had purchased such an elegant new
phaeton we might have Jxn x
ensed for entertaining hoDea of en-
joying an airing in it; but thofecon

than, one of us. ' v "And-'X. hara just

saucy' Linda Gray." "you
know you. are speaking of an: im
possibility' now." We will make
you a present of your wedding
dress If you succeed."
"And if I fail, I will give yon
each a pair of white kids to wear
to my wedding." , Bell answered,
gayly; and Lawyer. Brown's. par
lors were soon vacated by the merry
party that had , been . spending the
afteruoon with his only daughter.
"How could I have been so fool
ish!"' thought impulsive Bell, as
she stood in the door, looking down
the quiet street. He cares noth
ing for me now, and will think me
more childish than ever when he
hears of this."
But she thought how he had
passed that afternoon without even
glancing up at the window where
she had stood, hoping at least to
receive .ai bow. .And then he
raised his hat a moment afterward
to old Mrs. Lee.
She was quite angry, new, as she
thought of his indifference, and as
the new phaeton came slowly down
the street again she went quickly
down the marble steps, and Dr.
Lester, gazing more earnestly than
he knew at the dark bine dress and
brown curls fluttering in the wind,
drew up before the door.
."Doctor." she said, looking up
in the grave, handsome face, 'are
you goMag over the river tonight t"
The gentleman bowed and looked
calmly down on the sweet face that
flushed so. brightly as she prof
fered her request. , : ' t'.l,
r- "There is a lady at Uncle Will's
that I want to come over to-night.
Will you stop and bring her with
you!" ' .
"Certainly! Is your cold any
better ! Yon must keep ont of the
night air, or I would not answer
for the consequences."
Bell tried to look indifferent, but
the brown, eyes filled, with tears
and her; cheeks burned ; hotly, as
she thought that he would have
asked the same question of all the
old women in the town. She closed
the door with a little more force
thau was necessary, and, donning
her cloak and a large- hood, was
soon walking briskly in the direc
tion of the uncle's where she had
requested Dr. Lester to call for her
friend; -
. It was quite dark when the doc
tor arrived and gave the bell an
impatient pull, and after what
seemed an age a middle aged lady
answered it. . : -
"Is Miss Brown's friend here V
he asked, taking the hand that was
quickly extended. .. . . .. ...
The lady's face flushed, but she
answered quietly in the affirma
tive.' ' ... .-. .. . - -
A slight - figure soon appeared
muffled in cloak and hood, and in
a. hoarse voice bade the gentleman
good evening. " . . ' '
llorace bowed in return, ana
looked curiously down at the little
figure. ,
"Are yon Miss. Brown s frienar
he asked, not knowing what else
to say. . . .
"Yes, the best jriend sae ever
had," came hoarsely from under
the hood. . " '
"You seem to have a cold," said
Horace, still, standing, in the door
playing Jwitfi a whip,:, while his
eyes rested on a long . Drown cuu
that had escaped from tne nideous
hood. "I would advise you. to be
careful and keep out of the night
air as much ns possible.' .
"IToivn nnt nt t.hA liltrht Air. in

Bell's lip curled scornfully as
she received lie advice given to
the stranger, as it had been given
to her, a few hours before.
Dr. Lester assisted ner down tne
steps, . and Belle, with: a- trium
phant smile, was assisted Into tne
carriage, tint tne sinneaieu away,
and she could have cried with an
eer and mortification as she found
herself m an old buggy tnat Horace
had u-jed until lately, and his fa
ther had used before him.
As they rode along the doctor s
thoughts were wandering from his
quiet companion to the brown
haired girl who had looked np so
shyly when she asked a favor that
afternoon. ;:. f
He had quite forgotten the lady
by his side, when a small . hand
was placed on his arm and a sweet
voice said :
"Dr. Lester, I am so sorry that
I have deceived yon,"

