!
Sure enough. Over the high shoulder of Pru
dence Island, great masses of purple cloud were
rolling heavily eastward. The wind was increasing
almost to a gale too One of the sudden, violent
storms of the region was approaching.
1--WE must get home before it breaks" Charity
spoke calmly, but for moment her heartbeats
quickened There is no shelter hereabouts."
Making a last, supreme effort the soldier rolled
into the boat and tainted.
Never mind him, Polly" Charity commanded.
"Thee must take the other pair of and pull for
dear life"
A low growI of thunder in the west served to
turn Pollys attention from their wounded pas
senger. She caught up her oars and rowed like the
brave little woman she was.
"What time does thee think it is, Charty?" she
inquired once.

Mother will be worrying" the little girl said,
with slight shiver.
Eyes. mother will be worrying" her sister re-
peated. looking her shoulder at the approach
ing clouds. She fully realized what Polly only felt,
that they were in a perilous position.
Wind and tide were both against them but they
made good progress for little time. The young
man at their feet moaned now and then and moved
uneasily, but the two rowers pulled steadily

Charity said looking back again at the clouds, which

Instructions For Growing Of Vegetable
For Use During Green State.
These cultural instructions pertain IA
the growing Of beans for use during
the green state Or FOR snap shorts. AZ
It Is generally known. says the Iowa
Homestead.
It IS an old saying that land which
win not grow any other crop may be
planted 70 beans However. this Is q
great mistake for In order to grow a
good crop Of beans the son must be
fairly rich or you viii have poor
crop. Beans win come into bearing
earlier on light. sandy soil, but larger
crops and pods OF better quality can
be grown on heavier soils, only they
WIN be a little later ~ coming into
bearing. This point should be given
consideration when planting for mar
ket, as the early crops always bring
the best prices.
Beans are very tender and should
not be planted until the ground is
quite warm Or the seed may decay in
the ground. Planting should be done
about the time corn is planted or a lit
tie later for main crop.
Plant IA rows eighteen inches apart
having the seed in drills every four
inches Or in hills about one foot apart

inches deep The writer prefers plant

and keep clean from weeds AS soon
as the plants are up commence to stir
the soil. and give frequent but shall
low civilizations until the blossoms ap-
pear. After that all cultivation should
cease, as the blossoms are very easily
knocked on. and Of course this would
greatly diminish the crop Of pods.
DO not work among your beans
when they are wet from rain or dew
If the soil Is SO dry that dust rises. as
that would cause the leaves 70 rust,
which often ruins the crop, For q
constant supply Of fresh tender pods
make suceessional paintings until the
middle Of July.
Keeping al pods picked while young
and tender viii greatly prolong the
bearing season. Great improvements
have been made 10 beans during re-
cent years. and varieties have been
produced which are absolutely free
from strings and tough fiber Al
though seed Of these improved varie-
ties costs more than the common sorts.
