This was not the reason, at least the sole reason, why she kept him dan gling. The main one was-to put it figuratively-be was a ripe pear hang ing from a tree and there was another girl under the tree waiting for him to drop. He didn't know that she knew about this other girl, but he did know he wished to drop into the other girl's mouth. He was committed to the one he was talking to and trying to have her shake the tree while the other girl stood ready to catch him when he fell. "I tell you what we'll do," he said. "I'm tired of this business. I can't sleep nights. Sometimes I think you are going to make me happy, and some times I think you aren't. If I knew you wouldn't have me I'd try to for get you.

He was not only an expert at the game of euchre, but an expert at deal ing the cards. He could stack them, too, without half trying. He threw the cejds for the deal and won It. Dealing. he turned up a nine spot. She passed, and he turned it down. She made it spades and won two points. He heaved a sigh from down in his stomach. She dealt and turned a knave. He passed. She took it up and won another two points. He groaned. The deal being his, he turn ed a *n spot, took it up and lost the gam. "What did you take it up on that band for?" abe asked. "You had only two trumps, an ace and a queen, with nothing back." He looked a trifle confused. "You wre so near out," he explained, "that I thought I'd better plunge." bhe said nothing, but knit her brows, then drew down the corners of her mouth. Tbe second game he won. He didn't intend to win it, but she sent him for the last box of candy be had sent her, and while he was out she stacked the cards, dealing him a hand with five trumps In it, tinclding two bowers and an ace.

One day ten years ago in the month of April a stranger who gave his name as William Hobson appeared in the vii lage of Grafton in a certain middle state and engaged quarters at the inn for several months in advance. This wuas something never heard of before and created quite a sensation. Then the report went around that Mr. IIob son intended to build and operate a large woolen mill there, and that was sensation No. 2. Then a county consta ble had his suspicion aroused that the stranger was a fugitive from justice. and that was sensation No. 3. The fourth was not far away. Mr. Hobson was a man of middle age. He was quiet and kept to him self. With all the pumping they could do the villagers could find out very lit tle about him. The most that could be extracted from him was that he had made an important medical discovery and would furnish particulars later on. On the 1st of May. after looking around a bit. Mr. Hobson leased ten acres of land of a farmer near the town, and the fourth sensation came when it was known he intended to raise sunflowers. No human being in that county had ever beard of any one growing more than a hundred head. and here were to be thousands and thousands of them! What could be done with them? How did they fit into a medical discovery? Men and teams were hired, the ground prepared, and sunflower seeds were brought in and planted. The en terprise was discussed in hundreds of homes and given liberal space in the county papers, but Mr. Hobson would not interview. His reply was "wait." When the stalks were knee high that field was good to see. It was a novelty that drew. Just about that time almost every person in the county received a circu lar through the mails. It was about the new medical discovery, and the cat was out of the bag at last Sunflower tea would speedily Cure indigestion. Consumption in its first stages. Cancers and tumors If not too far advanced. Neuralgia and shenmatism. Fevers rising from biliousness. Clear the system of malaria. Strengthen the weak and make the strong stronger. For six weeks the sunflower.crusade went on. Mr. Hobson did not seem greatly interested. So far as could be ascertained, be was not the man put tino out the advertising, nor did he ever say in so many words that sun flower tea would cure a complaint of any kind. It was not known till the sunflowers began to turn their yellow fees to the morning sun and hang their heads in modest what be pro posed to do with the crop Then indi viduals began to come to speak for sead It was so much seed for 50 ceats and no smaller orders taken. Mr. Hobson hatd400 orders booked and was still writing down names when a merchant of the town went to a money leader and said: "See here, Carter, there's a chance to make $1,000 right under our noses, and we are sitting around like bmps on a "What is tt? "This part of the state has gone cra q about sunflower tea. That man Hobson is rakinag in the money as fast as he can reach out his arm. It's a quarter a head for snowers, but the mob Is paying the price and glad to et 'em." "But Hobsom has got the only sun lowers for a hundred mile around." "All the better or us i we buy him oat and cerer the supply. Why not raise the prie to 50 cents a bhedd" "But is the tea any good?" persted the cntioas capitalist. "Hobsoun has got more than 100 un sellcted testimonals. Deacon Good boy says it cred him of kidney trou de after he had sufered for fifteen years. Let's b Hobaon out." Only one thing on the face of this earth made Mr. Hobson willng to listen to a ofer. He had trouble with his heart, and sufower tea w-ould mnot cure it.
