No one knew how to , more sacrenstnlly than Ash toreth. On $1K she could look like u rich man's daughter. She wore black exclusively.

Ashtoreth handed the surprising communication back to her em ployer. Acutely uncomfortable, she stood rigidly by bis desk. . , "I do not undeirttand," she said, "why ou wlnhed me to read your most personal ' correspondence'.'' "Because: He explained, " want ed to get your reaction. 1 Wanted to see the effect of a letter likw that on a girl like you. A whim. perhnps. "Mae de Marr worked ih this of tic once. A filing clerk, I believe. I wondered how many girls like her there are out there. I thought, perhaps, you could tell me." Ashtoreth raised her head. "I am afraid," she said, "thai I cannot help you. J wonder why you thought 1 could." "1 hope I have not offended you." he apologized. "I assure you there was nothing at all personal; In my inquiry. I m simply Interest id In this modern girl proposition. I thought maybe you could help me see the light." He came then, and stood In front of her. "Please, Mint. Ashe." he ai 1 tea led boyishly, "tell me what's It all About?" They say modern girls are self respecting. We hear no much about the modern girl and her independence. It's Just a lot of nonsense, Isn't it? He a good sport. Miss ' Ashe how many Mae de Mans have I out (here?" "Von mean," nhe asked evenly, "how many girls would let you set 1 hem up In art apartment, and be prepated, when you had tired of them, to step out of the picture?" "My gosh. Miss Ashe!" Hart explored his pockets ner vously for cigarets. "Hold oh a minute. You've got me quite wrong. I wasn't if you'll pardon the expression keeping Miss de Marr. She came to me a few months ago with a hard luck story. 1 was sorry for the girl. She a something of a moron. , du ; see. A prelty little thing; with the j mentality, i should say, or a 12-year-old. And the sex appear of a born courtesan. You know the type. "Her mother, she said, had thrown her out. There'd been a bit of scandal and the old folks were pretty much upset: It may seem a bit Don Quixotic, but Pell, to tell the truth" Mr. Hart pained to light a cigar et, and Ashtoreth scribbled "lbn ijuixotlc" on the cover of her note book. Something eUe id look up in the library. Chant ly hdw many things a girl didn't know. Lois of )ieople used the expression. She wondered f j hey nil knew what It meant. He glanced at her .quickly as she j Slipped her penrll back In place. But her hands were folded now as before, quietly In her lap. "My secretary, " he Informed her surprisingly, "has a perfect pas sion for cuts. A few months ago lie 1 suggested that we endow some thing or-otner for homeelits felines. A hospital, I thluk It u an asylum for Indigent animals. lx, too, If I remember correctly, tie persuaded me to sign a check for "Well, he hadn't been out of here JO mlnuies with my check In hi pocket when In walks this little le Marr. Crying her eyes out. It was about six o'clock. She'd wait ed, i Suppose, until the rest of the girls had gone. I was waiting my self for a telephone call. "NowI wonder if 1 can make myrelf clear Mr. Higxins goes in, you see, lor dumb animals. Well, here was a dumb woman. And, if a flock of cats la worth tlu.oOoV how much, I a.k myself, is a wom an worth? If a man can endow a home for animals, to keep them off, the streets, how about a girl? How much was It worth to keep her off; the streets?" Mr. Hart paused. "A purely rhetorical question,"! he asur d her. "I was merely sitecuiating. It's puzzling the rela tive value of things. Particularly when a man with a philanthropic1 bent acquires a great deal of mony. "Can you Imagine, Miss Ashe. having so much money thnt It doesn't make any difference to me, I mean whether I spend It on starving cats or foolish girls?" You don't really mean that? she gasped. Well," he admitted, "there is more kick, of course, In spending It on girls. Cats are so undemon strative, don't you know. Anyhow I reckoned It would be more fun squandering a few thousand on the little l)e Marr. A better return, you might say. On the investment." "h." AKhtoieth straightened uncon sciously in her high-backed chair. "So," he murmured,' "I didn't mean that at all. My word, you are a suspicious young person. My motives, I assure you, were entire ly respectable. Only I'd rather In cur the gratitude of a pretty girl than the feline caresses of the best dam' Maltese In Boston. An entirely masculine point of view. Perhaps you do not appreciate it, Miss APhe." "Oil, yes," she retorted, "I quite understand." "MIhs de Marr," he resumed, "talks a lot about the 'modern girl.' Now I wonder what It Is, Miss Ashe, that makes people do that." He smiled ingratiatingly, and Ashtoreth noticed the humorous little lift of an eyebrow. He was, really, she decided, quite charm ing. "You'd think," he complained, "that she was an entirely new spe cies. The newspapers prate df her, and the reformers. And the best sellers are all about her. The gen eral Opinion seems to he that thlB so called modern girl Is a paragon of all the recent virtues. Honest, fearleSs, clear thinking, independ ent. "Personally. I'm beginning to think she's a good deal of a fratid. H seems to me that she's .retty prdfldent th mrist of the old time vices. I might almost say that she practices them excluaively. And this war cry of hers "Independ ence and Kqual nights! Is rather a lot of hokum. However. Miss de Mar may he an exception, or course. That's what I'd like you to tell me."

