Then She told pretty tales Of fair

said wonderful words in such won

all the better in my ears because Of
the mystery by which its meanings
were partly hidden. I had many
questions to ask and she told me what
were fairies and silks and diamonds
and grand ladies and noble gentlemen.
We sat down to one Of our familiar
dinners Of salt pork and milk gravy
and apple pie new enriched by sweet
pickles and preserves and frosted
cake.
A query had entered my mind and

There was q little silence In which
my aunt drew, in her breath and ex-
claimed, "W'yl' and turned very red

Mr.. and Mrs. Dunkelberg also covered

The tea stopped over on the stove.

Seeking Division Of county.

Ever since Jackson county was or.
ganized as part Of old Stanley coun.
~, the residents of that county have
been looking with longing eyes at the
rich section Of Washabaugh county,
just across White river to the south,
and there have been several rumors
Of attaching Washabaugh to Jackson
as one large county. Washabaugh is
a reservation county on the Pine
RidgeN reservation, and the Indians
are not anxious to become residents
Of an organized county, so action has
been slow. 1t is rumored that within
a few days bill will be introduced
by which Washabaugh county is to. he
sliced up and divided between the
counties Of Jackson on the north and
Bennett on the south, and an effort
made to wipe out one county from the
list in the state. Several Jackson
county boosters have been busy, Gust
visiting" among the members for the
session, and now the Indians have
sent a representative in Henry Stand
ing Bear, full blood Sioux, to oppose
the proposed division. He takes the
position that the Indians on the reser-
walton do not want the change, how.
ever much the voters of the organized
counties Of Jackson and Bennett may
want the additional territory, and
that the wishes of the residents of
Washabaugh county are entitled to
consideration when such move
comes up.
