I got my husband through a Tel

No, not a "matrimonial"—
Twenty-five years ago my father
lost his all,

Decided to rent a room.
She advertised it in the Harris

And John Adpagc was among the
first to come.
He was a big, clean country boy

And so, we were married.

What Happened to Jane <

CHAPTER 111.
[Copyright, 1915, Star Company.]
Mrs. Ezra Hardy was sitting' on the
covered porch of the old house as her
daughter and Ned Sanderson opened
the gate and came slowly up the
path.
The house was not far back from
the road. It had been built by Ezra's
grandfather in the days before the
village had spread as far as this
place, and when it was a conve
nience to have the path from the
road so short that it could be soon
cleared of the heavy snow-storms,
which were more frequent three
generations ago than now.
The house had undergone few
changes, l>ut much of the land sur
rounding it, and which had once
been a part of the old farm, had
been sold bit by bit by the present
owner until only a few of the orig
inal acres remained. Farming did
not pay in these days, Ezra Hardy
was wont to declare, in these sales.
Nor was he as strong as when he
was younger. He had no sons to
work the plaoc for hlni, his one boy
having died in infancy. Jane, was
now his only child. He was almost
glad of this as he realized that it
would take all the money he colild
raise to support his wife and him
self should they live to be as old
as his parents had been.
He must mortgage the old home
still further than he had already
done unless he could succeed in sell
ing the lot back of the house. It
was doubtful if this piece of land
could be sold at present, for it was
not a good building site, and that!
was all that people wanted prop
erty for in Milton nowadays, for
building lots.
It was of these things that Ezra
had talked to his wife this evening
before starting for church. Jane
had gone earlier than her father,
for she must attend the Christian
Endeavor service at 7 o'clock. And
it was of this conversation that
Mrs. Hardy had mused as she sat
here alone after her husband's de
parture. For there had been more
to the conversation than the mat
ter of the farm. Almost timidly
Ezra had remarked upon the fact
that Augustus Reeves seemed to
like Jane a good deal.
"I guess," he said awkwardly,
"that he'd ask her to marry him if
he dared."
A Good Man and a
Deacon In tlic Church.
"Oh, Ezra!" the mother protested.
This idea had occurred to her often
of late, but it sounded disagreeably
bald when put into words.
"Well, why not?" her husband |
argued. "He's a good man and .1!
deacon in the church."
"But he's too old for Janie," the j
mother demurred. "She's only ]
twenty-one and he must be forty-1
five. Besides" with an effort to j
voice her conviction "she don't j
love him."
"Perhaps she don't now," Ezra j
conceded, 'but she may learn to. !
And, Maria, he can give her a good!
home, for he's well off."
"I know it." the mother agreed. I
"But love's mor'n money. We mar
ried for love, Ezra."
She laughed embarrassedly as she |
said tt, then added: "And I've never I
felt sorry we did." I

