CARELESS OF SMALL CHANGE

II Is thought that but very small
percentage of pennies lost in the
streets are ever found, since they lack
luster aud fail to catch the eye as does
a silver coin. The chances are that
they are swept up with rubbish and
SO, for the most part, lost as coins.
When the new Lincoln pennies were
first placed in circulation thousands
were used as souvenirs, never again to
find their way into general circulation.
Hundreds were gold plated and sill

CROSSED IN LOVE
How the Building Of Spite Fence
Reunited Lovers Separated
Twenty Years.
BY HUBERT ROSCOE.

II certainly was a desirable prop
erty from every point of view, but one
point of view was permanently includ-
ed, and that was the outlook upon old
Mr.. Smiths garden. 1t was an enor-
nous garden, almost big enough for
the grounds of an institution, and
from Mr.. Smiths front gate Mrs. Har-
mack could see rows of magnificent
elms and locust trees and flower beds
which always seemed to bloom with
seasonable flowers. But from her side
windows she could see nothing.
Its the spite fence" explained the
agent. That's why the property's so
cheap. Mr.. Smith resented the late
owners building next to him, and SO
he put it up"
1t was formidable fence, twenty
feet high. and built of lumber, paint
ed green on Mr.. Smiths side, and
bearing luxurious growth of Ivy, but
on the outside just plain, implanted
boards.
Il think he Is horrid old man."
said Adelina Harnack angrily. And

nit and has grudge against the
world. They say he was crossed In
love"
How old is he?" asked Mrs. Har-
mack curiously.
ooh, about fifty" answered the
agent carelessly.
So Mrs. Harnock bought the prop
erty. 1t was just the place, she told
herself, for a widowed lady to settle
down, and there was an excellent fin
ishing school near by for Miriam. her
only child. And days passed and
weeks passed, but neither saw Mr..
Smith
One day the agent stopped her in
the street.

WIN.

A neatly apparelled girl walking
slowly and sadly down q shady street
in Creston. Ahead Of her a wizened
bent old man was picking his careful
way where the pavement was most
shaded. for the sun was blistering
hot. Only stiff rollicking breeze
saved the day from utter sultriness
AS the old man turned the corner the
wind caught him like a cyclone. It
sent his old fashioned high hat rolling
and tumbling behind him.
Immediately a crowd Of urchins
playing in a vacant lot just off the
street made a dive for the frayed
discolored head gear.
Get it! Get it," shouted jubilant
voices. "Old Wilson's hat Put It
on the post and peg at it,"
Boys, boys" chided the young lady
throwing up her veil and showing a
face tear stained but resolute enough
even in its rare prettiness to daunt
the lads. She managed to catch hold
of a big boy who had secured the hat

"The old gentleman is waiting for It,"

The girl smiled brightly at the COM

at the last words of the boy. She
compressed them tightly and went
