"Will you have the transfer made oir. . t once?" Jordan stared incredulously. It seemed too gooi to be true Though ho was n rich man. Jordan i terribly pressed for ready cash \ a which to swing certain deals, and t.ds j-s.i o would solve seveml financial p Moms. Rising, he led the way across the hall to the oftiees of Ills lawyers, instructing them to make out a deed to Harlan, and the latter sat down to wait for It, being assured that It would requae but a few minutes. The clerk did not explain that a similar deed had been drawn tip only a few weeks before, when Jordan had sought to sell the ground for half of what he was getting from Harlan. The deal had fallen through, and it only remained to recopy the document with the new name and terms. In ,wenty minutes Harlan owned the property and nu office boy was on his way to the bank with the check for Jordan. Harlan followed Jordan to his own offices, but at the door the elder turn ■ i. “If you think you have won my admiration with any such grand stand piny as this," he said brutally, “y ou have made a mistake. You're paying twice what that k nd Is worth just to call my bluff. That's not the sort of man I want for a soa-In-lnw. I want a man who can drive n bargain, not one who can tie fooled the way you have been.” ‘‘If you will let nu> explain"- began Harlan; but, with a laugh, .Ionian shut the door between them. He was still chuckling over the Incident when n card was brought In. to be followed by a sharp, eager looking man, a local real estate agent. “Uncommon cheerful you look,” commented the newcomer ns he took n chnlr uninvited. "Just be-n turning down my daughter's suitor and gi-tMng rid of a lot of useless real estate by loading It on him.” respond 1 Jordan, with n chuckle. "That’s the seventh time I've told Hartcn that he couldn’t marry Vera." “And you sold him that parcel of land out by the lake?" asked the other man. Jordan nodded. “And at forty an

Before the clerks of the postoffice knew Ogton he called day after day to inquire if there were "any letters for John Hogtown.” "None, sir," was the invariable an-
swer.
“Very strange." said he. feeling uneasy about the goods he had ordered from England and 'he bills of exchange he had remitted. One day after the usual question. "Any letters for John Hogtown?" his eye, following the clerk, notice'! that he was looking among the letters beginning with II. “ ’Olio"’ cried he. “What are you looking there for? 1 said John Il «gtown.” "I know It. sir. and I am looking for John Ilogto-.vn. and there’s nothing for

Among the Knrnas before plowing the farmer makes a burnt offering of blitter uud molasses In his own field and again at the village shrine The Chinese begin plowing on the fir>t day of their solar year Anciently the rites which were celebrated by the Chinese at plowing time were elnbo rate, but rationalistic sovereigns ellm Inated one expensive religious rite after another until nothing was left ex cept the Imperial act of homage to heaven and earth and agriculture In the ceremonial plowing The Siamese observe a rite called Rankun about the middle of May which Is preliminary to the plowing season, and it Is not proper for any one to plow until the ceremony is over. The court astrologers determine the time for It. On the day fixed by them the minister of agriculture, who Is always a prince or nobleman of high rank, goes with n procession to n piece of ground some distance from the capital.
