By KATE EDMONDS A
(Copyrigat,)
I* WAS a fashionable bazaar at the
beautiful country home of the
Forbes family, who were keen about
charitable affairs. All the world of
society was there, among them Boyd
Mercer, one of the richest young men
in the country, and one of the best!
Everybody liked him, and many
scheming mothers thought of him as
a desirable husband for young daugh-
ters, or, possibly, daughters not so
young! Boyd had met a thousand
girls, and not one had raised more
than a thrill of admiration in his
stony heart.
Boyd was here today at the Forbes
charity bazaar, and as usual he was
wandering around, finding friends and
a welcome at every turn. He bought
flowers and distributed them to older
women, he bought sweets, which he
also distributed. He took all sorts
of chances and had phenomenal luck,
and then, suddenly bored, he wan-
dered off by himself, admiring the soft
lighting of the different gay tents.
In one tent he found the smell of
fresh violets and was not surprised to
discover a great crystal bowl filled
with the purple flowers. Within this
fent a pale green curtain separated
the crystal gazer from her clients,
who waited in the outer part of the
tent until they were summoned be-
hind the curtain where the “seance”
took place. Boyd stood there in the
outer tent, gazing down at the bowl
of violets, and hearing the sound of
a gentle voice nearby. Suddenly he
was aware that it must be the voice
of the crystal gazer and he listened
eagerly, shamelessly, for he was fas-
cinated by the sweetness of the tone
with its occasional lift. Then the
voice ceased and he heard a girl's soft
laughter, and a merry good-by, then
utter silence. At last, a slim mulatto
girl in swathings of eastern draperies
glided toward him and salaamed.
Then as she straightened herself, she
swept one arm in a graceful gesture
inviting Boyd to enter behind the sec-
ond green curtain.
Boyd found himself in*the presence
of a woman, a straight, slim figure,
clad in a long medieval gown of jade
green with the lower part of the face
hidden in a swathing of white.
The woman lifted such wonderful
eyes to Boyd Mercer that for the first
time in his carefree bachelorhood, he
felt a peculiar agitation in the region
of his heart. ‘Hold it!” he told him-
self savagely, “the rest of her face is
most likely hideous. Eyes are de-
ceiving.”
“Eyes are the windows of the soul,”
came the lilting voice of the woman
in green, as she sank into a straight,
high-backed chair that was a fitting
throne for her medieval figure. Her
voice had followed so swiftly upon
his mental conclusions, that it was
just as if she had read his mind.
As she pulled toward her on the
green-covered table a erystal ball, she
looked up and caught his intense gaze
with the snare of her unusual eyes.
Then she dropped them swiftly and
murmured, “Now, I will gaze into the
heart of the future and read fortune's
gifts for you.”
“Well done,” Boyd was thinking.
“Very well done. I should like to
know that girl.”
“Deep in the well of silence lie the
great secrets. Think not—concen-
trate on nothing—the future will be
revealed,” came the voice of the crys-
tal gazer.
Boyd lost himself in thoughts of
what she was doing, gazing deep,
deep, into the crystal’s heart. He sat
tensely trying to think about noth-
ing-—a difficult task for an amateur.
hen came the voice again. strange,
faraway, as if her mind was in the
future and her voice was in sym-
pathy with it. *“You have wealth—
all the wealth of the world could not
make you richer if you were not the
poorest man in the world! You have
not the love of any woman who is
not related to you—you have looked
in countless eyes—and looked away.
Always you will be alone, surrounded
by friends who are fond of you. Your
face is here in the crystal, but you
are always alone. Fame you may
have, for you are talented. Go forth
and seek the love of a woman for no
fortune teller can tell the fate of a
man who—"
Noiselessly Boyd Mercer crossed the
rug and stood on the other side of the
table. He, too, leaned over the crys-
tal gazer’s great ball and their faces
were reflected together in the dark
surface.
“Who says that I cannot love, oh,
gazer of crystals! Tell me who you
are in real life, where you have been
all your days that I have never mei
you before?”
At the sound of the tension in his
subdued voice, the crystal gazer
sighed deeply, then murmured li
ly, “I have always lived in California.
When my people took a trip around
the world they left me with your
cousin, Mrs. Hilton, who was my god-
mciher! I am Grace Allen. Your in-
terview is over, sir. A silver dollar
for sweet charity’s sake!” And then
the brown maid was bowing him out,
perhaps with subdued laughter in her
eyes.
Of course, Boyd Mercer sought and
found his cousin, Myra Hilton, and
heard about her friend, the crystal
gazer. And later, when Grace Aller
came from her tent, laughing, radiant
ly lovely, she held Boyd's cold heart
in the hallow of her little warm hands
And she never gave it back to him!

