He saluted Captain Thorne. Good
evening. sir"
Thorne, of course, returned the cour-
teous salute Of his junior.
Lieutenant Maxwell" he said pleas
antly, as Mrs. Varney followed Lieuten-
ant Maxwell into the hall.
Now remember, you are to come
some time when duty doesn't call you
away so soon" she said, as he bowed
himself out
Trust me not to forget that, Mrs.
Varney," said the lieutenant, as he dis
appeared on the porch.
Captain Thorne and Edith were left
alone. The girl stepped over to
small table on which stood a vase of
roses, and, with somewhat nervous
hands, she busted herself arranging
them. The young officer watched her
in silence for little while, the mo-
ments tense with emotion
Shall see Mrs. Varney again?" he
began at last.
"Oh, suppose so, but not now. /

How is he?"

Yes" said the girl.
Il have very little time to stay

"Oh-not long?" asked Edith.

We'll, do you know" she looked at
him archly, Il believe you will have
more time than you really think you

that way, wouldn't it?" she continued
as she played with the flower in her
hand
Yes, but 1t won't come out that
way" said Thorne, as he stepped
closer to her
You don't know" she faltered as
Thorne drew the flower from her and
took her hand in his. They stood there

her hand away. We'll, 1t makes no

"THE GRANARY OF
NORTH AMERICA" /"
GOVERNOR sULzER SAYS THAT
or WESTERN CANADA.


The close ties OF friendship exist
Ing between the United States and
Canada we're dwelt upon Ia addresses
by Premier Robert l.. Borden, OF Can.
ada, and Governor Suizer, at the an.
nual dinner OF the University Club OF
/ Albany.
Canada and the United states.s
said Premier Borden, have a common
heritage IN the language. the litera
ture, the laws, the institutions and the
traditions which have come down to
them from the men OF bygone days.
Perhaps no more instructive object
lesson ever has been given 10 the
world than the four thousand miles OF
undefended boundary line from the
Atlantic to the Pacific, which bears
silent but eloquent testimony 70 the
mutual confidence and respect of the
two nations. Time viii shortly place
upon the brow OF each nation the lau-
rel OF one hundred years of peace. Il
matters not so much as to the form
Of the outward celebration, but let us
hope that its full significance may
sink deep into the hearts OF both ma
tions, and that. whether north or south
OF the boundary, We may stand with
bowed and reverent heads, offering
grateful thanks for the Divine blessing
OF peace and earnest prayers that in
the century TO come, mutual confidence,
goodwill and respect may truly ami
mate the ideals and aspirations Of both
nations"
Referring to the natural resources
possessed by the United States and
Canada, particularly along the st.
Lawrence River, the premier urged
that they be preserved and developed
for the people"
Governor Sulzer predicted that tho
Great Canadian Northwest is designed
to become. before long, the granary OF
North America"
Many Of our best citizens, I regret
to say" said the governor, "are leav-
ing the States of the west and goiEs
into the Canadian northwest, because
OF the fertility Of its soil. the lib
erality of the Canadian government
and the ability of those people TO bet,
ter their conditions here.
I'VE should extend to them a help
ing hand in their onward march OF
progress. Instead of closing our doors
by tariff barriers against these coun-
tries and their products, in my opinion,
we should open them wider and do
everything in our power to facilitate
closer commercial relations. We want
their products and they want our prod.
ucts, and all restrictions to prevent q
fairer and freer exchange Of goods,
wares and merchandise should, in so
far as possible, be eliminated. ."-Ad-
vertisement.

offered the laborer fat, black cigar
and walked off with his face a solid
pink shine Of satisfaction.
The laborer watched the man until
he wound around a path Then he
tucked his cigar into the pocket of his
coat that was hanging on tree
branch and went back to the wire
grass. And the only word he had to
say was:
"GeeI"

Stranger Wanted Whack at the Wire Grass Turf

A LABORER was digging up the wire
"A grass which was already asserting
itself in the new green velvet Of a
park up Capitol Hill way. A we'll
dressed middle-aged man, who was
passing, paused to say:
Let me have turn at that spade,
won't youS"
The laborer-a white man--straight-
ened up, grinned politely, but kept his
spade.
Say, hand over that shovel for a
minute, son. / haven't had whack at
this sort Of fun for Is years. Been liv-
ing on the desert, where there isn't
a blade of civilized grass in days

No good-natured laborer could pos
sibly withstand an appeal like that,
especially with no park guards around,
so the spade was handed over.
The well dressed man rammed it in
the sod with an expertness that
showed he had lived in Gods country

continued Edith halfserlously. "They

Thorne slowly inclined his head.
Maxwell also bowed

"Yes?" answered the other, who
seemed to be man of few words.
In fact, captain, there is a gentle

mighty anxious to pick fight with

Really" exclaimed Captain Thorne,
smiling somewhat sarcastically; pick

"The war office, sir" said Lieuten-
