her daughter was leaving the house.
"don't buy very expensive hat and Sc
lect one that will wear well.
"Oh yes. l will be just as careful,
Betty answered eager to be off.
AS you have probably already discov'
cred Betty was going down town to buy
something and what could canse more
thoughts and excitement than a new
spring bonnet?
Yes that was what Betty was going to
bny and as she walked happily along she
thought hard about tEat hat.
Zone thing is sure" she said to her
self, "it must have pink roses, it must
have pink rosee."
As che walked on she thought more
seriously about this matter.
"Shall it be white lace or pale pink
straw with black velvet streamers? My
new dress is pink and pink straw poke
shape would Ike too cunning for words"
Just then big black car came down
the street.
1000! she squealed, that's Jimmee
in his new car, what beauty. Hello
Jimmee!"
The car slowed up beside her and a
boy about her own age jumped ont. He
was tall with good featuresand pretty eyes
but he had red hair and great many
freckles.
"Hello, Betty" he said in a pleased
tone. Isn't she beauty? How about .
long ride tomorrow afternoon?'
Lovely" cried Betty, 'and l surely
will 60! ! am just going down to Mil
lersto buy new hat and l will wear it"
"Gee!" Jimmee burst out, "you sure
will look swell, well goodbye, see you
latter"
Goodbye" answered Betty and then
to herself, II hope ! will look swell, it
will have to he the pink one.''
When she reached the store she saw
the very hat she wanted, and took it
home supremely happy.
The next afternoon Betty was almost
in tears; it looked very much like rain but
she would wear her new hat. Her.
mother protested in vain. 1t is to feared
that Betty was rather a spoiled young
lady and che wore the new hat and the
beautiful pink dress.
When Jimmee came by for her he ex-
pressed the same Thought that he had the
day before she looked swell all right.
When they had gone about fifteen
miles the rain suddenly began to fall in
sheets, Jimmee tried to put up the tops
but in the driving rain he conld do MOTH
ing.
"Jimmee Allen, hate you! hate
you" went Betty, you've ruined my
new hat, always knew red-hsired men
were unlucky. Take me home!''
When the rain subsidized and they
drove home, Betty's pink roses were
limp and faded and the dress was ruined.
She never looked at Jimmee all the way
home, though he tried his best to make
her talk. When he handed her over to
her mother he said remorsefully, II am
swfuliy sorry, Betty, honest I am, I'll be
around tonight" :.
"You will mott" she cried furioualy,
don't you ever speak to me again!"
From the grin on Jimmee'a face as he
went whistling home that night we
might suppose that her bark was worse
than her bite.

!" Here, Just duplicate that order for
me, will you? I'm a bit too old to join
the boys club, but I'm joining by
proxy. Joe is representing himself and
me, too" laughed Mr. Somerville. I'm
really very much Interested z
AS Joe and Mr.. Somerville went
down the street the merchant stepped
into a bookstore.
Lets go in here and get started. /
see the first thing on the list is a
book for beginner. That sounds
sensible, like it was a start from the
bottom. Wen get two copies. You
take yours home, and Til study mine
here. Fl.
"Can't start any too soon for me-
answered Joe.
We'll, here's the books Now you
come to town next Saturday and spend
the day with me- and well compare
notes on what we've read When you
80 home have your father point out the
four acres we are going to cultivate.
Don't matter whether it is poor or not. 7
I'D rather he'd give us the poorest,
meanest land there is on the place. ]
don't want him coming around after
ward saying we had any advantage on
the land" said Joe.
That's right: the poorer the land the
bigger our demonstration will be. Get
it laid off, and anything that suggests
itself to you, why, just 60 ahead and
do it. I'm going to give you check
book, and when you need to spend
any money write out q check for it and
sign it Weston & Somerville.' will
instruct the bank to pay it,
"All right sir, but am not going to
spend anything l can possibly help
Now, let me tell you something right
here; don't ever be afraid to spend
money IL it is going to pay you to do
SO. II you can see where a dollar
brings return spend it quick. The
thing to do is to spend wisely-that is
investment"
well, ] think the hrst thing want,
then, is enough hog wire fencing for
those four acres. Seems to me I've
never done anything much except chase
hogs out of our fields'
You are starting right, Joe. That's
| good sense I'll send the wire out
Thursday and q man to stretch it and
put it up. You get the posts ready"
"All right, sir"
And after you get the fence up go
ahead now and use your Judgment as
to what next to do, from what you get
out of the book. Well, here's my bug
81. The driver will take you home.
Good night, partner''
He shook hands cordially and vanish
ed into the store. Joe, his precious
book held tightly in his lap, was soon
whirled home behind the Somerville
trotter and made up his mind that some
day he was going to have horse and
buggy exactly like that when he got
to making money farming.
