FRENCH FARMERS MADE GAINS Assertion That They Realized Largs Financial Deneflts From tht s War Seems FteatonabU. A ctnss of French society that gnlntd large llnauclnl benellts from the war U tho fanners. They have become of lata a great force In French politics, thus far only defensively, In avoiding taxation, but later they will surely grow more Aggressive. In the old dnys many, If not most, of them used to rent the land they tltlod, but now the tenant farmer has ceased to exist they have all recently bought their farms. There were 2,000,000 American soldiers In France, and It Is estlmutcd that, on an average, they spent a dollnr a day apiece out of their own pockets; this makes $2,000,000 a day, and most of It went to the French farmers, to say nothing of the millions spent by our government to supply rations to these very soldiers. Tho difference between tho city profi teers and the farmers Is that the for mer nro few, while tho latter represent a very Inrgo vote, which has the same results Hint It would have In any other republic, viz., those representing the largo vote are not tnxedl Tho needs of tho French budget will doubtless bring about a correction of this state of affairs, when tho farmer vote will have to pnss from the de fensive to tho aggressive.

Dated this 7th day of January, 1922. . (8BAL) H. S. SACKETT, B ' County Clerk Copyright, 1111, Itriutn Nwtppr Union Dinna's elder sister brought her argument to a climax. "Remember, my dear," she said grandly, "Unit you are an Orvllle." "Well," asked Diana testlly,'"exnct lywhat does that menu? First, and always, 1 am an American, and If ray mother chose to fall In Jove and marry Into an aristocratic old family, why should 1 bo coutlnuully persecuted with the fnctr Qwcndolln shrugged. "Mother was a sweet nnd lovable ludy. You greatly resemble her pic tures, Dlnna. Dut sho woro herself out endciiorlug to live up to tho re quirements of father's family, falling dispiritedly In tho end. Mother's tnstrs and munitions wore simple nnd home ly, like yours, my dear. Tho rest of us nro atl Orvlllcs. And I don't mind confessing here, In the secrecy of my boudoir, that my mnrrlago was made In accord with the dictates of father's family. I owed them Hint. Aunt Phyl lis Orvllle talked with me often con cerning my duty, and I knew what would bo expected when Grandmother Orvllle, In my girlhood, sent me abroad. I was supposed to repay that kindness by a grntlfylng marriage. And I did. Gordon Is a banker, com ing from ono of the finest families in IloMon. There was a boy In tho co-ed college I attended" Guendnlln paused. Her usually shnrp black eyes were tilled with drrmns. "Never mind that episode," sho went on. "I merely refer to It to show you Hint we all have our lovo affairs and that they are easily put In nbcy ance. I admit I rather fancied this stranger admirer of yours, until Lots Admits learned accidentally of his boordlng plnce. My dear I Think of man of the slums presuming to force his attentions upon you I I declare It makes me furious when I realize how Iols must havo laughed In secret over our humiliation." "She need not laugh," Diana sold, her quiet tone In plcnsant contrast to her sister's excited one. "John Dalton Is a man, whether ho lives In the slums or the exclusive park, though that 'slum' remark Is nn exsggerstlon. Ho does board, he told me so frankly, In an old nnd shabby part of the city. He Is trying to make his way up In Ills profession, alone nnd unaided. He thought," nddrd Diana bravely, "thin we could marry sooner that way. And nothing In tho world," the girl raised her lovely, flushed face, "Is of conse quence to John now, snvc our mar riage nnd his profession." Owendolln Jumped to her feet. "flood heavens I" sho exclaimed. "Has your affair gone as fnr as that? What will father say, If you persist In this foolishness!" , the sitter walled. Dlitnii arose. "I don't know," she replied. "I guess I'll go nnti ask him." Hur father was not In any room of the apartment which they 'shared together, so she sught him later In his otllce. "Father," the young, loved daughter asked abruptly, "whnt became of Aunt Phyllis Orvllle, and why were my sisters obliged to live up to her snobbish standards!" "Drought up like a princess, Phyllis was," he said. "We Orvlllcs had