take you to Paris next spring. And
to Florida for the honeymoon
Little Miss Dimsey looked at him
with tragic eyes. DO you really mean
it?' she faltered
Yes" answered old Ludwig.
III marry you as soon as you wish
me to- said little Miss Dimsey.
1t was arranged that they should be
married at the registry Office in three
days time, on the morning on which
Ludwig was to sail for Europe Miss
Dimsey and her mother were installed
in the old mans house. It was all like
marvellous dream, the money, the
clothes, the servants that waited deft-
ly on them with stolid, carven, ex-
pressionless faces.
The desperate letter that had been
written to Jack, telling him of the
necessary sacrifice. brought him rag
ing to the door. The butler, who had
his orders, refused him admittance
Not even his vehement threats and Of
fers of brides could move the man. OF
this, however, Miss Dimsey knew
nothing. nor Of the intercepted letter
that Jack had written her
The day of the marriage dawned.
Miss Dimsey and her mother awaited
Ludwig at the registry office.
He'll never come" said Mrs Dim
sey with conviction.
But he came, smiling and gentle as
ever, with gardenia in his button
hole, and, still in a dream, Miss Dim.
sey signed her new name. Anita Lud-
wig. The wedding breakfast followed,
they saw the old man on the boat,
ard the two women We're alone.
It's hard upon Jack, my DEAR" said
the mother wistfully.
Mrs. Ludwig cried I'm going to be
a good wife to him." she answered.
Him." queried the mother, startled.
ITO Adolf" said the bride.
They had three weeks to wait be-
fore the return. The days passed
leaden-f footed. Jack, who had received
a notification of the wedding, con-
trived to waylay the mother and pour
out his indignation Anita he did not
see
The boat brought back no Ludwig,
but, instead, a letter from London in
a strange hand. 1t contained notice
of the old man death in a London
hospital
Enclosed was a letter from Adolf
Ludwig to his bride.
II couldn't raise your salary he
said, so / married you instead

again. Goodbye, Anita You have
been good girl, and have left you
everything. l hope you and Jack will
be happy. I'm sorry you wouldn't take
that loan instead, but it was Just a
case of marrying you or breaking the
laws of commerce and / chose the

Anita looked up through her tears.

It's particular work to perform
ana 1t IS important to Keep all oI
the forms Vi bacteria active and
awe Ill order to keep the ldnu
alive. In order to do this there
must be a sufficient amount OF
vegetable matter turned under
each year tor them to live on.
Start this fall and turn all Of
your ground six inches deep. Ii
The weeds and grass are too
heavy to turn under first run
some kind of drag over the land
and then if you think that you
will not be able to plow every
thing under get a disk harrow
and run over across the way you
ran the drag. In this way some
will be cut in two and some will
be covered up. If the grass is
green leave it for a day or SO after
running the disk over so it will
have chance to dry out as there
is some chance Of souring the
land if too much green grass is
turned under deep. In the
spring turn this land about three
inches and see if you can't tell
difference in the next crop.
Each fall pillow a little deeper
than you did the preceding year
and in the spring only about half
as deep as i'll the fall. Cultivate
the crop as shallow as possible.
We can raise things here without
fertilizer but the idea is to raise
more Of it than we are doing at
present and at a lower cost"
We might add that an applica-
ton of two tons of lime, at very
little expense, in combination
with the above outlined method
OF procedure, would produce
crops as good as almost any reas-
enable amount of chemical ferti-
lizer. An alkaline soil is most
favorable to bacterial life, and in
addition the lime breaks down
the vegetable matter into avail
able heterogeneous compounds and
also helps to make the natural
potash content of the soil much
more easily taken up by plants

Current Comment.
ONE DISTURBANCE DONE FOR.

In his obituary OF the late lamented
sixty.third Congress President vii.
son says:
Business has now a time of calm
and thoughtful adjustment before It,
disturbed only by the European war.
From the Democratic viewpoint
that is not brilliantly happy way Of
putting It. II business is disturbed
now only BY the war, here is tacit
admission that, until Mr.. Wilson's
personally conducted Congress died
the death OF constitutional limitation,
1t also was disturbing factor. This,
in fact. has been the observation OF
business and the cause Of Its com.
plant. The capacity OF a Democratic
Congress to disturb Is infinite, and
the recent Congress was particularly
upsetting because directed by an ex.
ecutive who cared less for the disturb.
ance he created than the calm and
prosperity he promoted. He didn't
bring the country to the day when
war began in anything like the. good
condition 1t was in when handed over
to him by President Taft and the
Republican party. That Is one great
reason why business men are going
to do lot Of Thoughtful adjustment"
between now and November OF next
year.--GaZette.Times.
