FRIDAY. MAY 29. “1 he Story of Waitstill Baxter” Co pyrlsht, 1013, by Kate Douglas Wiggin Author of “Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm" PROLOGUE. * Strength and interest of qui , lives in the Neiv England c three-quarters of a century ag provide the framework of “Th. Story of Waitstill Baxter.” The is the skeleton. The flesh am blood of human beings, livim and loving and moving in a worlc of their own that is a miniature picture of the greater world oat side, are also there. The story is a cross section of life as see/ and described by a woman whi has been well called “America'! greatest living woman novelist.' Amid the hills of New Englanc are many men and women lik, Waitstill and Patience Baxte; and their father, Ivory Boyntor and his afflicted mother am funny Cephas Cole, who woo. hopefully, but with small chanc of success. They find their way into books but seldom, for ii takes a master hand to describi faithfully the doings of real people. And that is the reason why “The Story of Waitstill Baxter" has won highest praise from critics who know a good book when they see one. (Continued From Yesterday.) ‘lt kind o' makes me nervous to be named Rod, Aunt Boynton," said the boy, looking up from the Bible. “All the rods in these Exodus chapters do such dreadful things! They become serpents, and one of them swallows up ail the others, and Moses smites the waters with a rod, and they become blood, and the people can’t drink the water and the fish die! Then they stretch a rod across the streams and ponds and bring a plague of frogs over the land, with swarms of files and bor rible insects." "That was to show God's power to Pharaoh and melt hfs hard heart to obedience and reverence." explained Mrs. Boynton, who had known the Bible from cover to cover in her youth and could still give chapter and verst for hundreds of her favorite passages. “It took an awful lot of melting, Pha raoh’s heart!” exclaimed the boy. “Pharaoh must have been worse that Deacon Baxter! 1 wonder if they evei tried to make him good by being klnu to him! I’ve read and read, but I can’t find they used anything on. him but plagues and famines and boils and pestilences and thunder and hail and Are! Have I got a middle name. Aunt Boynton, for I don't like Rod very much ?’ “I never heard that you had a middle name; you must ask Ivory,” said his aunt abstractedly. “Did my father name me Rod, or mj toother?” , “I don’t really know. Perhaps It was your mother, but don't ask questions, please." “I forgot, Aunt Boynton! Tee, 1 think perhaps my mother named me Mothers ’most always name their ba bles, don’t they? My mother wasn't like you, she looked Just like the pic ture of Pocahontas in my history. 8b never knew about these Bible rods, I guess.” “When you go a little further you will find pleasanter things about rods.' said his aunt, knitting, knitting In tensely, as was her habit, and talking as if her mind were 1,000 miles away “You know they were Just llttlf branches of trees, and it was onl.t God's power that made them wonder ful in any way.” “Oh! I thought they were like tk< singing teacher's stick be keeps tlim with.” “No; If you look at your concordant you’ll And it gives you a chapter In Numbers where there’s somethin:' beautiful about rods. I have forgottei the place. It has been many year since I looked at It. Find It and rear it aloud to me.” The boy searched bb concordance and readily found the ref erence in the 17th chapter of Numbers “Stand near me and read,” said Mrs Boynton. “1 like to bear the Blbl< read aloud!” Rodman took his Bible and read slowly and haltingly, but with clear ness and understanding: “1. And tbe Lord spake unto Moses saying, KATE DOUGLAS WIGGIN ,T 2. Speak unto the children of Israel, and take of every one of them a rod according to the house of their fathers of all their princes according to tin house of their fathers twelve rods write thou every man’s name upon Ills rod.” Through the boy’s mind there darted the flash of a thought, a sad thought He himself was a Hod on whom nc man’s name' seemed to be written, or phan that he was. with no kuowledgi of his parents! Suddenly he hesitated, for he had caught sight of the unrae of Aaron iu the verse that he was about to read and did not wish to pronounce it In his aunt's hearing. “This chapter is most too hard foi me to