BARBARA,
"THE ALMOSr
GIRL -
By j. k. McCarthy
(a), Veabladar, Paat a Ca.)
TKKUAPS ths fact tl.at she was
J almost bora rich bad something
A. to ao wun 11, ner laiber iiavtng
lost all bis money about three
weeks before Uarbara lloltua came
Into this world. Or perhaps It Started
when the eager watchers discovered
her bslr to be slinost red snd ber eyes
te be almost grsy. As she grew elder
ber engaging little nose came nearer
and nearer to ths angle called Irish,
snd the points a here ber suites fo
cused In her cheeks came nearer and.
nearer to being out-and-out dimples.
And Barbara In due time was almost
short, and almost plump. Bo, no mat
ter how the thing stsrted, It was nat
ural enough that ber best friends
shoule come to csll her "Almost Bar
bara','' and that people to whom she
barely nodded on the street should
come to know ber ss "the Almost
Girl."
The name csme to ber so early snd
nnuly tbst It may actually have ex
erted an Influence ever her character.
There was ths time she came within
sn ace of pulling the teacher's hair.
The provocation, s shaking, was
peat, and Ilartiara had lifted eager
bands to within sn Inch of the tar
nished blood locks when suddenly,
perhaps without knowing exactly why,
ahe let her bsnda fall. I'eople who
witnessed this incident marked It
down as quite characteristic of "ths
Almost Girl."
liut the duy ah nearly kissed Jim
Brown, the tall young man ber broth
er brought home from school for a
holiday that was ths beginning of a
new life for Ilarbara. It wss that
dsy, or rather that atarry evening,
that her nlrkname, "Almost," began
te tske on a new snd vital meaning.
It waa Just Barbsrs's personal ren
dition of the old story, the stuff of old
songs. Intermission st the dance, sat
in slippers on velvet lawn, a maple
shielding from faint but InqnlslUve
stsrllght. Tli strong snn wss around
ber waist and seemed for an instsnt
quite properly there. It turned her
half round and drew her close. Sb
was seventeen no wonder ber lips
quivered ss her face llfttd np toward
bis Jim Brown's I Time bsd nothing
te do with It, anr dlstsnre. The kiss
wss within s mere shadow of a
thought of bsppenlng. The moment
couMn't hsve continued so much as a
flssh without becoming, wbat It did
not become, a kiss. For Barbara
turned her face, pulled desperately
snd wss free. The kiss hsd only al
most happened.
Barbara was s little flushed and Jim
Brown a trifle fluttered when the pair
returned to the dancing floor. A sharp
observer could note easily that some
thing wss amiss. And there were
Sharp observers enough smoeg ths
dancers.
It wss ten minutes later thst tw
of the fellows got JUn Brown cor
nered oa the porch.
"Hsd a wslk with Barbara Holtoo,
didn't your
"Ye.-
"She almost kissed yoo, didn't shr
111 IT, bsngl Jim's long arms shot
eut. Biff, bang, bump I One of the
fellows wss down, calling "Enough."
The other was making a record across
the perch. Jim Brown himself wore a
curious expression, a mixture of rage
and mystification.
A half hour later, evidently with
leas rage and more curiosity, Jim
sought out the two fellows where they
sst smoking on a bench. They looked
np at him uncertainly, but hi first
words stilled sny fear they might
have bad ss to his Intention.
"Excuse me, fellows. Msybe I wss
a bit hasty. Tou sounded disrespect
ful, snd there's not going to be sny
disrespect shown Miss Ilolton while
I'm on my feet. But msybe you didn't
mesa It like It sounded. WhsC did
you mean"
So they told him about the nick
name, and the reputation. And with
in an hour everyone tn the crowd
knew the whole story. It wss a great
Joke, everybody thought, and a nat
ural climax to Barbara's seventeen
yesrs of living up to ber reputation.
Barbara blushed when she found
the story wss out. Anybody could
see ahe was sngry. "As Ions as I
live," she announced, "I'll never speak
to anybody who calls me thst awful
name."
