Just Before It's Bedtime
DOROTHY AND MARY JANE part III !.

las pleased as Dorothy because sht
won the race.
Dorothy's cheeks were red and hel
eyes were shining. One foot was wet
| but she did not even know 1t. She
| was having fun for the first time in
her life.
Get in the swing said Margaret
land we will take turns pushing you.'
"You are brave to swing SO high.'
said Mary Jane. Il scream when my
brother swings me as high as that"
Dorothy began to feel herself grow
! ing. She was without her nurse and
now Mary Jane thought she was
brave; she had never been so happy
before.
Now let us make mud pies" said
Mary Jane dorothy never made mud
pies; we'll have to show her how"
From under an old barrel turned up
side down the little sisters brought
| out spoons. old tin pans and broken
crockery. Dorothy did not see how
they could have any fun with such
things. but in a few minutes she was
sitting on the ground mixing pies
and cakes her pretty little hand. as
srimy as her playmates,
Then presently a whistle sounded.
Lunch time" said Margaret. THAT
Is the way mother calls u.s." she told
Dorothy. There are so many of us
she could not stop to call our names"
The little sisters ran to the brook and
washed their hands. and Dorothy fol-
lowed. and it was such fun to feel the
cool water running over her hands and
wrists.
The little sisters shook off the water
and dried their hands in the sun. Dor
Iothy looked surprised at this. but she
did as the others had done, and. to her
surprise. her hands were soon dry.
Stay and have lunch with u.s." said
Margaret.
"Oh. do" said Barbara and Susan.
'She has butter on her bread every
day" said Mary Jane: Il don't believe
she will like molasses."
Il should like very much to taste It."
said Dorothy.
"Of course she will like molasses on
her bread; all little girls do" said Mar
garet. taking Dorothy by the hand
What little girl is this: >" asked Mary
James mother, when they went into the
house.
This is Dorothy West" replied Mary
Jane. She came from the other side
of the high fence, but she is only visit
ing there. and she has never eaten any
bread and molasses, so we asked her to
stay and have lunch with u.s."
Mary James mother looked puzzled.
Does your grandfather know where
you are?" she asked Dorothy.
Dorothy confessed he did not. but she
looked SO sorrowful that the subject was
dropped, and soon the little girls were
eating their bread and molasses and
chatting merrily.
Then there were cookies and cold milk,
and Dorothy thought she had never
eaten anything so delicious. She felt
SIRE she would never yant any more
butter on her broad. "Molasses is much
nicer" she told Mary Jane when they
came out of the house.
%. yes. YOU will.C replied Mary Jane;
"molasscs is all right, but butter is good
once in a while"
Tomorrow l will tell you how the day
ended for Dorothy.

TON MARCH I TO ISSUE
BONDS.

At MeadviIle on March Z, the
people of Franklin county will hold
an election to decide on the issu-
ance Of SAC. 900 worth Of bonds to
build a new courthouse.
Lumbermen have recently bought
timber lands in Franklin, paying
SIS to the acre. which were former
" asHessed at $3.50. Taxes are
being paid on 10000 acres Of
standing timber not in accordance
with the value of the timber nor
in proportion to the taxes paid by
the farmer, so that il the assess
ment IS raised and the taxes equal
lied it will not cost the farmers a
cent and in the course Of FIVE years
it is estimated that the court house
will be paid for. The Board of
Supervisors of Franklin are plan
ming to do this.
The issuance of the bonds will
furnish an opportunity to our sis
ter county they should by all means
embrace. 1t is the only way to
advance materially. It makes a
target for high aim which. other
wise. would never be attained. This
has been the experience all over the
State in just such situations as this
one in Franklin.

CIRCULATION IS GROWING
The Leaders List IS Increasing, Not
Withstanding Close Revision of
Subscription Books.

The Leader is gratified that ia
spite Of close and constant revis-
ion Of its subscription list. our
books carry a longer roll of SUBJ
scribers than ever before in its
history. We very much appreciate
the loyalty Of old friends and pa
irons. many Of whom have needed
only the gentle reminder they and
we know about. to bring up arrears
and assure us of their interest and
support. And among this goodly
company we welcome the new SUBJ
scribers who are tying to the .'oId
reliable and giving a fresh i'm
petus to it as it goes further into
the New Years business activities.
The Leader expects to continue
In good service to the extent it is
enabled by the patronage received,
not only from subscribers but from
advertisers as we'll. upon whom
much depends in the cooperation
necessary for the maintenance and
support Of a live and progressive
newspaper. And here we venture
that if newspaper does not give
value received, pressed down and
running over, there is no institu-
'tion, enterprise or business that
does. It not only benefits the adj
vertiser; but through him and the
business he encourages. helps to
build up the community which re-
acts upon him and shares with him
its prosperity and Its profitable
prowess in any and every direction.
A newspaper reflects the town that
sup ports'it as nothing else does.
1t is mirror held up to nature
and the achievements of man at the
same time. You can literally, see
yourself as others see you ia
newspaper. The public judges a
town very much by the appearance.
Of its local paper. and we are go-
ing to strive to make the stranger
say when he picks up The Leader:
That must be a good and thriving
town. judging by the paper gotten
out there.

SURGERY FOR CRIMINAL TENDENCIES

An interesting after development
in surgical case which attracted
much attention about four years
ago has just occurred. A prisoner
serving q long sentence in the
prison at Dannemora, NJ. Y, WIS
pardoned by Governor White on
representations which seemed to
make it clear that he had been cur
ed Of his criminal tendencies by a
surgical operation. Following the
operation. the prisoners character
seemed to change. From being
sullen and morose be became bright
and cheerful, walked with tirmer
step. held his head erect and APP
peared to be q different man. It
is not surprising that a few months
after the operation the governor
was induced to set him free on
parole, and there seemed to be
every reason to hope that a useful
citizen had been restored to society
in place Of the criminal that had
been taken from it.
! Unfortunately the arrest of the
paroled prisoner during the first
week in January Of the present
year. for series of burgIaries
with regard to which the evidence
is complete. seems to make it clear

AS was told exclusively in The Tribune
some time ago. plans have been prepared
for a model farm in Central Park and
have been presented TO Park Commits
sioner Slower The architect, f. Burnett,
of No. II East Path street, said yesterday
Mr.. Slower favored the plan. 1t was
originally taken up by Mrs. John Sherman
Eoyt. who had Mr.. Burnett prepare the
plans.
Two sites were considered available, one
on the ball field in the southern end Of
Central Park, and the other on the site
Of the present nursery. near 9Th street.
on the westerly side Of the park.
The plan provides for small farm cot
tage, with accommodations for two COWS,
a pigsty for a family of porkers and a
coop for twenty tidy chickens. Observa-
ton windows in the dairy will permit the
populace TO see how a COW is MIXED and
how butter is made.
An old-fashioned flower garden is an
other feature, but nothing has been said
vet whether there will be a God Bless

farmhouse and cubist quilts on the beds
inside.
