Breton Woods, N. H., to this
city.
Mrs. Rogers has been i'll ever
since the death of her husband.
She went to Breton Woods in
the hope of getting better, but in
stead became worse. Her physi-
clans ordered her back to the city.
Mrs. Rogers was Abbie T. Gift
ford when she met the oil mag
nate. Rogers was then clerk in
his fathers store at So week.
When Rogers got his first outside
job as brakeman on a railroad at
$116 a day they were married.
Their home life was ideal during
the 40 years between that time
and the death of the oil man.
WHY GAS BILLS ARE HIGH
g Did it ever strike you that your
gas bills were a trife high? Oh,
it did, did it?
Well, you'll be glad to hear that
you've probably been paying for
gas you never used.
William D. Wilcox, >city gas in
spector, has just compiled few
interesting figures.
He says that over 81 per cent
of the gas meters in Chicago are
over 2 per cent fast; that the aver
age meters are about 5 per cent
fast, and that only 2 per cent are
slow.
The gas companies seem to be
some strong on the sure-thing
game. How they ever came to
allow even 2 per cent of their

WOMAN GOT A LESSON
INCIDENT OF TWO GIRLS AND
THE STOLEN PEONIES.
How the STABILITY Dressed Man I'D
ministered Gentle But Effective Re-
proof to the Owner of the
Piilaged Brooklyn Garden.

Two poorly dressed little girls
stood outside the garden of a hand
some residence in st. Marks avenue,
Brooklyn, and gazed longingly at the
beautiful white and scarlet peonies
that bloomed within. Finally the
temptation became irresistible, and
the elder, scaling the low hedge that
separated the garden from the street,
proceeded to help herself to the flow
ers.
She had two of the blooms in her
hands and was reaching for a third
when a smartly dressed woman
dashed out of the house and seized
her.
Now, you little thief, I'm going
to turn you over to the police" she
said.
"Oh, please, missus," begged the
child, %groveling at her feet; "oh,
please don't get me arrested! only
wanted a few-and they looked SO
pretty"
But the woman was adamant. She
was slowly dragging the child to-
ward the sidewalk and repeating her
threat about the police when a shah
by looking man came along. He
gazed at the two for an instant, while
an expression of panied surprise
came over his face. Then, raising his
dingy derby politely, he inquired
what the trouble was.
Nothing" snapped the woman, "ex.
cept that l caught this little thief
stealing my peonies. And I'm going
to teach her a lesson if I have to take
her tc the station house myself"
A curious look came into the shah
by mans eyes. Then he began to
tumble in his pockets. A few seconds
later he held out to the woman an
open palm on which two dimes re-
posed.
IF thesell pay for what damage
she's done, I wish you'd take them
and let her CO." he said.
An indignant blush spread over the
woman's face, and then it deepened-
into a blush of shame. She relaxed
her grasp on the little girls arm and
there she paused and turned toward
the shabby one, who still held the two
dimes in his hand:
I'm sorry," she said, "and-I
thank you."-New York Evening
Mail.

Aoe Of Valleys.

The erosive power Of water is hard
to estimate with any degree Of exact.
ri A method Of computing the
probable age Of valleys will therefore
be welcome, even II the figures may
seem to some open question. A
French scientist has lately reported
the results Of his studies Of the eros
i've action of an ancient spring in the
valley Of Lauroux. near Lodeve.
France. This spring produces about
three and one-half quarts Of water q
second. and in every cubic meter Of
water (35,314 cubic feet), the scien-
fist found 1862 grams Of calcareous
sand. He estimates that the spring
erodes PAT pounds Of rock daily. or
over IS tons annually. In the course
Of a century . stream Of this size
would be able to hollow out q circular
cave 81 feet in diameter and 50 feet
in length. At the end Of 1000 years
1t would make . valley 80 feet deep.
81 feet wide and 23S feet long.

Got Even With Old crusty.

Old Crusty, as his name implied.
was not a man who was gifted with
geniality. His neighbors, in fact, had
as little to do with him as possible.
However, when a new visitor came to
the town and moved into the house
next to him. and knowing not of Mr..
Crusty's little failing, there was like
ly to be trouble soon.
Wanting a book n day. he politely
inquired Of Mr.. c. If he might borrow
one from his library.
You're welcome to read books in
my library" was the ungracious re-
ply, "but l make 1t my rule never to
let any leave my house."
Some weeks later Mr.. C. was in
need of a lawnmower, and he asked
the loan Of his neighbours.
Certainly" was the reply. "But
since l make it a rule never to let 1t
leave my lawn. you will be obliged to
use It here!"-Answers. London.
