her lips and looking angrily at Lucy
Smith.
1t had always irritated the wealthy

Of ne'er-do-well Frank Smith, should
have offered a home to their mutual
uncle, Mark Evans.
Mark Evans had owned a prosper.

man Of eighty was unable to keep 1t
up. At eighty-two his niece. Mrs.
Adams, fearing that the depreciating
property would leave her only trivial
legacy, persuaded the old man to sell
out.
Pay the money over to me and
Phil" she said, and we'll take care Of
you for the rest of your days"
The old man did so, but the farm
realized less than thousand dollars.
The Adams family was furious.

husband. IF it wasn't for what the
neighbors would say. I'd turn him away

Old Mark heard that. He had re-
signed himself without complaint to
the attic room. to separate table
where he received the scraps that fell
from the family's leavings. He had
borne the taunts Of the ill-bred Adams
children. But it stung him to the
quick to be a burden, to be accused
Of dishonesty.

spend week with her." he announced
the next day. Guess I'll pay her q

Little Fessenden Girl Writes Gle

People Of mature age in North Da-

Maria Speiser. She recently wrote a
letter to President C. c. Moore of the

that she has the real boosting spirit.
The letter follows:

sition, Sen Francisco, Calf,
Dear Sir: ! want to help boost Tor
North Dakota, and especially foI
Wells county, because l often read
in the papers what eastern people say
about North Dakota. So many think
that North Dakota is a wild state, so
l just want to show them that they
are mistaken. Enclosed you will find
two photos OF myself and my pet fox,
Rhenerd. BY the picture you will see
that even the foxes are tame. Ny
name is Ella Maria Spelser. am
twelve years old. ! expect to visit
the fair with my parents some time
this summer and would be pleased
to see these two pictures on exhibit
in the North dakota building. Thank.
ing you in advance and wishing ali
success to the exposition, l remain,
Respectfully,

1t is needless to say that the pic.
lures Of Miss Speiser and her pet
fox already adorn the walls of the
North Dakota building, and a placard
has been prited calling specil atten.
ton to them. If all the people of
North Dakota had half the love for
the state that this girl has the popu-
lation would double in n years
time. The lesson is plain. Let us
profit BY it.
