TURNING HIM DOWN
He was a theatrical lover, and she didn't like
his style in the least for he was constant in his
devotion, which made matters worse. She had
tried gentle means to get rid of him, but he had
disregarded them with painful persistency.
Dear one" he exclaimed, hurling himself
tragically at her feet, "IIlove you! Ny life is
yours! Will you take il?
She did not look like murderess, but she
responded, with calm determination:
'I will"
He gazed at her rapturously.
Don't do that, she begged, drawing back
from him as if in horror. 81 have taken your
life as you requested me to do, and you are
henceforth to all intents and purposes dead"
He seemed dazed.
"I do not" she continued, turning aside,
"desire to have dead person in the house, and
if you do not 60 away at once shall send for
an undertaken and have you removed to tn
nearest cemetery"
Then the dreadful situation in which his
own precipitate folly had placed him was re-
vealed, and he removed himself with prompt
ness and dispatch.

a las Camaras ell Gobernador Cotton.
Al COnsej0 EjecutiU0 y
Ia Cdmdra de Delegad0s
Uno de los mas importantes proyec-
tos del DepartamentO de instruction, es
el establecimiento Ell las escuelas rura-
les de la lsla de cursos adecuadOs de
agricultural. Esto requiere la instruc-
ci0n teorica practica de los maestros
ruralcs en- los principles que sirven de
fundamento la ciencia agr1cola Y en-
ia aplicaci0n de esos principles las
condiciones V necesidades locales Sc
han hechO las preparedness necesarias
para dar esa instruction te0rica Y prac-
tica en- la Escuela Normal Insular de
Rio Piedras, Y es muy conveniente que
tantOs maestros rurales como fuere. po-
sihle, reciban los beneficios de esa ms
trucci0n, 4 fin de Que sll vez puedan
transmitir debidamente s1ls alumnos
los conocimientos que adquieran.
La Secci0n 55 de la Ley Escolar Com
pilada, autoriza a los maestros rurales
para tomar esos cursos, pero no sc han
asignado especialmente, segfn determi-
na la ley, los fondos que Sc requieren
para que los maestros puedan approve
charse de esa autorizaci0n 81 bien Sc
incluyo cantidad suficiente para ese y
Otros fines en- la asignaci0n que sc hizo
en- la Ley de Presupuesto de 1913-1914
para sueldos de maestros de las escuelas
pilbicas. De aqu1 que, aunque no es
necesario tomar fondos adicionales de
la Tesorerla Insular para ese prop0sito.
es cOnvenlente que Sc transfera una
cantidad adecuada, que no sea menor
de $35, 200, del credito votado va para
sueldos de maestros de las escuelas ptl-
blicas, a un fondo especial del cual
puedan pagarse los sueldos de los macs
trOs que tOmen los cursOs agr1colas Ell
la Escuela Normal Insrllar. Esto pom
dra al Comisionado de instruction en-
condolences de elegir, de acuerdo con
los preceptos de la Ley Escolar Compi-
lada, cinco maestros de cada uno de los
cuarenta un distritos escolares exis-
tentes, para que cada uno de esos macs
tros reciba en- la Escuela Normal In
slllar durante ell ano proximo, un curse
de tres meses en- agriculture y m6todos
de ensenanza.
Ell merito de este plan es tan eviden-
te, que creo que no tengo necesidad
mas que de lamar la atenci6n de la

para que quede debidamente resuelto

the brothers had amassed a comfort

a little over fifty; Abner, his brother,
who was always regarded as the
reckless one, was foTty-f1ve. Both
were confirmed bachelors, and if they

"Woman" jelled Daniel in horror.
why, women make the best book
keepers" answered Abner. They're
honester, and they attend to business
where a man would be thinking all
the time of-of sports and moving
pictures and-and horse racing"
This was the climax of wickedness
in both the brothers eyes. So, in the
end, the experiment of a woman
bookkeeper was reluctantly decided
on. And thus, in due course of time,
Miss Marjory Brown took her seat
at the desk behind the grille and be-
gan to take financial charge of the
brothers affairs. --
Both Abner and Daniel had antici-
pated troublesome time in posting
her as to the affairs of the house, but,
to their delight, Miss Brown proved
as intelligent as she was attractive.
In fact, if either Abner or Daniel had
known Just how attractive Miss
Brown was, it is probable that they
would timorously have decided to
seek elsewhere for a bookkeeper.
When Miss Brown answered their adj
vertisement her long, dark hair was
tightly coiled on the top of her head,
and she wore prim tailor-made suit;
but after the first week Miss Browns
hair was .fashionably coiffured, and
her dresses, though simple, were of

The ending of Daniel Patterson's
story fell with dismal effectiveness
upon the ears of Abner, his brother.
Old Eph Jones, who had kept the
books for the importing firm ever
since its inception by Hiram Patter-
son, the father of the two brothers,
had been disabled by old age.
Of course, he would be pensioned,
but the question was, who would

take his place? The Patterson bust
ness was an old-fashioned one, trad
ing with few wealthy, old-fashioned
families. There was nothing modern
about the little warehouse, tucked
away in an obscure corner of the
downtown section of the metropolis.
A hustling young American would
have been like a bull in china shop.
AS a matter of fact, the Patterson
business rarely paid its way. But
