for awhile to wait the coming OF my
Korak."
"Goodl" said the man, and he led
the way down toward the fiower-coy-
cred bungalow behind which lay the
barns and clubhouse of well-ordered
African farm.
Meriem walked on toward the bun
galow, upon the porch of which wo-
man, dressed in white, waved a well
come to her returning lord. There was
more fear In the girls eyes now than
there had been in the presence Of
strange men or savage beasts. She
hesitated, turning an appealing glance
toward the man.
THAT Is my wife," he said. "She
will be glad to welcome you"
The woman came down the path to
meet them. The man kissed her and,
turning toward Meriem, introduced
them, speaking in the Arab tongue the
girl understood.
"This Is Meriem, my DEAR" he said,
and told the story of the jungle waif
so far as he knew 1t.
Meriem saw that the woman was
beautiful. She saw that sweetness and
goodness were stamped indelibly upon
her countenance. She no longer feared
her. and when her brief story had been
narrated and the woman came and put
her arms about her and kissed her and
called her poor little darling" some
thing snapped in Meriem's heart.
She buried her face on the bosom Of
this new friend, in whose voice was
the mother tone that Meriem had not
heard for so many years that she had
forgotten its very existence. She buried
her face on the kindly bosom and wept
rs she had not wept before In all her
llfe-tears of relief and Joy that she
could not fathom.
And so came Merlem, the savage lit
tie Mangani, out of her beloved jungle
into the midst of home of culture
and refinement. Already "Bwana" and
my dear" as she first heard them
called and continued to call them, were
as father and mother to her.
Once her savage fears were allayed
she went to the opposite extreme Of
trustfulness and love. Now she was
willing to wait here until they found
Korak or Korak found her. She did
not give up that thought. Korak, her
Korak, was always first.
And out in the jungle, far away,
Korak, covered with wounds, stiff
with clotted blood, burning with
rage and sorrow, us soon as suffi-
Client strength returned swung back

What a Railroad Did.

Let me cite one instance Of what
the building of q railroad has meant,
writes 3. G. Forbes In Leslie's. Mon
tana had always been regarded as a
grazing state until A. j. Earling, presi,
dent of the st. Paul railroad, while
travelling over the state by horseback,
spent night ut ranch and noticed
bumper field of wheat next morning.
The owner confided that he had raised
similar yields for over ten years with
out one bad crop, but had not gone in
for wheat raising on large scale be-
cause he was 60 miles from the near
est railroad. Mr.. Earrings peregrIna-
lions convinced him that, although
there had scarcely been furrow
plowed in the whole Judith Basin at
that time, 1t could be developed into
one of the greatest wheat-growing sec
lions In the world. Last year, thanks
to the st. Paul's railroad building, the
Judith Basin, extending some 200
miles east and west and 100 miles
north and south, produced the greatest
part of the 22,O000OO bushels of wheat
grown in Montana, as well as large
part of the 100000 bushels of all
grain marketed by Montana, placing II
among the foremost graln-growing
states.

His animoslty dates back to the
hand-palnted account Of the opening
Of his play, which he wrote and sent
out some twelve hours before the cur

ever, his description of the charms of
the chorus, the plot, the scenery and
the personnel of the audience didn't
suffer on account Of anything like that.
On the question of the beauty of the
music he was especially grandiloquent,
and when he called up the German edI-
torial offices the next morning he felt
that his grievance was Just. But there
they told him he had used a part of
his own copy, without changing a
single word, merely translating It into
German.
"Oh, you did !" raved the young press
agent, and his voice instlnctively told
that he was tearing his hair. II wrote

STATE FAIR TICKET
PRICES NOT ADVANCED

Oklahoma City, Sept. l0.--Despite
the fact that tickets to theaters
and other amusements have increas-
ed in price in Oklahoma and all
over the United States As much as
100 per cent in some instances, ad-
mission to the Oklahoma State Fair
and Exposition this year will be
the same as ever.
This is made possible by the TACT
that the United States government
has specifically exempted bona tide
state fairs from the usual war tax
on admission tickets TO amuSementS.
BY so doing it hopes to encourage
attendance at agricultural eXpoSi-

Also. the government is desirous OF
having the people see its combined
war exhibits, which will be shown

Tickets TO shows or other con-

ARDMORE BOY IN
NASHVILLE BOUT

y Nashville paper recently con-
tanned the following account OF a
boxing bout in which Johnny Lynch,
brother OF {. c. Lynch OF Ardmore,
took part:
"a corker OF a bout was that be-
tween Johnny Lynch, formerly OF
Ardmore, Okla, and Billy August,
and both fighting for the welter-
weight championship of the powder
plant. These are husky chaps with
plenty OF punch and they certainly
believe in mixing 1t to a iare-you'
well, At the end OF six rounds, ref
cree Joe Bateman called it a draw,
but his glims were not working
properly and the crowd thought, and
rightly that Lynch should have been
given the verdict The fight then
went on two or more rounds and
then there was no doubt about
Lynch being the winner, for he
smashed August around in a lively
fashion during the last two frames.
Lynch is a remarkable fighter. Ills
right arm has been broken, cannot
be Strengthened and is withered. He
can use it only to stall and guard,
rs his hitting power with it amounts
to practically nothing, There Is
different story to that lett, however.
The way he can smash with II or
play 4 tattoo on an opponent Is a
caution. And it was thi, terrible lett
that at times made August have
visions OF dreamland. The latter
however. is an old battler, knows
how to cover and guard and recover
and IT was due more TO his ring gen
eral,hip than anything else that he
failed to go to the mat. He fought
Lynch good battle, in fact a hard
battle. ior The Ardmorc youth had
his hands iull and was kept many
time, on the defensive. Its safe bet
though. ii Lynch had two hands as
effective as his lei that he would give
the topnotchcrs OF his class a run
for their money and then some.
These battler, put up fight that
IS a 10Y TO the ian, in that there was
an absence OF hugging and tussling
in clinches all over the ring. They
