The Kind to Give Up. There are habits that cost more to raise than a family Boston Evening Transcript. Tomato Legally a Vegetable. Botanically a tomato is a fruit. The supreme court, however, has decided that since tomatoes are grown in kitchen gardens, and eaten generally as part of the body of a meal, and as they are sold as vegetables, therefore they should be considered vegetables as far as commerce and general use are concerned. Swedes Make Machine to Dry Native Wheat Stockholm. A new contrivance for counteracting the destructive influence of damp WeatbW on the grain produc tion of Sweden is a grain-drying ap paratus. It is believed -hut the use f this machine will Mt only prove economical to flour mills, hut will at the same time have a definite effect on the Importation of wheat from Amer ica. Swedish mills nnve in me ss found it necessary to blend American I wheat with Swedish wneat in equal ratio, but by drying native wheat with this apparatus only 30 per cent of American wheat will be required for the blend. The machine consists principally of four rotating cylinders with tubes for the circulation of the grain, to which warm air is applied. Knowledge is not found unsought. IjXs) li, liti'i, by atoGlure .Newspaper Syndioate.) To recognize a blessing in guise of an impish boy, requires insight plus lively faith. Possessed of reasonable insight, but wholly lucking faith, Alice set down Tony, her small stepnephew, as the crowning misery of a mlseruble summer. She hud hated him vica riously before seeing him what right iiad a woman witli a son seven years old to take captive her fastidious brother? Jere had scoffed equally at widows and wooing since he was nine teen. A concrete reason, of course, for the scoffing It wore petticoats frilly ones owned a baby stare and an acquired lisp. In the lightest, most fetching half mourning for a husband killed in the first honeymoon, she had annexed Jere casually, played on and with him to bring to bag her real quarry, the semi-senile Senator Core. Instead of making becoming haste to die, the senator had retired from pub lic life from everything but taking care of himself. By consequence Mrs. Core had had bitter reason to rue her bargain. He might live to be ninety liberty was a high price to pay for twenty years more of luxury and slav ery. Moreover, she would get almost nothing in fee only a fair annuity, charged upon the big fortune which, devoted to pompous charity, was to keep in remembrance the name of Core. Jere quit hating her when that came to his knowledge. Indeed, he had only thought he hated her for a longish time. Alice had known the fact, but had been too canny to mention ft. Jere, ten years older, was her para gon. Judge what she suffered when he married an almost nobody, neither rich nor poor, plain nor handsome indeed merely an average person, ex cept for the boy, Tony. He had been, since he was weaned, the best pal of a bachelor uncle, whose conception of the universe was that it existed for Tony's behalf and benefit. Tony began riding to hounds at four on no pony, if you please, a long-striding hunter, full man size. Even then he swore "good mouth lilling oaths" at five he played such poker even the veterans used him re spectfully. A little later he scandal ized the neighborhood by saying to a visiting minister who had insisted upon holding family prayer: "Mr. Man, you talk too long. God tells me he don't like it any better'a I do." And on top of that, to two young women pretending to quarrel over him, he piped in a blase voice: "Stop talkln' foolish. Jinny's too fat and Lou too scrawny. I won't even look at any of your grandchildren." As a make-weight, he had friends legions of them the servants, the men on the farm, the poor folk round about, to whom he was often his uncle's al moner. And to none of them was he ever rude or saucy. This partly from a naturally good heart ; partly also from Uncle Bill's gospel, "A gentleman al ways helps the under dog." He wus straight, long-limbed, up headed, unchlldishly wiry ; his fair skin massed with freckles; his hair sun bleached to the color of tow. Supple as a kitten, active as a flea, he looked the part of terrible infant so perfectly Alice smiled grimly at sight of him, feeling her mlsllking so entirely Justi fied. Clearly the imp was not psychic. In about seven minutes after he begun -taring at her, he said musingly: "Aunt Alice! Well ! I don't so much mind ! Uncle BUI has got to marry now. Mummy won't be there to .take care of us, and If he took anybody else I'd have two aunts to pester." There his new father swooped upon him, chuckling hard, and bore him away, In spite of kicks, poundings, throats of biting, saying over his shoulder: "Alice, Bill is coming next week. He ain't quite so sudden as the head of the family " giving Tony a bear hug; "but he's mighty well Tony-broke " "Apparently I" from Alice at her Iciest : "I hate to disoblige but the fact la I've made other arrange ments," flushing a lovely red, and Miming away her eyes. Be sura then a hubbub broke out a girl who has a doting father, a critical brother, two rich maiden aunts, and an -official fairy godmother sets up a mighty pother, by such un announcement. "Who is he?" Jere demanded, set ling Tony on his feet. Instantly that young person clinched fists and stood forward, the very moral of an angry imntain. "What business had you to make 'rangements?" he demanded shrilly: "You