They came to beech tree. He handed her the handfulls of violets to hold. He then took out his knife and in the bark of the tree he carved her initials and his. Said she, Carve two hearts blending, and beneath them the word Forever for I am yours for time and eternity" He added the date of that June day; as he did so, a shaft of sunlight shot through the beech boughs upon the carving.
 Within year she lay in her coffin. In her hair were twned wild violets, and in her white pulseless hand she held a. clus- ter of them, which, he who loved her. had gathered and placed there. The years have passed. The world has changed much. But the old beech tree still stands with it's initials, its hearts, it's date. and the word Forever" Dear girl now a memory, but a. memory sacred and holy. In the shadow of the old colonial church lies her grave. Once a year he who loved her in the far off years. visits the scenes of his youth, and the country folk have long since learned who it is that lays mass of violets upon the grass-covered mound above her sacred dust. Tt Is we'll understood In the neighborhood that the old beech tree shall ever be protected. In- deed, it is said that in his will special mention of the tree is made to the effect that it is never to be cut down.

I have said that much of the pension graft is virtually a republican campaign fund. Let me relate something that came under my own observation. Metcalf coun- ty Kentucky, sent to swell the Federal army at least 700 soldiers out of a popu- lation of about 5000. When the war was over and the army disbanded, at least one-half of the Union soldiers of that bailiwick who returned voted the dem- ocratic ticket, and at the first election at which they voted the democratic majority was 1S5 in total vote of less than 12O0. And so it continued until the arrears bill was passed.
 One pr. Hunter, a carpetbagger from Pennsylvania, got the appointment of examining surgeon. Republicans made no bones of proclaiming from the housetops that to get a pension a fel- low had to vote as he shot" Well, it got to be so that applicants for pen sions, strong democrats, and their boys and other near kin. stayed away from the elections and we couldn't get them to the polls. That was the first step of the iniquity. By the next election they appeared and voted the straight republican ticket and in 1885 when l left that county you could count every

HEART TO HEART TALKS-By Ed1vin A. Nye

Much is being said about the conserva- tion of our natural resources but how will you compare the material wealth of soil and forest and stream and mine with "a better crop of boys and girs?"
 Is tree worth more than a child?
 The only hopeful feature of this New York exhibit which finds it's parallel In all large cities is that one half the world learns how the other half lives And to know the awful needs of these neglected children is to find a way for betterment
 ''rhe Big Brother society-you and l. must be responsible. We are our brothers keeper.
 "Well,' said an old farmer friend of mine, T have sold the old place, and mother and I will enjoy ourselves the balance of our days"
 Good I said. And yet
 I wondered if my friend might not be appointed. As for mother, she will do fairly well. She will have her house. keeping and sewing and that sort. But
 What will the old man do?
 For years the old couple have gone early to bed, to rise early and work hard almost every hour of the day, and it is not easy to change the habits of life time.
 I fancy at first the old people will have eaten their breakfast before most of the townsfolk are out of bed. It will be a long time for pa from breakfast to dinner and longer from dinner to supper.
 There are but few chores to do in town.
 The town people will be too busy to stop and chat with the old gentleman. He may try to read some, but he has not formed the habit of continued reading, and he will soon tire.

PENSIONS-A TALE-By Savoyard

Thurman was president pro tempore of the Senate and Samuel J. Randall was speaker of the House of Representa- tives. That Congress enacted the ar rears bill." which sought to make a merchandise of the soldier vote There never was a pension bill that Holman or Voorhees, of Indiana would not have voted for. By operation of the arrears bill the pension began to run from the date the disability was incurred, instead of from the time the claim was allowed. Instantly tens of thousands of claims were filed that never would have been presented but for this legis- lation One pension attorney here is reputed to have made $2,00O,000 prose- cutting these claims.
 What was the effect? pension ap- propriation of S56,6S9,227 in 1880, which by 1888 swelled to the enormous pro- portions of $S8,942,72O. The republi- cans as early as 1881 took inward this democratic brat of graft in patriotism and gratitude. But the thing was just fairly begun.
 About 1887 democratic House and a republican Senate passed the "pauper" pension bill and MT. Cleveland vetoted it. A man named Steele, republican mem Der of Congress from Indiana, attempted to nullify the constitution of the United

 So the woman had grown on the lip of this crater of misery a little garden.

 In profusion God has strewn them far up the bleak side of the mountain, in the cranny of the rocks, deep in the canyons, in wayside oasis. God has flowers to spare, while our flowers must be care fully planned and planted in tended gar dens. But, mark you--
 The flowers are planted first of all in our hearts!
 The exposure of our eyes, they are tend ed to give expression to the desire of our hearts, which desire is a faint shadow of the diivne desire.
 So this woman must have held flower garden in her heart.
 Somewhere in the woman's soul were grace and beauty and fragrance. and un- til this fragrance. and beauty and grace had lowered into floral fairness she was not content.

