J; GEORGE ELMER COBB $
(Copyright, 1915, by W. O. Chapman.)
The "magnet city" had attracted
Joel llenson with Its bright lights and
glowing fascinations, only to cast him
away when his little store of money
was gone. He was too proud to lot
his friends back in the little country
village he had left?and for which he

pocketbook, half a tiny sample receptacle.
It lay In a heap of rubbish. He
picked It up.
"Oh!"
The aspiration was marveling, yet
ecstatic. As he opened one side of
the case there flashed up at him a
dozen rare gems, radiant diamonds,
- opaline pearls in rich heavy gold settings.
Breathlessly Joel opened the |
> opposite section, to draw out a folded
5 banknote?
One thousand dollars!
His fingers tingled. Idke Cinderella
touched by the fairy wand, he
seemed suddenly to be arrayed in
rich raiment, to bo riding in a hand\
some touring car, and on his way to
tho most exclusive restaurant in the
city, able to rival a nabob,
y Then suddenly Joel thrust the
tempting case out of sight into an Inside
pocket of his ragged coat. He
was trembling all over, the cold perspiration
stood in icy drops on his
forehead. The intense excitement of I
the moment made his steps unsteady
as he hurried from the spot.
"Not mine, so It's no breakfast*"
I, ho breathed, a little hysterical catch
. In his voice. "What shall I do?"
Pj lie was human, he was hungry, he
felt that to restore this wealth to its
legitimate owner deserved some reft
ward, for, ah! how he needed it. He
- wandered about all that morning,
r thinking?thinking. To give it up to
the police would be to deliver up his
opulent And and receive not even a
"thank you." Half a dozen times he
- wandered by Uie alley and lingered
o about it, wondered if the owner of
[J the case might not show up, which he
u finally determined was fanciful and
,, ridiculous.
Towards nightfall a thought came j
to him. About a week previous, in |
his nighthawk wanderings, he was at- I
traded by a nig fire, lie had helped
l' rescue an ambitious reporter who
p had climbed a fire escape. The young
man had struck up a speaking acquaintance
with Joel. Once he had
invited Joel to a cafe supper with
'? him. Joel knew where he worked.
0 lie sought him out.
"You'll do something for me, I
know," he told the scribe. "Find out
if the police have any record of a

