American Cities.

Guclielmo Ferrero in the Atlantic.
That American cities are ugly / will
ingly admit Ii would need much courage
no doubt, to brand this affirmation as
false, but il would also be unjust 10 deny
that America is making mighty efforts to
beautify them. All the schools of archi-
lecture In Europe, especially that in Paris
are full of Americans hard at work The
sums which cities. states banks. insur-
ance companies. universities and rail-
roads have spent TO beautify their mag
nincent edifices is fabulous. All these
buildings are not masterpieces by wide
margin, but there are many which are
very beautiful. America has architects
OF indiSputable worth. In Europe men
like TO repeat that Americans buy at eX-
travagant prices objects of ancient art
or things that pass for such, without dis
tinguishing those which are beautiful and
ancient from those which are inferior and
counterfeit. But those who have seen
something OF the houses of rich Ameri-
cans know that although there are snobs
and dupes in America, as everywhere else
there are also people who know the mean
ing of art, who know how to buy beauti-
full things and who search the world over
for them. You will find in the streets of
New York every variety of architecture
just as You find in its libraries all the
literatures of the world, and In its the
aters all the music and in its houses all
the decorative arts.

THE DAILY STORY.
THE RIFT.
Copyright. 1918. by ". Werner


Torrid weather had stolen upon the
place during the night Lesbia awoke
breathless. damp with sweat TO find the
suns glow everywhere and her room
sweltering She lifted herself out of bed
heavily The flat was full of hot-weather
orator, the kitchen sink. the garbage can,
even. Outside trolley cars changed and
delivery wagons jolted. Feet scurried by
1t was s O'Clock
Lesbia bathed and dressed languidiy
She had no appetite. but she knew that
going without food would not tend TO
make her feel better She must have
some breakfast. When she went TO the
refrigerator she found that the ice had
vanished overnight and her carefully
boarded pitcher of cream was sour. COT
fee and a cereal without cream was out
of the question. She could order more
cream, 10 be sure, but that meant wait
ing. and Lesbia did not like to wait for
anything. Impatence was one OF her
biggest characteristics. In the end she
ate tepid grape fruit and bread and but
ter. And while she was eating 1t the
postman came.
Lesbia ran downstairs to get her mail.
There was nothing save a post card OF
the six-for-a- nickel variety. On the face
were scrawled a few words:
Am going on to Himrod's before !
come home. Cant say how long L
shall stay. VIII let you know when ! get
there. STED.
Lesbia read the card all the way up
stairs and again after she reached her

Why, four years of that kind of life
We're, to the point of separation. We
couldn't stand il. No human nature
could. Married folks have to have vaca-
tions-vacations from each other some
times well vacations together. I've
thought for a good while Lesbia needed
to get away from home, so ] made her

Sted looked down at her and smiled
consent. And tho cloud of misunder-
standing rolled away from between them

apartment She wanted to be sure to
get all the meaning of every word. Sted
was going on to Himrod' s. He had per-
haps meant to go all the time. The day
before he had left her TO go to Westport
on business - some lumber deal with
which he was connected. This was the
first time he had written. She mad peen
expecting him home today and he was
going to Himrod's. Himrod's lay on the
lake a breezy. cool resort. where there
wis plenty of fish. summer girls and gen
eral iollity He had no business at Him
rod s save pleasure. And he was leaving
her to the fiat and the heat and solitude.
She sank into chair and began to
cry 1t was cruel in Sted. 1t was more
than cruel; it was unmanly This maj
act of his heaped up the measure OF all
his previous misbehavior- After eleven
wears of marriage of being all in all to-
gether, of working and living and hoping
together. this had happened. Oh, she
had tried always faithfully TO do her
part She had been a good wife; she
had saved and economical and MANAGED
the best that was in her she had gwen
to her husband. And Sted had apparent
" striven to please and protect her They
had quarreled a little now and then, but,
oh, the making up. Now for a long time
there had been no making up. There
had been chickering's at the breakfast
table: dissension at lunch; misunder-
standing at dinner. Sted made frequent
excuses for not coming home his office
duty kept him away. lie no longer had
time to go out with her. He never
brought her flowers or bonbons or praised
her cooking, as in the old days. he was
tired of her. That summed up the whole
thing-he was tired of her. And when
a man is tired of a woman there remains
for her but one thing-she must give him
his freedom
Lesbia cried herself finally into kind
of calm She wiped her eyes and was
ready for action. But what kind of &C
ton? Here she was abandoned, as II
were, with unlimited credit at the
grocer's, but very little money. She was
tied to the fiat until Sted chose to come.
She looked around her and hated her sur
roundings I've scarcely been away
from this place since we moved in here,
she thought. I've stayed here through
hot weather and cold and I'm beginning
to loathe it,
At that moment the doorbell rang. At
the head of the stairs she met Mrs. HaW-
ley coming up. Mrs. Hawley was big
and rosy and climbed slowly.
The street door was ajar, so | came
right in" she said as she sat down.

hand. and began to cool herself My.
Isn't it hot? l told George Hawley this
morning that he'd have to knock off work

clothes and do my Irish crochet. I've
come over to see if YOU don't want to

go along with me just for companys
sake-come as my guest. | owe you some
thing for that good turn you did me last
winter when ! had the grip.
The color and light of surprise rushed
into Lesbia's face and almost hid the tear
stains. She went TO Mrs. Hawley and i'm
pulsiyely kissed her. It'll CO. she said.
Thank you-thank YOU
Afterward, when they were drawing
near to Himrod's, she wondered what
Sted would say TO see her there. They
must run across each other. Her heart
beat fast She felt exhilarated, daring,
yet uneasy. too. Suppose she found him
9irting with somebody?
But there was no sign of Sted at the
hotel where they stopped. They removed
the dust of motoring. and the women
changed their clothes. Lesbia had brought
ner blue messaline. and she put that on.
She was fairly trembling with excitement,
for she might meet Sted any moment.
If he should be in the dining room when
they went TO dinner,
But Sted was not there There was no
sign of him anywhere. Toward evening

(By Doctor Mark Francis. A. and M.
College)

Hundreds OF valuable horses are
ruined or seriously damaged every
year by barb wire. In many instances
this is the result Of carelessness in
permitting loose wire to remain where
animals may become entangled in it,
or in failure to keep wire fences that
separate stock pens from forage crops
in repair, or lack OF attention to mares
or young stations during the breeding
season, etc.
Injuries About the Neck and Head.
These usually result from protrud-
ing the head between wires placed
100 far apart. Serious injury of that
region, or even the large chord Of elias
tic tissue that extends from the with
ers to the poll.
Injuries to the throat and lower
sides OF the neck usually result in an
finals that have been frightened by
the cars or automobiles, and are run
ming away, regardless OF obstacles. and
come against the wire diagonally.
These may sever the trachea and large
blood vessels of the neck and die in a
few minutes from loss of blood.
Injuries to The Shoulder.
These are very common and serious.
II tho large muscle which extends
from the ear down the neck and across
the shoulder be divided. the wound
bleeds profusely, and the margins Of
it will be several inches apart, due to
retraction Of the ends Of the severed
muscle. II the wound be still deeper.
the biceps muscle may be divided or