UJUHE GIVES REVIEW OF 1928 FARM SITUATION In takln stock of the year or b2H in agriculture, , Secretary of Agriculture W. M. Jardine atates that when we ry to estimate the present condition of farmlns; In the 1' nlted States we should consider not only the ft round to be won, but also the resistance that already has ben overcome. Judged by this standard, he aald, speaking as one who "knows the up a and downs of farming from firsthand experi ence," 6ur procress since 1921 Is highly creditable to the ones most responsible, the farmers them selves. Howevr. Secretary J a r d I h emphasized that he did. hot believe the remedy . for agricultural fcondi- Jtlons lies wholly in the hands of rarmers. Accordint? credit for their errorts; ana" also to government In terest as Indicated by hiore than twenty favorable laws paused dur ing the period of depression, he said, "the farming Industry with Its Mix and a half million units is hot in a good position to take advan tage of the laws already passed or ones that will be put on the sta tute books for their benefit. We need to so organize agriculture that tt can act quickly and Intelli gently an a group. We don't want farmers in dliferent sections work ing at cross purposes. It is good busineas for farmers and good statesman for government to achieve for agriculture the same solidarity In organization that busi ness already enjoys.' Reviewing the faritl year the Rpeiiker said the events of "re mind us that fortunes ebb and flow In the various branches of farming. The cattle and sheep sections of the west once more have enjoyed a gbttd year. The cottnh belt has 1 done fairly well.. The daily Indus try has done well. Poultry ratserB made money. Potato growers and many wheat growers passed through a trying business year. Returns from hay and tobacco will be lower than last year. In each Instance, different cir cumstances brought about the year's results." ' It appears, the secretary said, that agriculture's gross Income fo. the crop year will be slightly high er than last, and that the net In come "will exceed that pf last year by more lhan one would conclude from a study of the gross income figures alone. Prices Of some of the principal supplies used In farm production were about the same in the two years, but many farmem economized on these Items. By greater etflclency, farmers saved more, labor, got niore but of feed stuff s, and did away with certain wastes In the process of getting their products to the consumer. We may. sately sny that American farmers produced more with fewer hands this year than ever before." Hotter results would have follow ed better planning, the speaker continued, citing particularly the "ruinous situation" in the potato industry resulting from expanded acreage In the face ot warnings is sued by the department In January, March and May. With more Intelli gent use of the InfnrmaiJon a ft 01 d- niity be done to control production. The secretary called particular at tention to the annual outlook re port to be Issued late in January. Hounding out the tiew of , the ypHr, Secretary Jardine called at tention to the tact that "our indus trial population at homo Is the largest, most prosperous, and af ford? our fanners the best domes tic market In the world.' In the past quarter of a century farmers of the f tilted States have become less dependent oh foreign htaikets as shown by the fact that exports of agricultural commodities are be coming a diminishing part of our ,ol, ,.xi,ori Our national policy i ls ,0 in811r, to insure the splendid domestic market to our farmers by an ade quate protective tariff." He also said that foreign markets oifer reasonably good prospects, ftarti-t-ulnrly In Ihe Orient and South America.

The giave consequences of con tinned deforestation make it im perative that the tederal govern ment, .the states, and the timber land dwners Join cooperatively in a more positive and aggressive ef fort to end the evils ot forest de vastation, according to a state ment by Secretary of Agriculture Jardine made in connection witii comments on ft pamphlet "De forested America," written by Ma jor George P. Ahem, formerly chief forester of the Philippines and one of the earliest exponents or modern forestry In the I'nlteU Stales a pamphlet widely circulat ed by ex-Governor Gilford Pinchot bf Pennsylvania, who was chief rorester during the Roosevelt ad ministration. Pointing out the progress thus far made in the cooperative fores try movement. Secretary Jardine expressed the belief that coopera tion between government and In dustry is applicable to the forest situation on a nfuch larger scale than tt has hitherto been applied, but stated that, if the cooperative method proves Inadequate, national securttv will require that it be sup plemented br supplanted by more drastic measures. Although expressing the view that the forest situation 1b far from satisfactory and that forest destruction Is widespread. Secre tary Jardine pointed to the pro gress made in forestry, especially under the cooperative forest fire control program of the federal gov ernment, the states, and private land owners, in this program both the states and many private land owners have worked loyally with the Department of Agriculture, said the secretary, and progress ia being made by some of the more progressive lumber companies and land owners, In the adoption of oth er improved forest practices be sides fire protection. "The department of agriculture is interested in the forest prbbleiu not only as a matter of timber sup ply, but as a matter of productive use of land," the statement con tinues. "One fourth of our total land area ia better suited physi cally and economically for forest production than for any other pur pose, and the continued deteriora tion of this vast resource is ad versely affecting agriculture as well as every other line of in: dustry."
