Some years ago Hetty Green paid a visit, with her daughter Sylvia, to the Connecticut village of Pomfrct. They stayed at an Inn conducted by Miss Vinton. On the evening of her urrlval Mrs. Green sent Sylvia to the attic for a packet of love letters which Sylvia had that day received from vari ous admirers who had never seen her and who "loved her for herself alone." The room they had taken was on the top floor, because Mrs. Green believed that n syndicate had been formed to kidnap her daughter nnd herself for the sake of their wealth. The letters she rend nlnnd for the diversion of the other feminine guests assembled befi it the tt e. When the day eatae to depart It was rainy. "How milch will It cost If Sylvia nnd I use your enrrlage to the station?" Mrs. Green said to Miss Vinton. "Twenty-five cents. But It's nn open buckhonrd and you'd get wet." "How much would It cost If we used the station wagon? "Fifty cents." Mrs. Green looked at Sylvia's he draggled bonnet nnd dress and then nt her own clothing. "Well, Sylvia, I guess we hnven't got anything on that the rain would hurt. I guess we'll take your buck board, Miss Vinton." . NEW FIELD OPEN TO U. S.

On the word of a decipherer of an cient records there was, In the year 'Mi It. ('., a strike of the musicians' union In Home. The officials of Home. It appears, thought that the musicians should play without pay at a forthcom ing festival in honor of Jupiter. The musicians thought otherwise, nnd al though Rome, then engaged In one of I he Satnnltt wars, had little money to spend for music, declined not to "do their bit" by performing without pay. Apparently the argument that they were really playing for Jupiter himself was tried without effect. So the city ntllclnls decided on an appeal to public opinion; they evolved n stratagem by which they decoyed the striking mu sicians to the scene of the festival, nnd. with all Home looking ex;, i tniitly tit them, the musician changed their minds nnd there was "music ils usual."
