" As long ago as Jen ny's childhood, the Valley was al ready a solitary place, with only scattered families here and there. The farm was hidden within a belt of woodland, halfway between" the Valley road and the brook, ,. Some meadow ' land, Marm Fierce tended year by year, hiring neighbors to cut back the 1 encroaching under brush, and to harvest the hay; and she and Jenny made a garden suffi cient for their needs. The mead ows that were part of Win's half of the farm were long since gone back to birch and popple and young hackmatack; a youthful wil derness.' v,:-.!.'''. v;- y ', ; '-V: In this remote spot Jenny grew from a baby into childhood. . . She never t, vividly remembered her mother, who died soon after they came to Granny Pierce's farm , to live.: Thereafter the old woman and the little girl dwelt here alone; and Jenny grew older. : Marm Pierce was not a solitary, however; she had some skill with roots and, herbs,' and ,' ; certain healing - power In her, and since there was no doctor nearer than Liberty village, folk hereabout were apt to turn to her to tend their les ser Ills. So visitors came not In frequently to seek. Marm Pierce's ministrations, or to cut and mow her bay, or plow her ,1 garden, or merely for the sake of . passing by, The old woman's sharp tongue was kindly, too; her wit pleased more than It hurt - .And either from friendliness, or from a desire to keep her good opinion, neighbors did her a favor when they could. If a man were going to Liberty vil lage for supplies, he was apt to stop by to ask whether there were any errand be might do.

Also, as she grew older, she took to herself the liberty of the fields, and the' deep woods; and she knew every foot of the brawling stream that from Carey's bridge came In swirls and cascades through a nar rowing gorge, to relax In wide slug gish pools as It entered the cedar bog a little below. , Sometimes, Marm Pierce went with - her ; , or rather, , sometimes when the old woman went search ing here and. there-for the herbs she. required,: she took the ' child along, and taught Jenny to recog nize all those plants which com- She Watched Him for a Moment prised vher 'Simple pharmacopoeia. Later, as she found it not so easy to get about' she sent Jenny herb gathering alone, i"- iy'-yx Kc ,. The girl learned from her grand mother: some of that Infinite lore which the -; .older woman had through the years acquired.) Before Jenny was fifteen, she knew that If you wanted pullets, you must choose blunt-pointed eggs for the hatching; that a piece of red flannel wet twice a. day with strong camphor will cure bumblefoot; that ground to bacco stems will keep Uce out of the hena nests; 'that cast lie soap and tobacco ashes- make the best dentifrice; that borax, or the yolk of an egg mixed with soda, will cure dandruff; that a fence of heavy paper will keep cut worms away from young plants; that wood Ba'uet Ui.'.ved with salt will seal the cracks in -stove; that sulphur Is good for mange;, that a laudanum drench will relieve colic. ; :;; :::' One day In the spring of the year when she was sixteen years bid, she saw Will Ferrln for the first time ; and that day she ceased to be a child and was thereafter In her heart, without herself wholly under standing the change, a woman. Will was at the time Just past twenty one years bid; and be had lived all bis Uf on 1 his' father's farm, sprawled up the slope of the ridge above the brook, on the east side of the Valley. The farm was a good one. even though Its. tilled acres were contracted since the old' days when Enoch, great-grandfather of young ; Will, and ; bis, three sons worked It well, t ' ' Will, when he could be spared from the farm work,' sometimes came down to fish the stream; and be had thus come on this day when Jenny first saw him, Jenny" and Will, though they; bad lived for a dozen years within a mile, or so of one another, had never met , at all. Will camC-to fish a few; of .the deep holes. In the gorge; and Jenny wandered through the woods to the streamside, seeking here and there the' springing herbs which -. Marm Pierce liked to gather in the flood tide of June. 'JUsSsSvftfci .Jenny by old habit moved through the forest silently, .finding pleas ure in surprising the' birds at their pleasant : occupations,'': In ' catching quick fleeting glimpses of small creatures-unawares. She was no more a disturbing element In the forest . than the creatures which lived there, and Win, his ears filled with the rushing song of the wa ter as he fished, heard, nothing of her coming. ;i.S., ', X He had crossed to the west side of the stream ' for his fishing, so that his back was toward her when she first discovered him, She saw a tall, strong figure In blue over alls and blue-shirt and a battered old hat, the overalls tucked Into rubber boots that ended Just be low ; his knee. ; She saw him, and ahe paused, a little: way off, stand ing utterly still, leaning with one hand against a ;' tree, motionless and yet not rigid; beautifully at her ease,v,;r ?;.?:; ?.M'vfr.:!.v'''f - She watched him for a moment; and be lifted a fine trout out of the stream.' It fell flopping by his side, and he' dropped the rod to pin It with his hands. So doing, he turned sldewlse to her, so that she saw his face,' and the shock of straw-colored hair under the hat and his de lighted grin..: .