I did not expect too much of my frieuds.
I kept my nerves well in hand and did
not allow them to bore other people. I

On a well-kept farm about this time
of year it seems kind of comfortable,
after the chorea are done at night tosit up
by the fire read the papers and hear the
wind blow outside. With barns well
filled and with contented animals watm
and dry, with good health in the home,
no pressing debts and a little money
coming in from time to time, the hard
working man can still get a good deal of
enjoyment. City life is all right, too, but
then there are times when it is pleasant
to be a farmer, is the roseate way the

came in contact with a tie. His son, who
was ridiug behind, saw at once that a
serious accident had happened and ap
plied tbe brake, which brought tbe speed
er to a stop, when It was found that the
father's leg had been broken at the ankle.
Here was a trying predicament for a
boy, but he rose to the occasion like a
man. He helped his father from the
speeder and the latter supported himself
on bis knees until the boy turned the
machine around. Then the lad assisted
bis father on behind and started to push
the car. When he got it under sufficient
headway be lumped on and propelled It
back to tbe tunnel. Here F. H. Walker,

One of the greatest strokes of enterprise
by newspaper publishers is the proposal
of the Pittsburg Gazette Times to pay $100
for the best solution to the mystery in
Helen Mathers's remarkably clever un
finished new serial, entitled "Love, the
Thiel," the first instalment of which will
appear lo The Gazette Times on Sunday,
November 8, when full details of the con
test are to be published. The balance of
tbe $5tK) will be distributed as follows: ti"i
to tbe person who submits the second
brat solution, $10 to the one sending the
third best and $3 each to those whosupply
tbe 75 next best. Thousands of people
will ball thia opportunity not alone as a
means of earn Inn Christmas money, but
to show tbelr ability at gathering up the
ends of a strange mystery and clearing it
in few words. Literary talent is not nec
essary as The Gazette Times oilers the
prizes not lor a literary composition, but
for the best Solutions to tbe story. Men
and boys, as well aa women aud girls
may compete. Only the employes ol the
Eubllshers, in faiiuess to the public, will
e ineligible. Instalments of the story
will appear regularly in tbe Sunday and
daily editions of Tbe Gazette Times to the
conclusion of next to the final chapter.
Then solutions will be received during
the period lapsing between that issue and
the issue of the following week. The
prizes will be awarded at the earliest pos
sible date after the Judges have deter
mined the awards in plenty of time to
give the successful contestants use of the
money for Christmas. The Gazette Times
announces that manuscripts of contest
ants must be forwarded by mail, ad
