Yet they go getting richer by leaps and bounds while I—I crawl. The only difference between us is that they take big chances and win big stales while I play safe and gain little. They climb high and build up under them. I lie low and—stay low. Cora, we've got to move faster.” There was nothing Cora could say to allay his restlessness or her un- easiness. She sensed that the urge her husband felt would scon call upon her to make unusual efforts and sacrifices. On a certain evening Cora’s intuition whispered, “The call has come. Everything s to change.” For David had toted home an armful of Te- ports, photographs and blueprints. “It's our move next, Corakins!” he exclaimed, his voice vibrant with excitement. “A little daring, a little splurge, a jump into a new setting and a new life—and, Cora, we roll in wealth. Honey, I'm closing up my office for a while or for keeps and I take the first train for Pittsburgh in the morning. If things are as promising as they 1ook vou'll join me and —going up!” he cried, mimicking the elevator runner significantly, “What {s taking up—up?” Cora asked with more uneasiness than she dared show In the face of his enthusiasm. “Oh, war industries, booms, land development schemes, a chance on the ground floor in & wonderful proposition and other matters little wifekin needn’t bother her head about!” he said, clasping her shoulders lovingly. “Your end of the job is to hold yourself ready like the good soldier you are, pack kit and tent and walit for the word from me to move on to new and victorious flelds. Oh, I won't ask you to live in a tent, honey,” he assured her. “On the contrary, from now on we're going to live big and make good our stvle. So be prepared for big doings wifelets.” Cora had to be content with David's vague details. But what was not vague in her mind was that she was being dragged breathlessly from the known to the unknown, She would have to pull up stakes, give up friends and a home she had become accustomed to and go prospecting. She would have to throw over all the standard of living to which she had molded her ways, tastes and aspirations. She would have to hold herself ready to travel at whatever pace David might set, no matter how swift and strenuous, and in whatever region he might decide to prospect for wealth as a miner hunts for gold. Cora had felt the change coming ever since her husband had joined a certain club composed of men whose business was that vague (to a wom- en) calling usually termed accelebrated from that time. automobile, realizing only Cora slower and more comfortable, with scape before whisking into a new one.

If T did not have a foot of land, I would buy me some window boxes and plant seeds in them so that I might have the joy of watching the miracle of life renewed take place. “He hath set the world hearth so that no one can find the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.” That is one of my favorite verses, and it seems to me that the seed is the heart of the flow- er world, and in that, too, He has set the whole world. Just think how tiny some of the seeds are, and how powerful, withal! Take a poppy seed ;they are so tiny that a fairy might carry hundreds of them in his pack and yet in each little black atom the life principles lies waiting, ready to rouse up, push itself through hundreds of pounds (compar- atively) of heavy dark earth, win their out in Happiness through to the light and “climb to a soul in leaves and flowers.” One Can Minister to the Miracle. True, one does have to wait a few days after planting before one can expect to see the first act of the dra- ma, but one knows that the wonder- ful prologue is going on down under- neath the earth, and one can have the honor of ministering to the miracle with a watering pot, and when the few days are past the excitement of watch- ing for the first signs of life com- mences. 1 g0 out every morning before 1 eat my breakfast to see if anything has happened in the night and one morning I see the first sign, a little crack in the earth. I show it to my housemates and they are inclined to be sceptical, but the next morning I lead them out triumphantly and point out that along the crack there is a lit- tle line of green fuzz if it is the poppy garden, or If it is in the nasturtium plot, a sturdy little pale green sprout plodding methodically up towards the light. Pity the Child Who Has No Ganden, The next day there are more green shoots and more little lines lo! of fuzz, Every day I watch their progress; they are a never ending source of interest and delight. I can't understand how any mother can fail to see that her children have their own little garden plots, and their self-chosen, self-planted seeds.

And, indeed, ihe beauty before my eyes was worthy of one’s fullest attention. I never have seen a prettier street. More pretentious and formal boule- vards have impressed me, but there was a quaint charm all its own about this winding thoroughfare,” which the queer bombast one sometimes finds in villages had dubbed “‘Grand avenue.” “Pleased to Meet You." A sudden turn as the homes b most hid the squatty little buildin ar the railroad station. From that turn to the point where the street crossed one of the most famous of Long and motor roads, there not a home which did not speak cemfort, good taste and beauty. Stately trees arching over street until their tips almost twined lined both sides of the thoroughfare. Not a house but what had large grounds, which one could see would be a riot of bloom when the summer came. On the west side of the street. down which we were walking, the land sloped down to a brook which widen- ed sometimes into a pond, sometimes narrowed into a rill. We could see the water shimmering and dancing in the sunlight. On the other side of the raad each person’s land extended back to the next street, “I don't believe there is s like it,” I said admiringly paused to 100k at a quaint old lish house with a rose arbor ning back to the water. “There isn't,” Dicky refoined, *T wish we could get a place somewhere aiong here.
