Make it two, she answered laughing.- - She was proud, hopeful, unutterably happy. The first Hugh Pendleton had come out from Connecticut in the year 1802, made his way with horses and an ox team over the hazardous mountain roads, and taken up land along the Penachang Valley in Ohio. He built a cabin near the stream and traded with the few settlers and the wandering bands of Indians. He sent for his family, his wife, with three small children, and his two brothers. Hugh started a store which flourished as the settlement grew into a village. He made trips to Pittsburgh by boat for supplies and bartered or sold, according to the need of the individual. Presently the word traveled about that two settlers, Wyant and Nash, had erected a blast furnace on the shore of the river a few miles above the settlement. They turned out stoves, kettles and castings, crude in appearance, but serviceable. Hughs trips to Pittsburgh had awakened his interest in the need persisted.

Light brown hair grew back from a curving hairline; the tracery of the brows above full eyelids might have been done by a pencil stroke; the nose was sensitive; the mouth curved and wistful. Although James Marsh had been welcomed among them as a cousin of the Clements, there was not a great deal of approval of the marriage of James and Fluvanna. There were local grievances families whose sons had yearned for Fluvanna and been passed over. Although pride in clothes was a was Pendleton credo, James thought to .lean toward too great an elegance in dress. His handsome bearing was no novelty; many of the men had that; they suspected his grace, his flattery, as qualities which did not go with the solid virtues of monogamy. As the years went by, the older ones shook their heads oracularly as reports of his irregularities came in gambling, drinking, neglecting his business, Ely Pendleton looking grim and Fluvanna, gay in- company, but when off guard, seeming frightened and distrait. Ely Pendleton died suddenly, and Fluvanna and her family moved into the old house with her mother who was an invalid. A year or two of comparative ease and prosperity followed. James was thoughtful toward the suffering mother; debts were paid; the feverish prosperity of the War was on. James made money in the stock market and it erased the galling sense of obligation he had left when old Ely, had met his pressing deficits. Mrs. Pendleton died just after Armistice day, and James was very kind that winter. Then business took a holiday, stocks slumped, and Fluvanna began a gradual parting with the income her father had left in trust for her. Her mothers money had been left to her unconditionally, and that went in appalling amounts to cover the very good securities, sure to hit a hundred and ten, which James had bought on margin. The more James lost, the more he drank, the oftener he was seen morose and truculent, leaning over his cards late at night, playing with men who were luckiei than he. Late one afternoon, the town rang with the news that he had killed himself. of - "Uh-m- m. car? sub-surfa- ter anemone most Continued "A girl is usually indebted to her mother for her charm.

In low or level places, lines of tile two to two and one-ha-lf feet below the surface should be run parallel to the road. Having provided adequate drainage, the grade may be restored or even improved. The firm dry road bed thus established will resist much heavier traffic without breaking down. Dragging will keep sand, silt or clay roads in good condition. Repeated1 at frequent, intervals, dragging tends to harden the top layers, especially in clay soils. Thus a good, firm road may be maintained by proper draining, grading and adequate dragging. If a better type of road is desired, surfacing may be considered.
