nance was passed ordering shell road
way eight feet wide on South Main

Ole church, thence west TO Pine, and
out Pine, through the new street dividing
the Williams grove TO the intersection
of the shelled county road and the Be-
Vile hard road. There was but one dis
scnting vote to this ordinance, that OF
w. B. Campbell. The work of making
the new shell road has been entrusted
TO lanes Padgett, Jr., who has had some
experience in road building for The
county.
For this road the council appropriated
$500, the balance having been pledged
bv private subscription. Work on the

The council also by unanimous con
sent named the new street running eaS'
and west along the north line oil INC
Williams grove, Read Avenue, in honor
of Mr.. NJ. II. Read, who donated Inc
lopd-or all except two blocks by Hon

Shafter as he drank his morning cot
fee. EVERY holiday ought to be called
Labor day so far as l am concerned.
DO you know what I've got to do to-
morrow, Helen?" He put the question
aggressively. and his maiden aunt look
ed pityingly at Mrs. Shafter.
mo, dear; what have you to do to-
morrow asked Helen serenely.
"Do" sputtered her husband, pass
ing the toast to Aunt Electa with q
savage lunge to emphasize his remark.
ITO begin with there's the lawn to
NOV, the chicken pen to clean out, the
cellar to whitewash-if you wouldn't
begin housekeeping SO early, Helen, a
fellow might have a show once in
awhile-oversee that the six tons OF
winter coal gets in all right and clean
up after the coal man." "s
Later in the day, after Mr.. Shafter
had sunk into his Sunday afternoon
nap in the hammock, Aunt Electa
called Helen into the summer house on
the lawn and talked long and earnest
ly to that young woman.
Certainly, dear Aunt Electa," agreed
Helen sweetly. James always retires
early on Sunday, and we can have our
own way about everything"
"For a married woman that will be
an unusual treat" And Aunt Electa' s
eyes twinkled merrily.
'"Then let me hasten its coming
cried Helen blithely. II shall have an
early supper and hustle James off to
bed" .1@.
When James Shafter awoke the next
morning he heard the unmusical clat
ter of a lawn mower and shifted the
fragrance Of freshly cut grass. ''Good
Lord, it does seem as though Finley
might let beggar rest little in the
morning. 1t can't be more than {
O'clock" He craned his neck to look

Before he could reach the doorway
she had gone. He sank into a chair
before the desk and buried his face in
his arms
Lights began to appear in the streets
below; Office doors were closed and
locked as men hurried home to greet
their families. A strange silence
brooded over the great building, while
he still sat in darkness and alone.
Brisk steps resounded along the mar

as Douglas Cameron walked up the

his tread. A light was streaming from

minute. Still his opposite neighbours
busy lawn mower was an unpleasant
reminder that his own grass needed
shaving that morning and after that
was accomplished stretched the tasks
he had enumerated the day before &
chicken house, cellar and coal man.
Its an imposition growled Mr..
Shafter and turned over in bed.
The sun shining through chink in

last, and another glance at the clock
assured him that three hours had melt
ed away. It was now 9. He bounced
out Of bed and into his morning bath,
while his mind calculated how he
could divide the remainder Of the
short end holiday into working shifts
and squeeze out time enough to read
his newspaper. ~.
He found delicious breakfast
awaiting him in the cool and shaded
dining room, and as he ate he com
planned bitterly Of the noise Finley
had made that morning with the de-
tested lawn mower.
Evoke me up ahead of time, Helen;
and l dropped of TO-. sleep and never
awoke again until half an hour ago.
It's going to be scorcher too.'''s
1T is hot already" agreed Helen
cheerfully.
Shafter kissed her pink cheek and
murmured appreciation OF the break
fast and so went out on the front nj
azza to survey the ragged lawn: he
had left the night before. II suppose
may as well pitch in now as any

short. ..:
Instead Of the untidy lawn he had
worried over there stretched a smooth
expanse of velvety turf. neatly trim
med about the flower beds and newly
wet with the revolving sprinkler.
Great Jovev' muttered Shafter, and
sought his wife, noting that his oppo-
site neighbor's grass was untouched
as yet.
"Helen, who the dickens cut the
lawn he demanded, puzzled.
II did," she returned Its great
sport. Such a time as I had! l was
afraid you would wake up
Armed with hoe and shovel. he en-.
tered the chicken yard and prepared to
make the abode Of these Industrious
tenants quite trim and tidy. but some
magic hand had forestalled him here
also, for the chicken house had been
