WHEN I John Jubber, vi-t.-:a:i
butler lit tlie Orange took 1j
t't C ocliwk tea things line e vim tag
( L was the footman's place, strli-:!.-S
r.ktng, to do so, but knowing tii.it
1 two old ladles preferred mo, I
i vb ninile a point of doing no),
of thin, I think It was Mt.ss Ma
ti i. miiI il :
Well. .lubber, and vhnt do yon
' of the new bousetiuild ? Tell
i candidly, do you think she, will
it?
"I think, ma'am," I rnplkvl, "sha
Is a remarkably good-looking yountt
Woman. You see. Ina'am, she only
came yesterday, so It 19 Impossibles
for me to fell exactly. I can only say
be seeniH a respectable girl enough,
And certainly very clean and tidy,
ma'am."
"Yes, she Is very presentable, cer
tainly," chimed In Miss June; "but
you know, Jubber, we want some
thing more than good looks.
"You see, Jubber, Ann I'reedy had
been hern so many years, and my sla
ter and I were so familiar with her
Ways, that we cannot get used to a
new maid very quickly. Still, you
understand, we have such very great
fnlth In your opinions upon all do
mestic affairs, Jubber, that if you
expressed yourself satisfied with
Mary Blake we should feel quite easy
In our minds.
"So we will ask you, Jubber, to
keep your eyes on her, and to re
port to us on her general conduct,
and bo on, in say, a week's tlma
from now."
Well, I did keep an eye on the
young woman, as I was told, and a
week of her acquaintance only con
firmed my original Impression
namely, that she was as good-looking
a girl as ono would wish to see--.
auburn hair, slightly Inclined to red,
trim, compact little figure, and such
a foot and ankle! I wouldn't give n
thank you for the prettiest woman
In England, I assure you, if she had
n't neat feet and ankles. And those
Mary Blake certainly possessed. She
was wonderfully quick, and neat,
too, in her housework.
The first morning after she came I
Superintended In person her dusting
of the old china in the drawing
rotm. I could not have done It bet
myself. Well, It's a remarkable
' "instance, that every blessed
ling after that did I find myself
a toward the drawing room,
re Mary Blake was busy dusting
ornamonts.
'Are you fond of china?" said I,
one morning, as I watched the new
housemaid tenderly taking up a llt
tJe Dresden sheperdess.
"Oh, yes," she exclaimed. "I can
assure you, Mr. Jubber, that dusting
this room of a morning is a labor of
love to me; It Is, truly. My late mis
tress gave me a book all about old
china, and I I know something
about It, sir. Next to listening to
music I think I like to look at beau
tiful china. And, oh! Mr. Jubber,
how lovely you do perform on that
Violin! When you was playing last
night In your room I sat and listen
ed, and It was a treat to a poor girl.
Yes, and when you played 'Home,
Sweet Home,' oh! Mr. Jubber, you
don't know how I felt.
"Oh! Mr. Jubber, I could not help
crying. I I c-c-cannot help It now.
Oh! Mr. J-J-Jubber, f-f-forglve me,
wo-o-n't you? I c-c-can't help It.
you are so k-k-klnd to me."
And, with that, blessed If she
didn't throw herself Into my arms,
fobbing as If her heart would break.
Well, all I can say Is, when a young
and lovely woman In distress twines
her arms round the neck of a sus
ceptible man, and goes on as Mary
Blake did to me that morning, I
Imagine there Is only one thing that
man can do under the circumstances,
and I did It, you may he sure. I In
short kissed her!
I beat a somewhat undignified and
hasty retreat.
Curiously enough, that very morn
ing made up the week that my mis
tress had given me In which I was to
form an estimate of the character of
Mary Blake.
"I am happy to say," I reported
"that I consider Mary Blake perfect
in every possible way. She Is modest
and unassuming In her manner, and
I am bound to say that as a house
maid I never yet saw her equal. I
think, ma'am," I wound up, "the
most fragile china In the world
would be perfectly safe If she had
the handling of It."
"My dear Jane," exclaimed Miss
Matilda, clapping her hands together
In great delight "my dear Jane,
never were, I do believe, such lucky
people as we are. We have actually
found another treasure."
Well, dear reader, the Interest I
took In Mary Blake's career still
continued, and I found myself every
morning superintending the dusting
operations In the drawing room. The
roguish blue eyes (no longer with
tears In 'era) would still look into
mine In the same pleading, trustful
way; the brother and sisterly kiss
would still pass between us.
"John Jubber John Jubber!" I
said to myself," this will not do, my
boy. Ton who have made a vow of
perpetual celibacy to go falling In
love Ilk this, for that's what It Is,
there's no mistake about It; you
Ought to be ashamed of yoursulf."
