Beth stared aghast at this reception. It was evident that Mrs. ilarsh had mistaken her for some other expected person. In a few words she explained who she was and the disaster that had befallen her finances. "I’m awful sorry. Miss Tilton,” said Mrs. Marsh when Beth had finished her story, "and It seems too bad that you have to lose your vacation after all—If It was out of the season I’d tell you to stay any way, but we’re crowded, of course, and every room Is engaged. I can rent yours tomorrow.”

Some interesting information has just come to hand regarding the competition at present going on between smugglers and revenue officials in the use of dogs on the land frontiers of Austria. The smugglers generally choose small, smoothhaired dogs, like fox terriers, as their assitants. They train them by giving them a whipping on the further side of the frontier and then drive them across it to the house of an accomplice in- an Austrian village, where they receive a good meal. The dog naturally soon learns to run as hard as he can. He is then covered with the skin of a rough-haired dog, usually a poodle, inside which a quantity of tobacco, saccharin, lace or other valuable goods on which there is a high duty is fastened id 1 such a way that the enlarged dog looks as natural as possible. The revenue officials have found it very difficult to shoot these canine contrabandists, so they now set dogs to catch dogs. For this purpose they train larger swift-running animals with good noses, whose duty it is to run down the smuggler’s dogs, kil them and then lead the officials to the spot. They are also employee to hunt out the smugglers themselves in their hiding places, in the caves of or forests, and to discover their'caches.

The train started on Its winding way among the hills. Beth Tilton pressed her pretty nose against the car window to wave a last farewell at her mother and younger sister on the station platform.

At last their forms faded from view and Beth leaned back tired with the preparations for this long-anticipated vacation —almost fearful that she would awake to find It a dream after all.

"Of course I will pay you for tho day or so I shall remain,” explained Beth.

Beth had been saving money for three years to take a few weeks’ vacation from the office where she worked; but each year had seen the money diverted to some other necessary object and Beth had spent her vacations at home.

*T>o you frown unconsciously f»om habit or defective evesight?” asked an elderly woman of a young girl the other day. Continuing: “Do you realize that each frown lessens your chance of popularity—your chance for making friends? A ou may not bo so cross as you look, hut the world is i»ot going to take the trouble to discover it.

"My land —I wish you was a waitress—I’m so short of help.” bemoaned Mrs. Marsh, suddenly turning to a subject that appeared to be on her mind. “Annie Brian left yesterday and I sent to Beechmont for another girl, and I’ve been expecting her by every train. To tell you the truth, I thought you was one." "Wouldn’t I do?” asked Beth. "You wouldn’t want, though It’s honest work. Miss Tilton,” said Mrs. Marsh, eagerly. ‘TT1 do It,” agreed Heth, "If you will allow me to spend every afternoon out of doors after I have finished my work. In that way I can pay for my vacation and get some good from If, too.”

But this year had proved to be an exception. She had heard of a pleasant farmhouse tucked away among the Litchfield hills and she had written and engaged board for four weeks. Now. she was actually on her way there. Her trunk was In the baggage car and her well-filled suitcase was beside her In the coach. Prom her arm dangled a leather handbag containing her money—fifty dollars —and her trunk check. Three hours passed before the train reached the lltlle_red painted station which marked Beth’s destination. She arose and made her way with difficulty past the stoat woman who had occupied more than half of her seat and who made no attempt to arise when the train stopped. Beth was the only passenger at Red station and she saw her trunk bounced from the baggage car to the platform as the train moved on. The station agent came out and looked curiously at. the pretty girl with the wide, expectant eyes that could not see enough In that first glimpse of the rol’.ing hills, the stately trees, the flas'n of bird wings in the thickets ar.d the multitudinous sounds of a warm midsummer day in the real country. “I reckon yon belong to this here trunk.” remarked the man with a good-natured grin.

“Do you know that the frowning habit will limit your chance of success as a worker? A smiling countenance and flic good disposition that generally accompanies it count for more in the business world than the frowner will ever believe.

