 Why" I said, ''why-it was-it was-' and I recall no more until they awoke me in the harbor and told me that I had sunk down upon a cush- ion and gone fast asleep in the very act of speaking.

ONE CHRISTMAS MORN

Dawn, and the snow-covered earth is wrapped in beauty, mystical. ethe- real.
 I hear the faintly sweet ringing of a distant church bell And dreamily gaze on Gods handi- work, wondering what message the bell sends forth. As if in answer to my musing. another bell takes up the sound, Then another and another. untu all the bells in the little town Are ringing and f1inging out on the clear morning air, joyous tidings. As I listen I seem to hear. For unto you is born this day in the city of David, @ Savior, which is Christ, the Lord Then tenderIy the message comes, For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son." Then calmly and sweetiy, Peace on earth, good will toward
 men" The bells cease. But my heart takes up the Heaven-sent tidings, And, as I knee1 to pray, My very soul is flooded with the glory of His divine love, His perfect peace

Marcia's eyes, and I realize how near came to losing her. And some times I recall the suddenness of her fathers death, and I wonder whether the long arm of Banks had anything to do with it. But that is a sus plcion which I never breathe to Mar chia- She scarcely realizes the full villainy of Banks intentions toward herself and her uncle. and I have even heard her wonder, in charitable surmise. whether, after all, the man was not insane.
 Micah Graham's estate has long since passed into other hands. Mar cia did not wish to keep a place so associated with terrible memories. and I doubt if it's present owners have ~ever imagined one-tenth of the dangers it harbored on the night when I found Marcia.

 I looked over at Marcia. Worn out, she slept. Then I became con scious of a dull pumping, which was doubtless what had awakened me. Turning my cramped body, I dis covered that we were nosing into the beach of a little wooded island, so tiny that could look through its growth to the water beyond, and to the shore of the mainland, about a mile distant.
 Without disturbing Marcia I got over the side and pulled the boat us permit. and made fast. We were certain to be picked up before the morning was far advanced
 I waited until the sun was over the horizon. A ray struck across Marcia s face. and she moved. I went over to her. She looked up at me with trou- bled eyes.
 What an awful dream-'' she be- gan; then the full realization came to her. and her face saddened.
 ''It will be better dear" I said, Eff we always think of it as a dream. But come, if you are rested We have struck on little island, and we must keep an eye out for sails

 While I had waited for Marcia to wake, the tide had been going out

 She was on her feet when I reached her. and she led me back among the trees to a little heap of stones.

Wisconsin adopted dairy farming
many years ago because the farmers
had been raising grain so long, their
fields had become exhausted and
failed to produce profitable yields.
The farmers turned TO the dairy COW
as a soil builder and she proved also
a good maker. And as the milk crop
was harvested daily. winter and sum-
mer and the crops never failed, re-
gardless Of weather conditions or
seasonable rains dairy farming won
a permanent place in their farm oper-
atoms and they have never forsaken
the good dairy COW. Wisconsin is
considered one Of the most prosper

half a chance she is going TO make

attractive dividend. Can you think
Of any other boon that would be more
welcome to the farmer or his
aquiment dealer?
As matter Of fact, the COW has
been trying TO bring about this happy
result for a long time. Perhaps the
first people to realize the bovines inn
portance were those farmers in the
Mohawk Valley Of the Empire State.
Their decision was TO sell more
butter-fat and less grain-and sell It
oftener.
The enterprise spread Westward
and you probably know what ideal
environment was found in Wisconsin
and how the dairy interest have
brought prosperity to that state.
Prior to this industry the Badger
State was rather down at the heels
agrieulturally. Now Cows are an
immense factor 10 the Gopher State

OF course they have gone into