Many of our farmers have ob
served in the past few years that
crops which they formerly culti
vated with success could no longer
be grown., They tilled and fertil
ized their fields with their usual
care, but the plants withered and
died from so apparent cause.. A
careful investigation of the evil
by the Department of Agriculture
. a a
nas snown tnat tne sou in many
regions ol tne united States, de
voted to the culti ration of special
crops, is infected with several
most deadly varieties of parasitic
fungi. The experiments and re
searches of the department have
been exhaustively described b
Dr. Erwin Smith in a paper whic
ho read before the Botanical Sec
tion of the American Association
for the Advancement of Science.
Dr. Smith's investigations sho
that soil fungi have ravaged the
fields of. the -. watermelon re
gion, the cotton section, the cab
bage district of New York State,
and tbe tonsato lands of Florida.
To such an extent has the melon

Southern States that watermelon

parts of South Carolina, Virginia
and Mississippi the -industry has

the finest cotton-producing dig
tricts in the . world (the "Sea Is
land" belt; extending from South
Carolina to Georgia) many ctow-
ers have been compelled to abondon
their devastated fields. . The cal
bage growers of ) New York and
the tomato farmers of Flordia
have suffered similarly.
That the evu is primarily due
to soil parasites or fungi is fully
S roved by Dr. Smith's experiments,
erely by burying the fungus in
the earth the characteristic signs
of contamination are obtained in
the plant. ; Microscopic examina
tions show that the parasite com
pletely fills the water-ducts of the
stem. The leaves wither; and, if
the weather be dry, the plant never
recovers, iven it tne weather be
moist, the plants soon droop un

In his attempts to cross-iuocnlate

has been nssuccestiftl. Morphol
ogically the parasites are appar
ently similar; physiologica'ly they
eeem altogether different from one
another.
The farmer natnraliy asks:
What is the remedy for this soil -infection?
Unfortunately no an
swer can be given. The malady
is of such recent discovery, and so
little is known of the f ungi that,
for the time being, only precau
tionarv measures can be recom
mended. The usual methods of
curing vegetable diseases are ut
terly infective. . A field once at
tacked by a particular parasite can

plants subject to contamination

Smith suggests, the disease may

E'.ains have been almost impassa-

ing and the campaign against
Aguinaldo was therefore practi
cally suspended for six months.
Under tne best condition the
march and camp in these steaming
lowlands are trying to men unac
customed to u tropical climate.
Last month - the . monsoon
changed. The southern winds
that for six months had brought
a continuous downpour veered to
the north and the season ol the po
lar monsoon set in. This period
of change is the dreaded time of
typhoons and some weeks elapse
before the season o cooler and
comparatively clear weather be
gins; In these last days of the
rainr season our troops, under
- - -
Ueneral8 Lawton, MacArthur.
Young and Wheat on have been
pushing on over th plains of
Luzon, making steady prorress
in spite of mud and rain, beginning
the campaign thus early in order
to catch Aguinaldo if possible in
his northern haunts or at least to
prevent him from returning south.
This northern movement has
brought our forces to the north
edge of the rice plains bounded by
high hills and a part of the cavalry
has already crossed the hill ranges
and descended into tbe valley of
the Cagayan, the largest river of
Luzon. Thus our advance guard
has left the region of nee and en
tered the best tobacco-growing
area of the Philippines. They
htve fought, hitherto, in one of
the most populous parts of the
archipelago, where the density ol
population is as high as 200 to the
square mile. They have now en
tered a valley which, lor a hun
tired miles north of their present
position, has not more than fitly
inhabitants to the square mile.
They have reached a river that is
navigated in light draught boats
for two hundred miles to its mouth
at the north end of the island. In
other words, they have attained
part of the island, extending about
two hundred miles north and
south, wbere an all water route is
the means of communication with
Manila. All tbe settlement along
tbe Cagayan are shipping points
for the tobacco that is collected at
the port of Aparri and transferred
tox-oastwino vessels that take it to
Manila. If we were entering upon
a lng campaign in north Luzon,
which seems improbable, the Cag
ayan would be a great importance
or the transportation ol military
supplies, a difficult matter thus
ar at all points away from the
railroad.
It remains to bo seen whether
Airuinaldo can elude our troops
by skulking in the mountains that
border the Cagayan alley on the
east and west It does not seem
likely that he could maintain any
considerable force atnoug these

