Selecting Furniture
In selecting a piece of furniture for
the living room, diulnif room, or hod
room, one should see that its color and
design harmonize with other perman
ent pieces In the room It should lie
well constructed, for poorly-built fur
nltuio is expensive tit any price. Avoid
highly polished furniture Unless the
the room is very large, do not buy
massive pieces.
Seed Corn Good
Most of tho seed corn grown in Ne
braska in 1010 will probably grow well,
agronomy specialists at the University
of Nobrasha say However, some sam
ples havo been tested that gavo a low
percent germination
Where com is still In the car, farm
ers will probably not have diniculty
In plclduguutsatlsfactorysced. When
purchasing seed corn, ot.o should re
quite a germination test.
Use of vnrietles that are well adapt
cd to the locality N recommended. All
experimental evldonce as well as the
experience of funnels indicate that
theio is souiu risk in bringing seed
corn from long distances, as .such corn
of. mi yields less than corn which has
been grown in the locality for. some
time. For that reason it Is advisable
to ulit'tlti locally grown seed.
When It Is Better.
Tho way boiiio people when Micro's

Is amusing.

THE BEST MAN WINS

"You have heard of the place paved
with good Intentions, I'aullne, dear I
nm ii f raid ninny bricks nr laid to my
credit, for my Intentions arc nlwuys
good hut fall of accomplishment. I
menn to write, but somehow never do.
Tills time you must forgive me, for I
am most unhappy. And my unhnppl
ness camo from out n clear sky. Since
then I have sounded the depths. Fa
ther is obdumlc Mother sides with
him.
"It Is nothing but plg-hended obsti
nacy In father. Anyone looking nt
Howard would know he Is n gentle
man. He certainly Is good to look at,
and, of course, I think the sun rises
and sets In him. Hut father will not
listen when I tell him we are engaged.
Hu merely says : 'When you care for it
man, Jane, you can marry him as soon
us ho nsks you, hut so long ns I live
a niiikc-bcllevo one .shall never havo
you.'
"duly 10th 1 thought my letter hud
reached you but have Just found It In
my portfolio. When I wrote a month
ago I thought myself encompassed by
misery, but my feelings wen as noth
ing to what they havo been the past
few days,
"Kttt her told me I must break off
my engagement; th.'t I should not see
Howard again. I stormed. He mere
ly said, '.Tune, put on your hat and take
a drive with your mother and inc.
That was all.
"I told myself I wouldn't. Hut I
hnd never disobeyed father In my life
and wo started on that drive. It wits
a long one. It took us three days to
reach this place; a little farm at the
end of nowhere, thirty miles from the
nearest railroad station! There Is no
post olllce, no telephone, no cart
"July 'JOth Pauline, dear, It Is a
comfort to chat with you, even If my
letter has to wait forever and forever
to reach the olllce. I do get so hungry
for home news. Mother has written
nice, but not ti word from dad, which
shows plainly that I am still in dis
grace. Today I'eter told me he might
go In the station for mall. If he didn't,
he thought Pan Isliam would take my
letters. Whoever Is Dan Isliam? I
haven't M'on a man, except I'eter, since
father left me here. I wonder If he
Is us ohl and wrinkled as I'eter."
"July Jlst He canie before I had
finished my letter. Just an ordinary,
fiirincr soil of person. He has nice
eyes. I saw that, nlthnimh he turned
llu-'ii away nt once. I wonder what he
tlinmrht of me?
"August 10th I am seeing u good
deal of D:ti Ihum. He lives on the
v.ext plnce, wherever that Is.
"lie isn't ti bit like Howard, but. he
knows where to llnd the loveliest wood
llowers, and this mnruliu: showed me
the cutest little opn-iiiiiiithed baby
birds; mocking blrdvtr wld they
were.
August 21th Dun came this morn
ing mill asked me to wall; to King's
Creek with him. I don't know what
got Into me, but I felt I must talk of
Howard. I told of our engagement,
nml lmw determined fat her Is that It
.shall be broken oil', but Hint I was de
termined to marry him when I came of
age.
"'Anil when will that be?' he asked.
'Your appearance this morning sug
gests nothing so much ns that of a
pretty spoiled child of twelve.'
'"Spoiled child!' I gasped. I could
not control my voice, su 1 turned my
back on ltlin. As I -did so I caught
sight of something that turned me cold
with fright, coming toward us with
lowered head was a great black bull.
"With a shuddering sob I caught
hold of Dan and hid my fnco against
his shoulder.
'"Why. child!' Then (ho low mut
ter of that awful iinlnial luado him
turn suii!'nly. Will you believe me,
I'aullne, Dan Isham laughed, but lie
didn't let me go. lie put his hand un
der my chin and made me look nt him.
What he taw lu my eyes I do not
know. What I saw In his made me
again hld my face against that old,
fad'sl blue shirt. Kvcn through my
fear 1 was j;hul father had told How
ard Chandler I .should not marry 111 til.
"I did not mind Dan's laughing,
there was such comfort in feeling his
arms about mo, but fop propriety's
sake I tried to slip from them, when
ho said:
"Mane, that steer Is one of I'eter's
ore team, and Is us gentle as a lamb.
Truly 1 am thankful he put In an ap
pearance Just now, for I have been
wondering ever since ymi began talk
ing of Chandler, how long I would have
to wait before you found out 'you loved
niu Instead. For you do love mo. There
Is no question about my feeling for
j ou. I surrendered the llr.-t time I
saw you.'
"When we at last reached the house'
whom should we llnd but father, and
he shook Dan's hand as If he had
known him all his life. It seems Dan
had studied law in the olllce and had
been associated more or less with dad
ever since. I don't know why I had
noor met him. It Just happened so,
I suppose.
"Of course, Dan didn't rest until he
had told father about ourselves. When
he llulshed, dad looked at me with a
twinkle In his eyes that niade me
suspicious, hut lie said very solemnly:
" 'You can have her, Dan. You sure
ly are a man after my own heart'.
