My Box of Candy

| had box of candy once;
put it on the shelf,
And every now and then | went
And took bote myself.
1t tasted good, but after all,
| thought, though twas my own,
| felt just like a greedy pig,
To eat it all myself.
And so l passed it all around,
From father down to Dandy,
And really that's the incest way,
To eat a box of candy.

Two Little Girls
Chapter !.

Once there was little girl
named Elizabeth. Her home was
in Germany.
When the war broke out Eliza
beth's father had to go and fight
for Germany.
The Germans were winning victo-
ries all the time and she was happy
as she could be.
One day letter came saying
her father was killed.
She cried all that day. The next
morning when she woke up she
heard shouting. She ran to the
window, but just as she got there
the door opened and in came a
French soldier. She sunk to the
floor and said, Il have not done any
harm He answered, who is your
best friend outside of your fami-
ly? MY very, very best friend is
little French girl named Mar
quette," she answered, "Will you
send me to herr"
He answered, Take this paper"
and he left the room.
Chapter III.
She went to France and found the
girl. | will now tell where she
found her.
She, Marquette, lived in a cot.
tage in Paris, France. She was
looking out of the window when she
thought she saw Elizabeth, the lit.
tie German girl. She ran to the
door and called in German to her.
Elizabeth turned around ard saw
her. She ran to the door and said
in French flor she knew French
did you call me? Marquette asked
is your name Elizabeth, the girl
that lived in Germany" My name
| is Elizabeth, and lived in Ger

Helping Others

Once man started to so on a
journey. The path was very rough.
There were many rocks on the
hillside. Among these rocks the
robbers hid themselves, ready to
jump upon the travellers, and take
their money. AS this man was
walking along his lonely way, sud
denly some robbers jumped out
from behind the rocks, and knocked
him down. They took his money
and his clothes, and left him bruis-
ed and hurt by the roadside. After
a while a man came along the road.
He hurried past the wounded man
without stopping to help him.
Then another man came along
the road. He looked at the wounded
man and then, he too, went away
without giving any help.
After while still another man
came along the road. He was rid
ing donkey. He was a good Sa-
marian. He came right up to the
wounded man and, getting off his
donkey, he looked the man over
carefully, to see how badly he was
murt. Then the good Samaritan
poured oil into the mans wounds,
and bound them UP, and putting the
man on his donkey, he walked by
his side until they came to an inn
or hotel. The good SamaritHA took
the man into the hotel 9.ld got a
comfortable room, where ne could
be put to bed, He stayed with the
man all night, and left money with
the hotel keeper to pay for taking
care of the man until he was well.
The good Samaritan was kind and
helpful to this wounded man.

Lives in the Woods

Once upon a time there was a
little girl and her brother.
Her mother told he to go to the
grocery-store to get some eggs.
She had to go in a woods on the
way. So after she went she went
all right, But on the way fack
she could not find her way home,
And she met fairy and asked the
way home.
The fairy asked her where she
was going and she told the fairy,
The fairy said, "Will you come to
my house in the woods?"
So the little girl went to the little
house in the woods, and since that
day she has been in the woods.

Ruth's daughters name We

Ruth's daughters name was
Augusta Garrarr. But Ruth was
very old now, 60, and passed quiet
ly away on the night of Augusta,
1907. Just AZ years from the night
of the opening of this story and the
proclaiming Of the Earl of Greyes-
tolke's Mission.
Ruth's husband was very sad aft
er that. Till finally Ralph died too
in 1917, two years ago. Augusta
was very gay though, and married
John Hoolbroke, a cotton manu-
facturer of the Siuth in 1918, April
Is.
AT QREYESTOLkE MANOR.
AS Augusta slept one night in
her apartment, she woke suddenly
to find herself confronted by a
man, in long coat, standing by
her bedside. Quickly she jumped
out, and ran peil-mell down the
small circular stair case, leading
to the card room. There she was
confronted by another man, who
grasped and bound her. When sud
denly from the top of the staircase
came the scream of a frightened
girl. But the tight gag did not
permit her to breath and she faint.

