Mrs. H u n t sta rte d a little, th en smiled.

w hen we were n o t attach ed to each other.
We g raduated a t tlio sam e tim e a t the

tu re of l^atln. I t is said th a t ’a little
le a rn in g is a dangerous thing. ’ C ertain ­
ly it w as in o u r case. A fte r we left school
we kept up o u r studies together. One
evening we got in to a discussion about a
certain line of V irgil. We could n o t agree
about the tra n sla tio n and were unw ise
enough to argue the m a tte r too long and
too w arm ly.

Mrs. H u n t had been a widow for some
years, and the gentlem an in question had
lost his wife a couple of years before,- so
th a t m u tu a l friends, k n ow ing of th e ir for­
m er rom ance, had been perhaps a little too
officious in th e ir efforts to effect a recon­
ciliation. They argued th a t tim e brings
wisdom, and it w as presum able th a t in
th e lig h t of a score of years they had la ­
m ented the im petuosity of youth, which
had barred th e w ay to satisfactory expla­

There are some men with whom thrift
and miserliness are synonymous, but the
humble hero of this tale can scarcely be
called even penurious, despite the fact
that iu 15 years, out. of a salary of
1 10.50 a week, he has accumulated over
$6,000, all of which is drawing at least
4 per cent interest.
When the “ L ” roads were completed
and the ticket chopping machines placed
in position, he of whom this is written
received charge of one at an up town
station during the night hours. Since '
the day he went on his post, he has nev- j
er taken or asked for as much as an
hour’s leave of absence. Seven days each
week and 52 weeks each year has he
continuously worked the handle of his
machine np aud down, receiving there­
for the munificent sum of $1.50 a day.
Out of this lie has by rigid economy laid
by $1 every 24 hours. The remaining 50
cents has fed. clothed and lodged him.
W hile waiting for a train the other
night I asked him how he had done it,
thinking of my modest dinner that had
cost me more than his day’s earnings.
“ This way, ” he said as he ground my
ticket into a shapeless mass. “ In the
first place, I never use tobacco or liquor.
I hire a hall rogm for $1 a week, leav­
ing me $2.50 for board and clothing. I
am not a hearty eater, and a breakfast
consisting of a howl of oatmeal and a
cup of coffee, both of which I prepare
myself on a small oil stove, costs me
about 5 cents. For lunch two good sized
rolls cost only as many cents, and I find
that they are sufficient. For dinner I
have rice, some soup, a couple of pota­
toes, bread and coffee, the cost averag­
ing about 80 cents a week. This leaves
me $1.20 a week for clothing, but an
occasional piece of meat on Sunday and
other incidentals reduce that fund to
90 cents. That allows me $50 a year for
clothing, shoes, etc., which is ample, as
I have less wear and tear on my uni­
form than a guard. When I secured my
position, I knew that unless I saved
while I was earning something I would
die a pauper, so I began to lay some­
thing by at once. I cannot expect to
hold my present position much longer,
as the company w ill root out the old
stock to make room for new, but if I am
allowed to continue chopping tickets for
a couple of years more I w ill have $10,-
000, and on the interest of that, in some
quiet country town, I can pass my last
days in perfect rest. ’ ’
“ How have you got your money in­
vested?” I asked.
“ Some of it is in savings banks and
the rest in good securities. Queer, isn’t
it, but I ’m a stockholder iu the road
that employs me? City Hall train. ’ ’
That cut short the conversation, hut
I often wonder as I pass his station if
any of the officials of the road are aware
that a despised ticket chopper helps to
elect them to their positions of trust.—

ing what some of our readers may re­
gard as a new method. It is only the
small number of plants of Jersey Wake­
field intended for the earliest use, which
we have started under glass in February
and set in open ground in March or
April. A ll cabbages intended for use in
midseason and later were sown directly
in open ground and there left to ma­
ture without transplanting. This “ new
cabbage culture” has been mentioned
quite frequently, and yet it is so little
practiced by the average home gardener
and yet so very valuable that it w ill
hear more aud stronger words in its
favor. Indeed we find it the easiest and
simplest way of starting a patch.
The land is enriched and prepared in
the usual way required for any of our
garden crons. Light marks are then
made with the garden marker, two feet
apart for small sorts, three apart for
late and very large ones. Next we take
a cup or other small dish (or a paper)
containing the seed in the left hand,
take np a few seeds between thumb and
index finger of the right hand and drop
them iu the mark, lightly rubbing over
the spot with the right foot and finally
stepping on it. The operation is repeat­
ed at proper distances, a pinch of seed
being dropped about 18 inches apart in
the marks for Jersey Wakefield and two
feet or more for the later, larger sorts.
Thus a big patch can be planted iu a
very short time. The seed soon comes
up. If flea beetles become troublesome,
a sprinkling of ashes or tobacco dust
w ill drive them off to more hospitable
quarters. When the plants are iu strong
growth (two or three inches high), they
are thinned to one in a place, the best
plant in each h ill being left. The thin­
nings may be used, if desired, to make
some of your neighbors happy who like
good plants, but were not fortunate
enough to know or practice the “ new
cabbage culture. ’ ’ If there happens to
be a mishill, or you want to set some
plants in a place where a first crop has
just taken off, yon have the plants and
good ones to do it with.
Let me say with all emphasis that
nitrate of soda is a wonderfully effect­
ive fertilizer for cabbages and cauli­
flower, as also for spinach, beets, etc.
Wherever nitrate of soda can be readily
obtained in small quantities, home gar­
deners should not fail to make use of i t
It really has every advantage over other
nitrogenous fertilizers. It is the cheap­
est source of nitrogen. It is clean, it is
easily applied, and it shows its often
remarkable effects sooner after applica­
tion than any other fertilizing sub­
stance. We just scatter a scant table­
spoonful around each plant and repeat
once or twice, or we just sow the stuff
broadcast at the rate of a pound or two
to the square rod.
