A small brook glides through the southern edge 'of the village with just murmur enough to lull to one's repose and the occasional sharp staccato of an open cutout or the siren scream of the trains is al most the only sound that breaks in upon the uni- - form tranquility. From the peaceful'atmbsphere of the place the stranger's attention is .instantly attracted to the progressive spirit; manifested -by the busi ness men ofk Oakland and'the civic pride ex hibited by all of its. population. ,The air of rush and bustle abounds.

Holding a Husband Adele Garrison's New Phase of Revelations of a Wife Of course I saw clearly what little Mrs. Durkee's request, or rather demand, meant. The only way in which Dicky could change the reservations so that Rita Brown would not be compelled tooccupy an outside berth while the otner women of the wedding party were ensconced in drawing rooms some thing unthinkable from the hos pitable standard of the Fairfax sis ters was for him to give either Miss Brown or Mrs. Durkee quar ters in the drawing room which had been provided for Mother Graham, the baby and me. The men of the party, Alfred Durkee,' Major Grant- land, my tather and Dicky had berths in the two adjoining cars which held the drawing rooms and therefore could not aid in solving the unexpected problem presented by little Mrs. Durkee's prejudice. That the problem was distinctly "up tjv me" instead of Dicky was another thing that I did not need a magnifying glass to discover. There were no more drawing rooms to be had, and the invitation to either my little neighbor or the girl she dis liked so heartily must come, from my mother-in-law or from me. That Mother Graham did not l.iean to give it I could see by her pursed lips and disapproving eyes. But little Mrs. Durkee expected it, and I braced myself for the conflict whfth I feared was inevitable. Mrs. Durkee Protests. '"Dicky can't do anything," I be gan my explanation apologetically, "for you see those were the last staterooms to be had" "Fiddlesticks!" My mother-in-law's . interruption was short and pithy. "There's .always a last minute drawing room to be had if one knows how to go about it." "You don't mean," my little neighbor's voice rose., excitedly, "that Rita Brown would have a stateroom all to herself! Think of the cost, just the same for one as for two. And she'd take it ai an honor especially planned for her," "I think we can arrange it v.ith out that trouble," I said, inwardly quaking, but outwardly Uncon cerned. "Why can't you come over and share our stateroom? You cart have either the upper berth or the couch. Mother Graham, of course, has the lower." . "You are very well aware, Mar garet," my mother-in-law Legan icily, "that I cannot have that up per berth made up. I should sim ply smother with it over my head. But if Mrs. Durkee can put up with the couch I should be very glad to have her come in with me. Then you can take her place in the other drauing room." For a moment I saw red. I knew that I was by far the most fatigued of any member of the party, and knew also that as the mother of a small child my comfqrt should be safeguarded. But here in order to ! gratify the whim of one woman, the IT 1 r T . t. seinsnness oi anoiner, i was io uc shut away from my baby and shunted from one place to another like the piece of machinery I had be come, I told myself bitterly. Mother Graham Decides. But the thought of gentle Leila Fairfax made me pull myself to gether and present a smiling, uncon cerned face to the women who were watching mc. They were waiting I knew, to see what I meant to do. I knew that Leila must infinitely dread the arrival of Rita Brown, and I ad mired the sterling conscientiousness which had insisted upon the invita tion being sent the city girl. It was as little as I could do to help -her, especially as I guessed little Mrs. Durkee haid not made things espe cially pleasant for Leila since the elder woman had been told of Rita Brown's invitation. 1 "That seems to me to be a delight ful solution of the whole matter," I said cheerily. "I shall feel quite ir responsible, quite like a girl again, to be sharing a stateroom with three other young women, one a prospec tive bride." "You probably won't feci quite so skittish when I send for you to take care of Richard Second," my mother-in-law observed grimly. "I have engaged to take care of him at night, but I do not propose to play nurse maid all day. I shall expect you to relieve me as soon as he wakes in the morning." "Of course," I said demurely, knowing quite well that any one taking junior away from her on that journey, except to dress and feed him, would do it over her cbrpse. She is absurdly proud of the little chap, and the opportunity of ex hibiting his cunning self and his un deniable affection for her to a train ful of passengers was one she would not have given up for anything. Little Mrs. Durkee was looking curiously at me. "You're a dear. Madge," she said fervently. "I wonder how much you mean about liking the change, but I don't dare press the point. And if you see a good chance to strangle Rita Brown while she's asleep, please don t hesitate for fear of grieving me. (Continued Tomorrow.) Parents' Problems 1. What should be said to the children of a family in regard to a little adopted sister, who' is not a relative? Tell them that the Jittle girl is their "sister-in-love," and that their parents are her "father-in-love" and "mother-in-love." 2. Should a boy of 14 be required to help in the care of his 2-year-oln sister, or should his older sister of 15 be the mother's only helper? The boy has a right to help in the care of his little sister. Tell him this. Be sure that such help as he gives is suitable to his years and boyishness. Of course, there are loys who can dress a small child very skillfully and prepare its meals, even; but the average boy is better adapted to guarding play hours or otherwise helping in the recreation al side of the baby s life. 3. Should children be permitted to make collections of. birds eggs? Older children, who have, shown their interest in the study of birds by making "bird lists," reading bird hooks, etc., might, under guidance, be allowed to make collections of birds' eggs. One egg only of a kind should be "collected," and a grown up student and lover, of birds should direct the children. flMNSTORIEjl 0 nttH PEGX1N3 r JJ Grannie Malone Expects the Irish " Twins. One'day of the world, when it was young summer in Ireland, old Gran nie Malone sat by her fireplace knit ting. She was all alone, and in her lap lay a letter. Sometimes she took the letter in her hands and turned it over and over, and looked at it. Then she would put it down again with a little sigh. "If I but lud the learning," said Grannie Malone to herself, "I could be reading Michael's letters without calling in the priest, and t is long since he passed this door. 'T is hard work waiting until some one can tell me what at all is in it. She. stooped over and put a bit of peat on the fire, and because she had no one else to talk to, she talked to the tea-kettle. "There now," she said to it, " 't is a lazy bit of steam that's coming out of the nose of you! I'll be wanting my-"tea soon, and no water boiling." She lifted the lid and peeped into the kettle. " 't is empty entirely!' she cried, "and a thirsty kettle it is surely, and no one but myself to fetch and carry for it!" She got up slowly, laid her knit ting and the letter on the chair, took the kettle off the hook and went to the door. There was but oneloor and one window in the one littlV room of her cabin, so if the sun had not been shining brightly it would have been quite dark within. But the upper half of the door stood open, and the afternoon sun slanted across the earthen floor andv brightened the dishes that stood on the old dresser. It even showed Grannie Malone's bed in the far end of the room, and some of her clothes hanging from the rafters overhead. There was little else fn the room f What D6 You Know? .

