Is no good reason why a Nebraska
man can't aay "How" to huj Kanem
neighbor occasionally , . BO , acting on
this idea , your hayaood correspondent
struck across the line recently , and , as
lie didn't come hero to draw invidioua
comparisons , the least ho can say is
that ho has fallen among pleasant
neighbors , who offer him plenty to
cat and can show him well cultivated
Holds of line rich soil. As au'ricul
tural nnd stock-growing states , Kan
sas and Nebraska nre equal , neither
having any precedence , neither luck
ing any advanlageaand when I make
this statement no reader can accuse
mo of being "stuck-up" about my
own httlo corn patch in Nebraska , but
I reserve the right to like it best , as n
mutter of course , Both stated are
being rapidly settled up the great
civilizor of Kansas being unquestion
ably the Atchison , Topeka is tSanlu
Fo railroad ,
Kansas can thank the A. T. &S. P.
for much of the import unco olio wields
to-dny and tins remark incidentally
loads mo into the great advertising do
paitmont the medium that first in
duced the road to the world at the
centennial of the A. T. & S. P , pre
sided over by Mr. W. P. White , the
general passenger and ticket agent of
this road at Topoka. Millions of
pamphlets arc yearly sent out from
hero , and thousands of immigrants
come back. Mr.lMo is not ifi but
instead I mot his chief head clerks , Mr.
II , B. Kooler , Mr. W. B. Souther and
Mr. J. II. McLean , all of whom ex
tend the courtesies of the oillco in a
neat and agreeable manner. Mr , Vf.

"Do not slug him , papa ! "
Gwendolen Mahatly said these
words quickly nnd with an earnest
ness that showed how her whole heart
was wrapped up in the young man in
whoso behalf they were npokon. It
was a beautiful evening in Juno
rosy-cheeked Juno montti of llowors ,
and song , and gas-bills , The sun ,
, h.it golden brewed monarch of the
aklos , had sunk to rest beneath a
; roat bank snowy-topped clouds that
were piled athwart the western sky ,
ind tlio few roHcato gleams of awiftly-
y dying light that still shot up from
jenoatli the horizon only served to in
; onsify if poasiblo the ruddy glory of
departing day. At the Castle Muhaf-
: y no sound broke the 7:40 : o'clock si
once save the occasional note of crick
et beneath the flagstones and the low
twittering of the swallows as they
icatlod boaeath the caves and chirped
each other a sleepy good-night.
Oscar Ilodingoto was Adolbort Ma
laffy's adopted son. Years ago , i when
Gwendolen was' but a baby and the
proud father had gene out one event
ing for njbuckot of soothing sirup to
keep her froin "howling the roof of the
liouso off , he had found Oscar , then a
boy of 7 , trying to rob a blind man.
Ho had taken the little waif homo ,
brought him up as his own child , and
now , at flvo-and-twcnty , Oscar was on
the Board of Trade , lie had resumed
the old buslne.ts.
During all those years that Gwondo
Ion and Oscar had their hearts a pas
siotmto love , almost , wicked in its in
tensity , and not two months a onu
they had plighted their troth and
sealed their vows with a largo tooth
starting kind that made Gwendolen
club herself for all she had been miss
ing , It waa the a vowel of this accent
compact that had caused grim-visagcc
old MahaiFy to rear his horrid fronl
and declare that it should never bo
that sooner than too his daughter
wedded to one whoso pedigree no mar
know he would lire the trusting lover
o'er the picket fence. Ho would hava
followed his harsh words with a blow ,
but Gwendolen had stopped him by say
ingin thocoldly calniftono with whiol
she could BO well express her anger
the words with which this chapto
opens.
"No , papa , " slio said , when tin
violence of the old man's warth hat
in some measure abated , "you mus
not strike Oscar , for in a few , shor
months I shall become hia wife , "
"Dost know what thou art'faaying
child ] " said the old man what thou
ait doingi"
"Yes , " replied the ijirl , "I know al
about it. 1 know that I love Oaca
tenderly , deeply , devotedly ; and tha
without the Bunshino of his smile m ;
lifo would be as drear and desolate a
a cake-jar after I have toyed with its
contents. I know that in the fall
when the loaves are turning brownam
heavy flannels are being Ashed up
from the bottoms of trunks , I am to
bo married to Oscar to place my pure
young heart in the keeping of oni
who has promised to cherish anc
and guard my happiness and inyos
my lifo with the hate of a love as sacred - 1
cred ns it ia true , until the silent mos- I f
sender of death shall part us forever !
with his icy and invisible hand " and 4 }
with those words the fair young girl
placed her arms around Oscar'a neck ,
nnd lot her head with its mass of sun- '
ny-gold curls fall trustfully on his .
shoulder. i .
"So you have given this young man
your heart , my lassj" said the old man
in cold , sneering tones. .
"Yes , father , I have , " waa Gwendo
len's reply , "and I shall never repent
my notion. " }
"You had much bettor , " said her i
Father , while a balnful light shot from
his eyes , "havo kept your heart and
given him your liver , for its Httlo '
need you'll have for the latter if you
Upend upon him to furnish food to ,
< cep it going" and , with a demon
iko laugh , ho started over town to gee

Two summers have come and gono.
Gwendolen , a lojk of happy contont-
nent in her face , sits in a tapestried
room of the Castle MahaiFy singing a
nother-song to a babe whoso big blue
eyes wander wonderingly around the
ipartmont , and whoso chubby Httlo
lands tug heartily at the sides of the
cradle in which it is lying. Presently
3scar comes into the room and kisses
Gwendolen.
"Do you know , dear , that it is two
years to-day since wo wore married ? "
"Yes. sweetie , " is the reply.
"And do you remember what your
'athor said that evening when ho first
earned of our engagement ? "
"Yes , Darling. "
"Wo have boon Hying wioh hint
over since our marriage , have wo
not ? '
"Yes , my lovo. "
"Tho old man has a great head.
Gwendolen , " said Oscar. "Ho sized
no up exactly. Ho is getting old
now , and wo must never leave him. "
"You bet wo mustn't , " waa Gwen
dolen's reply , "if wo want anything