Greyestolke Manor

Ruth did not feel good about not
escaping, or going rather to Amer
lea. She was still young so she
fraVed adventure. SO she told the
Captain of her secret. He finally
consented to send wireless tele-
gram to America. Some moments
passed before an answer came.
Yes, they would send a tug to meet
the Sagonia in mid-Atiantic. They
were just crossing the equator, so
the Captain figured. At the end Of
ninety-six hours the tug came in
sight, and the Countess of Greyes-
toiko went on board. Ruth paid
the Captain for his kindness, $500,
for which he thanked her a thous-
and times.
At their arrival in America, Ruth
/ Went to her old home on the ma
jestic Hudson river.
To her dismay she found her
father had died during her absence
and left her his fortune and home,
which amounted to $2,109, 709 SO.
Here was another thing to add to
her sorrow. Her husband and
father, both dying inside of two
weeks. That was very unusual.
But it could not be helped. She
made acquaintance very rapidly.
Thus passed away the month of
September 1860. She gave consid-
cradle many dinners and dances
every now and then.
All this happened before you Or
| were ever thought of-in the day
when women wore big pulled out
sleeves and tight waists and long
trailing skirts, which today would
seem very odd indeed
Let's skip three score and eight
years, and come TO the end of the
eighteenth century, and see what
/ has happened to the Greyestolke
family.
Ruth had married and daughter
was born unto them. Her husband,
wealthy gold miner, was Ralph
Gararr, though neither knew. But
when her daughter was 81, she
told her that her father and mother
were cousins, though neither knew,
as | said before. She also told her
that her mother was Ruth Gararr,
The Right Honorable The Countess
Dowager of Greyestolke, who
owned Greyestolke Manor and
Greyestolke Castle and Greyestolke
Arms. Remember the last one
for many are the times will it be
mentioned in the coming chapters.)

Two NURSES RUN DOWN
ON THE STATE ROAD
Mrs. Lille Hastings And Miss Ida
Dickerson, of The Eastern Shore
State Hospital, Struck By Mr.. JAS.
N. Sherman's Car Last Night.

While returning from his farm in
Bucktown, where he had spent the
afternoon in connection with the
| threshing of the wheat crop the au-
| tomobile of Mr.. James N. Sherman,
driven by Mr.. Sherman, struck and
painfully injured Mrs. Lille Hast
ings, of Salisbury, and Miss Ida
| Dickerson, of Chestertown, nurses at
the Eastern Shore State Hospital,
| who were on their way to the Cam
bridge-M Maryland Hospital at inc time
The accident occurred close to 9
o'clock. AS Mr.. Sherman had not
returned from the farm earlier in
the evening, Mrs Sherman, fearing
that he had trouble with the engine
of his automobile, got her son, Mr..
Howard Sherman, to go and ascer-
tain what was OBTAINING him. Find
ing his father On his way home, and
that he was having no trouble, the
younger Mr.. Sherman being unable
to run his car as slowly as his father
was running, came on ahead, telling
his father that he would meet him at
home.
The elder Mr.. Sherman continued
on his way until he got to the farm
of Mr.. William II. Jordan, where the
accident occurred. While on the
road in front OF MIR. Jordan's farm,
he met another automobile, and as
the result of the light shining in his
eyes, did not see the two women I'M
til his machine was right upon them.
In the meantime it is supposed that
they, on account of the noise of the
machine which they were meeting,
and which passed them, did not hear
Mr.. Sherman's machine coming up
behind them, and probably noticing
the light or possibly hearing the ma
chine, turned around just in time to
be struck by it.
The two nurses had left the State
Hospital to visit an acquaintance at
the Cambridge -Maryland Hospital, SO
that they and the machine were go
ing in the same direction. However,
Mr.. Sherman's statement that they
were facing the machine when hel
saw them, seems to be borne out by
the fact that it is said they were
struck in the chest and the forehead,
instead of from the rear. Both of
them were very painfully injured,
Mrs. Hastings sustaining a broken
ankle, and colla- bone, and suffering
numerous abrasions upon her body,
while Miss Dickerson sustained a
broken ankle, bad cut on the head,
and numerous abrasions.
They were hurriedly taken to the
hospital. where their injuries were
attended to by DR.. Guy Steele, and
from the hospital today it is repor
ted that both are getting along as
well as could be expected.
