The Draft Horse.
The breeding of draft horses
has come to be a very porH table
adjunct to diversified farming,
and at no time during the last
fifteeu or twenty years has the
price been higher for good
draft and heavy farm horses.
While the automobile may, to a
certain extent, have replaced
the horse for city delivery, still
the bulk of the farm work is
done with horses and prices
for good stook are as high or
higher than ever. There is not
the demand for medium quali
ty and light-weight horses th.-it
there used to be, but good,
smooth draft and heavy farm
horses are bringing good prices.
There is little reason why the
farmer should not continue to
raise horses of this kind, since
brood-mares—and stallions, too,
for that matter—will produce
stronger and belter colts for
having been kept steadily at
work on the farui.
Oa the home farm we have
raised some of the cleanest,
be an or
ires right along. There are
certain conditions under which
it does not seem to be practical
to put the breeding stock into
harness, but on many farms
these conditions are not met
Where a farmer must rely al
most wholly on hired help to
drive his teams, it may not be
practicable to put pure bred
stock into harness. If the farm
boy hows an interest in horses,
raise some good drafters. Put
a good harness on them, and
teil the boy this is his team to
work, and there will be no quer
tion about the care they will
get. You will lind the boy,

Lucille's
Mistake
By Adele Mendel
'•How's Arthur?" asked Marcia.
"Finer than ever," answered Lucille,
"but he travels so much that I feel
like a telephone operator, saying Hello
and Goodby to him so often."
"How long will he be in town now?"
"Arthur is away at present and
doesn't expect to return for a week."
"Are you sure?"
"What do you infer, Marcia?"
"Only that I thought I saw him at
the theater last night"
"Impossible. I had a letter yester
day."
"Maybe be returned since."
"Not without my knowledge."
"Well, the girl he was with—"
"Don't be idiotic," Interrupted Lu
cille indignantly, "Arthur Isn't taking
other girls out."
"'Lucille, I could swear on my bull
dog's life that it was Arthur."
"You're too persistent. Didn't I men
tion Arthur was away?"
"What are you girls arguing about?"
broke in Janet.
"About Lucille's future husband,"
commenced Marcia.
"Oh, I saw Arthur down town this
morning, he deliberately walked by
without even bowing."
"It wasn't Arthur," contradicted Lu
cille, vehemenfly. "I'm going home to
write to him now."
"Poor Lucille," sal'l \I ircia. "Sup
pose Arthur was deceiving her It's
a great risk to marry a traveling man.
I felt duty bound to tf 11 her."
"People rarely thank you l'or'telling
them unpleasant truths."
"Why, she was as cross as two
stick, and never even said goodby."
Upon reaching home Lucille found a
12-page letter from Arthur in which
he wrote. "Don't know my next des

"How strange, but It is merely a co
incidence," thought Lucille.
"Lucille," called her younger sis
ter, "Arthur just drove by in a cab
and did not even look up!"
Lucille rushed to the window, and
could only catch a glimpse of the cab,
but the figure seated next to a lady
looked strangely like Arthur.
"Saw Arthur at the ball game this
afternoon," said Lucille's brother, "but
didn't have a chance to speak with
him."
"Yes, and 1 caught a glimpse of him
a the restaurant late last night, drink
ing high balls," said her brother's
chum. "He's some sport."
"It's incomprehensible," confided
Lucille to her sister. "I can't endure
this strain much longer. To think Ar

"A young man wMrfiee to see you."
announced the maid
"Oh, Arthur," cried Lucille Joyfully
as she entered the dimly lighted li
brary, giving him one long, fervent
kiss. 'Such tales as they have been
telling about you and 1 nearly be
lieved them. Have you been in the
City? You didn't take a girl to thea

balls? You didn't forget your Lu

"Have you tost your voice? Why
don't you answer?"
"I'm not Arthur," stammered the
young man. "I'm his twin brother.
Don't be so embarrassed. 1 rather like
your sisterly welcome."
"Forget it, please," said Lucille. "Ar

"Well, 1 wish 1 was Arthur. I prom
ised him I would call on you when in
town, but this Is the first opportunity

"To think I doubted Arthur," said
Lucille, after her visitor had depart
ed. "But I fancy if any one had seen
me kiss and hug an absolute stranger,
they would have doubted me, too."

