Of her blue eyes. "Why is she a
poor thing? haven't any pity for
q woman who doesn't have brains
enough to hold her own husband!
She thought she could go around
looking like something out of
10-cent store. and still have her
husband crazy about her! And
then she blames me because he
fell for my silk stockings and
choker beads and lipstick."
Bobbie left her, wondering how
much OF what she had said was
the truth. Did a man really fall
for the pretty clothes and the
paint and perfume that a woman
wore?
Poor Man!
Couldn't a man see a woman's
beauty unless it was set off by the
right kind of clothes? Was it true
that fine feathers made fine birds?

She spoke as IL she had been in
pictures for years, instead of only
few days all told.
On Saturday night the little
book store stayed open until Q
o'clock. And it was along about
$3.50 when a woman with a little
girl came in, and walked UP the
stairs to the balcony where the
children's books were kept.
Something about her seemed
familiar to Bobbie, who got a
back view of her as she went
up with the child clinging to
her hand.
Then she heard her voice as
she spoke to Miss Gray. 1t was
Lottie Schultz's voice.
Bobbie ran up the short flight
of steps to her.

her by the shoulders and kissed
her on both cheeks.

EXPECT PLENTY
OF SEED CORN
Kitchen Predicts Sufficiency
This Year-Sl0pe Pros.
poets Good

Confidence that plenty Of seed corn
will be produced in North Dakota this
year was expressed here today by
}. A. Kitchen, commissioner Of agri-
culture and labor.
Information reaching his office,
Kitchen said. shows that the corn
crop has progressed rapidly during
the last few weeks and some fields
IN the western and southern part of
the state already are ripe enough to
pick.
Vagaries Of the weather, he said.
transformed what appeared to be a
sure shortage Of seed corn into a
reasonably safe prospect. Corn was
late and did not approach maturity
as rapidly as had been hoped. At the
same time. however, weather condi-
tlons were generally favorable to the
small grain crop.
RT0m0teo Threshing Operations
en- said, that when the small grain
crop was safely out of the way the
weather should turn warm and cause
the development Of corn which re-
Gently has been apparent. Another
important factor, he said, is that re-
cent fair weather throughout most Of
the state has promoted threshing op-
erations.
In q recent bulletin the federal
agricultural depa artment advised farm
ers to make plans for obtaining seed
corn for next year. pointing out that
the indications were that it would
,be scarce. much Of the corn in the
corn belt and northward is so far
behind that it has little chance to
mature sufficiently for seed before
FROST" the bulletin said. The bull
letin urged farmers to save what seed
they held over from last year but
to inspect it to see that it is free
from worms and. II necessary, to
treat it with chemicals to insure that
It will keep in good condition.
Although many fields in the north
ern and eastern parts Of the state
already have been frosted. indications
are that the western and southern
sections will produce enough north
ern grown seed to meet the demand.
Kitchen said. He advised, however,
that farmers will do well to obtain .
sufficient supply Of good seed corn
as early as possible.

His original opposition to special
