He kept them mainly for the convenience of Ann the cook. Ann h.id a cunnlnir eye for a pigeon, and some times ventured a trifle of her savings on a match; and though In his mascu line pride he never consulted her. Mas ter Simon always felt more confident on hcarirw that Ann had put money on his bird. Now whn a match took place at sume distant town or flying ground, Ann would naturally be anxious to kern the result as quickly as posstble; and Master Simon, finding that the sus pense affectrd her cookery, had fallen Into the habit of. taking a hamper of carriers to all distant meetings and apeeAinjr thfOT back to Flowing Source with tidings of success.

The offer of a pair or his pet tumblers, worth their weight In gold. had cost him an effort; and when Mis tress P'U'Unce, ordinarily a clear-head ed woman, declired that she preferred c.irrters, she could hardly have aston ished him more by asking for a pair of stock doves. "Cti, eertalnly." he answered, and went home and thought it over. Wo- mn were a puzzle; but he had a dim notion thait If he could lay hand on th ren.son why f.Jlas P-ndenre preferred ordinary carriers to prize tumblers, he would hold the key to some of the se rr'ris of the) sex. He thought It over for three dnys. during which h smoked mire tobacco than was good for him. At nbofit four o'clock In the afternoon of the third day a smile enlarged his f.xce. He set down his pipe, smacked h'a thigh, stood up, sat down again, snd began o laugh. Ha laughed slow ly and deliberately not loudly for thP greater part of that evening, and woke up twice in the night and shook t'he bedclothes Into long waves with his mirth. Next morning he took two carriers frum the cote, shut them In a hamper, and rowed down to Ponteglos with his gift. Hut Mrs. Waddllove was not at home.

Then he rowed home, and spent tho next two days after his wont; the only observable difference being the position of his garden chair. It stood as a rule under the shadow of the broad eaves, but now Master Simon ordered the tnp boyito carry It out and set It by a rustic table close to the river's brink, whence, as he smoked, he could keep comfortable watch upon the pigeon cote. "You'll caitch a sunstroke," said Ann the cook. "I hope you're not beginning to forg?t how to take care of yourself." "Well, I hope so, too," (Master Simon answered; 'but did pot budge. On fhe morning of the third day, how ever, he sa w that which made him step Indoors and mount to the o4tlo under tho cote. Having opened with much caution a trap-door In the roof, he slipped an arm out and captured a carrier pigeon. The bird carried a note folded small and bound under Its Wing with a thread of silk.' Master Rimon, opened the note and read: "If you loves me as I loves you. No knife can cut our loves In two." He had prepared himself for a hearty chuckle;, but he broke out with a profuse perspiration 4ntend. ,"Oh, this is hustl ing a man!" he ingeminated, staring round the empty attlo like a rabbit seeking a convenient hole. 'Not three weeks burled I" he added, with another groan, and began to loosen his neck cloth. While thus engaged he heard a flutter above the trap door, and a second pigeon alighted, with a second note, also bound wl'ih a allken thread. "Lc,-am,ercyr' gasped Master Simon But the second note was written In a different hand,. and ran as follows: "I could die of shame.
