"That girl has done nothing but provoke and annoy mo oyer since sho came from school three months ago, I wish, Carrie you vvould send hcraway somewhere any- where out of tny sight.

"Why, Fred, what has the child done n..wt" she Inquired. His Tine, pale, grave face flushed a Utile, and a half contused expression came into his serious gray eyes. "This is I lie young vandal's latest achieve. ment in the Impertinent lirul" he said, with a llirrt l.iugh of chagrin as he pushed towurd her a bl- volume of some abstruse work and turned the Uy.leaf, Thereon had been sketched an inimitable portrait of himself, silting In his familiar and scholarly altitude in bis leathern cbair before his library table an Inelegant study gown banging ungracefully from his law shoulders and tho band that sup portod a Websterlan bead clutching an un tidy shock of bslr. It was too consummate a resemblance to be gratifying, and alto gether too exact for caricature; the dexter ous pencil had not In (ho least exaggerated the peculiarities of Frederick Ives, for he bad bis own little eccentricities and msn nerisms, just as we all have, if we choso to admit the fact. "It Is an amaiing likeness of yourself, Fred," was hissislrr'a laughing comment. "Possibly," he returned m that half mortified, balf angry monneij "and I dare say it may be, good for a man to see blmscjf ocoas'onally as 'others' see him.

She regarded him for a moment with a curiously Intent and questioning look, be fore which his countenance suddenly changid suddenly he seemed defensive rather than oegressive, as ono who feared Lis own weakness rather than tho strength of tho enemy, Terhops sho discerned something In his uneasiness that she wilfully declined to un derstan.l; perhaps she comprehended a pain that thrilled her more than she cared to acknowledge for she, loo,changed. "Mr. Ives," she began at lenglh, with a singular new .splendor in her sweet voice, any sarcasm is absurd between you and mo. The candid truth Is so much better always, even if it be disagreeable. I am perfctly awaro that you detest me; ttat everything I do displeases you'. You have giveu mo abundant proof of your dislike, and never yet vouchsafed me a kindness nor a coutlcsy. It is you who are ungentle you who are ungracious. Why you are so, I may not inquire; but I shall Implore our dear Carrlo to send me away, and trust that you may never again be o filleted with the presence of so luckless a person no my self." And while ho marveled if this new ami- ability, this charming combination ofhil milily and dignity, wero sincerity or a snare, she had gone, leaving him some'wlat bewildered and wholly uncomfortable.

But the black horse had not been subju gated for Fred's pleasure, evidently. The mettle that had bceu obedient to tho slight est command of one dainty, daring giri,had not been tamed fur his control.

Old man Syntax, as be was familiarly called, was one nf those unfortunate mortals whose lives are ono unbroken run ofbsd luck. Ho was always on the point of con summallng some great achievement, when a combination of disastrous circumstances would squelch all his hopes. Sadness and sorrow brooded over his early life, and grief and bereavement bad tbe drop on him In his old age. Many and many a time when he was about to get tho better of a green born in n trade, would some one lake Ibe greenhorn aside, and Syntax would be foiled. Often and often when a piece of buttered toast would be raised to his mouth, would it fall to tbe ground, aud in nine cases out of ten would the buttered side be down. And thus the whirling years went round and old man Syntax was sad and gloomy. He bad a sou named Tom, and Tom was wild and would never settle down t steady work. He and (he old man mnyrd to the vicinity of San Angelo, Texos, and soon after their arrival, when fortune was beginning to relax her features preparatory to smiling on Ibem, Tom wss hung by a mob ol lynchers who mistook Mm for an other man. He was a martyr to circum stantial evidence. The lynchers felt very sorry when they discovered their mistake, and they appointed a committee to wait upon Tom's bereaved parent and apologize. The committee called on old man Syntax "We regret the the accident, Col. Syn tax, and we assure you It shall not occur again." "tlentlemen," replied tbe old man sadly, "it's putty tough on me, but I'm glttin' kinder used to misfortune." "Had much tronble before, old man?" "Trouble! Well I should sob. Why, I've oever bsd nothing elso Vcpting trouble and disappointment." "Is that so?"
