! Upon the tiortheni shore of Lake So
l pcrior, smuggled in between sun tipped
1 hills, is a small villago knowu best for
' its lumbering and shipping industries. '
! A long neck of narrow land forms a
t natural breakwater and thus guards and
1 protects the small town from Neptune's
wrath. The harbor is scarcely more than
two miles wide and four long, but is
J celebrated for its uncontrollable cur
i rents, jagged hidden rocks and Aprilish
I moods.
j Ou this neck of land am scattered a
j few houses, all Inhabited by lovers of
tho sea and nature's work and surrounil-
ol ly dense groves or swaying pines. :
Ono day a few years ago there ciiine
from ono of these houses a dark eyed
young woman w hose, skin wan rough
ened from the llcrco lake winds and
whose hands showed only too plainly
that hard, coarse work befell licr lot. i
Her boots were heavy, liko those of a
man. Htr gown was not only ill fitting,
but sadly Inland tho times a-i regards!
style and lacking by several inches its
proMr length, und on her head was
drawn down closely over her cars a
man's felt hat. Yet, notwithstanding
these proofs of the uncouth woman,
there was a certain indescribable some
thing nbout her gypsyliko faco that he
told the possession of a fine mind and a
strong, unbending character. It was
neither the soft brown eyes nor thu
smiling mouth, for her features wero ex
tremely plain, uml tho straight fringe
of hair that tendrilcd out now and then
from under the curved hiibhriin gave tho
round cheeks aghastliiicss that remind
ed ouo shivcritigly of witches nud gob
lins und evil spirits. In her arms she
carried a pair of oars, wrapped in a
small sail. Around her firt frolicked
several kittens, uud a hugu black uud
white dog bounded along beside her.
Mio walked slowly toward a small
dock that floated unsteadily out into tho
boy. A flat bottomed bout, with u splin
terliko must und no bowsprit, humped
against the dock now und then with a
soft rubbing ami nudging thut was us
soothing as u mother's evening lulhiby. j
"It looks pretty threatening, see ins to
mo," the girl murmured to herself.
"This hero bay is always ready to cut
up its monkey shines just when folks j
wants it to bchuvo itself. If it wasn't
for daddy coming home tonight, and
mother sick, mid nothing much to cut iu 1
the house, I lulievo I'd givo up going
across for tho groceries." Then, uotic- ,
iug a parting of the thick bushes that
bordered tho pathway and catching a
passing glimpse of a faded yellow hat,
she called out, "Hello, Jim!"
The next moment sho was joined by
a stalwurt young man, with tho whole-
Mine nppciiriuicoof a combination farm
er and sailor.
"Going to sail over to tho point, j
Meg?" he nsked.
" Yes. You can go if you want to,"
nho replied, with mischievous eyes and
twitching lips. "I guess 'twon't ho tho
first tints that the little dory lias carried
two passengers. "
"We'd hotter hurry, I reckon," re
joined Jim. "Tho old hike is a-raging, (
and tho bay looks n, bit ill tempered ,
now. We'll have a thundering old storm
beforo next nunrisp, aud I shouldn't be ,
surprised if it arrived before midnight "
Together they hoisted tho sail, adjust
ed the rudder and unfastened thu lines.
Jim seated himself in tho stern, Meg
dropped down on tho scat iu the center j
of tho boat so as to lower nml ralso tho j
ceuterlMiurd, as Captain Jim ordered,
and off they sailed liko a bird let loose
from captivity. Hothwero good sailors,
and tho simple fact thut a huge wave,
dulnged them now und then added rest
to tho sport.
"I soy, Meg," begun Jim as they
plunged through towers of foam and
rocked aud swayed in tho billows,
"don't you think you'ro mighty hard on
a follow? Three years is a long time,
and timo dis s cluuige folks uud things
so. Anyhow I don't see what you'ro
driving ut. I've known you since you
were knee high to a grasshopper, and I
don't like the idea of losing you after
all these years of work and waiting.
Your dad und your mother nro willing,
you say yoa don't disliko mo, and you
kuow what I think uf yon. Conic, now,
tell mo your reasons for this three years'
waiting business. "
"I suppose my reasons aro silly,"
Meg answered slowly and with irritating
deliberation. "Hut, yoa soo, that year
at Miss Hunker's spoiled mo. Even if I
was nothing but a parlor maid, I got
some ideas in my head that stick liko sc
many burs. I don't always want tc
livo this way. I'vespcut every c ut I've
had on tho Ixxiks, and Miss Bank- r has
helped mo lots. I want to bo educated
and know how to talk. I long to be able
to Isi liko the town girls, not so far as
dress goes, hot it's the schooling that I
Wiuit. When I read olsmt those clever
women who paint and writw and teach,
it makes me think that my world is too
mull uud cramped to ever grow uny
bigger unless I break away soon. I lovt
tho water, and the woods, aud the dump
earth itself, but I am wild to lie tip and
doing aud working at something that
will uot end tislny ju-t as it did yester
day and will aguiu tomorrow. I"
A violent breeze struck tho fmoll dory
Just then, tipping It peril'iualy and tend
ing tho girl's hair flying iu a still wilder
fashion. It wa-i soon followed by anoth
er, and tho third raised the rtuall rail
until it stood round anil erect like a fun
nel sh.-issl cono of while canvas.