The nest morning I avoided the
drawing room at dusting time. Re
sultthere waa a reproachful look
In the blue eyes. I detet mined,
1 hough, to be firm, rind the next
morning, as before, to keep clear of
the drawing room. Alas! for my
resolution.
Happening to pass the door quite
b; nccident, of r-outse I heard a
pound as of some one choking with
In. Mary 111, perhaps, I thought to
Juys( If, and at once opened the door.
Yes, there she was, sitting on the
Horn with her head burled in the
cushion, sobbing as If her heart
would break.
"What Is the matter. Mary, my
dear?" I exclaimed, drying her eyes
with her own duster as I spoke.
"Oh! go away go-a aw-a-a-y,"
ehe sobbed.
"No, no; tell mo what Is the mat
ter what are you crying for?"
Said 1.
"Oh! Mister Jubber, I 1-o-o-ve you
so-o, and you're s-s-so cruel!" Rhe
replied, sobbing away louder than
ever.
Well, here was a pretty go. Of
course,.! made a fool of myself, and
swore I loved her In return, and all
the rest of It, If only to keep her
quiet.
"And you will be k-klnd to me,
and let me help you clean the
p-p-plate, as you promised?" said
she.
"Oh! yes, of course I will, Mary,
my dear," I replied, sealing the
promise with a kiss. "And now bo
off, and I'll finish your dusting for
you."
Well, I dusted away at the china
ornaments, thinking alt the while
what a fool I had made of myself,
and was about to leave the room,
when by the sofa on which I had
found Mary reclining, I caught sight
of a crumpled piece of paper. It wan
a letter, and as It commenced "Dear
roll," I guessed at once who It be
longed to. So I pocketed it, mean
ing to hand it to Mary when I next
law her nlone.
Now, I am not an Inquisitive man,
as a rule, but before I got to my pan
try I could no more resist reading
that letter than a moth could avoid
going at a candle. This Is what It
said
Dear Poll Hasn't that there old
Spooney let you have a sight of the
plate yet? Get to see It Immediate,
as Bill and me want to do the crack
next week, and Oliver's (the writer
alluded In his slang, to the moon)
hold of the old girl's diamonds, you
ran do 'em up ready for us at the
same time. Further pertlklers oa
hearing from you.
The kids Is all well, and so am I,
and I remain, yours affectionate,
Joseph Maggs.
P. S. Is there a Barker on the
premises?
It didn't want much acumen to
understand this precious epistle. It
was as plain as day that the party
who wrote It meant carrying off my
mistresses' plate, and that the newly
found treasure (?), Mary Blake, was
In with the thieves.
The next thing to be done, thinks
I to myself, Is to see whether "Old
Spooney" can't get the best of Mr.
Joseph Maggs. With that in view,
after making a copy of the letter, my
first act was to go and replace It ex
actly where I found it- And it was
lucky I did, as it happened, for just
as I came out Miss Mary Blake
bounced in. She came to look for her
duster, she said, and it was quite re
freshing to note the dash she made
for the letter the moment she saw It.
Of course, I pretended not to notice
that part of the performance.
Apparently much relieved in her
mind, she now turned her attention
to me.
"Is my dear old Johnny you are
my Johnny now, aren't you? going
to show me bis pretty plate, as he
promised to-day?" says the artful lit
tle minx, looking up Into my face
with those great blue, Innocent-looking
eyes of hers, and cutting up her
face for a kiss, which I hadn't the
faintest objection to giving.
"Of course, I will, my dear," I
replied. "Come to my pantry about
11.30, and I'll show you the lot."
"Dear old thing!" exclaimed she.
"I'll come, never fear."
At the time appointed she duly
made her appearance In the pantry,
when out came the plate for her edi
fication. There was a tremendous
lot, and I showed her every bit of It.
Directly after luncheon, finding
that several things were wanted for
the house from town, I volunteered
to go myself and see about them.
Now Mr. Benjamin Bagshaw, who
was an Inspector of police at that
time (you recollect he retired lart
year?) was a particular friend of
mine. So straight to Ben's house I
went.
"John, my boy," said Ben, when I
had told him my story, and showel
him the copy of the letter to Mary
Blake, "give us your flipper." Ben
was always a bit slangy when ex
cited. "I think that if we only use
discretion and hold our tongues we
shall make such a haul as will aston
ish 'em at Scotland Yard. Now, look
ye here, John," says he; "In the first
place all letters to and fro between
Mary Blake, housemaid, and Joseph
Maggs burglar, must be Intercepted.
