CHAPTER vli-continued.

-1U-
Mr.. Starr on Thursday morning had
taken the early eastbound train to
Burlington. He attended the evange-
listic services at the tabernacle in the
afternoon and evening. and then went
TO bed at the hotel. He slept late the
next morning. When he finally ap-
peared the clerk came at once from
behind the desk to speak to him. Two
or three other guests, who had been
lounging about, drew near.
''We've just been reading about your
girls, sir" said the clerk respectfully.
"It's pretty nervy little bunchl You
must be proud of themI"
my girlsI" calculated Mr.. Starr.
Haven't you seen the morning pa
per? You're Mr.. Starr. the Methodist
minister at Mount Mark, aren't you?"
81 am! But what has happened TO
my girls? Is anything wrong? Give
me the paper!"
Five minutes later Mr.. Starr and his
suitcase were in a taxicab speeding
toward Union station, and within eight
minutes he was en- route for Mount
Mark-white In the face. shaky in the
knees, but tremendously proud In
spirit.
Arriving at Mount Mark, he was in
stantly surrounded by an explanatory
crowd of station loungers. The name
OF Prudence was upon every tongue,
and her father heard 1t with satisfac-
Tn. fhA hA of
least two-thirds of the Ladies' Aid So
ciety, the trustees and the Sunday
school superintendent, along with a
miscellaneous assortment Of ordinary
members, mixed up with Presbyteriaps,
Baptists and few unclassified outsid-
ers. And Prudence was the center of
attraction.
She was telling the "whole story"
for perhaps the fifteenth time that
morning, but she broke off when her
father hurried in and flung her arms
about him. "Oh. papa" she cried,
''they mustn't praise me. l had no
idea there was burglar in the house
when ran down the stairs, and hon.
estly can't see that much credit is
due me-"
But Mount Mark did not take it SO
calmly. And as for the Methodist
church-well, the Presbyterian people
used to say there was mo living with
those MethodIsts, since the girls caught
burglar In the parsonage" OF course
1t was important, from the Methodist
point of view. Pictures of the par
sonage and the church were In all the
papers for miles around, and at their
very next meeting the trustees decided
to get the piano the Sunday school had
been needing for the last hundred
yearsi
When the FIVE hundred dollars ar
rived from Chicago. Prudence felt that
personally she had no real right to the
money. 1--WE must divide it." she in
sisted. "for didn't earn it bit more
than any of the others. But 1t is
perfectly glorious to have five hundred
dollars, isn't It? Did you ever have
Eve hundred dollars before7 Just take
1t. father, and use it for whatever we
need. It's family money"
Neither the younger girls nor their
father would consent to this. But
when Prudence pleaded with them ear
nestly, they decided to divide it.
II will deposit two hundred and fifty
dollars for the four younger ones," he
snid, .and that will leave you as
much"
So 1t was settled, and Prudence was
happy girl when she saw it safely
put away in the bank.

SPLENDID CROP OF ONIONS ON TEXAS FARM.
Clemson College Bulletin.)

Clemson College Bulletin.)
As soon as the onions are three or
four inches high they should be cul-
tivated, using an ordinary wheel hoe.
1t is very necessary to- continue this
cultivation, especially after every rain,
until the onion begins to bulb. If the
onion field is allowed to- become badly
infested with grass or weeds it will be
very expensive TO eradicate them.
Therefore. it is necessary to destroy all
grass and weeds as soon as they ap-
pear.
Onions are harvested soon after the
neck begins to shriver and the top
bends over and commences TO turn
yellow. The onions are then pulled
up by hand, the tops wrung off In the
field and the bulbs placed in half BUSH
ell baskets. They are then transferred
to fiat crates three feet wide and four
feet long the sides being four inches
high and the ends five inches high. The
bottom of the crate Is made of lattice;
leaving one-haf inch between the
strips for an air space.
These crates are stacked one on top
Of another in shed where the onions
are allowed to remain until danger of
freezing weather; they are then placed
IN storage or sold.
Air Circulation.
The object of having the ends Of
the crate one inch higher than the
sides is to afford a free circulation
Of air when the crates are placed on

New Mirror 10 Maoniner.

A mirror which magnifies at any dis.
tance without distorting the lines or
the focus of the object reflected has
been perfected by an Erie (Pa.) manu-
facturer. The mirror is particularly
adapted to the needs Of mechanics In
looking underneath or In back Of OBJ
jects, but is also q practical household
article. As 1t reflects white light, It
is said to recommend itself particular
ly to the examination of internal or un-
derneath mechanical parts which are
difficult to readjust unless taken to the
light for examination. Hence. 1t Is
also claimed to be invaluable for ex-
amining the throat. teeth, mouth or
eyes.

top of each other. This will leave an
air space Of about one and One-hMf
inches between the onions and the bot
tom of the crate above.
The old method of curing onions was
to gather them by hand as soon as they
were mature, throwing three or four
rows together and allowing them to dry
partially for a few days.
The best varieties of onions to grow
in the South for commercial purposes
are White Pearl and Prize Taker.
These are onions of large size. attrac-
tive appearance and very mild flavor.
Bermuda onions may be grown In some
sections of the South profitably. The
Crystal Wax is probably the most sat
isfactory of the Bermuda type.
Important Truck Crop.
The onion is one of the most Inn
portant of our truck crops. Many
carloads are shipped into this stete
every year from southern and northern
points, yet onions can be grown to per-
lection In this state. They thrive best
on very fertile, sandy, loan soil. On
clayey soil they will grow fairly well.
but they are much more difficult to cui-
tivate' than on q sandy loann and the
yield is never as great. In selecting
land for onions, care should be taken
not to, select a field previously grown
in grain, as the grain will volunteer
and cause considerable trouble. coming
up at about the same time that the fall
onion seeds germinatc.

And later. Chesterton says: His

they continued TO stimulate him
long after he had quarrel with her
forever"
AS a matter OF fact so greatly did
Dickens love Mary Hogarth that
when she died at the age of Il he