As for Jim Brown, shs refused even
te look at him, no matter bow many
people, Including her own brother, ex
plained to her that Jim hadn't said a
word. Indeed they told her that he
had punched the two fellows who
started the whole thing. These fel
lows themselves, contrite, came np to
show their marks, snd to explsln that
ths truth was Jumped art, and came
out without being told at all. But
nothing mattered to Barbara except
ths obvious facta. She hadn't told
evidently Jim Brown had I
There wss an end to It, and Jftn
Brown, whom everybody had. grown to
like, left town the next morning, look
ing as though h were stepping off the
edge of the earth. And people ssy he
gsve Barbara's brother a fine talking
to for not telling him more about his
wonderful sister snd warning him
about ber nickname.
I Of course Barbara, having been
known all her life as, the "Almost
Girl," couldn't get rid of thst name
by a mere rash assertion. People
were careful to rail ber Barbara for
a week er two. Then, one by one all
her friends went back te she eld
nlcknsue, and Bsrbars, In spite of
ber declaration, went right en speak
ing te them.
But during the year that followed
there waa a noticeable change la the
"Almost Girl." She grew up, mind
snd all. And Barbara, grown up, was
quite a delightful person. Two or
thres of the young business men found
her so, and must bsv told her so, be
cius they paid ber a let of attention.
When on of them, aa earnest, pless
snt chap, went sround grinning for
sbout a week snd then suddenly be
ams ss glum ss a door post, It wss
obvious that Barbsra wss up to ber
tricks sgsln. She bsd almost prom
ised to uisrry III in.
Nobody knew bow the psrtlsl rec
onciliation csme sbout, but a year
sfter the niglit of the "slmost kiss"
Jus Brown arrived la town. He wss
with Barbara's brother sgsln, snd now
snd then during the week thst fol
lowed Barbara sod be were seen to
gether. Jim smiled his heartiest, and
on might have thought he waa alttlng
on the top of the earth, I'eople no
ticed that Barbara, too, grew more
cheerful as the dsjs panted. Alt this
wss mighty Interesting to sn onlooker,

would live down ber nickname after

Wren Idea That Birit
Poiton Captivt Young
A belief, that seems as persistent
today as when Hood wrote "The Plea
of the Midsummer rabies," Is that
parent birds will deliberately poison
their rsptlv young. A correspondent
In a London paper practically begs the
question by Inquiring whst poison la
used for the purpose. Ha goes ea te
st:
1 bsve known several case. ' Re
cently a man took asms young gold
finches ent of a chestnut tree here and
cared them. The old bird came and
fed them. Me put tbeia In bla cottage
at night and put thm eut at S a. m.
Thia went on for over a week. Then
one morning sfter tbe old ones bsd
fed them they sU died."
The reply given Is to ths effect thst,
though there bsve been msny state
menu made with regard to bird poi
soning their young In slmilsr clrcum
stsncea, there does not appear to be a
morsel of scientific evidence tn rapport
of the theory. "It 1 difficult," the
writer remarks, "to Imagine how clr
cumstsnces would srls In nstur that
would lead te a development of such
sn Instinct, and those birds wblcb
killed their young would hive no de
scendants to perpetuate their habit
If the owner of fledglings, dying In
suspicious clrcumstsnces, would sub
ject the victims to a post-mortem, light
might be shed upon the subject It la
difficult to conjecture wbat poison
could be used for such a purpose, as
young birds are fed mainly on Insects,
and the older ones delight In the so
called "poisonous" berries. This being
the esse, we, ourselves, should be In
clined to acquit the parents and bring
In a verdict "Death due to natural
causea"
Snake At Unwutly
A snsks that found Its way Into a
boUow tree en the farm of Loa Atkin
son nesr UaytL Mo and then fed on
birds and other prey grew so fst It
could not worm Itself eut of the bole
through which It entsred several year
ago. It bad Just been killed after an
accidental discovery by the small son
et Atkinson, ssys a dlspstcb to the
New Iork World.
