Stlmsiin atouil In u ooiiier ami j;low eivd. lit- v;ut a tierce man and had in tlumlhablo; whiskers, albeit he was very bum II. , "Thalt jmnr tan-ler," he whispered o 'hi mm 'If. "He wants to iitilt makin' eyesi flt I.lzzle. This is too much rf a gHid thine;. First tiling you know, he'll j?ut liivd." His brow creased In a frown, he HU-ode over to itiiie hiiRe open doors anil fcnkeil a.t a sign. "SUiiisoh'h Mammoth M.rry-LIo-Kound," it iv;ul, and the jtlory of ill was tfivat. Stinison stood und coivtdiniilated t'he wljrn. It was oil enoi;nious al'fair; 'Mie letters were as laryv us men. The fflow of it, the erandeur of It was very apparent to Vuimson. At the cad of his contempla H'.nn, he slionk 'his head thoimhtfully, ilflttinilnedly. "No, no," .lie murmured. "This is too much of a g'nod thing. First ithiiitf you knmv, he'll net llred." A soft booming sound of surf, min gled wHIi the cries of bathers, came from the iK'aeh. There was a vista of Kind and sky and sesi that drew ito a mystic jioiivt far away In the nm'th wivl. In t'he mighty .-tingle, a Kill in a led dress was crawlinf? slow ly like some kiivl of a spider on .Due fabric of naiture. A few flays hiniK lazily above where the liatlrhouses were marslialled In com paot hi inures. L"on the hikc of the ski, mood a sit Ip with its shadowy sails luii'.nited dimly upon the sky, and hih oveitiiead In 'the still, sun-shot air a gxetilt 'hawk swuni; und drifted slowly. Within the morry-K'o-i'ouiid there was a w'hh'lliiK circle of ornamental lions, tfiralTes, camels, ponies, jjoa.ts, gliUer- of : ' jY . ' "You'd Ilcltcr Attend Strictly to Your Jiusincss." inpr with varnish and modal that caught swift reflections from windows 'high mbove them. With HtifT wooden legs, they, swept on in a never-ending race wiiile a gre.nt orchestrion clamored In wild speed. The summer sunlight sprinkled Its gold upon the garnet can opies carried by the tireless racers and upon all the devices of decoration it lint made fcltimson's machine magnificent and famous. A host of laughing chil dren bestrode 'the animals, bending for ward like, charging cavalrymen and shaking ruins and whooping In glee. At Intervals hey leaned out perilously to olutcih a.t Iron rings that were ten dered to them iby a long wooden arm. At the Intense moment before the swift gra.b for the rings one could see Choir little nervous bodies quiver with fuiferness; the kaughter rang shrill and fxctted. Down In the long rows of benches, crowds of people sat watching rtllie- game while occasionally a father mi glut arise and go ne;ur to shout en couragement, cautionary commands, or Applause .at his Hying off-spi'ing. Fre ' fluently mothers called out: "He care ful, Ut-orgie!" The orchestrion beb J.iwed and thundered on lis platform, lllllng the ears with Its long monoton ous song, while over In a corner, a man in a white .apron and IwhVnd a counter roared .aiiovj 'tile itutnult: "Pop corn! Pop corn!" A young man .stood upon a small, IHilsed platform, ereoted in it lift mannvr fif a pulp'.t ami Jut-it without tlie line of Ithe circling llgures. It was his duty ito manipulate the wooden arm and mm the rings. When all were gone (Into the hands of tlw (triumphant chil dren, he held forth a baskot, into Which they rtitttrned -all save the coveted hiws one, which tnennt another ride five and made ithe holder very 'Illus trious.. The young man sbxid all day upon his narrow platform, aftlxlng rings or holding forth the basket. Ho was a sort of general squire In this list of childhood. He was very busy. And yet Sllmson, the astute, had no ticed t'hait tihe young man frequently found .time .to .twlsit about on his plat form and smile alt a gh- w'ho shyly jold (tickets behilnd a!lvered nutting. This, Indeed, was the greait reason of Stlm non'B glowering. The young man upon ithe rtulsed plnitform had no manner of OlK-ense to smile ait the girl behind the rillvered netltlng. It was a most gigan tic -'Insolence. Htimson was amazed mt ft. "iiy jlmlny," 'he said to 'him self again, "thalt fellow Is smiling at my daughter." Kven In (his tone of gresit wrath it could be discerned that Stilmson was filled iwlch wonder ithat any youth should dare smile at the daughter. In the presence of t'he august furhor. OfHen the dark-eyed girl peered be tween the Uhluing wires, and, upon (being dfrteoted by the young man, she usually iturned her head away quickly (to prove ito 'him thait she wan mot In terested. At other 'times, however, her eyei swmed filled with a .tender fear lest lie