FARMER, JR., ATTORNEY AT LAW Her One Weakness A Story of Old Virginia By EUNICE BLAKE Tbnt puniusttln which lies between Chesapeake bay ami the James river Is replete with Interesting associations. It was there that the first settlement was made In -North America, there sprauft tip the patriarchal system of the plantation, and there occurred one of the most noted struggles In a war that resulted In the downfall of that system. The second of these periods Is the most delightful to contemplate. The descendant of the cavalier bad become the planter. His sons were flue men; his daughters were possessed of many virtues. The age of chivalry had not yet given way to the more matter of fact existence that hus pervaded the south since the war between the states. About Williamsburg, the seat of William and Mary college, were scat tered fnmllles wbo were the flower of the Virginia aristocracy. Edward Fit*. Herbert, a planter living In this sec tion, was blessed with sons and daugh ters who had grown up among cos- toms that had been Inherited from the defenders of King Charles i. At this time, when the family off Mr. and Mr*. Fltx-Herbert were passing from youth to manhood and woman hood. an Invalid. Bleeker van Tromp. went from New Torlr to Williamsburg, hoping that the climate of Virginia might restore him to health. There be met Eugenia Fits-Herbert, a typi cal southern girl, with a wealth of raven black hair, a complexion like the mingling of tbe magnolia and the rose, and a bewitching figure. If there was one virtue amoDg the southern planters of those days more prominent than others It wns hospital ity. Bleeker van Tromp brought let ters to the Fltz-Herberts and was re ceived and Introduced by them to the planters of tbe peninsula. Eugenia Fltz-Herbert wns drawn to him through pity for bis lack of strength. Induced by 111 health, and be was drawn to ber on account of an attrac tiveness that captivated all who knew ber. The life lived by these people waB very like thut of the country gentry of England. They gave house parties and rode to hounds. Eugenia was a fine horsewoman and fond of bunting, but. since Bleeker was not strong enough to engage In the sport, from the goodness of her heart she often made excuses to remain behind when bunting parties were formed that she might alleviate his disappointment. For while his body was weak Ills splr It was eager for action. Will give careful and rrompt attention to all legal buaines entrusted to me.

It was not loDg before he worshiped her. Her father and brothers noticed the grow ing attachment and frowned upon It. their Ideal for a husband for thla flow er of tbe family being some man of prominence, some commanding figure upon whom the people of tbe aoutb would look ns a lender. Van Tromp. whatever might be his talents and at tainments. was not strong enough even to enjoy the manly sports of u Virginia gentleman. Eugenia, understanding this con tempt held by her father and brothers for tbe want of vigor on the part of tbe man she loved, was troubled. When It was referred to by one of them she replied with fire In her eye that for tunately there was a way by which a weak man might show that be was equal, if not superior, to a strong man if It became necesBury to do so, and she referred to tbe code duello, where tbe wenker could pull the hair trigger of a pistol with the same facility as the stronger. This defect In her lover continued to trouble Eugenio. She nursed It and brooded over It. not because she con sidered It a defect, but because she was conscious that ber family and her associates regarded Van Tromp as one who could not take a position In the community In which she lived such as she would desire. At any rate, she felt so deeply on the subject that she failed to conceal It from her lover. Not only did tbe New Yorker learn It from Eugenia, bat one of her broth ers. who was friendly to him, said to him one day: "Bleeker. why don’t you challenge a a fire eater and shoot him? That will satisfy everybody, nnd they'll let you alone.” •’Because." was the reply. “I don’t rare to kill a man simply to prove that ’in not a coward." There came to the peninsula from .New Orleans a creole named L* Bouf. who wns received In tbe social circle of tbe planters and. being a young man of aristocratic manners and having an aggressive way with him, was very popular with the women. He was not a moo to brook any obstacle to bis de sires or advancement and waa Inclined to treat those whom be considered bis Inferiors with a alient contempt more galling than outspoken superiority. What are now states united In reali ty as well as In name were then sep arate colonies, fn many respects an tagonistic. There was certainly noth ing In common between Louisiana, which waa mostly French, and New York, which was s mixture of Dutch and English. France and England were especially antagonistic, and the Loulaianan’a sympathies were all with France. This and the fact that he wns absorbed in himself antagoniz ed hhu against Van Trump, and the latter’s delicate physical condition In duced l,e llouf to treat him as one un worthy of uny consideration except the most formal politeness. The two men might have existed In the same social circle Indellnltoly hail not l.e Bout been charmed by Eugenia Eltz-Herbert. As Soon