    THE VACANT HOUSE.
Down over the door of the bluebird'! box
A curtain of lace U drawn;
Ho ned of bolta or of Iron locki
Though the little blue tenants are gone.
For the curtain swings out In the au
i tumn air.
And a thoughtful old spider bas fas
tened It there.
They came with the robin to herald tb
j rprlng.
! And a rlttht royal welcome they had;
Their gay llttlo chirrup would bubble
and ring
t ThoiiKh the weather-vane's temper were
bad;
:And often they'd sit fur a minute or !
n.ore
Up where the spider has curtained the
door.
And then they wire carrying timbers of
Ftraw
i From the stack that was out In the
shed :
Both busily working with hummer and
sa w.
And feathers fur filling their bed.
And now through the branches I see
them no mure.
And th! thoughtful old spider has cur
tained the dour.
I saw a red squirrel out calling to-day.
Itun up on the branches to peck.
Hut the shades were all drawn, and he
hurried away
With n nut hidden hack In his cheek;
And I hope thut the tenants, when win
ter Is o' r.
Will thank the old spider who curtained
the door.

boyhood that was responsible
for his belief In many things the
New Kngland mind cannot enter into;
but no amount of New Kngland edu
cation seemed to knock the eastern
element out of Hob, and this bit of
blood-red coral carved into n wee
fish, with a liny gold ring in its
mouth, was more than u mere
charm to him.
"Iiil-.ird it well," the old lady had
said. ;is she strung it on n ribbon nnd
tied it around his little neck; "don't
let it swim nway; if it swims from
thee, be sure harm is near."
R'hy Hob loved and cherised it;
cried If it was taken off his neck, and
cut two rows of pearly teeth upon it.

Xo, it skipped on to the floor that

the doctor hadn't given up hoje. I
thought of the coral and put my

was there. 1 tell you I felt comfort-

"You jerked it off, somehow, in

"IVrhnps. Anyway, it came off,

"Has it ever fallen since?"
".No those were the only two
deaths in our family, nnd, so far, it

'There were the sketches he
send to the 1'otch Scholarship
committee; and the traveling about
!u mv what the great architects of
the world had done; models to make
and curios to gather; oh, I was sure
Hob was busy enough! He wrote
from I'oinpeii, where he spent a fort
night, then nothing more was heard
from lii in for u month; he had been
buried at the National museum tit
Naples, he explained, reveling in the
beautiful bronzes, paintings anil
architectural fragments dug up from
I'ompeii. Next he was in Home,
where he passed his days in the Fo
rum measuring and drawing some of
the existing remains, or else nt the
Capitoline or Tabularium, where
fragments nre stored before being
sent to the museums. After the mu
seums came his study of the Pan
theon, and then I got n thick letter,
which I welcomed with glee; but it
was all about palaces of the 10th cen
tury; the l'arnese by Michel Angclo
Huoiinrrotti, nnd the l'arnesina, and
puluzzo Massini by Haldassurc Peruz
zi! T'lorenee, Venice, Pisn, Milan, he
seemed to skim through speedily.
"The modern renaissance work in
these cities is of little value," he
wrote, loftily; and next wrote from
Athens, where he was absorbed in
ruins, and wrote me learnedly 011 J Just by the window it luy. A blood
fho beauties he discovered on 'the red blot upon the dark green car
Acropolis the Krectheum, the Par-'pet. A bit of blood red coral, carved
thction and the Propylaeum! Then like fish but no little gold link in
a year had gone by, and he was in .its mouth. I put my hand tip to my
Paris, and wrote that his heart was
set on getting permission to make
measurements of the Itibliothee, Ste.
lienevieve by La Hrouste, the Libraire
of the Keo!e des Heaux Arts, and
the Kcole de Medecin. Certainly
Hob's letters were dull to distrac
1 ion !
Hut there came a day when a let
ter arrived with the postmark Lon
don; ho would be home in a fort-,
night; and the letter never men
tioned a building, or n tapestry, or a
model, or a drawing; plainly, Hob
had seen nothing in London but
iweeds! lie should sail that very
morning, he told me, but that it
seemed foolish to neglect getting
a few more pairs of trousers from
a ripping good tailor off Piccadilly,
who made them for a song.
"And my coral?" he nsked, the
moment he hnd greeted me,
"Safe and sound," said I "but a
most uninteresting beast never
came off the link once."
"But I didn't die;" laughed Bob.
"Of course, if I'd known you were
so anxious to witness its prize
stunt"
"You would bar committed sul

"liujly, isn't it?" (floated Bob "and
rpeaking of partnerships, Doll, why
don't we go into partnership on the
coral? As Mrs. Kobert TarbelL 1
shouldn't mind your wearing It a

The.hot red blood rushed maddening-
l.vlntomycheeks. My heart was throb-
bin? furiously. "Is this is this a uro-
posal?" I gasped,
Itoh leaned over and took my hands
'In his. "Oh, my dear little sweet
heart," he said, eagerly "don't you
k.jov how I love you! Don't you

"lletter than the coral?" I tw-ked
doubtingly.
"A thousand times better than any

It was two weeks before my wed

over to New Yolk for a few last odds
ami ends I needed for my trousseau.
We went for a day, an 1 the day
lengthened into a week, with one de

errands were done, nnd we were

1 had heard from Hob that day.
Tie had a beastly cold, and was bark
ing like a dog, he wrote me, but felt
sure these good .lime days would
put a more til very voice in his throat
by the lime of my return.
Somehow. I 1 Id not sleep that
ni-ht. That is. 1 fell asleep when I
fi r-t retired, but woke at two o'clock,
and could not sh ep any more. My
eyes M'l uii'd propped open with siiel.s.
--I couldn't clie e them to save rue.
I got up itinl ml by the window,
awhile, watching Ihe twinkling lights
of the city; the silvery Diana, alone
on her tower; n policeman strolling
leisurely along his beat.
And I thought of I'.ob; and of all
the dear future when we should be
long wholly to each other, and how
I bp- live for him every minute
of evt. y day. ' "
And 1 took the little coral fish that
hung about my neck and kissed it
because Hob loved it, and whnt Hob
loved was dear.
And then a very strange thing hap
pened. The little fish trembled in
my hand. I cannot expect you to
believe it 1 wouldn't believe it my
self, though quite distinctly I felt
its tiny body shiver in my hand. Yet,
when I looked at it closely, it luy
(jiiite still.
I'.ut if the fish hnd not shivered, I
was shivering now, and hurried back
to bed.
"All nerves!" I told myself. "Gone
to pieces, got pnresis," I quoted
savagely. "The next thing I'll fancy
I see the chairs walking around."
And then the clock struck four.
Hy and by I slept, and woke in the
bright daylight, but somehow I felt

to ask me into her room for break

and after she had gone I still luy

farming operations. 'Trees well

the home and not only increu.-.e its

An Inntrartlre Comparlnon.
It is jonictimcs asserted that cnttl
and sheep require the tame amount of
feed per thousand pounds of live
weight. This statement Keems not
to be well founded. In tome experi
ments nt the Iowa station the cuttle
consumed 10.0 pounds of dry matter
per thousand pound of live weight,
against an average of 29.07 by the
sheep. Both sheep and cattle were on
full feed. The iheep made a daily gain
of 3.73 pounds per thousand pounds of
live weight, nnd the cattle 2.14. In sum
ming tip this comparison we Ami that
while the sheep ate 4S per cent, more
