Went Into Business.
When she heard the news Miss
Thompson determined never to wed,
and turned to a business life. Her
brother was then one of the big Off
Gals OF the Burlington railroad and
owned a string of eating houses. After
serving her apprenticeship in the bust
ness she became the manage of these
railroad restaurants and operated
them for years until his growing for
tune found other means of increasing
his revenue, and he sold out.
Miss Thompson hen devoted her at
tention to civic betterment programs
which she outlined and carried out I'M
der the patronage of a number of wom-
ems clubs. Only a few months ago.,
when the Lincolnshire, a fashionable
tearoom, got into financial difficulties,
she was persuaded to take over the
management. When this was sold out
she was free again.
Brown, Now Rich, Helps Tramps.
In the meantime Brown had become
a millionaire. His wife died and he
devoted his time and money to the
amelioratiOn of tramps. He made his
home in Denver, and there sought the
privilege of conducting a lodging house
for the down-and-outs. Mayor Speer
told him he required a man who knew
tramps. Brown thereupon dotted his
fine raiment, put on old clothes and
started out as a tramp. He said he
wanted to study the unemployed at
first hand, find out how they lived and
what their ambitions We're. and then
help them. He did this, and in time
became known nationwide as the mil
liondire tramp. He rode box cars with
them, shared their meals in wayside
camps n slept with them in box cars.
Out of his experience rose a desire
to tell the world about them, and he
turned author. Two of the best known
of these books are Broke and "The

Effects of Late Empress
Bring $1,000 at Auction

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS of England's old
est and highest families stood with
almost fearful eyes when the once
priceless effects of the late Empress
Eugene of France were sold under the
hammer at ridiculously small prices,
but still beyond their impoverished
purses. The goods sold were prinei-
pally her late majesty's dresses, slip
pers, gowns, laces and furs.
Most Of the stuff was bought by
dealers, although some of the former
empress servants and followers were
able to buy small articles.
The 100 lots brought about $4,000,
which would hardly hav paid for n
of the court gowns worn at the royal
festivities in the days Of splendor.
A lot Of rare Alencon lace brought
$1,115. and a fur stole 1925. A beaott-
full rug into which was woven the
royal cipher with the arms OF Spain
and France, given to the empress on
her wedding day by the carpetmakers
of Seville, was bought by a French
man and will be presented to a French
museum. 1t is supposed to have been
on this rug hat the Emperor Napo-
leon III and IMPRESS knelt when they
received the blessing after their mar
rage.

WHERE C0STLIEST
Perfume Is MADE:
Bulgaria, Home of Altar of Roses,
Is Suffering From Short
age of Crop.

Observation-Disclosures are not doing SO
well in Bulgaria this year.
This is not the casual statement that
it may appear. 1t amounts to a great
deal more han a statement, for exam
pie, that CALIFORNIA; peoples are suf-
fering, that the blue-bonnet crop is not
up to the standard in Texas, or that
the daisies in Maryland are scarcer
than usual. A bulletin by the National
Geographic society's headquarters here
tells why.
"Roses are not merely things of
beauty in Bulgaria." says the bulletin.
"They constitute a real crop, and mean
as much to some parts of the country
as cotton means in Georgia, or pota-
toes in Maine. 1t is literally true that
the rose means bread and butter to
thousands of Bulgarian country folk.
Great fields of roses are grown that
the petals may be made to yield each
its infinitesimal share of altar of roses,
the last woodland the most expensive
in perfumery.
at Is in the valleys on h southern
slopes Of the Balkans that roses nave
been grown for generations for the
perfumery industry, for there the ell
mate, soil and drainage are just right
in normal seasons for this most exact
ing flower. Before the World war there
were probably between 25,OOO and So
900 acres of rose gardens in the Bull
garian rose belt and the annual yield
of the altar was about 100000 ounces.
But perfume was not greatly in de-
mand in the German and Turkish
world to which Bulgaria's exports were
confined during war time, and roses
gave way to the tobacco plant, whose
particular fragrance was more appre-
ciated by the millions of men under
arms. Since the war rose-growing has
recovered, but in no postwar year has
the acreage climbed above $4,000.
Most Concentrated Product.

concentrated agricultural products II

In the world. The countless rose petals
grown on an acre yield only a few ia
blespoonfuls of the fragrant ok The

Quack Grass and Thistle
Difficult to Eradicate

Canada thistle and q71ack grass are
undoubtedly two of the most difficult
weeds to eradicate, once they have be-
come well established. In fact they
are difficult to handle even If they APP
pear only in patches because of their
underground rootstocks which are
capable of growing and sending out
new plants under the most adverse
conditions. On farms where these
weeds have just barely gotten a foot
hold, an effort should be made to get
rid of them Immediately, otherwise
they become a ena to crop produe-
ton.

Sweet Glover Valuable
for Soil Improvement.

Sweet clover pasture will not have
to- be seeded each year, provided it is
not pastured too close and a few
plants are allowed to develop seed.
Under these conditions, the sweet
clover is reseeded. 1t is not well, how
ever, to let the sweet Glove occupy
any field too long, because it is a valu-
able crop for improving the soil, and
we must pay attention to supplying our
soils not only with nitrogen but vege-
table matter.

Chief Justice Taft in opinion supported by majority

what you came to see about?"

But before she could finish, an
other bell interrupted.
'No doubt-they came-to go-to
church," he said jerkily. Ppm the
church bell!"
"No. That isn't it either" Nick
spoke up. 1--WE came to"
"Tinkle! Tinkle! Tinkle!" went an

"No such thing!" declared a fourth.
They've come for dinner. "Ding!

other. They've come to visit some

"Ha, ha, ha! that's good one"
cried still another bell. "They've
only come to see what time it is. Pm
the clock-bell."
Get odtH Who should know bet

a new voice.
With all the bells talking at once
there was such a noise the Twins
couldn't have made any. one hear if
they tried.
So. taking hands, they ran back to
the little train, leaving the silly bells
quarreling behind them.

Swedish Cigarettes To
Carry Slogan OF Safety

Stockholm, June 20.--The 1.-TWO
Million Dollar Cigarette" is one of
lie main arguments advanced in
the present nationwide drive in
Sweden to prevent fires through
the careless throwing away Of
cigarettes, undertaken by the Fire
Prevention Society.
Some time ago n lighted cigar
cite, thrown carelessly down by a
youth in a saw mill, started fire
which was not eXtinsuished until
nearly $2,000,000 worth of property
had been destroyed. Other large
fires have been started in the same
way. The Fire Prevention Society,
desiring to enlist all possible for
ces in it's campaign, suggested to
the Swedish Tobacco Monopoly,
which controls the output Of Gig
arettes in Sweden, to print the
warning, xiii your cigarette when
you are through with it," upon
every package. The executives Of
the monopoly Immediately agreed
to cooperate by adopting the sug-
gestiOn.

warning in question will appear in
