Colonel (jreahaui, Htw.'kbrukur, turn
eil uentleinnii fanner to pnaluee new
rarletles of fruits.
.Valine Kiowa aotne two-colored ap
ples, but when you uk her to ndd two
aillltionn! colors she wants time to
think the matter over. Every experi
ment was a failure, bat that only made
the colonel and hi gardener tlia mora
determined, cs)ecially the gardener.
It was his duly a an employee
to qlve Ilia master nil his Ideas, but he
made au oxeuptiuu In till one casu.
Ilo clung to It with dogged obstinacy,
but he kept It as secret as tho grave.
He might have clung to It n year or o
longer had not the colonel tieeome im
patient. Ilo said something one Juno
day about giving up the experiments,
and the gardener replied that he would
have some news for hlin next day. IU
inked Ihe broker li come home an
hour curlier than usual mid to come
directly to tho large farm Imrn.
At the hour named the colonel was
there. He had scarcely entered the
bum when he revel veil a crack on the
bend that irimle liini unconscious for
the next ipianer of an hour, When In
came t lie had been sKlpped t." coat,
vot nnd lie and w:ti l.oflnd liuud and
foot. He had not caught sight of hH
niwillant before being atruek. but now
found the giirdener hovetlng over hlin
Willi u murderous look on his face.
"Will you tell mi? whnj this means,
Henry?" asked Ihe victim.
Yes, air. I have finally found how
to grow four-colored apples. It Inn
been a long time, but I have ntriick
It nt last. I hope to have fifty bushels
on the market this fall."
"Well, let's hear about It."
"All the apple trees are now In bios,
mm. Tho red ones nrc nil right, anil
tho yellow ones are all right, anil I
have found a way to make the blue
and gni'ii ones all right. I have sim
ply to sprinkle theni with the blood of
a man wearing side whiskers. A drop
of blood to a blossom will do the trick,
and once the apples alnrt tn growing
Umt way they will continue."
Now, the colonel bad a growth of
side whiskers that were tho envy of
Wall alroet nnd a matter of Joy to
himself. Whenever you saw tho colo
nel you saw his whiskers Ilo might
forget his commutation ticket now n-el
then, but never l is v h'-'te. Tho

familiarity, and Ihce win a covert
threat behind the wnnla. Ho was at
first Inclined to bluster, but another
look Into tho gardener's fnee satisfied
hlin that tho man had become crazy.
Ho therefore changed his tactics and
quietly said:
"All right, Ilonry. We will go up to
the on-hard and experiment. I am de
lighted to find that you have achieved
success at last." '
"Hut how can you go when I want
your blood?" asked tho man. "You
see, you are tho only man around here
with side whiskers. If the coachman
or the butler had 'em, that would do,
but I hey haven't, you know. They tire
fine ouiM, colonel line ones."
And Chapman bent down and ten
derly caressed lite iron gray side
whiskers that floated nway from each
cheek and wore gently attrred now
and then by the June breezes blowing
Into the open door. Never had another
man on t tils enrlh except tho barber
dared to lay bis sacrilegious hands on
those reverenced obJeetH of tho money
center of the world.
"Itut we will look up pome one else.
said the colonel as ho felt a sinking of
tho heart. "I know of several men
Willi side whiskers, nnd 1 w ill coax one
of theni home with me tomorrow."
"Hut 1 must have the bloml today,
colonel. Itcsidcs, for this first experi
ment we must have Ihe nicest sort ot
whiskers. There la nothing In tho state
of .New York to compare with yours.
The papers have said so over and over
again. How soft they are! How' lux
uriantly they growl How the breeze