nhould fall from itlhat exceed ingly i dangerous platform. As for the young man, It was plain ithat these glances filled 'him with via lor, and he . stood carelessly upon his perch, as If ihe deemed It of no consequence that he might fall from .lit. . In all the com plexities of 'his dally life anil duties he found opportunity to jriue ardently at the vision bitilnd the nutting. This . allei.t courtship was conducted over the "ends of the crowd who thronged about the bright machine. The swift, eloquent glanceR of the jvU'iiff mu.n weiut tiodaelessl:; tuid untreeii with 'tholr message. There had finally become established between the two In this manner a subtle iinderntandinn and companionship. They communi cated accurately all that they wished. The boy told his love, his reverence, his hope in the chanKes of the future. The Klrl told him that she loved him, that she did not love him, that he did not know If she loved liim. that she loved him. Sometimes u little slun sayinK "eashier" in gold letters, and haiiKlnir upon 'the silvered meeting, got directly In range and Interfered with a tender message. The love affair had not continued without anger, iinliiiiipiiiess, despair. The girl had once smiled brightly upon a youth who came to buy sntm tickets for his little sister, and the young man upon tlie platform observing this smile had been tilled w ith gloomy rage. He stood like a dark statue of ren te a nee upon his pedestal and thrust out the basket to tlie children with a gesture that was full of scorn for their hollow happiness, for their Insecure and temporary Joy. For five hours he did not once look at the girl when she was h oking at him. He was going to crush her with his Indifference; he was going to demonstrate that he had never been serious. However, when he nar rowly observed her in secret he discov ered that she seemed more blythe than was usual with her. When he found that his apparent Indifference had not crushed her he suffered greatly. She did not love him, he concluded. If she had loved him she would have been crushed. For two days he lived a mis erable existence upon his high perch, lie consoled himself by thinking of how unhappy he was, and by swift, furtive glances at the loved face. At any raite he was in her presence, and he could get a good view from his perch when there was no interference by the little sign: "Cashier." i tn t suddenly, swiftly, these clouds vanished ami under the Imperial blue sky of the restored confidence, they dwelt In peace, a peace that was satis faction, a peace that, like a babe, put Its trust in the treachery of the future. This confidence endured until the next day, when she, for an unknown cause, suddenly refused to look at him. Me chanically, he continued his task, his brain dazed, a tortured victim of doubt, fear, suspicion. AVith his eyes he sup plicated her to telegraph an explana tion. She replied with a stony glance that froze his blood. There was a great difference In their respective rea sons for becoming angry. His were al ways foolish, but apparent, plain as the moon. Hers were subtle, feminine, as Incomprehensible as the stars, as mystic as the shadows at night. They fell and soared, and soared and fell in this manner until they knew that to live without each other would be a wandering In deserts. They had grown so intent upon the uncertaintie.f, the variations, the guessiugs of their al'fair that .the world had become but a huge immaterial background. In time of peace their smiles were soft and prayerful, caresses conlided to the air. In time of war, their youthful hearts, capable of profound agony, were wrung by the intricate emotions of doubt, They were the victims of the dread angel of affectionate speculation that forces the tired brain endlessly on roads that lead nowhere. At night, the problem of whether or not she loved him confronted the young man like a specter, looming as high ns a hill and telling him not to delude himself. I'pon the following day, this battle of the night displayed Itself in the renewed fervor of his glances and 111 their Increased number. 