"And how ko the curates '" cried Fir
James, ns soon as he saw ree. for he
was mostly a Jovial man. and had now ',
a class of FtroniT waters before him. 1
"How t::o curates In Dumfries?
"And Well SaiJ for a Brave Lassl"
Have they all SeetT rabbled since th?
King's Popish proclamation., or hive
they yet learned to read without their
finser at the line?"
"There Is one of tiem out of plac.
and that in the ffood parish of Morton,"
eaid I, which It Is my hope to obtain by
the good will of DrumUnri?."
"Ye are some kin to him, I have
heard say!" said Sir James, pawkily.
"No kin whatsoever," I mado answer,
- will some heat, "save that my mother
was sometime maid to the old Laay
Drumlanrls:."
"And left of her own accord to bo
married to (T.b'oy F-.ii. the Muir'nlrk
carrier well do I mind of It," sail Sir
James.
So we had bite of br. id and stoup of
ale touether. and were rr. rry In sober
and sedate fashion, speafctns: chiefly of
the evil state of the country, of the
exactions of the Kite's nv n which
waxed worses and worse, and the
frenzy of the fanatical party that
threatened to turn the world upside
down If they had their will.
Presently the lass of the change
house, a comely one and plump, to
whom, for my shamir.?, Sir James
slandered me. telling her that I was a
merry curate and gamesome, opened
the door, and came ben to u where we
eat table.
"Gentlemen," she said, speaking very
well and clearly for a country
"bear with me If I say that it behooves
you to set out ere it be duk, for there
are 111 folk about, and you might come
to an Injury."
"Which," said Sir James, "you wish
Dot to so sportive a lad as this my
friend here, and or.e that hath a beard
to his face wherein there Is yet not a
hair of gray."
"Indeed," said she, turning on him
with spirit, "I see nought the matter
with the young man's beard, nor yet
seems he so merry a? those whose
beards are grayer, and therefore might
have more cense."
"And well said for a brave lass!"
cried Sir Jamw. "The maid had mo
on the hip that time and has thrown
me fairly. Here is a silver shilling for
you, Marget. What hast thou to say
to that?"
The plump, well-shapen maid-servant
took the sliver piece between her teeth
and bit upon it sedately.
"I say that your silver Is better thin
your wit (which God mend!), Sir
James," she said, and looked at me as
she said It, in a way that was not he
coming to reply to. So that Instead, I
looked with modesty upon the ground.
Then with that and no more wo
mounted and rode away, both of us be
' lng well horsed. Sir James riding upon
a hackney of gray, and I on a roan,
which Drumlanrlg had given mo from
a Whig's farmhouse ore of the
"Welshes of Scaur as I learned after
ward, when they came upon me to
make me restore it.
It was by a solitary pasB that broke a
"way through the hills, where the wa
ters run up Into the heart of the blind
"Hopes," that Fir James and I were
riding flowly. talking peaceably, and
taking solid pleasure In our conversa
tion. For Sir James had ever a loan
ing to the things of the Kirk, and, If
his star had risen In the right season,
he had made none so ill a minister. So
we discoursed of foreknowledge, of the
right of the civil magistrate, and of thn
TJrlm and .Thummlm, which aro all
vexed and difficult questions; so that
It was great pleasure to me to dispute
with one so learned and discreet as Sir
James, though he was, to my thinking,
ever a little over-Whlgglsh In hli be
llefs.nd, as I knew, had no great opin
ion of those ministers who had taken
the Test.
We went thus daintily and cosily
along, pacing upon our ambling pal
freys, when all of a sudden "Crack!"
There went oft a shot behind us, and
Blr James.' hoVse set its head downand
spread Its heels In the air. - . . ' ...
I looked over my .shoulder and SiW a
.tall young man, riding upon a heavy
cart-horse as It had boan fresh from a
plow tail, and .with a pair of pistols
ready bended In his hand, pursuing nf
ter us with a dark and fearsome coun
tenance. At this I had very great fear,

F :-e ten.!.-r ws it-y heart that I
d I - :.),k e,-.:; !ert I ihould see the
p: I mac. my con.;i:-.ien, dead upon

y. 'ir.T rcan return, cuirlng and swcir-i:-
:. "The .il c:,-iv - him! Curse on tile
fa'?? lit", the detTdtful bi.lkts, the evil

V.'her: r. t I jL-dsed that his cruel Intent
cca'l not have sped well. So by mis
adventure I raise 1 ry In id and looked
r.bettt m". And !'! there standing upon
the heather within a doxen yards of me
was th rhi'er with his reeking pistol
ye: in h!. h t:;d.