That will b-u, of course, my business.
"In the second place, you must go
home and make love to blue-eyed
Mary oh I the dear, sweet little In
nocent," laughed Ben "fiercer than
ever.
"Thirdly and lastly, you must go
out everw afternoon and meet me
at four In the little spinney
as runs along the Walllngton road,
so that we can keep each other well
posted."
What we were anxiously waiting
for the letter from Joe Maggs to
Mary Blake, saying when the plant
Waa to come off, and at last, on the
Mghth day, Ben, with the very broad"
est grin you ever saw on a human
countenance, announced that It had
arrived.
Joe Maggs thanked his dear Tolly
for the plan of the house and the
pnitlculnrs of the swag, nnd he and
his pal would be waiting outside the
house at 2 o'clock In the morning on
Thursday. Sho was to undo the bolts
of the front door, so that they could
slip In, and they would then go
straight to "Old Spooney's" room,
gag and bind him If necessary, and
walk off with the plate. Finaliy, Bhe
was to give some of "she knew
what to the dog.
"Ah! that bit about the dog re
minds me," said Hen; "you'd bettor
get the noble animal away some
where, John, for the night."
We settled nil our plans. When
everybody had gone to bed I was to
let the Inspector and two of his men
Into the house, and secrete them on
the drawing room landing. My next
move was to undo the bolt, so that
any one could walk In. Finally, I
was to go to bed and await results.
When I kissed "Blue Eyes" be
hind the pantry door that evening, I
felt more like Judas than ever. The
only consolation 1 had was that she
was as falso as I was. On Thursday
night, having seen the last of the ser
vants off. I went softly to the hall
door and let Inspector Bagshaw nnd
his two men In the house.
Now, though I was not Jealous of
my friend, the Inspector, yet I did
not see why I should not contribute
my mite toward the enpture. There
fore, before I went to bed (which I
did with my clothes on, underneath
my nightshirt) I was careless
enough to leave a decanter three
parts full of port wine doctored, do
you think, expressly for the bur
glarious party? Well, I shouldn't
wonder If it was.
At 1.30 o'clock I went to bed.
Shortly after 2 I heard a noise, and
I set up the most awful snoring you
ever heard. I kept my ears open,
though, all the time. I heard thetn
at the plate chest; I had foolishly
left It open. I heard 'em shift its
contents into a bag or bngs, and then
and then (and I give you my word I j
clmost burst out laughing) I heard
'em pegging away at the wine.
"Bllmy! the cove might ha' been
genteel enough to ha' left lis out a
wineglass what do you think,
Bill?" Iheard some ono say, as he
filled one of the tumblers which I
had purposely left on the table so ns
to be handy.
I had not long to wait for what I
had expected.
"Joe," I heard the other man say,
"I feel precious queer quite drow
sy like."
"Oh, you'll be all right directly
you gets into the fresh air," growled
Joe, In reply. "Come, All up once
more, and then we'll mizzle."
A loud snore was the response.
Again I listened and then cau
tiously took a peep at the burglars.
They were both fast asleep.
Out of the bed I Jumped like a
harlequin, fished out some Btrong
cord I had purchased expressly for
the occasion, and bound the legs and
arms of the insensible Joe Maggs
and his friend until they looked for
all the world Just like a pair of
trussed fowls. Next I lit my lamp
and every candle I could lay my
hands upon, and finally I blew my
whistle for help.
In rushed Inspector Bagshaw and
his two men, and stopped paralyzed
with wonder at the sight before him
the plate all packed, the two bur
glars neatly secured. Ben, for once,
was fairly puzzled.
"Why, how the what the whats
the meaning of It all?" he stam
mered, looking from me to the two
men and then at me again.
I struck an attitude, and, pointing
to Joe Maggs and his friend, ob
served quietly, after the manner of
a conjurer at the conclusion of a
difficult feat of sleight-of-hand
"That's how it's done!"
Mild Ducks Storked Fish Pond.
Many people, not without educa
tion and a general knowledge of
natural history, are mystified by the
presence of fish In enclosed waters.
For many years there was open
mouthed wonder over the perch,
bream and crayfish found In the new
ly cut dams near the Maguarle River
In New South Wales. In some cases
the water had scarcely settled after
the rain had filled the dam when
the fish were observed, and the Aus
tralian farmers started a theory of
spontaneous production.
This obtained and gained wide
credence until a Sydney professor
chanced to pick up a wild duck and
found Its breast feathers well dotted
with fertile and almost hatched fish
ova, on which the "spontaneous pro
duction" theory was promptly with
drawn. Clot Worn by English Workers.
