Fr«>^i>ort, April 18.—I.4»t all thtymm wMo have any doubt*' about the efllrl- entry ot the Orovo fjifr«*t troUoy here¬ after r*>inAln Hll^nf. i«>ft*llnK thc tale alonir the rail.
Friday wa« a clay when some of the vlllnite Htrcets that bavf* b«en "tlght- wadM" all winter tooxened up and vvo- dticed lots of hidden mudfllle<l hole« that wnrc aa danfferous to the 'eye an a boarding ncliool mlHH.
The villaice l« repalrlnjf Ocean nvenue and makinK 3 Rood job of it, too; but that Is neither here nor thore. To go back to Kriday; aloni;. Ocean avenue came the Freoport Bteam roller In all the Riory .of puftlnK and flat wheelH. Lumberlnff alonK like an elephant bent on covering India In one day, she bumped alonK—rather rolled—because the Htreet has been fixed remember, and (¦li went well »mtil the comer of Ocean av«oue and Front street was reached. Then somethinp hajipened! At this comer was one of those hidden 'dug- /iintH that was dc-oeivinif, to the eye antl the unsuspecting steam roller rolled ker flop into saiil duirout.
Ous, the enKint-er, luffKe<l at the lever and "Bull Durham," so named because Blio rolls her own, st mined the strufr lfle<l while the mud hole Kurgled with dellRht. It looked like the end of a perfect day nnd (lus was al>out to tel ephonei tho Villaice I^ofiixl that they could come and pet their old contrap tlon when Our Hero whizzed around the corner, came lo a stop and popped the usual "Whazzmatter?"
Our Hero wua Julius Bindrim, a man amnnR men, a jrenUenian and a jrood Judge of trolley cuts. He quickly took In the .situation and sold to the wecp- Ing Ous, "Cheer up, Freddie, I h,ive a way to Kct you out of this. 1 will got "Of'cen Alice, the fJrove street "Kumb- let" und we will snake you out of there like nothing nt all.
This was the ctie for loud lauRhs'of derision thnt got up the dnnder of said Julius. Ho hnd ju.st como frnm collect¬ ing a few rents so he offered to bet the two million dollars thnt he could do It. His money woa f|uickly covered, but brushliiK the mud off he jumped Into, bis car iintl disappeared in a cloud of splash toward the spacious ^-nr iNirns of the Freeport Trolley Company.
Aftei- carefully looklnpr over his roll Ing stock in the barn he picked out the otdy car that was there and set-It on the ti-!ick with its nose pointe<l towards Ocean nvenue and Kront street.
Hho reached the .scene of the .iccident the saKie day and President Blndrlm put the handcuffs on tho trolley and tho steam roller and gave tho order to (?o ahead.
With a struRBle and a snort the "drove KUeot Hound" .settled into the Collar and with a disappointed KVirgle, the mud hole released its suction, and the .steam roller was dmpped out and proceeded on her way.
Tho main point to bring out ia the fact that the Freoport trolley company is always ready to sei-ve the pulilic and to do an act of kindne.ss even though Inconvenienced and nt flnancial lo.ss. .' Mr. Bindrim did not want to ¦ talk alMiiut the little favor he had done tho village.

INGALLS' TRIBUTE TO GRASS
Kloneers' frairio 'i\AnK. The necessity of tinding n more con¬ venient nnd comfortable place thaa the ground upon which to sleep pro¬ duced the "prairie bunk." This one- legged liedstend, now a piece of fnrni- ttirc of the past, w.ns Improvised by the pioneer In n unique manner. A forked ptake was driven Into the ground nt a proper distance from the tomer of tho room and upon It poles, DBually of hickory, were luld renclilug from each wall. Th<>se poles, wJiketa they tonched the walls,' rested In the npeiilnga between the logs 6r were driven Into auger holes. Upon these poles slats of clapboard were placed, or Unden bark was Interwoven from pole to pole. Sometimes an old-fash¬ ioned "cord bed" was made by using basswood bark for the cord. On this framework the housewife spread her straw tick or piled the luxurious mound of her homemade feather bed. Such a sleeping place wns usually known B8 « "pmlrle bedstead," but sometimes It was called a "pmlrle rascal."~Mlldred J. Sharp, In the Pal¬ impsest.

Lying In the sunshine hmong the butte«*cnps and dandelions of May, scan-ely higher in Intelligence than the minute tenants of thnt mimic wilder¬ ness, our earliest recollections nre of grns's; nnd when the fitful fever is ended and the foolish wrangle of the market nnd forum Is closed, grass heals over the scar which our descent into the bosom of the earth has made, aufl the carpet of the Infant becomes the blanket of the dead. fJrnss is the forgiveness of Nature—her constant benediction. Fields trampled with battle, saturated with blood, torn with the ruts of cannon, grow gre^i again with grass, and carnage Is forgotten, ^tweets abandoned hy traffic become grriss-grown like rural lanes and nre obliterated. Forests deca.v, harvests perish, flowers vnnlsb, but grass Is im¬ mortal. Belenguerod by the sullen hosts of winter, it withdraws into the Inipregunble fortress of Its subter¬ ranean yltnllty and emerges upon the first solicitation of spring. Sown by the wlnd.s, by the wandering birds, propagated hy the subtle agriculture .of the elements which nre Its minis¬ ters nnd servauts, It softens the rude outllne'of the world. It bears no bla¬ zonry of bloom to charm the senses with fragrance or splendor, but Its homely hue Is more enhancing thun the lily or the rose. Jt yields no fruit In earth or nlr. nnd yet«bould Us har¬ dest fnll for n single year, famine wonld depopulate the world.—Krom a "Collection of the Writings of John Jnmes Ingnlls."

Religion in Everyday Life. The widespread Impression thnt re¬ ligion is a tlilnjc of life npart and not an essential pnrt of profitable life Is at the bottom of nil our soclnl prob¬ lems. Were the people taught, not merely preached fo on Sundays, but tflught In school from Infancy to old age, that to deal Justl.v, to be kind and generous, nnd to revere the pow¬ ers aboye earthly powers, our social alTalrs would soon ussiime. or approx¬ imate, the conditions contemplated by the Master. In these more enlight¬ ened times men want to know the valuq( of religion ns a personal asset in'life rather than a promised assur- hnce of pence and comfort after death. An occasional sermon on tha yalne of religion ns a personal asset in sq^ial and business life would be helpful to many tollers.—^Erasmus Wilson.

PARSLEY CALLS FOR
WATCHFUL WAITING
There Is .a long period of watchful waiting after parsley is planted, as the seeds ger-minate ver.v slowly. They are hastened somcwliat by being soaked for a few hour.s in Wai%i watcf.'
The seeds are sown about one-half inch deep and as in the ca.so of carrots, parsnips and celery there Is danger that the surface soil may dry out beforo the young plants ure nv. To prevent tbis, if the plants are started Indoors, the box Ig often covered with cheesecloth or with a newspni>er. or the row ia cov¬ ered with a bound if the seeds are sown in the garden. These coverings must be removed promptly when the secd- inga begin to break through the ground.
Once started, the plants are hardy and a few of them should bo in evciT garden. Mlsa Curled Is a standard va¬ riety, say the gardeners at the State College of Agriculture.