'Whenever he thought he could detect that she too wns suffering, he Ml a thrill of joy. Hut there came a time when the young'nian looked back upon these con tortions with contempt. He believed then that he had Imagined his pain. This came about when the redoubtable Stlmson marched forward to partici pate. "This has got to stop," Stinison had said to himself, as he stood and watched them. They hud grown careless of the light world that clattered about them; they were become so engrossed in their personal drama that the language of their eyes was almost as obvious as ges tines. And Stinison, through his keen ness, his wonderful. Infallible penel ra tion, suddenly came into possession of these obvious facts. "Well, of all the nerves,' "he said, regarding with a new Interest the young man upon the perch. He wns n resolute man. He never hesitated to grapple with a crisis, lie decided to orertiirn everything at once, for, although small, he was very fierce and Impetuous. lie resolved to crush this dreaming. He strode over to the slivered net ting. "Say, you want to ' quit your everlasting grinning uit that Idiot," he said, grimly. nne cast. uown ner eyes and made a little heap of quartern Into a stack She was unable to withstand the terri ble scrutiny of her small and lleroe father. ' Stlmson turned from hlrt daughter and went to a spot, beneath, the plat form. ,He fixed his eyes upon the young man and said: "I've been speakin' to Lizzie. You better attend strictly your own business or there u be a new man here next week." It wns ns If he had blazed nway with a shotgun. The young man reeled upon his perch. At last he In a measure regained his com posure and managed to stammer "A all right, sir." He knew that de nials would be futile wl:.h the terrible Stlmson. He agitatedly began to rat tie the rings In the basket and pretend that ho was obliged to count them or Inspect them In some way. He, too, was unable to face the great Stlmson For a moment, Stlmson stood In grent satisfaction and gloated over the effect of his thrent. "I've fixed them," 'he said complacently, and went out to smoke a cigar and revel In himself. Through his mind went the proud re flection that people who came In con itact with his granite will usually ended In quick and abject submission. (To He Concluded.)

Compensation for Services Is Dcgaurly in Inptin. Frank Carpenter In Chicago Herald. Japan Is a land of low salaries. The ollloinls do not get half as much as ours, and the members of the house nf peers unci of the house of representa tives receive SW Japanese yen and their travellnii: expenses. The yen Is now worth about nil cents, so they receive in reality only $ou n year. Our con gressmen, you know, reck Ive ',,um. The presidents of both houses receive 4,000 yen, and the emperor appoints ollicers of tin., house of peers, and lie selects those of (he house of 1'cpivscnlutivcH from three candidates who are elected by the house. All of the voting In Ihe Japanese par liament Is done in secret ballot. There is a great deal of speech-making, and the representatives grow very excited when they discuss, the measures relat ing to the government. Tint emperor has the right to dissolve purlin nt, and he has dismissed the last (wo houses because they seemed inclined to cut down the expenses beyond the pos sibilities of running the government. The dissolution caused a great deal of xcltement over the country, and the new election was much feared by the administration. The country seemed be torn up by the different factions, but this has been nil done away with by the war with China, and the emperor will get all the money lie wants from now on. NOVI'LTIKS IX jMONKI.YS. A Trihc Hint Is SniJ to Make Wine and Curry It injurs. I'rofessor (timer's recent discoveries In monkey talk have bi;en discounted y a story from China, vouched for by the famous traveler, Ir. Macgownn. The doctor avers that there Is a race if monkeys Inhabiting the mountain re gion of the tircat Wall of China, that have made extraordinary progress in the nrt of making wine. A recent edition of the ofllolrtl history of Yungping states that lately a large body of migrating monkeys passed a certain village in crossing from one mountain to another. The boys of the vilagc clapped their hands and shouted at the spectacle, ami the monkeys, being frightened, fled, taking their young In their arms, but dropping in their Might a number of earthen vessels, some of wiich would hold a quart. On opening these the villagers found that they contained two kinds of wine, a pink and a green, that had been made from mountain berries. It Is alllrmed that the monkeys store this liquor for use in the winter when the water Is all frozen. Dr. Macgowen cites other Independ ent testimonies to similar facts, Includ ing a Chinese account of monkeys in Chegang, who pound fruit in stone mortars to make wine, und he asks, "Is it likely that all these statements are pure Inventions?"
