THE MOUSE

Several times lately Anna. had COM
planned of the mice in the kitchen
and had asked for a trap. But Helen,
who could never bear to have anything
killed, had refused to get one.
The most narrowing memories of her
childhood were the cruel rat traps that
had been kept in the pantry and eel
lar of her grandfathers house. She
still shuddered at the thought of the
helpless, squirming things with leg
crushed in the old-fashioned "steel
trap" lying there for hours, until they
were found and killed.
Again and again she had stolen down
in the cellar where the traps were set
with bits of cheese and had sprung
them with a stick so that she might
sleep that night free from the thought
that some little creature was lying
there manned and suffering until
morning.
And countless times when she found
them caught in these cage-like traps
which imprison but do not injure,
she had opened the wire door to free
them before the servant could throw
them into pail of water or let them
out before a leaping dog.
And so now, when she had home
of her own, she was most emphatic
in her instructions that there were to
be no traps of any kind.
1t was one afternoon just before
Warren came home that she reached
up on the shelf in the bath room to
get a fresh box of matches for his
smoking table. On this shelf she also
kept the birdseed, and it was from
behind a package of seed that a tiny
mouse sprang out, and in it's terror fell
over the edge of the shelf into the
bath tub underneath.
For a second it rushed wildly around
the polished porcelain tub and then
began leaping up the slick sides, only
to slide back again.
The glass-like finish of the tub gave
it nothing to hold to-it was helpless
ly imprisoned. And still it leaped
frantically-but only to reach just be-
low the edge and then fall back. It's
little body was quivering with terror.
Helen, after her first start and cry of
surprise when the mouse had darted
out, watched it with pity and dismay.
"Anna-Anna, come here quick!"
Anna appeared at the bath room
Los Angeles herald., 1910-09-25

door, her hands covered with flour.
'Look-lookl How can we get it
out without hurting it!''
With something like a snort, Anna
reached over and turned on the hot
water faucet But in a flash Helen
had dragged her back and turned it
off.
Don't you dare do a ching like
that" Anna had never seen her so
angry. do you think I'd let you scald
that little thing? If I ever see you
do anything so cruel again-you can't
work for me! Do you understand? ?"
II didn't know that was the hot
water, ma'am I was just going to
drown it,
"Well. even to drown a thing
trapped and helpless like that-I won't
have it! You've been wanting to get
traps and I won't have them either. I
want you to understand now that
nothing is going to be made to suffer
or to be killed in this apartment"
The mouse was still leaping fran
tically up the sides of the tub.
"Oh, it can never get out itself
how can we help it?" 4.
"I don't know ma'am," rather sui.
lenly, resentful of the scolding.
The sound of a door closing and
steps in the hall.
"Oh, it's Warren!" joyfully. WAR
w oAACis d
mouse in the bath tub and 1t can't get
out!"
That's tragic!" coming to the door
"Oh, it's so frightened! Can you get
it out without hurting 1t or frighten-
ing it more?"
He glanced at the little thing DART
ing quiveringly around, and then-he
simply let down the chain OF the rub
ber stopper which had<bsens caught up
over the faucets.
In a flash the mouse had climbed up
the chain, leaped to thesfIoor and dis
appeared behind the tub.
"Oh," Helen put up her arms and
kissed him impulsively. N"I never
thought of that! You are the dearest
and wisest and best man in the world!"

of the mouse"

METHOW SHOW OPENS
Exhibit of Representative Fruit from
MethOw Valley Begins To-
morrow.

