dent that n grave crisis was at hand.
And so Gsace was not surprised
when on the fourth day sne found the
house silent and locked and note ad-
dressed TO her in Mrs. trainings hand
attached to the front 3oorknoD.
Grace read the note sadly.
Dear Grace" the note read, I'm
going away and may not be back for
some time. Please take the key from
under the front door mat and give the
house an airing aud clean things up.
Sorry we won't need you any more.
lnclosed Is check up to the end Of
the week. Yours truly, BESSIE Bran
ming"
This, then. was the ending of her
little adventure-the end, too OF Mrs.
trainings efforts to find husband
for her.
Depressed and unhappy Grace
opened the house and went through
the morning tasks.
How, she wondered, could a woman
quarrel with husband who had pro-
vlded her with such dear homer
How could any woman ever quarrel
with any man who lifted her life out
of nothlngness into something worth
while?
The morning passed quickly. At
noon Grace sat on the davenport in
the now perfectly furnished living
room and tried to make believe that
the house was her own.
A step on the veranda interrupted
her a man entered the rOom--a
young, handsome, prosperous looking
man.
Grace jumped at once TO her feet.
you're Mrs. Branning's husband. I
suppose she calculated. "This Is
your homer
"Hes," the man replied. you're
Grace, who's been helping Mrs. Bran
nlngy'
"Yes."

house very much-that you wish 1t

'Well." here the man hesltated for
a moment, looked nc Grace keenly, tiien
with embarrassment went on, I'm
looking for wife,"
"Your wife-Mrs. trainings gone |"
cried Grace. "rve got a note from
her"
MY wlfe-Mrs. Brannlngl" easped
the man. Then. to Grace's surprise,
he laughed. "Why, she's not my wife,
she's my slsterw
"Your sisterr gasped Grace.
Yes. she's been here helping me
get settled I'm bachelor and I've
been living in rooms so long / de-
cided to get home of my own, wheth-

her husbands sick-been sick for a
couple of days, and she's gone back
to him. And +" he broke Off abrupt
ly to smile at Grace, SAY. you ought
to hear the fine things she says about
you"
"Oh," cried Grace as she felt her
face become fiery red. "Oh, I've got
to go now"
She made for the door.
"Don't go-there's lot | want to
say TO you"
"Oh, must, l must" she ex-
claimed
Through the door she ron. Her
heart beat tumultuously 'The world
seemed joyous and pleasant, her soul
sang.
And when the owner OF the house
caught up with her and stopped her
with hand on ner shoulder, she
turned to him with n smile Of dreams
come true.

1t is estimated that nearly ten per

country is being destroyed by rodents
This loss on the farm can be prevented

Michigan seems to be leading in the
amounts of money appropriated by
county authorities to assist the fed
eral government and the state In
eradicating the disease. To date the
largest appropriation made by any
county I'm the country Is the $4,000
fund voted by county commissioners
of Huron county, Michigan. Other
appropriations in that state are as
follows: Eaton county, $1,000. Cal
houn county, $1,000; Oceana, $4,000;
Clinton, $1,000; Muskegon, $1,000, and
Monroe $1,000. Hlllsdale county, the
first In the country to have all cattle
tested, has made an additional np-
preparation of $500 to continue the
work through the second year. A
number OF other counties have made
additional appropriations of $1,000
each.
Strides In Area Work.
The board of supervisors In a num-
ber of counties in North Carolina have
made appropriations to assist in fight
ing tuberculosis on the area plan.
Some Kentucky counties have used
money for this purpose from the gen.
eral tax levy.
Nebraska is making long strides in
area work, and the county officials are
fast appreclating the fact that era
dication of the plague benefits every.
one in the county and that, therefore,
the funds for carrying on the work
should be derived from taxation.
California was one of the last states
TO enter into cooperative eradication
work with the Department of Agrlcul-
ture. but II is now being carried on
actively in two counties.
