PROLOGUE.

1t was in the woods that the
girl o. the L~imberlost found her
education, her love, her happi-
ness and other good things, so,
rightly, the air of the trees is in
this story of her life. Here is a
tale for lovers of the hoods and
for others who like a simple story
well told by n who knows the
forest, can tell about home
folks" and can find the. interest
in everyday lives. Through these
pages Tutter the brilliant butter
fly of tangled romance, the more
sober butterfly, no less beautiful,
Of noble, quiet lives, we'll lived,
and the gray moth of sorrow
borne needlessly for many years.
And if you listen closely you
may hear. the buzz of the little,
busy existence Of Billy, a young
ster north your knowing.

THE GERMS OF WEAKENED
GOVERNMENT IN OUR TOWNS.
Froe Municipalities of the Things That
Attract Their.

Microbes of diseased and of weaken.
ed administration appear in American
municipalities, whatever the form Of
government may be.
What attracts these microbes to en-
ter the municipal circulation unless it
be municipal contracts. supplies, fran
chises. licenses. law and regulation
enforcement and what patronage re-
mains over and above civil service
laws? These we may call municipal!
riches and. when used for politics.
municipal plumber.
1t is proposed to take these attrac-
lions out Of politics.
To prepare a safe place to put the
control of municipal contracts, etc..
WI should bring about
The complete separation Of the po-
litical policy determining functions
from the expert administrative func-
lions, placing each in the hands Of a
different set Of persons.
Tenure during good behavior and eff
fciency for the expert administrators
and short terms for the policy deter
mining officials.

though making original appointments
to the higher where necessary.
Removal only after the publicity OF
an open hearing.
The right Of the expert administra-
tors. both individually and acting as
a board, to have their proposed policies
and budgets made public.
The final determination of %appropria-
lions and policies by the political side
OF the municipal government.
Where policies. either detailed or gen.
eral. Of the political side differ from
those Of the expert the publication Of
thep political policies before the expert
is overridden.
With these preparations made it is
proposed to place in the hands Of the
permanent experts the control of mu-
n1clpal contracts, supplies. franchises,
licenses, the enforcement of law and
regulations, what patronage there may
be and all administrative details and
discipline.
Where the separation of these wholly
different functions is complete, as in
England, Germany and France, we see
efficiency and honesty. Where these
functions are mixed. as in America,
we see waste and corruption.
By such a plan of separation we
should secure
A career for experts in municipal adj
ministration.
Attraction for experienced men Of
high character and training.
A chance for promotion that will
draw capable young men into the low
er expert service.
Expert chiefs who would believe In
enforcing the merit system.
Municipal contracts honestly and eff
GENTLY made and strictly enforced.
Clean streets and better security for
the public health,
Getting a days work for a days pay.
More independent supervision and in
v~estigation by those in the political
branch b Il if the appointees were
their own friends.
A better system of public accounting.
Continuity of public works conceived
on broad plans.
More definite fixing of responsibility
between the political executive and ex-
pert administrators.
All of which would tend to more or
derly, efficient and honest administra-
ton.

Every one is SO nice to me in them,
it just sets me to wondering If in time
l could have made them be equally
friendly in the others"
Ellen looked at her Unexpectedly.
well. yes. 1 believe you could" she
announced Mt last. But it would have
taken time and heartache, and your
mind would have been less free to
work on your studies. No n is happy
without friends, and l just simply can't
study when l am unhappy"
That night the Bird Woman made the
last trip to the swamp. Every speci-
men she possibly could use had been
purchased at a fair price, and three
additions had been. made to the bank
book. carrying the total to q little past
$500. There remained the Indian rel
les to sell on Saturday. and Elnora had
secured the order to furnish material
for nature work for the grades. Life
suddenly grew very full. There was
the most excitingly interesting work
for every hour, and that work was to
pay high school expenses and start the
college fund. There was just n little
rift in her JOY. All of it would have
been so much better if she could have
told her mother and given the money
into her keeping. But the struggle to
get a start had been so terrible, FL
nora was afraid to take the risk.
When she reached home she only
told her mother that the last Of the
things had been sold that evening.
81 think" said Mrs. Comstock, "that
we will get Wesley to move that box
yer here back Of the garden for you.
There you are apt to get tolled farther
into the swamp than you intend to go,
and you might mire or something.
There ought to be just the same things
in u woods and along our swampy
places as there are in the Limberlost.
Can't you hunt your stuff here?"
II can try" said Elnora. 81 don't
know what l can find until 1 do. Our
woods are undisturbed, and there is a
possibility they might be wen better
hunting than the swamp. But l
wouldn't have Freckles' case moved
for the world. He might come back
some day and not like it. I've tried to
keep his room the best I could, and
taking out the box would make a great
hole in one side Of it. Store boxes
don't cost much. l will have Uncle
Wesley buy me one and set it up
wherever hunting looks the best early
in the spring. ! would feel safer at