An apple show exhibiting fruit ex-
clusively from the Methow valley
will open tomorrow afternoon. 1t
is located in a tent on Wenatchee
avenue just north of the Elman HO-
tel building. The exhibit is made by
the Furey-Culver company who are
the sales agents of the Methow Can
al company's project.
F. H. Furey, who is in charge of
the exhibit, stated to the Daily World
reporter this morning that all of the
apples were taken from the old Lib
by ranch, now owned by the Furey-
Culver company. This property is
located about mile south of the
town of Carlton and consists of $50
acres Only three acres are in bear
ing, however, and it was this small
family orchard which has furnished
practically all of the exhibit now be-
ing made in Wenatchee Before the
apples for the Wenatchee show were
selected, large amount of first
cnoice fruit was taken for exhibition
at the National Apple Show at Spo-
kane. In consequence of this fact,
visitors will appreciate that the ex-
hibit made in Wenatchee is very rep
resentative of the orchard run of the
a~I ho-
never been sprayed. pruned nor the
fruit thinned This accounts for the
small size of the Winesaps. On one
Winesap tree a cluster of SO apples
Oil a limb "a inches long was taken,
and the three Winesap trees in the
orchard were loaded to their utmost
capacity.
The varieties being shown here by
Mr. Furey include: Jonathan, tier:
White Winter Pearmain, 4 tier; Spit
zenberg, 3 1-2 and 4 tier; Yellow
Newtown Pippin, 3 and 3 IL tier:
Northwest Greening, tier; Bell
flower. 3 tier; Stayman Winesap, )
tier; Arkansas Black, 3 IL tier;
Winesap, tier; Northern Spy. 3 IL
tier; Rambo, 3 IL tier; Lauver,
IL tier. and Alexander, IL tier.
A distinctive feature of the exhibit
is the color shown in all of the fruit.
The Beethoven and White Winter
Pearmain show a beautiful red blush.
The Spitzenbergs, Winesaps, Black
Ben Davis and Jonathans have deep
red color which cannot be surpassed
anywhere.
Probably the most phenomenal
feature of the display is the Yellow
Newtown Pippin. The size is remark
able and the color is more that of
Northwest Greening. The exhibit
goes to show that the MethOw Valley
is particularly adapted to the Spit
zenberg and Yellow NewtOwn varie-
ties.
Arrangements have been made to
move the exhibit, after it closes in
this city, to the city ticket office of
the Great Northern railroad in Sc
attic.

PROTECTING THE TRAVELLING
PUBLIC

The travelling public will greatly
appreciate the efforts which the
Great Northern railway has made to
safeguard its passengers in the win
ter season by the construction of
adequate snow sheds The Great
Northern engineers feel certain that
they have succeeded in protecting it's
mountain tracks from the danger of
slides such as caused such loss of
/ life and property at Wellington last
year.
The principle upon which they
have worked is to construct their
protecting sheds in such a manner
that the angle Of declivity will cor
respond with that of the mountain
side and thus slides will not meet
with any obstruction in their down
ward course. should they occur
Much of the work accomplished thus
far is of necessity only temporary
and will be replaced with steel and
concrete next season. But the tenn
|porary structures have been made
capable of Withstanding great resist
lance.
Passengers this winter over the
cascades by way of the Great North
fern can feel as secure from danger
as over any other route

II is noticeable that there is less at
tention given to theory and more to
questions of practical import in edu-
cational programs these days. The
general public should be interested
in these sessions. Lectures which
are good for teachers are also good
for patrons. Cooperation is the ten
dency in industrial affairs and If CO.
operation is a good thing in helping
to regulate markets, it is equally a
good thing to secure cooperation be-
tween the school and the home.

DEALERS BUY APPLES
Wenatchee JOnathans Purchased by
Wisconsin Grocers for $3.50
Per Box.

Gunther Carlberg, of this city, has
received the following letter from
Johnson Bros, fancy grocers of Nee
nah, Wisconsin, where Mr.. Carlberg
was for many years a merchant
Thought it might interest you to
know that We are handling quite a
few boxes of Wenatchee valley APP
ples-more so this season than ever
befOre-mOstly Jonathans, but some
such varieties as Winter Banana,
Grimes Golden and Gravensteins
earlier in the season. Jonathans cost
us here now about $3.50 per box"
This gives some idea of the aver
age price which the retailers in the
east pay for Wenatchee apples. 1t
is supposed that he gets $3.50 per
box, giving him a profit of so cents
net. If the Jonathans, which John
son Bros. mention, were those which
the grower sold f. o. b. Wenatchee at
$3.50 per box, then $140 is left to
deliver the fruit to the retailer and
this is distributed, so cents for
freight to Chicago, 20 cents freight
Chicago to Neenah, 10 cents commits
sion charges to the fruit buyer and
60 cents for profit and expenses to
the middleman. On such prices the
letter from Neenah shows that the
demand for Wenatchee apples is rap
idly increasing in the east

PLEASED WITH BUY
Six Acres of Orchard Yield So, 100
Worth of Fruit.

Henry Patrick, who came here re-
Gently from Kentucky and purchased
the J. r. Campbell ranch, is much
pleased with the returns of his or
chard. Mr.. Patrick bought seven
acres of land, six acres of which is
in bearing fruit. He paid for 1t the
sum of $4,000 and the crop went
with the land. Mr.. Campbell est1-
mated that there were 5000 boxes
of apples in the orchard. Instead OF
this amount, Mr.. Patrick finds that
there are $500 boxes. At net price
of $3.50 per box, the orchard this
year will return to him $3.50. In
other words, after deducting the
price netted by the crop, Mr.. Patrick
has a fine orchard of six acres for
which he has paid $11,500. 1t is
safe to say that in the next two or
three years the orchard will have
produced enough to entirely pay for
itself.
