And, then, he tried to blame it on me—he said I needed a home and some one to look after me, and all that sort of rot. Pa and I lived in a hotel—and his “girl” lived in i door.

One evening he gave me a quar ter—(bet he thought it was a nickel) —and told me I'd better go over to the hotel. Pa always said I had a good head for business, so after that I made him “Oh, fairly well,” said he. “But can’t you think of some one else?” “Well—how about Miss Harriette— and she's rich, too.” “Money isn't everytihng. Miss Jane thinks a lot of you, my boy.” “Does she?” said I. “Yes; she says you're little fellow she knows.” “Where do you come in at, pa?” “Oh—a—that-—that’s different.” “Well,” said I; T thought I'd say something to please pa for once—"But do you think she'd have you?” “Oh, of course,” said pa. “Have you popped the question, | pop?” “N-no, my son.” “Well, you'd better get busy.” Pa left me in a hurry.

The popular belief of the district is that these trees are connected through their roots with a subterranean supply of natural gas, and theland on which they grow is valued accordingly. An examination of the gas collected from a cotton- wood tree was made by Prof. Busong of the University of Kansas, and it was found to be substantially the same as natural gas, with the addi- tion of some free hydrogen. Prof. Ferguson believes, however, that this gas is the product of decomposition of the heartwood of the trees. i blg fat turkey has a bank account has a Thankse makes a real thanks- ! the trees are often found to contain gas.