his condition. Practically, he had bocome
a tramp.
Poor clothes shut him out from de
cent employment. Poor food began
to Bliow its effects. Just off a quiet
street, where a paved alley held a
broad-topped ash bin, wearied and
discouraged, he had stretched out to
try and forget hunger In sleep.
Once he awoke. It was at the echo
of a cry for help. In his sodden slumber,
however, he treated It as part of
his dream, and never opened his eyes.
Early daylight aroused him. No one
was astir but himself, it seemed. He
yawned, rubbed his eyes and mechanically
glanced about him.
"Hello!" he ejaculated, and went
over to where a man's hat lay. Then
he noticed that its top was stove in,
and near it was a piece of lead pipe.
He shivered and turned to hurry
away. The Implication was irresistible:
footpadB, the victim slugged, to
wander away later on, hatless and
dazed.
"If the police happened on me they
would link me up with the business,"
meditated Joel, and started briskly
to make clear of his suspicious environment.
"Hello!" he uttered a second time,
and now his eyes snapped eagerly and
hope succeeded fear.
For a few feet away from the hat
lay a Hat, bulky case. It was half
w^ll. say a thousand k
wfelt, ?ay tome diamond and peart N
rings and brooches, will you?"
"Hi, now!" hallod the reporter,
pricking up hta ears; "that has tho
flavor of a scoop." I
"If It leads to thai, you'll get t* e
first, believe me," pledged Joel. t
For two consecutive evenings Joel visited
his friend, to learn that no ?
such event as that he described had /
been reported to the police. j
Not for a moment had the thought |
of appropriating the money and Jew- ;
elry come to Joel's mind. Being honest.
he kept his own coynsel, but y.
went into a bank one day and deposited
the one thousand dollars in his
own name. He made a small package E
of the Jewelry and tied it in a hand Oierchie*,
and secured this by a string o
across his chest. That week he got
work and earned five dollars, and
twice he guardedly advertised his
And?no result.
Many a time the possession of un- d
claimed wealth became a burden, t1
nearly a temptation. Then Joel ac- tl
cepted his strange responsibility as a n
matter of course. n
"When I get a little money ahead, I v
will see a lawyer, and learn the hon- n
est limit I must go to as a full duty v
to Beok to locate the owner of the *
money md the Jewelry," he decided.
"If he cannot be found, surely I have t
some claim in the matter." *
Hut Joel did not accumulate the t
money necessary to start this plan in P
operation. A fall temporarily crippled "
one limb. He fell ill and became unfit r
for work. Finally he determined to n
return homo, a veritable prodigal son. I1
It was better to acknowledge defeat,
however, after all lii3 high hopes and o
bouts. Besides that, his relatives in *
tho home village cared little for him. ^
Joel made his way from the city ^
slowly, painfully. At a town fifty 8
miles on his route he found unexpect- 8
ed comfort and rest. Applying for
what light work he could do at a mod- c
est little home, the patient-faced, 1'
sweet-iiouled mistress pitied his for- t
lorn condition. There was some work '
to do about the chicken house and ^
the garden. He might try a week at *
it, and meantime he would be wel- t
come to a cot in the garret and all 1
the well-cooked food he could eat. t
Joel worked with a will, so far as ?
his condition would permit. He be- c
came acquainted with tho daughter of
a widow next door. They were poor, *
but respectable. They grew to like >
the bright-hearted youna fellow, who >
entertained them with stories of a 1
wandering career that showed a deep 1
knowledge of human nature. From 1
them he learned that the Davis peo- *
pie, for whom he worked, were under *
a spell of trouble. Their son, about {
to be married, had lost his position,
was forced to find new work. He 1
was, furthermore, under suspicion, 1
and the wedding and his social rehabilitation
must wait.
"Why! What is this?" exclaimed
Mr. Davis one afternoon, as moving
a chair on the porch upon which '
hung Joel's coat, a bankbook fell out.
"I declare! A great object of charity
you've picked up, Nellie?a tramp
with a thousand dollars in bank!" J
"He's good all through, Just the
same," declared Mr. Davis. "A thousand
dollars? Husband, I can't understand
it?he told me he had no
money whatever."
"He'll explain, or leave," decided
Mr. Davis. And he called Joel. The
latter valued his pleasant environ- ,
ment. He told all his story. To his
astonishment Mrs. Davis uttered a
shriek and fainted away at the recital.
Hut an explanation of the mystery
came speedily. It was the son of Mr.
Davis who had been robbed in the
city. He had gone to see his fiancee,
had drawn from the bank his savings t
in one large banknote, and had taken
from the jewelry establishment where
he worked a number of pieces of Jew- j
elry from which his lady love might j
select a bridal gift. ! s

1EST WIDTH OF GOOD ROADS
Id Turnpikes, Still Our Best Road*
Ways, Were Not Wide?Built for
Service and Profit.
One of the best roads I have ever
riven over was just wide enough for .
WO vehicles to uass without srranln?
tie paint oft each other's hubs. I am
ot sure that sometimes tho hubs did |
ot touch. But it was a road that I
ras always in good condition and tho \
men who kept it up seemed to do so
rith comparative ease, writes W. E.
lose of Iowa in Farm Progress.
Some of the old turnpikes, still our
iest roadways, were not a rod in
ridth. When these roads were built
hey were built for both service and
rofit, and in figuring tho future profts
the builders saw that the wider the
oadway and the wheel track the more
maintenance cost and, therefore, the
ess profits.
It is a pity that the men who laid
>ut the first 60-foot and 6G-foot highways
hadn't taken a leaf from tho
icok of the turnpike builderB. If they
tad we would not have millions of
cres of land lying worse than idle
Jong our public highway right of ways.
Say that tho road runs 20 allies from
ounty seat to county seat. Along its
ength there will bo anywhere from 80
o 120 acres of land growing up in
weeds, road grass, brush and thickets
where it is not being washed into deep
oadside gullies. Why, in some states j
hero is a full hnlf million nrroa of
and that is being wasted in just
hat way and land in these states is
telling anywhere from $30 to $li00
in acre!
Many of the best and most famous
oads of Europo are but 16V6 feet in
vidth and they handle some of the
rery heaviest highway traffic. Right
low in those counties and townships
n this country where hard roadB, pernanent
highways, are being constructed,
few of them are being built more
han 18 feet wide and a good many
>f them are even narrower.
The railroads, wasteful as they are
n some things, are beginning to realze
the waste of a useless right of way.
Within a week young Davis was re- s
stored to his old position. Gratitude (
could do no less than find Joel a good t
position. As he prospered, love kept ?
him stanch to the widow's pretty t
daughter, and the wanderer found the j
safe anchorage of a cozy, happy home {
at last.