Cousin Mack
Mrs. Gregg, who cultivated a breezy,
off-hand manner, had talked, from the
day of her arrival at her sister's home,
of the necessity of her calling upon
her husband's cousin. Collie Mack.
So she, with a party of four or Ave
of her relatives in various degrees,
turned the headlights of their auto
mobile toward the exclusive village,
or suburb, In which she felt convinced
she would find Collie Mack.
She was still in the seventh heaven
of self-righteousness when she was
rudely recalled by the mundane curi
osity of the driver, who requested the
street and number of her cousin.
"Oh," she replied, airily, "It's with
some doctor, on Oak avenue, about
two blocks from the car line." Then
she settled back to her fancies once
more.
The driver scowled and turned the
car around. He drove slowly up and
down Oak avenue, scanning tne bouses
on both Bides of the street within a
radius of two blocks of every car track,
but to no effect. Finally be gave it up.
"Well, it ain't here," be remarked
witheringly.
"Why, perhaps It Isn't," genially re
sponded Mrs. Gregg. "I forgot that it
must have been fifteen or twenty
years ago that he lived here Oh,
and besides, it was his sister who
lived with the doctor, and she was a
trained nurse, so it might have been
that she just had a case there. I don't
suppose Collie Mack lived there at all.
Wasn't that funny?"
She thought a moment. "Haven't
you people some idea of where to
look?" she asked, glancing about ex
pectantly.
might look in the city direc
tory," volunteered her sister.
So the whole party got out at the
nearest drug store and pored over the
list of Macks.
"There's no Collie Mack here, that's
Bure," asserted a mutineer.
"Oh, but that's just a nickname," ex
plained Mrs. Gregg. "1 really don't
know just what his name Is. It be
gins with or H, or perhaps it was
W. I can't remember."
"Oh, what's the use, anyway?" a
nephew exclaimed disgustedly. "You
don't know him and he doesn't know
you, and wbat'U you miss if you don't
see him?"
Mrs. Gregg looked at him reproach
fully and said nothing
"Here it is," cried her brothfer-ln
law, excitedly. "Here's Martin Henry
Worthington Mack! That's all the
Initials They probably called him
Collie because he'd take a whole col
umn."
They excitedly viewed the name In
turn. Mrs. Gregg smiled in conscious
superiority. "Ves, oi course, I hat's It,''
she exclaimed. "My mind rarely rails
to recall nimcs."
So they climbed back' into the car
nnrl broke tile spred regulations get
ting to the address tor lear Collie
Mack might get away.
At the door Mrs. Gregg took the
load. She shook hands with the yoting
girl who opened the door, exclaiming
delightedfy: "Well, well! I'm Mrs.
Gregg, and these are my sisters and
my brother-in-law and my baby and a
nephew. Is your father at home?"
Without waiting for a reply from the
stunned girl, she made for the stairs,
followed by her train of relatives.
"I never dreamed that he was mar
ried!" she exclaimed to the little wom
an, who In a dazed way offered them
chairs "And this big girl is your
daughter! Well, well!" And she smiled
with a friendly warmth which brought
no response from the hostess.
Suddenly the door opened and a
large Scotchman stood In ft a moment
while he viewed his callers.
"I'm so glad 10 know you!" ex
claimed Mrs. Gregg a? she hastened to
greet l.im. And before she knew it
s-iic gnvo him a wprm, cousiniv kiss
"?.'y h:v:hnnd. Mr. (Jreprs. lias spo'cen
ro iruch ol vnu i!int i-inr.w you as
well as ii 1 had always known you
personally," declared Mrs. Gregg.
"Why didn't you let us know tbat you
were married? Oh, pardon me 1 for
got to Introduce you." And she turned
to beam on her own party.
The host wore a pained and startled
expression, but he bowed gravely. Mrs.
Mack seemed to have been turned to
stone
"How nice it Is to meet relatives!
Do sit down by me here and let us
talk over old times!" Mrs Gregg
smiled bewltchingly up at the Scotch
man. You know Catherine stayed
v.ith us for some months, and 1 grew
to think so much of her. It was on
account of her that I was simply wild
to meet you. Where Is she now?"
The face of the Scotchman was full
of amazement. Mrs. Mack's eyes were
fastened upon her husband in horror
Suddenly Mrs. Gregg's soaring spir
its came down to earth. She looked
searchlngly at her new cousin. She
also observed the wife's wordless ac
cusations.
"Why—why—" she began, "isn't
Catherine your sister? Don't you re
member Dr. Gregg? I—l think we've
made some mistake." Then she looked
reproachfully at her brother-in-law.
"I'm sorry to have troubled you," she
added, "and I believe we'd better go
now."
Slie arose and led a dignified re
treat. Mrs. Mack leaned over the rail
ing and gaud down suspiciously as
her husband opened the door for the
visitors.'