Tbe tree wss blown serosa tb top
of a barn during a storm and the boy
discovered the snske. Atkinson bsd
to chop off the side of tbe log to ret

ROADS!!
BIG VALUE) OF GOOD
ROADS IN ARKANSAS
The vslue of good roads bss beea
clearly demonstrated to the residents
of Phillips county, Arkansas, by the
recent completion there of 01 miles of
concrete pavement. The county l
largely dependent for ll prvre
untin the cotton and iwh pviau
crops. There are two sessons when
cotton needs extr labor, formerly
It wss the practice to hire negro fam
ilies temporarily, housing them os tbe
plantation. Nowartsjs It Is hsrd to
And families for this temporary work.
Last year the cotton crop waa saved
by hauling bus and truck losds of
women snd children from Helens te
the cotton fields each morning and
taking them bsck thst night Labor
ers would work thst wsy who would
not live upon the plsntstlon. With
out tli concrete rosds this transporta-
tlen would have been Impossible.
l f.iiniT rnrs sweet potatoes wer
tal.nu 10 uiun.it as soon ss they were
dag, because If ttiey wer stored to
wslt for higher prices tbe roads would
get so rough the potatoes would be
bruised and spoiled In transport Now
plsnters bsve big storage rooms and
sell potatoes when the price Is best,
gpttlng double whst they list re
ceived during the summer montha
Traveling over the concrete pave
ment a truck will haul 100 crates of
sweet potstoes to town, making four
trips of 25 miles each s day. Before
the pavement was built It would bsvs
required four mule teams to do th
same work now done by the one truck.
Phillips county, ssts Sebsstlan
8traub of Ilelena, Ark, In describing
the benefits of the new road system In
th Concrete Highway Magazine, lies
tn the crotch formed by the conflu
ence of the Mississippi snd White
rivers.
"Th soil," be explslns. "Is sn sl
luvlal deposit vsrylng from a sandy
loam to gumbo. The lower end of the
Country la subject to overflow by bsck
water from the Mississippi. Original
ly tli land was entirely covered by a
dens growth of timber. Lumbering
first removed the valuable trees, then
some firms were cleared snd plsnted
to cotton or corn. This Istter devel
opment hss occurred within the lest
ten yesrs, and there still sre great
trsrts of unclesred land which. If de
veloped, could be made Into some of
the richest cotton plsntations In ths
state.
"On drawback haa been the diffi
culty of getting t the more remote
corners of the county. The eartn
roads, rslsed but little above th lur
roundlng low land, ar often Impassa
ble to loaded vehlctea for eight months
In the year. During that time people
go te nd from town on the train or
horseback. Even in good weather all
mule wer required to pull a two or
three-ton load ever an earth road te
the nearest railway aiding and a
12-mlle trjp to town required th
whole day. On that account tnuch of
the good farm land lay as the lumber
man hsd left It covered with small
trees nd underbrush."
Hi new 61 -mile concrete highway
which connects Helena with the out
lying ectlnns is 14 feet wide, but ea
rnrrrs It It 19 feet in width, to con
form with standards ef the United
Rut bureu of roada Th pavement
la six Inches thick.
In the pt nearly all cotton was.
hsuled to the nearest railway aiaing
and shipped directly to Helens. Now,
however, fsrmer csn hsul forty or
fifty miles to Helens, losd their cotton
on t bost bound for New Orleans and
ssve 20 per cent of the rail freight
charges, or sbout $3,050 .W to
10,000 ton cargo.
Influence of Hard Roads
inftiionro of naved hlshways Is
reflected In better farmtlig condltiona
Those farmers fortunate enough to be
fiM a newlv nsved road ran turn
from the ataple farm products snd de
velop those types of fsrming wnicn
bring better and quicker returns. On
the unimproved roads truck gardening
Is ususlly limited to t rsdlus of 2 or
8 miles from the cljy msrket. But
with the comlnc of paved roada and
the use of trucka thia radius Is extend
ed to 10, 13 snd In some esses 20 miles
from the market. Naturally the value
of the land In this rsdlus Is consider-
ably Increased.
