What he did say to her in his
amazed surprise neither Of them ever
remembered. When they parted IL
was with the knowledge that each
had found friend.
Gustav Spohr had expressed his
gratitude so delicately, SO gracefully,
that Elsie parted from him with one
doubt as to the wisdom of her i'm
puisive action
He had told her gently that hs
treasured her kindliness above every
thing that had ever happened to him,
and that the return Of his violin
would enable him to resume his posi-
tion with the theater orchestra, Of
which he had once been soloist; with
the renewal Of his health he would
not only regain that position. but lat
er on hoped to appear IN concert.
After that. there were many dc
lightful musical treats In store for
Elsie Chaplin. Tickets had . pleas
ant habit of dropping into her mail.
and many times she went to hear Gus
tav Spohr play.
Once a month he sent her pay
ment on the 800. and she was almost
disappointed when the debt was can
celed- The obligation, he said. never
could be paid.
The day they were married. Gustav
took Elsie to her curiosity shop and.
to her delight purchased the old escri-
toire which she loved. and behind
which she had been hidden when she
first saw him.
II can't hnd any old love letters
or even q withered hose, Gustav" sha
said, after she had thoroughly ran
sacked the secret hiding place Of tAa
desk.
"Never mind" he murmured, hide
our own love letters there for our
grandchildren to fnd and tell them
the story Of your old curiosity shop.
and how you found q husband there"

snowbsIIing q Queen.

From the ConsresatiounliSt.
An amusing incident Of wilhelmina,
the Queen of Holland, happened when
she was about twelve years old Driving
with her mother. they suddenly cana
upon two or three school boys. who were
snowballing some little girls. Wilhelmina
Immediately jumped out and commanded
her young subjects to stop. They did
not propose to do that, and at once began
to fire their missiles at the little Queen
herself She bravely stood her ground,
filled her hands with snow. and was about
returning the charge when a royal offcer
appeared and asked the sportive boys II
they knew that they were snowballing the
Queen of Holland. They. of course, did
not, and instantly disappeared. Then the
queenly girl laid down her handfuls of
snow sadly. saying to her mother: Il do
wish I could have thrown n at them"
What a pity she had not been allowed to
do soi It would have done her good, and
those boys would have exulted to their
latest day that they had snowba!led with
the Queen.-Congregation

OLD BRIDGE DANGEROUS PLACE
Boys Horse Leaps Off Into Ditch, Two
Autos Are Wrecked.

Great Bend, Kan, Feb. Ed.
White, a high school boy of this city,
lost a 5000 driving horse, had his buggy
wrecked and received serious injuries
to himself through tn, horse getting
scared while crossing the river bridge
here. As the horse left the bridge it
plunged down the high embankment at
one side throwing White from the
buggy against a telephone pole and
then ran a short way when it plunged
into a tree and broke its neck
An hour previous, John Tucker. a
farmer, drove his auto into q buggy
driven by another farmer named Parr,
when they met on the bridge neither
seeing the other. Both auto and buggy
were wrecked and the occupants re-
ceived slight injuries. The old bridge
is to be replaced soon by a large ce-
ment one.

MAKE LOTS BLOOM
Normal Students viii Raise
Gardens to Pay Way.
Teacher of Agriculture in
Charge of New Plan.

Emporia, Kan, Feb. ITO make a
garden spot of every vacant lot in the
central part of Emporia is the task
just begun by Charles r. Ph1pps OF
the department of agriculture OF ,Ine
Kansas State Normal. The unsightly
vacant lot grown up to weeds IN the
summer and bristling with tin cans IN
the winter is soon to take on an ap-
pearance of comelineSs. The work Will
be done by the students, and the Ell
fort will serve two ends from his
point of view; he will gain knowledge
in the culture of plants, which VIII De
a part of his regular school work, ana
he will earn part of his way through
school. This will also be the biggest
thing toward the Identification of En-
poria that has been taken up.
All the vacant lots that are good Tor
gardening will be used, and those IN
the better part of the city will be pre-
ferred. The lots will be planted to
low growing vegetables, potatoes, to-
matoes cabbage, onions, radisheS, let
tuce and probably rhubarb. The stu
dents will put in the stuff, and Will
care for it under the direction of Mr..
Phipps. The seed will be furnished
partly by the students and partly by
the institution. The tools. used Will
also be furnished in the same manner.
1t is expected that most of the lot
owners will be glad to have their lots
cared for, but in case rent is demand
ed a liberal rent will be paid by the
students. Aside from the cost of the
seed and the rent the earnings VIII
revert to the boys who do the work.
Definite System of Gardening.
The gardening will be done under a
definite system, directed by an agr1-
cultural expert, Mr.. Phipps. He has
made arrangements with local mer-
chants to market the produce. The
potatoes and cabbage. however, can be
handled through the commission
houses. It will not be peddled, but
will be handled comparatively, the first
time a normal school has undertaken
this task.
Seed selection, cultivating and
mulching will be studied and applied
from a scientific standpoint. The po-
tatoes will be mulched, and all of the
plants cared for in such a manner that
the natural supply of water will be
sufficient to mature the crops. The
potatoes will also be treated with
formaldehyde to prevent scab, and all
grown will be of the same variety.
This will increase the market value of
the produce.
The plan as worked out is for a
practical garden, and efforts will be
made to introduce it in the towns OF
Kansas.