jend out loud, Aunt Boynton,” he stammered. "Can I study it by my self and read It to Ivory first?” “Go on, go on. you read very sweet ly. 1 cannot remember what comes and 1 wish to hear it.” The boy continued, but without rals lng his eyes from the Bible: “8. And thou shalt write Aaron's name upon the rod of Levt: for one rod shall be for the bead of the house of their fathers. “4. And thou shalt lay them up in the tabernacle of the congregation be fore the testimony, where I will meet with you. “5. And it shall come to pass that the man’s rod, whom 1 shall choose [||P^223Si Rodman Took His Bible and Read. shall blossom: and 1 will make to cease from me the murmurings of the chll Uren of Israel, whereby they murmur against you.” Rodman had read on, absorbed in the stpry and the picture it presented to bis imagination. He liked the idea of all the princes having a rod accord lng to the house of their fathers. He liked to think of the little branches being laid on the altar in the taber nacle, and above all he thought of the longing of each of the princes to have his own rod chosen for the blossom ing. “6. And Moses spoke unto the chil dren of Israel, and every one of their princes gave him a rod apiece, for each prince one. according to their father’s bouses, even twelve rods; and the rod of Aaron was among their rods.” Oh! bow the boy hoped that Aaron’s branch would be the one chosen to blossom! He felt that his aunt would be pleased, too. but he read on steadily, with eyes that glowed and breath that came and went In a very palpitation of Interest: ”7. And Moses laid np the rods be fore the Lord in the tabernacle of wit ness. ”8. And it came to psss, that on the morrow Moses went into the taber nacle of witness: and. heboid, the rod of Aaron was budded and brought forth buds, and bloomed blossoms, and yielded almonds.’’ It was Aaron's rod, then, and was an almond branch! How beautiful, for the blossoms would have been pink and how the people must have mar veiled to see the lovely blooming thing on the dark tiltar, flrat budding, then blossoming, then benring nuts! And what was the rod chosen for* He bur ried on to the next verse: “8. And M.>.e« brought out nil th< rods from before the Lord unto all tin children of Israel: and they looked, urn took every man bis rod. "10. And the l.ord said uuto Moses Bring Aaron's rod again before the tes tlmony to be kept for a token against the rebels; and thou shalt quite takt away their murmurings from me, that they die not.” “Oh, Auut Boynton,” cried the boy. "I love my name after I’ve heard about the almond rod! Aren't you proud that it’s uncle’s name that was written on the one that blossomed?" He turned swiftly to find that his aunt's knitting had slipped on the floor; her nerveless hands drooped by her side as If there were no life In them, and her head had fallen agatns' the back of her chair. The boy was paralyzed with fear at the sight of her closed eyes and the deathly' pallor ol her face. lie had never seen her like this before, and Ivory was away. He flew for a bottle of spirit, always kepi In the kitchen cupboard for emergen cies, and throwing wood on the Are In passing, he swung the crane so thai the tea kettle was over the flame. ll< knew only the humble remedies that he had seen used here or there in ill ness and tried them timidly, praying every moment that he might hear Ivory’s step. He warmed a soapstone in the embers and, taking off Mrs Boynton’s shoes, put it under her cold feet. He chafed her hands and gently poured a spAonful of brandy between her pale lips. Then, sprinkling cam phor on a handkerchief, he held it to her nostrils, and to his joy she stirred in her chair; before muuy minutes her lids fluttered, her lips moved, and she put her hand to her heart, “Are you better, aunt dear?” Rod asked in a very wavering and tearful voice. She did not answer; she only opened her eyes and looked at him. At length she whispered faintly, “I want Ivory; I want my son.” “H 's out. aunt dear. Shall I help you to bed the way Ivory does? If you’ll let me. then I’ll run to the bridge ’cross lots like lightning and bring him back.” She assented and, leaning heavily on his slender shoulder, walked feebly into her bedroom off the living room Rod was ns gentle as a mother, and he was familiar with all the little offices that could