i ALL SHOULD HAVE A GARDEN
Healt.: and Profit in the Cultivation
of the Ground, Even Though
Plot Is Small.
The "city farmer," as they humor
ously railed him, was a very great
help, not only to himself, but to the
country, during the war-garden time,
uud the experience he gained from his
war-garden activities then has since
helped Idm In the tight to win ou'
against the high cost of living.
He has profited l>y that experience
In every beneficial way, and the best
of all is that he fell in love with his
garden, and has been in love with It
ever since.
He found health there, and more of
home happiness; and the profit was
then, as It will be now, that he didn't
have to take the market basket from
home.
To the town dweller, who perhaps
hasn't given mueh attention to garden
ing. the Albany ((la.) Herald says:
"It's great to have a garden, even
though it produce few vegetables. It's
great to have a place for outdoor ex
ercise—a place in which to turn up
the fragrant earth w ith a spading forle
level it with a rake and lay it off with
a trench hoe. Some folk say it's bet
ter exercise than golf or tennis, though
on that question we do not presume to
sit In judgment. A man can work in
his garden before sunrise, when golf
links ore too wet with the dew to be
used, and Ids garden Is a whole lot
nearer home than the golf club.
"And there is no reason why Mr.
Towndweller cannot have u garden
with real vegetables In It Tf he will
give a little practical thought aud dill
gent application to Its preparation and
care."—Atlanta Constitution.

CROSSED WIRES
By CORONA REMINGTON.
Ltvi). 1 a JO. t»y McClur* Newspaper Syndicate.)
No one had ever loved as deeply
| ns those two—James Wilcox and
Constance llelinson. They looked
Into each others' eyes In rapture and
for the fortieth time that evening
made the same remark—with slight va
riations.
"No one, dearest; no one on earth
has ever felt It as we have," he told
her. "I'm sure we have not only
known each other all our lives, but
from the beginning of time—clear bacl:
to the lirst day."
"And it shall be this way to the
end of time," she sighed softly Into
his ear.
After a long and tender parting kiss,
almost sad because It was the lust, he
left her, never to return, they both
knew—until the morrow.
And thus the days sped by and were
as minutes' to the adoring couple who
were totally unconscious of the world
about tlii-iu. At last one bright Sunday
In June Constance said casually:
"Jimmy, darling, my sister Aggie,
the one you've never seen, came home
from college last night. She's out now,
but I want you to stay to dinner and
meet her."
"Sure I will," he replied. "But what
do 1 care about sister Aggie? She'll
only try to monopolize my very own
est—" Lfe kissed her again.
Later they were summoned to the
dining room and James was introduced
to Aggie, lie took his eyes olY Con
stance long enough to glance at the
newcomer while being presented when
suddenly Ids knees shook beneath him
and he thanked heaven when he was
safely seated. Aggie was. exactly like
Constance—only more so, and she had
a good many things Constance lacked,
too. Constance's eyes were wonder,
ful. Aggie's more wonderful. Con
stance's nose was pretty, Aggie's beau
tiful ; and so it went.
When he awakened from the lirst
shock a feeling of unspeakable re
morse came over him. As soon as. he
decently could he got away, mumbling
some excuse about a business engage
1 nu-nt.
All that flight ns ho toscsii ami
turned It was Aide's picture tlmt kept
smiling nt hiiu in tliu darkness uml
not Constance's. In a panic lie would
close his eyes to try to slui: out the
vision, but always it was there. Ami
the next day lie was to briny Con
stance over to take dinner with his
family' Slie Would be sure to notice

would see—yet it was impossible to
got out of it,
At dinner the following evening
lifter lie had Introduced his father and
brother to Constance, his motliei hav
ing already- met her, he broke the new*
of the business trip.
"Ilarry, you'll have to entertain
Conny and look after her while I'm
ijone. I've bought tickets to 'The
Shepherd's C: II.' You must take her
and think of me when you do it. old
chap." he ended with heartfelt pathos.
(teaching home at night lie went
straight to his room and dropped into
a chair, a morose heap of bewildered
Introspection. Ages later he was
con is of bis brother standing be
side him In Ids smoking jacket.
"That thing's a beastly color," was
.lames' only greeting as he gland at
the offending garment, including the
occupant, in his hostile stare. Ilarry
made no comment, but switched off
the light.
"What the dickens did you do that
for?" roared his brother.
"ISecause I want to tell you some
thing. and—I have to say it in the
dark."
"Hurry up then, do," he growled in
reply.
".lames. I swear I hid it. I swear I
did," Harry began in a frenzy.
"Hid what, you lunatic? Are yon
daft?"
"Ilid it unill Conny broke out cry
ing last night and confessed she didn't
love you any more."
"What?" gasped James in a hiss
ing whisper.
"Yes," Harry continued, "and whr-ti
she had made It perfectly plain and I
realized It was all up between you, 1
simply couldn't keep It In any more."
Speechless, James Jumped out of
the chair and blundered toward the
door In the dark.
"Walt! Where are you going?"
called Harry. "You wouldn't do any
thing to Conny—would you?"
."Conny, nothing!" answered Janus.
"I'm going to make an appointment
with Aggie. She's more like Conny
than Conny herself Is, but how the
devil did Cupid ever get his wires
crossed like that?"