destitute of population and food

He introduced himself to me as
Mr. Horn beck, and invited me to
take ft little ride about town with
him. He said I reminded him of
a son of his who had died wot long
ago; and as he told me this, -be
turned aside his head to hide a
tear. . . .-.- - .. . i
As we rode along Mr. Hornbeck
talked but little, and that in a
quiet, musing sort of way. At
length he said: .
''You want to steer clear of them
red estate fellers, my boy. They'll
talk yon blind, deaf and Lame -tell
you auy thing to make sale.'l
I expressed my horror at such
conduct.
"Sleek lookin' fellows," mused
Mr. Hornbeck, "sleek t ping bats,
mostly; oTinonda, good clothes.
Say, they all of 'emit Just do any
thing to -make a deal. 1 Pshaw!
It just disgusts me.'
I was delighted to find how free
my mend was Irons all "boom
talk" and how kindly he was in
his advice tome. We rode on far
ther out and at last panned at the
edge of ft 'large and fertile field,
some miles out from the town.
Well, it's funny about this
country," said Mr. Hornbeck, as
he sat in his buggy and looked
about us at the pleasant rural land
scape. - .... . . i
1 asked lum to explain.
"Why,' said he, smiling, "this
whole country here covers mines of
countless wealth.'1 - . --!
"Ofwhatf I asked.
"Why, of salt, for one thing.
There's a vein of solid salt right
under where we're standing, 023
feet thick, only abont 450 feet
down. That's the derrick to the
well, right over here.- But pshaw
salt don't make ft city, my boy.
Some go wild over It. 1 don't. "
"Yes,"- said Mr. Uornbeeir,
"there's the foundations of three
new packing houses -right over
there. Here's the artesian well,
off to the left. They re just go
ing to pump the brine light out
among the pork barrels, yon see.
Right here the smoke of factories
will resouad to the .busy hum of

(The silver tongue was begin
ning to show itself a little. Bnt I
didn't inspect that.)
"But but, hasno advan

Oh, bices yon my boy, 1 yes,'
said Silver-tengne (for so let ns

"Bless yon, yes. This is ail an ad

"My UodI man!' I cried Ln r.tr-

"Ill see w hat can be done to fix

to me looking around him care
folly over the cornfield.
"I've took a sort of notion to
you, somehow, snd now 111 tell

eft on the plot; too. It's been

"How are the tern? I asked.
"Oh, third down asd balance
six-anxl nine. "' """.' "
' I sat down and crushed my head
between my hands bitterly. I was
thinking how likely it was that
this chance would be taken up be
fore we could get back to town
and draw up the papers. At that
a bright thought track me.
"You are authorized to sell this
property T" I said, and SUrer
tongue said he was.
"Can yon take ft deposit on this
trade! I asked.
"Why certainly,- said he.
"Bat I mean now. right here,
right cowf I said, insistently.
"Well, von are the keenest set
f ourg fellow ever I did see,"
sighed Silver-tongue; "but still,
to accommodate you, why, 111
strain business relations a little
and fix yon solid right here at
once."
And then he went back to the
buggy and drew from under the
seat a case of real estate instru
ments and "fixed me solid." right
there. I should say he did!
When we got back to town that
evening we completed the remain
iog preliminaries. And then I
wrote home to my parents and
told them that my long struggles
with fortuno were at last practi
cally at an end; that I had proved
the faculty of all their fears for
me, and had acquired wealth.
I left the town soon after this.
The last man I saw was Silver-
tongue, and he shook toe warmly
by tbe hand, promised to sell my
lots forme when they reached 75
a foot. I departed feeling in my
heart for him that warm gratitude
which it is so pleasing to know in
these degenerate days.
I would rather not vrite much
farther, as this U not a personal
memoir for -twysetf . rnl - to
only original, genuine SiUer
tongue himself. Beaidea, there
are some things too sad to monkey
with. I sometimes, with mourn
ful satisfaction, take my friends
out to hunt jack-rabbits on my
block of lots. We are never trou
bled try tbe sound of the whirring
wheels of commerce.
