"I wish," cried Mi hi ml, "that you
•woukl go away anil never come near
<no again."
"1 will come around in tin* morning,"
said Ivondrick Fallows soothingly
"You are all upset The passing of the
customs after that rough passage is
enough to try the strongest nerves.
You will feel better in the morning."
"1 shall not bo at home to you in the
morning or any other time you call,"
she announced spitefully "1 want you
to k«H-p awaj from mo."
"What is the matter, dear?" he aaked
anxiously. "Have I offended':"
"Offended!" she repeated sl.rilh "As
though your very attitude were not an
offense!"
"Why," he defended, "I thought I ,
carried It oft' very well. 1 battled no
bly against a desire to take you in my
arms before all those jieople and"
"If you had," she broke In savagely
"I should have killed you Was it not

enough Insult that you should press my i
hand and tell me how happy I hail
made you?"
"Insult?" he echoed. "Wherein lay
the insult?"
"That you should suppose that I
would have come back just for your
sake."
"Of course," he said deprecatingly,
"I knew that your father cabled you,
but I supposed that you wire triad ol
an excuse."
Mlldriil stamped her foot in vexa
tion. "There you go again," she fumed.
"Why should you suppose that I would
be glad of an excuse?"
"Why," vaguely, "to get back, to
sin* everybody and me."
"1 suppose you thought that 1 paid
attention to what you said when I
went away."
"What was that?" he asked interest
edly.
"You wanted to bet i would not bt»
gone six months."
"I remember," he said, with sudden
enlightenment. "The stakes were ten
pounds of candy against" He blun
dered a little.
"My penalty was an engagement to
you." she finished.
"I had almost forgotten." he con
fessed. "You grew so angry when I
suggested It that I put it out of my
mind."
"And yet," she insisted, "you appear
disposed to claim the forfeit."
"Mildred." he said tenderly, "I
thought 1 had won your heart through
something more than a bet "
"Well." she Bobbed, "you made me
feel so humiliated at the dock "
"Why?" he urged
"Supposing that I had come back to
hoc you and that 1 was so anxious to
become engaged that I was willing to
dispense with the formality of a pro
posal ?"
"I'll propose again now, if that will
help any," he suggested.
"It's too late," she said between her
sobs.
"Then you did care for me?" he said,
with an unfortunate ring of triumph In
his voice.
"No!" She sat up very suddenly,
dry eyed and angry "I did once thin*
I liked you, but when you were so hor
rid this morning I realized my error "
"How was I horrid this morning?" he
asked patiently.
"Supposing that we were engaged
Just because I came back sooner than
I WHlltlll to."
"Hut 1 did not suppose that," ho
denied "I knew that your father had
cabled for you."
"Then why did yon take it all for j
granted?" she demanded, hurt pride in
her voice. "Don't you suppose that n !
woman wants to be asked before she
becomes engaged ? Don't you know that ]
I'd have died sooner than come back
had I known you would put that con
structlon on my actions?"
"But I didn't." he repeated "I knew |
you had to come home because they |
'were afraid poor old Bob was worse." j
"Then why should you suppose we !
are engaged If you are not trying to j
collect that horrid bet?" she sobbed.
"Because you cabled me you would
marry me," he explained.
Mildred rose to her feet, her eyes
flashing. "It seems to me." she said
angrlt.v, "you could find a better excuse
than a wicked falsehood like that."
"But you did," he persisted. "I wrote
and told you that I simply could not
get along without you and asked if I
could come over and make your tour
our bridal trip. You cabled back 'Yes,'
iind then before 1 could get a steamer
your father told me that you were
coming home."
"1 never got such a letter," she de
clared, "and I never would end such
a cable."
"Well, I wrote the letter and got the
cable."
"1 only cabled papa when he scut for
me."
"That the only cablegram?"
"I sent two. The first w is when I re
ceivisl his message and said I would
come and the second was to tell him
the boat I sailed on."
"Did yon send both?" he asked, a
smile beginning to lighten his drawn
face.
"I wrote the first. The second the
steamer agent sent for me."
"Would you mind," he asked, "writ
ing the address again?"
Defiantly she moved to the desk and
presently handed him n slii» of nnoer
with a'few words i:i fashionable nnd 1
uncertain characters. Fallows gave a I
shout.
"1 suppose," he explained, "if you ad |
dress a cable t<> 'Fellows, Sl!* Broad
way,' and the *e' looks like an 'a' and it |
is delivered to Fallows at the same ad- j
dress that 1 am cleared of charges of
presumption Your father only receiv
ed the second message. 1 was given
the ilrst. 1 supposed you had received
my letter and that was the answer l>o
you see how it was?"
Fallows had to lean very close t > the
bowed head to catch the whispered
"Yes."
"Which Yes' Is that," he asked ten
derly—"that you understand or that,
you will answer my letter in the affirm j
atlve?"
lie had to bend closer yet to catch i

