having always been used to torses, had
taken up their handling as a vocation.
Quite likely some of the low born

their employers tell some such yarn as
this. Atwood's conscience did not trou-

for the young lady. But it served to

Fosdick every pleasant afternoon. and
since it was not as pleasant for her to
have him perched or the box SO far
above her she 0 o came to select a
cart to ride in, so that he might sit
beside her. Occasionally they would
meet some Of Atwood's friends. who
would stare Mt him, wondering how
any two men could so closely resemble
each other as the handsome clubman
and this liveried coachman. But Frank
would keep his eyes on his horses and
brazen it out. On M occasion they
met Colby driving with IL party of
! friends, and although Ned, according
man away, the ordeal was trying.
The outcome Of the wager was a
compromise. One day Frank Atwood
appeared at the club mot in livery
and sat down to lunch with his friend
Colby.

for a lark has turned out seriously.

Miss Bertha Fosdick and | don't wish

off"
Atwood never went back to the Eos
dicks in livery. He wrote a long let
ter to Mr.. Fosdick in which he told
as much of the truth as it would dc
to tell, gave him references and asked
permission to apply to his daughter
for her hand.
1t required some time for Mr.. Eos
dick to be convinced that there wa
not something wrong about the appli
cant, but after diligent inquiry he be
came satisfied that Frank Atwood's so
cial position was excellent and his in
come ample to support Miss Bertha In
the style to which she had been accus

Ned Colby was best man at the we'd
ding.

"TF I were to lose my fortune"
said Frank Atwood to his
friend, Ned Colby. at the Athe-
naeum club, do you know what
l would do?"
"What?"
"Td hire out for a coachman." 4
"You'd have to make it a chauffeur.
There are no coachmen any more"
"There are a few. I have no fancy
for a machine, but I love a horse"
"If there were any young women in
the family there'd be n Of these Sc
cret marriages that we see so often
mentioned in the newspapers, follow
ed by the customary annulment or d.
vorce."
"Oh, no., there wouldn't"
"1ll bet you there would"
"How could we settle such a bet?"
"By putting the matter to practice.
Advertise for a position and when you
find one with a pretty girl in the fam
lily take it. I'll bet you a hundred that
| within three months you marry the
girl
''That would be interesting, wouldn't
| it" said Atwood thoughtfully.
The upshot of this bit of dialogue
was that Atwood advertised as sug-
gested and, after answering several ill.,
vitations to call and present creden-
tials, at last found Il place where there
was the required pretty girl. His Gre
dentials were wanting, but fortunately

Since his employer was not versed in
literature he did not appreciate the alb

three months Atwood would be at

daughter Of his employer: $500. more
that he would marry her. and $500
more that he would run away with
her.
1t would seem that Colby should have
received odds on such a wager, and If
he had been a real coachman twenty
to one would not have been enough.
But Frank Atwood was a very at
tractive young fellow and had a smile
that no girl could resist. Miss Eos

CLOVER IN MIDSUMMER.
Seeds Sown About This Time Are
Most Likely to Succeed.

@'NSsy W 0NVSSSOs
The chances Of successfully seeding
clover alone in midsummer are much
better than they are with the usual
methods of seeding it in spring accord
ing to experiments ut the Purdue sta
ton conducted by Professor 4. T. WI
ancko. In cases where the spring seed
ing of clover has failed this will prove
a great help to the farmer as it is pos
sible to get a good stand after the
grain crop is removed. For the past
three seasons at the experiment sta
ton they have made a separate SOW
ing of clover every three or four weeks
from April to September to determine
at which time they could get a better
stand. Weather conditions had a great
deal to do with it. but the seedlings
made in midsummer We're invariably
more satisfactory than those made
earlier or later. There was less trou-
bic with rains and weeds.
In general the experiments have
shown that seedlings made in July or
early August are most likely to sue
coed. Wheat or oats stubble should be
thoroughly double disked or narrowed
as soon as possible after harvest when
the ground is moist enough to work.
This will destroy the weeds and hold
the moisture. The clover seed should
be put in at the first favorable oppor-
tunity, when the soil is moist. prefer

We ARE ALL TEUTONS.
The Great Nations Got Their Ideals
From Cernanic Sources.


From Gernanic Sources.
Teutonic civilization crossed the
channel and laid the foundation Of
England. There it has been preserved
IN a purer state than in any other part
of the globe. except in Scandinavia.
Tie free ideals which England has
spread broadcast throughout the world
are her heritage from the Saxon free
mel who founded a new Germany in
Britain. while military despots did vio-
lence to German ideals in Central Eu-
rope, says the Philadelphia North
American.
There is no civilization worthy the
name except Teutonic civilization. It
fills Europe and America; it dominates
Asia and Africa. It's seat is in London
and Paris. and Rome and Brussels,
and Copenhagen and Stockholm. and
New York and Philadelphia. no less
than In Berlin and Vienna.
Because we inherit the blood of the
Saxons or the Normans or the Franks
or the ~Longobards we are all Germans,
but more especially are we Germans
because II most priceless heritage Is
the free ideals of those free men.
1t is idle. therefore. to talk Of preju-
dice againSt Germans in this conflict.
And it is equally futile to argue that
Teutonic civilization Is at stake in 4
war in which the most potent factors
on either side are themselves the ripest
product Of that civilization watered by
the most ancient German blood.

DISORDER IN COURT:
FORCED TO ADJOURN
Suffragettes Throw Missiles
at Magistrate-Art Gal
lery Invaded and Some
Valuable Pictures Are
Slashed by Agitators.

London. May 22,--King George ana
Queen Mary were today compelled to
listen to the harangue Of a militant
suffragette while attending a matinee
at His Majesty's theater. A woman
rose in the stalls and began to address
the king. You Russian Caesar" she
yelled. Attendants who tried to get
her out found she was chained to her
seat. They had TO file the chain before
she could be removed. Women in other
parts of the theater shouted at the
king one of them jumping on the
stage. Eventually all disturbers were
elected.
In police court at the trial of the
women arrested yesterday the scenes
surpassed in wildness all previous ef-
forts Of the militant party. The ses-
sion had to be suspended.
Missiles Thrown at Magistrate.
Some of the militants found places
among the rafters of the courtroom
and blew ear-piercing variations on
comets. This was the signal for vol
leys of bags of flour and other missiles
to be thrown at the magistrate, Sir
John Dickinson. Three policemen pre-
vented one of the prisoners from
throwing herself over the rail OF the
enclosure Another woman removed
her shoe and hurled 1t at the head OF
the magistrate, who caught 1t in his
hands. There was a free-for-all fight
when the court was suspended.
Subsequently the women were
brought in again. Most Of them were
bound over to keep the peace for six
months. but they refused to find sure
ties. T. o. Grandpre Of Chicago. who
was knocked unconscious by a mount
