tlndale, "mid Lo must llo ou It."
Major Marllndafe lolded up a certain obnox
ious letter, 119 be ruide tills mental remarX, and
lsvlnr it lu a little glbtod letter-rack beside him,
in company with a tallot's bill, n ticket to aomo
forlh-com!ng amateur concert, and a pilnted
circular concerning "Intnranco policies," went

llo waa a handsome elderly gentleman.sllght-
Jy bald, wttti browu eyes, straight ltoman fea-
turoy, and ond of thoso square, firmly moulded
mom In which betoken a decided tendency to
havo one'd own war. And so bo drank his cof.
feu, and ilamllly manipulated his French rolls,
broiled birds, and fresh strawberries, eon ed 1n
n gan l'nro ot their own loaves, he mused ovor
the contents ot this same letter.
"It's a great mistake to allow servants to
bring lu one's correspondence ut rneuMlmcs,"
reflected Major Mnitiudalo. "It's almost sure
to Interfere with one's digeatlou. I'll never

And w, after, flnlslilng tho strawberries, and
daintily cleansing his rliboi t-uullcd lingers In a
rubr-colorcd Snger.bowl. ilalor Ma.tlndalo
wrote thiiso words oa a thics:, gray sheet ol

the tluee wirds wcro these:

That was the way In which Major Mattlndale
disposed ot his only son.
Not that be did not love Hnrly tlio bright1