Ko! h-.! What have we 'here?" cried
he, ceming up to me with his pistol
upon hi? arm.
"A poor son of the church," I told him,
"that had not lh worth of a groat about
him. and naucht c,: value ?ave hla poor
prayers, which if he wro spared would
b put i-p fur th man that prolonged
his !'?."
"Poor 'prayer. In-Wry piid the
verm? man of the dark an-1 fierce coun
tenance, "craven p'ay ers are ever poor
prayers. Rise up, man, and take your
srheltle. I sought the lion's life, not that
of the ass which brays at his tail."
So saying, he mounted agaiin on h'.s
gr--a: Flanders mar".
"(let up, Zutphen," said he, "had It
not been for these great loundering
pile-driving feet of yours. T had been
howking a hole for both the Hon and
the ass. Well for you, craven dog, that
the gray carried your master well, or I
had been obliged to put you in the ditch
with him, to ke. p your tongue from tell
ing tales which is all that it is good
for."
So the ribald young man rode away,
and I gat me up and went to catch my
rr.an a work of time nnd much difli
cuity. Ami as I pursued my beast over
the moss hags, I saw the young man
rising and falling upon his sodden and
pr.e.;!wa hor.'?. And I blessed the beast,
b'rame his manif'st defects had saved
two hor. T-t men's lives that day.
N'"verthee-i ., I nmn not up with Sir
James all ths way to my own house In
Er'ir.bur'.'h, so well had his good gray
carried him.
The m..rning of the next day I re-p.-ir-d
to the lodging of Sir James
Standsfi' Id. w hich was in a close at the
head of the W, Jt How, where there are
many (i'lly p'.iple dwelling. Though
"(ict I'p, Zutplicn," Snid He."
some of them, alasl for the sake of the
times and the favor of thf magistrates,
mike n pretense of ungodliness saying
"Devil t.ike" and "Zounds!" loudly In the
street when a notable person passes by.
For to use 'oaths Is counted thf; mark of
a well-nlTer;tf1 p. rson by tne govern
ment of thfs time.
When I nter.d 1 found the worthy
knight with his head fallen upon his
hand, and a little red book before- him
of a square shape and well bound In
leather, iris tears were falling upon
th rag's, as 1 Judged, to the hurt of
the prlntln;?. T was for drawing back,
f'.r I thought that I had found my
frbnd at his devotions. Hut his tears
Inclined me to stay that I might com
fort him with the apples of pertinent
advl'p.
"A good morning!" I bade him, speak
ing softly and putting my hand on his
shoulder.
But he nevr give m? a, word of an
swer, but to sigh and groan and read
upon his book.
"IJt! of good hrart, Sir James," I
said to him, "for I nn going to the
town's authority and p-lvy council, with
whom I (m In good order; and, with
their help, we shall poon have yon
knave by thi hols. T rn.w him so close
nnd lnld such discourse with him that
I .can (leat rlptl'-n to a hair."
But Sir James wis no ways encou--agtd.
"Fw," tl!d he, "It Is all worse
than nwlr.-s; my ahamp nits heavy on
me. I am not a man to mi't3 complnlnt,
but yrsfcrday I wns hurt to death In
my tendrrest part.".
"Why," f aid I, "the knave1 surely whot
not true. You are not wounded. You
rode away briskly, enough." , . . ;
'. "Yea," said 61r Jnms,; "wounded am
t to the heart ; for he that shot at me
wlih Intent to take my life was my eld
est son Philip." ' ';
At he iting of v.'hlrti, th life ns It
were went from me, and I had e'en to
sit down on a settle to keep from fall
ing. For then, Indeed, I knew that my
friend, who seemed so mirthful and full
of good cheer, had all the time a canker
worm gnawing at his heart.
At kist he lifted his head and I saw
fhat the book he read in was Iturton's
"Mlancholy," the little square book of
the earliest. Imprint, which so. many
count next to their Mbles. .
Yet I Judged It to bo mightily unsult
nblo reading for one ho ullllcted as lie;
therefore, as the right of mine ofilce
was, I directed him to lay It ashb nnd
turn to suitable passages of Scripture.
