afated he said TO her: Tonight"
And the night had come, dressing
the April sky In pale stars, and Miss
Emmeline in satin and pearls. But
the man himself never came. She had
never seen or heard from him again.
Indirectly she learned from village gos-
sip that he had been called to town,
but from him there had come no mes
sage out of the void.
The days crept into months and
heightened into years, money came to
Miss Emmeline, and n spacious house
and friends in plenty. 1t was only
love that had passed her by. The
eager, happy girl turned into the cold,
hard woman. One day, she learned
from an announcement In the papers
that he had marrled-years after
wards from the same source, that he
was dead. And only few months be-
fore her nephew, the one human being
In the world upon whom she had Law
lshed what affection she had left in
her to give, had married the daugh-
ter of the man who had won her heart
one spring day and thrown it away
as carelessly as he might have flung
away faded flower from his coat.
But had he? Was 1t possible that,
after all, they had been separated not
by his Indifference, but by some awful

When the butler answered her ring, she
spoke imperiously:
Barnes, l want this telegram sent
at once. Also please tell Mrs. Yates
that am expecting my nephew and
his wife at any moment, and that 1
wish rooms to be prepared for them
Immediately"
When the man had left the room
again Miss Emmeline walked across
to the long French window, and, smil-
ing happily, threw it open. She was
anxious now to hear the bells. All the
bitterness Of many years had melted
from her heart, as snow melts In the
sun. She could meet Walters wife
now without hate, nay with eagerness,
Walters wife, who might have been
her own child. She drew deep breath
as the bitter-sweet scent Of the chrys-
anthemums came into the room on a
rush of cold air. 1t was a good world
after all.
The Christmas peace stole into Miss
Emmeline's heart as she looked upon
the whiteness of the hills. The bells
still rang loudly, for it was Christmas
day and the Christ child walked about

customary, awaiting her attention in a
neat pile on her desk.
A disdainful smile curved her lips
rs her long thin fingers turned over
the envelope. Then suddenly her face
changed. It was as If a summer wind
had blown a little pink into It's cold
ness-for a moment only. The old
frosty look came back into her face
as she ripped open the envelope. Two
letters fell from 1t into her lap. One
sealed, the other folded piece Of note
paper. Miss Emmeline picked up the
open letter without glanclng at the
sealed one. In her heart she said cold
ly: "From his wife, suppose"

mistake? Had fate interviewed, po-
licemanlike, and diverted the traffic of
their lives'into separate turnings? Had
he-Nliss Emmelines breath caught in
her throat with queer little spasm-
really loved her, after all? A mist
loomed up before her as the envelope
| fell away from the sheet. Then the
mist cleared and the sun danced mer-
rily upon it's shiny surface as she read:
"My Dearest: I have no right to
call you this yet, but 1 am hoping that
you will give me the right by return
mail, for am In town, Emmeline, sud-
denly called there by most pressing
and urgent business. had no time

you love me, Emmeline? That is the
question l want above all others to
have answered. Had leisure would
write yoUwords that, like faith, could
remove mountains of opposition and
compel love, but this business presses
so hardly on me at the moment that
it is with difficulty have snatched the
time to write even these few words.
But, whether or not you love me,
believe me that 1 am ever your devoted
lover.
"Ralph."
The letter slipped from Miss Emme-
lines hand with little rustling sound
as of protest as it met the stiff silk Of
her gown. Emmeline, white-haired,
sedately garbed, as she was, was in
the arms Of her lover. What matter if
the man who wrote these magic words
were dead, and that it was Christmas
instead of spring? At last she need
be ashamed of her love no longer, she
could bring it forth, thing Of joy,
into the sunshine of her thoughts. He
had returned her love. he had want
ed her. She had been the desire Of his
youth.
Miss Emmeline rose proudly from
her chair. She trailed her skirt across
the room with the air of a queen.

Miss Emmeline read no further. With
trembling hands she picked up the sec
ond letter. Two little spots flared sud-
denly in her cheeks as she stared at
the envelope. Yes, it was the hand
writing of the man she loved that
stared back at her. She had not cried

THE FARMER

The farmer is the true type of the
Human Creator.
He says, "Let there bel" and there
is. The harvest is fruit of his will and
his work.
To him who meets the first human
needs-the need for food-be thanks
and praise.
Our thanksgiving is to the farmer,
the glad carrier of the classic curse:
that man should earn his bread by tho
sweat of his brow.
Of all forms and phases of "cui-
ture,' the most serviceable to man is
Agriculture.
Blessings upon him who tills the
soil and with wisdom woos Nature,
winning from her willing hand the sus-
tenance which feeds us all and makes
us, by these material means, partakers
of universal life!
For our food is not gross. It throbs
with the creative warmth of the ever.
lasting fires. It brings to our beings
the vitalizing thrill of the central Sun
In the highest sense food is life-as
well as the means of More Life.
And still more thanks to the farmer
He is the symbol of mans oneness with
nature.
The lavish horn of Autumn pictures
her potential fertility, indeed. But also
man blows Herewith blast of triumph.
The harvest proclaims man s success in
making himself at home on earth-.hc
while he knows himself to be both ser
want and master of the elemental
forces, with which he is one.
Thanks, thanks to thee, Farmer!-
thou who art the primal workman and
provider!
The wholesome fruit of thy holy toll
is not visible food alone, but thought
for the mind and inspiration to the

TURKEY RANCHING

Turkey ranching is new industry
born of the decreasing production OF
turkeys on farms, according to an ar
ticle in the recently published 1916
Yearbook of the United States depart
ment of agriculture.
Exclusive turkey ranching is now
found practically only in the unsettled
foothill regions of California and in
certain sections Of Arizona and other
western, states. In these regions few
persons are engaged in raising thous-
and or more turkeys season. The es-
tablishments are located where the
range is unlimited and the natural food
Of the turkey, such as grasshoppers
and, other insects, green vegetation, and
the seeds of various weeds and grasses,
is abundant. Advantage is also taken
on these ranches of the turkeys relish
for acorns, and where these are plen.i-
full but little grain need be used for
fattening in the fall. -.0
The large flocks Of turkeys are man
aged much like herds Of sheep, being
taken out to the range early in the
morning and brought home to roost at
night. They are herded during the
day by men either on foot or on horse
back, and by dogs especially trained
for the work. -r

ess Marie were afflicted with measles.
Grand Duke Alexis, the 12-year-old
heir, who was reported dead, still lives,
but is very ill.
His attack of measles was compli-
Gated by the breaking out of the old
wound in his foot, dating from the al
legged attempt on his life about four
years ago. He was reported today as
likely to recover. He contracted the
malady from comrade at the front.
The grand duke is being attended by
ko, who has been his constant com.
panion.
Grand Duchess Tatiana is in a serl-
Gus condition, and oxygen has been ad-
ministered.
News of the disaffection of the troops
reached the empress Feb. 81. The pal
ace guard was mobilized for defense,
the riflemen remaining inside the pal
ace with machine guns, while outside
were armored motors.
When the Tsarkoe Selo garrison re-
volted a collision with the palace
guards appeared inevitable
The empress went to the commander
of the guard and said: "My desire is
that you do not fire.
This was taken as an order to sur
render, which he did. Soon revolution
ary troops entered the palace and Off
GERS went to the apartment of the i'm
perial family. To these the empress
said:
"Let there be no violence. I now
am only sister, of charity at the bed