- ...'-. '.'v. But as he pinned the fish, he ut tered an exclamation of pain, and snatched on hand i away -and looked - at It; and Jennys with- the quick . sympathy, which: all women have, - came toward him. She was six paces off-whea.:-be- heard or felt her presence there, and turned and looked up at her; and his eyes widened In quick surprise, and then he said something, laughing. ' And he got up, the trout In one hand, his rod In the other,, and held the flab for her to admire. ; r i "Handsome, ain't her - She asked: "Did he stick the hook Into soar . t- .:. , W1U, was nuzzled. "Not" ..';' ' "I could see you hurt your band, when you grabbed him.".:, " "Oh," he remembered; and he extended the hand which held the fish, turned It so that she could see an Inflamed and swollen finger Joint -i "Got a felon," he said. 'It's sore as umKfa jrf:;-ii"; She took bis band in her two hands, gently, looking at thefelbn. "Granny can cure that" she vsald. "If you'd come oni .home with me." "Sol" he ejaculated, in pleased surprise. -"Can she nowf ; I've heard tell that.Marm Pierce Is a mighty hand at curing ills; but I thought a felon you Just had to take and stand It". --,.? She frowned' In thought, with an amusing affectation of maturity. "I've Just forgot what it is yon do," she confessed. "But Granny, she'll know." And .she urged: "It ain't only ; a little ways through the woods to our place." , i . WlU.sald heartily: "Why, let's go along, then. Like trout does she? Fve a couple here. Toull have to show me. the way." 1 ' :,She nodded; and he fetched bis fish from a moss bed where he had laid them under ferns; and the two young people went together through the woods : back toward Marm Pierce's farm.' There was ho path; but there would be, by and by. It needs only a little tracing and retracing of the same way In wild land . where no foot has trod, to leave a thread of trail along the ground. ' And Jenny ' would come often by this way. In the years that were to follow; would come thus to the brook and wait here on the chance , that Will might find time for the fishing;'' would even cross the brook and climb the steep path beyond, and so go up through the orchard to the Ferrln farm for a glimpse of blinr ' if,: ' But now the way was trackless, and Will followed on her heels. He said : . . "Guess yo're Jenny Pierce. I never see you before." V;v-V, "Xes, I be," she assented; and she added, with a glance over her shoulder: "Nor I never see you." . "I'm Will Ferrln," he explained.: I She stopped , as" though , in sur prise; she turned, and looked at htm, and her eyes were wide with won der. - "" - l- " 1 ; "Will Ferrtnt Ton live right up there?" She pointed. . "Certain." : He was. puzzled by her surprise. But she made i i .sanation. qnly nodded; yet-it ed to her Incredible that he could have been. all her life, so near without her knowing, There was already In her heart' such certainty, and poignant bliss at. being bear him now. When tbey emerged into the back pasture behind Marm Pierce's barn, he came to walk beside her. Jenny, for no reason, smiled. ' Her head was high and proud ; she' brought htm home to old Marm Pierce like a trophy, like a prlzel joj - They found the old woman in the kitchen. rOranny," said the girl "This here la Will Ferrln, and he's got a felon oi; his finger.- I told him yon could cure It for bun." .' . ,; Marm Pierce, brisk, black-eyed, white-haired, with a quick-thrusting tongue, said sharply: "Take It In time and I could. Howdy, , Will Let's see it If you'd had any sense, you'd have come before how!" Jenny cried softly: "Tou already knowed him? ..,. Ton pever told me, Granny I" . ;.- ".I , Marm Pierce looked, at (be girl with swift probing eyes. "Told youl" she echoed; "Why should . . ." She checked the question unasked, reading her answer In the girl's warm color and .soft tones; and she spoke briskly to Will" again. "It's a bad one," ahe said. "I dunno as I can do It a mite of good, but you set down and we'll seel"'," Will obeyed her, and the bid wom an,': with, another wise, glance at Jenny, - turned to ?. the5 cupboard above the aihk. where many of ber stores were kept' d ; rummaged there." v "V" : Jenny said: ; "I couldn't remem ber what lt Is you do, Granny." i "Take a piece of wild : turnip," Marm Pierce explained. "There's some here somewheres." She found "I'll Give You 8ome 8alve to Put . , on It Tomorrow." , .... .- .... , It TH grate It up, and mix It with turpentine, and put It on that finger of yours, W11L It'U UU the pain right away; and it it works the way It's s'posed to, it'll eat the felon out too.

