Mark home for the rest of his
days." answered Lucy quietly.
That was true, and the old man
was welcome. No longer living upon
grudging charity, he sat at the table
with his relatives. The best bedroom
in the house had been offered him.
However, Old Mark would not take
that, but he was certainly more COM
fortably accommodated than before.
One thing had always distressed
Lucy. Old Mark insisted on going
out to work.
It might seem that man of eighty
four is incapable of active labor. But
Old Mark, though he had not been
able to keep up his farm, had by no
means lost his muscular activity. AS
labor was scarce in the neighbor-
hood, the farmers, incredulous at
first when the old man offered her
services, were glad enough to allow
him to dig in their gardens at a dol
lar a day. Besides that the old man
did odd chores.
''He must be making a mint of
money, Lucy" said her husband joe
ularly.
Its all coming to Frank and you,"
Old Mark would say, when they re-
preached him. 81 got to do some
thing to earn my keep, seeing as
Niece Jane has got my farm and I've
got nothing to pay you with"
But it isn't necessary. to. pay
penny, uncle" Lucy would say, half
crying. People will think we make
you work for u.s."
81 guess not" answered Old Mark.
81 tell 'em that Pm doing it against
your wishes. But it's all coming to
you"
That sounded well enough, but no
body had seen any Of Marks money.
The postmistress stated that the old
man had bought money orders re-
Gently. But to whom was he sending
his money? To a bank?

"But I'm eighty-fve next month,
and amt going to do stitch of
work after Pm eighty-fve," said
Mark, chuckling.
Indeed, Marks industry afforded
the farmer and his wife less time for
meditation than formerly. The sea-
son had been poor, the crops had not
ripened-it was the wet summer of
a few years ago; finally, the price of
corn had gone shooting down. The
struggle of the 'ne'er-do-well'' Frank
Smith had long excited the derision
of his relatives. He seemed an in
capable farmer, and they knew moth
ing of the crushing mortgage which
was with difficulty met each interest
day.
At last Frank and Lucy had to face
the prospect of selling out and NOV
ing to the city. We'll take Old
Mark" they said.
Old Mark, learning of his relatives
difficulties, did not appear greatly
concerned. 'It's life" he said.
That's all. 1t happened to me. I
guess can go to the poorhouse.
"You certainly will not go to the
poorhouse so long as 1 can work."
said Frank.
At last the farm was advertised for
sale. Nobody was surprised, but sew
eral people were pleased. The Adams
family were very pleased.
"And he thought he could feed an
extra useless mouth" sneered Philip.
ct serves that woman right" said
his wife, ''for trying to reproach us
with not looking after Mark. Why
don't you buy the farm, Philip? It'll
trampIe them into the dust. And I'd
like to know what they'll do with Old
Mark then"
I'm going to bid for it," answered
Philip shrewdly. eff it goes for a
song, I'll take it."

ing information that may lead to her arrest.
 They had spent some time at a roadhouse and left there about one o'clock to go to Laughton's. At the Collins ranch the woman got out of the machine and disappeared behind some haystacks. Geiger says he went to look for her and was confronted with a revolver from which she fired four shots. One bullet went through his hip, another through his shoulder, one through his right arm and an other near the nose. Geiger walked and crawled to the roadhouse and from there Sheriff Terrell was call ed. Geiger has been at Sparks eighteen months. His wife died about three months ago.

The time has long since gone by,
If it ever was here. when men

ring up Of this uncleanness is of
itself q wholesome thing, and
rather like it served up with
glaring headlines in their family
paper every week--such as the
arrival and departure OF a travel
ing courtesan, accompanied by a
short lecture on the physical dan
gers awaiting her attendants,
which was given in the News
short time ago. It is a rather
tame imitation Of the Jim Jam

for the pruirient minded and
sells papers. We question the
statement of the News that any

Milbank want it or are DESTROYS

entire editorial department to
a iong-haired young friend of
ours, whom nature had cut out
for tirst-class funeral director,

in life in not finding job, and
has ever since been in an uncer-
tain frame of mind whether to
take to the stage, or comb his
hair back and be poet thor
oughly satisfied in his own mind
that the world is bound to lose
either great actor or a greater
poet, and while debating the
matter has consented to remain

upon the screen.
