I was thinking, like Danty and Beatrice, it might come to be one of those beautiful, passing dreams " "Dare I Well, Ermintrude Hill, if you think I'd back down now, at this crucial time, after" Jlary-i'rances stopped, caught her breath sharply. Deep annoyance, coupling ao sudden ly with her intense excitement, had all but betrayed her "after we've promised Mis Byerly that we'd take part and everything " Miss Byerly was their Sunday school teacher. Ann hung up the dishoan. and turned on the faucet above the sink. and swished the water about with a brush, and decided to let that de for this evening. Phil, surely, would be here now before long. Phil was late again, bhe did not mind, because ahe had heard or read that the aecret of successful love lay not in ignoring faults but in recognizing them and not minding them. Tears ago, when Phil had always been early, she had not minded that, and so, sensibly, there was no reason for minding now because he was al ways late. Probably it was merely a habit and not a fault at all; or were habits and faults the same? She took two damp tea towels from the seat of a chair and went to hang them on the rack above the stove. It was mean of Mary-Frances to skip off, as she had, before the tin ware was washed. It bad been sweet of Cecily to offer to help, though she should have known Ann would not al low it when ahe had company. Cecily was in love. For nearly 10 minutes Ann had forgotten it. Poor Cissy Ann caught it back and tried to cor rect it. She likes it, of course. I am in love, and I like it. Of course I like it. I must like being in lore with Phil who is always late. She turned out the kitchen light and went through the big dining room Into the front hall. Mary-Frances waa coming quietly down the stairs, and she tipped her chin to sauciness as she answered Ann's question.

U.F A first edition law book, regardless of age, isn't nearly as enticing as some thing recreational and old, say Shakespeare or Dickens. "The hundreds of old volumes on law in the state supreme court library are worth about one-tenth of what is cheerfully paid for contemporary editions of the old and famous au thors dealing in non-technical sub jects," Librarian Edward Gillingham commented. "About the most valuable book In the entire library collection is the first book of Judgments, printed in England in 1655. Although experi enced collectors declare they have seen only two volumes of this edition, cost of the book is placed between $2U0 and $300 dollars. "Included among other rarefies in the supreme court library are a four volume first edition of Blackstotie's commentaries, a first edition of Coke's institutes, printed in 1628, and a treatise on Maritime lawa. sir l no mas Seabright. baronet, was publisher of the nautical English volume in 1636. It was written almost 8U0 years ago." Insane Patients May Be Re-Committed SALEM, Ore.. Dec. 21. U.R uut-r-t-county patients committed to the state hosnitals for insane by Uma tilla or Marion county judgea will probably be re-committed as from their own sections. A controversy that recently arose as result of counties being charged for care of patieiits who are actunlly residents of some other section will no doubt be amicably settled. Ben Wing, in charge of collections for upkeep of non-violentiy insane, said. Prior to enactment of the 1031 law providing that those patients who are financially able shall pay tor their keep at the teehle minded or state hospital Institutions, counties had no incentive to be atrict regarding com mitment and resident qualifications, Wing explained.

Jenkins drilled 400 pounds of superphosphate along with rows of two and one-half acrea of the turnips after they were put up, leaving an untreated check plot. The treated rround this fall yielded 33 tons per acre, while the che-k plot produced only 20 tons. He estimated the total increase on tne two ano one half ei-res At 25 tons valued at f2 a ton.