A fUi-T grating sound beneath, a
crackling of wosl and iron and stone,
.,! tlm rudder was wrenched from
Jim's lmuiL Words were not necessary
just then. Each realimxl that they two
were being toyed with and tossed around
liko bclphma straws. The sail was un
manageable, and the kmt rudder left
them entirely at tba uiwcr of the wind
and wayos.
"Come here with mo!" Jim cried
hoarsely as ho reached for tho shivering
bundle with the flying hair and fright
ened eye, lie drew Meg toward him,
all the timo keeping a firm hold on the
line that prevented the sail from flap
ping inoro dciperutcly.
Abovo the Mar of the water ho heard
her m rvous laugh, uud once sho said,
"I think I'd lie right scared if it wasn't
for our (.-ettiiig caught in these squalls
so often. "
Tho bout was careening liko a livo
creature liinildcned with pain. The wa
ter dashed over the little dory that was
m-udiliiiK toward the shore at an unprec
edented sHi-d. Crowds of curious
watchers lined the Kwh where they
would land. As they ueared the shore
Jim said tremblingly: "This is the
worst fix wo'vo been in yet. We'll bo
dashed to pieces on tho logs unless they
try to help us."
He folded his strong arms around tho
small Kill, and ho pressed her hands
fondly and whispered words of hope and
courage.
"Tell tno just onco that you do care
for me just a little bit, ami that you
won't Iniik out of marrying nio at the
end of three years," he said. "Our
chance for getting out of this alive aro
few, and I know if you don't answer
now you never will. Please, tdease,
please, Meg!" His voice was pitched
loudly uud shrilly.
"I can't promise for sure, Jim. I
can't even now. I'm so frightened. I
know we're both going to die. Tho
waves never scared me before." And
the ret;t was lost as an enormous roll of
water delugi-d them.
No other word was said. A moment
later there was a wild crushing and
creaking of timlicr.
Tho anxious watchers saw the boat
tossed iu among a nest of logs that lined
the Ik-hcIi.
Liko a crowd of stupid, senseless be
ings, they gazed and wrung their hands.
Then they saw a tall form raise itself
up in tho stern of tlio boat. He hud
something iu his arms that looked liko
a woman swathed iu a piece of tarpau
lin. Thu boat was only a few rods from
tho shunt and was just ready to fall to
pieces. Suddenly the tall figure leaped
into t lie water, with his helpless burden
iu ono arm, while with the other bo
fotiglit his way uinoiig the billows and
rolling logs. Tho watchers rushed to his
assistance. They saw lilm whirled and
buffeted arniiml much as a mouse lioing
teased by a frolicsome minded cat. Ho
had nearly reuehed tho shore when au
enormous log flung itself against him.
Willi ii mighty effort ho throw his bur
den toward the frautiu assembly of
people.
Then ho sank nml was seen no more
until thu next day, when his crushed
and mangled body floated gently ou tho
now restful waves, which finally do
posited his remains lit thu foot of tho lit
tle dock where tho dory had always
tugged mid pulled ut its unchor ropes.
And that is the reason why a woman
considered clever and gifted by tho
world's critics is always sad and heart
sick when sho hears the moaning of tho
winds or the roaring of beuting, restless
water. Fume and fortune have come to
her.
Hlio is no longer a crude, uncultured
creature with flying black hair and
rough fingers. Tho world bows down In
reverence to her, for hor stories aro read
by thousands and her pictures received
motit favorably by nil. Kho laughs, and
her friends (Ichiro her to be the jolliest
person iu Christendom. Hut when a
storm comes up, and the skies darken,
und tho air is tilled with dire forebod
ing, hho sinks into a sad, lifeless being,
wIioho eyes lire heavy with unshed tears
and whoso tli rout is choked with sobs.
At these times her friends depart and
murmur soft words of pitying tender

To (lernuiny belongs tho credit of
haviug first demonstrated thu practica
bility uml economy of electric plowing.
An electric motor is fixed to the plow
itself. Tho shaft of the motor, by
means of suitable gearing drives a
shaft fitted with pillion which a chain
runs from one cud of the field to the
other. This chain is held taut at both
cuds by triple ground anchors. When
the motor is put iu operation it hauls
the plow across the field. Wheu the
cud of the field is reached, the plow is
tilted to the other side, aud by revers
ing the motor the shear starts on its
return journey. At a nveiit test at
Hullc-tui-tho-Siiitlc, with a two-furrow,
tilting plow, two lurrows were turned,
measuring together twenty-four inches
iu w iilth by ten inches iu depth, and
traveling at thu rate of thirty-five
inches per second. The aetuid useful
effect obtaiued w as equal to eight horse
power. A rcmurkshlo feature of this
system is that guided by the tightened
chain, very shallow furrows can be
made with great evenm-ss and regular
ity und tho balance plow can thus bo
used for turning over stubble land, and
other light work. The first cost of an
electric plow is said to lie much below
that of a steam cultivating plant. The
eutire outfit of such a plow as that
mentioned, dynamo, steam engine, ca
bles, etc,, can bo hud for about I'.'.OOO.
According to tho figures published as
to the results of the trial, the working
expenses ol the system lire alHitit half
thut of stiam plowing, and if these re
sults are borne out iu practice upon au
extensive scale, there seems to be no
question of the future of tho electric
plow.

"Do I pay for the lady?" repeated
tho astonished man. "Of course I do.
What do you mean?"