as he began to pay her noticeable attention she saw that the fact troubled \ an Trump. To analyze a woman's reasons for an act la usually a hopeless task Eu- geulo gave Le Bouf some alight en couragement. Why she did so no one could tell. Some thought It an ordinary desire to pique hltn with a view to assure herself that she held him In thrall. Some thought that she had been captivated with that aggressive air of superiority which the creole as sumed over most of those with whom he came In contact The event proved that she was Influenced by neither of these. When a mnn loves a woniHn and an other man Intrudes hlmseir between him and her. unless she makes a quick decision between the two. there ts lia ble to be trouble between the men. Eugenia, while she did not change In her treatment of Vnn Tromp. gave Le Bouf just enough encouragement to cause him to think he might win her. The blood between the rivals grew hot ter apace, and It wns not long before, one evening wbtle the yonng men of the neighborhood were regaling them selves at the tavern, Le Bouf spoke contemptuously to Vnn Trump. Instant ly all conversation ceased, the party be ing shocked by the acL Had the cre ole spoken the same to any other of the men present there would have been resentment followed by a duel. What would tbe weakling do? Van Tromp seemed pleased rather than Irritated. Taking a glove from his pocket, be drew it lightly semes the face of his tnsnlter. "This Is all wrong." exclaimed one of the VlrginlnDB. "Mr. Van Tromp la an Invalid.” “Gentlemen.’’ said Van Tromp, ru ing, ”1 have never approved of tbe method of settling disputes more prev alent In the south than with us In tbe north, but I confess that It is a boon to me. 1 may not be able to stnnd up against on enemy with a rapier, but 1 need no strength to lire a pistol. If 1 am challenged the choice of weapons rests with me. and 1 shall choose the latter. And. furthermore. 1 propose to kill my enemy." There was a cold bloodedness In the speaker's tone that Impressed those present nnd sent n chill to Le Bout Nothing more was snld at tbe time, the party breaking up. The sympa thies were with Van Tromp because be was an Invalid, because be was much liked nnd because tbe creole's assumption of superiority bad preju diced them against him. One of tbe young men offered to stnnd as Van Tramp’s substitute In tbe nffnlr, but he declined the offer with thunks, ex pressing surprise that it had been made. Lc Bouf saw at once that be waa In an unfortunate position. He was com pelled to challenge Van Tramp, who he knew bad the sympathies of the others present and would, when tbe affair became known, elicit tbe sympa thies of the planters generally. On consultation with others be was ad vised to send Van Tromp an apology for tbe words spoken at tbe tavern. He did so. nnd a reply was returned that the apology was not accepted. He then reluctantly Bent a challenge, which Van Tromp placed In the hnnds of a friend with Instructions to choose the derringer pistol used In duels. Tbe seconds arranged that tbe meeting should take place In a secluded spot the next morning, the second after the Insult It was impossible to keep the meet ing a secret The afternoon previous to the meeting a brother of Eugenia said to her: •’Gene. Van Tramp Is to have n chance to prove bis mettle. He’s going to meet Le Bouf tomorrow morning.” Eugenia turned pale. “When and where?” she asked eagerly. “Nobody knows. It’s only known that they’re going to fight" Eugenia said no more, but sought tbe cabin of Bam, a negro, who adored ber and would have given bis life for ber. 8be Instructed him to discover and let her know tbe time and place of tbe coming duel. Sam gained tbe Informa tion from tbe servants or the princi pals. the negroes having lain In wait for It at the keyhole. The next day. when. In the gray of the morning, two dnellat parties had assembled. Eugenia rode up to tbe ground. Jumped from her horse and ad vanced to a point between them. “I am to blame for this,” she said. “It must go no further.” The principals stood still and said nothing. One of tbe seconds, after an embar rassing pause, asked Le Bouf If be would withdraw hla challenge. “Certainly.” be said. “Anything tbe lady commands." "Do you permit tbe withdrawal T Van Tromp was asked. “No.” Eugenis looked at him reproachfully. “Not for my sakel" “No.” was tbe Ann reply. “Let ns proceed." Eugenia went to him. kneeled before him and begged him to yield. He was obdurate until ebe assured him that should blood be (pifled It would be on ber account and It would wreck ber life. Then he threw down bis pistol and walked away. But he never forgave ber for tbe one little bit of feminine weakness that had led ber to place him at enmity with a fellow being. WHY WE CAN’T FLY The Reason Man Is Unable to Rise in the Air Like a Bird. HE LACKS THE BREASTBONE. In the Bird It Is Very Massive end Developed Like the Keel of u Yacht, and Therein Lies the Secret ol Its Enormous Wing Power. Mnn has always Ionised to M,v like a bird, and all the ancient attempts at flight were based upon the Happing of wings attached to human arms These efforts were given up long ago when It was realized that mini wns not and could not he strong enough to sustain himself In the air by the use ol' Ills arms. A