be of any comfort—the soapstone warmed again for her feet, the bringing of her nightgown from the closet and when she was in bed another spoonful of brandy in hot milk; then the camphor by her side, an extra homespun blanket over her and the door left open so that she could see the open tire that he made into a cheerful huddle, contrived so that it would not snap and throw out danger ous sparks iu his absence. All the while he was doing this Mrs. Boynton lay quietly in the bed talking to herself fitfully in the fnlnt murmuring tone that was habitual to her. He could distinguish scarcely anything, only enough to guess that her mind was still on the Bible story that he wns reading to her when she fainted. “The rod of Aaron was among the other rods,” he heard her say, and a moment later, “Bring An ron’s rod agnin before the testimony." Was it his uncle’s name that had so affected her? wondered the boy. al most sick with remorae, although he had tried his best to evade her com mand to read the chapter aloud. Whni would Ivory, his hero, his pattern and example, say? It had always been Rod's pride to carry his little share of every burden that fell to Ivory, to be faithful and helpful In every task glv en to him. He could walk through lire without flinching, he thought. If Ivory told him to, and he only prayed that he might not be held responsible for this new calamity. “I want Ivery!” came In a feeble rolce from the bedroom. “Does your side ache worse?" Rod asked, tiptoeing to the door. “No. I am quite free from pain.” "Would you be afraid to stay alone Just for awhile if I lock both doors and run to find Ivory and bring him back?" “No. I will sleep,” she whispered, closing her eyes. “Bring him quickly before I forget what I want to say to him.” Rod sped down the lane and over the fields to tbe brick store where Ivory usually bought his groceries His cousin was not there, but one of the men came out and offered to take his horse and drive over the bridge to see if he were at one of the neighbors' on that side of the river. Not a word did Rod breathe of his aunt's Illness; be simply said that she was lonesome for Ivory, and so be came to find him In five minutes they saw the Boynton horse bitched to a tree by tbe roadside, and In a trice Hod called him and. thanking Mr. Blxby, got Into Ivory’s wagon to wait for him. He tried bis best to explain tbe situation as they drove along, but finally concluded by saying: “Aunt really made me read the chapter to her. Ivory. I tried not to when I saw uncle's name in moet ev ery verse, but I couldn't help It” “Of course you couldn't! Now you Jump out nnd hlfcb the horse while 1 nin In and see that nothing has hap pened while she’s been left alone Perhaps you'll have to go for Dr. Per ry" (Tb Be Continued Tomorrow.)

Of all the bet tor known Issues, Rending alone held fairly steady. Conditions were unchnnged during the mid-session except for substantial gains In a few specialties, including Reel Sug ar, whch rose 2 points on Reports of nn advance In the raw product. London sold moderately put persistently here, chiefly of steel. Bonds wore easy. The market closed steady. Tn final dealings prices of leading issues rose to their best. CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET Chicago.—Although rumors that shorts might suffer a sjiusese today in tho wlioat pit aroused* considerable interest, developments seemed to point tho other way. The fact that this was the last day for delivery on May contracts form ed the chief basis for predictions that the market would tighten to an uncom fortable degree. Prices opened the same us last night to 3-8 higher In sympathy with firm cables. There was a slight further advance and then all of the gain was gradually wiped out. Further rains in Argentine grave corn a lift. The opening, which was un changed to 3-8 higher, was followed by an additional bulge except in May, for which there seemed to be but little de mand. Complaints of continued crop damage despite recent rains put strength Into oats. Provisions were Inclined to sag with prices at the yards. May wheat whs amply supplied throughout, the session. Prices finished easy, 1- Bto 1-4aß-8 under last night. In the last hour May ''orn rose sharp ly on account of belated covering by shorts. The close was at 74, a rlso of 3 1-4 over last night. x Open.
