seeding over the western half of the
state. Plows are working all over that
section, and with the ground in the
present condition the termination of
winter wheat is certain this fall, and
with such a start next year it will
beat out the spring own wheat in

C%ochrane, Parmley, Herick and Per-

from 80 to 1870 tons. The great

he decided: but howf
First of all. something must be done
to bring Gormly himself into the pub
lie eye In some other capacity. some
higher capacity, some more attractive
capacity, than that of a mere retailer
of ribbons, so to speak; the public eye
for Gormly being Miss Haldane's hq-
uid orbs- And Gormley knew that the
way to private consideration Is more
often than not through public inter
est He had to do something to 5usti
fy himself. therefore. to make himself
known In some enviable way; in short,
he determined to make himself worthy
of her. And again the question arose;
but how?
He had thought vaguely Of the "a
cling game. of the most magnificent OF
yachts, of the finest and speedfest OF
stables, of the fastest string of auto
mobiles, of thousand similar things
which he had dismissed as unworthy
of his high purpose and inadequate to
his end; until finally, fortune favoring
him, he hit upon the field of politics.
Miss Haldane In some OF those now
rather frequent conferences, had cas-
uaIly enough remarked that she liked
men who did things, who really ac-
complished something for good In this
world.
Gormly instantly resolved to do
something Now If any man really
wants to accomplish good IN this
world, there are few opportunities Of
greater possibilities than those pre-
scented In the political arena There
is also no field in which it is harder
to accomplish the end Gormly as q

reader. He had neither the time nor
the inclination to search the journals
In which were chronicled the doings
of social New York-in which the Hal
dane name was prominent; so he in
structed his private secretary, Cha
Toner, upon whose discretion he could
rely, to have sent to him at his private
address all clippings relating to Miss
Haldane- Gormly, therefore, knew the
life of the object of his attention as
well as it could be known from its out
ward and visible presentation before
the public. Indeed, there was little
that was concealable under such cir
cumstances- higher you rise the
less privacy you have, obscurity being
the prerogative, or the penalty. of the
humble-so that he was entirely
aware of Miss Haldane's goings and
comings, who her friends were, what
houses she visited, what diversions
she affected, who paid her attention,
and so on
Meanwhile the man did not neglect
his Understanding would ever
make him do that-but he divided his
time between it and the young woman
which was a great concession to her
influence One reason why he had be-
come such an assiduous student of the
clippings was because he wanted to
know whether Miss Haldane was, or
vas likely to be, engaged to be mar
ried. His apprehensions on that score
were soon set at rest 1t was Miss

no hesitation in approaching Gormly
with much more familiarity than she
would have dreamed of allowing her
self had he been younger. And yet
Gormiy himself was a young looking
man for forty-four. He was still as
tall and slender, not to say spare. as
he had been when a boy. He was
smooth shaven, and the fiecks of gray
in his blond hair were scarcely notice
able. II Miss Haldane had ever given
thought of his age,> she would have
supposed him ten years younger than
he was; that is, on appearance. When
she thought of his business, she would
have considered him sixty. Ever since
she could remember, she had dealt
at the great shop, and Gormly himself
unconsciously took on to her the as
pect of ancient history.
So the little affair ran on; Gormly

The Devotion Of Mr.. GormIy.
The relationship of Miss Haldane
and Gormly was all very well SO far
as it went, but it did not go far
enough for the mans purpose at least;
and Gormly was shrewd enough to see
that things might run on without any
definite results in this way forever.
Since the beginning of the acquaint-
ance Gormly had kept track of Miss
Haldane through a clipping bureaui-