That's the tassel Of the cornstalk,'
said Elnora, with a forced laugh.
The response was genuine. Every
n shouted. Sadie Reed blushed, but
she laughed also.
swell, It's beautiful" she said, ''es-
pecially the quilts. They are exactly
what l want l know I don't deserve
any kindness from you, but I do wish
you would tell me at whose store you
got those quilts"
"Gladly." said Elnora. You can't
get quilts like those at a store. They
are from q living bird. Phoebe Simms
gathers them in her orchard as her
peacocks shed them. They are wing
quilts from the males"
Then there was a perfect silence.
How was Elnora to know that not a
girl there would have told that?
Il haven't a doubt but I can get you
some." she offered. "She gave Aunt
Margaret a great bunch. and those are
part Of them. am quite sure she has
more and would spare some"
Sadie Reed laughed shortly. "You
needn't trouble" she said. II was fool
ed. ! thought they were expensive
quilts. l wanted them for. a twenty
dollar velvet tuque to match my new
suit. If they are picked off the ground,
really, couldn't use them"
"Only in spots." said Elnora. t'They
don't just cover the eartl. Phoebe
Simms' peacocks are the only ones
within miles of Onabasha, and they
moult but nee a year. If your hat
only cost 500 it's hardly good enough
for those quilts. You see, the AL
mighty made and colored those him
self, and he puts the same kind on
Phoebe Simms' peacocks that he put
on the head Of the family In the for
ests of Ceylon away back in the begin
ming. Any old manufactured quill from
New York or Chicago will do for your
little twenty dollar hat. You ought to
have something infinitely better than
that to be worthy Of quilts that are
made by the Creator,
How those girls did laugh! One of
them walked by Elnora to the audi
forum. sat with her during exercises
and tried to talk whenever she dared
to keep Elnora from seeing the curious
and admiring looks bent upon her.
For the brown eyed boy whistled, and
there was %pantomime Of all sorts go
ing on behind Elnora's back that day.
Happy with her books no one knew
how much she saw, and from her alb
sorption in her studies it was evident
she cared too little to notice. 1t soon
developed that to be ineonspicuous and
to work was all Elnora craved.
After school she went again to the
home of the Bird Woman, and togeth.
er they visited the swamp and took
away more specimens. This time Ell
nora asked the Bird Woman to keep
the money until noon of the next day,
when she would call for 1t and have 1t
added to her bank account. She SLOW
~ walked home, for the visit to the
swamp had brought back full force the
experience of the morning. Again and
again she examined the crude little
note. for she did not know what II

On vacant lots we will soon see a

hide tin cans. Anticipated bed springs,
deceased cats and all manner of evil.
1t has been observed that on vacant

The local postoffice authorities have
asked the federal department for an
appropriation for the purpose of car
rying on the work of installing mall
racks in the basement of the postotfice,
and for making other preparations for
the Christmas trade rush. The racks
are being constructed now under the
direction of Superintendent of the
Mails Lawter.
Acting Postmaster Sutherland said
yesterday that preparations for hand
ling the mail are about completed.
The wagon route to the west end will
be extended this year and annually
until the entire city liz supplied with
mail wagon delivery during the
Christmas holidays. The streets run
ming east and west are now SO sup
piled. two special carriers going with
each wagon and, taking the mail mark
ed for each block from the wagon, dis
tributes 1t on each side the street along
that block. At the next corner lie

mail marked for that block. The side
streets are taken care of by the sub
stations.

preceding Christmas seasons. There
are not as many packages. of course,
but the letter mail almost makes up
for the deficiency. When the Christ
mas rush comes we will need our en-
tire force of clerks and substitutes,
working hard. to keep from being
swamped.
MIR sutherland said that during the
first fifteen days OF the year, when
the parcel post system will be in oper-
alton for the first time, every postmas-
ter in the country Is expected to keep
an account Of the number OF pack
ages received and distributed, the
size of the packages. and the aver
age weight, together with other facts
that will be helpful 10 the postoffice
authorities in ascertaining the needs
of the system. The number OF ex-
ira men TO be allowed each office will
be based on these figures.

where he has been on a secret mission
for the past seven weeks, representing
The friends OF Felix Diaz, who was
recently condemned to be shot TO death
In Vera Cruz, as a rebel.
Scott said that he had EXPERIENCED
some difficulty in getting in touch
with Diaz at first, but after the lat
ter was removed from the municipal
prison in the Castle San Juan De
Ulloa. on an island in the Bay OF vera
Cruz. he managed to obtain an inter-
view with the rebel leader, This Is

meeting had been arranged between
tie two, Pascal carrying the bfaz