AncJ In especial 1 counseled him to med
itate upon the mystical meaning Of
certain verses In thft Canticles and In
lOstckU.I, upon which I had preached
with great comfort to myself for one
year In my luf.t pastoral chartto. I
was proceeding to expound some, of
these to him when lie broke out upon
me In u way tliatj was certainly not
well becoming of a man of UU yenm and
profession.
"Tut. tut," he said, "ye are over much
given, Mr. r.ell, to speak upon matters
ye have small understanding of. 1 fi'id
more egg-meat In a page of Honest
l'.urton than In all the songs of King
Solomon who to my mind might have
employed himself better."
"You epealt ns a carnal man, nnd
not as an elder, Sir Janus," 1 said to
him, for I was ever llrm with lilm;
"know you not that these things uro to
lie Interpreted after the spirit?"
"lilile ye .Master Hell, til ye ken some
thing about it," said he; "till ye uro a
man with a family and no comfort In
tlicni your home a perpetual brawl,
your sons either doga that bite or ems
that snap your wife perpetually peev
ish of countenance, add of tongue
w ill you tin n bide It nil meekly an a
Ft ranger tyke that claps its tall be
tween legs and scurries down the pub
lic way when other mcssans yelii? 1
ken you ministers, rp daily the young
er sort of you. that have lolled "Pests
:unl Indulgences' like sweet morsels,
under your tongues; ye would take it
upon you to prescribe for death wounds
from your experience of the arching
of your own little lingers."
Now. during my life, which after all
ha been but forty years, 1 have found
great benelit In knowing when to for
ben.' speech, and when to Joke aside and
let the angry Jaw go by. This I did
at this present, knowing that like the
scent of rose-water nnd balirl after a
shower in June, so the pleasant coun
tenance of my friend would again be
turned upon me.
And so it proved, for in a llttlo he
turned his eyes upon me, having shut
his book.
"I pray you pardon me, good friend,"
he said; "my black cinder hath Infested
my heart, and my Ill-temper's break out
most readily on them that I love the
most."
With that he put forth his hand to
me, and, being of. an easy heart, I took
It In mine, and was affected to tears.
So our friendship was made up of new,
and that never to be broken up any
more. Ho was silent a long season, but
at the last he found his speech.
".Mr. Hell," said he, "I will bo plain
with you, for plainness is best among
friends. I have too long let my heart
know Its own bitterncs. I will no
longer make a stranger of you. It is
not my debts, as many think, that trou
ble me: for since these Englishmen,
cloth-weavers and merchants, Umpli
ray Suurway and his folk, have come
out of Yorkshire, they have put me In
a good and easy way of life. It is that
I have no comfort In my family. iMy
wife loves me not, but cries out upon
me continually that I am hard to the
children. Jly eldest you have seen pur
sue me to the death; and now my
younger, to whom I had conveyed my
estate, having di?herished my son
Philip. Is become even as the other.
And this is the more bitter to me, be
cause that my heart and my hope were
ret upon him. Now his brother, who is
the most debauched man In four coun
ties, has so Infected John ithat of late
he has oftlmes come home In drink
even as the other. Tell mo,-vas ever
man so driven by his own?"
Then I counseled him to try If there
was not yet some hope of winning his
heart.
"I will come with you," I said to en
courage him, "and it may be tha.t his
heart may bo moved by my advice, es
pecially after the miscarriage of his
evil enterprise upon the Lead Hills."
Dut Sir James shook his head.
"The lad Is too bitterly Joined to his
Idols. Once he took ,'ervlce In the Scots
reglmer.it abroad, and I thought that
would settle him; but he was confined
In prison, and 'I got him delivered by
my Influence with our ambassador at
the Hague. Then he was condemned
to death at Treves, and I provided
money wherewith he bribed his Jailers
nnd so made his escape. I have re
ceived hfcn-lnto mine own house since
his return. , And after all my care and
tenderness l,t Is come to that pass of it,
that when I go to my own fireside, I
know not whether I shall get my sup
per or a musket shot in my wame!"
"Providence may yet soften his
hei.rt," I raid, though Indeed I saw no
great prosper.