WEEKLY LETTER WRITTEN EX.
PRESSLY FOR THE BULLETIN
BY DR. DAVID H. REEDER
HEALTH IN THE GARDEN: |
There is more than one ways in |
which health may be found in the
in the garden. First and ost im- |
portant is the value of the fresh |
green vegetables-better than all the |
mineral dope and poisons ever coll-
ected in the largest drug store,
better by far because it is safe and
pleasant to use. Next in import-
ance is the value of fresh, outdoor
air and sunshine that one gets
while “making garden” and then
comes a factor of which I presume
most people never take account;
the elimination through the pores
of sweat glands of poisonous waste
matter that is brought about by
virgorous work during the hot
spring days.
There is no way of getting this
matter out of the system that is
so effectual as by active exercise
in the open air, exercise that will
cause free and copious prespira-
tion.
The tired business man in the
city knows the value of good sweat,
so he goes to a Turkish + bath and
lies in a stifling hot room until the
water comes from every pore of his
skin and while he feels greatly
benefited, especially afier the
thorough massage and the shower,
and a plunge in the swimming tank
which follows, as a matter of fact
he has not received one-half the
actual benefit he would have re-
ceived by a discharge of vastly less
water that is thrown out during
exercise,
All of these things can be ac-
curately and scientifically proven
by a simple chemical analysis of
the exudate.
Take a sample of the water
thrown out from the pores of the
skin while in the Turkish bath and
and it will be found to contain less
than half the impurities and waste
or poisonous matter that will be
found in the same quantity of
sweat that is thrown off during ac-
tive exercise. Then again the open
air as against the heated air of the
best ventilated bath house in the
world and the garden has ten to
one the advantage.
There is an element in the free
outdoor air that cannot be had in-
doors. There * is something that
helps life to be stronger, freer and
more worth while. Just as there
is more life and health in the fresh
ripe fruit and the fresh raw veg-
tables than there is in the best
cooked ‘meal that was ever served
by a great chef.
By all means have a garden and
pick the fresh crisp vegetables just
before you are ready to eat them.
The city man cannot buy such a
luxury; they must come direct from
the bountiful hand of mother na-
ture. A recent farmer’s bulletin
issued by the Department of Agri-
culture at Washington, especially
emphasizes this point in regard to
sweet corn, showing how some of
the finest varieties lose most of
their delicate and delicious flavor in
from twenty to thirty minutes after
being picked, but when at once
cooked and eaten are delicious.

mation upon the subject of health

nications to Dr. David H. Reeder,

Rats appear to have a strong
aversion for certain odors, such as
creosote, carbolic acid, and other
coal and woocktar derivatives,
ke o, and peppermint and win-
ter en oils, and this may be tak-
en advantage of in protecting stor-
ed orain from the rodents, or in
preventing reoccupation of old rats
burrows. Flake naphthalene scat-
tered on the floor and over the bags
of sacked grain will keep away the
rats and won't injure the seed.
Non-odorous compounds that rats
avoid can be used where an odorous
material would be objectionable,
as where foodstuffs are kept.
Among these are powdered sulphur,
lime, lve, and copperas. Sulphur
particularly has been found to be
excellent in protecting stored
grains from the ravages of rats.
cee GR ee ee
Ecos are scarce on most farms
during the fall and winter because
the chickens do not get enough
protein for rapid growth during the
summer. An egg, aside from the
shell, contains 13.4 per cent pro-
tein, while poultry flesh contains
21.5 per cent protein. A mixture
of corn, wheat, and other grains
contains only about 10 per cent
protein an should be supplement-
ed with a mash containing high-
protein feeds. Proteins from an-
imal sources are generally better
than those of vegetable origin.
Meat scfap, fish meal, milk, and
tankage are good scources of an-
imal protein. Such feeds not only
increase egg production but lower
the cost of production.

THE COUNTRY NEWSPAPER OF GREAT VALUE
ACCORDING TO STATEMENT OF NOTED
EDITORIAL WRITER—PROVEN BY FACTS
Arthur Brisbane, one of the best minds of the
time, says:
“H. Z. Mitchell’ ‘Sentinel’,” published at
Bermidjii, Minn., wins the prize as best weekly
in the National Editorial Contest. This is. a
good time to remind the public in general, and
national advertisers in particular, that country
weekly newspapers are the most important or-
gans of public cpinion and protectors of public
welfare.
“And, their advertising per mill line, is not
excelled by any publication, of any kind.
“The reader of a country weekly buys every-
thing from shingles on the roof to cement in the
cellar floor, and every advertiser has in him a
possible customer.”
