INFORMATION OF THE PUBLIC] E 8 g 3 £ i been jlited by the cook at mansion he was ready to ge H Saulbury was on his way to village to do some “trading,” and four fingers of his left hand had tied four strings, lest he They stood for a quart of molasses, a can of baking powder, three pounds of sugar and a package of starch. As he jogged along with his old horse and rickety wagon the farmer kept counting the strings and naming over the respective articles. In 0 doing he forgot that the auto- moblle industry of America was still on the job, and the horse was left to pick his own going. Young Dayton's chauffeur might have been looking over the landscape on either side of the highway, or he might have had his eyes closed as he thought of the perfidy of the cook who had led him on and on until he had declared his love and then hit him with a four-story brick house, As for the young man he might not have been thinking of anything, and had his eyes on the toes of his shoes. When both farmer and auto are | properly encouraged there is a get- ting together. There was in this case. There was a crash and there was a smash—shouts and yells, and there they were! The cld horse was dead, the buggy wrecked, and the farmer hoisted over the fence among the thistles. The auto was hanged, the chauffeur knocked about, and young Y .'.‘ P —— ;Ms Were 8Some Awful Threats Made. Dayton had a bad limp on him as he arose from the dust of the road. “You've done it now—b’'gosh you've done it!" shouted the farmer as he hung to the fence. “Yaas,” drawled young Dayton, with an accent that would have done credit to a Hindoo in London. i “And why in the devil were you here instead of somewhere else?” de- manded the chauffeur. There was more jawing, and there were some awful threats made. By the great horn spoon, and the Mt - —o0 There “One can never tell how a lawsuit may end. This young lawyer may prove more than a match far the oth- or side!” [ “If he does I'll shake hands with bhim and send him all the cases I can.” Up to the day the suit was called the efforts to get young Dayton to change lawyers continued, but he was firm. On the date set, father, mother, brother and sister were on hand at the court house, and presently Miss Mollie got a surprise that opened her eyes, Her brother’s attorney proved to be the Mr. Graham she had talked with at the lawn party. Yes, he was the young lawyer who was to plead his first case. Blushes galloped over the girl's cheeks as she remembered bow she had maligned him, and if he looked her way he found her looking another, . The farmer was the first witness on the stand: He had gone over his testimony a hundred times, and was all ready to start off with: “Wall, I was goin’ up town to buy some ‘lasses and things.” “Yoa?” “I.was keepin' my eyes peeled for them darned autos, and I was a say- ing to myself that it one come along—" er mind what you were saying.
