LIZA CURRY sat writing a let ter. - She had taken the ma terials from a quaint wooden box that sat before her upon the sitting room table—sheets of faintly tinted paper, a stick of blue wax, a quaint pen that, dipped in a glass of water, rewarded one with a flow of mauve ink. She wrote slowly fn a fine slanting hand with little curlicues on her “g's” and “p’ and “f's.” And she wrote painfully for never in all her life she had any thing more unpleasant to do than | writing this letter to her nephew’s widow, Lila Canfield Eliza was old and tiny with white halr wound in a sleek little knot, a mouth like a wilted pink and dark eyes which had once held a ome- | follow-me” look so Irresistible that | she had scarcely been able to count | her beaus.on the fingers of both | hands. But she, as so often happens, had married the poor stick of the lot, Fergus Curry—because she loved him. « And that love had weathered the vicissitudes of & difficult married experience which had terminated sev eral years before in Fergus' death. During the years of her widowhood Fliza had “managed.” She had her tiny white house and a little money which she had made last until the present moment. Now that it was gone she must sell her house. Indeed, the bargain was all but inade with possession to be given immediately In a week, more or less, Eliza would be leaving the house, which she had come Fergus' bride, the house where her three children had been born and had died one after the other, the house where Fergus had closed his wild, bright eyes, the house where she herself had hoped to die. Her nephew's widow. Lila Canfleld, offered her a home and she was going therd” She was writing to say that just as soon as she could get things in shape she would come. The Spring sun came in at the win dows hotly, and as Eliza wrote she was consclous of a faint odor all through the house, which came not from her pot-pourri jar, for that was closed; not from the geranium on the sill, not from the strong cup of tea she had brewed for her lunch. _She sniffed _delicately. Ah! Now she knew. It was the smell of apples dried apples, and it came from the old chest-of-drawers in the spare bedroom off the sitting room. The door was standing ajar. tett® she followed Leaving her that elusive lure. The old chestof. drawers loomed enormous in the tiny room which she never used because she had no company of late years. When Lila came to see her, as she did once a year, she stayed at the Jefferson house. So because the room seemed good for mo other purpose Eliza kept thers her best frock, her best hat, and in the chest- of-drawers she kept her sack of dried apples. She opened a drawer and took out the sack and peeped into it. How Fergus had loved dried-apple pie with a bit of boiled cider and cinnamon' She had always had her sack of dried apples on that account. She did not care much for them herself, either in pie or sauce. There was quite a sack- ful. Of course she wouldn't need them now that she was going away. She wondered what she would do with them. Maybe Carrie Rush could use them. She had a big family and any- thing eatable always came in handy there. And the chest-of-drawers—the dried- apple chest she called it in her own mind, She would have to sell it Lila had given her permission to bring a few things, but nothing so cumber- some as this chest. It was not so easy to dispose of that. She sighed as she gazed at it. It was very old. | It had been in Fergus’ family, had be- longed to his mother, she thought, or perhaps his grandmother. It was all handmade, a dark red wood, cherry, presumably. Well, she would leave the chest-of-drawers and take the dried apples over to Carrle Rush so she could get them ready for supper. ‘With a shawl around her and the sack in her hand she went across the street to the Rush house. Mrs. Rush met_her hospitably. “What's that? Dried apples? Well, I guess they will come in handy. I'll make me a dried apple cake after mother’s recipe. Come in and sit down a minute. I want you to meet my com- 4| pany—Mrs. Wallace.” She drew Eliza into the living room where & small, keen-eyed woman sat fby the register. Bliza, glad of a little diversion, sat down, and the three women began to talk. “I feel dreadful about your going away, Mrs. Curry,’ kindly Mrs. Rush mourned. I don’t know what I shall do without you. You've been the best neighbor 1 ever had. .I wish there was some way you could stay.” Eliza smiled her pale, patient smile. “So do L. But I shall be very cozy at my niece’s.” “Of course. She will be good to you. No_one could fail to be good to you. What are you going to do with your things? Take them with you?" “I can't. I guess Mr. Pratt, the old furniture man, will take most everything — except, may be, the dried-apple chest.” “The dried-apple chest! exclaimed Mrs. Wallace. Bliza explained. “I'd like to see that chest,” Mrs. ‘Wallace said. “May be I could sell it for you. I know a woman that's quite & hand for old furniture. She might give you a good price for it.” In the little spare bedroom where the chest loomed so hugely Eliza raised the shade of the one window. “I suppose maybe it's 150 years old,” she remarked. Eliza brought the knife. Mrs. Wal- lace said. “Four drawers and three across the top. And the whole front is solid mahogany. I fancy Mrs. Al- drich would give you $50° for this anyway.” Eliza drew a long breath. Fifty dollars was a lot of money and yet for her the old dried-apple chest had a value that could not be expressed in terms of dollars. Then suddenly Mrs. Wallace went down on her knees and began hunt- ing for something at the bottom of the chest. “I want a knife or something to pry with,” she said. RESORTS. .

By the Associated P BERLIN, January 18.—Every time that President Coolidge, Dawes, Kel | logg, Mellon or Borah issue a public pronouncement, there is unusual ac- tivity in the press division of the Ger- man foreign office on Wilhelmstrasse, It is because there is a standing or- der in the department that press re- ports of the utterances by these Amer- ican statemen should immediately be brought to the attention of President von Hindenburg and the other mem- bers of the government The manner in which these pro nouncements as well as other news- paper facts are communicated to the German leaders is as different in each case as it Is interesting. Take the Marx cabinet as an instance. Hindenburg Likes Comics. President von Hindenburg reads few newspapers aside from a daily from his home town, Hanover. The di- gest of the world’s news is communi- cated to him orally each day at 11 a.m. by the chief of the government's press bureau, Dr. Zechlin. Zechlin goes at his job from a jour- nalistic point of view—that is, he nar- rates the news in the order of its im. portance. Following the news com the leading cartoons of the day and newspaper jokes on persons in the public limelight. The soldier-president enjoys this feature of the daily report Immensely, and it is reported that Zechlin has become a favorite of the president by his judicious selection of humorous material. The president also receives a daily press report on military matters. Sol- dier that he is, he watches the min- istry of defense with keener interest than any other govern . — & ment depart Marx Read Germania. Chancellor Marx confined his redd« ing of newspapers chiefly to the Ger- mania, the Berlin daily organ of the Center party, and the Koelnische. Volkszeitung, Cologne organ of the Center party for the Rhineland. The chancellor is a native of Cologne. Dr. Marx also received a dally digest of news from the press division. In his case, however, interest centered particularly in the provincial press. As the political head of the country, he was anxious to know what the foik out in the country thought. Foreign Minister Stresemann was. the most ardent newspaper reader in- the cabinet. He personally perused - about a dozen newspapers daily and then rang up the government press division to make sure he had not over- looked anything. He particularly de- sired to know what leading foreign journals had to say. Several transla- tors were accordingly kept busy, put- ting together comments and items from the world press. Gessler Immune to Comment. In contrast te Dr. Stresemann, the minister of defense, Dr. Otto Gessler would tell everybody who cared to hear it that he never read any news. paper. If he did, he claimed, he would soon jar his nerves at reading all the attacks to which his department was constantly subjected. When one’ watched Gessler in the Reichstag. however, as he answered the attacks of the opposition, one was inclined to think that domehow he found out after all, what the press said about. him. The minister of the interi v Wilhelm Kuslz, personally ‘wert through the leading Berlin dailles each day and marked for closer read. ing whatever items especially inter- ested him.