An acknowledged authority has
estimated there are at least 4,000.
000 pairs of clogs sold In the north
ern counties of England every year.
Different woods are preferred in
different districts. The workers In
factories and other Indoor occupa
tions in such districts as Bolton,
Oldham and Preston prefer a sole
made from either alder or birch,
while In the colliery dUtriota, such
as Wlgan, beech, birch and ash are
most generally used, the first named
In such Instance being In greatest
demand. Some Idea of the immense
quantity of soles used may be gath
ered from an estimate that each pair
of clogs will be resoled twice before
being replaced by a new pair, thus
averaging three pair of soles to the
life of one pair of clogB.
Motor cars are now carried to sea
by some of the officers of the British I
navy, for use la foreign ports. I
MIDNKillT TIME KOIt CHIME
lletween 10 nnd 12 O'clock Majority
of Deeds Occur.
If ono Is murdered In England, the
event, It appears. Is most likely to
happen between the hours of 10p. J:
and mldnlt;l;t. Till U no attempt
at prophecy, but fie logical d-duc-:
tion from an oMclal vej ort Jm't
i Issued of tlie criminal rtatlstlcs of
, Fnclund n:id Wnles. The cham-es
ar. greatest, too, that one who Id
: to meet a violent death at the hands
of a follow creature will receive his
or her quietus on a Saturday nlsht.
It does not need any great amount bf
I sychologlfal research to account
for this. The last day In the week
Is pay day nnd generally a half holi
day anions the poorer classes. It U
then most liquor Is consumed and
, ev!l passions. Inflamed by drink, lead
to brawls and bloodshed.
But the fact as shown by the stat
istics, that Thursday's averago of
bloody deeds Is second only to Satur
day's may quite possibly Indicate
j that this day Is the more popular
: among the fashionable assassins.
I Great tnurd'M-:'. those Involving
I prominent people, seldom are com
J niltted on a Saturday night, but In a
majority of cases, it appears, on h
Thursday.
There are only 14 hours during
the whole week one may rest practi
cally Immune from the assnsstn's
knife, and that time Is between 4
and fi o'clock every morning. The
statistics show very few murders are
perpetrated during that period.
The greatest majority of persons
murdered are women. An examina
tion of criminal records for 20 years
back shows men have slain women iu
the greatest number of Instance
through Jealousy and drink. Women
are driven to commit murder chiefly
through extreme poverty and their
victims are mostly children.
That the nervous nge In which we
live Is resulting In n large and steady
Increase, in suicides is generally
known, but the fact as shown In the
report that three men commit buIcI.1j
to one woman. Is rather surprising.
It Is Interesting to note that sulcldu
Is almost the only offenco In which
there appears to bo a steady l;i
crearo. Th? general movement of
crime Is to decrease.
Fifty-nine per cent, of murderers'
are between 21 nnd 40 years old,
nnd most of them, au already stated,
nro men. The largest number of
persons sentenced to death in any
one year since 18S5, was 41, in
1893. In 1901 there were 4.1 S3
habitual criminals at large; In 1905
the number was 4,033.
Trevnlence of Flat Font,
Flat foot Is a very common aflllc
tlon. It Is also one which Is fre
quently overlooked by physicians,
says the Medical Brief.
The patient complains of pnln In
the heel, the ankle, the Inner border
of the foot, great toe, the muscle
of the calf, the knee or even the hly.
The busy practitioner notes thes3
symptoms In a hurried, casual way,
attributes them to rheumatism, pre
scribes salicylates and whnt not, and
another flat footed individual plods
his weary way.
Increased deformity Is added to
what may havo been merely foot
strain In the first place. A curabld
case has become wellnlgh Incurable,
and the medical profession Is agal.i
Justly liable to well deserved cen
sure. Any factor which tends to dimin
ish the muscular power of the foot
may cause fiat foot. A great in
crease in the weight born by the foot
may cause It.
This increase In weight may be
actual, such as occurs In people who
put on a great deal of fat, or It may
be relative, such as occurs in ath
letes, jumpers especially. But by
far the most common cause Is a
cramping of the foot, brought about
by Improper shoes.
For treatment of this condition
mechanical support to the deformed
foot Is practically all that Is neccs
sary. This mechanical support la
best afforded by means of the foot
plate made from highly tempered
steel and moulded upon a plaster
cast of the foot.
The footplate should be worn a
long as It is required, but no longer.
Additional wearing of the plate be
yond the time necessary, as Indi
cated by the symptoms, Is simply an
additional cause of harm. With thrf
footplate a shoe should be worn
fitting the normal contour of the
foot.
