 Fran, after one long glowing look at him. turned to the lad in disgrace, and placed her hand upon his stubborn arm. Have you a mother?" she asked wistfully.
 "Yeh," mumbled the lad, astonished at finding himself addressed. not as an inkstained husk of humanity, but as an understanding soul.

And you cant think what fault -blindest, spoilingest, can diest mother she was. I'm glad yours is living, for you still have the chance to make her proud and happy.
  No matter how fine l may turn out do you reckon I'll ever be admired by anybody, Jakey? Huhi I guess not. But if I were, mother wouldn't be here to enjoy it. Won't you tell Professor Ashton that you are sorry?" Fran" Abbott began. Fran made mouth at him q don't belong to your school any more," she informed him. Mir School Director can tell you the name of what he can do to me; he'll find 1t classified under the Els"
 After this explosion, she turned again to the lad: "I saw you punch that boy, Jakey. and I heard you say you didn't, and yet 1t was good punch. What made you deny it? Punches aren't bad ideas. If I could strike out like you did, I'd wait till I saw a man bullying weaker one. and I'd stand up to him" Fran leaped impulsively to her feet, and doubled her armand I'd let her land Punch ing's good thing, and. oh, how it's needed. :. 1.

 "Aw-right," said Jakey, with glim- mering of comprehension. He seemed coming to life, as if sap were trickling from winter-congealment.
 Bob Clinton, too, felt the fresh breeze or early spring in his face. He removed his spectacles.

Uncle turned us out of the house. Did we starve, that deserted mother and her little baby? I don't look starved, do I? Pshaw! If woman without cent to her name, and ten pounds in her arms can make good, what about d big strong boy like you with a mother to smile every time he hits the mark? Tell these gentlemen you're sorry for punching that boy"
 "Sorr'," muttered Jakey shame facedfy.
 'I am glad to hear it, Abbott ex- claimed heartily. You can take your cap to go, Jakey."
 "Lemme stay" Jakey pleaded, not Judging an inch.
 Fran lifted her face above the tousled head to look at Abbott; she sucked in her cheeks and made a triumphant oval of her mouth. Then she seemed to forget the young mans presence.

M|DDLEMAN CAUSE
OF HIGH GOD COST
Farmers Congress Head Places
Blame for Present
Prices.

PLANO, ILL.,. Sept. 23-''There is a
great margin of expense somewhere
between producer and consumer VIII 'eh
leads to the justly founded complaint
of the ultimate consumer of the high
cost of living" said Charles r. Sam
ford. president of the Farmers Ma
tional Congress, in calling the thirty
third annual session to order today.
This. Mr. Sanford asserted, 'leads
to confusion in the public mind as
to the real status of the farmer and
the profits arising from his occupa-
ton.
During the last two decades the
agricultural industry has not kent
pace with the increase of population,
falling behind 1873 per cent; during
this same period there has come an
extraordinary increase in the valua-
ton of farm lands until 1t is no
longer an easy or simple matter for
the average man to become the
owner of a well-improved farm,
Moreover. the percentage of tenant
farmers is steadily Increasing. in
some States with alarming rapidity.
"Without minimizing in any de-
gree the Importance of efforts to in
crease production and to conserve
the fertility of the soil, it may be
safely affirmed that American agri-
culture will never be permanently
established until it is made possible
for it to become permanently profita-
BILE for the farmer of average abil-
ity.
while the man of exceptional
ability or exceptionally favorable cir
eumstances may become wealthy by
reason of increase in land values or
good fortune in the yields of good
crops. the stability of agriculture
and the ultimate prosperity of our
entire citizenship depend chiefly on
the measure of prosperity which at
tend the labors of the average farmer
in the average farm home"
Farm credits, betterment of coun-
try schools. good roads and parcels
posts were among other subjects also
discussed.