It Is to the Romans, who left so j
many marks of their presence In Fug
land, that Rritons owe the first light
house. This was, and is still, the I'ha
ros watch tower to the south of the
keep of Dover castle. This is remark

of Roman work In the castle and as
the earliest piece of regular masonry
now existing in Great Rritain. It con

When you come to think of it, most
of us do have a hard time keeping our
selves in order, temper, nerves, selfish
ness and longings, ambitions and de
sires all insisting to have a hearing,
and down steps wisdom and orders con
trol. Of course there are the cool head
ed, intellectual people to whom self
sacrifice means nothing, and little they
know of the tight of the other passion

the fruits of the battle. Keep serene,
say. "I shall control myself and be a
cheerful philosopher," and all will go
well.
The IllncU Gnnt Super*»ltlon.
There is a species of black gnat about
the size of a young house fly that visits
you at the dinner table frequently in
the course of a lifetime. He is believed
to be the soul of a departed friend
come back to warning of the death
of some one you know. Simple folk
believe in him absolutely Whenever
he appears at a certain home in New
York, buzzing about the plate of the
lord and master, the good wife declares,
'•John, who can it be next?" She runs
over on her lingers the names of such
friends as she can then n»call. John
frowns, growls about "female non
sense," strikes at the gnat, and next
morning finds in the death notices an- ;
nouncemcnt of the demise of one he ■
knew.—New York Press.
In the Vntur'ul Wny.
During a session of the supremft t
court of Maine at Augusta a tedious
and complicated real estate case had
pretty nearly worn out the patience of
the counsel on both sides One ot the
lawyers engaged was Fred A. Apple
ton. whose fame as a wit was wide
spread.
Opposing him was a lawyer of pom- i
pons mien and much avoirdupois, who
kept making blunder after blunder tin
til even the Judge became irritated.
After making a particularly aggravat- ,
ing error he said:
"I beg your honor's pardon; that was
another mistake. I seem to be inocu
lated with dullness today."
"Inoculated, brother?" said Mr Ap
pleton. "I thought you had it in the
natural way."
The Act of Sn^rxfnK,
The practice of saying "God b!e*» I
jou!" whenever a person sneezes must !
be widespread indeed when we find a
similar salutation "Mbuka!" (literally, '
"equals live") obtaining among the Fi- J
jians of the south Pacific, a race de- j
veloped by the blending of the Malayo j
Polynesians with the Papuans, the
Fiji group being the border land be- ;
tween the two. It has been said by a j
London physician that one is nearer ]
death at the actual moment of sneezing j
than at any other period of one's life, j
Herein perhaps lies the reason for the ,
kindly wish and may account for the j
prevalent idea that it is dangerous to |

The following account is given in
Country Life <>f the way in which pil
fering crows are dealt with by Italian
agriculturists: A hole of a certain depth
Is dug In the ground, at the bottom of
which is placed some decayed meat.
A funnel shaped wedge of paper is
then inserted into the hole, the upper
edge of the paper being coated with
birdlime. "Maitre Corbeau" sees the
food, descends to grasp it, and when
he has firm hold of It he rises up again.
Ilis head is, however, swathed with
the paper cap, and In his mad endeavor
to rid himself of it he circles up to ex
traordinary heights in the air, revolv

