Miss lngle ceased clicking the type
writer for a moment and Strengthened
In her chair to rest the muscles of her
shoulders. The work OF the Midland
Coal & Mineral Land compay was
very heavy for one stenographer The
grind grew more wearisome and nerve
wracking every day. But she was alone
in the city and this was the only en-
ployment she was fitted for And she
must have bread and fire.
What did Jackson say about that
land in Glade county?" asked the
Junior partner, looking up from let
ter. Jackson was the company's coal
expert.
Said 1t was one of the finest out
looks he ever saw replied Biker, the
senior partner. Worth at least a hun
dred-and-ffty an acre
What Is it worth for farming pur-
poses?"
"Ou. not much. 1t Is poor, very
poor; say twenty or twenty-five An
acre"
About what shall We offer the
young hayseed?"
Start him at thirty" replied Biker,
and turned to other work
The junior brought the letter to the
stenographer and began to dictate:
Mr.. Willard Ferris, Gladeville, Mo.
X. F. d. No. A.
Dear Sir: Our expert reports your
land absolutely worthless as a mining
proposition. There Is some coal, but
owing to the formation, location, etc.
1t will be impossible ever to mine II at
a profit We can, perhaps, handle
your farm on our exchange list as ag-
ricultural land, and as such could pay
you $50 per acre for it.
Very truly,
The Midland Coal & Min. l.. Co"
All the morning Miss lngle kept
thinking Of the young farmer, Willard
Ferris. He was still in her mind when
she started to luncheon The ras-
Gals" she said Indignantly under her
breath. And over and over, 81 do hope
he won't take It.
No one in the Office had ever seen
Ferris, but she had been interested in
him from his very first letter about

Blue is very prominent among the
foulards, as it is everywhere through
out fashions realm. Never has there
been such a season of blue, and the
list of modish blues is long, though.
for that matter there seems to be no
shade of blue which is not worn. Navy
and kindred shades are much worn
for tailored costumes of the more So
we're sort, but the blues most peculiar
ly Of this season are the brilliant
glowing shades, such as bieriot, radi

In Gaelic the word for great or
large, also powerful and chieftain, is
more or mhor Variations of the word
are moir, moor and moore. The ap-
pellation was without doubt given
originally to men by reason of their
great stature or high station.
For nearly u centuries rulers of
Scotland were Mores by name or de.

The Chief Attraction,

Clothing ceases to be attractive
when it becomes mussed and dusty.
Wells are not wearable after the rent
appears. Gloves should be discarded
when they cannot be cleansed and
neatly mended. Shoes do not have to
come to tatters before being honestly
discharged from duty AS for hats,
every woman knows that her head
covering makes or mars her good
looks. Every housekeeper knows that
neat home is appealing and an I'M
tidy one repelling. We know these
things even when we disregard them

Then she went TO her room and

thwarttng the rascals in their deal.
She knew 1t was against the law OF

continue to draw salary from them.
She was out OF work and employ

Miss lngle had returned to her

for many days, she had searched for
work-and found none
There was knock on her door She
shrank back and hesitated to open It
She owed for three weeks room and
board, and expected. every day, that
her landlady would tell her to leave.
Miss Ingle." the landlady called.

She went down, wondering. AS she
entered the parlor strong. clean
looking young man arose and came

He wore very new suit of clothes !;

| lurking smile at the corners OF bis
mouth.
Il am Ferris" he said-shs knew 1t

She smiled and little color came
to her face.
Il hope you got the telegram in

Yes" he said, shaking his head.

hours later and would have been sold

And have you sold the land?" she
asked interestedly.
Yes" he nodded Sold 1t two
weeks ago for thirty thousand dol

Half of it belongs to you"
"Oh, no, indeed she said, blush

He studied her .or a minute as il
trying to think how to make her take
it. She was an attractive girl. with a
sweet, honest faCe-a girl whose heart
was always sick for home.
Then. he said slowly, IF you won't
take it. | reckon you will let me take
you to the theater?"
Yes" she laughed You may do
that. That won't be robbing the kids"
He laughed, d little disconnected.
Wasn't | green and easy?" Then his
face lighted The kids are already In
the academy-the whole bunch of
them altogether"
Il have had most delightful time,
she said when they returned from the
play. She held out her hand, and, AS
he took it. How soon are you going

II haven't any home" he said,
still holding her hand. And | am not

And from the way he held her hand,
and from the way her heart pounded
joyfully. she felt pretty sure he would
succeed.

Suit Themselves
BOTH INSISTENT IN CLAIMS
Brandeis and Pepper Contend Seere-

of Domain-Nothins Proven,
Says vetrees.

Washington, June 13.--Briefs were
filed by the attornys for the "prosecu-
tion" and defense" with the Balllnger-
Pinchot investigation committee to-
day.
Brandeis, counsel for CLAWS. and
Pepper for Pinchot, contend in their
briefs that the evidence adduced dur
ing the investigation has shown Ball
niger unfit to administer the affairs of
the public domain because OF an OBJ
vious leaning toward the policy of
distribution instead of conservation of
the peoples land. They condemn his
attitude toward the champions of con-
servation, and charge him with caus-
ing embarrassment TO the president
and a loss TO the people.
Equally insistent that Ballinger's ac-
tions. in and out of the Interior de-
partment have been above criticism
Vertrees, counsel for the secretary, de-
clares none of the accusations made
against him have been sustained oy

cause he did not approve of the So
called GARFIELD Policies"
