tiOns regarding the farm. Would he
follow his fathers and grandfather's
footsteps? Today those queries had
been answered, for Henry, immediate
ly after the brief reading of his faith
erS will, had instructed Pangburn to
put the old homestead on the market
AS time passed, however, and the
place remained unsold, Margaret came
to feel for it a continually increasing
fondness. Watching the spring SOW
ing of fields rented to neighbor, tend
ing the small flower gardens about the
doorWays, opening the windows to flood
with steriliZing brightness the unused
house, busting the quiet rooms-all
these activities developed in her al
most sense of part ownership with
Henry Gerrish. And more and more
she waXed indignant with him for
wishing to dispose of his Inheritance
Would-be purchasers happened along
now and again, but for one reason or
another departed unimpressed. One
year passed-two. years-three.
Then one sunny afternoon in April
into John Pangburn's dingy office
stalked a seedy looking youth with
worried lines about his eyes. "Look
here, Mr. Pangburn," he began with
out preamble. "Tm hard up. Things
haven't panned out as 1 hoped What

the taxes. The house won't rent.
Why the deuce doesn't the place sell?"
Pangburn shook his head. "Henry,
I don't know. It's the dickens of a

cry Tom, Dick and Harry, but I've
wondered sometimes-do you suppose
that that Miss Andrews queers the
deal? She'll lose her little income if
she sells the farm"
Henry nodded. "Guess you've hit
it. And she stands to get the COM
mission in the end. Listen, now-Fve
an idea. The girl doesn't know me.
Send me down to look it over as a
buyer and I'll size up the situation"
Good scheme" said Pangburn, "a

Three days later Margaret slipped
a letter into it's envelope, signing as

CAUSES OF MOTOR ACCIDENTS.

A three months study of motor acci-
dents on Maryland roads has brought to
light the interesting disclosure that a
vast majority of the disasters that over
take motorists are brought upon them
selves by their own reckiessness, and
that go per cent of them are due to
speeding, says writer in the September
issue of Public Roads, published by the
Bureau of Public Roads, United States
Department of Agriculture.
Zone of the interesting developments
fot the investigation), the journal goes
on to say, sis that the largest number of
accidents have occurred at places that
have always been considered safe, while
the sections which have been commonly
regarded as being extremely dangerous
are proving to be relatively free from ac-
cidents." Where the State highway
crosses the Blue Ridge Mountains, in the
western part of the State, and grades are
steep and curves sharp, there were but
eight accidents during three months. On
the National Pike, between Baltimore
and Frederick, where there are 48 miles
of the straightest road in the State, the
record for the same time showed 16 accl-
dents, of which were fatal. "And yet"
says the publication, "few stretches of
highway in the whole road system are so
free from any features which might be
considered as dangerous
On the Baltimore Washington road,
with all apparent danger spots removed,
the record shows that during the same
period there was one accident for every
miles of road
There seems to be only one answer to
account for these hitherto unslspected
conditions," the article says That an
swer is:
even the less careful motorists drive
cautiously in the presence of recognized
dangers, such as steep grades, sharp
curves, grade crossing, etc, while the
absence of such dangerous features gives
the driver a sense of security which
prompts him to take chance and yield
to the well-nigh universal passion for
speed"
Few accidents was due, it was found,
to the condition of the roads themselves,
aud most of those were due to slippery
surfaces caused by rains.

A sentry post atop the Rock Of
Glib, has standing orders to report
anything unusual which occurs. One
night soldier walking near this post,
fell over the side, dropped 1000 feet
and quite naturally was killed. The
body was recovered the next morn
ing by the shore patrol. All of the
men who had been on duty the night
before We're called up before S. o. P.

One sentry boldly admitted having
seen the man killed.