The two expressions "by and by" and
"by the bye" are really derived from
the same original word, and the words
"by" and "bye" have the same general
sense. Rut the spelling "bye" lias long
been used in the second of these
phrases without any real reason for
the change. We should not speak of
a bye law or a bye path, and yet many
are careful to write "by the bye" and
"by the by." In "goodbye" there might
be some reason for keeping the final
"e," since It stands for the word "ye"
In the shortened form ot "God be with
ye:" but where so much has been
dropped the "e" Is hardly worth keep
ing, especially as the old meaning is

ImperturbabJy into tl»<• night for sev ;
t
Uo had tin 1 air of one loath to break
u silence, one who bad a constitutional
aversion to tin- futilities of speech.
But -die was accustomed to tbat, even
whimsically attached to bis deliberate
ways. At last lie spoke. In the dark
ne.ss she could see his face only as a
pule blur, but there was a suspicious
sweetness in his tone.
"Ail the little rippling, purlins
brooks," he said slowly, "and all the
ordinary rivers, even the great ma
jestic streams, 'wind somewhere to the
sea.' And I'm sure it Isn't my fault."
be added in an injured voice.
"Some rivers plunge underground
and lose themselves," she argued
stubbornly.
"I said 'ordinary rivers,' " This with
laconic patience from the gloom.
A quick, flashing smile touched her
lips and vanished as if frightened to
ilnd itself out in the dark. Flie won
dered well, a number of things; as,
for instance, what lie was thinking of
at that very instant, whether lie had
ever really been in love and. if so,
what she was like, how deeply love
would stir him, whether-
She made a little impatient move
ment to brush away the thoughts
which buzzed through her mind like
gnats, but still they hovered about,
scattered, but not dispersed. He was
one of the men a woman simply bad
to think about - broad of shoulder and
cxasperatingly masculine, a sort of
unexplored country of mannishness
that forever challenged. She drew a
Sharp, piqued sigh. However much
the feminine mind paid tribute, he ap
parently preserved a Jove-like calm.
Ruthlessly she prodded him again.
"But why hasn't a girl Just as good a
right to contemplate the Joys of bach
elorhood as a man?" she demanded.
"A man marries if he wants to, when
"WOULD YOU I'KorOSE To A MAS IF—EK—