"Nor me, either," her husband af
firmed. "We've had our ups and
downs, but. we've had a good life to
gether. But you've had to work
hard, Maria, and I'd hate to have my
daughter work like you've had to."
"So should I," Mrs*, Hardy ac
knowledged, "and she shan't so long
as I'm able to do for her. But if
she can get a job as a school
teacher she'll be all right. That's
what, we sent her to normal school
for, you know."
"She'll have to leave home, then,"
said the man, "unless she can get
a job in the village school here. I
suppose if she was to jisk Reeve*
to say a word for her he'd do it, for
he's on the school board. But if
she won't let him keep company
with her I guess he won't do even
that for her."
There had been a pause before
Ezra added, rising and stretching.
"If she took him, we'd never have to
worry about what would happen to
her if we were to die, Maria. Well,
I must be going to church. I guess
you're too tired to go aren't you?"
"Yes," the wife said, "I am too
tired."
Her husband did not kiss her be
fore starting for the sanctuary. Such
caresses between them were re
served for use before longer jour
neys than a half-mile walk, and for
greater periods of time than an
hour and a half. Yet when they
were young he used to kiss her
often, the %vife recollected now. For
they had loved each other always,
though now that they were old they
said less abput it and did not
"spoon" as young people did.
This brought her mind back to
the conversation with her husband,
and on that, she pondered until Jane
and Edward Sanderson came up the
patch to the door,
lie Asks Jane's Mother
If lie Can Stay Awhile.
The farmer's wife smiled with
pleasure at the young man's defer
ential yet gay greeting. She liked
Ned Sanderson, had liked him ever
since she first saw him. She looked
at him now with approval, admir
ing his immaculate white flannels,
his correct straw hat, his general
air of prosperity.
"He looks rich." she mused, "and
yet he says he's a poor bookkeeper.
But city fellows always dress as if
they were rich."
"May I sit down here on the step
at your feet for a minute?" Ned
asked. "I'm only going to stay a
short time, for I happen to know
that Miss Hardy is expecting an
other caller."
He glanced mischieviously at Jane.
Mrs. Hardy noted—as she had noted
before—that this boy did not call
her daughter Jane as all the village
fellows did. She liked his courtesy
and lack of presumption. They had
all the charm of novelty for her,
accustomed as she was to the rather
free-and-easy ways of the country
youths.
"Jane expecting a caller?" she re
peated as the sense of what Ned had
just said penetrated to her mind.
"Who is it, pray? And how do you
know he's coming?"
Ned laughed. "It's Air. Reeves."
he replied. "He wanted to walk
home with her—but I beat him to it."

ft:
8841 (With Rusting Line and Added
Seam Allowance) Set of Collar with
Cuffs, One Size.
Up-to-date accessories are really so im
portant that new ones are always in de
mand. Here is an excellent model for a
coat collar, a most satisfactory design
for a collar to be worn over a dress or
i blouse and two of the new cuffs that
I suggest the gauntlet idea. The coat collar
can be worn open or closed. The dress
co!!sr is finished with s little cape and
this cape can be worn over the blouse or
! under it as may be found the more be
coming. There are two styles of cuffs
and the cuffs with the straight upper
; edges can be cut in three different depths,
i Altogether, the pattern is a most usefuj
i and satisfactory one. For the coat collar,
I either the material of the garment or the
trimming material can be used; for the
dress collar, fine batiste, handkerchief
lawn and the. like are pretty for a dainty
effect, pique and heavier linen for occa
sions of greater service and the cuffs
[would of course match the special gown
1 for which they are designed. They can
be joined to the lower edges of the slrteves
or they can be drawn over their, and
stitched into place to give something
more of the gauntlet effect. They Will be
found especially valuable for the length
ening of sleeves cut to elbow or three
quarter length. j
For the coat_ collar will be needed,
yd. of material in any width; for the dress
collar will be needed yd. of material 27
In. wide, */% yd. 36 or 44 in. wide: for either
cuff, yd. 27 in. wide, yd. 44 in.

gaged in making metal pipes is now
shipping 3,000 shells a week.
This conversion of all sorts of shops

might seem to entail a heavy invest

the war is over. As a matter of fact,
the first order usually pays for all
the machinery needed.
All Working for Europe
Binocular companies, wire firms,
electrical concerns, are all making
something: to fill European orders.
Small plants that have been closed for
years are running at capacity. The
prosperity extends largely to Akron,
Youngstown, and other small nearby
manufacturing places. The stock of
one tire company in Akron went up
to. 804 Va a few days since. Another
large rubber company, that has not
paid a dividend since its organization,
recently experienced a rise on the ex
change from 20 to 78.
Needlesß to say, a great deal of
money has been made in stock here
in the last few months. Also, a goodly
share of the prosperity is getting into
the pockets of the people by way of
the payment of large dividends. A
less satisfactory phase is the fever of
speculation that has struck this, as
well as many other cities.
The Federal Reserve Banks are re

coming the standard of exchange. In
cidentally, the banks find themselves
in possession of large funds that are
idle. They therefore encourage their
customers with large holdings to buy
stocks, and the customers with small
holdings follow suit—usually after the

rid of that shiny and muddy appear

ounces of spurmax in one-half pint
