BY Louise HeiIgers.

TIE WAS a son of the house She
n was a housemaid. But he found
IL her alluring- enough in her stiff
gowns of cotton, the badge of servi-
tude pinned neatly in her hair.
Home for the long vacation, it
pleased him to have some one close at
hand fair enough and young enough to
make pleasant love to. Stray half
hours passed quickly so. The girls he
met in his mothers drawingroom
seemed to him strangely dull and col
orless after cheeks as round and red
as hers.
Now and again the folly Of such
filtration passed before his mind like
a cloud before the sun. He had no in
tention of ever letting 1t become more
than a Irritation. Sometimes he took
himself to task for breaking simple
girls heart. He was quite certain
within himself that sooner or later he
would break her heart He would
have been surprised had he known
how little did she think of him
True, the thoughts in her head buzzed
buSily as the bees among the wall
flowers. but they had no connection
with the holiday making son of the
house.
Pretty red brown girls in subordin-
ate positions are so used to being
kissed that they may be forgiven for
growing cold and Indifferent to the
giVerS of the kisses.
When. on her afternoon out, she met
him walking with a girl whom it was
common gossip he rather wanted to
marry, 1t was ShyneSS that made her
dart suddenly behind the kindly pro-
lection of a bridge-not, as he thought,
jealousy.
What she did think was that per-
haps she might yet attain the long de-
ferred wish OF her heart through him.
The next time he found her busting
an already dustless room and flung a
careless arm about her, she made bold
to ask him.
He stared at her in establishment

She raised shy eyes to this. So blue
were they that he thought suddenly of
warm June skies. For Sundays" she

Canada Also Progressing.
The Canadian government is taking
great interest in protecting its forests
and in replanting areas that have been
denuded by the lumbermen- IN the
past 10 years the one government
ed nearly twenty million seedlings and
cuttings among some fifteen thouS-
and settlers, the average number to
each settler being about 1850. Dur
ing the past year the distribution ap-
prOximated two and a quarter million
The distribution is as free as the gar
den seed distribution by the United
States department of agriculture. II
has been found that the average cost
per tree thus distributed is approx
mately one cent
What VIII Remedy Blight!
The most difficult problem that yet
has arisen in American forestry work
is to find a remedy for the chestnut
tree blight that is now sweeping over
the chestnut forests of the Appala-
chan region. Pennsylvania already
has invested $25O,O00 trying to combat
the ravages of the blight, but how to
check it is as much of an unsolved
problem as before. 1t is estimated that
the loss already entailed in that
state approximates S2O,000,0OO. Some
are recommending that the chestnut
forests be cut down to save the lumber
in them. The forest service Of the
United States is taking the matter up
to try to find out about the habits
of the parasite that causes the blight
and means for checking it.
Gypsy Moths Being Destroyed.
The welcome announcement is now
made that the little parasites imported
by the United States government to
prey upon the gypsy moth are at last
on the job, and that they are killing
out the gypsy moth so rapidly that
it seems certain that the spread OF
that dangerous enemy of the forests
has been checked. Another, moth,
called from its spots the leopard moth,
has made its appearance in a number
of eastern localities, but the same sort
of a campaign will be Waged against
it. Nothing that yet has been done
in the field of entomology has served
to encourage forest people more than
triumph over the gypsy moth-which
a one time threatened to extend its
ruinous sway all over the country.

LOVERS.

A cry On The moor, a dead-Hmoed tree,
\ moon in a shaggy mist,
A sob on the wind for one who is gone,
A lad for the last time kissed.
A cry on the moor. a rasping bough,
rope half-snagSed on a limb. "
A mutter OF hOOf beats dying away
An ache in my heart for him.
A cry on the moor, a frightened wind,
A moaning out in the night.
And nothing I see but a sagging shade
High in the ghOstly light
A cry on the moor, an echo low,
wall in the shadows dim.
I watch at the window alone in the dusk,
But never again for him
4 cry on the moor. a creaking limb,
A grave with the white dew wet
They worked their will on the lad loved,
But the Christ will not forget,

In 1898, during the yellow fever in

pOrary change of heart, and when the
citizens fled in dismay, houses were
left empty, and the streets deserted
lay unburied for days where they had
died, Stephen Girard, with Peter Helm,
in that season of dread, offered them
selves as managers of hospitals, and
when nurses could not be had for any
price. Stephen Girard turned nurse,
and for the first time he opened his
purse literally, sparing no expense,
managing, not only the interior of the
hospital, but going through the city
seeking the sick and bringing them to
the hospital The most universally de-
spiSed man had now shown himself a

wrapped them in sheets on which they
rad died and with camphOred handker-

them out to the burial ground and
placed them in the trench. He did this
noble work for so days, sustained by
Peter Helm.
At so he began to lose sight of his

attempting to cross a crowded street,

~ ITTSBURG is a eOal-black metro
~ polls, with flame trimmings, and IN
habited by joy-riders on the steel
tariff
Over 100000 people live in Pittsburg
and several hundred millionaires, scat
tered around the world live on it. Pitts
burg makes most of the steel for the
universe and has steel mills instead OF
cabbage patches for suburbs. Ten ship
loads OF iron ore are mixed with ten
trainloads of coal every day and the re-
suit is a ring of permanent volcanoes
around the city. When these are in full
blast they form a Great Red Way, of
which Pittsburg is much prouder than
New York is of her Gay White Way. As
matter of fact Pittsburg Red Way
is largely responsible for New York's
White Way. A millionaire fully equipped
is turned out of her steel mills every
time the sun sets and a Pittsburg
millionaire gets into trouble in New
York every time the sun rises.
Pittsburg is located in the western
part of Pennsylvania, where the Ale
gheny and Monongahela rivers Join and
boil their combined names down into
the Ohio. Originally Pittsburg had an
annex called Allegheny City, which was
a desert of front doors, without post
office, railroad station ar theater But
it followed the example of its steel trust
and benevOlently assimilated its rival,
thus becoming the eighth city in size in
the country. 1t climbs the steel hills
from the river banks in all directions
and has made their SUBMITS bristIe with
20 story buildings. 1t is well built but
poorly ventilated, and on damp, cloudy
days looks like the inside of a cistern
with the lid on.

Probabilities Now In American COaI

Cleveland. o., March 26.-Inabil.
ity to agree again marked the at.
tempts of the bitumnious coal miners
the operators to fix a two-year wage
and working agreement to take effect
April in western Pennsylvania
Ohio. Indiana and Illinois.
When the conference adjourned
until tomorrow, each side stood
where 1t stood a week ago, the miners
declaring that unless they secured O
10 per cent increase In pay and
shorter working hours they would not
work after Saturday night, when
their present scale expires. and the
operators asserting that they will not
grant the demands.
"A strike is. preferable to the
granting of the miners' demands. We
can not grant wage increase, even
II all other demands are waived In
other words, the operators can not
yield, and II the miners do not. a
strike will follow"
That was the statement issued to-
-ssRy- on behalf OF the bituminous op-
orators by J. c. Kolsen OF Terre
Haute. who added that the operators
will make no other offer than to ex-
tend the present wage agreement for
another two years.
The differences, therefore. involv-
Ing the possibility that more than
100000 miners will quit work when
their present wage scales expire to-
day appeared to be no nearer a set.