WILL BRINGPF
Grape is One of Hardiest and 2
Develop Well Without Prop<
to Train Vines to Soi
Unquestionably, the grape Is one of
the surest fruks that can be grown in
South Carolina. Practically all the
standard varieties will succeed. Nor
is the fruit often injured by late frost.
In general, it is safe to say that when
vines are properly cared for there is
almost a certainty of a crop every
year.
But although the grape will produce
some fruit under almost any
treatment, yet results that are really
worth having cannot be obtained with- out
proper care of the vines. The old
practice of planting a vine Just anywhere
and letting it grow at will is entirely
wrong. Under such conditions,
vines become thick and fall on the
ground, there is a tendency to overproduction
of fruit, to small bunches,
and inferior berries, and at about tflie
time the grapes begin to color up, they
begin to rot. As a result, when the
irim snouia ne reaay ror use. one-half
or two thirds of it is worthless. Besides,
vines handled thus are weak
and last only a few seasons.
Perhaps the worst mistake in grape
culture is failure to prune properly. It
is very important that the vines be
trained to some definite form. The
easiest method of training the grape
is as follows: t
First year: Plant one-year-old vines. 1<
As soon as they have been put out. Ii
cut them back to three buds, as shown r
at (a) in Illustration. Should all three g
of these grow, rub one off. leaving the i,
strongest two to grow and form the r
frame of the vine. During the first f
season's growth the young shoots t
should he tied to a stake, as shown at
ib) in illustration. This is to pro- s
duce healthy canes. Should they be j
allowed to run on the ground, they will c
be weak and more liable to injury. t
Second year: A trellis must now 1
be prepared. Set posts 20 feet apart I
along each row of grapes. This will 1
give space for two vines between each f
two posts. The posts, when set, should 1
show four and one-half feet above the i
ground. The end posts should be set 11
at least three feet in the ground and (
well braced to prevent giving when <
the vines are stretched. The other !
posts should bp sot at least two feet
deep. To the posts sire nailed two i
wires on which to train the vines. The , <
lower wire is two feet above ground
and the upper wire two feet above the i
lower. These preparations made, the !
young canes should he taken off the i
stakes, one cut off at the height of the
first wire and tied, and the other al- .
lowed to extend to the top wire, as
shown at (c).

Characteristics of Chickens Tha
General Purpose Breeds?Vi
Plymouth Rock Most
Flreeds of poultry can be conveni- |
ently divided into two classes: tl) ,r
the egg breeds, and (2) the general 1
purpose breeds. This division is like
that of cattle into beef and dairy t
types, and of horses into light and
heavy classea.
In the egg breeds of poultry the j
primary requirement is the produc- t
tion of a great number of eggs of
standard size. The fowls are not ex- I?
pected to be prime table specimens. |
but tliey must lay throughout the a
year, except when they have to rest c
and recuperate. They do not sit and i
batch chickens and they lay white- I
ihelled eggs. The more popular egg t ^
breeds are leghorns, Mlnorcas, An:onas
and Camplnee. The most popu- I j
lar variety of these breeds Is the Sin- |
lie Comb White I^eghorn. j
All large egg farms are stocked |e
with White L<eghorn pullets and hens, | a
because it Is possible to obtain L
i breeding stock In this variety that :

and wide and deep at the rear, she 'f
has the greater part of her body be- r
hind her legs. A good layer has a n
large, soft, flexible rear end, dropping
down between her legs and so ,(
wide that the legs are sot far apart to (.
accommodate It. The rear end of the
hen corresponds to the udder of the ,
dairy cow and must be large and yieldinc.
not small and hard.

three buds, (b) First year's growth,
two canes allowed to grow, (c)
First season's pruning, (d) Second

Third year: Numerous canes will
>e thrown out from the two that were
eft the preceding season. The prunng
necessary this year will consist of
etnoving all canes except four, one
;olng each way from an old vine on
Kith wires. These four canes are comnonly
called "arms." They form the
rame on which the fruiting canes will
le produced.
After this year the pruning will conlist
of renewing the four "arms" each
rear when suitable canea of the pre
:edinp season's growth can be found
o take their places. If this cannot
)C done, all the canes should be out
jack to two or three buds. Thee?
mds will throw out shoots the next
leason on which the fruit will be
jorne. It is always best to renew the
irms each year if possible. When thie
nethod is followed, each vine will proluce
from 75 to 100 hunches of grapes
iach year, which is enough. (Tne ^
vines are also kept thinned out, so
that the sun can strike all portions
ind that spraying can be done suc:essfuily.