might a-knnwn we hafl ' mirs all nxed L ncie lilll and me: Alice smiled inscrutably, and walked t.. the other door, stopping there t say to the assembled! family, "Save your breath by asking no questions, i '.intent yourselves with knowing, you'll have wedding cards in good lime." I'.eing gentlefolk, there the matter ! words : ed. Uncje Bill came, saw but did t t try to conquer, though Alice ad mitted in the privacy of her own hear er he was a fine man, easy, gracious, delightfully whimsical in speech, with :i wiiille like morning sunshine, whom bVift Intuitively fawned on and babies toddled after. He shook his bead at tier, with Tony riding pig-a-back, say ing reproachfully, "You are very, very wicked to disappoint Tony. Yea, the plan was wholly his; he waited to see you before settling anything." Then followed much explosive laughter. Un der coyer of it AJUe ocajn-il, Uncle Bill was a bird of passage en route to South America In a business way. He left behind a Tony so deso late thnt Alice's heart softened toward him in spite of his mischief. A bad boy. inn a mean oue, she decided, sigh ing unaccountably. Yet more unac countably she fell In a way of com forting him with cardboard, colors and brushes in the den where she amused herself by turning out such small deer as place cards, Christmas cards and Illuminated mottoes for Christmas and Easter. Alice found herself in a sore strait wholly of her own making. She had meaut to refuse Lawyer Eads he wus a coming nmn, one who would certainly be rich and possibly famous. She had known all along she did not love him, yet had temporized her father, her aunts, the fairy godmother approved him highly. Tony's planning had maddened her she had committed her self tacitly, to be sure, but felt she must go on with it. Ail her courage bad uvailed was to say to her wooer: "Wait until October now I can neither promise nor refuse." So he came walking on air, now and then, giving himself a gait so proprietory, it made her writhe. Her sole comfort was to write in an untidy journal her wretchedness, her regret for the haste thnt had hampered her. Not a word of Uncle Bill but she saw his eyes, his smile, between the lines. She must hold to he$ freedom until he had come and gone. After that the deluge Its outcome, she could not guess. There was a curious change in Tony he shut himself in the den, worked there furiously to judge by blotches and splotches over floor end table, but Alice hardly noted them her con sciousness was fixed forward in a week Uncle Bill would be home. By) almost a miracle he came two days earlier. Lawyer Eads graciously hurry ing him out In his own car. Alice got white at sight of them together, but nobody noticed the fact. Tony had the floor he was shouting shrilly: '.'Uncle Bill : Uncle Bill ! See what I maked you, Alice's picture, In her own writin' book. I knew she wouldn't mind" with thnt thrusting upon his rnsoin.T Uncle lilll something more many-colored than was Joseph's coat. Alice snatched it away, crying: "You you must not look neither of you." Then fell In a faint. Before she came out of it, two men had read her diary, but, of course, had acted as became perfect gentlemen. Said Eads: "It is providential." Speech wus beyond Uncle Bill but his eyes spoke his heart. f ct a tc mirxtrc J. x i. j. a a-. vv KJ IN BRIEF W0 r j Mrs. Eva Ferracr TOV.N OF CORPUS CHRIST1 City Is Built on Narrow Strip of Sand Which Separates Fresh Water Bay From One of Salt. Sweeping through a narrow channel between two great Islands of sand, the blue Mexican gulf waves spread out Into the broad expanse of Corpus Christi buy, to be girdled together again at the mouth of the Nueces river. The river Itself meanders through the broad and fertile plains of Texas until it nears the salt water, when, as if in Imitation of the mighty ocean It is soon to Join, the stream widens Into a great circular loop, a bay of fresh water separated from the salt by a long tongue of sand. Along tlie narrow beach men have reared great buildings of stone and brick. But, rising from it, towers the higher ground, crowned with homes and churches. A boulevard runs along the brow of the bluff, a boulevurd from which one looks out over the roofs of banks and office buildings ucross the blue of the hay to the mis ty shore line of distant Islands. On the narrow strip of sand and soil that fi rms a barrier between the fresh wa ter of one bay and the salt water of the other, are more homes and many places where people laugh and play. Behind the City He fields of cotton, grazing land and groves of orange trees or verdant gardens filled with vegetables. Tiny wild flowers dot the green grass of the cattle land like liv ing stars. Low, scraggllng cedars stretch their crooked branches toward the sea. White vrtvxta berries of mis tletoe glisten through the darker green ef the live oak, while strands of Span ish moss sway with each passing breeze. Close Quarters. In some amateur theatricals a fugi tlra from Justice was supposed to es cape from his pursuers by coneeallng himself under a table. The table was small, while the fugitive was some what lengthy. The commander of the pursuing party rushed onto the stage and fell ver the legs of the man for whom he was searching. Picking himself up snd rubbing his shins, he caused roars of laughter by exclaiming In dramatic style: "Ha, tht villain has eluded us again." . Salem. Governor Pierce Saturday appointed Dr. H. E.