TH give yon some salve to put on It tomorrow," she said. "That'll heal It right up, like as not If It don't, you let me know . , V What followed, Jenny watched without, speaking; or rather , she watched Will, and his eyes that were so deeply blue, and bU straw colored hair rough and , unkempt across his brow, and the' youthful lines of his mouth and chin. Marm LPlerce gave the girl a . sidelong scrutiny, while she affected ..to be busy with ber ministrations; till presently the thing was done, and Will offered them the trout by way of payment ? and departed, and jenny though even then her feet wished, to follow him, to follow him anywhere, : forever, wherever he should go stayed In the door to watch him disappear through the barn.. ' ; --;;,:, T , f . : She turned then to her, grand mother , with ; shining eyes. . ."He looked back and waved, Granny 1" she cried. i , iy.H':, ; "Sh'4 think he would," Marm Pierce assented crisply. "Ungrate ful young imp it he didn't Ton get the yarbs I sent you for, JennyT" ' jenny colored in distress, e "I for-' got,"' she said. i ' X The old woman made a sound like mirth. "No matter," she , decided. "Time enough for them,' another dayV-' ;'vv:5'''':i :.-wik..fr;:; '," She did not then ask any, ques tion, or offer any least Instruction, finding a deep pleasure in watching this unfolding of the girl Into the woman; In watching the birth In Jenny of that teeming ardor, frank and tender and unashamed,, which a girl learns by and by to conceal and to control, but which may be at first as apparent as the blush on, a rose. & fy: :, And during the next two years, while Jenny came to maturity, as a stream rushes to the sea, Marm Pierce still held silent; but she was not blind. She knew that the girl slipped away on every occasion on the chance of seeing Will. Jenny gave the young man that deep and boundless affection of which only a child Is capable; and Marm Pierce watched her tenderly, ready with the sympathy and comfort which, she began to perceive, would be needed by and by. .

Lilliputian Masterpieces : ; Created by Man in All Ages In air countries and in all ages1 there have been those possessed of a genius for creating Lilliputian mas terpieces, says Everyman, London. . In the ; Sixteenth century Queen Elizabeth was the recipient of one such masterpiece ; a golden chain composed of 60 links and so .minute that it was practically invisible un less placed against a black ground To demonstrate its 'lightness tbe maker wound It around the body of a flv. which flew off unembarrassed The man who made this tiny chain was by trade a blacksmith. The smooth r shapeliness of a grain of corn has tempted the skill of several men. A late President of the French Academy of Science once received a grain of corn on which one of his pupils bad written a sentence of no. less than two hun dred and twenty-one words. Still more extraordinary Was the feat performed by a Spaniard named Faba, This man built a carriage ex actly the size of a grain of corn. Ex amined under a strong magnifying glass It was possible tr see tbe per fect detail of the Interior decoration. An equally skilful piece of work was performed by a Swede who carved a dozen Ivory plates so small in diameter and so thin that they fit ted Inside a pepper-berry. This berry, duly ' ornamented and In scribed, was given to Pope Plus V. When It is borne in mind Just how clumsy were the tools of the Middle Ages it Is all the more surprising that feats of this kind were com paratively common In those days. The old monks were particularly skilful In this way. It was a Polish monk who did the tour de force of transcribing tbe whole of the Iliad on a strip of parchment which, when rolled up, could be placed Inside a walnut shell; and one of the prized possessions of the library of the Louvaln university Is a 15th-century Book of Hours, beautifully illumi nated, smaller than a pocket watch. Smaller still, and of later date, are some of the pocket dictionaries to be found In German collections. A post age stamp stuck on the cover of some of these miniature volumes would completely hide them. Yet un der a magnifying glass they can be read with ease. Less futile and still more astound ing are the chefs de'oeuvre of the watchmaker's art. In spite of the high precision required In making the parts and the intricacy of the assemblage, there are on the market watches which keep good time and are so small that they can be set in a ring the size of a very small sig net. There are cameras, too, small enough to be sewn Jnside the lining of a coat without making a notice able bulge, the projecting lens look ing like a small button. Combining the arts of the cameo cutter and the miniature painter, untrained Russian and Czechoslo vaklan peasants produce marvels of dexterity and patience In the form of tiny wooden figures, about half the size of a small lead soldier. These figures, carved In every con ceivable attitude and painted In natural colors, are so extraordinarily life-like that In an enlarged photo graph they appear to be living crea tures. The Chinese also excel In the art of miniature carving, but their work is far from attaining the per fection of the Slavs. This passion for the diminutive Is not confined exclusively to inani mate objects. The- Japanese garden, with Its fir trees no taller than a blade of grass. Is a well-known ex ample of Lilliputian horticulture. Some years ago this penchant for small things led to the breeding of dwnrf dogs until the evolution of the Griffon about the size of a rat Still smaller, and having a delicate beauty all Its own, Is the master piece of dwarf breeding the But terfly dog.

Women Form Majority of Turkey's Population Women form the majority of Tur key's population; they exceed men by not less than 7.9 per cent, accord ing to official statistics. In rural districts the percentage of women Is even much higher, as In most of the larger cities the male element prevails. Tbe population of Istanbul with 709,000 inhabitants, against 1,100, 000 under Ottoman empire, Includes 138,000 married couples, while 333, 000 persons are unmarried. There are 19,000 widowers, against 72,000 widows. The number of marriages has Increased steadily from 1927, when 2,895 were registered, to 1932 with 4,813 marriages. Tbe majority of the brides were between nineteen and twenty-four years old, while men mostly married between thirty and thirty-four.