 Praislng her effort to grow the vines and blossoms, I saw through the lines of care and sorrow a sweet smile break over her face. Her illumined features and the faint finger of the girlhood in her eyes were good to see.
 Poverty and hardship had not crushed out of her the divine love for beauty.
 Her little garden on window sill was planted there like an oasis in a desert. and she had grown some blossoms that but for her had never bleomed And she had loved the tender growing things be- cause, first of all

democratic soldler in Metcalf county on the fingers Of one hand and have fingers to spare. I now recall but two.
 If that was done in Kentucky. what must have occurred in the doubtful state of Indiana? Now, Indiana did not send nearly as many soldiers to the front as Ohio or Illinois, but Indiana. the double decade 1Ss0-1900. had more pensioners than either. James D. Rieh- ardson of Tennessee investigated tho thing and made a conclusive speech in Congress on the subject. He showed how Indiana swarmed with special ex- aminers from the pension office just before elections and the mission of everyone of these gentry was 10 intim- idate or cajole the poor soldier into voting the republican ticket.

Better to stem with heart and hand
 The roaring tide Of life than lie Unmindful on its flaming strand Of Gods occasions drifting by.
 Some years ago Ebert Hubbard, a writer of things good, bad and indifferent. in moment of inspiration struck off a popular lay sermon.
 It was stinging rebuke to the shift less, the lazy, the towards of life.
 Briefly told, high officer in Washing ton put into the hands of Captain An- drew Rowan of the United States army private message to General Garcia of the nsurgent army somewhere in Cuba.
 Rowan did not ask, Where is Gar cia?"
 Nobody knew where he was. It was Rowan's business to find him. He took the paper without 8 word, saluted and departed.
 There was lapse of time, and 1t seemed Rowan might be lost or killed.
 One night a little boat rounded re- mote corner in Cuba, and Rowan landed. And then through brush and thicl1et, through perils seen and unseen the in- trepid messenger found his way and laid the paper, crumpled now, into the hands of Gar ia.
 The teaching was plain.
 Anybody can carry a message to Garcia if he knows where Garcia is or if some one will show him the way.
 But he who finds the way must travel in his own footsteps.
 The greatest need of the world is men and women who will assume the respon- sibility who will take the initiative find the way for themselves.

 should be held in place by cords or

 l referred to the bark on the north side of the tree, which leads me to say: If you transplant tree have re- gard to this point. Let the thick est
 bark stand toward the north. Some
 people have no success in transplanting
 trees. One cause, at least, Is easily
 discovered. They place the north side
 of the tree elsewhere than north. I
 used to have summer home near Asheville, N. c. I transplanted about 100 trees, bringing them from the
 mountains to my lawn. Among them were blue pines, poplars and cucumber trees. l transplanted them all in Au- gust. Out of the hundred 90 lived and
 many of them are now immense trees. I was told, You can't expect tree transplanted in August to live" But l did expect it, and was not disappoint- ed. However, I cared for my trees.
 They were very dear to me. I spent
 much time with them and what Francis d'Assisi became to trees, birds and flowers.
 l was to my beautiful trees. l., SOmenOW, Ielt tndC they Knew me, ana when at last I sold my mountain home
 and went to my trees to bid them good bye, I'm sure they dropped just a little. I said that many trees die. before they should as I did SO, I thought of number of trees that are famous for | their old age. There is cypress in Lombardy that is thought to be the oldest tree in the
 world. It is said to have been 40 years old at the time of our Lords nativity It is claimed that the knotted and gnarled old olive trees on Mount Olivet are the identical trees under which before His crucifixion. Certain it is. they were flourishing about thous- and years ago when the Turks cap- tured Jerusalem. There are still stand ing at Fountain Abbey, in Yorkshire,
 yew trees in whose shade councils were
 held in the year 1182 The yew tree
 that stood for a trysting place for
 Henry VIII and Anne Bolyn, was a
 famous tree at the time of the signing
 of the Magma Charta, 800 years before
 Henry met Anne. In the park at Wind
 sor palace there still stands william
 the-Conqueror's Oak" There Is still living the old oak from whose branches owen Glendower saw the battle be-
 tween Henry " and Harry Percy in 140S. I have seen the old cedars in the park of the vatican that were brought
 from Lebanon in the time of the cru
 sades. .e. sa,esss
 How many other trees must there