"Ay." 'replied Sir James, "It may. I
thought that a good wife might do
that even better; but since I got Philip,
my son, married to a decent lass, I
have JiiKt another mouth to feed, nnd It
make no difference to his debauch
eries." "Nevertheless," said I, "t will come
to New Mllns with you. Who knows
but thnt we rriy bo able to do some
'thlng?" "Well wnld, minister," said Sir James;
"ye were not greatly bauld on the mulr,
buit, let me tell you, ye were a deal
safer with a good sheltle under your
hip and the- heather afore ye than
sleeping In your naked bed within my
house of the New Mllns."
"I have no fesar In the path of duty,"

MAID CLAIMED OWNERSHIP
A Olrl from Michigan Saves n .West
- J'olntor from IMsgrnco.
The following romance of West Point
Is given by a .correspondent of the
Pittsburg Plspaitch: There were hun
dreds of pretty girls from all parts of
'the country at West Point participat
ing In the recent graduating festivities
at the military academy. They dnnced,
thoy strolled along Flirtation walk,
they sit on the historic old chapel
steps nnd smiled so graciously that
every cadet heart was upset. Hut the
queen of them all was a black-eyed
young woman from Michigan whoso
health will be drunk at every army post
where the young oflleers of 18!)5 are sta
tioned, and the story of whose ready
wit and audacity will bo a West Point
Iegt-nd for yearB to come.
Four marks against a cadet render
him liable to dismissal, or as cadets
call It, found. Despite the strict rules
against smoking some of the young
sters run the chances of slyly puffing
cigarettes, and .having no pockets,
carry them lnolde the bands of their
caps. i.i
',v Met with nn'Accldcnt. '
The last; day of the 4-year course
found one -cadet with three marks
ngnlnnt his record. Ills commission In
the army wns almost In sight, and he
was hastening to the last duty he would
have to perform under tho rigid dis
cipline of the academy. On the walk
In front of Olllcers Itow he met 4ho
charming young woman from Michigan
with the strictest of the tactical of
ficers stationed at . the point. After
saluting as required the cadet .'rained
his cap to the pretty girl and a cigar
ette fell to the ground at the tactical
man's feet.
For a moment the endet wns almost
paralyzed. A vision of the four black
marks and a sense of tho danger of be
ing dismissed nt tho last hour came
upon him. The otllcer did not see the
cigarette from the cap, but his eye
lighted upon It nt his feet. The cadet
stopped and stood nt attention while
the otllcer looked nt him for a moment
nnd then sternly said: "I shall be
obliged to report you for smoking, sir."
The young woman saw the situation
and before another word could be said
stepped between the two men.
Saved hy tho (.Miluk-Wlttcd (ilrl.
"This Is not his clga.rette!" she ex
claimed to the tactical officer, looking
hlni unflinchingly In the race. There
as a moment of strained silence.
"Captain, you shall not report (hat
cadet for smoking," she went on hur
riedly, a flush mounting to her cheeks.
"The cigarette Is not his, but mine. 1
dropped It. 1 know It Ih shameful for
me to confess that I do wuch a thing ns
to smoke, but lots or us girls do It," und
flic forced u little laugh. "You will not
tell on me, will you?"
She went on with an appealing glance
that pcii'dratcd the stern military
breast. "I would not have It known."
The captain vowed pronilsn. His
honor ns n gentleman compelled him to
accept the young woman's word, but
his eye was fixed upon the cadet.
"Come on, captain, or we will be
late," said the girl, In triumph, nnd ns
she passed she gave the cadet a xmlle
that stole his heart away. That night
the old stone buildings resounded with
joy, and the next day, when hi:-, diploma
was handed to the cadet, she applauded
him more than anyone else.
Perhaps this story will have a sequel.
Who can tell? Stranger things have
happened.
HOW TO AVOID SUNSTROKE.
And What to Io When Attacked by That
linngcrous .Malady.
From the Philadelphia Iteeord.
iSunstroke weather has followed
sharply upon pneumonia weather this
season. Here are the rules issued by
the board of health for preventing and
treating sunstroke: Sunstroke is a con
dition caused by exposure to excessive
heat. Two forms are recognized heat
exhaustion and heat stroke.
