him, since it was so like the look
which he had worn for the first
few months after his arrival. He
had never had the courage to
speak to her.
That odor was very appetizing.
He opened his door a little. Then
he saw that her door was ajar
also, and, as he went softly out
became face to face with her. Her
hair was disheveled and her face
red from bending over her gas

Celebration.

In memory OF the day he left the
farm ID Tennessee, thirty-eight years
ago the 18th day Of January, Mr.. w D.
Reeves celebrated this anniversary last
evening with a delightful dinner party
for his family and few neighbors, who,
With him, had once known the Joys,
likewise incenveniences, OF a country
life.
The beautiful miniature farm with
its farmhouse, barns and freshly plow-
cd fields Of grain, spreading over the
long table, held a miniature lake IN the
center, surrounded by messy bank Of
ferns and grasses where the cows were
drinking and the ducks swimming;
even the frog was there to leap il iss
crystal waters. Not thing but the
country air and the broad horizon was
missing from this ideal farm. The
horses, cows, sheep, and the meadows,
wagons, gates and fences, festooncd
with vines, were all there, even the au-
tomobile that has become necessity
on model farm.
II must have been sprngtime or glo-
rious summer on this iarm--the earth

young rabbits hidden amcng the BUSH

inmate as 10 be present as II not only the
farmer and bis farm hands had been
busy, but that landscape gardener had
touched il here and there with artistic
effect, making one feel as if the farm
must Do an oasis ia the desert Of life,
Mr.. Reeves said, such were not the
Of things he had left on
the farm as d boy, but the chit
dren thought they would like to Try
life on farm planned and perfected
according to the model arranged by
their mother. The place cards were Of
bark, pierced with miniature hoe.
The several courses Of this splendid
dinner were fauItlessly served, Here's
to the farm and to Mr.. Reeves, and
hoping that he apd his family may live
to celebrate this anniversary again, and
again. aud may the farm continue to
produce such men. Helena World.

Pal Moore and Owen Moran both
claimed today that they won last
nights ten-round no-decision bout at
the Fairmount A. c. and each is able
to cite local sporting editors as au-
thOrity for his claim.
The scribes were far from being
a unit on the outcome of the mill The
majority agreed that Moran had
shade, however. One well-knovn
sporting writer. insists the affair was
a draw and his opinion was shared
by a great many of the spectators at
the ringside
Moran led during the early rounds.
He carried the fight to Moore through
out, but was frequently rocked by
straight lefts from the Philadelphian,
who showed to better advantage at
long range boxing. In the tenth
round. both boys fought furiously, ex-
changing blows at short range, first
one and then the other having the
advantage.
