SEED FOR FREE
DISTRIBUTION

The following from Congressman
Cooke, at Washington, is self explana-
tory;
I'm view of the fact that the allot-
ment of garden and flower seeds for
the spring of 1911 was made to my pre-
decessor under the rule, rs early as
November, 1910, / cannot make gen
eral distribution. No doubt Mr.. Tou-
Velle has supplied the people of the
Fourth district with these seeds for
this season, but thinking that perhaps
in making this distribution some one
might have been accidentally omitted
or overlooked, | made an arrangement
with tho Agricultural Department to
furnish me limited special allotment,
to provide such persons with them.
~ felt that the best way to make this
specia! distribution was to send the
seeds to the newspapers of the district
and ask that they kindly give notice
through the press, of the nature and
extent of this special distribution, and
advise that persons who have not been
supplied can be accommodated by call
ing at your office.
81 have taken the liberty of sending
you by mail bag containing approxi-
mately fifty packages, to enable you to
satisfy the wants of applicants. | trust
this plan Of distribution will be agree
able to and work no hardship upon
you. Anyone inquiring for any par
ticular variety of seed not found among
the allotment, may advise me of his
wants and l shall take the matter up
with the Agricultural Department and
feel satisfied that the same will be
furnished"
Readers of The Democrat who desire
any Of these packages of seeds can
have them by calling. No 'string" to
them. First to call, first served.

ries. and the homelinesses. of the sea
sons went marching by. Flowers
bloomed; bees hummed, little violet
colored butterflies wavered between
him and the sun. And among them
all moved Henrietta, pulling here, clip
ping there; II It were June, the pinksi
II II were October the chrysanthe'
mums-especially those that looked
like disks of white ivory, for these
the town folks bought TO carry out to
the cemeteries.
He wandered out to the orchard,
striking into the narrow path that
zigzagged downward under the bare
trees to the highway beyond And
of a sudden, pink and white and
heaven sweet, blossomed the apple
boughs to left and TO right OF him. For
an instant II was his wedding day,
and he and Henrietta were strolling
hand in hand across that rosy acre
of fairyland. An instant! In another
the long, melancholy years of his life
passed before him. He felt himself
beaten, defrauded, betrayed, Then
there came to him another vision OF
Henrietta, Henrietta grown dumb and
silenteyed, with the remnant of her
dark beauty clinging to her like the
petals of a rain-drenched rose, Out
of those long and melancholy years
had she not brought even less than
he? With a sort of dim added sense
he began to realize her struggle with
the stirless weather Of her existence;
he saw its vacant ways, her bitterness
at him, her rigid yet shamed accept
ance of the lot she had made and
chosen for herself. And out Of her
gray life what was left but q strip
of earth in a quiet country church
yard? For now she was cold, cold and
dead!
A mans footstep, heavy and halting,
sounded without in the road
That you, Andy?" said Adam Mar.
tin.
Yes, Adam"
A Whit of tobacco smoke came pun
gently through the dark. Adam strobe
forward and stretched a slow hand
across the palings
I've been down to the store for Clar-
issy. As soon as seen you l said:
Maybe Andy has some stun he'd like
me to take to market for him day
after tomorrow"
I'm going myself, Adam"
Adams pipe made a tiny scarlet
eye in the gloom. The LONELINESS Of
a familiar odor was in the air. Some
thing wistful stirred in the mems
hearts.
Whats John doing?"
Sitting back there in the kitchen"
He's a good son" said Adam, in a
Misunderstanding way He waited as
though expecting an answer. None
came. He moved clumsily away.
Good night, Andy."
Good night, Adam"
The gate opposite changed shut.
Presently footsteps came distantly
from between the rows of lilac bushes.
A good son! Andrew Shafer's lips
trembled with the secrets Of years.
He spoke out plainly. He amt my
son!"
Not sound was in the road up or
down. 1t lay lonely, forgotten. The
instinct to hide, the habit of half a
lifetime, grew uppermost in the mans
mind. MY Cod" he said out there
in the dark. He stopped and hushed
his voice to q whisper. Il didn't
want to tell that!"

He can all our sorrows heal.

MADERO HAS FEAR

Dictator for Europe.

Ell Paso, May &.-"I am glad said
Francisco 1. Madero, Provision President
Of Mexico. when he heard that President
Diaz had rendered his resignation. But, -
he added, Il will say that Diaz has acted
in good faith only when the Congress
Of Mexico has accepted the resignation
and Diaz is on his way to Europe. Then
we will say that Diaz truly wants to see
peace in Mexico.
The people are only beginning to taste
the joys of free speech. and there will be
more trouble II h is not out of office In

Madero to-day ordered a resumption of
hostilities in the tSate of Coahuila to
force his selection as governor into the
executive chair.
Coahuila was one of the states con-
ceded to the insurrectos in the reappor-
tionment of governors under the peace
agreement. Fenustiano Pine Carranza
is the man selected for the governorship
but the state legislature refused yester-
day TO accept him. Madero ordered his
l2,O0 men in Coahuila to march at once
on Saltillo, the capital, and take posses
sion.
The town is occupied by federals but
Madero does not believe they will resist,
as the movement is only against the leg
islators. II there IS resistance, however,
the insurrectos are ordered to fight the
federals.
Meantime, Madero is going on with
preparations to send an army to Lower
California to annihilate the Magonistas
and socialists who are making war on
that territory.
The insurrecto army will leave here
Sunday overland. and will be Joined in
