And the little girl dreamed such n wondrous dream. Just as so many little girls have dreamed so many times before She had diamonds and pearls afid her clothes were of satin and lace and ermine, and she was curtseying to klngh and emperors and queens and empresses, and in the end there came alone a fnlt hnml. some prince who loved her very dearly, and they were married in a great cathedral and lived happily ever j aft "Carrlo-ee!

So the little girl woke up with a start The setting sun was slanting i right at her from under the lowest branches of the trees.

How the elderly millionaire paid uiun iu lilt- urauimil giri or iweniytwo is still well remembered in Waltham. Rut it took him two years to win her hand, and in 1892 the pair were quietly married in the church of Carrie Foster's girlhood?the old First parish. It was a simple ceremony because her father had died not long before. doe Stickney thought nothing too good for his beautiful bride as the years sped on and he found himself growing, richer and richer. He bought a splendid mansion in New York. There Bhe entertained elaborately. Summers found them in the White mountains or in Kuropo, but always was there time for a little stopover in Walt ham to see the friends of bygone days. Left Young and Rich Widow. It all ended in 1903, at least for a time, when Joseph Stickney, richer than ever, breathed his last. Beyond a few legacies to relatives and charity, his entire estate went undeservedly to his beautiful wife, now in the prime of her wondrous beauty, a leader of New York society, but never forgetting the little town of Waltham, where she was born, and the good people who dwelt there. The millionaire had buildcd well. Today the fortune he left his wife Is figured at close to $10,000,000. She ran nansry nor nearest wish by merely turning over her hand. In assuagement of her grief, which was deep and abiding, the widow went abroad with her little daughter. As time passed and her mourning grew lighter she went about a bit. I,ondon, ever alert to the possibilities of clever American women with fortunes, at once took to Mrs. Stlckney. She was bidden everywhere. All portals were thrown open when she was formally presented to the king and queen? her social position In England was thus firmly established forevermore. She rented a house in Mayfair and began to entertain. And her reputation for taateful and admirable gowning kept pace with her social successes. "Rest dressed woman In Europe." was her easily won reputation. Her attire was tbe subject of tele W FRENCH PRINCESS I graph dispatches wherever she ap! peared at tho more important funci tions?Ascot, the royal bail or some , smart duchess'.

PARROT (STRAINED TO SCARECROWS Shouts and Flies at Feathered Grain Thieves. JUMPS AFTER THEM Poll Entered Into the Spirit of the Undertaking in a Way That Exceeded All Expectations?Has Hatred for Crow Family. Harpswell Center. Me.?Here's a ! chance for bird store owners to make a small fortune. Let them learn a leRson from the experience of Aaron Doughty, a farmer of Lower Casco Bay. Then they can advertise to the farmers a sure solution of the old problem?how to keep the crows out of the corn field. Doughty has the solution. The farmers in his section get big prices for their product and are obliged to wage continual warfare against the crows. The latter are unusually bold tills year and seem tc have little fear of dead members ol their kind swung from bean poles 01 from other scarecrows of time-hon ored type. Driven to desperate measures. Mr. Doughty bought a parrot and for a month devoted himself to teaching the bird to chase crows away from his cornfields. Every time he saw a crow he would start running toward it. waving his arms and loudly shouting "fJet out! Get out!" Poll was an Interested observer and In no time was screeching "Get out! Get out!" When the bird had learned that the farm was his home, Mr. Doughty experimented in giving Poll his liberty when he chased crows. As lie ! hoped, the imitative parrot flew after j nun raucousiy crying us warning. It went even further. Mr. Doughty had not expected the bird would do anything but fly toward PI III I lllllllllllllllllllllll IllPftfflBBBffH: Kept After the Retreating Crows. the field. thus frightening the crows ! away with his mysterious human sounding words. Rut Poll entered Into the spirit of the thing in a way j that exceeded all expectations. Ho not only Hew to the corn Held, but kept right on after the retreating crows, chasing them somotlines a quarter of a mile before returning to the cage. Poll developed a particular hatred for the crow family. One of Poll's favorite tricks is to walk slowly through the grass until nearly in the midst of a flock. Poll certainly gives the crows a shock when he jumps into the air after them, his bright green plumage shining in the sun, shrilly shrieking "Get out! Get out!" The crows are deserting Mr. Doughty's fields for those of other farmers where the worst they have to contend with is some effigy of a tramp they know by instinct to be harmless, or, in rare instances, a barefoot country boy with a rusty shotgun. , Meantime farmers from near and far are flocking to the Doughty farm to watch Poll do its stunt. Died Trying to Save Two. Fort Worth, Tex.?John Moon, thirty-Jive years old and the father of five children, sacrificed hia life ? to save two girls from drowning. Mrs. Klsie Moon, his sister-in-law. fifteen years old, a bride of two weeks, also lost her life, being one of the two he attempted to save. Moon attempted to drag the girls ashore and in their excitement they grabbed hlra around the neck and all went down. Stuck In Airahaft. New York.?Frederick Ford, a stowaway, stuck in the airahaft on the liner Majestic. The boiler room, as a result, got so hot that a stoker went crary with the heat and committed suicide.

Plnevlew, Va.?Mrs. Cora Brooks. v ot this town, writes as follows: "I suffered for about three years with womanly trouble, and was getting worse and worse all the time. I had two good doctors and I was sent to two good hospitals to be operated on, but no operating was done. All this cost me lots of money, and I was no better off than before I started.