a pretty tine home, big stone placo fuclng Orvllle court. Phyllis Inherited the properly and disposed of It, I suppose, Jong ago. Foreigners and buslncw blocks havo crowded out tho court. It's called plain Court street now, I never drive dowu that way tarnishes my memories." "Court street," repeated Dlann. "Fa ther, I came to talk to you about Court street. It's where a man lives that I love," "Lote," uhlspervd Colin Orvllle. He stared now at his daughter, Dlattu nodded. "John Is a civil eu gluecr, father," she went on, "and your on u friend Mr, Stewurt thinks a great deal of him. Dut awendollu is hu miliated because I want to marry John, for 1 am au Orvllle, and he lives on Court street." The sentences came In a confused rush. Deliberately her father arose and got Into his coat. "We will go und see Just where he Is," be said. "We con talk things over on the way." It was a dingy houso of past gran deur oh, very far past, with crowd lug stores on either side, and children chatterlug around It In a forelga tougue. Colin Orvllle grasped his daugh ter's arm. "Diana," he cried, "my dear, this Is my old home." He shook bis head sadly, then smiled his whimsi cal smile. "That, for the lasting glory of a proud name, and a proud house." An old lady opeuod the door. She was a tall, white-haired woman, and sho opened to them as one conferring a favor; then all at once her sternness melted Into one longing cry, "Colin," she ssld, "Oh, Oollnl" "To think," Dlana'a father said later, as the throe sat In the old parlor together, "that you married a poor man abroad, Phyllis, my dear, and were- too proud to confess to your fam ily. And to think that you came back again to live on here In secrecy per haps In want " "Oh, no," the old lady answered him, "I have made a living, Colin, and I've bad some really nice boarders. There's an exceptional young man stopping with me now, a Mr. John Dalton " "I know," luughed Dl&na, tremulous, starry-eyed; "that young man Is going to marry an Orvllle, Aunt Phyllis." FLANT INDOOR WINDOW BOA Small Expense and Little Effort Re quired to Have Ornamentation Always Pleating. To tho real garden lover the charm of the garden con be extended all through the winter months, for a window gar den gives cheer to a room nnd Is al ways n soured of Interest and delight. Window boxes can be kept charming for the entire J car by filling them with hardy begonias and ferns, suggests the Christina Science Monitor, Another In teresting arrangement, all In green, Is ef small palms and ferns of the long leaved Dostou type, nnd naparagus sprengcrl to trail over the edge. Prim roue, the Chinese or common variety, and Irish Ivies make a window box with n delightful color note. For late autumn, If tho room Is kept cool, some of the dnrllng tittle chrysnntbcmumt In brown nnd yellow nro effective and they will hist several weeks. For the lato winter or early spring flowering bulbs may bo used among ferns. In planting a winter garden one must always remember that plants do not thrive nenr steam beat, nnd If the radiator Is under tho window a brond shelf should bo placed six Inches or mora above It and the box set back on the shelf, so that tho force of hot air does not come too near the foliage. The small expense and the little ef fort required for n beautiful Indoor window box mnkes It Hislhle foi very home-loving woman to have onf rteitoratlon Worth While. Why build new cottages? Why not repair old ones) These were tho ques tions asked by the Society for tho Pro tection of Ancient Dulldlngs, In ling land, and answered successfully. The society took n veritable relic of old England, Ave centuries old If a single day, In tho shape of two dwellings mi der one root at Drlnkstone, In Suffolk. Tho thick timbers, seasoned to the quality of Iron, were good, but the roof, the floor and the windows were defective. In fact the building was habitable only on a portion of the ground floor. Nothing daunted, the so ciety set to work und, by Judicious restoration, made the old dwellings as sound as a bell. The total cott of the work, Including tho freehold site, whs 1.1,012. A new cottago would have cost at least 14,760, not Including the site. Is It nny wonder that the society Is cutting round for other old haunts to conquer) Chrlttlan Science Monitor.