Weekly Crop Bulletin of the Agricultural Bureau of the Omaha Chamber of Commerce, The general result of the crop conditions of the past week is good. The warming-up process, from the cool 10 "days preeding, during which the corn belt had a run of 6 to 9 degrees below normal, has been gradual and nowhere exces sive. Rainfall, though , generally light, has been fairly distributed; the Spring i wheat belt, the cotton btlt and the far eastern states hav ing received plenty of moisture. There was a . considerable area of the corn belt extending from Cen tral Nebraska east to Indiana, parti of which were badly in need of rain. A large part of this terri tory got relief the latter part of the week. The rains were heavy in soNith central Nebraska, several stations reporting from 1 to 3 inches cn Friday morning. ' .these conditions practw.rv in sure the. satisfactory matr.rlng of the winter wheat crop. Harvesting is in progress as far north as the Kansas river in eastern Kansas and some new wheat has reached the market from Texas. The high quality of the new crop is indicated by the weight of 60.9 pounds per bushel, while Texas wneat gener ally runs around 54 pounds. All reports indicate that in all western states"the grain is well filled with a plump berry. Late season dam ages, such as come from rust, fly, nail. ' etc., while existent, are so small as to be essentially negligi ble, and while June of 1919 cut the winter wheat estimate 14 points, this June, will probably show a slight gain in condition of the crop. It should be borne in mind that acreage comparisons in the winter wheat estimates have been gener ally made with the 1919 acreage or with the past five-year average which includes the two "win the war" crons which wer? far in excess of normal acreage. If one will go back a little he will find that the acreage .this year is still in the lead of prewar production, and that, tak ing hotn the winter ana spring wheat area for 1920, we should harvest "a crop from an area ex ceeding the prewar area and esti mated at about ISO.ouu.UUU in excess of prewar production. The dry area noted above has had an opportunity to progress un interruptedly with tillage opera tions, and the backward corn crop Is in th best possible condition for rapid growth, now that it has both warmth and moisture, ihe potato crop suffered from the dry weather. Put only the "Kaw" valley market district and farmers' home supply itl, a limited territory are effected seriously, All the northern and western, potato sections give favor able reports except tor a decreasen acreage in western . Nebraska and seed . rotting in parts of Minnesota vhrre"'rains were excessive. The sHrtlv e?rl .'market potato crop, i on aij' aercaee.of 20 ocr cent grcat- to sec, except her chair, a wooden table, and a little bench ly the fire, a pile of peat on the hearth, and a bag of potatoes in the corner. Grannie Malone opened the lower half orthe door and stepped out into the sunshine. Sqme speckled hens that had been sunning them selves on the doorstep fluttered out of the way, and then ran after her to the well. "Shoo get, along with you!" cried Grannie Malone. She flapped her apron at them. 'Tis you that are always thinking of something to eat! Sure, there are bugs enough in Ire land, without your always being at my heels to be fed! Come now, scratch for your living like honest hens, and I'll give you a sup of wa ter if it's dry you are." The well had a stone curbjaround it, and a bucket with a rope tied to it stood on the curb. Grannie let ,the bucket down into the well until she heard it strike the fresh spring water with a splash. Then she pulled and pulled on the rope. The bucket cayie up slowly and water spilled over the sides as Grannie lifted it to the curb. She poured some of the water into the dish'for the hens, filled her ket tle, and then straightened her bent back, ami stood looking at the little cabin and the brown bog beyond.1 (Rlghti reserved by Houghton Mifflin Co.)