Heat exhaustion Prolonged exposure
to high temperature, particularly when
combined with physical exertion, Is lia
ble to be followed by great prostration,
collapse, restlessness, nnd, In severe
cases, by delirium. I'nllke heat stroke,
the surface of the body Is usually cool,
the pulse small and rapid, nnd the tem
perature below normal as low as t)5 or
PG degrees. It Is not necessary that the
person shall have been exposed to the
direct rays of the sun, as the condition
may come on when working In close,
confined rooms during midsummer, nnd
when exposed to great artificial heat,
as In laundries, foundries, bake shops,
and engine rooms.
Sunstroke or heat stroke This Is
chiefly confined to persons working
very hard while exposed to the sun. It
Is common In our large cities, but Is not
unknown in the country. Those habitu
ated to the use of beer and whisky nnd
the debilitated are especially predis
posed to attacks.
Tho attack may be sudden and tho
patient be stricken down and die with
in an hour with symptoms of heart fail
ure, difficult breathing and loss of con
sciousness. The usual form comes on
during exposure, with pain in the head,
dizziness, a feeling of weakness and
sometimes nausea and vomiting. The
loss of consciousness may be only tran
sient or It may be complete. The face
is flushed, the skin pungent, the pulse
rapid and" full and the temperature very
high, from 97 degrees to 110 degrees.
The breathing is labored nnd deep,
sometimes loud. It Is Important to note
that in heat exhaustion the skin is
moist, pale and cool; the pulse small
nnd soft, and the senses entire; while
In heat stroke there Is usually Insensi
bility and great heat of skin.
. Wear l.lRlit Clothing.
Dark, close-fllttlng nnd heavy cloth
Ing and such s compress the chest
and neck should net be worn during
the heated term. For those who are
obliged to labor In the sun, light cloth
ing -and a straw or light felt Hint, per
mitting free circulation of the air, are
preferable.
On very hot dnys one should drink
frequently of cool water in moderate
quantity. It Is Injurious to drink a
large quantity of Ice water, cold beer,
soda water or other mineral waters or
Iced drinks. Cool water In which oat
meal has been stirred Is a. safe nnd re
freshing drink. Immediate death Is
sometimes caused by "lee cold" drinks.
The Immoderate use of nlitohollc bev
erage Is also dangerous.
Tho sleeping room should be freely
ventilated. Constipation of Mm bowels
should be avoided. When overheated
work slowly, frequently cooling the
head, chest, back nnd wrists with cool
water. Keep a wet sponge ir cloth In
tho hnt. When, on a very hot day the
skin becomes hot nnd dry. an I a sting
ing, burning scnsntlon Is felt In the
head, and tiha face Is flushed and the
eyes bloodshot, nnd there Is tendency
to urinate frequently, the person should
immediately quit work, seek quirt and
a cool place, nnd If not speedily re
lieved from the oppressive sensation of
heat, tako a cold bath, submerglug or
wetting the head.
Itemove the patient to a cool nnd
shady place, where there In plenty of
fresh, pure air. Strip the clolthlng to
tho waist, and place the sufferer In
a recumbent position. Pour cold water
(Ice water) upon the head nd chest
Chronic
Alcoholism
and the morphine habit, on account
of the manner in which the tissues
of the body are depleted, owing to
the lack of nourishment, can be
cured by the use of i
Bovinine
as has been positively proved. 13y
its use the organs of the body re
sume a state of health, and the
desire for morphine or alcohol sub
sides as the function of nutrition
becomes normal.
and wrists until consciousness returns.
Apply Ice to the head and rub tho body
with It, but If the skin Is cold no Ice
should be applied. When practicable
the patient should be put In a bath
at 70 degrees to reduce the temperature.
In heat exhaustion ptimulants should
be given freely, and If the temperature
is below normal, as whown by tho skin
being cold jind clammy, tho hot bath
should bo used. Ammonia and wnter
mny be given, if necessary. The sub
ject of sunstroke is liable to a second
atlnck, and should do no mental work
for months, nnd keep from all excitement.

mirably DefciidoJ hy n Witness.
In North Carolina lately a case was
tried In which tho defendant's char
acter having been Impeached It was
sought to bolster It up by showing ho
had reformed nnd joined the church.
The witness, who belonged lo the same
church, Insisted that as the defendant
was now a Christian man, of course his
character was better. Counsel asked
him: "Doesn't he drink Just as much
as he ever did?"
The witness, who was colored, nnd
evidently embarrassed by the Inquiry,
slowly raised his eyes and said with
much deliberation: "I think he do, but
ho carries it more better."
