CHAPTER XII.
Grace Captures the outposts.

Grace Captures the Outposts.
 The next evening there was choir practice at the Walnut Street church. Abbott Ashton, hesitating to make his nightly plunge into the dust-clouds of learning. paused in the vestibule to take a peep at Grace. He knew she never missed a choir practice, for though she could neither sing nor play the organ, she thought it her duty to set an example of regular attendance that might be the means of bringing those who could do one or the other.
 Abbott was not disappointed; but he was surprised to see Mrs. Jefferson in her wheel-chair at the end of the pew occupied by the secretary, while be- tween them sat Mrs. Gregory His sur prise became astonishment on discov- ering Fran and Simon Jefferson in the choir loft, slyly whispering and nib duty-for the choir was in the thross of . solo.
 Abbott. as if hypnotizsd by what he had seen. slowly entered the auditori- um. Trans keen eyes discovered him. and her face showed elish mischief. Grace. following Fran's eyes. found the cause of the odd smile, and beck oned to Abbott. Hamilton Gregory, following Grace's glance-for he saw no one but her at the practices, since she inspired him with deepest feryor- felt suddenly as If he had lost some thing; he had often experienced the same sensation on seeing Grace ap- preached by some unattached gentle man.
 Grace motioned to Abbott to sit be side her. with a concentration of at tention that showed her purpose of reaching definite goal unsuspected by the other.
 I'm so glad Fran has taken . place in the choir" Abbott whispered to Grace. And look at Simon Jefferson who'd have thought it!"
 Grace looked at Simon Jefferson:

she also looked at Fran, but her com pressed lips and reproving eye ex- pressed none of Abbotts gladness However, she responded with-"I am so glad you are here, Professor Ash ton. for I'm In trouble, and I can't de- eide which way 1t Is my duty to turn. Will you help me? I am going to trust you-it is a matter relating to MT. Gregory"
 Abbott was pleased that she should think him competent to advise her re- specting her duty; at the same time he regretted that her confidence re- lated to MT. Gregory.
 Professor Ashton," she said softly, "does my position as hired secretary to MT. Gregory carry with it the obli- gation to warn him of any misconduct in his household?"

 "Yes," said Abbott, "it is." He, paused, but she could not guess his emotions, for his face showed noth-i ing but a sort of blankness. T should like to take this up seriatim. You tell me you are eighteen years old?" And have had lots of experi-i ence" Your non-training; has it been theo- retcal or" i
 "Mercenary," Fran responded; "real lions, real bars, real spectators, real pay days"
 But, Fran" said Abbott helplessly, "I don't understand"
 But you're going to, before I'm done with you. I tell you, I'm show girl, a lion-trainer, jungler. I'm the famous Fran Nonpareil, and my car nival company has showed in most of the towns and cities of the United and gold stars and crimson sashes, kissing my hands to the audience. that I'm the real princess"
 Abbott was unable to analyze hfa real emotions, and his one endeavor was to hide his perplexity. He had always treated her as if she were old CT than the town supposed. hence the revelation of her age did not so much matter: but lion-training was so re- mote from conventions that it seemed in a way almost uncanny. It seemed to isolate Fran, to set her coldly apart from the people of his world.
 I'm going home." Fran said ae- ruptly.
 He followed her mechanically. too absorbed in her revelation to think of the cards left forgotten on the bridge. From their scene of good wishes, Fran went first, head erect, arms swinging deflantly; Abbott followed. not know ing in the least what to say. or even what to think.
 The moon had not been laughing st them long, before Fran looked back over her shoulder and said. as 1T nc had spoken, Still, I'd like for you to know about it."
 He quickened his step to regain her side. but was oppressed by an ooo sense of the abnormal

c ood news bears repeating, and when 1t is confirmed after a long lapse of time, even if we hesitated to believe 1t at first hearing, we feel secure in accepting it's truth now. The following experiences of a Putnam nan is confirmed after q lapse of years.
 Charles H. Potter, 63 Walnut street, Putnam, Conn.,, says: "l received bad fall some years ago and after that suner- cd from kidney trouble. My back was very lame and stifI, especially when l arose in the morning and there was also . distressing kid ey weakness, Seeing Dosn's Kidney Pills highly advertised, got box at Dresser's Drug Store and be- gan usipp them. few doses helped me and before long every symptom of my trouble disappeared.

 The last plank was crossed. 'Now!" Fran cried breathlessly, what did you wish?" Her body was quivering. her face glowing.

 "Oh!" said Fran. "Myl That was like a cold breath. Just wishing to be great, and famous, and useful, and rich!"

4 BIG CROP Year

Missouri has before itself this sea-
son an era OF prosperity. Its crops.
according TO predictions, will rival
these OF all previous years.
The corn acreage. unincreased, bu,
tended more scientifically and with
greater care than In years before, will
yield more than 25O million bushels
the high record of last year. Its
wheat. unhampered by drought con-
ditIons which have retarded its grow
b in other states. will top the high re-
cord OF IS million bushels two years
ago by more than 8 million.

More Rain II Needed

he said. I'm fact in a goodly por-
ton there was too much rain. up 10
two weeks ago and In these sections
the recent dry weather has been well

needed for oats. meadows and grass.

around Joplin. Carthage and Spring

Concerning the corn crop. Mr..
Hirth's statement reads:

over n greater part OF the state. and

the most part the farmers prepared
their seedbeds with unusual care and
