"Yes. he was a hard man or his debt

"What-dead-!" exclaimed the

her to follow and entered the next
room and pointed to the coffin. Then

Haven't you asked her II she was

Yep. and she said II / read any

ted murder or anything she amt going

While this conversation was being
held within the house, Miss Ethel and
a girl friend were approaching it along
the street and speaking In whispers, al
though it would have been safe enough
to use the ordinary tones. Clasped
tightly under Miss Ethel's arm was a
good sized bundle.

The front door was opened an inch
at a time. the hall stairs mounted as
softly as a cat, and Miss Ethel found
herself In her room and her entrance
undetected.
Seven or eight blocks distant from
the Barrie house lived the widow Lee.
She was not only a widow, but poor
and hardworking. She had lost her
husband and son In the same week.
There had been nothing but ill-luck
for her. and just at this time the eli
max seemed at hand. She had given
a mortgage on her home and was be-

girl was at the house when the money

Up at Wichita, Kansas, the county
commissioners decided, recently, that
they needed a landscape gardener to
beautify the grounds urrounding the
court house. The gardener came. He
was an imported article full of ideas
foreign TO Wichita. The first thing
he did in the name of beauty was i'll
reality an act of vandalism. He had
a long avenue of towering naples
which for fifty years shaded the court
house grounds, dug up chopped into
stove wood and carted off, while in
fant oaks were set out in their stead.
Now Wichita mourns the loss of a
landscape gardener, together with his
views on things beautiful. Also she
mourns the loss of the grand old
naples which have been the pride CT
the town for five decades.