Pastor of Lutheran Church Here Called To Springfield Parish Rev. S. H. Yerian, pastor of St. Luke's Lutheran church, South Side, until recently, has accepted a call to be pastor of the Fifth Lutheran church, Springfield, O., and will be installed there next Sunday. Rev. Dr. Yerian went to Spring field a fw weeks ago for the com mencement exercises at Witten burg Theological seminary of which he is a graduate. He was invited to preach at the Fifth Lutheran church and the call followed. He attended this church when he was at the college six years. Two of the boys who were in his Sunday school class are now members of the church council and a third is secretary of the Sundav rchpol.

In Minnesota and Wisconsin the crop seems, to be progressing nor mally. But in far the greater part of territory where oats is an im portant crop seeding was late. Then followed excessive heat the first part of June which caused this pre cious crop to joint before stooling properly, so that we have a crop generally mentioned as "heading short, and thin on the ground." All sections, except perhaps the Missouri river district, now report good fruit prospects. Grapes have been injured some in California with excessive heat, and the "June drop" in apple orchards is noted in reports.

Adv. i'rlnt ft Beacon WHY? Is a "Jew's Harp" So Called? (Copyright. 19fl, by the Wheeler Syndicate, Inc.) When it is remembered that the commonly known musictal in strument, part of which is placed between the lips and the center prong or sounding-bar struck with the forefinger, was entirely unknown in Judea and no ref erence to it is made in any of the Hebraic writings, the name by which it is commonly called pre sents a puzzling problem. The derivation, however, is from the French with a typically English corruption of the pro nunciation. The instrument has been known in France for many hundreds of years, probably hav ing found its way there from Scandanavia, where it is supposed to have originated. The Gallic name for it was jeu tromp or "play-thing," because of the rea son that it was principally used by boys and children for their own amusement. The English diverted the French term to "Jew trump" and seeing the incon gruity of calling anything of the kind a "trumpet," changed the final syllable to "harp.1' Under the name of "munhar monica" the instrument gained considerable popularity in Ger many early in the 19th century and Heinrich Schreibler attained fame by performing on five of these "mouth-harmonicas" at one time. Schreibler's feat, however, was surpassed by that of Etilen stein of Wurtemberg, who, with the aid of an ingenious device, played 16 Jew's harps at one time. Tomorrow Why Is the Anchor the Symbol of Hope? Extend Time Limit for Returning Feeder Stock Announcements have been re ceived by commission- firms at the stock yards from both the Burling ton and the Northwestern railroad officials that the time limit of mid night June 30 for reduced rates on live stock to feeding points in the south and east have been' extended more than a month. The new limit for the reduced rates is midnight July 31. , The rate of bringing live stock back from feeding points is one third of 'the full rate, making the round trip rate of'one and one-third, and it is expected many thousand head of cattle will be returned to Nebraska and Wyoming pastures by August 1.