be wants and, above all. because he
■wants to, while a girl well, she gets
the idea that matrimony is a refuge
from the wrath to come. If she doesn't
marry, she knows that her best friends
will refer to her behind her back as an
"old maid' and think of her as one of
life's failures. It isn't fair: Why
hasn't she Just as much of a right to
her singleness as a man?"
The dark mass in the opposite cbair
seemed to be considering the question.
There was a movement, and the i»olnt
of light tbat marked his cigar shifted.
"She has," he said, with calm convic
tion, "only one expects her to have too
tyuch taste to, exercise the right."
There was a pause, ana ttie'n Tie elabo
rated: "Being a woman, you see, dear
girl, is just a trifle like being caught iu
a net. It is by no means the same
thing as being a man, and all the eman
cipation in the world can't really free
her. She is an entirely different be
lug, ami I'm rather glad she is!"
The girl was holding her breath, she
scarcely knew why. Sprites, hand in
hand, seemed to be dancing along her
nerves and singing in tiny threadlike
voices that only she could hear "And
I'm glad too! And I'm glad tool" It
took her several moments to study the
sudden Joy; then she pursued the ar
gument calmly:
"But. no; surely you're not in earnest.
Surely you're not of the antiquated
school that believes, for Instance, that
a woman's brain is of a different and,
of course, Inferior caliber to man's."
There was a line disdain in her tone
notwithstanding the fact that her heart
was beating impatiently.
The man chuckled softly, for, truth
to tell, he was that very sort of crea
ture. Never had lie been able to take
the organ under discussion seriously,
lie admitted It now without reserve,
with a tine, large, Indulgent masculine
assurance
"It's a wonderful little contrivance,
the feminine brain," he concluded, "but
certainly it is different."
Again in the darkness the mouselike
smile flashed out and back again, ac
companied this time by an audible
sound that started as a snicker, but
was deftly turned into a sniff of scorn, i
Tt was tiie latter that the man re» 1
ogfiized and greeted witii an amuseu
laugh.
"Ever hear about the little buttercup
that j iu.-l to lie a daisy, or the rose
that ; vore it was a potato, and If it
wasn't it would be there now?" in
quired th" man. with bland curiosity.
Again il point of 1 glit shifted. He
had replaced the ejgar in his mouth
ft ml i- tiled a little more luxuriously In
liis HI T as if in mere sybaritic enjoy
ment of nis extraordinary luck In hav
ing been born as he was
"Your illusti it lons are beside the
facts," site cell 1 ted at last, with dlgiii
ty. "I was aot asserting that girls wish
fo be men!"
"Well, then' his tone implied an
amiable d< ire to please "ever hear of
the little buttercup that Insisted that it
was a il*.sy in .spite of appearances and
the testimony of its yellow petals?
Well, that's like the foolish little girls
who want to be Judged by man's stand
ard."
Two slender hands were clapped
noiselessly, but their owner enunciated
with some heat: "How would you like
to be a wi nan yourself and be put up
on and :ad snubbed and forever
taunted w h ■ fact of your inferior!
ty? Oh, ) •< ,u so many words," she
went on liiiiiieuly, lest he should inter
rupt her speech. "Not that, of course,
hut by being told tbat you couldn't un
derstand, being patronized, having al
lowances made 'Oil, well, she's only n
woman!' Just tell me, honor bright,
how would you like it?"
Tin* man chuckled. The vision of
himself in the predicament suggested
was not without its humorous side. The
figure of speech he had used a few min
utes earlier came back to him with a
new force. it was like being caught
under a net. though the meshes were
I silken.
"Well?" she demanded, with a ring
; oi triumph In her voice.
"1 don't suppose I should like it,"he
' admitted i» twoen putt's. "Hut that
duesn t prove anything, you know,"he
went on hastily. "That's because I'm
a man." Then, as an afterthought,
"When you're once used to being a wo
man—er—l should think you might get
used to It grow to like it. Man's good
angel, you know, and all that!"
"Hut what if one wearies of the role
of good angel what 11' one longs to be
Just oneself? For my part, I don't
see why man shouldn't be woman's
good angel for awhile—he's so strong
and brave and, above all, superior!"
Her voice was deceptively mocking.
Heing only a man, and a man In tho
dark at that, he had no way of know
ing that her eyes wero dancing mis
chievously and she was wondering if
he were horribly shocked. What he
did know, however, was that the voice,
with its youthful, almost boyish treble,
was the sweetest In the world to him,
that he would rather be mocked and
flounted by those lips than flattered by
any others. Still he had a point to
prove, and he tossed the dwindled ci
gar oil into the bushes that flanked the
porch, squared his shoulders aggres
sively and demanded:
"Would you propose to a man if— i
er—you loved him?"
Ills listener gasped. This was car- j
rying the war into the enemy's country j
with u vengeance. Propose to a man ■
she loved! Not for rubles and dla- ;
monds not for principalities and pow- ;
ers! One might propose to a man one j
didn't love, but to the man—never!
"No," came the answer in a voice j
grown suddenly small and meek.
"And she talks about wanting a i
man's rights!" he groaned to some In
visible person. "And she hasn't the
nerve to do a little thing like that. '
My, oh, my!
"I'm afraid you'll have to stay in the j
good angel business awhile yet until, |
for instance, you can stand up and tell ;
a man you love him. I don't see any
other way."
There was a pause, in which he wait
ed for her to speak, but she said noth
lug. Then he leaned forward, and in
the gloom she could see the shining of
li .s eyes. He, too, miist have seen
some secret thing In her face, for, with
a laugh soft, exultant—he took her
hands in his and pressed them fervent
ly to his Hps.
"You are such funny, helpless, ridlc
ulously superior creatures," were her
last words upon the subject a little
later, "that 1 suppose It will have to
be.—yes."

