went over 10 the. waste basket and took
out the wrapping paper that had come
around the box. The address was hardly
more than a penciled scrawl.

With a sick weight at her heart Helen
realized the boy was right. Now that she

What floor is Miss Cuttings on?"
Eighth floor, front, MAN"
When she rang the bell at the door of
the eighth floor front she was not as
embarrassed or self-conscious as she
would have been had not the weight OF
her own disappointment duled her to
any other feeling.
The door was opened by an attractive
young woman in dainty house gown.
IL am Mrs. Curtis from the fifth
floor. They brought me this package OF
yours--it is addressed so carelessly that
it looked very much like Curtis and I
opened it-Tm very sorry"
Miss Cuttings laughed pleasantly. "You

Helen as she entered. You see it's

laughed Miss Cuttings opening the box.

Miss Cuttings was very charming, and
had It not been for the disappointment
that tugged so heavy at her heart, Helen
would have been almost glad of the mis-
take.
And she seemed so radiantly happy.
There was something about her that
made one feel her Joyous interest in life.

second anniversary of their engagement.
She had determined not to remind him,
and when he left that morning without
the slightest reference to it she had gone
about her work with a heavy heart. Try
as she would, she could not keep back
the sickening sense Of disappointment.

And he had not forgotten! This was
his remembrance. 1t was like him not
TO speak Of 1t in advance. He never
talked OF things-he only did them.
And now, as was her nature when
given the least chance, she began to
uwel on and exaggerate his every vir-
tue and to minimize all his faults. Did
not this show he thought of many
things that she believed he had forgotten9

nature.
She started up-she would phone him!
She could not walt until he came home

that she felt 1t had helped to make her

A Word Of Appreciation

lhe investment in the Expert
mental Farm at Newark has been
no mistake for the State of Della
ware, and from its work will come
a new era hor Delaware College as
an institution of learning for the
young men on the State. ANY of
the three thousand who visited
the experimental farm last Mon
day will endorse the statement.
that thousands of the men and wo-
men OF Delaware who would NOT
under any other conditions have
gone to Newark, were there for
the expressed purpose of inspect
ing the buildings, stock, crops and
noticing the results obtained at the
place by the different experiments
conducted there. This interest in
the State Farm by the farmers of
the lower counties must o.: neces-
sity be a great gain for Delaware
College. Becoming interested in
the place through their annual
trips of inspection, they will natu-
rally send thei, sons to the insti-
tuition, with the lestiit that in a
few years Delaware's enrolment
will be larger than at any time in
her history. The training that the
boys will receive at the college will
better equip them for their work
on the farm, not only by giving
them an education along other
lines, but by teaching them how
to make experiments for them
selves. If but one experiment in
every five made at the college
farm is success, the people of
Delaware will be amply repaid for
the money invested in its upkeep.
and the institution will gain much
by the farms successful Milford
Chronicle.

Still another hunkey in shoul-
der-straps disgracing the service
Nthe Army this tine--Col. JOS
ooh Garrard, commandant OF the
nos oost at Fort Myer, Va, who says
soldier in the ranks-no matter
how worthy his record-who has
tbe misfortune to be a tailor's son
and a lew at that, is not fit to as
sociate with such fine gentlemen
os the kunnel himself and his fel-
low cads!
"Why, the vulgah fellah has
,nended me pawnts and is he
,roDer person to-ah-mess with
rs BAN gentlemen-a Jew tailor,
q nevah! nevah!" protests this
1a1adalah Pinafore warrior, who,
we suspect, never smelt anything
like battle burned powder in all
his life. and would .aint if he did.
The four bars OF his Colonels
rank are sinister, every one Of
then7 and his dishonored uniform
should be stripped from him and
he sent to the post guard house,
senteced to do tailoring for say,
about five years.
What aggravates the shame OF
this official snobbery is the fact
that the ambitious young soldier
in question having failed to secure
an appointment at West Point,
and seeking a chance on his merits
as man and soldier to earn promo
tion, had enlisted and served three
wears in the ranks, making a good
record in his honorable attempt
to deserve promotion-a worthy
ambition, worthily exercised! But
that doughty Kernel Gerard,
with his nicely manicured fingers
in the air pipes out that
"The applicant is a son Of
Joseph Bloom of Jewish per-
suasion who is now, and has
for a number of years been
TAILOR at this post!

tinet, as ignorant as narrow, never

that ambitious tailor wko perhaps
made clothes for just such cads as
the Colonel and yet who left his
lap-board and needles to seat
himself in the chair of the CHIEF
magistry OF this Nation
Wonder if the conceited Colonel
ever heard of that President, be-
loved and innrotal, who was a

Absence makes the heart grow
