"'P*'-"'P-'-O- N T e ol s e )Seis ey v e i “RETAIN THE LOVERS’ LANES” Sentiment ' in Thousands of Hearts Pleads That They May Never Become Great Highways. ‘A little gray cottage stands on a hilitop. Below the hill runs the cross road. There is not much travel on the road—it sérves to connect two highways. o :

Oftentimes the crossroad takes its way close to the foot of some deeply wooded: knoll and sometimes it goes over a creek, quivering under its icy cover. Then the two ends of the road meet by nieans of a little bridge; where the hoofbeats of the horse echo loud and the sound of the motor becomes .a glant dynamo. Sometimes the crossroad 1s overarched with trees, as it is below the gray cottage, and the summer sunlight only filfers through in patches—such a compelling, mysterious‘ intimacy as there is to the crossroad then. . ' :

The young® folks call the crossroad “lovers’ lane.” The old folks used to call it “lovers’ lane” when they were young and drove under the arched branchés or jingled over the 'road in sleighs, while the round moon laid the shadows of the black branches meeting overhead In etchings on the snow. “Lovers’ lane”—every county owns one. Therée was a lovers’ lane in Sangamon county, Illinois, and Abe Kincoln walked along it with Ann Rutledge in the °’3os—soldiers sang about “lovers’ lane”’—may all the little crossroads that now are lovers’ lanes never, never become -arterial highways |—Chicago Daily News,

EASY TO TELL HIS THOUGHTS Little Peculiarities. of Theodore Vail + Revealed Much to Friends and ' - Business Associates. There was nothing eccentric about Theodore N. Vail, but he had ' certain little peculiarities of manner. From his biographer, Albert Bigelow Paines we learn that for one thing he was ab-sent-minded. o .

~ .Once, says Mr. Paine, when Mr. Vail iwas starting on one of his many trips to the Pacific coast and had invited his niece to accompany him he furnedto- her abruptly at the moment of departure: “Well; good-by, Kate,” he said, “I'm sorry you're not coming with me.” e e s

-Her prompt reply that she was going both startled and amused him., His thoughts seemed always to require some sort, of physical outlet. When listening to anyone he had a habit of making small pencil drawings —curlicues, geometrical shapes and letters carefully shaded. They showed that he was interested in what was being said. When he was not Interested he would pull out a handkerchief and fold' and refold it on his knee down to the smallest subdivision. Those who knew him could easily tell when he was not enjoying a situation, for then the handkerchief would Invariably appear, and the folding continue until the suffering ended.— Youth’s Companion. o

Scottish Gardeners Valued.

Scottish gardeners are being exported to all parts of the world. A notable instance of the value in which the Scottish gardener is held, is the engagement by a United States millionaire, of a Scotsman for his private grounds, at a salary of $5,000 a year. Not many years ago the’man was getting a few dollars a quarter in London. One of the superintendents in a London park can record several instances of his men from across the border getting very high salaries for private establishments on this side of the Atlantic. There is one gardener of Scottish origin in a South London park who says he has “mown the grass” in most corners of the earth, including remote parts of South America. + A high percentage of the gardeners in London public parks are Scots, and more than one supervisor can boast of his eclan.

Swells’ Pride.

Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., made a graceful little speech at the opening of the Grace Dodge hotel in Washington. This hotel, which Mrs. Rockefeller helped to found, is exclusively for women. It has many novel features, among them elaborately equipped rooms where woman guests gy launder their own linen. : X ’ “Comfortable, even luxurious as our hotel is,” sald Mrs. Rockefeller, “there are some women who will hesitate to patronize it out of pride. Pride! Such pride reminds me of a story. . - “‘Father, what 1s a swell? a little boy once asked. = soae “sA swell, son,’ the father answered, ‘ls a lazy loafer whose sole claim to importance lies In the fact that he once had an ancestor who devoted his life to hard and honest work.” . / i )

Water 30 Cents a Gallon.

‘Water isn’t quite up to the price of liquor, but it is almost there at Cow Camp, the driest point on the Siiver Peak range, near Tonopah, Nev, They are paying 30 cents a gallon for it, and residents are agreeing that it is cheap at the price. There Isn't any competition. The water man has a monopoly and no one envies him his job. |

The nearest watering place is ‘ll miles away. For five miles the water i 3 carried in a buckboard drawn by horses. Then the road narrows to a trail and horses are unhitched, the wa‘ter bags tled over their backs, and the ‘remainder of the trip 1s slow. It takes ‘about a day to make the trip. ~ In the old days, when saloons quenched thirsts, there wasn’t the demand for water that there is now. —Los Angeles Times. -

ST e | ‘BEver since the business was established in 1860, the general offices of The Straus Brothers Company have been in Ligonier, Indiana. One of its largest branch offices has been located in Chicago. By reason of the fact that the business at that office has grown to very large proportions, and because of the desirability of having the general offices where they will be easily accessible from all points, it has been decided that after July 15th, 1922, ‘the general offices of the company will be in the Otis Building, 10 South La Balle St., Chicago. e = | This changé’will necessitate the removal of some of the heads of the departments from Ligonier to Chicago. A branch office which will be continued at Ligonier where real estate, farm mortgage and investment transactions will be continued as they ‘are at our Fort Wayne and Detroit offices.