WHISTLER'S MONOGRAM
Other Arltnts Have Adopted IJueer
I»«-\For Signature*.
The mystic emblem or device of a
sort of Whist Icrized butterfly was
adopted In the sixties by the escentrlc
genius, James Abbott Whistler, who,
without any known reason, changed
his name later to James MacNeili
Whistler
<'lose study will reveal that this pe
culiar scroll is really a monogram of
J. W The earliest of the etchings to
bear the butterfly Is "Chelsea Wharf"
(1803), but many paintings and etch
Ings after that date are signed "Whist
ler."
Artists have sometimes signed their
pictures In some distinct form In
stead of their names it generally was
done when the name might suggest
some emblem or symbol
Thus Hieronymus Cock demarked
two lighting cocks on his panels;
Mariotto Albertinelli signed a cross
with two Interlaced rings, referring to
the sacerdotal duties to which nt one
time of ids life he devoted himself;
Martin Ilota, a wheel; Meter de Ryng,
a ring with a diamond; Giovanni Dos
si, a bone, Dei Muzo Martinez, a ham
mer; Lionello ispada, a sword.
Sometimes caprice dictated the selec
tlon, as when Jacopo de Barber I used
the caducous, or Mercury rod; ii end rift
de IMcs, an owl; Lucas Cranach, a
crowned serpent; Cornelius Engel
breehtsen, a peculiar device resem
bling a weather vane, and Hans Hol

SYDNEY SMITH.
An it Coiintrj I'ar.non itntl hn a I'enoft*
makiiiu >i>m i*t rate.
For twenty years Sydney Smith re
mained In Yorkshii'i . and, though his
ideas of clerical dutj were not those
of today, yet it will n i lie denied that
he was a vigorous < >untry parson, en
tering Into the pursuit- arid the daily
life of his humble neighbors and doing
l£s utmost to improve their lot. Ills
descriptions of his life and surround
ings at Fusion are among the most de
lightful of his humorous writings Ev
ery one has heard of Annie Kay, the
little country s_;rl, "i tde like a mile
stone," who, christened Bunch, "bo
came the best butler in the county;"
of tho rawboned riding horse Calamity,
which "thing me over his head into a
neighboring parish as if I had been a
s'lUttiiHOck, and I feel grateful that, it
was not into ii neighboring planet;" of
tin ancient green chariot named the
Immortal. " t which the village boys
cheered and the village dogs burked;"
of four rlraft oxen—Tug and Lug,
Ilaui and Crawl of which "Tug and
Lug to k to fainting and required
buckets of --al volatile and Haul and
Crawl to lie down in the mild." As a
magistrate S ;ney Smith became fa
mous for making up local quarrels and
for de;.':. g gently with poachers. The
game law like a good Whig, he could
not al'iiie, and it stirred Ills honest
! wrath to reflect that "for every ten
! pile: isants which fluttered in the wood
one English peasant was rotting in
jail." Like Charles Kingsloy at Evern
ley in after sears, he refrained from
shooting "If you shoot," he said, "the
squire and the poacher will both con
sider you as their natural enemies, and
I thought it more clerical to be at peace
with both."—llev Canon Vauglian In
LonKmau'"
, Hotter Than III* Own.
They were discussing the factors
which make for success in the world
when the knowing young man said:
"There's nothing like force of char
acter. Now, there's Jones! Sure to
make his way in the world. He's a
will of his own, you know."
"But Brow n has something better in
his favor."
"What's that?"
i "A will of his uncle's."
Down «»II III* L.nvir.
"Oh, John." she exclaimed ns she
observed him getting into his over
coat. "I hope you're not going to be
out again tonight!"
"I hope not," he replied absentmind
edly, "but it's quite likely Ihe cards
have been running very badly form«
lately." Philadelphia Ledger
