Cyrus, you are a wonder" said Mr..
Brown. "A nice, quiet. sensible little

Brown nor Mr.. Cyrus came through

After while very different Mollio
went home. She cried all the way up
In the elevated. In her room lay q
package from the dressnaker. Mollie
opened 1t and flung the contents
across the room.
She would resign at once. She
would humble Brown into tho dust.
She would-stay! What was 1t he
had said? "A plain, homely one, who
isn't likely to have any admirers, and
won't get married and leave Lae In

Mollie crept to the mirror. The
face that looked into her own was not
that of beauty. But 1t was that OF
very simple. honest little woman
who had come to understand herself
at last.
Revenge! who won't get married

went to her desk and began writing q

MISS MoLLlE'S MISTAKE
BY GEORGE MUNsoN.

The dashing Miss Wheeler, private
secretary to President Brown, Of the
Lighting Corporation. had left to
marry q millionaire. And little Mollie
Raymond had been selected, out of
q hundred and nine stenographers. to
I'LL her place!
The dashing Miss Wheeler. with her
hne airs and Paris gowns. had long
been the envy Of the stenographers'
department.
However, Miss Wheeler must fade
into obscurity, for this concerns little
Mollie Raymond, OF Hopeville. and her
fance. George.
George was one Of those men who
are known solely by their Christian
names. That Is suficient characteri-
cation Of George. He was insignia-
cant, yellow-haired. and loved Mollie
devotedly. He was earning twenty
i've dollars week and was waiting to
be raised to thirty before claiming the
fulflllment CT Mollie's promise.
1t was the dashing Miss Wheeler
who had first raised doubts In Mollie's
mind as to the eligibility Of George.
Mollie loved George sincerely. but
she had teen beginning to think hard
since Miss Wheeler's engagement was
announced. We're love and George
worth a possible Hodgkins without
love? And, once the presidents sec.
rotary. and q visitor at Cowleigh,
would not another Hodgkins loom up
before her as with Miss Wheeler? II
only she had clothes like the dashing
Miss Wheeler!
It was this, and not her rise In the
world, that made her cold to George
when they next met.
1t was a miserable evening. They
seemed to drift further apart. Finally
George clurted out:
Il know what's the matter, Mollie.
Your heads been turned by that Miss
Wheeler you told me about. and you
don't care for me any more"
Don't be foolish. George" answered
Mollie. tartly. Il hardly ever said q
word to Miss Wheeler II you can't
trust me, just because I'm getting
more money than you"
Tears followed. They led to anger.
In the end Mollie flung Georges ring
On the table, and George put on his
hat-yes. inside the room-and stalked
away.
Days followed. George had neither
written nor called. And Mollie. though
she still loved George. began to think
Of him as someone whom she had
known long ago-before she took tho
place Of the dashing Miss Wheeler.
when my new dress comes Mr..
Brown will feel quite. quite differently
toward me-" thought Mollie.
On the evening before she planned
to emerge, like a butterfly. out Of the
drab cocoon Of her personality. Mr..
Brown was not quite so gruff. Mollie
thought he was softening. She was
quite happy when he actually babe her

FLOR1DA's CAMPHoR INDUSTRY

In single decade the camphor
industry of Florida, which is new
one in this state as well as in the
United States, has developed to such
extent that 1t is expected that with
in another few years we will be able
to supply the camphor gum demand
of the whole nation.
The success attained by cellu-
loid factory in raising camphor trees
for gum and oil for its own use has
prompted others to embark in the
industry. Heretofore the United
States has had to depend upon jap
an for it's camphor gum and cam
phor oil. Last year 10000 pounds
of camphor gum and like supply
of oil was the product of a tract of

900 acres of trees which was set
out in Florida in 1908.
Within the past year another
company purchased IS square miles
of land in the same territory for the
express purpose of growing camphor
trees. That the new company will
be unsuccessful as thepioneers in the
industry is not disputed. Sixteen
hundred acres were planted last
year and already enough seedlings
are on hand to cover nine square
miles.

AWAIT DECISION
IN NORTON COUNTY
Mandan Road Case Argued Be
fore District Judge Hanley
Yesterday

City, village and town boards
throughout Morton county will await
with interest the decision Of Judge J.
M. Hanley on a case argued yesterday,
known as the Mandan road case.
City Attorney l.. III. Connolly
brought suit some time since for
$1,000 from the county. He alleges
that the city is entitled to all money
levied on real estate in tho city for
road purposes; that the county
should return the money collected to
the city; and that the commissioners
have not the use of this money.
States Attorney LANCER, in behalf
Of the county argued the right Of the
board Of county commissioners to use
all Of the money collected.
When suit was instituted last spring
LANCER demurred to the complaint,
claiming there a not enough cause
for action.
The demurrer was argued yesterday
before Judge Hanley.
If the city Of Mandan wins the case,
it means a batch Of suits by Glen
ullin, New Salem, Carson, Flasher,
Hebron and all cities and villages in
the county.

EXAMINE CONCRETE WORK.
Experiments to Be Made to Establish
Standard Tests For Sand and Gravel.

Standard Tests For Sand and Gravel.
Special to Times Republican.
Ames. Oct. 6.-Because there is often
more or less failure of the concrete
work that goes into buildings and
pavements. the Iowa engineering ex-
pertinent station at Ames has started
thorough investigation to get at the
trouble and remedy it. The station
will in the next six months examine
more than 1900 concrete specimens of
all kinds and from a story Of the re-
suits set up standard tests for sand
and gravel to determine whether they
are suitable for use in concrete.
Much of the trouble seems to lie in
the sand and gravel used. Cement
manufacturers are generally turning
out product which complies closely
to standard specifications, but the
sand and gravel used vary seriously.
It seems essential to adopt some sort
of standard test of these important
materials and the American Society
for Testing Materials, the highest au-
thority in the country on this subject.
has selected the Iowa engineering ex-
pertinent station to assist its special
committee along these lines.
How important satisfactory STAN
dards and tests are may be gathered
from the fact that In Iowa alone this
past year at least $2,250.O00 was spent
for highway bridges and culverts. The
money put into buildings, pavements
and other concrete construction aggre-
gated many more billions.