man van only Just lift himself with Ills arms—chinning the bnr. for example—hut he finds himself pretty heavy alter he has done It a few times. The reason why no mnn will ever bo able to fly with self moved wings Is that his breastbone Is not big enough. A bird's breastbone bag along Its mid- die a deep keel, from which spring the enormous muscles that draw down the wings when flapping or hold them level when soaring, the muscles. In other words, that support tho entire weight of the bird. Tho most powerful fliers have the deepest breastbones. Look at tbe skel eton of an albatross, a condor or a bumming bird In a museum and you will notice (hat tbe keel of Its breast bone projects like tbs keel of • racing yacht. Ton can see this keel, only much smaller In proportion to tbe Rise of tbe bird, on the carcass of any chicken or turkey after tbe meat has been re moved. and tbe tender white flesh from the breast is nothing but the muscles with which the bird flew when alive. You notice that even on a chicken, which is one of the weakest of fliers, this flesh forms the greater part of tbe body. On a bumming bird there Is lit. tie else but this mass of flying muscla In other words, the humming bird Is nothing but n tiny flying machine. An albatross has a vast spread of wings, and Its small body Is little else but a pulr of powerful pectoral mus cles. These are attached by tendons to the bone called the humerus, which Is the counterpart of the upper arm bone of a mnn. They sprend out like n solid fan nnd nre fastened to the breastbone with Its deep keel, to the clavicles, or “wishbone,'’ nnd to the ribs. A man’s breastbone has no keel. His humerus, or upper arm bone, Is binged to the clavicle, or collarbone, nnd shoulder blade. His pectoral muscles, which move the arm forward, nnd del toid muscles, which lift It. are attach ed to It by strong tendons and sprend fanlike over Ills upper chest, being In serted In the ribs nnd collarbone. These are the muscles thnt do the same work for man ns the pectoral musdeH do for n bird. These are the muscles on which he would have to rely If he were to fasten wings to his arms nnd try to fly. Compare these muscles with those of an albatross and you will see how In adequate they are Though an alba tross weighs only n few pounds. It has pectoral muscles that are nctually lar ger than those of the most powerful athlete. In order to have muscles powerful enough to lift his weight In the sir by HALF YOUR LIVING FROM YOUR GARDEN Big Saving to Farmer and City Man la Possible Through Home- Grown Vegetables Atlanta, Ga.—(Special.)—The farm er who makes and keeps going this year a real home garden, will save fully one-half the money he has veen In the habit of paying the supply mer chant for his food supplies. The man with a back yard city lot, turned into a garden, can save on hie living ex penses la the same proportion. The man in the city has been hit by the war just as hard as the man In the country, and here In Atlanta the Agricultural Committee of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, of which H. G. Hastings is chairman. Is actively en couraging the back yard city garden as one of the most effective steps In solving the problem of living. One At. Ian tan made $150 worth of vegetables last year on less than one-elxteenth of an acre. Others have been encourag ed to try It, and this spring will see Atlanta full of home gardens. "The fanners of the South, In my opinion,” Mr. Hastings said, “have well learned the lesson of the cotton crisis, and I believe they are going to keep It learned. They realise now as nsver before that they must make cotton their servant Instead of their master, and making food crops Is the only way to do It "The first big step toward the solu tion of this problem Is the home gar den—an all-the-year-round garden— one that ts kept busy growing food tor the table every month In the year. A garden like this means a saving of half the living expense of any family; It Is worth more as a money saver than any five acres of cotton ever grown. "City families pay fancy prices for vegetables and other food products which the farmer can have on his ta ble without the expenditure of a dol lar, and this would mean to the farm ers of the South sn aggregate saving of millions of dollars they are now paying out annually for food supplies, that might be turned Into bank ac counts." You Need a Tonic There arc times in every woman’s life when she needs a tonic to help her over the hard places. When that time comes to you, you know what tonic to take—Cardui, the woman’s tonic. Cardui is com posed of purely vegetable ingredients, which act gently, yet surely, on the weakened womanly organs, and helps build them back to strength and health. It has benefited thousands and thousands of weak, ailing women in its past half century of wonderful success, and it will do the same for you. You can’t make a mistake in taking CARDUI The Woman’s Tonic Miss Amelia Wilson, R. F. D. No. 4, Alma, Ark., says: “I think Cardui is the greatest medicine on earth, for women. Before I began to take Cardui, I was so weak and nervous, and had such awful dizzy spells and a poor appetite. Now 1 feel as well and as strong as I ever did, and can eat most anything.” Begin taking Cardui today. Sold by all dealers.
