II must tell yon Of a remark over
heard on the street this morning,
writes one of my friends. A gen
tlcman, evidently a stranger here. re-
marked 10 his companion, The people
in this town don't seem to know how
TO smile, / haven't seen anybody
smiling yet.

cusation. at aldo you?
Seems as II we needed to take some

she has just began TO teach sne was
appointed to the bad boy room that
all the older teachers mad given up.
%And what did you do with them!
asked the reporter.
fOh, succeeded by using the up
ward curve method. answered Mrs.
Young.
II the gentleman's comment Is just,
we certainly had better try the up
ward curve method for while, II we
don't want to be known as the sour
city.
We have some beautiful public
buildings ald some splendid schools
and other attractions too numerous TO
mention TO be sure, but ii there are
a lot OF sorlooking people going about
the streets our visitors won't carry
away very pleasant impression.
OF course, you can't go about per
petualiy smiling to yourself.
II YOU did YOU would probably be
considered not quite safe 10 have at
large.
But you can look happy aud cheer
full all the time and when you meet
people or talk with anyone you can
smile all YOU want without being sus-
pected OF anything but happy dispo-
sition.
Or better still, take this advice:
So you're way down in the dumps

Think you've played ont all your

Oh go way;

TWO APPLE SEED STORIES.
By EDWIN A. NYE.

TWO APPLE SEED STORIES.
Doubtless you have heard of the
Wealthy apple. But did you ever hear
of Peter Gideon's coat?
The story goes together thus:
The Wealthy apple tree was bred by
Peter Gideon in an early day on the
shores Of beautiful Lake Minnetonka,
in Minnesota.
Gideon was struggling to hold down
a claim in what was then a wilderness.
with family depending on him.
He was literally without a coat to
his back"
Five dollars was borrowed from a
neighbor. and Gideons wife urged him
to buy a coat with the money.
But no.
The pioneer orchardist got along
without purchasing a coat He man.
ufactured one from an old vest by
using trousers legs for sleeves.
And the So? Against the entreaties
of his wife he sent the money back
east and bought apple seeds.
The neighbors thought Gideon was
peculiar if not mentally added. But
he planted the seeds he had bought
with his coat money and after years
of experiment evolved the hardy va
riety whose peculiar heredity enables
it to thrive farther north than any
other really good apple tree.
1t is not of record that Peter Gideon
grew wealthy. but the Wealthy apple,
say good authorities. has brought mil
lions of dollars to the northwest.
Which reminds me of another apple
seed story.
Years ago, before the middle west
was settled, an eccentric character
known as Apple Seed Johnny" whom
the hunters and trappers thought to
be mildly insane, wandered over the
country. and wherever he went he
planted apple seeds.
His habit was esteemed to be a
harmless sort of diversion.
But in after years when Apple Seed
Johnny" was dead. the fuller evidence
! OF his philanthropy appeared.
The apple trees grew and bore fruit
| and the settlers in the new region ate
with satisfaction and appreciation
from the trees 1.-The tramp had plant

Apple Seed Johnny" sleeps in some
unknown grave.
And Peter Gideon's name was moi
attached to his hardy apple. as was