“Can you give me something to cat, ma’am ?” asked the tramp at the kitchen door.

"That will suit me —now, what shall I call you?" "You might call me Lizzie," smiled Beth. "I’m glad 1 brought plenty of plain cotton dresses along. If you will lend me some aprons I’ll begin now."

Calls Answered Day or Night.

Thus Beth Tilton began her strange vacation, which was half work. She did not write home to her family and tell them of her loss and how the vacation money had vanished after all. They would be disappointed—they had all helped to get her off. She wrote of tho pleasant people who were stopping there, of the games of tennis and croquet, of the fishing In the lake, the long tramps over hill and dale and of long afternoons which she spent in a hammock under the apple trees In the orchard. She told them about Bruce Maynard, who was stopping at Wellwood Farm for a few weeks. She mentioned what he had said to her In many Interesting conversations held under the apple trees, but she did not tell them that some of the feminine boarders were shocked at his attentions to the pretty young waitress and how she had at last been obliged to avoid him.

Another copy of the very rare “first folio” of Shakespeare’s plays has been hneught to light in a strange manner. A sixteen-year-old son of a well-known baronet was egploring in the library of tho carl,of Dudley, at Whitley court, recently, when ho came across a volume which he recognized as an early edition of the great dramatist’s works. It haC. boon relxuind, and one or two pages were missing. At first the boy’s discovery was not regarded as anything very special, hut having seen a first folio of Shakespeare in the British museum, tho young expert insisted on the importance of his find, and eventually the hook was sent up to a loading firm of book dealers. They at once declared that the volume was a genuine first folio. Imperfect as the new find is, it is of considerable value. Only last year a similar copy was sold at auction for £1,190. -p

Then one day Bruce Maynard went away and life at the farm became very dull for Beth, but she continued to be the best waitress that Mrs. Marsh had ever employed and she was well liked and courteously treated by all the boarders. At last came the first of September and with It witnessed the departure of the last boarder. Mrs. Mars hlnslsted upon Berth assuming her proper name and position.

She had paid her way and had money In the handbag to pay her wfly home, and yet she was not quite happy. Life could never be the same to her after meeting Bruce Maynard. If fate had been kinder she would have met him under more favorable conditions and there might have followed something more lasting. The night before she was to leave for New York Bruce Maynard came back. He found Mrs. Marsh sitting alone on the front porch. "I’ve come back to marry your waitress, Lizzie Tilton,” he said bluntly. "Where is she?” “She’s gone.” smiled Mrs. Marsh demurely. “In her place is Miss Beth Tilton —who really came here to board with me, but took a waitress’ position because she had her pocket picked on the train —” "Where Is she?” Insisted Maynard Just as If he had not heard her explanation. "I believe she Is watching the sunset from the orchard fence —” But before Mrs. Marsh could complete the sentence Bruce Maynard had darted around the corner of the bouse and disappeared.

Miss Ballou has made a really remarkable success ever since she started In to sell cottonseed products, and her business is still growing. Along In July. 1910, Miss Ballou made a sale of 92 tanks of crude oil for future delivery, which is believed to hare been the largest sale known in the history of the cottonseed oil trade, and this was an advertisement which spread her fame far and wide. Miss Ballou first went Into the business as an employe in the office of a broker in Memphis. But after a year there she started out for herself on a very small scale at first. Her business increased to such an extent, however, that she now has two large offices in the Exchange building and a large and competent office force to take care of her orders. — National Provisloner.

The walk to the farm was most unhappy for poor Beth. She was tired and dusty and very warm when ahe reached the gates. It did not add to her self-possession to see the shady porches filled with daintily gowned women and the tennis courts gay with young men and girls. This was the reason why Beth chose to enter the wide carriage gate and keep on around to the kitchen door, where a tired-looking woman in a neat gingham dress was churning. “Oh. here you are at last!” she cried in a relieved tone. “I'm sorry you had to walk all the way—you must be tired.
