Mrs. Jones cannot expect to gel for her smaller price the same qua!-- Friedmann j hy <>f butler, for instance, as does Mrs. Brown, who pays more. But there are a good many things called for and sold in flic store dealing in groceries and general merchandise tlial are of only cue grade, and of these poof Mrs. Jones should receive as good us rich Mrs. Brown.

It Is a mistake to be lieve that beaus can only be grown profitably in the states which are now produdug the greater portion of the bean crop— New York, Michigan and I’a.liforuiu.

Authorities tell us that any soil that will grow wheat and com is adapted to the profitable production of beaus.

Bean experts recommend deep plow ing not less than six inches to pro pare soil for beans.

Never before had the manager heard such versatility in the assumption of different characters. Now the reader was the loving fatiier, now the inno cent girl, the hopeful man of twenty- one. Into all these he infused the in dividuality of the part, but when be came to the principal character, the villain, his listener was lost in wonder. Presently the reader stopped, look out his watch and said: \The time I asked is up.” “Go on.” The rending proceeded, and when the play was finished the manager, as tounded at the vigo- of the play and the genius of the reader, asked for his name. “ My name is Stonegrave Overman. I think I have satisfied you that I can write a play. At the first rehearsal I shall satisfy you that I can act a part.\ “You will personate”— “The villain.\ In half an hour Ihe playwright left the theater wffth n contract, ami in two weeks the play was produced, with Stonegrave Overman cast for the prin cipal part. “ What a singular name!” exi-mimed everyone. ‘’Stonegrave Overman!

Once several of the audience, those with remarkably acute eyesight, thought they saw a myriad of faint sparks encircling the actor, which they attributed to tlie electrical condition of the atmosphere. Suddenly there came a remarkable change. During a momentary lull in the storm when the star was address ing Hie man of the noble part with a merciless satire that was making him cringe in spite of himself, lowering his voice and pausing to render the last word effective, there came the faint sound of a distant hell.
