Successful Teachers
Meeting

All teachers assigned to Walkers
for institute work on last Friday re.
ported, the work was good, all
teachers taking some part in the
program. The work as reported by
teachers is good. Some unsatisfac.
tory conditions as to houses and
grounds reported.
The teachers were all eager to get
information and all help in order
that they might serve their school
communities better.
The attendance was good, the
house not being large enough to
hold the crowd. The community
is to be commended for their sup.
port and help in so good a work.

Benson's love for Virginia was the

of great hope: and Ii held the Tear

Time had brought only the most
superficial changes in their relation;
she was far removed from him, as
unapproachable. as she had ever
been: speech was still great dis

only grown more devout; with the
passing of time it had become a
dreamy ecstasy in which he dwelt In
the splendid solitude of her perfect
fancy.

not push his fortunes: he must have

CHICAGO. June 4.--nenial of the
statements issued recently by Ch;r

price OF meat TO the consumer was

given out today. <
Brown quoted market figures TO
show that steers on .hoof are selling
from $25 TO $40 head less than last
year: that heifers and small cattle are
selling from $40 TO $50 head less ;
that hogs are selling from 81 to a
head less. and that sheep and lambs

which had always enabled him 10

he were more than half ashamed Oh

Virginia rarely mentioned the dead

tenderness that unconsciously stole
into her voice and manner In the
face OF her amending, unyielding deVo-
ton to Stephens memory, Benson now
and again gave way TO despair that
was not far from abject III It's nope
lessness; and yet quite apart from his
selfish interest in all that affected her,
this devotion OF hers was most pa
thetic to him. Was she going TO waste
her splendid youth in that great house
out there beyond the town, away from
people. and apart from all that was
supposed to make living worth while7
Il would have hurt him to have
thought of her as he did OF Anna; but
she was the younger and her beauty
was only now reaching the fullness
OF it's perfection, and after decent
period had elapsed. then surely she
might think OF taking up life again.
No worldly advantage could ever have
any weight with her; but he knew
that ne was, as he was reputed to be
the richest man in Benson, that he
had much TO offer her, way OF life
entirely suited TO her tastes and tradi-
tons He thought OF these things,
wondering II she could ever be
brought to comprehend The value OF
all he had to give. In the absence OF
any closer tie he comforted himself
with the thought that ii was much
gained TO be her friend; yet on each
occasion when they met, he sought 10
discover in her face that altered look
which would bid him speak; but the
change never came. and in her dark
eyes there rested always the shadow
of her sorrow.
He was still boy enough to wish
that he might do some gallant deed,
make some great heroic sacrifice for
her sake, and so, splendidly, tell his
love: but he knew that such opportun-
tiles were rare in the practical age
into which he had been born. He
owned almost sadly, that even had
they existed, he was gifted with a
thrifty shrewdness that would prob
