"Bigclow Is celebrating his fiftletn birthday Joday," said Fessenden, "and we have planned a little surprise party for Uim. A dosen or bo of his old friends and neighbors are going to blow in on him this evening and present him witty a gold headed" cane. We want you along, and would like It mighty well if you'd make a Httlejjresentation Ebeech." j"I have no doubt that you'd like It .Mighty.. well," said Rumblelow. "You lqave some plot framed up to put me (Hit of business far keeps, but 1've.quit tyins" to fall Ky f. this neighborhood.

I saw Bise low and Traphagen winking and grin ning at each other, but I supposed they were merely In good spirits as I was and didn't suspect a plot. But when I had my wheelbarrow full of Junk there was the worst, explosion that ever happened in this state. jj "Bigelow had placed a big cannon Cracker that weighed about five pounds in ant old asparagus can and of course I plotted It up and put it in my wheel barrow. About a million old rusty cans' and dead cats and things flew trr and hit me., in various olaces and knotted me off my feet, and two women wei $ Jtepi ousy ior a week.; making poultices for me.

It was Bigelow who persuaded me 1 to ;;o fishing with him last summer. I m , ir did have any use for fishing, and i toid him so.

So, although. I had a dim sus picion that there was a foul plot some where, I finally' yielded and went along. "We went down to the river, and I sat under a tree and began reading a book.

Is marriage between a boy and a girl likely to lead to greater happiness-thah that of a mature man and woman? Or, does. age play little if any part in de termining the matter? Such questions have been asked Count' less millions, of times in the past. . In all likelihood, they will be asked as frequently in the future. Yet the prob lem which they present is no nearer a solution today than it was a thousand op! more -years ago. The reason we can' find no answer to the question is that so much depends upon individual char acter and so little upon general prin ciples that it Is Impossible to formulate a rule that will fit even & mau ma jority of cases.: . ; -.
